In respect of Resolution 3 (Election of Marcelo Bastos), the Company plans to consult with
shareholders to understand the reasons behind the result and intends to continue its engagement
with shareholders in relation to the composition of the Board. Anglo American has a formal, rigorous
and transparent procedure to ensure the Board has the appropriate mix of skills, experience and
knowledge that reflect the breadth of its business.

In respect of Resolution 18 (Disapplication of pre-emption rights), the authority sought by the
Company is aligned with the Investment Association's share capital guidelines and market practice for
FTSE listed companies. However, Anglo American is mindful of the concerns expressed by a number
of its South African shareholders which has led to Resolution 18 not receiving the same high level of
support compared to previous years. The Company will engage with its South African shareholders to
clarify their concerns.

This announcement will be available for viewing on the Company's website, www.angloamerican.com,
as soon as practicable.

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, a copy of all resolutions passed, other than resolutions
concerning ordinary business, have been submitted to the UK Listing Authority via the National
Storage Mechanism and are available for inspection at www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/nsm.
