NEWS RELEASE

WORKING GROUP STATEMENT: Settlement of the Silicosis and TB class action

Johannesburg, 3 May 2018
- Richard Spoor Inc, Abrahams Kiewitz Inc and the Legal
Resources Centre – representing claimants in the silicosis and tuberculosis class action
litigation - and the Occupational Lung Disease Working Group - representing African
Rainbow Minerals, Anglo American SA, AngloGold Ashanti, Gold Fields, Harmony and
Sibanye-Stillwater – are pleased to announce that they have reached a settlement in this
matter. For full announcement, visit
www.oldcollab.co.za.

The companies last year announced amounts that each has provided for, as the estimated
cost to each of the settlement, based on actuarial assessments. These amounts total
approximately R5 billion. As the Working Group statement indicates, the agreement is still
subject to ratification by the High Court.

We look forward to the successful conclusion of that process. Once that and certain other
conditions precedent are concluded, it will be possible fully to withdraw the appeal in the
Supreme Court of Appeal of the Johannesburg High Court’s class certification judgment
delivered in May 2016.

AngloGold Ashanti welcomes the settlement which represents a fair outcome for claimants
and a sustainable outcome for the companies.
