The directors of AngloGold Ashanti Limited (Registration Number 1944/017354/06) declared Dividend No. 115 for the quarter ended 30 September 2012 as detailed below. In terms of the withholding tax on dividends which became effective on 1 April 2012, the following additional information is disclosed:

In compliance with the requirements of Strate, given the companys primary listing on the JSE, the salient dates for payment of the dividend are as follows:

To holders of ordinary shares and to holders of CHESS Depositary Interests (CDIs)
Each CDI represents one-fifth of an ordinary share.

On the payment date, dividends due to holders of certificated securities on the South African and United Kingdom share registers will be electronically transferred to shareholders bank accounts. Given the increasing incidences of fraud with respect to cheque payments, the company has ceased the payment of dividends by way of cheque. Shareholders are requested to notify the relevant share registrars with banking details to enable future dividends to be paid via electronic funds transfer. Refer to the back cover for share registrar details.

Dividends in respect of dematerialised shareholdings will be credited to shareholders' accounts with the relevant CSDP or broker.

To comply with further requirements of Strate, between Monday, 26 November and Friday, 30 November 2012, both days inclusive, no transfers between the South African, United Kingdom, Australian and Ghana share registers will be permitted and no ordinary shares pertaining to the South African share register may be dematerialised or rematerialised.

To holders of American Depositary Shares

To holders of Ghanaian Depositary Shares (GhDSs)
100 GhDSs represent one ordinary share.

Assuming an exchange rate of R4.5840/GHC, the gross dividend payable per share, which is subject to a 15% South African withholding tax, is equivalent to GHC0.1091. However, the actual rate of payment will depend on the exchange rate on the date for currency conversion.
