Notes

  1. This amount is the aggregate of the final dividend of 118 US$ cents per ordinary share and the special dividend of 50 US$ cents per ordinary share.
  2. This amount is the aggregate of the final dividend of 1769.72860 Rand cents per ordinary share and the special dividend of 749.88500 Rand cents per ordinary share.
  3. Shareholders on the UK register of members with an address in the UK will be paid in Sterling and those with an address in a country in the European Union which has adopted the Euro will be paid in Euros. Such shareholders may, however, elect to be paid their dividends in US dollars provided the UK Registrars receive such election by Friday, 1 April 2022. Shareholders with an address elsewhere will be paid in US dollars except those registered on the South African branch register who will be paid in South African rand.
  4. Dividend Tax will be withheld from the amount of the gross final dividend of 1769.72860 Rand cents per ordinary share and the gross special dividend of 749.88500 Rand cents per ordinary share, paid to South African shareholders at the rate of 20% unless a shareholder qualifies for exemption. After the Dividend Tax has been withheld, the net final dividend will be 1415.78288 Rand cents per ordinary share and the net special dividend will be 599.90800 Rand cents per ordinary share. Anglo American plc had a total of 1,337,577,913 ordinary shares in issue as at Wednesday, 23 February 2022. In South Africa the dividend will be distributed by Anglo American South Africa Proprietary Limited, a South African company with tax registration number 9030010608, or one of its South African subsidiaries, in accordance with the Company's dividend access share arrangements. The final and special dividends in South African rand are based on an exchange rate of US$14.99770 taken on Wednesday, 23 February 2022, being the currency conversion date.
  5. Dematerialisation and rematerialisation of registered share certificates in South Africa will not be effected by CSDPs during the period from the JSE exdividend date to the record date (both days inclusive).
  6. Those shareholders who already participate in the DRIP need not complete a DRIP mandate form for each dividend as such forms provide an ongoing authority to participate in the DRIP until cancelled in writing. Shareholders who wish to participate in the DRIP should obtain a mandate form from the UK Registrars, the South African Transfer Secretaries or, in the case of those who hold their shares through the STRATE system, their CSDP.
  7. In terms of the DRIP, and subject to the purchase of shares in the open market, share certificates/CREST notifications are expected to be mailed and CSDP investor accounts credited/updated on or around Tuesday, 10 May 2022. CREST accounts will be credited on Friday, 29 April 2022.
  8. Copies of the terms and conditions of the DRIP are available from the UK Registrars or the South African Transfer Secretaries.
  9. The US$:£/€ conversion rates will be determined by the actual rates achieved by Anglo American buying forward contracts for those currencies, during the two days preceding the announcement of the conversion rates, for delivery on the dividend payment date.
