Notes:

1.     Shareholders on the United Kingdom register of members with an address in the United Kingdom
will be paid in pounds 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 Registrar receives such election by Friday 19 August 2005.
Shareholders with an address elsewhere (except in South Africa) will be paid in US dollars. The
equivalent of the dividend in sterling will be 15.8508 pence per ordinary share based on an exchange
rate of US$1 = £0.5661.  The equivalent of the dividend in euros will be 22.9124 euro cents per
ordinary share based on an exchange rate of US$1 = €0.8183.

2.     Shareholders on the South African branch register will be paid in South African Rand at R1.8346
per ordinary share based on an exchange rate of US$1 = R6.5522.

3.        Dematerialisation and rematerialisation of registered share certificates in South Africa
will not be effected by CSDPs during the period Monday 15 August 2005 to Friday 19 August 2005 (both
days inclusive).

4.        Those shareholders who already participate in the DRIP need not complete a DRIP mandate form
for each dividend as such forms provide an on-going 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.

5.        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 Tuesday 4 October 2005.

6.        Copies of the terms and conditions of the DRIP are available from the UK Registrars or the
South African Transfer Secretaries.

Pro forma IAS 32 and IAS 39 financial information

Pro forma IFRS consolidated income statements including the effects of applying
IAS 32 and 39 for the period ended 30 June 2004 and the year ended 31 December
2004 and balance sheet for the period ended 30 June 2004 have been provided
below.  The full adoption of both these standards was not mandatory until
January 2005. The restated opening balance sheet as at 1 January 2005 is
presented in note 24 to this report.

The basis of presentation of these pro forma results is that IAS 32 and 39 have
not been applied to 2004 transactions within entities that were fully disposed
of in 2004, or to contracts containing embedded derivatives that no longer
existed as at 1 January 2005. In accordance with the transition rules applicable
for first-time adopters, documentation and effectiveness calculations required
for hedge accounting were put in place as at 1 January 2005. Where hedge
accounting has been applied with effect from 1 January 2005, 2004 pro forma
financial information has been stated on the same basis as if necessary
documentation had been in place.

AngloGold Ashanti, a Rand functional currency entity, issued a US dollar
convertible bond in February 2004.  The pro forma financial information
classifies the equity conversion option within this debt as a derivative within
liabilities, marked to market through the income statement.  This is in
accordance with the recent clarification of IAS 32 by IFRIC.
