Certain statements contained in this document, other than statements of historical fact, including, without limitation, those
concerning the economic outlook for the gold mining industry, expectations regarding gold prices, production, cash costs, all-in
sustaining costs, all-in costs, cost savings and other operating results, return on equity, productivity improvements, growth
prospects and outlook of AngloGold Ashanti’s operations, individually or in the aggregate, including the achievement of project
milestones, commencement and completion of commercial operations of certain of AngloGold Ashanti’s exploration and production
projects and the completion of acquisitions, dispositions or joint venture transactions, AngloGold Ashanti’s liquidity and capital
resources and capital expenditures and the outcome and consequence of any potential or pending litigation or regulatory
proceedings or environmental health and safety issues, are forward-looking statements regarding AngloGold Ashanti’s operations,
economic performance and financial condition. These forward-looking statements or forecasts involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors that may cause AngloGold Ashanti’s actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially
from the anticipated results, performance or achievements expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements. Although
AngloGold Ashanti believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements and forecasts are reasonable, no
assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Accordingly, results could differ materially from
those set out in the forward-looking statements as a result of, among other factors, changes in economic, social and political and
market conditions, the success of business and operating initiatives, changes in the regulatory environment and other government
actions, including environmental approvals, fluctuations in gold prices and exchange rates, the outcome of pending or future
litigation proceedings, and business and operational risk management. For a discussion of such risk factors, refer to AngloGold
Ashanti’s annual report on Form 20-F filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These factors are
not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause AngloGold Ashanti’s actual results to differ materially from those
expressed in any forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors could also have material adverse effects on
future results. Consequently, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. AngloGold Ashanti
