ANGLOGOLD ASHANTI LIMITED
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
MARCH 31, 2007
Prepared in accordance with US GAAP
Note A. Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
("US GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended
March 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2007.
The balance sheet as at December 31, 2006 has been derived from the audited financial statements
at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for
complete financial statements.
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included
in the Company’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Note B. Accounting developments
Recently adopted pronouncements
Income taxes
The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48,
“Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”) on January 1, 2007.
Resulting from the implementation of FIN 48, the Company recognized a $25 million increase in its
net liability for unrecognized income tax benefits. In addition, the Company reclassified $109 million
of income tax liabilities from current to Other non-current liabilities as of March 31, 2007, as payment
of cash is not anticipated within one year of the balance sheet date.
As at January 1, 2007, the Company had $84 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits and the
Company recorded an opening adjustment of $25 million against opening retained income as a result
of adopting FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. The total tax provision as of January 1, 2007 (including
interest accrued of $28 million) was $173 million. Of this, $109 million represents the amount of net
unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the Company’s effective income tax rate.
The Company’s continuing practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax
benefits as part of its income tax expense.
During the first quarter of 2007 the Company increased its accrual for interest by $2 million.
The Company operates in numerous countries around the world and accordingly is subject to, and
pays annual income taxes under, the various income tax regimes in the countries in which it
operates. Some of these tax regimes are defined by contractual agreements with local government,
and others are defined by the general corporate income tax laws of the country. The Company has
historically filed, and continues to file, all required income tax returns and to pay the taxes reasonably
determined to be due. The tax rules and regulations in many countries are highly complex and
subject to interpretation. From time to time, the Company is subject to a review of its historic income
tax filings and in connection with such reviews, disputes can arise with the taxing authorities over the
interpretation or application of certain rules to the Company’s business conducted within the country
involved.
As at March 31, 2007, all the Company’s South African tax filings remain open to scrutiny of the
South African Revenue Service. As at March 31, 2007, in South Africa, the Company’s assessments
due from the tax authorities for 2002 and all subsequent years have yet to be received. It is possible
that the Company will receive assessments during the next twelve months, which may have an effect
on uncertain tax positions.
In all other jurisdictions, the revenue system is based on a self-assessment process, all tax filings
due by March 31, 2007 have been filed, and the self-assessed position recorded in the consolidated
financial statements. The legislation of individual jurisdictions provides for different periods for the
authorities to review the filings with specified expiry dates. In Tanzania, audits have been
undertaken for the years 2000 – 2003, whilst the audits for subsequent years are still in process. The
Company is disputing some of the adjustments for the years 2000 – 2003. Based on current legal
advice, the Company does not expect the resolution will significantly affect the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.
Accounting for planned major maintenance activities
The Company adopted the FASB’s Staff Position (FSP) No. AUG AIR-1, "Accounting for Planned
Major Maintenance Activities" (“FSPAIR-1”) on January 1, 2007. FSPAIR-1 eliminates the accrue-in-
advance method of accounting for planned major maintenance activities from the AICPA Audit and
Accounting Guide, Audits of Airlines and the guidance is applicable to entities in all industries. As a
result of the elimination of the accrue-in-advance method, the Airline Guide currently permits the use
of one of the following three remaining methods: (1) direct expensing, (2) built-in overhaul, and (3)
deferral.

ANGLOGOLD ASHANTI LIMITED
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,
2007
Prepared in accordance with US GAAP
Note B. Accounting developments (continued)
Recently adopted pronouncements (continued)
Of the three methods of accounting for planned major maintenance allowed by FSPAIR-1, the
Company adopted the built-in overhaul method from January 1, 2007. The built-in overhaul method
is based on segregation of plant and equipment costs into those that should be depreciated over the
useful life of the asset and those that require overhaul at periodic intervals. Thus, the estimated cost
of the overhaul component included in the purchase price of an asset is set up separately from the
cost of the asset and is amortized to the date of the initial overhaul. The cost of the initial overhaul is
then capitalized and amortized to the next overhaul, at which time the process is repeated. The
adoption of FSPAIR-1 did not have a material impact on the Company’s earnings and financial
position.
Recently issued pronouncements
Fair value option for financial assets and liabilities
In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS159”). SFAS159 permits entities to choose to measure many
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value, with the objective of improving financial
reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused
by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge
accounting provisions. The provisions of SFAS159 are effective for the Company’s year ending
December 31, 2008. The Company is currently reviewing the guidance issued in SFAS159 and has
not yet determined the impact of this on the financial statements.
Employers’ accounting for defined benefit pension and other post-retirement plans
In September 2006 the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158,
“Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Post-retirement Plans, an
amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)” (“SFAS158”). The recognition and
disclosure requirements of SFAS158 adopted by the Company had no material impact as of
December 31, 2006, while the measurement requirements of SFAS158, which are effective for fiscal
years ending December 31, 2008, requires an entity to measure a defined benefit post-retirement
plan's assets and obligations that determine its funded status as of the same day of the employer's
fiscal year-end statement of financial position. The Company is currently considering processes to
meet these measurement requirements of SFAS158.
Fair value measurements
In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”
(“SFAS157”). SFAS157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in
generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurement.
The provisions of SFAS157 are effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2008.
The Company is currently reviewing the guidance issued in SFAS157 and has not yet determined
the impact of this on the financial statements.

Note D. Long-term debt
During the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company repaid $10 million and drew down
$15 million under the $700 million unsecured syndicated loan facility (due January 2008) and repaid
$7 million under its mainly Ghanaian Cedi-based bank overdraft. These amounts were funded from
cash flow from operations. As at March 31, 2007, $185 million was drawn under the $700 million loan
facility and the total amount included in short-term debt under this facility amounted to $187 million.
Note E. Provision for environmental rehabilitation
Long-term environmental obligations comprising decommissioning and restoration are based on the
Company’s environmental management plans, in compliance with the current environmental and
regulatory requirements.

Certain amounts have been contributed to a rehabilitation trust and environmental protection bond
under the Company's control. The monies in the trust and bond are invested primarily in interest
bearing debt securities and are included in Other long-term assets in the Company’s consolidated
balance sheet. Cash balances held in the trust and bond are classified as restricted cash in the
Company’s consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. As at March 31, 2007 and
December 31, 2006 the balances held in the trust and bond (cash and investments) amounted to
$86 million and $91 million, respectively. Besides these assets there were no other assets that were
legally restricted for purposes of settling asset retirement obligations as at March 31, 2007.
Note F. Profit on sale of assets, loans and indirect taxes
In the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company recorded a profit on sale of assets of
$4 million (before taxation of $1 million) relating mainly to the disposal of minor assets in South
America, the recovery of loans written off and proceeds received on the sale of Central African Gold
Plc (CAG) shares arising from the sale of Bibiani (concluded in December 2006). The profit on sale
of assets of $4 million (before taxation of $nil million) recorded in the three months ended
March 31, 2006 mainly related to the disposal of minor equipment and assets in South America and
a reassessment of indirect taxes in Guinea.
Note G. Taxation
A net taxation expense of $40 million was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2007
compared to a net benefit of $8 million in the same period in 2006. Net taxation expense for the three
months ended March 31, 2007 was 114 percent of income/(loss) before tax compared to 4 percent
for the same period in 2006. The three months ended March 31, 2006 benefited from deferred tax
credits of $33 million on unrealized non-hedge derivative losses, compared to similar tax credits of
$11 million in the same period in 2007. Charges for current tax in the three months ended
March 31, 2007 amounted to $61 million compared to $25 million in the same period in 2006
reflecting mainly the impact of the South African tax formula to the increase in the earnings of the
operations in that country.
Note H. Discontinued operations
The Ergo reclamation surface operation, which forms part of the South African operations and is
included under South Africa for segmental reporting, has been discontinued as the operation has
reached the end of its useful life and the assets are no longer in use. After a detailed investigation of
several options and scenarios, and based on management’s decision reached on February 1, 2005,
mining operations at Ergo ceased on March 31, 2005 with only site restoration obligations remaining.
The results of Ergo for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, are summarized as
follows:

Note J. Segment information
The Company produces gold as its primary product and does not have distinct divisional segments in
terms of principal business activity, but manages its business on the basis of different geographic
segments. During 2007, the Company changed the method of allocating hedging to individual mines. In
prior periods, forward contracts were allocated to each reporting segment, based on the then prevailing
contractual relationship with the counterparty. Following the removal of certain counterparty restrictions
and the granting of group level guarantees during 2006, the Company has applied an average received
gold price across all reporting segments. The average received gold price for each mine is thus similar to
the Company’s average received gold price which includes realized gains/losses on non-hedge derivatives.
Where applicable, the corresponding items of segment information for all earlier periods presented have
been restated to reflect this. This information is consistent with the information used by the Company’s
chief operating decision maker in evaluating operating performance of, and making resource allocation
decisions among operations.

Note O. Commitments and contingencies
Capital expenditure commitments
Capital commitments and contingent liabilities of the Company include total contracted capital
expenditure of $554 million and total authorized capital expenditure not yet contracted of approximately
$496 million as of March 31, 2007. The expenditure is expected to be financed from existing cash
resources, cash generated by operations and debt facilities.
South Africa – water pumping costs
The Company is involved in a legal dispute regarding the responsibility for water pumping of the
Margaret shaft which belongs to Stilfontein. Following an attempt by DRDGold Limited to liquidate its
North West operations and avoid incurring pumping cost, the Company launched an urgent application
against DRDGold Limited and government departments requesting the court to order the continued
pumping of water at the Stilfontein Mines. The cessation of water pumping is likely to cause flooding in
various of the Company’s Vaal River operations. The Department of Water Affairs and Forestry
responded by issuing directives to the mining companies directing that they share the costs of pumping
at the Margaret Shaft.
The three mining companies, Simmer and Jack Mines Limited, Harmony Gold Mining Company
Limited and AngloGold Ashanti Limited, are finalizing an arrangement in which responsibility for the
water pumping will be transferred to an independent newly formed company. The Company’s
responsibility will be limited to providing one-third of the start-up capital on loan account and the three
mining companies will be members of the newly formed company. The operational cost will be
apportioned to the three parties.
Should the proposed arrangement not be acceptable to the courts and/or the regulatory authorities, the
proposal may have to be amended. Due to this uncertainty, no estimate is made of any potential
liabilities.

Note O. Commitments and contingencies (continued)
South Africa – groundwater pollution
The Company has identified a number of groundwater pollution sites at its current operations in South
Africa and has investigated a number of different technologies and methodologies that could possibly be
used to remediate the pollution plumes. The viability of the suggested remediation techniques in the local
geologic formation in South Africa is however unknown. No sites have been remediated and present
research and development work is focused on several pilot projects to find a solution that will in fact yield
satisfactory results in South African conditions. Subject to the technology being developed as a
remediation technique, no reliable estimate can be made for the obligation.
Brazil – sales tax on gold deliveries
Mineração Serra Grande S.A. (MSG), the operator of the Crixas mine in Brazil, has received two tax
assessments from the State of Goiás related to payments of sales taxes on gold deliveries for export
namely, one assessment for the period between February 2004 and June 2005 and the other for the
period between July 2005 and May 2006. The tax authorities maintain that whenever a taxpayer exports
gold mined in the State of Goiás through a branch located in a different Brazilian state, it must obtain an
authorization from the Goiás State Treasury by means of a Special Regime Agreement (Termo de
Acordo re Regime Especial – TARE
). The Serra Grande operation is co-owned with Kinross Gold
Corporation. The Company’s attributable share of the first assessment is approximately $33 million.
Although MSG requested the TARE in early 2004, the TARE, which authorized the remittance of gold to
the Company’s branch in Minas Gerais specifically for export purposes, was only granted and executed
in May 2006. In November 2006 the administrative council’s second chamber ruled in favor of Serra
Grande and fully canceled the tax liability related to the first period. The State of Goiás has appealed to
the full board of the State of Goiás tax administrative council. The second assessment was issued by
the State of Goiás in October 2006 on the same grounds as the first assessment, and the Company’s
attributable share of the assessment is approximately $20 million. The Company believes both
assessments are in violation of federal legislation on sales taxes.
Brazil – VAT dispute
Morro Velho is involved in a dispute with tax authorities, as a result of an erroneous duplication of a
shipping invoice between two states in Brazil, tax authorities are claiming that VAT is payable on the
second invoice. The amount involved is approximately $5 million.
Brazil – VAT dispute
Mineração Serra Grande S.A. received a tax assessment in October 2003 from the State of Minas
Gerais related to sales taxes on gold allegedly returned from the branch in Minas Gerais to the company
head office in the State of Goiás. The tax administrators rejected the Company’s appeal against the
assessment. The Company is now appealing the dismissal of the case at the judicial sphere. The
Company’s attributable share of the assessment is approximately $6 million.
AngloGold Offshore Investments Limited – Nufcor International Limited loan facility
AngloGold Offshore Investments Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, has guaranteed
50 percent of the Nufcor International Limited loan facility with FirstRand (Ireland) plc (formerly RMB
International (Dublin) Limited) amounting to $40 million. Nufcor International Limited is accounted for
under the equity method.
South Africa – provision of surety
The Company has provided surety in favor of the lender in respect of gold loan facilities to wholly owned
subsidiaries of Oro Group (Proprietary) Limited an affiliate of the Company. The Company has a total
maximum liability, in terms of the suretyships, of R100 million ($14 million). The suretyship agreements
have a termination notice period of 90 days. The probability of the non-performance under the
suretyships is considered minimal, based on factors of no prior defaults, being well-established
companies and recourse via general notarial bonds over the gold stocks of the subsidiaries of the Oro
Group. These bonds should enable the Company to recover the majority of the guaranteed amount. The
Company receives a fee from the associate for providing the surety and has assessed the possibility of a
claim for non-performance.
North America – reclamation
Pursuant to US environmental regulations, gold mining companies are obligated to close their operations
and rehabilitate the lands that they mine in accordance with these regulations. AngloGold Ashanti USA
has posted reclamation bonds with various federal and state governmental agencies to cover potential
rehabilitation obligations in amounts aggregating approximately $50 million.
The Company has provided a guarantee for these obligations which would be payable in the event of
AngloGold Ashanti USA not being able to meet their rehabilitation obligations. As at March 31, 2007 the
carrying value of these obligations relating to AngloGold Ashanti USA amounted to $26 million and are
included in the Provision for environmental rehabilitation in the Company's consolidated balance sheet.
The obligations will expire upon completion of such rehabilitation. There are no recourse provisions that
would enable AngloGold Ashanti to recover from third parties any of the amounts paid under the
guarantee.
Guarantee for convertible bond
The Company has guaranteed all payments and other obligations of AngloGold Ashanti Holdings plc
regarding the issued $1,000,000,000 2.375 percent convertible bonds due 2009. The Company’s
obligations regarding the guarantee are direct, unconditional and unsubordinated.

Guarantee for syndicated loan facility
AngloGold Ashanti Limited, AngloGold Offshore Investments Limited and AngloGold American
Investments Limited have guaranteed all payments and other obligations of the wholly-owned
subsidiaries AngloGold Ashanti Holdings plc and AngloGold Ashanti USA Inc. regarding the $700 million
syndicated loan facility. The total amount outstanding under this facility as of March 31, 2007 amounted
to $187 million.
North and South America delivery guarantees
The Company has issued gold delivery guarantees to several counterparty banks in which it guarantees
the due performance of its subsidiaries AngloGold Ashanti USA Inc., AngloGold South America Limited
and Cerro Vanguardia S.A. under their respective gold hedging agreements.
Ashanti Treasury Services – guarantees
The Company together with its wholly-owned subsidiary AngloGold Ashanti Holdings plc have provided
guarantees to several counterpart banks for the hedging commitments of its wholly-owned subsidiary
Ashanti Treasury Services Limited (ATS). The maximum potential amount of future payments is all
moneys due, owing or incurred by ATS under or pursuant to the Hedging Agreements. At
March 31, 2007 the marked-to-market valuation of the ATS hedge book was negative $1,088 million.
Geita hedge guarantee
The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary AngloGold Ashanti Holdings plc have issued hedging
guarantees to several counterpart banks in which they have guaranteed the due performance by the
GMC of its obligations under or pursuant to the hedging agreements entered into by GMC, and to the
payment of all money owing or incurred by GMC as and when due. This guarantee remains in force until
no sum remains to be paid under the Hedging Agreements and the Bank has irrevocably recovered or
received all sums payable to it under the Hedging Agreements. The maximum potential amount of future
payments is all moneys due, owing or incurred by GMC under or pursuant to the Hedging Agreements.
At March 31, 2007 the marked-to-market valuation of the GMC hedge book was negative $305 million.
In addition to the above, the Company has contingent liabilities in respect of certain claims, disputes and
guarantees which are not considered to be material.
Taxation
With operations in several countries on several continents, many of which are emerging markets,
AngloGold Ashanti is subject to, and pays annual taxes under the various tax regimes where it operates.
Some of these tax regimes are defined by contractual agreements with the local government, but others
are defined by the general corporate tax laws of the country. The Company has historically filed, and
continues to file, all required tax returns and to pay the taxes reasonably determined to be due. In some
jurisdictions, tax authorities are yet to complete their assessments for previous years. The tax rules and
regulations in many countries are complex and subject to interpretation. From time to time the Company
is subject to a review of its historic tax filings and in connection with such reviews, disputes can arise
with the taxing authorities over the interpretation or application of certain rules to the Company’s
business conducted within the country involved. Management believes based on information currently to
hand, that such tax contingencies have been adequately provided for, and as assessments are
completed, the Company will make appropriate adjustments to those estimates used in determining
amounts due.
Registration rights agreement
On March 23, 2006 the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with Anglo South Africa
Capital (Proprietary) Limited (Anglo South Africa) under which the Company has agreed to file U.S.
registration statements for Anglo South Africa’s offer and sale of shares it holds in the Company (each a
Demand Registration) if Anglo South Africa requests the Company to do so. The Company is required to
use all reasonable efforts to file a Demand Registration within 30 days after such a request and to keep it
effective for 90 days unless the shares offered pursuant to it are sold earlier. Further, the Company may
not offer, sell, allot or issue any shares or other securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for,
or that represent the right to receive, shares, whether pursuant to U.S. registration or otherwise, for a 90-
day period immediately following the first closing of an offering pursuant to a Demand Registration or a
shorter period as may be imposed by underwriters in the Demand Registration; except: (i) in
consideration for shares or assets of a company as part of a merger, acquisition, corporate
reorganization or similar transaction, (ii) as required pursuant to the terms governing the 2.375 percent
guaranteed convertible bonds due 2009, issued by AngloGold Ashanti Holdings plc and guaranteed by
the Company, and (iii) in connection with any option, employee bonus, profit sharing, pension,
retirement, incentive, savings or similar plan, agreement or award. The Registration Rights Agreement
may be terminated at any time by written consent by each of the parties thereto. The Registration Rights
Agreement shall terminate automatically on the first date on which Anglo South Africa is no longer an
“affiliate” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Vulnerability from concentrations
There is a concentration of risk in respect of reimbursable value added tax and fuel duties from the
Malian government. Reimbursable value added tax due from the Malian government to the Company
amounts to $37 million at March 31, 2007 (December 31, 2006: $34 million). The last audited value
added tax return was for the period ended December 31, 2006 and as at March 31, 2007, $27 million
was still outstanding and $10 million is still subject to audit. The accounting processes for the unaudited
amount are in accordance with the processes advised by the Malian government in terms of the previous
audits.

Note O. Commitments and contingencies (continued)
Reimbursable fuel duties from the Malian government to the Company amount to $10 million at
March 31, 2007 (December 31, 2006: $11 million). Fuel duty refund claims are required to be submitted
before January 31 of the following year and are subject to authorization by, firstly, the Department of
Mining, and secondly, the Customs and Excise authorities. As at March 31, 2007, the Customs and
Excise authorities have approved $3 million which is still outstanding, while $7 million is still subject to
authorization. The accounting processes for the unauthorized amount are in accordance with the
processes advised by the Malian government in terms of the previous authorizations. With effect from
February 2006, fuel duties are no longer payable to the Malian government.
The Government of Mali is a shareholder in all of the Company’s entities in Mali and protocol
agreements governing repayments of certain of these amounts have been signed. All payments as
scheduled in terms of the protocol agreements have been recovered up to March 2007. The amounts
outstanding have been discounted to their present value at a rate of 5 percent.
There is a concentration of risk in respect of reimbursable value added tax and fuel duties from the
Tanzanian government. Reimbursable value added tax due from the Tanzanian government to the
Company amounts to $15 million at March 31, 2007 (December 31, 2006: $14 million). The last audited
value added tax return was for the period ended November 30, 2006 and as at March 31, 2007
$14 million was still outstanding and $1 million is still subject to audit. The accounting processes for the
unaudited amount are in accordance with the processes advised by the Tanzanian government in terms
of the previous audits. The amounts outstanding have been discounted to their present value at a rate of
5 percent.
Reimbursable fuel duties from the Tanzanian government to the Company amount to $22 million at
March 31, 2007 (December 31, 2006: $18 million). Fuel duty claims are required to be submitted after
consumption of the related fuel and are subject to authorization by the Customs and Excise authorities.
As at March 31, 2007, claims for refund of fuel duties amounting to $13 million have been lodged with
the Customs and Excise authorities, which are still outstanding, whilst claims for refund of $9 million
have not yet been submitted. The accounting processes for the unauthorized amount are in accordance
with the processes advised by the Tanzanian government in terms of the previous authorizations. The
amounts outstanding have been discounted to their present value at a rate of 5 percent.
Note P. Declaration of dividends
On February 12, 2007 AngloGold Ashanti declared a final dividend of 240 South African cents
(32.384 US cents) per ordinary share for the year ended December 31, 2006 with a record date of
March 9, 2007 and payment dates of March 16, 2007 for holders of ordinary shares and CDIs,
March 19, 2007 for holders of GhDSs and March 26, 2007 for holders of ADSs. Each CDI represents
one-fifth of an ordinary share and 100 GhDSs represents one ordinary share. Each ADS represents one
ordinary share. In addition, on February 12, 2007 AngloGold Ashanti declared a dividend of 120 South
African cents (16 US cents) per E ordinary share, payable on March 16, 2007 to employees participating
in the Bokamoso ESOP and Izingwe Holdings (Proprietary) Limited. In addition to the cash dividend, an
amount equal to the dividend paid to holders of E ordinary shares will be offset when calculating the
strike price of E ordinary shares.
Note Q. Supplemental condensed consolidating financial information
With effect from October 1, 2004, AngloGold Ashanti has transferred certain of its operations and assets
located outside South Africa (excluding certain operations and assets in the United States, Australia and
Africa) to AngloGold Ashanti Holdings plc (originally SMI Holdings Limited and formerly AngloGold
Holdings plc) (“IOMco”), its wholly-owned subsidiary. IOMco is an Isle of Man registered company.
IOMco has issued debt securities which are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by AngloGold Ashanti
Limited (being the “Guarantor”). The following is condensed financial information of the registrant and
consolidating financial information for the Company as of March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 and

Issuer, AngloGold Ashanti Limited as Guarantor and the other businesses of the group combined (the
“Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”). For the purposes of the condensed consolidating financial information,
the Company carries its investments under the equity method.

REVIEW OF FINANCIAL AND OPERATING PERFORMANCE FOR THE THREE MONTHS
ENDED MARCH 31, 2007 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH US GAAP

of South Africa, references to US dollars, dollar or $ are to the lawful currency of the United States,
references to euro or € are to the lawful currency of the European Union, references to AUD dollars

Introduction
Operating results

AngloGold Ashanti’s revenues are derived primarily from the sale of gold produced at its mines. An
insignificant portion of its revenue is derived from the sales of silver, uranium oxide and sulfuric acid.
As a consequence, AngloGold Ashanti’s operating results are directly related to the price of gold which
can fluctuate widely and are also affected by numerous factors beyond its control, including industrial
and jewellery demand, the strength of the US dollar (the currency in which the price of gold is
generally quoted) and of other currencies, interest rates, actual or expected gold sales by central
banks, forward sales by producers, global or regional political or economic events, and production and
cost levels in major gold-producing regions such as South Africa.

As the amounts produced in any single year constitute a very small portion of the total potential supply
of gold, normal variations in AngloGold Ashanti’s current production do not necessarily have a
significant impact on the supply of gold or on its price. If revenue from gold sales falls for a substantial
period below AngloGold Ashanti’s cost of production at its operations, AngloGold Ashanti could
determine that it is not economically feasible to continue commercial production at any or all of its
operations nor to continue the development of some or all of its projects.
Impact of exchange rate fluctuations

During the first three months of 2007 the rand weakened against the US dollar by 4 percent (based on
the exchange rates of R7.00 and R7.30 per US dollar on January 1, 2007 and March 31, 2007,
respectively). In addition, when comparing the average exchange rates of the rand against the
US dollar of R7.22 and R6.15 during the first three months of 2007 and 2006, respectively, the value
of the rand lost 17 percent against the US dollar.

The weaker rand against the US dollar, which positively impacted on the profitability of AngloGold
Ashanti, was offset by an increase in the Australian dollar which strengthened by 6 percent against the
US dollar based on the average exchange rates of A$1.27 and A$1.35 per US dollar during the first
three months of 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Gold market

As in the fourth quarter of 2006, spot gold traded in a range of $87 per ounce during the first quarter of
2007, although at the significantly higher price levels of $602 per ounce to $689 per ounce versus
$561 per ounce to $649 per ounce in the fourth quarter of 2006. The spot price remained above the
$640 per ounce level from the end of January 2007 through most of the quarter, with only a slight dip
in early March 2007.
background image
22
The average spot price for the first quarter of 2007 of $650 per ounce represents an increase of
6 percent over that of the previous quarter and a 17 percent increase over the average price in the
same quarter in 2006.

The rand gold price maintained its strength from 2006, with a first quarter average of R150,686 per
kilogram. This marks a 5 percent increase on that of the previous quarter and is some 15 percent
higher than the 2006 average of R131,373 per kilogram.

Physical market

During the first quarter of 2007, gold showed little sign of sustained recovery in volume terms on the
consumption side. Italian exports are expected to be weak; with US consumption figures accordingly
lower. Middle Eastern and Asian consumers also appear to have been scared off by the gold price
increase towards the end of the first quarter, which has continued into the second quarter of 2007.
European consumption, however, did not appear to be affected and remained solid throughout the
quarter ended March 31, 2007. Despite the suppressive effect of a fairly consistent rise in the gold
price this quarter on consumption, the price increase has, on a positive note, also meant an increase
in the floor at which gold consumers enter the market to sell scrap.

Looking at the remainder of 2007, gold demand is expected to strengthen as consumers grow
accustomed to higher price levels. Fabrication demand continues to provide a firm base to the market
and there have already been signs of a recovery in jewellery demand when prices stabilize even in the
mid-$600 per ounce range. This seems due to the re-filling of a depleted supply pipeline, especially
after a somewhat stronger-than-expected fourth quarter of 2006, combined with the continued benefits
associated with robust economic growth in major markets such as India and China. Net official selling
is also anticipated to stay subdued as sales in 2006 were well below the official quotas of the Central
Bank Gold Agreement (CBGA) rules, while scrap supply is forecast to fall year-on-year as a major
stock clear-out seems unlikely to be repeated.

In North America, Valentine’s Day showed strong growth with some retailers reporting sales increases
of over 20 percent compared to prior years. In the USA, the largest department store retailer in gold
reported sales doubling on those of 2005, publicly stating that their unprecedented group marketing
initiative had significant consumer impact and was instrumental in the growth of gold jewellery sales.

Central bank sales

Speculation that the CBGA signatories are unlikely to fulfill their sales quotas for the remaining three
years of the Agreement was further enhanced this quarter by a report to the International Monetary
Fund (IMF) proposing the sale of 400 tonnes in order to meet an expected shortfall in IMF annual
revenue. The report recommends that potential sales not add to the announced volume of sales from
official sources as stipulated by the original CBGA, of which the IMF is a signatory, indicating that the
advisory group believes that the other signatories will continue to sell under their limit, making the IMF
sale a reasonable way to address its expected revenue shortfall.

In the current CBGA year (September 2006 to September 2007), signatories have sold approximately
6 million ounces, or 38 percent of the allowable annual total.

Investment market

Exchange traded gold holdings grew by nearly 6 percent in the first quarter of 2007, representing an
increase of 36 tonnes. World-wide investment in gold exchange traded funds (ETFs) reached
$14 billion by the end of March 2007, with two new ETF-like funds launched in India since the
beginning of the year. Investor interest in physical gold also remained strong, exemplified by sales of
the US Eagle and Buffalo coins by the US Mint equivalent to 129,500 ounces, up 4 percent on the
same period in 2006.

Producer hedging

The 2006 trend of producer de-hedging continued in the first quarter of 2007, with Gold Fields Limited
buying back the 1.2 million ounces Western Areas gold hedge and Lihir Gold Limited announcing both
the closure of its 934,500 ounce hedge book and the early repayment of an outstanding
480,000 ounces gold loan. While some new gold hedging is being undertaken by producers in
association with debt financing obligations, it seems likely that producers will remain net de-hedgers in
2007, which should at least be supportive of the gold price.

Currencies and gold

The rand depreciated nearly 4 percent over the first quarter, opening at R7.00/$ and finishing at
R7.30/$, while trading for most of the quarter in a relatively tight band of between R7.30/$ and
R7.10/$. In early March 2007, renewed fears of slower global growth saw a high-yield and emerging
market currencies sell-off, causing the rand to trade to an intra-quarter high of R7.54/$. These fears
proved short-lived, however, and the rand returned to trading below the R7.20/$ level.

Against the Euro, the US dollar has begun to display sustained weakness, trading below the
Euro/$1.36 level. This dollar weakness seems likely to persist as interest rate expectations between
the two currencies narrow, offering further support to the gold price.

Operating review

Presented in the table below is selected operating data for AngloGold Ashanti for the three months
ended March 31, 2007 and 2006. The operating data gives effect to acquisitions and dispositions as of

Gold production

For the three months ended March 31, 2007, AngloGold Ashanti’s total gold production decreased by
14,000 ounces, or about 1 percent, to 1.33 million ounces from 1.34 million ounces produced in the
same period in 2006. In South Africa, gold production decreased from 610,000 ounces produced in
the three months to March 31, 2006, to 567,000 ounces produced in the same period in 2007 due to
lower volume mined at TauTona arising from seismicity concerns, lower volume mined as a result of

24
reduced face advance at Great Noligwa and a slow start in 2007 at Kopanang as a result of the year-
end break. In Ghana, gold production decreased from 157,000 ounces produced in the three months
to March 31, 2006, to 128,000 ounces produced in the same period in 2007 due to the sale of Bibiani
completed in December 2006 and equipment constraints at Iduapriem. In Mali, gold production
decreased from 130,000 ounces produced in the three months to March 31, 2006, to 108,000 ounces
produced in the same period in 2007 due to lower recovered grades and volume mined at Morila and
lower recovered grades at Sadiola.

The decrease in gold produced over 2006 at most mines was partially offset by an increase in gold
production in Australia, Brazil and Guinea from 91,000 ounces, 73,000 ounces and 57,000 ounces,
respectively, produced in the three months to March 31, 2006, to 148,000 ounces, 90,000 ounces and
73,000 ounces produced, respectively, in the same period in 2007. This was mainly due to the mining
of high grade areas and the access to the high grade Western Shear zone ore supplementing
production at Sunrise Dam (in Australia) in 2007; at AngloGold Ashanti Brasil Mineração (in Brazil)
due to a planned production halt in first quarter of 2006 as part of an upgrade of the shaft and crusher
and, at Siguiri (in Guinea) due to problems experienced in 2006 with the ball mill negatively impacting
production.

In the quarter ended March 31, 2007, AngloGold Ashanti’s total gold production decreased by
143,000 ounces to 1.33 million ounces, or 10 percent from 1.47 million ounces produced during the
quarter ended December 31, 2006 mainly due fewer production shifts following the year-end break.

Capital expenditures

Total capital expenditure during the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $196 million compared
to $156 million in the same period in 2006. This $40 million, or 26 percent, increase is mainly
reflected in the $37 million increase in capital expenditure in the Australian region from $10 million
recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2006 to $47 million spent for the same period in 2007
on the Boddington expansion project.

Comparison of financial performance on a segment basis for the three months ended
March 31, 2007 and 2006
The Company produces gold as its primary product and does not have distinct divisional segments in
terms of principal business activity, but manages its business on the basis of different geographic
segments. During 2007, the Company changed the method of allocating hedging to individual mines.
In prior periods, forward contracts were allocated to each reporting segment, based on the then
prevailing contractual relationship with the counterparty. Following the removal of certain counterparty
restrictions and the granting of group level guarantees during 2006, the Company has applied an
average received gold price across all reporting segments. The average received gold price for each
mine is thus similar to the Company’s average received gold price which includes realized
gains/losses on non-hedge derivatives. Where applicable, the corresponding items of segment
information for all earlier periods presented have been restated to reflect this. This information is
consistent with the information used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker in evaluating
operating performance of, and making resource allocation decisions among operations.

Comparison of financial performance for the three months ended
March
31, 2007 and 2006
Revenues

Revenues from product sales and other income increased from $631 million in the first three months
of 2006 to $734 million in the same period of 2007, representing a 16 percent increase over the
period. This was due to the increase in the gold price in the first three months of 2007 as the average
spot price of gold was $650 per ounce during the three months ended March 31, 2007, $96 per ounce,
or 17 percent, higher than $554 per ounce, the average spot price of gold in the first three months of
2006, being offset by decreased production. The majority of product sales consisted of US dollar-
denominated gold sales.

Total revenues from the South African operations decreased marginally by $4 million to $348 million
over the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $352 million realized in the same period in 2006,
mainly as a result of a decrease in gold production, which more than offset the increase in gold price.

Total revenues derived from Australia, Brazil and Guinea increased to $88 million, $77 million and
$55 million, respectively, over the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $55 million, $50 million
and $38 million, respectively, realized in the same period of 2006 mainly as a result of the higher gold
price and increased gold production.

In Ghana, total revenues generated decreased by $10 million, or 11 percent, from $93 million realized
in the first three months of 2006 to $83 million in the same period in 2007, mainly reflecting the impact
of the sale of Bibiani which was concluded in December 2006.
Production costs

During the three months ended March 31, 2007, AngloGold Ashanti incurred production costs of
$418 million representing an increase of $26 million, or 7 percent, from $392 million recorded for the
same period of 2006.
background image
27
Production costs in AngloGold Ashanti’s operations in Ghana and Guinea, Brazil and Australia
operations increased from $76 million, $25 million and $32 million, respectively, in the first three
months of 2006 to $83 million, $37 million and $40 million, respectively, for the same period of 2007
mainly as a result of an increase in operational costs including labor, explosives and power and water
costs.
Exploration costs

Exploration costs increased from $12 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006 to $24 million
in the same period in 2007 mainly due to increased exploration activities at the Tropicana project in
Australia, regional and target generation activities in Colombia and continued drilling in the Mongbwalu
region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Related party transactions

Related party transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2007 amounted to a credit
(representing purchases by related parties) of $2 million compared with an expense (representing
purchases from related parties) of $7 million for the same period of 2006. The reduction was mainly
due to lower contract work generated by development activities and to transactions with subsidiaries
of Anglo American plc no longer disclosed, following the reduction of Anglo American plc’s
shareholding in AngloGold Ashanti to less than 50 percent interest held, as a result of the sale in the
public offering of some of its shares in AngloGold Ashanti which was completed in April 2006.
General and administrative

General and administrative expenses increased from $22 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2006 to $30 million in the same period in 2007, mainly due to increased stock
compensation expense recognized, bonus and annual salary increments.
Royalties

Royalties paid by AngloGold Ashanti increased from $11 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2006, to $18 million paid in the same period in 2007, mainly due to the higher gold price.
Royalties are mostly calculated based on a percentage of revenues and are payable primarily to local
governments.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization

Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense decreased by $26 million to $140 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2007 when compared to $166 million recorded in the same period in 2006.
This decrease was mainly due to decreases in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense in
South Africa and Ghana from $81 million and $31 million, respectively, incurred in the three months
ended March 31, 2006 to $59 million and $22 million, respectively, in the same period of 2007 mainly
as a result of a decrease in gold production and changes in estimated lives of assets.
Interest expense

Interest expense decreased by $9 million from $25 million recorded in the three months ended
March 31, 2006 to $16 million in the three months ended March 31, 2007 mainly due to a decrease in
bank borrowings.
background image
28
Accretion expense

Accretion expense of $4 million was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared
with $4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006. Accretion relates to the unwinding of
discounted future reclamation obligations to present values and increases the reclamation obligations
to its future estimated payout.
Employment severance costs

Employment severance costs decreased to $1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2007
from $2 million in the same period in 2006. Employment severance costs recorded for the three
months ended March 31, 2007 related to retrenchments in the South African region reflecting mainly
rationalization of operations at Great Noligwa, Kopanang, Tau Lekoa, TauTona and Mponeng.
Profit on sale of assets, loans and indirect taxes

In the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company recorded a profit on sale of assets of
$4 million (before taxation of $1 million) relating mainly to the disposal of minor assets in South
America, the recovery of loans written off and proceeds received on the sale of Central African Gold
Plc (CAG) shares arising from the sale of Bibiani (concluded in December 2006). The profit on sale of
assets of $4
million (before taxation of $nil million) recorded in the three months ended
March 31, 2006 mainly related to the disposal of minor equipment and assets in South America and a
reassessment of indirect taxes in Guinea.
Non-hedge derivative loss

A non-hedge derivative loss of $43 million was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2007
compared to a loss of $191 million in the same period of 2006 relating to the use of hedging
instruments. Non-hedge derivatives recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006
included:

Other operating costs and expenses

Other operating costs and expenses, consisting of provision for loss on future deliveries of other
commodities and unrealized loss on other commodity physical borrowings amounted to an expense of
$8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to a net credit of $3 million in the
same period in 2006, mainly due to an increase in the price of other commodity contracts.
Taxation expense/benefit

A net taxation expense of $40 million was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2007
compared to a net benefit of $8 million in the same period in 2006. Net taxation expense for the three
months ended March 31, 2007 was 114 percent of income/(loss) before tax compared to 4 percent for

the same period in 2006. The three months ended March 31, 2006 benefited from deferred tax credits
of $33 million on unrealized non-hedge derivative losses, compared to similar tax credits of $11 million
in the same period in 2007. Charges for current tax in the three months ended March 31, 2007
amounted to $61 million compared to $25 million in the same period in 2006 reflecting mainly the
impact of the South African tax formula to the increase in the earnings of the operations in that
country.
Equity income in affiliates

Equity income in affiliates decreased to $16 million in the three months ended March 31, 2007 from
$26 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006 mainly as a result of decreased earnings of
operations in Mali.
Discontinued operations

A loss of $1 million was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2007 due to the closure of the
Ergo operations (at the end of March 2005) as described by note H “Discontinued operations” to the
condensed consolidated financial statements.
Net income/loss

As a result of the factors detailed above, net income of $3 million was recorded in the three months
ended March 31, 2007 compared to a net loss of $170 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2006.

Liquidity and capital resources

Net cash provided by operating activities was $157 million in the three months ended March 31, 2007,
$17 million higher than $140 million for the comparable period in 2006. This is mainly the result of
higher unit prices of gold being partially offset by higher costs and expenses over the first three
months of 2007 compared with the same period in 2006.

Investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2007 resulted in a net cash outflow of
$226 million compared with an outflow of $108 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006.
Cash inflows resulting from the restructuring of the AngloGold Ashanti hedge book amounted to
$7 million during the first three months of 2007 and additions to property, plant and equipment, which
included capital expenditure of $194 million, were recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2007
compared to $155 million in the same period in 2006 for major capital projects, including Boddington in
Australia, TauTona and Mponeng in South Africa and the expansion project at the Cuiabá mine in
south-eastern Brazil.

Net cash used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2007 amounted to an
outflow of $35 million, which is an increase of $21 million from an outflow of $14 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2006, and included cash inflows from proceeds from loans of $24 million and
proceeds from stock issued of $14 million. Cash outflows during the three months ended
March 31, 2007 comprised normal scheduled loan repayments of $3 million, the repayment of
$10 million under the $700 million unsecured syndicated loan facility and of $7 million in bank
overdraft loans. The Company made dividend payments of $94 million (32 US cents per ordinary
share) in the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared with dividends of $29 million
(10 US cents per ordinary share) paid in the same period in 2006.

As a result of the items discussed above, at March 31, 2007, AngloGold Ashanti had $359 million of
cash and cash equivalents compared with $471 million at December 31, 2006, a decrease of
$112 million, or 24 percent. At March 31, 2007, the Company had a total of $780 million available but
undrawn under its credit facilities.

AngloGold Ashanti is currently involved in a number of capital projects. At March 31, 2007,
$554 million of AngloGold Ashanti’s future capital expenditure had been contracted for and another
approximately $496 million had been authorized but not yet contracted for, as described in
note O “Commitments and contingencies” to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

To service the above capital commitments and other operational requirements the Company is
dependant upon existing cash resources, cash generated from operations and borrowing facilities.

Cash generated from operations is subject to operational, market and other risks. Distributions from
operations may be subject to foreign investment and exchange control laws and regulations and the
quantity of foreign exchange available in offshore countries. In addition distributions from joint
ventures are subject to the relevant board approval.

The credit facilities and other financing arrangements contain financial covenants and other similar
undertakings. To the extent that external borrowings are required, the Company’s covenant
performance indicates that existing financing facilities will be available to meet the above
commitments. To the extent that any of the financing facilities matures in the near future, the Company
believes that these facilities can be refinanced on similar terms to those currently in place.

During the next twelve months, approximately $207 million of AngloGold Ashanti’s debt is scheduled
to mature consisting mainly of the $700 million unsecured syndicated loan facility (due January 2008).

The Company expects to finance capital expenditure projects and the repayment of debt scheduled to
mature in 2007 from cash on hand, cash flow from operations and its credit facilities.

As discussed in note B “Accounting developments” to the condensed consolidated financial
statements, the Company recognized a $25 million increase in its net liability for unrecognized tax
benefits as a result of the adoption of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. These liabilities are included in
Other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2007, as the
Company generally does not anticipate that settlement of the liabilities will require payment of cash
within the next twelve months. The Company is not able to reasonably estimate when it would be
required to make any cash payments to settle these liabilities, but does not believe that the ultimate
settlement of these obligations will materially affect its liquidity.

Critical accounting policies

The preparation of AngloGold Ashanti’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the year. For a full discussion of the Company’s critical accounting policies, please
see “Item 5: Operating and financial review and prospects – Critical accounting policies” in the
Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2006 which was filed with
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on July 9, 2007.

Recently adopted pronouncements

Income taxes

The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48,
“Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”) on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 clarifies the
accounting and reporting for uncertainties in income tax law. The interpretation prescribes a
comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation and
disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. Refer to
note B “Accounting developments” to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the
discussion regarding the cumulative effect of adopting FIN 48.

Accounting for planned major maintenance activities

The Company adopted the FASB’s Staff Position (FSP) No. AUG AIR-1, "Accounting for Planned
Major Maintenance Activities" (“FSPAIR-1”) on January 1, 2007. FSPAIR-1 eliminates the accrue-in-
advance method of accounting for planned major maintenance activities from the AICPA Audit and
Accounting Guide, Audits of Airlines and the guidance is applicable to entities in all industries. As a
result of the elimination of the accrue-in-advance method, the Airline Guide currently permits the use
of one of the following three remaining methods: (1) direct expensing, (2) built-in overhaul, and (3)
deferral.

Of the three methods of accounting for planned major maintenance allowed by FSPAIR-1, the
Company adopted the built-in overhaul method from January 1, 2007. The built-in overhaul method is
based on segregation of plant and equipment costs into those that should be depreciated over the
useful life of the asset and those that require overhaul at periodic intervals. Thus, the estimated cost of
the overhaul component included in the purchase price of an asset is set up separately from the cost
of the asset and is amortized to the date of the initial overhaul. The cost of the initial overhaul is then
capitalized and amortized to the next overhaul, at which time the process is repeated. The adoption of
FSPAIR-1 did not have a material impact on the Company’s earnings and financial position.

Recently issued pronouncements

Fair value option for financial assets and liabilities

In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS159”). SFAS159 permits entities to choose to measure many
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value, with the objective of improving financial
reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by
measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting
provisions. The provisions of SFAS159 are effective for the Company’s year ending
December 31, 2008. The Company is currently reviewing the guidance issued in SFAS159 and has
not yet determined the impact of this on the financial statements.

Employers’ accounting for defined benefit pension and other post-retirement plans

In September 2006 the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158,
“Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Post-retirement Plans, an amendment
of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)” (“SFAS158”). The recognition and disclosure
requirements of SFAS158 adopted by the Company had no material impact as of December 31, 2006,
while the measurement requirements of SFAS158, which are effective for fiscal years ending
December 31, 2008, requires an entity to measure a defined benefit post-retirement plan's assets and
obligations that determine its funded status as of the same day of the employer's fiscal year-end

statement of financial position. The Company is currently considering processes to meet these
measurement requirements of SFAS158.

Fair value measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”
(“SFAS157”). SFAS157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in
generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurement.
The provisions of SFAS157 are effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2008.
The Company is currently reviewing the guidance issued in SFAS157 and has not yet determined the
impact of this on the financial statements.

Contractual obligations

In addition to the contractual obligations as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F
for the year ended December 31, 2006, during the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company
repaid $10 million and drew down $15 million under the $700 million unsecured syndicated loan facility
(due January 2008) and repaid $7 million under its mainly Ghanaian Cedi-based bank overdraft.
These amounts were funded from cash flow from operations. As at March 31, 2007, $185 million was
drawn under the $700 million loan facility and the total amount included in short-term debt under this
facility amounted to $187 million. As at March 31, 2007, the estimated fair value of all derivatives
making up the hedge positions was a negative $3,027 million (at December 31, 2006: negative
$2,903 million).

Heap leach inventory

The costs of materials currently contained on leach pads are reported as a separate line item apart
from inventory. As of March 31, 2007, $45 million was classified as short term compared with
$46 million as at December 31, 2006 as AngloGold Ashanti expects the related gold to be recovered
within twelve months. As of March 31, 2007, $162 million was classified as long term compared with
$149 million as at December 31, 2006.

Hedging overview

AngloGold Ashanti manages its revenue risk through an actively directed hedging program within
board directed limits. Management continues to have the latitude to put new contracts in place where
the gold price and operating circumstances make this necessary or prudent.

At March 31, 2007, the net delta hedge position of AngloGold Ashanti was at 9.59 million ounces at a
spot price of gold of $663.20 per ounce. The net delta hedge position reflects a decrease of
570,000 ounces in the net size of the AngloGold Ashanti hedges compared with the quarter ended
December 31, 2006. This decrease was due to delivering into maturing hedge positions and entering
into new long positions as a continuation of the hedge reduction strategy. The marked-to-market
valuation of this position at March 31, 2007 was negative $3,027 million. The Company has continued
to manage its hedge positions actively, and to reduce overall levels of pricing commitments in respect
of future production of gold by the Company. As a result of this strategy as at March 31, 2007, the
Company has a long dollar gold position of 24,078kg at an average of $657 per ounce for 2007 and a
further 6,758kg at an average of $658 per ounce for 2008.

At March 31, 2007, AngloGold Ashanti had outstanding the following forward-pricing commitments
against future production. The total net delta tonnage of the hedge of the Company on this date was
9.59 million ounces (at December 31, 2006: 10.16 million ounces). This is calculated using the Black-
background image
33
Scholes option formula with the ruling market prices, interest rates and volatilities as at
March 31, 2007.

The marked-to-market value of all hedge transactions making up the hedge positions was a negative
$3,027 million at March 31, 2007 (at December 31, 2006: negative $2,903 million). These values were
based on a gold price of $663.20 per ounce, exchange rates of R7.24/$ and A$/$0.8088 and the
prevailing market interest rates and volatilities at that date.

During 2007, the Company changed the method of allocating hedging to individual mines. In prior
periods, forward contracts were allocated to each reporting segment, based on the then prevailing
contractual relationship with the counterparty. Following the removal of certain counterparty
restrictions and the granting of group level guarantees during 2006, the Company has applied an
average received gold price across all reporting segments. The average received gold price for each
mine is thus similar to the Company’s average received gold price which includes realized
gains/losses on non-hedge derivatives.

At May 2, 2007 (AngloGold Ashanti issued its IFRS results for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 on
May 4, 2007), the marked-to-market value of the hedge book was a negative $3,063 million based on
a gold price of $673.50 per ounce and exchange rates of R7.038/$ and A$/$0.823 and the prevailing
market interest rates and volatilities at the time.

These marked-to-market valuations are not predictive of the future value of the hedge position, nor of
the future impact on the revenue of the Company. The valuation represents the cost of buying all
hedge contracts at the time of valuation, at market prices and rates available at that time.

The Delta of the hedge position indicated above is the equivalent gold position that would have the same
marked-to-market sensitivity for a small change in the gold price. This is calculated using the Black-Scholes
option formula with the ruling market prices, interest rates and volatilities as at March 31, 2007.

A limited number of the dollar gold hedge contracts included optional early termination provisions
pursuant to which the hedge counterparty can elect to terminate the relevant hedging contracts on
specified dates. The early termination provision which applies can be exercised in the first five
business days of January 2010. These contracts form part of the Ashanti hedge that was in place prior
to the Business Combination between AngloGold and Ashanti completed in April 2004.
