ANGLOGOLD ASHANTI LIMITED
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010

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 annual 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 six-month period ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010.

The balance sheet as at December 31, 2009 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 for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 and as at December 31, 2009 and 2008 and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 6-K dated August 11, 2010.

Note B. Accounting developments

Recently adopted pronouncements

Amendments and technical corrections to various codification topics

In February 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) updated Accounting Standards Codification (“the Codification” or “ASC”) guidance which contains amendments and technical corrections to certain Codification topics. While the guidance does not significantly alter US GAAP, it may result in limited change to existing practice.

The clarifications of the guidance on embedded derivatives and hedging are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009. The adoption of the updated guidance had no impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Distributions to shareholders

In January 2010, the FASB ASC guidance for accounting for distributions to shareholders with components of stock and cash was updated to clarify that the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a potential limitation on the total amount of cash that all shareholders can elect to receive in aggregate is considered a share issuance that is reflected in EPS prospectively. The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, and should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods. The adoption of the updated guidance had no impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Fair value measurements

In January 2010, the FASB ASC guidance for disclosures about fair value measurements was updated, providing amendments to the guidance which requires entities to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers. In addition, entities are required to present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the reconciliation of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The updated guidance further clarified the level of disaggregation required for assets and liabilities and the disclosures required for inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3. The disclosures related to Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The adoption of the updated guidance had no material impact on the Company’s financial statements. The disclosures related to Level 3 fair value measurements are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Prepared in accordance with US GAAP

Note B. Accounting developments (continued)

Recently adopted pronouncements (continued)

Variable interest entities

In June 2009, the FASB ASC guidance for consolidation accounting was updated to require an entity to perform a qualitative analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest gives it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity (“VIE”). This analysis identifies a primary beneficiary of a VIE as the entity that has both of the following characteristics: (i) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The updated guidance is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Subsequent events

In May 2009, the FASB updated the ASC guidance for subsequent events to establish general standards of accounting for, and disclosures of, events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. In February 2010, the FASB amended the ASC guidance for subsequent events. As a result, SEC registrants will not disclose the date through which management evaluated subsequent events in the financial statements. This change for SEC registrants was effective immediately. The adoption of the updated guidance had no impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010

Prepared in accordance with US GAAP

Note B. Accounting developments (continued)

Recently issued pronouncements

Disclosures about the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses

In July 2010, the FASB issued guidance to address concerns about the sufficiency, transparency, and robustness of credit risk disclosures for financing receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. The guidance requires that entities disclose information at disaggregated levels. The expanded disclosures include roll-forward schedules of the allowance for credit losses and information regarding the credit quality of receivables as of the end of a reporting period. Certain financing receivables that were modified during a reporting period and those that were previously modified and have re-defaulted require enhanced disclosures.

The new disclosure requirements apply to all entities that have lending arrangements in the form of receivables or a lessor’s right to lease payments (other than operating leases), although disclosures for trade accounts receivable with a contractual maturity of one year or less are exempt. For public entities, the new disclosures are required for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2010, although the disclosures of reporting period activity (i.e., allowance roll-forward and modification disclosures) are required for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the guidance on the Company’s financial statements.

Compensation – stock compensation

In April 2010, the FASB issued guidance for stock compensation. The amendments clarify that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award should not be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The guidance also clarifies that disclosures currently required are applicable to a share-based payment award, including the nature and terms of share-based payment arrangements. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The amendments will be applied prospectively. A cumulative-effect adjustment will be calculated for all awards outstanding as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the amendments are initially applied, as if the amendments had been applied consistently since the inception of the award. The cumulative-effect adjustment should be presented separately. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Embedded credit derivatives – scope exception

In March 2010, the FASB updated ASC guidance which addresses application of the embedded derivative scope exception. The updated guidance primarily affects entities that hold or issue investments in financial instruments that contain embedded credit derivative features and its provisions could affect the accounting for many types of investments.

The updated guidance is effective on the first day of the first fiscal quarter beginning after June 15, 2010. For a calendar-year-end entity, the guidance becomes effective on July 1, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. At adoption, any difference shall be recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings for the period of adoption.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010

Prepared in accordance with US GAAP

Note E. Debt

Loan facilities

During the second quarter of 2010, the Company repaid and cancelled the 2009 Term Facility and the $1.15 billion syndicated loan facility, and in addition, cancelled the 2009 Revolving Credit Facility which was undrawn. The Company entered into a new $1.0 billion four year revolving credit facility to replace these facilities. The cancellation of these debt facilities resulted in a once-off charge to earnings of $8 million related to accelerated amortization of fees.

Amounts outstanding under the $1.0 billion facility bear interest at a margin of 1.75 percent over the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). A commitment fee of 0.70 percent is payable on the undrawn portion of the facility.

As of June 30, 2010, $nil million was drawn under the $1.0 billion revolving credit facility.

Convertible bonds

On May 22, 2009, the Company concluded an issue of convertible bonds, in the aggregate principal amount of $732.5 million at an interest rate of 3.5 percent convertible into American depositary shares (“ADSs”) of AngloGold Ashanti at an initial conversion price of $47.6126. The conversion price is subject to standard weighted average anti-dilution protection. The convertible bonds were issued by AngloGold Ashanti Holdings Finance plc, a finance company wholly-owned by AngloGold Ashanti Limited. AngloGold Ashanti Limited has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the convertible bonds issued by AngloGold Ashanti Holdings Finance plc. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of AngloGold Ashanti Limited to obtain funds from its subsidiaries by dividend or loan.

The Company is separately accounting for the conversion features of the convertible bonds at fair value as a derivative liability, which was determined to be $142.2 million on May 22, 2009, with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in earnings each period. The fair value of the derivative liability was $175 million as of December 31, 2009. As at June 30, 2010, the fair value of the derivative liability was $111 million and the $64 million decrease in fair value was recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2010 as a non-hedge derivative gain. The difference between the initial carrying value and the stated value of the convertible bonds, $732.5 million, is being accreted to interest expense using the effective interest method over the 5 year term of the bonds, resulting in a carrying value as at June 30, 2010 of $622 million.

Rated bonds

On April 22, 2010, the Company announced the pricing of an offering of $1.0 billion of 10-year and 30-year unsecured notes. The notes were issued by AngloGold Ashanti Holdings plc, a wholly-owned subsidiary of AngloGold Ashanti, and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by AngloGold Ashanti Limited. The offering closed on April 28, 2010.

The offering consisted of $700 million of 10 year unsecured notes at a semi-annual coupon of 5.375 percent and $300 million of 30 year unsecured notes at a semi-annual coupon of 6.50 percent.

As at June 30, 2010, the total carrying value of the $1.0 billion notes (including accrued interest of $10 million) amounted to $1,004 million.

The hedge buy-back during July 2009 resulted in the re-designation of all contracts that were previously designated as normal purchase and sale exempted (“NPSE”) as non-hedge derivatives, which resulted in an increase in current non-hedge derivative liabilities and a consequential loss on non-hedge derivatives of $556 million as of December 31, 2009. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the fair value of contracts that were previously designated as NPSE further increased by $96 million (recorded as a non-hedge derivative loss), while settlements amounted to $233 million resulting in a $419 million derivative liability balance as at June 30, 2010.

The net loss recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2010 relates to realized losses on non-hedge derivatives, the revaluation of non-hedge derivatives resulting from changes in the prevailing spot gold price, exchange rates, interest rates and volatilities during the six months ended June 30, 2010, partially offset by the fair value gain of the conversion features of convertible bonds amounting to $64 million (as described in note E).

Note H. Taxation

The net taxation expense of $106 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to a net expense of $154 million for the same period in 2009, constitutes the following:


	Six months ended June 30,
	2010			2009
	(unaudited)			(unaudited)
	(in US Dollars, millions)
Charge for current taxation⁽¹⁾		127			97
(Benefit)/charge for deferred taxation⁽²⁾		(21	)		57

		106			154


⁽¹⁾		The higher current taxation in 2010 is mainly due to higher taxable earnings partially offset by benefits from ongoing hedge restructures.

⁽²⁾		Includes deferred taxation credits of $31 million on unrealized non-hedge derivative losses (2009: $nil million).

Uncertain taxes

As at June 30, 2010, the Company had $151 million of total unrecognized tax benefits which, if recognized, would affect the Company’s effective income tax rate.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:


	(in US Dollars, millions)
Balance at January 1, 2010		149
Additions for tax positions of prior years		6
Translation		(4	)

Balance as at June 30, 2010		151

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 six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recognized approximately $4 million in interest. As at June 30, 2010, the Company had accrued $56 million in interest.

Note N. Derivative instruments

In the normal course of its operations, the Company is exposed to gold and other commodity price, currency, interest rate, liquidity and non-performance risk, which includes credit risk. The Company is also exposed to certain by-product commodity price risk. In order to manage these risks, the Company enters into derivative transactions and has developed a risk management process to facilitate, control and monitor these risks. The board has approved and monitors this risk management process, inclusive of documented treasury policies, counterpart limits, controlling and reporting structures. The Company does not acquire, hold or issue derivatives for trading purposes.

Contracts that meet the criteria for hedge accounting are designated as the hedging instruments hedging the variability of forecasted cash flows from the sale of production into the spot market and capital expenditure and are classified as cash flow hedges under the FASB ASC guidance on derivatives and hedging. The ineffective portion of matured and existing cash flow hedges recognized in loss on non-hedge derivatives in the income statement during the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $nil million. As at June 30, 2010, the Company does not have any cash flow hedge contracts relating to product sales. Cash flow hedge contracts pertaining to capital expenditure, with a maturity value of $3 million as at June 30, 2010, are currently recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and are expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income and recognized as an adjustment to depreciation expense, until 2012.

A loss on non-hedge derivatives of $409 million was recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to a gain of $239 million in the same period of 2009. See note G “Non-hedge derivative loss” for additional information.

Gold price and currency risk management activities

Gold and currency derivative instruments are denominated in South African rands, US dollars and Australian dollars. The derivative instruments utilized are forward sale and purchase contracts, purchased and sold put options, and purchased and sold call options. The Company’s reserve and financial strength has allowed it to arrange unmargined credit lines with counterparts.

Reduction in derivatives position

During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, the Company continued to deliver into hedge commitments, as part of its strategy to reduce its overall position and increase exposure to spot gold prices. As a result, the net delta of the hedge book decreased (from March 31, 2010) by 290,000 ounces, or 9 percent, to 3.06 million ounces or 95 tonnes (at March 31, 2010: 3.35 million ounces or 104 tonnes), with total commitments of 3.22 million ounces, reflecting a decline of 330,000 ounces, or 9 percent, at June 30, 2010 over committed ounces of 3.55 million ounces as of March 31, 2010.

Net delta open hedge position as at June 30, 2010

The negative marked-to-market value of all hedge transactions making up the hedge positions as at June 30, 2010 was a $2.41 billion (liability), which increased by $0.34 billion over the quarter ended March 31, 2010. This value was based on a gold price of $1,241 per ounce, exchange rates of R7.63/$ and A$/$0.84 and the prevailing market interest rates and volatilities at that date.

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 theoretical cost of exiting all hedge contracts at the time of valuation, at market prices and rates available at that time.

The following table indicates the Company’s unaudited gold hedge position at a weighted average settlement price as at June 30, 2010.

Foreign exchange price risk protection agreements

The Company enters into currency forward exchange and currency option contracts to hedge certain anticipated transactions denominated in foreign currencies. The objective of the Company’s foreign currency hedging activities is to protect the Company from the risk that the eventual cash flows resulting from transactions denominated in US dollars will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates.

The following table indicates the Company’s unaudited currency hedge position at June 30, 2010 (references to ''$’’ are to the US dollar and references to ''A$’’ are to the Australian dollar).

Interest and liquidity risk

Fluctuations in interest rates impacts interest paid and received on the short-term cash investments and financing activities, giving rise to interest rate risk. The Company utilizes money market and debt instruments to manage its interest rate and liquidity risk.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company receives cash from the proceeds of its gold sales and is required to fund working capital requirements. This cash is managed to ensure surplus funds are invested in a manner to achieve market related returns while minimizing risks. The Company is able to actively source financing at competitive rates. The counterparts are financial and banking institutions and their credit ratings are regularly monitored by the Company.

Note N. Derivative instruments (continued)

Non-performance risk

Realization of contracts is dependent upon the counterparts’ performance. The Company has not obtained collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to non-performance risk, but regularly monitors the credit standing of counterparts. The Company spreads its business over a number of financial and banking institutions and believes that little to no concentration of non-performance risk exists. Limits for each counterpart are based on the assessed credit quality of each counterpart. The AngloGold Ashanti Treasury Committee makes recommendations for board approval of all counterparts and the limits to be applied to each counterpart. Where possible, management puts ISDA netting agreements in place.

The combined maximum credit risk exposure of the Company as at June 30, 2010 is as follows.

Prepared in accordance with US GAAP

Note N. Derivative instruments (continued)

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:

Cash restricted for use, cash and cash equivalents and short-term debt

The carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short-term duration of these instruments.

Long-term debt

The fair values of the convertible and rated bonds are shown at their quoted market value. Other long-term debt re-prices on a short-term floating rate basis, and accordingly the carrying amount approximates to fair value.

Derivatives

The fair value of volatility-based instruments (i.e. options) are estimated based on market prices, volatilities, credit risk and interest rates, while the fair value of forward sales and purchases are estimated based on the quoted market prices and credit risk for the contracts at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing formula to value option contracts.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010

Prepared in accordance with US GAAP

Note O. Commitments and contingencies

Capital expenditure commitments

Capital commitments and contingent liabilities of the Company include total contracted capital expenditure of $237 million and total authorized capital expenditure not yet contracted of approximately $1,444 million as of June 30, 2010. The Company intends to finance these capital expenditures from cash on hand, cash flow from operations, the proceeds from the sale of the Tau Lekoa mine, existing and new replacement credit facilities and long-term debt financing and, potentially if deemed appropriate, the issuance of equity and equity linked instruments.

Ground water pollution

The Company has identified groundwater contamination plumes at certain of its operations, which have occurred primarily as a result of seepage from mine residue stockpiles. Numerous scientific, technical and legal studies have been undertaken to assist in determining the magnitude of the contamination and to find sustainable remediation solutions. The Company has instituted processes to reduce future potential seepage and it has been demonstrated that Monitored Natural Attenuation (MNA) by the existing environment will contribute to improvement in some instances. Furthermore, literature reviews, field trials and base line modeling techniques suggest, but are not yet proven, that the use of phyto-technologies can address the soil and groundwater contamination. Subject to the completion of trials and the technology being a proven remediation technique, no reliable estimate can be made for the obligation.

Deep ground water pollution — South Africa

The Company has identified a flooding and future pollution risk posed by deep groundwater in the Klerksdorp and Far West Rand gold fields. Various studies have been undertaken by AngloGold Ashanti since 1999. Due to the interconnected nature of mining operations, any proposed solution needs to be a combined one supported by all the mines located in these gold fields. As a result, the Department of Mineral Resources and affected mining companies are involved in the development of a “Regional Mine Closure Strategy”. In view of the limitation of current information for the accurate estimation of a liability, no reliable estimate can be made for the obligation.

Sales tax on gold deliveries — Brazil

Mineração Serra Grande S.A. (“MSG”), received two tax assessments from the State of Goiás related to payments of sales taxes on gold deliveries for export. AngloGold Ashanti Brazil Mineração Ltda. manages the operation and its attributable share of the first assessment is approximately $49 million. In November 2006, the administrative council’s second chamber ruled in favor of MSG and fully cancelled 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 $30 million. The Company believes both assessments are in violation of federal legislation on sales taxes.

Other tax disputes — Brazil

MSG received a tax assessment in October 2003 from the State of Minas Gerais related to sales taxes on gold. The tax administrators rejected the Company’s appeal against the assessment. The Company is now appealing the dismissal of the case. The Company’s attributable share of the assessment is approximately $9 million. Subsidiaries of the Company in Brazil are involved in various disputes with tax authorities. These disputes involve federal tax assessments including income tax, royalties, social contributions and annual property tax. The amount involved is approximately $21 million.

Indirect taxes — Ghana

AngloGold Ashanti (Ghana) Limited received a tax assessment for $10 million during September 2009 following an audit by the tax authorities related to indirect taxes on various items. Management is of the opinion that the indirect taxes are not payable and the Company has lodged an objection.

Royalty — Boddington Gold Mine

As a result of the sale of the interest in the Boddington Gold Mine during 2009, the Company is entitled to receive a royalty on any gold recovered or produced by the Boddington Gold Mine, where the gold price is in excess of Boddington Gold Mine’s cash costs plus $600 per ounce. The royalty is payable in each quarter from and after the second quarter in 2010, within forty five days of reporting period close and is capped at a total amount of $100 million. During August 2010, the Company received $2 million in royalties.

Insurance claim — Savuka Gold Mine

On May 22, 2009, an insurable event occurred at Savuka Gold Mine. The amounts due from the insurers are subject to a formula based on lost production, average gold price and average exchange rates subject to various excesses and the production and the preparation of supportable data. The insurable amount is not yet determinable, but management expects the amount to exceed $40 million, of which $23 million has been received during the latter part of 2009 and in 2010 ⁽¹⁾.

Oro Group 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 ($13 million). The probability of the non-performance under the suretyships is considered minimal.

AngloGold Ashanti USA reclamation bonds

Pursuant to US environmental and mining requirements, gold mining companies are obligated to close their operations and rehabilitate the lands that they mine in accordance with these requirements. AngloGold Ashanti USA has posted reclamation bonds with various federal and state governmental agencies to cover potential rehabilitation obligations in amounts aggregating approximately $84 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 its rehabilitation obligations. As at June 30, 2010, the carrying value of these obligations amounted to $32 million and is included in the Provision for environmental rehabilitation in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The obligations will expire upon completion of such rehabilitation and release of such areas by the applicable federal and/or state agency. AngloGold Ashanti is not indemnified by third parties for any of the amounts that may be paid by AngloGold Ashanti under its guarantee.

⁽¹⁾

Amounts received during 2010 include $1 million for business interruption (included in Loss/profit on sale of assets, realization of loans, indirect taxes and other) and $11 million as reimbursement of costs (included in Production costs).

AngloGold Ashanti environmental guarantees

Pursuant to South African mining laws, mining companies are obligated to close their operations and rehabilitate the lands that they mine in accordance with these laws. Provision for environmental rehabilitation in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as at June 30, 2010 includes an amount of $117 million for future costs, excluding premature closure costs. In order to cover against premature closure costs, the Company has secured bank guarantees to cover potential rehabilitation obligations of certain mines in South Africa. The Company has provided a guarantee for these obligations which would be payable in the event of the South African mines not being able to meet such rehabilitation obligations. As at June 30, 2010, the value of these obligations amounted to $130 million. The obligations will expire upon compliance with all provisions of the environment management program in terms of South African mining laws. AngloGold Ashanti is not indemnified by third parties for any of the amounts that may be paid by AngloGold Ashanti under its guarantee.

Note R. Fair value measurements

The FASB ASC guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

The following table sets out the Company’s financial assets and (liabilities) measured at fair value by level within the hierarchy as at June 30, 2010 (in US Dollars, millions):

Items measured at fair value on a recurring basis


Description	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3	Total
Cash and cash equivalents		866						866
Marketable equity securities		124						124
Derivatives, net				(2,425	)			(2,425	)
Embedded derivative				(1	)			(1	)
Warrants on shares				2				2
Option component of convertible bonds				(111	)			(111	)

The Company’s cash equivalents are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices. The cash instruments that are valued based on quoted market prices in active markets are primarily money market securities. Due to the short maturity of cash, carrying amounts approximate fair values.

The Company’s marketable equity securities are included in Other long-term assets in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. They consist of investments in ordinary shares and are valued using quoted market prices in active markets and as such are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the marketable equity securities is calculated as the quoted market price of the marketable equity security multiplied by the quantity of shares held by the Company.

The Company’s derivative instruments are valued using pricing models and the Company generally uses similar models to value similar instruments. Options associated with marketable equity securities and the conversion features of convertible bonds are included as derivatives on the balance sheet. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit spreads, measures of volatility and correlations of such inputs. The Company’s derivatives trade in liquid markets, and as such, model inputs are observable. Such instruments are typically classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Items measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company fully impaired the tailings storage facility at Iduapriem and wrote-off certain vehicles and heavy mining equipment at Geita, resulting in a loss of $11 million which is included in earnings for the period.

Long-lived assets held for sale (Tau Lekoa) with a carrying amount of $69 million were written down to fair value less costs to sell of $61 million. This resulted in a loss of $8 million which is included in earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Fair values of these assets were based on sales agreements with third parties and as such are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. These are summarized as follows:

REVIEW OF FINANCIAL AND OPERATING PERFORMANCE FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH US GAAP

In the following discussion references to rands, ZAR and R are to the lawful currency of the Republic 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 and A$ are to the lawful currency of Australia, references to BRL is to the lawful currency of Brazil, reference to C$ is to the lawful currency of Canada and references to GHC or cedi are to the lawful currency of Ghana.

Introduction

AngloGold Ashanti’s operating results are directly related to the price of gold which can fluctuate widely and which is affected by numerous factors beyond its control, including investment, industrial and jewellery demand, expectations with respect to the rate of inflation, 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 and the International Monetary Fund (“IMF”), forward sales by producers, global or regional political or economic events, and production and cost levels in major gold-producing regions. In addition, the price of gold sometimes is subject to rapid short-term changes because of speculative activities.

The current demand for and supply of gold may affect gold prices, but not necessarily in the same manner as current supply and demand affect the prices of other commodities. The supply of gold consists of a combination of new production and fabricated gold held by governments, public and private financial institutions, industrial organizations and private individuals.

As the amounts produced in any single year constitute a very small portion of the total potential supply of gold, normal variations in 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 the Company’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 or to continue the development of some or all of its projects.

Impact of exchange rate fluctuations

During the first six months of 2010 the rand weakened marginally against the US dollar (based on the exchange rates of R7.44 and R7.63 per US dollar on January 1, 2010 and June, 30, 2010, respectively). However, the value of the rand strengthened by 18 percent against the US dollar when compared to the average exchange rates of the rand against the US dollar of R7.52 and R9.18 during the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The stronger rand against the US dollar negatively impacted on the dollar denominated costs and therefore on the profitability of AngloGold Ashanti.

The value of the Australian dollar strengthened by 20 percent against the US dollar when compared to the average exchange rate of A$1.12 for the first six months of 2010 against an average exchange rate of A$1.40 for the same period in 2009. The value of the Brazilian real strengthened by 18 percent against the US dollar based on the average exchange rates of BRL1.80 and BRL2.20 per US dollar during the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The strengthening of these local currencies against the US dollar further negatively impacted the dollar denominated costs and therefore on the profitability of AngloGold Ashanti.

Gold market for the quarter ended June 30, 2010

Gold price movement and investment markets

Gold price data

The gold price averaged $1,198 per ounce during the second quarter of 2010, 8 percent more than during the previous three-month period amid a continued backdrop of heightened sovereign-debt risk in Europe, with successive debt downgrades in Greece and Portugal. As this contagion spread across Mediterranean countries, the equity markets dropped and the euro traded sharply lower versus the US dollar. Risk aversion in the broader market sent bullion to a record $1,265 per ounce on June 21 and also to new highs in both euro and Brazilian real terms, highlighting the metal’s potential safe haven qualities across several regions.

Investment

While the rate of inflows into exchange traded funds moderated year-on-year, the 10 major Exchange Traded Funds (“ETFs”) still grew from 57 million ounces at the start of the second quarter to a high of 65 million ounces. ETF gold holdings represent almost 80 percent of estimated global annual gold production. Net long positions on the Comex peaked at 34 million ounces, a level last seen during the fourth quarter of 2009.

The sovereign debt crisis underpinned investment demand in the United States. During the second quarter of 2010, 191 tonnes were added to the GLD ETF and 13.4 million contracts were added to COMEX, 15 percent more than the previous quarter. American Eagles registered sales of 12.5 tonnes during the quarter, up from 8.4 tonnes the previous period. Gold investment in the Middle East market did not experience a particularly notable second quarter on the back of a reasonable first quarter.

Medallion and bar sales rose strongly in India, with anecdotal evidence suggesting that, unlike the jewellery sector, investors showed robust demand even as the price rose. This was further evidenced in large-scale registrations for Jewellery Savings Schemes. Investment demand in China jumped by half year-on-year and accounted for as much as 40 percent of the total gold off-take of about 200 tonnes during the quarter. This was nearly equivalent to all of last year’s investment-related purchases amid continued declines in the country’s stock market and regulatory changes that have made property speculation more onerous.

Official sector

As at June 30, 2010, only 39 tonnes of the 400 tonnes annual quota (which expires on September 27, 2010 under the third Central Bank Sales Agreement) have been sold, comprised of sales by the IMF. The World Gold Council reports that official sector gold holdings increased by 272 tonnes in the first quarter of 2010, of which 180 tonnes were from a revision of Saudi Arabia’s gold holdings.

Jewellery sales

In India the second quarter of 2010 witnessed strong demand in the period leading up to the Akshaya Thritiya festival in mid-May. Across India the festivities started with the Baisakhi Vishu and the Bengali New Year festivities, which run from mid-April. Most jewellers reported higher Akshaya Thritiya sales in volume terms when compared to the same period last year. June is traditionally the annual off-peak season for the Indian market and this year is no different with demand slowing.

The increasing gold price took its toll on jewellery demand in India, with the average price 5 percent higher in rupee terms. Consumer sentiment remained sluggish during the off-peak season amid high price levels, relative volatility and the high rate of inflation. Demand is expected to recover during the festive season from August until November, which features Diwali-Dhanteras. Jewellery sales in China showed single-digit percentage increase during the quarter, which is traditionally a weak sales period in the country. China’s consumers appeared to have adjusted to a buying price of around $1,200 per ounce, but retailers and manufacturers remained more circumspect than during the first quarter. Consumers in the US, however, suffered at the higher prices and retailers continued to hold smaller inventories.

Operating review for the six months ended June 30, 2010

Presented in the table below is selected operating data for AngloGold Ashanti for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. The operating data gives effect to acquisitions and dispositions as of their effective date:


Operating data for AngloGold Ashanti	Six months ended June 30,
	2010		2009
Total gold production (000 oz)⁽¹⁾		2,205		2,230
Capital expenditure ($ million)^(1)(2)(3)		397		502


⁽¹⁾		Including equity accounted joint ventures.
⁽²⁾		Including capital expenditure of Boddington in 2009.
⁽³⁾		Including noncontrolling interests.

Gold production

For the six months ended June 30, 2010, AngloGold Ashanti’s total gold production decreased by approximately 25,000 ounces, or about 1 percent, to 2.21 million ounces from 2.23 million ounces produced in the same period in 2009. In South Africa, gold production decreased from 900,000 ounces produced in the six months to June 30, 2009, to 832,000 ounces produced in the same period in 2010. The decrease is mainly due to lower grades at Mponeng and Surface operations, at Savuka where production remained constrained following a series of seismic events that occurred close to the shaft infrastructure on May 22, 2009 and lower production mined at Great Noligwa in line with a planned downscaling of the operation.

In the Americas, gold production increased from 378,000 ounces produced in the six months to June 30, 2009 to 428,000 ounces produced in the same period in 2010. The increase is mainly due to higher volumes and grades in line with the 2010 production program at AngloGold Ashanti Brasil Mineração and better ounce recovery from pad inventory due to better pad pH chemistry and the stacking of higher grade ore closer to the pad liner on the new leach pad at Cripple Creek & Victor.

Capital expenditures

Total capital expenditure of $397 million was recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $502 million in the same period in 2009. This represented a $105 million, or 20 percent, decrease from the same period in 2009. In Australasia, capital expenditure decreased from $161 million recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2009 to $19 million in the same period in 2010 mainly as a result of the sale of Boddington during 2009. In the Americas, capital expenditure increased in Brazil from $65 million recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2009 to $75 million in the same period in 2010 mainly due to the Córrego do Sítio project at AngloGold Ashanti Brasil Mineração. In South Africa, at Tau Tona, capital expenditure increased from $23 million recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2009 to $33 million in the same period in 2010 due to shaft upgrade costs.

Comparison of financial performance on a segment basis for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

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 2010, the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker, defined as the Executive Management team, changed the basis of segment reporting as a result of a re-alignment of the management reporting structure. Where applicable, the corresponding items of segment information for prior periods presented have been restated to reflect this. Revenues presented below exclude allocated realized gains/losses on non-hedge derivatives to individual geographic areas.

Comparison of financial performance on a segment basis for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Revenues

Revenues from product sales and other income increased from $1,501 million in the first six months of 2009 to $2,406 million in the same period of 2010, representing a 60 percent increase over the period in 2009. This was primarily due to two reasons. Firstly, an increase in the average spot price of gold from $916 per ounce for the six months ended June 30, 2009, to $1,154 per ounce during the six months ended June 30, 2010. Secondly, product sales into previously designated Normal Purchase Sale Exempt contracts being recorded at spot price in the six months ended June 30, 2010, following such contracts being recorded at fair values on the balance sheet. The majority of product sales consisted of US dollar-denominated gold sales.

Production costs

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, AngloGold Ashanti incurred production costs of $1,196 million representing an increase of $241 million from $955 million recorded for the same period of 2009. The production costs of most of the operations increased during the six months ended June 30, 2010 when compared to the same period in 2009. The increase was mainly as a result of an increase in operational costs including labor, consumables, power and services. The strengthening of local currencies against the US dollar also adversely impacted US dollar denominated production costs.

Exploration costs

Exploration costs increased from $51 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009 to $94 million in the same period in 2010 mainly due to an increased level of expenditure at La Colosa in Colombia, Tropicana in Australia and contractual settlements in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

General and administrative

General and administrative expenses increased from $73 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009 to $100 million in the same period in 2010, mainly due to costs relating to labor costs, roll out of project ONE business improvement initiatives and corporate office costs.

Royalties

Royalties paid by AngloGold Ashanti increased from $36 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009, to $58 million paid in the same period in 2010, mainly due to higher spot prices and an increase in gold sold at the Geita mine (Tanzania), Cerro Vanguardia (Argentina) and Siguiri (Guinea). Royalties are predominantly calculated based on a percentage of revenues and are payable primarily to local governments.

Royalties paid by AngloGold Ashanti further increased in 2010 as a result of the introduction in the South African Mineral and Petroleum Resources Act of royalties payable in South Africa from March 1, 2010.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization

Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense increased by $51 million to $336 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $285 million recorded in the same period in 2009, mainly due to a reduction in estimated lives of certain assets at the South African mines following annual life-of-mine planning reviews and stronger operating currencies when compared to the previous year. Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense in South Africa increased by $42 million to $168 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $126 million recorded in the same period in 2009.

Impairment of assets

Impairment charges of $19 million were recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2010, mainly due to the write-off of assets at Iduapriem and Geita and the impairment of the asset held for sale -Tau Lekoa.

Interest expense

Interest expense increased by $10 million to $67 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $57 million recorded in the same period in 2009. Interest expense recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2010 includes $8 million related to accelerated amortization of fees on debt facilities cancelled.

Employment severance costs

Employment severance costs increased to $10 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010 from $6 million in the same period in 2009. Employment severance costs recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2010 relates to retrenchments in the South Africa region reflecting rationalization of operations at Great Noligwa, Mponeng, Moab Khotsong and Koponang.

Loss/profit on sale of assets, realization of loans, indirect taxes and other

In the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded a loss of $16 million (before taxation of $1 million). The loss mainly related to the impairment of debtors in South Africa and Tanzania of $7 million and the reassessment of indirect taxes payable in Continental Africa of $11 million.

In the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company recorded a profit of $83 million (before taxation of $23 million). The profit mainly related to the disposal of the indirect 33 percent joint venture interest in Boddington Gold Mine in Australia to Newmont Mining Corporation offset by a loss on the impairment of the receivable from Pamodzi Gold, whose operations were liquidated during October 2009 and a loss on consignment stock.

Non-hedge derivative loss/gain

A loss on non-hedge derivatives of $409 million was recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to a gain of $239 million in the same period of 2009 relating to the use of non-hedging instruments. The net loss recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2010 relates to realized losses on non-hedge derivatives, the revaluation of non-hedge derivatives resulting from changes in the prevailing spot gold price, exchange rates, interest rates and volatilities during the six months ended June 30, 2010, partially offset by the fair value gain of the conversion features of convertible bonds. Non-hedge derivatives recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 included:


	Six months ended June 30,
	2010			2009

Equity income in affiliates

Equity income in affiliates decreased to $39 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 from $44 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Noncontrolling interests net income

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests increased from $13 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009 to $23 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, mainly due to increased revenue at Serra Grande and Cerro Vanguardia in South America.

Net income

The net income fell from $243 million recorded during the first six months of 2009 to $27 million during the first six months of 2010, mainly due the unrealized losses on the hedge book, as the contracts were valued at a higher spot gold price as at June 30, 2010. The net income attributable to AngloGold Ashanti (after allowing for non-controlling interests) amounted to $4 million for the six months to June 30, 2010 compared to $230 million for the same period in 2009.

Liquidity and capital resources

Net cash provided by operating activities was $577 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, $250 million higher than net cash provided of $327 million for the comparable period in 2009, mainly as a result of increased profitability and lower payments to suppliers. Net cash outflow from operating working capital items amounted to $133 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to an outflow of $147 million in the same period in 2009.

Investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2010 resulted in a net cash outflow of $319 million compared to a net cash inflow of $292 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Additions to property, plant and equipment, which included capital expenditure of $381 million compared to $499 million in the same period in 2009, were recorded in the first six months of 2010.

During April 2010, AngloGold Ashanti completed two key financing transactions namely:

	1.		The issue of two rated bonds maturing in 10 and 30 years aggregating US$1.0 billion. The proceeds were applied to repay and cancel amounts drawn under the $1.15 billion syndicated loan facility and the 2009 Term Facility; and

	2.		The entering of a four year unsecured Revolving Credit Facility with a group of banks for US$1.0 billion which remained undrawn as at June 30, 2010.

Net cash generated by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2010 amounted to an outflow of $481 million, which is a decrease of $1,520 million from an inflow of $1,039 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Cash inflows from proceeds from loans in the six months ended June 30, 2010 amounted to $1,029 million and included $994 million raised on the rated bonds issued during April 2010. Cash outflows from repayment of debt of $1,315 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010 included capital repayments of $1,060 million on the $1.15 billion syndicated loan facility and $250 million on the 2009 Term Facility. Financing activities for non-hedge derivatives maturing resulted in an outflow of $133 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to an inflow of $229 million for the same period in 2009. Debt issuance costs paid during the six months ended June 30, 2010 on the rated bonds amounted to $7 million. The Company made dividend payments of $59 million (10 US cents per ordinary share) in the six months ended June 30, 2010.

As a result of the items discussed above, at June 30, 2010 AngloGold Ashanti had $866 million of cash and cash equivalents compared with $1,100 million at December 31, 2009, a decrease of $234 million. At June 30, 2010, the Company had a total of $1,167 million available but undrawn under its credit facilities (including its new $1.0 billion Revolving Credit Facility).
