In respect of Resolution 20 (Authority to allot shares) the
authority sought by the Company is aligned with the Investment
Association's share capital management guidelines and market
practice for FTSE listed companies. However, Anglo American is
mindful of the concerns expressed by a number of its South African
shareholders which has led to Resolution 20 not receiving the same
high level of support compared to previous years. The dialogue
which the Company has had with its South African shareholders
leading up to the AGM has helped clarify their concerns. We will
continue to listen to our shareholders and keep under review the
parameters of this authority going forward.
This announcement will be available for viewing on the Company's
website, www.angloamerican.com, as soon as practicable.
In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, a copy of all resolutions
passed, other than resolutions concerning ordinary business, have
been submitted to the UK Listing Authority via the National Storage
Mechanism and are available for inspection at
www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/nsm.
