This €745 million bond is the first instrument issued following the publication of Anglo American’s
Sustainability Financing Framework and bond investors will be entitled to a higher final coupon payment
should the company not meet these targets:

       -      Reduce absolute greenhouse gas emissions (Scopes 1 and 2) by 30% by 2030, compared to 2016
       -      Reduce the abstraction of fresh water in water scarce areas by 50% by 2030 compared to 2015
       -      Support 5 jobs off site for every job on site by 2030

The financing mechanism will see a coupon increase of 40bps accruing from September 2031 for each of
the selected KPIs that do not achieve its target or if the verification of the target being achieved has not
been published.

Anglo American’s Sustainability Financing Framework has been established in accordance with the
Sustainability-Linked Bond Principles (SLBP) 2020 administered by ICMA (International Capital Market
Association) and the Sustainability-Linked Loan Principles (SLLP) 2022 administered by the LMA (Loan
Market Association). These are voluntary guidelines that outline best practices for financial instruments
to incorporate forward-looking sustainability performance outcomes and promote the development and
preserve the integrity of the sustainability-linked bond and loan markets.

Anglo American’s Sustainability Financing Framework covers bonds, loans and other financing
instruments and links the company’s funding requirements to stretch goals set out in its Sustainable
Mining Plan.

This document includes forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts included
in this document, including, without limitation, those regarding Anglo American’s financial position, business,
acquisition and divestment strategy, dividend policy, plans and objectives of management for future operations
(including development plans and objectives relating to Anglo American’s products, production forecasts and Ore
Reserve and Mineral Resource positions) and environmental, social and corporate governance goals and aspirations,
are forward-looking statements. By their nature, such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Anglo American
or industry results to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements.

Such forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions regarding Anglo American’s present and
future business strategies and the environment in which Anglo American will operate in the future. Important factors
that could cause Anglo American’s actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements include, among others, levels of actual production during any period, levels of global
demand and commodity market prices, mineral resource exploration and development capabilities, recovery rates
and other operational capabilities, safety, health or environmental incidents, the effects of global pandemics and
outbreaks of infectious diseases, the outcome of litigation or regulatory proceedings, the availability of mining and
processing equipment, the ability to produce and transport products profitably, the availability of transport
infrastructure, the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on market prices and operating costs, the availability
of sufficient credit, the effects of inflation, political uncertainty and economic conditions in relevant areas of the
world, the actions of competitors, activities by courts, regulators and governmental authorities such as in relation to
permitting or forcing closure of mines and ceasing of operations or maintenance of Anglo American’s assets and
changes in taxation or safety, health, environmental or other types of regulation in the countries where Anglo
American operates, conflicts over land and resource ownership rights and such other risk factors identified in Anglo
American’s most recent Annual Report. Forward-looking statements should, therefore, be construed in light of such
risk factors and undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date of this document. Anglo American expressly disclaims any obligation or
undertaking (except as required by applicable law, the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers, the UK Listing Rules, the
Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority, the Listings Requirements of the securities
exchange of the JSE Limited in South Africa, the SIX Swiss Exchange, the Botswana Stock Exchange and the Namibian

looking statement contained herein to reflect any change in Anglo American’s expectations with regard thereto or
any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.
