Anglo American Platinum Dividend Declaration

The Board is pleased to advise that at its meeting held on 14 February 2019, the directors increased
the pay-out ratio dividend policy from 30% to 40% of headline earnings, which is in accordance with the
Company’s capital allocation framework and in line with our commitment to sustainably return cash to
shareholders through the cycle, whilst retaining a high level of balance sheet strength.

At that meeting, the directors approved the declaration of a final gross cash dividend of 751 cents per
share on the ordinary shares from profits accrued during the six-month period ended 31 December
2018. The dividend has been declared from retained earnings.

The dividend will be subject to a dividend withholding tax of 20% for all shareholders who are not exempt
from or do not qualify for a reduced rate of withholding tax. The net dividend payable to shareholders
subject to withholding tax at a rate of 20% amounts to 600.80 cents per share.

The issued share capital at the declaration date is 269,681,886 ordinary shares and the Company’s tax
number is 9575104717.
