AngloGold Ashanti Holdings plc (the “Offeror”), a company incorporated under the laws of the Isle of Man, announces today the offers to purchase for cash the outstanding series of its (i) 3.375% notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”), (ii) 3.750% notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes”) and (iii) 6.500% notes due 2040 (the “2040 Notes” and together with the 2028 Notes and the 2030 Notes, the “Notes”), issued by the Offeror and guaranteed by AngloGold Ashanti plc, a company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (“AGA”) (the “Offers”) in accordance with the acceptance priority levels set forth in the table below (the “Acceptance Priority Levels”), with “1” being the highest Acceptance Priority Level and “3” being the lowest Acceptance Priority Level, subject to an aggregate purchase price (exclusive of Accrued Interest (as defined below)) for the 2040 Notes that does not exceed $50,000,000 (as such amount may be increased or decreased by the Offeror, the “Sub-Cap”), and for an aggregate purchase price (exclusive of Accrued Interest) for all series of Notes of up to $650,000,000 (as such amount may be increased or decreased by the Offeror, the “Aggregate Cap”). Subject to the Aggregate Cap and the Sub-Cap, the amount of a series of Notes that is purchased in the relevant Offer on the Early Settlement Date or Final Settlement Date (each as defined below), as applicable, will be based on the Acceptance Priority Level for such series of Notes and will be subject to the proration arrangements applicable to the Offers. The terms and conditions of the Offers are described in an offer to purchase dated March 30, 2026 (the “Offer to Purchase”).

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this announcement have the same meaning as assigned to them in the Offer to Purchase.

Holders are advised to read carefully the Offer to Purchase for full details of, and information on the procedures for participating in, the Offers.

The following table sets forth certain information relating to pricing for the Offers.

The Offers

The Offeror will pay Total Consideration for each $1,000 principal amount of each series of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time and accepted for purchase by the Offeror (subject to the applicable Minimum Authorized Denomination (as defined below)) calculated in accordance with the formula set out in the Offer to Purchase in a manner that will be equal to an amount (rounded to the nearest cent, with half a cent rounded upwards) that would reflect, as of the Early Settlement Date, a yield to the maturity date (or, as specified in the Offer to Purchase, the par call date) of such series of Notes equal to the sum of:

• the “Reference Yield” for such series of Notes, being the bid-side yield (rounded to the nearest 0.001% with 0.0005% being rounded upwards) on the Reference U.S. Treasury Security for such series of Notes calculated from the applicable bid-side price by the Dealer Managers (as defined below) in accordance with standard market practice as of the Tender Price Determination Time, as displayed for the Reference U.S. Treasury Security on the Reference Page set forth in the table above (in respect of each series of Notes, the “Reference U.S. Treasury Security”), plus

• the applicable fixed spread for such series of Notes as specified in the table above (the “Fixed Spread”).

The sum of the Fixed Spread and the Reference Yield is referred to as the “Yield.” Specifically, the Total Consideration for each series of Notes will equal (i) the value of all remaining payments of principal and interest on such series of Notes up to and including maturity date (or, as specified in the Offer to Purchase, the par call date) of such series of Notes discounted to the Early Settlement Date at a discount rate equal to the sum of (x) the Reference Yield for such series of Notes plus (y) the Fixed Spread for such series of Notes, minus (ii) Accrued Interest to the Early Settlement Date for such series of Notes.

For the applicable series of Notes, at the Tender Price Determination Time, if the Yield as determined in accordance with the Offer to Purchase is less than the contractual annual rate of interest for such series of Notes, then such Total Consideration will be calculated based on the par call date; if the Yield as determined in accordance with the Offer to Purchase is higher than or equal to the contractual annual rate of interest for such series of Notes, then such Total Consideration will be calculated based on the maturity date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Total Consideration with respect to the 2040 Notes will be calculated based on the maturity date because the 2040 Notes are not redeemable at par prior to their maturity under the terms of the 2040 Notes.

The Total Consideration in respect of each series of Notes, when calculated in the manner set out above, already includes the early tender payment of $50 per $1,000 principal amount of such Notes (the “Early Tender Payment”). To receive the applicable Total Consideration, which includes the Early Tender Payment, holders must validly tender and not validly withdraw their Notes so that they are received by the Information & Tender Agent at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 13, 2026, unless extended (such time, as the same may be extended, the “Early Tender Time”). Holders that validly tender Notes which tender is received by the Information & Tender Agent following the Early Tender Time, but at or prior to the Expiration Time, and whose Notes are accepted for purchase, will receive only the applicable Late Tender Offer Consideration, which is an amount equal to the applicable Total Consideration minus the Early Tender Payment.

In addition to the relevant Late Tender Offer Consideration or Total Consideration, as applicable, all Holders of Notes of a series accepted for purchase will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on such series of Notes from the last interest payment date up to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date or the Final Settlement Date (as specified below), as applicable (the “Accrued Interest”).

Holders should be aware that the expected Final Settlement Date (expected to be May 1, 2026) coincides with a regular scheduled interest payment date for the 2028 Notes. As such, Accrued Interest on any 2028 Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time but before the Expiration Time and accepted for purchase by the Offeror will be paid pursuant to the usual payment process in the ordinary course of business and not in the context of the applicable Offer for such Notes. As such, no Accrued Interest shall be payable pursuant to the applicable Offer in respect of the 2028 Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time but before the Expiration Time, unless the Final Settlement Date is amended to a date which is not a regular scheduled interest payment date for the 2028 Notes. Accrued interest on the 2030 Notes and the 2040 Notes will be paid on the regular interest payment dates for such series of Notes (including, April 1, 2026 with respect to the 2030 Notes and April 15, 2026 with respect to the 2040 Notes) in accordance with the terms of such Notes and pursuant to the usual payment process in the ordinary course of business, and in the context of the applicable Offer, in accordance with the terms of the Offer to Purchase.

Holders of Notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time and that are accepted for purchase will receive the applicable Total Consideration plus Accrued Interest on the Early Settlement Date (subject to the right of the Offeror to extend the Early Tender Time and delay the acceptance of Tender Instructions as set out in the Offer to Purchase). The Early Settlement Date will be promptly following the Early Tender Time and is expected to be April 16, 2026, the third business day after the Early Tender Time. Holders of Notes that are validly tendered following the Early Tender Time but at or prior to the Expiration Time and that are accepted for purchase will receive the applicable Late Tender Offer Consideration plus Accrued Interest on the Final Settlement Date (subject to the right of the Offeror to extend the Expiration Time and delay the acceptance of Tender Instructions as set out in the Offer to Purchase). The Final Settlement Date will be promptly following the Expiration Time and is expected to be May 1, 2026, the third business day after the Expiration Time.

Tender Instructions must be submitted in respect of a principal amount of Notes of no less than the Minimum Authorized Denomination and may be submitted in respect of integral multiples of $1,000 above such Minimum Authorized Denomination. The “Minimum Authorized Denomination” is $200,000 for the 2028 Notes and the 2030 Notes and $1,000 for the 2040 Notes.

Subject to the Aggregate Cap, the Sub-Cap, the proration arrangements applicable to the Offers and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the Conditions to the Offers, all Notes validly tendered on or prior to the Early Tender Time having a higher Acceptance Priority Level (with “1” being the highest Acceptance Priority Level and “3” being the lowest Acceptance Priority Level) will be accepted for purchase before any tendered Notes having a lower Acceptance Priority Level are accepted for purchase, and all Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Time having a higher Acceptance Priority Level will be accepted for purchase before any Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time having a lower Acceptance Priority Level are accepted for purchase. However, subject to the Aggregate Cap and the Sub-Cap, Notes validly tendered on or prior to the Early Tender Time will be accepted for purchase in priority to any Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time even if such Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time have a higher Acceptance Priority Level than Notes tendered on or prior to the Early Tender Time.

The Offeror’s obligation to accept for purchase and to pay for Notes validly tendered pursuant to each Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the Conditions described in the Offer to Purchase. The Offers are not conditioned on any minimum amount of Notes being tendered. Subject to applicable law, the Offeror expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate any of the Offers with respect to the Notes if the conditions to the Offers are not satisfied.

If the Offeror is required to make an announcement relating to an extension of the Withdrawal Deadline, the Early Tender Time or the Expiration Time, an amendment or termination of the Offers, the results of proration of any series of Notes, or acceptance of the Notes of any series for purchase, the Offeror will do so as promptly as practicable and, in the case of an extension of the Expiration Time, no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Time. Announcements in connection with the Offers will be made by issuing a press release to a widely disseminated news or wire service. Copies of all announcements, notices and press releases will be available from the Information & Tender Agent. All documentation relating to the Offers, together with any updates, will also be available (subject to eligibility confirmation and registration) on the Offer Website https://deals.is.kroll.com/anglogoldashanti operated by the Information & Tender Agent for the purpose of the Offers.

A tender of Notes for purchase pursuant to the Offers should be made by the submission of a valid Tender Instruction. A separate Tender Instruction must be submitted on behalf of each beneficial owner of the Notes and in respect of each series of Notes. Tenders and instructions other than in accordance with the procedures set out in the Offer to Purchase will not be accepted.

INDICATIVE TIMETABLE

The following table sets out the expected dates and times of the key events relating to the Offers. This is an indicative timetable and is subject to change.

In the event that any Offer is terminated or otherwise not completed, the Total Consideration or the Late Tender Offer Consideration, as applicable, and any Accrued Interest, relating to the Notes subject to such Offer will not be paid or become payable pursuant to the Offers, without regard to whether Holders have validly tendered their Notes (in which case such tendered Notes will be promptly returned to the Holders).
