Statement regarding the rejection by Anglo American of BHP's latest proposal

Shareholders are referred to the announcements made by the Company on 25 April 2024, 26 April 2024 and 13 May
2024, respectively, regarding BHP's proposed offer to acquire Anglo American plc ("Anglo American").

The Board of Anglo American Platinum notes the announcement made earlier today by Anglo American confirming that
it had received a third proposal by BHP on 20 May 2024 to acquire Anglo American. The latest BHP proposal contained
different terms, however, it still retained the previous structure which required a demerger of Anglo American's' interests
in Anglo American Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore. This proposal has been rejected by the Anglo American board.
