Directorate Change
Ralph Alexander, who joined the board of Anglo American plc ("Anglo American")
as a non-executive director in April 2005, has recently taken up a full-time
appointment as a managing director of US-based, Riverstone Holdings LLC, a
private equity firm specializing exclusively in the energy and power sectors.
Consequently he has decided to step down as a non-executive director of Anglo
American with effect from today.
Mr Alexander said: "My appointment to Riverstone is very much full-time time
and I consequently felt that I would not be able to devote as much time and
energy to the affairs of Anglo American as required and, with regret, I have
therefore tendered my resignation. I have greatly enjoyed my time at Anglo
American and wish the company all the best for the future."
Sir Mark Moody-Stuart, Chairman of Anglo American, said: "We very much regret
that Ralph is leaving us and thank him for his insightful contribution to the
affairs of the Anglo Group since he joined us."
