ANGLO AMERICAN PLC SHAREHOLDING IN TONGAAT HULETT
Tongaat Hulett shareholders are referred to the announcement made today by Anglo
American plc in respect of a bookbuild process (involving Tongaat Hulett
ordinary shares and exchangeable bonds issued by Anglo American) to dispose of
the shares it owns in Tongaat Hulett to institutional investors.
Peter Staude, CEO of Tongaat Hulett, says "This is an opportunity to increase
the liquidity of Tongaat Hulett`s listed equity and enhance the extent and
spread of local and foreign shareholders. This transaction by Anglo American
should remove the uncertainty that has existed in respect of its shareholding in
Tongaat Hulett and enable increased investment by emerging market fund managers,
who were previously constrained by the limited liquidity."

(SENS) on the JSE and the Regulatory News Service (RNS) on the LSE.
