Wed 21 Feb 2007, 11:06 Anglo final results cont. 5
(3) During the year ended 31 December 2006, the whole of the Anglo America n    
plc convertible bond was converted to equity by bondholders. This has resulted  
in a reduction in the discounted balance sheet liability of $1,068 million and  
a corresponding increase in issued share capital and share premium. A further   
reserve transfer of $32 million has been made from the convertible bond reserve 
to share premium to reflect the total fair value of shares issued to            
bondholders. During the year ended 31 December 2006, the number of shares       
converted was 47,789,096, at a conversion price of $23.12 to May 2006 and       
$22.76 subsequently.

(1) The revenue and operating profit for the year ended 31 December 2006 of     
AltaSteel, including the remaining 50% of Moly-Cop Canada, if the acquisition   
date had been at the beginning of the year, would have been $93 million and $34 
million respectively. The operating profit for the period since acquisition was 
$32 million.                                                                    
There was one material acquisition made during the year to 31 December 2005.    
The Group acquired the remaining 48.75% minority interest in Ticor Ltd for a    
total cash consideration of $177 million. Net assets acquired in the

mining and concentrating business and interests in prospecting rights.          
Details of these disposals are included below. The prior year disposals

16a. AngloGold Ashanti                                                          
On 20 April 2006 the Group completed the sale of 19.7 million ordinary shares   
held in AngloGold Ashanti Limited for cash of $978 million. This, together with 
the Group`s non-participation in the issue of additional ordinary shares,       
throughout the year, by AngloGold Ashanti, diluted the Group`s percentage       
investment from 50.9% to 41.7%. With effect from that date, the Group ceased to 
account for AngloGold Ashanti as a subsidiary and began accounting for it as an 
associate under the equity method.                                              
The net asset position at the date of disposal, together with the               
reclassification to an associate and resulting gain on disposal of shares and

On 28 November 2006 the Kumba Resources BEE transaction was effected. Kumba     
Iron Ore was accordingly unbundled from Kumba Resources (i.e. leaving the       
non-iron ore operations) which was renamed Exxaro. The Group retained a 64%     
interest in Kumba Iron Ore. The Group disposed of part of its investment in     
Exxaro through a share buyback and sale of shares. The Group retains an         
interest of 23% in Exxaro over which it does not exercise significant influence 
and accordingly this has been held as an available for sale financial asset     
since 28 November 2006.

16c. Highveld Steel and Vanadium Corporation (Highveld)                         
On 14 July 2006, the Group announced the sale of Anglo American`s 79% stake in  
Highveld to Evraz Group SA and Credit Suisse for a total consideration of $678  
million. Following the disposal of the initial 49.8%, for which Anglo American  
received $412 million, following certain regulatory approvals Evraz has an      
option to acquire Anglo American`s remaining 29.2% stake in Highveld for $266   
million. This amount will be reduced by any dividends paid by Highveld prior to 
Anglo American selling its remaining shares. Anglo American and Credit Suisse   
have agreed that Anglo American will retain the voting rights in respect of the 
shares acquired by Credit Suisse until such time as Anglo American disposes of  
all its shares in Highveld. As a result, the Group continues to consolidate     
Highveld (while recording an increased minority interest).

On 8 November 2006, Anglo Platinum announced the conclusion of the BEE          
transaction with the Bakgatla-Ba-Kgafela (Bakgatla) traditional community. In   
terms of this transaction the Bakgatla acquired a 15% interest in Anglo         
Platinum`s Rustenburg Platinum Mines Union section mining and concentrating     
business and interests in prospecting rights of the Rooderand 46 JQ, portion 2  
and Magazynskraal 3 JQ properties. The agreements became unconditional on 1     
December 2006.
