     This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Note”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of April 28, 2010 (herein called the “Indenture” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), among the Company, AngloGold Ashanti Limited, as Guarantor (herein called the “Guarantor”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture) and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any other successor trustee under the Indenture) and reference is hereby made to the Indenture and the Officers’ Certificate dated as of April 28, 2010 issued pursuant to Section 301 of the Indenture (herein called the “Officers’ Certificate”) for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee, and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to U.S.$[ • ].

     The Company may, without the consent of the holders of the Notes of any series, issue additional notes of one or more series having the same ranking and same interest rate, maturity date redemption terms and other terms as the Notes except for the price to the public and issue date, provided, however, that no additional notes may be issued unless they are fungible with the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Any additional notes, together with the Notes, will constitute a single series of securities under the Indenture. There is no limitation on the amount of the Notes or other debt securities that the Company may issue under the Indenture.

     The Notes will be unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company and will rank equally with all of its other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding.

     The Notes of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Notes will initially be issued in the form of one or more global Notes (each, a “Global Note”). Except as provided in the Indenture, a Global Note shall not be exchangeable for one or more definitive Notes.

     If an Event of Default with respect to Notes of this series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes of this series may declare the principal of all of the Notes of this series to be due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

     If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of the Notes of this series and related coupons by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in the Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted therein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

     All payments of, or in respect of, principal of and any premium and interest on any Note of this series, shall be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of a Taxing Jurisdiction, unless such taxes, duties,

assessments or governmental charges are required by such Taxing Jurisdiction to be withheld or deducted. In that event, the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable, will pay such additional amounts of, or in respect of, principal and any premium and interest (“Additional Amounts”) as will result (after deduction of such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges and any additional taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges payable in respect of such) in the payment to each Holder of Notes of the amounts which would have been payable in respect of such Notes or the Guarantees, as the case may be, had no such withholding or deduction been required, except that no Additional Amounts shall be so payable for or on account of:

     (1) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by any jurisdiction other than a Taxing Jurisdiction (including the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein);

     (2) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for (A) the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder or a third party on behalf of such Holder by reason of its (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary member, shareholder or possessor of a power over such Holder, if such Holder is an estate, trust, partnership or corporation) having some present or former connection with a Taxing Jurisdiction (including being or having been a citizen or resident of a Taxing Jurisdiction or being or having been engaged in a trade or business or present therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein, but not including the mere holding or ownership of a debt security), or (B) the presentation of such Note or the Guarantee thereof for payment more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due or was provided for, whichever is later;

     (3) any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge;

     (4) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge which is payable otherwise than by withholding or deduction from payments of (or in respect of) principal of or any premium or interest on the Notes or the Guarantees thereof;

     (5) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of the failure to comply by the Holder or the beneficial owner of a Note with a request of the Company or the Guarantor addressed to the Holder (A) to provide information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Holder or such beneficial owner or (B) to make any declaration or other similar claim or satisfy any information or reporting requirement, which, in the case of (A) or (B), is required or imposed by statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from all or part of such tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

     (6) any withholding or deduction that is imposed on a payment to an individual and required to be made pursuant to any European Union Directive on the taxation of savings implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN (European Union Economic and Finance Ministers) Counsel Meeting of 26-27 November 2000 or any law implementing or complying with or introduced in order to conform to such Directive; or

     (7) any combination of items (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6).

     Additionally, Additional Amounts shall not be paid with respect to any payment in respect of any Note to any Holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had it been the Holder of such Note.

     References herein to the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on, or in respect of, any Note of this series (or any payments pursuant to the Guarantee thereof) such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions herein and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.

     The provisions herein shall apply mutatis mutandis to any withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature of any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Company or the Guarantor is organized, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein.

     The Notes of this series are redeemable at the option of the Company or the Guarantor (or their successors) in whole but not in part at any time at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption (except in the case of Outstanding Original Issue Discount Securities which may be redeemed at the Redemption Price specified by the terms of such series of Notes) if, (i) the Company or the Guarantor is or would be required to pay Additional Amounts as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder of a Taxing Jurisdiction or any change in the official application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, or any change in the official application or interpretation of, or any execution of or amendment to, any treaty or treaties affecting taxation to which a Taxing Jurisdiction is a party, which change, execution or amendment becomes effective on or after the date of issuance of this series on April 28, 2010 (or in the case of a successor Person to the Company or the Guarantor, the date on which such successor Person became such or in the case of an assumption by the Guarantor or its Subsidiaries of obligations of the Company under the Notes, the date of such assumption), or (ii) as a result of any change in the official application or interpretation of, or any execution of or amendment to, any treaty or treaties affecting taxation to which a Taxing Jurisdiction is a party, which change, execution or amendment is proposed and becomes effective on or after a date on which the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries (an “Intercompany Debtor”) borrows money from the Company, the Intercompany Debtor is or would be required to deduct or withhold tax on any payment to the Company to enable the Company to make any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, and the payment of such Additional Amounts, in the case of clause (i), or such deductions or withholding, in the case of clause (ii), cannot be avoided by the use of any reasonable measures available to the Company, the Guarantor or the Intercompany Debtor. Prior to the giving of notice of such redemption, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate, stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth in reasonable detail a statement of circumstances showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Company to redeem such Notes pursuant to the Indenture have been satisfied.

     The Company or the Guarantor may redeem the Notes of this series in whole or in part, at its option at any time and from time to time at a Redemption Price equal to the greater

of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes of such series to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments of principal and interest on the Notes of such series (excluding any portion of such payments of interest accrued or unpaid as of the date of the redemption) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus the Make-whole Spread, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes of this series to be redeemed to the Redemption Date.

     “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolated maturity (on a day count basis) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

     “Comparable Treasury Issue” means the U.S. Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of such series of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such series of the Notes.

     “Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

     “Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (A) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (B) if the Company obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

     “Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of Barclays Capital Inc., Goldman, Sachs & Co. or their affiliates that are primary U.S. Government securities dealers and two other primary U.S. Government securities dealers in New York City selected by the Company, and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing or their affiliates shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City, the Company shall substitute therefor another such primary U.S. Government securities dealer.

     “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Guarantor, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to us by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m. New York City time on the third business day preceding such Redemption Date.

     “Make-whole Spread” means 25 basis points with respect to the 2020 Notes and 30 basis points with respect to the 2040 Notes.

     The Company will mail notice of any redemption at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes of this series to be redeemed or the Trustee shall be requested to send such notice of redemption to each holder of Notes to be redeemed in the name of the Company at its expense. If fewer than all of the Notes of this

series are to be redeemed, the Notes of this series to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee by lot or any other such method as the Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate.

     Unless the Company or the Guarantor defaults in payment of the Redemption Price, on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

          If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs in respect of the Notes of this series, unless either the Company or the Guarantor has exercised its right to redeem the Notes of this series of notes as described above, the Company will make an offer to each Holder of the Notes of this series to repurchase all or any part (in minimal denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes of this series at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101 % of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of this series plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of repurchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the option of the Company, prior to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the proposed Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and offering to repurchase the Notes of this series on the payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, other than as may be required by law. The notice shall, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice. Holders of the Notes of this series electing to have Notes of this series purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Repurchase Event offer will be required to surrender their Notes of this series, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of this Note completed, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice, or transfer their Notes of this series to the Paying Agent by book-entry transfer pursuant to the applicable procedures of the Paying Agent, prior to the close of business on the third business day prior to the repurchase payment date. The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Securities Exchange Act”) and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes of this series as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any applicable securities or corporate laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes of this series, the Company will comply with the applicable securities or corporate laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes of this series by virtue of such conflict.

     On the repurchase date following a Change of Control Repurchase Event, the Company will, to the extent lawful:

     (1) accept for payment all Notes of this series or portions of the Notes of this series properly tendered pursuant to its offer;

     (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price in respect of all the Notes of this series or portions of Notes of this series properly tendered; and

     (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes of this series properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series being purchased by the Company.

     The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes of this series properly tendered the purchase price for the Notes of this series (or make payment through the Depositary), and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note of this series equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes of this series surrendered; provided, however, that each new Note of this series will be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

     The Company will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes of this series issued by it upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Notes of this series properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

     “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:

     (2) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger, scheme of arrangement, amalgamation or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act) (other than a subsidiary of the Guarantor) becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Securities Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the combined voting power of the Guarantor’s Voting Stock or other Voting Stock into which the Guarantor’s Voting Stock is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed measured by voting power rather than number of shares;

     (3) the Guarantor consolidates with, or merges with or into, or enters into a scheme of arrangement with or amalgamates with, any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act), or any person consolidates with, or merges with or into, or enters into a plan or arrangement with, the Guarantor, in any such event pursuant to a transaction in which any of the outstanding Voting Stock of the Guarantor or such other person is converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the shares of the Voting Stock of the Guarantor outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving person or any direct or indirect parent company of the surviving person immediately after giving effect to such transaction;

     (4) the first day on which the majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Guarantor cease to be continuing directors; or

     “Change of Control Repurchase Event” means, provided the Notes of this series are rated Investment Grade by each of the Rating Agencies immediately prior to the occurrence of the Change of Control or the public notice of the intention by the Guarantor to effect the Change of Control, as the case may be, the Notes of this series cease to be rated Investment Grade by each of the Rating Agencies on any date during the 60-day period (which period shall be extended so long as the rating of the applicable series of notes is under publicly announced consideration for a possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies) (the “Trigger Period”) after the earlier of (1) the occurrence of a Change of Control; and (2) public notice of the intention by the Guarantor to effect a Change of Control; provided, however, that a Change of Control Repurchase Event shall be deemed not to have occurred if (A) a Rating Agency that has reduced its rating of the Notes of this series below Investment Grade during the Trigger Period does not announce or publicly confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at the Company’s request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised from or arising as a result of the applicable Change of Control (regardless of whether that Change of Control shall then have occurred) or (B) a rating of the Notes of this series by one of the Rating Agencies is within the Trigger Period subsequently upgraded to an Investment Grade credit rating. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change of Control Repurchase Event will be deemed not to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been consummated.

     “Continuing Director” means, as of any date of determination, any member of the Board of Directors of the Guarantor who:

     (1) was a member of such Board of Directors on the date of the closing of this offering; or

     (2) was nominated for election, elected or appointed to such Board of Directors with the approval of a majority of the Continuing Directors who were members of such Board of Directors at the time of such nomination, election or appointment (either by a specific vote or by approval of the Guarantor’s proxy statement in which such member was named as a nominee for election as a director, without objection to such nomination).

     “Investment Grade” means a rating of Baa3 or better by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of Moody’s); a rating of BBB- or better by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of S&P); and the equivalent Investment Grade credit rating from any additional Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Guarantor as a replacement rating agency or replacement ratings agencies.

     The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness on this Note upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth thereon, which provisions apply to this Note.

     The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company or the Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Notes of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes of such series to waive compliance by the Company or the Guarantor with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

     As set forth in, and subject to, the provisions of the Indenture, no Holder of any Note of this series or any related coupon shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless (i) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes of this series; (ii) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes of this series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee; (iii) such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; (iv) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and (v) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes of this series; it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of the Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any

right under the Indenture, except in the manner provided in the Indenture and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders of Notes of this series.

     No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company, the Guarantor, or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

     Prior to due presentation of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
