 23 February 2022
 Anglo American appoints Ian Tyler as Senior Independent Director

Anglo American plc ("Anglo American") announces that Ian Tyler will succeed
Byron Grote as the Senior Independent Director on its Board, with effect from
Anglo American's AGM on 19 April 2022 when Dr Grote steps down from the Board
having served for nine years.

 

Ian Tyler joined Anglo American's Board as a non-executive director and a
member of the Audit and Remuneration committees on 1 January 2022. He will
succeed Anne Stevens as chair of the Remuneration Committee on 19 April 2022.
Mr Tyler has served as chairman of Vistry Group PLC since 2013. He has also
served as a non-executive director of BAE Systems plc since 2013 and will step
down from both roles in May 2022.

 

Dr Grote is also designated by the Board to chair and engage with Anglo
American's Global Workforce Advisory Panel, established in 2019 to facilitate
direct engagement between the Board and employees. This panel ensures that
employees' views are better understood and considered in Board decisions and
helps non-executive board members better understand how culture, purpose and
values are connected and embedded across Anglo American. The Board has agreed
the appointment of Marcelo Bastos to succeed Byron Grote as chair of the
Global Workforce Advisory Panel, with effect from 19 April 2022. Mr Bastos
joined the Board as a non-executive director in 2019.

 

Commenting on the appointments, Stuart Chambers, Chairman of Anglo American,
said: "We again recognise Byron for his extensive contributions to the Board
and the committees he chaired and on which he served, and for his tireless
commitment to the work of our Global Workforce Advisory Panel. I thank Ian
Tyler for taking on the senior independent role in addition to his committee
duties, and Marcelo Bastos for agreeing to chair our workforce panel - an ever
more important interface for us as a Board."

 

This announcement satisfies Anglo American's disclosure obligations in
accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.11 (3).
