None of the Directors and officers of Gold Fields or, to the knowledge of Gold Fields, their families, had any interest,

affected or will materially affect Gold Fields or its investment interests or subsidiaries, other than as stated below.

At 31 December 2023, the Executive Committee and Non-executive Directors’ beneficial interest in the issued and

exceeds 1% of the issued stated capital or voting control of the Company.
Non-executive Directors (“NEDs”)
NEDs’ fees reflect their services as Directors and services on various subcommittees on which they serve.
NEDs do not participate in any of the short- or long-term incentive plans and there are no arrangements in place for
compensation to be awarded in the case of loss of office.
The Remuneration Committee seeks to align NEDs’ fees to the median of an appropriate peer group and reviews fee
structures for NEDs on an annual basis. Approval is sought from shareholders after recommendation by the Board at
the Annual General Meeting.
