million shares in Gold Fields, representing approximately 6.1% of the issued share capital of Gold Fields, to a broad range of institutional investors. The Gold Fields shares, which are listed on a number of international stock exchanges including
the JSE Securities Exchange South Africa and the New York Stock Exchange (in the form of American Depositary Receipts), were sold for a cash consideration of approximately R2.1 billion (US$315 million), representing a price of R83.80 (US$10.50) per
Gold Fields share before expenses. HSBC acted as the bookrunner for the sale. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">Following completion of the placement, Harmony holds 26,629,409 Gold Fields shares, representing approximately 5.4% in the issued share capital Gold Fields, which it plans to retain in the interim to allow it to participate in any
appropriate re-structuring of Gold Fields that should eventuate. Harmony believes that there is a reasonable chance that Gold Fields will be restructured in a way that could potentially allow it to participate in the restructuring. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Harmony believes that the invitation by Gold Fields to appoint Norilsk Nickel to its board
circumvented its potential to deploy its entire Gold Fields stake strategically. The proceeds from the placement will be utilised to retire short term debt and ensure funding of the company&#146;s Hidden Valley Project in Papa New Guinea. This
growth project, which is planned to commence construction in July 2005, will add approximately 300 000 ounces to Harmony&#146;s gold production base and 4,0 million ounces of silver production. One of the considerations behind Harmony&#146;s
decision to self-fund Hidden Valley was its desire to remain unhedged as a decision to project finance Hidden Valley would likely have required part of Hidden Valley&#146;s production to be hedged. Harmony is also considering the buy back of its own
shares in terms of existing approval from its shareholders. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Harmony has
consciously remained internally focused despite the complications surrounding the proposed merger with Gold Fields and will continue to do so. Harmony&#146;s re-structuring is nearing completion and Harmony has continued to spend on building growth
projects of which Hiddey Valley is the newest. The process of completion of Harmony&#146;s current project portfolio will substantially enhance the quality of Harmony&#146;s asset portfolio. </FONT></P> <P
