Director of Gold Fields Limited has exercised Share Appreciation Rights (SARS)  
which were issued to him in terms of the Gold Fields Limited 2005 Share Plan.   
SARS are allocated at the volume weighted average price of Gold Fields shares   
over the 20 trading days preceding the Grant Date. SARS vest after three years

SARS by issuing shares of the equivalent value or in cash.
