Gold Fields Limited 2005 Share Plan and the Gold Fields Limited
2012 Plan, as amended.
PVRS are conditionally awarded and the actual number of PVRS

Gold Fields share price compared to the basket of respective US
dollar share prices of the peer group. The number of shares to be
settled will range from 0% to 300% of the conditional award
