On May 22, 2015, Sharon A. Virag announced her resignation from the Company effective May 31, 2015 to accept a position at another company.   Ms. Virag served as Vice-President and Controller of The AES Corporation (“AES” or the “Company”) since April of 2013.
On May 22, 2015, AES appointed Mr. Fabian E. Souza to the position of Vice President and Controller effective June 1, 2015 (the “Effective Date”).  Mr. Souza, age 44, has held several positions with AES since joining the Company in October of 2004, including Vice-President, Internal Audit and Advisory Services (October 2014-present); Deputy Corporate Controller (July 2014- September 2014); Assistant Corporate Controller, Global Controllership (May 2013 – June 2014); Controller, Global Utilities (October 2011- April 2013); and Regional Controller (October 2004 - September 2011).

Prior to that, he served as Assistant Controller at Carey International Inc. (a global travel services company) and Divisional Controller at Diveo Broadband Networks, Inc. (a broadband internet and data center company primarily based in Latin America). Fabian began his career in public accounting with Arthur Andersen LLP in 1992 and was promoted to the position of Experienced Manager in 1998, serving both private and public audit clients. He received a Bachelor of Science in Accounting degree from Wake Forest University and is a Certified Public Accountant.
