Explanation of Responses:
1. Since Mr. Miller's last filing on February 27, 2007, he acquired 459 shares of AES Common stock at an average price of $22.02 pursuant to The AES Retirement Savings Plan. This report is based upon a plan statement dated 07/05/2007.
2. This is a Special Purpose Account distribution under the 2004 Restoration Supplemental Retirement Plan (the "RSRP"). The RSRP is designed primarily to provide participants with supplemental retirement benefits to make up for the fact that participant and company contributions to the AES Corporation 401(k) plan are limited by US federal tax law. A participant may defer up to 50% of his salary and up to 80% of his bonus compensation under the RSRP. Participants may designate up to three separate deferral accounts, each of which may have a different distribution date and a different distribution option. Distributions can be in a lump sum or annually over a period of two to fifteen years. Distributions from Special Purpose Accounts are paid annually beginning on or about February 1 of the year following the year designated by the participant as his distribution date, subject to blackout restrictions.
3. Under the terms of the RSRP, distributions are automatically paid out in cash, not in stock, and Mr. Miller did not have the ability to make (and did not make) an election to convert any shares into cash at or around the time of this distribution.
