(For the 12-month period ending September 30, 2002, the net mark to market gain from FAS No. 133 was $83 million.); (2) Loss on sale or write-down of investments. (In the second quarter of 2002, AES recorded an impairment charge of $40 million on an equity method of investment in a telecommunications company in Latin America, and a loss on the sale of an equity method investment in a telecommunications company in Latin America of approximately $14 million. In the first quarter of 2002, a subsidiary of AES sold an available-for-sale security resulting in gross proceeds of $92 million. The realized loss on the sale was $50 million. Approximately $48 million of the loss related to recognition of previously unrealized losses which had been recorded in other comprehensive income.); (3) Foreign currency transaction losses. (Foreign currency transaction losses due to devaluation in Brazilian Real and devaluation in the Argentina Peso offset by foreign transaction gains in Venezuelan Bolivar. The net foreign currency transaction loss is approximately $284 million.); (4) Discontinued operations. (The schedule excludes net loss of discontinued operations of $513 million consisting mainly of Termocandelaria, IB Valley, Power Direct, telecommunications businesses in Brazil and US, Fifoots, Eletronet, Cilcorp, NewEnergy and Medina Valley.); (5) Accounting change. (In April 2002, AES adopted Derivative Implementation Group (DIG) Issue C-15 which established specific guidelines for certain contracts to be considered normal purchases and normal sales contracts. This resulted in a cumulative effect of an accounting change increase to $127 million, net of income tax effects. On January 1, 2002, AES adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" which establishes accounting and reporting standards for goodwill and other intangible assets. The adoption of SFAS No. 142 resulted in a cumulative reduction to income of $473 million, net of income tax effects.); (6) Provision for regulatory decision in Brazil. (AES has recorded the retroactive regulatory decision by the Brazilian regulator depriving AES Sul of amounts the company believes it was entitled to receive as a reduction in revenue.) If the excluded amounts are taken into account, certain CILCO/CILCORP contributions to AES/CILCORP on a consolidated basis would be different as follows: (5.01%) CILCO to Net Income and (6.44%) CILCORP to Net Income. (2) For purposes of comparison with the prior period, the CILCORP and CILCO data for gross revenues, net operating revenues and operating income were added to AES consolidated data to arrive at AES/CILCORP amounts. 16 ITEM (3) PER EXEMPTION ORDER - GENERATION INFORMATION: AES Generating Plants in Operation at September 30, 2002 (excluding CILCORP and IPALCO): AES AES CAPACITY INTEREST EQUITY REGULATORY UNIT COUNTRY (MW) (%) (MW) STATUS ---- ------- ---- --- ---- ------ AES Deepwater USA 143 100 143 QF AES Beaver Valley USA 125 100 125 QF AES Placerita USA 120 100 120 QF AES Thames USA 181 100 181 QF AES Shady Point USA 320 100 320 QF AES Hawaii USA 180 100 180 QF AES Warrior Run USA 180 100 180 QF AES Somerset USA 675 100 675 EWG AES Cayuga USA 306 100 306 EWG AES Greenidge USA 161 100 161 EWG AES Westover USA 126 100 126 EWG AES Alamitos USA 2,083 100 2,083 EWG AES Redondo Beach USA 1,310 100 1,310 EWG AES Huntington Beach USA 563 100 563 EWG AES Hemphill USA 14 70 10 QF AES Mendota USA 25 100 25 QF AES Delano USA 50 100 50 QF AES Mountainview USA 126 100 126 EWG AES Medina Valley (sale pending) USA 47 100 47 EWG AES Ironwood USA 705 100 705 EWG AES Red Oak USA 832 100 832 EWG AES Riverside* USA 154 100 154 EWG ----- ----- DOMESTIC SUBTOTAL: 8,426 8,422 * Currently in discontinued operations status.
