Dispositions Cartagena ― On February 9, 2012, a subsidiary of the Company completed the sale of 80% of its interest in the wholly-owned holding company of AES Energia Cartagena S.R.L. (“AES Cartagena”), a 1,199 MW gas-fired generation business in Spain. The Company owned approximately 70.81% of AES Cartagena through this holding company structure, as well as 100% of a related operations and maintenance company. Net proceeds from the sale were approximately €172 million ($229 million) and during the first quarter of 2012, the Company recognized a pretax gain of $178 million on the transaction. Under the terms of the sale agreement, the buyer, Electrabel International Holdings B.V. (“Electrabel”), a subsid iary of GDF SUEZ S.A. or “GDFS”, has an option to purchase the Company's remaining 20% interest at a fixed price of €28 million ($37 million) during a five month period beginning March 20 13. O f the total proceeds received, approximately $9 million was deferred and allocated to Electrabel's option to purchase the Company's remaining interest. In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company received $9 million in dividends from its 20% ownership of AES Cartag ena, of which $5 million was deferred and allocated to Electrabel's option to purchase the Company's remaining interest. Concurrent with the sale, GDFS settled the outstanding arbitration between the parties regarding certain emissions costs and other taxes that AES Cartagena sought to recover from GDFS as energy manager under the existing commercial arrangements. GDFS agreed to pay €71 million ($95 million) to AES Cartagena for such costs incurred by AES Cartagena for the 2008-2010 period and for 2011 through the date of sale close, of which €28 million ($38 million) was paid at closing.
