7.375% senior notes due 2021 (the &#147;2021 Notes,&#148; and, together with the 2020 Notes, the &#147;Notes&#148;). In conjunction with the Tender Offer, AES also commenced a solicitation of consents (the &#147;Consent Solicitation&#148; and,
collectively with the Tender Offer, the &#147;Offer&#148;) to amend the indenture governing the Notes to shorten the notice requirements for optional redemption with respect to each series of the Notes from thirty days to three business days (the

entered into a Twenty-Third Supplemental Indenture dated March&nbsp;15, 2018 between the Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and Bank One, National Association (formerly known as The First
National Bank of Chicago), as Trustee (the &#147;Trustee&#148;), to amend the indenture governing the Notes to give effect to the Proposed Amendments (the &#147;Supplemental Indenture&#148;). </P>
