Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Employee Benefits Committee
Aaron Rents, Inc. Employees Retirement Plan and Trust

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Aaron Rents, Inc. Employees Retirement Plan and Trust as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2006, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2006

1. Description of the Plan

The following description of Aaron Rents, Inc. Employees Retirement Plan and Trust (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only. More complete information regarding items such as vesting, benefit provisions, and Plan termination may be found in the Summary Plan Description, which has been distributed to all participants, and the Plan document, which is available to all participants upon request.

The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all employees of Aaron Rents, Inc. (the Company). Any employee of the Company who attains 21 years of age and has completed one year of service (as defined in the Plan document) is eligible to participate in the Plan. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA).

The Plan is administered by the Employee Benefit Committee (the Committee) appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company. The duties of the Committee include interpretation of the Plan agreement, determination of benefits due participants, and authorization of disbursements from the net assets available for benefits.

Participation is voluntary and participants may contribute up to ten percent of their annual compensation in the form of a salary deferral, thereby deferring related income tax pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code). Participants may also contribute up to an additional ten percent of their aggregate annual compensation paid by the Company during all years they have been a participant under the Plan and any other qualified retirement plan adopted by the Company; however, income taxes on this additional portion of the participant’s compensation may not be deferred. The Company matches 50% of the first 4% of compensation that a participant contributes to the Plan.

Individual accounts are maintained for each participant. Investment income earned by the Plan is allocated to participants’ accounts based upon relative balances of the individual accounts as of the valuation date for which the allocation is being made. At the discretion of the Company, forfeitures may reduce the matching contribution required for the current Plan year or may be allocated to participants’ accounts pro rata based on compensation. In 2006 and 2005, the Company chose to reduce its matching contribution by forfeitures of $68,217 and $50,309, respectively.

Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and earnings thereon. The Plan provides for 20% vesting of all Company contributions after two years of service are completed with subsequent vesting at an additional 20% per service year until the participant is fully vested.

A participant’s total account balance is payable either in a lump-sum distribution or by regular periodic installments upon his or her retirement, death, or disability. Upon termination of service, only the vested portion of the participant’s account becomes payable. In the event of a participant’s death or permanent and total disability, his or her interest in the Plan will become fully vested.

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination (or permanent discontinuance of contributions to the Plan), all amounts credited to the accounts of the participants will become 100% vested. The Plan’s assets will be distributable to the participants in accordance with the respective values of their accounts.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accounting records of the Plan are based on the accrual basis.

Valuation of Investments

Participation units or shares owned by the Plan in collective trusts, mutual funds, and Aaron Rents, Inc. common stock investments are reported at fair value. These fair values are based on quoted net asset value per unit or per share on the last business day of the Plan year, as determined by SunTrust Bank (the Trustee) based upon the quoted market or redemption values of the underlying investments.

The Plan adopted FASB Staff Position AAG INV-1 and SOP 94-4-1, Reporting of Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts Held by Certain Investment Companies Subject to the AICPA Investment Company Guide and Defined-Contribution Health and Welfare and Pension Plans (the FSP) in the current year. For the Plan’s investment in the collective trust, the SunTrust Retirement Stable Asset Fund, the contract value approximates fair value.

Administrative Costs

The Company pays all administrative costs of the Plan.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates and the differences could be significant.

3. Investments

During 2006 and 2005, the Plan’s investments (including investments purchased, sold, and held during the year) appreciated (depreciated) in fair value as determined by SunTrust Bank (the Trustee):

		December 31
		2006				2005
Common stock (Quoted Market Prices)		$	2,002,664			$	(997,943	)
Common trust funds (Quoted Redemption Value)			682,757				(33,079	)
		$	2,685,421			$	(1,031,022	)

Investments that represent 5% or more of the value of the Plan’s net assets are as follows:

		December 31
		2006				2005
Aaron Rents, Inc. Common Stock		$	7,494,619			$	5,439,177
SunTrust Bank:
AllianceBernstein Balanced Shares A			2,392,431				—
STI Classic Capital Appreciation Fund			2,020,544				1,666,513
SunTrust Retirement Stable Asset Fund B			3,511,283				3,204,170
STI Classic Large Cap Value Fund			4,527,209				3,760,806
STI Small Cap Value Fund			2,454,756				1,962,018
Franklin Small-Mid Cap Growth Fund			1,435,594				1,164,126

4. Income Tax Status

The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated August 28, 2003, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation, subject to the adoption of a proposed amendment dated October 25, 2002. Subsequent to this determination by the Internal Revenue Service, the Plan was amended. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The plan sponsor has indicated that it will take the necessary steps, if any, to bring the Plan’s operations into compliance with the Code.

5. Transactions with Parties-in-Interest

Certain Plan investments are shares of funds managed by SunTrust Bank. SunTrust Bank is the Plan’s Trustee and, therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions.

The Plan held 260,410 and 258,025 shares of Aaron Rents, Inc. Common Stock valued at $7,494,619 and $5,439,177 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The Plan received $14,508 and $13,636 in dividends from Aaron Rents, Inc. Common Stock in 2006 and 2005, respectively.

6. Risks and Uncertainties

The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.
