AIG Announces Early Participation Results of Its Maximum Cash Tender Offer and an Increase in the Amount of Notes and Debentures to Be Accepted

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul. 2, 2015-- American International Group, Inc. (NYSE:AIG) today announced the results as of the early participation date of its previously announced cash tender offer for the notes and debentures issued or guaranteed by AIG listed in the table below. As previously announced, the early participation date for the tender offer was 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 1, 2015. The complete terms of the tender offer are set forth in the offer to purchase dated June 18, 2015 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and the related letter of transmittal. The expiration date of the tender offer is 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 16, 2015, unless extended. The payment date for this tender offer will be promptly following its expiration and is expected to be on or about July 20, 2015. Consummation of the tender offer is subject to a number of conditions, including a financing condition (as described in the Offer to Purchase). Withdrawal rights for the tender offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 1, 2015 and have not been extended.

AIG has increased the maximum amount of notes and debentures it can purchase in the tender offer to an aggregate principal amount (U.S. Dollar equivalent) of $3.3 billion. Assuming no notes or debentures are validly tendered after the early participation date, AIG intends to accept for purchase all notes and debentures validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 1, 2015. If the aggregate principal amount of notes or debentures validly tendered prior to the expiration date exceeds $3.3 billion, AIG will accept for payment all notes or debentures validly tendered in accordance with the acceptance priority levels set forth in the table below. If there are sufficient remaining funds to purchase some, but not all, of the remaining tendered notes or debentures at any acceptance priority level without exceeding the tender cap, AIG will accept for payment such tendered notes or debentures on a prorated basis.

As previously announced, the applicable “Reference Yield” and resulting “Total Consideration” for each series of “Fixed Spread” notes and debentures included in the tender offer will be determined (i) with respect to each series of notes or debentures denominated in U.S. Dollars at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, today and (ii) with respect to each series of securities denominated in Sterling or Euro at 3:00 p.m., London time, today. See the Offer to Purchase for additional information.
