NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun. 26, 2014-- American International Group, Inc. (NYSE:AIG) today announced the results as of the Early Participation Date of its previously announced cash tender offers for the junior subordinated debentures issued or guaranteed by AIG listed in the table below under the caption “Junior Tender Offer” (the “Junior Debt Securities”) and the senior notes and debentures issued or guaranteed by AIG listed in the table below under the caption “Senior Tender Offer” (the “Senior Debt Securities” and, together with the Junior Debt Securities, the “Securities”), pursuant to its offer to purchase dated June 12, 2014 (the “Offer to Purchase”). AIG also announced increases in the maximum aggregate principal amounts of Junior Debt Securities and Senior Debt Securities AIG can purchase in the tender offers. The maximum aggregate purchase price for securities purchased in the Junior Tender Offer has been increased to $1.8 billion, and the maximum aggregate purchase price for securities purchased in the Senior Tender Offer has been increased to $700 million.

As previously announced, the Early Participation Date for the tender offers was 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 25, 2014. The complete terms of the tender offers, including certain capitalized terms used but not defined herein, are set forth in the Offer to Purchase and, as applicable, the related letter of transmittal. The expiration date of the tender offers is 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 10, 2014, unless extended (the “Expiration Date”).

Holders who validly tendered and did not withdraw their Securities on or prior to the Early Participation Date, and whose Securities are accepted for purchase pursuant to the tender offers, will receive the Total Consideration set forth in the table below, which includes an early participation amount of $50, £50 or €50 per $1,000, £1,000 or €1,000 principal amount, as applicable, of Securities validly tendered and accepted for purchase (the “Early Participation Amount”). Holders validly tendering their Securities after the Early Participation Date and on or prior to the Expiration Date will not be entitled to receive the Early Participation Amount. The Payment Date will be promptly following the Expiration Date and is expected to be on or about July 14, 2014. Withdrawal rights for the tender offers have expired and have not been extended.

As of the Early Participation Date, the principal amount of Securities of each series outstanding and validly tendered and not validly withdrawn, the Acceptance Priority Level (where applicable) and the Total Consideration per $1,000, £1,000 or €1,000 principal amount were as follows:

(1) The Total Consideration payable for each $1,000, £1,000 or €1,000 principal amount of Securities validly tendered on or prior to the Early Participation Date and accepted for purchase includes the Early Participation Amount and assumes a Payment Date of July 14, 2014. Holders whose Securities are accepted in the Tender Offers will also receive accrued and unpaid interest from the last interest payment date to but not including the Payment Date.

The tender offers were oversubscribed. Accordingly, AIG will accept all Junior Debt Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn on a prorated basis, as described in the Offer to Purchase. If no additional Securities are validly tendered after the Early Participation Date, AIG will accept all Senior Debt Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn with Acceptance Priority Levels 1 through 4, and the Senior Debt Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn with an Acceptance Priority Level of 5 will be accepted on a prorated basis, as described in the Offer to Purchase. No Senior Debt Securities having Acceptance Priority Levels of 6 to 9 will be accepted by AIG.
