AIG ANNOUNCES FINAL RESULTS OF ITS TENDER OFFERS

NEW YORK, March 19, 2013 – American International Group, Inc. (NYSE: AIG) today announced the final results as of 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on March 18, 2013 (the “Expiration Date”) of its previously announced tender offers for (i) certain of AIG’s junior subordinated debentures denominated in sterling and euros (the “Sterling and Euro Debentures”), (ii) certain of AIG’s junior subordinated debentures denominated in U.S. dollars (the “Dollar Debentures”) and (iii) the capital securities issued by three statutory trusts controlled by SunAmerica Financial Group Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of AIG (“SAFG”), that hold junior subordinated debentures issued by SAFG and guaranteed by AIG and senior debentures originally issued by SunAmerica Inc. and assumed by AIG (collectively, the “SAFG Securities” and, together with the Sterling and Euro Debentures and the Dollar Debentures, the “Securities”), pursuant to its offer to purchase dated February 19, 2013 (the “Offer to Purchase”). 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 completion of the tender offers shows that AIG continues to deliver on its capital management goals while illustrating its financial flexibility,” said Robert H. Benmosche, President and Chief Executive Officer of AIG.

AIG also announced that it will purchase the maximum principal amount of Sterling and Euro Debentures that it can purchase at the prices set forth below for an aggregate purchase price (excluding accrued interest) of $429,821,726.71. The tender offer caps for the Dollar Debentures and the SAFG Securities remain unchanged. AIG will accept for purchase all Securities validly tendered at a bid spread equal to or greater than the applicable Clearing Spread set forth below, which results in an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1.316 billion (including an aggregate of approximately $32.8 million in respect of accrued interest and distributions on accepted Securities).

As of the Expiration Date, the principal or liquidation amount of Securities of each series outstanding and validly tendered and accepted by AIG, the final Clearing Spread and the Total Consideration per £1,000, €1,000 or $1,000 principal or liquidation amount were as follows:
