| ||
| NEW YORK, March 25, 2015 – American International Group, Inc. (NYSE: AIG) today announced the pricing of certain debt securities issued by AIG subject to its previously announced cash tender offers, pursuant to its offer to purchase dated March 17, 2015. The debt securities for which pricing information was provided are AIG’s 5.450% Medium-Term Notes, Series MP, Matched Investment Program, Due May 18, 2017, and its 5.000 per cent. Notes due 2017.

| The reference yield for the 5.450% Medium-Term Notes corresponds to the bid-side price of the 0.50% U.S. Treasury due February 28, 2017, as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, today. The reference yield for the 5% Notes corresponds to the June 2017 Interpolated Swap Rate, as described in further detail in the offer to purchase, as of 2:00 p.m., London time, today. The reference yields will be used to determine the consideration paid for the 5.450% Medium-Term Notes and the 5% Notes that are accepted for purchase after expiration of the tender offers.
| ||
| The expiration date of the tender offers is 5:00 p.m., New York City time, today, unless extended. Holders who have not already tendered their securities may continue to do so at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, today, in accordance with the procedures described in the offer to purchase and the related letter of transmittal. Holders who validly tender and do not withdraw their 5.450% Medium-Term Notes or 5% Notes prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, today, unless extended, and whose 5.450% Medium-Term Notes or 5% Notes are accepted for purchase pursuant to the tender offers, will receive the total consideration set forth below. Tenders of securities may be validly withdrawn at any time at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, today, but not thereafter.

| 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 the related letter of transmittal.
