Discontinuance or Revision of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index:
If MMD discontinues publication of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index and MMD or another entity publishes a successor or substitute index that the Calculation Agent determines, in its sole discretion, to be comparable to the discontinued Index (such index, a “Successor Index”), then the Index Rate for each Index Reset Date occurring after such discontinuance will be determined by reference to the level of such Successor Index. If a Successor Index is selected, the Successor Index will be substituted for the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index for all purposes. Upon any selection by the Calculation Agent of a Successor Index, the Calculation Agent will cause written notice thereof to be promptly furnished to the Issuer and to the trustee, which will provide notice to the holders of the notes.
If MMD discontinues publication of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index and the Calculation Agent determines, in its sole discretion, that no Successor Index is available, then following such discontinuance until the earlier of (a) the Maturity Date or (b) the date on which the Calculation Agent determines that a Successor Index is available, the Calculation Agent will

P-3


 

determine the Index Rate for each Index Reset Date occurring after such discontinuance in accordance with the procedures for and method of calculating the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index last in effect prior to such discontinuance.
If the Index Rate for any Index Reset Date is subsequently revised or amended after its publication, such revision or amendment will not be effective for purposes of any calculation with respect to the notes, except in the event of manifest error (as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion).
Examples of Calculation of Interest Rate:
Example 1: Assuming that, during a 180-day Interest Accrual Period, the Rolling LIBOR is less than or equal to 3.35% and the Rolling Ratio is greater than 72.0% on every calendar day in such Interest Accrual Period, then on the applicable Interest Payment Date, the Interest Rate for the applicable Interest Accrual Period would be 7.50% calculated as follows: 7.50% x 180/180 = 7.50% per annum.
Example 2: Assuming that, during a 180-day Interest Accrual Period, the Rolling LIBOR is greater than 3.35% and the Rolling Ratio is less than or equal to 72.0% on every calendar day in such Interest Accrual Period, then on the applicable Interest Payment Date, the Interest Rate for the applicable Interest Accrual Period would be 7.50% calculated as follows: 7.50% x 180/180 = 7.50% per annum.
Example 3: Assuming that, during a 180-day Interest Accrual Period, the Rolling LIBOR is greater than 3.35% and the Rolling Ratio is greater than 72.0% on every calendar day in such Interest Accrual Period, then on the applicable Interest Payment Date, the Interest Rate for the applicable Interest Accrual Period would be 0.00% calculated as follows: 7.50% x 0/180 = 0.00% per annum.
Example 4: Assuming that, during a 180-day Interest Accrual Period, on the first 90 calendar days in such Interest Accrual Period, the Rolling LIBOR is less than or equal to 3.35% and the Rolling Ratio is greater than 72.0%, and on the remaining 90 calendar days in such Interest Accrual Period, the Rolling Ratio is less than or equal to 72.0% and the Rolling LIBOR is greater than 3.35%, then on the applicable Interest Payment Date, the Interest Rate for the applicable Interest Accrual Period would be 7.50% calculated as follows: 7.50% x (90 + 90)/180 = 7.50% x 180/180 = 7.50% per annum.
Example 5: Assuming that, during a 180-day Interest Accrual Period, on 30 calendar days in such Interest Accrual Period, the Rolling LIBOR is less than or equal to 3.35% and the Rolling Ratio is greater than 72.0%, on another 30 calendar days in such Interest Accrual Period, the Rolling LIBOR is greater than 3.35% and the Rolling Ratio is less than or equal to 72.0%, on another 30 calendar days in such Interest Accrual Period, the Rolling LIBOR is less than or equal to 3.35% and the Rolling Ratio is less than or equal to 72.0%, and on the remaining calendar days in such Interest Accrual Period, the Rolling LIBOR is greater than 3.35% and the Rolling Ratio is greater than 72.0%, then on the applicable Interest Payment Date, the Interest Rate for the applicable Interest Accrual Period would be 3.75% calculated as follows: 7.50% x (30 + 30 + 30)/180 = 7.50% x 90/180 = 3.75% per annum.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in the notes involves a number of significant risks not associated with similar investments in a conventional debt security, including, but not limited to, fluctuations in 3m USD LIBOR and the level of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index and other events that are difficult to predict and beyond AIG’s control. Accordingly, prospective investors should consult their financial and legal advisors as to the risks entailed by an investment in the notes and the suitability of the notes in light of their particular circumstances.
Limitations on Returns on the notes.
The interest payable on the notes is uncertain, and movements in 3m USD LIBOR and the level of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index will affect whether or not and the extent to which you will receive interest on the notes in any Interest Accrual Period.
The maximum Interest Rate on the notes is, at all times, 7.50%. However, for every day during an Interest Accrual Period on which the Rolling Ratio is greater than 72.0% and the Rolling LIBOR is greater than 3.35%, the Interest Rate for the related Interest Accrual Period will be reduced, and accordingly, your return for any Interest Accrual Period over the life of the notes could be significantly less than maximum Interest Rate for that Interest Accrual Period. If on every day in an Interest Accrual Period both (i) the Rolling Ratio is greater than 72.0% and (ii) the Rolling LIBOR is greater than 3.35%, the Interest Rate for such Interest Accrual Period will be zero.
Historical performance of 3m USD LIBOR and the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index should not be taken as an indication of the future performance of 3m USD LIBOR or the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index during the term of the notes.
It is impossible to predict whether 3m USD LIBOR and the level of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index will increase or decrease. 3m USD LIBOR and the level of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index will both be influenced by complex and interrelated political, economic, financial and other factors; therefore, the historical performance of 3m USD LIBOR or the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index should not be taken as an indication of future performance thereof during the term of the notes.
Factors that may affect the level of 3m USD LIBOR and the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index include monetary policy, interest rate volatility, interest rate levels and the inflation rate.
Please note that historical trends are not indicative of future behavior of 3m USD LIBOR or of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index.
Many factors affect the trading value of the notes; these factors interrelate in complex ways and the effect of any one factor may offset or magnify the effect of another factor.
The trading value of the notes will be affected by factors that interrelate in complex ways. The effect of one factor may offset the increase in the trading value of the notes caused by another factor and the effect of one factor may exacerbate the decrease in the trading value of the notes caused by another factor. The following paragraphs describe the expected impact on the trading value of the notes given a change in a specific factor, assuming all other conditions remain constant.
The levels of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index and 3m USD LIBOR are expected to affect the trading value of the notes. We expect that the trading value of the notes will depend substantially on the number of calendar days on which either (i) the Rolling Ratio is less than or equal to 72.0% or (ii) the Rolling LIBOR is less than or equal to 3.35%, and future expectations of the number of calendar days on which either (i) the Rolling Ratio is less than or equal to 72.0% or (ii) the Rolling LIBOR is less than or equal to 3.35%. In general, the value of the notes will increase when (i) the Rolling Ratio decreases and/or (ii) when the Rolling LIBOR decreases.
Changes in the volatility of the level of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index and 3m USD LIBOR are expected to affect the trading value of the notes. Volatility is the term used to describe the size and frequency of price and/or market fluctuations. If the volatility of the respective levels of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index and 3m USD LIBOR increases or decreases, the trading value of the notes may be adversely affected.

P-5


 

Changes in the levels of interest rates are expected to affect the trading value of the notes. We expect that the changes in interest rates will affect the trading value of the notes. Generally, if United States interest rates increase, we expect the trading value of the notes will decrease and, conversely, if United States interest rates decrease, we expect the trading value of the notes will increase.
Changes in our credit ratings may affect the trading value of the notes. Our credit ratings are an assessment of our ability to pay our obligations. Consequently, real or anticipated changes in our credit ratings may affect the trading value of the notes. However, because the return on your notes is dependent upon factors in addition to our ability to pay our obligations under the notes, such as the number of calendar days over the term of the notes on which either (i) the Rolling Ratio is less than or equal to 72.0% or (ii) the Rolling LIBOR is less than or equal to 3.35%, an improvement in our credit ratings will not reduce the other investment risks related to the notes.
In general, assuming all relevant factors are held constant, we expect that the effect on the trading value of the notes of a given change in some of the factors listed above will be less if it occurs later in the term of the notes than if it occurs earlier in the term of the notes.
A number of factors can affect the ratio of the level of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index to 3m USD LIBOR.
The amount of interest, if any, payable on the notes will depend, in part, on the number of calendar days on which the level of the Rolling Ratio is less than or equal to 72.0%. A number of factors can affect this ratio by causing changes in the relative values of 3m USD LIBOR and the level of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index, including (among others):
Changes in or perceptions about future marginal tax rates. Generally, decreases in, or a perception that there will be decreases in, marginal tax rates are expected to increase the ratio.
Changes or uncertainty with respect to the tax-exempt nature of municipal securities. Generally, changes in the tax laws that have an adverse effect on the tax-exempt nature of municipal securities are expected to increase the ratio.
Changes in the tax treatment of comparable securities. Changes in the tax laws that grant securities other than municipal securities favorable tax treatment to investors may adversely impact market demand for and pricing of municipal securities generally; such a development is expected to increase the ratio.
Relative supply and demand for tax-exempt and taxable debt in their respective marketplaces and other factors affecting pricing of tax-exempt debt.: A relative decline in demand for or an increase in supply of tax-exempt debt caused by factors other than tax rates or other factors negatively impacting pricing of tax-exempt debt could increase the ratio of the level of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index to the level of 3m USD LIBOR, to the extent that the level of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index increases relative to 3m USD LIBOR as a result of these developments; such other factors include fragmentation in the municipal securities market that can lead to aberrational pricing as well as periods of illiquidity and the possibility of uncertainty with respect to the rights of investors holding these securities.
These and other factors may have a negative impact on the payment of interest on the notes. In addition, these and other factors may have a negative impact on the price you may receive in connection with a sale of the notes prior to maturity.
The SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index is produced by Municipal Market Data (“MMD”), which is not affiliated with us, and we cannot assure you as to the quality of their work or whether they will continue to publish the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index.
The SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index is produced by a third party source, and we cannot assure you as to the quality of MMD’s work in producing the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index, including their weekly reset of variable-rate demand obligation (“VRDO”) rates and issues. In addition, we cannot assure you that MMD or a successor will continue to produce the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index. In the event that the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index is no longer published, another measure of tax-exempt VRDO rates will be employed in lieu of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index values required to calculate the Interest Rate. We cannot assure you that rates used in lieu of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index will be accurate assessments of the average tax-exempt VRDO rates that the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index is currently intended to assess.

There may not be an active trading market in the notes and sales prior to maturity may result in losses.
There may be little or no secondary market for the notes. We do not intend to list the notes on any stock exchange or automated quotation system, and it is not possible to predict whether a secondary market will develop for the notes. Even if a secondary market for the notes develops, it may not provide significant liquidity or result in trading of notes at prices advantageous to you. Sales in the secondary market may result in significant losses. The Agent currently intends to act as market maker for the notes, but it is not required to do so, and may stop doing so at any time. We expect there will be little or no liquidity in the notes. The prices that may be offered in the secondary market for the notes will be discounted to reflect hedging and other costs and, among other things, changes of and volatility in interest rates in the market.
You will not have any rights with respect to any VRDOs comprising the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index.
You will not own or have any beneficial or other legal interest in, and will not be entitled to any rights with respect to, any VRDOs underlying the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index. An investment in the notes does not constitute an investment in any VRDO underlying the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index. In addition, the interest you earn on the notes, if any, is not tax-exempt.
The inclusion of compensation and projected profits from hedging in the original issue price is likely to adversely affect secondary market prices.
Assuming no change in market conditions or any other relevant factors, the price, if any, at which we, any of our affiliates or any market maker are willing to purchase the notes in secondary market transactions will likely be lower, and may be materially lower, than the price at which we sold the notes to the Agent. In addition, any such prices may differ from values determined by pricing models used by us or any of our affiliates or any market maker as a result of dealer discounts, mark-ups or other transactions.
We may have conflicts of interests arising from our relationships with the Calculation Agent.
You should be aware that AIG-FP, our subsidiary, in its capacity as Calculation Agent for the notes, is under no obligation to take your interests into consideration in determining the number of days on which interest will accrue, and is only required to act in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner. AIG-FP as Calculation Agent will, among other things, also determine the applicable Interest Rate payment to be made on the notes. Because these determinations by the Calculation Agent will affect the interest payments and the payment at maturity on the notes, conflicts of interest may arise in connection with its performance of its role as Calculation Agent.

THE SIFMA® MUNICIPAL SWAP INDEX
Unless otherwise stated, we have derived all information regarding the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association® Municipal Swap Index (the “SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index”) (formerly known as the Bond Market Association Municipal Swap Index) provided in this pricing supplement, including its composition, method of calculation and changes in components, from publicly available sources and other sources we believe to be reliable. Such information reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association® (“SIFMA®”) and/or Municipal Market Data, a Thomson Financial Services Company (“MMD”). MMD is under no obligation to continue to produce, and may discontinue or suspend the production of, the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index at any time. We do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any information relating to the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index.
The SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index was created by SIFMA® and is produced by MMD. The SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index is a weekly high-grade market index comprised of tax-exempt VRDOs from MMD’s database of more than 15,000 active VRDO issues.
The SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index is calculated on a weekly basis, and released to subscribers each Thursday. The actual number of issues that make up the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index will vary over time as issues mature or are called, converted, or newly issued. In addition, if changes occur which violate the criteria or calculation methods of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index, an issue will be dropped. The qualification criteria for the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index have been established by a subcommittee of SIFMA®. Typically, the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index has included 650 issues in any given week.
Computation of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index
To be eligible for inclusion in the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index, an issue must meet the following criteria:
  (1)   be a weekly reset, effective on Wednesday (no lag resets considered);
 
  (2)   not be subject to Alternative Minimum Tax;
 
  (3)   have an outstanding amount of $10 million or more;
 
  (4)   have the highest short-term rating (VMIG1 by Moody’s or A-1+ by S&P); and
 
  (5)   pay interest on a monthly basis, calculated on an actual/actual basis.
In addition, only one quote per obligor per remarketing agent will be included in the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index. Issues from all states are eligible for inclusion.
The following are considered in the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index calculation:
  (1)   The standard deviation of the rates is calculated. Any issue falling outside of +/- 1.0 standard deviations is dropped;
 
  (2)   Each participating remarketing agent is limited to no more than 15% of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index by an averaging method;
For reference purposes only, the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index is available on Bloomberg under MUNIPSA INDEX <GO> or through SIFMA® at www.sifma.org.
Historical Data on the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index

The notes originate from and are provided by AIG, and are not the responsibility of, associated with, or sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by SIFMA®. SIFMA® makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, to the holder of the notes or to any member of the public regarding the advisability of investing in securities generally or in the notes particularly or the fitness of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index for any particular use or purpose. SIFMA®’s only relationship to AIG and its subsidiaries, including AIG-FP (other than transactions entered into in the ordinary course of business), is the licensing of certain service marks and trade names of SIFMA® and of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index which is determined, composed and calculated by MMD without regard to AIG, its subsidiaries or holders of the notes. SIFMA® has no obligation to take the needs of AIG, its subsidiaries or the holders of the notes into consideration in connection with the publication, determination, composition or calculation of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index. SIFMA® is not responsible for and has not participated in the determination of the timing or sale of the notes, prices at which the notes are initially to be sold, or quantities of the notes to be issued or in the determination or calculation of the equation by which interest is payable on the notes. SIFMA® has no obligation or liability in connection with the administration, marketing or trading of the notes.
The SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index is calculated using information that MMD considers reliable but neither MMD nor SIFMA® represents that the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index is accurate or complete and it should not be relied upon as such by AIG, AIG-FP, the trustee of the indenture under which the notes are offered or holders of the notes. In addition, the methodology used to calculate the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index may change from time to time, and SIFMA® reserves the right to discontinue publication of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index at any time. In no event shall SIFMA® have any liability to AIG, its subsidiaries and holders of the notes or any other third party for damages of any kind incident to the use of the SIFMA® Municipal Swap Index.
ERISA CONSIDERATIONS
The notes may not be purchased or held by any employee benefit plan or other plan or account that is subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) or Section 4975 of the Code (each, a “plan”), or by any entity whose underlying assets include “plan assets” by reason of any plan’s investment in the entity (a “plan asset entity”), unless in each case the purchaser or holder is eligible for exemptive relief from the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code under a prohibited transaction class exemption issued by the Department of Labor or another applicable statutory or administrative exemption. Each purchaser or holder of the notes will be deemed to represent that either (1) it is not a plan or plan asset entity and is not purchasing the notes on behalf of or with plan assets or (2) with respect to the purchase and holding, it is eligible for relief under a prohibited transaction class exemption or other applicable statutory or administrative exemption from the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code. The foregoing supplements the discussion under ERISA Considerations in the base prospectus dated July 13, 2007.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We intend to lend the net proceeds from the sale of the notes to our subsidiary AIG-FP or certain of its subsidiaries for use for general corporate purposes.

CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
For the reasons described below, we believe that the notes should be characterized as “variable rate” notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes and we intend to treat the notes as such. For a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning variable rate notes, please see the description under the heading “United States Taxation — United States Holders — Original Issue Discount — Variable Rate Notes” in the accompanying prospectus supplement.
Under the applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations governing original issue discount on debt instruments, a debt instrument is a “variable rate” note if it provides for interest at an “objective rate” (that is, a rate determined using a single interest rate formula based on objective financial or economic information), unless the notes are reasonably expected to provide for significant “front-loading” or “back-loading” of interest. We do not expect there to be significant “front-loading” or “back-loading” of interest payments on the notes, and therefore the notes would qualify as “variable rate notes.”

You should be aware that our expectations regarding “front-loading” and “back-loading” of interest are only applicable for purposes of determining the tax treatment of your notes. We are not making any representation or prediction regarding the actual amount of interest that may be payable on your note.
Alternatively, if the notes were found to have significant “front-loading” or “back-loading of interest”, it is possible that your notes could be characterized as contingent payment obligations subject to rules described under the heading “United States Taxation — United States Holders — Original Issue Discount — Notes Subject to the Contingent Payment Obligation Rules” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. In that case, among other differences, as more completely described in the prospectus supplement, United States Holders of the notes that otherwise use the cash receipts and disbursements method of accounting would be required to use an accrual method of accounting in determining their income from ownership of the notes, and gain from a sale, redemption or exchange of the notes would be treated as ordinary income rather than capital gain.
