Dear Mr. Rosenberg:
We have previously advised the Staff that we expected to be in a position
to provide a response through an EDGAR filing no later than August 8, 2008. As
I indicated in my conversation with Mr. Wyman on August 6th, our focus was
necessarily on the completion of our Form 10-Q, where we included enhancements
to our disclosure in response to the Staffs comments, and we now expect to be
in a position to provide our response through an EDGAR filing by August 15. We
are pleased to have the opportunity to work with the Staff on AIGs responses,
and especially appreciate the time that Mr. Wyman spent discussing the comments
with us on July 15th and 16th.
Thank you again for your consideration. If you have any questions or require any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at (212) 770-5123.
