NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- American International Group, Inc. (NYSE: AIG) today announced the results of its previously announced 23 separate offers (the “Offers”) to purchase for cash the notes of the series listed in the table below (collectively, the “Notes”) and that it has amended the Offers by increasing the applicable Maximum Purchase Consideration from $6.0 billion to $7.06 billion. The Offers were made pursuant to AIG’s Offer to Purchase, dated March 31, 2022 (the “Offer to Purchase”), which sets forth a more comprehensive description of the terms and conditions of each Offer, and the accompanying notice of guaranteed delivery (the “Notice of Guaranteed Delivery” and, together with the Offer to Purchase, the “Tender Offer Documents”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this announcement have the meanings given to them in the Offer to Purchase.

The Offers expired at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on April 6, 2022 (the “Expiration Date”). The Initial Settlement Date will be April 8, 2022 and the Guaranteed Delivery Settlement Date will be April 12, 2022.

According to information provided by Ipreo LLC, the Information Agent and Tender Agent in connection with the Offers, $10,947,117,379.60 combined aggregate principal amount of the Notes (based on exchange rates for the Sterling and Euro Notes (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) of $1.3081 per £1.00 and $1.0914 per €1.00, respectively) were validly tendered prior to or at the Expiration Date and not validly withdrawn. In addition, $76,357,000.00 combined aggregate principal amount of Notes were tendered pursuant to the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) and remain subject to the Holders’ performance of the delivery requirements under such procedures. For purposes of determining whether the Maximum Purchase Consideration has been reached, AIG converted the Total Consideration for each series of the Sterling Notes and the Euro Notes validly tendered into U.S. Dollars using an exchange rate of $1.3081 per £1.00 and $1.0914 per €1.00, respectively. The table below provides certain information about the Offers, including the aggregate principal amount of each series of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date and the aggregate principal amount of Notes reflected in Notices of Guaranteed Delivery delivered at or prior to the Expiration Date pursuant to the Tender Offer Documents.
