November 10, 2008 hp-1261 Treasury to Invest in AIG Restructuring Under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act Washington, DC-- The Treasury Department today announced that it will purchase $40 billion in senior preferred stock from the American International Group (AIG) as part of a comprehensive plan to restructure federal assistance to the systemically important company. Together with steps taken by the Federal Reserve, this restructuring will improve the ability of the firm to execute its asset disposition plan in an orderly manner. AIG will use the equity to pay down $40 billion of the Federal Reserve's secured lending facility. Under the agreement AIG must be in compliance with the executive compensation and corporate governance requirements of Section 111 of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act. AIG must comply with the most stringent limitations on executive compensation for its top five senior executive officers as required under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act. Treasury is also requiring golden parachute limitations and a freeze on the size of the annual bonus pool for the top 70 company executives. Additionally, AIG must continue to maintain and enforce newly adopted restrictions put in place by the new management on corporate expenses and lobbying as well as corporate governance requirements, including formation of a risk management committee under the board of directors. Treasury exercised its authority to purchase troubled assets under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act. -30REPORTS AIG Term Sheet http://web.archive.org/web/20090223104203/http://ustreas.gov/press/releases/hp1261.htm[1/16/2015 4:51:37 PM]
