AIG Further Extends the Expiration Time for the Tender Offers for all Notes and Consent Solicitations for the SunAmerica Notes

On May 11, 2021, American International Group, Inc. (NYSE: AIG) announced that it commenced cash tender offers (the “Tender Offers”) and solicitations of consents (the “Consent Solicitations”) for certain outstanding notes.

The Tender Offers and Consent Solicitations are being made pursuant to AIG’s Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement for the SunAmerica Notes (as defined below), dated May 11, 2021, and AIG’s Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement for the AIG Life Holdings Notes (as defined below), dated May 11, 2021 (each, an “Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement”) and the related letters of transmittal, which set forth a more comprehensive description of the terms of each Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation.

AIG today announced that:

  • it is further extending the period for holders of the SunAmerica Notes to deliver consents until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 30, 2021 (the “Final SunAmerica Consent Expiration Time”); and
  • it is further extending the expiration time of the Tender Offers and extending the payment of the Total Consideration to any tenders of notes received on or before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 30, 2021 (the “Final Extended Expiration Time”).

AIG is extending the deadlines to give holders additional time to tender or consent. In particular, AIG currently requires less than an additional 1% of the aggregate principal amount of the SunAmerica Notes to consent to the proposed amendments to the relevant indenture in order for the Consent Solicitation for those notes to be successful.

AIG does not expect to further extend either deadline beyond 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 30, 2021. If the Consent Solicitation is not successful, holders who have consented to the proposed amendments but not tendered the related SunAmerica Notes will not receive the “Consent Payment” of $5 per each $1,000 principal amount of consenting notes accepted by AIG.

The Tender Offers consist of an offer to purchase any and all of the following series of notes:

(1) The current obligor for this series of notes is AIG Life Holdings, Inc. (“AIG Life Holdings”), a wholly owned subsidiary of AIG and successor to American General Corporation, and each series of such notes is, as of the date hereof, guaranteed by AIG. Collectively, these series of notes are referred to herein as the “AIG Life Holdings Notes.”

(2) The current obligor for this series of notes is AIG (as successor to SunAmerica Inc.).

Additionally, the Consent Solicitations consist of solicitation of consents to certain proposed amendments to (i) the indenture under which the four series of notes (referred to as the “SunAmerica Notes”) were originally issued by SunAmerica Inc. and (ii) the indenture under which each of the 7.57% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures, Series A (referred to as the “Series A Notes”) and the 8 1/8% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures, Series B (referred to as the “Series B Notes”), each as set forth in the table above, were issued.

On May 25, 2021, AIG announced:

  • the successful completion of the Consent Solicitation for the Series B Notes;
  • the results of the Tender Offers and Consents Solicitations as of the Early Tender Time;
  • the extension of the payment of the Total Consideration to all notes tendered and not withdrawn on or prior to the 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 8, 2021 (the “Original Expiration Time”); and
  • the extension of the period for holders of Series A Notes and SunAmerica Notes to deliver consents until the Original Expiration Time.

AIG subsequently successfully completed the Consent Solicitation for the Series A Notes on June 9, 2021 and extended the Tender Offers and the payment of the Total Consideration to any tenders of notes, as well as the Consent Solicitation for the SunAmerica Notes, on three prior occasions: June 9, 2021, June 16, 2021 and June 23, 2021.

Extension of the Total Consideration for all Notes Tendered Prior to the Final Extended Expiration Time

AIG is extending the expiration time of the Tender Offers and extending the payment of the Total Consideration to all notes that are validly tendered on or before the Final Extended Expiration Time.

Holders must validly tender their notes on or before the Final Extended Expiration Time in order to be eligible to receive the Total Consideration.

Extension of Consent Solicitation for SunAmerica Notes

AIG is also extending the period for holders of the SunAmerica Notes to deliver consents, until the Final SunAmerica Consent Expiration Time.

Holders of SunAmerica Notes may:

  • tender their SunAmerica Notes and thereby deliver the related consents pursuant to the respective Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement on or before the Final Extended Expiration Time and Final SunAmerica Consent Expiration Time; or
  • deliver consents without tendering their SunAmerica Notes, pursuant to the respective Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement, on or before the Final SunAmerica Consent Expiration Time.

Holders of SunAmerica Notes that deliver consents without tendering the related notes at or prior to the Final SunAmerica Consent Expiration Time will be eligible to receive a Consent Payment of $5 per each $1,000 principal amount of consenting notes accepted by AIG if the proposed amendments are entered into for such series of notes. Holders of SunAmerica Notes that have previously delivered consents without tendering the related notes at or prior to the Final Extended Expiration Time will be eligible to receive the Consent Payment if the proposed amendments are entered into for such series of notes.

AIG will also continue to pay a soliciting broker fee of $5.00 per $1,000 principal amount of the SunAmerica Notes that are validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offers or for which Consents have been delivered and are accepted by AIG pursuant to the Consent Solicitations to retail brokers that are appropriately designated by their tendering holder clients to receive this fee; provided that such fee will only be paid with respect to tenders by holders whose aggregate principal amount of SunAmerica Notes and/or Consents is $500,000 or less.

The Tender Offers and Consent Solicitations are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. With respect to the Consent Solicitation and Tender Offer for the Series A Notes and Series B Notes and with respect to the Tender Offers for all of the SunAmerica Notes, AIG previously waived the Series A-B Notes Documentation Condition and the Documentation Condition, as applicable (as described in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statements). AIG may terminate or alter any or all of the Tender Offers or SunAmerica Consent Solicitations and is not obligated to accept for payment, purchase or pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment of, any tendered notes or delivered consents, in each event subject to applicable laws. The Tender Offers are not conditioned on the tender of a minimum principal amount of notes.

Morgan Securities LLC to serve as dealer managers and consent solicitation agents for the Tender Offers and Consent Solicitations and has retained D.F. King, Inc. to serve as the tender and information agent for the Tender Offers and Consent Solicitations. Requests for documents may be directed to D.F.

Morgan Securities LLC at (866) 834-4666 (toll free) or (212) 834-4045 (collect).

This press release is neither an offer to purchase, nor a solicitation of an offer to sell the notes or any other securities nor a solicitation of consents.

None of AIG, the dealer managers and consent solicitation agents or the tender and information agent makes any recommendations as to whether holders should tender their notes or deliver consents pursuant to the Tender Offers and Consent Solicitations. Holders must make their own decisions as to whether to tender notes, and, if so, the principal amount of notes to tender, and whether to deliver consents.
