(a) Excludes commercial paper and borrowings incurred by consolidated investments and includes hybrid financial instrument liabilities recorded at fair value.
(b) Represents future loss and loss adjustment expense payments estimated based on historical loss development payment patterns. Due to the
significance of the assumptions used, the periodic amounts presented could be materially different from actual required payments.
(c) Insurance and investment contract liabilities include various investment-type products with contractually scheduled maturities, including periodic payments
of a term certain nature. Insurance and investment contract liabilities also include benefit and claim liabilities, of which a significant portion represents
policies and contracts that do not have stated contractual maturity dates and may not result in any future payment obligations. For these policies and
contracts (i) AIG is currently not making payments until the occurrence of an insurable event, such as death or disability, (ii) payments are conditional on
survivorship, or (iii) payment may occur due to a surrender or other non-scheduled event out of AIG’s control. AIG has made significant assumptions to
determine the estimated undiscounted cash flows of these contractual policy benefits, which assumptions include mortality, morbidity, future lapse rates,
expenses, investment returns and interest crediting rates, offset by expected future deposits and premium on in-force policies. Due to the significance of
the assumptions used, the periodic amounts presented could be materially different from actual required payments. The amounts presented in this table
are undiscounted and therefore exceed the future policy benefits and policyholder contract deposits included in the balance sheet.
(d) Represents guaranteed maturities under GICs.
(e) Includes a $1.0 billion commitment to purchase shares under AIG’s share repurchase program which was paid in January 2008 and options to acquire
aircraft.
(f) Does not reflect unrecognized tax benefits of $1.3 billion, the timing of which is uncertain. However, it is reasonably possible that $50 million to
$150 million may become payable during 2008. See Note 21 to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion on unrecognized tax benefits.
