The Four-Year Facility also provides for the issuance of lettersof credit. We currently expect to replace or extend the Four-Year Facility on or prior to its expiration in October 2016,although no assurance can be given that the Four-Year Facility will be replaced on favorable terms or at all.The Four-Year Facility provides for $4.0 billion of unsecured revolving loans, which includes a $2.0 billion letter ofcredit sublimit. Our ability to borrow under the Four-Year Facility is not contingent on our credit ratings.

These includecovenants relating to our maintenance of a specified total consolidated net worth and total consolidated debt to totalconsolidated capitalization. Failure to satisfy these and other requirements contained in the Four-Year Facility wouldrestrict our access to the Four-Year Facility and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition,results of operations and liquidity.See Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the Four-Year Facility.Contingent Liquidity Facilities..............................................................................................................................................................................................AIG Parent has access to a contingent liquidity facility of up to $500 million as a potential source of liquidity forgeneral corporate purposes.
