Section 8 - Other Events
Item 8.01. Other Events.
Working with AIG's Board of Directors, Edward M. Liddy, AIG's Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer, has determined that coincident with the reconfiguration
of the Board of Directors, AIG should also initiate the necessary actions to
install a more permanent leadership team and structure. Accordingly, he has
informed the Board of Directors of his intention to resign from his positions
with AIG, including his service as a director, once appropriate permanent
replacements are appointed. The Board of Directors concurs with Mr. Liddy's
recommendation that the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer be
separated going forward and intends to conduct a search to fill both positions.
The search will include participation by both the reconstituted Board of
Directors of AIG and the Trustees of the AIG Credit Facility Trust, a trust
established for the sole benefit of the United States Treasury.
