Dispute Resolution

On July 16, 2014, AIG reached a global resolution of its residential mortgage related disputes with Bank of America. The resolution included its claims related to RMBS from which AIG and its subsidiaries suffered losses either directly on their own account or in connection with their participation in AIG’s securities lending program.  The resolution also included AIG’s objections to the $8.5 billion settlement of Countrywide’s mortgage repurchase obligations to various investors, as well as disputes concerning the issuance of mortgage guaranty insurance by AIG’s United Guaranty subsidiaries to Bank of America and Countrywide.  Under the terms of the settlement, AIG received $650 million in cash plus a right to receive its pro rata share of whatever amount is ultimately paid out to investors in connection with the Countrywide repurchase settlement. In addition, the parties have agreed, subject to the approval of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and certain other mortgage holders, to resolve the outstanding mortgage guaranty claims disputes in accordance with agreed-to claims processes and payment formulae. The $650 million payment has been received by AIG and will be recognized as a pre-tax gain in the third quarter of 2014.
