Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered.

This Form 8-A/A amends the Form 8-A filed on March 9, 2011 by American International Group, Inc. (“AIG”), as previously amended by the Form 8-A/A filed on January 8, 2014 by AIG, relating to stock purchase rights (the “Rights”) previously dividended to AIG’s shareholders as part of AIG’s Tax Asset Protection Plan, dated as of March 9, 2011 (the “Plan”), between AIG and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Rights Agent (the “Rights Agent”). The Plan, the purpose of which is to help protect AIG’s ability to recognize certain tax benefits in future periods from net operating losses and other tax attributes, was originally entered into on March 9, 2011, and was originally scheduled to expire at the close of business on March 9, 2014. On January 8, 2014, AIG and the Rights Agent entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Plan, which extended the expiration date of the Plan to the close of business on January 8, 2017 (subject to other earlier termination events as described in the Plan) and also made minor technical changes to the Plan. On December 14, 2016, AIG and the Rights Agent entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Plan, which further extends the expiration date of the Plan to the close of business on December 14, 2019 (subject to other earlier termination events as described in the Plan).

The Plan is described in and included as Exhibit 4.1 to AIG’s Current Report on Form 8-K, dated March 9, 2011, and Amendment No. 1 to the Plan is described in and included as Exhibit 4.1 to AIG’s Current Report on Form 8-K, dated January 8, 2014. The foregoing description of Amendment No. 2 to the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of Amendment No. 2 to the Plan, which is included as Exhibit 4.1 to AIG’s Current Report on Form 8-K, dated December 14, 2016, and incorporated in its entirety into this Item 1 by reference.
