Section 8 - Other Events

Item 8.01.   Other Events.

On January 9, 2006, C.V. Starr & Co., Inc. (Starr) announced that it had
completed its tender offer to purchase interests in Starr and that all eligible
shareholders had tendered their shares. As a result of completion of the tender
offer, no AIG executive officer currently holds any Starr interest. In addition,
AIG understands that Mr. Brian Schreiber, Senior Vice President - Strategic
Planning, has used the proceeds from the tender of his Starr interests to repay
a loan extended by a private entity that may be controlled by Mr. M. R.
Greenberg.

The Starr holdings of AIG's executive officers as of January 1, 2005 were
described in AIG's Proxy Statement, dated June 27, 2005. The tender offer price
was 1.42 times the liquidation value of the Starr interests. AIG previously
disclosed that its Compensation Committee adopted a Senior Partners compensation
plan. This plan is part of AIG's efforts to provide replacements for the
investment opportunity and related retention benefit historically provided by
the Starr holdings.
