Section 5 — Corporate Governance and Management

 

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(e) As previously announced, on September 1, 2014 (the Transition Date), Peter D. Hancock will assume the role of President and Chief Executive Officer of American International Group, Inc. (AIG). The AIG Board of Directors (the Board) also appointed Mr. Hancock to serve as a Director of AIG, effective as of the Transition Date. In connection with Mr. Hancock’s promotion, the Compensation and Management Resources Committee of the Board approved, and on July 9, 2014, the Board ratified, an increase in Mr. Hancock’s annual base salary to $1,600,000 (effective as of the Transition Date), an increase in his target short-term incentive compensation to $3,200,000 (with the increase prorated based on the Transition Date) and an increase in his target long-term incentive compensation to $7,000,000 (with an additional grant equal to the increase on the Transition Date).

 

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

Effective July 9, 2014, the Board, upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, amended the By-laws of AIG to provide that:

 

    in the absence of a quorum at any meeting of stockholders, the chairman of the meeting may adjourn the meeting; and

 

    unless otherwise provided by law or by AIG’s certificate of incorporation or By-laws, any stockholder proposal will no longer require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all the outstanding shares of AIG common stock to pass, and will instead require for approval the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares voting for and against the proposal without giving effect to abstentions, broker non-votes and withheld votes (the same voting standard that is generally applicable to management proposals). A copy of AIG’s Amended By-laws is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

Section 8 — Other Events

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On July 11, 2014, AIG issued a press release announcing the final results as of the expiration date of its previously announced tender offers for certain debt securities.

Payment for Accepted Securities was made on July 14, 2014.

A copy of this press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated into this Item 8.01 by reference.
