American International Group, Inc.

2013 Short-Term Incentive Plan

As Amended
September 9, 2014

1.                 
Purpose 

The purpose of the American International Group, Inc. 2013
Short-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) of the American International
Group, Inc. (“AIG” and together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the
“Company”) is to strengthen our pay-for-performance culture by rewarding
employees for overall AIG, “Business/Functional Segment” and individual
performance during the Performance Year (as defined in Section 3 below) and to
provide the Company with effective means of attracting, retaining and
motivating employees and encouraging the continued commitment of participants
on behalf of the Company and its Business/Functional Segments.  Incentive Awards
under the Plan will be in the form of cash. Capitalized terms not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Glossary of Terms set
forth in Appendix C. 

2.                 
Eligibility 

All full and part-time employees of the Company, excluding
external contractors, independent contractors, temporary workers and
independent agents (the “Participants”) are eligible to participate in
the Plan, unless the employee is a participant in another variable pay or sales
plan that the business has determined is in lieu of the Plan during the
Performance Year. Being eligible for any bonus plan that is required to be
provided under local law shall not cause an employee who satisfies the
definition above to lose eligibility for this Plan (unless the business expressly
elects to so exclude such employee). Subject to Sections 7 and 11 and Appendix
B, in order to be eligible to be a Participant in this Plan for a Performance
Year, the employee must be employed by the Company in the Performance Year.
Employees who have an employment contract with AIG or its subsidiaries for
ongoing employment of unlimited duration and that is not confined to a
specific, finite project will not be excluded from being eligible to
participate in this Plan.

3.                 
Performance Year

The Plan will operate for successive one calendar year
(January 1 – December 31) periods (each, a “Performance Year”) until the
Plan is terminated by the CMRC (as defined in Section 4 below). The first
Performance Year will be from January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013.

4.                 
Funding Approval and Plan Administration

A.                
In General

The aggregate Funding of the Plan (the amount that
represents the sum of the Business/Functional Segment Short-Term Incentive
Pools) is approved by the members of the Compensation and Management Resources
Committee of AIG’s Board of Directors (the 

 

 

“CMRC”).
Compensation Center of Excellence (“Compensation COE”) under the
direction of the Operating Committee then allocates portions of the Funding to
each of the Business/Functional Segments (the “Business/Functional Segment
Funding”). 

B.                
Funding Approval

The Funding approval process begins with an assessment by
the CMRC of the Company’s overall performance against pre-determined goals and
objectives. Next, the CMRC determines how each Business/Functional Segment
performed against its pre-determined goals. If a Business/Functional Segment’s
performance exceeded its pre-determined goals, funding of the
Business/Functional Segment’s Short-Term Incentive Pool above 100% will only be
permitted if the Company’s overall performance meets or exceeds the minimum
threshold of the Company’s goals and objectives.

The CMRC determines the performance metrics and a
threshold, target and maximum achievement level for each metric within the
first ninety (90) days of a Performance Year.  For Business/Functional Segments
that are business units, the performance metrics are specific to the business
unit. For Business/Functional segments that are the global functional units,
the performance metrics are a mix of AIG and functional unit metrics. Following
the end of the Performance Year, the CMRC will measure and certify performance
against the performance metrics.  The CMRC’s assessment of performance against
the pre-determined goals will be expressed in the form of a “Modifier” ranging from
0% to 125%.  The Modifier will be determined based upon whether performance is
at minimum, target or maximum achievement levels.  Each Business/Functional
Segment may be assigned a Modifier that, when applied to the targeted amount of
the Short-Term Incentive Pool for that Business/Functional Segment, will be
used to establish the Business/Functional Segment’s Short-Term Incentive Pool.
Once the process described above is complete, the CMRC will approve the
aggregate Funding at the Company level.  

Additionally, final pool sizes are subject to adjustment
at the discretion of the Operating Committee and the CMRC to ensure that the
Plan rewards all Participants appropriately and in the intended manner.

Excluded from the Funding are any guaranteed bonuses pursuant
to an individual offer letter or employment agreement.

C.                
Plan Administration

The Plan is administered by the CMRC who, in its sole
discretion and subject to Section 22, may allocate among its members and
delegate to any person who is not a member of the CMRC any of its powers,
responsibilities or duties under the Plan, including, but not limited to, the
Senior C&B Executive and the Compensation COE. The CMRC will have the power
to construe, interpret and implement this Plan, to make rules for carrying out
its purposes and to make all other determinations in connection with its
administration, all of which will, unless otherwise determined by the CMRC, be
final, binding and conclusive.

 

                                                                             -2-

 

 

5.                 
Individual Participant Target and Performance Measurement

For each Performance Year, each Participant will be
assigned an annual “Incentive Target Amount” by the CMRC or the
applicable Business/Functional Segment in which the Participant is Employed,
expressed as a flat local currency amount, which takes into consideration the
Participant’s job grade, business, local market, job scope, responsibilities
and experience. The Participant’s performance during the Performance Year will
be determined by the CMRC or the applicable Business/Functional Segment in
which the Participant is Employed in accordance with Appendix A (the “Performance
Measurement Methodology”), which will result in a Relative Performance
Rating (“RPR”) for the Participant and an Incentive Opportunity Percent
that corresponds to the RPR.

6.                 
Calculation of Incentive Payment/Determination of Awards

A.                
As described in this Section 6, each Participant’s Incentive
Award Recommendation will take into account the Participant’s RPR, the
Incentive Target Amount, the Incentive Opportunity Range as described in
Appendix A and the Short-Term Incentive Pool that was approved for the
Participant’s Business/Functional Segment as outlined in Section 4B.

B.                
Subject to the Funding limit described in Section 4, once the
Participant’s performance has been determined, the CMRC or the Participant’s
manager, as applicable, uses discretion, taking into account the Participant’s
RPR, to multiply the Participant’s Incentive Target Amount by the Incentive
Opportunity Percent to arrive at the Participant’s Incentive Award
Recommendation. The Participant’s Incentive Award Recommendation will then be
adjusted by the applicable Modifier that was determined in Section 4B.
Following the application of the Modifier, the CMRC or the Participant’s
manager, as applicable, has the discretion to further revise the Participant’s
Incentive Award Recommendation. In the event an individual is hired after the
Performance Year commences, the individual may become a Participant in the Plan
and be assigned an annual Incentive Target Amount which is based on the job
grade, business, local market, job scope, responsibilities for the position, as
well as the Participant’s experience; provided, however, the amount of the
Incentive Award may be pro-rated to reflect the portion of the Performance Year
that such Participant worked for the Company.

C.                
The total Incentive Award Recommendations (after each has been
adjusted by the applicable Business/Functional Segment Modifier) must not
exceed the Funding approved by the CMRC pursuant to Section 4B. The CMRC or the
applicable Business/Functional Segment is responsible for allocating awards
among the Participants based on the applicable Business/Functional Segment’s
Short-Term Incentive Pool in accordance with the guidelines set forth in
Appendix A.

D.                
The Compensation COE will conduct validation analyses to
determine that the Plan is generally operated in accordance with the
Performance Measurement Methodology in Section 5 and Appendix A, and in
accordance with paragraphs 6A and 6B as well as to determine whether the
Incentive Award percentages are differentiated for each RPR level as a whole in
accordance with the range for that level. It will also prepare an exception
report for the Operating Committee’s review.

 

                                                                             -3-

 

 

E.                 
Aggregate Business/Functional Segment recommendations are
presented to the CMRC for approval no later than March 31st following the
Performance Year. On such date or dates following such CMRC approval as the
CMRC determines in its sole discretion, but no later than April 30th following
the Performance Year (the “Award Date”), each Participant will be
granted an Incentive Award equal to the Participant’s final Incentive Award
Recommendation as adjusted by the applicable Modifier, payable pursuant to
Section 7. The CMRC expressly reserves the right not to pay an Incentive Award
to any, some or all Participants for a Performance Year.

7.                 
Vesting; Payout of Incentive Award

A Participant must be Employed by
the Company on the Award Date to be eligible to receive his or her Incentive
Award except to the extent provided in Section 11 and Appendix B. Each
Incentive Award will be fully-vested on the Award Date. Except as provided in
the paragraph below, Incentive Awards will be paid 100% in cash on the Award
Date.  

Prior to March 31 of a
Performance Year, the CMRC may determine that all or a specified percentage of
a Participant’s Incentive Award will be a “Deferred Award,” in which
case such Incentive Award will be paid in cash on March 1 of the year following
the year in which the Award Date occurs. For the 2013 Performance Year, 50% of
Incentive Awards for Participants in grade level 27 and above will be Deferred
Awards.

To the extent a Participant does
not receive a payment for a Performance Year on or before March 15 of the
calendar year following the year in which the Award Date occurs, the
Participant shall forfeit all rights to payment.

8.                 
Limitation of Incentive Payment under Certain Conditions

In the event any Incentive Award payment received or to be
received by any Participant under this Plan would be subject to the excise tax
imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any similar or successor provision to
Section 4999 (the “Excise Tax”) then, at the discretion of the Chief
Human Resources Officer such Incentive Award payment shall be reduced up to the
largest amount which would result in no portion of the Incentive Award payment
being subject to the Excise Tax. The determination of any such reduction
pursuant to this Section 8 will be made by the Senior C&B Executive and
such determination will be conclusive and binding upon the Company, the
Participant, the Senior C&B Executive and the CMRC for all purposes.

9.                 
Plan Termination/Amendment

The Plan may be amended or modified, with or without prior
notification of the Participants, at any time in the sole discretion of the
CMRC. The Plan will continue until suspended or terminated by the CMRC in its
sole discretion; provided that all Incentive Awards made under the Plan
before its suspension or termination will remain in effect until such awards
have been satisfied or terminated in accordance with the terms and provisions
of the Plan and the applicable award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the CMRC’s
rights and powers to amend the Plan shall be delegated the Senior C&B
Executive who shall have the right to amend the Plan with respect to (i)
amendments required by relevant law, regulation or ruling, (ii) amendments that
are not expected to have a material financial impact on the Company, (iii)
amendments that can 

                                                                             -4-

 

 

reasonably be characterized as
technical or ministerial in nature or (iv) amendments that have previously been
approved in concept by the CMRC. Notwithstanding the foregoing delegation, the Senior
C&B Executive shall not have the power to make an amendment to the Plan
that could reasonably be expected to result in a termination of the Plan or a
change in the structure or the powers, duties or responsibilities of the CMRC,
unless such amendment is approved or ratified by the CMRC.

10.             
Effective Date

The Plan is effective as of the 2013 Performance Year, and
will continue thereafter until terminated by the CMRC; provided, however, that
the existence of the Plan at any time or from time to time does not guarantee
or imply the payment of any Incentive Awards hereunder, or the establishment of
any future plans or the continuation of this Plan.

11.             
Termination of Employment/Breaks in Service

In the event (i) a Participant’s Employment terminates
during the Performance Year or prior to the Award Date, or (ii) a Participant
is Employed, but not actively performing services for the Company for a portion
of the Performance Year, or on the actual payment date of an Incentive Award,
for certain reasons specified in Appendix B, the amount of an Incentive Award,
if any, that the Participant will receive and payment thereof will be determined
(and, if applicable, modified) in accordance with Appendix B.

In the event a Participant is involuntarily Terminated
without Cause pursuant to Appendix B, AIG will require the Participant to
execute a release, as described below, in order to impose restrictive covenants
requiring confidentiality of information, non-disparagement and
non-solicitation of Company employees for 12 months following Termination
without Cause as a condition to receiving payment of all or a portion of the
Incentive Award. Such release shall be the release required by the severance
plan or program applicable to the Participant’s Termination without Cause;
provided, however, to the extent that no such established severance plan or
program is deemed applicable by the CMRC, with respect to any Participant under
the purview of the CMRC, or the Senior C&B Executive, with respect to any
other Participant, or their delegate(s), in each case, in its or his or her
sole discretion, then the release shall be a release generally in the form set
forth in Appendix D, subject to any provisions that the Senior HR Attorney and
the Senior C&B Executive or their delegate(s) may amend or add to the
release. Such release must be executed by the Participant, submitted to the
Company and become irrevocable prior to the date on which any Incentive Award
shall be paid, but in no event shall the release be executed later than March
10th of the year following the year in which the Termination without
Cause occurred; provided that if the release is executed after such time, the
payment with respect to such Incentive Award will be forfeited; provided,
further, that if the local laws of a country or non-U.S. jurisdiction in which
Participant performs services would not permit all or a portion of the release
in Appendix D to be structured or executed in the applicable form attached
hereto, the Senior HR Attorney and the Senior C&B Executive or their
delegate(s) shall have the discretion to create a release that incorporates as
much of the Appendix D release as possible, while also complying with such
local laws.

 

                                                                             -5-

 

 

12.             
Taxes 

The Company will comply with all applicable tax reporting,
withholding and other requirements globally with respect to amounts paid under
this Plan, in amounts and in a manner determined in the sole discretion of the
Company. As a condition to the payment of any amount under this Plan, or in
connection with any other event related to this Plan, that gives rise to a
federal or other governmental tax withholding obligation (1) the Company may
deduct or withhold (or cause to be deducted or withheld) from any payment to a
Participant whether or not pursuant to this Plan or (2) the CMRC will be
entitled to require that the Participant remit cash to the Company (through
payroll deduction or otherwise), in each case, in an amount sufficient in the
opinion of the Company to satisfy such withholding obligation.

13.             
Effect on Benefit Plans

The Incentive Award payment is deemed compensation under
certain of the Company’s compensation and benefit plans, but it is not deemed
compensation for other programs; provided, however that for purposes of the
Company’s benefit programs, this Plan will be deemed a short-term incentive,
annual, year-end bonus program. The Summary Plan Description and plan summaries
of each of the Company’s compensation and benefit plans will govern whether and
the extent to which the Incentive Award payment will affect the Participant’s
benefits under such plans, and the Company reserves the right to amend those
compensation and benefit plans at any time.

14.             
Other Payments or Awards

Nothing contained in the Plan will be deemed in any way to
limit or restrict the Company from adopting or continuing in effect any
compensation arrangements or making any award or payment to any person under
any other plan, arrangement or understanding, whether now existing or hereafter
in effect.

15.             
Governing Law; Section 409A

The Plan will be governed and enforced in accordance with
the appropriate country and local regulations. With respect to Participants
working in the United States, this Plan will be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles
of conflict of laws.

The Plan shall also be subject to all applicable non-U.S.
laws as to Participants located outside of the United States. In the event that
any provision of this Plan is not permitted by the local laws of a country or
jurisdiction in which a Participant works, such local law shall supersede that
provision of this Plan with respect to that Participant. The Senior HR Attorney
and the Senior C&B Executive or their delegate(s) shall have the discretion
to operate the Plan with respect to such Participant in a manner that
incorporates as much of the Plan’s current terms as possible while also
complying with such local laws.

Each
payment made under the Plan shall be deemed to be a separate payment for
purposes of Section 409A, and amounts payable shall be deemed not to be a
“deferral of compensation” subject to Section 409A to the extent provided in
the “short-term deferral” exception in Treasury 

                                                                             -6-

 

 

Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(b)(4). For the avoidance of doubt, all Incentive Awards under
the Plan are intended to satisfy such short-term deferral exception. To the
extent any payment under the Plan constitutes “deferred compensation” subject
to Section 409A, the Plan will be interpreted, administered and construed to
comply with Section 409A with respect to such payment. The CMRC will have
full authority to give effect to the intent of this paragraph of Section 15.

16.             
No Right of Employment

Nothing in this Plan will be construed as creating any
contract of employment or conferring upon the Participant any right to continue
in the employ or other service of the Company, or any of its subdivisions or
subsidiaries, or limit in any way the right of the Company to change such
Participant’s compensation or benefits or to terminate the employment or other
service of such Participant with or without cause.

17.             
Section Headings

The section headings contained herein are for convenience
only, and in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than the
headings will control.

18.             
Severability 

If any term or provision contained herein is finally held
to be, to any extent, invalid, illegal or unenforceable (whether in whole or in
part), such provision will be deemed modified only to the extent of such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability and the remaining provisions will
not be affected thereby.

19.             
Entire Understanding

The Plan contains the entire understanding of the Company
and the Participants with respect to the subject matter thereof and supersedes
all prior promises, covenants, arrangements, agreements, communications,
representations and understanding between the Company and the Participant.

20.             
Successor and Assigns

The terms of this Plan will inure to the benefit of the
Company and any successor entity.

21.             
Repayment and Clawback

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in
consideration of the grant of an Incentive Award, the award and any payments
under this Plan will be subject to forfeiture and/or or repayment to the extent
provided for in the AIG Clawback Policy, as in effect from time to time.

22.             
Subject to Any AIG Section 162(m) Plan

AIG may, in any year, propose a Section 162(m) compliant
performance incentive award plan (the “AIG Section 162(m) Plan”). If an
AIG Section 162(m) Plan is proposed and approved by 

                                                                             -7-

 

 

the
AIG stockholders in accordance with Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code and
Treasury Regulation Section 1.162‐27(e)(4), this Plan will function as a
sub-plan under the AIG Section 162(m) Plan, whereby performance compensation
amounts payable under the AIG Section 162(m) Plan can be paid in part by
accruing awards with respect to a Performance Period.

23.       No Funding

The Company will be under no obligation to fund or set
aside amounts to pay obligations under this Plan. A Participant will have no
rights to awards or other amounts under this Plan other than as a general,
unsecured creditor of the Company.

                                                                             -8-

 

             Appendix A

Performance Measurement
Methodology for Assessing a Participant’s Performance

For each Performance Year, each Participant’s Incentive
Target Amount will be determined generally based on the Participant’s job
grade, business, local market, job scope, responsibilities and experience. The
actual Incentive Award Recommendation (above or below target) is determined
through a performance management process which measures and rewards an
employee’s performance against a “peer performance group.” A Participant’s peer
performance group consists of employees in similar job grades, functions and
levels of responsibility within and across Business/Functions. Through
“Roundtable” discussions (discussions among supervisors of those who are
members of a peer performance group), a Participant’s performance is discussed
and measured against the others in the peer performance group, and each
Participant is ultimately assigned a RPR. The RPR levels, descriptions
and distribution percentages set forth in chart below may be amended from time
to time in the sole discretion of the CMRC.

Each RPR level has a guideline Incentive Opportunity
Range, as described in the table below, generally to be used as a guideline by
management in determining an Incentive Opportunity Percent that will be
applied, based on management discretion, to the Participant’s Incentive Target
Amount to calculate the Incentive Award Recommendation. The RPR guidelines
assist the CMRC and/or manager in allocating incentive amounts among eligible
employees.

Only a limited percentage of employees within a
performance peer group may be assigned to each RPR level, and generally each
performance peer group will achieve optimal distribution of ratings, as is set
forth in the table.

  Military Leave of Absence

  	
  If a Participant is on an
  approved leave of absence during which the Participant is receiving salary
  continuation from a Company payroll (a “Paid Leave of Absence”), such Paid
  Leave of Absence will not be deemed a break a service or a termination of
  employment for purposes of this Plan. Time on a Paid Leave of Absence will be
  treated the same as time during which the Participant performs services for
  the Company.

   

  If a Participant is on an
  approved leave of absence during which the Participant is NOT receiving
  salary continuation from a Company payroll, including a period of long term
  disability leave during which a Participant may be receiving long term
  disability insurance payments from a long term disability insurer (an “Unpaid
  Leave of Absence”), their Incentive Award will be prorated based on the
  number of months during the Performance Year that the Participant was
  actively employed or on a Paid Leave of Absence with the Company, but will
  not include the number of months that the Participant was on an Unpaid Leave
  of Absence.

   

  Incentive Awards are paid
  on the Normal Schedule.

   

  
	
  Retirement

  	
  During the Performance
  Year:  If the Termination occurs after March 31st and before the end
  of the Performance Year, the Incentive Award is prorated based on the number
  of months during the Performance Year that the Participant was actively
  employed or on a Paid Leave of absence with the Company and the amount of the
  Incentive Award is based on 100% of the Incentive Target Amount for the Participant
  for such Performance Year and actual performance of the applicable
  Business/Functional Segment as determined by the CMRC. Paid on the Normal
  Schedule. If the last day worked occurs on or before March 31st,
  the Participant will not receive any pro-rated Incentive Award payment for
  the current Performance Year.

   

  After the End of the
  Performance Year but prior to the Award Date:  If a Participant Retires after the end of
  the Performance Year, the Incentive Award is not prorated, but is paid in
  full based on individual and business or global function performance for such
  Performance Year. Paid on the Normal Schedule.

   

  
	
  Death

  	
  If a Participant Dies
  While Actively Employed or on a Paid Leave of Absence:

  During the Performance
  Year:  If the date of death occurs after March 31st and before the
  end of the Performance Year, the Incentive Award is prorated based on the
  number of months during the Performance Year that
  the Participant was actively employed or on a Paid Leave of Absence with the
  Company and the amount of the Incentive Award is based on 100% of Incentive
  Target Amount for the Participant for such Performance Year. Paid as soon as
  administratively possible after the date of death, but in no event later than
  March 15th following such Performance Year. If the date of death
  occurs on or before March 31st, the Participant will not receive
  any pro-rated Incentive Award payment for the current Performance Year.

   

  After the End of the
  Performance Year but prior to the Award Date:  If a Participant dies after the end of the
  Performance Year, the Incentive Award is not prorated, but is paid 100% of
  the Incentive Target Award in effect on the date of death. Paid as soon as
  administratively possible after the date of death, but in no event later than
  March 15th following the year in which the death occurred.

  
	
  Resignation, Voluntary Quit, Constructive Discharge

  	
  If the last day worked is
  prior to the Award Date, Incentive Award is forfeited.  

  
	
  Involuntary Termination without Cause

   

  	
  During the Performance
  Year or After the Performance Year but prior to the Award Date:    

  For Participants in the
  2012 Executive Severance Plan, paid in accordance with such plan.  

   

  For other Participants,
  payable pursuant to the AIG, Inc. Severance program, or other severance
  arrangement applicable to such termination as follows:  If the last day
  worked occurs after March 31st and before the end of the Performance Year,
  the Incentive Award is prorated based on the number of months during the
  Performance Year that the Participant was actively employed or on a Paid
  Leave of absence with the Company and the amount of the Incentive Award is
  based on 80% of the Incentive Target Amount for the Participant for such
  Performance Year and actual performance of the applicable Business/Functional Segment as determined by the
  CMRC. Paid on the Award Date (but no
  later than March 15th following the Performance Year).

   

  To the extent there is an
  inconsistency between this Plan and the applicable severance program, the
  severance program will prevail. To the extent the CMRC, with respect
  to any Participant under the purview of the CMRC, or the Senior C&B
  Executive, with respect to any other Participant, or their delegate(s), in
  each case, in its or his or her sole discretion
  determines that no established severance program or arrangement is applicable
  to a Participant’s Termination without Cause, then, in accordance with
  Section 11, the Participant will need to execute a release generally in the
  form set forth in Appendix D, subject to any provisions that the Senior HR
  Attorney and the Senior C&B Executive, or their delegate(s) may amend or
  add to the release.

Exhibit 10(6)

 

American
International Group, Inc.

  Annual
Short-Term Incentive Plan 

as Amended September 9,
2014 

 

 

1.           
 Purpose

American International Group,
Inc. (“AIG” and together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the
“Company”) has created this American International Group, Inc.
Annual Short-Term Incentive Plan (this “Plan”) to strengthen our
pay-for-performance culture by rewarding employees for business and individual
performance during the applicable Performance Year.  This Plan replaces the American
International Group, Inc. 2013 Short-Term Incentive Plan beginning with the
Performance Year from January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014.  Awards under
this Plan (each, an “Incentive Award”) will be in the form of
cash.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein will have the meanings
set forth in the Glossary of Terms in Appendix A. 

2.           
 Performance Periods

This Plan will operate for
successive one-year periods beginning on January 1 of each year (each, a “Performance
Year”) until this Plan is terminated by the Compensation and Management
Resources Committee of the Board of Directors of AIG (including any successor
thereto, the “Committee”).  The first Performance Year will be
January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014.

3.           
 Eligibility

All full and part-time employees
of the Company, excluding external contractors, independent contractors,
temporary workers, and independent agents during the applicable Performance
Year (the “Participants”) are eligible to participate in this
Plan for such Performance Year, unless the employee is a participant in another
variable pay or sales plan that the applicable business has determined is in
lieu of this Plan during such Performance Year.  For the avoidance of doubt,
employees who are eligible to participate in a bonus plan that is required to
be provided under local law or who have an employment contract with AIG or its
subsidiaries for ongoing employment of unlimited duration that is not confined
to a specific, finite project will not be ineligible for the Plan (unless the
applicable business expressly elects to exclude such employee).  If an
individual is hired after the Performance Year commences, the individual may
become a Participant in the Plan, and the amount of his or her Incentive Award
may be Pro-Rated to reflect the portion of the Performance Year worked.

4.           
 Bonus Pool Funding

A.           
Determination.  As soon as practicable following a Performance
Year, the Committee will determine the aggregate bonus pool (the “Earned
Bonus Pool”) to ensure that the Plan rewards all Participants
appropriately and consistent with the purpose of this Plan.  Promptly following
this determination, the Compensation Center of Excellence (“Compensation
COE”) under the direction of the Operating Committee will allocate the
Earned Bonus Pool to each of the 

 

 

Business/Functional
Segments.  Prior to March 31st of any Performance Year, the
Committee will have the discretion to establish a threshold goal (the “Threshold
Goal”) and determine that, if the Threshold Goal is not met, the Earned
Bonus Pool will be capped at a fixed amount (including $0) or the amount
resulting from a specified formula.

B.           
Exceptions to Earned Bonus Pool.  As soon as practicable
following a Performance Year, the Committee will determine whether the
Incentive Awards for any Participants will be excluded from, and not subject
to, the Earned Bonus Pool.

5.           
 Incentive Awards

A.           
Amount and Form.  Prior to or as soon as practicable following
the commencement of a Performance Year, a Participant’s target Incentive Award
(the “Individual Target Award”) will be established by the
Committee or the applicable Business/Functional Segment in which the
Participant is Employed.  The Individual Target Award will generally be
established after considering the Participant’s job grade, business, local market,
job scope, responsibilities and experience.

B.           
Performance Metrics.  Prior to or as soon as practicable
following the commencement of a Performance Year, the Committee will determine
the performance metric(s) (each, a “Performance Metric”) and the
manner in which each Participant’s actual Incentive Award (the “Earned
Individual Award”) will be calculated for such Performance Year. 
Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, there will be three categories of
Performance Metrics:  (1) Company-based Performance Metrics, (2)
Business/Functional Segment-based Performance Metrics and (3) Individual-based
Performance Metrics; provided that for any Performance Year there will
be at least one Company-based Performance Metric or Business/Functional
Segment-based Performance Metric (which could include the Threshold Goal).  The
Earned Individual Awards may be determined for any Performance Year on the
basis of one or any combination of the Performance Metrics, as determined by
the Committee in its sole discretion, and the Performance Metrics will be
documented in a written Administrative Guide prepared by management for the
Performance Year.  In determining the manner in which the Earned Individual
Award will be calculated, the Committee may establish minimum, target and
maximum achievement levels for any Performance Metric.

C.           
Earned Individual Award.  The Committee will assess performance
against (1) any Company-based Performance Metrics, (2) any Business/Functional
Segment-based Performance Metrics and (3) for Participants who are under the
purview of the Committee, any Individual-based Performance Metrics, in each
case, as soon as practicable following a Performance Year.  For any
Participants who are not under the purview of the Committee, such Participant’s
manager (in accordance with the then-current performance management process, if
any) will assess performance against his or her Individual-based Performance
Metrics, if applicable.  Each Participant’s Earned Individual Award will
be determined by the extent to which the Performance Metrics applicable to the
Plan Year have been attained.  The Committee may provide that an Earned
Individual Award may not exceed a certain percentage of the Individual Target
Award.  In addition, in no event will the aggregate Earned Individual Awards
for a Performance Year exceed the Earned Bonus Pool.

 

-2-

 

 

D.          
Vesting; Payment.  Earned Individual Awards for a Performance
Year will be granted as the Committee determines in its sole discretion and
paid on such date or dates following the determination process described
in Section 5.C, but no later than April 30th following
the Performance Year (the “Award Date”).  A Participant must be
employed on the Award Date to be eligible to receive his or her Earned
Individual Award except to the extent provided in Section 6  and Appendix B. 
Prior to March 31st of a Performance Year, the Committee may
determine that all or a specified percentage of a Participant’s Earned
Incentive Award will be a “Deferred Award,” in which case such
Earned Incentive Award will be paid on the one-year anniversary of the Award
Date (the “Deferred Award Payment Date”). 

6.           
 Termination
in Service; Breaks in Service

A.           
Termination Generally.  In the event (i) a Participant’s
Employment is Terminated for any reason during the Performance Year or prior to
the Award Date or (ii) a Participant is Employed but not actively performing
services for the Company for a portion of the Performance Year or on the Award
Date for certain reasons specified in Appendix B, the amount and
payment of the Earned Individual Award, if any, that the Participant will
receive will be determined (and, if applicable, modified) in accordance with Appendix
B. 

B.           
Termination without Cause.  In the event that a Participant is
involuntarily Terminated without Cause, AIG will require the Participant to
execute a Release in order to impose restrictive covenants requiring
confidentiality of information, non-disparagement and non-solicitation of
Company employees for 12 months following the termination as a condition
to receiving payment of all or a portion of an Earned Individual Award for
which the Award Date has not occurred as of such termination.  The Release must
be executed by the Participant, submitted to the Company and become irrevocable
prior to the date on which any such Earned Individual Award shall be paid, but
in no event shall the Release be executed later than March 10th of
the year following the year in which the Termination without Cause occurred; provided
that if the Release is executed after such time, any payments with respect
to the Earned Individual Award will be forfeited.

7.           
 Clawback/Repayment.

Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, in consideration of the grant of an Incentive Award, the award
and any payments under this Plan will be subject to forfeiture and/or repayment
to the extent provided for in the AIG Clawback Policy, as in effect from time
to time.

8.           
 Administration

A.           
General.  The Plan will be administered by the Committee, and any
person or persons designated by the Committee to administer the Plan from time
to time including, but not limited to, the Senior C&B Executive and the
Compensation COE.  The Compensation COE will conduct validation analyses to
determine that this Plan is generally operated in accordance with the terms of
this Plan and the applicable Administrative Guide.  Actions of the Committee
may be taken by the vote of a majority of its members.  The Committee may
allocate among its members 

-3-

 

 

and delegate to any person
who is not a member of the Committee any of its powers, responsibilities or
duties under the Plan.  The Committee will have the power to construe,
interpret and implement this Plan, to make regulations for carrying out its
purposes and to make all other determinations in connection with its
administration, all of which will, unless otherwise determined by the
Committee, be final, binding and conclusive.  The Committee may, in its sole
discretion, reinstate any Earned Individual Awards made under this Plan that
have been terminated and forfeited because of a Participant’s Termination, if
the Participant complies with any covenants, agreements or conditions that the
Committee may impose; provided,  however, that payment under such
reinstated awards will not be made until the scheduled times set forth in this
Plan.

B.           
Determination of Employment.  The Committee, with respect to any
Participant under the purview of the Committee, and the Senior C&B
Executive, with respect to any other Participant, will have the right to
determine the commencement or Termination date of a Participant’s Employment
with the Company solely for purposes of this Plan, separate and apart from any
determination as may be made by the Company with respect to the individual’s
employment.

C.           
No Liability.  No member of the Board of Directors of AIG (the “Board”)
or any employee of AIG performing services with respect to the Plan (each, a “Covered
Person”) will have any liability to any person (including any
Participant) for any action taken or omitted to be taken or any determination
made, in each case, in good faith with respect to this Plan or any
Participant’s participation in it.  Each Covered Person will be indemnified and
held harmless by AIG against and from any loss, cost, liability, or expense
(including attorneys’ fees) that may be imposed upon or incurred by such
Covered Person in connection with or resulting from any action, suit or
proceeding to which such Covered Person may be a party or in which such Covered
Person may be involved by reason of any action taken or omitted to be taken
under this Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by such Covered
Person, with AIG’s approval, in settlement thereof, or paid by such Covered
Person in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding
against such Covered Person, provided  that  AIG will have the
right, at its own expense, to assume and defend any such action, suit or
proceeding and, once AIG gives notice of its intent to assume the defense, AIG
will have sole control over such defense with counsel of AIG’s choice.  To the
extent any taxable expense reimbursement under this paragraph is subject to
Section 409A, (1) the amount thereof eligible in one taxable year shall not
affect the amount eligible in any other taxable year; (2) in no event shall any
expenses be reimbursed after the last day of the taxable year following the
taxable year in which the Covered Person incurred such expenses; and (3) in no
event shall any right to reimbursement be subject to liquidation or exchange
for another benefit.  The foregoing right of indemnification will not be
available to a Covered Person to the extent that a court of competent
jurisdiction in a final judgment or other final adjudication, in either case,
not subject to further appeal, determines that the acts or omissions of such
Covered Person giving rise to the indemnification claim resulted from such
Covered Person’s bad faith, fraud or willful misconduct.  The foregoing right
of indemnification will not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification
to which Covered Persons may be entitled under AIG’s Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or
any other power that AIG may have to indemnify such persons or hold them
harmless.

D.          
Consent.  If the Committee at any time determines, in its sole
discretion, that any consent (as hereinafter defined) is necessary or desirable
as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of any award or the
payment of any amount under this Plan or the taking of any other action
thereunder (each such action, a “plan action”), then such plan
action will not be taken, in whole or in part, unless and until such consent
will have been effected or obtained to the full satisfaction of the Committee; provided 
that  if such consent has not been so effected or obtained as of the
latest date provided by this Plan for payment of such amount and further delay
is not permitted in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A, such
amount will be forfeited and terminate notwithstanding any prior earning or vesting. 

The term “consent” as used in this
paragraph with respect to any plan action includes (1) any and all listings,
registrations or qualifications in respect thereof upon any securities exchange
or under any federal, state, or local law, or law, rule or regulation of a
jurisdiction outside the United States, (2) any other matter, which the
Committee may deem necessary or desirable to comply with the terms of any such
listing, registration or qualification or to obtain an exemption from the
requirement that any such listing, qualification or registration be made, (3)
any and all other consents, clearances and approvals in respect of a plan
action by any governmental or other regulatory body or any stock exchange or
self-regulatory agency and (4) any and all consents required by the Committee.

9.           
 Other Provisions

A.           
No Funding.  The Company will be under no obligation to fund or
set aside amounts to pay obligations under this Plan. A Participant will have
no rights to awards or other amounts under this Plan other than as a general,
unsecured creditor of the Company.

B.           
Tax Withholding.  The Company will comply with all applicable tax
reporting, withholding and other requirements globally with respect to amounts
paid under this Plan, in amounts and in a manner determined in the sole
discretion of the Company.  As a condition to the payment of any amount under
this Plan, or in connection with any other event related to this Plan, that
gives rise to a federal or other governmental tax withholding obligation (1)
the Company may deduct or withhold (or cause to be deducted or withheld) from
any payment to a Participant whether or not pursuant to this Plan or (2) the
Committee will be entitled to require that the Participant remit cash to the
Company (through payroll deduction or otherwise), in each case, in an amount
sufficient in the opinion of the Company to satisfy such withholding
obligation.

C.           
No Rights to Other Payments.  The provisions of this Plan provide
no right or eligibility to a Participant to any other payouts from AIG or its
subsidiaries under any other alternative plans, schemes, arrangements or
contracts AIG may have with any employee or group of employees of AIG or its
subsidiaries.  Nothing contained in the Plan will be deemed in any way to limit
or restrict the Company from adopting or continuing in effect any compensation
arrangements or making any award or payment to any person under any other plan,
arrangement or understanding, whether now existing or hereafter in effect.

D.          
Effect on Benefit Plans.  The Incentive Award payment is deemed
compensation under certain of the Company’s compensation and benefit plans, but
it is not deemed compensation for other programs; provided, however, that for
purposes of the Company’s benefit programs, this Plan will be deemed a
short-term incentive, annual, year-end bonus program. The Summary Plan
Description and plan summaries of each of the Company’s compensation and
benefit plans will govern whether and the extent to which the Incentive Award
payment will affect the Participant’s benefits under such plans, and the
Company reserves the right to amend those compensation and benefit plans at any
time.

E.           
Section 409A.  Payments under this Plan are intended to be exempt
from Section 409A to the extent they satisfy the “short-term deferral
exception” in Treasury Regulation Section
1.409A-1(b)(4) and otherwise to be compliant with Section 409A, and this
Plan shall be interpreted, operated and administered accordingly.  For the avoidance of doubt, all Incentive Awards under the
Plan other than Deferred Awards are intended to satisfy the short-term deferral
exception and all Deferred Awards constitute “deferred compensation” subject to
Section 409A.  With respect to any Incentive Award that constitutes
“deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A, (1) references to termination
of the Participant’s employment will mean the Participant’s separation from
service with the Company within the meaning of Section 409A and (2) any payment
to be made with respect to such Incentive Award in connection with the
Participant’s separation from service with the Company within the meaning of
Section 409A that would be subject to the limitations in Section 409A(a)(2)(b)
of the Code will be delayed until six months after the Participant’s separation
from service (or earlier death) in accordance with the requirements of Section
409.  Each payment made under the Plan will be deemed
to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A.  The Committee
will have full authority to give effect to the intent of this Section 9.E. 

F.           
Section 4999.  In the event that any Incentive Award payment
received or to be received by any Participant under this Plan would be subject
to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any similar or
successor provision to Section 4999 (the “Excise Tax”) then, at
the discretion of the Chief Human Resource Officer, such Incentive Award
payment shall be reduced up to the largest amount which would result in no
portion of the Incentive Award payment being subject to the Excise Tax.  The
determination of any such reduction pursuant to this Section 9.F will be
made by the Senior C&B Executive, and such determination will be conclusive
and binding upon the Company, the Participant, the Senior C&B Executive and
the Committee for all purposes.

G.          
Section Headings.  The section headings contained herein are for
convenience only, and in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan,
rather than the headings will control.

H.          
Severability.  If any term or provision contained herein is
finally held to be, to any extent, invalid, illegal or unenforceable (whether
in whole or in part), such provision will be deemed modified only to the extent
of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability and the remaining provisions
will not be affected thereby.

I.            
No Third Party Beneficiaries.  Except as expressly provided
herein, this Plan will not confer on any person other than AIG and the
Participant any 

-6-

 

 

rights or remedies hereunder. The
exculpation and indemnification provisions of Section 8.C will inure to
the benefit of a Covered Person’s estate and beneficiaries and legatees.

J.           
Nonassignability.  No award (or any rights and obligations
thereunder) granted to any person under the Plan may be sold, exchanged,
transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of or
hedged, in any manner (including through the use of any cash-settled
instrument), whether voluntarily or involuntarily and whether by operation of
law or otherwise, other than by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution, except as may be otherwise provided in the award agreement.  Any
sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, or other
disposition in violation of the provisions of this Section 9.J  will
be null and void and any award which is hedged in any manner will immediately
be forfeited.  All of the terms and conditions of this Plan and the award
agreements will be binding upon any permitted successors and assigns.

K.           
Entire Understanding.  The Plan and, with respect to a
Performance Year, the applicable Administrative Guide, contains the entire
understanding of the Company and the Participants with respect to the subject
matter thereof and supersedes all prior promises, covenants, arrangements,
agreements, communications, representations and understanding between the
Company and the Participant.

L.           
No Right of Employment.  Nothing in this Plan will be construed
as creating any contract of employment or conferring upon the Participant any
right to continue in the employ or other service of the Company, or any of its
subdivisions or subsidiaries, or limit in any way the right of the Company to
change such Participant’s compensation or benefits or to terminate the
employment or other service of such Participant with or without Cause.

M.          
Successor and Assigns.  The terms of this Plan will inure to the
benefit of AIG and any successor entity.

N.           
Subject to Any AIG Section 162(m) Plan.   AIG may, in any
year, propose a Section 162(m) compliant
performance incentive award plan (the “AIG Section 162(m) Plan”). 
If an AIG Section 162(m) Plan is proposed and approved by the AIG stockholders
in accordance with Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code and Treasury Regulation
Section 1.162‐27(e)(4), this Plan will function as a sub-plan under the
AIG Section 162(m) Plan, whereby performance compensation amounts payable under
the AIG Section 162(m) Plan can be paid in part by accruing awards with respect
to a Performance Year.

O.          
No Liability With Respect to Tax Qualification or Adverse Tax
Treatment.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in
no event shall the Company be liable to a Participant on account of the failure
of any Incentive Award or amount payable under this Plan to (a) qualify
for favorable United States or foreign tax treatment or (b) avoid adverse tax
treatment under United States or foreign law, including, without limitation,
Section 409A.

10.        
 Governing Law.

The Plan will be governed and
enforced in accordance with the appropriate country and local regulations. 
With respect to Participants working in the United States, this Plan will be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York,
without regard to principles of conflict of laws.

The Plan shall also be subject to
all applicable non-U.S. laws as to Participants located outside of the United
States. In the event that any provision of this Plan is not permitted by the
local laws of a country or jurisdiction in which a Participant works, such
local law shall supersede that provision of this Plan with respect to that
Participant.  The  Senior HR Attorney and the Senior C&B Executive or their
designee(s) shall have the discretion to operate the Plan with respect to such
Participant in a manner that incorporates as much of the Plan’s current terms
as possible while also complying with such local laws.

11.        
 Plan Termination; Amendment

The Plan may be amended or
modified, with or without prior notification of the Participants, at any time
in the sole discretion of the Committee.  The Plan will continue until
suspended or terminated by the Committee in its sole discretion; provided
that all Incentive Awards made under the Plan before its suspension or
termination will remain in effect until such awards have been satisfied or
terminated in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Plan and the
applicable award.  Any termination of this Plan will be done in a manner that
the Committee determines complies with Section 409A. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Committee’s rights and powers to amend the Plan shall be delegated to the
Senior C&B Executive, who shall have the right to amend the Plan with
respect to (i) amendments required by relevant law, regulation or ruling, (ii)
amendments that are not expected to have a material financial impact on the
Company, (iii) amendments that can reasonably be characterized as technical or
ministerial in nature or (iv) amendments that have previously been approved in
concept by the Committee.  Notwithstanding the foregoing delegation, the Senior
C&B Executive shall not have the power to make an amendment to the Plan
that could reasonably be expected to result in a termination of the Plan or a
change in the structure or the powers, duties or responsibilities of the
Committee, unless such amendment is approved or ratified by the Committee.

12.        
 Effective Date

The Plan is effective as of the 2014 Performance Year,
and will continue thereafter until terminated by the Committee; provided,
however, that the existence of the Plan at any time or from time to time
does not guarantee or imply the payment of any Incentive Awards hereunder, or
the establishment of any future plans or the continuation of this Plan.

which are governed by the terms of the respective plans (and any agreements
