Item 5. Other Events.
The Boards of Directors of AMR Corporation (the "Corporation")
and American Airlines, Inc. ("American") have approved a
reorganization of The SABRE Group as a separate, wholly owned
subsidiary of the Corporation subject to the receipt of a
favorable tax ruling and certain other conditions. This
reorganization will involve the dividend of American's SABRE
Travel Information Network, SABRE Computer Services, SABRE
Development Services and SABRE Interactive divisions to the
Corporation. It is anticipated that upon completion of the
reorganization approximately $850 million of American's debt to
the Corporation will be replaced by an equivalent amount of debt
owed to the Corporation by The SABRE Group. The reorganization
should be completed sometime during the third quarter.
The Corporation also continues to study, as it has in the past,
other transactions which may involve The SABRE Group, such as
strategic partnerships or an initial public offering of a portion
of The SABRE Group's stock. No decisions have been made as to
these other transactions, however, and the Corporation could
determine that conducting the business activities of The SABRE
Group within its new, reorganized structure is in the best
interests of the Corporation's stockholders.
