and for the account of financial institutions.
We are an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of American International Group,
Inc. We are incorporated in the State of California and maintain our principal
executive offices at 1999 Avenue of the Stars, 39th Floor, Los Angeles,

</TABLE>
We computed the ratios of earnings to fixed charges by dividing earnings by
fixed charges. For this purpose, "earnings" consist of income before income
taxes plus fixed charges (excluding capitalized interest), and "fixed charges"
consist of interest expense and capitalized interest.
THE DEBT SECURITIES WE MAY OFFER
We may offer up to $2,000,000,000 in debt securities. We may sell the debt
securities through underwriters or dealers, directly to purchasers or through
agents. The prospectus supplement and the pricing supplement, if one is used,
will describe the specific amounts, prices and terms of the debt securities.
THE DEBT SECURITIES
We may from time to time offer debt securities which are unsecured and
unsubordinated obligations of our Company. These debt securities will rank
equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated debt which, at
November 30, 2000, aggregated approximately $11.4 billion.
We have summarized the general features of the debt securities below. We
encourage you to read the indenture which governs the debt. A copy of the
indenture is incorporated
3
<PAGE> 5
by reference as Exhibit 4 to this Registration Statement and is available to the
public. See "Where You Can Find More Information."
The following are general indenture provisions that relate to the debt
securities offered by this prospectus.
- The indenture does not limit the amount of debt that we may issue or
provide a holder of debt securities offered by this prospectus with any
protection from the consequences of a highly leveraged transaction
involving us.
- The indenture allows us to merge or consolidate with another company, or
sell all or substantially all of our assets to another company, subject
to certain conditions. If these events occur, the other company will be
required to assume our responsibilities on the debt and, in a merger or
consolidation where we are not the surviving corporation, we will have no
further liabilities or obligations with respect to the debt securities.
- Upon our request to change an obligation created by the indenture, the
holders of a majority of the total principal amount of the debt
outstanding in any series may vote to change our obligations or your
rights concerning the debt in that series. We may also amend or
supplement the indenture for certain purposes without the consent of any
holder of debt securities. However, to change any term relating to the
payment of principal or interest for a series of debt securities, every
holder in the affected series must consent.
- Under certain conditions, we may discharge the indenture at any time by
depositing sufficient funds with the trustee to pay the obligations when
due. All amounts due to you on the debt would be paid by the trustee from
the deposited funds.
The following are events of default under the indenture:
- Our failure to pay interest for 30 days.
- Our failure to pay principal and any premium when due.
- Our failure to make any sinking fund payment when due.
- Our failure to perform covenants for 60 days after receipt of notice to
cure.
- Our failure to pay our debt under any mortgage or indenture of at least
$50,000,000 when due and payable other than as a result of acceleration,
or which becomes due upon acceleration which is not rescinded or such
debt discharged, each within 30 days after written notice to us.
- Certain events in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization.
- Any other events of default relating to a specific series of debt
securities and set forth in the prospectus supplement for those debt
securities.
If there is an event of default, the trustee of holders of at least 25% of
the principal amount outstanding of a series may declare the principal
immediately payable for that series. However, holders of a majority in principal
amount of that series may cancel this declaration.

PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
The prospectus supplement provides the specific terms of the debt
securities and may differ from the general information provided in this
prospectus. You should rely on the prospectus supplement if the information we
provide in it is different from the information contained in this prospectus.
DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES
We may offer unsecured and unsubordinated debt securities (the "Debt
Securities") under an indenture dated as of November 1, 2000 (the "Indenture"),
between us and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the "Trustee"). The following
is a summary of certain provisions of the Debt Securities and of the Indenture
and does not contain all of the information which may be important to you. You
should read all provisions of the Indenture carefully, including the definitions
of certain terms, before you decide to invest in the Debt Securities. If we
refer to particular sections or defined terms of the Indenture, we mean to
incorporate by reference those sections or defined terms of the Indenture. A
copy of the Indenture is incorporated by reference as an Exhibit to this
Registration Statement. See "Where You Can Find More Information."
GENERAL
The Debt Securities will rank equally with our other unsecured and
unsubordinated indebtedness which, at November 30, 2000, aggregated
approximately $11.4 billion. The Indenture does not limit the amount of Debt
Securities that we may issue. We may issue Debt Securities in one or more
series, with the same or various maturities, at par, or with original issue
discount. The prospectus supplement will describe any Federal income tax
consequences and other special considerations applicable to any Debt Securities
issued with original issue discount.

<PAGE> 8
The prospectus supplement will set forth the initial offering price, the
aggregate principal amount and the following terms of the Debt Securities:
(1) the title;
(2) any limit on the aggregate principal amount of a particular series;
(3) to whom interest on the Debt Securities should be paid if other than
the registered owner;
(4) the date or dates on which we agree to pay principal;
(5) the rate or rates of interest for the Debt Securities (which may be
fixed or variable) and, if applicable, the method used to determine the
rate or rates of interest, the date or dates from which interest will
accrue, the dates that interest shall be payable and the record date
for the payment of the interest;
(6) the place or places where principal and interest will be payable, or
the method of such payment;
(7) the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which, and
the terms and conditions upon which the Debt Securities may be
redeemed, in whole or in part, at our option;
(8) any mandatory or optional sinking fund or analogous provisions and our
obligation, if any, to redeem or repurchase the Debt Securities
pursuant to any sinking fund or similar provisions or at the option of
a holder thereof, and the period, price and terms and conditions for
the redemption or repurchase;
(9) the currency or currencies in which we agree to make payments on Debt
Securities;
(10) the method of determining amounts of principal, any premium and
interest payable on the Debt Securities if these amounts are
calculated in reference to an index;
(11) the amount of principal that we will pay upon acceleration, if other
than the entire principal amount;
(12) whether we will issue the debt securities in certificates or
book-entry form (see "Certificated Securities" and "Global Securities"
below);
(13) any additional Events of Default, if any; and
(14) any additional terms.
PAYMENT OF INTEREST AND EXCHANGE
We will issue the Debt Securities of each series either in the form of one
or more global securities (a "Global Security") registered in the name of Cede &
Co. as the nominee of The Depository Trust Company (the "Depositary"), or as a
certificate issued in definitive registered form (a "Certificated Security"), as
set forth in the prospectus supplement. If we do not state the form of a series
of Debt Securities in a prospectus supplement, we are issuing the series as a
Global Security. Principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, is to be paid
to registered holders at the office of the Trustee in the
7
<PAGE> 9
Borough of Manhattan City and State of New York or at any paying agency
maintained by the Company for that purpose as described under "Global
Securities" below. We may provide at our option for payment of interest to
registered holders of Certificated Securities by check mailed to the address of
the holder as it appears on the register for the Certificated Securities.
CERTIFICATED SECURITIES
A holder may present Certificated Securities for transfer or exchange at
the Trustee's office or paying agencies in accordance with the terms of the
Indenture unless the prospectus supplement states otherwise. There will not be a
service charge for any transfer or exchange of Certificated Securities, but the
transfer or exchange is subject to other limitations set forth in the Indenture.
GLOBAL SECURITIES
Unless we tell you otherwise in a prospectus supplement, we will register
each Global Security representing Debt Securities in the name of Cede & Co., as
nominee of the Depositary. Cede & Co. may not transfer any Global Security, in
whole or in part, to anyone except the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary
unless it is exchanged first for a Certificated Security.
The information under the headings "The Depositary" and "Book-Entry System"
in this section concerning the Depositary and the Depositary's book-entry system
has been obtained from sources we believe to be reliable.
The Depositary
The Depositary is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New
York Banking Law. It is also a "banking organization" within the meaning of the
New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing
corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and a
"clearing agency" registered under the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange
Act. The Depositary holds securities deposited by persons that have accounts
with the Depositary, which it refers to as "Direct Participants". The Depositary
also facilitates the settlement among Direct Participants and Indirect
Participants, as defined below, of securities transactions in deposited
securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in Direct
Participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of
securities certificates.
The Depositary is owned by a number of its Direct Participants and by the
New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange, Inc., and the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Indirect Participants in the
Depositary's book-entry system include securities brokers and dealers, banks and
trust companies. Indirect Participants access the Depositary's system by
clearing through or maintaining custodial relationships with a Direct
Participant.
The laws of some states require that certain purchasers of securities take
physical delivery of the securities in definitive form. Those laws may impair
the ability to transfer beneficial interests in Debt Securities represented by
Global Securities.
8
<PAGE> 10
Book-Entry System
We anticipate that the following provisions will apply to all depositary
arrangements unless the prospectus supplement states otherwise.
Ownership of beneficial interests in Debt Securities will be limited to
Direct Participants or persons that may hold an interest through Direct
Participants, such as securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies.
We refer to these persons holding through Direct Participants as "Indirect
Participants."
Upon the issuance of a Global Security, the Depositary will credit, on its
book-entry registration and transfer system, to the accounts of the applicable
Direct Participants, the respective principal amounts of the Debt Securities
represented by such Global Security. The accounts to be credited will be
designated by any underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of
those Debt Securities. Purchases of Debt Securities under the Depositary's
system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a
credit for the Debt Securities on the Depositary's records. The ownership
interest of each actual purchaser of Debt Securities will be recorded on the
Direct Participants' and Indirect Participants' records. We refer to these
actual purchasers as "Beneficial Owners."
Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from the Depositary
of their purchase, but Beneficial Owners are expected to receive written
confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic
statements of their holdings, from the Direct Participant or Indirect
Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction.
Transfers of ownership interests in the Debt Securities are expected to be
effected by entries made on the books of Participants acting on behalf of
Beneficial Owners.
So long as the Depositary or its nominee is the registered owner of a
Global Security, they will be considered the sole owner or holder of the Debt
Securities represented by that Global Security for all purposes under the
Indenture. Beneficial Owners will not be entitled to have the Debt Securities
represented by a Global Security registered in their names, will not receive or
be entitled to receive physical delivery of Debt Securities in definitive form
and will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the Indenture.
We will make payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on
Book-Entry Securities to the Depositary or its nominee, as the registered owner
of the Global Security. Neither we nor the Trustee or any of our agents will
have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to
or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in a Global
Security, or with respect to maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records
relating to a beneficial ownership interest.
We expect that the Depositary, upon receipt of any principal, premium or
interest payment, will immediately credit Direct Participants' accounts with
payments in amounts proportionate to the respective beneficial interests in the
Global Security, as shown on the records of the Depositary. We also expect that
payments by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants and by Direct
Participant and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by
standing instructions and customary practices, and accordingly will be the
responsibility of the Participants.
As long as the Debt Securities are held by the Depositary or its nominee
and the Depositary continues to make its same day funds settlement system
available to us, all payments of principal and interest on the Debt Securities
will be made in immediately
9
<PAGE> 11
available funds. We are advised that the Depositary's practice is to credit
Direct Participants' accounts on the applicable payment date unless the
Depositary has reason to believe that it will not receive payment on that date.
Secondary trading in long-term notes and debentures of corporate issuers is
generally settled in clearing house or next-day funds. However, we expect that
the Debt Securities will trade in the Depositary's Same-Day Funds Settlement
system. Accordingly, the Depositary will require that secondary trading activity
in the Debt Securities settle in immediately available funds. We do not make any
assurances as to any possible effect the requirement for settlement in
immediately available funds could have on trading activity in the Debt
Securities.
We expect that the forwarding of notices and other communications by the
Depositary to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect
Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial
Owners will be governed by arrangements among themselves, subject to any
statutory or regulatory requirements which may be in effect. Neither the
Depositary nor Cede & Co. will consent or vote with respect to the Debt
Securities. We are advised that the Depositary's usual procedure is to mail an
omnibus proxy to us as soon as possible after the record date with respect to
any such consent or vote. The omnibus proxy would assign Cede & Co.'s consenting
or voting rights to the Direct Participants to whose accounts the Debt
Securities are credited on the applicable record date, which will be identified
in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy.
In the event the Depositary is unwilling or unable to continue as
Depositary for a series of Debt Securities and we do not appoint a successor
Depositary within 90 days, we will issue the Debt Securities in certificated
form in exchange for the Global Security.
We may decide at any time not to have Debt Securities of a particular
series represented by one or more Global Securities and, accordingly will issue
Debt Securities representing such series in certificated form in exchange for
all of the Global Security or Securities representing those Debt Securities.
CERTAIN COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY
Restrictions on Liens. We will not, and will not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, issue, assume or guarantee any indebtedness for borrowed money
secured by any mortgage, as defined under the heading "Certain Definitions"
below:
- upon any of our property or the property of any Restricted Subsidiary, as
defined under the heading "Certain Definitions" below, or
- upon any shares of any Restricted Subsidiary,
without ensuring that the Debt Securities are equally and ratably secured. We
may also choose to secure our other indebtedness and the indebtedness of a
Restricted Subsidiary ranking equally with the Debt Securities at the time we
secure the Debt Securities. This limitation does not apply to:
(1) mortgages existing on November 1, 2000;
(2) certain mortgages securing all or a part of the purchase price of
property, other than property acquired for lease to another person;
10
<PAGE> 12
(3) mortgages on the property of a Restricted Subsidiary existing at the
time it became a Restricted Subsidiary;
(4) mortgages securing indebtedness for borrowed money owed by a Restricted
Subsidiary to us or another Restricted Subsidiary;
(5) mortgages on property of another corporation that are in existence at
the time we or a Restricted Subsidiary acquire the property of that
corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, including
acquisition by merger or consolidation;
(6) any replacement of any of the items listed in clauses (1) through (5)
above, provided that the principal amount of the indebtedness secured
by the mortgage may not be increased and the principal repayment
schedule and maturity may not be extended and the mortgage is limited
to the same property subject to the mortgage replaced or property
substituted therefor;
(7) liens in connection with certain legal proceedings;
(8) liens for certain taxes or assessments, landlord's liens and charges
incidental to the conduct of our business or the ownership of property
and assets by ourselves or a Restricted Subsidiary, if the liens are
not incurred in connection with the borrowing of money and do not, in
our opinion, materially impair the use of that property in our business
operations or the business operations of a Restricted Subsidiary or the
value to the business of that property; and
(9) mortgages not otherwise excepted above which, when aggregated with all
other outstanding indebtedness for borrowed money of ours and of
Restricted Subsidiaries secured by mortgages and not listed in clauses
(1) through (8) above, do not exceed 12.5% of our Consolidated Net
Tangible Assets, as defined under the heading "Certain Definitions"
below.
Restrictions as to Dividends and Certain Other Payments. We may not pay or
declare any dividend or make any distributions on any of our capital stock,
except certain stock and other distributions, or make any payment ourselves or
through any Restricted Subsidiary to acquire or retire shares of stock, at a
time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture
because:
(1) we have failed to pay interest on the Debt Securities of that series
when due and continue not to pay for 30 days;
(2) we have failed to pay the principal and premium, if any, on the Debt
Securities of that series when due either at maturity, upon redemption,
or when due by declaration or otherwise; or
(3) we have failed to deposit any sinking fund payment with respect to Debt
Securities of that series when and as due.
Restrictions on Investments in Non-Restricted Subsidiaries. We will not,
nor will we permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, invest in or transfer assets to
a Non-Restricted Subsidiary if immediately after the transfer we would be in
breach of or default under the Indenture.
Limited Covenants in the Event of a Highly Leveraged Transaction. Other
than our covenants included in the Indenture described above and as described
below in "Merger and Sale of Assets," there are no covenants or provisions in
the Indenture that afford
11
<PAGE> 13
holders protection should we participate in a highly leveraged transaction,
leveraged buyout, reorganization, restructuring, merger or similar transaction.
CERTAIN DEFINITIONS
Certain significant terms which are defined in the Indenture are set forth
below:
"Consolidated Net Tangible Assets" means the total amount of assets (less
depreciation and valuation reserves and other reserves and items deductible from
the gross book value of specific asset accounts under generally accepted
accounting principles) which under generally accepted accounting principles
would be included on a balance sheet for us together with our Restricted
Subsidiaries, after deducting:
(1) all liability items except indebtedness (whether incurred, assumed or
guaranteed) for borrowed money maturing by its terms more than one year
from the date of creation thereof or which is extendible or renewable
at the sole option of the obligor in a manner where it could become

shareholder's equity and reserves for deferred income taxes,
(2) all goodwill, trade names, trademarks, patents, unamortized debt
discount and expense and other like intangibles, which in each case,
would be included on our balance sheet, and

(2) any other Subsidiary of which one or more Non-Restricted Subsidiaries owns,
directly or indirectly, the majority of the voting stock, if a corporation, or,
if a limited partnership, in which the Non-Restricted Subsidiary is a general
partner.
"Restricted Subsidiaries" means all Subsidiaries other than Non-Restricted
Subsidiaries. Our Board of Directors may change the designations of Restricted
Subsidiaries and Non-Restricted Subsidiaries, subject to specified conditions in
the Indenture.
"Subsidiary" means any corporation, partnership or trust of which we or a
Subsidiary own, or we together with one or more Subsidiary own, directly or
indirectly, more than 50% of the Voting Stock.
MERGER AND SALE OF ASSETS
We may consolidate with or merge into any other Person or convey, transfer
or lease our properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person,
and another Person may consolidate or merge with us or convey, transfer or lease
its properties and assets to us substantially as an entirety on the following
conditions:
(1) the entity formed by consolidation or merger or to which such assets or
properties are conveyed, transferred or leased, is a corporation,
partnership or trust organized and validly existing under the laws of
the United States, any State or
12
<PAGE> 14
the District of Columbia and such Person expressly assumes our
obligations under the Indenture;
(2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of
Default, and no event which, after notice or lapse of time or both,
would become an Event of Default, has happened and is continuing; and
(3) if our property or assets become subject to a mortgage, pledge, lien,
security interest or other encumbrance not permitted by the Indenture,
each of ourselves and such entity have taken appropriate steps to
secure any of the Debt Securities equally and ratably with the
securities secured thereby.
Upon such consolidation, merger or conveyance, transfer or lease, the
successor entity shall be substituted for us under the Indenture and, except in
the case of such a lease, we will be relieved of all obligations under the
Indenture.
AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER OF THE INDENTURE
We, together with the Trustee, may amend or supplement the Indenture with
the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding
Debt Securities of each series affected by such amendment or supplement. Any
past default by ourselves and its consequences may be waived with the consent of
the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Debt Securities
of each series affected by such default. However, we may not enter into any
amendment, supplement or waiver without the consent of the holders of all
affected Debt Securities if the amendment, supplement or waiver would:
(1) cause a change in the stated maturity of principal or any installment
of principal or interest on any Debt Security;
(2) reduce the principal amount payable or the rate of interest thereon or
any premium payable upon the redemption of the Debt Security;
(3) change the stated maturity of any Debt Security (or reduce the amount
payable upon a declaration of acceleration);
(4) change the time for payment of any interest on any Debt Security;
(5) make any Debt Security payable in a currency other than that stated in
the Debt Security; or
(6) reduce the stated percentage of principal amount of Debt Securities
whose holders must consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver.
We, together with the Trustee, may, without the consent of any holder of
Debt Securities, amend or supplement the Indenture for purposes including:
(1) to evidence our succession by another corporation;
(2) to add covenants or additional Events of Default for the benefit of the
holders of all or any series of Debt Securities;
(3) to cure any ambiguity;
13
<PAGE> 15
(4) to correct any provision of the Indenture inconsistent with other
provisions or make any other provision which does not adversely
materially affect the interests of the holders of Debt Securities; or
(5) to change or eliminate any provision of the Indenture if such change or
elimination is effective only when there are no Debt Securities
outstanding issued prior to such change or elimination and entitled to
the benefit of such provision.
EVENTS OF DEFAULT
The Indenture defines an Event of Default as being any one of the following
occurrences:
(1) our failure to pay interest on the Debt Securities of that series when
due and the continuation of our failure to pay for 30 days;
(2) our failure to pay the principal and premium, if any, on the Debt
Securities of that series when due at maturity, when due upon
redemption, or when due by declaration or otherwise;
(3) our failure to deposit of any sinking fund payment for that series of
Debt Securities when and as due;
(4) our default in the performance of any other covenant contained in the
Indenture (except as to covenants included in the Indenture not for the
benefit of that particular series of Debt Securities) continued for 60
days after written notice;
(5) our default under any mortgage, indenture (including the Indenture) or
instrument under which indebtedness for borrowed money is issued or is
secured or evidenced, which default constitutes a failure to pay
principal of such indebtedness in an amount exceeding $50,000,000 when
due and payable (other than as a result of acceleration) or results in
indebtedness for borrowed money in the aggregate of $50,000,000 or more
becoming or being declared due and payable before its terms, and such
acceleration is not rescinded or annulled, or such indebtedness for
borrowed money is not discharged within 30 days after written notice to
us by the Trustee, or notice to each of ourselves and the Trustee by
the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Debt
Securities of that series;
(6) certain events in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization; or
(7) any other events of default provided with respect to the Debt
Securities.
If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders
of at least 25% in principal amount of the Debt Securities of each affected
series may declare the Debt Securities of that series to be due and payable
immediately, but under certain conditions such acceleration may be rescinded by
the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Debt Securities of each
affected series.
14
<PAGE> 16
The holder of any Debt Security of a series will not have any right to
institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or remedies thereunder,
unless
(1) the holder previously gives the Trustee written notice of an Event of
Default,
(2) the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding
Debt Securities of that series shall have also made such written
request to the Trustee and offered the Trustee satisfactory indemnity
to institute such proceeding as Trustee, and
(3) the Trustee for 60 days shall have failed to institute such proceeding.
However, the right of any holder of any Debt Security to institute suit for
enforcement of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on such
Debt Security on or after the applicable due date, may not be impaired or
affected without such holder's consent.
The holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Debt
Securities of any series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or for exercising any trust
or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to Debt Securities of that
series. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts
with any rule of law or the Indenture. Before proceeding to exercise any right
or power under the Indenture at the direction of such holders, the Trustee shall
be entitled to receive reasonable security or indemnity from such Holders
against the costs, expenses and liabilities which could be incurred in
compliance with any such direction. The Trustee may withhold from holders of
Debt Securities notice of any continuing default (except a default in payment of
principal, premium, if any, or interest), if it determines that withholding
notice is in their interests.
We are required to furnish to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of
each fiscal year a statement as to whether any default under the Indenture
occurred during the fiscal year.
DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE
We may discharge our obligations under the Indenture with respect to any
series of Debt Securities other than:
1. our obligation to register, transfer and exchange certificated Debt
Securities;
2. our obligations with respect to mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen certificated Debt Securities;
3. our obligations to maintain an office or agency in the place
designated for payment of the Debt Securities and with respect to the
treatment of funds held by paying agents; and
4. certain obligations to the Trustee.
We refer to this is a "defeasance." We may also be released from the
restrictions described under the heading "Certain Covenants of the Company"
above and any other restrictions identified in the applicable prospectus
supplement with respect to a series of Debt Securities. We refer to this as
"covenant defeasance."
15
<PAGE> 17
The conditions we must satisfy for defeasance or covenant defeasance
include the following:
A.We must have irrevocably deposited with the Trustee or another
satisfactory trustee, trust funds for the payment of the Debt Securities
of that series. The trust funds must consist of money or U.S. Government
Obligations, as defined below, or a combination thereof, which will be in
an amount sufficient without reinvestment to pay at maturity or
redemption the entire amount of principal, premium, if any, and interest
on the Debt Securities of that series.
B.No Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both
would become an Event of Default with respect to the Debt Securities of
that series has occurred and is continuing on the date we make the
deposit and, for certain purposes, has occurred during the period ending
on the 123rd day after the date of the deposit, or any longer preference
periods.
C.The defeasance or covenant defeasance will not cause the Trustee to have
a conflicting interest as referred to in the Indenture.
D.The defeasance or covenant defeasance will not result in a breach or
violation of the Indenture or other material agreements or instruments or
cause the Debt Securities of that series, if listed on a national
securities exchange, to be delisted.
In the case of defeasance, we are also required to deliver to the Trustee
an opinion of counsel stating that we have received a direct ruling from the
Internal Revenue Service, or such a ruling has been published, or since the date
of the Indenture there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax
law, such that the holders of the outstanding Debt Securities of the series to
be defeased will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax
purposes as a result of the defeasance. The ruling must provide that the holders
of the outstanding Debt Securities to be defeased will be subject to Federal
income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner, and at the same times as
would have been the case if the defeasance had not occurred.
In the case of a covenant defeasance, we are required to deliver to the
Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the outstanding
Debt Securities of the series for which covenant defeasance is proposed will not
recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of
the covenant defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if
the covenant defeasance had not occurred.
"U.S. Government Obligations" is defined in the Indenture as securities
that are:
(a) direct obligations of the United States of America for the payment of
which its full faith and credit is pledged, or
(b) obligations of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an
agency or instrumentality of the United States of America, the payment
of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit
obligation by the United States of America.
In either case, the U.S. Governmental Obligations may not be callable or
redeemable at the option of the issuer, and shall also include a depositary
receipt issued by a bank, as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, as custodian with respect to that U.S. Government Obligation
or a specific payment of principal of or
16
<PAGE> 18
interest on that U.S. Government Obligation held by the custodian for the
account of the holder of the depositary receipt.
THE TRUSTEE
The Trustee has functioned as an unsecured lender to us from time to time.
In addition, we may maintain deposit accounts and conduct other banking
transactions with the Trustee in the ordinary course of business.
GOVERNING LAW
The Indenture and the Debt Securities will be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We may sell the Debt Securities either: (1) through underwriters or
dealers; (2) directly to one or more purchasers; or (3) through agents.
If underwriters or dealers are used in the sale, the underwriters or
dealers will acquire the Debt Securities for their own account and may later
resell the Debt Securities. Resale transactions for the Debt Securities may
include negotiated transactions, the resale at a fixed public offering price or
resale at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The Debt Securities may
be offered to the public through underwriting syndicates which may be
represented by managing underwriters. Such underwriting firms may purchase and
sell the Debt Securities in the secondary market, but they are not obligated to
do so. There are no assurances that there will be a secondary market for the
Debt Securities. The obligations of the underwriters to purchase the Debt
Securities will be subject to certain conditions. The underwriters will be
obligated to purchase all the Debt Securities of a series if any are purchased.
Any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or
reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.
We may also sell the Debt Securities directly or through agents designated
by us. We will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the Debt
Securities and state any commissions paid by us to that agent in the prospectus
supplement. We will set forth in the prospectus supplement the net proceeds we
will receive from the sale of the Debt Securities. Unless indicated in the
prospectus supplement, any agent is acting on a best efforts basis for the
period of its appointment. Any agent will also be deemed to be an underwriter as
that term is defined in the Securities Act.
We may authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers by
certain institutional investors to purchase Debt Securities at the public
offering price provided in the prospectus supplement and provide for payment and
delivery on a future date specified in the prospectus supplement. Contracts for
those delayed purchases will be subject only to the conditions contained in the
prospectus supplement and the prospectus supplement will set forth the
commission to be paid for solicitation of those contracts.
We may indemnify any underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in
the distribution of the Debt Securities against certain civil liabilities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act. We also may agree to make
contributions with respect to payments
17
<PAGE> 19
which the agents or underwriters may be required to make. Those underwriters,
dealers and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform
services for us in the ordinary course of business.
AIG Financial Securities Corp., one of our affiliates, may act as an
underwriter, dealer or agent in a sale of the Debt Securities. Any sale
involving AIG Financial Securities Corp. will be made pursuant to the provisions
of Rule 2720 of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
AIG Financial Securities Corp. will not confirm initial sales to any
discretionary accounts over which it has authority without the prior written
approval of the customer.
Our affiliates, including AIG Financial Securities Corp., may use this
prospectus in the initial sale of these securities or in a secondary market
transaction in these or similar securities after their initial sale. We will not
receive any proceeds from secondary market transactions. You may assume that the
prospectus is being used in a secondary market transaction unless we or our
agent or one of our affiliates informs you otherwise.
EXPERTS
Our consolidated financial statements and schedule as of and for the three
years ended December 31, 1999, which are incorporated by reference in this
prospectus from our Annual Report on Form 10-K, have been incorporated in
reliance on the audited report of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent
accountants, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and
accounting.
LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the issuance of the Debt Securities we are offering will be
passed upon for us by O'Melveny & Myers LLP, Los Angeles, California. Morgan,
Lewis & Bockius LLP, Los Angeles, California will pass upon certain legal
matters for the underwriters or agents.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933, unless the information otherwise required to be
included in a post-effective amendment is contained in a periodic report
filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and incorporated herein by reference.
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
in the Registration Statement, unless the information otherwise required
to be included in a post-effective amendment is contained in a periodic
report filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and incorporated herein by
reference. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in
volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities
offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation
from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range may be
reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant
to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate
offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table
in the effective Registration Statement.
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan
of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement
or any material change to such information in the Registration
Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
The registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the Registration
Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 15 above, or otherwise,
the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant
II-2
<PAGE> 23
of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of
the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted against the registrant by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

requirements for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused this Amendment No. 1 to
Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto
