FOR WESTERN NATIONAL CORPORATION ACQUISITION
--------------------------------------------
Houston, February 18, 1998 -- American General Corporation (NYSE: AGC) and
Western National Corporation (NYSE: WNH) today jointly announced that American
General expects to complete the $1.2 billion acquisition of the remaining 54% of
Western National on February 25, 1998. The transaction, which was announced on
September 12, 1997, is subject only to approval by Western National shareholders
at a meeting to be held on February 25, 1998.
Western National shareholders will receive consideration valued at $30.8951

each share of their Western National common stock converted into 0.5413 shares

aggregate consideration. The number of diluted shares outstanding will increase

Both the exchange ratio and cash consideration were computed using an
average price of $57.0719 per share of American General common stock. This
average was determined by the average of the daily high and low sales prices of
American General common stock during the 10 consecutive trading days ending on
February 18, 1998.
