AIG's National Union Launches Interactive Application for PrivateRisk Protector(R).

Web-Based Application System Designed to Quickly Bind, Compare and Expedite Quotes

NEW YORK -- National Union Fire Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, Pa.(R) (National Union), a member company of American International Group, Inc. (AIG), today announced the release of the Interactive Application for PrivateRisk Protector([R]). This new Web-based application allows insurance brokers to electronically start and finish the application process in one session. It also enables brokers to close the application while storing all of the data that was input earlier, allowing a broker to open and e-mail the same application to a desired recipient to complete it online and return to the broker for a proposed indication.

The Interactive Application can be used in conjunction with AIG ePro, a Web-based system that allows brokers to quote and bind PrivateRisk Protector coverages in just minutes. PrivateRisk Protector is a portfolio of management and professional liability coverages designed for private companies, including, but not limited to: directors and officers liability; employment practice liability; pension trust liability; fidelity and crime coverage; and Internet media liability.

The PrivateRisk Protector Interactive Application was engineered as a way for brokers to quickly gather client information and turn around quotes on PrivateRisk Protector. Using the new Interactive Application is as simple as word processing, with no training necessary. The key advantages for using the PrivateRisk Protector Interactive Application are:

 --  Lowers transaction costs and saves time. Brokers can use one
     paperless transaction to secure multiple coverages. The
     application can be submitted to an underwriter with one click.
 --  Less administrative work because the application has been pared
     down. Also, the application can be saved and password protected
     to enable brokers to submit 24-hours a day.
 --  Enhanced accuracy from a clear format.

"The new Interactive Application for PrivateRisk Protector was created in response to brokers' requests to simplify, streamline and automate the application process for PrivateRisk Protector," said Brian Inselberg, President, Private and Not-for-Profit Liability Group, National Union. "The introduction of the Interactive Application alongside our ePro quote and bind system are examples of how National Union employs technology to help brokers easily and more cost-effectively conduct business."

The only software required to run the Interactive Application is Adobe Reader 7.0.5 or higher (which can be downloaded free of charge at www.adobe.com). The Interactive Application is accessible at www.accessaig.com, www.aignationalunion.com or www.aigsmallbusiness.com.
