HOUSTON – September 18, 2018 – American International Group, Inc. (NYSE: AIG) has announced newly reduced rates for Select-a-Term, the flagship term product issued by American General Life Insurance Company (AGL) and The United States Life Insurance Company in the City of New York (US Life). Select-a-Term, long distinguished by a choice of 18 term durations, now features lowered premiums for certain issue ages and risk classes.

• Select-a-Term remains convertible to a permanent life insurance policy until the insured reaches age 70 or the level-term period ends (whichever occurs first).
• The product offers extended conversion eligibility to the full suite of AGL/US Life permanent life insurance products (excluding Survivorship Universal Life policies) for the first eight years of contracts with 10-year term durations or the first 10 years of contracts with term durations of 15  years or longer.
