On January 29, 2007, MBIA Inc. (“MBIA”) issued a press release announcing that MBIA and its principal operating subsidiary MBIA Insurance Corporation (together with MBIA, the “Company”) have concluded civil settlements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the New York State Attorney General’s Office (“NYAG”), and the New York State Insurance Department (“NYSID”) with respect to transactions entered into by the Company in 1998 following defaults on insured bonds issued by the Allegheny Health, Education and Research Foundation. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.

The terms of the settlements, under which the Company neither admits nor denies wrongdoing, include:

 

  •   A restatement, which was completed and reported in MBIA’s third quarter 2005 earnings release, of the Company’s GAAP and statutory financial results for 1998 and subsequent years related to the agreements with AXA Re Finance S.A. and Muenchener Rueckversicherungs-Gesellshaft;

 

  •   Payment of penalties and disgorgement totaling $75 million, of which $60 million will be distributed to MBIA shareholders pursuant to the Fair Fund provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and $15 million will be paid to the State of New York. MBIA accounted for the $75 million in penalties and disgorgement as a charge in the third quarter of 2005;

 

  •   The Company’s consent to a cease and desist order with respect to future violations of securities laws;

 

  •   A report by the Company’s independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers, to MBIA’s Board of Directors, the SEC staff, the NYAG and the NYSID concerning the Company’s accounting for and disclosure of advisory fees and the assets of certain conduits; and

 

  •   Retention of an Independent Consultant to review and report to the SEC, the NYAG and the NYSID on the evaluation previously undertaken at the direction of the Audit Committee of MBIA’s Board of Directors by Promontory Financial Group LLC of the Company’s controls, policies and procedures with respect to compliance, internal audit, governance, risk management and records management; the Company’s implementation of Promontory’s recommendations; the Company’s accounting for and disclosure of its investment in Capital Asset Holdings GP, Inc.; and the Company’s accounting for and disclosure of its exposure to the US Airways 1998-1 Repackaging Trust and any other transaction in which the Company paid or acquired all or substantially all of an issue of insured securities other than as a result of a claim under the related policy.
