Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On February 1, 2008, the Registrant entered into a Capital Support Agreement with Allstate Insurance Company (“AIC”), effective December 14, 2007. By entering into this agreement, AIC will be able to more efficiently manage its capital, including capital invested in the Registrant, on both an ongoing basis and under unusual or unprecedented events that might have an impact on the capital and surplus of AIC or the Registrant, including but not limited to natural or manmade catastrophes and events in the capital markets.
Also on February 1, 2008, the Registrant entered into an Intercompany Liquidity Agreement with AIC, effective January 1, 2008. The agreement establishes a process for making short-term advances between affiliates. Under the agreement, the maximum amount of advances that AIC and the Registrant (each individually) can have outstanding at any one time to affiliates in the aggregate is limited to $1 billion, as is the maximum amount of advances that AIC and the Registrant (each individually) can have outstanding at any one time from affiliates in the aggregate (without netting these amounts.) The agreement does not establish a commitment to advance funds. Advances under the agreement are made at the sole discretion of the party being asked to make an advance at the time of the advance; are payable upon demand following at least ten business days prior notice; and can be prepaid without penalty.
The Registrant is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Insurance Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Allstate Corporation.
