Exhibit E
THE 2006 EEM VOLARIS TRUST
THIS TRUST AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is entered into on the 7th day
of March, 2006, by and between ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the "Settlor"), and Pitcairn
Trust Company, a Pennsylvania corporation (the "Trustee").
W I T N E S S E T H:
-------------------
FIRST: Name of Trust
----- -------------
This Trust shall be known as the 2006 EEM Volaris Trust (the "Trust").
SECOND: Trust Property
------ --------------
The Settlor hereby transfers, delivers and conveys to the Trustee all
of the Settlor's right, title and interest in and to the property set forth in
Schedule A, and the Trustee acknowledges receipt of such property, IN TRUST, and
agrees to hold, administer and distribute such property, as well as any other
property that may later become subject to this Trust under the terms and
conditions set forth below.
The trust property to which the provisions hereof shall apply shall
include not only the property set forth in Schedule A but also any other
property acceptable to the Trustee which the Settlor may hereafter add during
the Trust term and that may later become subject to this Trust, for the purposes
and on the terms and conditions set forth herein.
THIRD: Trust Purpose
----- -------------
Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the Settlor intends to
avoid any conflict of interest or appearance thereof that may arise from the
Settlor's duties and powers as a shareholder up to the date of this Agreement of
American International Group, Inc. (the "Issuer") in exercising any investment
decisions with regard to shares of the Issuer. In furtherance thereof, the
Settlor hereby creates this Trust, the primary purpose of which is to entrust to
the Trustee the authority (within the terms herein, including, without
limitation, the remaining provisions of this Article THIRD) to make all
decisions and effectuate all decisions as to when and to what extent any
transactions are effected with regard to any assets transferred to the Trust,
including any Issuer stock transferred hereto (the "Shares"), in all instances
without any participation in or knowledge of such decisions by the Settlor, the
Settlor's spouse, any dependent child of the Settlor or the Settlor's spouse, or
any officer, director, shareholder or other person whose relationship to the
Settlor or the Issuer gives such person access, directly or indirectly, to
material information about the Issuer that is not generally available to the
public (an "Interested Party"), subject to the provisions hereof. Although the
Trustee shall have full discretion, the Settlor directs that the Trustee enter
into a contract with Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC substantially in the
form of Schedule B, attached hereto, under which the Trustee will retain Credit
Suisse Securities (USA) LLC to extract returns from the trust's assets
identified in such contract based on stock market volatility, utilizing (i) a
low risk tolerance strategy (as defined in Exhibit B of such contract) when
Issuer common stock has a market price below ninety dollars ($90) per share and
(ii) a medium risk tolerance strategy (as defined in Exhibit B of such contract)
when Issuer common stock has a market price equal to or greater than ($90) per
share. Should such contract terminate for any reason, the Settlor directs the
Trustee to enter into a substantially similar contract with another investment
manager (each investment manager under this agreement, including Credit Suisse
Securities (USA) LLC, hereinafter referred to as the "Adviser" and each
investment manager contract hereinafter referred to as the "Adviser Contract").
Furthermore, the Settlor relieves the Trustee of all responsibility for managing
the underlying assets and hereby limits the Trustee's responsibility to
oversight of the Adviser. The Settlor authorizes the Trustee to rely solely on
statements provided by the Adviser to fulfill its oversight responsibilities as
Trustee. The Settlor acknowledges and agrees that the Settlor and/or his legal
and financial representatives and advisers, has received, reviewed and
understands (i) the disclosures, including, without limitation, the risk
disclosures relating to the Strategy (as defined in the Adviser Contract); (ii)
a copy of Part II of the Adviser's Form ADV; (iii) a copy of the document
entitled Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options, and understands that
the Adviser shall provide a current copy of such document on request; and (iv)
the Risk Disclosure Statement Concerning Derivatives attached as Exhibit C to
the Adviser Contract.
FOURTH: Trust Administration
------ --------------------
(a) The Trustee shall collect the income from the trust property and
shall hold any cash, whether income or principal, received by the Trust in cash
or cash equivalents. The Trustee shall pay to the Settlor the amount of any cash
and cash equivalents on hand to the extent that the value of such cash and cash
equivalents shall be greater than five percent (5%) of the fair market value of
the Shares, measured at the end of each calendar quarter using for valuation
purposes the last sale price as reported on the last trading day on or prior to
the end of such quarter, such payment to be made within thirty (30) days
thereof, provided, however, that the Trustee may, in its absolute discretion,
withhold the payment of any such cash or cash equivalents as a reserve for any
cash requirements of the trust, including any fees, expenses or other
liabilities. The Trustee may pay from time to time so much of the balance of the
net income and principal, including to the extent of all thereof, to or for the
benefit of the Settlor; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not distribute
(other than pursuant to Article FIFTH herein) any Shares to the Settlor unless
otherwise permitted under this Agreement.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the
Trustee shall distribute all net income of the trust during the life of the
Settlor to, and only to, the Settlor or to the Settlor's order (or, if deceased,
to the Settlor's estate), which income shall be so distributed no later than as
soon as practicable after the end of each calendar year, if and to the extent
that the Settlor so directs, and all amounts distributable under this Agreement
during the Settlor's life shall be distributed only to the Settlor or to his
order (or if incapacitated, to the Settlor's duly appointed guardian or
fiduciary).
(c) For purposes of this Article FOURTH, "income" shall include income
from all sources, regardless of whether characterized for other purposes as
principal or income including, without limitation, income generated with respect
to call options and/or other derivative securities.
FIFTH: Trust Termination
----- -----------------
Upon the earliest to occur of (a) the Settlor's death, (b) the
occurrence of an event described in Article EIGHTEENTH, or (c) written notice to
the Trustee from the Settlor or the Settlor's duly appointed guardian or
fiduciary, or an agent under a power of attorney revoking or ordering the
termination of this Trust (in any case, the "Termination Date"), the Trustee
shall distribute the principal (and income, to the extent not previously
distributed) as then constituted to anyone previously designated by the Settlor
in writing, including the Settlor, the Settlor's estate or creditors of the
Settlor's Estate, or, in default of the exercise of such general power of
appointment, to the Settlor if then living; or if incapacitated, to the
Settlor's duly appointed guardian or fiduciary, or an agent under a power of
attorney executed by the Settlor; or if deceased, to the duly qualified legal
representative of the Settlor's estate, including the executors and/or
administrators of the Settlor's estate.
SIXTH: Amendments
----- ----------
This Trust can be amended at any time or from time to time by the
Trustee, but only if the Trustee is advised by the Trustee's or the Settlor's
securities counsel in writing that such amendment is necessary or desirable, and
then only to the extent so necessary or desirable (a) to assure that the Trust
and the sale of the Shares, writing, settling and rolling of call options with
regard to the Shares, or any other derivative strategy effectuated by the
Trustee or its investment adviser relating to the Shares are consistent with (i)
then applicable securities laws, regulations or administrative policies or
interpretations, and (ii) any responsibility that the Trustee, Adviser or the
Settlor may have thereunder or (b) to avoid unanticipated liability of the
Settlor, Trust, Trustee or Adviser thereunder. If the Trustee intends to amend
the Trust pursuant to this Article SIXTH, it shall notify the Settlor in writing
at least three business days before the effective date of such amendment.

A. Prohibition on Direct or Indirect Communications. Except as
otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the Settlor and the Trustee
shall not communicate, directly or indirectly, about the Shares or other
securities in the Issuer.
B. Limitation on Equity Ownership. In no event shall the Settlor place
in the Trust securities that, when aggregated with any securities of the same

other entity (including the Issuer) if such class of securities is registered
under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.
C. Compliance with Rule 144. With respect to transactions, including
but not limited to, any sales, covered call writing programs, derivative

Trustee shall transact in such securities in compliance with Rule 144 of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Rule 144") and make, or cause a third
party, including any Adviser, to make, such filings as required. The Settlor
shall promptly give notice to the Trustee of any intended disposition or
activity that may be deemed a disposition of any of the Issuer's securities held
by the Settlor, the Settlor's spouse or any other person or entity, including
deemed dispositions pursuant to benefit plans, whose transactions in the
Issuer's securities may be aggregated with or attributable to the Settlor, prior
to such disposition or deemed disposition, which may include, but not be limited
to gifts, sales, hedging activities, or other transfers. Such intended
disposition or deemed disposition shall only take place if approved in writing
by the Trustee if in the Trustee's sole discretion such disposition or deemed
disposition is not in conflict with the Trustee's actions required or allowed
under this Trust and Rule 144. Also, to facilitate any Rule 144 filings required
to be made by the Settlor upon such disposition or deemed disposition, the
Trustee shall supply the Settlor with the information required to be completed
on such filing relating to the Trust's activities. In accepting any securities,
the Trustee may rely on the Settlor's representation that such transfer will
comply with the limitations provided in this paragraph.
D. Compliance with Section 16 by the Settlor. The Settlor shall comply
with any and all reporting requirements under Section 16 of the Exchange Act
upon the transfer of any assets to the Trust or back to the Settlor, including

facilitate such compliance, the Trustee shall notify the Settlor and the
Settlor's designated representatives of all transactions effected by the Trust
that may be reportable under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act not later than
one day after initiating each such transaction. In addition, the Settlor will
promptly provide to the Trustee a list of all transactions reportable under
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act executed within seven (7) months previous to
the date hereof by the Settlor or anyone whose activities may be attributed to
the Settlor, including transactions that are exempt from Section 16(b) of the
Exchange Act.
E. Investment Control by the Settlor. The Settlor and the Trustee
acknowledge and agree that the Settlor does not have or share and will not
exercise authority or control over, nor will attempt to influence in any way the
Trustee's decisions that directly or indirectly affect the acquisition or
disposition of any options, derivative securities or other securities of the
Issuer or relating to the Issuer or the Issuer's securities by the Trust,
including decisions to continue to hold an investment ("Investment Decisions").
F. No Voting Control by the Settlor. The Settlor and the Trustee
acknowledge and agree that the Settlor does not have or share and will not
exercise authority or control over, nor will attempt to influence in any way,
the Trustee's decisions relating to the voting of the Shares (or any decision to
refrain from voting on a matter) or the giving of a proxy with respect thereto
("Voting Decisions").
G. No Solicitation of Advice by the Trustee. The Trustee acknowledges
and agrees that it will not under any circumstances request from any Interested
Party, directly or indirectly, any information, regardless of its form, which
may be written, oral, electronic "soft copy" or any other form used to
communicate, concerning, without limitation, the results of operations,
financial condition, technology, research and development activities, employees,
officers, directors, business or prospects of the Issuer or any other
information that could materially influence an Investment Decision or a Voting
Decision ("Advice"). The foregoing notwithstanding, the Settlor and the Trustee
agree and understand that the Trustee, as part of keeping itself fully informed
regarding the Issuer in particular and regarding its industry segment and the
market in general, may participate in analyst calls and other public
communications from the Issuer irrespective of whether the Settlor or any other
Interested Party serves as the spokesperson for the Issuer during the course of
such public communications and further, that participating in such analyst calls
and other public communications and communications with or on behalf of the
Issuer will not be deemed a violation of the Trust, or the Trustee's duties
hereunder. The parties acknowledge and agree that the restrictions on the
"Trustee" in this clause G shall be deemed to apply solely to the employees of
the trust department of any corporate Trustee responsible for administering this
Trust and not to the Trustee in its corporate capacity generally, in its
capacity as a service provider outside of its trust department, or in its
capacity as a service provider to other accounts within its trust department.
H. No Provision of Advice by the Settlor. The Settlor acknowledges and
agrees that under no circumstances, whether directly or indirectly, will he
provide any Advice to the Trustee or to any other person associated with
Investment Decisions or Voting Decisions with respect to the Shares. The Settlor
and the Trustee further acknowledge and agree that, should the Settlor be
approached by any of the foregoing persons seeking to engage in a dialogue (oral
or written) concerning any subject that might have a possible bearing on an
Investment Decision or a Voting Decision, the Settlor will inform the other
person involved in the dialogue of the obligations of the parties hereunder, and
will refrain from providing any Advice during the course of any such dialogue.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Settlor specifically agrees that he will not
provide to the Trustee or its agents or associates any information regarding the
Issuer that he has obtained through his position as a director, officer or
employee of the Issuer or an affiliate of any such director, officer or
employee.
I. Material non-public information. The Trustee represents that the
employees of the Trustee administering the Trust have no material non-public
information about the Issuer and shall not execute any transactions in the Trust
property while in possession of such information. The parties acknowledge and
agree that the restrictions on the "Trustee" in this clause shall be deemed to
apply solely to the employees of the trust department of any corporate Trustee
responsible for administering this Trust and not to the Trustee in its corporate
capacity generally, in its capacity as a service provider outside of its trust
department, or in its capacity as a service provider to other accounts within
its trust department. In addition, the parties agree that the transactions by
the Trustee in the Trust property contemplated hereunder are independent of any
other transactions that Settlor may or may not take with respect to securities
of the Issuer or otherwise.
SEVENTEENTH: Situs of the Trust
----------- ------------------
This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the custom and
usage prevailing in, and be regulated by the laws of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania. As long as the Trust is a Pennsylvania trust, the law governing
the administration of the Trust shall be controlled by Pennsylvania law. If
Trustee proposes to effect any change that would cause the Trust to cease to be
a Pennsylvania trust, it shall notify Settlor at least ten days in advance of
effecting such change. This Article shall apply regardless of any change of
residence of Trustee, or any beneficiary, or the appointment or substitution of
a Trustee residing or doing business in another state.
EIGHTEENTH: Severability of Provisions
---------- --------------------------
If any provisions of this instrument are declared invalid or
unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be carried into
effect; provided, however, that the parties acknowledge that a principal purpose
of the transactions effectuated by the Trust is that the transactions not be
attributable to the Settlor for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and,
if any provision of this Agreement that is necessary or advisable for such
purpose is declared by a court of appropriate jurisdiction to be invalid or
unenforceable, then this Trust will terminate.
NINETEENTH: Loans
---------- -----
The Trustee has the power upon any terms, including on a recourse or
non-recourse basis, to borrow money from any person, including itself, its
successor or any affiliate or any Adviser, in an amount up to ten (10%) percent
of the trust assets, valued as of the date of such loan, to be secured by the
trust assets, for any lawful purpose and to pledge assets as security for
repayment. The Trustee, in its corporate capacity, is also authorized, in its
sole discretion, to lend to the Settlor up to the maximum amount permitted by
law, which loans to the Settlor shall be full recourse against the Settlor.
