About Ambac
Ambac Financial Group, Inc. ("Ambac"), headquartered in New York
City, is a holding company whose subsidiaries, including its
principal operating subsidiaries, Ambac Assurance Corporation
("AAC"), Everspan Financial Guarantee Corp. and Ambac Assurance UK
Limited ("Ambac UK"), provide financial guarantees and other
financial services to clients in both the public and private
sectors globally. AAC, including the Segregated Account of
AAC (in rehabilitation), is a guarantor of public finance and
structured finance obligations. Ambac’s primary goal is to
maximize stockholder value by executing the following key
strategies: active runoff of AAC and its subsidiaries through
transaction terminations, policy commutations, settlements and
restructurings that we believe will improve our risk profile, and
maximizing the risk-adjusted return on invested assets; loss
recovery through litigation and exercise of contractual and legal
rights; improved cost effectiveness and efficiency of the operating
platform; rationalization of AAC's capital and liability
structures, enabling simplification of corporate governance and
facilitating the successful rehabilitation of the Segregated
Account; and selective business transactions offering attractive
risk adjusted returns that, among other things, may permit
utilization of Ambac’s tax net operating loss carry-forwards.
