    &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"&gt;American Express is a global service company that provides customers with access to products,
    insights and experiences that enrich lives and build business success. The Company&amp;#8217;s principal
    products and services are charge and credit payment card products and travel-related services
    offered to consumers and businesses around the world.
    &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"&gt;The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
    statements incorporated by reference in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of American Express Company
    (the Company) for the year ended December&amp;#160;31, 2009 (2009 Form 10-K).
    &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"&gt;The interim consolidated financial information in this report has not been audited. In the opinion
    of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated financial
    position and the consolidated results of operations for the interim periods have been made. All
    adjustments made were of a normal, recurring nature. Results of operations reported for interim
    periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. Certain amounts in prior
    periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
    &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"&gt;Accounting estimates are an integral part of the Consolidated Financial Statements. These
    estimates are based, in part, on management&amp;#8217;s assumptions concerning future events. Among the more
    significant assumptions are those that relate to reserves for cardmember losses relating to loans
    and charge card receivables, reserves for Membership Rewards costs, fair value measurement,
    goodwill and income taxes. These accounting estimates reflect the best judgment of management, but
    actual results could differ.
    &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Classification of Cash Balances&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"&gt;The Company recently determined that in periods prior to June&amp;#160;30, 2010, the Company misclassified
    certain book overdraft balances against cash balances on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. Such
    overdraft balances, which arise in the normal course of the Company&amp;#8217;s business activities, should
    have been classified as either accounts payable or other liabilities, depending on the underlying
    nature of the account. The Company has evaluated the effects of these misclassifications and
    concluded that none of them are material to any of the Company&amp;#8217;s previously issued quarterly or
    annual Consolidated Financial Statements. Nevertheless, the Company has elected to revise in this report and future filings its Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to correct
    the effects of these misclassifications.
    &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"&gt;The amounts on prior period Consolidated Balance Sheets that have been revised are summarized
    below:

    &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"&gt;The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)&amp;#160;recently issued the Accounting Standard Update No.
    2010-20&amp;#8212;Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and
    the Allowance for Credit Losses. This standard amends existing guidance by requiring an entity to
    provide a greater level of disaggregated information about the credit quality of its financing
    receivables and its allowance for credit losses. In addition, an entity will be required to
    disclose credit quality indicators, past due information, and modifications of its financing
    receivables. The amendments that require disclosures as of a balance sheet date are effective for
    December&amp;#160;31, 2010. The amendments that require disclosures about activity during a period are
    effective for periods beginning January&amp;#160;1, 2011. The new
    standard is anticipated to require expanded disclosure by the Company due to the requirement for further disaggregation of
    currently disclosed information, as well as new disclosure requirements surrounding reserve
    activity.
    &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"&gt;Effective January&amp;#160;1, 2010, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU)&amp;#160;No.&amp;#160;2009-16,
    Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and ASU No.
    2009-17, Consolidations (Topic 810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved
    with Variable Interest Entities (generally referred to herein as new GAAP effective January&amp;#160;1,
    2010). These standards eliminate the concept of a qualifying special purpose entity (QSPE),
    therefore requiring these entities to be evaluated under the accounting guidance for consolidation
    of variable interest entities (VIEs). In addition, ASU 2009-17 requires an entity to reconsider its
    previous consolidation conclusions reached under the VIE consolidation model, including (i)&amp;#160;whether
    an entity is a VIE, (ii)&amp;#160;whether the enterprise is the VIE&amp;#8217;s primary beneficiary and (iii)&amp;#160;the
    required financial statement disclosures.
    &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"&gt;Upon adoption of new GAAP effective January&amp;#160;1, 2010, the Company was required to change its
    accounting for the American Express Credit Account Master Trust (the Lending Trust), a previously
    unconsolidated VIE, which is now consolidated. As a result, beginning January&amp;#160;1, 2010, the
    securitized cardmember loans and related debt securities issued to third parties by the Lending
    Trust are included on the Company&amp;#8217;s Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company continues to
    consolidate the American Express Issuance Trust (the Charge Trust). Prior period results have not
    been revised for the change in accounting for the Lending Trust. Refer to Note 7 for further
    discussion.

May be provided in more than one note to the financial statements, as long as users are provided with an understanding of (1) the significant judgments and assumptions made by an enterprise in determining whether it must consolidate a VIE and/or disclose information about its involvement with a VIE, (2) the nature of restrictions on a consolidated VIE's assets reported by an enterprise in its statement of financial position, including the carrying amounts of such assets, (3) the nature of, and changes in, the risks associated with an enterprise's involvement with the VIE, and (4) how an enterprise's involvement with the VIE affects the enterprise's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.  Describes procedure if disclosures are provided in more than one note to the financial statements.</ElementDefenition>
