SCHEDULE II MBIA INC. (PARENT COMPANY) NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Condensed Financial Statements Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. The activities o f MBIA Inc. (the “Parent Company”) consist of general corporate activities and funding activities, which principally include holding and managing investments, servicing outstanding corporate debt, investment agreements issued by the Parent Company and its subsidiaries, and posting collateral under investment agreement and derivative contracts. The Parent Company is subject to the same liquidity risks and uncertainties as described in footnote 1 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2017, the liquidity position of the Parent Company, which included cash and cash equivalents or short-term investments comprised of highly rated commercial paper, money market funds and municipal, U.S. agency and corporate bonds for general corpo rate purposes, excluding the amount held in escrow under its tax sharing agreement, was $419 million. During 2017, National purchased from the Parent Company, $129 million principal amount of MBIA Inc. 5.70 0% Senior Notes due 2034 that were pr eviously repurchased by the Parent Company and had not been retired. The MBIA Inc. 5.700% Senior Notes due 2034 that were purchased by National were eliminated from the Parent Company’s condensed balance sheet. 2. Accounting Policies T he Parent Company car ries its investments in subsidiaries under the equity method. Certain amounts have been reclassified in prior years’ financial statements to conform to the current presentation. This includes a change in the presentation of cash paid when withholding share s for tax-withholding purposes in “Purchases of treasury stock” on the Parent Company’s condensed statement of cash flows as required under Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718)”. The change in presentati on effected “Operating expenses paid”, in operating cash flows and “Purchases of treasury stock”, in financing cash flows, on the Parent Company’s condensed statement of cash flows in prior periods. The reclassifications had no material impact on total rev enues, expenses, assets, liabilities, shareholders’ equity, operating cash flows, investing cash flows, or financing cash flows for all periods presented. For a further discussion of significant accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements, ref er to footnotes 2 and 3 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 3. Dividends from Subsidiaries During 2017 and 2016, National Public Finance Guarantee Holdings, Inc. declared and paid a dividend of $118 million to the Parent Company. During 2015, National Public Finance Guarantee Holdings, Inc. declared and paid a dividend of $114 million to the Parent Company, Trifinium Holdings Limited d ecl ared and paid dividends of $1 million to the Parent Company and MBIA Services Corp. declared and paid a dividend of $1 million to the Parent Company. 4. Deferred Tax Asset, Net of Valuation Allowance The Parent Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the dif ferences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount tha t more likely than not will be realized. The Parent Company considered all available positive and negative evidence as required by generally accepted accounting principles, to estimate if sufficient taxable income will be generated to use its net deferred tax asset. After considering all positive and negative evidence, including the Parent Company’s inability to objectively identify and forecast future sources of taxable income, the Parent Company concluded in the second quarter of 2017 it did not have suff icient positive evidence to support its ability to use its net deferred tax asset before it would expire. Acc ordingly, the Parent Company established a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax asset. For a further discussion of the net deferre d tax asset, refer to footnote 11 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 5. Obligations under Investment Agreements I nvestment agreement s, as described in footnote 10 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, are conducted by both the Parent Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, MBIA Investment Management Corp. 6. Pledged Collateral Substantially all of the obligations under investment agreements require the Parent Company to pledge securities as collateral. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the fair value of securities pledged as collateral with respect to these investment agreements approximated $350 million and $394 million, respectively. The Parent Company’s collateral as of December 31, 2017, consisted principally of U.S. Treasury and government agency and state and municipal bonds, and was primarily held with major U.S. banks. Additionally, the Parent Company pledged cash and money market securities as collateral under investment agreements in the amount of $6 mil lion as of December 31, 2016. Under derivative contracts entered into by the Parent Company, collateral postings are required by either the Parent Company or the counterparty when the aggregate market value of derivative contracts entered into with the same counterparty exceeds a predefined threshold. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Parent Company pledged securities with a fair value of $237 million and $276 million, respectively, to derivative counterparties. 7. Affiliate Loans Payable Affi liate loans payable consists of loans payable to MBIA Global Funding, LLC (“GFL”). GFL raise d funds through the issuance of medium-term notes with varying maturities, which were, in turn, guaranteed by MBIA Corp. GFL len t the proceeds of these medium-term note issuances to the Parent Company.
