Miller, 73, joined the board in 2009 and became chairman in July2010. Company policy limits the chairman to a five-year term, whichis unlikely to be extended in this case, said the person, who askednot to be identified speaking about board personnel matters.

Miller helped oversee New York-based AIG’s repayment of morethan $182 billion to the U.S. government and the hand-off fromformer Chief Executive Officer Robert Benmosche to the current CEOPeter Hancock.

A spokesman for AIG declined to comment. The WallStreet Journal, which reported Miller’s plan earlier today, saidAIG’s board hasn’t decided on a replacement. Miller would remain aboard member, the newspaper said.

Miller, who titled his memoir “The Turnaround Kid” and helpsrescue companies that are near failure, replaced Harvey Golub aschairman after Golub and Benmosche decided they couldn’t worktogether.
