Item 1.01.  ENTRY INTO A DEFINITIVE MATERIAL AGREEMENT.

On November 21, 2012, MBIA Inc. (the “Company” or “MBIA”) and The Bank of New York, as trustee, entered into (i) a Second Supplemental Indenture (the “1990 Second Supplemental Indenture”) that amended the Indenture, dated as of August 1, 1990 (the “1990 Indenture”), governing the Company’s 6.40% Senior Notes due 2022, 7.00% Debentures due 2025, 7.15% Debentures due 2027 and 6.625% Debentures due 2028, and (ii) a Second Supplemental Indenture (the “2004 Second Supplemental Indenture”) that amended the Senior Indenture, dated as of November 24, 2004 (the “2004 Indenture”), governing the Company’s 5.70% Senior Notes due 2034.

The 1990 Second Supplemental Indenture amends the 1990 Indenture to substitute one of the Company’s subsidiaries, National Public Finance Guarantee Corporation (“National”), for another subsidiary, MBIA Insurance Corporation (“MBIA Corp.”), in the definition of “Restricted Subsidiary” and the 2004 Second Supplemental Indenture amends the 2004 Indenture to substitute National for MBIA Corp. in the definition of “Principal Subsidiaries” (together, the “Amendments”).  The primary effect of the Amendments is to eliminate the risk that a rehabilitation or liquidation proceeding involving MBIA Corp. by the New York State Department of Financial Services would cause an event of default under the 1990 Indenture or the 2004 Indenture, as defined therein.

The foregoing descriptions of the 1990 Second Supplemental Indenture and the 2004 Second Supplemental Indenture are qualified in their entirety by the full texts of the 1990 Second Supplemental Indenture and the 2004 Second Supplemental Indenture, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1. and Exhibit 4.2, respectively.

Item 8.01.  OTHER EVENTS.

On November 26, 2012, the Company issued a press release announcing the successful completion of the previously announced consent solicitation to amend the 1990 Indenture and the 2004 Indenture as described above. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
