Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) This Form 4 is filed on behalf of Warburg Pincus Private Equity X, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("WP X"), Warburg Pincus X Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("WP X Partners" and, together with WP X, the "WP X Funds"), Warburg Pincus X, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and the sole general partner of each of the WP X Funds ("WP X LP"), Warburg Pincus X LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the sole general partner of WP X LP ("WP X LLC"), Warburg Pincus Partners LLC, a New York limited liability company and the sole member of WP X LLC ("WPP LLC"), Warburg Pincus & Co., a New York general partnership and the managing member of WPP LLC ("WP"), Warburg Pincus LLC, a New York limited liability company that manages each of the WP X Funds ("WP LLC"), and
(2) (Continuation from footnote 1) Charles R. Kaye and Joseph P. Landy, each a Managing General Partner of WP and a Co-President and Managing Member of WP LLC. Messrs. Kaye and Landy may be deemed to control the WP X Funds, WP X LP, WP X LLC, WPP LLC, WP and WP LLC. Each of the WP X Funds, WP X LP, WP X LLC, WPP LLC, WP, WP LLC, and Messrs. Charles R. Kaye and Joseph P. Landy is a "Warburg Pincus Reporting Person" and collectively, the "Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons."
(3) Pursuant to Rule 16a-1(a)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, each of the Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons, other than the WP X Funds, may be deemed to have an indirect pecuniary interest in an indeterminate portion of the Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share ("Common Stock") of MBIA, Inc. (the "Issuer"), that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the WP X Funds. Each Warburg Pincus Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of all of the Common Stock of the Issuer that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the WP X Funds, except to the extent of any indirect pecuniary interest therein.
(4) The 73,452,685 shares beneficially owned includes shares of Common Stock as well as shares of Common Stock underlying the warrants exercisable for Common Stock reported in Table II.
(5) On August 5, 2013, the Issuer issued a warrant (the "New Warrant") to WP X pursuant to the Investment and Settlement Agreement and Waiver and Release, dated August 5, 2013 (the "Agreement"), between WP X, the Issuer and, solely for purposes of Section 1.3 of the Agreement, WP X Partners. The total purchase price for the New Warrant of $8,386,730.63 was reduced by a cash settlement payment of $1,124,212.81 owed by the Issuer to WP X pursuant to the Agreement. The net consideration of $7,262,517.82 was paid by surrendering to the Issuer 536,375 shares of Issuer's Common Stock owned by certain Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons based on a per share valuation of $13.54. The New Warrant is subject to adjustments for certain issuances of common stock, stock splits, stock subdivisions, stock reclassifications, stock combinations, other distributions, business combinations and similar actions.
(6) Issuer's issuance of a warrant to Blue Ridge Investments, L.L.C. on May 6, 2013 under the settlement agreement with Bank of America Corporation triggered certain anti-dilution adjustments under terms of WP X's (1) Warrant, dated as of January 30, 2008, originally exercisable for 8,698,920 shares of Common Stock at an original exercise price of $40.00 per share (the "Warrant"), (2) B-Warrant, dated as of January 30, 2008, originally exercisable for 7,430,112 shares of Common Stock at an original exercise price of $40.00 per share (the "B-Warrant"), (3) B2-Warrant, dated as of February 6, 2008, originally exercisable for 3,870,000 shares of Common Stock at an original exercise price of $16.20 per share ("B2-Warrant 1"), and (4) B2-Warrant, dated as of February 6, 2008, originally exercisable for 130,000 shares of Common Stock at an original exercise price of $16.20 per share ("B2-Warrant 2" and, together with the Warrant, the B-Warrant and the B-2 Warrant 1, the "Original Warrants").
(7) (Continuation from footnote 6) Each Original Warrant is subject to adjustments for certain issuances of common stock, stock splits, stock subdivisions, stock reclassifications, stock combinations, other distributions, certain repurchases, business combinations and similar actions. These anti-dilution adjustments are being voluntarily reported; no transaction has taken place with respect to the Original Warrants. As a result of the anti-dilution adjustments, (a) the Warrant is now exercisable for 11,819,185 shares at an exercise price of $29.44 per share, (b) the B-Warrant is now exercisable for 10,095,261 shares at an exercise price of $29.44 per share, (c) the B2-Warrant 1 is now exercisable for 3,874,784 shares at an exercise price of $16.18 per share, and (d) the B2-Warrant 2 is now exercisable for 130,161 shares at an exercise price of $16.18 per share. Each of the Original Warrants is currently exercisable.
(8) Information with respect to each of the Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons is given solely by such Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons, and no Warburg Pincus Reporting Person has responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of information supplied by another Warburg Pincus Reporting Person.
