This Amendment No. 10 (this “Amendment”) further amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 8, 2008 and as amended by Amendment No. 1 on February 14, 2008, by Amendment No. 2 on March 9, 2009, by Amendment No. 3 on March 13, 2009, by Amendment No. 4 on December 10, 2009, by Amendment No. 5 on August 8, 2013, by Amendment No. 6 on February 2, 2015, by Amendment No. 7 on February 9, 2015, by Amendment No. 8, filed on May 19, 2015 and by Amendment No. 9, filed on May 22, 2015 (“Amendment No. 9”) (as amended, this “Schedule 13D”) and is being filed on behalf of Warburg Pincus Private Equity X, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and its affiliated partnership (“WP X”), Warburg Pincus X, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“WP X LP”) and the general partner of WP X, Warburg Pincus X GP L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“WP X GP”) and the general partner of WP X LP, WPP GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“WPP GP”) and the general partner of WP X GP, Warburg Pincus Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“WP Partners”) and the managing member of WPP GP, Warburg Pincus Partners GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“WPP GP LLC”) and the general partner of WP Partners, Warburg Pincus & Co., a New York general partnership (“WP”) and the managing member of WPP GP LLC, Warburg Pincus LLC, a New York limited liability company (“WP LLC”) that manages WP X, and Charles R. Kaye and Joseph P. Landy, each a Managing General Partner of WP and Managing Member and Co-Chief Executive Officer of WP LLC (each of the foregoing, a “Warburg Pincus Reporting Person” and collectively, the “Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons”). Messrs. Kaye and Landy may be deemed to control WP X, WP X LP, WP X GP, WPP GP, WP Partners, WPP GP LLC, WP and WP LLC. This Amendment relates to the common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Common Stock”), of MBIA Inc., a Connecticut corporation (“MBIA”). Unless otherwise indicated herein, each capitalized term used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Schedule 13D.

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction

Item 4 is hereby amended by adding the following at the end thereof:

On August 13, 2015, WP X sold 18,372,877 shares of Common Stock of MBIA in an arms-length transaction pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933. As a result of this transaction, the Warburg Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership of Common Stock of MBIA fell below five percent of the outstanding Common Stock of MBIA.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 is hereby amended by replacing it in its entirety with the following:

(a) WP X is the beneficial owner of the New Warrant, which is exercisable for a total of 1,910,417 shares of Common Stock of MBIA, representing approximately 1.1% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of MBIA (percentages in this, Item 5 are based on the 168,758,492 shares of MBIA Common Stock outstanding as of July 29, 2015, based on information included in MBIA’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2015, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, plus the 1,910,417 shares of Common Stock of MBIA for which warrants issued to WP X are exercisable and that are included in the amount beneficially owned by WP X above).

Due to their respective relationships with WP X and each other, each of the Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 1,910,417 shares of Common Stock of MBIA. Each of WP X LP, WP X GP, WPP GP, WP Partners, WPP GP LLC, WP, WP LLC, and Messrs. Kaye and Landy disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock of MBIA and the warrants in which WP X has beneficial ownership, except to the extent of any indirect pecuniary interest therein. Except as described in this Item 5(a), no person listed in Item 2 of this Statement is a beneficial owner of the Common Stock of MBIA or the warrants in which WP X has beneficial ownership.

(b) See Item 5(a) above.

(c) Other than as described in this Amendment, the Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in the Common Stock of MBIA since the filing of Amendment No. 9. The additional language added to Item 4 by this Amendment is incorporated herein by reference.

(d) Not applicable.

(e) The Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than five percent of MBIA’s Common Stock on August 13, 2015.
