exceeds the sum or value of $75,000, exclusive of interest and costs, and is between—
(1) citizens of different States;
(2) citizens of a State and citizens or subjects of a foreign state, except that the district courts shall
not have original jurisdiction under this subsection of an action between citizens of a State and

(3) citizens of different States and in which citizens or subjects of a foreign state are additional
parties; and

plaintiff who files the case originally in the Federal courts is finally adjudged to be entitled to recover less
than the sum or value of $75,000, computed without regard to any setoff or counterclaim to which the

whether incorporated or unincorporated, to which action the insured is not joined as a party-
defendant, such insurer shall be deemed a citizen of—
