Notes on Global Equity Blend Simulation The Global Equity Blend Simulation results were calculated by value-weighting the actual composite returns of Alliance Global Research Growth and actual composite returns of Bernstein Global Value, starting at a 50/50 percentage ratio. Both the Global Value and the Global Research Growth portions were then allowed to compound until either portion made up more than 55% of the combined total. At this point, the portions were rebalanced so that the larger part represented 52. 5% of the combined total, and the smaller portion represented 47. 5%. Upon rebalancing, transaction costs of 75 basis points were applied to the rebalanced portions of the portfolio and this total transaction cost was deducted from the total return. Simulated results do not represent actual trading using client assets but (i) were achieved by means of the retroactive application of a model designed with the benefit of hindsight; and (ii) do not reflect the impact that material economic factors may have had on our decision-making. Simulation statistics may not be indicative of future results; there is always the potential for loss as well as for profit. Alliance. Bernstein Blend Strategies 23

Index Descriptions and Disclosure The MSCI World Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure global developed market equity performance. As of April 2002, the MSCI World Index consisted of the following 23 developed market country indices: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States. The MSCI Value and Growth Indices cover the full range of developed, emerging and All Country MSCI Equity Indices. As of the close of May 30, 2003, MSCI implemented an enhanced methodology for the MSCI Global Value and Growth Indices, adopting a two dimensional framework for style segmentation in which value and growth securities are categorized using different attributes - three for value and five for growth including forward looking variables. The objective of the index design is to divide constituents of an underlying MSCI Standard Country Index into a value index and a growth index, each targeting 50% of the free float adjusted market capitalization of the underlying country index. Country Value/Growth indices are then aggregated into regional Value/Growth indices. Prior to May 30, 2003, the indices used Price/Book Value (P/BV) ratios to divide the standard MSCI country indices into value and growth indices. All securities were classified as either "value" securities (low P/BV securities) or "growth" securities (high P/BV securities), relative to each MSCI country index. The S&P/Citigroup Primary Market Index (PMI) and Extended Market Index (EMI) divide the Broad Market Indexes (BMI) by relative-size on a country-by-country basis. The PMI/EMI split is determined by first ranking all BMI companies by total capitalization. Starting at the top of the list each constituent's available capitalization (float) is incrementally added. The top 80% of each country's available capital becomes the PMI, and the remaining 20% represents the EMI. All eligible issues of a company are added to the Index during the Index reconstitution, if their combined available market capitalisation equals or exceeds US$100 million, and are then assigned to either the PMI or the EMI. Stocks with an available market capitalization below US$75 million as of the Index reconstitution are deleted from the BMI. The S&P/Citigroup PMI Growth and Value Indices use three growth and four value variables to classify companies as either growth, value, or a combination of both. Cluster analysis is used and growth and value scores are calculated to show the relative magnitude of a stock's growth and value characteristics using equally weighted variables. High growth, low value stocks are classified as pure growth; high value, low growth as pure value. The remaining stocks' available market value is allocated to each of the indices according to its growth and value probability weights. The weights are then adjusted so that the constituents of each style index comprise approximately 50% of the float capital of the annually reconstituted PMI and EMI index within each country and region.
