Performance Disclosure
Alliance Capital Management L.P.
Alliance Capital Management L.P. ("Alliance Capital"), is a registered investment advisor. Alliance Capital had $454 billion in assets under management as of December 31, 2000. Performance figures in this report have been presented net of investment management fees. Net performance figures have been calculated by deducting the highest fee charged to an account in a composite, excluding accounts with performance based fee arrangements and balanced accounts which may be charged an equity fee rate. Net of fee performance figures reflect the compounding effect of such fees. The annual fees used: 1.00% for Small Cap Growth, 0.90% for Large Cap Growth, 0.75% for International Large Cap Growth, Research Managed, Japanese Equity and European Growth, and 0.29% for Enhanced Sector Rotation.
No representation is made that the performance of these investment accounts are indicative of future performance. Performance figures for each account are calculated monthly on a trade-date basis using an internal rate of return calculation. Monthly market values include income accruals and reflect the daily weighting of cash flows. The composite results are asset weighted on a monthly basis. Quarterly and annual composite performance figures are computed by linking monthly returns resulting in a time-weighted rate of return.
The Composites include discretionary tax-exempt accounts with assets over $10 million which are not subject to significant investment restrictions imposed by clients, except for the European Growth Composite which consists of one taxable account. The Composites are asset weighted and have been built according to AIMR Performance Presentation Standards. AIMR has not been involved with the preparation or review of this report. Alliance Capital received attestation from KPMG for Level 1 and 2 AIMR Verification for 1992, 1993, 1994, 1996, 1997 and 1998. We are currently reviewing 1999. This verification and other composites are available upon request.
Composites used for performance reporting purposes represent the following:

Performance Disclosure (con't)
Alliance Capital Management L.P.—Bernstein Investment Research & Management Unit
Prior to October 2, 2000, performance figures relating to the Bernstein value products were calculated by Sanford C. Bernstein & Co., Inc., and thereafter, by Alliance Capital Management L.P. through its Bernstein Investment Research and Management unit (the "Bernstein Unit"). The Bernstein Unit services the former investment management clients of Sanford C. Bernstein & Co., Inc., and has used the following standards of measurement in compiling its performance data:
1)Total Return—Performance results of accounts and comparisons are made on a total return basis which includes all dividends, interest and accrued interest, and realized and unrealized gains or losses. Securities are included in accounts on a trade date basis. Performance results are after deductions of all transaction charges and fees.
2)Rate of Return—Investment results are computed on a "time-weighted" rate of return basis. Assuming dividends and interest are reinvested, the growth in dollars of an investment in a period can be computed using these rates of return. In computing the "time-weighted rate of return", if an account's net monthly cash flow exceeds 10% of its beginning market value, the cash flows are weighted on a daily basis. When an account's net monthly cash flows are less than 10% of its beginning market value, the cash flows are weighted by the "end of the month" assumption.
3)Preparation of Data—Investment results on a quarterly basis for accounts in the cited category under the discretionary management of Bernstein's Investment Policy Group for the entire quarter were added together and the sum divided by the total number of accounts in each quarter through 1992; beginning in 1993 quarterly performance was for all accounts weighted by their market value. These quarterly performance figures were then linked to produce a continuous-performance index. The continuous-performance index from inception was used to create point-to-point comparisons. Closed accounts are included for each full quarter prior to their closing. Strategic Value returns include all Strategic Value accounts from 1974-1982 and, from 1983-1999, all Strategic Value accounts with $5 million or more in assets. Beginning January 1, 2000, results exclude accounts with a client-directed margin balance of 20% or more of market value at any month end. Strategic Value accounts exclude the following products: Diversified Value, Social Investing, Leveraged Hedge and Maximum Appreciation 1000 Accounts. From 1994-1999, returns for Diversified Value optimized against the S&P 500 Index exclude certain accounts with special restrictions imposed by clients. The minimum account sizes included in Diversified Value performance are: 1986: 3Q-1991: $5 million; thereafter: all accounts. Small-Cap Value Equity includes all accounts. Investment results for International Value Equity through June 1993 were those of a single, pooled, managed International Value account. From July 1993 quarterly results were those of GDP-weighted, half-hedged International Value accounts separately managed in US dollars. International Value returns exclude certain accounts with special restrictions imposed by clients.
4)Dispersion—Dispersion, or standard deviation, measures the variability of account returns within a composite. In a normal distribution, approximately two-thirds of the account returns will fall within the range of one standard deviation above and below the equal-weighted mean return. Beginning in 1993, performance is weighted by account size, therefore dispersion is calculated from the asset-weighted mean. Dispersion of performance for accounts under management were as follows: Strategic Value—1974: 29.1; 1975: 26.5; 1976: 17.6; 1977: 8.3; 1978: 11.5; 1979: 9.0; 1980: 8.7; 1981: 5.6; 1982: 5.5; 1983: 2.9; 1984: 1.6; 1985: 1.6; 1986: 1.1; 1987: 1.7; 1988: 1.7; 1989: 1.4; 1990: 1.2; 1991: 2.0; 1992: 1.4; 1993: 1.2; 1994: 1.2; 1995: 1.3; 1996: 1.3; 1997: 1.6; 1998: 2.5; 1999: 2.5; 2000: N/A.; Diversified Value: 1986: 3Q-4Q: 0.1; 1987: 0.2; 1988: 0.4; 1989: 0.4; 1990: 0.6; 1991: 0.4; 1992: 0.3; 1993: 0.9; 1994: 0.8; 1995: 0.8; 1996: 0.9; 1997: 1.1; 1998: 1.5; 1999: 1.3; 2000: N/A; Small-Cap Value Equity: 1991: 1.3; 1992: 1.3; 1993: 1.5; 1994: 1.6; 1995: 1.6; 1996: 1.2; 1997: 1.0; 1998: 1.8; 1999: 1.6; 2000: N/A; International Value (Half-Hedged): 1993: 2H: 0.6; 1994: 0.9; 1995: 1.5; 1996: 1.0; 1997: 1.1; 1998: 1.6; 1999: 1.8; 2000: N/A.
