Alliance Capital Management Holding L.P. Alliance Premier Growth Fund Summary: According to the Company’s FORM 10-K For the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2005, on December 13, 2002, a putative class action complaint entitled Patrick J. Goggins, et al. v. Alliance Capital Management L.P., et al. (“Goggins Complaint”) was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against AllianceBernstein, Large Cap Growth Fund and individual directors and certain officers of Large Cap Growth Fund. On August 13, 2003, the court granted AllianceBernstein’s motion to transfer the Goggins Complaint to the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey. On December 5, 2003, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint (“Amended Goggins Complaint”) in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, which alleges that defendants violated Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act because Large Cap Growth Fund’s registration statements and prospectuses contained untrue statements of material fact and omitted material facts. More specifically, the Amended Goggins Complaint alleges that Large Cap Growth Fund’s investment in Enron was inconsistent with the Large Cap Growth Fund’s stated strategic objectives and investment strategies. Plaintiffs seek rescissionary relief or an unspecified amount of compensatory damages on behalf of a class of persons who purchased shares of Large Cap Growth Fund during the period October 31, 2000 through February 14, 2002. On January 23, 2004, AllianceBernstein moved to dismiss the Amended Goggins Complaint. On December 10, 2004, the court granted AllianceBernstein’s motion and dismissed the case. On January 5, 2005, plaintiffs appealed the court’s decision. On January 13, 2006, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit affirmed the dismissal. Plaintiffs’ time to seek further review of the court’s decision expires on April 13, 2006.
The original Complaint alleges that defendants violated the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, because the Fund’s registration statements and prospectuses allegedly were materially misleading, contained untrue statements of material fact and omitted material facts in describing the strategic objectives and investment strategies of the Fund in relation to the Fund’s investments, including the Fund’s investments in Enron Corp. securities.
