The management of AllianceBerstein Trust is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls. Generally, controls that are relevant to an audit pertain to the entity's objective of preparing financial statements for external purposes that are fairly presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Those controls include the safeguarding of assets against unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition. Because of inherent limitations in internal control, error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of internal control to future periods is subject to the risk that it may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of the design and operation may deteriorate. Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters in internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. However, we noted no matters involving internal control and its operation, including controls for safeguarding securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above as of November 30, 2002. This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and the Board of Trustees of AllianceBerstein Trust and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. Ernst & Young LLP New York, New York January 20, 2003 EX-99 5 merger77m.txt MERGER 77M AllianceBernstein International Value Fund Exhibit 77M 811- 10221 77M Mergers At the Regular Meeting of the Board of Trustees of AllianceBernstein Trust International Value Fund ("ABT") held on January 24, 2002, the Trustees of ABT approved a form of Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Liquidation (the "Plan") between ABT and Alliance International Fund ("AIF") governing the proposed acquisition of the assets of AIF by ABT and authorized the officers of ABT to take certain other actions in connection therewith. In addition, the Trustees of ABT also authorized the issuance of shares of beneficial interest as contemplated in the Plan and also made certain other determinations pursuant to the requirements of Rule 17a-8 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("the Act"). Subsequently, at a Special Meeting of Shareholders of AIF held on August 6, 2002, the shareholders of AIF approved the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Liquidation providing for the transfer of all the assets and liabilities of AIF in exchange for shares of ABT, the distribution of such shares to shareholders of AIF and the subsequent dissolution of AIF.

As soon as practicable after the effective date of the N-14 Registration Statement, the Acquired Fund shall hold a shareholder meeting to consider and approve the Acquisition and this Plan, and such other matters as the Board of Trustees of the Acquired Fund may determine. Such approval by the shareholders of the Acquired Fund shall, to the extent necessary to permit the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein without violating any investment objective, policy or restriction of the Acquired Fund, be deemed to constitute approval by the shareholders of a temporary amendment of any investment objective, policy or restriction that would otherwise be inconsistent with or violated upon the consummation of such transactions solely for the purpose of consummating such transactions. 4. Transfer of the Acquired Fund's Assets. ABT Value and the Acquired Fund shall take the following steps with respect to the Acquisition, as applicable: (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Acquired Fund shall pay or provide for the payment of all of the Liabilities, expenses, costs and charges of or attributable to the Acquired Fund that are known to the Acquired Fund and that are due and payable prior to or as of the Closing Date. (b) Prior to the Effective Time, the Acquired Fund shall declare and pay to its shareholders on its normal monthly schedule a dividend and/or other distribution in an amount such that it will have distributed substantially all of its theretofore undistributed investment company taxable income, if any (as defined in Code section 852), and net capital gain, if any (as defined in Code section 1222). (c) Within a reasonable time prior to the Closing Date, the Acquired Fund shall provide, if requested, a list of the Assets to ABT Value. The Acquired Fund may sell any Asset on such list prior to the Effective Time. After the Acquired Fund provides such list, the Acquired Fund will not acquire any additional securities or permit to exist any encumbrances, rights, restrictions or claims not reflected on such list, without the approval of ABT Value. Within a reasonable time after receipt of the list and prior to the Closing Date, ABT Value will advise the Acquired Fund in writing of any investments shown on the list that ABT Value has determined to be inconsistent with its investment objective, policies and restrictions. The Acquired Fund will dispose of any such securities prior to the Closing Date to the extent practicable and consistent with applicable legal requirements, including the Acquired Fund's investment objectives, policies and restrictions. In addition, if ABT Value determines that, as a result of the Acquisition, ABT Value would own an aggregate amount of an investment that would exceed a percentage limitation applicable to ABT Value, ABT Value will advise the Acquired Fund in writing of any such limitation and the Acquired Fund shall dispose of a sufficient amount of such investment as may be necessary to avoid the limitation as of the Effective Time, to the extent practicable and consistent with applicable legal requirements, including the Acquired Fund's investment objectives, policies and restrictions. (d) The Acquired Fund shall assign, transfer, deliver and convey the Assets to ABT Value at the Effective Time on the following basis: (1) ABT Value shall simultaneously issue and deliver to the Acquired Fund that number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest of each class of ABT Value, rounded to the third decimal place or such other decimal place as the parties may agree to in writing, determined by dividing the value of the Assets less the Liabilities attributable to a class of the Acquired Fund by the net asset value per share of the corresponding class of ABT Value. (2) The net asset value of the shares of ABT Value to be delivered to the Acquired Fund shall be determined as of the Valuation Time in accordance with ABT Value's then applicable valuation procedures, and for this purpose, the net value of the Assets to be conveyed to ABT Value shall be determined as of the Valuation Time in accordance with the then applicable valuation procedures of ABT Value. (3) The Acquired Fund shall deliver the Assets with good and marketable title to the custodian for the account of ABT Value. All cash shall be transferred in the form of immediately available funds payable to the order of ABT Value's custodian. (e) Promptly after the Closing Date, the Acquired Fund will deliver to ABT Value a Statement of Assets and Liabilities of the Acquired Fund as of the Closing Date. 5. Liquidation and Dissolution of the Acquired Fund, Registration of Shares of ABT Value and Access to Records. The Acquired Fund and ABT Value also shall take the following steps, as applicable: (a) At or as soon as reasonably practical after the Effective Time, the Acquired Fund shall liquidate and dissolve by transferring to shareholders of record of each class of the Acquired Fund full and fractional shares of beneficial interest of the corresponding class of ABT Value equal in value to the shares of the class of the Acquired Fund held by the shareholder. Each shareholder also shall have the right to receive any unpaid dividends or other distributions that the Acquired Fund declared with respect to the class of the Acquired Fund's shares held by the shareholder before the Effective Time. ABT Value shall record on its books the ownership by the Acquired Fund's shareholders of ABT Value shares so transferred to such shareholders and the Acquired Fund shall simultaneously redeem and cancel on its books all of the issued and outstanding shares of each class of the Acquired Fund. ABT Value shall issue certificates representing ABT Value shares in accordance with the then current ABT Value prospectus; provided, however, that ABT Value shall not issue certificates representing ABT Value shares to replace certificates representing Acquired Fund shares unless the Acquired Fund share certificates are first surrendered to ABT Value. Following distribution by the Acquired Fund to its shareholders of all of the shares of ABT Value delivered to the Acquired Fund, the Acquired Fund shall wind up its affairs and shall take all steps as are necessary and proper to dissolve as soon as is reasonably possible after the Effective Time. (b) At and after the Closing Date, the Acquired Fund shall provide ABT Value and its transfer agent with immediate access to: (i) all records containing the names, addresses and taxpayer identification numbers of all of the Acquired Fund's shareholders and the number and percentage ownership of the outstanding shares of each class of the Acquired Fund owned by shareholders as of the Effective Time, and (ii) all original documentation (including all applicable Internal Revenue Service forms, certificates, certifications and correspondence) relating to the Acquired Fund shareholders' taxpayer identification numbers and their liability for or exemption from back-up withholding. The Acquired Fund shall preserve and maintain, or shall direct its service providers to preserve and maintain, records with respect to the Acquired Fund as required by Section 31 of, and Rules 31a-1 and 31a-2 under, the 1940 Act. 6.
