         This Amendment No. 2 (the "Amendment") amends and supplements the
Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") on September 8, 2000, as amended on September 19,
2000 (the "Schedule TO"), by Diamond Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation
("Purchaser") and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Credit Suisse Group, a
corporation organized under the laws of Switzerland ("CSG"). The Schedule TO
relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all outstanding shares of common
stock of the series designated Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette, Inc.-DLJ Common
Stock, par value $.10 per share (the "Shares"), of Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), at a purchase price of $90.00 per
Share, net to the seller in cash, upon the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated September 8, 2000 (the "Offer to
Purchase") and in the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with the
Offer to Purchase and any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively
constitute the "Offer"). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein
shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase or in
the Schedule TO.

Item 4.  Terms of the Transaction

         Item 4 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented to include
the following information:

         On September 29, 2000, the shareholders of CSG approved the CSG
Shareholder Proposal by the requisite vote.

         On October 6, 2000, CSG issued a press release announcing the extension
of the Offer to 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on October 11, 2000. The
Offer had previously been scheduled to expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City
time, on October 5, 2000. A copy of the press release with respect to the
foregoing is filed herewith as Exhibit (a)(14) and is incorporated herein by
reference.

Item 7.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

         Item 7 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented to include
         the following information :

         9.  Financing of the Offer and the Merger.

         This section on page 20 is amended and restated as follows:

                  "The Offer is not conditioned upon CSG or Purchaser obtaining
         financing. The total amount of funds required by Purchaser to
         consummate the Offer and the Merger (excluding the purchase of Shares
         from the AXA Entities pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement and
         excluding the purchase of Shares which may become subject to the Offer
         as a result of the exercise of options after October 3, 2000 and prior
         to the Expiration Date) and to pay related fees and expenses is
         estimated to be approximately $4.5 billion plus legal and printing
         expenses and expenses of the Information Agent, Depositary and certain
         other expenses. Purchaser will obtain all necessary funds from CSG or
         certain of CSG's subsidiaries. CSG completed, on October 5, 2000, six
         separate euromarket offerings of debt securities issued by Credit
         Suisse Group Finance (U.S.) Inc., a direct wholly owned subsidiary of
         CSG, and guaranteed by CSG. The securities sold

<PAGE>
         included senior and subordinated debt securities (the subordinated
         securities being guaranteed by CSG on a subordinated basis), at fixed
         and floating rates of interest, denominated in U.S. dollars, euro and
         sterling. The aggregate net proceeds from these completed offerings
         totaled approximately $3.89 billion. Copies of the terms and conditions
         of each of these issues of debt securities are filed herewith as
         Exhibits (b)(1), (b)(2), (b)(3), (b)(4), (b)(5) and (b)(6) and are
         incorporated herein by reference.

                  In addition, substantially all of the remaining funds
         necessary to consummate the Offer and the Merger (excluding the
         purchase of Shares from the AXA Entities pursuant to the Stock Purchase
         Agreement) will be raised through issuances of commercial paper by
         Credit Suisse First Boston, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary
         of CSG."

Item 11.  Additional Information

         Item 11 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented to
include the following information:

                  In addition to the three litigations described in the Offer to
         Purchase, five additional putative class actions regarding the
         transaction were filed after the Transaction was announced. The
         defendants in these actions are one or more of Donaldson, Lufkin &
         Jenrette, Inc., the AXA Entities, Credit Suisse Group, and/or their
         respective directors. The plaintiffs are owners of DLJdirect Common
         Stock or AXA stock. The complaints allege, among other things, breach
         of fiduciary duty. The plaintiffs seek, among other things, class
         certification, enjoining of the transaction, damages, and attorneys'
         fees and costs. Three of these additional actions were filed in the
         Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware in and for New Castle
         County. One of these additional actions was filed in the Supreme Court
         of the State of New York, in New York County, and the other was filed
         in the United States District Court, in the Southern District of New
         York.
