Alliance Capital Management L.P. ("Partnership") has entered into
an agreement to acquire the business of Cursitor-Eaton Asset Manage-
ment Company and Cursitor Holdings Limited (collectively, "Cursitor"),
for an aggregate value of $141.5 million consisting of 1,764,115 Units
and cash, part of which cash will be payable over the next four years,
and substantial additional consideration which will be determined at a
later date.
Cursitor, an international investment management firm with
offices in London, Paris and Boston, manages approximately $10 billion
in assets for both U.S. and non-U.S. institutions, mainly pension
plans. Cursitor's investment style is global asset allocation:
investing client funds in stocks or bonds of the world's principal
capital markets. The acquisition of Cursitor will result in the
formation of a new subsidiary of the Partnership which will be called
Cursitor Alliance LLC. It will combine Cursitor's global asset
allocation services with the Partnership's international and global
equity management, which is characterized by a stock selection philos-
ophy, and with the Partnership's Dimensional Asset Management subsid-
iary, a manager of global small-capitalization index funds. Senior
management of Cursitor will retain a minority interest in Cursitor
Alliance.
The transaction is subject to the receipt of consents, regulatory
approvals and certain other closing conditions, including client
approval of the transfer of Cursitor accounts.
