At the time the Exchange Agreement was entered into, AB and EQH exchanged 5,211,194 AB Holding Units for AB Units (thereby reducing the 10,000,000 AB Units available for future exchange to 4,788,806 AB Units), and the acquired AB Holding Units were retired.

At the time the Amended Exchange Agreement was entered into, AB and EQH exchanged 19,682,946 AB Holding Units for AB Units and the acquired AB Holding Units were retired.  For more information concerning EQH's holdings of AB Holding Units, see its separate Form 4 filing with respect to AB Holding Units.
