Dear Shareholder:

I am writing to ask for your vote at the adjourned session of the Joint Meeting of Shareholders (“Meeting”) of the Funds scheduled for March 12, 2019. The purpose of the Meeting is to consider and vote upon the approval of new investment advisory agreements for each Fund with AllianceBernstein L.P. (the “Adviser”). The approval of new advisory agreements is required as a result of certain anticipated changes to the indirect ownership of the Adviser, in connection with a plan by AXA S.A. to divest over time its remaining ownership interest in AXA Equitable Holdings, Inc. The material terms of the proposed new investment advisory agreements are identical to the material terms of the current investment advisory agreements.

Please take a minute to cast your vote. Each Board of Directors/Trustees recommends that you vote “FOR” the proposal.

Your vote “FOR” the proposal will help ensure the approval of the new investment advisory agreements and that existing investment advisory services can continue uninterrupted.

Once you have decided how you will vote, please promptly complete, sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card or vote by telephone or internet. Voting is quick and easy. Please vote as soon as possible to save the expense of additional solicitations.

Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”), our proxy solicitation firm, has been selected to assist shareholders in the proxy solicitation process. If we have not received your proxy authorization as the date of the Meeting approaches, you may receive a telephone call from Broadridge reminding you to authorize the proxy holders to cast your votes. If you have any questions about the proposal or the voting instructions, please call Broadridge toll free at (844) 670-2143.

Please vote as soon as possible to avoid additional contact from our proxy solicitation firm.

Sincerely,

/s/ Robert M. Keith
