                                 INTRODUCTION

   This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of
proxies on behalf of the respective Boards of Directors (collectively, the
"Board") of AllianceBernstein Income Fund, Inc. ("ABIF"), AllianceBernstein
Global High Income Fund, Inc. ("AGHIF"), AllianceBernstein National Municipal
Income Fund, Inc. ("ANMIF"), Alliance California Municipal Income Fund, Inc.
("ACMIF") and Alliance New York Municipal Income Fund, Inc. ("ANYMIF"), each of
which is a Maryland corporation (each, a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"),
to be voted at a Joint Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Funds (the
"Meeting"), to be held at the offices of the Funds, 1345 Avenue of the

mailed to stockholders on or about February 21, 2013.

   Any stockholder who owned shares of ABIF, AGHIF, ANMIF, ACMIF and ANYMIF on
February 12, 2013 (the "Record Date") is entitled to notice of, and to vote at,
the Meeting and any postponement or adjournment thereof. Each share is entitled

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS FOR THE
STOCKHOLDERS' MEETING TO BE HELD ON WEDNESDAY, MARCH 27, 2013. THE PROXY
STATEMENT IS AVAILABLE ON THE INTERNET AT WWW.ALLIANCEBERNSTEIN.COM/
ABFUNDSPROXY.

                                      1



                                 PROPOSAL ONE
                             ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

   At the Meeting, three Directors of each Fund will be elected to serve for
terms of three years and, in each case, until his or her successor is elected
and qualifies. The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by a Fund's
stockholders is required to elect a Director. It is the intention of the
persons named in the enclosed proxy to nominate and vote in favor of the
election of each of the nominees.

   Under the Funds' respective Charters and Bylaws, the Board has been divided
into three classes. For all of the Funds, the terms of Class One Directors will
expire as of the Meeting, the terms of Class Two Directors will expire as of
the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2014 and the terms of Class
Three Directors will expire as of the annual meeting of stockholders to be held
in 2015. Upon expiration of the terms of the Directors of each class as set
forth above, the terms of their successors in that class will continue until
the end of their terms and until their successors are duly elected and qualify.

   Under this classified Board structure, only those Directors in a single
class are required to be elected at the annual meeting of stockholders. It
would require two years of annual meeting elections to change a majority of the
Board of Directors of a Fund, although Maryland law provides that stockholders
may remove Directors under certain circumstances, even if such Directors are
not then standing for re-election. This classified Board structure, which may
be regarded as an "anti-takeover" provision, may make it more difficult for a
Fund's stockholders to change the majority of Directors of the Fund and, thus,
have the effect of maintaining the continuity of management.

   At the Meeting, Michael J. Downey and Nancy P. Jacklin are standing for
election in Class One of each Fund; John H. Dobkin is standing for election in
Class One of ABIF, ACMIF, ANMIF and ANYMIF; and Robert M. Keith is standing for
election in Class One of AGHIF. Each nominee has consented to serve as a
Director. The Board knows of no reason why any of the nominees will be unable
to serve, but in the event any nominee is unable to serve, or for good cause
will not serve, the proxies received indicating a vote in favor of such nominee
will be voted for such substitute nominee as the Board may recommend.

   At the Meeting, the holders of each series of preferred stock of ANMIF,
ACMIF and ANYMIF (the "Preferred Stockholders") will have equal voting rights
with the holders of the common stock of ANMIF, ACMIF and ANYMIF (i.e., one vote
per share), respectively, and will vote together with the holders of the common
stock as a single class on proposals that may be properly presented at the
Meeting applicable to their respective Funds, as described below. In addition,
the Preferred Stockholders, voting separately as a class, have the right to
elect two Directors of their Fund ("Preferred Directors"). The Preferred
Directors are John H. Dobkin and Michael J. Downey and each is a member of
Class One of ANMIF, ACMIF and

                                      2



ANYMIF. Accordingly, such Preferred Stockholders will vote on the proposed
election of such Class One Directors at the Meeting.

   Certain information concerning the Funds' Directors and the nominees is set
forth below.

   The business and affairs of the Funds are managed under the direction of the
Board. Directors who are not "interested persons" of the Funds as defined in
the 1940 Act, are referred to as "Independent Directors," and the Director who
is an "interested person" of the Funds is referred to as an "Interested
Director." Certain information concerning each Director and the Funds'
governance structure is set forth below.

   Experience, Skills, Attributes and Qualifications of the Funds' Directors.
The Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board, which is composed of
Independent Directors, reviews the experience, qualifications, attributes and
skills of potential candidates for nomination or election by the Board, and
conducts a

                                      8



similar review in connection with the proposed nomination of current Directors
for re-election by stockholders at any annual or special meeting of
stockholders. In evaluating a candidate for nomination or election as a
Director, the Governance and Nominating Committee takes into account the
contribution that the candidate would be expected to make to the diverse mix of
experience, qualifications, attributes and skills that the Governance and
Nominating Committee believes contributes to good governance for the Fund.
Additional information concerning the Governance and Nominating Committee's
consideration of nominees appears in the description of the Committee below.

   The Board believes that, collectively, the Directors have balanced and
diverse experience, qualifications, attributes and skills, which allow the
Board to operate effectively in governing the Funds and protecting the
interests of stockholders. The Board has concluded that, based on each
Director's experience, qualifications, attributes and skills on an individual
basis and in combination with those of the other Directors, each Director is
qualified and should continue to serve as such.

   In determining that a particular Director was and continues to be qualified
to serve as a Director, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of
which, in isolation, was controlling. In addition, the Board has taken into
account the actual service and commitment of each Director during his or her
tenure (including the Director's commitment and participation in Board and
committee meetings, as well as his or her current and prior leadership of
standing and ad hoc committees) in concluding that each should continue to
serve as a Director. Additional information about the specific experience,
skills, attributes and qualifications of each Director, which in each case led
to the Board's conclusion that the Director should serve (or continue to serve)
as Director, is provided in the table above and in the next paragraph.

   Among other attributes and qualifications, common to all Directors are their
ability to review critically, evaluate, question and discuss information
provided to them (including information requested by the Directors); to
interact effectively with the Adviser, other service providers, counsel and the
Funds' independent registered public accounting firm, and to exercise effective
business judgment in the performance of their duties as Directors. In addition
to his or her service as a Director of the Funds and other AllianceBernstein
Funds as noted in the table above: Mr. Dobkin has experience as an executive of
a number of organizations and served as Chairman of the Audit Committee of many
of the AllianceBernstein Funds from 2001 to 2008; Mr. Downey has experience in
the investment advisory business including as Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer of a large fund complex and as director of a number of
non-AllianceBernstein funds and as Chairman of a non-AllianceBernstein
closed-end fund; Mr. Foulk has experience in the investment advisory and
securities businesses, including as Deputy Comptroller and Chief Investment
Officer of the State of New York (where his responsibilities included bond
issuances, cash management and oversight of the New York

                                      9



Common Retirement Fund), has served as Chairman of the AllianceBernstein Funds
and of the Independent Directors Committee since 2003, and is active in a
number of mutual fund related organizations and committees; Mr. Guzy has
experience as a corporate director, including as Chairman of a public company
and as Chairman of the Finance Committee of a large public technology company;
Ms. Jacklin has experience as a financial services regulator, including as U.S.
Executive Director of the International Monetary Fund, which is responsible for
ensuring the stability of the international monetary system, and as a financial
services lawyer in private practice; Mr. Keith has experience as an executive
of the Adviser, with responsibility for, among other things, the
AllianceBernstein Funds; Mr. Moody has experience as a certified public
accountant, including experience as Vice Chairman and U.S. and Global
Investment Management Practice Partner for a major accounting firm, is a member
of the governing council of an organization of independent directors of mutual
funds, and has served as Chairman of the Audit Committee of the
AllianceBernstein Funds since 2008; Mr. Turner has experience as a director
(including Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of a number of companies) and
as a venture capital investor, including serving as general partner of three
institutional venture capital partnerships; and Mr. Weiner has experience as a
securities lawyer whose practice includes representing registered investment
companies and as Chairman, director or trustee of a number of boards, and has
served as Chairman of the Governance and Nominating Committee of the
AllianceBernstein Funds since 2007. The disclosure herein of a Director's
experience, qualifications, attributes and skills does not impose on such
Director any duties, obligations, or liability that are greater than the
duties, obligations and liability imposed on such Director as a member of the
Board and any committee thereof in the absence of such experience,
qualifications, attributes and skills.

   Board Structure and Oversight Function. The Board is responsible for
oversight of the Funds. Each Fund has engaged the Adviser to manage the Fund on
a day-to-day basis. The Board is responsible for overseeing the Adviser and the
Funds' other service providers in the operations of each Fund in accordance
with its investment objective and policies, and otherwise in accordance with
the Fund's prospectus, the requirements of the 1940 Act and other applicable
Federal laws, applicable state laws and the Fund's charter and bylaws. The
Board meets in-person at regularly scheduled meetings 8 times throughout the
year. In addition, the Directors may meet in-person or by telephone at special
meetings or on an informal basis at other times. The Independent Directors also
regularly meet without the presence of any representatives of management. As
described below, the Board has established four standing committees - the Audit
Committee, the Governance and Nominating Committee, the Independent Directors
Committee and the Fair Value Pricing Committee - and may establish ad hoc
committees or working groups from time to time to assist the Board in
fulfilling its oversight responsibilities. Each committee is composed
exclusively of Independent Directors. The responsibilities of each committee,
including its oversight responsibilities, are described further

                                      10



below. The Independent Directors have also engaged independent legal counsel,
and may from time to time engage consultants and other advisors, to assist them
in performing their oversight responsibilities.

   An Independent Director serves as Chairman of the Board. The Chairman's
duties include setting the agenda for each Board meeting in consultation with
management, presiding at each Board meeting, meeting with management between
Board meetings and facilitating communication and coordination between the
Independent Directors and management. The Directors have determined that the
Board's leadership by an Independent Director and its committees composed
exclusively of Independent Directors is appropriate because they believe this
structure sets the proper tone for the relationships between the Funds, on the
one hand, and the Adviser and other service providers, on the other, and
facilitates the exercise of the Board's independent judgment in evaluating and
managing such relationships. In addition, each Fund is required to have an
Independent Director as Chairman pursuant to certain 2003 regulatory
settlements involving the Adviser.

   Risk Oversight. Each Fund is subject to a number of risks, including
investment, compliance and operational risks. Day-to-day risk management of the
Funds resides with the Adviser or other service providers (depending on the
nature of the risk), subject to supervision by the Adviser. The Board has
charged the Adviser and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or
circumstances, the occurrence of which could have demonstrable and material
adverse effects on the Funds; (ii) to the extent appropriate, reasonable or
practicable, implementing processes and controls reasonably designed to lessen
the possibility that such events or circumstances will occur or to mitigate the
effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating
and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously, and to revise as
appropriate, the processes and controls described in (i) and (ii) above.

   Risk oversight forms part of the Board's general oversight of the Funds'
investment programs and operations, and is addressed as part of various regular
Board and committee activities. Each Fund's investment management and business
affairs are carried out by or through the Adviser and other service providers.
Each of these persons has an independent interest in ensuring effective risk
management, but the policies and the methods by which one or more risk
management functions are carried out may differ from the Fund's and each
other's in the setting of priorities, resource availability and/or the
effectiveness of relevant controls. Oversight of risk management is provided by
the Board and the Audit Committee. The Directors regularly receive reports
from, among others, management (including the Global Heads of Investment Risk
and Trading Risk of the Adviser), each Fund's Senior Officer (who is also the
Fund's chief compliance officer), each Fund's independent registered public
accounting firm and counsel, and internal auditors for the Adviser, as
appropriate, regarding risks faced by the Funds and the Adviser's risk
management programs.

                                      11



   Not all risks that may affect the Funds can be identified, nor can controls
be developed to eliminate or mitigate their occurrence or effects. It may not
be practical or cost-effective to eliminate or mitigate certain risks,
processes and controls employed to address certain risks may be limited in
their effectiveness, and some risks are simply beyond the reasonable control of
the Funds or the Adviser, its affiliates or other service providers. Moreover,
it is necessary for the Funds to bear certain risks (such as investment-related
risks) to achieve the Funds' goals. As a result of the foregoing and other
factors, the Funds' ability to manage risk is subject to substantial
limitations.

   During each Fund's fiscal year ended 2012, the Board of ABIF met 9 times; of
AGHIF, 8 times; and of ANMIF, ACMIF and ANYMIF, 9 times. The Funds do not have
a policy that requires a Director to attend annual meetings of stockholders.

   Board Committees. The Board has four standing committees: the Audit
Committee, the Governance and Nominating Committee, the Independent Directors
Committee, and the Fair Value Pricing Committee. The members of the Committees
are identified above in the table listing the Directors.

   The function of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in its oversight
of each Fund's financial reporting process. The members of the Audit Committee
are "independent" as required by applicable listing standards of the New York
Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). During each Fund's fiscal year ended 2012, the Audit
Committee of ABIF met 3 times; of AGHIF, 4 times; of ANMIF, 3 times; of ACMIF,
3 times; and of ANYMIF, 3 times.

   The Board has adopted a charter for its Governance and Nominating Committee,
a current copy of which is available at www.alliancebernstein.com (click on
"AllianceBernstein Mutual Fund Investors" then "U.S." then "Explore Our
Products/Closed Ends" then the name of a Fund (e.g., "Alliance New York
Municipal Income Fund") then "Prospectus & Shareholder Resources" then
"Governance and Nominating Committee Charter"). Pursuant to the charter of the
Governance and Nominating Committee, the Committee assists the Board in
carrying out its responsibilities with respect to Fund governance and
identifies, evaluates and selects and nominates candidates for the Board. The
Committee may also set standards or qualifications for Directors and reviews at
least annually the performance of each Director, taking into account factors
such as attendance at meetings, adherence to Board policies, preparation for
and participation at meetings, commitment and contribution to the overall work
of the Board and its committees, and whether there are health or other reasons
that might affect the Director's ability to perform his or her duties. The
Committee may consider candidates as Directors submitted by a Fund's current
Board members, officers, the Adviser, stockholders (subject to the following
paragraph), and other appropriate sources.

   The Governance and Nominating Committee will consider candidates submitted
by a stockholder or group of stockholders who have beneficially owned at

                                      12



least 5% of a Fund's outstanding common stock for at least two years prior to
the time of submission and who timely provide specified information about the
candidates, and the nominating stockholder or group. To be timely for
consideration by the Committee, the submission, including all required
information, must be submitted in writing to the attention of the Secretary at
the principal executive offices of the Funds not less than 120 days before the
date of the proxy statement for the previous year's annual meeting of
stockholders. The Committee will consider only one candidate submitted by such
a stockholder or group of stockholders for nomination for election at an annual
meeting of stockholders. The Committee will not consider self-nominated
candidates.

   The Governance and Nominating Committee will consider and evaluate
candidates submitted by stockholders on the basis of the same criteria as those
used to consider and evaluate candidates submitted from other sources. These
criteria include the candidate's relevant knowledge, experience and expertise,
the candidate's ability to carry out his or her duties in the best interests of
the Funds, and the candidate's ability to qualify as an Independent Director.
When assessing a candidate for nomination, the Committee considers whether the
individual's background, skills, and experience will complement the background,
skills and experience of other nominees and will contribute to the diversity of
the Board. During each Fund's fiscal year ended 2012, the Governance and
Nominating Committee met 3 times.

   The function of the Independent Directors Committee is to consider and take
action on matters that the Committee or the Board believes should be addressed
in executive session of the Independent Directors, such as review and approval
of the Advisory and Shareholder Inquiry Agency Agreements. During each Fund's
fiscal year ended 2012, the Independent Directors Committee of ABIF met 8
times; of AGHIF, 7 times; and of ANMIF, ACMIF and ANYMIF, 7 times. The
Independent Directors meet in executive session without representation of
management present at every Board meeting. In the fiscal year ended 2012, the
approval of the Advisory and Shareholder Inquiry Agreements was considered at
two such executive sessions.

   The function of the Fair Value Pricing Committee is to consider, in advance
if possible, any fair valuation decision of the Adviser's Valuation Committee
relating to a security held by a Fund made under unique or highly unusual
circumstances not previously addressed by the Adviser's Valuation Committee

stockholder must send a written communication to the Fund's principal office at
the address listed in the Notice of Joint Annual Meeting of Stockholders
accompanying this Proxy Statement, addressed to the Board or the individual
Director. All stockholder

communications received in accordance with this process will be forwarded to
the Board or the individual Director to whom or to which the communication is
addressed.

   Board Compensation. None of the Funds pays any fees to, or reimburses

year 2012 by all of the investment companies overseen by the Director within
the AllianceBernstein Fund Complex; the total number of investment companies in
the AllianceBernstein Fund Complex for which each Director serves as a director
or trustee; and the number of investment portfolios for which each Director
serves as a director or trustee, is set forth below. Neither the Funds nor any
other investment company in the AllianceBernstein Fund Complex provides
compensation in the form of pension or retirement benefits to any of its
directors or trustees.

   THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE FOR EACH OF THE
NOMINEES TO SERVE AS A DIRECTOR OF THE APPLICABLE FUND. FOR EACH FUND, APPROVAL
OF PROPOSAL ONE REQUIRES THE AFFIRMATIVE VOTE OF A MAJORITY OF THE VOTES
ENTITLED TO BE CAST.

                     PROXY VOTING AND STOCKHOLDER MEETING

   All properly executed and timely received proxies will be voted at the
Meeting in accordance with the instructions marked thereon or as otherwise
provided therein. Accordingly, unless instructions to the contrary are marked
on the proxies, the votes will be cast for the election of the nominees as
Directors for each Fund. If no specification is made on a properly executed
proxy, it will be voted for the matters specified on the Proxy Card. Any
stockholder may revoke that stockholder's proxy at any time prior to exercise
thereof by (i) giving written notice to the Secretary of the Funds at 1345
Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10105, (ii) signing and delivering
to the Secretary another proxy of a later date, or (iii) voting in person at
the Meeting.

   Properly executed proxies may be returned with instructions to abstain from
voting or to withhold authority to vote (an "abstention"). For each Fund, the
approval of Proposal One requires an affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority of the votes entitled to be cast. An abstention will be considered
present for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum but will have the
effect of a vote against Proposal One. If any proposal, other than Proposal
One, properly comes

                                      15



before the Meeting, shares represented by proxies will be voted on all such
proposals in the discretion of the person or persons holding the proxies. The
Funds have not received notice of, and are not otherwise aware of, any other
matter to be presented at the Meeting.

   For each Fund, a quorum for the Meeting will consist of the presence in
person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the total outstanding shares
of common stock, and preferred stock, if any, of the Fund. In the event that
(i) a quorum is not present at the Meeting for a Fund; or (ii) a quorum is
present but sufficient votes in favor of the position recommended by the Board
for Proposal One (as described in the Proxy Statement) have not been timely
received, the Chairman of the Board may authorize, or the persons named as
proxies may propose and vote for, one or more adjournments of the Meeting up to
120 days after the Record Date for that Fund, with no other notice than an
announcement at the Meeting, in order to permit further solicitation of
proxies. Shares represented by proxies indicating a vote contrary to the
position recommended by the Board for Proposal One will be voted against
adjournment of the Meeting.

   The Meeting is scheduled as a joint meeting of the stockholders of the
Funds, because the stockholders of all the Funds are to consider and vote on
the election of Directors. Stockholders of each Fund will vote separately on
the election of Directors for that Fund and on any other matter that may
properly come before the Meeting for such Fund. An unfavorable vote by the
stockholders of one Fund will not affect the vote on the election of Directors
or on any other matter by the stockholders of another Fund. As described above,
Preferred Stockholders will have equal voting rights with the holders of the
common stock of ANMIF, ACMIF and ANYMIF, respectively, and will vote together
with the holders of the common stock as a single class on proposals that may be
properly presented at the Meeting applicable to their respective Funds. In
addition, the Preferred Stockholders, voting separately as a class, have the
right to elect two Preferred Directors.

   Each Fund has engaged Boston Financial Data Services ("BFDS"), 30 Dan Road -
Second Floor, Canton, MA 02021, to assist in soliciting proxies for the
Meeting. BFDS will receive a total fee of approximately $2,500 for its
services, to be divided equally among the Funds ($500 per Fund).

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT
----------------------

   The following Audit Committee Report was adopted by the Audit Committee for
each Fund.

   The Audit Committee operates pursuant to a written charter, a copy of which
may be found on the Adviser's website at www.alliancebernstein.com (click on
"AllianceBernstein Mutual Fund Investors," then "U.S." then "Products &
Performance/Closed-End Funds" then the name of a Fund (e.g., "Alliance New York
Municipal Income Fund") then "Prospectus & Shareholder Resources" then
"Closed-End Funds Audit Committee Charter"). The purposes of the Audit
Committee are to (1) assist the Board in its oversight of the accounting and
financial reporting policies and practices of the Fund, including (i) the
quality and integrity of the Fund's financial statements and the independent
audit thereof; (ii) the Fund's compliance with legal and regulatory
requirements, particularly those that relate to the Fund's accounting,
financial reporting, internal controls over financial reporting, and
independent audits; (iii) the retention, independence, qualifications and
performance of the independent registered public accounting firm; (iv) meeting
with representatives of the internal audit department of the Adviser regarding
such department's activities relating to the Fund; and (v) the Fund's
compliance with applicable laws by receiving reports from counsel who believe
there is credible evidence of a material violation of law by the Fund or by
someone owing a fiduciary or other duty to the Fund; and (2) to prepare this
report. As set forth in the Audit Committee Charter, management of the Fund is
responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of the Fund's
financial statements, the Fund's accounting and financial reporting principles
and internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with
accounting standards and applicable laws and

                                      19



regulations. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible
for auditing the Fund's financial statements and expressing an opinion as to
their conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

   In the performance of its oversight function, the Audit Committee has
considered and discussed the audited financial statements with management and
the independent registered public accounting firm of the Fund. The Audit
Committee has also discussed with the independent registered public accounting
firm the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards
No. 114, Auditors Communication with those Charged with Governance, and other
professional standards, as currently in effect. The Audit Committee has also
considered whether the provision of any non-audit services not pre-approved by
the Audit Committee provided by the Fund's independent registered public
accounting firm to the Adviser and to any entity controlling, controlled by or
under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the
Fund is compatible with maintaining the independent registered public
accounting firm's independence. Finally, the Audit Committee has received the
written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public
accounting firm required by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Rule
3526, Communications with Audit Committees Concerning Independence, as
currently in effect, and has discussed the independent registered public
accounting firm's independence with such firm.

   The members of the Fund's Audit Committee are not full-time employees of the
Fund and are not performing the functions of auditors or accountants. As such,
it is not the duty or responsibility of the Audit Committee or its members to
conduct "field work" or other types of auditing or accounting reviews or
procedures or to set auditor independence standards. Members of the Audit
Committee necessarily rely on the information provided to them by management
and the independent registered public accounting firm. Accordingly, the Audit
Committee's considerations and discussions referred to above do not assure that
the audit of the Fund's financial statements has been carried out in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards, that the financial statements are
presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles or
that the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm is in fact
"independent".

   Based upon the reports and discussions described in this report, and subject
to the limitations on the role and responsibilities of the Audit Committee
referred to above and in the Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee
recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements of the Fund be
included in the Fund's annual report to stockholders for the most recent fiscal
year.

   Submitted by the Audit Committee of each Fund's Board of Directors:

 John H. Dobkin                         Nancy P. Jacklin
 Michael J. Downey                      Garry L. Moody
 William H. Foulk, Jr.                  Marshall C. Turner, Jr.
 D. James Guzy                          Earl D. Weiner

APPROVAL OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRMS BY THE BOARD
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

   The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation,
retention and oversight of the work of the Funds' independent registered public
accounting firm. In addition, on the dates specified below, the Board approved
the selection of the Funds' independent registered public accounting firm as
required by, and in accordance with the 1940 Act. At meetings held on
January 31 - February 2, 2012 (AGHIF) and November 6-8, 2012 (ABIF, ANMIF,
ACMIF and ANYMIF), the Board approved by the vote, cast in person, of a
majority of the Directors of each Fund, including a majority of the Directors
who are not "interested persons" of each Fund, the selection of Ernst & Young
LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit, regarding
each Fund, the accounts for the fiscal year ending, as applicable, March 31,
2013 (AGHIF); October 31, 2013 (ANMIF, ACMIF and ANYMIF) and December 31, 2013
(ABIF).

   Ernst & Young LLP has audited the accounts of ABIF, AGHIF, ANMIF, ACMIF and
ANYMIF since the respective dates of the commencement of each of the Fund's
operations, and has represented that it does not have any direct financial
interest or any material indirect financial interest in any of the Funds.
Representatives of Ernst & Young LLP are expected to attend the Meeting, to
have the opportunity to make a statement and to respond to appropriate
questions from the stockholders.

registered public accounting firm for each Fund's last two fiscal years for

performance of the audit of the Fund's financial statements and are not

period.

--------
*  The fees vary because they are presented based on each Fund's last two
   fiscal years and reflect fees for non-audit services for different periods.

   Beginning with audit and non-audit service contracts entered into on or
after May 6, 2003, the Funds' Audit Committee policies and procedures require
the pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services provided to a Fund by the
Fund's independent registered public accounting firm. A Fund's Audit Committee
policies and procedures also require pre-approval of all audit and non-audit
services provided to the Adviser and any Service Affiliates to the extent that
these services are directly related to the operations or financial reporting of
the Fund. Accordingly, all of the amounts in the table for Audit Fees,
Audit-Related Fees and Tax Fees for 2012 are for services pre-approved by each
Fund's Audit Committee. The amounts of the Fees for Non-Audit Services provided
to the Fund, the Adviser and Service Affiliates in the table for each Fund that
were subject to pre-approval by the Audit Committee for 2012 were ABIF, $38,076
(comprising $10,326 of audit related fees and $27,750 of tax fees); AGHIF,
$25,891 (comprising $8,000 of audit related fees and $17,891 of tax fees);
ANMIF, $21,293 (comprising $8,326 of audit related fees and $12,967 of tax
fees); ACMIF, $21,293 (comprising $8,326 of audit related fees and $12,967 of
tax fees); and ANYMIF, $21,293 (comprising $8,326 of audit related fees and
$12,967 of tax fees). The Audit Committee has considered whether the provision,
to the Adviser and/or any Service Affiliate by the Funds' independent
registered public accounting firm, of any non-audit services that were not
pre-approved by the Audit Committee is compatible with maintaining the
independent registered public accounting firm's independence.
