Notice of Liquidation to Shareholders of
AB SICAV I – Asia Pacific Equity Income Portfolio (the “Portfolio”)
7 November 2016
Dear Shareholder,
We are writing to inform you that the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of AB SICAV I (the “Fund”) has determined to liquidate the Portfolio (the “Liquidation”) with effect on 8 December 2016 (the “Liquidation Date”). Due to the persistently small asset size of the Portfolio, the Board believes it is not cost-efficient and therefore not in the best interests of shareholders to continue to operate the Portfolio.
New subscriptions or exchanges into the Portfolio will not be permitted as of the date of this notice.
No action is required by you in order to partake in the Liquidation. Shareholders that do not exchange or redeem prior to the Liquidation Date will receive their net liquidation proceeds by wire transfer to the bank account specified in their AB funds shareholder account records. Shareholders that do not wish to partake in the Liquidation may, by the Liquidation Date, either redeem their shares or request the exchange of their shares in the Portfolio for the same share class of another AB-sponsored Luxembourg-domiciled UCITS fund authorized in their jurisdiction or otherwise available through an AB-authorized distributor in the country in which they reside.
Shareholders should note that while the Portfolio will not impose any fees on such transactions, distributors of the Portfolio may separately impose fees on such redemptions or exchanges. In addition, Shareholders should note that the Liquidation may have tax implications. If you have any concerns about your tax position, you should seek independent tax advice.
While expenses relating to Liquidation are generally borne by the Portfolio, such expenses are subject to the voluntary expense limits undertaken by AllianceBernstein (Luxembourg) S.à r.l, the management company of the Fund (the “Management Company”). Since the current expenses of the Portfolio are in excess of the voluntary expense limits applicable to the relevant share classes, the Management Company will bear all expenses associated with the Liquidation.
Due to the current market conditions and to maintain the necessary liquidity to meet anticipated redemption requests, the Portfolio may deviate from the investment strategy from the date of this notice.
The Board anticipates that the liquidation proceeds will be paid to the shareholders on or about 13 December 2016 or as soon as practicable thereafter.
Please note that if you are acting as a nominee for other investors in the Portfolio, you should inform the ultimate beneficial owners of the shares in the Portfolio of the information set forth in this notice as soon as possible.
How to get more information. If you have questions about the Liquidation, please contact your financial adviser or a client service analyst at an AB Investor Services service center:

The Board of Directors of
AB SICAV I
