Sanford C. Bernstein Fund, Inc.Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Sanford C. Bernstein Fund, Inc.

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities included inthe accompanying Annual Report, including the schedules of investments con-tained herein, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assetsand the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financialposition of Short Duration Diversified Municipal Portfolio, Short Duration Cal-ifornia Municipal Portfolio, Short Duration New York Municipal Portfolio,Diversified Municipal Portfolio, California Municipal Portfolio, and New YorkMunicipal Portfolio (six of the eighteen portfolios constituting Sanford C. Bern-stein Fund, Inc., hereafter referred to as the “Fund”) at September 30, 2012, theresults of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each oftheir net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financialhighlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity withaccounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Thesefinancial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financialstatements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management; our responsibility isto express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We con-ducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards ofthe Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those stan-dards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assuranceabout whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An auditincludes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and dis-closures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used andsignificant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financialstatement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmationof securities at September 30, 2012 by correspondence with the custodian andbrokers, and the application of alternative auditing procedures where securitiespurchased confirmations had not been received, provide a reasonable basis for ouropinion.
