         AMENDMENT made this 4th day of June, 1996 between
ALLIANCE INCOME BUILDER FUND, INC., a Maryland corporation
(the "Fund"), and ALLIANCE FUND DISTRIBUTORS INC., a
Delaware corporation (the "Underwriter").

                        WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Fund and the Underwriter wish to amend
the Distribution Services Agreement dated as of April 30,
1993, as amended and restated as of October 1, 1994 (the
"Agreement") in the manner set forth herein;

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

         1.   Amendment of Agreement.  Section 1 and the
first full paragraph of Section 4(a) of the Agreement are
hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

              Section 1.  Appointment of Underwriter.  "The
         Fund hereby appoints the Underwriter as the
         principal underwriter and distributor of the Fund
         to sell the public shares of its Class A Common
         Stock (the "Class A shares"), Class B Common Stock
         (the "Class B shares"), Class C Common Stock (the
         "Class C shares"), Advisor Class Common Stock (the
         "Advisor Class shares"), and shares of such other
         class or classes as the Fund and the Underwriter
         shall from time to time mutually agree shall become
         subject to the Agreement ("New shares"), (the
         Class A shares, Class B shares, Class C shares,
         Advisor Class shares, and New shares shall be
         collectively referred to herein as the "shares")
         and hereby agrees during the term of this Agreement
         to sell shares to the Underwriter upon the terms
         and conditions set forth herein."

              Section 4(a).  "Any of the outstanding shares
         may be tendered for redemption at any time, and the
         Fund agrees to redeem or repurchase the shares so
         tendered in accordance with its obligations as set
         forth in Article FIFTH of its Articles of
         Incorporation and in accordance with the applicable
         provisions set forth in the Prospectus and
         Statement of Additional Information.  The price to
         be paid to redeem or repurchase the shares shall be
         equal to the net asset value calculated in





         accordance with the provisions of Section 3(d)
         hereof, less any applicable sales charge.  All
         payments by the Fund hereunder shall be made in the
         manner set forth below.  The redemption or
         repurchase by the Fund of any of the Class A shares
         purchased by or through the Underwriter will not
         affect the initial sales charge secured by the
         Underwriter or any selected dealer or compensation
         paid to any selected agent (unless such selected
         dealer or selected agent has otherwise agreed with
         the Underwriter), in the course of the original
         sale, regardless of the length of the time period
         between the purchase by an investor and his
         tendering for redemption or repurchase."

         2.   Class References.  Any and all references in
the Agreement to Class Y shares are hereby amended to read
Advisor Class shares.

         3.   No Other Changes.  Except as provided herein,
the Agreement shall be unaffected hereby.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have
executed this Amendment to the Agreement.
