CERTAIN UNITED STATES TAX CONSEQUENCES TO NON-UNITED STATES HOLDERS

The following is a general discussion of certain United States federal
income and estate tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of common
stock by a person that is not a "United States person" for United States
federal income tax purposes (a "non-U.S. holder"). For this purpose, a "United
States person" is a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation,
partnership or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the
United States or any political subdivision thereof, an estate the income of
which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its
source or a trust if (1) a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision
over the trust's administration and (2) one or more United States persons have
the authority to control all of the trust's substantial decisions. The
discussion does not consider specific facts and circumstances that may be
relevant to a particular non-U.S. holder's tax position. Accordingly, each
non-U.S. holder is urged to consult its own tax advisor with respect to the
United States tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the shares
of common stock, as well as any tax consequences that may arise under the laws
of any state, municipality, foreign country or other taxing jurisdiction.

Dividends

Dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder of common stock ordinarily will be
subject to withholding of United States federal income tax at a 30 percent
rate, or at a lower rate under an applicable income tax treaty that provides
for a reduced rate of withholding. However, if the dividends are effectively
connected with the conduct by the holder of a trade or business within the
United States, then the dividends will be exempt from the withholding tax
described above and instead will be subject to United States federal income tax
on a net income basis.

Gain on Disposition of Common Stock

A non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to United States federal
income tax in respect of gain realized on a disposition of common stock,
provided that (1) the gain is not effectively connected with a trade or
business conducted by the non-U.S. holder in the United States and (2) in the
case of a non-U.S. holder who is an individual and who holds the common stock
as a capital asset, such holder is present in the United States for less than
183 days in the taxable year of the sale and other conditions are met.

Federal Estate Taxes

Common stock owned or treated as being owned by a non-U.S. holder at the
time of death will be included in such holder's gross estate for United States
federal estate tax purposes, unless an applicable estate tax treaty provides
otherwise.

U.S. Information Reporting Requirements and Backup Withholding Tax

U.S. information reporting requirements and backup withholding tax will not
apply to dividends paid on common stock to a non-U.S. holder, provided the
non-U.S. holder provides a Form W-8BEN (or satisfies certain documentary
evidence requirements for establishing that it is a non-United States person)
or otherwise establishes an exemption. Information reporting and backup
withholding also generally will not apply to a payment of the proceeds of a
sale of common stock effected outside the United States by a foreign office of
a foreign broker. However, information reporting requirements (but not backup
withholding) will apply to a payment of the proceeds of a sale of common stock
effected outside the United States by a foreign office of a broker if the
broker (1) is a United States person, (2) derives 50 percent or more of its
gross income for certain periods from the conduct of a trade or business in the
United States, (3) is a "controlled foreign corporation" as to the United
States, or (4) is

S-10

a foreign partnership that, at any time during its taxable year is 50 percent
or more (by income or capital interest) owned by United States persons or is
engaged in the conduct of a U.S. trade or business, unless in any such case the
broker has documentary evidence in its records that the holder is a non-U.S.
holder and certain conditions are met, or the holder otherwise establishes an
exemption. Payment by a United States office of a broker of the proceeds of a
sale of common stock will be subject to both backup withholding and information
reporting unless the holder certifies its non-United States status under
penalties of perjury or otherwise establishes an exemption.

S-11

UNDERWRITING

We, the selling stockholders and the underwriters named below have entered
into an underwriting agreement with respect to the shares being offered.
Subject to certain conditions, each underwriter has severally agreed to
purchase the number of shares indicated in the following table.

Underwriters Number of Shares
------------ ----------------

Goldman, Sachs & Co............................... 3,461,163
Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated 384,574
---------
Total........................................ 3,845,737
=========

The underwriters are committed to take and pay for all of the shares being
offered, if any are taken.

Neuberger Berman, the executive officers and directors of Neuberger Berman
and the selling stockholders participating in this offering (other than the
Employee Trust and the employees who are participants in our Employee Defined
Contribution Stock Incentive Plan) have agreed with the underwriters not to,
directly or indirectly, offer, sell contract to sell or otherwise dispose of
(other than transfers for clients conducted in the ordinary course of Neuberger
Berman's brokerage activities) any of their common stock or any other
securities of Neuberger Berman that are substantially similar to the shares of
common stock offered under this prospectus supplement, including but not
limited to any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or
that represent the right to receive, common stock or any such substantially
similar securities during the period from the date of this prospectus
supplement continuing through the date 90 days after the date of this
prospectus supplement, except with the prior written consent of Goldman, Sachs
& Co.

However, the restrictions set forth in the prior paragraph will not apply
to (A) common stock issued by Neuberger Berman to individuals in connection
with their being hired as employees of Neuberger Berman or a subsidiary, (B)
any shares of common stock issued by Neuberger Berman upon the exercise of an
option or warrant or upon the conversion of a security outstanding on the date
hereof, a list of which is attached to the underwriting agreement, (C) any
shares of common stock issued or options to purchase common stock granted
pursuant to existing employee benefit plans or director compensation plans of
Neuberger Berman, (D) agreements to sell, or issuances of, securities to
strategic investors or in connection with acquisitions, joint ventures and
other strategic business objectives, so long as those persons to whom Neuberger
Berman issues such securities agree not to sell them for the then remaining
portion of the 90-day lock-up period, (F) the issuance of the shares of common
stock issuable upon conversion of Neuberger Berman's zero coupon senior
convertible notes and (G) any offers, sales, contracts to sell or other
dispositions of shares of common stock to Neuberger Berman.

The underwriters propose to offer the shares of common stock from time to
time for sale in one or more transactions on the New York Stock Exchange, in
the over-the-counter market, through negotiated transactions or otherwise at
market prices, subject to receipt and acceptance by them and subject to their
right to reject any order in whole or in part. In connection with the sale of
the shares of common stock offered hereby, the underwriters may be deemed to
have received compensation in the form of underwriting discounts. The
underwriters may effect such transactions by selling shares of common stock to
or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of
discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or purchasers
of shares of common stock for whom they may act as agents or to whom they may
sell as principals.

S-12

In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell
shares of common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short
sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by
short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater
number of shares than they are required to purchase in the offering. The
underwriters will need to close out any short sale by purchasing shares in the
open market. The underwriters are likely to create a short position if they are
concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the common stock
in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who
purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for
or purchases of common stock made by the underwriters in the open market prior
to the completion of the offering.

Purchases to cover a short position and stabilizing transactions may have
the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the
common stock and may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price
of the common stock. As a result, the price of the common stock may be higher
than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If these
activities are commenced, they may be discontinued at any time. These
transactions may be effected on the New York Stock Exchange, in the
over-the-counter market or otherwise.

The expenses of the offering are estimated at $885,000, and are payable by
the selling stockholders. A portion of such expenses will be paid by Goldman,
Sachs & Co.

We and the selling stockholders have agreed to indemnify the underwriters
against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of
1933.

The underwriters and their affiliates have in the past provided, and may in
the future from time to time provide, commercial or investment banking services
to us, for which they have in the past received, and may in the future receive,
customary fees.

S-13

Certain legal matters with respect to the validity of the offered shares
will be passed upon for us by Willkie Farr & Gallagher, New York, New York and
for the underwriters by Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton, New York, New York.
Mr. Jack H. Nusbaum is chairman of the law firm of Willkie Farr & Gallagher,
and a Director of Neuberger Berman. As of June 30, 2002, Mr. Nusbaum

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed
information included elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this prospectus.
This summary does not contain all of the information that may be important to
you. You should read the entire prospectus, as well as the information
incorporated by reference, before making an investment decision. See
"Forward-Looking Statements" for information relating to statements contained
in this prospectus that are not historical facts.

When we use the term "Trust Companies," we mean Neuberger Berman Trust
Company, N.A. (formerly Neuberger Berman National Trust Company), which holds a
national bank charter, and Neuberger Berman Trust Company of Delaware, a
non-depository limited purpose trust company chartered under the Delaware
Banking Code. However, in certain circumstances, as the context may require,
the term "Trust Companies" includes Neuberger Berman Trust Company of Florida
and Neuberger Berman Trust Company, which, as the result of the consolidation
of our trust business under the framework of our national trust company, were
liquidated with a related transfer of certain assets to, and merged with and
into, Neuberger Berman Trust Company, N.A., respectively, during the third and
fourth quarters of 2001.

Our Business

Neuberger Berman Inc., through its subsidiaries, is an investment advisory
firm with approximately $61.9 billion in assets under management as of March
31, 2002. For over 60 years, the firm and its predecessor companies have
provided clients with a wide array of investment products, services and
strategies. Our business is conducted primarily through our subsidiaries,
Neuberger Berman, LLC and Neuberger Berman Management Inc., both of which are
registered investment advisers and broker-dealers, and Neuberger Berman Trust
Company, N.A. Neuberger Berman, LLC is also a member of the New York Stock
Exchange, Inc. As of March 31, 2002, we conducted our business from 18 offices
in 16 cities.

We were founded in 1939 to be a premier provider of investment products and
services to high net worth individuals. We have built upon the qualities that
have made us successful in the high net worth market to establish a strong
presence in the mutual fund and institutional marketplaces, and to provide
estate planning and trust services through our national and Delaware trust
companies. Our clients include individuals, institutions, corporations, pension
funds, foundations and endowments.

We believe that one of our chief competitive advantages is our dedication
to asset management, and in particular, our focus on asset management for high
net worth individuals. To continue to build on this competitive advantage, we
are actively pursuing new hires and acquisitions, including the addition of
money management teams with existing client relationships, as well as expanding
our national sales force.

In October 1999, we completed an initial public offering of our common
stock. As of June 30, 2002, our employees and our former principals and their
affiliates held approximately 74% of our outstanding common stock. If the
maximum number of shares of common stock covered by this prospectus were
offered and sold, our employees and our former principals and their affiliates
would have held approximately 66% of our outstanding common stock as of that
date.

Our Principal Business Segments

Our principal business segments include Private Asset Management, Mutual
Fund and Institutional and Professional Securities Services. A fourth segment,
"Corporate," reflects certain corporate results that are not directly related
to the day-to-day operations of our principal business.

Private Asset Management

Our Private Asset Management segment includes money management, advisory
services and trust services. This segment provides customized discretionary
investment management services for high net worth individuals, families and
smaller institutions. It represented 48% of net revenues after interest expense
in 2001 and 51% of net revenues after interest expense in the first quarter of
2002.

Assets under management in this segment were approximately $25.7 billion as
of March 31, 2002, including assets managed for clients of the Trust Companies.
In this segment, we managed approximately 16,600 accounts, through
approximately 6,500 relationships, with an average relationship size of
approximately $3.9 million, as of March 31, 2002. Net revenues after interest
expense for 2001 were $295.7 million. This included $88.2 million in commission
revenue, derived principally from listed equity trades executed as broker, on
behalf of clients. Net revenues after interest expense for the first quarter of
2002 were $81.5 million, including $26.0 million in commission revenue.

Mutual Fund and Institutional

Our Mutual Fund and Institutional segment includes our family of mutual
funds, institutional separate account products and wrap products sponsored by
third party brokerage firms and banks, which we offer to a wide array of
clients, from the smallest individual investors to the largest institutions.
The mutual funds and separate accounts in this segment cover a broad spectrum
of asset types, investment styles and market capitalization ranges. Our equity
products include large-cap, mid-cap and small-cap equity offerings, generally
incorporating value, growth and blend investment styles as well as
international and socially responsive products. Our fixed income products
include domestic taxable and tax-exempt offerings of various duration, as well
as global portfolios. We also offer balanced portfolios and money market
products. We make our funds available directly to investors, without a sales
load, and through third parties and sub-advisory relationships. We are actively
seeking opportunities to expand into new distribution channels. For example, we
recently added a team of experienced professionals to initiate an institutional
real estate securities effort. The Mutual Fund and Institutional segment
generated net revenues after interest expense of $223.7 million, which
represented 36% of our net revenues after interest expense in 2001, and net
revenues after interest expense of $56.7 million, which represented 35% of our
net revenues after interest expense in the first quarter of 2002.

For the year ended December 31, 2001, assets under management in this
segment increased by $1.1 billion to approximately $34.0 billion. Our Mutual
Fund and Sub-Advised Account business and our Consultant Services Group
business each contributed $1.1 billion in positive net cash inflows, which, in
each case, represented markedly stronger net cash flow activity compared to the
previous year. These positive net cash inflows were partially offset by net
cash outflows of $0.4 billion in our Institutional Separate Accounts business.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2002, assets under management in this segment
increased by $2.1 billion to approximately $36.1 billion. We continued to
experience net cash inflows in our Mutual Fund and Sub-Advised Account business
and our Consultant Services Group business, contributing $0.9 billion and $0.5
billion during the first quarter of 2002, respectively. Our Institutional
Separate Accounts business contributed an additional $65 million in positive
net cash inflows during the first quarter of 2002.

Professional Securities Services

Our Professional Securities Services segment includes professional investor
clearing services, research sales and other activities. We leverage our asset
management infrastructure to provide services to the professional investment
community and ultra affluent individuals and families. Our Professional
Securities Services clients call upon us for trade execution, clearing,
custody, margin financing, portfolio reporting and trust services. We act as a
market maker for approximately 170 securities traded primarily on the Nasdaq
National Market System. We also provide our research to about 200 outside
investment managers. Because these services are based upon the capabilities and
resources developed for our asset management businesses, we generally can
provide these services at a modest incremental cost. Our Professional
Securities Services segment represented 16% of net revenues after interest
expense in 2001 and 14% of net revenues after interest expense in the first
quarter of 2002.

Investment Process and Research

Our portfolio managers generally base their decisions on fundamental
research, attempting to make knowledgeable judgments about the investment
merits of industry groups and specific companies. Our centralized research
department supports all of our investment professionals. Organized primarily by
industry, our securities analysts are responsible for understanding
developments within the companies and industries they follow. To do this, they
meet with senior management of companies they follow and interview customers
and competitors of those companies. In some cases, they employ specialized
consultants and develop earnings and cash flow estimates. As of March 31, 2002,
we employed 14 analysts in the research department, supported by 19 associate
analysts, who followed approximately 500 companies.

Our Strategy

Capitalize on Opportunities in the Growing High Net Worth Market. Managing
wealth is one of the fastest growing segments of the financial services
industry. According to the Merrill Lynch/Gemini Consulting World Wealth Report
2002, the high net worth market in North America, defined as individuals with
more than $1 million in liquid financial assets, totaled $7.6 trillion in 2001
and is expected to increase to $11.2 trillion by year end 2006, which implies
an annual compound rate of 8.1%. With our brand name, the broad spectrum of our
investment styles and our commitment to personalized service, we believe that
we are well positioned to take advantage of growth in this market. Our
principal initiatives to generate growth are:

. Grow Assets Under Management Through Expanded National Sales
Force. Having expanded our national sales force to 40 professionals and
increased the number of our regional offices to 13, we seek to continue
to grow assets under management through this experienced and larger sales
force. In 2000 and 2001, our national sales force generated $807 million
and approximately $1.7 billion, respectively, of new assets under
management. For the first quarter of 2002, our sales force added $473
million in new assets under management.

. Selectively Continue to Add Experienced Money Management Teams Through
Direct Hiring and Acquisitions. To expand our investment capabilities
and continue to increase our assets under management, we continually seek
opportunities to add experienced money managers with long-standing client
relationships, time-tested investment performance and business styles
well suited to the Neuberger Berman culture. Over the past two years, we
have capitalized on such opportunities by hiring six money management
teams and experienced individual managers, with the most recent two hires
occurring in the first half of 2002. In addition, during the past two
years, two acquisitions resulted in the hiring of private asset

management teams and the successful conversion of a total of $1.3 billion
of client assets at closing. We have also recently announced the hiring
of a real estate investment management team through which we expect to
develop new investment products attractive to high net worth investors.

. Build Our Wealth Management Business. We seek to promote asset retention
from generation to generation through our national trust capabilities and
to provide related products and services in the highly specialized market
of upper echelon wealth. In addition, wealth management is a relationship
focused business that increasingly relies on providing clients with
access to non-affiliated money managers and financial products. We are
endeavoring to extend our money manager database and sophisticated
multi-manager reporting, which we believe are differentiating factors in
delivering valued services to this market. Executive Monetary Management,
Inc., acquired in February 2001, specializes in wealth management by
serving as an independent counselor to upper echelon high net worth
clients to assist them in preserving and enhancing their financial
position. As of March 31, 2002, clients for whom Executive Monetary
Management performs various services had approximately $1.8 billion of
investable assets.

Expand Mutual Fund and Institutional Distribution Capabilities. We believe
that sustained growth in the mutual fund and institutional arenas is dependent
on providing strong relative investment performance, expanding distribution
capabilities and delivering a variety of investment products. To this end our
initiatives include:

. Establish New Relationships with Defined Contribution Plan
Administrators. We seek to establish new relationships with defined
contribution plan administrators. With Congress' passage of the 2001 tax
bill, which allows for increased contributions to retirement accounts, we
expect growth from our existing relationships. As of March 31, 2002, we
had strategic alliances with 96 third-party administrators of defined
contribution plans.

. Expand Relationships with Providers of Variable Insurance Products. We
also seek to expand our relationships with insurance companies that offer
variable annuity and variable life insurance products that invest in our
mutual funds. As of March 31, 2002, we had relationships with 45
insurance companies offering these variable products.

. Build Wrap Fee Program Participation. We seek to continue to broaden our
participation in wrap programs sponsored by third-party banks and
brokerages, as well as to increase the variety of our investment styles
available through this distribution channel. We manage assets for 13
sponsors of wrap fee programs, including three of the four largest
programs. We believe that wrap fee programs represent significant asset
growth opportunities.

. Further Diversify Product and Service Offerings. We continue to enhance
our existing product offerings through the internal development or
acquisition of new investment capabilities. In the past, we have relied
primarily on our domestic equity products. Currently, we offer equity,
international equity, balanced, domestic and international fixed income
and money market products. Historically, we have primarily followed the
value style of investing, but we now have portfolio managers who follow
growth or blended styles of investing. In May 2002, we launched the
Neuberger Berman Real Estate Fund, which is managed by a team of REIT
specialists who joined the firm in January 2002. Additionally, we have
entered into an agreement that is expected to result in a team of high
yield fixed income professionals joining Neuberger Berman during the
third quarter of 2002, which we anticipate will enhance our current high
yield fixed income offerings. We believe a broader array of products will
increase our ability to grow assets under management by attracting new
clients and providing existing clients with a greater variety of
investment options.

Continue to Grow Professional Securities Services. Using our
infrastructure, net revenues after interest expense of our Professional
Securities Services segment have grown by 23% from 1999 through 2001. We seek
to continue to leverage our asset management infrastructure to provide
additional fee-earning services to the professional investment community
without a commensurate increase in expenses.

. Increase the Number of Correspondent Clearing and Prime Brokerage
Clients. We view the Correspondent Clearing and Prime Brokerage Client
business as an incremental revenue opportunity, and will continue using
our systems to provide correspondent clearing and prime brokerage
services to the professional investment community. Our dedicated
marketing group continues to target high quality, established, registered
investment advisers and hedge funds, as well as broker-dealers with
clientele similar to ours.

. Increase Research Sales. Our dedicated research group provides its
independent research reports to our Private Asset Management and Mutual
Fund and Institutional businesses and makes these reports available to
third-party investment managers, who generally place trades through us if
they decide to buy or sell securities based upon our research. We believe
that our long-standing dedication to unbiased, fundamental research
distinguishes us from many of our competitors.

Pursue Strategic Acquisition and Joint Venture Opportunities. In addition
to seeking to add investment teams, we will continue to evaluate strategic
acquisitions of, or joint ventures with, companies that would add new products
and services, investment capabilities or broaden our current distribution
channels. It is our intent that any transaction that we consummate be both
strategic and accretive to earnings.

important objectives:

. increased public float;

. broader ownership of our common stock; and

. the orderly entry of shares into the market.

(1)On October 7, 1999, the principals of Neuberger Berman, LLC and the
shareholders of Neuberger Berman Management Inc. exchanged their ownership
interests for 64.1 million shares of our common stock. Prior to this
exchange, we operated as a partnership and, as a result, the principals were
compensated through the receipt of distributions of capital. In addition,
Neuberger Berman, LLC did not pay United States federal and state taxes as
it was treated as a partnership for tax purposes. Neuberger Berman
Management Inc., as an S-Corporation, also did not pay United States federal
taxes.
(2)In connection with our IPO on October 8, 1999, we incurred pre-tax
reorganization and IPO charges totaling $150.1 million. These charges were
principally comprised of an initial, irrevocable non-cash contribution of
common stock to our employee defined contribution stock incentive plan trust
of $134.3 million (included in employee compensation and benefits), a cash
contribution to the Neuberger Berman Foundation of $10.0 million (included
in other operating expenses) and severance and other charges of $5.8 million
($5.6 million of which is included in employee compensation and benefits and
the remainder in other operating expenses).
(3)Tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2000 reflects a financial
statement tax benefit of $9.8 million related to the change in the price of
our common stock held in our stock incentive plan trust. For purposes of
comparability, exclusive of the financial statement tax benefit, tax expense
would have been $106.3 million and net income would have been $140.6 million.
(4)Per share data has been retroactively adjusted to reflect a three-for-two
stock split of our common stock effective August 16, 2001.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a number of risks, some of
which, including market, operational, legal and regulatory risks, could be
substantial and are inherent in our businesses. You should carefully consider
the following information about these risks, together with the other
information in this prospectus, before buying shares of common stock.

A decline in the prices of securities generally could lead to a decline in our
assets under management, revenues and earnings.

A large portion of our revenues are derived from investment advisory
contracts with our clients. Under these contracts, the investment advisory fees
we receive are typically based on the market value of assets under management.
Accordingly, a decline in the prices of securities generally may cause our
revenues and income to decline by:

. causing the value of our assets under management to decrease, which would
result in lower investment advisory fees; or

. causing our clients to withdraw funds in favor of investments they
perceive offer greater opportunity or lower risk, which would also result
in lower investment advisory fees.

If our revenues decline without a commensurate reduction in our expenses,
our net income will be reduced.

We could lose clients and suffer a decline in our revenues and earnings if the
investments we choose perform poorly, regardless of the trend in the prices of
securities.

We believe that investment performance is one of the most important factors
for the growth of our assets under management. Poor investment performance
could impair our revenues and growth because:

. existing clients might withdraw funds in favor of better performing
products, which would result in lower investment advisory fees;

. our ability to attract funds from existing and new clients might
diminish; or

. firms with which we have strategic alliances may terminate their
relationships with us, and future strategic alliances may be unavailable.

If our revenues decline without a commensurate reduction in our expenses,
our net income will be reduced.

Even when securities prices are rising, performance can be affected by
investment style. In certain recent years, growth stocks outperformed value
stocks as measured by the S&P/BARRA growth and value indices. However, because
of our historical emphasis on the value style of investing, our clients'
portfolios were less invested in growth stocks. As a result, we experienced
some loss of institutional accounts and increased repurchases of shares of the
Neuberger Berman mutual funds in those years.

Our clients can remove the assets we manage on short notice.

Our investment advisory and administrative contracts are generally
terminable at will or upon 30 to 60 days' notice, and mutual fund investors may
redeem their investments in the funds at any time without prior notice.
Institutional and individual clients, and firms with which we have strategic
alliances,

can terminate their relationship with us, reduce the aggregate amount of assets
under management, or shift their funds to other types of accounts with
different rate structures for any of a number of reasons, including investment
performance, changes in prevailing interest rates and financial market
performance. In a declining stock market the pace of mutual fund repurchases
could accelerate. Poor performance relative to other investment management
firms tends to result in decreased purchases of fund shares, increased
redemptions of fund shares, and the loss of institutional or individual
accounts or strategic alliances. The decrease in revenues that could result
from any such event could have a material adverse effect on our business.

The investment management business is intensely competitive.

We face substantial competition in every aspect of our business. Factors
affecting our business include brand recognition, business reputation,
investment performance, quality of service and the continuity of both client
relationships and assets under management. Fee competition also affects the
business, as do expenses, commissions, compensation, administration and/or
other expenses paid to intermediaries.

We compete with a large number of investment management firms. These
include global and domestic investment management companies, commercial banks,
brokerage firms and broker-dealers, insurance companies and other financial
institutions. Many competing firms are parts of larger financial services
companies and attract business through numerous avenues including retail bank
offices, investment banking and underwriting contacts, insurance agencies and
broker-dealers. A number of our competitors have greater capital and other
resources, and offer more comprehensive lines of products and services, than we
do.

The affiliation of U.S. banks and insurance companies with securities firms
has accelerated consolidation within the money management and financial
services industries. It has also increased the variety of competition for
traditional money management firms, which businesses are limited to investing
assets on behalf of institutional and individual clients. Foreign banks and
investment firms have entered the U.S. money management industry, either
directly or through partnerships or acquisitions.

Our competitors seek to expand their market share in many of the same areas
that we serve. Financial intermediaries that provide our products to their
clients may also provide competing products from competing firms, many of which
employ such advisers. Many current and potential competitors have greater brand
name recognition and more extensive client bases, which could be used to our
disadvantage.

We face significant competition from other registered open-end investment
companies. They vary both in size and investment philosophy. Their shares are
offered to the public on a load and no-load basis. Advertising, sales
promotions, the type and quality of services offered, and investment
performance influence competition for mutual fund sales.

Our business may be adversely affected by an inability to recruit, retain
and motivate key employees.

Our ability to attract and retain clients and mutual fund shareholders and
compete effectively in our businesses is dependent on our ability to attract
and retain highly skilled investment management, research, client service,
legal, fiduciary and sales professionals.

The market for such professionals is very competitive and has grown more so
in recent periods as the investment management industry has experienced
substantial growth. Our policy has been to

provide our professionals with compensation and benefits that we believe to be
competitive with other leading investment management firms. The inability to
continue to provide competitive compensation and benefits could affect our
ability to attract or retain skilled professionals.

While we have historically experienced little turnover among our
professionals, we cannot be sure that we will continue to be successful in
retaining our key personnel or in attracting highly qualified professionals. We
do not maintain "key person" insurance on any of our personnel.

We may be unable to continue successfully our strategic initiative of acquiring
companies or adding experienced investment management teams.

As one of our strategic initiatives to generate growth, we intend to
continue to acquire companies and add experienced investment management teams
where such additions would be both strategic and accretive to earnings.
However, we may not be able to identify suitable acquisition targets or
investment teams to add to our firm. In addition, if we do identify suitable
candidates, we may not be able to complete any such acquisition or addition of
teams in a timely manner or on terms that are commercially acceptable to us.
Our management may need to devote significant time and effort to pursuing these
acquisitions or the addition of teams. If we are unable to identify or complete
successfully these acquisitions or additions, we may fail to maintain or
increase assets under management.

We depend on accessing clients through intermediaries.

Our ability to market our mutual funds and subadvisory services is highly
dependent on access to the client base of national and regional securities
firms, banks, insurance companies, defined contribution plan administrators and
other intermediaries which generally offer competing investment products. To a
lesser extent, our Private Asset Management business depends on referrals from
accountants, lawyers, financial planners and other professional advisors.
Although we have historically been successful in gaining access to these
channels, we cannot be sure that we will continue to be able to do so. The
inability to have this access could have a material adverse effect on our
ability to maintain or increase assets under management.

We are subject to extensive regulation; violations of regulatory requirements
could impair our ability to operate or result in fines or damage to our
reputation.

As with all investment management companies and broker-dealers, we and our
mutual fund business are heavily regulated. Noncompliance with applicable
statutes or regulations could result in sanctions including:

. the revocation of licenses to operate certain businesses;

. the suspension or expulsion from a particular jurisdiction or market of
our business organizations or key personnel;

. the imposition of fines and censures; and

. reputational loss.

Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our business and the securities industry in general are subject to
extensive regulation in the United States at both the federal and state level,
as well as by self-regulatory organizations. The financial services industry is
one of the nation's most extensively regulated industries. The Securities and
Exchange Commission is responsible for enforcing the federal securities laws
and serves as a

supervisory body for all investment advisers to mutual funds, as well as for
national securities exchanges and associations. Our subsidiaries, Neuberger
Berman, LLC and Neuberger Berman Management Inc., are registered
broker-dealers. The regulation of broker-dealers has, to a large extent, been
delegated by the federal securities laws to self-regulatory organizations,
including the national securities and commodities exchanges and NASD Inc., or
the NASD. In addition, these subsidiaries are subject to regulation under the
laws of the fifty states, the District of Columbia and certain foreign
countries in which they are registered to conduct securities, investment
advisory or commodities businesses.

Broker-dealers are subject to regulations which cover all aspects of the
securities business, including sales practices, market making and trading among
broker-dealers, use and safekeeping of clients' funds and securities, capital
structure, recordkeeping and the conduct of directors, officers and employees.
Violation of applicable regulations can result in the revocation of
broker-dealer licenses, the imposition of censures or fines and the suspension
or expulsion of a firm, its officers or employees. Neuberger Berman, LLC and
Neuberger Berman Management Inc. are also subject to "Risk Assessment Rules"
imposed by the SEC which require, among other things, that certain
broker-dealers maintain and preserve certain information, describe risk
management policies and procedures and report on the financial condition of
certain affiliates whose financial and securities activities are reasonably
likely to have a material impact on the financial and operational condition of
broker-dealers.

Our trust company subsidiaries are supervised by federal or relevant state
banking authorities, which regulate such matters as policies and procedures
relating to conflicts of interest, account administration and overall
governance and supervisory procedures.

Additional legislation and regulations, including those relating to the
activities of investment advisers and broker-dealers, changes in rules imposed
by the SEC or other U.S. or foreign regulatory authorities and self-regulatory
organizations or changes in the interpretation or enforcement of existing laws
and rules may adversely affect our business and profitability. Our businesses
may be materially affected not only by regulations applicable to it as an
investment adviser or broker-dealer, but also by regulations of general
application. For example, the volume of our principal investment advisory
business in a given time period could be affected by, among other things,
existing and proposed tax legislation and other governmental regulations and
policies (including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board)
and changes in the interpretation or enforcement of existing laws and rules
that affect the business and financial communities.

We are subject to net capital rules that could limit our ability to repay debt
or pay dividends on our common stock.

As registered broker-dealers and members of the NYSE and NASD, Neuberger
Berman, LLC and Neuberger Berman Management Inc. are subject to the SEC's
Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1 which could limit our ability to repay debt or
pay dividends on our common stock. Rule 15c3-1 specifies the minimum level of
net capital a broker-dealer must maintain and also requires that part of its
assets be kept in relatively liquid form. Neuberger Berman, LLC is also subject
to the net capital requirements of various securities and other self-regulatory
organizations.

The SEC and various self-regulatory organizations impose rules that require
notification when net capital falls below certain predefined criteria, dictate
the ratio of subordinated debt to equity in the regulatory capital composition
of a broker-dealer and constrain the ability of a broker-dealer to expand its
business under certain circumstances. Additionally, Rule 15c3-1 imposes certain
requirements that may have the effect of prohibiting a broker-dealer from
distributing or withdrawing capital and requiring prior notice to the SEC for
certain withdrawals of capital. Since our principal assets are our ownership of
our broker-dealer subsidiaries, the rules governing net capital and
restrictions on capital withdrawals could limit our ability to repay debt or
pay dividends on our common stock.

As of March 31, 2002, Neuberger Berman, LLC was required to maintain
minimum net capital of approximately $21.0 million and had total excess net
capital of approximately $195.1 million. As of March 31, 2002, Neuberger Berman
Management Inc. was required to maintain minimum net capital of $250,000 and
had total excess net capital of approximately $5.2 million.

Our business is heavily dependent upon computer-based systems to process
transactions; systems failures may disrupt our business and limit our growth.

Our business is highly dependent on communications and information systems
and those of our key service vendors. Any failure or interruption of such
systems could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.
Operational risk arises from mistakes made in the confirmation or settlement of
transactions or from the improper recording or accounting of transactions. We
are highly dependent on our ability to process a large number of transactions
on a daily basis, and rely heavily on financial, accounting and other data
processing systems. If any of these do not function properly, we could suffer
financial loss, business disruption, liability to clients, regulatory
intervention or damage to our reputation. If systems are unable to accommodate
an increasing volume of transactions, our ability to expand could be affected.
Although we have back-up systems in place, we cannot be sure that any such
systems failure or interruption, whether caused by a fire, other natural
disaster, power or telecommunications failure, act of war or otherwise will not
occur, or that back-up procedures and capabilities in the event of any such
failure or interruption will be adequate.

The securities brokerage business has inherent risks.

The securities brokerage business is, by its nature, subject to numerous
and substantial risks, particularly in volatile or illiquid markets, and in
markets influenced by sustained periods of low or negative economic growth,
including the risk of losses resulting from the ownership of securities,
trading, principal activities, counterparty failure to meet commitments, client
fraud, employee errors, misconduct and fraud (including unauthorized
transactions by traders), failures in connection with the processing of
securities transactions and litigation. Our trading activities for our own
account are limited. Therefore, the principal risks of trading are those
relating to counterparty failure and unauthorized trading. We have risk
management procedures and internal controls to address these risks but we
cannot be certain that these procedures and controls will prevent losses from
occurring.

Our former principals are parties to a stockholders agreement that gives them
significant influence over us, and they may have interests that differ from
those of other stockholders.

As of June 30, 2002, the former Neuberger Berman principals who are
currently employed by us and their affiliates held approximately 42% of our
outstanding common stock. If the maximum number of shares of common stock held
by such principals and their affiliates specifically named in this prospectus
and identified as being offered by them under this prospectus were offered and
sold, such principals and their affiliates would have held approximately 38% of
our outstanding common stock as of June 30, 2002. Neuberger Berman is a party
to a Stockholders Agreement with the former Neuberger Berman principals and
certain family limited partnerships and trusts formed by them providing that:

. before every stockholders' meeting, the former Neuberger Berman
principals who are currently employed by us and their affiliates will
take a separate preliminary vote on all the issues that will be presented
at the stockholders' meeting; and

. all shares held by them must be voted as a block in accordance with the
majority of shares voted in such preliminary vote.

As a result, the former Neuberger Berman principals who are currently employed
by us and their affiliates have significant influence on our board of
directors, and, therefore, our business, policies and affairs including certain
corporate transactions that require stockholder approval, such as mergers and
sales of our assets. The influence exerted by these former Neuberger Berman
principals and their affiliates and the transfer restrictions in the
Stockholders Agreement could preclude any unsolicited acquisition of Neuberger
Berman and, consequently, adversely affect the market price of the common stock
or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium on their shares. See
"Description of Capital Stock--Stockholders Agreement."

Provisions of our organizational documents and Delaware law may discourage an
acquisition of Neuberger Berman and prevent our stockholders from realizing a
premium on their shares.

Our organizational documents contain provisions that may discourage a third
party from making a proposal to acquire us. For example, the Board of Directors
may, without the consent of our stockholders, issue preferred stock with
greater voting rights than those associated with our common stock. In addition,
the Delaware corporation law imposes restrictions on mergers and other business
combinations between us and any holder of 15% or more of our voting stock. See
"Description of Capital Stock" for a more detailed description of our capital
stock and relevant Delaware corporation law. These provisions could preclude
any unsolicited acquisition of Neuberger Berman and, consequently, adversely
affect the market price of the common stock or prevent our stockholders from
realizing a premium on their shares.

Our share price may decline due to the large number of shares eligible for
future sale.

As of June 30, 2002, 70,164,694 shares of our common stock were issued and
outstanding. Sales, or the possibility of sales, of substantial amounts of
common stock by the former Neuberger Berman principals and their affiliates may
materially adversely affect the market price of the common stock prevailing
from time to time. The Stockholders Agreement limits the number of shares the
former principals and their affiliates may sell in any calendar year. The
restrictions on the disposition of shares contained in the Stockholders
Agreement can be waived by our Board of Directors or its designee without
notice to or consent of our stockholders. The 3,816,926 shares of common stock
that may be offered and sold by our former principals and their affiliates
under this prospectus are subject to the transfer restrictions contained in the
Stockholders Agreement that prevent their sale prior to January 1, 2003. Our
Board of Directors or its designee may waive these restrictions to permit the
sale of all of these shares prior to January 1, 2003 in one or more
transactions. After giving effect to the sale of all of the shares held by our
former principals and their affiliates under this prospectus, an additional
1,490,956 shares of common stock may be sold by such principals and their
affiliates beginning on January 1, 2003.

The Neuberger Berman Employee Defined Contribution Stock Incentive Plan
Trust holds an aggregate of 4,502,050 shares of common stock on behalf of
participants in our Employee Defined Contribution Stock Incentive Plan. The
right of a participant to receive shares allocated to his or her account
generally becomes vested, and the shares become distributable to the
participant, in three equal installments on the second, third and fourth
anniversaries of the allocation to the participant, subject to the satisfaction
of certain conditions. Accordingly, in July 2001, 1,856,274 shares of common
stock became vested under the plan and 1,856,230 shares of common stock held by
the Employee Trust are scheduled to vest in October 2002. All of the 1,183,074
shares of common stock held by the Employee Trust and covered by this
prospectus are scheduled to vest in October 2002 and may not be sold prior to
the vesting date unless Neuberger Berman accelerates the vesting of such
shares. Neuberger Berman may accelerate the vesting of such shares to permit
their sale in an offering prior to October 2002.

You may have no effective remedy against Arthur Andersen LLP in connection with
a material misstatement or omission in our 1999, 2000 and 2001 financial
statements included in this prospectus.

On June 15, 2002, Arthur Andersen LLP, which audited our financial
statements included in this prospectus for the years ended December 31, 1999,
2000 and 2001, was convicted by a jury in Houston, Texas, of obstruction of
justice in connection with the government's investigation of Enron Corp. Arthur
Andersen LLP has consented to the inclusion of their report relating to those
financial statements in the registration statement containing this prospectus
as filed with the SEC. You may have no effective remedy against Arthur Andersen
LLP in connection with any material misstatement or omission in these financial
statements, particularly in the event that Arthur Andersen LLP ceases to exist
or becomes insolvent as a result of the indictment or other proceedings against
Arthur Andersen LLP.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Our disclosure and analysis in this prospectus or in documents that are
incorporated in this prospectus by reference contain some forward looking
statements. Forward looking statements give our current expectations or
forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that
they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such
as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe,"
and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion
of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include
statements relating to future actions, future performance of our products,
expenses, the outcome of any legal proceedings, and financial results. Although
we believe that our expectations and beliefs are based on reasonable
assumptions within the bounds of our knowledge of our business and operations,
there can be no assurance that our actual results will not differ materially
from our expectations or beliefs. Some of the factors that could cause our
actual results to differ from our expectations or beliefs include, without
limitation, the adverse effect from a decline in the securities markets or if
our products' performance declines, a general downturn in the economy, changes
in government policy or regulation, our inability to attract or retain key
employees and unforeseen costs and other effects related to legal proceedings
or investigations of governmental and self-regulatory organizations, as well as
the factors discussed under the heading "Risk Factors." These statements are
provided as permitted by the Private Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We
undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock by the
selling stockholders.

On July 19, 2002, the closing sales price per share for our common stock on
the NYSE was $30.68. There were approximately 99 stockholders of record of our
common stock as of February 15, 2002. As of February 15, 2002, there were
approximately 2,500 beneficial stockholders whose shares are held in street
name.

The declaration of dividends by Neuberger Berman is subject to the
discretion of our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors will take into
account such matters as general business conditions, our financial results,
capital requirements, contractual, legal and regulatory restrictions on the
payment of dividends by us to our stockholders or by our subsidiaries to us,
and such other factors as our Board of Directors may deem relevant.

To the extent that assets are used to meet minimum net capital requirements
of Neuberger Berman, LLC and Neuberger Berman Management Inc. under Rule
15c3-1, they are not available for distribution to stockholders as dividends.
See "Risk Factors--We are subject to net capital rules that could limit our
ability to repay debt or pay dividends on our common stock" for a discussion of
certain limitations on our receipt of funds from our regulated subsidiaries. In
addition, the debt covenants related to Neuberger Berman, LLC's outstanding $35
million subordinated note and $100 million committed line of credit include
certain covenants that may further restrict our ability to pay dividends to
stockholders.

Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of our common stock in
the open market and/or private purchases. The acquired shares may be used for
corporate purposes, including shares issued to employees under our employee
stock purchase plans. Since the inception of our common stock repurchase
program, we have repurchased 5,946,595 shares of common stock for $220.1
million, including 2,400,900 shares which were repurchased from a limited
number of former principals in a transaction that followed the secondary
offering in July 2001. We used cash flows from operations and the proceeds from
our convertible notes offering to fund the purchases of these shares. As of
March 31, 2002, authorizations for the repurchase of up to $29.9 million of our
common stock remained in effect. On April 22, 2002, our Board of Directors
approved a $75 million increase to the existing authorization.

(1) On October 7, 1999, the principals of Neuberger Berman, LLC and the
shareholders of Neuberger Berman Management Inc. exchanged their ownership
interests for 64.1 million shares of our common stock. Prior to this
exchange, we operated as a partnership and, as a result, the principals
were compensated through the receipt of distributions of capital. In
addition, Neuberger Berman, LLC did not pay United States federal and state
taxes as it was treated as a partnership for tax purposes. Neuberger Berman
Management Inc., as an S-Corporation, also did not pay United States
federal taxes.
(2) In connection with our IPO on October 8, 1999, we incurred pre-tax
reorganization and IPO charges totaling $150.1 million. These charges were
principally comprised of an initial, irrevocable non-cash contribution of
common stock to our employee defined contribution stock incentive plan
trust $134.3 million (included in employee compensation and benefits), a
cash contribution to the Neuberger Berman Foundation of $10.0 million
(included in other operating expenses) and severance and other charges of
$5.8 million ($5.6 million of which is included in employee compensation
and benefits and the remainder in other operating expenses).
(3) Tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2000, reflects a financial
statement tax benefit of $9.8 million related to the change in the price of
our common stock held in our stock incentive plan trust. For purposes of
comparability, exclusive of the financial statement tax benefit, tax
expense would have been $106.3 million and net income would have been
$140.6 million.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following management's discussion and analysis of the results of
operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2002 and for the years
ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001 should be read in conjunction with our
consolidated financial statements together and accompanying notes included
elsewhere in this prospectus.

Forward Looking Statements

Our disclosure and analysis in this prospectus or in documents that are
incorporated in this prospectus by reference contain some forward looking
statements. Forward looking statements give our current expectations or
forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that
they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such
as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe,"
and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion
of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include
statements relating to future actions, future performance of our products,
expenses, the outcome of any legal proceedings, and financial results. Although
we believe that our expectations and beliefs are based on reasonable
assumptions within the bounds of our knowledge of our business and operations,
there can be no assurance that our actual results will not differ materially
from our expectations or beliefs. Some of the factors that could cause our
actual results to differ from our expectations or beliefs include, without
limitation, the adverse effect from a decline in the securities markets or if
our products' performance declines, a general downturn in the economy, changes
in government policy or regulation, our inability to attract or retain key
employees and unforeseen costs and other effects related to legal proceedings
or investigations of governmental and self-regulatory organizations. These
statements are provided as permitted by the Private Litigation Reform Act of
1995. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward looking
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Business Environment

The financial markets were marked by significant turbulence in 2001, in
part due to the September 11/th /tragedy. The September 11/th/ tragedy resulted
in a sharp drop in consumer and business spending and created additional
negative momentum in an already difficult year in the financial markets. The
U.S. economy had entered a recession starting in March 2001 and the equity
markets remained far below their peak levels reached in March 2000. Due to
weakening investor confidence, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index, or S&P 500,
fell 13.0% in 2001, its second negative annual return in a row. Almost every
major equity index yielded negative returns for the year.

Late in 2001, it appeared an economic recovery began to emerge, due in part
to fiscal and monetary stimuli. Throughout 2001, the Federal Reserve Board
engaged in an aggressive interest-rate cutting campaign, lowering short-term
interest rates to 1.75%, the lowest level in the last 40 years. In Washington,
D.C., a new administration also enacted major tax law changes to boost
investments and cut taxes for investors. Although the S&P 500 steeply declined
after September 11/th/, hitting a low point of 965.80 on September 21/st/, it
rallied in December and ended 2001 at 1,148.08. The S&P 500, however, remained
well below its record level of 1,527.46, achieved on March 24, 2000.

While equity markets suffered in 2001, fixed income markets rallied, due in
part to the Federal Reserve Board's rate-cutting actions as well as significant
investors' interest in safe investments. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond
Index rose 8.4% during the year. Additionally, the U.S. Treasury Department
halted issuance of 30-year bonds, resulting in demand for long-term fixed-income

securities in other areas of the bond market. The U.S. agency market performed
well as buyers sought high-quality issues. Corporate bonds also performed well
as a class, despite record supply and rising credit quality concerns. Credit
downgrades in 2001 outnumbered upgrades by a ratio of 2.9 to 1, marking the
steepest decline in corporate credit since 1991. The bankruptcy filing of Enron
Corp. in December of 2001 heightened volatility in the energy sector, while
ripple effects spread to other sectors, particularly among conglomerates and
companies with complex financing structures.

During 2001, developments in the market were mostly unfavorable for the
securities industry. Declining asset values and narrowing interest rate spreads
led to reduced profits from client financings. Also, the implementation of
decimal-based pricing in the stock market squeezed profit margins in the market
making and trading businesses.

U.S. equity markets struggled to gain momentum in the first quarter of
2002. The markets were negatively influenced by the investigation and
accounting issues related to Enron Corp. as well as mixed signals on the
economy. On a total return basis, the major indices turned in mixed results for
the first quarter as the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 4.3%, the S&P 500
gained 0.3%, and the Nasdaq Composite lost 5.4%.

During the first quarter of 2002, signs of economic recovery began to
emerge as manufacturing activity increased, productivity levels improved, and
consumer confidence rose to its highest level since August of 2001. In
response, investors turned to cyclical sectors of the market, avoiding
growth-oriented stocks in the technology and healthcare sectors. Despite
positive economic news, the Federal Reserve Board held interest rates steady,
but adopted a neutral stance on the economy and inflation. Small-cap stocks
continued to outperform larger stocks, and the value style of investing
outpaced the growth style. Near the end of the quarter, violence in the Middle
East sent oil prices higher, resulting in concern over rising inflation and
interest rates.

The increase in our assets under management during the above-mentioned
periods supports our belief that difficult market conditions tend to convince
more investors--both individual and institutional--of the real value, over the
long term, of seeking professional advice and active management of their money.
While we offer all styles of investing, we believe our longstanding expertise
in value investing will serve us well in a difficult market environment. Our
investment performance was strong in a difficult market environment. Assets
under management reached an all-time high of $61.9 billion at March 31, 2002 an
increase of 12.9% from $54.8 billion at March 31, 2001 and up 4.8% from $59.0
billion at December 31, 2001. Assets under management in our Private Asset
Management segment also hit an all-time high of approximately $25.7 billion at
March 31, 2002. This represents an increase of 2.9% from $25.0 billion at
December 31, 2001 and a rise of 13.0% from $22.8 billion at March 31, 2001.
Relative investment performance in this segment continued to be excellent,
outperforming the rate of return of the S&P 500 in the same quarter. Assets
under management in our Mutual Fund and Institutional segment was approximately
$36.1 billion at March 31, 2002, up 12.9% from $32.0 billion at March 31, 2001
and up 6.2% from $34.0 billion at December 31, 2001. Additionally, mutual fund
performance was good, with the four largest of our equity funds outperforming
the S&P 500.

Recent Developments

On April 22, 2002, we announced that we entered into an agreement which
would result in the high yield bond team from Lipper & Company becoming our
employees. The team manages in excess of $500 million in assets, including the
Lipper High Income Bond Fund, investment partnerships and separate accounts for
both institutional and high net worth clients. The transactions contemplated by
this agreement are subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions
and have not yet been consummated.

On April 23, 2002, we announced that our Board of Directors has appointed
KPMG LLP as our independent auditors replacing Arthur Andersen LLP. The
decision to change auditors was not the

result of any disagreement between Arthur Andersen LLP and us on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedure.

On May 1, 2002, we announced the launch of our Real Estate Fund, a mutual
fund that seeks capital growth and current income by investing in real estate
securities.

On May 2, 2002, we amended the terms of our senior convertible notes to
permit the holders, at their option, to cause us to repurchase the convertible
securities on November 4, 2002, at their then accreted value of $870.67 per
$1,000 principal amount at maturity. We also announced that each holder
electing not to require us to repurchase our convertible securities as of May
4, 2002, would receive a one-time payment of $4.34 for every $1,000 aggregate
principal amount at maturity of the convertible securities held. As of the
close of business May 3, 2002, holders of approximately 5% or $8.7 million
principal amount at maturity of the convertible securities exercised their
option to cause us to repurchase their convertible securities. We paid $7.6
million for these repurchases in cash on May 6, 2002. On May 8, 2002, we made a
one-time payment of $4.34 for every $1,000 aggregate principal amount at
maturity to each holder of our convertible securities as of the close of
business on May 7, 2002.

General

Our revenues are recorded in the business segments in which they are
earned. We derive our revenues primarily from fees for investment advisory and
administrative services provided to our private asset management, mutual fund,
institutional and wrap fee clients. Investment advisory and administrative fees
that we earn are generally based on the total market value and composition of
assets under management. As a result, fluctuations in financial markets and
client asset additions and withdrawals have a direct effect on our net revenues
and net income. Our fees vary with the type of assets managed, with higher fees
earned on actively managed equity accounts and lower fees earned on
fixed-income and cash management accounts.

Through our broker-dealer, Neuberger Berman, LLC, we earn commissions by
executing equity securities transactions for private asset management, mutual
fund and institutional clients as well as for third parties in professional
investor clearing services and research sales transactions. The majority of our
commissions are earned from transactions for private asset management clients.
Our commissions, derived from all business segments, may fluctuate based on
general market conditions. Also, through Neuberger Berman, LLC, we earn
clearance fees for the settlement of securities transactions for various
introducing brokers.

We generate additional income by managing cash balances available as a
result of our broker-dealer activities. The three principal areas from which we
generate net interest income are treasury management (managing overnight cash
balances), global securities lending activities and client cash and margin
balances. We evaluate these activities by focusing on net interest income. Net
interest income fluctuates based on general market conditions, prevailing
interest rates and the amount of client cash and margin balances.

Our operating expenses include direct expenses, such as employee
compensation and benefits, information technology and rent and occupancy, and
indirect expenses, such as general and administrative, research, execution and
clearance expenses. Direct expenses are charged to the business segment in
which they are incurred while indirect expenses are allocated to each business
segment based upon various methodologies determined by management.

Our largest operating expense is employee compensation and benefits, the
most significant component being variable compensation for portfolio managers
and sales personnel, which is based

largely on commissions and advisory fees. Historically, because we had operated
as a partnership, substantially all payments to our principals were accounted
for as distributions from principals' capital and not recorded as compensation
expense.

On October 7, 1999, the members of Neuberger Berman, LLC and the
shareholders of Neuberger Berman Management Inc. exchanged their ownership
interests for 64.1 million shares of our common stock (the "Exchange"). On
October 13, 1999, we completed our initial public offering (the "IPO"). In that
offering, we sold 4.5 million shares of common stock and received net proceeds
after expenses of approximately $88 million. In addition, certain of our
stockholders who received our common stock in the Exchange sold 6,329,545
shares of that stock in the IPO. We did not receive the proceeds from the sale
of that stock. In connection with our IPO, we incurred pre-tax reorganization
and IPO charges totaling approximately $150.1 million (the "Reorganization and
IPO Charges"). The Reorganization and IPO Charges were principally comprised of
an initial, irrevocable non-cash contribution of common stock to our employee
defined contribution stock incentive plan trust (the "Stock Incentive Plan") of
$134.3 million, a cash contribution to the Neuberger Berman Foundation of $10.0
million and severance and other charges of $5.8 million. To allow for a more
consistent analysis of expenses, these Reorganization and IPO Charges have not
been directly considered in the discussion of results of operations.

Prior to the Exchange, Neuberger Berman, LLC did not pay United States
federal and state taxes because, as a limited liability company, it was treated
as a partnership for tax purposes, and its members were taxed on their
proportionate share of Neuberger Berman, LLC's taxable income or loss.
Neuberger Berman Management Inc., as an S-Corporation, also did not pay United
States federal taxes prior to the Exchange, but was subject to certain state
and local taxes, and its shareholders were responsible for their own federal
income taxes. Effective with the Exchange, we became subject to federal, state
and local income taxes and we file a consolidated federal income tax return.

Results of Operations

Our business is divided functionally into three major business segments:
Private Asset Management, Mutual Fund and Institutional and Professional
Securities Services. Our Private Asset Management segment provides customized
investment management services for high net worth individuals, families and
smaller institutions through money management, advisory services and trust
services. The investment advisory and administrative services that we provide
through our Mutual Fund and Institutional segment include: the management of
the Neuberger Berman family of mutual funds, investment management of
institutional separate account products and wrap products sponsored by third
party brokerage firms and banks. Our Professional Securities Services segment
provides trade execution, clearing, custody, margin financing, portfolio
reporting and trust services through professional investor clearing services,
wealth management services, research sales and other activities, including
market making, global securities lending, custody and recordkeeping services
and treasury management. The Corporate segment reflects certain corporate
results that are not directly related to the day-to-day operations of our
principal business. These include results from investments in our mutual funds,
corporate marketing expense, interest on long-term debt and goodwill
amortization. Prior periods have been revised to conform with the presentation
for the year ended December 31, 2001 and the three months ended March 31, 2002.
Each of our business segments represents a grouping of financial activities and
products with similar characteristics. The following tables of selected
financial data present our business segments in a manner consistent with the
way that we manage our businesses.

(1) As of December 31, 2001, Private Asset Management included $49 of assets
invested in EMM's hedge fund products.
(2) As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, Mutual Fund and Institutional included
$121 and $88 of client assets invested in the Fund Advisory Service wrap
mutual fund program with third party funds, respectively.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2002 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31,
2001

We reported net income before taxes of $57.8 million for the first quarter
ended March 31, 2002, representing a decrease of $1.2 million or 2.1%, compared
to $59.1 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2001. Our net revenues
after interest expense were $160.2 million for the first quarter of 2002, an
increase of $5.4 million or 3.5% compared to the same period in 2001. Our first
quarter results for 2002 reflect increases in net revenues after interest
expense in Private Asset Management and Mutual Fund and Institutional,
partially offset by a decrease in net revenues after interest expense in
Professional Securities Services, and a smaller net loss after interest expense
in our Corporate segment. Assets under management increased to $61.9 billion at
March 31, 2002, up $7.1 billion or 12.9% when compared to $54.8 billion at
March 31, 2001. The increase in assets under management of $3.0 billion in
Private Asset Management is due to net asset additions of $1.4 billion coupled
with market appreciation of $1.6 billion. The increase in assets under
management of $4.1 billion in Mutual Fund and Institutional is due to net asset
additions of $2.3 billion coupled with market appreciation of $1.8 billion.

Private Asset Management. Our net revenues after interest expense
increased 7.4% to $81.5 million for the first quarter of 2002, from $75.9
million for the first quarter of 2001. Our investment advisory fees increased
6.5% to $54.5 million for the first quarter of 2002, from $51.1 million for the
same period in 2001, due to an increase in assets under management to $25.0
billion at December 31, 2001 (the billable base for the first quarter of 2002)
from $22.5 billion at December 31, 2000 (the billable base for the first
quarter of 2001). Because investment advisory fees from Private Asset
Management are based on the previous quarter's asset levels, we expect an
increase in advisory fees for the second quarter of 2002 commensurate with the
increased asset levels at March 31, 2002. Our commissions increased 11.5% to
$26.0 million in the first quarter of 2002, from $23.3 million in the first
quarter of 2001, resulting from an increase in commission generating share
transactions. Our net interest income decreased 34.2% to $0.9 million in the
first quarter of 2002, from $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2001, due to a
combination of lower average balances related to client financing and narrowing
interest spreads.

Mutual Fund and Institutional. Our net revenues after interest expense
increased 2.8% to $56.7 million for the first quarter of 2002, from $55.2
million for the first quarter of 2001. Our investment advisory and
administrative fees increased 1.7% to $52.4 million for the first quarter of
2002, from $51.5 million for the same period in 2001, due primarily to
increases in fees in our wrap and mutual fund businesses as a result of higher
asset levels and an increase in average daily assets under management,
respectively, partially offset by a decrease in fees from our institutional
separate account business. Our commissions increased 16.2% to $4.3 million in
the first quarter of 2002, from $3.7 million in the first quarter of 2001, as a
result of an increase in commission generating share transactions.

Professional Securities Services. Our net revenues after interest expense
decreased 11.7% to $22.7 million in the first quarter of 2002, from $25.7
million in the first quarter of 2001. Our investment advisory fees increased to
$2.0 million in the first quarter of 2002, from $0.6 million for the same
period in 2001, due primarily to an increase in fees from our wealth management
services resulting from the acquisition of Executive Monetary Management, Inc.
Our commissions decreased 3.8% to $9.4 million in the first quarter of 2002,
from $9.7 million in the first quarter of 2001, as a result of an increase in
overall commission generating shares in our prime brokerage business which was
more than offset by lower commission activity in certain accounts. Our net gain
resulting from principal transactions decreased 58.9% to $0.7 million in the
first quarter of 2002, from $1.6 million in the same period of 2001, primarily
due to a decline in market making activity related to a combination of the drop
in the Nasdaq market and narrowing of transaction spreads as a result of the
decimalization program. Our net interest income decreased 43.0% to $5.4 million
in the first quarter of 2002, from $9.5 million in

the first quarter of 2001, primarily due to lower average balances related to
client financing and narrowing interest spreads resulting from the decrease in
absolute interest rates. This was partially offset by a reduction in bank loan
interest expense due to the increased cash generation from our business. Our
clearance fees decreased 23.2% to $2.9 million in the first quarter of 2002,
from $3.8 million for the same period in 2001. Our other income increased to
$2.3 million in the first quarter of 2002, from $0.4 million in the first
quarter of 2001, primarily as a result of an increase in syndicate activity.

Corporate. Our net loss after interest expense decreased to $0.7 million
in the first quarter of 2002, from $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2001,
primarily as a result of an increase in value of our investment in our mutual
funds.

Operating Expenses. Our total operating expenses were $102.4 million in
the first quarter of 2002, an increase of $6.6 million or 6.9% when compared to
$95.8 million in the first quarter of 2001. Employee compensation and benefits
increased to $68.4 million in the first quarter of 2002, from $65.6 million in
the first quarter of 2001. This was primarily due to increases in salaries
attributable to employees related to our recent acquisitions and an increase in
the amortization of unearned compensation. Our rent and occupancy costs
increased to $5.5 million in the first quarter of 2002, up $0.9 million or
19.0% from $4.6 million in the same period of 2001, primarily due to additional
costs associated with expansion in our principal place of business and
escalations. Our brokerage, clearing and exchange fees increased to $3.0
million in the first quarter of 2002, up $0.3 million or 12.5% from $2.7
million in the same period of 2001, primarily due to increased exchange fees
commensurate with higher transaction volume. Our advertising and sales
promotion expenses decreased to $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2002, down
$0.4 million or 13.9% from $2.5 million in the same period of 2001, primarily
due to reduced expenditures on media advertising and print campaigns, partially
offset by an increase in promotional activities in Private Asset Management.
Our distribution and fund administration expenses increased to $5.8 million in
the first quarter of 2002, up $1.4 million or 33.2% from $4.4 million in the
same period of 2001, primarily due to an increase in average mutual fund
assets, which directly affects payments to third parties. Our professional fees
increased to $2.5 million for the first quarter of 2002, up $0.6 million or
29.4% from $2.0 million in the first quarter of 2001, primarily due to an
increase in legal fees. Depreciation and amortization increased to $3.7 million
in the first quarter of 2002, up $0.9 million or 33.4% from $2.8 million for
the same period in 2001, primarily due to amortization of new leasehold
improvements, as well as depreciation resulting from expenditures on technology
related equipment.

Taxes. Our taxes decreased to $24.6 million in the first quarter of 2002,
down $0.2 million or 1.0% from $24.8 million for the same period in 2001, due
to lower net income before taxes, partially offset by a slightly higher
effective tax rate.

2001 Compared with 2000

We reported net income before taxes of $229.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 2001, representing a decrease of $17.9 million or 7.2%, compared
to $246.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. Our net revenues after
interest expense were $613.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, a
decrease of $3.1 million or 0.5%, compared to $616.3 million for the same
period in 2000. Our results for 2001 reflect an increase in net revenues after
interest expense in Private Asset Management, which was more than offset by
decreases in net revenues after interest expense in Mutual Fund and
Institutional and Professional Securities Services and by a larger net loss
after interest expense in our Corporate segment. Assets under management
increased to $59.0 billion at December 31, 2001, up $3.6 billion or 6.4% when
compared to $55.5 billion at December 31, 2000. Net asset additions during 2001
in Private Asset Management and Mutual Fund and Institutional of $2.7 billion
and $1.8 billion, respectively, were partially offset by market depreciation in
Private Asset

Management and Mutual Fund and Institutional of $0.2 billion and $0.7 billion,
respectively. The closing of the U.S. equity markets for four trading days as a
result of the September 11th tragedy did not significantly impact our brokerage
related revenue.

Private Asset Management. Our net revenues after interest expense
increased 1.7% to $295.7 million for 2001, from $290.7 million for 2000. Our
investment advisory fees increased 5.5% to $202.0 million for 2001, from $191.4
million for 2000, primarily due to increases in average quarterly billable
assets under management from $22.0 billion in 2000 to $ 22.8 billion in 2001.
Assets under management at December 31, 2001, which included approximately $900
million related to our acquisition of certain of the assets of Oscar Capital
Management, LLC, reached a record level of $25.0 billion, up 11.1% from $22.5
billion at the end of the year 2000. As a result, we expect our investment
advisory fees, which are based on the previous quarter's ending asset levels,
to increase in the first quarter of 2002. Higher transaction volume resulted in
an increase in overall commission generating shares, although this was more
than offset by lower commission activity in certain accounts. As a result, our
commissions decreased 6.1% to $88.2 million in 2001, from $94.0 million in 2000.

Mutual Fund and Institutional. Our net revenues after interest expense
decreased 0.2% to $223.7 million for 2001, from $224.1 million for 2000. Our
investment advisory and administrative fees decreased 0.5% to $205.9 million
for 2001, from $207.0 million for 2000, due primarily to decreases in fees from
our institutional separate account and mutual fund businesses, partially offset
by an increase in fees due to higher asset levels in our wrap business as well
as a full year's fees from our Advisory Services product. Our commissions
increased 4.2% to $17.7 million in 2001, from $17.0 million for 2000, as a
result of an increase in commission generating share transactions.

Professional Securities Services. Our net revenues after interest expense
decreased 5.8% to $98.9 million for 2001, from $105.0 million for 2000. Our
investment advisory fees increased to $5.7 million for 2001, from $1.5 million
for 2000, due primarily to an increase in our wealth management services
resulting from the acquisition of Executive Monetary Management, Inc. Our
commissions increased 8.7% to $38.8 million in 2001, from $35.7 million in
2000, as a result of an increase in commission generating share transactions in
our prime brokerage and research sales businesses. Our net gain resulting from
principal transactions decreased 63.4% to $3.9 million in 2001, from $10.7
million in 2000, primarily due to a decline in market making activity related
to a combination of the drop in the Nasdaq market and the narrowing of
transaction spreads as a result of the continued implementation of the
decimalization program. Our net interest income decreased 11.8% to $33.8
million in 2001, from $38.3 million in 2000, primarily due to lower average
balances related to client financing and narrowing interest spreads resulting
from the decrease in absolute interest rates. This was partially offset by
increases in net interest attributable to our global securities lending
business, dividend and interest income related to excess cash positions and our
investment in municipal bonds, as well as a reduction in interest expense due
to lower bank loan requirements. Our other income decreased 37.8% to $3.3
million in 2001, from $5.3 million in 2000, primarily due to a decrease in
syndicate activity.

Corporate. Our net loss after interest expense increased to $5.1 million
in 2001, from $3.4 million in 2000, primarily as a result of interest expense
related to our long-term debt.

Operating Expenses. Our total operating expenses were $384.2 million in
2001, an increase of $14.8 million or 4.0% when compared to $369.4 million for
2000. Employee compensation and benefits increased to $253.4 million in 2001,
up $7.9 million or 3.2% from $245.4 million for 2000. This was primarily due to
increases in salaries, benefits and production compensation, which were
partially offset by a decrease in incentive compensation. Our rent and
occupancy costs increased to $20.8 million in 2001, up $3.0 million or 17.0%
from $17.8 million in 2000, primarily due to additional costs associated with
expansion in our principal place of business coupled with the full year of rent
expense

for the branch offices opened during 2000. Our brokerage, clearing and exchange
fees increased to $12.0 million in 2001, up $1.5 million or 14.3% from $10.5
million in 2000, primarily due to an increase in exchange fees resulting from a
higher proportion of orders with smaller share amounts as well as increased
dues and assessments and registration fees. Depreciation and amortization
increased to $13.1 million in 2001, up $2.4 million or 22.8% from $10.6 million
in 2000, primarily due to amortization of goodwill, as well as depreciation
resulting from technology related expenditures.

Taxes. Our taxes decreased to $96.4 million for 2001, down $0.2 million or
0.2% from $96.6 million in the same period for 2000. The 2000 provision
includes a financial statement tax benefit of $9.8 million related to the
change in the price of our common stock from December 31, 1999 to June 30,
2000, in connection with our Stock Incentive Plan. In March 2000, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued FASB Interpretation No. 44,
"Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation," an
interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25 ("FIN 44"). Based upon the price of our
common stock at the close of business on June 30, 2000, we adjusted the
carrying value of the deferred tax asset that related to unvested shares in our
Stock Incentive Plan. FIN 44 became effective on July 1, 2000, and requires
that the deferred tax asset be determined by the compensation expense
recognized for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, at June 30, 2000, we
fixed the carrying value of our deferred tax asset for unvested shares in our
Stock Incentive Plan, based upon the price of our common stock at the close of
business that day. The 2001 and 2000 provision for income taxes included
federal, state, and local taxes at an effective tax rate of approximately 42%
and 43%, respectively.

2000 Compared with 1999

We reported net income before taxes of $246.9 million for the year ended
December 31, 2000, representing a decrease of $26.5 million or 9.7%, compared
to $273.4 million (as adjusted for the $150.1 million of Reorganization and IPO
Charges) for the year ended December 31, 1999. Our net revenues after interest
expense were $616.3 million for 2000, an increase of $43.4 million or 7.6%,
compared to 1999. Our operating results for 2000 reflect overall increases in
net revenues after interest expense in Private Asset Management and
Professional Securities Services, offset by a decrease in Mutual Fund and
Institutional. The net asset additions in Private Asset Management were offset
by the net withdrawals in our Mutual Fund and Institutional segment, virtually
all of which were in the lower fee institutional fixed-income area, while the
market depreciation in Private Asset Management was outweighed by market
appreciation in our Mutual Fund and Institutional segment.

Private Asset Management. Our net revenues after interest expense
increased 11.8% to $290.7 million for 2000, from $260.1 million for 1999. Our
investment advisory fees increased 15.0% to $191.4 million for 2000, from
$166.5 million for 1999, due to increases in average quarterly billable assets
under management from $19.5 billion in 1999 to $22.0 billion in 2000. Our
commissions increased 4.3% to $94.0 million for 2000, from $90.1 million for
1999, due to the increased volume of equity securities transactions. Our net
interest income increased 44.1% to $5.0 million for 2000, from $3.5 million in
1999, due primarily to higher client margin balances.

Mutual Fund and Institutional. Our net revenues after interest expense
decreased 4.1% to $224.1 million for 2000, from $233.6 million for 1999. Our
investment advisory and administrative fees decreased 2.3% to $207.0 million
for 2000, from $211.8 million for 1999, due primarily to a lower average asset
base in the first six months of 2000 relative to the comparable period in 1999.
Commissions decreased 21.3% or $4.6 million as a result of a decrease in
transaction volume.

Professional Securities Services. Our net revenues after interest expense
increased 30.1% to $105.0 million for 2000, from $80.7 million for 1999. Our
commission income increased 17.3% or $5.3 million as a result of increased
transaction volume. Principal transactions in securities increased 34.7%

to $10.7 million for 2000, from $7.9 million for 1999, primarily due to market
making activity. Clearance fees increased 22.1% to $13.5 million for 2000, from
$11.1 million for 1999, due to increased transaction volume from new and
existing clients, while net interest income increased 46.4% or $12.1 million,
primarily due to higher margin balances.

Corporate. Our net loss after interest expense increased 126.6% to $3.4
million in 2000, from $1.5 million in 1999, primarily as a result of a decrease
in value of the corporate investment in our mutual funds.

Operating Expenses. Our total operating expenses were $369.4 million in
2000, an increase of $69.9 million or 23.4%, compared to $299.5 million (as
adjusted for the $150.1 million of Reorganization and IPO Charges) in 1999.
Employee compensation and benefits increased to $245.4 million for 2000, up
$60.0 million or 32.4% from $185.4 million (as adjusted for the $139.9 million
of compensation expenses included in the Reorganization and IPO Charges) for
the same period in 1999. As a result of the Exchange, principals who previously
received distributions of capital began receiving compensation as employees.
Compensation that was not previously reported as such for employees who were
principals was $45.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. In addition,
salary and benefits and incentive compensation increased in 2000. Our
information technology expenses increased to $22.9 million for 2000, up $3.8
million or 19.6% from $19.2 million in 1999, due primarily to increases in
third party processing fees from increased securities transactions, as well as
increases in communication services and software licenses. Our rent and
occupancy costs increased to $17.8 million for 2000, up $2.5 million or 16.2%
from $15.3 million in 1999, primarily due to the rental of additional space in
the head office as well as the opening of three new branch offices in 2000,
coupled with the full year of rent expense for the branch offices opened during
1999. Our professional fees increased to $11.2 million for 2000, up $1.9
million or 20.8% from $9.3 million in 1999, primarily due to the impact of
outsourcing mutual fund administration coupled with an increase in employment
agency fees. Other expenses increased to $22.7 million for 2000, up $1.7
million or 8.3% from $20.9 million (as adjusted for the $10.1 million of other
expenses included in the Reorganization and IPO Charges) in 1999, due primarily
to increases in travel and entertainment and office expenses.

Taxes. Our taxes increased to $96.6 million for the year ended December
31, 2000, up $56.9 million from $39.7 million (as adjusted for the $51.9
million tax benefit resulting from the Reorganization and IPO Charges) for the
same period in 1999. Prior to the Exchange, Neuberger Berman, LLC did not pay
United States federal and state taxes because, as a limited liability company,
it was treated as a partnership for tax purposes, and our principals were taxed
on their proportionate share of Neuberger Berman, LLC's taxable income or loss.
Neuberger Berman Management Inc., as an S-Corporation, also did not pay United
States federal taxes prior to the Exchange, but was subject to certain state
and local taxes, and its shareholders were responsible for their own federal
income taxes. Effective with the Exchange, we became subject to federal, state
and local income taxes and we file a consolidated federal income tax return.
The 2000 provision for income taxes includes federal, state and local taxes at
our effective tax rate as a corporation of approximately 43%, less a financial
statement tax benefit of $9.8 million related to the change in the price of our
common stock from December 31, 1999 to June 30, 2000, in connection with our
Stock Incentive Plan. In March 2000, the FASB issued FIN 44, an interpretation
of APB Opinion No. 25. We adjusted, based upon the price of our common stock at
the close of business on June 30, 2000, the carrying value of the deferred tax
asset that related to unvested shares in the Stock Incentive Plan. FIN 44
became effective on July 1, 2000, and requires that the deferred tax asset be
determined by the compensation expense recognized for financial reporting
purposes. Accordingly, at June 30, 2000, we fixed the carrying value of our
deferred tax asset for unvested shares in our Stock Incentive Plan, based upon
the price of our common stock at the close of business that day.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our investment advisory business does not require us to maintain
significant capital balances. However, as a result of our broker-dealer
activities, our consolidated statements of financial condition include higher
levels of assets and liabilities than is typical for an investment adviser of
our size. Our broker-dealer activities provide financing, trade execution,
clearing, custody and global securities lending services for clients of the
Private Asset Management, Mutual Fund and Institutional and Professional
Securities Services segments.

Our financial condition is highly liquid with the significant majority of
our assets readily convertible to cash. Our receivable from and payable to
brokers, dealers and clearing organizations represent either current open
transactions that settle within a few days or the activity of global securities
lending that is collateralized and normally can be closed out within a few
days. Our receivable from and payable to clients arise in the normal course of
business in connection with cash and margin securities transactions. These
client receivables are secured by securities held as collateral.

Our cash flows are generally created as a result of the operating
activities of our three major business segments, with investment advisory and
administrative fees a significant contributor.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $222.0 million in the first quarter
of 2002, with $30.1 million used in operating activities, including the payment
of year-end bonuses. Cash of $7.0 million was used for investing activities,
primarily for leasehold improvements and purchases of technology related
equipment. Cash of $22.9 million was used in financing activities, reflecting
payments made for dividends and common stock repurchases.

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $36.0 million in the first quarter
of 2001, with $65.3 million provided by operating activities, including an
increase in our global securities lending activities, partially offset by the
payment of year-end bonuses. Cash of $18.9 million was used for investing
activities, reflecting payments for the acquisitions of Executive Monetary
Management, Inc. and the assets of Fasciano Company, Inc., as well as payments
for leasehold improvements and purchases of technology related equipment. Cash
of $10.4 million was used in financing activities, reflecting payments made for
dividends and common stock repurchases, partially offset by proceeds from the
issuance of common stock.

Cash and cash equivalents increased to $282.0 million in 2001, with $282.6
million provided by operating activities, including an increase in our global
securities lending activities. Cash of $64.0 million was used for investing
activities, primarily for the acquisitions of Executive Monetary Management,
Inc., the assets of Fasciano Company, Inc. and certain of the assets of Oscar
Capital Management, LLC. Cash of $24.7 million was used in financing
activities, reflecting payments made for dividends and common stock
repurchases, partially offset by net proceeds from the issuance of our
long-term debt.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $2.9 million in 2000, with $81.3
million provided by operating activities. Cash of $29.4 million was used for
investing activities, primarily for leasehold improvements and purchases of
technology related equipment. Cash of $54.9 million was used in financing
activities, reflecting payments made for dividends and common stock repurchases.

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $40.6 million in 1999, with $252.2
million provided by operations. Cash of $17.5 million was used for investing
activities, primarily for leasehold improvements and purchases of technology
related equipment. Cash of $194.0 million was used in financing activities
primarily due to payments for capital distributions to former principals prior
to our IPO, as well as dividends and common stock repurchases, partially offset
by proceeds from the issuance of common stock.

On May 4, 2001, in accordance with Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, we sold $175 million principal amount at maturity of zero-coupon
senior convertible notes due 2021, resulting in proceeds of approximately $151
million. The issue price represents a yield to maturity of 0.75% per year,
which is accounted for using the effective interest rate method. Each $1,000
principal amount at maturity of these convertible securities is convertible
into 13.8879 of our common stock upon the occurrence of any of the following
events:

. during any calendar quarter commencing after June 30, 2001, the closing
sale price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange for at
least 20 trading days in a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending
on the last trading day of the preceding calendar quarter is more than a
specified percentage, initially 120% and declining 0.12658% each quarter
thereafter, of the accreted conversion price per share of our common
stock on the last trading day of the preceding calendar quarter;

. we elect to redeem the convertible securities;

. we take certain corporate actions, such as the declaration of an
extraordinary dividend; or

. the credit rating by Standard & Poor's is below investment grade.

We may redeem the convertible securities for cash on or after May 4, 2006
at their accreted value. We may be required to repurchase the convertible
securities at the accreted value thereof, at the option of the holders on
November 4, 2002 and May 4 of 2004, 2006, 2011 and 2016 (the first put date was
May 4, 2002). We may choose to pay for such repurchases in cash or shares of
our common stock. We used the proceeds from this transaction for general
corporate purposes, including share repurchases. Prior to this transaction, we
received a BBB+ rating from Standard & Poor's. If we choose to access the
capital markets, we believe that this credit rating should facilitate our
ability to do so.

On May 2, 2002, we amended the terms of our convertible notes to permit the
holders, at their option, to cause us to repurchase the convertible securities
on November 4, 2002, at their then accreted value of $870.67 per $1,000
principal amount at maturity. We also announced that each holder electing not
to require us to repurchase our convertible securities as of May 4, 2002, would
receive a one-time payment of $4.34 for every $1,000 aggregate principal amount
at maturity of the convertible securities held. As of the close of business May
3, 2002, holders of approximately 5% or $8.7 million principal amount at
maturity of the convertible securities exercised their option to cause us to
repurchase their convertible securities. We paid $7.6 million for these
repurchases in cash on May 6, 2002. On May 8, 2002, we made a one-time payment
of $4.34 for every $1,000 aggregate principal amount at maturity to each holder
of our convertible securities as of the close of business on May 7, 2002.

It is our policy to continuously monitor and evaluate the adequacy of our
capital. We have consistently maintained net capital in excess of the
regulatory requirements for broker-dealers prescribed by the SEC and other
regulatory authorities. At March 31, 2002, our regulatory net capital exceeded
the minimum requirement by approximately $200 million. The SEC's Uniform Net
Capital Rule 15c3-1 imposes certain requirements that may have the effect of
prohibiting a broker-dealer from distributing or withdrawing capital and
requiring prior notice to the SEC for certain withdrawals of capital. In
addition, the debt covenants related to Neuberger Berman, LLC's $35 million
outstanding subordinated note and $100 million committed line of credit include
certain covenants that limit the percentage by which the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of subordinated liabilities exceeds total regulatory capital
and impose a dollar amount below which total ownership equity cannot fall. We
believe that our cash flows from operations and existing committed and
uncommitted lines of credit will be more than adequate to meet our anticipated
capital requirements and debt and other obligations as they come due.

Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of our common stock in
the open market and/or private purchases. The acquired shares may be used for
corporate purposes, including shares issued to employees under our employee
stock purchase plans. Since the inception of our common stock repurchase
program, we have repurchased 5,946,595 shares of common stock for
$220.1 million, including 2,400,900 shares which were repurchased from a
limited number of former principals in a transaction that followed the
secondary offering in July 2001. We used cash flows from operations and the
proceeds from our convertible notes offering to fund the purchases of these
shares. As of March 31, 2002, authorizations for the repurchase of up to $29.9
million of our common stock remained in effect. On April 22, 2002, our Board of
Directors approved a $75 million increase to the existing authorization.

Looking Ahead

During the year ending December 31, 2002, we intend to continue to
implement our strategic plan to grow our asset management business. We plan to
continue to take advantage of the growth opportunities in the high net worth
market by utilizing our expanded national sales force and by aggressively
pursuing additional investment management teams. In addition to adding
investment management teams, we will continue to evaluate, where appropriate,
strategic acquisitions of, or joint ventures with, companies that would add new
product and services offerings, investment capabilities or distribution
channels.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our risk management policies and procedures have been established to
identify, monitor and manage risk continuously. The major types of risk that we
face include credit risk and market risk.

Credit risk is the potential for loss due to a client or counterparty
failing to perform its contractual obligations. In order to mitigate risk, our
policy is to continuously monitor our exposure to market and counterparty risk
through the use of a variety of credit exposure, position and financial
reporting and control procedures. In addition, we have a policy of reviewing
the credit standing, where applicable, of each broker-dealer, client and other
counterparty with which we conduct business. We monitor the market value of
collateral, including margin loans to our clients, and request and receive
additional collateral when required.

A significant portion of our revenues is based upon the market value of
assets under management. Accordingly, a decline in the prices of securities
generally, or client withdrawals of assets under management, may cause our
revenues and income to decline.

Interest rate risk is the possibility of a loss in the value of financial
instruments from changes in interest rates. Our primary exposure to interest
rate risk arises from our interest earning assets (mainly securities purchased
under agreements to resell and receivables from brokers, dealers and clearing
organizations) and funding sources (bank loans, subordinated liabilities and
payables to brokers, dealers and clearing organizations).

Equity price risk generally means the risk of loss that may result from the
potential change in the value of a financial instrument as a result of absolute
and relative price movements, price volatility or changes in liquidity, over
which we have no control.

Our securities owned at March 31, 2002 are primarily comprised of $336.4
million of U.S. Treasury and Agency securities, of which $328.9 million is
comprised of U.S. Treasury bills; $51.8 million of municipal revenue bonds; a
$20.6 million investment in one of our mutual funds, the Limited

Maturity Bond Fund; $2.8 million of an investment in an exchange traded
preferred security; and $1.3 million related to our market making activity. The
municipal revenue bonds, which are tax advantageous, trade at par and contain
variable rates of interest that generally reset monthly, at which time they can
be put back to the dealer. The bonds are rated in one of the two highest
categories by at least one but generally two of three rating agencies, Standard
& Poor's, Moody's Investors Services and Fitch Ratings. The Limited Maturity
Bond Fund, an open-ended fund with daily redemption characteristics, is
organized under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and invests in limited
maturity bonds, seeking the highest available current income consistent with
liquidity and low risk to principal. Our market making activities expose our
capital to potential equity price risk. To mitigate this risk, we impose strict
investment limits on both the trading desk and individual traders.

As part of our prime brokerage business, we write covered over-the-counter
put options on listed equity securities with certain of our prime brokerage
clients. Market risk is mitigated as the options are generally deep in the
money and covered by an equivalent number of securities sold but not yet
purchased. At March 31, 2002, the notional value of such options and market
value of securities sold were approximately $5.5 million and $4.3 million,
respectively and are included in securities sold but not yet purchased.

BUSINESS

Overview

We were founded in 1939 to be a premier provider of investment products and
services to high net worth individuals. We have built upon the qualities that
have made us successful in the high net worth market to establish a strong
presence in the mutual fund and institutional marketplaces, and to provide
estate planning and trust services through our National and Delaware trust
companies. Our clients include individuals, institutions, corporations, pension
funds, foundations and endowments.

2001 in Review

Despite a highly challenging market environment and the tragic events of
September 11th, we successfully pursued our strategies of capitalizing on
opportunities in the growing high net worth business; expanding our mutual fund
distribution capabilities; and growing our Professional Securities Services
business while maintaining a watchful eye on investment performance and client
service.

In the first quarter of 2001, we completed a number of initiatives that
were begun or announced in 2000, including the addition of three experienced
money management teams. At December 31, 2001, assets under management related
to these money manager liftouts totaled approximately $1.5 billion.

We received a national bank charter in January 2001, and created Neuberger
Berman Trust Company, N.A., which is headquartered in Seattle, Washington.
During 2001, we hired highly experienced senior trust executives and
reorganized the management of the Trust Companies to capitalize on these
executives' skills and relationships.

In February 2001, we completed the acquisition of Executive Monetary
Management, Inc. ("EMM"), a wealth management firm for upper echelon high net
worth clients. Effective with the closing of the transaction, EMM became a
wholly owned subsidiary of Neuberger Berman Inc. At December 31, 2001, clients
for whom EMM performs various services had in the aggregate approximately $1.8
billion of investable assets. EMM has a strong following among senior
executives and leaders within the entertainment, finance and legal communities.
EMM has strengthened our presence in the highly specialized market of upper
echelon wealth, offering new opportunities for cross-selling products and
services.

During March 2001, we completed the acquisition of the assets of Fasciano
Company, Inc., an investment manager, which, through Michael Fasciano, managed
the Fasciano Fund, a predecessor of Neuberger Berman Fasciano Fund, a small-cap
blend mutual fund. The Neuberger Berman Fasciano Fund had approximately $200
million in assets under management at December 31, 2001.

In November 2001, we acquired certain of the assets of Oscar Capital
Management, LLC ("Oscar"), which resulted in approximately $800 million in
assets under management transferring to Neuberger Berman at closing. These
assets under management, which at December 31, 2001, were valued at
approximately $900 million, are primarily comprised of high net worth separate
accounts and investment partnerships. All four senior partners of Oscar joined
Neuberger Berman as Managing Directors in our Private Asset Management Group.

During 2001, we continued to expand our national presence with the opening
of a new sales office in Washington, D.C. We increased our national sales force
of Client Consultants, from 38 professionals at the end of 2000 to 40 as of
December 31, 2001. In 2001, this national sales force generated approximately
$1.7 billion in new assets under management.

Asset Management and Investor-Related Trends

Managing wealth is one of the fastest growing segments of the financial
services industry. According to the Merrill Lynch/Gemini Consulting World
Wealth Report 2002, the high net worth market in North America, defined as
individuals with more than $1 million in liquid financial assets, totaled $7.6
trillion in 2001 and is expected to increase to $11.2 trillion by year end
2006, which implies an annual compound growth rate of 8.1%.

We believe the following factors impacting investor behavior will be key
drivers of this growth:

. Current market volatility has led self-directed individuals to an
increased appreciation of the value of professional investment advice.

. High net worth clients are expanding their requirements of financial
service firms to provide comprehensive wealth management services
including objective investment policy design, manager selection and
oversight, and family office administration in addition to investment
advice.

. As affluent baby boomers age, they have an increasing awareness of the
need to manage and preserve wealth, as well as to provide for the future
through appropriate estate planning for the transfer of wealth across
generations.

. The public has become increasingly sophisticated due to the vast amount
of investment-related information that is now available through the media
and the Internet. As investors become more adept at employing new
information technologies, they are requiring financial service providers
to create value added services such as user friendly tools that
facilitate an efficient and organized window to this wealth of
information as well as real-time access to their personal account
information.

In addition to these investor-related trends, we have observed the
following changes affecting the general profile of the financial services
industry in the United States:

. The industry is refocusing its distribution strategies from a
transactional orientation to one of cultivating client relationships
built around fee-based products and services.

. Recently enacted tax legislation, which allows for increased
contributions to retirement accounts, will accelerate the growth of
retirement savings. In addition, investing these assets will emphasize
the need for a wide range of money management products to be distributed
through broad and varied distribution channels.

. As a result of increased access to information once generally limited to
the financial professional, clients now demand portfolio diversification
and asset allocation, which until

recently were considered an option, not an imperative. This has led many
firms to embrace open architecture structures such as wrap products that
allow diversification through customized asset allocation models that are
then realized through "best of breed" products. Moreover, both individual
and institutional investors are no longer satisfied with research with an
underlying bias. We believe that they want objective research that is not
compromised by other institutional relationships.

. Technology and the increasingly global outlook of world economies have
created opportunities to both transact business and form strategic
alliances across borders with growing ease. As this globalization
evolves, more clients are embracing the advice of investment
professionals to include global and international investments as part of
a sound diversified portfolio.

We believe we are well positioned to meet investor expectations and deliver
the products and services that will differentiate us in the marketplace and
enable us to capitalize on the potential growth in assets under management
these trends may yield.

Our Strategy

Management, Inc., acquired in February 2001, specializes in wealth
management by serving as an independent counselor to upper echelon high
net worth clients to assist them in preserving and enhancing their
financial position. As of March 31, 2002, clients for whom Executive
Monetary Management performs various services had approximately $1.8
billion of investable assets.

. Build Wrap Fee Program Participation. We seek to continue to broaden our
participation in wrap programs sponsored by third party banks and
brokerages, as well as to increase the variety of our investment styles
available through this distribution channel. We manage assets for 13
sponsors of wrap fee programs, including three of the four largest
programs. We believe that wrap fee programs represent significant asset
growth opportunities.

. Further Diversify Product and Service Offerings. We continue to enhance
our existing product offerings through the internal development or
acquisition of new investment capabilities. In the past, we have relied
primarily on our domestic equity products. Currently, we offer equity,
international equity, balanced, domestic and international fixed income
and money market products. Historically, we have primarily followed the
value style of investing, but we now have portfolio managers who follow
growth or blended styles of investing. In May 2002, we launched the
Neuberger Berman Real Estate Fund, which is managed by a team of REIT
specialists who joined the firm in January 2002. Additionally, we have
entered into an agreement that is expected to result in a team of high
yield fixed income professionals joining Neuberger Berman during the
third quarter of 2002, which we anticipate will enhance our current high
yield fixed income offerings. We believe a broader array of products will
increase our ability to grow assets under management by attracting new
clients and through providing existing clients with a greater variety of
investment options.

. Increase Research Sales. Our dedicated research group provides its
independent research reports to our Private Asset Management and Mutual
Fund and Institutional businesses and makes these reports available to
third-party investment managers, who generally place trades through us if
they decide to buy or sell securities based upon our research. We believe
that our long-standing dedication to unbiased fundamental research
distinguishes us from many of our competitors.

Business Segments

Our principal businesses include:

. Private Asset Management

. Mutual Fund and Institutional

. Professional Securities Services

A fourth segment, "Corporate," reflects certain corporate results that are
not directly related to the day-to-day operations of our principal business.

We derive our revenues primarily from investment advisory and
administrative fees, which are based on assets under management. Our fee
revenue is supplemented by commissions and by income from our Professional
Securities Services segment. We believe our business has attractive margins for
several reasons:

. the majority of our assets under management are held in equity accounts,
which carry higher fees than fixed-income accounts;

. 62% of our pre-tax earnings in 2001 and 66% of our pre-tax earnings in
the first quarter of 2002 were derived from our higher-margin Private
Asset Management segment; and

. we have effectively leveraged our franchise and infrastructure to enhance
profitability by developing complementary businesses such as
correspondent clearing and prime brokerage services.

Private Asset Management

Our Private Asset Management segment provides customized discretionary
investment management services for high net worth individuals, families and
smaller institutions. It represented 48% of net revenues after interest expense
in 2001 and 51% of net revenues after interest expense in the first quarter of
2002.

Assets under management in this segment were approximately $25.7 billion as
of March 31, 2002, including assets managed for clients of the Trust Companies.
Net revenues after interest expense for 2001 were $295.7 million. This included
$88.2 million in commission revenue, derived principally from listed equity
trades executed as broker, on behalf of clients. Net revenues after interest
expense for the first quarter of 2002 were $81.5 million, including $26.0
million in commission revenue. In this segment, we managed approximately 16,600
accounts, through 6,500 relationships, with an average relationship size of
$3.9 million, as of March 31, 2002.

Private Asset Management has three components:

. Money Management

. Advisory Services

. Trust Services

Money Management. Since our founding, we have specialized in personalized
money management for high net worth investors. Our mission is to provide our
clients with the highest caliber investment expertise, supported by outstanding
personal service. Unlike many investment firms, we do not assign clients to a
model portfolio. We tailor each client's portfolio individually, based on
investment objectives, planning needs, and risk tolerance. We believe this
strategy is best for clients, and it also increases our ability to attract
experienced, talented money managers. Our Private Asset Management money
managers have, on average, more than 25 years of industry experience, and each
is free to pursue his or her investment style, subject to compliance oversight.
The Private Asset Management segment has enjoyed long-term client loyalty,
sometimes spanning several generations.

Our money managers use a broad spectrum of investment styles, including
growth and value for equities, fixed-income and international. They accommodate
clients with broadly different objectives or special needs, such as investment
restrictions or large holdings of stock options. As of March 31, 2002, we had
68 money managers in our Private Asset Management segment working in 30 teams.

We vigorously seek to expand our assets under management through internal
growth and new clients, as well as through the hiring of experienced money
management teams (liftouts) and acquisitions of money management firms. We
maintain a disciplined strategy for liftouts and acquisitions based on certain
criteria that require that liftouts and acquisitions:

. be accretive to earnings;

. be consistent with our overall strategy; and

. involve individuals who fit the Neuberger Berman culture in terms of
client focus, integrity and dedication to investment excellence.

We believe that by adhering to these criteria the result is stronger, more
stable growth. Our liftout and acquisition strategy continued in 2001 with
liftouts of several senior money management teams and the acquisition of
certain of the assets of Oscar.

In 2001, we continued to enhance the products and services we offer to our
Private Asset Management clients. We introduced a cash management service and
certain alternative investment products along with electronic account access
and electronic trade confirmations. Additionally, we also enhanced our website.
We believe these products and services improve our clients' experience with us,
helping us to retain client relationships and to remain competitive with other
financial services firms. We continue to explore and invest in products and
services that support our mission of providing the highest caliber investment
expertise with outstanding personal service.

Advisory Services. We have a national sales force, which is composed of
Client Consultants. It is dedicated to growing and supporting our Private Asset
Management segment, including our money managers and Trust Companies. Our
Client Consultants attract new clients and work with existing clients as
liaisons to our money managers. In 2001, we continued to increase the number of
our Client Consultants, as well as their geographic penetration, focusing on
cities in which U.S. wealth is concentrated. As of March 31, 2002, our Private
Asset Management Advisory Services group included 40 professionals supported by
28 client service administrators, working in New York and regional offices in
Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, Philadelphia,
San Francisco, Tampa, Washington, D.C. and West Palm Beach.

Our Client Consultants are highly trained professionals with average
industry experience of approximately 14 years. They work closely with our
clients to develop customized asset allocation, trust services and estate and
tax planning strategies. Our Client Consultants also frequently work with our
clients' accountants and attorneys as part of a financial advisory team, and
they cultivate relationships with these professional advisors. New assets
generated by our national sales force grew from $807 million in 2000 to
approximately $1.7 billion in 2001. For the first quarter of 2002, our sales
force added $473 million in new assets under management.

Trust Services. The Private Asset Management segment offers its clients a
wide array of trust services provided by our Trust Companies, integrating our
investment management expertise with comprehensive, customized fiduciary
services designed to assist clients build and protect wealth across generations.

In January 2001, we received a national bank charter and established
Neuberger Berman Trust Company, N. A., which we believe, along with Neuberger
Berman Trust Company of Delaware, enhances our ability to design creative
client solutions, and helps us retain client assets across generations. We
provide comprehensive family wealth planning through an integrated approach to
tax planning, fiduciary services, investment policy design and oversight.
Working closely with family advisors and coordinating with EMM, our trust
company executives strive to optimize wealth retention plans through flexible
and customized solutions, integrating the money management expertise of
Neuberger Berman, as appropriate. We believe these strengths afford us with a
unique competitive advantage that is already resulting in large new client
relationships. In 2001, the average relationship size of Trust Company clients
served by our Client Consultants was over 50% greater than the average Private
Asset Management relationship size.

We believe that the combination of our money management expertise, national
trust powers and wealth management services, and continuing investments in our
technological infrastructure has strengthened our ability to attract new
clients of larger size, to retain existing clients' assets across generations,
and to cross-sell products and services.

Mutual Fund and Institutional

Despite the challenging market conditions of 2001, we achieved a positive
net cash inflow of $1.8 billion, which includes approximately $700 million
related to the addition of a money management team and the acquisition of the
assets of Fasciano Company, Inc., in our Mutual Fund and Institutional segment.
Assets under management in this segment increased by $1.1 billion to
approximately $34.0 billion as of December 31, 2001. Our Mutual Fund and
Sub-Advised Account business and our Consultant Services Group business each
contributed $1.1 billion in positive net cash flow, both delivering markedly
stronger net cash flow activity compared to the previous year. These positive
net cash inflows were partially offset by net cash outflows of $0.4 billion in
our Institutional Separate Accounts business.

The mutual funds and separate accounts in this segment cover a broad
spectrum of asset types, investment styles and market capitalization ranges.
Our equity products include large-cap, mid-cap and small-cap equity offerings,
generally incorporating value, growth and blend investment styles as well as
international and socially responsive products. Our fixed income products
include domestic taxable and tax-exempt offerings of various duration, as well
as global portfolios. We also offer balanced portfolios and money market
products. We make our funds available directly to investors, without a sales
load, and through third parties and sub-advisory relationships. We are actively
seeking opportunities to expand into new distribution channels. For example, we
recently added a team of experienced professionals to initiate an institutional
real estate securities effort.

Mutual Fund and Institutional has three components:

. Mutual Fund and Sub-Advised Accounts

. Institutional Separate Accounts (Equity and Fixed-Income)

. Consultant Services Group (Wrap accounts)

Mutual Fund and Sub-Advised Accounts. As of March 31, 2002, we managed a
total of $20.8 billion in assets in Mutual Funds and Sub-Advised Accounts. As a
result of the completion in February 2001 of the reorganization of the
operational structure of our Funds, as of year-end 2001, we managed 29 mutual
funds (the "Fund(s)") as both adviser and sub-adviser. We also acted as
sub-adviser for 16 additional mutual funds for non-affiliated financial
services companies. Net revenues after interest expense were $157.7 million in
2001 and $40.2 million in the first quarter of 2002, consisting primarily of
investment advisory and administrative fees and commissions. In addition to
advisory and sub-advisory fees, we also derive revenues from administrative and
service fees for accounting services, general mutual fund administration (such
as coordinating board meetings, compliance programs and prospectuses, annual
and semi-annual reports) and shareholder services. Approximately 52% of the
commissions paid by the Funds in 2001 were paid to Neuberger Berman, LLC for
executing listed equity trades as broker.

In the first quarter of 2001, we completed the acquisition of the assets of
Fasciano Company, Inc. In connection with that acquisition we established the
Neuberger Berman Fasciano Fund, a small-cap blend mutual fund, with
approximately $236 million in assets under management at March 31, 2002. The
small-cap blend strategy broadens our mutual fund product line by filling the
"style box" categories between Genesis Fund, a small-cap value fund, and
Millennium Fund, our small-cap growth fund. In December 2001, exceptional
growth of assets in the Genesis Fund caused us to close the fund to new
investors, and we anticipate that the Fasciano Fund may provide an alternative
to investors interested in small-cap investment opportunities.

As of March 31, 2002, we offered 19 of our Funds directly to the public
with no sales charge. These cover all capitalization ranges, and generally
include growth, value and blend investment styles, as well as international,
socially responsive and fixed-income portfolios. We managed assets in
direct-sold no load mutual funds that totaled $11.6 billion at March 31, 2002.
On May 1, 2002, we launched the Neuberger Berman Real Estate Fund, which is
managed by a team of REIT specialists who joined the firm earlier in 2002.

We also make our Funds available through mutual fund supermarkets,
broker-dealers, banks and through our internet site, where mutual fund
investors can access account information and buy, sell and exchange Fund
shares. The site also has Fund prospectuses and applications, daily share
prices and performance, as well as articles and educational materials.

Strategic alliances are an increasingly important distribution channel. As
of March 31, 2002, we had alliances with 96 administrators of defined
contribution plans (such as 401(k), 403(b) and

nonqualified deferred compensation plans). These alliances allow us, as
investment adviser, and these administrators, as recordkeepers and plan
participant service providers, to perform the task each of us is best suited to
carry out. Defined contribution plan assets under management in our Funds were
$4.0 billion at March 31, 2002.

We also had relationships with 45 insurance companies that offer variable
annuity and variable life insurance products that may be invested, at the
direction of policy holders, in certain of our Funds. As of March 31, 2002,
assets under management in our Mutual Fund and Sub-Advised Accounts business
included $2.4 billion in assets related to these insurance products.

In addition, assets under management in the 16 sub-advised funds for
non-affiliated financial services companies were $2.8 billion at March 31,
2002. Our continuing efforts to expand this business have been successful, and
we believe we have excellent relationships with some of the leading financial
services companies.

We also make available mutual fund investment advisory services through our
Advisory Services business. Advisory Services offers professional portfolio
management and consolidated recordkeeping services for mutual fund investors
seeking to build and monitor a customized portfolio of mutual funds from
well-known fund groups, including our own Funds and mutual funds managed by
third parties. As of March 31, 2002, we also had three "private-label"
arrangements in which financial advisory companies marketed our Advisory
Services product under another name with Neuberger Berman as the sub-adviser.

When third parties make our products available to their clients, we
generally pay the third parties for recordkeeping, sub-accounting or other
services that they perform with respect to assets that are invested, either
directly or indirectly, in the Funds.

Institutional Separate Accounts (Equity and Fixed-Income). As of March 31,
2002, we managed $11.8 billion of institutional separate account assets. While
our Institutional Separate Accounts business experienced net cash outflows of
approximately $400 million in 2001 (primarily from fixed-income accounts) this
marked a sharp improvement over more significant net cash outflows reported
during the prior year. Net revenues after interest expense were $57.1 million
in 2001 and $13.8 million in the first quarter of 2002, consisting primarily of
investment advisory fees and commissions.

We manage a range of domestic, international and global equity, balanced,
fixed-income and cash management portfolios for approximately 250 client
relationships. Some of our institutional separate account clients include:
defined benefit and defined contribution plans for corporations and
municipalities, Taft-Hartley plans, insurance companies, endowments and
foundations, mutual funds sponsored by third parties and hospital and health
care organizations.

We offer 13 different equity investment styles to institutional investors,
including small-, small/mid-, mid- and large-capitalization value and growth,
as well as socially responsive, technology, international, global and emerging
market portfolios. Our fixed-income separate account strategies include cash
management, limited maturity, high yield, municipal, broad investment grade,
opportunistic core and international. As bond managers, we are value oriented
and use sector rotation and security selection to earn incremental yield. We
use active duration management and volatility analysis to control risk, and,
depending on market conditions, to protect principal or add capital
appreciation.

Consultant Services Group (Wrap Accounts). As of March 31, 2002, we
managed $3.5 billion of wrap account assets. Our assets under management in
wrap accounts grew strongly in 2001, from $1.8 billion at December 31, 2000 to
$3.0 billion at December 31, 2001, in 13 wrap account

programs sponsored by third party banks and brokerage firms. We attribute this
growth to a combination of strong product performance, excellent customer
support, and the continued popularity of this product with investors and
financial intermediaries. Wrap account programs, which are designed to meet the
needs of individuals and smaller institutions, offer comprehensive investment
management services under a single fee structure covering all charges,
including investment management, brokerage, custody, recordkeeping and
reporting. Net revenues after interest expense were $8.9 million in 2001 and
$2.8 million in the first quarter of 2002, consisting primarily of investment
advisory fees.

We have relationships with three of the four largest sponsors of separate
account wrap programs. For separate account wrap programs we provide portfolio
management in a variety of investment styles, including value, growth, blend
and international, in small-, mid- and large-capitalization stocks. We believe
the wrap account product will continue to grow in importance as a distribution
channel for our money management expertise. We intend to keep seeking new
relationships, as well as to increase the variety of investment styles that we
offer through this channel. In addition to separate account wrap programs, some
of the sponsors also offer Mutual Fund wrap programs in which we participate.

Professional Securities Services

Our Professional Securities Services segment leverages our asset management
infrastructure to provide services to the professional investment community and
upper echelon high net worth clients.

Clients of our Professional Securities Service segment call upon us for
trade execution, clearing, custody, margin financing, portfolio reporting and
trust services. We provide our research to about 200 outside investment
managers. We also act as market maker for approximately 170 securities traded
primarily on the Nasdaq National Market System. Because these services are
based upon the capabilities and resources developed for our asset management
businesses, we generally can provide these services at a modest incremental
cost. Commissions, clearance fees and net interest income provide a significant
portion of this segment's revenues. Net revenues after interest expense were
$98.9 million in 2001 and $22.7 million in the first quarter of 2002.

Professional Securities Services has four components:

. Professional Investor Clearing Services

. Wealth Management Services

. Research Sales

. Other Activities

Professional Investor Clearing Services. We provide prime brokerage
services to 64 private investment partnerships, registered investment advisers
and family offices. We provide correspondent clearing services to 20
introducing brokers. These services include trade execution, custody, clearance
and settlement, margin financing and the borrowing of securities to meet short
sale obligations and portfolio reporting. In some instances, we provide our
clients with the use of a fully equipped office facility. A dedicated sales
team markets these services directly and through advertising in trade
publications. We also seek to cross-sell our other services to these clients,
including research sales and trust and custody services. Net revenues after
interest expense were $48.2 million in 2001 and $10.0 million in the first
quarter of 2002, consisting primarily of commissions, clearance fees and net
interest income.

Wealth Management Services. The Wealth Management Services business
provides financial advice independent of our other business segments, through
the Trust Companies and EMM. The services offered to high net worth
individuals, wealthy families and family offices include:

. Wealth Management, Retirement, Estate and Gift Tax Planning

. Trust Administration, Agency and Custody Services

. Investment Policy Design, Manager Selection and Oversight

. Executor Services

. Charitable Gift Planning and Administration

. Retirement Plan and IRA Administration

Our Trust Companies provide comprehensive wealth planning services to high
net worth individuals and families in addition to personal fiduciary,
administrative, trustee and executor services. Our team of trust professionals
works closely with clients and their advisors to customize and implement plans
designed with an integrated approach to investment management and estate and
tax planning and administration, with the goal of providing continuity and
consistency of performance over time.

Additional services offered to business owners include employee benefit
plan and ESOP design, management and administrative services. We also furnish
investment and administration services for charities' planned giving programs.
All clients can also benefit from the Trust Companies' ability to deliver
multi-manager custody and consolidated performance and risk management
oversight and reporting.

To further enhance our comprehensive wealth management capabilities, we
acquired EMM in the first quarter of 2001. EMM acts as an independent counselor
to ultra affluent clients to assist them in preserving and enhancing their
financial position. Among its personal and professional management services,
EMM provides: comprehensive tax planning and administration; estate, trust and
gift planning strategy; family office management; contract structuring and
analysis; and insurance planning. As do the Trust Companies, EMM provides
independent investment advisory services, which include: asset allocation;
objective investment manager selection among a wide array of asset managers
which may include Neuberger Berman; and performance monitoring.

We believe that the sophisticated wealth management advisory expertise
provided by EMM and our Trust Companies enhances our ability to attract new
clients with substantial assets, retain existing clients' assets, and
cross-sell Neuberger Berman's products and services. Net revenues after
interest expense provided by our Wealth Management Services were $6.1 million
in 2001 and $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2002, consisting primarily of
investment advisory fees.

Research Sales. Our centralized research department regularly prepares and
updates research reports for our Private Asset Management and Mutual Fund and
Institutional businesses. As an independent asset manager, the primary goal of
our research capability is to advance the creative sharing of ideas among our
portfolio managers. Ten sales professionals in the research sales group also
make these research reports available to approximately 200 third-party
investment managers. If these third-party managers decide to buy or sell
securities based on this research, they generally place their trades through
us, although they have no obligation to do so. The research sales group also
includes eight traders who execute these brokerage transactions. Through our
corporate relationships, we participate as part of selling groups in public
offerings of securities (we do not participate in such offerings, however, for
our advisory clients). Net revenues after interest expense were $21.9 million
in 2001 and $6.6 million in the first quarter of 2002, consisting primarily of
commissions.

Other Activities. Professional Securities Services also includes market
making activities, global securities lending, custody and recordkeeping
services and treasury management. We act as market maker for approximately 170
securities traded primarily on the Nasdaq National Market System, buying or
selling such securities as principal. We impose strict limits on the trading
desk and the individual traders to control our risk. We provide custody and
recordkeeping services to clients of our Trust Companies. We also generate net
interest income by managing cash available as a result of our broker-dealer
activities. Net revenues after interest expense were $22.7 million in 2001 and
$3.9 million in the first quarter of 2002, consisting primarily of principal
transactions in securities and net interest income.

Investment Process and Research

Our portfolio managers generally base their decisions on fundamental
research, attempting to make knowledgeable judgments about the investment
merits of industry groups and specific companies. Our centralized research
department supports all of our investment professionals. Organized primarily by
industry, our securities analysts are responsible for understanding
developments within the companies and industries they follow. To do this, they
meet with senior management of companies they follow and interview customers
and competitors of those companies. In some cases, they employ specialized
consultants and develop earnings and cash flow estimates. At present, there are
14 analysts in the research department, supported by 19 associate analysts.
They follow approximately 500 companies.

In addition to our centralized research department, many of our investment
groups employ dedicated analysts who focus on securities of particular interest
to their specific investment approach. Their research is augmented by an
established program of on-site visits between our portfolio managers and
analysts and the senior management teams of corporations. Hundreds of such
meetings occurred in 2001. They provide the portfolio managers and analysts
with valuable insight and perspective into a company's business, management
strategy and financial prospects. We believe that our long-standing dedication
to unbiased, fundamental research distinguishes us from many of our
competitors. Ultimately, each money manager is responsible for stock selection,
tax sensitivity and the timing of purchases and sales of securities. This
permits the manager to adhere to his or her investment style and to respond
quickly to market opportunities or risks. This flexibility allows our money
managers to do what they believe is best for our clients, without the
administrative delays of a system where an investment committee dictates
security selection.

Technology Initiatives

Technology is critical to our mission of superior investment performance
and excellent customer service. We continue to invest in technology, both to
enhance our clients' experience with us and to achieve operating cost savings.

In 2001, we launched a new website with an architecture that provides a
customized experience for different types of users. The site targets both
existing clients and prospects for all of our core businesses, as well as the
financial advisors and other intermediaries who work with our clients'
accounts. The unifying theme of the site is our commitment to personalized
investing and excellent customer service. The site encourages clients to access
their account records and perform transactions with us electronically.

Creative and appropriate uses of technology provide our clients with
greater convenience in accessing their records or communicating with us. It can
also reduce our operating costs by converting certain high-cost procedures,
such as the mailing of compliance materials, into electronic delivery. In 2001
we launched several programs with these benefits in mind, including electronic
trade confirmation and electronic delivery of certain compliance material.

the list of selling stockholders or the shares that may be offered and sold.

For purposes of this table, "beneficial ownership" is determined in

to which a person or group is deemed to have "beneficial ownership" of any
shares of common stock that such person has the right to acquire within 60 days
after the date of this prospectus. For purposes of computing the percentage of
outstanding shares of common stock held by each person or group of persons
named below, any shares which such person or persons has the right to acquire
within 60 days after the date of this prospectus are deemed to be outstanding
but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the
percentage ownership of any other person.

The 3,816,926 shares of common stock that may be offered and sold by our
former principals and their affiliates under this prospectus are subject to
the transfer restrictions contained in the Stockholders Agreement.
Accordingly, these shares cannot be offered or sold before January 1, 2003
unless our Board of Directors or its designee waives these restrictions.
Under the Stockholders Agreement, each such former principal continuing in
Neuberger Berman's employ and his or her affiliates has agreed to vote his,
her or its shares in accordance with a majority of the shares held by all
former principals and affiliates who are subject to the Stockholders
Agreement voting in a preliminary vote.

The number of shares offered under this prospectus by any selling
stockholder other than the Employee Trust may be increased. However, the
aggregate number of shares offered by the former principals or their
affiliates specifically identified in this table and by any other former
principals and their affiliates named in any prospectus supplement will not
exceed 3,816,926 shares.

(16)The Employee Trust holds these shares for participants, which include
employees of Neuberger Berman, in our Employee Defined Contribution Stock
Incentive Plan. The Employee Trust is the holder of record of these shares,
and the trustee votes the shares of the Employee Trust in accordance with
the instructions of the participants to whom shares have been allocated.
The trustee does not have dispositive power with respect to shares held in
any participant's stock account. The right of a participant to receive
shares allocated to his or her account generally becomes vested, and the
shares become distributable to the participant, in three equal installments
on the second, third and fourth anniversaries of the allocation to the
participant, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.

The Employee Trust may offer and sell 1,183,074 shares of our common stock
on behalf of 791 employees in accordance with such employees' instructions
to the trustee. The net proceeds from any sale of such shares will be
distributed to the plan participants and/or applied to pay applicable
withholding taxes. A total of 1,856,230 shares held by the Employee Trust
were scheduled to vest and become distributable to plan participants in
October 2002. All of the 1,183,074 shares of common stock held by the
Employee Trust and covered by this prospectus are scheduled to vest in
October 2002 and may not be sold prior to the vesting date unless Neuberger
Berman accelerates the vesting of such shares. Neuberger Berman may
accelerate the vesting of such shares to permit their sale in an offering
prior to October 2002.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following description of our capital stock does not purport to be
complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to applicable Delaware
law and to the provisions of our certificate of incorporation and by-laws.
Copies of the forms of certificate of incorporation and by-laws have been
incorporated by reference as exhibits to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
calendar year ended December 31, 2001.

Our authorized capital stock consists of 255,000,000 shares, each with a
par value of $.01 per share, of which:

. 250,000,000 are designated as common stock; and

. 5,000,000 are designated as preferred stock.

Common Stock

As of June 30, 2002, there were 70,164,694 shares of common stock
outstanding.

Voting Rights

Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote per share on all
matters to be voted on by stockholders. Holders of common stock are not
entitled to any cumulative voting rights.

Dividend Rights

Subject to the preferential rights of any holders of any outstanding series
of preferred stock and restrictions set forth in our credit facilities and
restrictions, if any, imposed by other indebtedness outstanding from time to
time, the holders of common stock will be entitled to such dividends and
distributions, whether payable in cash or otherwise, as may be declared from
time to time by our Board of Directors from legally available funds. See "Price
Range of our Common Stock and Dividends."

Other Rights

Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of shares of
common stock would be entitled to share pro rata in the distribution of all of
our assets remaining available for distribution after satisfaction of all of
our liabilities and the payment of the liquidation preference of any
outstanding preferred stock. The holders of common stock have no preemptive or
other subscription rights to purchase shares of common stock, nor are they
entitled to the benefits of any sinking fund provisions. No share of common
stock issued in connection with or outstanding prior to the offerings is
subject to any further call or assessment.

Preferred Stock

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes 5,000,000 shares of preferred
stock, none of which are issued. Our Board of Directors has the authority to
issue shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights,
preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon any
unissued shares of preferred stock and to fix the number of shares constituting
any series and the designations of such series, without any further vote or
action by the stockholders. We have no present plans to issue any of the
preferred stock.

Certain Effects of Authorized But Unissued Stock

We believe that the ability of our Board of Directors to issue one or more
series of preferred stock will provide us with flexibility in structuring
possible future acquisitions and in meeting other corporate needs that might
arise. Our Board of Directors, without stockholder approval, can issue
preferred stock with voting and conversion rights which could adversely affect
the voting power of the holders of common stock. Although our Board of
Directors has no current intention of doing so, it could issue one or more
series of preferred stock that could, depending on the terms of such series,
impede the completion of a merger, tender offer or other takeover attempt. Our
Board of Directors will make any determination to issue such shares based on
its judgment as to the best interests of Neuberger Berman and its stockholders.
Our Board of Directors, in so acting, could issue preferred stock having terms
that could discourage a potential acquiror from making, without first
negotiating with our Board of Directors, an acquisition attempt through which
such acquiror may be able to change the composition of our Board of Directors,
including a tender offer or other transaction that some, or a majority, of our
stockholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which
stockholders might receive a premium for their stock over the then current
market price.

Anti-Takeover Provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws

Some provisions of our certificate of incorporation and by-laws, applicable
law and the Stockholders Agreement could make the acquisition of Neuberger
Berman by means of a tender offer, a proxy contest or otherwise more difficult.
As described above, our certificate of incorporation authorizes our Board of
Directors to designate and issue preferred stock. Other provisions in the
certificate of incorporation and in our by-laws impose procedural and other
requirements that may be deemed to have anti-takeover effects. These provisions
include the inability of our stockholders to take any action without a meeting
or to call special meetings of stockholders, certain advance notice procedures
for nominating candidates for election as directors and for submitting
proposals for consideration at stockholders' meetings, and limitations on the
ability to remove directors. Further, our stockholders can amend our by-laws
and certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation only with a
two-thirds majority vote. Additionally, the Stockholders Agreement requires all
former Neuberger Berman principals and their family affiliates to vote their
shares in accordance with a preliminary vote conducted solely among these
stockholders.

Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law

We are subject to section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law,
which prohibits a public Delaware corporation from engaging in a "business
combination" with a stockholder that is an "interested stockholder" for a
period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the
stockholder became an interested stockholder unless:

. prior to such date, our Board of Directors approved either the business
combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming
an interested stockholder; or

. upon becoming an interested stockholder, the stockholder then owned at
least 85% of the voting stock, as defined in section 203; or

. subsequent to the date on which the stockholder became an interested
stockholder, the business combination is approved by both our Board of
Directors and by holders of at least 66 2/3% of our outstanding voting
stock, excluding shares owned by the interested stockholder.

For these purposes, the term "business combination" includes mergers, asset
sales and other similar transactions with an "interested stockholder." An
"interested stockholder" is a person who, together with affiliates and
associates, owns (or, within the prior three years, did own) 15% or more of the
corporation's voting stock.

Stockholders Agreement

On October 7, 1999, the principals of Neuberger Berman, LLC and the
shareholders of Neuberger Berman Management Inc. exchanged their ownership
interests for 64.1 million shares of our common stock. On October 13, 1999, we
completed an IPO. In that offering, we sold 4.5 million shares of common stock
and received net proceeds after expenses of approximately $88 million. In
addition, certain of our stockholders who received our common stock in the
Exchange sold 6,329,545 shares of that stock in the IPO.

The individuals who were principals of Neuberger Berman, LLC, their family
affiliates and Neuberger Berman have entered into a Stockholders Agreement that
governs transfers and voting of the shares of common stock received by the
principals and family affiliates in the Exchange. We refer to these shares of
common stock as the "Founder Shares."

Transfer Restrictions

The Stockholders Agreement prohibited any transfers of Founder Shares by
the individuals who were principals or their family affiliates prior to January
1, 2002 except in limited circumstances. Thereafter, they may transfer their
Founder Shares only as follows:

(a) (1) In each calendar year beginning on January 1, 2002, they may
transfer in the aggregate up to 10% of the aggregate number of Founder
Shares initially received by them in the Exchange (plus, in 2002 only, a
number of Founder Shares equal to the amount, if any, by which 15% of the
aggregate number of Founder Shares initially received by them in the
Exchange exceeds the aggregate number of Founder Shares sold by them in our
IPO).

(2) Founder Shares eligible to be transferred in any calendar year but
not transferred may be transferred at any time thereafter without
restriction.

(3) Notwithstanding (1) and (2) above, during the three years following
the date on which a former principal's employment with Neuberger Berman
terminates (the "Employment Termination Date"), that former principal and
his or her family affiliates may not transfer any Founder Shares other than
their Founder Shares that were eligible to be transferred but were not
transferred before the Employment Termination Date.

(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above, each former principal and his
or her family affiliates must at all times continue to hold at least 30% of
the aggregate number of Founder Shares initially received by them in the
Exchange until the third anniversary of the former principal's Employment
Termination Date.

Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b) above, if a former principal's
Employment Termination Date occurs prior to January 1, 2003 for any reason
other than death, disability or termination by the firm without cause, that
principal and his or her family affiliates may not transfer any Founder Shares
prior to January 1, 2007. On and after January 1, 2007, that former principal
and his or her family affiliates may in any calendar year transfer in the
aggregate a maximum of 20% of the aggregate amount of Founder Shares held by
them on the principal's Employment Termination Date. The number of Founder
Shares eligible for transfer in any one calendar year but not transferred may
be added to the number otherwise eligible to be transferred in any future year.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a former principal's employment with the
firm terminates due to disability or death, the principal (or his or her
estate) and his or her family affiliates may transfer their Founder Shares
without restriction.

In addition, our Board of Directors (or a body designated by the Board of
Directors) has the authority to make exceptions to any or all of the transfer
restrictions contained in the Stockholders Agreement and may permit or cause
other persons to become party to the agreement.

Voting

Prior to any vote of our stockholders, the Stockholders Agreement provides
for a separate, preliminary vote of the former principals who are currently
employed by us and their family affiliates (and any additional stockholders who
have agreed to vote their shares of common stock in accordance with the
Stockholders Agreement) on each matter upon which a vote of the stockholders is
proposed to be taken. In this preliminary vote, the participating stockholders
may vote all of the shares currently owned by them in such manner as each may
determine in his, her or its sole discretion. Each must then vote all of their
Founder Shares in accordance with the vote of the majority of the shares of
common stock present (in person or by proxy) and voting in such preliminary
vote. Each of the former principals who are currently employed by us and their
family affiliates has granted the Secretary of Neuberger Berman (or other
officer designated by the Secretary) an irrevocable proxy to vote his, her or
its Founder Shares in order to give effect to the voting provisions. Former
principals and their family affiliates are no longer required to vote in
accordance with a preliminary vote under the Stockholders Agreement after the
former principals' Employment Termination Date.

Call Right

The Stockholders Agreement provides that we may repurchase the Founder
Shares of a former principal and his or her family affiliates if the principal
engages in "Harmful Activity" at any time during his or her employment or
during the first three years after leaving. "Harmful Activity" includes:

. soliciting or accepting business from any person who was (1) a client of
the firm during the year prior to his or her departure (or, in the case
of an action taken during employment, during the prior year) or (2) any
prospective client of the firm who, during the year prior to his or her
departure (or, in the case of an action taken during employment, during
the prior year), had been directly or indirectly solicited by such
principal;

. soliciting or accepting business from any financial intermediary (or any
employee of a financial intermediary) with which the principal had
business contact during the year prior to his or her departure (or, in
the case of an action taken during employment, during the prior year);

. employing or soliciting for employment certain employees or consultants
of the firm;

. using (other than in seeking new employment) the investment performance
record of any mutual fund or client account with which the principal was
associated during his or her employment;

. using or disclosing confidential information of the firm; and

. publicly disparaging the firm or its current or former principals,
employees or consultants.

If our Board of Directors (or a body designated by the Board of Directors)
determines in good faith that a former principal has engaged in Harmful
Activity, we may purchase from that principal the excess of the number of
Founder Shares received by the former principal and his or her family
affiliates in the Exchange over the number of Founder Shares that the principal
and his or her family affiliates could have transferred prior to the date on
which the principal initially engaged in Harmful Activity. If a former
principal does not hold sufficient Founder Shares, we may purchase Founder
Shares from his or her family affiliates pro rata in accordance with their then
current holdings. The purchase price of any Founder Shares the Company
purchases in this manner will be $2.00 per share.

Transfer Administration and Distributions

The certificates representing the Founder Shares beneficially owned by each
former principal and family affiliate are registered in the name of the firm or
its nominee and held in the firm's custody at its principal office. During any
period in which we are in dispute with any former principal regarding his or
her obligations under the Stockholders Agreement or certain other agreements,
we will not release for transfer any Founder Shares of that principal or his or
her family affiliates or distribute to them any dividends or distributions
received in respect of their Founder Shares.

Amendments and Term

The Stockholders Agreement may be amended by our Board of Directors (or a
body designated by the Board of Directors), provided that any amendment that
materially adversely affects the former principals or family affiliates (or any
group of former principals or family affiliates) (other than any amendment to
cure any ambiguity in the agreement) must be approved by the former principals
and family affiliates holding a majority of the Founder Shares then subject to
the agreement. The agreement will terminate on the earlier to occur of (i) the
first date on which there are no former principals or family affiliates who
remain bound by its terms and (ii) the date on which we agree with former
principals and family affiliates who are then bound by its terms to terminate
the agreement.

Listing

The common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol
NEU.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

American Stock Transfer & Trust Company has been appointed as the transfer
agent and registrar for the shares of common stock.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The securities offered by this prospectus may be sold from time to time by
the selling stockholders or by certain of their transferees or successors in
interest in one or more transactions on the New York Stock Exchange or
otherwise, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at a fixed offering
price, which may be changed, at varying prices determined at the time of sale
or at negotiated prices. The 3,816,926 shares of common stock that may be
offered and sold by our former principals and their affiliates under this
prospectus are subject to the transfer restrictions contained in the
Stockholders Agreement. Accordingly, these shares cannot be offered or sold
before January 1, 2003 unless our Board of Directors or its designee waives
these restrictions. All of the 1,183,074 shares of common stock held by the
Employee Trust and covered by this prospectus are scheduled to vest in October
2002 and may not be sold prior to the vesting date unless Neuberger Berman
accelerates the vesting of such shares. The shares of common stock may be sold
by one or more means, including but not limited to the following:

. a block trade in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to
sell the shares of common stock as agent but may position and resell a
portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

. purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by that broker or
dealer for its account;

. an over-the-counter distribution;

. ordinary brokerage transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

. in connection with short sales or the writing of call options or other
derivative contracts, in hedging transactions and in settlement of other
transactions in standardized or over-the-counter options;

. sales in privately negotiated transactions;

. a combination of any such methods of sale; and

. any other method permitted under applicable law and not otherwise
prohibited by this prospectus.

A selling stockholder may decide not to sell any of that stockholder's
shares covered by this prospectus. We cannot assure you that any selling
stockholder will use this prospectus to sell any or all of the shares. Any
shares covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale under Rule 144 of the
Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. In
addition, a selling stockholder may transfer, devise or gift the shares by
other means not described in this prospectus.

Alternatively, the selling stockholders may from time to time offer the
shares of common stock covered by this prospectus through underwriters, dealers
or agents, who may receive compensation in the form of underwriting discounts,
concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders or the purchasers of
securities for whom they may act as agents. Such offerings may be effected in
connection with underwritten offerings of securities that are convertible into
or exchangeable for shares of common stock.

The selling stockholders and any underwriters, dealers or agents that
participate in the distribution of securities offered by this prospectus may be
deemed to be underwriters. Any profit on the sale of those securities by them
and any discounts, commissions or concessions they receive might be deemed to
be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. At the time
a particular underwritten offer of securities is made, to the extent required,
a supplement to this prospectus will be distributed which will set forth the
names of the selling stockholders, the aggregate amount of securities being
offered and the terms of the offering. These terms will include the name or

names of any underwriters, dealers or agents, and discounts, commissions and
other items constituting compensation from the selling stockholders and any
discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers.

In order to comply with the securities laws of particular states, if
applicable, the shares of common stock offered under this prospectus will be
sold in the jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or
dealers. In addition, in particular states, the shares of common stock may not
be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the
applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification
requirements is available and complied with.

Each selling stockholder will be subject to applicable provisions of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations thereunder, which
provisions may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of common
stock by the selling stockholders.

The selling stockholders will pay the commissions and discounts of
underwriters, dealers or agents, if any, incurred in connection with the sale
of common stock. In compliance with NASD guidelines, the maximum commission or
discount to be received by any NASD member or independent broker dealer may not
exceed 8% of the aggregate amount of the securities offered pursuant to this
prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement.

We and the selling stockholders may have agreements with the underwriters,
dealers and agents to indemnify them against certain civil liabilities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with or perform
services for us or our subsidiaries in the ordinary course of their business.

Any underwriter may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions,
short-covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M
under the Securities Exchange Act. Over-allotment involves sales in excess of
the offering size, which create a short position. Stabilizing transactions
permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids
do not exceed a specified maximum. Short-covering transactions involve
purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution is
completed to cover short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to
reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold
by the dealer are purchased in a covering transaction to cover short positions.
Those activities may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it
would otherwise be. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue any of the
activities at any time.

LEGAL MATTERS

Certain legal matters with respect to the validity of the offered
securities will be passed upon for us by Willkie Farr & Gallagher, New York,
New York. Any underwriters will be advised about matters relating to any
offering by their own legal counsel. Mr. Jack H. Nusbaum is chairman of Willkie
Farr & Gallagher, and a Director of Neuberger Berman. As of June 30, 2002, Mr.
Nusbaum beneficially owned 23,649 shares of Neuberger Berman common stock.

EXPERTS

The audited consolidated statements of financial condition of Neuberger
Berman as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related audited consolidated
statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001, included and
incorporated by reference in this prospectus have been audited by Arthur
Andersen LLP, independent public accountants, as stated in their report
included and incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and are included and
incorporated by reference herein in reliance upon the authority of said firm as

INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

On April 23, 2002, we announced that our Board of Directors has appointed
KPMG LLP as our independent auditors replacing Arthur Andersen LLP. The
decision to change auditors was not the result of any disagreement between
Arthur Andersen LLP and us on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Neuberger Berman Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial
condition of Neuberger Berman Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries as
of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related consolidated statements of
income, changes in principals' capital and stockholders' equity and cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001. These
consolidated financial statements and the schedule referred to below are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements and schedule based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Neuberger
Berman Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The condensed financial statements of
the registrant parent and notes contained in Schedule I are presented for
purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and
are not a required part of the basic financial statements. This information has
been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

the laws of the United States, Neuberger Berman Asset Management, LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company, Executive Monetary Management, Inc., a New
York corporation and Sage Partners, LLC, a New York limited liability company
(collectively, the "Company"). NB, LLC's wholly owned subsidiaries are
Neuberger Berman Trust Company of Delaware, a non-depository limited purpose
trust company chartered under the Delaware Banking Code and Neuberger & Berman
Agency Inc., a New York corporation. Material intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company is a registered investment adviser providing investment
management services to high net worth clients, mutual funds and institutional
clients. As a registered investment adviser, the Company manages equity, fixed
income, balanced, socially responsive, and international portfolios for
individuals, families, endowments, foundations, trusts and employee benefit
plans. In addition, the Company advises the Neuberger Berman family of funds.
As a registered broker-dealer, the Company executes securities transactions for
its clients and others and provides prime brokerage and correspondent clearing
services to other firms.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation
of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements.
Management does not believe that actual results will differ materially from
these estimates.

Securities owned and securities sold but not yet purchased are valued at
market. Principal transactions in securities and the related revenues and
expenses are recorded on a trade date basis. During the year ended December 31,
2000, the Company began recording its commission income and related expenses on
a trade date basis. There was no material impact resulting from this change.

For purposes of the consolidated statements of financial condition, the
Company considers all investments in money market funds to be cash equivalents.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

The majority of investment advisory fees earned from high net worth and
institutional clients are charged or billed to accounts quarterly based upon
the account's net asset value at the beginning of a quarter. Investment
advisory and administrative fees earned from the Company's mutual fund business
(the "Funds") are charged monthly to the Funds based upon average daily net
assets under management.

Furniture and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over
their estimated useful lives. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the
straight-line method over the lesser of the economic life of the improvement or
the life of the lease.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 142, which became effective on July 1,
2001 for acquisitions after June 30, 2001 and on January 1, 2002 for
acquisitions prior to July 1, 2001, states that goodwill is no longer subject
to amortization over its estimated useful life, but will be assessed for
impairment. In addition, acquired intangible assets are separately recognized
if the benefit of the intangible asset is obtained through contractual or other
legal rights, or if the intangible asset can be sold, transferred, licensed,
rented, or exchanged, regardless of the acquirer's intent to do so. For the
years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, net income excluding goodwill
amortization would have been $133,317,000 and $150,377,000, respectively. As of
December 31, 2001, the Company does not anticipate any goodwill impairment
charge as a result of the implementation of SFAS 142.

In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144").
SFAS 144 addresses the financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or
disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2001. The Company does not believe the implementation of
SFAS 144 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial condition or
results of operations.

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the
weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share
is calculated by dividing net income by the total weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding and common stock equivalents. Common stock
equivalents are comprised of dilutive potential shares from stock options and
certain restricted stock awards. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the
computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. Diluted earnings per share is
computed using the treasury stock method. For purposes of determining weighted
average common shares outstanding for the periods prior to the Exchange, the
outstanding shares were determined based upon the conversion ratio to effect
the exchange of principals' capital and stockholders' equity for NBI common
stock. Pro rata distributions of earnings and capital to the principals were
not considered to effect outstanding shares.

3. SECURITIES PURCHASED AND SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO RESELL AND REPURCHASE

Securities purchased and sold under agreements to resell and repurchase are
accounted for as collateralized financing transactions and are carried at
contract value plus accrued interest. It is the policy of the Company to obtain
possession of collateral, comprised of market value and cash, equal to or in
excess of principal amounts received and pledged under resale and repurchase
agreements, respectively. Collateral is valued daily, and the Company may
require counterparties to deposit additional collateral when appropriate. As of
December 31, 2001, the Company had received securities

F-9

NEUBERGER BERMAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

3. SECURITIES PURCHASED AND SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO RESELL AND REPURCHASE
(Continued)

with market values of $801,935,000, of which $497,504,000 is included in cash
and securities segregated for the exclusive benefit of clients (see Note 11).
In addition, the Company pledged securities with market values of $610,857,000.

As of December 31, 2001, the Company repledged $304,431,000 of the
securities it had received under its resale agreements.

4. RECEIVABLE FROM AND PAYABLE TO CLIENTS

Receivable from and payable to clients represent amounts due from or to
clients of the Company in connection with cash and margin securities
transactions. Amounts receivable are collateralized by clients' securities held
by NB, LLC and by others for delivery to NB, LLC, the value of which is not
reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

In the normal course of business, the Company is permitted to use client
margin securities to finance customer securities transactions subject to
certain regulatory guidelines.

5. RECEIVABLE FROM AND PAYABLE TO BROKERS, DEALERS AND CLEARING ORGANIZATIONS

As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, amounts receivable from and payable to
brokers, dealers and clearing organizations included approximately $1,946
million and $2,454 million of securities borrowed and approximately $1,576
million and $1,427 million of securities loaned, respectively.

Securities borrowed and securities loaned transactions are reported as
collateralized financing transactions. Securities borrowed transactions require
the Company to deposit cash with the lender. With respect to securities loaned,
the Company receives collateral in the form of cash in an amount generally in
excess of the market value of securities loaned. The Company monitors the
market value of securities borrowed and loaned on a daily basis, with
additional collateral obtained or refunded as necessary. As of December 31,
2001, the Company had received securities with a market value of approximately
$1,851 million related to its securities borrowed transactions. As of December
31, 2001, the Company had pledged securities with a market value of
approximately $1,494 million related to its securities loaned transactions.

As of December 31, 2001, the Company repledged $1,851 million of the
securities it had received under its securities borrowed transactions.

6. BANK LOANS

Bank loans represent unsecured short-term borrowings payable to commercial
banks. For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, interest expense
incurred on these borrowings was approximately $2,700,000, $5,076,000 and
$2,287,000 based upon weighted average interest rates of 5.49%, 6.53%, and
5.13%, respectively.

7. LONG-TERM DEBT

On May 4, 2001, in accordance with Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, NBI sold $175 million principal amount at maturity of zero-coupon
convertible senior notes due 2021,

F-10

NEUBERGER BERMAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

7. LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued)

resulting in proceeds of approximately $151 million. The issue price represents
a yield to maturity of 0.75% per year, which is accounted for under the
effective interest rate method. Each $1,000 principal amount at maturity of the
convertible securities is convertible into 13.8879 shares of the Company's
common stock upon the occurrence of any of the following events: i) during any
calendar quarter commencing after June 30, 2001, the closing sale price of
NBI's common stock on the New York Stock Exchange for at least 20 trading days
in a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of
the preceding calendar quarter is more than a specified percentage, initially
120% and declining 0.12658% each quarter thereafter, of the accreted conversion
price per share of the Company's common stock on the last trading day of the
preceding calendar quarter; ii) the Company elects to redeem the convertible
securities; iii) the Company takes certain corporate actions, such as the
declaration of an extraordinary dividend; and iv) the credit rating by Standard
& Poor's is below investment grade. The Company may redeem the convertible
securities for cash on or after May 4, 2006, at their accreted value. The
Company may be required to repurchase the convertible securities at the
accreted value thereof, at the option of the holders on May 4 of 2002, 2004,
2006, 2011 and 2016. The Company may choose to pay for such repurchases in cash
or shares of its common stock. For the year ended December 31, 2001, NBI
recorded accreted interest of $754,000.

8. SUBORDINATED LIABILITIES

During 1998, the principals of NB, LLC withdrew $50,000,000 of capital and
invested it in a newly formed entity, NB Associates, LLC ("Associates").
Concurrently, Associates loaned the $50,000,000 to NB, LLC in the form of a
subordinated liability. The subordinated liability bore interest at 6.75% per
annum and was approved by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. ("NYSE") as capital
for the purpose of computing net capital under Rule 15c3-1 (the "Rule") of the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). For the year ended December 31,
1999, interest expense incurred on the subordinated liability was $2,411,000.
On October 29, 1999, the subordinated liability was fully repaid.

On September 1, 1999, The Travelers Insurance Company loaned NB, LLC
$35,000,000 pursuant to a subordinated promissory note (the "Note"). This
amount is payable on September 1, 2004. Interest accrues on the unpaid
principal amount of the Note at a floating rate adjusted quarterly, based on
the three month LIBOR rate plus 75 basis points and is payable quarterly. The
Note was approved by the NYSE and the unpaid principal amount is available to
NB, LLC in computing net capital under the Rule. The Note contains certain
covenants that limit the percentage by which the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of subordinated liabilities exceed total regulatory capital and impose a
dollar amount below which total ownership equity cannot fall. In the opinion of
management, the Company is in compliance with its debt covenants. For the years
ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, interest expense incurred on the Note
was $1,838,000, $2,588,000 and $747,000, respectively.

9. STOCK OPTIONS

The Company has two stock based plans that provide for the granting of
stock options to employees and directors, the 1999 Neuberger Berman Inc.
Long-Term Incentive Plan and the 1999 Neuberger Berman Inc. Directors Stock
Incentive Plan (collectively, the "Plans"). At December 31, 2001, approximately
10,482,000 shares were available for grant under the Plans.

Options were granted at the fair market value of NBI common stock at the
time of grant for a period of ten years and vest over a five-year period. The
Plans also permit an employee exercising an

F-11

9. STOCK OPTIONS (Continued)

option to be granted new options (reload options) in an amount equal to the
number of common shares used to satisfy the exercise price and withholding
taxes due upon exercise. In order to receive reload options, the fair value of
a share of NBI common stock must exceed the exercise price by at least 20% on
the date of exercise. The reload options are granted for the remaining term of
the related original option and vest after six months.

Information with respect to stock option activity under the Plans for the
years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 is as follows:

The Company has elected to account for its Plans in accordance with
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees" ("APB 25"), as permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"). In
accordance with APB 25, compensation expense is generally not recognized for
stock options that have no intrinsic value on the date of grant. The dilutive
effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the
computation of earnings per share (see Note 10).

Had the Company applied SFAS 123 in accounting for its Plans based on the
fair value of the awards at the date of grant, the Company's net income and net
income per share would have decreased as indicated in the table below. For
purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the Plans is
amortized to expense over the vesting period.

The effects of applying SFAS 123 for providing pro forma disclosures may
not be representative of the effects on reported net income for future years.

The Black-Scholes option pricing model is used to estimate the fair value
of each option grant on the date of grant. This valuation model was developed
for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting
restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models
require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock
price volatility. Because NBI's stock options have characteristics
significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in
the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate,
in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a
reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

The weighted average fair value of options granted during 2001 and 2000 was
$17.05 and $6.27, respectively. The following weighted average assumptions were
used for grants under the Plans for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000:

10. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share has been computed in accordance with the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share."
Shares have been adjusted to give effect to the three-for-two stock split in
NBI's common stock in August 2001. The following is a reconciliation of the
income and share data used in the basic and diluted earnings per share
computations for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999:

2001 2000 1999
-------- -------- --------

Net Income.............................................. $132,668 $150,356 $135,567

At December 31, 2001 and 2000, options on approximately 676,000 shares and
30,000 shares, respectively, have been excluded from the earnings per share
computation above due to their anti-dilutive effect. Due to its contingent
conversion feature, long-term debt has not been considered.

11. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS

NB, LLC and NBMI, as registered broker-dealers and member firms of the NYSE
and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., respectively, are
subject to the Rule, which requires that broker-dealers maintain a minimum
level of net capital, as defined. As of December 31, 2001, NB, LLC and NBMI had
net capital of approximately $236,913,000 and $12,886,000, respectively, which
exceeded their requirements by approximately $210,489,000 and $12,636,000,
respectively.

The Rule also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn or cash
dividends paid if the resulting net capital of a broker-dealer would be less
than the amount required under the Rule. Accordingly, at December 31, 2001, the
payments of dividends and advances to NBI by NB, LLC and NBMI are limited to
$170,853,000 and $12,586,000, respectively, under the most restrictive of these
requirements.

As of December 31, 2001, cash of $3,550,000, U.S. Treasury bills with a
market value of $101,133,000 and $475,265,000 of contract value plus accrued
interest on various U.S. Government obligations purchased under agreements to
resell have been segregated in a special reserve bank account for the exclusive
benefit of customers under Rule 15c3-3 of the SEC. In addition, cash of
approximately $24,000 and U.S. Treasury bills with a market value of
approximately $996,000 have been segregated under the Commodity Exchange Act.

reserve requirement of $11,846,000 which was met by the deposit of $13,005,000
of contract value on a U.S. Treasury note purchased under an agreement to
resell, which has been segregated in a special reserve bank account for the
exclusive benefit of customers--PAIB under Rule 15c3-3 of the SEC.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company leases office space and equipment under lease agreements
expiring on various dates through 2013. Office space leases are subject to
escalation based on increases in costs incurred by the lessor. Minimum rentals,
excluding office space escalation, under these lease agreements are as follows:

Years Ending December 31, Amount
------------------------- -----------

2002.................... $16,889,000
2003.................... 16,283,000
2004.................... 15,542,000
2005.................... 14,709,000
2006.................... 14,178,000
Thereafter.............. 85,310,000

Rent expense for premises and equipment for the years ended December 31,
2001, 2000 and 1999, was $18,671,000, $16,390,000 and $13,483,000, respectively.

The Company has satisfied margin requirements with clearing organizations
by obtaining letters of credit in favor of the clearing organizations. Open
unsecured letters of credit as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, were $40,501,000
and $44,312,000, respectively. Unused committed lines of credit were
$100,000,000 as of December 31, 2001 and 2000.

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to various legal
proceedings. In the opinion of management, based on discussions with legal
counsel, the resolution of pending proceedings will not have a material adverse
effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or
liquidity of the Company.

13. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Company has defined contribution plans consisting of an employee
profit-sharing plan and a money purchase pension plan covering all full-time
employees and qualifying part-time employees who have completed one year of
continuous service, as defined. Contributions to the plans, which are at the
discretion of management, are determined annually but do not exceed the amount
permitted under the Internal Revenue Code as a deductible expense.
Contributions to the plans for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and
1999, were $4,200,000, $5,437,000 and $6,854,000, respectively.

The Company made an initial, irrevocable contribution of 6,396,516 shares
of its common stock to an employee defined contribution stock incentive plan
trust (the "Stock Incentive Plan") on behalf of its employees. Common stock
that was awarded to employees in conjunction with the IPO is restricted and
vests in three installments on October 8/th/ of 2001, 2002 and 2003. Certain
benefits of ownership, including the payment of any dividends declared during
the restricted period, belong to the employees. Unvested common stock that
becomes forfeited upon an employee's termination of employment is

13. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS (Continued)

reallocated in the sole and absolute discretion of the compensation committee,
including determination of vesting periods. The common stock contributed may
not revert to the Company. Included in employee compensation and benefits for
the year ended December 31, 1999, is a non-cash charge of approximately
$134,327,000, related to the contribution of common stock. Due to forfeitures,
no contributions of common stock were made for the years ended December 31,
2001 and 2000.

On July 18, 2000, the Board of Directors adopted, upon the recommendation
of its compensation committee, two plans that will facilitate employee stock
ownership, an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "ESPP"), and the Wealth
Accumulation Plan (the "Plan").

The ESPP provides that employees may elect to acquire NBI common stock
through payroll deductions, on an after tax basis, at a 15% discount from
market value of such stock. Employees may not transfer the common stock
acquired through the ESPP for one year from purchase date. In accordance with
the terms and provisions of the ESPP, employees are precluded from acquiring,
on an annual basis, shares of common stock that have an aggregate purchase
price (as defined in the ESPP documentation) in excess of $10,000. The ESPP,
which has a term of ten years, became effective during September 2000. During
the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company issued from treasury 49,922
shares of common stock, at a 15% discount, with an approximate value of
$1,923,000.

The Plan provides that on an annual basis, employees who are eligible for a
bonus may elect to defer all or a portion of their bonus and employees who
receive commissions and other direct pay may elect to defer a portion of such
compensation. In each case, up to 20% of total compensation may be deferred
with a maximum deferral of up to $500,000; provided that employees who receive
an annual bonus may, in any event, defer no more than 100% of any bonus.
Amounts deferred by employees are used to acquire, on a pretax basis, NBI
common stock at a 25% discount from the market value of such stock. Any common
stock so acquired is restricted with respect to transfer or sale for a period
of three years (during which time the employee is required to render service to
the Company) from the respective bonus payment or commission payment date, as
such terms are defined in the Plan. Certain benefits of ownership, including
the payment of any dividends declared during the restricted period, belong to
the employees. Unlike the ESPP, cash amounts credited to a participant's
deferral account and shares of common stock acquired through the Plan are
subject to forfeiture in certain events of termination of employment. Unearned
compensation associated with the restricted stock represents the market value
of NBI common stock at the date of issuance and is recognized as compensation
expense ratably over the vesting period. The Plan, which has an unlimited term,
became effective during September 2000. For the year ended December 31, 2001,
the Company recorded compensation expense of $2,678,000.

14. INCOME TAXES

Prior to the Exchange in 1999, the Company primarily operated as two
different types of tax entities. These entities included a Limited Liability
Company (taxed as a Partnership) and an S-Corporation and as such, the combined
entities' income prior to October 7, 1999 was not subject to U.S. federal
income taxes. The principals of the Company's predecessor partnership were
taxed on their proportionate share of the partnership's taxable income or loss.

Effective with the Exchange, the Company became subject to U.S. federal,
state and local corporate income taxes and has elected to file a federal
consolidated income tax return.

The Company accounts for taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Deferred income
taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the
financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured
using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when such
differences are expected to reverse. Significant components of the Company's
net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, include compensation
and benefits, depreciation and amortization and unrealized gains and losses on
marketable securities.

Management of the Company has not established a valuation allowance for its
net deferred tax asset because they conclude that it is more likely than not
the benefit will be realized.

A reconciliation of the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate of 35% to
the Company's effective income tax rate is set forth below:

The Company's effective tax rate in 1999 included a rate benefit
attributable to the Company generally not being subject to corporate taxes on
its earnings prior to its conversion to corporate form.

14. INCOME TAXES (Continued)

The value of the Company's deferred tax asset relating to the unvested
shares in the Stock Incentive Plan fluctuated with the price of the Company's
stock from December 31, 1999 to June 30, 2000. In March 2000, the FASB issued
FASB Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving
Stock Compensation," an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25 ("FIN 44"). The
Company adjusted, based upon the price of its common stock at the close of
business on June 30, 2000, the carrying value of the deferred tax asset that
relates to unvested shares in the Stock Incentive Plan. FIN 44 became effective
on July 1, 2000, and now requires that the deferred tax asset be determined by
the compensation expense recognized for financial reporting purposes.
Accordingly, at June 30, 2000, the Company fixed the carrying value of its
deferred tax asset for unvested shares in its Stock Incentive Plan, based upon
the price of NBI's common stock at the close of business that day.

15. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosure about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments," requires the Company to report the fair value
of financial instruments, as defined. Substantially all of the Company's assets
and liabilities are carried at contract value, which approximates market value
due to their relatively short-term nature or variable market rates of interest.
Long-term debt of $151,420,000, which is carried at accreted cost, had an
estimated fair value of approximately $150,063,000 at December 31, 2001.

16. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF
CREDIT RISK

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into various debt and
equity transactions as principal or agent. The execution, settlement and
financing of these transactions can result in off-balance sheet risk or
concentrations of credit risk.

The Company has a high net worth and institutional client base. The Company
records client securities transactions on a settlement date basis, which is
generally three business days after trade date. The Company is exposed to
off-balance sheet risk of loss on unsettled transactions in the event clients
and other counterparties are unable to fulfill contractual obligations.

The Company's policy is to continuously monitor its exposure to market and
counterparty risk through the use of a variety of credit exposure, position and
financial reporting and control procedures. In addition, the Company has a
policy of reviewing the credit standing, where applicable, of each
broker-dealer, client and other counterparty with which it conducts business.
The Company monitors the market value of collateral and requests and receives
additional collateral when required.

For transactions in which the Company extends credit to clients, the
Company seeks to control the risks associated with these activities by
requiring clients to maintain margin collateral in compliance with various
regulatory and internal guidelines. The Company monitors required margin levels
daily and, pursuant to such guidelines, requests the deposit of additional
collateral, or reduces securities positions when necessary. The Company's
policy is to take possession of securities purchased under agreements to resell.

As part of its prime brokerage business, the Company writes covered
over-the-counter put options on listed equity securities with certain of its
prime brokerage clients. Market risk is mitigated as the options are generally
deep in the money and covered by an equivalent number of securities sold but
not yet purchased. The fair value of such options was approximately $826,000
and $1,633,000 at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

17. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," the
Company has four reportable segments: Private Asset Management, Mutual Fund and
Institutional, Professional Securities Services and Corporate. The Private
Asset Management segment provides customized investment management services for
high net worth individuals, families and smaller institutions through money
management, advisory services and trust services. Its revenues are principally
investment advisory fees and commissions. The investment advisory and
administrative services that are provided through the Mutual Fund and
Institutional segment include: the management of the Neuberger Berman family of
mutual funds, investment management of institutional separate account products
and wrap products sponsored by third party brokerage firms and banks. Its
revenues are principally investment advisory and administrative fees and
commissions. The Professional Securities Services segment provides trade
execution, clearing, custody, margin financing, portfolio reporting and trust
services through professional investor clearing services, wealth management
services, research sales and other activities, including market making, global
securities lending, custody and recordkeeping services and treasury management.
The revenues derived by this segment are principally commissions, net interest,
trading revenues and clearance fees. The Corporate segment reflects certain
corporate results that are not directly related to the day-to-day operations of
the Company's principal business. Prior periods have been revised to conform
with current year presentation.

The Company does not record revenues from transactions between segments
(referred to as intersegment revenues).

The Company evaluates performance of its segments based on profit or loss
from operations before Reorganization and IPO Charges and taxes. No single
client accounted for more than 10% of the Company's combined revenues.
Information on statement of financial condition data by segment is not
disclosed because it is not used for evaluating segment performance and
deciding how to allocate resources to segments. Substantially all of the
Company's revenues and assets are attributable to or located in the United
States.

Summarized information for the Company's reportable segments is presented
in the following table (000's omitted):

NEUBERGER BERMAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Neuberger Berman Inc. ("NBI") was organized as a Delaware corporation on
August 13, 1998. NBI was formed to be the holding company for Neuberger Berman,
LLC ("NB, LLC"), a Delaware limited liability company and Neuberger Berman
Management Inc. ("NBMI"), a New York corporation, and to allow for the issuance
of common stock to the public.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NBI
and its subsidiaries. NBI's significant wholly owned subsidiaries are NB, LLC,
NBMI, and Neuberger Berman Trust Company, N.A., which holds a national bank
charter under the laws of the United States (collectively, the "Company").
Material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.

The Company is a registered investment adviser and a registered
broker-dealer, providing investment management services to high net worth
clients, mutual funds and institutional clients. As a registered investment
adviser, the Company manages equity, fixed income, balanced, socially
responsive, and international portfolios for individuals, families, endowments,
foundations, trusts and employee benefit plans. In addition, the Company
advises the Neuberger Berman family of funds. As a registered broker-dealer,
the Company executes securities transactions for its clients and others and
provides prime brokerage and correspondent clearing services to other firms.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do
not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair
presentation of condensed consolidated financial condition and results of
operations for the periods presented have been included. All adjustments are of
a normal and recurring nature. It is suggested that these condensed
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and the related notes included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. Certain prior period
amounts have been reclassified to conform to the three months ended March 31,
2002 presentation.

On July 23, 2001, the Board of Directors of NBI declared a three-for-two
stock split of the Company's common stock in the form of a 50% stock dividend.
Accordingly, certain share data as well as net income per common share amounts
have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the three-for-two stock split.

3. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 142, which became effective on July 1,
2001 for acquisitions after June 30, 2001, and on January 1, 2002 for
acquisitions prior to July 1, 2001, states that goodwill is no longer subject
to amortization over its estimated useful life, but will be assessed for
impairment. In addition, acquired intangible assets are separately recognized
if the benefit of the intangible asset is obtained through contractual or other
legal rights, or if the intangible asset can be sold, transferred, licensed,
rented, or exchanged, regardless of the acquirer's intent to do so. For the
three months ended March 31, 2001, net income excluding

F-33

NEUBERGER BERMAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
(Unaudited)

3. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS (Continued)

goodwill amortization would have been $34,325,000. As of March 31, 2002, the
Company does not anticipate any goodwill impairment charge as a result of the
implementation of SFAS 142.

4. LONG-TERM DEBT

On May 4, 2001, in accordance with Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, the Company sold $175,000,000 principal amount at maturity of
zero-coupon senior convertible notes due 2021, resulting in proceeds of
approximately $151,000,000. The issue price represents a yield to maturity of
0.75% per year, which is accounted for using the effective interest rate
method. Each $1,000 principal amount at maturity of the convertible securities
is convertible into 13.8879 shares of the Company's common stock upon the
occurrence of any of the following events: i) during any calendar quarter
commencing after June 30, 2001, the closing sale price of NBI's common stock on
the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") for at least 20 trading days in a period
of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the preceding
calendar quarter is more than a specified percentage, initially 120% and
declining 0.12658% each quarter thereafter, of the accreted conversion price
per share of the Company's common stock on the last trading day of the
preceding calendar quarter; ii) the Company elects to redeem the convertible
securities; iii) the Company takes certain corporate actions, such as the
declaration of an extraordinary dividend; and iv) the credit rating by Standard
& Poor's is below investment grade. The Company may redeem the convertible
securities for cash on or after May 4, 2006, at their accreted value. The
Company may be required to repurchase the convertible securities at the
accreted value thereof, at the option of the holders on May 4 of 2002, 2004,
2006, 2011 and 2016. The Company may choose to pay for such repurchases in cash
or shares of its common stock. For the three months ended March 31, 2002, the
Company recorded accreted interest of $284,000.

Effective May 2, 2002, the Company amended the terms of its convertible
securities to permit the holders, at their option, to cause the Company to
repurchase the convertible securities on November 4, 2002, at their accreted
value of $870.67 per $1,000 principal amount at maturity. The Company also
announced that each holder electing not to require the Company to repurchase
its convertible securities as of May 4, 2002, will receive a one-time payment
of $4.34 for every $1,000 aggregate principal amount at maturity of the
convertible securities held. As of the close of business May 3, 2002, holders
of approximately 5% or $8.7 million principal amount of the convertible
securities exercised their option to cause the Company to repurchase their
convertible securities. The Company paid $7.6 million for these repurchases in
cash on May 6, 2002. On May 8, 2002, the Company made a one-time payment of
$4.34 for every $1,000 aggregate principal amount at maturity of the
convertible securities to each holder of the convertible securities as of the
close of business on May 7, 2002.

5. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS

NB, LLC and NBMI, as registered broker-dealers and member firms of the NYSE
and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., are subject to the
Securities and Exchange Commission's (the "SEC") Uniform Net Capital Rule
15c3-1 ("the Rule"), which requires that broker-dealers maintain a minimum
level of net capital, as defined. As of March 31, 2002, NB, LLC and NBMI had
net capital of approximately $216,132,000 and $5,429,000, respectively, which
exceeded their requirements by approximately $195,132,000 and $5,179,000,
respectively.

The Rule also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn or cash
dividends paid if the resulting net capital of a broker-dealer would be less
than the amount required under the Rule.

F-34

NEUBERGER BERMAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
(Unaudited)

5. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS (Continued)

Accordingly, at March 31, 2002, the payments of dividends and advances to NBI
by NB, LLC and NBMI are limited to approximately $163,633,000 and $5,129,000,
respectively, under the most restrictive of these requirements.

As of March 31, 2002, cash of $1,500,000, U.S Treasury bills with a market
value of $315,440,000 and $658,283,000 of contract value plus accrued interest
on various U.S. Government obligations purchased under agreements to resell
have been segregated in a special reserve bank account for the exclusive
benefit of customers under Rule 15c3-3 of the SEC. In addition, cash of
approximately $18,000 and U.S. Treasury bills with a market value of
approximately $996,000 have been segregated under the Commodity Exchange Act.

As a clearing broker-dealer, NB, LLC has elected to compute a reserve
requirement for Proprietary Accounts of Introducing Broker-Dealers ("PAIB
Calculation"), as defined. The PAIB Calculation is computed in order for
correspondent firms to classify their assets held by NB, LLC as allowable
assets in the correspondents' net capital calculation. At March 31, 2002, NB,
LLC had a reserve requirement of $11,811,000 which was met by the deposit of
$16,004,000 of contract value plus accrued interest on a U.S. Treasury note
purchased under an agreement to resell, which has been segregated in a special
reserve bank account for the exclusive benefit of customers-PAIB under Rule
15c3-3 of the SEC.

6. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per common share are calculated by dividing net income by
the weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common
share are calculated by dividing net income by the total weighted average
common shares outstanding and common stock equivalents. Common stock
equivalents are comprised of dilutive potential shares from stock options and
certain restricted stock awards. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the
computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. Diluted earnings per common share
are computed using the treasury stock method. Shares have been adjusted to give
effect to the three-for-two stock split in NBI's common stock in August 2001.

The following is a reconciliation of the income and share data used in the
basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three months ended
March 31, 2002 and 2001:

6. EARNINGS PER SHARE (Continued)

At March 31, 2002 and 2001, options on approximately 1,042,000 shares and
997,000 shares, respectively, have been excluded from the earnings per share
computation above due to their anti-dilutive effect. Due to its contingent
conversion feature, long-term debt has not been considered.

7. CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to various legal
proceedings. In the opinion of management, based on discussions with legal
counsel, the resolution of pending proceedings will not have a material adverse
effect on the condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations
or liquidity of the Company.

8. STOCK OPTIONS

The Company has two stock based plans that provide for the granting of
stock options to employees and directors, the 1999 Neuberger Berman Inc.
Long-Term Incentive Plan and the 1999 Neuberger Berman Inc. Directors Stock
Incentive Plan (collectively, the "Plans"). The following table summarizes

Under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," the

reflects certain corporate results that are not directly related to the
day-to-day operations of the Company's principal business. Prior periods have
been revised to conform with current year presentation.

The Company does not record revenues from transactions between segments
(referred to as intersegment revenues).

The Company evaluates performance of its segments based on profit or loss
from operations before taxes. No single client accounted for more than 10% of
the Company's combined revenues. Information on statement of financial
condition data by segment is not disclosed because it is not used for
evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to
segments. Substantially all of the Company's revenues and assets are
attributable to or located in the United States.
