liquidity and current income. The Fund provides a convenient means for investors
to enjoy current income at money market rates with minimal risk of fluctuation
of principal.
 
     RISK FACTORS. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its

will tend to be somewhat higher than prevailing market rates, and in periods of
rising interest rates the Fund's yield generally will be somewhat lower. See
'Investment Objective and Policies.'

assist investors in understanding the expenses associated with investing in the

</TABLE>
    
 
                       EXAMPLE OF EFFECT OF FUND EXPENSES
 
     An investor would pay directly or indirectly the following expenses on a
$1,000 investment in the Fund, assuming a 5% annual return:
 
   
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
ONE YEAR   THREE YEARS   FIVE YEARS   TEN YEARS
- --------   -----------   ----------   ---------
<S>        <C>           <C>          <C>
   $6          $19          $33          $75
</TABLE>
    

     This Example assumes that all dividends are reinvested and that the
percentage amounts listed under Annual Fund Operating Expenses remain the same
in the years shown. The above tables and the assumption in the Example of a 5%
annual return are required by regulations of the SEC applicable to all mutual
funds; the assumed 5% annual return is not a prediction of, and does not
represent, the Fund's projected or actual performance.
 
     THE EXAMPLE SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE
EXPENSES, AND THE FUND'S ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE MORE OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN.
The actual expenses of the Fund will depend upon, among other things, the level
of average net assets and the extent to which the Fund incurs variable expenses,
such as transfer agency costs.

                       Investment Objective and Policies

                       The Fund's investment objective is to provide current
                       income, stability of principal and high liquidity. The
                       Fund invests exclusively in high-grade money market
                       instruments with remaining maturities of 13 months or
                       less. These instruments include U.S. government
                       securities, obligations of U.S. banks, commercial paper
                       and other short-term corporate obligations, variable and
                       floating rate securities and participation interests or
                       repurchase agreements involving any of the foregoing. The
                       Fund maintains a dollar-weighted average portfolio
                       maturity of 90 days or less.

   
The Fund invests       The Fund may invest in obligations (including
exclusively            certificates of deposit, bankers' acceptances, time

instruments with       $1.5 billion at the time of purchase. The Fund may also
remaining maturities   invest in interest-bearing savings deposits in U.S.
of 13 months or        commercial and savings banks, including time deposits
less.                  maturing in seven days or less of savings associations
                       and similar associations, provided that the principal
                       amounts at each such bank are fully insured by the
                       Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the aggregate
                       amount of such deposits does not exceed 5% of the value
                       of the Fund's assets.
    
 
                       The commercial paper and other short-term corporate
                       obligations purchased by the Fund consist only of
                       obligations that Mitchell Hutchins determines, pursuant
                       to procedures adopted by the Fund's board of directors,
                       present minimal credit risks and are either (1) rated in
                       the highest short-term rating category by at least two
                       nationally recognized statistical rating organizations
                       ('NRSROs'), (2) rated in the highest short-term rating
                       category by a single NRSRO if only that NRSRO has
                       assigned the obligations a short-term rating or (3)
                       unrated, but determined by Mitchell Hutchins to be of
                       comparable quality ('First Tier Securities'). The Fund
                       may also purchase bonds and notes with remaining
                       maturities of 13 months or less, and participation
                       interests in any of the securities in which it is
                       permitted to invest. Participation interests are pro rata
                       interests in securities held by others. The Fund
                       generally may invest no more than 5% of its total assets
                       in the securities of a single issuer (other than
                       securities issued by the U.S. government, its agencies or
                       instrumentalities).
 
                       In managing the Fund's portfolio, Mitchell Hutchins may
                       employ a number of professional money management
                       techniques, including varying the composition and the
                       average weighted maturity of the Fund's portfolio based
                       upon its assessment of the relative values of various
                       money market instruments and future interest rate
                       patterns in order to respond to changing economic and
                       money market conditions and to shifts in fiscal and
                       monetary policy. Mitchell Hutchins may also seek to
                       improve the Fund's yield by purchasing or selling
                       securities to take advantage of yield disparities among
                       similar or dissimilar money market instruments that
                       regularly occur in the money market.

                       There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its
                       investment objective. In periods of declining interest
                       rates the Fund's yield will tend to be somewhat higher
                       than prevailing market rates, and in periods of rising
                       interest rates the opposite will be true. Also, when

                       are falling, net cash inflows from the continuous sale of
                       Fund shares are likely to be invested in portfolio
                       instruments producing lower yields than the balance of
                       the Fund's portfolio, thereby reducing the Fund's yield.
                       In periods of rising interest rates, the opposite can be
                       true.
 
                       U.S. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES.  The U.S. government
                       securities in which the Fund may invest include direct
                       obligations of the U.S. Treasury (such as Treasury bills,
                       notes and bonds) and obligations issued or guaranteed by
                       U.S. government agencies and instrumentalities. The Fund
                       may invest in U.S. government securities that are
                       supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
In periods of          government (such as Government National Mortgage
declining interest     Association certificates), securities supported primarily
rates, the Fund's      or solely by the creditworthiness of the issuer (such as
yield will tend to     securities of the Resolution Funding Corporation and the
be somewhat higher     Tennessee Valley Authority) and securities that are
than prevailing        supported primarily or solely by specific pools of assets
market rates, and in   and the creditworthiness of a U.S. government-related
periods of rising      issuer (such as mortgage-backed securities issued by the
rates, lower.          Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation).

                       The Fund may also acquire securities issued or guaranteed
                       as to principal and interest by the U.S. government in
                       the form of custodial receipts that evidence ownership of
                       future interest payments, principal payments or both on
                       certain U.S. Treasury notes or bonds. Such notes and
                       bonds are held in custody by a bank on behalf of the
                       owners of such notes or bonds. These custodial receipts
                       are known by various names, including 'Treasury
                       Investment Growth Receipts' ('TIGRs') and 'Certificates
                       of Accrual on Treasury Securities' ('CATS'). The Fund
                       also may invest in separately traded principal and
                       interest components of securities issued or guaranteed by
                       the U.S. Treasury. The principal and interest components
                       of selected securities are traded independently under the
                       Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of
                       Securities ('STRIPS') program. Under the STRIPS program,
                       the principal and interest components are individually
                       numbered and separately issued by the U.S. Treasury at
                       the request of depository financial institutions, which
                       then trade the component parts independently.
 
                       VARIABLE AND FLOATING RATE SECURITIES.  The Fund may
                       purchase variable and floating rate securities with
                       remaining maturities in excess of 13 months issued by
                       U.S. government agencies or instrumentalities or

                       guaranteed by the U.S. government, or (if subject to a
                       demand feature exercisable within 13 months or less)
                       issued by U.S. companies. The yield on these securities
                       is adjusted in relation to changes in specific rates such
                       as the prime rate, and different securities may have
                       different adjustment rates. The Fund's investment in
                       these securities must comply with conditions established
                       by the SEC under which they may be considered to have
                       remaining maturities of 13 months or less. Certain of
                       these obligations carry a demand feature that gives the
                       Fund the right to tender them back to the issuer or a
                       remarketing agent and receive the principal amount of the
                       security prior to maturity. The demand feature may or may
                       not be backed by a letter of credit or other credit
                       support arrangement provided by a bank or other financial
                       institution, the credit quality of which affects the
                       credit quality of the obligation.

                       Securities purchased by the Fund may include variable
                       amount master demand notes, which are unsecured
                       redeemable obligations that permit investment of varying
                       amounts at fluctuating interest rates under a direct
                       agreement between the issuer and the Fund. The principal
                       amount of these notes may be increased from time to time
                       by the parties (subject to specified maximums) or
                       decreased by the Fund or the issuer. These notes are
                       payable on demand and are typically unrated.

                       REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS.  Repurchase agreements are
                       transactions in which the Fund purchases securities from
                       a bank or recognized securities dealer and simultaneously
                       commits to resell the securities to that bank or dealer
                       at an agreed-upon date and price reflecting a market rate
                       of interest unrelated to the coupon rate or maturity of
                       the purchased securities. Although repurchase agreements
                       carry certain risks not associated with direct
                       investments in securities, including possible decline in
                       the market value of the underlying securities and delays
                       and costs to the Fund if the other party to the
                       repurchase agreement becomes insolvent, the Fund intends
                       to enter into repurchase agreements only with banks and
                       dealers in transactions believed by Mitchell Hutchins to
                       present minimal credit risks in accordance with
                       guidelines established by the Fund's board of directors.

   
                       LENDING OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES.  The Fund is authorized
                       to lend up to 33 1/3% of the total value of its portfolio
                       securities to broker-dealers or institutional investors
                       that Mitchell Hutchins deems qualified. Lending

                       OTHER INFORMATION.  The Fund may borrow money for
                       temporary purposes, but not in excess of 10% of its total
                       assets and may engage in reverse repurchase agreements
                       with respect to up to 5% of its net assets. The Fund may
                       not invest more than 10% of its net assets in illiquid
                       securities, including repurchase agreements with
                       maturities in excess of seven days.

                       without the approval of the Fund's shareholders. Certain
                       other investment limitations, as described in the
                       Statement of Additional Information, also may not be
                       changed without shareholder approval. All other
                       investment policies may be changed by the Fund's board of
                       directors without shareholder approval.

                       reserves the right to charge a fee for wiring funds and

                       shares to pay that fee.

                       CHECK REDEMPTIONS.  Shareholders may redeem Fund shares
                       by drawing a check, a supply of which may be obtained
                       through PaineWebber, for $500 or more against their Fund
                       accounts. When the check is presented to the Fund's
                       transfer agent ('Transfer Agent') for payment, the
                       Transfer Agent will cause the Fund to redeem sufficient
                       shares to cover the amount of the check. The shareholder
                       will continue to receive dividends on those shares until
                       the check is presented to the Transfer Agent for payment.
                       Cancelled checks are not returned; however, shareholders
                       may obtain photocopies of their cancelled checks upon
                       request. If a shareholder has insufficient shares to
                       cover a check, the check will be returned to the payee
                       marked 'nonsufficient funds.' Checks written in amounts

                       PaineWebber may impose an administrative service fee of
                       up to $5.00 for processing redemptions paid by check.

   
                       Shareholders who send redemption orders to their
                       PaineWebber Investment Executives or correspondent firms
                       by mail are responsible for ensuring that the request for
                       redemption is received in good order. 'Good order' means
                       that the request must be accompanied by (a) a letter of
                       instruction or a stock assignment specifying the number
                       of shares or amount of investment to be redeemed (or that
                       all shares credited to a Fund account be redeemed),

                       exact names in which they are registered, (b) a guarantee
                       of the signature of each registered owner by an eligible
                       institution acceptable to the Transfer Agent and in
                       accordance with SEC rules, such as a commercial bank,
                       trust company or member of a recognized stock exchange
                       and (c) other supporting legal documents for estates,

                       corporations.
    

   
                       ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON REDEMPTIONS.  Shareholders with
                       questions about redemption requirements should consult
                       their PaineWebber Investment Executives or correspondent
                       firms. Shareholders who redeem all their shares will
                       receive cash credits to their PaineWebber accounts for
                       dividends earned on those shares through the day before
                       redemption. The redemption price may be more or less than
                       the purchase price, although the Fund anticipates that
                       its net asset value per share will normally be $1.00 per
                       share. Because the Fund incurs certain fixed costs in
                       maintaining shareholder accounts, the Fund reserves the
                       right to redeem all Fund shares in any shareholder
                       account of less than $500 net asset value. If the Fund
                       elects to do so, it will notify the shareholder and
                       provide the shareholder with an opportunity to increase
                       the amount invested to $500 or more within 60 days of the
                       notice. This notice may appear on the shareholder's
                       account statement. If a shareholder requests redemption

                       Valuation of Shares

   
                       The Fund uses its best efforts to maintain its net asset
                       value at $1.00 per share. Net asset value per share is
                       determined by dividing the value of the securities held
                       by the Fund plus any cash or other assets minus all
                       liabilities by the number of Fund shares outstanding. The
                       Fund's net asset value is computed once each Business Day
                       at 2:00 p.m., Eastern time.
    

   
                       The Fund values its portfolio securities using the
                       amortized cost method of valuation, under which market
                       value is approximated by amortizing the difference
Dividends accrue to    between the acquisition cost and value at maturity of an
shareholder accounts   instrument on a straight-line basis over its remaining
daily and are          life. All cash, receivables and current daily and
automatically paid     payables are carried at their face value. Other assets
in additional Fund     are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by
shares monthly.        or under the direction of the Fund's board of directors.
    


                       Dividends and Taxes

                       DIVIDENDS.  Each Business Day, the Fund declares as
                       dividends all of its net investment income. Shares begin
                       earning dividends on the day of purchase; dividends are
                       accrued to shareholder accounts daily and are
                       automatically paid in additional Fund shares monthly.
                       Shares do not earn dividends on the day of redemption.
                       Net investment income includes accrued interest and
                       earned discount (including both original issue and market
                       discounts), less amortization of premium and accrued
                       expenses. The Fund distributes any net short-term capital
                       gain annually, but may make more frequent distributions
                       of such gain if necessary to maintain its net asset value
                       per share at $1.00 or to avoid income or excise taxes.
                       The Fund does not expect to realize net long-term capital
                       gain and thus does not anticipate payment of any
                       long-term capital gain distributions.

                       TAXES.  The Fund intends to continue to qualify for
                       treatment as a regulated investment company under the
                       Internal Revenue Code so that it will be relieved of
                       federal income tax on that part of its investment company
                       taxable income (consisting generally of net investment
                       income and net short-term capital gain, if any) that is
                       distributed to its shareholders.

                       Dividends paid by the Fund generally are taxable to its
                       shareholders as ordinary income, notwithstanding that
                       such dividends are paid in

                       on their income generally will not be required to pay tax
                       on amounts distributed to them.

                       The Fund notifies its shareholders following the end of
                       each calendar year of the amount of all dividends paid
                       that year.

                       The Fund is required to withhold 31% of all dividends
                       payable to any individuals and certain other noncorporate
                       shareholders who do not provide the Fund with a correct
                       taxpayer identification number. Withholding at that rate
                       also is required from dividends payable to such
                       shareholders who otherwise are subject to backup
                       withholding.

                       The foregoing is only a summary of some of the important
                       federal income tax considerations generally affecting the
                       Fund and its shareholders; see the Statement of
                       Additional Information for a further discussion. There
                       may be other federal, state or local tax considerations
                       applicable to a particular investor. Prospective
                       shareholders are urged to consult their tax advisers.

                       Management

                       The Fund's board of directors, as part of its overall
                       management responsibility, oversees various organizations
                       responsible for the Fund's day-to-day management.

                       and, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996, the Fund's
                       effective advisory and administration fee paid to
                       PaineWebber was equal to .37% of the Fund's average daily
                       net assets. PaineWebber (not the Fund) pays Mitchell
                       Hutchins fees for its sub-advisory and sub-administrative
                       services, in an aggregate annual amount equal to 20% of
                       the fee received by PaineWebber from the Fund for
                       advisory and administrative services.
    

   
                       The Fund pays PaineWebber an annual fee of $4.00 per
                       active Fund account, plus certain out-of-pocket expenses,
                       for certain services not performed by the Transfer Agent.
                       The Fund also incurs other expenses. For the fiscal year
                       ended March 31, 1996, the Fund's ratio of expenses as a
                       percentage of average net assets was .60%.

                       From time to time the Fund may advertise its 'yield' and
                       'effective yield.' Both yield figures are based on
                       historical earnings and are not intended to indicate
                       future performance. The 'yield' of the Fund is the income
                       on an investment in the Fund over a specified seven-day
                       period. This income is then 'annualized' (that is,
                       assumed to be earned each week over a 52-week period) and
                       shown as a percentage of the investment. The 'effective
                       yield' is calculated similarly but, when annualized, the
                       income earned is assumed to be reinvested. The 'effective
                       yield' will be higher than the 'yield' because of the
                       compounding effect of this assumed reinvestment.

                       The Fund may also advertise other performance data, which
                       may consist of the annual or cumulative return (including
                       realized net short-term capital gain, if any) earned on a
                       hypothetical investment in the Fund since it began
                       operations on May 1, 1978, or for shorter periods. This
                       return data may or may not assume reinvestment of
                       dividends (compounding).
The Fund may
advertise its          The performance of shareholder accounts with small
'yield' and            balances will differ from the quoted performance because
'effective yield.'     daily income for each shareholder account is rounded to
The 'effective         the nearest whole penny. Accordingly, very small
yield' assumes         shareholder accounts assumes (approximately $33 or lower
dividends are          at current interest rates) which generate less than
reinvested.            1/2 cent per day of income will earn no dividends.

                       General Information

   
                       The Fund is registered with the SEC as a diversified,
                       open-end management investment company and was
                       incorporated in Maryland on January 20, 1978. The Fund
                       has an authorized capitalization of 20 billion shares of
                       $0.001 par value common stock. The board of directors is
                       authorized to establish different series and classes of
                       shares, although at present the Fund offers a single
                       series with a single class of shares. Each share has one
                       vote with respect to matters upon which a shareholder
                       vote is required; voting rights are non-cumulative.
    

                       The Fund does not hold annual shareholder meetings. There
                       normally will be no meetings of shareholders to elect
                       directors unless fewer than a majority of the directors
                       holding office have been elected by shareholders. The
                       directors are required to call a meeting of shareholders
                       when requested in writing to do so by the shareholders of
                       record holding at least 25% of the Fund's outstanding
                       shares. Each share of the Fund has equal voting, dividend
                       and liquidation rights.

                       CERTIFICATES.  To avoid additional operating expenses and

                       Fund activity in a quarter was reinvestment of dividends,
                       the activity may be reported on a quarterly rather than

                      STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
 
   
     PaineWebber Cashfund, Inc. ('Fund') is a professionally managed, no load
money market fund designed to provide investors with current income, stability
of principal and high liquidity. The Fund's investment adviser, administrator
and distributor is PaineWebber Incorporated ('PaineWebber'); its sub-adviser is
Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ('Mitchell Hutchins'), a wholly owned
subsidiary of PaineWebber. Mitchell Hutchins also serves as the Fund's
sub-administrator. This Statement of Additional Information is not a prospectus
and should be read only in conjunction with the Fund's current Prospectus, dated
August 1, 1996. A copy of the Prospectus may be obtained by contacting any
PaineWebber Investment Executive or correspondent firm or by calling toll-free
1-800-441-7756. This Statement of Additional Information is dated August 1,
1996.
    
 
                      INVESTMENT POLICIES AND RESTRICTIONS
 
     The following supplements the information contained in the Prospectus
concerning the Fund's investment policies and limitations.
 
   
     YIELDS AND RATINGS OF MONEY MARKET INSTRUMENTS.  The yields on the money
market instruments in which the Fund invests (such as commercial paper and bank
obligations) are dependent on a variety of factors, including general money
market conditions, conditions in the particular market for the obligation, the
financial condition of the issuer, the size of the offering, the maturity of the
obligation and the ratings of the issue. The ratings of nationally recognized
statistical rating organizations ('NRSROs') represent their opinions as to the
quality of the obligations they undertake to rate. Ratings, however, are general
and are not absolute standards of quality. Consequently, obligations with the
same rating, maturity and interest rate may have different market prices.
Subsequent to its purchase by the Fund, an issue may cease to be rated or its
rating may be reduced. In the event that a security in the Fund's portfolio
ceases to be a 'First Tier Security,' as defined in the Prospectus, or Mitchell
Hutchins becomes aware that a security has received a rating below the second
highest rating by any NRSRO, Mitchell Hutchins or the Fund's board of directors
will consider whether the Fund should continue to hold the obligation. A First
Tier security rated in the highest short-term rating category by a single NRSRO
at the time of purchase that subsequently receives a rating below the highest
rating category from a different NRSRO will continue to be considered a First
Tier security.
    
 
     REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS.  As stated in the Prospectus, the Fund may enter
into repurchase agreements with respect to any security in which it is
authorized to invest, except that securities subject to repurchase agreements
may have maturities in excess of 13 months. The Fund maintains custody of the

underlying securities prior to their repurchase; thus, the obligation of the
bank or securities dealer to pay the repurchase price on the date agreed to is,
in effect, secured by such securities. If the value of these securities is less
than the repurchase price, plus any agreed-upon additional amount, the other
party to the agreement must provide additional collateral so that at all times
the collateral is at least equal to the repurchase price, plus any agreed-upon
additional amount. The difference between the total amount to be received upon
repurchase of the

<PAGE>
securities and the price that was paid by the Fund upon acquisition is accrued
as interest and included in the Fund's net investment income.
 
     Repurchase agreements carry certain risks not associated with direct
investments in securities. The Fund intends to enter into repurchase agreements
only with banks and dealers in transactions believed by Mitchell Hutchins to
present minimal credit risks in accordance with guidelines established by the
Fund's board of directors. Mitchell Hutchins will review and monitor the
creditworthiness of those institutions under the board's general supervision.
 
   
     REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS.  The Fund may enter into reverse repurchase
agreements up to an aggregate value of not more than 5% of its net assets. Such
agreements involve the sale of securities held by the Fund subject to its
agreement to repurchase the securities at an agreed-upon date and price
reflecting a market rate of interest. Such agreements are considered to be
borrowings and may be entered into only for temporary or emergency purposes.
While a reverse repurchase agreement is outstanding, the Fund will maintain with
its custodian in a segregated account cash, U.S. government securities or other
liquid, high-grade debt obligations, marked to market daily, in an amount at
least equal to the Fund's obligation under the reverse repurchase agreement.
    
 
     ILLIQUID SECURITIES.  The Fund will not invest more than 10% of its net
assets in illiquid securities. The term 'illiquid securities' for this purpose
means securities that cannot be disposed of within seven days in the ordinary
course of business at approximately the amount at which the Fund has valued the
securities and includes, among other things, repurchase agreements maturing in
more than seven days and restricted securities other than those Mitchell
Hutchins has determined to be liquid pursuant to guidelines established by the
Fund's board of directors. Commercial paper issues in which the Fund may invest
include securities issued by major corporations without registration under the
Securities Act of 1933 ('1933 Act') in reliance on the exemption from such
registration afforded by Section 3(a)(3) thereof and commercial paper issued in
reliance on the so-called 'private placement' exemption from registration which
is afforded by section 4(2) of the 1933 Act ('Section 4(2) paper'). Section 4(2)
paper is restricted as to disposition under the federal securities laws in that
any resale must similarly be made in an exempt transaction. Section 4(2) paper
is normally resold to other institutional investors through or with the
assistance of investment dealers who make a market in Section 4(2) paper, thus
providing liquidity.
 
     Not all restricted securities are illiquid. In recent years a large
institutional market has developed for certain securities that are not

registered under the 1933 Act, including private placements, repurchase
agreements, commercial paper, foreign securities and corporate bonds and notes.
These instruments are often restricted securities because the securities are
sold in transactions not requiring registration. Institutional investors
generally will not seek to sell these instruments to the general public, but
instead will often depend either on an efficient institutional market in which
such unregistered securities can be readily resold or on an issuer's ability to
honor a demand for repayment. Therefore, the fact that there are contractual or
legal restrictions on resale to the general public or certain institutions is
not dispositive of the liquidity of such investments.
 
     Rule 144A under the 1933 Act establishes a 'safe harbor' from the
registration requirements of the 1933 Act for resales of certain securities to
qualified institutional buyers. Institutional markets for restricted securities
have developed as a result of Rule 144A, providing both readily ascertainable
values for restricted securities and the ability to liquidate an investment to
satisfy share redemption orders. Such markets include automated
 
                                       2
<PAGE>
systems for the trading, clearance and settlement of unregistered securities,
such as the PORTAL System sponsored by the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. ('NASD'). An insufficient number of qualified institutional buyers
interested in purchasing Rule 144A-eligible restricted securities held by the
Fund, however, could affect adversely the marketability of such portfolio
securities and the Fund might be unable to dispose of such securities promptly
or at favorable prices.
 
     The Fund's board of directors has delegated the function of making
day-to-day determinations of liquidity to Mitchell Hutchins, pursuant to
guidelines approved by the board. Mitchell Hutchins takes into account a number
of factors in reaching liquidity decisions, including (1) the frequency of
trades for the security, (2) the number of dealers that make quotes for the
security, (3) the number of dealers that have undertaken to make a market in the
security, (4) the number of other potential purchasers and (5) the nature of the
security and how trading is effected (e.g., the time needed to sell the
security, how offers are solicited and the mechanics of transfer). Mitchell
Hutchins monitors the liquidity of restricted securities in the Fund's portfolio
and reports periodically on such decisions to the board of directors.
 
   
     LENDING OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES.  As indicated in the Prospectus, the Fund
is authorized to lend up to 33 1/3% of its portfolio securities to
broker-dealers or institutional investors that Mitchell Hutchins deems
qualified, but only when the borrower maintains acceptable collateral with the
Fund's custodian, marked to market daily, in an amount at least equal to the
market value of the securities loaned, plus accrued interest and dividends.
Acceptable collateral is limited to cash, U.S. government securities and
irrevocable letters of credit that meet certain guidelines established by
Mitchell Hutchins. In determining whether to lend securities to a particular
broker-dealer or institutional investor, Mitchell Hutchins will consider, and
during the period of the loan will monitor, all relevant facts and
circumstances, including the creditworthiness of the borrower. The Fund will
retain authority to terminate any loan at any time. The Fund may pay reasonable

administrative and custodial fees in connection with a loan and may pay a
negotiated portion of the interest earned on the cash or money market
instruments held as collateral to the borrower or placing broker. The Fund will
receive reasonable interest on the loan or a flat fee from the borrower and
amounts equivalent to any dividends, interest or other distributions on the
securities loaned. The Fund will retain record ownership of loaned securities to
exercise beneficial rights, such as voting and subscription rights and rights to
dividends, interest or other distributions, when regaining such rights is
considered to be in the Fund's interest.
    
 
   
     INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS.  The Fund will not:
    
 
   
          (1) purchase securities of any one issuer if, as a result, more than
              5% of the Fund's total assets would be invested in securities of
              that issuer or the Fund would own or hold more than 10% of the
              outstanding voting securities of that issuer, except that up to
              25% of the Fund's total assets may be invested without regard to
              this limitation, and except that this limitation does not apply to
              securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its
              agencies and instrumentalities or to securities issued by other
              investment companies.
    
 
   
              The following interpretation applies to, but is not a part of,
              this fundamental restriction: Mortgage- and asset-backed securites
              will not be considered to have been issued by the same issuer by
              reason of the securities having the same sponsor, and mortgage-and
              asset-backed securities issued by a finance or other special
              purpose subsidiary that are not guaranteed by the parent company
              will be considered to be issued by a separate issuer from the
              parent company.
    
 
                                       3
<PAGE>
   
          (2) purchase any security if, as a result of that purchase, 25% or
              more of the Fund's total assets would be invested in securities of
              issuers having their principal business activities in the same
              industry, except that this limitation does not apply to securities
              issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or
              instrumentalities or to municipal securities or to certificates of
              deposit and bankers' acceptances of domestic branches of U.S.
              banks.
    
 
   
              The following interpretation applies to, but is not a part of,
              this fundamental restriction: With respect to this limitation,

              domestic and foreign banking will be considered to be different
              industries.
    
 
   
          (3) issue senior securities or borrow money, except as permitted under
              the Investment Company Act of 1940 ('1940 Act') and then not in
              excess of 33 1/3% of the Fund's total assets (including the amount
              of the senior securities issued but reduced by any liabilities not
              constituting senior securities) at the time of the issuance or
              borrowing, except that the Fund may borrow up to an additional 5%
              of its total assets (not including the amount borrowed) for
              temporary or emergency purposes.
    
 
   
          (4) make loans, except through loans of portfolio securities or
              through repurchase agreements, provided that for purposes of this
              restriction, the acquisition of bonds, debentures, other debt
              securities or instruments, or participations or other interests
              therein and investments in government obligations, commercial
              paper, certificates of deposit, bankers' acceptances or similar
              instruments will not be considered the making of a loan.
    
 
   
          (5) engage in the business of underwriting securities of other
              issuers, except to the extent that the Fund might be considered an
              underwriter under the federal securities laws in connection with
              its disposition of portfolio securities.
    
 
   
          (6) purchase or sell real estate, except that investments in
              securities of issuers that invest in real estate and investments
              in mortgage-backed securities, mortgage participations or other
              instruments supported by interests in real estate are not subject
              to this limitation, and except that the Fund may exercise rights
              under agreements relating to such securities, including the right
              to enforce security interests and to hold real estate acquired by
              reason of such enforcement until that real estate can be
              liquidated in an orderly manner.
    
 
   
          (7) purchase or sell physical commodities unless acquired as a result
              of owning securities or other instruments, but the Fund may
              purchase, sell or enter into financial options and futures,
              forward and spot currency contracts, swap transactions and other
              financial contracts or derivative instruments.
    
 
   
     The foregoing fundamental investment limitations cannot be changed without

the affirmative vote of the lesser of (a) more than 50% of the outstanding
shares of the Fund or (b) 67% or more of the shares present at a shareholders'
meeting if more than 50% of the outstanding shares are represented at the
meeting in person or by proxy. If a percentage restriction is adhered to at the
time of an investment or transaction, a later increase or decrease in percentage
resulting from changing values of portfolio securities or amount of total assets
will not be considered a violation of any of the foregoing limitations.
    
 
                                       4
<PAGE>
   
     The following non-fundamental investment restrictions may be changed by
vote of the Fund's board of directors without shareholder approval:
    
 
   
     The Fund may not:
    
 
   
          (1) purchase securities on margin, except for short-term credit
              necessary for clearance of portfolio transactions and except that
              the Fund may make margin deposits in connection with its use of
              financial options and futures, forward and spot currency
              contracts, swap transactions and other financial contracts or
              derivative instruments.
    
 
   
          (2) engage in short sales of securities or maintain a short position,
              except that the Fund may (a) sell short 'against the box' and (b)
              maintain short positions in connection with its use of financial
              options and futures, forward and spot currency contracts, swap
              transactions and other financial contracts or derivative
              instruments.
    
 
   
          (3) invest in oil, gas or mineral exploration or development programs
              or leases, except that investments in securities of issuers that
              invest in such programs or leases and investments in asset-backed
              securities supported by receivables generated from such programs
              or leases are not subject to this prohibition.
    
 
   
          (4) purchase securities of other investment companies, except to the
              extent permitted by the 1940 Act and except that this limitation
              does not apply to securities received or acquired as dividends,
              through offers of exchange, or as a result of reorganization,

Services provided by PaineWebber under the PaineWebber Contract, some of which
may be delegated to Mitchell Hutchins, as discussed below, include the provision
of a continuous investment program for the Fund and supervision of all matters
relating to the operation of the Fund. Under the PaineWebber Contract,
PaineWebber is also obligated to distribute the Fund's shares on an agency, or
'best efforts,' basis under which the Fund only issues such shares as are
actually sold. Shares of the Fund are offered continuously. Under the
PaineWebber Contract, during the fiscal years ended March 31, 1996, March 31,
1995 and March 31, 1994, the Fund paid (or accrued) to PaineWebber investment
advisory and administrative fees in the amount of $16,998,964, $13,839,569, and
$13,665,261, respectively.
    
 
   
     Under a service agreement that is reviewed annually by the Fund's board of
directors, PaineWebber provides certain services to the Fund not otherwise
provided by the Fund's transfer agent. Pursuant to the service agreement, during
the fiscal years ended March 31, 1996, March 31, 1995 and March 31, 1994, the
Fund paid (or accrued) to PaineWebber $2,762,836, $2,551,016 and $2,379,604,

     Under a contract with PaineWebber dated May 24, 1988 ('Sub-Administration
Contract'), Mitchell Hutchins also serves as the Fund's sub-administrator. Under
the Sub-Administration Contract, PaineWebber (not the Fund) pays Mitchell
Hutchins 20% of the fees received by PaineWebber under the PaineWebber Contract,
such amount to be paid monthly and reduced by any amount paid by PaineWebber in
each such month under the MH Sub-Advisory Contract. During the fiscal years
ended March 31, 1996, March 31, 1995 and March 31, 1994, PaineWebber paid (or
accrued) to Mitchell Hutchins sub-administration fees of $1,806,780, $1,332,667

and $1,308,276, respectively.
    
 
     Each of the advisory, sub-advisory and sub-administration contracts noted
above provides that the respective adviser, sub-adviser or sub-administrator, as
the case may be, shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law
or for any loss suffered by the Fund in connection with the performance of the
contract, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross
negligence on the part of such adviser, sub-adviser or sub-administrator in the
performance of its duties or from reckless disregard of its duties and
obligations thereunder. The PaineWebber Contract also provides that PaineWebber
shall not be liable for losses arising out of the receipt by PaineWebber of
inadequate consideration in connection with an order to purchase Fund shares
whether in the form of a fraudulent check, draft or wire; a check returned for
insufficient funds; or any other such inadequate consideration (hereinafter
'check losses'), except under the circumstances noted above, but the Fund shall
not be liable for check losses resulting from negligence on the part of
PaineWebber. Each of the advisory, sub-advisory and sub-administration contracts
is terminable by vote of the Fund's board of directors or by the holders of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund at any time without
penalty, on 60 days' written notice to the respective adviser, sub-adviser or
sub-administrator, as the case may be. Each of the advisory and sub-advisory
contracts may also be terminated by the respective adviser or sub-adviser on 90
days' written notice to the Fund. The sub-administration contract may also be
terminated by the sub-administrator on 60 days' written notice to the Fund. Each
of the advisory, sub-advisory and sub-administration contracts terminates
automatically upon its assignment.
 
     Under the terms of the PaineWebber Contract, the Fund bears all expenses
incurred in its operation that are not specifically assumed by PaineWebber.
Expenses borne by the Fund include the following: (a) the cost (including
brokerage commissions, if any) of securities purchased or sold by the Fund or
any losses incurred in connection therewith; (b) fees payable to and expenses
incurred on behalf of the Fund by PaineWebber; (c) filing fees and expenses
relating to the registration and qualification of the Fund's shares under
federal or state securities laws and maintaining such registrations and
qualifications; (d) fees and salaries payable to the Fund's directors and
officers who are not officers or employees of PaineWebber or interested persons
(as defined in the 1940 Act) of any investment adviser or underwriter of the
Fund ('Independent Directors');
 
                                       14
<PAGE>
(e) taxes (including any income or franchise taxes) and governmental fees; (f)
costs of any liability, uncollectible items of deposit and other insurance or
fidelity bonds; (g) any costs, expenses or losses arising out of any liability
of or claim for damage or other relief asserted against the Fund for violation
of any law; (h) legal, accounting and auditing expenses, including legal fees of
special counsel for the Independent Directors; (i) charges of custodians,
transfer agents and other agents; (j) costs of preparing share certificates; (k)
expenses of setting in type and printing prospectuses, statements of additional
information and supplements thereto for existing shareholders, reports and
statements to shareholders and proxy materials; (l) any extraordinary expenses
(including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Fund; and (m) fees

and other expenses incurred in connection with membership in investment company
organizations.
 
   
     As required by various state regulations, PaineWebber will reimburse the
Fund if and to the extent that the aggregate operating expenses of the Fund
exceed applicable limits for the fiscal year. Currently, the most restrictive
such limit applicable to the Fund is 2.5% of the first $30 million of the Fund's
average daily net assets, 2.0% of the next $70 million of its average daily net
assets and 1.5% of its average daily net assets in excess of $100 million.
Certain expenses, such as brokerage commissions, taxes, interest and
extraordinary items are excluded from this limitation. No reimbursement pursuant
to such limitation was required for the fiscal years ended March 31, 1996, March
31, 1995 and March 31, 1994.
    
 
   
     The following table shows the approximate net assets as of April 30, 1996,

     Mitchell Hutchins personnel may invest in securities for their own accounts
pursuant to a code of ethics that describes the fiduciary duty owed to
shareholders of the PaineWebber mutual funds and other Mitchell Hutchins'
advisory accounts by all Mitchell Hutchins' directors, officers and employees,
establishes procedures for personal investing and restricts certain
transactions. For example, employee accounts generally must be maintained at
PaineWebber, personal trades in most securities require pre-clearance and
short-term trading and participation in initial public offerings generally are
prohibited. In addition, the code of ethics puts restrictions on the timing of
personal investing in relation to trades by PaineWebber funds and other Mitchell
Hutchins advisory clients.
    
 

                                       15
<PAGE>
                             PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
 
     The Fund purchases only securities with remaining maturities of 13 months
or less, except for securities subject to repurchase agreements. The Fund may
purchase variable rate and floating rate securities with remaining maturities of
more than 13 months so long as such securities comply with conditions
established by the Securities and Exchange Commission ('SEC') under which they
may be considered to have remaining maturities of 13 months or less.
 
   
     The Fund purchases portfolio securities from dealers and underwriters as
well as from issuers. Securities are usually traded on a net basis with dealers
acting as principal for their own accounts without a stated commission. Prices
paid to dealers in principal transactions generally include a 'spread,' which is
the difference between the prices at which the dealer is willing to purchase and
sell a specific security at the time. When securities are purchased directly
from an issuer, no commissions or discounts are paid. When securities are
purchased in underwritten offerings, they include a fixed amount of compensation
to the underwriter.
    
 
     The MH Sub-Advisory Contract authorizes Mitchell Hutchins (with the
approval of the Fund's board) to select brokers and dealers to execute purchases
and sales of the Fund's portfolio securities. It directs Mitchell Hutchins to
use its best efforts to obtain the best available price and the most favorable
execution with respect to all transactions for the Fund. To the extent that the
execution and price offered by more than one dealer are comparable, Mitchell
Hutchins may, in its discretion, effect transactions in portfolio securities
with dealers who provide the Fund with research, analysis, advice and similar
services. Although Mitchell Hutchins may receive certain research or execution
services in connection with these transactions, Mitchell Hutchins will not
purchase securities at a higher price or sell securities at a lower price than
would otherwise be paid if no weight was attributed to the services provided by
the executing dealer. Moreover, Mitchell Hutchins will not enter into any
explicit soft dollar arrangements relating to principal transactions and will
not receive in principal transactions the types of services which could be
purchased for hard dollars. Research services furnished by the dealers through
which or with which the Fund effects securities transactions may be used by
Mitchell Hutchins in advising other funds or accounts they advise and,
conversely, research services furnished to Mitchell Hutchins in connection with
other funds or accounts that Mitchell Hutchins advises may be used in advising
the Fund. During its past three fiscal years, the Fund has not paid any
brokerage commissions, nor has it allocated any transactions to dealers for
research, analysis, advice and similar services.
 
     Mitchell Hutchins may engage in agency transactions in OTC equity and debt
securities in return for research and execution services. These transactions are
entered into only in compliance with procedures ensuring that the transaction
(including commissions) is at least as favorable as it would have been if
effected directly with a market-maker that did not provide research or execution
services. These procedures include Mitchell Hutchins receiving multiple quotes
from dealers before executing the transactions on an agency basis.

 
   
     Investment decisions for the Fund and for other investment accounts managed
by Mitchell Hutchins are made independently of each other in light of differing
considerations for the various accounts. However, the same investment decision
may occasionally be made for the Fund and one or more of such accounts. In such
cases, simultaneous transactions are inevitable. Purchases or sales are then
averaged as to price and allocated between the Fund and such other account(s) as
to amount according to a formula deemed equitable to the Fund and such
account(s). While in some cases this practice could have a detrimental effect
upon the price or value of the security as far as the Fund is concerned or upon
its ability to complete its entire order, in other cases it is believed that
coordination and the ability to participate in volume transactions will be
beneficial to the Fund.

     Mitchell Hutchins may seek to obtain an undertaking from issuers of
commercial paper or dealers selling commercial paper to consider the repurchase
of such securities from the Fund prior to their maturity at their original cost
plus interest (sometimes adjusted to reflect the actual maturity of the
securities), if it believes that the Fund's anticipated need for liquidity makes
such actions desirable. Any such repurchase prior to maturity reduces the
possibility that the Fund would incur a capital loss in liquidating commercial
paper for which there is no established market, especially if interest rates
have risen since acquisition of the particular commercial paper.
 
                  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING REDEMPTIONS
 
     The Fund may suspend redemption privileges or postpone the date of payment
during any period (1) when the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. ('NYSE') is closed
or trading on the NYSE is restricted as determined by the SEC, (2) when an
emergency exists, as defined by the SEC, which makes it not reasonably
practicable for the Fund to dispose of securities owned by it or to determine
fairly the market value of its assets or (3) as the SEC may otherwise permit.
The redemption price may be more or less than the shareholder's cost, depending
on the market value of the Fund's portfolio at the time, although the Fund
attempts to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share.
 
     Under normal circumstances, the Fund will redeem shares when so requested
by a shareholder's broker-dealer other than PaineWebber by telegram or telephone
to PaineWebber. Such a redemption order will be executed at the net asset value
next determined after the order is received by PaineWebber. Redemptions of Fund
shares effected through a broker-dealer other than PaineWebber may be subject to
a service charge by that broker-dealer.
 
                              VALUATION OF SHARES
 
   
     The Fund uses its best efforts to maintain its net asset value at $1.00 per
share. The Fund's net asset value per share is determined by PFPC as of 2:00
p.m., Eastern time, on each Business Day. As defined in the Prospectus,
'Business Day' means any day on which PNC's Philadelphia offices, and the New

York City offices of PaineWebber and PaineWebber's bank, The Bank of New York,
are all open for business. One or more of these institutions will be closed on
the observance of the following holidays: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King,
Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor
Day, Columbus Day, Veterans' Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.
    
 
     The Fund values its portfolio securities in accordance with the amortized
cost method of valuation under Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. To use amortized
cost to value its portfolio securities, the Fund must adhere to certain
conditions under that Rule relating to the Fund's investments, some of which are
discussed in the Prospectus. Amortized cost is an approximation of market value,
whereby the difference between acquisition cost and value at maturity of the
instrument is amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the
instrument. The effect of changes in the market value of a security as a result
of fluctuating interest rates is not taken into account and thus the amortized
cost method of valuation may result in the value of a security being higher or
lower than its actual market value. In the event that a large number of
redemptions take place at a time when interest rates have increased, the Fund
might have to sell portfolio securities prior to maturity and at a price that
might not be as desirable.
 
                                       17
<PAGE>
     The Fund's board of directors has established procedures for the purpose of
maintaining a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share, which include a
review of the extent of any deviation of net asset value per share, based on
available market quotations, from the $1.00 amortized cost per share. Should
that deviation exceed 1/2 of 1%, the board of directors will promptly consider
whether any action should be initiated to eliminate or reduce material dilution
or other unfair results to shareholders. Such action may include redeeming
shares in kind, selling portfolio securities prior to maturity, reducing or
withholding dividends and utilizing a net asset value per share as determined by
using available market quotations. The Fund will maintain a dollar-weighted
average portfolio maturity of 90 days or less and will not purchase any
instrument with a remaining maturity greater than 13 months, will limit
portfolio investments, including repurchase agreements, to those U.S. dollar-
denominated instruments that are of high quality and that the directors
determine present minimal credit risks as advised by Mitchell Hutchins, and will
comply with certain reporting and recordkeeping procedures. There is no
assurance that constant net asset value per share will be maintained. In the
event amortized cost ceases to represent fair value, the board will take
appropriate action.
 
     In determining the approximate market value of portfolio investments, the
Fund may employ outside organizations, which may use a matrix or formula method
that takes into consideration market indices, matrices, yield curves and other
specific adjustments. This may result in the securities being valued at a price
different from the price that would have been determined had the matrix or
formula method not been used. All cash, receivables and current payables are
carried at their face value. Other assets, if any, are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by or under the direction of the board of directors.
 
                                     TAXES

 
     In order to continue to qualify for treatment as a regulated investment
company under the Internal Revenue Code, the Fund must distribute to its
shareholders for each taxable year at least 90% of its investment company
taxable income (consisting generally of net investment income and net short-term
capital gain, if any) and must meet several additional requirements. Among these
requirements are the following: (1) the Fund must derive at least 90% of its
gross income each taxable year from dividends, interest, payments with respect
to securities loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of securities and
certain other income; (2) the Fund must derive less than 30% of its gross income
each taxable year from the sale or other disposition of securities held for less
than three months; (3) at the close of each quarter of the Fund's taxable year,
at least 50% of the value of its total assets must be represented by cash and
cash items, U.S. government securities and other securities, with these other
securities limited, in respect of any one issuer, to an amount that does not
exceed 5% of the value of the Fund's total assets; and (4) at the close of each
quarter of the Fund's taxable year, not more than 25% of the value of its total
assets may be invested in securities (other than U.S. government securities) of
any one issuer.
 
                              CALCULATION OF YIELD
 
     The Fund computes its yield and effective yield quotations using
standardized methods required by the SEC. The Fund from time to time advertises
(1) its current yield based on a recently ended seven-day period, computed by
determining the net change, exclusive of capital changes, in the value of a
hypothetical pre-existing account having a balance of one share at the beginning
of the period, subtracting a hypothetical charge reflecting deductions from that
shareholder account, dividing the difference by the value of the account at the
beginning of the base period to obtain the base period return and then
multiplying the base period return by
 
                                       18
<PAGE>
(365/7), with the resulting yield figure carried to at least the nearest
hundredth of one percent; and (2) its effective yield based on the same
seven-day period by compounding the base period return by adding 1, raising the
sum to a power equal to (365/7) and subtracting 1 from the result, according to
the following formula:
 
                                                        365/7
             EFFECTIVE YIELD = [(BASE PERIOD RETURN + 1)     ] - 1
 
     Yield may fluctuate daily and does not provide a basis for determining
future yields. Because the yield of the Fund fluctuates, it cannot be compared
with yields on savings accounts or other investment alternatives that provide an
agreed-to or guaranteed fixed yield for a stated period of time. However, yield
information may be useful to an investor considering temporary investments in
money market instruments. In comparing the yield of one money market fund to
another, consideration should be given to each fund's investment policies,
including the types of investments made, the average maturity of the portfolio
securities and whether there are any special account charges that may reduce the
yield.
 

   
     The Fund's yield and effective yield for the seven-day period ended March
31, 1996 were 4.73% and 4.84%, respectively.
    
 
     OTHER INFORMATION. The Fund's performance data quoted in advertising and
other promotional materials ('Performance Advertisements') represent past
performance and are not intended to predict or indicate future results. The
return on an investment in the Fund will fluctuate. In Performance
Advertisements, the Fund may compare its yield with data published by Lipper
Analytical Services, Inc. for money funds ('Lipper'), CDA Investment
Technologies, Inc. ('CDA'), IBC/Donoghue's Money Market Fund Report
('Donoghue'), Wiesenberger Investment Companies Service ('Wiesenberger'),
Investment Company Data Inc. ('ICD') or Morningstar Mutual Funds
('Morningstar'), or with the performance of recognized stock and other indexes,
including (but not limited to) the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Index,
the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Morgan Stanley Capital World Index, the
Lehman Brothers Treasury Bond Index, the Lehman Brothers Government-Corporate
Bond Index, the Salomon Brothers Non-U.S. World Government Bond Index and the
Consumer Price Index as published by the U.S. Department of Commerce. The Fund
also may refer in such materials to mutual fund performance rankings and other
data, such as comparative asset, expense and fee levels, published by Lipper,
CDA, Donoghue, Wiesenberger, ICD or Morningstar. Performance Advertisements also
may refer to discussions of the Fund and comparative mutual fund data and
ratings reported in independent periodicals, including (but not limited to) THE
WALL STREET JOURNAL, MONEY Magazine, FORBES, BUSINESS WEEK, FINANCIAL WORLD,
BARRON'S, FORTUNE, THE NEW YORK TIMES, THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE, THE WASHINGTON POST
and THE KIPLINGER LETTERS.
 
     The Fund may include discussions or illustrations of the effects of
compounding in Performance Advertisements. 'Compounding' refers to the fact
that, if dividends on a Fund investment are reinvested by being paid in
additional Fund shares, any future income of the Fund would increase the value,
not only of the original Fund investment, but also of the additional Fund shares
received through reinvestment. As a result, the value of the Fund investment
would increase more quickly than if dividends had been paid in cash.
 
     The Fund may also compare its performance with the performance of bank
certificates of deposit (CDs) as measured by the CDA Investment Technologies,
Inc. Certificate of Deposit Index and the Bank Rate Monitor National Index and
the averages of yields of CDs of major banks published by Banxquotes (R) Money
Markets. In comparing the Fund's performance to CD performance, investors should
keep in mind that bank CDs are insured in whole or in part by an agency of the
U.S. government and offer fixed principal and fixed or variable
 
                                       19
<PAGE>
rates of interest, and that bank CD yields may vary depending on the financial
institution offering the CD and prevailing interest rates. Fund shares are not
insured or guaranteed by the U.S. government and returns will fluctuate. While
the Fund seeks to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share, there
can be no assurance that it will be able to do so.

Item 27. Indemnification

       


   
     Article Eleventh of the Articles of Incorporation provides that the
directors and officers of the Registrant shall not be liable to the Registrant
or to any of its stockholders for money damages to the maximum extent permitted
by applicable law. Article Eleventh also provides that any repeal or
modification of Article Eleventh or adoption, or modification of any other
provision of the Articles or By-Laws inconsistent with Article Eleventh shall be
prospective only, to the extent that any such repeal or modification would, if
applied retroactively, adversely affect any limitation on the liability of any
director or officer of the Registrant or indemnification available to any person
covered by these provisions with respect to any act or omission which occurred
prior to such repeal, modification or adoption.
    

     Section 10.01 of Article 10 of the By-Laws provides that the Registrant
shall indemnify its present and past directors, officers, employees and agents,
and any persons who are serving or have served at the request of the Registrant
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust, or enterprise, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

     Section 10.02 of Article 10 of the By-Laws further provides that the
Registrant may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or
was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant, or is or was
serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer or employee or
agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any
such capacity or arising out of his status

                                      C-3
<PAGE>
as such, whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify him
against such liability.

     Section 9 of the Investment Advisory, Administration and Distribution
Contract between Registrant and PaineWebber Incorporated ("PaineWebber")
provides that PaineWebber shall not be liable for any error of judgment or
mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Registrant in connection with the
matters to which the Contract relates, except a loss resulting from willful
misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the performance of its
duties or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations and duties under the
Contract.

     Section 7 of the Sub-Advisory Contract between PaineWebber and Mitchell
Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ("Mitchell Hutchins") provides that Mitchell
Hutchins will not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for
any loss suffered by PaineWebber or by the Registrant or its shareholders in
connection with the performance of the Contract, except a loss resulting from
willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the
performance of its duties or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations or
duties under the Contract.

     Section 8 of the Sub-Administration Contract between PaineWebber and
Mitchell Hutchins contains provisions similar to Section 9 of the Investment

Advisory, Administration and Distribution Contract between the Registrant and
PaineWebber.

     Section 7 of the Service Contract between Registrant and PaineWebber
provides that PaineWebber shall be indemnified and held harmless by the
Registrant against all liabilities, except those arising out of bad faith, gross
negligence, willful misfeasance or reckless disregard of its duties under the
Service Contract.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, may be provided to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Registrant, pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise,
the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
persons of the Registrant in connection with the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding or payment pursuant to any insurance policy) is
asserted against the Registrant by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question

                                      C-4
<PAGE>
whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 28. Business and Other Connections of Investment Adviser
