PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Premium Account Fund,
   1285 Avenue of the Americas,
      New York, New York 10019.

Dear Sirs:

     In connection with the proposed filing of a notice pursuant to Rule 24f-2
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 with respect to 2,226,256,068 shares
(the "Shares") of beneficial interest without par value of PaineWebber/Kidder,
Peabody Premium Account Fund, a Massachusetts business trust (the "Trust"), we,
as your counsel, have examined such trust records, certificates and other
documents, and such questions of law, as we have considered necessary or
appropriate for the purposes of this opinion.

     Upon the basis of such examination, we advise you that, in our opinion,
the Shares were validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

     The foregoing opinion is limited to the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, and we are expressing no opinion as to the effect of the laws of
any other jurisdiction.  With respect to all matters under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts, we have relied upon the opinion dated May 27,
1992 of Bingham, Dana & Gould, and our opinion is subject to the same
assumptions with respect to such matters as are contained in such opinion of
Bingham, Dana & Gould.

     Also, we have relied as to certain matters on information obtained from
public officials, officers of the Trust and other sources believed by us to be
responsible.

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and
Exchange Commission in connection with the Trust's notice referred to above.  In
giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of
persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933.

                                       Very truly yours,

                                       /s/ Sullivan & Cromwell
