                     THE FUNDS AND THEIR INVESTMENT POLICIES

      Each fund's  investment  objective may not be changed without  shareholder
approval.  Except where noted,  the other  investment  policies of a fund may be
changed by its board without shareholder  approval.  As with other mutual funds,
there is no assurance that a fund will achieve its investment objective.

      Each fund is a money market fund that invests in high quality money market
instruments that have, or are deemed to have,  remaining maturities of 13 months
or less. Money market  instruments are short-term  debt-obligations  and similar
securities.  They also  include  longer term bonds that have  variable  interest
rates or other special features that give them the financial  characteristics of
short-term  debt.  Each fund may purchase only those  obligations  that Mitchell
Hutchins  determines,  pursuant  to  procedures  adopted by its  board,  present
minimal  credit  risks and are "First Tier  Securities"  as defined in Rule 2a-7
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("Investment Company Act").
Each fund maintains a dollar-weighted  average portfolio  maturity of 90 days or
less.

MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO

      Money  Market  Portfolio's  investment  objective  is to  provide  maximum
current income consistent with liquidity and conservation of capital. The fund's
investments include (1) U.S. and foreign government securities,  (2) obligations
of U.S. and foreign banks, (3) commercial paper and other short-term obligations
of U.S. and foreign corporations, partnerships, trusts and similar entities, (4)
repurchase agreements and (5) investment company securities.

      The fund may invest in  obligations  (including  certificates  of deposit,
bankers' acceptances, time deposits and similar obligations) of U.S. and foreign
banks only if the institution has total assets at the time of purchase in excess
of $1.5 billion. The fund's investments in non-negotiable time deposits of these
institutions  will be considered  illiquid if they have maturities  greater than
seven calendar days.

      The fund  generally  may invest no more than 5% of its total assets in the
securities of a single issuer (other than U.S.  government  securities),  except
that the fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in First Tier  Securities
(defined  below) of a single issuer for a period of up to three  business  days.
The fund may  purchase  only U.S.  dollar  denominated  obligations  of  foreign
issuers.

      The fund may  invest up to 10% of its net assets in  illiquid  securities.
The fund may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. The
fund  may  lend  its  portfolio   securities  to  qualified   broker-dealers  or
institutional investors in an amount up to 33 1/3% of its total assets. The fund
may borrow from banks or through  reverse  repurchase  agreements  for temporary
purposes,  but not in excess of 10% of its total  assets.  The costs  associated
with  borrowing  may reduce the  fund's net  income.  The fund may invest in the
securities of other investment companies.

U.S. GOVERNMENT PORTFOLIO

      U.S.  Government  Portfolio's  investment  objective is to provide maximum
current income  consistent with liquidity and the  conservation of capital.  The
fund invests in U.S. government securities.  Under investment guidelines adopted
by its  board,  the fund  currently  invests  only in  securities,  such as U.S.
Treasury bills and notes and Ginnie Mae (also known as the  Government  National
Mortgage Association) certificates, that are backed by the full faith and credit
of the United States, in repurchase agreements secured by such securities and in
the  securities  of  other  investment  companies  that  invest  only  in  these
instruments.

      The fund may  invest up to 10% of its net assets in  illiquid  securities.
The fund may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. The
fund  may  lend  its  portfolio   securities  to  qualified   broker-dealers  or
institutional investors in an amount up to 33 1/3% of its total assets. The fund
may borrow from banks or through  reverse  repurchase  agreements  for temporary
purposes,  but not in excess of 10% of its total  assets.  The costs  associated
with  borrowing  may reduce the  fund's net  income.  The fund may invest in the
securities of other investment companies.

TAX-FREE FUND

      Tax Free Fund's investment  objective is to provide maximum current income
exempt from federal income tax consistent  with  liquidity and  conservation  of
capital.  The fund  invests  substantially  all of its  assets  in money  market
instruments  issued by  states,  municipalities,  public  authorities  and other
issuers,  the  interest on which is exempt from federal  income tax  ("municipal
securities").  The fund also may purchase  participation  interests in municipal
securities. Participation interests are pro rata interests in securities held by
others.

      Under normal  market  conditions,  the fund intends to invest in municipal
securities that pay AMT exempt interest -- that is, interest that is not an item
of tax preference for purposes of the federal  alternative  minimum tax ("AMT").
The fund,  however,  may invest up to 20% of its total assets in securities that
pay  interest  that is subject to the AMT if, in  Mitchell  Hutchins'  judgment,
market conditions warrant.

      The fund  generally  may invest no more than 5% of its total assets in the
securities of a single issuer (other than U.S.  government  securities),  except
that the fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in First Tier  Securities
(defined  below) of a single issuer for a period of up to three  business  days.
The fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets in illiquid securities. The fund
may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. The fund may
lend its  portfolio  securities  to qualified  broker-dealers  or  institutional
investors  in an amount up to 33 1/3% of its total  assets.  The fund may borrow
from banks or through reverse repurchase agreements for temporary purposes,  but
not in excess of 10% of its total assets.  The costs  associated  with borrowing
may reduce the fund's net income. The fund may invest in the securities of other
investment companies.

CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL MONEY FUND

      California  Municipal  Money  Fund's  investment  objective  is to provide
maximum  current income exempt from federal  income tax and California  personal
income tax consistent  with liquidity and  conservation  of capital.  Except for
temporary  purposes,  the fund  invests at least 80% and seeks to invest 100% of
its net assets in municipal  securities  issued by the State of California,  its
municipalities  and  public  authorities  and  other  issuers  if the  municipal
securities  pay  interest  that is exempt  from  federal  income  tax as well as
California  personal income tax ("California  municipal  securities").  The fund
also may purchase  participation  interests in California municipal  securities.
Participation interests are pro rata interests in securities held by others.

      Under normal market  conditions,  the fund intends to invest in California
municipal securities that pay AMT exempt interest,  but may invest without limit
in  securities  that pay  interest  that is subject  to the AMT if, in  Mitchell
Hutchins' judgment, market conditions warrant.

      As a single state money  market fund,  the fund may invest more than 5% of
its total assets in the securities of a single issuer with respect to 25% of its
total  assets.  The fund may  invest  up to 10% of its net  assets  in  illiquid
securities.  The  fund may  purchase  securities  on a  when-issued  or  delayed
delivery  basis.  The  fund  may  lend its  portfolio  securities  to  qualified
broker-dealers  or  institutional  investors  in an  amount up to 33 1/3% of its
total  assets.  The fund may borrow  from banks or  through  reverse  repurchase
agreements for temporary purposes, but not in excess of 10% of its total assets.
The costs  associated with borrowing may reduce the fund's net income.  The fund
may invest in the securities of other investment companies.

NEW JERSEY MUNICIPAL MONEY FUND

      New Jersey Municipal Money Fund's investment objective is the maximization
of current income exempt from federal income tax and New Jersey  personal income
tax for residents of the State of New Jersey,  consistent with the  preservation
of capital and the maintenance of liquidity.  Except for temporary purposes, the
fund invests at least 65% of its total  assets,  and seeks to invest 100% of its
net assets,  in  municipal  securities  issued by the State of New  Jersey,  its
municipalities  and  public  authorities  and  other  issuers  if the  municipal
securities  pay interest  that is exempt from federal  income tax as well as New
Jersey personal income tax ("New Jersey  municipal  securities").  The fund also
may  purchase  participation  interests  in  New  Jersey  municipal  securities.
Participation  interests are pro rata  interests in  securities  held by others.
Under normal  market  conditions,  the fund will not invest more than 25% of its
total  assets  in  participation  interests  or other  securities  issued  by or
purchased from banks or other financial institutions.


                                       3

      The fund  may  invest  without  limit in New  Jersey  securities  that pay
interest that is subject to the AMT.

      As a single state money  market fund,  the fund may invest more than 5% of
its total assets in the securities of a single issuer with respect to 25% of its
total  assets.  The fund may  invest  up to 10% of its net  assets  in  illiquid
securities.  The  fund may  purchase  securities  on a  when-issued  or  delayed

agreements for temporary  purposes,  but not in excess of 15% of its net assets.
The costs  associated with borrowing may reduce the fund's net income.  The fund

NEW YORK MUNICIPAL MONEY FUND

      New York Municipal Money Fund's investment objective is to provide maximum
current  income  exempt from federal  income tax and New York State and New York
City  personal  income taxes  consistent  with  liquidity  and  conservation  of
capital.  Except for temporary purposes, the fund invests at least 80% and seeks
to invest 100% of its net assets in municipal  securities issued by the State of
New York, its  municipalities  and public  authorities  and other issuers if the
municipal securities pay interest that is exempt from federal income tax as well
as New York State and New York City personal  income taxes ("New York  municipal
securities").  The fund also may  purchase  participation  interests in New York
municipal  securities.   Participation  interests  are  pro  rata  interests  in
securities held by others.

      Under  normal  market  conditions,  the fund intends to invest in New York
municipal securities that pay AMT exempt interest,  but may invest without limit
in  securities  that pay  interest  that is subject  to the AMT if, in  Mitchell
Hutchins' judgment, market conditions warrant.

      As a single state money  market fund,  the fund may invest more than 5% of
its total assets in the securities of a single issuer with respect to 25% of its
total  assets.  The fund may  invest  up to 10% of its net  assets  in  illiquid
securities.  The  fund may  purchase  securities  on a  when-issued  or  delayed
delivery  basis.  The  fund  may  lend its  portfolio  securities  to  qualified
broker-dealers  or  institutional  investors  in an  amount up to 33 1/3% of its
total  assets.  The fund may borrow  from banks or  through  reverse  repurchase
agreements for temporary purposes, but not in excess of 10% of its total assets.
The costs  associated with borrowing may reduce the fund's net income.  The fund
may invest in the securities of other investment companies.

              THE FUNDS' INVESTMENTS, RELATED RISKS AND LIMITATIONS

      The following  supplements the information contained in the Prospectus and
above concerning each fund's investments,  related risks and limitations. Except
as otherwise  indicated in the Prospectus or SAI, no fund has established policy
limitations  on its ability to use the  investments  or techniques  discussed in
these documents. New forms of money market instruments continue to be developed.
The funds may invest in these  instruments to the extent  consistent  with their
investment objectives.

      YIELDS  AND  CREDIT  RATINGS  OF  MONEY  MARKET  INSTRUMENTS;  FIRST  TIER
SECURITIES.  The  yields  on the money  market  instruments  in which  each fund
invests (such as U.S. government securities,  commercial paper, bank obligations
and  municipal  securities)  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 assigned by
nationally  recognized  statistical  rating  organizations  ("rating  agencies")
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 a fund,  an issue may cease to be rated or
its rating may be reduced.  If a security in a fund's  portfolio  ceases to be a
First Tier  Security  or Mitchell  Hutchins  becomes  aware that a security  has
received a rating below the second highest rating by any rating agency, Mitchell
Hutchins and, in certain cases, a fund's board,  will consider  whether the fund
should  continue to hold the  obligation.  First Tier  Securities  include  U.S.


                                       4
<PAGE>


government  securities and securities of other registered  investment  companies
that are money market funds. Other First Tier Securities are either (1) rated in
the highest  short-term  rating  category by at least two rating  agencies,  (2)
rated in the highest  short-term  rating  category by a single  rating agency if
only that rating  agency has assigned the  obligation a short-term  rating,  (3)
issued by an issuer that has received such a short-term rating with respect to a
security that is comparable in priority and security, (4) subject to a guarantee
rated in the highest  short-term  rating  category or issued by a guarantor that
has received the highest  short-term  rating for a comparable debt obligation or
(5) unrated,  but determined by Mitchell Hutchins to be of comparable quality. A
First Tier  Security  rated in the  highest  short-term  category at the time of
purchase that  subsequently  receives a rating below the highest rating category
from a  different  rating  agency may  continue  to be  considered  a First Tier
Security.

      Opinions  relating to the  validity  of  municipal  securities  and to the
exemption of interest  thereon from federal income tax and (when available) from
the federal  alternative minimum tax, California personal income tax, New Jersey
personal  income tax and New York State and New York City personal  income taxes
are rendered by bond counsel to the respective  issuing  authorities at the time
of issuance.  Neither  Mitchell  Hutchins nor a fund will review the proceedings
relating  to the  issuance  of  municipal  securities  or the  basis  for  these
opinions.  An issuer's obligations under its municipal securities are subject to
the  bankruptcy,  insolvency and other laws affecting the rights and remedies of
creditors  (such as the federal  bankruptcy  laws) and federal,  state and local
laws that may be enacted that adversely affect the tax-exempt status of interest
on the  municipal  securities  held by a fund or the  exempt-interest  dividends
received by a fund's  shareholders,  extend the time for payment of principal or
interest,  or  both,  or  impose  other  constraints  upon  enforcement  of such
obligations.  There is also the  possibility  that, as a result of litigation or
other conditions,  the power or ability of issuers to meet their obligations for
the payment of principal of and interest on their  municipal  securities  may be
materially and adversely affected.

      U.S. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES include direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury
(such as Treasury bills, notes or bonds) and obligations issued or guaranteed as
to principal and interest  (but not as to market value) by the U.S.  government,
its agencies or its  instrumentalities.  These U.S.  government  securities  may
include  mortgage-backed  securities issued or guaranteed by government agencies
or  government-sponsored  enterprises.  Other U.S. government  securities may be
backed  by the full  faith  and  credit  of the  U.S.  government  or  supported
primarily or solely by the creditworthiness of the government-related issuer or,
in the case of mortgage-backed securities, by pools of assets.

      Money  Market  Portfolio  and U.S.  Government  Portfolio  may  invest  in
separately  traded  principal and interest  components  of securities  issued or
guaranteed  by the U.S.  Treasury,  which  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.

      COMMERCIAL PAPER AND OTHER SHORT-TERM OBLIGATIONS.  Money Market Portfolio
may purchase commercial paper, which includes  short-term  obligations issued by
corporations,  partnerships,  trusts or other  entities  to  finance  short-term
credit needs.  The fund also may purchase  other types of  non-convertible  debt
obligations  subject  to  maturity  constraints  imposed by the  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission  ("SEC").  Descriptions  of  certain  types  of  short-term
obligations are provided below.

      ASSET-BACKED  SECURITIES.  The funds may  invest  in  securities  that are
comprised  of  financial  assets that have been  securitized  through the use of
trusts or special  purpose  corporations  or other  entities.  For taxable money
market funds, these assets may include motor vehicle and other installment sales
contracts,  home  equity  loans,  leases of various  types of real and  personal
property and receivables from revolving credit (credit card) agreements or other
types of financial assets.  Certain municipal  securities are also structured as
asset-backed securities. Payments or distributions of principal and interest may
be guaranteed  up to a certain  amount and for a certain time period by a letter
of  credit  or  pool  insurance   policy  issued  by  a  financial   institution
unaffiliated with the issuer, or other credit  enhancements may be present.  See
"The Funds'  Investments,  Related Risks and Limitations -- Credit and Liquidity
Enhancements."

      VARIABLE AND FLOATING RATE SECURITIES AND DEMAND INSTRUMENTS. Money Market
Portfolio and U.S. Government  Portfolio 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.
In addition,  Money Market  Portfolio  may purchase  variable and floating  rate


                                       5
<PAGE>

securities of other issuers,  and the municipal  money market funds may purchase
variable and floating rate  securities of municipal  issuers,  including  tender
option bonds. The yields on these securities are adjusted in relation to changes
in specific  rates,  such as the prime rate,  and different  securities may have
different  adjustment rates. Certain of these obligations carry a demand feature
that gives a fund the right to tender  them back to a specified  party,  usually
the issuer or a remarketing  agent,  prior to maturity.  A fund's investments in
variable and floating rate securities must comply with conditions established by
the SEC under which they may be  considered to have  remaining  maturities of 13
months or less. The funds will purchase variable and floating rate securities of
non-U.S.  government  issuers  that have  remaining  maturities  of more than 13
months only if the securities are subject to a demand feature exercisable within
13 months or less. See "The Funds' Investments, Related Risks and Limitations --
Credit and Liquidity Enhancements."

      Generally,  a fund may exercise  demand  features (1) upon a default under
the  terms  of  the  underlying  security,  (2) to  maintain  its  portfolio  in
accordance  with its  investment  objective and policies or applicable  legal or
regulatory requirements or (3) as needed to provide liquidity to a fund in order
to  meet  redemption  requests.  The  ability  of  a  bank  or  other  financial
institution to fulfill its  obligations  under a letter of credit,  guarantee or
other liquidity arrangement might be affected by possible financial difficulties
of its  borrowers,  adverse  interest  rate or economic  conditions,  regulatory
limitations  or other  factors.  The interest  rate on floating rate or variable
rate  securities  ordinarily is readjusted on the basis of the prime rate of the
bank that  originated the financing or some other index or published  rate, such
as the 90-day U.S.  Treasury bill rate, or is otherwise  reset to reflect market
rates of interest.  Generally,  these interest rate adjustments cause the market
value of floating rate and variable rate  securities to fluctuate  less than the
market value of fixed rate securities.

      VARIABLE AMOUNT MASTER DEMAND NOTES.  Money Market Portfolio may invest in
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 fund and an issuer.  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 (subject to any applicable  advance notice provisions) and may or may not
be rated.

      INVESTING IN FOREIGN SECURITIES.  Money Market Portfolio's  investments in
U.S. dollar denominated securities of foreign issuers may involve risks that are
different  from  investments  in U.S.  issuers.  These risks may include  future
unfavorable  political and economic  developments,  possible  withholding taxes,
seizure of foreign deposits,  currency controls,  interest  limitations or other
governmental restrictions that might affect the payment of principal or interest
on the fund's  investments.  Additionally,  there may be less publicly available
information  about foreign  issuers  because they may not be subject to the same
regulatory requirements as domestic issuers.

      CREDIT AND LIQUIDITY  ENHANCEMENTS.  A fund may invest in securities  that
have  credit  or  liquidity   enhancements   or  may  purchase  these  types  of
enhancements in the secondary  market.  Such  enhancements  may be structured as
demand features that permit the fund to sell the instrument at designated  times
and prices. These credit and liquidity  enhancements may be backed by letters of
credit or other  instruments  provided by banks or other financial  institutions
whose credit standing  affects the credit quality of the underlying  obligation.
Changes in the credit quality of these financial institutions could cause losses
to a fund and affect its share price. The credit and liquidity  enhancements may
have  conditions  that  limit  the  ability  of a fund to use them when the fund
wishes to do so.

      ILLIQUID SECURITIES.  The term "illiquid securities" means securities that
cannot be disposed of within  seven days in the  ordinary  course of business at
approximately the amount at which a fund has valued the securities and includes,
among  other  things,  repurchase  agreements  maturing in more than seven days,
restricted securities and municipal lease obligations (including certificates of
participation)  other than those  Mitchell  Hutchins has  determined  are liquid
pursuant to guidelines  established by each fund's board. A fund may not be able
to readily liquidate its investments in illiquid securities and may have to sell
other  investments if necessary to raise cash to meet its obligations.  The lack
of a liquid secondary market for illiquid  securities may make it more difficult
for a fund to assign a value to those  securities  for  purposes  of valuing its
portfolio and calculating its net asset value.

      Restricted securities are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended  ("Securities Act"), and may be sold only in privately  negotiated or
other  exempted  transactions  or  after  a  registration  statement  under  the
Securities Act has become effective.  Where registration is required, a fund may
be obligated to pay all or part of the registration  expenses and a considerable
period may elapse  between the time of the  decision to sell and the time a fund
may be permitted to sell a security under an effective  registration  statement.


                                       6
<PAGE>


If, during such a period,  adverse  market  conditions  were to develop,  a fund
might obtain a less favorable price than prevailed when it decided to sell.

      Not all restricted  securities are illiquid.  A large institutional market
has developed for many U.S. and foreign securities that are not registered under
the  Securities  Act.  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.

      Institutional  markets for restricted  securities also have developed as a
result of Rule 144A under the Securities Act, which  establishes a "safe harbor"
from the registration  requirements of the Securities Act for resales of certain
securities to qualified  institutional  buyers.  Such markets include  automated
systems for the trading,  clearance and settlement of unregistered securities of
domestic  and  foreign  issuers,  such as the  PORTAL  System  sponsored  by the
National  Association  of Securities  Dealers,  Inc. An  insufficient  number of
qualified  institutional  buyers  interested  in purchasing  Rule  144A-eligible
restricted  securities  held by a fund,  however,  could  affect  adversely  the
marketability  of such  portfolio  securities,  and the fund  might be unable to
dispose of them promptly or at favorable prices.

      Each board 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,  which may include (1) the frequency of trades for the security,  (2)
the number of dealers that make quotes, or are expected to make quotes,  for the
security,  (3) the nature of the security and how trading is effected (E.G., the
time needed to sell the  security,  how bids are  solicited and the mechanics of
transfer)  and (4)  the  existence  of  demand  features  or  similar  liquidity
enhancements.  Mitchell Hutchins monitors the liquidity of restricted securities
in each fund's  portfolio  and reports  periodically  on such  decisions  to the
applicable board.

      In  making   determinations   as  to  the  liquidity  of  municipal  lease
obligations,  Mitchell Hutchins will distinguish  between direct  investments in
municipal  lease  obligations  (or  participations  therein) and  investments in
securities that may be supported by municipal lease  obligations or certificates
of  participation  therein.   Since  these  municipal  lease   obligation-backed
securities are based on a  well-established  means of  securitization,  Mitchell
Hutchins does not believe that  investing in such  securities  presents the same
liquidity issues as direct investments in municipal lease obligations.

      Mitchell  Hutchins also monitors each fund's overall  holdings of illiquid
securities. If a fund's holdings of illiquid securities exceed its limitation on
investments in illiquid securities for any reason (such as a particular security
becoming illiquid,  changes in the relative market values of liquid and illiquid
portfolio  securities  or  shareholder  redemptions),   Mitchell  Hutchins  will
consider  what  action  would  be in  the  best  interests  of a  fund  and  its
shareholders.  Such action may include  engaging  in an orderly  disposition  of
securities to reduce the fund's holdings of illiquid securities. However, a fund
is not required to dispose of illiquid securities under these circumstances.

      REPURCHASE   AGREEMENTS.   Money  Market  Portfolio  and  U.S.  Government
Portfolio each 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. Each municipal
money  market fund may enter into  repurchase  agreements  with  respect to U.S.
government  securities,  commercial  paper,  bank  certificates  of deposit  and
bankers'  acceptances.  Repurchase  agreements are  transactions in which a fund
purchases  securities or other  obligations from a bank or securities dealer (or
its affiliate) and simultaneously  commits to resell them to the counterparty at
an  agreed-upon  date or upon demand and at a price  reflecting a market rate of
interest unrelated to the coupon rate or maturity of the purchased  obligations.
Securities  or other  obligations  subject  to  repurchase  agreements  may have
maturities in excess of 13 months.  A fund  maintains  custody of the underlying
obligations prior to their  repurchase,  either through its regular custodian or
through a special "tri-party" custodian or sub-custodian that maintains separate
accounts for both the fund and its  counterparty.  Thus,  the  obligation of the
counterparty  to pay the  repurchase  price on the date agreed to or upon demand
is, in effect, secured by such obligations.


                                       7
<PAGE>


      Repurchase  agreements  carry  certain  risks not  associated  with direct
investments in securities,  including a possible  decline in the market value of
the  underlying  obligations.  If their value  becomes less than the  repurchase
price,  plus any agreed-upon  additional  amount,  the counterparty 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  obligations and
the price that was paid by a fund upon  acquisition  is accrued as interest  and
included  in  its  net  investment  income.   Repurchase   agreements  involving
obligations other than U.S. government  securities (such as commercial paper and
corporate bonds) may be subject to special risks and may not have the benefit of
certain protections in the event of the counterparty's insolvency. If the seller
or guarantor  becomes  insolvent,  a fund may suffer delays,  costs and possible
losses in connection  with the  disposition of collateral.  Each fund intends to
enter  into  repurchase  agreements  only in  transactions  with  counterparties
believed by Mitchell Hutchins to present minimum credit risks.

      REVERSE REPURCHASE  AGREEMENTS.  Reverse repurchase agreements involve the
sale of securities  held by a fund subject to its  agreement to  repurchase  the
securities  at an  agreed-upon  date or upon demand and at a price  reflecting a
market rate of interest.  Reverse repurchase  agreements are subject to a fund's
limitation on  borrowings  and may be entered into only with banks or securities
dealers  or  their  affiliates.   While  a  reverse   repurchase   agreement  is
outstanding,  a fund will maintain,  in a segregated account with its custodian,
cash or liquid  securities,  marked to market daily, in an amount at least equal
to its  obligations  under the  reverse  repurchase  agreement.  See "The Funds'
Investments, Related Risks and Limitations -- Segregated Accounts."

      Reverse  repurchase  agreements  involve  the risk  that the  buyer of the
securities sold by a fund might be unable to deliver them when the fund seeks to
repurchase.  If the buyer of  securities  under a reverse  repurchase  agreement
files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent,  the buyer or trustee or receiver may
receive an extension of time to determine whether to enforce a fund's obligation
to repurchase  the  securities,  and a fund's use of the proceeds of the reverse
repurchase agreement may effectively be restricted pending such decision.

      WHEN-ISSUED  AND  DELAYED  DELIVERY  SECURITIES.  Each  fund may  purchase
securities  on a  "when-issued"  basis or may  purchase or sell  securities  for
delayed  delivery,  I.E.,  for issuance or delivery to or by the fund later than
the normal  settlement  date at a stated price and yield. A fund generally would
not pay for such  securities  or start  earning  interest on them until they are
received.  However,  when a fund  undertakes a when-issued  or delayed  delivery
obligation,  it immediately assumes the risks of ownership,  including the risks
of price fluctuation. Failure of the issuer to deliver a security purchased by a
fund on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis may result in a fund's incurring
a loss or missing an opportunity to make an alternative investment.

      A  security  purchased  on a  when-issued  or  delayed  delivery  basis is
recorded as an asset on the commitment  date and is subject to changes in market
value,  generally  based upon  changes  in the level of  interest  rates.  Thus,
fluctuation  in the value of the security from the time of the  commitment  date
will affect a fund's net asset value. When a fund commits to purchase securities
on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis, its custodian  segregates  assets to
cover the amount of the commitment.  See "The Funds' Investments,  Related Risks
and  Limitations  --  Segregated  Accounts."  A fund's  when-issued  and delayed
delivery  purchase  commitments  could cause its net asset value per share to be
more  volatile.  Each fund may sell the right to acquire the  security  prior to
delivery if Mitchell  Hutchins deems it  advantageous to do so, which may result
in a gain or loss to the fund.  Each  municipal  money  market fund expects that
commitments to purchase when-issued or delayed delivery securities normally will
not  exceed 25% of its assets  (20% in the case of New  Jersey  Municipal  Money
Fund).

      INVESTMENTS  IN  OTHER  INVESTMENT  COMPANIES.  Each  fund may  invest  in
securities  of other  money  market  funds,  subject  to  limitations  under the
Investment Company Act. Among other things, these limitations currently restrict
a fund's aggregate investments in other investment companies to no more than 10%
of its total assets. A fund's investments in certain private investment vehicles
are not subject to this restriction.  The shares of other money market funds are
subject to the management  fees and other  expenses of those funds.  At the same
time, a fund would  continue to pay its own  management  fees and expenses  with
respect to all its  investments,  including  shares of other money market funds.
Each fund may invest in the securities of other money market funds when Mitchell
Hutchins  believes  that (1) the  amounts  to be  invested  are too small or are
available too late in the day to be  effectively  invested in other money market
instruments,  (2) shares of other money market funds  otherwise  would provide a
better return than direct  investment in other money market  instruments  or (3)
such investments would enhance the fund's liquidity.

      LENDING  OF  PORTFOLIO  SECURITIES.  Each fund is  authorized  to lend its
portfolio securities to broker-dealers or institutional  investors that Mitchell
Hutchins deems qualified.  Lending  securities enables a fund to earn additional
income, but could result in a loss or delay in recovering these securities.  The
borrower of a fund's portfolio  securities must maintain  acceptable  collateral
with the fund's  custodian in an amount,  marked to market daily, 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.  Each fund may reinvest any cash  collateral in money market
investments or other short-term liquid  investments,  including other investment
companies.  A fund also may  reinvest  cash  collateral  in  private  investment
vehicles  similar to money  market  funds,  including  one  managed 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.  Each fund will
retain  authority to terminate  any of its loans at any time.  Each fund may pay
reasonable  fees in  connection  with a loan and may pay the borrower or placing
broker a negotiated  portion of the interest earned on the  reinvestment of cash
held as collateral.  Each fund will receive amounts  equivalent to any interest,
dividends or other distributions on the securities loaned. Each fund will regain
record ownership of loaned  securities to exercise  beneficial  rights,  such as
voting and subscription  rights,  when regaining such rights is considered to be
in a fund's interest.

      Pursuant to  procedures  adopted by the board of each fund  governing  the
fund's  securities  lending  program,  PaineWebber has been retained to serve as
lending  agent for the fund.  The  board of each  fund also has  authorized  the
payment of fees  (including  fees  calculated  as a percentage  of invested cash
collateral) to PaineWebber for these services.  The board  periodically  reviews
all  portfolio  securities  loan  transactions  for which  PaineWebber  acted as
lending  agent.  PaineWebber  also has been  approved  as a borrower  under each
fund's securities lending program.

      SEGREGATED  ACCOUNTS.  When a fund enters into certain  transactions  that
involve  obligations  to make future  payments to third  parties,  including the
purchase of  securities on a when-issued  or delayed  delivery  basis or reverse
repurchase  agreements,  it  will  maintain  with  an  approved  custodian  in a
segregated  account cash or liquid  securities,  marked to market  daily,  in an
amount  at  least  equal  to  a  fund's  obligation  or  commitment  under  such
transactions.

CERTAIN POLICIES OF THE MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUNDS

      Tax-Free Fund, California Municipal Money Fund, New Jersey Municipal Money
Fund and New York Municipal  Money Fund may be referred to  collectively  as the
"municipal money market funds."

      NON-DIVERSIFIED  STATUS OF SINGLE  STATE  MUNICIPAL  MONEY  MARKET  FUNDS.
California  Municipal  Money Fund, New Jersey  Municipal Money Fund and New York
Municipal Money Fund are "non-diversified funds," as that term is defined in the
Investment  Company Act. In general,  a  non-diversified  fund is not subject to
certain limitations on its ability to invest more than 5% of its total assets in
securities of a single issuer with respect to 75% of its assets. Rule 2a-7 under
the Investment  Company Act,  however,  imposes more  stringent  diversification
requirements  on money market  funds.  For single state  municipal  money market
funds,  Rule 2a-7 generally  requires that the securities of a single issuer not
exceed 5% of the fund's total assets with respect to at least 75% of its assets.
Nonetheless,  a single  state  municipal  money  market  fund may be  subject to
greater  risk  than a money  market  fund  that is more  "diversified,"  because
changes  in the  financial  condition  of a  single  issuer  may  cause  greater
fluctuations  in its yield or on its  ability to  maintain a constant  net asset
value per share.

      TYPES OF MUNICIPAL SECURITIES. Each municipal money market fund may invest
in a variety of municipal securities, as described below:

      MUNICIPAL  BONDS.  Municipal bonds are debt obligations that are issued by
states,  municipalities,  public  authorities  or  other  issuers  and  that pay
interest  that is exempt  from  federal  income tax in the  opinion of  issuer's
counsel.  The two  principal  classifications  of  municipal  bonds are "general
obligation" and "revenue"  bonds.  General  obligation  bonds are secured by the
issuer's  pledge of its full faith,  credit and taxing  power for the payment of
principal and interest. Revenue bonds are payable only from the revenues derived
from a particular  facility or class of facilities  or, in some cases,  from the
proceeds of a special excise tax or other  specific  revenue source such as from
the user of the  facility  being  financed.  The  term  "municipal  bonds"  also
includes "moral obligation" issues, which are normally issued by special purpose
authorities.  In  the  case  of  such  issues,  an  express  or  implied  "moral
obligation" of a related  government  unit is pledged to the payment of the debt


                                       9
<PAGE>


service,  but is usually  subject  to annual  budget  appropriations.  Custodial
receipts that  represent an ownership  interest in one or more  municipal  bonds
also are considered to be municipal bonds.  Various types of municipal bonds are
described in the following sections.

      MUNICIPAL  LEASE  OBLIGATIONS.  Municipal  bonds include  municipal  lease
obligations,  such as leases,  installment  purchase  contracts and  conditional
sales  contracts,  and certificates of  participation  therein.  Municipal lease
obligations  are  issued by state  and  local  governments  and  authorities  to
purchase land or various types of equipment or facilities  and may be subject to
annual budget appropriations.  The municipal money market funds generally invest
in municipal lease obligations through certificates of participation.

      Although municipal lease obligations do not constitute general obligations
of the municipality for which the municipality's  taxing power is pledged,  they
ordinarily are backed by the municipality's  covenant to budget for, appropriate
and make the  payments  due under the lease  obligation.  The leases  underlying
certain municipal lease  obligations,  however,  provide that lease payments are
subject  to  partial  or full  abatement  if,  because  of  material  damage  or
destruction of the leased property,  there is substantial  interference with the
lessee's use or occupancy of such property. This "abatement risk" may be reduced
by the existence of insurance  covering the leased property,  the maintenance by
the lessee of reserve  funds or the  provision  of credit  enhancements  such as
letters of credit.

      Certain municipal lease obligations  contain  "non-appropriation"  clauses
which  provide  that  the  municipality  has no  obligation  to  make  lease  or
installment  purchase  payments in future years unless money is appropriated for
such purpose on a yearly basis.  Some municipal  lease  obligations of this type
are insured as to timely payment of principal and interest, even in the event of
a failure by the  municipality to appropriate  sufficient funds to make payments
under  the  lease.  However,  in  the  case  of  an  uninsured  municipal  lease
obligation,  a municipal  money market fund's ability to recover under the lease
in the event of a  non-appropriation  or default  will be limited  solely to the
repossession  of leased property  without  recourse to the general credit of the
lessee,  and disposition of the property in the event of foreclosure might prove
difficult.

      INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT BONDS ("IDBS") AND PRIVATE ACTIVITY BONDS ("PABS").
IDBs and PABs are  issued  by or on  behalf of  public  authorities  to  finance
various  privately  operated  facilities,  such as airport or pollution  control
facilities.  These  obligations  are considered  municipal bonds if the interest
paid  thereon  is exempt  from  federal  income  tax in the  opinion of the bond
issuer's counsel. IDBs and PABs are in most cases revenue bonds and thus are not
payable from the unrestricted revenues of the issuer. The credit quality of IDBs
and PABs is usually  directly  related to the credit standing of the user of the
facilities  being  financed.  IDBs issued  after August 15, 1986  generally  are
considered  PABs,  and to the extent a fund  invests in such PABs,  shareholders
generally  will be  required  to  include  a  portion  of their  exempt-interest
dividends from that fund in calculating their liability for the AMT. See "Taxes"
below.  Each municipal  money market fund may invest more than 25% of its assets
in IDBs and PABs.

      PARTICIPATION   INTERESTS.   Participation   interests  are  interests  in
municipal   bonds,   including   IDBs,  PABs  and  floating  and  variable  rate
obligations,  that are owned by financial institutions.  These interests carry a
demand  feature  permitting  the  holder  to tender  them back to the  financial
institution,  which demand feature generally is backed by an irrevocable  letter
of credit or guarantee of the financial institution. The credit standing of such
financial institution affects the credit quality of the participation interests.

      A participation  interest gives a municipal money market fund an undivided
interest in a municipal bond owned by a financial institution.  The fund has the
right to sell the instruments  back to the financial  institution.  As discussed
above under "The Funds' Investments, Related Risks and Limitations -- Credit and
Liquidity  Enhancements,"  to the extent that payment of an obligation is backed
by a letter  of  credit,  guarantee  or  liquidity  support  arrangement  from a
financial   institution,   that   payment  may  be  subject  to  the   financial
institution's ability to satisfy that commitment. Mitchell Hutchins will monitor
the pricing,  quality and  liquidity of the  participation  interests  held by a
municipal money market fund, and the credit  standing of financial  institutions
issuing letters of credit or guarantees supporting those participation interests
on the basis of published financial information,  reports of rating services and
financial institution analytical services.


                                       10
<PAGE>


      PUT  BONDS.  A put bond is a  municipal  bond that  gives the  holder  the
unconditional  right to sell the bond back to the  issuer or a third  party at a
specified  price and exercise  date,  which is typically  well in advance of the
bond's  maturity  date. The obligation to purchase the bond on the exercise date
may be supported by a letter of credit or other credit support  arrangement from
a bank, insurance company or other financial institution, the credit standing of
which affects the credit quality of the obligation.

      If a municipal money market fund holds a bond subject to a "one time only"
put, the fund  ordinarily  will either sell the bond or put the bond,  depending
upon the more  favorable  price.  If a bond has a series of puts after the first
put, it will be held as long as, in the judgment of Mitchell Hutchins,  it is in
the fund's best  interest to do so. There is no  assurance  that the issuer of a
put bond acquired by a fund will be able to repurchase  the bond on the exercise
date,  if the fund  chooses  to  exercise  its right to put the bond back to the
issuer or to a third party.

      TENDER  OPTION  BONDS.   Tender  option  bonds  are  long-term   municipal
securities  sold by a bank or other  financial  institution  subject to a demand
feature  that  gives the  purchaser  the right to sell them to the bank or other
financial  institution  at par plus accrued  interest at  designated  times (the
"tender  option").  The  municipal  money  market funds may invest in bonds with
tender options that may be  exercisable  at intervals  ranging from daily to 397
days,  and the interest  rate on the bonds is typically  reset at the end of the
applicable interval in an attempt to cause the bonds to have a market value that
approximates  their par value, plus accrued interest.  The tender option may not
be exercisable in the event of a default on, or significant  downgrading of, the
underlying  municipal  securities,  and  may be  subject  to  other  conditions.
Therefore,  a fund's  ability to exercise the tender  option will be affected by
the credit standing of both the bank or other financial institution involved and
the issuer of the underlying securities.

      TAX-EXEMPT  COMMERCIAL  PAPER AND SHORT-TERM  MUNICIPAL  NOTES.  Municipal
bonds include tax-exempt  commercial paper and short-term  municipal notes, such
as tax anticipation notes, bond anticipation notes,  revenue  anticipation notes
and  other  forms  of  short-term  securities.  Such  notes  are  issued  with a
short-term maturity in anticipation of the receipt of tax funds, the proceeds of
bond placements and other revenues.

      MORTGAGE SUBSIDY BONDS. The municipal money market funds also may purchase
mortgage subsidy bonds with a remaining maturity of less than 13 months that are
issued to  subsidize  mortgages on single  family  homes and "moral  obligation"
bonds with a remaining  maturity of less than 13 months that are normally issued
by special  purpose  public  authorities.  In some cases the  repayment of these
bonds depends upon annual legislative  appropriations;  in other cases repayment
is a legal  obligation  of the  issuer,  and if the issuer is unable to meet its
obligations,  repayment becomes a moral commitment of a related  government unit
(subject, however, to such appropriations).

      STAND-BY  COMMITMENTS.  A municipal money market fund may acquire stand-by
commitments under unusual market conditions to facilitate  portfolio  liquidity.
Pursuant to a stand-by  commitment,  a municipal  bond dealer agrees to purchase
the securities  that are the subject of the commitment at an amount equal to (1)
the acquisition cost (excluding any accrued interest paid on acquisition),  less
any  amortized  market  premium  and plus any accrued  market or original  issue
discount,  plus  (2) all  interest  accrued  on the  securities  since  the last
interest  payment date or the date the securities were  purchased,  whichever is
later.

      A  municipal  money fund will enter into  stand-by  commitments  only with
those banks or other dealers that, in the opinion of Mitchell Hutchins,  present
minimal  credit risk. A fund's right to exercise  stand-by  commitments  will be
unconditional and unqualified.  Stand-by commitments will not be transferable by
a fund,  although it may sell the underlying  securities to a third party at any
time. A fund may pay for stand-by  commitments  either  separately in cash or by
paying a higher price for the  securities  that are  acquired  subject to such a
commitment (thus reducing the yield to maturity otherwise available for the same
securities). The acquisition of a stand-by commitment will not ordinarily affect
the  valuation  or maturity of the  underlying  municipal  securities.  Stand-by
commitments  acquired by a fund will be valued at zero in determining  net asset
value. Whether a fund pays directly or indirectly for a stand-by commitment, its
cost will be treated as unrealized  depreciation  and will be amortized over the
period the fund holds the commitment.

      TEMPORARY AND DEFENSIVE INVESTMENTS.  When Mitchell Hutchins believes that
there is an insufficient  supply of the type of municipal  securities in which a
municipal  money market fund primarily  invests,  or during other unusual market


                                       11
<PAGE>


conditions,  that fund may  temporarily  invest  all or any  portion  of its net
assets in other  types of  municipal  securities.  In  addition,  when  Mitchell
Hutchins believes that there is an insufficient  supply of any type of municipal
securities  or that  other  circumstances  warrant  a  defensive  posture,  each
municipal  money  market fund may hold cash and may invest all or any portion of
its net  assets  in  taxable  money  market  instruments,  including  repurchase
agreements.  To the extent a municipal  money market fund holds cash,  such cash
would not earn income and would reduce the fund's yield.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS RELATING TO CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL SECURITIES

      The  following  information  provides  only a brief summary of the complex
factors  affecting  the financial  situation in California  (the "State") and is
derived from sources that are  generally  available to investors and is believed
to be accurate.  It is based in part on information  obtained from various State
and local agencies in California.  It should be noted that the  creditworthiness
of  obligations  issued by local  California  issuers  may be  unrelated  to the
creditworthiness of obligations issued by the State of California,  and there is
no  obligation  on the part of the  State to make  payment  on local  government
obligations in the event of default or financial difficulty.

GENERAL

      During the early  1990's,  California  experienced  significant  financial
difficulties,  which reduced its credit standing,  but the State's finances have
improved  significantly  since 1994,  with  ratings  increases  since 1996.  The
ratings of certain  related debt of other  issuers for which  California  has an
outstanding lease purchase,  guarantee or other contractual  obligation (such as
for state-insured  hospital bonds) are generally linked directly to California's
rating.  Should the financial  condition of California  deteriorate  again,  its
credit ratings could be reduced,  and the market value and  marketability of all
outstanding  notes and bonds issued by  California,  its public  authorities  or
local governments could be adversely affected.

ECONOMIC FACTORS

      California's  economy  is the  largest  among the 50 states and one of the
largest in the world. The State's population of over 34 million represents about
12-1/2% of the total United States population and grew by 26% in the 1980s, more
than double the national rate. Population growth slowed to less than 1% annually
in 1994 and 1995, but rose to almost 2% in the final years of the 1990's. During
the early  1990's,  net  population  growth  in the State was due to births  and
foreign immigration, but in recent years, in-migration from the other states has
increased and once more represents net positive growth.

      Total personal  income in the State, at an estimated $964 billion in 1999,
accounts for almost 13% of all personal income in the nation.  Total  employment
is over  15  million,  the  majority  of  which  is in the  service,  trade  and
manufacturing sectors.

      From mid-1990 to late 1993,  the State suffered a recession with the worst
economic,   fiscal  and  budget   conditions  since  the  1930s.   Construction,
manufacturing (especially aerospace), and financial services, among others, were
all severely  affected,  particularly in Southern  California.  Recovery did not
begin in  California  until 1994,  later than the rest of the nation,  but since
that time California's  economy has outpaced the national average. By the end of
1999,  unemployment  in the  State  was at its  lowest  level in three  decades.
Economic  indicators  show a steady and strong  recovery  underway in California
since  the  start of 1994  particularly  in high  technology  manufacturing  and
services,  including  computer  software,  electronic  manufacturing  and motion
picture/television  production,  and other services,  entertainment and tourism,
and  both  residential  and  commercial  construction.   International  economic
problems  starting in 1997 had some moderating  impact on California's  economy,
but  negative  impacts,  such as a sharp  drop in exports to Asia which hurt the
manufacturing  and  agricultural  sectors,  were offset by increased  exports to
Latin American and other nations,  and a greater strength in services,  computer
software and  construction.  With economic  conditions  in many Asian  countries
recovering in 1999, that year had the strongest economic growth in the State for
the entire decade.  Current  forecasts  predict  continued  strong growth of the
State's  economy in 2000, with slower growth  predicted in 2001 and beyond.  Any
delay or reversal of the recovery may create new shortfalls in State revenues.

CONSTITUTIONAL LIMITATIONS ON TAXES, OTHER CHARGES AND APPROPRIATIONS

      LIMITATION ON PROPERTY TAXES. Certain California Municipal Obligations may
be  obligations  of  issuers  which  rely  in  whole  or in  part,  directly  or
indirectly,  on AD valorem  property  taxes as a source of  revenue.  The taxing
powers of  California  local  governments  and  districts are limited by Article
XIIIA of the California Constitution, enacted by the voters in 1978 and commonly
known as  "Proposition  13."  Briefly,  Article  XIIIA limits to 1% of full cash
value of the rate of AD VALOREM  property  taxes on real  property and generally
restricts  the  reassessment  of  property  to 2% per  year,  except  under  new
construction or change of ownership (subject to a number of exemptions).  Taxing
entities  may,  however,  raise AD VALOREM  taxes above the 1% limit to pay debt
service on voter-approved bonded indebtedness.

      Under Article XIIIA,  the basic 1% AD VALOREM tax levy is applied  against
the assessed value of property as of the owner's date of  acquisition  (or as of
March 1, 1975, if acquired earlier), subject to certain adjustments. This system
has resulted in widely varying amounts of tax on similarly situated  properties.
Several lawsuits have been filed  challenging the  acquisition-based  assessment
system of Proposition 13, but it was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1992.

      Article XIIIA prohibits local governments from raising revenues through AD
VALOREM taxes above the 1% limit;  it also requires  voters of any  governmental
unit to give  two-thirds  approval to levy any "special  tax." Court  decisions,
however,  allowed a non-voter  approved  levy of "general  taxes" which were not
dedicated to a specific use.

      LIMITATIONS  ON OTHER TAXES,  FEES AND CHARGES.  On November 5, 1996,  the
voters of the State approved Proposition 218, called the "Right to Vote on Taxes
Act." Proposition 218 added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the State  Constitution,
which contain a number of provisions  affecting the ability of local agencies to
levy and collect both existing and future taxes, assessments, fees and charges.

      Article XIIIC requires that all new or increased  local taxes be submitted
to the electorate before they become effective.  Taxes for general  governmental
purposes  require a  majority  vote and taxes for  specific  purposes  require a
two-thirds vote. Further, any general purpose tax which was imposed, extended or
increased  without voter  approval after December 31, 1994 must be approved by a
majority vote within two years.

      Article XIIID  contains  several new  provisions  making it generally more
difficult for local  agencies to levy and maintain  "assessments"  for municipal
services  and  programs.  Article  XIIID also  contains  several new  provisions
affecting  "fees" and  "charges",  defined for purposes of Article XIIID to mean
"any levy other than an AD VALOREM tax, a special tax, or an assessment, imposed
by a  [local  government]  upon a  parcel  or upon a person  as an  incident  of
property  ownership,  including  a user fee or  charge  for a  property  related
service." All new and existing property related fees and charges must conform to
requirements  prohibiting,  among other things,  fees and charges which generate
revenues exceeding the funds required to provide the property related service or
are used for  unrelated  purposes.  There are new  notice,  hearing  and protest
procedures  for levying or increasing  property  related fees and charges,  and,
except for fees or charges for sewer,  water and refuse collection  services (or
fees for electrical and gas service, which are not treated as "property related"
for purposes of Article XIIID), no property related fee or charge may be imposed
or increased without majority approval by the property owners subject to the fee
or charge or, at the option of the local agency,  two-thirds  voter  approval by
the electorate residing in the affected area.

      In addition to the  provisions  described  above,  Article  XIIIC  removes
limitations on the initiative power in matters of local taxes, assessments, fees
and charges.  Consequently,  local voters could, by future  initiative,  repeal,
reduce  or  prohibit  the  future  imposition  or  increase  of any  local  tax,
assessment,  fee or charge. It is unclear how this right of local initiative may
be used in  cases  where  taxes or  charges  have  been or will be  specifically
pledged to secure debt issues.

      The  interpretation  and application of Proposition 218 will ultimately be
determined  by the courts  with  respect to a number of  matters,  and it is not
possible  at  this  time  to  predict  with   certainly   the  outcome  of  such
determinations.  Proposition  218 is generally  viewed as restricting the fiscal
flexibility  of  local  governments,  and  for  this  reason,  some  ratings  of
California cities and counties have been, and others may be, reduced.


                                       13

      APPROPRIATIONS  LIMITS. The State and its local governments are subject to
an annual  "appropriations  limit"  imposed by Article  XIIIB of the  California
Constitution,  enacted  by the  voters  in 1979  and  significantly  amended  by
Propositions 98 and 111 in 1988 and 1990, respectively.  Article XIIIB prohibits
the State or any covered local government from spending  "appropriations subject
to limitation" in excess of the  appropriations  limit imposed.  "Appropriations
subject to limitation"  are  authorizations  to spend "proceeds of taxes," which
consist of tax  revenues  and  certain  other  funds,  including  proceeds  from
regulatory  licenses,  user  charges  or other  fees,  to the  extent  that such
proceeds  exceed the cost of providing the product or service,  but "proceeds of
taxes" exclude most State subventions to local governments.  No limit is imposed
on appropriations of funds which are not "proceeds of taxes," such as reasonable
user charges or fees, and certain other non-tax funds, including bond proceeds.

      Among the  expenditures  not included in the Article XIIIB  appropriations
limit  are (1) the debt  service  cost of bonds  issued or  authorized  prior to
January 1, 1979, or subsequently  authorized by the voters,  (2)  appropriations
arising from certain  emergencies  declared by the Governor,  (3) appropriations
for  certain  capital  outlay  projects,  (4)  appropriations  by the  State  of
post-1989  increases  in  gasoline  taxes  and  vehicle  weight  fees,  and  (5)
appropriations made in certain cases of emergency.

      The  appropriations  limit for each year is  adjusted  annually to reflect
changes  in  cost  of  living  and  population,  and any  transfers  of  service
responsibilities  between government units. The definitions for such adjustments
were liberalized in 1990 to follow more closely growth in the State's economy.

      "Excess"  revenues are measured over a two year cycle.  Local  governments
must return any excess to  taxpayers by rate  reductions.  The State must refund
50% of any excess,  with the other 50% paid to schools and  community  colleges.
With more liberal annual adjustment  factors since 1988, and depressed  revenues
in the  early  1990's  because  of the  recession,  few  governments  have  been
operating near their spending  limits,  but this condition may change over time.
Local  governments  may by voter approval exceed their spending limits for up to
four years.  For the last ten years,  appropriations  subject to limitation have
been under the State's limit. However, because of extraordinary revenue receipts
in fiscal year 1999-2000, the State appropriations were estimated to be close to
the  limit.  The State  Department  of  Finance  estimates  the State will be $6
billion below its appropriation limit in fiscal year 2000-01.

      Because of the complex nature of Articles XIIIA, XIIIB, XIIIC and XIIID of
the California  Constitution,  the ambiguities and possible  inconsistencies  in
their terms,  and the  impossibility  of  predicting  future  appropriations  or
changes in  population  and cost of living,  and the  probability  of continuing
legal challenges,  it is not currently possible to determine fully the impact of
these  Articles on  California  municipal  obligations  or on the ability of the
State or local  governments  to pay debt  service on such  California  municipal
obligations.  It is not possible, at the present time, to predict the outcome of
any  pending   litigation  with  respect  to  the  ultimate  scope,   impact  or
constitutionality  of these  Articles  or the impact of any such  determinations
upon State  agencies  or local  governments,  or upon their  ability to pay debt
service on their obligations. Further initiatives or legislative changes in laws
or the California Constitution may also affect the ability of the State or local
issuers to repay their obligations.

OBLIGATIONS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

      Under the California  Constitution,  debt service on  outstanding  general
obligation  bonds is the second  charge to the General Fund after support of the
public school system and public institutions of higher education.  As of July 1,
2000, the State had outstanding approximately $21.3 billion of long-term general
obligation bonds, plus $500 million of general obligation commercial paper which
will be  refunded  by  long-term  bonds  in the  future,  and  $6.7  billion  of
lease-purchase  debt  supported by the State  General  Fund.  The State also had
about $17.3  billion of authorized  and unissued  long-term  general  obligation
bonds  and  lease-purchase  debt.  In FY  1999-2000,  debt  service  on  general
obligation bonds and lease purchase debt was approximately  3.7% of General Fund
revenues.

RECENT FINANCIAL RESULTS

      The  principal  sources of General  Fund  revenues in  1998-1999  were the
California personal income tax (53 percent of total revenues), the sales tax (32
percent),  bank and corporation taxes (10 percent), and the gross premium tax on


                                       14
<PAGE>


insurance (2 percent).  An estimated 20% of personal income tax receipts (10% of
total General Fund) is derived from capital gains  realizations and stock option
income.  While these  sources have been  extraordinarily  strong in the past few
years, they are particularly volatile; any sustained drop in stock market levels
could have a significant impact on these revenues.

      The  State  maintains  a  Special  Fund for  Economic  Uncertainties  (the
"SFEU"),  derived from General Fund revenues, as a reserve to meet cash needs of
the General Fund,  but which is required to be replenished as soon as sufficient
revenues are available. Year-end balances in the SFEU are included for financial
reporting purposes in the General Fund balance.

      Throughout  the  1980's,  State  spending  increased  rapidly as the State
population and economy also grew rapidly,  including increased spending for many
assistance programs to local governments,  which were constrained by Proposition
13 and other laws.  The largest  State  program is  assistance  to local  public
school  districts.  In 1988,  an initiative  (Proposition  98) was enacted which
(subject to suspension by a two-thirds vote of the Legislature and the Governor)
guarantees  local school  districts  and community  college  districts a minimum
share of State General Fund revenues (currently about 35 percent).

      RECENT  BUDGETS.  The State  suffered  a severe  economic  recession  from
1990-94 during which the State experienced  substantial  revenue  shortfalls and
accumulated a budget deficit of about $2.8 billion.  With the economic  recovery
which began in 1994, the State's  financial  condition  improved markedly in the
years from  fiscal  year  1995-96  onward,  with a  combination  of better  than
expected revenues,  slowdown in growth of social welfare programs, and continued
spending restraint based on the actions taken in earlier years.

      The economy grew strongly  during the second half of the 1990's,  and as a
result, the General Fund took in substantially greater tax revenues (around $2.2
billion in 1995-96,  $1.6  billion in  1996-97,  $2.1  billion in 1997-98,  $1.6
billion in 1998-99 and $8.2 billion in 1999-2000)  than were  initially  planned
when the budgets were enacted.  These  additional funds were largely directed to
school  spending as mandated by Proposition  98, and to make up shortfalls  from
reduced  federal  health and welfare aid in 1995-96 and 1996-97.  In 1998-99 and
1999-2000, significant new spending programs were also enacted, particularly for
education.  The accumulated  budget deficit from the recession years was finally
eliminated.  The Department of Finance estimates that the State's budget reserve
(the SFEU) totaled $7.2 billion at June 30, 2000.

      The  growth  in  General  Fund  revenues  since  the end of the  recession
resulted in  significant  increases in State funding for local school  districts
under Proposition 98. From the recession level of about $4,300 per pupil, annual
State  funding  has  increased  to  over  $6,700  per  pupil  in FY  2000-01.  A
significant amount of the new moneys have been directed to specific  educational
reforms,  including  reduction of class sizes in many grade levels. The improved
budget  condition also allowed annual  increases in support for higher education
in the State, permitting increased enrollment and reduction of student fees.

      Part of the 1997-98  Budget Act was  completion  of State  welfare  reform
legislation  to  implement  the new  federal  law passed in 1996.  The new State
program,  called  "CalWORKs,"  became effective  January 1, 1998, and emphasizes
programs to bring aid recipients into the workforce. As required by federal law,
new time  limits are placed on receipt  of welfare  aid.  Generally,  health and
welfare  costs have been  contained  even  during the recent  period of economic
recovery,  with the first real increases  (after  inflation) in welfare  support
levels occurring in 1999-2000 and additional increases in 2000-01.

      One of the most important elements of the 1998-99 Budget Act was agreement
on substantial tax cuts. The largest of these was a phased-in cut in the Vehicle
License  Fee (an annual tax on the value of cars  registered  in the State,  the
"VLF").  Starting on January 1, 1999,  the VLF was reduced by 25 percent,  which
was increased to a 35% reduction effective January 1, 2000. With substantial new
revenues in the last fiscal year, the Legislature increased the VLF cut to 67.5%
starting  January 1, 2001 (although the additional  reduction for calendar years
2001 and 2002 will be in the form of a  rebate).  Under  pre-existing  law,  VLF
funds  are  automatically  transferred  to  cities  and  counties,  so  the  new
legislation  provided for the General Fund to make up the  reductions.  The full
67.5% percent VLF cut will be offset by about $2.6 billion in General Fund money
in FY 2000-01,  and $3.6 billion  annually  for fiscal year  20001-02 and future
years. Other tax cuts in FY 1998-99 included an increase in the dependent credit
exemption for personal  income tax filers,  restoration of a renter's tax credit
for taxpayers,  and a variety of business tax relief measures. The total cost of
these tax cuts was estimated at $1.4 billion for FY 1998-99.

      FY 1999-2000  BUDGET.  The 1999-00 Budget Act was signed on June 29, 1999.
After the Governor used his line-item veto power to reduce expenditures by about
$581 million,  the final spending plan called for about $63.7 billion of General
Fund expenditures,  $16.1 billion of Special Fund expenditures, and $1.5 billion
in bond funded  expenditures.  The Governor's final budget actions left the SFEU
with an estimated balance of $881 million at June 30, 2000.

      The final Budget Act generally provided increased funding for a wide range
of  programs.  Education  spending  under  Proposition  98 received  the largest
increase (over $2.3 billion above 1998-99), with other significant increases for
higher education,  health and welfare, natural resources and capital outlay. The
budget provides  several hundred million dollars in direct new aid to cities and
counties.

      By the  spring  of 2000,  as the  fiscal  year  2000-01  budget  was being
enacted, the Administration released updated revenue and expenditure projections
for  1999-2000  and  2000-01.  These  reports  showed that the  State's  economy
remained  very  strong;  1999  had  the  greatest  growth  since  the end of the
recession in 1994. This growth,  together with the strong stock market, resulted
in  extraordinary  growth in revenues,  particular  personal  income taxes.  The
Administration  revised  its revenue  estimates  for  1999-2000  upward to $71.2
billion,  an increase of $8.2 billion  above the original  Budget Act  estimate.
Expenditures   were   projected  to  increase  to  about  $67.2   billion.   The
Administration's  projected  balance in the SFEU at June 30, 2000 increased from
about $880 million at the time of the original  Budget Act to over $7.2 billion.
Much of this balance will be spent in fiscal year 2000-01.  As noted above under
"Constitutional  Limitations on Taxes,  Other Charges and  Appropriations,"  the
extraordinary  and rapid  growth of State  revenues  placed  the State just $300
million under its Constitutional appropriations limit in fiscal year 1999-2000.

      Although,  as noted, the Administration  projected a budget reserve in the
SFEU of about $7.2  billion on June 30,  2000,  the General Fund fund balance on
that date also  reflects  $700 million of "loans" which the General Fund made to
local  schools in the  recession  years,  representing  cash  outlays  above the
mandatory   minimum   funding  level.   Settlement  of  litigation   over  these
transactions  in July 1996 calls for  repayment  of these  loans over the period
ending in 2001-02, about equally split between outlays from the General Fund and
from schools'  entitlements.  The 1999-2000  Budget Act contained a $350 million
appropriation from the General Fund toward this settlement.

      FISCAL YEAR 2000-01  BUDGET.  As noted above,  the  continuation of strong
economic  growth in the State resulted in substantial  additional  resources for
General Fund expenditures for fiscal year 2000-01. The Administration  estimated
over $12 billion additional revenue for the second half of fiscal year 1999-2000
and full year 2000-01,  compared to initial  estimates made in January 2000. The
2000-01  Budget Act (the "2000  Budget  Act") was signed on June 30,  2000.  The
spending plan assumes General Fund revenues and transfers of $73.9 billion,  and
appropriates  $78.8  billion  (the  difference  coming  from  the  SFEU  surplus
generated in fiscal year 1999-2000).  To avoid pressures on future budgets,  the
Administration  devoted  about $7.0  billion  of the new  spending  on  one-time
expenditures and investments.

      The Administration  estimated that the SFEU would have a balance of $1.781
billion  at June 30,  2001.  The  Governor  also  held back  $500  million  as a
set-aside for litigation  costs; if this amount is not fully spent during fiscal
year  2000-01,  the balance  would be added to the SFEU.  Because of the State's
strong cash position, the Administration announced the State would not undertake
any short-term cash flow borrowing in 2000-01.

      The  largest  program  in the  2000  Budget  Act is  aid  to  K-12  school
districts,  which  increased by $3.0 billion above 1999-2000  levels.  There was
also a large increase in funding for the public higher  education  systems,  and
for health and welfare  programs.  New investments were made for capital outlay,
including  $2.0 billion  General Fund support for  transportation  projects,  to
supplement gasoline taxes normally used for those purposes,  part of a five-year
$6.9 billion  transportation  package. A total of about $1.5 billion was devoted
to tax relief,  including the  additional  VLF reduction  described  above under
"Recent Budgets." The Legislature also enacted a one-time tax relief package for
senior  citizen  homeowners  and  renters  was valued at about $150  million,  a
personal  income tax credit  for  credentialed  teachers  ($218  million)  and a
refundable  tax credit for child care expenses ($195  million).  The 2000 Budget
Act included a $200 million  unrestricted grant to cities and counties,  as well
as about  $200  million in funding  to  support  various  local law  enforcement
programs.


                                       16
<PAGE>


      Although the State's  strong economy is producing  record  revenues to the
State government, the State's budget continues to be marked by mandated spending
on  education,  a  large  prison  population,  and  social  needs  of a  growing
population with many immigrants. These factors which limit State spending growth
also put pressure on local  governments.  There can be no  assurances  that,  if
economic  conditions  weaken,  or other  factors  intercede,  the State will not
experience budget gaps in the future.

BOND RATING

      The  ratings  on  California's  long-term  general  obligation  bonds were
reduced in the early  1990's from "AAA"  levels  which had existed  prior to the
recession.  After 1996, the three major rating  agencies raised their ratings of
California's  general  obligation  bonds,  which as of July,  2000 were assigned
ratings of "AA-" from Standard & Poor's, "Aa3" from Moody's and "AA" from Fitch.

      There can be no  assurance  that such ratings  will be  maintained  in the
future. It should be noted that the  creditworthiness  of obligations  issued by
local  California  issuers may be unrelated to  creditworthiness  of obligations
issued by the State of  California,  and that there is no obligation on the part
of the State to make payment on such local obligations in the event of default.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      The State is  involved  in certain  legal  proceedings  (described  in the
State's recent  financial  statements)  that, if decided against the State,  may
require the State to make significant  future  expenditures or may substantially
impair  revenues.  Trial courts have  recently  entered  tentative  decisions or
injunctions  which would  overturn  several  parts of the State's  recent budget
compromises. The matters covered by these lawsuits include reductions in welfare
payments and the use of certain  cigarette  tax funds for health  costs.  All of
these cases are subject to further  proceedings  and appeals,  and if California
eventually loses, the final remedies may not have to be implemented in one year.

OBLIGATIONS OF OTHER ISSUERS

      OTHER ISSUERS OF CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL  OBLIGATIONS.  There are a number of
State agencies,  instrumentalities and political  subdivisions of the State that
issue Municipal  Obligations,  some of which may be conduit revenue  obligations
payable from  payments  from private  borrowers.  These  entities are subject to
various  economic  risks  and  uncertainties,  and  the  credit  quality  of the
securities  issued by them may vary  considerably  from the  credit  quality  of
obligations backed by the full faith and credit of the State.

      STATE  ASSISTANCE.  Property  tax revenues  received by local  governments
declined more than 50% following  passage of Proposition 13.  Subsequently,  the
California Legislature enacted measures to provide for the redistribution of the
State's  General Fund surplus to local  agencies,  the  reallocation  of certain
State  revenues to local  agencies and the  assumption  of certain  governmental
functions  by the State to assist  municipal  issuers to raise  revenues.  Total
local assistance from the State's General Fund was budgeted at approximately 75%
of  General  Fund  expenditures  in  recent  years,   including  the  effect  of
implementing  reductions in certain aid  programs.  To reduce State General Fund
support for school  districts,  the 1992-93 and 1993-94 Budget Acts caused local
governments  to  transfer  $3.9  billion  of  property  tax  revenues  to school
districts,  representing  loss of the  post-Proposition  13 "bailout" aid. Local
governments have in return received greater revenues and greater  flexibility to
operate health and welfare programs.

      In 1997, a new program provided for the State to  substantially  take over
funding for local trial courts  (saving  cities and  counties  some $400 million
annually).  For the last several years, the State has also provided $100 million
annually to support local law enforcement costs. In 2000-01,  the State provided
$200 million in unrestricted grants to cities and counties.

      To the  extent  the  State  should be  constrained  by its  Article  XIIIB
appropriations  limit,  or its obligation to conform to Proposition 98, or other
fiscal  considerations,  the  absolute  level,  or the rate of growth,  of State


                                       17
<PAGE>


assistance to local governments may continue to be reduced.  Any such reductions
in State aid could compound the serious fiscal constraints  already  experienced
by many local  governments,  particularly  counties.  Los  Angeles  County,  the
largest  in the State,  was  forced to make  significant  cuts in  services  and
personnel,  particularly  in the health  care  system,  in order to balance  its
budget in FY1995-96 and  FY1996-97.  Orange  County,  which emerged from Federal
Bankruptcy  Court  protection in June 1996,  has  significantly  reduced  county
services and personnel,  and faces strict financial  conditions  following large
investment fund losses in 1994 which resulted in bankruptcy.

      Counties  and cities may face further  budgetary  pressures as a result of
changes in welfare and public assistance programs, which were enacted in August,
1997 in order to comply with the federal welfare reform law. Generally, counties
play a large role in the new system,  and are given  substantial  flexibility to
develop and  administer  programs to bring aid  recipients  into the  workforce.
Counties  are also  given  financial  incentives  if  either  at the  county  or
statewide level, the "Welfare-to-Work" programs exceed minimum targets; counties
are also  subject to  financial  penalties  for  failure  to meet such  targets.
Counties  remain  responsible to provide  "general  assistance"  for able-bodied
indigents who are ineligible for other welfare programs. The long-term financial
impact of the new CalWORKs system on local governments is still unknown.

      ASSESSMENT BONDS.  California  Municipal  Obligations which are assessment
bonds may be adversely  affected by a general decline in real estate values or a
slowdown in real estate sales activity. In many cases, such bonds are secured by
land  which  is  undeveloped  at the  time of  issuance  but  anticipated  to be
developed  within a few years after issuance.  In the event of such reduction or
slowdown,  such development may not occur or may be delayed,  thereby increasing
the risk of a default on the bonds.  Because  the special  assessments  or taxes
securing  these  bonds  are not the  personal  liability  of the  owners  of the
property assessed,  the lien on the property is the only security for the bonds.
Moreover,  in most  cases the  issuer  of these  bonds is not  required  to make
payments on the bonds in the event of  delinquency in the payment of assessments
or taxes,  except from amounts,  if any, in a reserve fund  established  for the
bonds.

      CALIFORNIA  LONG  TERM  LEASE  OBLIGATIONS.  Based  on a  series  of court
decisions,  certain long-term lease  obligations,  though typically payable from
the  general  fund  of  the  State  or  a   municipality,   are  not  considered
"indebtedness"  requiring voter approval.  Such leases,  however, are subject to
"abatement" in the event the facility being leased is unavailable for beneficial
use and occupancy by the municipality during the term of the lease. Abatement is
not a default,  and there may be no  remedies  available  to the  holders of the
certificates  evidencing the lease obligation in the event abatement occurs. The
most common  cases of  abatement  are failure to  complete  construction  of the
facility  before the end of the period  during  which lease  payments  have been
capitalized  and  uninsured  casualty  losses  to  the  facility  (e.g.,  due to
earthquake).  In the event abatement occurs with respect to a lease  obligation,
lease  payments may be  interrupted  (if all  available  insurance  proceeds and
reserves are exhausted) and the certificates may not be paid when due.  Although
litigation is brought from time to time which  challenges the  constitutionality
of such lease  arrangements,  the  California  Supreme  Court issued a ruling in
August, 1998 which reconfirmed the legality of these financing methods.

OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

      The  repayment  of  industrial  development  securities  secured  by  real
property  may be affected by  California  laws  limiting  foreclosure  rights of
creditors.  Securities  backed  by  health  care and  hospital  revenues  may be
affected by changes in State regulations governing cost reimbursements to health
care providers under Medi-Cal (the State's  Medicaid  program),  including risks
related to the policy of awarding exclusive contracts to certain hospitals.

      Limitations  on AD VALOREM  property  taxes may  particularly  affect "tax
allocation" bonds issued by California  redevelopment  agencies.  Such bonds are
secured solely by the increase in assessed valuation of a redevelopment  project
area  after the start of  redevelopment  activity.  In the event  that  assessed
values in the  redevelopment  project decline (e.g.,  because of a major natural
disaster such as an earthquake),  the tax increment  revenue may be insufficient
to make  principal  and interest  payments on these bonds.  Both Moody's and S&P
suspended  ratings on  California  tax  allocation  bonds after the enactment of
Articles XIIIA and XIIIB, and only resumed such ratings on a selective basis.

      Proposition 87, approved by California  voters in 1988,  requires that all
revenues  produced by a tax rate increase go directly to the taxing entity which
increased such tax rate to repay that entity's general obligation  indebtedness.


                                       18
<PAGE>


As a result,  redevelopment agencies (which,  typically,  are the issuers of tax
allocation securities) no longer receive an increase in tax increment when taxes
on property in the project  area are  increased to repay  voter-approved  bonded
indebtedness.

      The effect of these various  constitutional and statutory changes upon the
ability of California municipal securities issuers to pay interest and principal
on their obligations remains unclear. Furthermore,  other measures affecting the
taxing or spending authority of California or its political  subdivisions may be
approved or enacted in the  future.  Legislation  has been or may be  introduced
which would modify  existing  taxes or other  revenue-raising  measures or which
either would further limit or,  alternatively,  would  increase the abilities of
state and local  governments to impose new taxes or increase  existing taxes. It
is not possible, at present, to predict the extent to which any such legislation
will be enacted. Nor is it possible,  at present, to determine the impact of any
such  legislation  on  California  Municipal  Obligations  in which the Fund may
invest,  future  allocations  of  state  revenues  to local  governments  or the
abilities  of state or local  governments  to pay the  interest on, or repay the
principal of, such California Municipal Obligations.

      Substantially  all of  California  is  within an  active  geologic  region
subject to major  seismic  activity.  Northern  California  in 1989 and Southern
California in 1994 experienced major earthquakes  causing billions of dollars in
damages.  The federal government  provided more than $13 billion in aid for both
earthquakes,  and neither event has had any long-term  negative economic impact.
Any  California  Municipal  Obligation  in the  Fund  could  be  affected  by an
interruption of revenues because of damaged facilities, or, consequently, income
tax  deductions  for  casualty  losses or property  tax  assessment  reductions.
Compensatory  financial  assistance could be constrained by the inability of (i)
an issuer to have obtained earthquake  insurance coverage rates; (ii) an insurer
to perform on its contracts of insurance in the event of widespread  losses;  or
(iii) the federal or State  government to  appropriate  sufficient  funds within
their respective budget limitations.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS RELATING TO NEW JERSEY MUNICIPAL SECURITIES

      The  financial  condition  of the State of New Jersey (the  "State"),  its
public authorities (the  "Authorities") and its local governments,  could affect
the market  values and  marketability  of, and therefore the net asset value per
share and the interest  income of New Jersey  Municipal Money Fund, or result in
the default of existing obligations,  including obligations which may be held by
the Fund.  The  following  section  provides only a brief summary of the complex
factors  affecting  the  financial  situation  in New  Jersey  and is  based  on
information  obtained from New Jersey,  certain of its  Authorities  and certain
other  localities,  as  publicly  available  on the  date of this  Statement  of
Additional  Information.  The information  contained in such publicly  available
documents  has not been  independently  verified.  It should  be noted  that the
creditworthiness  of obligations issued by local issuers may be unrelated to the
creditworthiness  of New Jersey,  and that there is no obligation on the part of
New Jersey to make payment on such local  obligations in the event of default in
the absence of a specific guarantee or pledge provided by New Jersey.

ECONOMIC FACTORS

      New Jersey is the ninth largest state in population and the fifth smallest
in land  area.  According  to the  United  States  Bureau of the  Census and the
Department  of Labor,  the  population  of New  Jersey  was  7,170,000  in 1970,
7,365,000 in 1980,  7,730,000 in 1990 and 8,143,000 in 1999.  Historically,  New
Jersey's average per capita income has been well above the national average, and
in 1998 the State ranked second among the states in per capita  personal  income
($33,953).

      The  State's  economic  base is  diversified,  consisting  of a variety of
manufacturing,  construction and service industries, supplemented by rural areas
with  selective  commercial  agriculture.  The extensive  facilities of the Port
Authority of New York and New Jersey,  the Delaware River Port Authority and the
South  Jersey  Port  Corporation  across the  Delaware  River from  Philadelphia
augment the air, land and water transportation complex which has influenced much
of the  State's  economy.  The  State's  central  location  in the  northeastern
corridor,  the transportation and port facilities and proximity to New York City
make  the  State  an  attractive   location  for  corporate   headquarters   and
international business offices.

      While New Jersey's economy  continued to expand during the late 1980s, the
level of growth slowed considerably after 1987. By the beginning of the national
recession in July 1990 (according to the National Bureau of Economic  Research),


                                       19
<PAGE>


construction  activity had already  been  declining in New Jersey for nearly two
years,  growth had tapered off markedly in the service sectors and the long-term
downward  trend of  factory  employment  had  accelerated,  partly  because of a
leveling off of industrial demand  nationally.  The onset of recession caused an
acceleration of New Jersey's job losses in construction  and  manufacturing,  as
well as an employment  downturn in such previously  growing sectors as wholesale
trade, retail trade,  finance,  utilities and trucking and warehousing.  The net
effect was a decline in the State's  total  nonfarm wage and salary  employment,
according to the U.S.  Dept. of Labor,  from a peak of 3.69 million in 1989 to a
low of 3.46 million in 1992.  This low has been followed by an employment  gain,
reaching  3.80  million in 1998.  The New Jersey  Dept.  of Labor  reports  that
employment growth continued in 1999 to an estimated 3.87 million.

      The annual  average  jobless rate has fallen from 8.5 percent in 1992,  to
5.1 percent in 1997,  to 4.6% in 1998,  reaching an estimated  4.5% in 1999.  In
June 2000,  the State's  unemployment  rate of 3.7% was the lowest  monthly rate
since the 3.6% level in February  1989. In July of 2000, the  unemployment  rate
increased slightly to 3.7%.

      The New Jersey  Department of Labor reports that on a seasonally  adjusted
basis,  private nonfarm  employment climbed from 3.26 million in January 1999 to
3.32 million in December 1999.

      Conditions  have  slowly  improved  in the  construction  industry,  where
employment has risen by 21,100 since its low in May 1992. Between 1992 and 1996,
this sector's hiring rebound was driven primarily by increased  homebuilding and
nonresidential  projects.  During 1996 and early 1997, public works projects and
homebuilding  became  the  growth  segments  while  nonresidential  construction
lessened but remained  positive.  Construction  employment,  after  falling from
163,400 in 1987 to 110,200 in 1992,  has recovered to a level of 145,000 in July
2000, its highest level since July 1990.

      In the manufacturing  sector,  employment losses have continued during the
past twelve years. Total  manufacturing  employment in New Jersey was 672,200 in
1987, 530,400 in 1992, and 463,500 in 1999, a reduction of 31%.

      Total  employment in New Jersey has changed from 3.824 million in 1988, to
3.690 million in 1992, to 4.014 million in 1999. Looking forward, the New Jersey
Department of Labor projects that the State's  non-farm  employment  growth will
occur almost  exclusively  in the service  industries,  such as  transportation,
communications,  utilities,  wholesale  and retail  trade,  financial  services,
insurance,  real estate and public education. The State projects continuing slow
decline in manufactured goods employment.

STATE FINANCES

      The State  operates on a fiscal year  beginning July 1 and ending June 30.
For example, "Fiscal Year 2000" refers to the State's fiscal year beginning July
1, 2000 and ending June 30, 2001.

      The General Fund is the fund into which all State revenues,  not otherwise
restricted by statute, are deposited and from which appropriations are made. The
largest part of the total financial operations of the State are accounted for in
the General Fund. Revenues received from taxes, most Federal revenue and certain
miscellaneous  revenue items are recorded in the General Fund. The Appropriation
Acts  provide  the  basic  framework  for the  operation  of the  General  Fund.
Undesignated  Fund Balances are available for appropriation in succeeding fiscal
years.  There have been positive  Undesignated Fund Balances in the General Fund
at the end of each year since the State Constitution was adopted in 1947.

      The  estimates  for Fiscal  Year 2000 and  Fiscal  Year 2001  reflect  the
amounts contained in the Governor's Fiscal Year 2001 Budget Message delivered on
January 24,  2000.  General  Fund  balances  for Fiscal  Years 2000 and 2001 are
projected  to be $206.2  million and $130.8  million.  Total  Undesignated  Fund
balances for Fiscal Years 2000 and 2001 are projected to be $1,176.2 million and
$850.4 million.

FISCAL YEARS 2000 AND 2001 STATE REVENUE ESTIMATES

      The January estimate of $19.8 billion in total fiscal 2000 revenue is $503
million more than when the Governor  certified  revenues in June 1999.  Revenues
for fiscal 2001 are expected to increase more  modestly as the national  economy
slows to more sustainable long-run growth levels.

      The three  largest  taxes,  Gross Income,  Sales and Use, and  Corporation
Business,  account  for 71% of total  revenues  and are  expected  to yield  $14
billion.

      SALES  AND USE TAX.  The  revised  estimate  forecasts  Sales  and Use tax
collections for Fiscal Year 2000 as $5.6 billion,  a 10.3% rate of growth rather
than the 5.5% rate originally  expected.  This reflects a stronger than expected
level of  consumer  and  business  purchases  in the  last  half of 1999 and the
successful transition to the year 2000 without any major Y2K disruptions.

      The Fiscal Year 2001 estimate of $6.0 billion, is a 7.5% increase from the
revised  Fiscal Year 2000  estimate.  This reflects an  expectation of continued
growth,  but a moderation of the underlying  economic  forces compared to Fiscal
Year 2000.  Spending  in the two key  consumer  sectors of housing  and autos is
expected to decline slightly from high 1999 levels and then remain fairly stable
for the next two years.

      GROSS INCOME TAX. The January revised estimate  forecasts Gross Income Tax
collections  for Fiscal Year 2000 of $7.0  billion,  an increase of $215 million
over the June 1999 certified revenue estimate.  Stronger than anticipated income
and employment growth in 1999 account for part of the change.

      The Fiscal Year 2001  estimate of $7.6 billion is a 7.7% increase from the
Fiscal Year 2000 estimate. This assumes continuation of the strong growth in New
Jersey  personal  income  forecasted to grow at 5.8% in 1999,  6.1% in 2000, and
5.2% in 2001. Growth in wage income,  which was 7.9% in 1998 and is projected to
be 7.4% in  1999,  is  expected  to ease  back to 6.1% in 2000 and 4.7% in 2001.
Capital  gains income that had been  growing at annual  rates of 25-40%  between
1995 and 1999 is  expected  to grow at 5% in 2000 and 9% in 2001.  The tax base,
which is New Jersey  Gross  Income,  is  anticipated  to grow 5.9% in 2000 after
exceptionally strong growth of 11.6% in 1998 and 8.4% in 1999, fueled in part by
the strong performance of the financial markets.

      CORPORATION  BUSINESS TAX. The  Corporate  Business Tax is revised down by
$44 million to $1.4 billion.  Anticipated fiscal 2000 growth of 0.1% compared to
fiscal  1999 is low in part  because of  adjustments  for  one-time  revenues in
fiscal 1999 and the provision of $50 million in expected refunds associated with
a new program for the transfers of unused tax credits.

      The Fiscal Year 2001 estimate of $1.5 billion, is a 6.4% increase from the
Fiscal  Year  2000  estimate.  This  increase  assumes  that the  growth of U.S.
Corporation  before-tax profits,  which is a rough proxy for New Jersey business
profitability,  while still positive,  will be lower than in 1999. Profit growth
is anticipated to continue in the low single digits through the year 2002. Gross
payments  for fiscal  2001 are  expected  to grow at 4%  compared to the current
5.4%.

      GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS.  Estimated receipts from State taxes and revenues,
including the three principal taxes set forth above,  are forecasts based on the
best  information  available at the time of such forecasts.  Changes in economic
activity in the State and the nation,  consumption of durable  goods,  corporate
financial performance and other factors that are difficult to predict may result
in actual collections being more or less than forecasted.

      Should  revenues be less than the amount  anticipated  in the budget for a
fiscal year,  the Governor  may,  pursuant to statutory  authority,  prevent any
expenditure  under any  appropriation.  There are additional  means by which the
Governor may ensure that the State is operated  efficiently and does not incur a
deficit.  No  supplemental  appropriation  may be enacted  after  adoption of an
appropriations  act  except  where  there  are  sufficient  revenues  on hand or
anticipated,  as certified by the Governor,  to meet such appropriation.  In the
past when  actual  revenues  have been less than the amount  anticipated  in the


                                       21
<PAGE>


budget,  the Governor has exercised her plenary  powers  leading to, among other
actions,  implementation  of a hiring freeze for all State  departments  and the
discontinuation of programs for which  appropriations  were budgeted but not yet
spent. Under the State Constitution,  no general appropriations law or other law
appropriating  money for any State purpose may be enacted if the amount of money
appropriated therein,  together with all other prior appropriations made for the
same fiscal year, exceeds the total amount of revenue on hand and anticipated to
be available for such fiscal year, as certified by the Governor.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS RELATING TO NEW YORK MUNICIPAL SECURITIES

      The financial  condition of the State of New York ("New York State" or the
"State"),   its  public   authorities  and  public  benefit   corporations  (the
"Authorities") and its local governments, particularly The City of New York (the
"City"),  could affect the market values and marketability of, and therefore the
net asset value per share and the  interest  income of a fund,  or result in the
default of existing obligations,  including obligations which may be held by the
fund. The following section provides only a brief summary of the complex factors
affecting  the  financial  situation  in New York  and is  based on  information
obtained from New York State,  certain of its Authorities,  the City and certain
other localities as publicly  available on the date of this SAI. The information
contained  in such  publicly  available  documents  has not  been  independently
verified.  It should be noted that the creditworthiness of obligations issued by
local issuers may be unrelated to the  creditworthiness  of New York State,  and
that there is no  obligation  on the part of New York  State to make  payment on
such local  obligations  in the event of  default  in the  absence of a specific
guarantee or pledge provided by New York State.

      ECONOMIC FACTORS.  New York is the third most populous state in the nation
and has a  relatively  high level of personal  wealth.  The  State's  economy is
diverse,  with a comparatively  large share of the nation's finance,  insurance,
transportation,  communications and services employment,  and a very small share
of the  nation's  farming  and mining  activity.  The State's  location  and its
excellent air transport facilities and natural harbors have made it an important
link in international commerce.  Travel and tourism constitute an important part
of the economy. Like the rest of the nation, New York has a declining proportion
of its workforce engaged in manufacturing,  and an increasing proportion engaged
in service industries.

      Both the State and the City experienced  substantial  revenue increases in
the  mid-1980s  and late  1990s  attributable  directly  (corporate  income  and
financial  corporations taxes) and indirectly  (personal income and a variety of
other  taxes) to growth in new jobs,  rising  profits and  capital  appreciation
derived from the finance sector of the City's economy.  Economic activity in the
City has  experienced  periods of growth and  recession  and can be  expected to
experience  periods of growth and recession in the future.  In recent years, the
City has  experienced  increases in employment.  Real per capita personal income
(i.e.,  per capita personal income adjusted for the effects of inflation and the
differential in living costs) has generally  experienced fewer fluctuations than
employment in the City. Although the City periodically  experienced  declines in
real per capita  personal income between 1969 and 1981, real per capita personal
income in the City has generally increased from the mid-1980s until the present.
In nearly all of the years  between  1969 and 1990 the City  experienced  strong
increases in retail sales.  However,  from 1991 to 1993, the City  experienced a
weak period of retail  sales.  Since 1994,  the City has returned to a period of
growth in retail  sales.  Overall,  the City's  economic  improvement  continued
strongly  into  fiscal  year  2000.  Much of the  increase  can be traced to the
performance  of the  securities  industry,  but the City's economy also produced
gains in the retail trade sector,  the hotel and tourism industry,  and business
services, with private sector employment higher than previously forecasted.  The
City's current  Financial  Plan assumes that,  after strong growth in 1998-1999,
moderate  economic growth will exist through calendar year 2003, with moderating
job growth  and wage  increases.  However,  there can be no  assurance  that the
economic  projections  assumed in the Financial  Plan will occur or that the tax
revenues  projected in the Financial Plan to be received will be received in the
amounts anticipated.  Additionally, the securities industry is more important to
the New York economy  than the  national  economy,  potentially  amplifying  the
impact of a downturn.

      During the calendar  years 1987 through 1998, the State's rate of economic
expansion  was  somewhat  slower  than  that of the  nation  as a whole.  In the
1990-1991 national recession and post-recession period, the economy of the State
and that of the rest of the Northeast was more heavily  damaged than that of the
rest of the nation and has been slower to recover.  However,  the  situation has
been improving in the recent years.  In 1999, the employment  growth rate of the
State  surpassed  the  national  growth  rate for the  first  time in 13  years.
Although  the State  unemployment  rate has been higher than the  national  rate
since 1991, the gap between them has narrowed in recent years.


                                       22
<PAGE>


      The forecast of the State's economy shows continued  expansion  throughout
2000. Most major sectors  recorded  significant  employment  gains for the first
half of 2000, with the services sector accounting for most of the increase. Much
of this increase  occurred in business  services.  The employment growth rate in
2000  exceeds  the  national  employment  growth  rate and is expected to be 2.1
percent,  which,  although  lower than 1999's 2.6  percent,  represents  another
strong year for the New York labor market which has  historically  lagged behind
national  employment trends. The unemployment rate is expected to be 4.9 percent
in 2000, down from 5.1 percent in 1999.

      Personal  income is  expected  to rise 6.5  percent  in 2000,  with an 8.2
percent  increase  in wages.  Two major  factors  are  working to  produce  this
impressive  growth in wages.  One is the overall  tightness in the labor market,
and the other is strong growth in financial sector bonus payments.

      Given the  importance  of the  securities  industry  in the New York State
economy,  a significant  change in stock market  performance during the forecast
horizon  could  result  in  financial   sector  profits  and  bonuses  that  are
significantly  different from those embodied in the forecast. Any actions by the
Federal  Reserve Board to moderate  inflation by increasing  interest rates more
than anticipated may have an adverse impact in New York given the sensitivity of
financial markets to interest rate shifts and the prominence of these markets in
the  New   York   economy.   In   addition,   there   is  a   possibility   that
greater-than-anticipated  mergers, downsizing, and relocation of firms caused by
deregulation  and global  competition  may have a significant  adverse effect on
employment growth.

      On May 10, 2000,  the State  issued the 2000-01  Financial  Plan,  with an
update  released on July 31, 2000 (the  "Financial  Plan").  The Financial  Plan
forecasts  General Fund receipts and transfers  from other funds for the 2000-01
fiscal year to total $39.72  billion.  In 2000-01,  General Fund  disbursements,
including  transfers to support capital projects,  debt service and other funds,
are  estimated at $39.29  billion,  an increase of more than $2 billion over the
1999-2000  fiscal year.  Projected  spending under the 2000-01 enacted budget is
$992 million above the Governor's Executive Budget recommendations.

      The 2000-01  Financial Plan projects a closing balance in the General Fund
of $1.34 billion.  This closing balance is comprised of $305 million in reserves
for  collective  bargaining  and  other  purposes,   $547  million  in  the  Tax
Stabilization  Reserve Fund (for use in case of  unanticipated  deficits),  $150
million in the Contingency  Reserve Fund (which helps offset litigation  risks),
and $338 million in the  Community  Projects  Fund (which  finances  legislative
initiatives).  The closing fund balance does not include additional  reserves of
$1.2 billion in the School Tax Relief  (STAR)  Special  Revenue Fund (for future
STAR payments) and $250 million in the Debt Reduction  Reserve Fund (for 2001-02
debt reduction).

      Several  developments  arising from negotiations on the budget will affect
State finances in subsequent years. First, a portion of Legislative additions to
the 2000-01 Executive Budget will recur at higher spending levels in 2001-02 and
beyond,  including  increased  funding for school aid, tuition  assistance,  and
prescription drug coverage for the elderly.  Second, the Legislature enacted the
Debt Reform Act of 2000 (Debt Reform Act). The Debt Reform Act, which applies to
new  State-supported  debt issued on or after April 1, 2000, imposes caps on new
debt  outstanding  and new  debt  service  costs,  restricts  the use of debt to
capital purposes only, and restricts the maximum term of State debt issuances to
no more than 30 years.  Finally,  the State  adopted  an  additional  tax relief
package that will reduce tax receipts by $1.2 billion when fully effective; this
package  includes the elimination or reduction of gross receipts taxes on energy
($330 million),  the expansion of the "Power for Jobs" energy tax credit program
($125  million),  a college tuition  deduction or credit taken against  personal
income taxes ($200 million), and reduction of the marriage penalty for taxpayers
who file jointly ($200 million).

      SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. Despite recent budgetary surpluses recorded by the
State,  actions affecting the level of receipts and disbursements,  the relative
strength  of the  State  and  regional  economy,  and  actions  by  the  federal
government could impact  projected  budget gaps for the State.  These gaps would
result from a disparity between  recurring  revenues and the costs of increasing
the level of support for State programs. To address a potential imbalance in any
given  fiscal  year,  the State would be  required  to take  actions to increase
receipts and/or reduce disbursements as it enacts the budget for that year, and,
under the State  Constitution,  the  Governor  is required to propose a balanced
budget each year. There can be no assurance,  however, that the Legislature will
enact the Governor's proposals or that the State's actions will be sufficient to
preserve budgetary balance in a given fiscal year or to align recurring receipts
and disbursements in future fiscal years.


                                       23
<PAGE>


      Many complex  political,  social and economic forces influence the State's
economy and finances, which may in turn affect the 2000-01 Financial Plan. These
forces may affect the State  unpredictably  from  fiscal year to fiscal year and
are influenced by governments,  institutions, and events that are not subject to
the State's  control.  The 2000-01  Financial  Plan is based upon  forecasts  of
national and State economic  activity  developed  through both internal analysis
and review of national  and State  economic  forecasts  prepared  by  commercial
forecasting   services   and  other   public  and  private   forecasters.   Many
uncertainties  exist in  forecasts  of both the  national  and State  economies,
including  consumer  attitudes  toward  spending,  the extent of  corporate  and
governmental  restructuring,  the  condition of the  financial  sector,  federal
fiscal and monetary policies,  the level of interest rates, and the condition of
the world economy, which could have an adverse effect on the State. There can be
no assurance that the State economy will not  experience  results in the current
fiscal  year that are worse than  predicted,  with  corresponding  material  and
adverse effects on the State's projections of receipts and disbursements.

      An additional  risk to the State  Financial Plan arises from the potential
impact of certain  litigation and of federal  disallowances  now pending against
the State, which could adversely affect the State's  projections of receipts and
disbursements.  The State  Financial Plan assumes no  significant  litigation or
federal  disallowance or other federal actions that could affect State finances,
but has significant reserves in the event of such an action.

      REVENUE  BASE.  The State's  principal  revenue  sources are  economically
sensitive, and include the personal income tax, user taxes and fees and business
taxes. Total General Fund receipts and transfers from other funds in 2000-01 are
projected  to be $39.72  billion,  an increase of $2.32  billion from the $37.40
billion  recorded  in  1999-2000.  This  total  includes  $36.35  billion in tax
receipts,  $1.34  billion  in  miscellaneous  receipts,  and  $2.03  billion  in
transfers  from other  funds.  The  transfer  of $3.4  billion in net  resources
through the tax refund  reserve  account from  1999-2000  to the 2000-01  fiscal
period has the effect of exaggerating  the growth in State receipts from year to
year by depressing reported 1999-2000 figures and inflating 2000-01 projections.

      The Personal Income Tax is imposed on the income of  individuals,  estates
and trusts and is based, with certain  modifications,  on federal definitions of
income and  deductions.  Net General Fund personal  income tax  collections  are
projected to reach $24.33 billion in 2000-01, well over half of all General Fund
receipts and nearly $4 billion above the reported  1999-2000  collection  total.
Much of this  increase  is  associated  with the $3.4  billion net impact of the
transfer of the surplus from  1999-2000 to the current year as partially  offset
by the  diversion of an  additional  $1.99 billion in income tax receipts to the
STAR Fund. The STAR program was created in 1998 as a State-funded local property
tax relief  program  funded  through  the use of personal  income tax  receipts.
Adjusted  for these  transactions,  the  growth in net income  tax  receipts  is
roughly $1.3 billion, an increase of nearly 5 percent.  This growth is largely a
function  of two  factors:  (i) the 9 percent  growth in  income  tax  liability
projected for tax year 2000; and (ii) the impact of the 1999 tax year settlement
recorded early in this fiscal year. The most significant  statutory changes made
this fiscal year  provide  for: an  increase,  phased in over two years,  in the
earned income tax credit from 25 percent to 30 percent of the federal credit;  a
three-year  phased-in  reduction of the marriage penalty; a four-year  phased-in
deduction  or credit  for  college  tuition;  and  enhancement  of the child and
dependent care credit effective January 1, 2000.

      USER TAXES AND FEES are  comprised of  three-quarters  of the State's four
percent sales and use tax, cigarette,  tobacco products, alcoholic beverage, and
auto rental taxes, and a portion of the motor fuel excise levies.  This category
also  includes  receipts  from the motor  vehicle  fees and  alcoholic  beverage
license fees. Dedicated transportation funds outside of the General Fund receive
a portion of the motor fuel tax and motor vehicle  registration  fees and all of
the highway use taxes and fees.  Receipts from user taxes and fees are projected
to total $7.02 billion, a decrease of $583 million below reported collections in
1999-2000.

      The sales tax and  cigarette tax  components of this category  account for
virtually  all of the  2000-01  decline.  Growth in base sales tax yield,  after
adjusting  for tax law changes and other  factors,  is projected at 4.5 percent.
The projected  decrease in sales tax cash receipts of 3.4 percent  reflects,  in
large part,  the impact of the  permanent  exemption  for  clothing and footwear
items  costing under $110.  Cigarette tax and tobacco  products tax receipts are
projected  to  decline  by  $146  million   primarily  due  to  reduced  taxable
consumption  associated  with the increase in the  cigarette tax of 55 cents per
pack  imposed  on March 1, 2000.  The  decline in the motor fuel taxes and motor
vehicle fees in the General Fund largely  reflect the  increased  dedication  of
these  revenue  sources to the  Dedicated  Highway and Bridge Trust Fund and the
Dedicated Mass Transportation  Trust Fund. Alcoholic beverage taxes are expected
to decline  modestly,  consistent with  historical  trends.  Alcoholic  beverage
license  fees are  projected to increase  significantly  as 2000-01 is the final


                                       24
<PAGE>


year in the transition to the new license renewal schedule. A modest increase in
auto rental tax receipts over 1999-2000 levels is projected.

      BUSINESS TAXES include  franchise  taxes based  generally on net income of
general   business,   bank  and  insurance   corporations,   as  well  as  gross
receipts-based taxes on utilities and gallonage-based petroleum business taxes.

      Total  business tax  collections  in 2000-01 are now projected to be $4.23
billion,  $332 million  below  results for the prior  fiscal year.  The category
includes  receipts from:  (1) franchise tax levies  imposed on general  business
corporations, banks, and insurance companies; (2) gross receipts taxes on energy
and telecommunication  service providers; and (3) a tax imposed at various rates
on petroleum businesses.

      The   year-over-year   decline  in  projected  receipts  in  business  tax
collections  is largely  attributable  to statutory  changes.  These include the
first  year  impact  of a  scheduled  bank  and  insurance  franchise  tax  rate
reduction,  a reduction in the cap on tax liability for non-life  insurers,  and
the expansion of the economic development zone (renamed Empire Zones,  effective
May 19,  2000) and zone  equivalent  areas tax credits.  Ongoing tax  reductions
include the second year of the corporation  franchise rate reduction,  the gross
receipts tax rate cut from 3.25 percent to 2.5 percent,  the continuation of the
"Power  for  Jobs"  program,  and  the use of tax  credits  for  investments  in
certified capital companies.

      Legislation  enacted this fiscal year affecting  receipts in this category
include:  a phased  reduction  in the gross  receipts  tax, an  expansion of the
"Power  for Jobs"  program,  expansion  of the tax  credit  for  investments  in
certified capital companies,  establishment of the Empire Zones program, reforms
to allocation  rules for financial  service  companies,  tax rate reductions for
small businesses and S-corporations,  a new tax credit for investments in "green
buildings,"  and a new tax  credit  for  investment  in low and  moderate-income
housing.

      OTHER TAXES include the estate and gift tax, the real  property  gains tax
and  pari-mutuel  taxes.  Other tax  receipts  are now  projected  to total $766
million, $341 million below 1999-2000 levels. The primary factors accounting for
this decline are  legislation  enacted  previously  that  repealed both the real
property gains tax and the gift tax, and significantly reduced estate tax rates,
and the incremental effects of tax reductions in the pari-mutuel tax.

      MISCELLANEOUS  RECEIPTS  include  investment  income,  abandoned  property
receipts,  medical  provider  assessments,  minor federal grants,  receipts from
public  authorities,   and  certain  other  license  and  fee  revenues.   Total
miscellaneous  receipts are expected to reach $1.34  billion,  down $309 million
from  the  prior  year  amount.   This   reflects  the  absence  in  2000-01  of
non-recurring  receipts  received in 1999-2000  and the phase-out of the medical
provider  assessments,  completed in January  2000.  The State  Comptroller  has
restated medical provider  assessments in the General Fund, which has the effect
of increasing  reported  miscellaneous  receipts and spending in grants to local
governments by $120 million in 1997-98 and $82 million in 1998-99.

      TRANSFERS  FROM OTHER FUNDS to the General Fund  consist  primarily of tax
revenues in excess of debt service requirements, including the one percent sales
tax used to support payments to Local Government Assistance  Corporation (LGAC).
Transfers from other funds are expected to total $2.03 billion,  or $108 million
less than total receipts from this category during 1999-2000. Total transfers of
sales taxes in excess of LGAC debt service requirements are expected to decrease
by $74 million consistent with the sales tax projections  described above, while
transfers from all other funds are expected to decrease by $34 million.

      STATE DEBT. The State's 2000-01 borrowing plan projects  issuances of $367
million in general  obligation  bonds,  including  $45 million  for  purposes of
redeeming the remaining  outstanding BANs. The State does not anticipate issuing
new BANs during the 2000-01  fiscal  year.  The State is expected to issue up to
$276  million  in  COPs to  finance  equipment  purchases  (including  costs  of
issuance,  reserve  funds,  and other costs) during the 2000-01  fiscal year. Of
this amount,  it is anticipated that  approximately  $76 million will be used to
finance agency equipment acquisitions. Approximately $200 million is expected to
finance the purchase of new welfare  computer  systems  designed to improve case
management, fraud detection and child support collection capabilities.


                                       25
<PAGE>


      Borrowings  by  public   authorities   pursuant  to   lease-purchase   and
contractual-obligation   financings  for  capital  programs  of  the  State  are
projected to total  approximately  $2.91 billion,  including  costs of issuance,
reserve  funds,  and  other  costs,  net of  anticipated  refundings  and  other
adjustments in 2000-01.

      NONRECURRING  SOURCES.  The  Division  of the  Budget  estimates  that the
2000-01  Financial  Plan contains new actions in the enacted budget that provide
non-recurring resources totaling approximately $36 million, excluding use of the
1999-2000 surplus.

      OUTYEAR PROJECTIONS OF RECEIPTS AND DISBURSEMENTS.  State law requires the
Governor  to propose a balanced  budget each year.  Preliminary  analysis by the
Division of Budget  indicates  that the State will have a 2001-02  budget gap of
approximately  $2 billion,  which is comparable  with gaps  projected  following
enactment of recent budgets.  This estimate  includes the projected costs of new
collective bargaining  agreements,  no assumed operating  efficiencies,  and the
planned  application  of  approximately  $1.2  billion  in  STAR  tax  reduction
reserves.

      In recent  years,  the State has closed  projected  budget gaps which have
ranged from $5 billion to less than $1 billion (as  estimated by the Division of
Budget).  Sustained  growth in the State's  economy could  contribute to closing
potential  budget  imbalances  over the  next  several  years,  both in terms of
higher-than-projected  tax  receipts  and  in  lower-than-expected   entitlement
spending.  Savings from  initiatives by State agencies to deliver  services more
efficiently,  workforce  management  efforts,  and  maximization  of federal and
non-General Fund spending offsets could also help bring projected  disbursements
and receipts into balance.

      The  Division  of the  Budget  will  formally  update its  projections  of
receipts and  disbursements  for future years as part of the Governor's  2001-02
Executive  Budget  submission.  The  revised  expectations  for these years will
reflect updated  estimates of receipts and  disbursements as well as new 2001-02
Executive Budget recommendations.

      TOBACCO SETTLEMENT  PROCEEDS AND USES. On November 23, 1998, the attorneys
general  for  forty-six  states  (including  New  York)  entered  into a  master
settlement  agreement  (MSA) with the nation's  largest  tobacco  manufacturers.
Under the terms of the MSA, the states agreed to release the manufacturers  from
all smoking-related claims in exchange for specified payments and the imposition
of restrictions on tobacco  advertising and marketing.  New York is projected to
receive $25 billion over 25 years under the MSA, with payments apportioned among
the State (51 percent),  counties (22 percent),  and New York City (27 percent).
The  projected  payments  (but not the  apportionment  of the  payments)  are an
estimate and subject to adjustments  for, among other things,  the annual change
in the volume of cigarette  shipments and the rate of inflation.  From 1999-2000
through 2002-03, the State expects to receive $1.54 billion under the nationwide
settlement with cigarette manufacturers.  Counties, including New York City, are
projected to receive settlement payments of $1.47 billion over the same period.

      The 2000-01  Financial Plan utilizes certain resources from HCRA 2000, the
successor legislation to the Health Care Reform Act of 1996. HCRA 2000 continues
the negotiated  reimbursement system for  non-governmental  payors, and provides
funding for, among other things, graduate medical education,  indigent care, and
the expansion of health  insurance  coverage for uninsured  adults and children.
HCRA  2000  will  help  finance  several  health-related   programs,   including
prescription drug assistance for the elderly,  supplemental  Medicare insurance,
and other public health  services that were  previously  funded from the General
Fund. Programs under HCRA 2000 will be financed with revenues generated from the
financing  mechanisms  continued from HCRA 1996, a share of the State's  tobacco
settlement and revenues from an increased excise tax on cigarettes.

      The State plans to use $1.29 billion in tobacco  settlement money over the
next three years to finance health  programs under HCRA 2000 ($1.01 billion) and
projected increased costs in Medicaid ($274 million). The remaining $250 million
in one-time tobacco payments from 1999-2000 will be deposited to DRRF.

      LABOR COSTS. The State government  workforce is mostly unionized,  subject
to the Taylor Law which authorizes  collective bargaining and prohibits (but has
not,  historically,  prevented)  strikes and work slowdowns.  Costs for employee
health  benefits have  increased  substantially,  and can be expected to further
increase.  The State has  completed  or is  currently  negotiating  with various
unions to establish  new  agreements as most of the labor  contracts  expired on
March 31, 1999. The 2000-01 Financial Plan has reserved sufficient money for the
added costs incurred under collective  bargaining  agreements,  and reserves are
contained  in the  preliminary  outyear  projections  for  2001-02  to cover the
projected recurring costs of new agreements.


                                       26
<PAGE>


      Since  January  1995,  the State's  workforce has been reduced by about 10
percent, and is projected to be approximately 195,000 persons in 2000-01.

      PUBLIC ASSISTANCE.  Spending on welfare is projected in the 2000-01 fiscal
year at $1.20  billion,  a decline of $77  million  from the prior  year.  Since
1994-95, State spending on welfare has fallen by more than 25 percent, driven by
significant  welfare  changes  initiated  at the Federal and State  levels and a
large, steady decline in the number of people receiving benefits.

      Federal law  enacted in 1996  abolished  the federal Aid to Families  with
Dependent  Children  program  (AFDC) and created a new  Temporary  Assistance to
Needy  Families  with  Dependent  Children  program  (TANF)  funded with a fixed
federal block grant to states. The law also imposes (with certain  exceptions) a
five-year  durational  limit on TANF  recipients,  requires  that  virtually all
recipients be engaged in work or community  service  activities within two years
of receiving benefits,  and limits assistance provided to certain immigrants and
other classes of individuals.

      MEDICAID.  New York  participates in the federal  Medicaid program under a
state plan  approved by the Health Care  Financing  Administration.  The federal
government  provides a substantial  portion of eligible program costs,  with the
remainder  shared by the State and its  counties  (including  the  City).  Basic
program eligibility and benefits are determined by federal  guidelines,  but the
State provides a number of optional benefits and expanded  eligibility.  Program
costs have  increased  substantially  in recent years,  and account for a rising
share  of  the  State  budget.   Federal  law  requires  that  the  State  adopt
reimbursement  rates for  hospitals and nursing  homes that are  reasonable  and
adequate to meet the costs that must be incurred by efficiently and economically
operated  facilities in providing  patient care, a standard that has led to past
litigation by hospitals and nursing homes seeking higher  reimbursement from the
State.   Medicaid  is  the  second  largest  program,   after  grants  to  local
governments,  in the General  Fund.  Payments for  Medicaid are  projected to be
$5.59 billion in 2000-01.

      THE STATE  AUTHORITIES.  The fiscal  stability  of the State is related in
part to the fiscal stability of its public authorities. Public authorities refer
to public benefit corporations,  created pursuant to State law, other than local
authorities.   Public   authorities  are  not  subject  to  the   constitutional
restrictions  on the  incurrence of debt which apply to the State itself and may
issue  bonds  and  notes  within  the  amounts  and  restrictions  set  forth in
legislative authorization. The State's access to the public credit markets could
be impaired and the market price of its  outstanding  debt may be materially and
adversely  affected  if any of its public  authorities  were to default on their
respective  obligations,  particularly  those  using  the  financing  techniques
referred to as State-supported  or State-related  debt. As of December 31, 1999,
there were 17 public  authorities with outstanding debt of $100 million or more,
and the aggregate  outstanding  debt,  including  refunding  bonds, of all State
public  authorities  was  $95  billion,  only a  portion  of  which  constitutes
State-supported or State-related debt.

      The State has numerous public  authorities with various  responsibilities,
including those which finance, construct and/or operate revenue producing public
facilities.  Public  authority  operating  expenses and debt  service  costs are
generally paid by revenues generated by the projects financed or operated,  such
as tolls charged for the use of highways, bridges or tunnels, charges for public
power, electric and gas utility services, rentals charged for housing units, and
charges for occupancy at medical care facilities.

      In addition, State legislation authorizes several financing techniques for
public authorities.  Also there are statutory  arrangements  providing for State
local  assistance  payments  otherwise  payable to  localities  to be made under
certain  circumstances  to  public  authorities.   Although  the  State  has  no
obligation to provide additional assistance to localities whose local assistance
payments  have been paid to public  authorities  under these  arrangements,  the
affected  localities may seek additional  State  assistance if local  assistance
payments  are  diverted.   Some  authorities  also  receive  moneys  from  State
appropriations to pay for the operating costs of certain of their programs.  The
MTA  receives  the bulk of this money in order to provide  transit and  commuter
services.

      Beginning  in  1998,  the  Long  Island  Power  Authority  (LIPA)  assumed
responsibility  for  the  provision  of  electric  utility  services  previously
provided by Long Island  Lighting  Company for Nassau,  Suffolk and a portion of
Queens  Counties,  as part of an estimated $7 billion  financing plan. As of May
31, 2000,  LIPA has issued over $7 billion in bonds secured  solely by ratepayer
charges.  LIPA's debt is not considered either  State-supported or State-related
debt.


                                       27

      METROPOLITAN  TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY.  Since 1980, the State has enacted
several  taxes --  including  a  surcharge  on the  profits of banks,  insurance
corporations and general business  corporations  doing business in the 12 county
Metropolitan  Transportation  Region served by the MTA and a special one quarter
of 1  percent  regional  sales  and use tax -- that  provide  revenues  for mass
transit  purposes,  including  assistance  to the MTA.  Since 1987 State law has
required that the proceeds of a one quarter of 1 percent mortgage  recording tax
paid on certain mortgages in the Metropolitan Transportation Region be deposited
in a special MTA fund for  operating  or capital  expenses.  In 1993,  the State
dedicated a portion of certain  additional State petroleum business tax receipts
to fund operating or capital  assistance to the MTA. The 2000-01  enacted budget
provides State  assistance to the MTA totaling  approximately  $1.35 billion and
initiates  a  five-year  State  transportation  plan that  includes  nearly $2.2
billion in  dedicated  revenue  support for the MTA's  capital plan for the 2000
through  2004  calendar  years (the  "2000-04  Capital  Program").  This capital
commitment  includes  an  additional  $800  million  of  newly  dedicated  State
petroleum  business tax  revenues,  motor  vehicle fees and motor fuel taxes not
previously dedicated to the MTA.

      State legislation accompanying the 2000-01 adopted State budget authorized
the MTA,  Triborough  Bridge and Tunnel Authority and Transit Authority to issue
an aggregate of $16.5 billion in bonds to finance a portion of the $17.1 billion
2000-04 Capital Program. On May 4, 2000, the Capital Program Review Board (CPRB)
approved the 2000-04 Capital Program,  which is the fifth capital plan since the
Legislature  authorized  procedures for the adoption,  approval and amendment of
MTA capital  programs  and is designed to upgrade the  performance  of the MTA's
transportation   systems  by  investing  in  new  rolling   stock,   maintaining
replacement schedules for existing assets,  bringing the MTA system into a state
of good repair, and making major investments in system expansion projects.

      The 2000-04  Capital  Program  assumes the issuance of an  estimated  $8.9
billion in bonds  under this $16.5  billion  aggregate  bonding  authority.  The
remainder of the plan is projected to be financed  through  assistance  from the
State, the federal government,  and the City of New York, and from various other
revenues generated from actions taken by the MTA. In addition, the enacted State
budget authorized the MTA to undertake a major debt restructuring initiate which
will enable the MTA to refund approximately $13.7 billion in bonds,  consolidate
its  credit  sources,  and  obviate  the  need for debt  service  reserves.  The
authorization  for debt  restructuring  includes  outstanding  bonds  secured by
service contract with the State.

      There can be no assurance that all the necessary  governmental actions for
future capital programs will be taken, that funding sources currently identified
will not be decreased or eliminated,  or that the 2000-04  Capital  Program,  or
parts thereof, will not be delayed or reduced.  Should funding levels fall below
current  projections,  the MTA would have to revise its 2000-04  Capital Program
accordingly. If the 2000-04 Capital Program is delayed or reduced, ridership and
fare  revenues  may decline,  which could  impair the MTA's  ability to meet its
operating expenses without additional assistance.

      THE CITY OF NEW YORK.  The fiscal health of the State may also be affected
by the fiscal health of New York City (the "City"),  which  continues to receive
significant  financial  assistance from the State.  State aid contributes to the
City's ability to balance its budget and meet its cash  requirements.  The State
may also be affected by the  ability of the City and  certain  entities  issuing
debt for the benefit of the City to market their securities  successfully in the
public credit markets.

      The City has achieved  balanced  operating  results for each of its fiscal
years  since  1981 as  measured  by the GAAP  standards  in force at that  time.
However, in the early 1970s, the City incurred  substantial  operating deficits,
and its financial  controls,  accounting  practices and disclosure policies were
widely  criticized.  In response to the City's fiscal crisis in 1975,  the State
took action to assist the City in  returning  to fiscal  stability.  Among these
actions, the State established the Municipal Assistance Corporation for The City
of New York ("MAC") to provide  financing  assistance for the City; the New York
State  Financial  Control  Board (the  "Control  Board")  to oversee  the City's
financial  affairs;  and the Office of the State Deputy Comptroller for the City
of New York ("OSDC") to assist the Control  Board in  exercising  its powers and
responsibilities. A "control period" existed from 1975 to 1986, during which the
City was subject to certain statutorily  imposed conditions.  State law requires
the  Control  Board  to  reimpose  a  control  period  upon the  occurrence,  or
"substantial  likelihood and imminence' of the  occurrence,  of certain  events,
including (but not limited to) a City operating budget deficit of more than $100
million or impaired access to the public credit markets.


                                       28
<PAGE>


      The  City  provides  services  usually  undertaken  by  counties,   school
districts  or special  districts  in other  large  urban  areas,  including  the
provision of social services such as day care,  foster care, health care, family
planning,  services  for the elderly and special  employment  services for needy
individuals and families who qualify for such assistance. State law requires the
City to  allocate  a large  portion  of its total  budget to Board of  Education
operations,  and  mandates  that the  City  assume  the  local  share of  public
assistance and Medicaid  costs.  For each of the 1981 through 1999 fiscal years,
the City achieved balanced operating results as reported in accordance with then
applicable  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  ("GAAP").  The City was
required  to close  substantial  budget gaps  between  forecasted  revenues  and
forecasted  expenditures in order to maintain balanced operating results.  There
can be no assurance that the City will continue to maintain a balanced budget as
required by State law  without  additional  tax or other  revenue  increases  or
additional  reductions in City  services or  entitlement  programs,  which could
adversely affect the City's economic base.

      Pursuant to the New York State Financial Emergency Act for The City of New
York (the "Financial Emergency Act" or the "Act"), the City prepares a four year
annual  financial  plan,  which is reviewed and revised on a quarterly basis and
which includes the City's capital,  revenue and expense projections and outlines
proposed gap closing  programs for years with projected  budget gaps. The City's
projections  set forth in the  1999-2003  Financial  Plan are  based on  various
assumptions and contingencies which are uncertain and which may not materialize.
Changes in major  assumptions could  significantly  effect the City's ability to
balance its budget and to meet its annual cash flow and financing  requirements.
Such assumptions and contingencies include the timing and pace of a regional and
local  economic  recovery,  increases in tax revenues,  employment  growth,  the
ability  to  implement  proposed  reductions  in City  personnel  and other cost
reduction  initiatives which may require in certain cases the cooperation of the
City's  municipal  unions,  the  ability of New York City  Health and  Hospitals
Corporation  and the  Board of  Education  to take  actions  to  offset  reduced
revenues, the ability to complete revenue generating transactions,  provision of
State and  federal aid and mandate  relief,  and the impact on City  revenues of
proposals for federal and State welfare  reform.  No assurance can be given that
the  assumptions  used  by the  City in the  1999-2003  Financial  Plan  will be
realized.

      In January of 1999,  the City released the Financial Plan for fiscal years
2000-2003.  It projects  total revenues in FY 2000 of $35.46  billion,  of which
federal  categorical  grants provide $3.9 billion and State  categorical  grants
provide $7.0 billion.  The City's Financial Plan projects that expenditures will
grow to $38.21 billion in FY 2003.  While the Financial  Plan projects  revenues
and  expenditures  for the 2000 fiscal year balanced in accordance with GAAP, it
projects  budget gaps of $1.44  billion,  $1.64 billion and $1.17 billion in the
2001, 2002 and 2003 fiscal years, respectively.

      Although  the City has  maintained  balanced  budgets  in each of its last
nineteen fiscal years and is projected to achieve balanced operating results for
the 2000 fiscal  year,  there can be no assurance  that the gap closing  actions
proposed in the Financial Plan can be successfully  implemented or that the City
will maintain a balanced  budget in future years without  additional  State aid,
revenue  increases or  expenditure  reductions.  Additional  tax  increases  and
reductions in essential City services could adversely affect the City's economic
base.

      The 1999-2003  Financial Plan reflects the goal of boosting local economic
activity by  providing a wide array of tax relief.  To that end,  the  Financial
Plan reflects actual and proposed tax reduction  programs totaling $338 million,
$410  million,  $461 million and $473 million in fiscal years 2000 through 2003,
respectively.

      The City derives its revenues from a variety of local taxes,  user charges
and miscellaneous  revenues,  as well as from Federal and State unrestricted and
categorical  grants.  State  aid as a  percentage  of the  City's  revenues  has
remained   relatively  constant  over  the  period  from  1980  to  1999,  while
unrestricted  Federal aid has been sharply reduced. The City projects that local
revenues will provide  approximately  67.6% of total revenues in FY 2000,  while
federal and State aid, including  unrestricted aid and categorical  grants, will
provide 32.4% in the same year.

      The City since 1981 has fully  satisfied its seasonal  financing  needs in
the public  credit  markets,  repaying all short term  obligations  within their
fiscal year of issuance.  The City issued $500 million of short term obligations
in fiscal year 1999 to finance the City's projected cash flow needs for the 1999
fiscal year.  In previous  years,  the City's short term  obligations  have been
$1.075  billion,  $2.4  billion,  $2.4  billion and $2.2 billion in fiscal years
1998,  1997,  1996 and  1995,  respectively.  The delay in the  adoption  of the
State's budget in certain past fiscal years has required the City to issue short
term notes in amounts exceeding those expected early in such fiscal years.

      The  City  makes   substantial   capital   expenditures   to  reconstruct,
rehabilitate and expand the city's infrastructure and physical assets, including
City mass transit facilities,  sewers, streets, bridges and tunnels, and to make
capital investments that will improve productivity in City operations.  The City
utilizes a three tiered  capital  planning  process  consisting  of the Ten Year
Capital  Strategy,  the Four Year  Capital  Program and the current year Capital
Budget.  The Ten Year Capital  Strategy is a long term planning tool designed to
reflect  fundamental  allocation choices and basic policy  objectives.  The Four
Year Capital Program  translates  mid-range policy goals into specific projects.
The Capital Budget defines specific projects and the timing of their initiation,
design, construction and completion.

      The City is nearing the constitutionally-permissible  limit on its general
obligation  debt.  Under  the  State  constitution,  the City  may not  contract
indebtedness  in an amount  greater than 10 percent of the average full value of
taxable  real estate in the City for the most recent five years.  To provide for
the City's capital program,  State legislation was enacted in 1997 which created
the Transitional  Finance Authority ("TFA"), the debt of which is not subject to
the general debt limit of the City.  During the 2000  legislative  session,  the
State enacted  legislation that increased the borrowing  authority of the TFA by
$4 billion,  to $11.5  billion,  which the City expects will provide  sufficient
financing  capacity to continue  its capital  program  over the next four fiscal
years.  Similarly,  in 1999,  the City created  TSASC,  Inc.,  a  not-for-profit
corporation,  empowered to issue  tax-exempt  debt backed by tobacco  settlement
revenues. TSASC, Inc. is expected to issue approximately $2.8 billion of bonds.

      Without TFA or other legislative  relief, new contractual  commitments for
the City's general obligation financed capital program would have been virtually
brought to a halt during the Financial Plan period  beginning  early in the 1998
fiscal year.

      Future  developments  concerning the City or entities issuing debt for the
benefit of the City,  and public  discussion  of such  developments,  as well as
prevailing  market  conditions and  securities  credit  ratings,  may affect the
ability or cost to sell securities issued by the City or such entities,  and may
also effect the market for their outstanding securities.

      In  addition  to general  obligation  debt,  the City has other  long-term
obligations,  including  capital leases and bond  transactions of public benefit
corporations  that are components of the City or whose debt is guaranteed by the
City.

      The City is the largest municipal debt issuer in the nation,  and has more
than  doubled  its debt  load  since  the end of FY 1988,  in large  measure  to
rehabilitate  its extensive,  aging physical  plant.  The City's  Financial Plan
projects $22.3 billion of long-term borrowings for the period of FY 1999 through
FY 2003 to support  the City's  current  capital  plan.  The City's  Preliminary
Ten-Year  Capital  Strategy  dated  January 1999 has  identified  $48 billion in
additional capital expenditures over the next ten years. Additionally,  a report
of the City  Comptroller  indicates the Preliminary  Ten-Year  Capital  Strategy
significantly   underestimates   the  actual  capital  needs  of  the  City  for
reconstructing and rehabilitating the City's infrastructure and physical assets.

      OTHER  LOCALITIES.   Certain   localities   outside  New  York  City  have
experienced  financial problems and have requested and received additional State
assistance  during the last several State fiscal years.  The potential impact on
the State of any future  requests by  localities  for  additional  oversight  or
financial  assistance is not included in the projections of the State's receipts
and disbursements for the State's 2000-01 fiscal year.

      To help resolve persistent fiscal  difficulties in Nassau County the State
enacted  legislation  creating the Nassau County Interim Finance Authority.  The
Authority is empowered to issue bonds,  backed solely by diverted  Nassau County
sales tax revenues, to achieve short-term budget relief and ensure credit market
access for the County. The Authority may also impose financial plan requirements
on Nassau  County.  The State  has  appropriated  $30  million  in  transitional
assistance  to the County for State  fiscal year  2000-01,  and the Governor has
proposed  providing  up to $75  million in State  assistance  over the next four
State fiscal  years.  Allocation of any such  assistance is contingent  upon the
Authority's approval of Nassau County's financial plan.

      The  State  has  provided  extraordinary  financial  assistance  to select
municipalities,  primarily  cities,  since the 1996-97 fiscal year.  Funding has
essentially  been continued or increased in each subsequent  fiscal year, and in


                                       30
<PAGE>

2000-01 totals $200.4 million. The 2000-01 enacted budget also increased General
Purpose State Aid for local governments by $11 million to $562 million.

      While the distribution of General Purpose State Aid for local  governments
was  originally  based on a statutory  formula,  in recent  years both the total
amount appropriated and the shares appropriated to specific localities have been
determined  by the  Legislature.  A State  commission  established  to study the
distribution and amounts of general purpose local government aid failed to agree
on any recommendations for a new formula.

      Counties,  cities,  towns,  villages,  school districts and fire districts
have engaged in substantial  short-term and long-term  borrowings.  In 1998, the
total indebtedness of all localities in the State, other than New York City, was
approximately $20.3 billion. A small portion (approximately $80 million) of that
indebtedness  represented borrowing to finance budgetary deficits and was issued
pursuant to enabling State  legislation.  State law requires the  Comptroller to
review and make recommendations concerning the budgets of those local government
units  (other  than New York  City)  authorized  by State  law to issue  debt to
finance  deficits during the period that such deficit  financing is outstanding.
Twenty-three  localities had outstanding  indebtedness for deficit  financing at
the close of their fiscal year ending in 1998.

      Like the State,  local  governments  must  respond to changing  political,
economic  and  financial  influences  over which they have little or no control.
Such changes may  adversely  affect the  financial  condition  of certain  local
governments.  For example,  the federal  government may reduce (or in some cases
eliminate)  federal  funding of some local programs  which, in turn, may require
local  governments to fund these  expenditures  from their own resources.  It is
also  possible that the State,  New York City,  Nassau  County,  or any of their
respective  public  authorities may suffer serious  financial  difficulties that
could jeopardize local access to the public credit markets,  which may adversely
affect the  marketability  of notes and bonds  issued by  localities  within the
State.  Localities may also face  unanticipated  problems resulting from certain
pending  litigation,  judicial decisions and long-range  economic trends.  Other
large-scale potential problems, such as declining urban populations,  increasing
expenditures,  and the loss of skilled  manufacturing  jobs,  may also adversely
affect localities and necessitate State assistance.

      OTHER  ISSUERS OF NEW YORK  MUNICIPAL  OBLIGATIONS.  There are a number of
State agencies,  instrumentalities and political  subdivisions of the State that
issue Municipal  Obligations,  some of which may be conduit revenue  obligations
payable from  payments  from private  borrowers.  These  entities are subject to
various  economic  risks  and  uncertainties,  and  the  credit  quality  of the
securities  issued by them may vary  considerably  from the  credit  quality  of
obligations  backed by the full faith and credit of the State. For example,  the
repayment  of  securities  secured by real  property may be affected by New York
laws with respect to foreclosure  rights of creditors.  Securities backed by the
revenues  of a  particular  multi-family  rental  project or other  project  are
subject to the feasibility of such project. Securities backed by health care and
hospital  revenues  may be affected  by changes in  regulations  governing  cost
reimbursements  to health care  providers  under the federal and State laws, the
expansion  of  the  role  of  managed  care   companies,   and  competition  and
consolidation occurring in the health care industry.

INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS

      FUNDAMENTAL  LIMITATIONS.  The following investment  limitations cannot be
changed with respect to a fund without the affirmative vote of the lesser of (1)
more  than 50% of the  outstanding  shares of the fund or (2) 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  following  limitations.  With  regard to the  borrowings  limitation  in
fundamental   limitation   (2),  each  fund  will  comply  with  the  applicable
restrictions of Section 18 of the Investment Company Act.

      Each fund will not:

      (1)   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


                                       31
<PAGE>


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  interpretations  apply  to,  but are not a part  of,  this
fundamental  limitation:  With  respect to this  limitation,  (a)  domestic  and
foreign  banking  will  be  considered  to  be  different  industries:  and  (b)
asset-backed   securities  will  be  grouped  in  industries  based  upon  their
underlying assets and not treated as constituting a single, separate industry.

      (2)   issue  senior securities or borrow money,  except as permitted under
the Investment Company 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.

      (3)   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.

      The  following  interpretation  applies  to,  but is not a part  of,  this
fundamental  restriction:  The fund's  investments  in master  notes and similar
instruments will not be considered to be the making of a loan.

      (4)   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.

      (5)   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.

      (6)   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.

      Money Market Portfolio,  U.S. Government  Portfolio and Tax-Free Fund will
not:

      (7)   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.

      With respect to Money Market Portfolio and U.S. Government Portfolio,  the
following  interpretation  applies  to,  but  is  not  a  part  of,  fundamental
limitation (7): Mortgage- and asset-backed  securities 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.

      With respect to Tax-Free  Fund, the following  interpretation  applies to,
but is not a part of,  fundamental  limitation  (7):  Each state,  territory and
possession of the United States  (including  the District of Columbia and Puerto
Rico),  each  political  subdivision,   agency,  instrumentality  and  authority
thereof,  and each multi-state agency of which a state is a member is a separate
"issuer." When the assets and revenues of an agency, authority,  instrumentality
or other  political  subdivision  are separate from the government  creating the
subdivision  and the  security is backed only by the assets and  revenues of the
subdivision,  such subdivision would be deemed to be the sole issuer. Similarly,


                                       32
<PAGE>


in the case of an IDB or PAB,  if that bond is  backed  only by the  assets  and
revenues of the non-governmental  user, then that non-governmental user would be
deemed to be the sole issuer.  However,  if the creating  government  or another
entity  guarantees  a  security,  then  to the  extent  that  the  value  of all
securities  issued or guaranteed  by that  government or entity and owned by the
fund exceeds 10% of the fund's total assets, the guarantee would be considered a
separate security and would be treated as issued by that government or entity.

      California  Municipal Money Fund's investment policy of investing at least
80% of its net  assets  in  California  municipal  securities  and  the  similar
investment  policy of New York  Municipal  Money Fund relating to investments in
New  York  municipal  securities  may not be  changed  without  approval  of the
appropriate  fund's  shareholders.  New Jersey Municipal Money Fund's investment
policy of  investing  at least 65% of its total  assets in New Jersey  municipal
securities may not be changed without approval of its shareholders.

      NON-FUNDAMENTAL LIMITATIONS. The following investment restrictions are not
fundamental and may be changed by each board without shareholder  approval. 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 following limitations.

      Each fund will 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)   purchase  securities of other  investment  companies,  except to the
extent  permitted by the Investment  Company 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, consolidation, or merger.

      (4)   purchase  portfolio  securities  while borrowings in excess of 5% of
its total assets are outstanding.

      (5)   invest more than 10% of its net assets in illiquid securities.

with the  performance  of the  Contracts,  except a loss  resulting from willful
misfeasance,  bad  faith  or gross  negligence  on the  part of  PaineWebber  or
Mitchell Hutchins in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard of
its duties and obligations thereunder.

      The Contracts are terminable with respect to each fund at any time without
penalty by vote of the applicable  board or by vote of the holders of a majority
of the outstanding  voting securities of that fund on 60 days' written notice to
PaineWebber or Mitchell Hutchins,  as the case may be. The PaineWebber Contracts

the appropriate  Corporation or Trust, and the Mitchell  Hutchins  Contracts are
terminable  without  penalty by  PaineWebber  or  Mitchell  Hutchins on 60 days'
written notice to the other party. The Contracts  terminate  automatically  upon
their   assignment,   and  each  Mitchell   Hutchins  Contract  also  terminates
automatically upon the assignment of the applicable PaineWebber Contract.

Tax-Free  Fund,  Managed  Municipal  Trust and  Municipal  Money  Market  Series
("Mitchell  Hutchins  Contracts"),  Mitchell  Hutchins  serves  as  each  fund's

      SECURITIES LENDING.  During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2000, 1999 and
1998,  funds  paid (or  accrued)  no fees to  PaineWebber  for its  services  as
securities  lending  agent  because  the Funds did not engage in any  securities
lending activities.

      TRANSFER-AGENCY  RELATED  SERVICES.  PaineWebber  provides transfer agency
related  services to each fund pursuant to a delegation of authority  from PFPC,
Inc. ("PFPC") and is compensated for these services by PFPC not the funds. Prior
to  August 1,  1997,  PaineWebber  provided  certain  services  to each Fund not

      DISTRIBUTION  ARRANGEMENTS.  PaineWebber  acts as distributor of shares of
the funds under separate  distribution  contracts with each Corporation or Trust
("Distribution  Contracts")  which require  PaineWebber to use its best efforts,
consistent with its other business,  to sell shares of the funds.  Shares of the
funds are  offered  continuously.  PaineWebber  is located at 1285 Avenue of the
Americas, New York, New York 10019-6028. Payments by each fund (other than Money
Market  Portfolio) to compensate  PaineWebber for certain  expenses  incurred in
connection  with its  activities in providing  certain  shareholder  and account
maintenance services are authorized under the Distribution Contracts and made in
accordance  with  related  plans  of  distribution  ("Plans")  adopted  by  each
Corporation  or Trust with  respect to those funds in the manner  prescribed  by
Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. No such payments have been  authorized  for Money
Market Portfolio.

      Under plans of distribution adopted in the manner prescribed by Rule 12b-1
under the  Investment  Company Act ("Plan"),  each fund (other than Money Market
Portfolio) pays  PaineWebber a service fee,  computed daily and payable monthly.
Under its Plan, New Jersey Municipal Money Fund pays service fees to PaineWebber
at the annual  rate of 0.12% of its average  daily net  assets.  Each other fund
currently  pays service fees to  PaineWebber at the annual rate of 0.125% of its
average daily net assets, although its Plan authorizes it to pay service fees to
PaineWebber  at an annual  rate of up to 0.15%.  Any  increase  from the  0.125%
annual rate would require prior approval of the applicable board.

      PaineWebber  uses the  12b-1  service  fees to pay  PaineWebber  Financial
Advisors and correspondent firms for shareholder servicing. The fee is also used
to offset PaineWebber's other expenses in servicing and maintaining  shareholder
accounts.  These expenses may include the costs of the PaineWebber branch office
in which the Financial Advisor is based, such as rent, communications equipment,
employee salaries and other overhead costs.

      Among other things, each Plan provides that (1) PaineWebber will submit to
the  board at least  quarterly,  and the  board  members  will  review,  reports
regarding  all amounts  expended  under the Plan and the purposes for which such
expenditures  were made, (2) the Plan will continue in effect only so long as it
is approved at least annually,  and any material  amendment thereto is approved,
by the board,  including those board members who are not "interested persons" of
the Corporation or Trust and who have no direct or indirect  financial  interest
in the  operation of the Plan or any  agreement  related to the Plan,  acting in
person at a meeting  called for that  purpose,  (3) payments by a Fund under the
Plan shall not be  materially  increased  without  the  affirmative  vote of the
holders of a majority of the affected  Fund's  outstanding  shares and (4) while
the Plan remains in effect,  the selection  and  nomination of board members who
are not  "interested  persons" of the Corporation or Trust shall be committed to
the  discretion  of the board  members who are not  "interested  persons" of the
Corporation or Trust.

      The funds paid (or accrued)  the  following  service  fees to  PaineWebber
under the Plans during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000:

       U.S. Government Portfolio.......................       $  1,942,079

      "Allocated  costs" include various internal costs allocated by PaineWebber
to  its  efforts  at  providing  certain  shareholder  and  account  maintenance
services.  These  internal  costs  encompass  office  rent,  salaries  and other
overhead expenses of various PaineWebber departments and areas of operations.

      In approving the continuance of the Plan for a fund, the applicable  board
considered all features of the distribution  system for the fund,  including (1)
PaineWebber's  view that the payment of service fees at the annual rate of 0.02%
of the  average  daily  net  assets  of the fund  held in  shareholder  accounts
serviced  by  PaineWebber   Financial  Advisors  and  correspondent   firms  was
attractive to such Financial  Advisors and correspondent  firms and would result
in greater  growth of the fund than might  otherwise be the case, (2) the extent
to which fund shareholders  might benefit from economies of scale resulting from
growth in the fund's assets and  shareholder  account size and the potential for
continued growth,  (3) the services provided to the fund and its shareholders by
PaineWebber pursuant to the applicable  Distribution Contract, (4) PaineWebber's
expenses and costs under the Plan as  described  above and (5) the fact that the
expense  of  the  Plan  to  funds  with   breakpoints   in  their  advisory  and
administration  fees could be offset if the Plan is  successful by the lower fee
rates that may be triggered as assets reach higher levels.

      With respect to each Plan,  the applicable  board  considered the benefits
that  would  accrue  to  PaineWebber  under the Plan in that  PaineWebber  would
receive service and advisory fees that are calculated based upon a percentage of
the  average  net assets of the fund,  which fees would  increase if the Plan is
successful and the fund attains and maintains increased asset levels.

                             PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

      The funds purchase  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.  During its past three fiscal  years,  no fund has paid any
brokerage commissions;  therefore, none has allocated any brokerage transactions
for research, analysis, advice and similar services.

      For  purchases or sales with  broker-dealer  firms that act as  principal,
Mitchell  Hutchins seeks best execution.  Although Mitchell Hutchins may receive
certain research or execution services in connection with these transactions, it
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.  Mitchell  Hutchins  may  engage  in agency
transactions in over-the-counter securities in return for research and execution
services.  These  transactions are entered into only pursuant to procedures that
are designed to ensure 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.

      Research  services and  information  received  from brokers or dealers are
supplemental to Mitchell Hutchins' own research efforts and, when utilized,  are
subject to internal  analysis  before  being  incorporated  into its  investment
processes.  Information  and research  services  furnished by brokers or dealers
through which or with which the funds effect securities transactions may be used
by  Mitchell  Hutchins in advising  other  funds or  accounts  and,  conversely,
research  services  furnished  to  Mitchell  Hutchins  by  brokers or dealers in
connection with other funds or accounts that its advises may be used in advising
the funds.

      During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998, the funds paid
no brokerage commissions.  Therefore, the funds have not allocated any brokerage
transactions for research, analysis, advice and similar services.

      Investment  decisions for a 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 a fund and one or more accounts.  In those cases,
simultaneous  transactions are inevitable.  Purchases or sales are then averaged
as to price and  allocated  between  that fund and the  other  account(s)  as to
amount in a manner deemed equitable to the fund and the other account(s).  While
in some cases this practice  could have a  detrimental  effect upon the price or
value of the  security  as far as a fund is  concerned,  or upon its  ability to
complete  its entire  order,  in other  cases it is believed  that  simultaneous
transactions and the ability to participate in volume  transactions will benefit
the fund.

other  short-term  obligations  issued by the following  persons who are regular

                 ADDITIONAL PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION INFORMATION

      ADDITIONAL PURCHASE INFORMATION. Each fund may, subject to approval by its
board,  accept  securities  in  which  the  fund  is  authorized  to  invest  as
consideration  for the  issuance of its shares,  provided  that the value of the
securities  is at least equal to the net asset value of the fund's shares at the
time the transaction  occurs. A fund may accept or reject any such securities in
its discretion.

      Each  fund may  suspend  redemption  privileges  or  postpone  the date of
payment  during any period  (1) when the New York  Stock  Exchange  is closed or
trading on the New York Stock  Exchange is  restricted as determined by the SEC,
(2)  when an  emergency  exists,  as  defined  by the  SEC,  that  makes  it not
reasonably  practicable  for a 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 each
fund attempts to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share.

      If  conditions  exist  that make  cash  payments  undesirable,  California
Municipal Money Fund and New York Municipal Money Fund each reserve the right to
honor  any  request  for  redemption  by making  payment  in whole or in part in
securities chosen by the fund and valued in the same way as they would be valued
for  purposes of  computing  the fund's net asset  value.  If payment is made in
securities,  a shareholder  may incur  brokerage  expenses in  converting  these
securities  into cash.  Managed  Municipal  Trust has  elected,  however,  to be
governed by Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act, under which it is obligated to redeem
shares  solely in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net asset value
of a fund  during  any 90-day  period  for one  shareholder.  This  election  is
irrevocable unless the SEC permits its withdrawal.

      Under normal circumstances, a 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

      Each fund uses its best  efforts to maintain  its net asset value at $1.00
per share.  Each fund's net asset value per share is  determined by State Street
Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") as of 12:00 noon,  Eastern time, on each
Business  Day.  As defined in the  Prospectus,  "Business  Day" means any day on
which State Street's Boston 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,  Patriot's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day,
Veterans' Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.

      Each fund values its portfolio securities in accordance with the amortized
cost method of  valuation  under Rule 2a-7  ("Rule")  under the 1940 Act. To use
amortized cost to value its portfolio securities,  a fund must adhere to certain
conditions under the Rule relating to the fund's investments,  some of which are
discussed in the Prospectus and this SAI.  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.  If a large number
of redemptions  take place at a time when interest rates have increased,  a fund
might have to sell  portfolio  securities  prior to maturity and at a price that
might not be desirable.

      Each board has established  procedures  ("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. If that
deviation  exceeds  1/2 of 1% for any fund,  its board  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.  Each fund will maintain a  dollar-weighted
average portfolio maturity of 90 days or less and except as otherwise  indicated
herein will not purchase any instrument  having,  or deemed to have, a remaining
maturity  of more than 397 days,  will limit  portfolio  investments,  including


                                       47
<PAGE>

repurchase agreements,  to those U.S. dollar denominated instruments that are of
high quality and that  Mitchell  Hutchins,  acting  pursuant to the  Procedures,
determines  present minimal credit risks and will comply with certain  reporting
and  recordkeeping  procedures.  There is no assurance  that  constant net asset
value per share will be  maintained.  If amortized cost ceases to represent fair
value, the relevant board will take appropriate action.

      In determining the approximate market value of portfolio investments, each
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. Other assets,  if any, are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by or under the direction of the applicable board.

                             PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

      The funds'  performance  data quoted in advertising and other  promotional
materials ("Performance  Advertisements") represent past performance and are not
intended to indicate future performance. The investment return will fluctuate.

      TOTAL  RETURN   CALCULATIONS.   Average   annual   total   return   quotes
("Standardized  Return")  used in each  fund's  Performance  Advertisements  are
calculated according to the following formula:

       P(1 + T)n  =  ERV
     where:    P  =  a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000 to purchase shares
               T  =  average annual total return of shares
               n  =  number of years
             ERV  =  ending redeemable value of a hypothetical $1,000 payment at
                     the beginning of that period.

      Under  the  foregoing  formula,  the  time  periods  used  in  Performance
Advertisements will be based on rolling calendar quarters.  Total return, or "T"
in the formula  above,  is computed by finding the average  annual change in the
value of an initial $1,000 investment over the period. All dividends are assumed
to have been reinvested at net asset value.

      The funds may also advertise other  performance data, which may consist of
the annual or  cumulative  return  (including  short-term  capital gain, if any)
earned on a hypothetical investment in the fund since it began operations or for
shorter  periods.  This  return  data  may or may  not  assume  reinvestment  of
dividends (compounding).

      The following  tables show  performance  information for the funds' shares
outstanding for the periods indicated.  All returns for periods of more than one
year are expressed as an average annual return.

      YIELD.  Each fund computes its 7-day current yield and its 7-day effective
yield quotations using standardized  methods required by the SEC. Each 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 (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:

              EFFECTIVE YIELD = [(BASE PERIOD RETURN + 1)365/7] - 1

      Each  municipal  money market fund from time to time also  advertises  its
tax-equivalent  yield  and  tax-equivalent  effective  yield,  also  based  on a
recently ended  seven-day  period.  These  quotations are calculated by dividing
that portion of the fund's yield (or effective  yield,  as the case may be) that
is tax-exempt by 1 minus a stated income tax rate and adding the product to that
portion,  if any, of the fund's yield that is not  tax-exempt,  according to the
following formula:

      TAX EQUIVALENT YIELD = (E/1-P) + t

      E   =   tax-exempt yield of a class of shares

      p   =   stated income tax rate

      t    =  taxable yield of a Class of shares

      Yield may  fluctuate  daily and does not  provide a basis for  determining
future yields. Because the yield of each 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 funds may also  advertise  non-standardized  yields  calculated in a
manner  similar to that described  above,  but for different time periods (E.G.,
one-day yield, 30-day yield).

      The following yields are for the seven-day period ended June 30, 2000:

      OTHER  INFORMATION.  The funds' 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  each  fund  will   fluctuate.   In   Performance
Advertisements,  the funds may compare their  standardized  or  non-standardized
return and taxable or tax-free  yields 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  the  Standard  & Poor's  500
Composite Stock Price Index, the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Merrill Lynch
Municipal  Bond Indices,  the Morgan  Stanley  Capital  World Index,  the Lehman
Brothers  Treasury Bond Index,  the Lehman  Brothers  Government-Corporate  Bond
Index,  the Salomon Smith Barney  Government  Bond Index and the Consumer  Price
Index as published by the U.S. Department of Commerce.  The Funds 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 Funds and comparative  mutual fund data and ratings  reported
in independent  periodicals,  including 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.

      Each 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 a fund investment would
increase more quickly than if dividends had been paid in cash.

      Each fund may also compare its performance  with the  performances of bank
certificates  of deposit  ("CDs") as measured by the CDA  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 a 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  rates of interest  and that bank CD yields may
vary  depending on the  financial  institution  offering  the CD and  prevailing
interest rates.  Advertisements and other promotional materials for the funds or
for the PaineWebber Resource Management Account(R) ("RMA") and Business Services
Accountsm  ("BSA")  programs may compare features of the RMA and BSA programs to
those offered by bank checking  accounts and other bank accounts.  Bank accounts
are  insured  in whole or in part by an  agency of the U.S.  government  and may
offer a fixed rate of return.  Fund shares are not insured or  guaranteed by the
U.S.  government,  and returns thereon will fluctuate.  While each 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.

                                      TAXES

      QUALIFICATION AS A REGULATED  INVESTMENT  COMPANY.  To continue to qualify
for  treatment  as a regulated  investment  company  ("RIC")  under the Internal
Revenue Code,  each fund must  distribute to its  shareholders  for each taxable
year at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (consisting generally
of taxable net investment income and net short-term  capital gain, if any) plus,
in the  case of each  municipal  money  market  fund,  its net  interest  income
excludable from gross income under section 103(a) of the Internal  Revenue Code,
and must meet several additional requirements. For each fund, these requirements
include 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) 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 (3) 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. If a fund failed to qualify for treatment as a RIC for any taxable year,
(1) it would  be taxed as an  ordinary  corporation  on the full  amount  of its
taxable income for that year without being able to deduct the  distributions  it
makes  to its  shareholders  and (2) its  shareholders  would  treat  all  those
distributions,  including distributions that otherwise would be "exempt-interest
dividends" described in the following paragraph, as dividends (that is, ordinary
income) to the extent of the fund's earnings and profits. In addition,  the fund
could be required to  recognize  unrealized  gains,  pay  substantial  taxes and
interest  and  make  substantial   distributions  before  requalifying  for  RIC
treatment.

      Dividends  paid  by  a  municipal   money  market  fund  will  qualify  as
"exempt-interest  dividends,"  and thus will be excludable  from gross income by
its shareholders,  if it satisfies the additional requirement that, at the close
of each  quarter  of its  taxable  year,  at least 50% of the value of its total
assets  consists of securities  the interest on which is  excludable  from gross
income  under  section  103(a).  Each  municipal  money  market fund  intends to
continue to satisfy this requirement.  The aggregate amount annually  designated
by a municipal money market fund as exempt-interest dividends may not exceed its
interest  for the year that is  excludable  under  section  103(a) over  certain
amounts disallowed as deductions.  The shareholders' treatment of dividends from
the  municipal  money  market  funds under  state and local  income tax laws may
differ from the treatment thereof under the Internal Revenue Code.

      Tax-exempt interest  attributable to certain PABs (including,  in the case
of  a  municipal  money  market  fund  receiving  interest  on  those  bonds,  a
proportionate  part of the  exempt-interest  dividends  paid by that fund) is an
item of tax  preference  for  purposes  of the federal  alternative  minimum tax
("AMT").  Exempt-interest dividends received by a corporate shareholder also may
be  indirectly  subject to the AMT without  regard to whether a municipal  money
market fund's  tax-exempt  interest was  attributable  to those bonds.  PABs are
issued by or on  behalf  of public  authorities  to  finance  various  privately
operated facilities and are described in the Prospectus.

      Entities or persons  who are  "substantial  users" (or persons  related to
"substantial users") of facilities financed by IDBs or PABs should consult their
tax advisers before  purchasing shares of a municipal money market fund because,
for users of certain of these  facilities,  the  interest  on those bonds is not
exempt from federal income tax. For these purposes,  the term "substantial user"
is defined  generally to include a  "non-exempt  person" who  regularly  uses in
trade or  business a part of a facility  financed  from the  proceeds of IDBs or
PABs.

      Up to 85% of social  security  and  railroad  retirement  benefits  may be
included in taxable income for recipients whose adjusted gross income (including
income from  tax-exempt  sources such as a municipal money market fund) plus 50%
of their benefits exceeds certain base amounts.  Exempt-interest  dividends from
the municipal  money market funds still are  tax-exempt to the extent  described
above  and in the  Prospectus;  they are only  included  in the  calculation  of
whether a recipient's income exceeds the established amounts.

      If a municipal money market fund invests in any instruments  that generate
taxable income,  under the circumstances  described in the Prospectus and in the
discussion of municipal  market  discount  bonds below,  the portion of any fund
dividend  attributable  to the  interest  earned  thereon will be taxable to its
shareholders  as ordinary  income to the extent of its  earnings and profits and


                                       51
<PAGE>


only the  remaining  portion will qualify as an  exempt-interest  dividend.  The
respective  portions  will be determined by the "actual  earned"  method,  under
which the portion of any dividend that qualifies as an exempt-interest  dividend
may vary,  depending  on the  relative  proportions  of  tax-exempt  and taxable
interest  earned  during the dividend  period.  Moreover,  if a municipal  money
market  fund  realizes  capital  gain as a result  of market  transactions,  any
distribution of that gain will be taxable to its shareholders.

      Each  municipal  money market fund may invest in municipal  bonds that are
purchased, generally not on their original issue, with market discount (that is,
at a price less than the principal  amount of the bond or, in the case of a bond
that was issued with original  issue  discount,  a price less than the amount of
the issue  price  plus  accrued  original  issue  discount)  ("municipal  market
discount  bonds").  If a bond's market  discount is less than the product of (1)
0.25% of the redemption price at maturity times (2) the number of complete years
to maturity  after the taxpayer  acquired the bond,  then no market  discount is
considered to exist. Gain on the disposition of a municipal market discount bond
(other than a bond with a fixed maturity date within one year from its issuance)
generally is treated as ordinary (taxable) income,  rather than capital gain, to
the extent of the bond's  accrued  market  discount at the time of  disposition.
Market discount on such a bond generally is accrued  ratably,  on a daily basis,
over the period from the  acquisition  date to the date of maturity.  In lieu of
treating the disposition  gain as above, a municipal money market fund may elect
to include market discount in its gross income currently,  for each taxable year
to which it is attributable.

      Dividends  from  investment  company  taxable income paid to a shareholder
who, as to the United States,  is a nonresident  alien  individual,  nonresident
alien fiduciary of a trust or estate, foreign corporation or foreign partnership
("foreign  shareholder")  generally are subject to a 30% withholding tax, unless
the applicable tax rate is reduced by a treaty between the United States and the
shareholder's  country of  residence.  Withholding  does not apply to a dividend
paid  to  a  foreign  shareholder  that  is  "effectively   connected  with  the
[shareholder's]  conduct of a trade or  business  within the United  States," in
which case the withholding  requirements applicable to domestic taxpayers apply.
Exempt-interest  dividends  paid by the  municipal  money  market  funds are not
subject to withholding.

      Each fund will be subject to a  nondeductible  4% excise tax to the extent
it fails to  distribute by the end of any calendar  year  substantially  all its
ordinary  (I.E.,  taxable)  income for that year and any capital gain net income
for the one-year  period  ending  October 31 of that year,  plus  certain  other
amounts.

      The  foregoing  is a  general,  abbreviated  summary  of  certain  of  the
provisions of the federal tax laws  presently in effect as they directly  govern
the  taxation  of  shareholders  of each  municipal  money  market  fund.  These
provisions are subject to change by legislative or  administrative  action,  and
any  such  change  may  be  retroactive  with  respect  to  fund   transactions.
Shareholders  are  advised  to  consult  with  their own tax  advisers  for more
detailed information concerning fededal tax matters.

      CALIFORNIA  TAXES.  In any year in which  California  Municipal Money Fund
qualifies as a RIC under the Internal Revenue Code and 50% or more of its assets
at the close of each quarter of its taxable year are invested in obligations the
interest  on which is  exempt  from  personal  income  taxation  by the State of
California,   the  fund  will  be  qualified   under   California   law  to  pay
"exempt-interest"  dividends  which will be exempt from the California  personal
income tax.

      Individual  shareholders of California  Municipal Money Fund who reside in
California   will  not  be  subject  to  California   personal   income  tax  on
distributions  received  from  the Fund to the  extent  such  distributions  are
attributable  to  interest  on  tax-exempt  obligations  issued  by the State of
California or a California  local  government (or interest  earned on tax-exempt
obligations  of  U.S.  possessions  or  territories),  provided  that  the  fund
satisfies the  requirement  of California law that at least 50% of its assets at
the close of each  quarter of its taxable  year be invested in  obligations  the
interest  on which is  exempt  from  personal  income  taxation  by the State of
California.  Income distributions from the fund that are attributable to sources
other than those  described in the preceding  sentence will generally be taxable
to such shareholders as ordinary income.  However,  distributions from the fund,
if any, that are derived from interest on obligations of the U.S. government may
also be  designated by the fund and treated by its  shareholders  as exempt from
California  personal income tax,  provided that the foregoing 50% requirement is
satisfied.   In  addition,   distributions  to  such  shareholders   other  than
exempt-interest dividends will be includable in income subject to the California
alternative minimum tax.


                                       52

      Shareholders  of  California  Municipal  Money Fund who are subject to the
California corporate franchise tax will be required to include  distributions of
investment income and capital gains in their taxable income for purposes of that
tax. In addition,  such distributions may be includable in income subject to the
alternative minimum tax.

      Shares of  California  Municipal  Money  Fund will not be  subject  to the
California property tax.

      The  foregoing  is a  general,  abbreviated  summary  of  certain  of  the
provisions  of the tax laws of the State of  California  presently  in effect as
they directly govern the taxation of shareholders of California  Municipal Money
Fund.  These  provisions are subject to change by legislative or  administrative
action,   and  any  such  change  may  be  retroactive   with  respect  to  fund
transactions.  Shareholders  are advised to consult  with their own tax advisers
for more detailed information concerning California tax matters.

      NEW  JERSEY  TAXES.  New Jersey  Municipal  Money  Fund  anticipates  that
substantially  all  dividends  paid by it will not be  subject to the New Jersey
gross  income  tax.  In  accordance  with the  provisions  of New  Jersey law as
currently in effect,  distributions  paid by a "qualified  investment fund" will
not  be  subject  to  the  New  Jersey  gross  income  tax  to  the  extent  the
distributions  are  attributable to income received as interest or gain from New
Jersey  Municipal  Securities or direct U.S.  government  obligations or certain
other specified obligations. To be classified as a qualified investment fund, at
least  80%  of  the  fund's   investments  must  consist  of  such  obligations.
Distributions by a qualified investment fund that are attributable to most other
sources  will be  subject  to the New  Jersey  gross  income  tax.  If the  fund
continues to qualify as a qualified  investment fund, any gain on the redemption
of its shares  will not be subject to the New Jersey  gross  income  tax. To the
extent  a  shareholder  of the fund is  obligated  to pay  state or local  taxes
outside  of New  Jersey,  dividends  earned by such  shareholder  may  represent
taxable income.

      The shares of New Jersey  Municipal Money Fund are not subject to property
taxation by New Jersey or its political subdivisions.

      The  foregoing  is a  general,  abbreviated  summary  of  certain  of  the
applicable  provisions  of  New  Jersey  tax  law  presently  in  effect.  These
provisions  are subject to change by  legislative,  judicial  or  administrative
action and any such change may be either prospective or retroactive with respect
to Fund  transactions.  Shareholders  are urged to  consult  with  their own tax
advisers for more detailed information concerning New Jersey State tax matters.

      NEW YORK TAXES.  Individual  shareholders of New York Municipal Money Fund
will not be  required  to include in their  gross  income for New York State and
City  purposes any portion of  distributions  received  from New York  Municipal
Money  Fund to the  extent  such  distributions  are  directly  attributable  to
interest  earned  on  tax-exempt  obligations  issued  by New York  State or any
political  subdivisions  thereof (including New York City) or interest earned on
obligations of U.S.  possessions  or territories to the extent  interest on such
obligations is exempt from state taxation pursuant to federal law, provided that
New York Municipal Money Fund qualifies as a RIC under the Internal Revenue Code
and  satisfies  certain  requirements,  among  others,  that at least 50% of its
assets at the close of each quarter of its taxable year  constitute  obligations
which are  tax-exempt for federal  income tax purposes.  Distributions  from New
York  Municipal  Money Fund which are  attributable  to sources other than those
described in the preceding sentence  (including interest on obligations of other
states  and their  political  subdivisions)  will  generally  be taxable to such
individual shareholders as ordinary income.

      Shareholders  of New York Municipal Money Fund that are subject to the New
York State corporate  franchise tax or the New York City general corporation tax
will be required to include exempt-interest dividends paid by New York Municipal
Money Fund in their  "entire net income" for  purposes of such taxes and will be
required  to  include  their  shares of New York  Municipal  Money Fund in their
investment capital for purposes of such taxes.

      Shareholders  of New York Municipal  Money Fund will not be subject to the
unincorporated  business  taxation  imposed by New York City solely by reason of
their  ownership of shares in New York Municipal Money Fund. If a shareholder is
subject to the unincorporated  business tax, income and gains distributed by New
York Municipal Money Fund will be subject to such tax except, in general, to the
extent such  distributions  are  directly  attributable  to  interest  earned on
tax-exempt  obligations  issued by New York State or any  political  subdivision
thereof (including New York City).

      Shares of New York  Municipal  Money Fund will not be subject to  property
taxes imposed by New York State or City.

      Interest on  indebtedness  incurred by  shareholders  to purchase or carry
shares of New York  Municipal  Money Fund (and certain other  expenses  relating
thereto)  generally  will not be deductible  for New York State or City personal
income tax purposes.

      Interest  income of New York Municipal  Money Fund which is distributed to
shareholders  will generally not be taxable to New York Municipal Money Fund for
purposes  of  the  New  York  State  corporate  franchise  tax or  City  general
corporation tax.

      New York  Municipal  Money  Fund is  subject  to the  corporate  franchise
(income) tax measured by the entire net income base, the minimum  taxable income
base or the fixed dollar minimum,  whichever is greater.  "Entire net income" of
New York Municipal  Money Fund is federal  "investment  company  taxable income"
with certain modifications.

      The foregoing is a general summary of certain provisions of New York State
and City tax laws  currently in effect as they  directly  govern the taxation of
shareholders of New York Municipal  Money Fund.  Further,  these  provisions are
subject to change by legislative or administrative  action,  and any such change
may be retroactive with respect to New York Municipal Money Fund's transactions.
Shareholders  are  advised  to  consult  with  their own tax  advisers  for more
detailed information concerning tax matters.

*     The  yields  listed  are for  illustration  only  and are not  necessarily

      tax  bracket.  The  figures  set forth  above do not  reflect  the federal
      alternative  minimum  tax,   limitations  on  federal  or  state  itemized
      deductions and personal  exemptions or any state or local taxes payable on
      fund distributions (other than California personal income taxes).

+     The rates shown  reflect  California  rates for 1999.  Inflation  adjusted
      income  brackets for 2000 for  California are not available as of the date
      of this SAI,  and the  California  rates thus are still  subject to change
      with retroactive effect for 2000.

      TAX-FREE INCOME VS. TAXABLE INCOME--NEW JERSEY MUNICIPAL MONEY FUND. Table
III below illustrates  approximate equivalent taxable and tax-free yields at the
federal  individual  and New Jersey gross income tax rates in effect on the date
of this SAI. For example,  a New Jersey couple with taxable income of $90,000 in
2000, or a single New Jersey  individual with taxable income of $55,000 in 2000,
whose  investments earn a 3% tax-free yield,  would have to earn a 4.41% taxable
yield to receive the same benefit.

                                OTHER INFORMATION

      MASSACHUSETTS  BUSINESS  TRUSTS.  Each  Trust  is an  entity  of the  type
commonly known as a  "Massachusetts  business trust." Under  Massachusetts  law,
shareholders could, under certain  circumstances,  be held personally liable for
the  obligations  of a Trust.  However,  each  Declaration  of  Trust  disclaims
shareholder  liability  for acts or  obligations  of the Trust and requires that
notice of such  disclaimer be given in each note,  bond,  contract,  instrument,
certificate or undertaking  made or issued by the trustees or by any officers or
officer by or on behalf of that Trust,  a Fund,  the  trustees or any of them in
connection   with  the  Trust.   Each   Declaration   of  Trust   provides   for
indemnification  from a fund's  property  for all  losses  and  expenses  of any
shareholder  held personally  liable for the obligations of the fund.  Thus, the
risk of a  shareholder's  incurring  financial  loss on account  of  shareholder
liability is limited to  circumstances in which a fund itself would be unable to


                                       57
<PAGE>


meet its obligations, a possibility which PaineWebber believes is remote and not
material.  Upon  payment  of  any  liability  incurred  by  a  shareholder,  the
shareholder  paying such  liability will be entitled to  reimbursement  from the
general  assets of the fund.  The trustees  intend to conduct the  operations of
each fund in such a way as to avoid, as far as possible,  ultimate  liability of
the shareholders for liabilities of the fund.

      VOTING RIGHTS. Shareholders of each fund are entitled to one vote for each
full share held and fractional votes for fractional  shares held.  Voting rights
are not  cumulative  and,  as a result,  the holders of more than 50% of all the
shares of a Corporation or a Trust may elect all its board  members.  The shares
of each series of  PaineWebber  RMA Money Fund,  Inc.  and  PaineWebber  Managed
Municipal Trust will be voted  separately,  except when an aggregate vote of all
the series is required by law.

      The Corporations  and Trusts do not hold annual  meetings.  There normally
will be no meetings of  shareholders  to elect board members unless fewer than a
majority of the board members holding office have been elected by  shareholders.
Shareholders of record of no less than two-thirds of the outstanding shares of a
Trust may remove a board member  through a declaration in writing or by proxy at
a meeting  called  for that  purpose.  A  meeting  will be called to vote on the
removal of a board member at the written  request of  shareholders  of record of
not less  than 10% of the  outstanding  shares of a Trust or at least 25% of the
outstanding shares of a Corporation.

      CUSTODIAN AND  RECORDKEEPING  AGENT;  TRANSFER AND DIVIDEND  AGENT.  State
Street Bank and Trust  Company,  located at 1776 Heritage  Drive,  North Quincy,
Massachusetts  02171, serves as custodian and recordkeeping agent for each fund.
PFPC,  a  subsidiary  of  PNC  Bank,  N.A.,  located  at 400  Bellevue  Parkway,
Wilmington,  DE 19809,  serves as each fund's  transfer and dividend  disbursing
agent.

      PRIOR NAMES. Prior to February 28, 1996, Municipal Money Market Series was
known as PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Municipal Money Market Series and, prior to
January 30, 1995, was known as Kidder,  Peabody  Municipal  Money Market Series.
Prior to December 15,  1995,  New Jersey  Municipal  Money Fund was known as New
Jersey Series.

      COMBINED  PROSPECTUS.  Although each fund is offering only its own shares,
it is  possible  that a fund  might  become  liable  for a  misstatement  in the
Prospectus about another fund. The board of each fund has considered this factor
in approving the use of a single, combined Prospectus.

      COUNSEL.  The law firm of  Kirkpatrick & Lockhart LLP, 1800  Massachusetts
Avenue,  N.W.,  Washington,   D.C.  20036,  serves  as  counsel  to  the  Funds.
Kirkpatrick  & Lockhart  LLP also acts as counsel to  PaineWebber  and  Mitchell
Hutchins in connection with other matters. The law firm of Orrick,  Herrington &
Sutcliffe LLP, 400 Sansome Street, San Francisco, CA 94111, serves as counsel to
California  Municipal Money Fund with respect to California law. The law firm of
Orrick,  Herrington  &  Sutcliffe  LLP,  666 Fifth  Avenue,  New York,  New York
10103-0001,  serves as counsel to New York Municipal  Money Fund with respect to
New York law and New Jersey Municipal Money Fund with respect to New Jersey law.

      AUDITORS. Ernst & Young LLP, 787 Seventh Avenue, New York, New York 10019,
serves as independent auditors for the funds.


                              FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                   APPENDIX A

        SERVICES AVAILABLE THROUGH THE RMA PROGRAM TO RMA ACCOUNTHOLDERS

      Shares of the Funds are available to investors who are participants in the
Resource  Management  Account(R) (RMA(R)) program offered by PaineWebber and its
correspondent  firms.  The  following  is a  summary  of  some  of the  services
available to RMA participants.  For more complete information,  investors should
refer to separate materials their Financial Advisor can provide them.

      THE PAINEWEBBER RMA PREMIER STATEMENT.  RMA participants receive a monthly
Premier account  statement,  which provides  consolidated  information to assist
with portfolio management decisions and personal financial planning. The Premier
account  statement  summarizes  securities  transactions,  card transactions and
checks (if applicable) and provides cost basis  information and  calculations of
unrealized  and  realized  gains and losses on most  investments.  A "Summary of
Accounts"  statement and a menu of customized  statement options is available to
make the monthly reporting even more comprehensive.

      PRELIMINARY AND YEAR-END SUMMARIES.  RMA participants  receive preliminary
and year-end summary account information statements that provide a comprehensive
overview  of  tax-related  activity  in the  account  during  the  year  to help
investors with tax planning.

      CHOICE OF MONEY MARKET FUNDS AND AUTOMATIC  SWEEP OF  UNINVESTED  CASH. As
described  more fully in the  Prospectus  under the heading  "Managing Your Fund
Account -- Buying  Shares,"  RMA  participants  select a money  market fund as a
primary  fund from a variety  of taxable  and  tax-free  money  funds into which
uninvested  cash is  automatically  swept  on a daily  basis.  By  automatically
investing cash balances into a money market fund,  this sweep feature  minimizes
the extent to which an  investor's  assets remain idle while held in the account
pending investment.

      CHECK WRITING.  RMA  participants  have ready access to the assets held in
their RMA through the check writing feature.  There are no minimum check amounts
or per check  charges.  The RMA checks  include an expense  coding  system  that
enables the investor to track types of expenses for tax and financial planning.

      DIRECT  DEPOSIT.  Regular  payroll,  pension,  social  security  or  other
payments may be eligible for electronic deposit into RMA participants' accounts.

      ELECTRONIC  FUNDS  TRANSFER/BILL  PAYMENT  SERVICE.  RMA  participants can
electronically   transfer   money   between   their  RMA  and  other   financial
institutions,  transfer  funds to and from other  PaineWebber  accounts  and pay
bills. A Bill Payment Service is available for an additional charge.

      PAINEWEBBER  EDGE.  RMA  participants  have free  access to  PaineWebber's
proprietary online services - the PaineWebber EDGE.  Delivered over the Internet
in a secured area of  PaineWebber's  web site,  the  PaineWebber  EDGE  provides
convenient,  around-the-clock  access to vital,  customized  account  and market
information.

      PLATINUM MASTERCARD(R).  RMA Participants receive a complimentary Platinum
MasterCard debit card that makes account assets easily accessible.  The Platinum
MasterCard is accepted by merchants both in the U.S. and abroad, and can be used
to obtain cash  advances at  thousands  of automated  teller  machines  ("ATM").
Through  MasterCard's  enhanced  services  programs,  investors can obtain other
benefits,   including  rental  car  insurance,   emergency  medical  and  travel
assistance, legal services and purchase protection.

      RMA offers the  MasterCard  Special  Services  Concierge  Service  free of
charge to RMA clients.  These services help make travel amenities,  entertaining
and gift giving easier with a call to 1-877-828-5203.

      EXTENDED ACCOUNT  PROTECTION.  The net equity securities balance in an RMA
Account is protected  through private  insurance in the event of the liquidation
of  PaineWebber.  This  protection  is in addition to the $500,000 in protection
provided to accountholders  by the Securities  Investor  Protection  Corporation


                                       59
<PAGE>


("SIPC").  Neither the SIPC  protection  nor the additional  account  protection
insurance  applies  to  shares  of funds  that are  registered  with the  funds'
transfer  agent in the name of the  shareholder,  rather  than being held in the
shareholder's  RMA account and  registered in the name of  PaineWebber or one of
its correspondent firms.

      PAINEWEBBER  REWARDS.  RMA  participants  can choose to participate in the
PaineWebber  Rewards  program for an additional  fee of $50.00.  Rewards  points
accumulate and are  redeemable  for  merchandise,  airline  tickets,  travel and
shopping and dining certificates.

      RESOURCE  ACCUMULATION  PLANSM.  The  Resource  Accumulation  Plan  is  an
automatic mutual fund investment program that provides  participants the ability
to purchase  shares of select  mutual funds on a regular,  periodic  basis.  The
minimum purchase in the program is $100 per investment; however, initial minimum
purchase  requirements  of the  designated  mutual fund(s) must be met before an
investor  can  participate  in this  program.  The  participant  must  receive a
prospectus,  which  contains more complete  information  (including  charges and
expenses),  for each fund  before the  application  form to  participate  in the
Resource Accumulation Plan is submitted.

      PAINEWEBBER SERVICE GROUP AND  RESOURCELINE(R).  RMA participants can call
the PaineWebber  Service Group and speak with a representative  by calling (800)
RMA-1000. ResourceLine, a toll-free interactive voice response telephone system,
provides account information 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

      MARGIN.  RMA  Participants  may choose to have a margin feature as part of
their RMA.

        SERVICES AVAILABLE THROUGH THE BSA PROGRAM FOR BSA ACCOUNTHOLDERS


      Shares of the Funds are available to investors who are participants in the
Business Services Account ("BSA") program. The following is a summary of some of
the  services  that  are  available  to  BSA  participants.  For  more  complete
information,  investors  should  refer to  separate  materials  their  Financial
Advisors can provide them.

      PREMIER BUSINESS SERVICES ACCOUNT  STATEMENT.  BSA participants  receive a
monthly premier  statement,  which provides  consolidated  information to assist
with portfolio management decisions and business finances. The premier statement
summarizes   securities   transactions,   card   transactions,   and  checks  in
chronological  order with running cash and money fund  balances.  The "Portfolio
Management"  feature provides cost basis  information where available as well as
calculations  of gains and  losses  on most  investments.  A menu of  customized
statement   options  is  now  available  to  make  the  monthly  reporting  more
comprehensive.

      PRELIMINARY AND YEAR-END  SUMMARIES  STATEMENT.  BSA participants  receive
preliminary  and  year-end  summary   information   statements  that  provide  a
comprehensive overview of tax-related activity in the account during the year to
help investors plan.

      CHOICE OF MONEY MARKET FUNDS AND AUTOMATIC  SWEEP OF  UNINVESTED  CASH. As
described  more fully in the  Prospectus  under the heading  "Managing Your Fund
Account -- Buying  Shares,"  BSA  participants  select a money  market fund as a
primary  fund from a variety  of taxable  and  tax-free  money  funds into which
uninvested  cash is  automatically  swept  on a daily  basis.  By  automatically
investing cash balances into a money market fund,  this sweep feature  minimizes
the extent to which an  investor's  assets remain idle while held in the account
pending investment.

      CHECK WRITING.  BSA  participants  have ready access to the assets held in
their BSA through the check writing feature. There are no minimum check amounts.
Participants  can order  from a number of  business  check  styles to suit their
check  writing  needs.  The BSA checks also  include an expense code system that
enables  investors  to  track  business  expense  types  for tax  and  financial
planning.

      MASTERCARD  BUSINESSCARD(R)--BSA  participants  can  elect  to  receive  a
complimentary  MasterCard  BusinessCard  debit  card for easy  access to account
assets. The MasterCard  BusinessCard is accepted  worldwide,  and can be used to
obtain  cash  at  thousands  of  automated  teller  machines  ("ATM").   Through
MasterCard's  enhanced  services  programs,  investors can obtain other benefits
including full value primary rental car insurance,  emergency medical and travel
assistance, legal services and purchase protection.

      BSA clients receive  MasterCard Special Services Concierge Service free of
charge. These services help make travel amenities, entertaining, and gift giving
easier with a call to 1-877-828-5203.

      MARGIN.  BSA  Participants  may choose to have a margin feature as part of
their BSA.

      EXTENDED ACCOUNT PROTECTION. The net equity securities balance in a BSA is
protected  through  private  insurance  in  the  event  of  the  liquidation  of
PaineWebber.  This  protection  is in  addition to the  $500,000  in  protection
provided to accountholders  by the Securities  Investor  Protection  Corporation
("SIPC").  Neither the SIPC  protection  nor the additional  account  protection
insurance  applies  to  shares  of funds  that are  registered  with the  funds'
transfer  agent in the name of the  shareholder,  rather  than being held in the
shareholder's  BSA  and  registered  in the  name of  PaineWebber  or one of its
