PROSPECTUS/PROXY STATEMENT
January , 1996
This Prospectus/Proxy Statement ("Proxy Statement") is being furnished to
shareholders of PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Premium Account Fund ("Premium
Account Fund") and PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Cash Reserve Fund, Inc. ("Cash
Reserve Fund") (each an "Acquired Fund" and collectively, the "Acquired Funds")
in connection with the solicitation of proxies by Premium Account Fund's board
of trustees and Cash Reserve Fund's board of directors for use at a combined
special meeting of shareholders of the Acquired Funds, to be held on February
13, 1996, at 10:00 a.m., Eastern time, and at any adjournment thereof
("Meeting").
As more fully described in this Proxy Statement, the purpose of the
Meeting is to vote on two proposed reorganizations (each a "Reorganization" and
collectively, the "Reorganizations"). In each Reorganization, PaineWebber RMA
Money Market Portfolio ("Money Market Portfolio"), a series of PaineWebber RMA
Money Fund, Inc., would acquire the assets of an Acquired Fund in exchange
solely for shares of common stock of Money Market Portfolio and the assumption
by Money Market Portfolio of that Acquired Fund's liabilities. Those Money
Market Portfolio shares then would be distributed to that Acquired Fund's
shareholders, so that each such shareholder would receive a number of full and
fractional shares of Money Market Portfolio having an aggregate net asset value
that, on the effective date of the Reorganization, is equal to the aggregate net
asset value of the shareholder's shares of the Acquired Fund. As soon as
practicable following the distributions, Premium Account Fund will be terminated
and Cash Reserve Fund will be dissolved.
Money Market Portfolio is a diversified money market series of PaineWebber
RMA Money Fund, Inc., which is an open-end management investment company. Money
Market Portfolio's investment objective is to achieve maximum current income
consistent with liquidity and conservation of capital. It seeks to achieve its
investment objective by investing primarily in high-grade money market
instruments with remaining maturities of 13 months or less. These instruments
include U.S. government securities, obligations of U.S. banks, commercial paper
and other short-term corporate obligations, corporate bonds and notes, variable-
and floating-rate securities, and participation interests or repurchase
agreements involving any of the foregoing securities. Money Market Portfolio
and both of the Acquired Funds (each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds") are
money market funds that seek to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share.
<PAGE>
An investment in any of the Funds is neither insured nor guaranteed by the
U.S. government. 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.
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES
AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION NOR HAS THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED
ON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS/PROXY STATEMENT. ANY
REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
This Proxy Statement, which should be retained for future reference, sets
forth concisely the information about each Reorganization and Money Market
Portfolio that a shareholder should know before voting. This Proxy Statement is
accompanied by the Prospectus of Money Market Portfolio, dated August 29, 1995,
which is incorporated by this reference into this Proxy Statement. A Statement
of Additional Information, dated January , 1996, relating to the
Reorganizations and including historical financial statements, has been filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is incorporated herein
by this reference. Prospectuses of Premium Account Fund, dated August 1, 1995,
and Cash Reserve Fund, dated December 1, 1995, and Statements of Additional

PROSPECTUS/PROXY STATEMENT
Special Meeting of Shareholders
To Be Held on

-----------------
VOTING INFORMATION
This Prospectus/Proxy Statement ("Proxy Statement") is being furnished to
shareholders of PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Premium Account Fund ("Premium
Account Fund") and PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Cash Reserve Fund, Inc. ("Cash
Reserve Fund") (each an "Acquired Fund" and collectively, the "Acquired Funds")
in connection with the solicitation of proxies by Premium Account Fund's board
of trustees and Cash Reserve Fund's board of directors for use at a combined
special meeting of shareholders of the Acquired Funds to be held on February 13,
1996, and at any adjournment thereof ("Meeting"). This Proxy Statement will
first be mailed to shareholders on or about January , 1996.
At least a majority of the shares of each Acquired Fund outstanding on
December 28, 1995, represented in person or by proxy, must be present for the
transaction of business by that Acquired Fund at the Meeting. If, with respect
to either Acquired Fund, a quorum is not present at the Meeting or a quorum is
present but it is believed that sufficient votes to approve the proposal will
not be received, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more
adjournments of the Meeting with respect to that Acquired Fund to permit further
solicitation of proxies. Any such adjournment will require the affirmative vote
of a majority of those shares of the Acquired Fund represented at the Meeting in
person or by proxy. The persons named as proxies will vote those proxies that
they are entitled to vote FOR any such proposal in favor of such an adjournment
and will vote those proxies required to be voted AGAINST any such proposal
against such adjournment. A shareholder vote may be taken on one or more of the
proposals in this Proxy Statement prior to any such adjournment if sufficient
votes have been received and it is otherwise appropriate.
Broker non-votes are shares held in street name for which the broker
indicates that instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or
other persons entitled to vote and the broker does not have discretionary voting
authority. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as shares present
for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present but will not be voted
for or against any adjournment or proposal. Accordingly, abstentions and broker
non-votes effectively will be a vote against adjournment or against any proposal
where the required vote is a percentage of the shares present or outstanding.
Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted, however, as votes cast for
purposes of determining whether sufficient votes have been received to approve a
proposal.
The individuals named as proxies on the enclosed proxy card will vote in
accordance with your direction as indicated thereon if your proxy card is
received properly executed by you or your duly appointed agent or
attorney-in-fact. If you sign, date and return the proxy card, but give no
voting instructions, your shares will be voted in favor of approval of whichever
of the following applies to your Acquired Fund: the Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization and Termination dated as of November 30, 1995 involving Premium
Account Fund or the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Dissolution dated
as of November 30, 1995 involving Cash Reserve Fund (each a "Reorganization
Plan"), attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendices A and B, respectively.
Under each Reorganization Plan, PaineWebber RMA Money Market Portfolio ("Money
Market Portfolio"), a series of PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc. ("PW
Corporation"), would acquire the assets of an Acquired Fund in exchange solely
for shares of common stock in Money Market Portfolio and the assumption by Money
Market Portfolio of that Acquired Fund's liabilities; those shares then would be
distributed to that Acquired Fund's
<PAGE>
shareholders. (Each of these transactions is referred to herein as a
"Reorganization.") After completion of a Reorganization, the participating
Acquired Fund will be terminated (in the case of Premium Account Fund) or
dissolved (in the case of Cash Reserve Fund).
In addition, if you sign, date and return the proxy card, but give no
voting instructions, the duly appointed proxies may vote your shares, in their
discretion, upon such other matters as may come before the Meeting. The proxy
card may be revoked by giving another proxy or by letter or telegram revoking
the initial proxy. To be effective, such revocation must be received by the
applicable Acquired Fund prior to the Meeting and must indicate your name and
account number. In addition, if you attend the Meeting in person you may, if
you wish, vote by ballot at the Meeting, thereby canceling any proxy previously
given.
As of the record date, December 28, 1995 ("Record Date"), Premium Account
Fund had _____________ shares of beneficial interest outstanding and Cash
Reserve Fund had _____________ shares of common stock outstanding. The
solicitation of proxies, the cost of which will be borne by Money Market
Portfolio, Premium Account Fund and Cash Reserve Fund (each a "Fund" and
collectively, the "Funds") in proportion to their respective net assets, will be
made primarily by mail but also may include telephone or oral communications by
representatives of Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ("Mitchell
Hutchins"), who will not receive any compensation therefor from the Funds, or by
Shareholder Communications Corporation, professional proxy solicitors retained
by the Acquired Funds, who will be paid fees and expenses of up to approximately
$12,500 for soliciting services. Management does not know of any single
shareholder or "group" (as that term is used in Section 13(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934) who owns beneficially 5% or more of the shares of any Fund
as of the Record Date. Directors and officers of PW Corporation own in the
aggregate less than 1% of the shares of Money Market Portfolio.
Summarized below are the proposals the shareholders of each Acquired Fund
are being asked to consider:
Fund Proposal
---- --------
Premium Account Fund To approve a Reorganization Plan.
Cash Reserve Fund To approve a Reorganization Plan.
For voting purposes, the shareholders of each Acquired Fund will vote
only on the Reorganization Plan applicable to it. Approval of a Reorganization
Plan and consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby for one Acquired
Fund do not depend on the approval of the other Reorganization Plan by the other
Acquired Fund's shareholders and consummation of the transactions contemplated
thereby.
With respect to Premium Account Fund, approval of the Reorganization Plan
requires the affirmative vote of a "majority of the outstanding voting
securities" thereof. As defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940
Act"), "majority of the outstanding voting securities" means the lesser of (1)
67% of Premium Account Fund's shares present at a meeting of shareholders if the
owners of more than 50% of that Acquired Fund's shares then outstanding are
present in person or by proxy, or (2) more than 50% of that Acquired Fund's
outstanding shares. Under Maryland law and Cash Reserve Fund's Articles of
Incorporation, the affirmative vote of a majority of its outstanding shares
entitled to vote at the Meeting is required to approve the Reorganization Plan.
Each outstanding full share of each Acquired Fund is entitled to one vote, and
each outstanding fractional share of each Acquired Fund is entitled to a
proportionate fractional share of one vote. If a Reorganization Plan is not
expected to be approved by the requisite vote of the shareholders of the
involved Acquired Fund, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more
adjournments of the Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies.
SYNOPSIS
The following is a summary of certain information contained elsewhere in
this Proxy Statement, the Prospectuses of the Funds, which are incorporated
herein by reference, and the Reorganization Plans. Shareholders should read
this Proxy Statement and the Prospectus of Money Market Portfolio carefully. As
discussed more fully
2
<PAGE>
below, Premium Account Fund's board of trustees and Cash Reserve Fund's board of
directors believe that the Reorganizations will benefit their respective
Acquired Funds' shareholders. Money Market Portfolio has an investment
objective similar to the investment objective of each Acquired Fund, although
its investment strategy may differ from the Acquired Funds' investment
strategies in some respects. Each Fund is a money market fund that seeks to
maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share. It is anticipated that,
following the Reorganizations, the Acquired Funds' shareholders will, as
shareholders of Money Market Portfolio, be subject to lower total operating
expenses as a percentage of net assets than have historically been experienced
by the Acquired Funds.
The Reorganizations
Premium Account Fund's board of trustees and Cash Reserve Fund's board of
directors each has approved a Reorganization Plan with respect to its Acquired
Fund at a meeting held on July 20, 1995. Each Reorganization Plan provides for
the acquisition by Money Market Portfolio of the assets of an Acquired Fund in
exchange solely for Money Market Portfolio shares and the assumption by Money
Market Portfolio of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund. Each Acquired Fund
then will distribute the Money Market Portfolio shares to its shareholders so
that each shareholder will receive the number of full and fractional shares of
Money Market Portfolio that is equal in value to such shareholder's holdings in
the Acquired Fund as of the Closing Date (defined below). Premium Account Fund
then will be terminated, and Cash Reserve Fund then will be dissolved, as soon
as practicable thereafter.
The exchange of each Acquired Fund's assets for Money Market Portfolio
shares and its assumption of each Acquired Fund's liabilities will occur at or
as of 12:00 noon, Eastern time, on February 20, 1996, or such later date as the
conditions to any such closing are satisfied ("Closing Date").
Each Fund currently offers a single class of shares. Money Market
Portfolio shares are offered primarily to clients of PaineWebber Incorporated
("PaineWebber") and its correspondent firms who are participants in the Resource
Management Account ("RMA") or Business Services Account ("BSA") programs.
Shareholders of an Acquired Fund who receive shares of Money Market Portfolio in
a Reorganization may be eligible to become participants in the RMA or BSA
programs but will not become participants in such programs automatically. Among
the features of the RMA and BSA programs is a daily sweep of uninvested cash in
amounts of $1.00 or more into a designated money market fund. Acquired Fund
shareholders who receive shares of Money Market Portfolio in the Reorganization
but who do not choose to participate in the RMA or BSA programs will have
uninvested cash of $5,000 or more swept into the Money Market Portfolio on a
daily basis, with amounts below $5,000 swept weekly. The RMA and BSA programs
include a full array of premier account services, such as checkwriting, a Gold
or Business Card MasterCard and toll-free telephone access to a customer service
center. The features of the RMA and BSA programs are summarized in Money Market
Portfolio's Statement of Additional Information.
For the reasons set forth below under "The Proposed Transactions -- Reasons
for the Reorganizations," Premium Account Fund's board of trustees and Cash
Reserve Fund's board of directors, including the trustees or directors who are
not "interested persons," as that term is defined in the 1940 Act, of Premium
Account Fund or Cash Reserve Fund, as applicable ("Independent Persons"), have
determined, in each instance, that the Reorganization is in the best interests
of the participating Acquired Fund, that the terms of the Reorganization are
fair and reasonable and that the interests of such Acquired Fund's shareholders
will not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization. Accordingly, Premium
Account Fund's board of trustees and Cash Reserve Fund's board of directors
recommend approval of their respective Reorganizations. In addition, PW
Corporation's board of directors, including its Independent Persons, has
determined that the Reorganizations are in the best interests of Money Market
Portfolio, that the terms of the Reorganizations are fair and reasonable and
that the interests of Money Market Portfolio shareholders will not be diluted as
a result of the Reorganizations.

COMPARATIVE FEE TABLES
Reorganization of Premium Account Fund into Money Market Portfolio
Certain fees and expenses that Premium Account Fund's shareholders pay,
directly or indirectly, are different from those incurred by Money Market
Portfolio's shareholders. As distributor of Premium Account Fund's shares,
PaineWebber is paid a 12b-1 service fee at the annual rate of 0.12% of Premium
Account Fund's average daily net assets. Money Market Portfolio does not pay a
12b-1 service fee. Both Funds pay PaineWebber an annual investment advisory and
administration fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at a rate of 0.50% of
average daily net assets. With respect to both Funds, PaineWebber (not the
Funds) pays Mitchell Hutchins a fee for its sub- advisory and sub-administration
services ("sub-advisory fee") at an annual rate of 20% of the fee received by
PaineWebber for investment advisory and administration services. Following the
Reorganization, PaineWebber will continue to pay Mitchell Hutchins a
sub-advisory fee at the same annual rate. Money Market Portfolio pays

This Example assumes that all dividends are reinvested and that the
percentage amounts listed under Annual Fund Operating Expenses remain the same
in the years shown. The above tables and the assumption in this Example of a 5%
annual return are required by regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") applicable to all mutual funds; the assumed 5% annual return
is not a prediction of, and does not represent, the projected or actual
performance of either Fund's shares.
This Example should not be considered a representation of past or future
expenses, and a Fund's actual expenses may be more or less than those shown.
The actual expenses of each Fund will depend upon, among other things, the level
of its average net assets and the extent to which it incurs variable expenses,
such as transfer agency costs.
Reorganization of Cash Reserve Fund into Money Market Portfolio
Certain fees and expenses that Cash Reserve Fund's shareholders pay,
directly or indirectly, are different from those incurred by Money Market
Portfolio's shareholders. PaineWebber, the investment adviser and administrator
of each Fund, is currently paid (1) by Cash Reserve Fund, an annual investment
advisory and administration fee at an annual rate based upon a sliding scale
related to average daily net assets, which was 0.49% of Cash Reserve Fund's
average daily net assets for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 1995, and
(2) by Money Market Portfolio, an annual investment advisory and administration
fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at a rate of 0.50% of average daily net
assets. In addition, as distributor of Cash Reserve Fund's shares, PaineWebber
is paid a 12b-1 service fee at the annual rate of 0.12% of Cash Reserve Fund's
average daily net assets. Money Market Portfolio does not pay a 12b-1 service
fee. With respect to both Funds, PaineWebber (not the Funds) pays Mitchell
Hutchins a sub-advisory fee at an annual rate of 20% of the fee received by
PaineWebber for investment advisory and administration services. Following the
Reorganization, PaineWebber will continue to pay Mitchell Hutchins a sub-
advisory fee at the same annual rate. Money Market Portfolio pays PaineWebber
an annual fee of $4.00 per active fund account, plus certain out-of-pocket
expenses, for certain services not performed by the Fund's transfer agent. Cash
Reserve Fund does not pay this fee.
The following tables show (1) transaction expenses currently incurred by
shareholders of Cash Reserve Fund and Money Market Portfolio and transaction
expenses those shareholders will incur after giving effect to the Reorganization
and (2) the current fees and expenses incurred for the twelve months ended June
30, 1995 (unaudited) by Cash Reserve Fund and for the fiscal year ended June 30,

Forms of Organization
Cash Reserve Fund and PW Corporation are each organized as a Maryland
corporation. Cash Reserve Fund commenced operations on August 28, 1979. It is
authorized to issue five billion shares of common stock of par value $.01 per
share. Share certificates are issued by Cash Reserve Fund only upon written
request of the shareholder. Money Market Portfolio commenced operations on
October 4, 1982. It is authorized to issue 30 billion shares of common stock of
par value $.001 per share. It does not currently issue share certificates.
Neither Cash Reserve Fund nor PW Corporation is required to hold annual meetings
(and neither does).
Premium Account Fund is organized as a Massachusetts business trust
pursuant to a Declaration of Trust dated January 13, 1982. The Fund's
Declaration of Trust authorizes its trustees to issue an unlimited number of
shares of beneficial interest. The Fund does not currently issue share
certificates. It is not required to (and does not) hold annual shareholder
meetings.
Shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust may, under certain
circumstances, be held personally liable for its obligations. However, the
Declaration of Trust of Premium Account Fund expressly disclaims, and provides
indemnification against, such liability. Accordingly, the risk of a
shareholder's incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability is
limited to circumstances in which Premium Account Fund itself would be unable to
meet its obligations, a possibility that Mitchell Hutchins believes is remote
and, thus, does not pose a material risk.
Investment Objectives and Policies
The investment objectives and policies of each Fund are set forth below.
There can be no assurance that any Fund will achieve its investment objective.
An investment in a Fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the
8
<PAGE>
U.S. government. 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.
Money Market Portfolio. The investment objective of Money Market
Portfolio is to provide maximum current income consistent with liquidity and
conservation of capital. The Fund invests in high-grade money market
instruments with remaining maturities of 13 months or less. These instruments
include U.S. government securities, obligations of U.S. banks, commercial paper
and other short-term corporate obligations, corporate bonds and notes, variable-
and floating-rate securities, and participation interests or repurchase
agreements involving any of the foregoing securities. Participation interests
are pro rata interests in securities held by others.
The U.S. government securities in which the Fund may invest include
direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury (such as Treasury bills, notes and
bonds) and obligations issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies and
instrumentalities, including securities that are supported by the full faith and
credit of the United States (such as Government National Mortgage Association
("GNMA") certificates), securities supported primarily or solely by the
creditworthiness of the issuer (such as securities of the Resolution Funding
Corporation and the Tennessee Valley Authority) and securities that are
supported primarily or solely by specific pools of assets and the
creditworthiness of a U.S. government-related issuer (such as mortgage-backed
securities issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA")).
The Fund may invest in obligations (including certificates of deposit
("CDs"), bankers' acceptances and similar obligations) of U.S. banks, including
foreign branches of domestic banks and domestic branches of foreign banks,
having total assets in excess of $1.5 billion at the time of purchase. The Fund
may also invest in interest- bearing savings deposits in U.S. commercial and
savings banks having total assets of $1.5 billion or less, provided that the
principal amounts at each such bank are fully insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") and the aggregate amount of such deposits (plus
interest earned) does not exceed 5% of the value of the Fund's assets.
The commercial paper and other short-term corporate obligations purchased
by the Fund consist only of obligations that Mitchell Hutchins determines,
pursuant to procedures adopted by PW Corporation's board of directors, present
minimal credit risks and are either (1) rated in the highest short-term rating
category by at least two nationally recognized statistical rating organizations
("NRSROs"), such as Standard & Poor's ("S&P") or Moody's Investors Service, Inc.
("Moody's"), (2) rated in the highest short-term rating category by a single
NRSRO if only that NRSRO has assigned the obligations a short-term rating or (3)
unrated, but determined by Mitchell Hutchins to be of comparable quality ("First
Tier Securities"). The Fund generally may invest no more than 5% of its total
assets in the securities of a single issuer (other than securities issued by the
U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities).
Cash Reserve Fund. Cash Reserve Fund seeks to maximize current income to
the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of
liquidity. To achieve its goal, the Fund invests in debt obligations (whether
or not subject to repurchase agreements) consisting exclusively of the following
short-term money market instruments: securities issued or guaranteed by the
U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities, corporate obligations
(including bonds, debentures and notes), CDs, time deposits ("TDs"), bankers'
acceptances and other short-term obligations issued by domestic banks, foreign
branches of domestic banks and savings and loan and similar associations,
repurchase agreements and high-grade commercial paper. In addition, the Fund
may invest in obligations of foreign banks and institutions that have the
equivalent credit ratings of domestic issues, including Yankee and foreign bank
bankers' acceptances and commercial paper. All portfolio securities are
purchased with and payable in U.S. dollars.
Securities issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S.
government include a variety of Treasury securities, which differ in their
interest rates, maturities and times of issuance: Treasury bills have initial
maturities of one year or less; Treasury notes have initial maturities of one to
ten years; and Treasury bonds generally have initial maturities of greater than
ten years. Some obligations issued or guaranteed by agencies or
instrumentalities of the U.S. government, such as those issued by GNMA, are
supported by the full faith and credit of the Treasury; others, such as those
issued by the Federal Home Loan Banks, by the right of the issuer to borrow
9
<PAGE>
from the Treasury; others, such as those issued by FNMA, by discretionary
authority of the U.S. government to purchase certain obligations of the issuer;
and others, such as those issued by the Student Loan Marketing Association, only
by the credit of the issuer.
CDs are certificates representing the obligation of a bank to repay funds
deposited with it for a specified period of time. TDs are non-negotiable
deposits maintained in a banking institution for a specified period of time at a
stated interest rate. The Fund does not purchase TDs maturing in more than
seven days. Bankers' acceptances are credit instruments evidencing the
obligation of a bank to pay a draft drawn on it by a customer; the instrument
reflects the obligation both of the bank and of the drawer to pay the face
amount of the instrument upon maturity. Other short-term bank obligations may
include uninsured, direct obligations, bearing fixed, floating or variable
interest rates. Investments by the Fund in CDs, TDs and bankers' acceptances
are limited to banks and savings and loan and similar associations having total
assets in excess of $1 billion.
Commercial paper purchased by the Fund consists only of direct obligations
issued by domestic and foreign entities. The other corporate obligations in
which the Fund may invest consist of high quality, U.S. dollar-denominated
short-term bonds and notes issued by domestic and foreign corporations.
The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements. Under a repurchase
agreement, the Fund acquires an underlying debt instrument for a relatively
short period (usually not more than one week) subject to an obligation of the
seller to repurchase and the Fund to resell the instrument at a fixed price and
time, thereby determining the yield during the Fund's holding period. The Fund
may enter into repurchase agreements only with domestic banks or selected
dealers or foreign banks and dealers with respect to securities of the type in
which it invests. Repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven days will
not exceed 10% of the value of the Fund's net assets.
Premium Account Fund. The investment objective of Premium Account Fund
is to seek high current income, preservation of capital and liquidity through
investments in short-term money market instruments. The Fund seeks to achieve
its objective by investing in the following money market instruments:
U.S. Government Securities. Obligations issued or guaranteed as to
principal and interest by the U.S. government or its agencies (such as the
Export-Import Bank of the United States, Federal Housing Administration and
GNMA) or its instrumentalities (such as the Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal
Intermediate Credit Banks, Federal Land Bank and FNMA). Except for U.S.
Treasury securities, these obligations may or may not be backed by the "full
faith and credit" of the United States. In the case of securities not backed by
the full faith and credit of the United States, the Fund must look principally
to the agency or instrumentality issuing or guaranteeing the obligation for
ultimate repayment, and may not be able to assert a claim against the United
States itself in the event the agency or instrumentality does not meet its
commitments.
Bank Obligations. Obligations (including TDs, CDs and bankers'
acceptances) of domestic banks subject to regulation by the U.S. government and
having total assets of $1 billion or more, and repurchase agreements secured by
such obligations, including obligations of foreign branches of domestic banks.
Fixed TDs, unlike negotiable CDs, generally do not have a market and may be
subject to penalties for early withdrawal of funds. However, it is the present
policy of the Fund not to invest in fixed TDs with a duration of over seven
calendar days. The Fund also will not invest in TDs with a duration of from two
business to seven calendar days if more than 10% of its assets would be invested
in such deposits.
Obligations of Savings Institutions. CDs of savings banks and savings and
loan associations having total assets of $1 billion or more.
Fully Insured Certificates of Deposit. CDs of domestic banks and savings
institutions having total assets of less than $1 billion, if the principal
amount of the obligation is insured by the FDIC, limited to $100,000 principal
amount per certificate per bank and to 5% of the Fund's total assets in all such
obligations.
Commercial Paper. Commercial paper rated the highest grade by either S&P
or Moody's, or, if not rated, issued by a company having an outstanding debt
issue rated at least AA by S&P or Aa by Moody's.
10
<PAGE>
Corporate Obligations. Corporate obligations, including bonds, debentures
and notes, rated at least AA by S&P or Aa by Moody's, with remaining maturities
of 397 days or less.
Obligations of Foreign Banks and Institutions. Obligations of foreign
banks and institutions that have the equivalent credit ratings of domestic
issues, including but not limited to, Yankee and foreign bank bankers'
acceptances and commercial paper.
Variable Amount Master Demand Notes. Variable amount master demand notes
issued by domestic corporations that, at the date of investment, either (a) have
an outstanding senior long-term debt issue rated at least Aa by Moody's or AA by
S&P or (b) do not have rated long-term debt outstanding but have commercial
paper rated Prime-1 by Moody's or A-1 by S&P. Variable amount master demand
notes are obligations that permit the investment by the Fund of fluctuating
amounts as determined by the Fund at varying rates of interest pursuant to
direct arrangements between the Fund and the issuing corporation. Although
callable on demand by the Fund, these obligations are not marketable to third
parties.
Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may invest without limit in any of the
above securities subject to repurchase agreements with major dealers in U.S.
government securities, member banks of the Federal Reserve System and foreign
banks and dealers that are primary dealers, selected by Mitchell Hutchins in
accordance with procedures approved by the Trustees.
Asset-Backed Securities. The Fund may invest in high quality asset-backed
securities, including interests in pools of assets such as motor vehicle
installment purchase obligations and credit card receivables.
Additional Investment Techniques and Investment Restrictions
Money Market Portfolio. The Fund may also acquire securities issued or
guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government in the form of
custodial receipts that evidence ownership of future interest payments,
principal payments or both on certain U.S. Treasury notes or bonds. Such notes
and bonds are held in custody by a bank on behalf of the owners of such notes or
bonds. The Fund may also invest in separately traded principal and interest
components of securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury ("STRIPS").
The principal and interest components of STRIPS are individually numbered and
separately issued by the U.S. Treasury, and these components are traded
separately. The Fund may purchase variable- and floating-rate securities with
remaining maturities in excess of 13 months issued by U.S. government agencies
or instrumentalities or guaranteed by the U.S. government or, if subject to a
demand feature exercisable within 13 months or less, issued by U.S. companies.
The yield on these securities is adjusted in relation to changes in specific
rates, such as the prime rate, and different securities may have different
adjustment rates. Certain of these obligations carry a demand feature that
gives the Fund the right to tender them to the issuer or a remarketing agent and
receive the principal amount of the security prior to maturity. Securities
purchased by the Fund may include variable amount master demand notes. These
notes are payable on demand and are typically unrated.
The ratings of NRSROs represent their opinions as to the quality of the
obligations they undertake to rate. Ratings, however, are general and are not
absolute standards of quality. Subsequent to its purchase by the Fund, an issue
may cease to be rated or its rating may be reduced. In the event that a
security in the Fund's portfolio ceases to be a "First Tier Security," or
Mitchell Hutchins becomes aware that a security has received a rating below the
second highest rating by any NRSRO, Mitchell Hutchins will consider whether the
Fund should continue to hold the obligation.
The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with U.S. banks and dealers
with respect to any security in which the Fund is authorized to invest.
Repurchase agreements carry certain risks not associated with direct investments
in securities, including possible decline in the market value of the underlying
securities and delays and costs to the Fund if the other party becomes
insolvent. The Fund intends to enter into repurchase agreements only with banks
and dealers in transactions believed by Mitchell Hutchins to present minimal
credit risks in accordance with guidelines established by PW Corporation's board
of directors.
11
<PAGE>
The Fund may enter into reverse repurchase agreements with banks and
dealers up to an aggregate value of not more than 5% of the Fund's assets. Such
agreements involve the sale of securities by the Fund subject to its agreement
to repurchase the securities at an agreed-upon date and price reflecting a
market rate of interest. Such agreements are considered to be borrowings by the
Fund and may be entered into only for temporary or emergency purposes. While a
reverse repurchase agreement is outstanding, the Fund's custodian segregates
assets to cover the Fund's obligations.
The Fund will not invest more than 10% of its net assets in illiquid
securities The term "illiquid securities" for this purpose means securities
that cannot be disposed of within seven days in the ordinary course of business
at approximately the amount at which the Fund has valued the securities.
The Fund may invest in obligations of domestic branches of foreign banks
and foreign branches of domestic banks. Such investments may involve risks that
are different from investments in obligations of domestic branches of domestic
banks. These risks may include unfavorable political and economic developments,
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 securities held by the Fund.
The Fund may invest in variable- and floating-rate securities with demand
features. A demand feature gives the Fund the right to sell the securities back
to a specified party, usually a remarketing agent, on a specified date, at a
price equal to their par value. A demand feature is often backed by a letter of
credit or guarantee from a bank. The ability of a bank to fulfill its
obligations under a letter of credit or guarantee might be affected by possible
financial difficulties of its borrowers, adverse interest rate or economic
conditions, regulatory limitations or other factors.
The Fund may not (1) borrow money, except from banks for temporary purposes
and except for reverse repurchase agreements if otherwise permitted and then in
an aggregate amount not in excess of 10% of the total asset value of the Fund;
(2) mortgage, pledge or hypothecate any assets except in connection with any
such borrowing and in such case the aggregate amount may not be in excess of the
lesser of the dollar amounts borrowed or 5% of the value of the Fund's assets;
(3) make loans, except that the Fund may purchase or hold debt instruments,
including repurchase agreements, in accordance with its investment policies and
restrictions; (4) purchase or sell real estate, except that the Fund may
purchase commercial paper issued by companies, including real estate investment
trusts, which invest in real estate or interests therein; (5) purchase
securities on margin, make short sales of securities or maintain a short
position; (6) act as underwriter of securities; (7) purchase or sell commodities
or commodity contracts, or invest in oil, gas or mineral exploration or
development programs; (8) acquiring voting securities of any issuer or acquire
securities of other investment companies, except in connection with a merger,
consolidation or acquisition; (9) purchase securities of any one issuer, other
than the U.S. government and its agencies and instrumentalities, if immediately
after such purchase more than 5% of the Fund's total asset value would be
invested in such issuer, except that up to 25% of the Fund's total asset value
may be invested without regard to such 5% limitation; or (10) purchase
securities if immediately after such purchase more than 25% of the Fund's total
asset value would be invested in the securities of one or more issuers
conducting their principal business activities in the same industry, provided
that there is no limitation with respect to investments in U.S. Treasury bills,
other obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or
instrumentalities, certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances of domestic
branches of U.S. banks.
Cash Reserve Fund. The Fund may from time to time lend securities from
its portfolio to brokers, dealers and financial institutions and receive
collateral consisting of cash or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, which collateral will be maintained at all times in an amount equal
to at least 100% of the current market value of the loaned securities. Such
loans may not exceed 20% of the value of the Fund's total assets.
The Fund may (1) borrow money, but only from banks for the purpose of
meeting redemption requests that might otherwise require the untimely
disposition of securities, in an amount up to 10% of the value of its total
assets (including the borrowed amount), valued at the lesser of cost or market,
less liabilities (not including the borrowed amount); (2) pledge its assets, but
only in an amount up to 10% of the value of its total assets, to secure
borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes; (3) lend its portfolio
securities up to 20% of the value of its total assets; and
12
<PAGE>
(4) invest up to 25% of its total assets in the securities of issuers in any one
industry, provided that there is no such limitation on investments in
obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or
instrumentalities, CDs and bankers' acceptances.
The Fund will not invest more than 5% of its total assets in the securities
(including securities collateralizing a repurchase agreement) of, or subject to
puts issued by, a single issuer, except that (1) the Fund may invest more than
5% of its total assets in a single issuer for a period of up to three business
days in certain limited circumstances, (2) the Fund may invest in obligations
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government without any such limitation, and (3)
the limitation with respect to puts does not apply to unconditional puts if not
more than 10% of the Fund's total assets is invested in securities issued or
guaranteed by the issuer of the unconditional put. The Fund invests only in
securities determined in accordance with procedures determined by its board of
directors to present minimal credit risks and which are rated in one of the two
highest rating categories for debt obligations by at least two NRSROs or, if
unrated, are of comparable quality. Investments not rated in the highest
category by at least two NRSROs (or by one NRSRO if the instrument was rated by
only one NRSRO) and unrated securities not determined by the Fund's board of
directors to be comparable to those rated in the highest category, will be
limited to 5% of the Fund's total assets, with the investment in any one such
issuer being limited to no more than the greater of 1% of the Fund's total
assets or $1,000,000.
Premium Account Fund. The Fund may invest in asset-backed and receivable-
backed securities. Several types of such securities have been offered to
investors, including "Certificates for Automobile Receivables" ("CARs") and
interests in pools of credit card receivables. CARs represent undivided
fractional interests in a trust, the assets of which consist of a pool of motor
vehicle retail installment sales contracts and security interests in the
vehicles securing the contracts. Payments of principal and interest on CARs are
passed through monthly to certificate holders and are guaranteed up to certain
amounts and for a certain time period by a letter of credit issued by a
financial institution unaffiliated with the trustee or originator of the trust.
An investor's return on CARs may be affected by early prepayment of principal on
the underlying vehicle sales contracts. If the letter of credit is exhausted,
the Fund may be prevented from realizing the full amount due on a sales contract
because of state law requirements and restrictions relating to foreclosure sales
of vehicles and the availability of deficiency judgments following such sales,
because of depreciation, damage or loss of a vehicle, because of the application
of federal and state bankruptcy and insolvency laws or other factors. As a
result, certificate holders may experience delays in payment if the letter of
credit is exhausted. Consistent with the Fund's investment objective and
policies and, subject to the review and approval of its trustees, it also may
invest in other types of asset-backed and receivable-backed securities.
Premium Account Fund may not:
(1) Purchase any common stocks or other equity securities;
(2) Borrow money, except from banks for temporary or emergency purposes,
including the meeting of redemption requests that might otherwise require the
untimely disposition of securities. Borrowing in the aggregate may not exceed
20%, and borrowing for purposes other than meeting redemptions may not exceed
5%, of the value of the Fund's total assets (including the amount borrowed),
less liabilities (not including the amount borrowed) at the time the borrowing
is made. Investment securities will not be purchased while borrowings are
outstanding;
(3) Make loans to others, except through the purchase of debt obligations,
loans of portfolio securities and through repurchase agreements, provided that
the Fund will not enter into repurchase agreements of more than one week
duration if, together with illiquid securities and other securities for which
there are not readily available market quotations, more than 10% of its assets
would be so invested. Loans of portfolio securities will not exceed 10% of the
value of the Fund's total assets;
(4) Invest more than 15% of its assets in the securities of any one bank
or purchase any securities (other than obligations or securities of (a) domestic
banks and savings institutions subject to regulation of the U.S. government or
(b) the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities) if, immediately
after such purchase, more than 5% of the value of the Fund's total assets would
be invested in securities of any one issuer or more than 10%
13
<PAGE>
of the outstanding securities of one issuer would be owned by the Fund.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required by the rules of the SEC,
the Fund will not invest more than 5% of its assets in the obligations of any
one bank; or
(5) Purchase any securities, other than obligations or securities of (a)
domestic banks and savings institutions subject to regulation of the U.S.
government or (b) the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities, if
immediately after such purchase more than 25% of the value of the Fund's total
assets would be invested in the securities of issuers in the same industry.
Operations of Money Market Portfolio Following the Reorganizations
As noted above, there are differences in the Funds' investment policies.
It is not expected, however, that Money Market Portfolio will revise its
investment policies following the Reorganizations to reflect those of either
Acquired Fund. Since the Acquired Funds are permitted to invest in securities
having characteristics different from those permitted for Money Market
Portfolio, certain of the securities currently held in the Acquired Funds'
portfolios may need to be sold, rather than transferred to Money Market
Portfolio. If the Reorganizations are approved, the Acquired Funds will sell
any assets that are inconsistent with the investment policies of Money Market
Portfolio prior to the effective time of the Reorganizations, and the proceeds
thereof will be held in temporary investments or reinvested in assets that
qualify to be held by Money Market Portfolio. The necessity for the Acquired
Funds to dispose of assets prior to the effective time of the Reorganizations
may result in selling securities at a disadvantageous time and could result in
the Acquired Funds' realizing losses that would not otherwise have been
realized.
Purchases and Redemptions
Shares of each Fund are available through PaineWebber and its
correspondent firms. There is no minimum initial investment in Money Market
Portfolio; shares of the Fund are offered primarily to clients of PaineWebber
and its correspondent firms who are participants in the RMA or BSA programs.
There is no minimum initial investment in Premium Account Fund; shares of the
Fund are offered exclusively to existing shareholders of the Fund through their
PaineWebber brokerage accounts. Shares of Cash Reserve Fund are offered
exclusively to existing shareholders of the Fund through their PaineWebber
brokerage accounts. If a Cash Reserve Fund shareholder has a brokerage account
with PaineWebber, credit balances in such account are swept automatically into
shares of the Fund. Cash Reserve Fund shares may be purchased in conjunction
with an individual retirement account or a qualified retirement plan, with an
initial investment of $250.
Shares of each Fund may be redeemed at their net asset value per share
next determined after a redemption request is properly received. Within three
Business Days after receipt of the request, redemption proceeds will be credited
to the shareholder's account or sent to the shareholder. A "Business Day" is
any day on which the offices of the applicable Fund's custodian, and the New
York offices of PaineWebber and PaineWebber's bank, are all open for business.
Clients of PaineWebber or its correspondent firms may redeem shares from a Fund
account by wire, telephone or mail.
If a Reorganization is approved with respect to an Acquired Fund, its
shares will cease to be offered on February 16, 1996, so that its shares will no
longer be available for purchase or exchange thereafter. If the Meeting with
respect to an Acquired Fund is adjourned and the Reorganization Plan involving
it is approved on a later date, its shares will no longer be available for
purchase or exchange on the Business Day following the date on which the
Reorganization Plan is approved and all contingencies have been met.
Redemptions of an Acquired Fund's shares and exchanges of those shares for
shares of any other PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody mutual fund that is eligible for
exchange may be effected until the Closing Date.
14
<PAGE>
Exchanges
The exchange policies of the Funds differ. Shares of Money Market
Portfolio are not exchangeable for shares of any other fund, while shares of
each Acquired Fund may be exchanged for shares of other PaineWebber/Kidder,
Peabody mutual funds. After the Reorganizations, shares of Money Market
Portfolio will continue to not be exchangeable.
Dividends and Other Distributions
Each Business Day, each Fund declares as dividends all of its net
investment income. Shares begin earning dividends on the day of purchase;
dividends are accrued to shareholder accounts daily and are automatically paid
in additional Fund shares monthly. Each Fund distributes its net short-term
capital gain, if any, annually, but may make more frequent distributions of such
gain if necessary to maintain its net asset value at $1.00 per share or to avoid
income or excise taxes.
On or before the Closing Date, each Acquired Fund will declare as a
dividend substantially all of its net investment income and net short-term
capital gain, if any, and distribute that amount plus any previously declared
but unpaid dividends, in order to continue to maintain its tax status as a
regulated investment company. Such distributions by an Acquired Fund will be
paid only in cash.
Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reorganizations
PW Corporation has received an opinion of Kirkpatrick & Lockhart LLP, its
counsel, and Premium Account Fund has received an opinion of Sullivan &
Cromwell, its counsel, with respect to the Reorganization involving that Fund,
each to the effect that the Reorganization will constitute a tax-free
reorganization under section 368(a)(1)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended ("Code"). Accordingly, no gain or loss will be recognized to Money
Market Portfolio, Premium Account Fund or their shareholders as a result of the
Reorganization. See "The Proposed Transactions--Federal Income Tax
Considerations--Premium Account Fund Reorganization," page 19.
Because of the redemption or exchange, in connection with the
Reorganization involving Cash Reserve Fund, of certain shares of that Fund held
by individual retirement accounts and qualified retirement plans, the
Reorganization will not constitute a tax-free reorganization and, instead, will
constitute a taxable sale of assets by Cash Reserve Fund followed by its
dissolution. However, it is the assessment of Mitchell Hutchins that only
minimal (or no) gain or loss will be recognized to Money Market Portfolio or
Cash Reserve Fund or their shareholders as a result of the Reorganization. See
"The Proposed Transactions--Reasons for the Reorganizations," page 18, and "The
Proposed Transactions--Federal Income Tax Considerations--Cash Reserve Fund
Reorganization," page 20.
COMPARISON OF PRINCIPAL RISK FACTORS
Because the Funds' investment objectives and policies are similar and
because the Funds are managed by the same investment adviser, the three Funds
will be subject to similar investment risks. These risks are those typically
associated with investing in a money market fund.
There are, however, the following primary differences in the investment
policies of Money Market Portfolio and the Acquired Funds.
The commercial paper and other short-term corporate obligations purchased
by Money Market Portfolio consist only of "First Tier Securities." First Tier
Securities are obligations that Mitchell Hutchins determines, pursuant to
procedures adopted by PW Corporation's board of directors, present minimal
credit risks and are either (1) rated in the highest short-term rating category
by at least two NRSROs (AAA by S&P or Aaa by Moody's for corporate bonds, and
A-1+ by S&P or Prime-1 by Moody's for commercial paper), (2) rated in the
highest short-term rating category by a single NRSRO if only that NRSRO has
assigned the obligations a short-term rating or (3) unrated, but determined by
Mitchell Hutchins to be of comparable quality. In the event that a security in
the Fund's
15
<PAGE>
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 NRSRO, Mitchell Hutchins will consider whether the Fund should continue to
hold the obligation.
By comparison, Premium Account Fund may invest in commercial paper rated
the highest grade by one NRSRO or, if not rated, issued by a company having an
outstanding debt issue rated at least AA by S&P or Aa by Moody's; and it may
invest in corporate obligations, including bonds, debentures and notes, rated at
least AA by S&P or Aa by Moody's, with remaining maturities of 397 days or less.
Cash Reserve Fund may invest in corporate obligations determined in accordance
with procedures established by its board of directors to present minimal credit
risks and that are rated in one of the two highest rating categories for debt
obligations by at least two NRSROs or, if unrated, are of comparable quality.
Each Acquired Fund invests in obligations of foreign banks and institutions
that have the equivalent credit ratings of domestic issues, including Yankee and
foreign bank bankers' acceptances and commercial paper. Money Market Portfolio
does not invest in foreign bank obligations of this type. Such investments may
involve risks that are different from investments in obligations of domestic
branches of domestic banks. These risks may include unfavorable political and
economic developments, 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 securities held by a Fund.
Money Market Portfolio invests in obligations of banks with assets in
excess of $1.5 billion, while each Acquired Fund invests in obligations of
banks with assets in excess of $1 billion. Each Acquired Fund may make loans of
portfolio securities; Money Market Portfolio may not. Premium Account Fund may
invest in asset-backed and receivable-backed securities, while Money Market
Portfolio and Cash Reserve Fund may not.
THE PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS
Reorganization Plans
The terms and conditions under which the proposed transactions may be
consummated are set forth in the Reorganization Plans. Significant provisions
of the Reorganization Plans are summarized below; however, this summary is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Reorganization Plans, which are
attached as Appendices A and B to this Proxy Statement.
Each Reorganization Plan contemplates (a) Money Market Portfolio's
acquiring on the Closing Date the assets of an Acquired Fund in exchange solely
for Money Market Portfolio shares and the assumption by Money Market Portfolio
of the Acquired Fund's liabilities and (b) the constructive distribution of
those shares to the shareholders of the Acquired Fund.
The assets of each Acquired Fund to be acquired by Money Market Portfolio
shall include all cash, cash equivalents, securities, receivables and other
property owned by the Acquired Fund. Money Market Portfolio will assume from
each Acquired Fund all debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of such Fund
of whatever kind or nature; provided, however, that each Acquired Fund will use
its best efforts, to the extent practicable, to discharge all of its known
debts, liabilities, obligations and duties prior to the Closing Date. Money
Market Portfolio will also deliver to each Acquired Fund shares of Money Market
Portfolio which then will be constructively distributed to the Acquired Funds'
shareholders.
The value of an Acquired Fund's assets to be acquired, and the amount of
its liabilities to be assumed, by Money Market Portfolio and the net asset value
of a Money Market Portfolio share will be determined as of 12:00 noon Eastern
time on the Closing Date. The amortized cost method of valuation will be used
to value each Fund's securities. All other assets and liabilities will be
valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of PW
Corporation's or Cash Reserve Fund's board of directors or Premium Account
Fund's board of trustees, as applicable.
16
<PAGE>
On, or as soon as practicable after, the Closing Date, each Acquired Fund
will distribute to its shareholders of record the Money Market Portfolio shares
it received so that each shareholder of the Acquired Fund will receive a number
of full and fractional Money Market Portfolio shares equal in value to the
shareholder's holdings in the Acquired Fund; each Acquired Fund will be
terminated (in the case of Premium Account Fund) or dissolved (in the case of
Cash Reserve Fund) as soon as practicable thereafter. Such distribution will be
accomplished by opening accounts on the books of Money Market Portfolio in the
names of the Acquired Fund's shareholders and by transferring thereto the shares
previously credited to the account of each Acquired Fund on those books.
Fractional Money Market Portfolio shares will be rounded to the third decimal
place.
Accordingly, immediately after the applicable Reorganization, each former
shareholder of an Acquired Fund will own shares of Money Market Portfolio that
will equal the value of that shareholder's shares of the Acquired Fund
immediately prior to the Reorganization. Moreover, because Money Market
Portfolio shares will be issued at net asset value in exchange for the net
assets applicable to each Acquired Fund, the aggregate net asset value of Money
Market Portfolio shares so issued will equal the aggregate net asset value of
shares of the Acquired Funds. The net asset value per share of Money Market
Portfolio will be unchanged by the transaction. Thus, the Reorganization(s)
will not result in a dilution of any shareholder's interest.
Any transfer taxes payable upon issuance of any shares of Money Market
Portfolio in a name other than that of the registered holder of the shares on
the books of an Acquired Fund shall be paid by the person to whom such shares
are to be issued as a condition of such transfer. Any reporting responsibility
of an Acquired Fund will continue to be its responsibility up to and including
the Closing Date and such later date on which it is terminated or dissolved
(whichever is applicable).
The cost of the Reorganizations, including professional fees and the cost
of soliciting proxies for the Meeting, consisting principally of printing and
mailing expenses, together with the cost of any supplementary solicitation, will
be borne by all three Funds in proportion to their respective net assets.
Mitchell Hutchins recommended this method of expense allocation to the
directors/trustees. Mitchell Hutchins based its recommendations on its belief
that this method is fair because, for the reasons discussed under "Reasons for
the Reorganizations," the Reorganizations have the potential to benefit all
Funds. The directors of PW Corporation and Cash Reserve Fund and the trustees
of Premium Account Fund considered this expense allocation method in approving
the respective Reorganizations, finding that the Reorganizations are in the
best interests of their respective Funds.
The consummation of each Reorganization is subject to a number of
conditions set forth in the applicable Reorganization Plan, some of which may be
waived by the parties thereto. In addition, the Reorganization Plans may be
amended in any mutually agreeable manner, except that no amendment may be made
subsequent to the Meeting that would have a material adverse effect on the
shareholders' interests.
Reasons for the Reorganizations
The board of directors of Cash Reserve Fund, including a majority of its
Independent Persons, has determined that the Reorganization involving that Fund
is in its best interests, that the terms of that Reorganization are fair and
reasonable and that the interests of Cash Reserve Fund's shareholders will not
be diluted as a result of that Reorganization. Premium Account Fund's board of
trustees, including a majority of its Independent Persons, has determined that
the Reorganization is in its best interests, that the terms of that
Reorganization are fair and reasonable and that the interests of Premium Account
Fund's shareholders will not be diluted as a result of that Reorganization. The
board of directors of PW Corporation including a majority of its Independent
Persons, has determined that each Reorganization is in the best interests of
Money Market Portfolio, that the terms of each Reorganization is fair and
reasonable, and that the interests of Money Market Portfolio's shareholders will
not be diluted as a result of either Reorganization.
In considering each Reorganization, and the Reorganizations together, the
boards of directors/trustees made an extensive inquiry into a number of factors,
including the following:
(1) the compatibility of the investment objectives, policies and
restrictions of the applicable Funds;
18
<PAGE>
(2) the effect of the Reorganization(s) on expected investment performance;
(3) the effect of the Reorganization(s) on the expense ratio of Money
Market Portfolio (after the Reorganizations) relative to each Fund's
current expense ratio;
(4) the costs to be incurred by each Fund as a result of the
Reorganization(s);
(5) the tax consequences of the applicable Reorganization;
(6) possible alternatives to the Reorganization(s), including continuing
to operate on a stand-alone basis or liquidation; and
(7) the potential benefits of the Reorganization(s) to other persons,
especially Mitchell Hutchins and PaineWebber.
At meetings of the Acquired Funds' boards of directors/trustees and of PW
Corporation's board of directors on July 20, 1995, Mitchell Hutchins
recommended, and the boards approved, the respective Reorganizations. Mitchell
Hutchins and each board believe that the respective Reorganizations offer the
Acquired Fund shareholders the benefits of investing in a larger, diversified
open-end money market fund with an investment objective and investment policies
substantially similar to those of the respective Acquired Funds.
In recommending the Reorganizations, Mitchell Hutchins indicated to the
boards that the investment advisory and administration fee schedule applicable
to Money Market Portfolio would be equal to or lower than that currently in
effect for Premium Account Fund. The advisory fees paid by Cash Reserve Fund
for the twelve month period ended June 30, 1995 were slightly lower (0.49% of
average net assets) than the advisory fees paid by Money Market Portfolio (0.50%
of average net assets). Such an increase in the advisory fees payable by Cash
Reserve Fund shareholders would be more than offset by the elimination of the
12b-1 fees currently paid by Cash Reserve Fund (0.12% of average net assets), as
Money Market Portfolio does not currently pay 12b-1 fees. In approving the
Reorganizations, the boards noted that the overall investment objective of
maximum or high current income consistent with liquidity and conservation of
capital remains an appropriate one to offer investors as part of an overall
investment strategy.
The boards of directors of Cash Reserve Fund and PW Corporation considered
the taxable nature of the Reorganization involving that Fund, and they have been
advised that there should be little tax impact on that Fund's shareholders
despite the taxable nature of the transaction:
(1) Although gain or loss may be recognized to Cash Reserve Fund, depending
on whether its aggregate tax basis for its assets is less than,
equal to, or exceeds the sum of the fair market value of the Money Market
Portfolio shares received and the amount of the liabilities assumed by
Money Market Portfolio, that gain or loss should be negligible. Because of
the relative stability in value of the short-term high quality obligations
purchased by Cash Reserve Fund, its tax basis for its assets should not
vary markedly from the value of those assets on the Closing Date (which
determines the amount paid for those assets by Money Market Portfolio).
(2) Although a Cash Reserve Fund shareholder may, in theory, recognize
either gain or loss on the constructive exchange of all its Cash Reserve
Fund shares for Money Market Portfolio shares pursuant to the
Reorganization, depending on whether the shareholder's tax basis for its
Cash Reserve Fund shares is less than, equal to or exceeds, the fair market
value of the Money Market Portfolio shares received, that gain or loss
should be negligible (or even nonexistent). Because Cash Reserve Fund
and Money Market Portfolio attempt to maintain a stable net asset value
per share of $1.00, and their shares are purchased at net asset value (by
direct investment by the shareholder or by reinvestment of taxable
dividends and other distributions), each shareholder's tax basis for its
Cash Reserve Fund shares should be equal or close to equal to the value
of the Money Market Portfolio shares constructively received in exchange
for those Cash Reserve Fund shares.
18
<PAGE>
(3) Although a Cash Reserve Fund shareholder's holding period for the
Money Market Portfolio shares it receives will not include its holding
period for its Cash Reserve Fund shares, this should have little impact
on a shareholder. Because a shareholder's tax basis for its Money Market
Portfolio shares should be equal or close to equal to the value of such
shares, the shareholder should have little or no gain on the redemption of
those shares and, therefore, there should be little consequence if those
shares had not been held long enough to qualify for long-term capital
gain treatment.
THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES/DIRECTORS OF EACH ACQUIRED FUND RECOMMENDS TO
ITS SHAREHOLDERS THAT THEY VOTE "FOR" THE APPLICABLE REORGANIZATION.
Description of Securities to be Issued
PW Corporation is registered with the SEC as an open-end management
investment company. Its directors are authorized to issue 30 billion shares of
common stock (par value $.001 per share), 15 billion of which are designated as
shares of Money Market Portfolio. The directors have established Money Market
Portfolio as one of PW Corporation's series. Each share of Money Market
Portfolio represents an equal proportionate interest in the Fund with each other
share thereof. Shares of Money Market Portfolio entitle their holders to one
vote per full share and fractional votes for fractional shares held.
PW Corporation does not hold annual meetings of shareholders. The
directors are required to call a meeting of shareholders for the purpose of
voting upon the question of removal of any director when requested in writing to
do so by the shareholders of record holding at least 10% of PW Corporation's
outstanding shares.
Federal Income Tax Considerations
Premium Account Fund Reorganization
The exchange of Premium Account Fund's assets for shares of Money Market
Portfolio and Money Market Portfolio's assumption of Premium Account Fund's
liabilities is intended to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a tax-free
reorganization under section 368(a)(1))C) of the Code. PW Corporation has
received an opinion of Kirkpatrick & Lockhart LLP, its counsel, and Premium
Account Fund has received an opinion of Sullivan & Cromwell, its counsel, with
respect to such Reorganization, each substantially to the effect that --
(1) Money Market Portfolio's acquisition of Premium Account Fund's assets
in exchange solely for Money Market Portfolio shares and Money Market
Portfolio's assumption of Premium Account Fund's liabilities, followed by
Premium Account Fund's distribution of those shares to its shareholders
constructively in exchange for their Premium Account Fund shares, will
constitute a "reorganization" within the meaning of section 368(a)(1)(C)
of the Code;
(2) No gain or loss will be recognized to Premium Account Fund on the
transfer to Money Market Portfolio of its assets in exchange solely for
Money Market Portfolio shares and Money Market Portfolio's assumption of
Premium Account Fund's liabilities or on the subsequent distribution of
those shares to Premium Account Fund's shareholders in constructive
exchange for their Premium Account Fund shares;
(3) No gain or loss will be recognized to Money Market Portfolio on its
receipt of the transferred assets in exchange solely for Money Market
Portfolio shares and its assumption of Premium Account Fund's liabilities;
19
<PAGE>
(4) Money Market Portfolio's basis for the transferred assets will be the
same as the basis thereof in Premium Account Fund's hands immediately prior
to the Reorganization, and Money Market Portfolio's holding period for
those assets will include Premium Account Fund's holding period therefor;
(5) A Premium Account Fund shareholder will recognize no gain or loss on
the constructive exchange of all its Premium Account Fund shares for Money
Market Portfolio shares pursuant to the Reorganization; and
(6) A Premium Account Fund shareholder's basis for the Money Market
Portfolio shares to be received by it in the Reorganization will be the
same as the basis for its Premium Account Fund shares to be constructively
surrendered in exchange for those Money Market Portfolio shares, and its
holding period for those Money Market Portfolio shares will include its
holding period for those Premium Account Fund shares, provided they are
held as capital assets by the shareholder on the Closing Date.
Each such opinion states that no opinion is expressed as to the effect of the
Reorganization on the Funds or any shareholder with respect to any asset as to
which any unrealized gain or loss is required to be recognized for federal
income tax purposes at the end of a taxable year (or on the termination or
transfer thereof) under a mark-to-market system of accounting.
Shareholders of Premium Account Fund should consult their tax advisers
regarding the effect, if any, of the Reorganization in light of their individual
circumstances. Because the foregoing discussion only relates to the federal
income tax consequences of the Reorganization, those shareholders also should
consult their tax advisers as to state and local tax consequences, if any, of
the Reorganization.
Cash Reserve Fund Reorganization
PW Corporation and Cash Reserve Fund believe that the Reorganization
involving that Fund will be treated for federal income tax purposes as a taxable
transaction, for the following reasons. PW Corporation discourages individual
retirement accounts and qualified retirement plans from purchasing Money Market
Portfolio shares. Therefore, the boards of directors of PW Corporation and Cash
Reserve Fund, in considering the Reorganization, each determined that that Fund
should encourage, and should assist, its shareholders that are individual
retirement accounts and qualified retirement plans to redeem or exchange their
Cash Reserve Fund shares before the Reorganization is effected. Accordingly,
most such shareholders already have redeemed or exchanged their Cash Reserve
Fund shares. Because of this redemption of a significant portion of Cash
Reserve Fund's shares in connection with the Reorganization, PW Corporation and
Cash Reserve Fund believe that the Reorganization will not qualify for federal
income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization and instead will be treated for
federal income tax purposes as a taxable sale of assets by Cash Reserve Fund to
Money Market Portfolio, followed by the dissolution of Cash Reserve Fund, with
the effect that --
(1) Money Market Portfolio's acquisition of Cash Reserve Fund's assets in
exchange for Money Market Portfolio shares and Money Market Portfolio's
assumption of Cash Reserve Fund's liabilities will constitute a taxable
sale of assets by Cash Reserve Fund to Money Market Portfolio;
(2) Cash Reserve Fund's distribution of the Money Market Portfolio shares
to its shareholders will be treated as a distribution in liquidation of
Cash Reserve Fund, and each Cash Reserve Fund shareholder may recognize
gain or loss on that distribution, depending on whether the shareholder's
tax basis for its Cash Reserve Fund shares is less than, is equal to or
exceeds the fair market value of the Money Market Portfolio shares
received;
(3) Gain or loss may be recognized to Cash Reserve Fund on the transfer to
Money Market Portfolio of its assets in exchange for Money Market Portfolio
shares and Money Market Portfolio's assumption of Cash Reserve Fund's
liabilities, depending on whether Cash Reserve Fund's aggregate tax basis
for the assets is less than, is equal to or exceeds the sum of the fair
market value of the Money Market Portfolio shares it receives and the
amount of the liabilities assumed by Money Market Portfolio;
20
<PAGE>
(4) Except to the extent the Money Market Portfolio shares appreciate or
depreciate in value in Cash Reserve Fund's hands prior to distribution
thereof to its shareholders, no gain or loss will be recognized to Cash
Reserve Fund on the subsequent distribution of the Money Market Portfolio
shares to Cash Reserve Fund's shareholders in constructive exchange for
their Cash Reserve Fund shares;
(5) No gain or loss will be recognized to Money Market Portfolio on its
receipt of the transferred assets in exchange for Money Market Portfolio
shares and its assumption of Cash Reserve Fund's liabilities;
(6) Money Market Portfolio's aggregate tax basis for the transferred assets
will be equal to the sum of the fair market value of the Money Market
Portfolio shares exchanged for the transferred assets plus the amount of
the liabilities assumed by Money Market Portfolio, and Money Market
Portfolio's holding period for those assets will begin on the day after
the Closing Date; and
(7) A Cash Reserve Fund shareholder's basis for the Money Market Portfolio
shares to be received in the Reorganization will be the same as the fair
market value of those shares on the date of distribution, and its holding
period for those shares will begin on the day after the Closing Date.
Shareholders of Cash Reserve Fund should consult their tax advisers
regarding the effect of the Reorganization in light of their individual
circumstances. Because the foregoing discussion only relates to the
federal income tax consequences of the Reorganization, those shareholders
also should consult their tax advisers as to state and local tax
consequences, if any, of the Reorganization.

Dear Shareholder,
During the six months ended September 30, 1995, the U.S. economy suffered
lackluster growth before picking up its pace in the third quarter of 1995.
Inflation, already low, subsided even further by the end of the period. The
housing sector finally responded to historically attractive mortgage rates with
robust activity in 1995's third quarter, after a dismal second quarter.
On July 6, 1995, the Federal Reserve Board cut the benchmark Federal Funds rate,
the rate banks charge each other for overnight borrowing, by 0.25%. This
decrease, the first in nearly three years, signalled that the Federal Reserve
Board believes that inflationary pressures have eased enough to accommodate an
adjustment in monetary policy from restrictive toward neutral.
In addition to concerns over the strength of the recovery, economic news
centered on debate over whether inflation was still likely to become a threat
and details of efforts in Washington to implement a plan to balance the budget.
While the outcome of the budgetary process remains in question, the perception
that the Federal Reserve is winning its war against inflation is widespread.
The bond market continued the rally that began in mid-November 1994. The U.S.
stock market has also continued to rally during 1995, pushing the Dow Jones
Industrial Average and S&P 500 Index to a string of new highs. The value of the
U.S. dollar declined for much of the period, but began to recover in August
1995. We expect the current slow-growth, low inflation environment to persist
through the last quarter of 1995.
PORTFOLIO REVIEW
As of September 30, 1995, the Fund offered a seven-day annualized yield of 5.09%
and an effective seven-day annualized yield of 5.22%. The Fund maintained a
weighted average maturity of 46 days as of September 30, 1995.
The board of trustees of PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Premium Account Fund has
approved a Plan of Reorganization and Termination ('Reorganization') for
submission to the Fund's shareholders, at a special meeting scheduled to be held
on February 13, 1996. If the proposed Reorganization is approved and
implemented, all of the Fund's assets will be acquired and its liabilities
assumed by PaineWebber RMA Money Market Portfolio ('RMA Money Market
Portfolio'). The Reorganization is a non-taxable event. As a result of the
Reorganization, the two funds' assets would be combined and each Fund
shareholder would, on the closing date of the transaction, receive a number of
shares of the RMA Money Market Portfolio having an aggregate value equal to the
value of the shareholder's holdings in the Fund. RMA Money Market Portfolio
is also managed by Susan Messina. The Portfolio seeks maximum current income
consistent with liquidity and conservation of capital. The Portfolio invests
in high-grade money market

ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Premium Account Fund (the 'Fund') was organized
as a Massachusetts business trust on January 13, 1982, and is registered with
the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended ('1940 Act'), as an open-end, diversified management investment
company.
Valuation and Accounting for Investments--Investments are valued at
amortized cost which approximates market value. Investment transactions are
recorded on trade date. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions
are calculated using the identified cost method. Interest income is recorded on
an accrual basis. Premiums are amortized and discounts are accreted as
adjustments to interest income and the identified cost of investments.
The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the Fund to meet
their obligations may be affected by economic developments, including those
particular to a specific industry or region.
Repurchase Agreements--The Fund's custodian takes possession of the
collateral pledged for investments in repurchase agreements. The underlying
collateral is valued daily on a mark-to-market basis to ensure that the value,
including accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. In the
event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right to
liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the
obligation. Under certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy
by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the
collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
Federal Tax Status--The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its
taxable income and to comply with the other requirements of the Internal Revenue
Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for
federal income taxes is required. In addition, by distributing during each
calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and
certain other amounts, if any, the Fund intends not to be subject to a federal
excise tax.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders--Dividends and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment
income and distributions from realized gains from investment transactions are
determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ
from generally accepted accounting principles. These 'book/tax' differences are
either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these
differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the
capital accounts based on their federal income tax classification. Net capital
gains, if any, will be distributed at least annually, but the Fund may make more
frequent distributions of such gains, if necessary, to maintain its net asset
value per share at $1.00 or to avoid income or excise taxes.

INVESTMENT ADVISER AND ADMINISTRATOR
At a special meeting of shareholders that took place on April 13, 1995,
shareholders approved the appointment of PaineWebber Incorporated
('PaineWebber') as investment adviser and administrator of the Fund and Mitchell
Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ('Mitchell Hutchins') as the Fund's sub-adviser
and sub-administrator. The Fund's investment adviser and administrator receives
compensation from the Fund accrued daily and paid monthly at the annual rate of
0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. PaineWebber (not the Fund) pays
Mitchell Hutchins a fee for sub-advisory and sub-administration services at the
annual rate of 20% of the fee received by PaineWebber from the Fund. At
September 30, 1995, the Fund owed PaineWebber $239,872 in investment advisory
and administration fees.
In compliance with applicable state securities laws, PaineWebber, the
Fund's investment adviser, will reimburse the Fund, if and to the extent that
the aggregate operating expenses in any fiscal year, exclusive of taxes,
interest, brokerage fees, distribution fees and extraordinary expenses, exceed
limitations imposed by various state regulations. Currently, the most
restrictive limitation is 2.5% on the first $30 million of average daily net
assets, 2.0% of the next $70 million and 1.5% of any excess over $100 million.
For the six months ended September 30, 1995, no reimbursements were required
pursuant to the above limitation.
DISTRIBUTION PLAN
PaineWebber serves as the exclusive distributor of the Fund's shares. For
its services, PaineWebber receives from the Fund a distribution fee, accrued
daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 0.12% of the Fund's average daily
net assets. At September 30, 1995, $57,569 was payable to PaineWebber for these
services.

Fund's variable rate securities on July 6, 1994 for an aggregate purchase price
of $32,244,799. The purchases were made at prices equal to the securities'
amortized cost plus accrued and unpaid interest. Since the purchases by KPAM
were made at prices above the securities' then current fair values, the Fund
recorded a capital contribution from KPAM in the amount of $1,664,186 or $0.002
per share.
PROPOSED REORGANIZATION
The Board of Trustees of the Fund have approved a Plan of Reorganization
and Termination (the 'Reorganization') for submission to its shareholders at a
special meeting scheduled to be held on February 13, 1996. If the proposed
Reorganization is approved and implemented, all of the Fund's assets will be
acquired and its liabilities assumed by PaineWebber RMA Money Market Fund, Inc.
('RMA Money Market Fund') in a tax-free reorganization. As a result of the
Reorganization, the two funds' assets would be combined and each Fund
shareholder would, on the closing date of the transaction, receive a number of
full and fractional shares of RMA Money Market Fund having an aggregate value
equal to the value of the shareholder's holdings in the Fund. There can be no
assurance that the Fund's shareholders will approve the Reorganization.

Notes To Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Basis of Presentation:
Subject to approval of the Plan of Reorganization by the shareholders of
PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Cash Reserve Fund ("PW/KP Cash Reserve") and
PaineWebber/Kidder Peabody Premium Account Fund ("PW/KP Premium Account"),
PaineWebber RMA Money Market Portfolio ("RMA Money Market") would acquire
the assets of either one or both of PW/KP Cash Reserve and PW/KP Premium
Account in exchange solely for the assumption by RMA Money Market of PW/KP
Cash Reserve and PW/KP Premium Account's liabilities and issuance of shares
of RMA Money Market that correspond, in aggregate, to the outstanding
shares of PW/KP Cash Reserve and PW/KP Premium Account. Shares of RMA Money
Market will be distributed to PW/KP Cash Reserve and Premium Account's
shareholders at $1.00 per share, and PW/KP Cash Reserve and PW/KP Premium
Account will be dissolved or terminated as soon as practicable thereafter.
The reduction of 28.4% of the net assets of PW/KP Cash Reserve at June 30,
1995 has been reflected on the Statement of Net Assets using IRA assets (as
a percentage of total assets) on November 13, 1995 (the date upon which
most of the individual retirement account and qualified retirement plan
shareholders were redeemed or exchanged out of PW/KP Cash Reserve). Each PW/KP
Cash Reserve and PW/KP Premium Account shareholder will receive the number of
full and fractional shares of RMA Money Market equal in value to such
shareholders' holdings in the corresponding shares of PW/KP Cash Reserve and
PW/KP Premium Account as of the closing date of the merger.
If the shareholders approve the Plan of Reorganization at a meeting expected
to be held on February 13, 1996, PW/KP Cash Reserve and PW/KP Premium Account
will be acquired by RMA Money Market in February 1996. The unaudited pro forma
combined financial statements reflect the financial position of RMA Money
Market, PW/KP Cash Reserve and PW/KP Premium Account at June 30, 1995 and the
combined results of operations of RMA Money Market, PW/KP Cash Reserve and
PW/KP Premium Account; and RMA Money Market and PW/KP Cash Reserve; and RMA
Money Market and PW/KP premium Account for the twelve months ended June 30,
1995. Certain expenses have been adjusted to reflect the expected combined
entity. Pro forma operating expenses include the actual expenses of the Funds
adjusted for certain items.
As a result of the Reorganization, expenses will be reduced due to duplication
of certain fixed expenses and the reduction in investment advisory and
administration fees due to the increased asset base. It is estimated that
there will be costs of approximately $850,000 associated with the merger of RMA
Money Market, PW/KP Cash Reserve and PW/KP Premium Account; or $654,000
associated with the merger of RMA Money Market and PW/KP Cash Reserve alone;
or $520,000 associated with the merger of RMA Money Market and PW/KP Premium
Account alone. These expenses will be charged to the Funds in proportion to
their respective net assets.
The pro forma combined financial statements are presented for the information
of the reader and may not necessarily be representative of what the actual
combined financial statements would have been had the Reorganization occurred
at June 30, 1995. The pro forma combined financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the historical financial statements of the constituent
Funds included in the statement of additional information.

PART C
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 15. Indemnification
Article Fourteenth of the Articles of Incorporation provides that the
directors and officers of the Registrant shall not be liable to the Registrant
or to any of its stockholders for monetary damages. Article Fourteenth also
provides that no amendment, alteration or repeal of the contents contained in
the preceding sentence or the adoption, alteration or amendment of any other
provision of the Articles or By-Laws inconsistent with Article Fourteenth shall
adversely affect any limitation of liability of any director or officer of the
Registrant with respect to any act or failure to act which occurred prior to
such amendment, alteration, repeal or adoption.
Section 10.01 of Article X of the Bylaws provides that the Registrant shall
indemnify its present and past directors, officers, employees and agents, and
any persons who are serving or have served at the request of the corporation as
a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust, or enterprise, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Section 10.02 of Article X of the Bylaws further provides that the
Registrant may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or
was a director, officer or employee of the Registrant, or is or was serving at
the request of the Registrant as a director, officer or employee of a
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any
liability asserted against him or out of his or her status as such whether or
not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify him or her against such
liability.
Section 9 of the Investment Advisory and Administration Contract provides
that PaineWebber shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law
or for any loss suffered by Registrant in connection with the matters to which
the Contract relates except for a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence of PaineWebber in the performance of its duties or
from its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the Contract.
Section 9 further provides that any person, even though also an officer,
partner, employee or agent of PaineWebber, who may be or become an officer,
director, employee or agent of Registrant shall be deemed, when rendering
services to the Registrant or acting with respect to any business of the
Registrant, to be rendering such service to or acting solely for the Registrant
and not as an officer, partner, employee, or agent or one under the control or
direction of PaineWebber even though paid by it.
Section 8 of the Sub-Advisory and Sub-Administration Contract provides that
Mitchell Hutchins will not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law
or for any loss suffered by PaineWebber or the Registrant or its shareholders in
connection with the performance of those Contracts, except a loss resulting from
willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the
performance of its duties or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations or
duties under the Contracts.
Section 9 of the Distribution Contract provides that the Registrant will
indemnify PaineWebber and its officers, directors or controlling persons against
all liabilities arising from any alleged untrue statement of material fact in
the Registration Statement or from alleged omission to state in the Registration
Statement a material fact required to be stated in it or necessary to make the
statements in it, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, except insofar as liability arises from untrue statements or
omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished by
PaineWebber to the Registrant for use in the Registration Statement; and
provided that this indemnity agreement shall not protect any such persons
against liabilities arising by reason of their bad faith, gross negligence or
willful misfeasance; and shall not inure to the benefit of any such persons
unless a court of competent jurisdiction or controlling precedent determines
that such result is not against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
of 1933. Section 9 of the Distribution Contract also provides that PaineWebber
agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Registrant, its officers and directors
free and harmless of any claims arising out of any alleged untrue statement or
any alleged omission of material fact contained in information furnished by
PaineWebber for use in the Registration Statement or
<PAGE>
arising out of an agreement between PaineWebber and any retail dealer, or
arising out of supplementary literature or advertising used by PaineWebber in
connection with the Contract.
Section 7 of the Service Contract provides that PaineWebber shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Registrant against all liabilities, except
those arising out of bad faith, gross negligence, willful misfeasance or
reckless disregard of its duties under the Contract.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 ("Act"), as amended, may be provided to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Registrant, pursuant to the foregoing provisions or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in connection with the successful defense
of any action, suit or proceeding or payment pursuant to any insurance policy)
is asserted against the Registrant by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will,
unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

APPENDIX A
AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION AND TERMINATION
THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION AND TERMINATION
("Agreement") is made as of November 30, 1995, between
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("PW
Corporation"), on behalf of PaineWebber RMA Money Market
Portfolio, a segregated portfolio of assets ("series") thereof
("Acquiring Fund"), and PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Premium
Account Fund, a Massachusetts business trust ("Target").
(Acquiring Fund and Target are sometimes referred to herein
individually as a "Fund" and collectively as the "Funds," and PW
Corporation and Target are sometimes referred to herein
individually as an "Investment Company" and collectively as the
"Investment Companies.")
This Agreement is intended to be, and is adopted as, a plan
of reorganization described in section 368(a)(1)(C) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code"). The
reorganization will involve the transfer to Acquiring Fund of
Target's assets solely in exchange for voting shares of common
stock in Acquiring Fund ("Acquiring Fund Shares") and the
assumption by Acquiring Fund of Target's liabilities, followed by
the constructive distribution of the Acquiring Fund Shares to the
holders of shares of common stock in Target ("Target Shares") in
exchange therefor, all upon the terms and conditions set forth
herein. The foregoing transactions are referred to herein as the
"Reorganization." All agreements, representations, actions, and
obligations described herein made or to be taken or undertaken by
Acquiring Fund are made and shall be taken or undertaken by PW
Corporation on its behalf.
In consideration of the mutual promises herein, the parties
covenant and agree as follows:
1. PLAN OF REORGANIZATION AND TERMINATION OF TARGET
1.1. Target agrees to assign, sell, convey, transfer, and
deliver all of its assets described in paragraph 1.2 ("Assets")
to Acquiring Fund. Acquiring Fund agrees in exchange therefor --
(a) to issue and deliver to Target the number of full
and fractional Acquiring Fund Shares determined by dividing
the net value of Target (computed as set forth in paragraph
2.1) by the net asset value (computed as set forth in
paragraph 2.2) ("NAV") of an Acquiring Fund Share; and
(b) to assume all of Target's liabilities described in
paragraph 1.3 ("Liabilities").
<PAGE>
Such transactions shall take place at the Closing (as defined in
paragraph 3.1).
1.2. The Assets shall include, without limitation, all
cash, cash equivalents, securities, receivables (including
interest and dividends receivable), claims and rights of action,
rights to register shares under applicable securities laws, books
and records, deferred and prepaid expenses shown as assets on
Target's books, and other property owned by Target at the
Effective Time (as defined in paragraph 3.1).
1.3. The Liabilities shall include (except as otherwise
provided herein) all of Target's liabilities, debts, obligations,
and duties of whatever kind or nature, whether absolute, accrued,
contingent, or otherwise, whether or not arising in the ordinary
course of business, whether or not determinable at the Effective
Time, and whether or not specifically referred to in this Agreement,
including without limitation Target's share of the expenses
described in paragraph 7.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Target agrees to use its best efforts to discharge all of its
known Liabilities prior to the Effective Time.
1.4. Before the Effective Time, Target shall declare and
pay to its shareholders a dividend in an amount large enough so
that it will have distributed substantially all (and in any event
not less than 90%) of its investment company taxable income
(computed without regard to any deduction for dividends paid) for
the current taxable year through the Effective Time.
1.5. At the Effective Time (or as soon thereafter as is
reasonably practicable), Target shall constructively distribute
the Acquiring Fund Shares received by it pursuant to paragraph
1.1 to Target's shareholders of record, determined as of the
Effective Time (collectively "Shareholders" and individually a
"Shareholder"), in exchange for their Target Shares. Such
distribution shall be accomplished by the Funds' transfer agent
("Transfer Agent") opening accounts on Acquiring Fund's share
transfer books in the Shareholders' names and transferring such
Acquiring Fund Shares thereto. Each Shareholder's account shall
be credited with the respective pro rata number of full and
fractional (rounded to the third decimal place) Acquiring Fund
Shares due that Shareholder. All outstanding Target Shares,
including any represented by certificates, shall simultaneously
be canceled on Target's share transfer records. Acquiring Fund
shall not issue certificates representing the Acquiring Fund
Shares in connection with the Reorganization.
1.6. As soon as reasonably practicable after distribution
of the Acquiring Fund Shares pursuant to paragraph 1.5, Target
shall be terminated and any further actions shall be taken in
connection therewith as required by applicable law.
1.7. Any reporting responsibility of Target to a public
authority is and shall remain its responsibility up to and
including the date on which it is terminated.
A-2
<PAGE>
1.8. Any transfer taxes payable upon issuance of Acquiring
Fund Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder on
Target's books of the Target Shares constructively exchanged
therefor shall be paid by the person to whom such Acquiring Fund
Shares are to be issued, as a condition of such transfer.
2. VALUATION
2.1. For purposes of paragraph 1.1(a), Target's net value
shall be (a) the value of the Assets computed as of 12:00 noon on
the date of the Closing ("Valuation Time"), using the valuation
procedures set forth in Target's then-current prospectus and
statement of additional information less (b) the amount of the
Liabilities as of the Valuation Time.
2.2. For purposes of paragraph 1.1(a), the NAV of an
Acquiring Fund Share shall be computed as of the Valuation Time,
using the valuation procedures set forth in Acquiring Fund's
then-current prospectus and statement of additional information.
2.3. All computations pursuant to paragraphs 2.1 and 2.2
shall be made by or under the direction of Mitchell Hutchins
Asset Management Inc.
2.4. If the difference between the NAVs per share of the
Funds equals or exceeds $.0025 at the Valuation Time, or such
earlier or later day and time as the parties may agree and set
forth in writing signed by their duly authorized officers, as
computed by using the market values of the Funds' assets in
accordance with the policies and procedures established by the
Funds (or as otherwise mutually determined by the Investment
Companies' boards of directors or trustees), either Fund may
postpone the Valuation Time until such time as such per share NAV
difference is less than $.0025.
3. CLOSING AND EFFECTIVE TIME
3.1. The Reorganization, together with related acts
necessary to consummate the same ("Closing"), shall occur at the
Funds' principal office on February 20, 1996, or at such other
place and/or on such other date as the parties may agree. All
acts taking place at the Closing shall be deemed to take place
simultaneously as of 12:00 noon on the date thereof or at such
other time as the parties may agree ("Effective Time"). If,
immediately before the Valuation Time, (a) the New York Stock
Exchange, Inc. ("NYSE") is closed to trading or trading thereon
is restricted or (b) trading or the reporting of trading on the
NYSE or elsewhere is disrupted, so that accurate appraisal of the
net value of Target and the NAV per Acquiring Fund Share is
impracticable, the Effective Time shall be postponed until the
first business day after the day when such trading shall have
been fully resumed and such reporting shall have been restored.
A-3
<PAGE>
3.2. Target shall deliver to PW Corporation at the Closing
a schedule of the Assets as of the Effective Time, which shall
set forth for all portfolio securities included therein their
adjusted tax basis and holding period by lot. Target's custodian
shall deliver at the Closing a certificate of an authorized
officer stating that (a) the Assets held by the custodian will be
transferred to Acquiring Fund at the Effective Time and (b) all
necessary taxes in conjunction with the delivery of the Assets,
including all applicable federal and state stock transfer stamps,
if any, have been paid or provision for payment has been made.
3.3. Target shall deliver to PW Corporation at the Closing
a list of the names and addresses of the Shareholders and the
number of outstanding Target Shares owned by each Shareholder,
all as of the Effective Time, certified by the Secretary or
Assistant Secretary of Target. The Transfer Agent shall deliver
at the Closing a certificate as to the opening on Acquiring
Fund's share transfer books of accounts in the Shareholders'
names. PW Corporation shall issue and deliver a confirmation to
Target evidencing the Acquiring Fund Shares to be credited to
Target at the Effective Time or provide evidence satisfactory to
Target that such Acquiring Fund Shares have been credited to
Target's account on Acquiring Fund's books. At the Closing, each
party shall deliver to the other such bills of sale, checks,
assignments, stock certificates, receipts, or other documents as
the other party or its counsel may reasonably request.
3.4. Each Investment Company shall deliver to the other at
the Closing a certificate executed in its name by its President
or a Vice President in form and substance satisfactory to the
recipient and dated the Effective Time, to the effect that the
representations and warranties it made in this Agreement are true
and correct at the Effective Time except as they may be affected
by the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
under which such statements were made, not misleading;
provided that the foregoing shall not apply to statements in
or omissions from the Proxy Statement made in reliance on
and in conformity with information furnished by Target for
use therein;
4.2.12. Acquiring Fund is a "fund" as defined in
section 851(h)(2) of the Code; it qualified for treatment as
a RIC for each past taxable year since it commenced
operations and will continue to meet all the requirements
for such qualification for its current taxable year;
Acquiring Fund intends to continue to meet all such
requirements for the next taxable year; and it has no
earnings and profits accumulated in any taxable year in
which the provisions of Subchapter M of the Code did not
apply to it;
4.2.13. Acquiring Fund has no plan or intention to
issue additional Acquiring Fund Shares following the
Reorganization except for shares issued in the ordinary
course of its business as a series of an open-end investment
company; nor does Acquiring Fund have any plan or intention
to redeem or otherwise reacquire any Acquiring Fund Shares
issued to the Shareholders pursuant to the Reorganization,
other than through redemptions arising in the ordinary
course of that business;
4.2.14. Acquiring Fund (a) will actively continue
Target's business in substantially the same manner that
Target conducted that business immediately before the
Reorganization, (b) has no plan or intention to sell or
otherwise dispose of any of the Assets, except for
dispositions made in the ordinary course of that business
and dispositions necessary to maintain its status as a RIC,
and (c) expects to retain substantially all the Assets in
the same form as it receives them in the Reorganization,
unless and until subsequent investment circumstances suggest
the desirability of change or it becomes necessary to make
dispositions thereof to maintain such status;
4.2.15. There is no plan or intention for Acquiring
Fund to be dissolved or merged into another corporation or
business trust or any "fund" thereof (within the meaning of
section 851(h)(2) of the Code) following the Reorganization;
4.2.16. Immediately after the Reorganization, (a) not
more than 25% of the value of Acquiring Fund's total assets
(excluding cash, cash items, and U.S. government securities)
will be invested in the stock and securities of any one
issuer
A-9
<PAGE>
and (b) not more than 50% of the value of such assets
will be invested in the stock and securities of five or
fewer issuers; and
4.2.17. Acquiring Fund does not own, directly or
indirectly, nor at the Effective Time will it own, directly or
indirectly, nor has it owned, directly or indirectly, at any
time during the past five years, any shares of Target.
4.3. Each Fund represents and warrants as follows:
4.3.1. The fair market value of the Acquiring Fund
Shares, when received by the Shareholders, will be
approximately equal to the fair market value of their Target
Shares constructively surrendered in exchange therefor;
4.3.2. Its management (a) is unaware of any plan or
intention of Shareholders to redeem or otherwise dispose of
any portion of the Acquiring Fund Shares to be received by
them in the Reorganization and (b) does not anticipate
dispositions of those Acquiring Fund Shares at the time of or
soon after the Reorganization to exceed the usual rate and
frequency of dispositions of shares of Target as an open-end
investment company. Consequently, its management expects
that the percentage of Shareholder interests, if any, that
will be disposed of as a result of or at the time of the
Reorganization will be de minimis. Nor does its management
anticipate that there will be extraordinary redemptions of
Acquiring Fund Shares immediately following the
Reorganization;
4.3.3. The Shareholders will pay their own expenses,
if any, incurred in connection with the Reorganization;
4.3.4. Immediately following consummation of the
Reorganization, Acquiring Fund will hold substantially the same
assets and be subject to substantially the same liabilities
that Target held or was subject to immediately prior
thereto, plus any liabilities and expenses of the parties
incurred in connection with the Reorganization;
4.3.5. The fair market value on a going concern basis
of the Assets will equal or exceed the Liabilities to be
assumed by Acquiring Fund and those to which the Assets are
subject;
4.3.6. There is no intercompany indebtedness between
the Funds that was issued or acquired, or will be settled,
at a discount;
4.3.7. Pursuant to the Reorganization, Target will
transfer to Acquiring Fund, and Acquiring Fund will acquire,
at least 90% of the fair market value of the net assets, and
at least 70% of the fair market value of the gross assets,
held by Target immediately before the Reorganization. For
the purposes of this representation, any amounts used by
Target to pay its Reorganization expenses and redemptions
and distribu-
A-10
<PAGE>
tions made by it immediately before the Reorganization (except
for (a) distributions made to conform to its policy of
distributing all or substantially all of its income and gains
to avoid the obligation to pay federal income tax and/or the
excise tax under section 4982 of the Code and (b) redemptions
not made as part of the Reorganization) will be included as assets
thereof held immediately before the Reorganization;
4.3.8. None of the compensation received by any
Shareholder who is an employee of Target will be separate
consideration for, or allocable to, any of the Target Shares
held by such Shareholder-employee; none of the Acquiring
Fund Shares received by any such Shareholder-employee will
be separate consideration for, or allocable to, any
employment agreement; and the consideration paid to any such
Shareholder-employee will be for services actually rendered
and will be commensurate with amounts paid to third parties
bargaining at arm's-length for similar services; and
4.3.9. Immediately after the Reorganization, the
Shareholders will not own shares constituting "control" of
Acquiring Fund within the meaning of section 304(c) of the
Code.
5. COVENANTS
5.1. Each Fund covenants to operate its respective business
in the ordinary course between the date hereof and the Closing,
it being understood that (a) such ordinary course will include
declaring and paying customary dividends and other distributions
and such changes in operations as are contemplated by each Fund's
normal business activities and (b) each Fund will retain
exclusive control of the composition of its portfolio until the
Closing; provided that Target shall not dispose of more than an
insignificant portion of its historic business assets during such
period without Acquiring Fund's prior consent.
5.2. Target covenants to call a shareholders' meeting to
consider and act upon this Agreement and to take all other action
necessary to obtain approval of the transactions contemplated
hereby.
5.3. Target covenants that the Acquiring Fund Shares to be
delivered hereunder are not being acquired for the purpose of
making any distribution thereof, other than in accordance with

and substance satisfactory to it, and Target shall have received an
opinion of Sullivan & Cromwell, its counsel, addressed to and in
form and substance satisfactory to it, each as to the federal
income tax consequences mentioned below (each a "Tax Opinion").
In rendering its Tax Opinion, each such counsel may rely as to
factual matters, exclusively and without independent
verification, on the representations made in this Agreement (or
in separate letters addressed to such counsel) and the
certificates delivered pursuant to paragraph 3.4. Each Tax
Opinion shall be substantially to the effect that, based on the
facts and assumptions stated therein, for federal income tax
purposes:
6.6.1. Acquiring Fund's acquisition of the Assets in
exchange solely for Acquiring Fund Shares and Acquiring
Fund's assumption of the Liabilities, followed by Target's
distribution of those shares to the Shareholders
constructively in exchange for the Shareholders' Target
Shares, will constitute a reorganization within the meaning
of section 368(a)(1)(C) of the Code, and each Fund will be
"a party to a reorganization" within the meaning of section
368(b) of the Code;
6.6.2. No gain or loss will be recognized to Target on
the transfer to Acquiring Fund of the Assets in exchange
solely for Acquiring Fund Shares and Acquiring Fund's
assumption of the Liabilities or on the subsequent
distribution of those shares to the Shareholders in
constructive exchange for their Target Shares;
6.6.3. No gain or loss will be recognized to Acquiring
Fund on its receipt of the Assets in exchange solely for
Acquiring Fund Shares and its assumption of the Liabilities;
6.6.4. Acquiring Fund's basis for the Assets will be
the same as the basis thereof in Target's hands immediately
before the Reorganization, and Acquiring Fund's holding
period for the Assets will include Target's holding period
therefor;
6.6.5. A Shareholder will recognize no gain or loss on
the constructive exchange of all its Target Shares solely
for Acquiring Fund Shares pursuant to the Reorganization;
and
6.6.6. A Shareholder's basis for the Acquiring Fund
Shares to be received by it in the Reorganization will be
the same as the basis for its Target Shares to be
constructively surrendered in exchange for those Acquiring
Fund Shares, and its holding period for those Acquiring Fund
Shares will include its holding period for those Target
Shares, provided they are held as capital assets by the
Shareholder at the Effective Time.
Notwithstanding subparagraphs 6.6.2 and 6.6.4, each Tax Opinion
may state that no opinion is expressed as to the effect of the
Reorganization on the Funds or any Shareholder with respect to
any asset
A-16
<PAGE>
as to which any unrealized gain or loss is required to be
recognized for federal income tax purposes at the end of a
taxable year (or on the termination or transfer thereof) under a
mark-to-market system of accounting.
At any time before the Closing, (a) Acquiring Fund may waive
any of the foregoing conditions if, in the judgment of PW
Corporation's board of directors, such waiver will not have a
material adverse effect on its shareholders' interests, and
(b) Target may waive any of the foregoing conditions if, in the
judgment of its board of trustees, such waiver will not have a
material adverse effect on the Shareholders' interests.
7. BROKERAGE FEES AND EXPENSES
7.1. Each Investment Company represents and warrants to the
other that there are no brokers or finders entitled to receive
any payments in connection with the transactions provided for
herein.
7.2. Except as otherwise provided herein, all expenses
incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement (whether or not they are consummated) will be borne by
the Funds proportionately, as follows: each such expense will be
borne by the Funds in proportion to their respective net assets
as of the close of business on the last business day of the month
in which such expense was incurred. Such expenses include:
(a) expenses incurred in connection with entering into and
carrying out the provisions of this Agreement; (b) expenses
associated with the preparation and filing of the Registration
Statement; (c) registration or qualification fees and expenses of
preparing and filing such forms as are necessary under applicable
state securities laws to qualify the Acquiring Fund Shares to be
issued in connection herewith in each state in which Target's
shareholders are resident as of the date of the mailing of the
Proxy Statement to such shareholders; (d) printing and postage
expenses; (e) legal and accounting fees; and (f) solicitation
costs.
8. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; SURVIVAL
Neither party has made any representation, warranty, or
covenant not set forth herein, and this Agreement constitutes the
entire agreement between the parties. The representations,
warranties, and covenants contained herein or in any document
delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive
the Closing.
9. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT
This Agreement may be terminated at any time at or prior to
the Effective Time, whether before or after approval by Target's
shareholders:
A-17
<PAGE>
9.1. By either Fund (a) in the event of the other Fund's
material breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant
contained herein to be performed at or prior to the Effective
Time, (b) if a condition to its obligations has not been met and
it reasonably appears that such condition will not or cannot be
met, or (c) if the Closing has not occurred on or before June 30,

10. AMENDMENT
This Agreement may be amended, modified, or supplemented at
any time, notwithstanding approval thereof by Target's shareholders,
in such manner as may be mutually agreed upon in writing by
the parties; provided that following such approval no such amendment
shall have a material adverse effect on the Shareholders' interests.
11. MISCELLANEOUS
11.1. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of Maryland; provided
that, in the case of any conflict between such laws and the federal
securities laws, the latter shall govern.
11.2. Nothing expressed or implied herein is intended or
shall be construed to confer upon or give any person, firm,
trust, or corporation other than the parties and their respective
successors and assigns any rights or remedies under or by reason
of this Agreement.
11.3. The parties acknowledge that Target is a Business
Trust. Notice is hereby given that this instrument is executed
on behalf of Target's trustees solely in their capacity as trustees,
and not individually, and that Target's obligations under this
instrument are not binding on or enforceable against any of
its trustees, officers, or shareholders, but are only binding on
and enforceable against Target's assets and property. Acquiring
Fund agrees that, in asserting any rights or claims under this
Agreement, it shall look only to Target's assets and property in
settlement of such rights or claims and not to such trustees or
shareholders.

APPENDIX B
AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION AND DISSOLUTION
THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION AND DISSOLUTION
("Agreement") is made as of November 30, 1995, between
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("PW
Corporation"), on behalf of PaineWebber RMA Money Market
Portfolio, a segregated portfolio of assets ("series") thereof
("Acquiring Fund"), and PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Cash Reserve
Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("Target"). (Acquiring Fund
and Target are sometimes referred to herein individually as a
"Fund" and collectively as the "Funds," and PW Corporation and
Target are sometimes referred to herein individually as an
"Investment Company" and collectively as the "Investment
Companies.")
The transactions provided for herein (collectively
"Reorganization") involve the transfer to Acquiring Fund of
Target's assets solely in exchange for voting shares of common
stock in Acquiring Fund ("Acquiring Fund Shares") and the assumption
by Acquiring Fund of Target's liabilities, followed by the
constructive distribution of the Acquiring Fund Shares to the
holders of shares of common stock in Target ("Target Shares") in
exchange therefor. All agreements, representations, actions, and
obligations described herein made or to be taken or undertaken by
Acquiring Fund are made and shall be taken or undertaken by PW
Corporation on its behalf.
In consideration of the mutual promises herein, the parties
covenant and agree as follows:
1. PLAN OF REORGANIZATION AND DISSOLUTION OF TARGET
1.1. Target agrees to assign, sell, convey, transfer, and
deliver all of its assets described in paragraph 1.2 ("Assets")
to Acquiring Fund. Acquiring Fund agrees in exchange therefor --
(a) to issue and deliver to Target the number of full
and fractional Acquiring Fund Shares determined by dividing
the net value of Target (computed as set forth in paragraph
2.1) by the net asset value (computed as set forth in
paragraph 2.2) ("NAV") of an Acquiring Fund Share; and
(b) to assume all of Target's liabilities described in
paragraph 1.3 ("Liabilities").
B-1
<PAGE>
Such transactions shall take place at the Closing (as defined in
paragraph 3.1).
1.2. The Assets shall include, without limitation, all
cash, cash equivalents, securities, receivables (including
interest and dividends receivable), claims and rights of action,
rights to register shares under applicable securities laws, books
and records, deferred and prepaid expenses shown as assets on
Target's books, and other property owned by Target at the
Effective Time (as defined in paragraph 3.1). After the Investment
Companies' boards of directors resolved to engage in the Reorganization,
Target encouraged its individual retirement account and qualified
retirement plan shareholders to redeem their Target Shares or exchange their
Target Shares for shares in another investment company, and prior to the date
hereof substantially all of them did so; accordingly, the Assets do not
include any amount paid to those shareholders as redemption proceeds.
1.3. The Liabilities shall include (except as otherwise
provided herein) all of Target's liabilities, debts, obligations,
and duties of whatever kind or nature, whether absolute, accrued,
contingent, or otherwise, whether or not arising in the ordinary
course of business, whether or not determinable at the Effective
Time, and whether or not specifically referred to in this Agreement,
including without limitation Target's share of the expenses
described in paragraph 7.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Target agrees to use its best efforts to discharge all of its
known Liabilities prior to the Effective Time.
1.4. Before the Effective Time, Target shall declare and
pay to its shareholders a dividend in an amount large enough so
that it will have distributed substantially all (and in any event
not less than 90%) of its investment company taxable income
(computed without regard to any deduction for dividends paid) for
the current taxable year through the Effective Time.
1.5. At the Effective Time (or as soon thereafter as is
reasonably practicable), Target shall constructively distribute
the Acquiring Fund Shares received by it pursuant to paragraph
1.1 to Target's shareholders of record, determined as of the
Effective Time (collectively "Shareholders" and individually a
"Shareholder"), in exchange for their Target Shares. Such
distribution shall be accomplished by the Funds' transfer agent
("Transfer Agent") opening accounts on Acquiring Fund's share
transfer books in the Shareholders' names and transferring such
Acquiring Fund Shares thereto. Each Shareholder's account shall
be credited with the respective pro rata number of full and
fractional (rounded to the third decimal place) Acquiring Fund
Shares due that Shareholder. All outstanding Target Shares,
including any represented by certificates, shall simultaneously
be canceled on Target's share transfer records. Acquiring Fund
shall not issue certificates representing the Acquiring Fund
Shares in connection with the Reorganization.
1.6. As soon as reasonably practicable after distribution
of the Acquiring Fund Shares pursuant to paragraph 1.6, Target
shall be dissolved and any further actions shall be taken in
connection therewith as required by applicable law (including
Target's filing
B-2
<PAGE>
of Articles of Transfer, effective as of the Effective Time, with
the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland
("Department")).
1.7. Any reporting responsibility of Target to a public
authority is and shall remain its responsibility up to and
including the date on which it is dissolved.
1.8. Any transfer taxes payable upon issuance of Acquiring
Fund Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder on
Target's books of the Target Shares constructively exchanged
therefor shall be paid by the person to whom such Acquiring Fund
Shares are to be issued, as a condition of such transfer.
2. VALUATION
2.1. For purposes of paragraph 1.1(a), Target's net value
shall be (a) the value of the Assets computed as of 12:00 noon on
the date of the Closing ("Valuation Time"), using the valuation
procedures set forth in Target's then-current prospectus and
statement of additional information less (b) the amount of the
Liabilities as of the Valuation Time.
2.2. For purposes of paragraph 1.1(a), the NAV of an
Acquiring Fund Share shall be computed as of the Valuation Time,
using the valuation procedures set forth in Acquiring Fund's
then-current prospectus and statement of additional information.
2.3. All computations pursuant to paragraphs 2.1 and 2.2
shall be made by or under the direction of Mitchell Hutchins
Asset Management Inc. ("Mitchell Hutchins").
3. CLOSING AND EFFECTIVE TIME
3.1. The Reorganization, together with related acts
necessary to consummate the same ("Closing"), shall occur at the
Funds' principal office on February 20, 1996, or at such other
place and/or on such other date as the parties may agree. All
acts taking place at the Closing shall be deemed to take place
simultaneously as of 12:00 noon on the date thereof or at such
other time as the parties may agree ("Effective Time"). If,
immediately before the Valuation Time, (a) the New York Stock
Exchange, Inc. ("NYSE") is closed to trading or trading thereon
is restricted or (b) trading or the reporting of trading on the
NYSE or elsewhere is disrupted, so that accurate appraisal of the
net value of Target and the NAV per Acquiring Fund Share is
impracticable, the Effective Time shall be postponed until the
first business day after the day when such trading shall have
been fully resumed and such reporting shall have been restored.
3.2. Target shall deliver to PW Corporation at the Closing
a schedule of the Assets as of the Effective Time, which shall
set forth for all portfolio securities included therein their
adjusted
B-3
<PAGE>
tax basis and holding period by lot. Target's custodian
shall deliver at the Closing a certificate of an authorized
officer stating that (a) the Assets held by the custodian will be
transferred to Acquiring Fund at the Effective Time and (b) all
necessary taxes in conjunction with the delivery of the Assets,
including all applicable federal and state stock transfer stamps,
if any, have been paid or provision for payment has been made.
3.3. Target shall deliver to PW Corporation at the Closing
a list of the names and addresses of the Shareholders and the
number of outstanding Target Shares owned by each Shareholder,
all as of the Effective Time, certified by the Secretary or
Assistant Secretary of Target. The Transfer Agent shall deliver
at the Closing a certificate as to the opening on Acquiring
Fund's share transfer books of accounts in the Shareholders'
names. PW Corporation shall issue and deliver a confirmation to
Target evidencing the Acquiring Fund Shares to be credited to
Target at the Effective Time or provide evidence satisfactory to
Target that such Acquiring Fund Shares have been credited to
Target's account on Acquiring Fund's books. At the Closing, each
party shall deliver to the other such bills of sale, checks,
assignments, stock certificates, receipts, or other documents as
the other party or its counsel may reasonably request.
3.4. Each Investment Company shall deliver to the other at
the Closing a certificate executed in its name by its President
or a Vice President in form and substance satisfactory to the
recipient and dated the Effective Time, to the effect that the
representations and warranties it made in this Agreement are true
and correct at the Effective Time except as they may be affected
by the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

4.1. Target represents and warrants as follows:

(2) that Target, the Shareholders, and Acquiring Fund will
recognize no gain or loss upon the Reorganization, and
(3) regarding the basis and holding period after the
Reorganization of the transferred assets and the shares of Acquiring
Fund issued pursuant thereto.
In rendering this opinion, we have examined (1) Target's currently
effective prospectus and statement of additional information ("SAI"), both dated
August 1, 1995, and Acquiring Fund's currently effective prospectus and SAI,
both dated August 29, 1995, (2) the Proxy, (3) the Plan, and (4) such other
documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes hereof. As
to various matters of fact material to this opinion, we have relied, exclusively
and without independent verification, on statements of responsible officers of
each Investment Company and the representations described below and made in the
Plan (as contemplated in paragraph 6.6 thereof) (collectively
"Representations").
FACTS
PW Corporation is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of
Maryland pursuant to Articles of Incorporation dated July 2, 1982; Acquiring
Fund commenced operations as a series thereof on October 4, 1982. Target is an
unincorporated voluntary association with transferable shares formed as a
business trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (commonly
referred to as a "Massachusetts business trust") pursuant to a Declaration of
Trust dated January 13, 1982. Each Investment Company is registered with the
SEC as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 ("1940 Act"). PaineWebber Incorporated ("PaineWebber") serves as
each Fund's investment adviser and administrator and is the distributor of each
Fund's shares. Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ("Mitchell Hutchins"), a
wholly owned subsidiary of PaineWebber, serves as sub-adviser and
sub-administrator to each Fund.
The Reorganization, together with all related acts necessary to consummate
the same ("Closing"), shall occur as of 12:00 noon on February 20, 1996 (or on
such other date or at such other time as the parties may agree) ("Effective
Time"). Before the Effective Time, Target shall declare and pay to its
shareholders a dividend in an amount large enough so that it will have
distributed substantially all (and in any event not less than 90%) of its
investment company taxable income (computed without regard to any deduction for
dividends paid) for the current taxable year through the Effective Time.
The Funds' investment objectives, which are substantially identical, and
investment policies, which are generally similar, are described in the Proxy and
their respective prospectuses and SAIs. Although there are differences in those
policies, it is not expected that Acquiring Fund will revise its investment
policies following the Reorganization to reflect Target's. Because Target is
permitted to invest in securities having characteristics different from those
permitted for Acquiring Fund, certain of the securities currently held by Target
may need to be sold rather than transferred to Acquiring Fund. If the
Reorganization is approved, Target will sell prior to the Effective Time any
assets that are inconsistent with Acquiring Fund's investment
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc.

policies, and the proceeds thereof will be held in temporary investments or
reinvested in assets that qualify to be held by Acquiring Fund.
The Reorganization was recommended by Mitchell Hutchins to each Investment
Company's board of directors or board of trustees (each a "board") at meetings
thereof held on July 20, 1995. In considering the Reorganization, each board
made an extensive inquiry into a number of factors (which are described in the
Proxy, together with Mitchell Hutchins's advice and recommendations to the
boards and the purposes of the Reorganization). Pursuant thereto, each board
approved the Plan, subject to approval of Target's shareholders. In doing so,
each board, including a majority of its members who are not "interested persons"
(as that term is defined in the 1940 Act) of either Investment Company,
determined that the Reorganization is in its Fund's best interests, that the
terms of the Reorganization are fair and reasonable, and that its Fund's
shareholders' interests will not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization.
The Plan, which specifies that it is intended to be, and is adopted as, a
plan of a reorganization described in section 368(a)(1)(C), provides in relevant
part for the following:
(1) The acquisition by Acquiring Fund of all cash, cash equivalents,
securities, receivables (including interest and dividends receivable), claims
and rights of action, rights to register shares under applicable securities
laws, books and records, deferred and prepaid expenses shown as assets on
Target's books, and other property owned by Target at the Effective Time
(collectively "Assets") in exchange solely for
(a) the number of full and fractional shares of common stock in Acquiring
Fund ("Acquiring Fund Shares") determined by dividing the net value of Target by
the net asset value ("NAV") of an Acquiring Fund Share, and
(b) Acquiring Fund's assumption of all of Target's liabilities, debts,
obligations, and duties of whatever kind or nature, whether absolute, accrued,
contingent, or otherwise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of
business, whether or not determinable at the Effective Time, and whether or not
specifically referred to in the Plan, including without limitation Target's
share of the expenses incurred in connection with the Reorganization
(collectively "Liabilities") (Target having agreed in the Plan to use its best
efforts to discharge all of its known liabilities and obligations prior to the
Effective Time),
(2) The constructive distribution of such Acquiring Fund Shares to the
Shareholders, and
(3) The subsequent termination of Target.
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc.

The distribution described in (2) will be accomplished by transferring the
Acquiring Fund Shares then credited to Target's account on Acquiring Fund's
share transfer records to open accounts on those records established in the
Shareholders' names, with each Shareholder's account being credited with the
respective pro rata number of full and fractional (rounded to three decimal
places) Acquiring Fund Shares due such Shareholder. All outstanding Target
Shares, including any represented by certificates, simultaneously will be
canceled on Target's share transfer records.
REPRESENTATIONS
The representations enumerated below have been made to us by appropriate
officers of each Investment Company.
Each of PW Corporation, on behalf of Acquiring Fund, and Target has
represented and warranted to us as follows:
1. The fair market value of the Acquiring Fund Shares, when received by the
Shareholders, will be approximately equal to the fair market value of their
Target Shares constructively surrendered in exchange therefor;
2. Its management (a) is unaware of any plan or intention of Shareholders
to redeem or otherwise dispose of any portion of the Acquiring Fund Shares to be
received by them in the Reorganization and (b) does not anticipate dispositions
of those Acquiring Fund Shares at the time of or soon after the Reorganization
to exceed the usual rate and frequency of dispositions of shares of Target as an
open-end investment company. Consequently, its management expects that the
percentage of Shareholder interests, if any, that will be disposed of as a
result of or at the time of the Reorganization will be de minimis. Nor does its
management anticipate that there will be extraordinary redemptions of Acquiring
Fund Shares immediately following the Reorganization;
3. The Shareholders will pay their own expenses, if any, incurred in
connection with the Reorganization;
4. Immediately following consummation of the Reorganization, Acquiring Fund
will hold substantially the same assets and be subject to substantially the same
liabilities that Target held or was subject to immediately prior thereto, plus
any liabilities and expenses of the parties incurred in connection with the
Reorganization;
5. The fair market value on a going concern basis of the Assets will equal
or exceed the Liabilities to be assumed by Acquiring Fund and those to which the
Assets are subject;
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc.
December 4, 1995
Page 5
6. There is no intercompany indebtedness between the Funds that was issued
or acquired, or will be settled, at a discount;
7. Pursuant to the Reorganization, Target will transfer to Acquiring Fund,
and Acquiring Fund will acquire, at least 90% of the fair market value of the
net assets, and at least 70% of the fair market value of the gross assets, held
by Target immediately before the Reorganization. For the purposes of this
representation, any amounts used by Target to pay its Reorganization expenses
and redemptions and distributions made by it immediately before the
Reorganization (except for (a) distributions made to conform to its policy of
distributing all or substantially all of its income and gains to avoid the
obligation to pay federal income tax and/or the excise tax under section 4982
and (b) redemptions not made as part of the Reorganization) will be included
as assets thereof held immediately before the Reorganization;
8. None of the compensation received by any Shareholder who is an employee
of Target will be separate consideration for, or allocable to, any of the Target
Shares held by such Shareholder-employee; none of the Acquiring Fund Shares
received by any such Shareholder-employee will be separate consideration for, or
allocable to, any employment agreement; and the consideration paid to any such
Shareholder-employee will be for services actually rendered and will be
commensurate with amounts paid to third parties bargaining at arm's-length for
similar services; and
9. Immediately after the Reorganization, the Shareholders will not own
shares constituting "control" of Acquiring Fund within the meaning of section
304(c).
Target also has represented and warranted to us as follows:
1. The Liabilities were incurred by Target in the ordinary course of its
business;
2. Target qualified for treatment as a regulated investment company ("RIC")
under Subchapter M of the Code ("Subchapter M") for each past taxable year since
it commenced operations and will continue to meet all the requirements for such
qualification for its current taxable year; and it has no earnings and profits
accumulated in any taxable year in which the provisions of Subchapter M did not
apply to it;
3. Target is not under the jurisdiction of a court in a proceeding under
Title 11 of the United States Code or similar case within the meaning of section
368(a)(3)(A);
4. Not more than 25% of the value of Target's total assets (excluding cash,
cash items, and U.S. government securities) is invested in the stock and
securities of any one issuer, and not more than 50% of the value of such assets
is invested in the stock and securities of five or fewer issuers; and
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc.
December 4, 1995
Page 6
5. Target will be terminated as soon as reasonably practicable after the
Reorganization, but in all events within six months after the Effective Time.
PW Corporation also has represented and warranted to us on behalf of
Acquiring Fund as follows:
1. Acquiring Fund is a "fund" as defined in section 851(h)(2); it qualified
for treatment as a RIC under Subchapter M for each past taxable year since it
commenced operations and will continue to meet all the requirements for such
qualification for its current taxable year; Acquiring Fund intends to continue
to meet all such requirements for the next taxable year; and it has no earnings
and profits accumulated in any taxable year in which the provisions of
Subchapter M did not apply to it;
2. Acquiring Fund has no plan or intention to issue additional Acquiring
Fund Shares following the Reorganization except for shares issued in the
ordinary course of its business as a series of an open-end investment company;
nor does Acquiring Fund have any plan or intention to redeem or otherwise
reacquire any Acquiring Fund Shares issued to the Shareholders pursuant to the
Reorganization, other than through redemptions arising in the ordinary course of
that business;
3. Acquiring Fund (a) will actively continue Target's business in
substantially the same manner that Target conducted that business immediately
before the Reorganization, (b) has no plan or intention to sell or otherwise
dispose of any of the Assets, except for dispositions made in the ordinary
course of that business and dispositions necessary to maintain its status as a
RIC under Subchapter M, and (c) expects to retain substantially all the Assets
in the same form as it receives them in the Reorganization, unless and until
subsequent investment circumstances suggest the desirability of change or it
becomes necessary to make dispositions thereof to maintain such status;
4. There is no plan or intention for Acquiring Fund to be dissolved or
merged into another corporation or business trust or any "fund" thereof (within
the meaning of section 851(h)(2)) following the Reorganization;
5. Immediately after the Reorganization, (a) not more than 25% of the value
of Acquiring Fund's total assets (excluding cash, cash items, and U.S.
government securities) will be invested in the stock and securities of any one
issuer and (b)not more than 50% of the value of such assets will be invested in
the stock and securities of five or fewer issuers; and
6. Acquiring Fund does not own, directly or indirectly, nor at the
Effective Time will it own, directly or indirectly, nor has it owned, directly
or indirectly, at any time during the past five years, any shares of Target.

OPINION
Based solely on the facts set forth above, and conditioned on (1) the
Representations being true at the time of Closing and (2) the Reorganization
being consummated in accordance with the Plan, our opinion (as explained more
fully in the next section of this letter) is as follows:
1. Acquiring Fund's acquisition of the Assets in exchange solely for the
Acquiring Fund Shares and Acquiring Fund's assumption of the Liabilities,
followed by Target's distribution of those shares pro rata to the Shareholders
constructively in exchange for their Target Shares, will constitute a
reorganization within the meaning of section 368(a)(1)(C), and each Fund will be
"a party to a reorganization" within the meaning of section 368(b);
2. No gain or loss will be recognized to Target on the transfer of the
Assets to Acquiring Fund in exchange solely for the Acquiring Fund Shares and
Acquiring Fund's assumption of the Liabilities or upon the subsequent
distribution of those shares to the Shareholders in constructive exchange for
their Target Shares (section 361);
3. No gain or loss will be recognized to Acquiring Fund on its receipt of
the Assets in exchange solely for the Acquiring Fund Shares and its assumption
of the Liabilities (section 1032(a));
4. Acquiring Fund's basis for the Assets will be the same as the basis
thereof in Target's hands immediately before the Reorganization (section
362(b)), and Acquiring Fund's holding period for the Assets will include
Target's holding period therefor (section 1223(2));
5. A Shareholder will recognize no gain or loss on the constructive
exchange of all its Target Shares solely for Acquiring Fund Shares pursuant to
the Reorganization (section 354(a)); and
6. A Shareholder's basis for the Acquiring Fund Shares to be received by it
in the Reorganization will be the same as the basis for its Target Shares to be
constructively surrendered in exchange for those Acquiring Fund Shares (section
358(a)), and its holding period for those Acquiring Fund Shares will include its
holding period for those Target Shares, provided they are held as capital assets
by the Shareholder on the Closing Date (section 1223(1)).
The foregoing opinion (1) is based on, and is conditioned on the continued
applicability of, the provisions of the Code and the Regulations, judicial
decisions, and rulings and other pronouncements of the Internal Revenue Service
("Service") in existence on the date hereof and (2) is applicable only to the
extent each Fund is solvent. We express no opinion about the tax treatment of
the transactions described herein if either Fund is insolvent.

ANALYSIS
I. The Reorganization Will Be a Reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(C), and
Each Fund Will Be a Party to a Reorganization.
A. Each Fund Is a Separate Corporation.
A reorganization under section 368(a)(1)(C) (a "C reorganization") involves
the acquisition by one corporation, in exchange solely for all or a part of its
voting stock, of substantially all of the properties of another corporation. For
the transaction to qualify under that section, therefore, both entities involved
therein must be corporations (or associations taxable as corporations). Target,
however, is a Massachusetts business trust, not a corporation, and although PW
Corporation is a corporation, the latter is not participating in the
Reorganization, but rather a series thereof (Acquiring Fund) is the participant.
Treasury Regulation section 301.7701-4(b) provides that certain
arrangements known as trusts (because legal title is conveyed to trustees for
the benefit of beneficiaries) will not be classified as trusts for purposes of
the Code because they are not simply arrangements to protect or conserve the
property for the beneficiaries. These "business or commercial trusts" are
created simply as devices to carry on profit-making businesses that normally
would have been carried on through corporations or partnerships. Treasury
Regulation section 301.7701-4(c) further provides that an "`investment' trust
will not be classified as a trust if there is a power under the trust agreement
to vary the investment of the certificate holders." See Commissioner v. North
American Bond Trust, 122 F.2d 545 (2d Cir. 1941), cert. denied, 314 U.S. 701
(1942).
Based on these criteria, Target does not qualify as a trust for federal
income tax purposes. While Target is an "investment trust," it does not have a
fixed pool of assets--Target has been a managed portfolio of securities, and its
investment adviser has had the authority to buy and sell securities for it.
Target is not simply an arrangement to protect or conserve property for the
beneficiaries, but it is designed to carry on a profit-making business. In
addition, the word "association" has long been held to include "Massachusetts
business trusts," such as Target. See Hecht v. Malley, 265 U.S. 144 (1924).
Accordingly, we believe that Target will be treated as a corporation for federal
income tax purposes.
PW Corporation as such is not participating in the Reorganization, but
rather a series of PW Corporation is a participant. Ordinarily, a transaction
involving a segregated pool of assets (such as Acquiring Fund) could not qualify
as a reorganization, because the pool would not be a corporation. Under section
851(h), however, Acquiring Fund is treated as a separate corporation for all
purposes of the Code save the definitional requirement of section 851(a) (which
is satisfied by PW Corporation). Thus, we believe that Acquiring Fund will be a
separate corporation, and Acquiring Fund's shares will be treated as shares of
corporate stock, for purposes of section 368(a)(1)(C).
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc.
December 4, 1995
Page 9
B. Satisfaction of Section 368(a)(2)(F).
Under section 368(a)(2)(F), if two or more parties to a transaction
described in section 368(a)(1) (other than subparagraph (E) thereof) are
"investment companies," the transaction will not be considered a reorganization
with respect to any such investment company or its shareholders unless, among
other things, the investment company is a RIC or --
(1) not more than 25% of the value of its total assets is invested in the
stock and securities of any one issuer and
(2) not more than 50% of the value of its total assets is invested in the
stock and securities of five or fewer issuers.
Each Fund will meet the requirements for qualification and treatment as a
RIC for its respective current taxable year, and the foregoing percentage tests
will be satisfied by each Fund. Accordingly, we believe that section
368(a)(2)(F) will not cause the Reorganization to fail to qualify as a C
reorganization with respect to either Fund.
C. Transfer of "Substantially All" of the Properties.
For an acquisition to qualify as a C reorganization, the acquiring
corporation must acquire "substantially all of the properties" of the transferor
corporation solely in exchange for all or part of the acquiring corporation's
stock. For purposes of issuing private letter rulings, the Service considers the
transfer of at least 70% of the transferor's gross assets, and at least 90% of
its net assets, held immediately before the reorganization to satisfy the
"substantially all" requirement. Rev. Proc. 77-37, 1977-2 C.B. 568. The
Reorganization will involve such a transfer. Accordingly, we believe that the
Reorganization will involve the transfer to Acquiring Fund of substantially all
of Target's properties.
D. Qualifying Consideration.
For an acquisition to qualify as a C reorganization, the acquiring
corporation must acquire at least 80% (by fair market value) of the transferor's
property solely in exchange for voting stock. Section 368(a)(2)(B)(iii). The
assumption of liabilities by the acquiring corporation or its acquisition of
property subject to liabilities normally are disregarded (section 368(a)(1)(C)),
but the amount of any such liabilities will be treated as money paid for the
transferor's property if the acquiring corporation exchanges any money or
property (other than its voting stock) therefor. Section 368(a)(2)(B). Because
Acquiring Fund will exchange only the Acquiring Fund Shares, and no money or
other property, for the Assets, we believe that the Reorganization will satisfy
the solely-for-voting-stock requirement to qualify as a C reorganization.

Page 10
E. Requirements of Continuity.
Treasury Regulation section 1.368-1(b) sets forth two prerequisites to a
valid reorganization: (1) a continuity of the business enterprise under the
modified corporate form ("continuity of business") and (2) a continuity of
interest therein on the part of those persons who, directly or indirectly, were
the owners of the enterprise prior to the reorganization ("continuity of
interest").
1. Continuity of Business.
The continuity of business enterprise test as set forth in Treas. Reg. ss.
1.368-1(d)(2) requires that the acquiring corporation must either (i) continue
the acquired corporation's historic business ("business continuity") or (ii) use
a significant portion of the acquired corporation's historic business assets in
a business ("asset continuity").
While there is no authority that deals directly with the requirement of
continuity of business in the context of a transaction such as the
Reorganization, Rev. Rul. 87-76, 1987-2 C.B. 84, deals with a somewhat similar
situation. In that ruling, P was a RIC that invested exclusively in municipal
securities. P acquired the assets of T in exchange for P common stock in a
transaction that was intended to qualify as a C reorganization. Prior to the
exchange, T sold its entire portfolio of corporate securities and purchased a
portfolio of municipal bonds. The Service held that this transaction did not
qualify as a reorganization for the following reasons: (1) because T had sold
its historic assets prior to the exchange, there was no asset continuity; and
(2) the failure of P to engage in the business of investing in corporate
securities after the exchange caused the transaction to lack business continuity
as well.
The Funds' investment objectives are substantially identical and their
investment policies are generally similar. Furthermore, Acquiring Fund will
actively continue Target's business in the same manner that Target conducted it
immediately before the Reorganization. Accordingly, there will be business
continuity.
Acquiring Fund not only will continue Target's historic business, but
Acquiring Fund also (1) has no plan or intention to sell or otherwise dispose of
any of the Assets, except for dispositions made in the ordinary course of its
business and dispositions necessary to maintain its status as a RIC, and (2)
expects to retain substantially all the Assets in the same form as it receives
them in the Reorganization, unless and until subsequent investment circumstances
suggest the desirability of change or it becomes necessary to make dispositions
thereof to maintain such status. Accordingly, there will be asset continuity as
well.
For all the foregoing reasons, we believe that the Reorganization will meet
the continuity of business requirement.
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc.
December 4, 1995
Page 11
2. Continuity of Interest.
For purposes of issuing private letter rulings, the Service considers the
continuity of interest requirement of Treas. Reg. ss. 1.368-1(b) satisfied if
ownership in an acquiring corporation on the part of a transferor
corporation's former shareholders is equal in value to at least 50% of the value
of all the formerly outstanding shares of the transferor corporation. Rev. Proc.
77-37, supra; but see Rev. Rul. 56-345, 1956-2 C.B. 206 (continuity of interest
was held to exist in a reorganization of two RICs where immediately after the
reorganization 26% of the shares were redeemed in order to allow investment in a
third RIC); also see Reef Corp. v. Commissioner, 368 F.2d 125 (5th Cir. 1966),
cert. denied, 386 U.S. 1018 (1967) (a redemption of 48% of a transferor
corporation's stock was not a sufficient shift in proprietary interest to
disqualify a transaction as a reorganization under section 368(a)(2)(F) ("F
Reorganization"), even though only 52% of the transferor's shareholders would
hold all the transferee's stock); Aetna Casualty and Surety Co. v. U.S., 568
F.2d 811, 822-23 (2d Cir. 1976) (redemption of a 38.39% minority interest did
not prevent a transaction from qualifying as an F Reorganization); Rev. Rul.
61-156, 1961-2 C.B. 62 (a transaction qualified as an F Reorganization even
though the transferor's shareholders acquired only 45% of the transferee's
stock, while the remaining 55% of that stock was issued to new shareholders in a
public underwriting immediately after the transfer).
No minimum holding period for shares of an acquiring corporation is imposed
under the Code on the acquired corporation's shareholders. Rev. Rul. 66-23,
1966-1 C.B. 67, provides generally that "unrestricted rights of ownership for a
period of time sufficient to warrant the conclusion that such ownership is
definite and substantial" will suffice and that "ordinarily, the Service will
treat five years of unrestricted . . . ownership as a sufficient period" for
continuity of interest purposes.
A preconceived plan or arrangement by or among an acquired corporation's
shareholders to dispose of more than 50% of an acquiring corporation's shares
could be problematic. Shareholders with no such preconceived plan or
arrangement, however, are basically free to sell any part of the shares received
by them in the reorganization without fear of breaking continuity of interest,
because the subsequent sale will be treated as an independent transaction from
the reorganization.
Neither Fund (1) is aware of any plan or intention of Shareholders to
dispose of any portion of the Acquiring Fund Shares to be received by them in
the Reorganization or (2) anticipates dispositions thereof at the time of or
soon after the Reorganization to exceed the usual rate and frequency of
dispositions of shares of Target as an open-end investment company.
Consequently, each Fund expects that the percentage of Shareholder interests, if
any, that will be disposed of as a result of or at the time of the
Reorganization will be de minimis. Accordingly, we believe that the
Reorganization will meet the continuity of interest requirement of Treas. Reg.
ss. 1.368-1(b).
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc.
December 4, 1995
Page 12
F. Distribution by Target.
Section 368(a)(2)(G)(i) provides that a transaction will not qualify as a C
reorganization unless the corporation whose properties are acquired distributes
the stock it receives and its other property in pursuance of the plan of
reorganization. Under the Plan -- which we believe constitutes a "plan of
reorganization" within the meaning of Treas. Reg. 1.368-2(g) -- Target will
distribute all the Acquiring Fund Shares to its shareholders in constructive
exchange for their Target Shares; as soon as is reasonably practicable
thereafter, Target will be dissolved. Accordingly, we believe that the
requirements of section 368(a)(2)(G)(i) will be satisfied.
G. Business Purpose.
All reorganizations must meet the judicially imposed requirements of the
"business purpose doctrine," which was established in Gregory v. Helvering, 293
U.S. 465 (1935), and is now set forth in Treas. Reg. ss.ss. 1.368-1(b), -1(c),
and -2(g) (the last of which provides that, to qualify as a reorganization, a
transaction must be "undertaken for reasons germane to the continuance of the
business of a corporation a party to the reorganization"). Under that doctrine,
a transaction must have a bona fide business purpose (and not a purpose to avoid
federal income tax) to constitute a valid reorganization. The substantial
business purposes of the Reorganization are described in the Proxy. Accordingly,
we believe that the Reorganization is being undertaken for bona fide business
purposes (and not a purpose to avoid federal income tax) and therefore meets the
requirements of the business purpose doctrine.
For all the foregoing reasons, we believe that the Reorganization will
constitute a reorganization within the meaning of section 368(a)(1)(C).
H. Both Funds are Parties to the Reorganization.
Section 368(b)(2) and Treas. Reg. ss. 1.368-1(f) provide that if one
corporation transfers substantially all of its properties to a second
corporation in exchange for all or a part of the voting stock of the second
corporation, then both corporations are parties to a reorganization. Target is
transferring substantially all of its properties to Acquiring Fund in exchange
for Acquiring Fund Shares. Accordingly, we believe that each Fund will be "a
party to a reorganization."
II. No Gain or Loss Will Be Recognized to Target.
Under sections 361(a) and (c), no gain or loss will be recognized to a
corporation that is a party to a reorganization (1) on the exchange of property,
pursuant to the plan of reorganization, solely for stock or securities in
another corporate party to the reorganization or (2) on the distribution to its
shareholders, pursuant to that plan, of stock in such other corporation that was
received by the distributing corporation in the exchange. (Such a distribution
is required by section 368(a)(2)(G)(i) for a reorganization to qualify as a C
reorganization.) Section 361(c)(4) pro-
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc.
December 4, 1995
Page 13
vides that specified provisions requiring recognition of gain on certain
distributions shall not apply to a distribution described in (2) above.
Section 357(a) provides in pertinent part that, except as provided in
section 357(b), if a taxpayer receives property that would be permitted to be
received under section 361 without recognition of gain if it were the sole
consideration and, as part of the consideration, another party to the exchange
assumes a liability of the taxpayer or acquires from the taxpayer property
subject to a liability, then that assumption or acquisition shall not be treated
as money or other property and shall not prevent the exchange from being within
section 361. Section 357(b) applies where the principal purpose of the
assumption or acquisition was a tax avoidance purpose or not a bona fide
business purpose.
As noted above, the Reorganization will constitute a C reorganization, each
Fund will be a party to a reorganization, and the Plan constitutes a plan of
reorganization. Target will exchange the Assets solely for the Acquiring Fund
Shares and Acquiring Fund's assumption of the Liabilities and then will be
dissolved pursuant to the Plan, distributing those shares to its shareholders in
constructive exchange for their Target Shares. As also noted above, we believe
that the Reorganization is being undertaken for bona fide business purposes (and
not a purpose to avoid federal income tax); we also do not believe that the
principal purpose of Acquiring Fund's assumption of the Liabilities is avoidance
of federal income tax on the proposed transaction. Accordingly, we believe that
no gain or loss will be recognized to Target on the Reorganization.3
III. No Gain or Loss Will Be Recognized to Acquiring Fund.
Section 1032(a) provides that no gain or loss will be recognized to a
corporation on the receipt by it of money or other property in exchange for its
shares. Acquiring Fund will issue the Acquiring Fund Shares to Target in
exchange for the Assets, which consist of money and securities. Accordingly, we
believe that no gain or loss will be recognized to Acquiring Fund on the
Reorganization.
- --------
3 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no opinion is
expressed as to the effect of the Reorganization on the Funds or any Shareholder
with respect to any asset as to which any unrealized gain or loss is required to
be recognized for federal income tax purposes at the end of a taxable year (or
on the termination or transfer thereof) under a mark-to-market system of
accounting.

IV. Acquiring Fund's Basis for the Assets Will Be a Carryover Basis, and
Its Holding Period Will Include Target's Holding Period.
Section 362(b) provides that property acquired by a corporation in
connection with a reorganization will have the same basis in that corporation's
hands as the basis of the property in the transferor corporation's hands
immediately before the exchange, increased by any gain recognized to the
transferor on the transfer. As noted above, the Reorganization will constitute a
C reorganization and Target will recognize no gain on the Reorganization under
section 361(a). Accordingly, we believe that Acquiring Fund's basis for the
Assets will be the same as the basis thereof in Target's hands immediately
before the Reorganization.
Section 1223(2) provides that where property acquired in an exchange has a
carryover basis, the property will have a holding period in the hands of the
acquiror that includes the holding period of the property in the transferor's
hands. As stated above, Acquiring Fund's basis for the Assets will be a
carryover basis. Accordingly, we believe that Acquiring Fund's holding period
for the Assets will include Target's holding period therefor.
V. No Gain or Loss Will Be Recognized to a Shareholder.
Under section 354(a), no gain or loss is recognized to a shareholder who
exchanges shares for other shares pursuant to a plan of reorganization, where
the shares exchanged, as well as the shares received, are those of a corporation
that is a party to the reorganization. As stated above, the Reorganization will
constitute a C reorganization, the Plan constitutes a plan of reorganization,
and each Fund will be a party to a reorganization. Accordingly, we believe that
under section 354 a Shareholder will recognize no gain or loss on the
constructive exchange of all its Target Shares solely for Acquiring Fund Shares
pursuant to the Reorganization.
VI. A Shareholder's Basis for Acquiring Fund Shares Will Be a Substituted
Basis, and its Holding Period therefor Will Include its Holding Period for
its Target Shares.
Section 358(a)(1) provides, in part, that in the case of an exchange to
which section 354 applies, the basis of any shares received in the transaction
without the recognition of gain is the same as the basis of the property
transferred in exchange therefor, decreased by, among other things, the fair
market value of any other property and the amount of any money received in the
transaction and increased by the amount of any gain recognized on the exchange
by the shareholder.
As noted above, the Reorganization will constitute a C reorganization and
under section 354 no gain or loss will be recognized to a Shareholder on the
constructive exchange of its Target Shares for Acquiring Fund Shares in the
Reorganization. No property will be distributed to the Shareholders other than
the Acquiring Fund Shares, and no money will be distributed to them pursuant to
the Reorganization. Accordingly, we believe that a Shareholder's basis for the
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc.
December 4, 1995
Page 15
Acquiring Fund Shares to be received by it in the Reorganization will be
the same as the basis for its Target Shares to be constructively surrendered in
exchange for those Acquiring Fund Shares.
Under section 1223(1), the holding period of property received in an
exchange includes the holding period of the property exchanged therefor if the
acquired property has, for the purpose of determining gain or loss, the same
basis in the holder's hands as the property exchanged therefor ("substituted
basis") and such property was a capital asset. As noted above, a Shareholder
will have a substituted basis for the Acquiring Fund Shares it receives in the
Reorganization; accordingly, provided that the Shareholder held its Target
Shares as capital assets on the Closing Date, we believe its holding period for
those Acquiring Fund Shares will include its holding period for those Target
Shares.
We hereby consent to this opinion accompanying the Registration Statement
and to the references to our firm under the captions "Synopsis -- Federal Income
Tax Consequences of the Reorganizations" and "The Proposed Transactions --
Federal Income Tax Considerations" in the Proxy.
Very truly yours,
KIRKPATRICK & LOCKHART LLP

PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody,
Premium Account Fund,
1285 Avenue of the Americas,
New York, N. Y. 10019.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Premium
Account Fund, a Massachusetts business trust ("Target"), in connection with
the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Termination dated as of
November 30, 1995 (the "Agreement"), between PaineWebber RMA Money Fund,
Inc., a Maryland corporation ("PW Corporation"), on behalf of PaineWebber
RMA Money Market Portfolio, a series thereof ("Acquiring Fund"), and
Target, and we render this opinion to you pursuant to paragraph 6.6 of the
Agreement.
Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Agreement.
For the purposes of the opinion set forth below, we have relied
in part, with your consent, upon the representations set forth in letters
dated November 30, 1995
<PAGE>
-2-
from each of PW Corporation and Target, and upon the accuracy and
completeness of the statements and representations contained in the
Agreement and in the Prospectus/Proxy Statement which will be distributed
to the shareholders of Target in connection with the Reorganization. With
your consent we have not attempted to verify independently the accuracy of
any information in these documents and have assumed that the statements and
representations contained therein will be true at the Effective Time.
In connection with this opinion we have also assumed, with your
consent, that the Reorganization will be effected in accordance with the
terms of the Agreement.
On the basis of the foregoing, and our consideration of such
other matters as we have considered relevant, we advise you that, in our
opinion:
1. The Reorganization will constitute a reorganization within
the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(C) of the Code, and each Fund will be "a
party to a reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the
Code;
2. Target will not recognize any gain or loss on the transfer to
Acquiring Fund of the Assets in exchange solely for Acquiring Fund Shares
and Acquiring Fund's
<PAGE>
-3-
assumption of the Liabilities or on the subsequent distribution of those
shares to the Shareholders in constructive exchange for their Target
Shares;
3. Acquiring Fund will not recognize any gain or loss on its
receipt of the Assets in exchange solely for Acquiring Fund Shares and its
assumption of the Liabilities;
4. Acquiring Fund's basis for the Assets will be the same as the
basis thereof to Target immediately before the Reorganization, and
Acquiring Fund's holding period for the Assets will include Target's
holding period therefor;
5. A Shareholder will not recognize any gain or loss on the
constructive exchange of all its Target Shares solely for Acquiring Fund
Shares pursuant to the Reorganization; and
6. A Shareholder's basis for the Acquiring Fund Shares to be
received by it in the Reorganization will be the same as the basis for its
Target Shares to be constructively surrendered in exchange for those
Acquiring Fund Shares, and its holding period for those Acquiring Fund
Shares will include its holding period for those Target Shares, provided
they are held as capital assets by the Shareholder at the Effective Time.
We express no opinion as to the effect of the Reorganization on
the Funds or any Shareholder in respect of
<PAGE>
-4-
any asset as to which unrealized gain or loss is required to be
recognized for U.S. Federal income tax purposes at the end of each
taxable year under a mark-to-market system of accounting.
The tax consequences described above may not be applicable to a
Target Shareholder who acquired Target Shares pursuant to the exercise of
an employee stock option or otherwise as compensation.
We hereby consent to the reference to us under the sub-headings
"Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reorganizations" and "Federal
Income Tax Considerations--Premium Account Fund Reorganization" in the
Prospectus/Proxy Statement of Acquiring Fund and Target and to the filing
of this opinion as an Exhibit to the Registration Statement on Form N-14 of
Acquiring Fund including the Prospectus/Proxy Statement filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. In giving this consent we do not
thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is
required

under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules or
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.

PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc.
1285 Avenue of the Americas
New York, NY 10019
Ladies and Gentlemen:
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc. ("PW Corporation"), on behalf of
PaineWebber RMA Money Market Portfolio, a segregated portfolio of assets
("series") thereof ("Acquiring Fund"), has requested our opinion as to certain
federal income tax consequences of the proposed acquisition by Acquiring Fund of
PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Cash Reserve Fund, Inc. ("Target")/1/ pursuant to an
Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Dissolution between them dated as of
November 30, 1995 ("Plan"). The Plan is attached as an exhibit to the
prospectus/proxy statement to be furnished in connection with the solicitation
of proxies by Target's board of trustees for use at a special meeting of Target
shareholders ("Special Meeting") to be held on February 13, 1996 ("Proxy"),
included in the registration statement on Form N-14 to be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on or about the date hereof
("Registration Statement").
In rendering this opinion, we have examined (1) Target's currently
effective prospectus and statement of additional information ("SAI"), both dated
December 1, 1995, and Acquiring Fund's currently effective prospectus and SAI,
both dated August 29, 1995, (2) the Proxy, (3) the Plan, and (4) such other
documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes hereof. As
to various matters of fact material to this opinion, we have relied, exclusively
and without independent verification, on statements of responsible officers of
each Investment Company and the representations made in the Plan (as
contemplated in paragraph 6.6 thereof) (collectively "Representations").
FACTS
-----
PW Corporation is a corporation organized under the laws of the State
of Maryland pursuant to Articles of Incorporation dated July 2, 1982; Acquiring
Fund commenced operations as a series thereof on October 4, 1982. Target
is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Maryland pursuant to
Articles of Incorporation dated May 31, 1979, and commenced operations on August
28, 1979. Each Investment Company is registered with the SEC as an open-end
management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
PaineWebber Incorporated ("PaineWebber") serves as each Fund's investment
adviser and administrator and is the distributor of each Fund's shares. Mitchell
Hutchins Asset Management Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of PaineWebber,
serves as sub-adviser and sub-administrator to each Fund.
The transactions contemplated by the Plan (collectively
"Reorganization") consist of the acquisition by Acquiring Fund of Target's
assets/2/ in exchange for full and fractional shares of common stock in
Acquiring Fund ("Acquiring Fund Shares") and the assumption by Acquiring
Fund of Target's liabilities/3/, followed by the distribution of those shares by
Target pro rata to its shareholders of record as of the Effective Time
("Shareholders") constructively in exchange for their shares of common stock in
Target ("Target Shares"). The Reorganization shall occur as of the Effective
Time.
PW Corporation has advised us that each Fund intends to report the
federal income tax consequences of the Reorganization as follows:
- ------------
1 Acquiring Fund and Target are sometimes referred to herein individually as a
"Fund," and PW Corporation and Target are sometimes referred to herein
individually as an "Investment Company."
2 The assets to be acquired by Acquiring Fund will consist of all cash, cash
equivalents, securities, receivables (including interest and dividends
receivable), claims and rights of action, rights to register shares under
applicable securities laws, books and records, deferred and pre-paid expenses
shown as assets on Target's books, and other property owned by Target as of
12:00 noon on February 20, 1996 (or on such other date or at such other time as
the parties may agree) ("Effective Time") (collectively "Assets").
3 The liabilities to be assumed by Acquiring Fund will consist of all of
Target's liabilities, debts, obligations, and duties of whatever kind or nature,
whether absolute, accrued, contingent, or otherwise, whether or not arising in
the ordinary course of business, whether or not determinable at the Effective
Time, and whether or not specifically referred to in the Plan, including without
limitation Target's share of the expenses incurred in connection with the
Reorganization (Target having agreed in the Plan to use its best efforts to
discharge all of its known liabilities and obligations prior to the Effective
Time) (collectively "Liabilities").
PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc.
December 4, 1995
Page 2
(1) Acquiring Fund's acquisition of the Assets in exchange for
Acquiring Fund Shares and Acquiring Fund's assumption of the
Liabilities will constitute a taxable sale of the Assets by Target to
Acquiring Fund;
(2) Target's distribution of the Acquiring Fund Shares to the
Shareholders will be treated as a distribution in liquidation of
Target, and each Shareholder may recognize gain or loss
on that distribution, depending upon whether the Shareholder's tax
basis for its shares of common stock in Target ("Target Shares") is
less than, is equal to, or exceeds the fair market value of the
Acquiring Fund Shares received;
(3) Gain or loss may be recognized to Target on the transfer
to Acquiring Fund of the Assets in exchange for Acquiring Fund Shares
and Acquiring Fund's assumption of the Liabilities, depending on
whether Target's aggregate tax basis for the Assets is less than, is
equal to, or exceeds the sum of the fair market value of the Acquiring
Fund Shares received by Target and the amount of the Liabilities
assumed by Acquiring Fund;
(4) Except to the extent the Acquiring Fund Shares
appreciate or depreciate in value in Target's hands prior to
distribution thereof to the Shareholders, no gain or loss will be
recognized to Target on the subsequent distribution of the Acquiring
Fund Shares to the Shareholders in constructive exchange for
their Target Shares;
(5) No gain or loss will be recognized to Acquiring Fund on
its receipt of the Assets in exchange for Acquiring Fund Shares and its
assumption of the Liabilities;
(6) Acquiring Fund's aggregate tax basis for the Assets will
be equal to the sum of the fair market value of the Acquiring Fund
Shares exchanged therefor plus the amount of the Liabilities assumed by
Acquiring Fund, and Acquiring Fund's holding period for the Assets will
begin on the day after the Effective Time; and
(7) A Shareholder's basis for the Acquiring Fund Shares
to be received by it in the Reorganization will be the fair market
value of those shares on the date of distribution, and its holding
period for those Acquiring Fund Shares will begin on the day after the
Effective Time.

OPINION
-------
Based on the facts set forth above, and conditioned on (1) the
Representations being true at the Effective Time and (2) the Reorganization
being consummated in accordance with the Plan, it is our opinion that Acquiring
Fund's treatment of the Reorganization and the collateral federal income tax
consequences resulting therefrom as described above are warranted in existing
law.
The foregoing opinion (1) is based on, and is conditioned on the
continued applicability of, the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial decisions, and
rulings and other pronouncements of the Internal Revenue Service in existence
on the date hereof and (2) is applicable only to the extent each Fund is
solvent. We express no opinion about the tax treatment of the transactions
described herein if either Fund is insolvent.
We hereby consent to this opinion accompanying the Registration
Statement.
Very truly yours,

Re: Registration Statement on Form N-14
Ladies and Gentlemen:
You have requested our opinion as to the federal income tax
treatment of the reorganization contemplated by the Agreement and
Plan of Reorganization and Dissolution, substantially in the form
included as Appendix B to the Registration Statement on Form N-14
of PaineWebber RMA Money Fund, Inc., the initial filing of which
will be made with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or
about the date hereof, (the "Registration Statement"), between
PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Cash Reserve Fund, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Acquired Fund"), and PaineWebber RMA Money Market
Portfolio (the "Acquiring Fund"), a series of PaineWebber RMA Money
Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation.
In rendering this opinion, we have examined the Agreement and Plan
of Reorganization and Dissolution, the Registration Statement, and
such other documents as we have deemed necessary or relevant for
the purpose of this opinion. In issuing this opinion, we have
relied, exclusively and without independent verification, on the
representations set forth in the Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization and Dissolution. As to various questions of fact
material to this opinion, where relevant facts were not
independently established by us, we have relied upon statements of,
and written information provided by, representatives of the
Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund. We have examined such
matters of law as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the
purpose of this opinion. We note that this opinion is based on our
<PAGE>
PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody
Cash Reserve Fund, Inc.
December 4, 1995
Page 2
examination of such law, our review of the documents described
above, the representations in the Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization and Dissolution, the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the regulations,
published rulings and announcements thereunder, and the judicial
interpretations thereof currently in effect. Any change in
applicable law or any of the facts and circumstances described in
the Registration Statement, or inaccuracy of any representations on
which we have relied, may affect the continuing validity of this
opinion.
Capitalized terms not defined herein have the respective meanings
given such terms in the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and
Dissolution.
You have advised us that the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund
intend to report the federal income tax consequences of the
Reorganization as follows:
(a) The Acquiring Fund's acquisition of the Assets in
exchange for Acquiring Fund Shares and the Acquiring Fund's
assumption of the Liabilities, followed by the Acquired Fund's
distribution of those Acquiring Fund Shares to the Shareholders
constructively in exchange for the Shareholders' Acquired Fund
Shares, will constitute a taxable sale of assets by the Acquired
Fund to the Acquiring Fund followed by a liquidating distribution
to the Shareholders;
(b) The Acquired Fund may recognize gain or loss on the
transfer of the Assets to the Acquiring Fund in exchange solely for
Acquiring Fund Shares and the Acquiring Fund's assumption of the
Liabilities, depending upon whether the Acquired Fund's aggregate
tax basis for the Assets is less than, equals, or exceeds the sum
of the fair value of the Acquiring Fund Shares received by the
Acquired Fund and the amount of the Liabilities assumed by the
Acquiring Fund;
(c) Except to the extent the Acquiring Fund Shares appreciate
or depreciate in value in the Acquired Fund's hands prior to the
distribution thereof to the Shareholders, the Acquired Fund will
<PAGE>
PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody
Cash Reserve Fund, Inc.
December 4, 1995
Page 3
not recognize gain or loss on the subsequent distribution of
Acquiring Fund Shares to the Shareholders in constructive exchange
for their Acquired Fund Shares;
(d) The Acquiring Fund will not recognize gain or loss on its
receipt of the Assets in exchange solely for Acquiring Fund Shares
and its assumption of the Liabilities;
(e) The Acquiring Fund's aggregate tax basis for the Assets
will be equal to the sum of the fair value of the Acquiring Fund
Shares exchanged therefor plus the Liabilities assumed by the
Acquiring Fund, and the Acquiring Fund's holding period for the
Assets will begin on the day after the Closing Date;
(f) A Shareholder may recognize gain or loss on the
constructive exchange of its Acquired Fund Shares for Acquiring
Fund Shares pursuant to the Reorganization, depending upon whether
the Shareholder's tax basis for its Acquired Fund Shares is less
than, equals, or exceeds the fair value of the Acquiring Fund
Shares received in exchange therefor; and
(g) A Shareholder's basis for the Acquiring Fund Shares to be
received by it in the Reorganization will be the fair value for
such shares on the date of distribution, and its holding period for
those Acquiring Fund Shares will begin on the day after the Closing
Date.
Subject to the qualifications and caveats expressed above, it is
our opinion that the treatment of the Reorganization and the
collateral tax consequences resulting therefrom as described above
are warranted in existing law.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to
the Registration Statement and to the reference to us in the
Prospectus/Proxy Statement included in the Registration Statement,
and to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to any Registration
Statement, and to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to any
application made by or on behalf of the Acquiring Fund or any
distributor or dealer in connection with the registration and
qualification of Acquiring Fund Shares under the securities laws of
