                                                           June 23, 1997

Dear Investor,

     This is a supplement to the Prospectuses of the PaineWebber Mutual Funds
listed on the reverse side ("Funds"). The purpose of this supplement is to
notify prospective investors of changes to the sales charge waivers for the
Funds' Class A shares including the discontinuation of the waiver for advisory
clients of Mitchell Hutchins. The disclosure with respect to sales charge
waivers contained in the prospectus under the caption "Fexible Pricing'sm' --
Class A Shares -- Sales Charge Reductions & Waivers" will be superseded by the
following:

The sales charge will not apply when the Investor:

         is an employee, director, trustee or officer of PaineWebber, its
         affiliates or any PaineWebber mutual Fund;

         is the spouse, parent or child of any of the above;

         buys these shares through a PaineWebber Investment executive who was
         formerly employed as a broker with a competing brokerage firm that was
         registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC; and

              was the investment executive's client at the competing brokerage
              firm;

              within 90 days of buying Class A shares in this Fund, the investor
              sells shares of one or more mutual funds that (a) were principally
              underwritten by the competing brokerage firm or its affiliates
              and (b) the investor either paid a sales charge to buy those
              shares, paid a contingent deferred sales charge when selling
              them or held those shares until the contingent deferred sales
              charge was waived; and

              the amount that the investor purchases does not exceed the total
              amount of money the investor received from the sale of the other
              mutual fund;

         is a certificate holder of unit investment trusts sponsored by
         PaineWebber and has elected to have dividends and other distributions
         from that investment automatically invested in Class A shares;

         is an employer establishing an employee benefit plan qualified under
         section 401, including a salary reduction plan qualified under section
         401(k), or section 403(b) of the internal Revenue Code ("Code") (each
         a "qualified pension plan"). (This waiver is subject to minimum
         requirements, with respect to the number of employees and amount of
         plan assets, established by Mitchell Hutchins. Currently, the plan must
         have 50 or more eligible employees and at least $1 million in plan
         assets.) For investments made pursuant to this waiver, Mitchell
         Hutchins may make a payment to PaineWebber out of its own resources in
         an amount not to exceed 1% of the amount invested;

         investments made pursuant to this waiver, Mitchell Hutchins may make
         payments out of its own resources to PaineWebber and to participating
         membership organizations in a total amount not to exceed 1% of the
         amount invested;

         is a variable annuity offered only to qualified pension plans. For
         investments made pursuant to this waiver, Mitchell Hutchins may make

         annuity's sponsor, adviser or distributor in a total amount not to
         exceed 1% of the amount invested;

         acquires Class A shares through an investment program that is not
         sponsored by PaineWebber or its affiliates and that charges
         participants a fee for program services, provided that the program
         sponsor has entered into a written agreement with PaineWebber
         permitting the sale of Class A shares at net asset value to that
         program. For investments made pursuant to this waiver, Mitchell
         Hutchins may make a payment to PaineWebber out of its own resources in
         an amount not to exceed 1% of the amount invested. For subsequent
         investments or exchanges made to implement a rebalancing feature of
         such an investment program, the minimum subsequent investment
         requirement is also waived; or

         acquires Class A shares in connection with a reorganization pursuant to
         which a Fund acquires substantially all of the assets and liabilities
         of another investment company in exchange solely for shares of the
         Fund.
