The Fund
                            The  Fund is a diversified, open-end,  management investment company whose investment objective
                            is the maximization of current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital
                            and  the  maintenance  of  liquidity  through  investments  only  in  short-term  money  market

Benefits of
Investment
in the
Fund
                            Mutual  funds,  such  as  the  Fund,  are  flexible  investment  tools  that  are  increasingly
                            popular -- one of four American households now owns  shares of at least one mutual fund --  for
                            very sound reasons. The Fund offers investors the following important benefits:
                            Professional Management
                              By  pooling the funds of many investors, the Fund enables shareholders to obtain the benefits
                             of full-time professional  management and a  degree of diversification  of investment that  is
                             beyond  the means  of most  investors. The Fund's  investment adviser  reviews the fundamental
                             characteristics of far more securities than can  a typical individual investor and may  employ
                             portfolio  management  techniques that  frequently  are not  used  by an  individual investor.
                             Additionally, the larger denominations of securities in  which the Fund invests may result  in
                             better overall prices for the investments. See 'Investment Objective and Management Policies.'
                            Transaction Savings
                              By  investing  in the  Fund, a  shareholder is  able  to acquire  ownership in  a diversified
                             portfolio of securities without paying the  higher transaction costs associated with a  series
                             of small securities purchases.
                            Convenience
                              Fund   shareholders  are  relieved  of  the  administrative  and  recordkeeping  burdens  and
                             coordination of maturities normally associated with direct ownership of securities.
                            Quality
                              All securities in  which the  Fund invests  will be determined  to be  of high  quality by  a
                             nationally  recognized rating organization, or  determined to be of  comparable quality by the
                             Fund's investment adviser acting  under the supervision  of the Board of  Directors if not  so
                             rated,  and will also be  determined to present minimal credit  risks. Any purchase of unrated
                             securities or securities that  are rated only by  a single rating agency  must be approved  or
                             ratified by the Directors.
                            Liquidity
                               The Fund's  convenient purchase  and redemption  procedures provide  shareholders with ready
                             access to their money  and reduce the  delays frequently involved in  the direct purchase  and
                             sale of securities. See 'Purchase of Shares' and 'Redemption of Shares.'

Purchase of
Shares
                            Shares of the Fund are offered exclusively  to existing shareholders of the Fund. The  purchase
                            price  for shares of the Fund is the net asset value per share next determined after receipt by
                            the Fund of a purchase order  in proper form. The Fund seeks  to maintain a constant net  asset
                            value  of $1.00,  although there is  no assurance it  will be able  to do so.  See 'Purchase of
                            Shares' and 'Determination of Net Asset Value.'
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- -------------------
Redemption of
Shares
                            Shares of the Fund  may be redeemed  at the Fund's  net asset value  per share next  determined
                            after   receipt  by   the  transfer  agent   of  instructions   from  PaineWebber  Incorporated
                            ('PaineWebber'). See 'Redemption of Shares' for a discussion of the various alternative methods
                            of redeeming shares of the Fund and 'Determination of Net Asset Value.'

Risk Factors
                            The  Fund may enter  into repurchase agreements. In  the event the other  party to a repurchase
                            agreement defaults, the Fund may experience difficulties and incur certain costs in  exercising
                            its rights to the collateral and may lose the interest it expected to receive in respect of the
                            repurchase agreement.

The chart below shows the current and effective yields, calculated in accordance
with  rules of  the SEC,  and the average  portfolio maturity  for the seven-day
periods ended March 31, 1995 and July 1, 1995.

</TABLE>
 
     From time to time  the Fund advertises its  'current yield' and  'effective
yield.' Both yield figures are based on historical earnings and are not intended
to  indicate future performance. The  'current yield' of the  Fund refers to the
income generated by  an investment in  the Fund over  a seven-day period  (which
period  will be stated in the  advertisement). This income is then 'annualized.'
That is, the amount of  income generated by the  investment during that week  is
assumed  to be  generated each  week over  a 52-week  period and  is shown  as a
percentage of the investment. The 'effective yield' is calculated similarly but,
when annualized, the income earned by an investment in the Fund is assumed to be
reinvested. The  'effective yield'  will be  slightly higher  than the  'current
yield'  because  of the  compounding effect  of  this assumed  reinvestment. The
Statement of Additional Information describes in more detail the methods used to
calculate the yields of the Fund.
 
     Performance data for the Fund  may, in reports and promotional  literature,
be  compared to:  (i) other  mutual funds  tracked by  IBC/Donoghue's Money Fund
Report and Lipper  Analytical Services, widely  used independent research  firms
which  rank  mutual funds  by  overall performance,  investment  objectives, and
assets, or tracked by  other services, companies,  publications, or persons  who
rank  mutual  funds on  overall performance  or  other criteria;  (ii) unmanaged
indices so that investors may compare the  Fund's results with those of a  group
of  unmanaged securities widely  regarded by investors  as representative of the
securities markets in  general; and  (iii) the Consumer  Price Index  (inflation
measure).  Promotional and advertising literature  also may refer to discussions
of the Fund and comparative mutual fund data and ratings reported in independent
periodicals.
 
                  INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND MANAGEMENT POLICIES
 
The Fund seeks  to maximize  current income to  the extent  consistent with  the
preservation  of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. The Fund pursues this
objective by investing  only in  short-term money market  instruments issued  or
guaranteed   by  the  U.S.  Government  or  its  agencies  or  instrumentalities
('Eligible Investments').  The Fund's  investment objective  and its  policy  of
investing only in Eligible Investments cannot be changed without approval by the
holders  of a majority of the outstanding shares  of the Fund, as defined in the
Investment Company  Act  of  1940,  as  amended  (the  'Act').  See  'Additional
Information About the Fund.'
 
     Securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government include a variety of
Treasury  securities, which differ only in  their interest rates, maturities and
dates of issuance. Treasury Bills have maturities of one year or less.  Treasury
Notes have maturities of one to ten years and
 
                                       6
 
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Treasury  Bonds generally have maturities of greater  than ten years at the date
of issuance. Treasury securities are backed by the full faith and credit of  the
United States.
 
     Some  obligations  of U.S.  Government  agencies and  instrumentalities are
supported by the full faith and credit of the United States, others by the right
of the issuer to borrow from the Treasury, while still others are supported only
by the  credit  of the  instrumentality.  Because  the U.S.  Government  is  not
obligated  by law to provide support to an instrumentality it sponsors, the Fund
will invest in such securities only  when Mitchell Hutchins determines that  the
credit  risk with  respect to the  instrumentality does not  make its securities
unsuitable investments for the Fund.
 
     The Fund may  enter into repurchase  agreements with government  securities
dealers  recognized by the Federal Reserve Board  or member banks of the Federal
Reserve System.  A  repurchase  agreement  is  an  instrument  under  which  the
purchaser  (i.e., the Fund) acquires  a debt security and  the seller agrees, at
the time of the  sale, to repurchase  the obligation at  a mutually agreed  upon
time  and price,  thereby determining the  yield during  the purchaser's holding
period.  While  the  maturities  of  the  underlying  securities  in  repurchase
agreement  transactions may be more  than one year, the  term of each repurchase
agreement will  always  be less  than  one year.  If  the seller  defaults,  the
underlying  security  constitutes  collateral  (whose  market  value,  including
accrued interest, must be at least equal  to 100% of the dollar amount  invested
by  the Fund in  each repurchase agreement)  for the seller's  obligation to pay
although the  Fund  may  experience  difficulties and  incur  certain  costs  in
exercising its rights to the collateral and may lose the interest it expected to
receive.  Repurchase agreements usually are for  short periods, such as one week
or less, but may be longer. The  Fund will not enter into repurchase  agreements
of  more than seven  days duration if more  than 10% of the  market value of its
total assets would be  so invested together with  any other investment the  Fund
may hold for which market quotations are not readily available.
 
     The  Fund  may purchase  securities on  a  when-issued or  delayed delivery
basis -- i.e., delivery  and payment may  take place a month  or more after  the
date of the transaction. The purchase price and the interest rate payable on the
securities  are fixed on  the transaction date. The  securities so purchased are
subject to market fluctuation;  therefore, at the time  of delivery and  payment
the  market price may  be higher or  lower than the  purchase price. No interest
accrues to the Fund until delivery and payment take place. At the time the  Fund
makes the commitment to purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery
basis,  it will record the transaction and  thereafter reflect the value of such
securities in  determining its  net asset  value each  day. The  Fund will  make
commitments  for  such  when-issued  transactions  only  with  the  intention of
actually acquiring the  securities, and,  to facilitate  such acquisitions,  the
Fund's  custodian will  maintain, in a  separate account of  the Fund, portfolio
securities having a value equal to or greater than such commitments. On delivery
dates for such transactions, the Fund will meet its obligations from  maturities
or  sales  of the  securities held  in  the separate  account, and/or  from then
available cash flow. If the  Fund chooses to dispose of  the right to acquire  a
when-issued security prior to its acquisition, it could, as with the disposition
of  any  other  portfolio  obligation,  incur  a  gain  or  loss  due  to market
fluctuation.
 
     The Fund  attempts to  increase  yields by  trading  to take  advantage  of
short-term  market  variations.  This  policy may  result  in  a  high portfolio
turnover rate. See 'Portfolio Transactions.'

     The Fund  may  lend  its  portfolio  securities  to  brokers,  dealers  and
financial  institutions, and receive collateral in  cash or securities issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. Government  which will be maintained  at all times in  an
amount  equal  to  at least  100%  of the  current  market value  of  the loaned
securities. Such collateral, if cash, will be invested in Eligible  Investments,
the  income from which will increase the return  to the Fund. Such loans will be
terminable at any time. No such loans will be made to PaineWebber. The Fund will
have the  right to  regain record  ownership of  loaned securities  in order  to
exercise  beneficial rights. Any gain or loss  in the market price of the loaned
securities occurring during the term  of the loan inures  to the Fund. The  Fund
may pay reasonable fees to persons unaffiliated with the Fund in connection with
arranging such loans.
 
     The  Fund may not borrow money except from banks for temporary or emergency
purposes, including the  meeting of  redemption requests  which might  otherwise
require  the untimely disposition of securities.  Borrowing in the aggregate may
not exceed 10%, 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) valued at the lesser of cost or value less liabilities (not  including
the  amount borrowed) at the time the  borrowing is made. The borrowings will be
repaid before any additional investments are made.
 
     The Fund will maintain a  dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of  90
days  or less.  All securities  in which  the Fund  invests will  have remaining
maturities of 397 days or less on  the date of purchase, will be denominated  in
U.S.  dollars and will have been determined  to be of high quality by nationally
recognized statistical rating  organizations or determined  to be of  comparable
quality  if not so rated. Mitchell Hutchins, acting under the supervision of and
procedures adopted  by  the Board  of  Directors, will  determine  that  unrated
securities purchased by the Fund are of high quality and will determine that all
securities  purchased by the Fund present  minimal credit risks and any purchase
of unrated  securities or  securities that  are rated  only by  a single  rating
agency will be approved or ratified by the Board of Directors. Mitchell Hutchins
will, under the supervision of the Board of Directors, cause the Fund to dispose
of  any security  as soon as  practicable if the  security is no  longer of high
quality, unless the Board of Directors determines that this action would not  be
in  the best  interest of  the Fund.  High quality,  short term  instruments may
result in a lower yield than instruments with a lower quality or a longer term.
 
     Further information about the investment policies of the Fund, including  a
list  of  the Fund's  investment restrictions  which  cannot be  changed without
approval by the holders  of a majority  of the outstanding  shares of the  Fund,
appears in the Statement of Additional Information.
 
                             MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND
 
DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
 
Overall responsibility for management and supervision of the Fund rests with its
Board  of Directors. The day-to-day operations of the Fund are conducted through
or under the direction  of its officers.  There are five  members of the  Fund's
Board  of Directors, one of whom is employed by Mitchell Hutchins. The Statement
of Additional Information contains general background information regarding each
Director and officer of the Fund.

MANAGEMENT
 
At a  special  meeting  of shareholders  that  took  place on  April  13,  1995,
shareholders  approved a  new investment  advisory and  administration agreement
with PaineWebber and  a new sub-advisory  and sub-administration agreement  with
Mitchell  Hutchins. PaineWebber and Mitchell Hutchins are located at 1285 Avenue
of the Americas, New York, New York  10019. Mitchell Hutchins is a wholly  owned
subsidiary  of PaineWebber, which in turn is  wholly owned by Paine Webber Group
Inc., a publicly owned financial services holding company. As of June 30,  1995,
PaineWebber  or Mitchell Hutchins served as investment adviser or sub-adviser to
[42] investment  companies with  an aggregate  of [77]  separate portfolios  and
aggregate assets of approximately [$26] billion.
 
     The  Fund  pays the  same fee  for  investment advisory  and administration
services to PaineWebber as previously  paid to Kidder Peabody Asset  Management,
Inc.  ('KPAM'),  the Fund's  predecessor  investment adviser  and administrator.
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. PaineWebber and Mitchell Hutchins continue to  manage
the  Fund  in  accordance with  the  Fund's investment  objective,  policies and
restrictions.
 
     As compensation for PaineWebber's services,  the Fund pays a fee,  computed
daily  and paid monthly, at  an annual rate of .50%  of the Fund's average daily
net assets. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995, the Fund's total  expenses
represented  .72% of its average  net assets. From time  to time, PaineWebber in
its sole discretion may waive all or  a portion of its fee and/or reimburse  all
or a portion of the Fund's operating expenses.
 
     Mitchell  Hutchins  manages the  Fund's  portfolio in  accordance  with the
stated policies of the Fund, makes investment decisions for the Fund and  places
the  purchase and  sale orders  for portfolio  transactions. Although investment
decisions for the Fund are made  independently from those of the other  accounts
managed by Mitchell Hutchins, investments of the type the Fund may make may also
be  made by those other  accounts. When the Fund and  one or more other accounts
managed by Mitchell Hutchins are prepared to invest in, or desire to dispose of,
the  same  security,  available  investments  or  opportunities  for  sales  are
allocated  in a manner believed by Mitchell Hutchins to be equitable to each. In
some cases, this procedure  may adversely affect the  price paid or received  by
the Fund or the size of the position obtained or disposed of by the Fund.
 
                             PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
 
Mitchell  Hutchins places  the orders  for the purchase  and sale  of the Fund's
portfolio securities. Transactions are allocated to various dealers by  Mitchell
Hutchins in its best judgment. The primary consideration is prompt and effective
execution  of  orders  at the  most  favorable  price. Subject  to  that primary
consideration, dealers  may  be  selected for  research,  statistical  or  other
services to enable Mitchell Hutchins to supplement its own research and analysis
with  the  views  and  information  of  other  securities  firms.  No  brokerage
commissions have been paid to date.
 
     Investment decisions for the Fund are made independently from those of  any
other  fund(s)  managed  by Mitchell  Hutchins.  If, however,  funds  managed by
Mitchell Hutchins are

simultaneously engaged  in  the purchase  or  sale  of the  same  security,  the
transactions  are averaged as to price and  allocated equitably to each fund. In
some cases, this system might adversely affect the price paid or received by the
Fund or the size of the position obtainable for the Fund.
 
                               PURCHASE OF SHARES
 
GENERAL INFORMATION
 
PaineWebber serves as  the Fund's distributor.  Shares of the  Fund are  offered
exclusively  to existing shareholders and must be maintained through a brokerage
account with  PaineWebber  (an  'Account').  Thus, an  investor  who  wishes  to
purchase  shares but  has no  existing Account  must establish  one. PaineWebber
charges no  maintenance fee  in  connection with  an  Account through  which  an
investor purchases or holds shares of the Fund.
 
     Shares  are  sold on  a  continuous basis  at  their net  asset  value next
determined after an order and good funds (e.g., cash, Federal funds or certified
checks drawn  on  a  United  States  bank)  are  received.  PaineWebber  regards
instructions received from an investor as merely an indication of interest until
the  existence of  good funds can  be verified.  During the period  prior to the
receipt  of  good  funds,  an  investor's  money  will  not  be  invested.  When
verification  is obtained,  an indication  of interest  becomes an  order. If an
investor does not have a sufficient  credit balance in his Account, payment  for
shares  must be  converted into  Federal funds  before an  order to  purchase is
effective. Purchase orders received before  12:00 noon, Eastern time, for  which
payment  has been received by PaineWebber will  be executed at that time and the
shareholder will  receive the  dividend declared  on that  day. Purchase  orders
received after 12:00 noon, Eastern time, and purchase orders received earlier in
the  same day  for which payment  has not  been received by  12:00 noon, Eastern
time, will be executed  at the close  of regular trading on  the New York  Stock
Exchange,  if payment  has been  received by  PaineWebber by  that time  and the
shareholder will receive the dividend declared on the following day.
 
     Credit balances of $1 or more in an RMA or BSA will be swept  automatically
into  shares of the Fund daily. Credit  balances for non-RMA and non-BSA amounts
from $1 to  $4,999 will be  swept as of  the close of  business each Friday  for
settlement  on the next business day and  credit balances of $5,000 or more will
be swept daily for settlement  on the next business  day. The Fund reserves  the
right at any time to impose minimum purchase and subsequent purchase amounts.
 
PURCHASES WITH FUNDS HELD AT PAINEWEBBER
 

All  deposits to a brokerage account and  any free credit cash balances that may
arise in a brokerage account will  be automatically invested in shares of  their
Primary Sweep Money Fund, according to sweep rules described above provided that
Federal  funds  are available  for the  investment.  Federal funds  normally are
available for  cash balances  arising from  the  sale of  securities held  in  a
brokerage  account on the  Business Day following settlement,  but in some cases
can take longer.

PURCHASES BY WIRE
 
Shares of the Fund may also be  purchased by transferring Federal funds by  wire
to  a PaineWebber brokerage account. Wire  transfers should be directed to: Bank
of New York, ABA 021000018, PaineWebber Inc., for RMAs/BSAs A/C 890-0114-088 and
for all  other  accounts  A/C  890-0114-096  OBI-FBO  [Account  Name]/[Brokerage
Account  Number].  The wire  must include  the  investor's name  and PaineWebber
brokerage account number.  Participants wishing to  transfer Federal funds  into
their  accounts  should  contact  their  PaineWebber  investment  executives  or
correspondent firms to determine the appropriate wire instructions.
 
     To the extent that the amounts transferred by wire create a cash balance in
an investor's account, that cash balance  will be automatically invested in  the
investor's  Primary Sweep Money  Fund, as described  above under 'Purchases with
Funds Held at PaineWebber.' Participants  wishing to invest amounts  transferred
by  wire in the Fund should  so instruct their PaineWebber investment executives
or correspondent firms.
 
     If PaineWebber receives a notice from an investor's bank of a wire transfer
of Federal funds by 12:00 noon, Eastern  time, on a Business Day, the  automatic
investment  will  be executed  on that  Business  Day. Otherwise,  the automatic
investment will be executed  at 12:00 noon, Eastern  time, on the next  Business
Day.  PaineWebber and/or an investor's bank may impose a service charge for wire
transfers.
 
                              REDEMPTION OF SHARES
 
A shareholder may redeem shares on any day that net asset value is determined by
following the procedures set forth below.
 
REDEMPTION THROUGH PAINEWEBBER
 
PaineWebber wires the terms of any redemption request properly received to  PFPC
Inc.  The price at which a redemption request is executed is the net asset value
per share next  determined after  proper redemption  instructions are  received.
Payment  for redemption  orders, if  any, that  are received  before 12:00 noon,
Eastern time, normally is made on the same business day. Shares redeemed in this
manner will not be entitled to the  dividend declared on the day of  redemption.
Redemption  orders, if any, that are  received between 12:00 noon, Eastern time,
and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange are effective at
the 4:00  p.m. price  on that  day, but  payment normally  is made  on the  next
business  day  following  the redemption.  Shares  redeemed in  this  manner are
entitled to  the dividend  declared on  the  day of  redemption. Proceeds  of  a
redemption  generally are credited to the  shareholder's Account, or sent to the
shareholder, as applicable.
 
REDEMPTION BY MAIL
 
Shares may also be redeemed by submitting  a written request in 'good order'  to
PFPC Inc. at the following address:
 
         PFPC Inc.
         P.O. Box 8950
         Wilmington, Delaware 19899
         Attn: PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody
              Government Money Fund, Inc.
 
                                       11
 
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
     Redemption  requests received  by PFPC Inc.  by mail are  processed by PFPC
Inc. which  will  mail a  check  in the  appropriate  redemption amount  to  the
shareholder the next Business Day after receipt of a redemption request in 'Good
Order.'
 
     A redemption request is considered to have been received in 'good order' if
the following conditions are satisfied:
 
          (1)  the request  is in  writing, states  the number  of shares  to be
     redeemed and identifies the shareholder's Fund account number;
 
          (2) the request  is signed  by each  registered owner  exactly as  the
     shares are registered;
 
          (3)  if the shares to be redeemed were issued in certificate form, the
     certificates are endorsed for transfer (or are themselves accompanied by an
     endorsed stock power) and accompany the redemption request (which should be
     sent by registered mail for the protection of shareholders); and
 
          (4) the  signatures  on  the  written  redemption  request  have  been
     guaranteed by a bank, broker-dealer, municipal securities broker or dealer,
     government  securities dealer or  broker, credit union, a  member firm of a
     national securities exchange, registered securities association or clearing
     agency, or savings association (the purpose of a signature guarantee is  to
     protect  shareholders against the possibility of fraud). The transfer agent
     may reject redemption instructions if the guarantor is neither a member  of
     nor  a participant  in a  signature guarantee  program (currently  known as
     'STAMPSM').
 
     Additional  supporting  documents  may  be  required  for  redemptions   by
corporations, executors, administrators, trustees and guardians.
 
OTHER REDEMPTION POLICIES
 
Signature  guarantees (as described  above) are required  in connection with any
redemption of  shares  by mail  and  share ownership  transfer  requests.  These
requirements may be waived by the Fund in certain instances.
 
     If the shares to be redeemed represent an investment for which the Fund has
not  yet  received good  funds, the  Fund reserves  the right  not to  honor the
redemption request until such time as it has assured itself that good funds have
been collected which may take  15 or more business  days. If purchases are  made
with good funds, no redemption delay would occur.
 
     Due  to the relatively  high cost of  maintaining a Fund  account, the Fund
reserves the right  to redeem,  upon not  less than  45 days'  notice, any  Fund
account reduced by a shareholder to a value of $500 or less.
 
     PaineWebber has established procedures pursuant to which shares of the Fund
held  by  a  PaineWebber  client  having  a  deficiency  (i.e.,  amount  owed to
PaineWebber resulting  from  Account activity  or  otherwise and  other  amounts
authorized  by the client to be paid to others from the Account, less the amount
of any free credit cash balance)  in his Account will be redeemed  automatically
to  the extent of that deficiency, unless the client notifies PaineWebber to the
contrary in advance. The amount of the redemption will be the lesser of (a)  the
total  net asset value  of Fund shares held  in the client's  Account or (b) the
deficiency in  the  client's  cash account  at  the  close of  business  on  the
redemption    day   adjusted    for   purchase   and    sale   transactions   in
 
                                       12
 
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
other  securities  settling  on  the  following  business  day.  Accordingly,  a
PaineWebber  client who  has previously  consented to  this automatic redemption
procedure and who wishes to pay for a securities transaction other than  through
such automatic redemption procedure must do so not later than the day before the
settlement date for that transaction.
 
                               EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE
 
Shares  of the  Fund may  be exchanged  for shares  of other PaineWebber/Kidder,
Peabody  funds,  to  the  extent  such  shares  are  offered  for  sale  in  the
shareholder's  state of residence. For a list of the PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody
funds for which shares may be exchanged, please see 'Exchange of Shares' in  the
Statement of Additional Information.
 
     Although  the Fund currently  imposes no limit  on the number  of times the
Exchange Privilege may be exercised by any shareholder, the Fund may impose such
limits in the future,  in accordance with applicable  provisions of the Act  and
rules  thereunder.  In addition,  the Exchange  Privilege  may be  terminated or
revised at any time upon 60 days' prior written notice to Fund shareholders, and
is available only to residents of states in which exchanges are permitted  under
state  law. The exchange of shares of one  fund for shares of another is treated
for Federal income tax purposes as a sale of the shares given in exchange by the
shareholder, so that a shareholder  may recognize a taxable  gain or loss on  an
exchange,  although  a  shareholder's  losses may  be  limited.  See 'Dividends,
Distributions and Taxes.'
 
     Upon receipt of proper instructions and all necessary supporting documents,
Fund shares submitted for exchange are redeemed at their current net asset value
next determined  and  simultaneously  invested  in  shares  of  the  fund  being
acquired.  Settlement of  the exchange  would generally  occur one  business day
after the date on which  the request for exchange  was received in proper  form,
unless  the dollar amount of the transaction  exceeds 5% of the Fund's total net
assets on  any given  day, in  which case,  settlement would  occur within  five
business  days after the date on which  the request for exchange was received in
proper form. The proceeds of a redemption of Fund shares made to facilitate  the
exchange  of those shares for  shares of another fund must  be equal to at least
(1) the minimum initial  investment requirement imposed by  the fund into  which
the  exchange is being  sought if the  shareholder seeking the  exchange has not
previously invested  in  that fund  or  (2) the  minimum  subsequent  investment
requirement  imposed by the fund into which  the exchange is being sought if the
shareholder has previously made an investment in that fund.
 
     A shareholder of the Fund wishing to exercise the Exchange Privilege should
obtain from PaineWebber a copy of the current prospectus of the fund into  which
an  exchange is being sought and  review that prospectus carefully before making
the exchange. PaineWebber reserves the right  to reject any exchange request  at
any  time. Prior  to or concurrently  with the  delivery of a  confirmation of a
shareholder's exchange transaction, PaineWebber will deliver to that shareholder
a copy of the prospectus of the fund into which the exchange is being made.
 
                                THE DISTRIBUTOR
 
PaineWebber acts as distributor of the Fund's shares pursuant to a  Distribution
Agreement  dated April  13, 1995. To  reimburse PaineWebber for  the services it
provides and for the expenses it
 
                                       13
 
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

bears under  the  Distribution Agreement,  the  Fund  has adopted  the  Plan  of
Distribution  under the Act. The Plan  of Distribution was most recently amended
by the Board of Directors of the Fund on December 16, 1994 to substitute therein
the name  of  the new  distributor,  PaineWebber, for  the  former  distributor,
Kidder, Peabody & Co. Incorporated.

 

     The  Plan of Distribution provides that  the Fund reimburse PaineWebber its
expenses for distribution of the Fund's shares a fee at the annual rate of up to
 .12% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The expenses that may be reimbursed
include, but are  not limited  to, compensation  to and  expenses of  Investment
Executives  and  other  employees  of  PaineWebber  who  engage  in  or  support
distribution of the Fund's shares or  who service shareholder accounts, and  the
preparation,  printing  and  distribution of  sales  literature  and advertising
materials. PaineWebber anticipates that the  amount of expenses reimbursed  will
not exceed the amount of expenses incurred by PaineWebber and that there will be
no  carry  over of  expenses  from one  year  to the  next.  The expenses  to be
reimbursed are for activities primarily intended to result in the sale of shares
of the  Fund  and  the  maintenance  of  Fund  accounts  and  account  balances.
PaineWebber  currently intends that  approximately .10% per  annum of the Fund's
average  daily  net   assets  will   be  paid  to   its  Investment   Executives
proportionately in respect of Fund share balances maintained by their respective
clients and the balance on other activities. For the fiscal year ended March 31,
1995, the Fund reimbursed .12% of its average daily net assets to PaineWebber.

 
     Pursuant  to  the Plan  of  Distribution, PaineWebber  provides  the Fund's
Directors, at least  quarterly, with a  written report of  the amounts  expended
under  the  Plan of  Distribution.  The report  includes  an itemization  of the
distribution expenses incurred  by PaineWebber  on behalf  of the  Fund and  the
purpose  of  such  expenditures.  In  their  quarterly  review  of  the  Plan of
Distribution, the Directors consider its continued appropriateness and the level
of compensation provided  therein. For  the fiscal  year ended  March 31,  1995,
PaineWebber  and  Kidder, Peabody  &  Co. Incorporated  ('Kidder  Peabody'), the
Fund's predecessor distributor, incurred distribution expenses of  approximately
$          ,  of which  approximately  $         was  recovered  in the  form of
reimbursements made by the Fund to  PaineWebber and Kidder, Peabody at the  rate
provided in the Plan of Distribution.
 

     The  Plan of Distribution remains in effect for as long as such continuance
is approved annually  by vote of  the Directors, including  a majority of  those
Directors  who are  not interested  persons and who  have no  direct or indirect
financial interest in the Plan of Distribution ('Rule 12b-1 Directors'), cast in
person at a meeting called for such purpose. The Plan of Distribution may not be
amended to increase materially the amount to be spent for the services described
therein without  approval of  the shareholders  of the  Fund, and  all  material
amendments of the Plan of Distribution must also be approved by the Directors in
the  manner described above. The  Plan of Distribution may  be terminated at any
time, by vote of a majority of  the Rule 12b-1 Directors as described above,  or
by vote by the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the
Fund,  as defined in the Act. So long  as the Plan of Distribution is in effect,
the election and nomination of Directors  who are not interested persons of  the
Fund  shall  be  committed  to  the discretion  of  the  Directors  who  are not
interested persons. The Directors have determined that, in their judgment, there
is a reasonable likelihood that the  Plan of Distribution benefits the Fund  and
its shareholders.

                       DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES
 
The  Fund ordinarily declares dividends daily. Dividends are paid each month and
are reinvested in  additional shares or,  at the shareholder's  option, paid  in
cash. Dividends are declared on each day that the Fund is open for business. The
Fund's earnings for Saturdays, Sundays and holidays are declared as dividends on
the  preceding business day. If a shareholder  redeems all shares in his account
at any time during the month, all dividends to which the shareholder is entitled
are paid to  him along  with the proceeds  of the  redemption. Distributions  of
realized  securities profits, if any, generally are declared and paid at or near
the end of the Fund's fiscal  year and at the end  of the calendar year and  are
reinvested  in additional shares or, at  the shareholder's option, paid in cash.
The Fund does not expect to realize long-term capital gains. The Fund intends to
maintain a  net  asset value  of  $1.00 per  share  for purposes  of  sales  and
redemptions.  To effectuate this policy,  the Fund, under certain circumstances,
may consider selling portfolio instruments prior to maturity to realize  capital
gains   or  losses,  not   declaring  dividends  and   distributions  or  paying
distributions from capital or capital gains. See also 'Investment Objective  and
Management Policies' and 'Determination of Net Asset Value.'
 
     The Fund qualified for its fiscal year ended March 31, 1995, and intends to
remain qualified, as a 'regulated investment company' under the Internal Revenue
Code  of 1986, as amended  (the 'Code'). As a  regulated investment company, the
Fund pays no Federal income tax on its income and gains which it distributes  to
shareholders,  provided the Fund distributes at  least 90% of its net investment
income and net short-term capital gains for each year.
 
     Dividends of net investment income (i.e., interest income, net of expenses)
and distributions of net short-term capital gains are taxable to shareholders as
ordinary income,  whether  paid in  cash  or reinvested  in  additional  shares.
Dividends paid by the Fund will not qualify for the dividends received deduction
allowed for corporations because the Fund's income will not consist of dividends
paid by U.S. corporations. Distributions of net long-term capital gains, if any,
are  taxable  as long-term  capital gains  regardless  of the  length of  time a
shareholder has held his shares.
 
     Any gain or loss  realized upon a  sale or redemption of  Fund shares by  a
shareholder  who is  not a  dealer in  securities will  generally be  treated as
long-term capital gain or loss  if the shares have been  held for more than  one
year,  and otherwise as short-term capital gain  or loss. Any loss realized by a
shareholder on the sale or redemption of Fund shares held for six months or less
will be treated as  long-term capital loss,  however, to the  extent of any  net
long-term capital gain distributions received by the shareholder with respect to
such  shares. Any loss realized  on a sale, redemption  or exchange of shares of
the Fund  by a  shareholder will  be disallowed  to the  extent the  shares  are
replaced  within a  61-day period (beginning  30 days before  the disposition of
shares). Shares  purchased  pursuant to  the  reinvestment of  a  dividend  will
constitute a replacement of shares.
 
     The Fund may be required to withhold U.S. Federal income tax at the rate of
31% ('backup withholding') of all taxable distributions, payable to shareholders
who  fail to provide the Fund  with their correct taxpayer identification number
or to make required  certifications, or who have  been notified by the  Internal
Revenue   Service  that  they  are  subject  to  backup  withholding.  Corporate
shareholders and other shareholders specified in  the Code are exempt from  such
 
                                       15
 
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
backup  withholding. Backup  withholding is not  an additional  tax. Any amounts
withheld may  be  credited  against  a shareholder's  U.S.  Federal  income  tax
liability.
 
     Dividends  of  net investment  income and  distributions of  net short-term
capital gains  made to  a  non-resident alien  individual,  a foreign  trust  or
estate,  foreign corporation, or  foreign partnership not engaged  in a trade or
business in the United  States will be  subject to U.S.  withholding tax at  the
rate of 30% (or lower treaty rate) upon the gross amount of the dividend.
 
     Statements  as  to  the  tax status  of  each  shareholder's  dividends and
distributions are mailed annually by the Fund's transfer agent. Shareholders are
urged to  consult their  own tax  advisers regarding  specific questions  as  to
Federal, state or local taxes.
 
                        DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE
 
The  Fund's net asset value per share is determined daily at 12:00 noon, Eastern
time, Monday through Friday, except  that net asset value  is not computed on  a
day  in which no orders  to purchase, sell, exchange  or redeem Fund shares have
been received, any day on  which there is not  sufficient trading in the  Fund's
portfolio  securities  that  the  Fund's  net asset  value  per  share  might be
materially affected by changes in the  value of such portfolio securities or  on
days  on which the New  York Stock Exchange is not  open for trading. The Fund's
net asset value per share is computed by dividing the value of the net assets of
the Fund (i.e., the value of its assets less liabilities) by the total number of
shares outstanding. Expenses and fees of the Fund, including PaineWebber's  fee,
are  accrued daily  and taken  into account for  the purpose  of determining net
asset value. It is  the policy of the  Fund to attempt to  maintain a net  asset
value of $1.00 per share for purposes of sales and redemptions; accordingly, the
Fund  employs the  amortized cost  method of  valuing its  portfolio securities.
There can  be no  assurance that  the Fund  will always  be able  to maintain  a
constant  net asset value of $1.00  per share. Further information regarding the
Fund's  valuation  policies  is  contained   in  the  Statement  of   Additional
Information.
 
            CUSTODIAN AND TRANSFER, DIVIDEND AND RECORDKEEPING AGENT
 
IFTC,  127 West 10th Street,  Kansas City, Missouri 64105,  acts as custodian of
the  Fund's  investments.  PFPC  Inc.,  a  subsidiary  of  PNC  Bank,   National
Association,  whose  principal  address  is  400  Bellevue  Parkway, Wilmington,
Delaware 19809, acts as the Fund's transfer, dividend and recordkeeping agent.
 
                        COUNSEL AND INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
 
Sullivan & Cromwell, 125 Broad Street, New York, New York 10004, is counsel  for
the  Fund. Deloitte & Touche LLP, Two World Financial Center, New York, New York
10281, has been selected as independent auditors of the Fund.
 
                     ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUND
 
The Fund was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on February 2,
1983 and commenced operations on May 17, 1983.
 
                                       16

     The authorized common stock of  the Fund consists of 5,000,000,000  shares,
par  value of $.01 per share. Each share  has one vote and, when issued and paid
for in accordance with the terms of offering, is fully paid and  non-assessable.
Shares  have no  preemptive, subscription  or conversion  rights and  are freely
transferable.
 
     As used in this Prospectus when  referring to the approvals to be  obtained
from  shareholders, the term 'majority' means the  vote of the lesser of (1) 67%
of the Fund's shares present at a meeting if the holders of more than 50% of the
outstanding shares are present in  person or by proxy, or  (2) more than 50%  of
the Fund's outstanding shares.
 
     Unless  otherwise required by the Act,  ordinarily it will not be necessary
for the  Fund to  hold meetings  of  shareholders annually.  As a  result,  Fund
shareholders  may  not  consider each  year  the  election of  Directors  or the
appointment of independent  auditors. However, pursuant  to the Fund's  By-Laws,
the  holders of at least 10% of the  shares outstanding and entitled to vote may
require the Fund to hold a special meeting of shareholders for any purpose. Fund
shareholders may remove a Director by the affirmative vote of a majority of  the
Fund's  outstanding voting shares. In addition, the Board of Directors will call
a meeting of shareholders for the purpose of electing Directors if, at any time,
less than a majority of the Directors holding office at the time were elected by
shareholders.

'Additional Information About the Fund.' The Fund may not:

     quotations are not readily available;
 
          3. Borrow money except from banks for temporary or emergency purposes,

     exceed  10%, 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) valued  at the lesser  of cost or  value less liabilities
     (not including the amount borrowed) at the time the borrowing is made.  The
     borrowings will be repaid before any additional investments are made;
 
          4.  Pledge, hypothecate,  mortgage or  otherwise encumber  its assets,
     except in an amount up to  10% of the value of  its net assets but only  to

     in the Fund's prospectus;
 
          10. Invest in securities of other investment companies, except as they

     Commission    (the   'SEC')   and   the    Fund's   Board   of   Directors,

     including maintenance of collateral of the  borrower equal at all times  to
     the current value of the securities loaned.

                     INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND OTHER SERVICES
 
INVESTMENT ADVISER AND ADMINISTRATOR
 
PaineWebber, the  Fund's  investment  adviser and  administrator,  and  Mitchell
Hutchins,  the  Fund's sub-adviser  and sub-administrator,  are located  at 1285
Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10019.
 
     Mitchell Hutchins  manages  the Fund's  portfolio  in accordance  with  the
stated  policies of the  Fund, subject to  the supervision and  direction of the
Fund's Board of Directors. Mitchell Hutchins makes investment decisions for  the
Fund  and places  the purchase  and sale  orders for  portfolio transactions. In
addition, Mitchell Hutchins pays the salaries of all officers and employees  who
are  employed by  both it and  the Fund, maintains  office facilities, furnishes
statistical and  research  data,  clerical help,  accounting,  data  processing,
bookkeeping,  internal auditing  and legal  services and  certain other services
required by the Fund, prepares reports to shareholders of the Fund, tax  returns
to and filings with the SEC and state Blue Sky authorities and generally assists
in all aspects of the Fund's operations. Mitchell Hutchins bears all expenses in
connection with the performance of its services.
 
     Expenses  incurred in the operation of the Fund, including, but not limited
to, taxes, interest, brokerage fees and  commissions, if any, fees of  Directors
who  are not officers,  directors shareholders or  employees of PaineWebber, SEC
fees and related  expenses, state Blue  Sky qualification fees,  charges of  the
custodian  and transfer, dividend and  recordkeeping agent, charges and expenses
of any outside service used for  pricing of the Fund's portfolio securities  and
calculating  net asset value,  certain insurance premiums,  outside auditing and
legal expenses, and  costs of  maintenance of  corporate existence,  shareholder
services,  printing of prospectuses and statements of additional information for
distribution to shareholders, shareholders' reports and corporate meetings,  are
borne  by the Fund.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  PaineWebber currently bears
the costs of printing and distributing prospectuses and statements of additional
information (except those used  for regulatory purposes  or for distribution  to
shareholders of the Fund).

     The Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement, dated April 13, 1995,
shall  continue  automatically  for  successive  annual  periods,  provided such
continuance is  specifically approved  at least  annually by  (i) the  Board  of
Directors  of the Fund or (ii) vote of  the holders of a majority, as defined in
the Act, of  the outstanding  voting securities of  the Fund,  provided that  in
either event the continuance is also approved by a majority of the Directors who
are  not 'interested persons,' as defined in the Act, of the Fund or PaineWebber
or Mitchell Hutchins, by vote cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose
of voting on such approval. The Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement
is terminable without penalty, on 60 days' notice, by the Board of Directors  of
the  Fund or by  vote of the  holders of a  majority of the  Fund's shares or by
PaineWebber. The Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement will terminate
automatically in the event of its assignment.
 
     As compensation for PaineWebber's services,  the Fund pays a fee,  computed
daily  and paid monthly, at  an annual rate of .50%  of the Fund's average daily
net assets. The  Fund has  paid to Kidder  Peabody Asset  Management, Inc.,  the
Fund's  predecessor investment adviser and  administrator, total compensation of
$2,126,247, $1,832,861 and $        for the  fiscal years ended March 31,  1993,
1994  and 1995, respectively. PaineWebber has agreed  that if in any fiscal year
the aggregate expenses of  the Fund (including fees  pursuant to the  Investment
Advisory  and Administration Agreement but  excluding interest, taxes, brokerage
and extraordinary expenses) exceed  the expense limitation  of any state  having
jurisdiction  over the Fund, PaineWebber will reimburse the Fund for such excess
expense. This expense reimbursement obligation is  not limited to the amount  of
PaineWebber's  fees.  Such expense  reimbursement,  if any,  will  be estimated,
reconciled and paid  on a monthly  basis. The Fund  believes that currently  the
most  stringent state expense limitations are 2 1/2% of the first $30 million of
the average value  of the  Fund's net  assets, 2% of  the next  $70 million  and
1  1/2% of the  remaining net assets of  the Fund. During  the fiscal year ended
March 31, 1995, the Fund's expenses did not exceed such limitations.
 
     PaineWebber shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law
or for any loss suffered by the Fund in connection with the matters to which the
Investment Advisory  and Administration  Agreement relates,  except for  a  loss
resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in
the  performance  of  its  duties  or  from  reckless  disregard  by  it  of its
obligations  and  duties  under  the  Investment  Advisory  and   Administration
Agreement.
 
DISTRIBUTOR
 
PaineWebber, as distributor, conducts a continuous offering of the Fund's shares
and  is acting  on a  best efforts  basis. See  'The Distributor'  in the Fund's
prospectus.
 
     The Directors believe that the Fund's expenditures under the Fund's Plan of
Distribution pursuant to  Rule 12b-1 benefit  the Fund and  its shareholders  by
providing better shareholder services. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995,

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
 
Deloitte & Touche  LLP, Two World  Financial Center, New  York, New York  10281,
acts  as independent auditors for the Fund.  In such capacity, Deloitte & Touche
LLP audits the Fund's annual financial statements.

for the Fund.
 
                             PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
 
Purchases and sales of portfolio securities usually are principal  transactions.
Portfolio  securities normally are purchased directly from the issuer or from an
underwriter or market maker for the  securities. There usually are no  brokerage
commissions  paid by the Fund for such purchases. Purchases from dealers serving
as market makers may include the spread  between the bid and asked price.  While
Mitchell  Hutchins generally seeks competitive  spreads or commissions, the Fund
may not  necessarily pay  the  lowest spread  or  commission available  on  each
transaction. To date, no brokerage commissions have been incurred.
 
     Transactions  are allocated to various dealers  by Mitchell Hutchins in its
best judgment. The primary  consideration is prompt  and effective execution  of
orders  at  the most  favorable price.  Subject  to that  primary consideration,
dealers may be selected  for research, statistical or  other services to  enable
Mitchell Hutchins to supplement its own research and analysis with the views and
information of other securities firms.
 
     Information  so  received  supplements  but does  not  replace  that  to be
provided by Mitchell Hutchins, and the fees of Mitchell Hutchins are not reduced
as a  consequence of  the receipt  of any  such supplemental  information.  Such
information  may be  useful to  Mitchell Hutchins in  serving both  the Fund and
other  clients  and,  conversely,  supplemental  information  obtained  by   the
placement  of business of  other clients may  be useful to  Mitchell Hutchins in
carrying out its obligations to the Fund.
 
     Investment decisions for the Fund are made independently from those of  any
other funds managed by Mitchell Hutchins. If, however, funds managed by Mitchell
Hutchins  are  simultaneously  engaged  in  the purchase  or  sale  of  the same
security, the transactions are averaged as  to price and allocated equitably  to
each fund. In some cases, this system might
 
                                       8

adversely  affect the  price paid  or received by  the Fund  or the  size of the
position obtainable for the Fund.
 
     No portfolio  transactions are  executed through  PaineWebber.  PaineWebber
engages  in transactions  in repurchase  agreements and acts  as a  dealer in or
underwriter of securities  of the  U.S. Government and  certain U.S.  Government
agencies.  PaineWebber's activities may  have some effect on  the market for the
Fund's portfolio of  such securities  and PaineWebber  may be  competing in  the
market place with the Fund in the purchase and sale of such securities.
 
                              REDEMPTION OF SHARES
 
The  right of redemption may  be suspended or the  date of payment postponed (a)
for any period during which the New York Stock Exchange ('NYSE') is closed other
than for customary weekend and holiday closings, (b) when trading in the markets
the Fund normally utilizes  is restricted, or when  an emergency, as defined  by
the  rules and  regulations of  the SEC, exists,  making disposal  of the Fund's
investments or determination of its net asset value not reasonably  practicable,
or  (c) for any other periods  as the SEC by order  may permit for protection of
the Fund's shareholders.
 
                               EXCHANGE OF SHARES
 
Shares  of   the  Fund   may  be   exchanged  for   shares  of   the   following
PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody funds:

suspension  of the redemption of Fund shares  under Section 22(e) of the Act, or
(b) the Fund temporarily delays or ceases  the sale of its shares because it  is
unable   to  invest  amounts  effectively  in  accordance  with  its  applicable
investment objective, policies and restrictions.
 
                       DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES
 
The Fund ordinarily declares  dividends from its net  investment income on  each
day  that  the  Fund or  IFTC  is open  for  business. The  Fund's  earnings for
Saturdays, Sundays  and holidays  are  declared as  dividends on  the  preceding
business  day. Dividends  are paid each  month and are  reinvested in additional
shares or, at the shareholder's option,  paid in cash. If a shareholder  redeems
all  shares in his account at any time  during the month, all dividends to which
the shareholder is  entitled are  paid to  him along  with the  proceeds of  the
redemption.  Distributions of realized securities profits, if any, generally are
declared and paid at or near the end of the
 
                                       9
 
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fund's fiscal year and  at the end  of the calendar year  and are reinvested  in
additional shares or, at the shareholder's option, paid in cash.
 
     The  Fund intends  to maintain  a net  asset value  of $1.00  per share for
purposes of sales and  redemptions. To effectuate this  policy, the Fund,  under
certain  circumstances,  may  consider selling  portfolio  instruments  prior to
maturity to  realize  capital  gains  or losses,  not  declaring  dividends  and
distributions  or  paying  distributions from  capital  or a  capital  gain. See
'Determination of Net Asset Value.'
 
     The Fund qualified for its fiscal year ended March 31, 1995, and intends to
remain qualified, as a 'regulated investment company' under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as  amended (the 'Code'). As  a regulated investment company,  the
Fund  pays no Federal income tax on its income and gains which it distributes to
shareholders, provided it distributes at least 90% of its net investment  income
and  net  short-term capital  gains for  each  year. To  qualify as  a regulated
investment company, the Fund must, among  other things, (a) derive at least  90%
of  its annual gross  income from dividends, interest,  payments with respect to
securities loans,  gains  from  the  sale  or  other  disposition  of  stock  or
securities,  and other  income derived  with respect  to the  Fund's business of
investing in such stock or  securities; (b) derive less  than 30% of its  annual
gross  income from the sale or other disposition of stock or securities held for
less than three months; and  (c) diversify its holdings so  that, at the end  of
each  quarter of the taxable year,  (i) at least 50% of  the value of the Fund's
assets is represented by cash,  U.S. Government securities and other  securities
limited,  in respect of any one issuer, to  an amount not greater than 5% of the
value of the Fund's assets and 10% of the outstanding voting securities of  such
issuer, and (ii) not more than 25% of the value of the assets is invested in the
securities  of any one issuer (other  than U.S. Government securities). The term
'regulated investment company' does not  imply the supervision of management  or
investment practices or policies by any governmental agency.
 
     The  Fund will be subject to a nondeductible 4% excise tax to the extent it
fails to distribute by  the end of  any calendar year  substantially all of  its
ordinary  income for  that year  and capital  gain net  income for  the one-year
period ending on October 31 of that year, plus certain other amounts.
 
     The Code provides that dividends declared in October, November or  December
payable in January of the following year will be treated as having been received
by  shareholders on December 31 of the  year in which declared. Under this rule,
therefore, a shareholder may  be taxed in a  year on dividends or  distributions
actually received in the following year.
 
     Investors  should  consider carefully  the  tax implications  of purchasing
shares of the  Fund just  prior to  the declaration  of a  dividend. Although  a
dividend  paid shortly after shares have been purchased is in effect a return of
investment, it is subject to tax.
 
     The Fund may be subject to state or local tax in certain states where it is
deemed to be doing business. Furthermore, in those states which have such income
tax laws, the  tax treatment of  the Fund  and of shareholders  with respect  to
distributions by the Fund may differ from Federal tax treatment.
 
     Statements  as  to  the  tax status  of  each  shareholder's  dividends and
distributions are mailed annually by the Fund's transfer agent. Shareholders are
urged to  consult their  own tax  advisers regarding  specific questions  as  to
Federal, state or local taxes.

                        DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE
 
The  net asset value  of the Fund will  not be calculated  on the following NYSE
holidays:  New  Year's  Day,  Washington's  Birthday  (observed),  Good  Friday,
Memorial   Day  (observed),  Independence  Day,   Labor  Day,  Thanksgiving  and
Christmas. If one of these holidays falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the NYSE will
be closed on  the preceding Friday  or the following  Monday, respectively.  The
days  on which net asset  value is determined are  the Fund's business days. The
Fund's net asset value per  share is computed by dividing  the value of the  net
assets of the Fund (i.e., the value of its assets less liabilities) by the total
number  of  shares  outstanding.  Expenses  and  fees  of  the  Fund,  including
PaineWebber's fee, are accrued daily and  taken into account for the purpose  of
determining net asset value. It is the policy of the Fund to attempt to maintain
a  net asset  value of  $1.00 per  share for  purposes of  sales and redemptions
although there can be no assurance that the Fund will always be able to do so.
 
     The Fund maintains a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of 90  days
or  less, purchases only instruments having  remaining maturities of 397 days or
less and invests only in securities  which present minimal credit risks and  are
of high quality as determined by any major rating service or, in the case of any
instrument  that is not rated, of comparable  quality as determined by the Board
of Directors.
 
     The valuation  of  the Fund's  portfolio  securities is  based  upon  their
amortized  cost, which  does not take  into account unrealized  capital gains or
losses. This involves valuing an instrument at its cost and thereafter  assuming
a  constant accretion  or amortization to  maturity of any  discount or premium,
respectively, regardless  of the  impact of  fluctuating interest  rates on  the
market  value  of  the  instrument.  While  this  method  provides  certainty in
valuation, it  may  result in  periods  during  which value,  as  determined  by
amortized  cost, is higher or lower than the  price the Fund would receive if it
sold the instrument.
 
     In connection  with  the  utilization  of  the  amortized  cost  method  of
valuation,   the  Board  of  Directors  has  established  procedures  reasonably
designed,  taking  into  account  current  market  conditions  and  the   Fund's
investment  objective, to  stabilize net asset  value per share  at $1.00. These
procedures include periodic review, as the Board of Directors deems  appropriate
and  at such intervals as are reasonable  in light of current market conditions,
of the relationship between the amortized cost per share and the net asset value
per share based upon available indications of value. In such review, investments
for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the most  recent
bid  or yield  equivalent for  such securities  or for  securities of comparable
maturity, quality and type,  as obtained from  one or more  of the major  market
makers  for the securities to be valued. Other investments and assets are valued
at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
 
     The extent of any deviation between  the Fund's net asset value based  upon
available  market quotations or market equivalents  and $1.00 per share based on
amortized cost is examined by the Board of Directors. If such deviation  exceeds
 .50  of 1%, the Board  of Directors promptly will  consider what action, if any,
will be  initiated.  In the  event  the Board  of  Directors determines  that  a
deviation  exists which may result in  material dilution or other unfair results
to shareholders, it has agreed to take  such corrective action as it regards  as
necessary  and appropriate,  including: selling  portfolio instruments  prior to
maturity to realize  capital gains  or losses  or to  shorten average  portfolio
maturity; not declaring dividends or paying distributions
 
                                       11

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
from  capital or capital gains; redeeming shares  in kind; or establishing a net
asset value per share by using available market quotations.
 
                 DETERMINATION OF CURRENT AND EFFECTIVE YIELDS
 
The Fund provides  current and  effective yield  quotations based  on its  daily
dividends.  See 'Dividends, Distributions  and Taxes' in  the Fund's prospectus.
Such quotations  are  made  in  reports,  sales  literature  and  advertisements
published by the Fund.
 
     Current  yield  is  computed by  determining  the net  change  exclusive of
capital changes in  the value of  a hypothetical pre-existing  account having  a
balance  of one share at the beginning  of a seven day calendar period, dividing
the net change in account value by the value of the account at the beginning  of
the  period and multiplying the  return over the seven  day period by 365/7. For
purposes of the calculation, net change  in account value reflects the value  of
additional shares purchased with dividends from the original share and dividends
declared on both the original share and any such additional shares, but does not
reflect  realized gains  or losses  or unrealized  appreciation or depreciation.
Effective yield  is  computed  by  annualizing the  seven-day  return  with  all
dividends reinvested in additional shares of the Fund.
 
     Current   and   effective  yields   fluctuate   and  are   not  necessarily
representative of future results. The shareholder should remember that yield  is
a  function  of  the type  and  quality  of the  instruments  in  the portfolio,
portfolio  maturity  and  operating  expenses.  See  'Investment  Objective  and
Management Policies' in the Fund's prospectus and 'Investment Advisory and Other
Services'  above. Current and effective yield information is useful in reviewing
the Fund's performance but because  current and effective yields will  fluctuate
such  information may  not provide  a basis  for comparison  with bank deposits,
other investments which pay a fixed yield  for a stated period of time or  other
investment companies which may use a different method of calculating yield.
 
     A  shareholder's principal in  the Fund is  not guaranteed. See 'Dividends,
Distributions and Taxes'  and 'Determination  of Net  Asset Value'  above for  a
discussion of the manner in which the Fund's price per share is determined.
 
     Historical and comparative yield information may be presented by the Fund.
 
                     ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUND
 
The Fund was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on February 2,
1983 and commenced operations on May 17, 1983.
 
     The  authorized common stock of the  Fund consists of 5,000,000,000 shares,
par value of $.01 per share. Each share  has one vote and, when issued and  paid
for  in accordance with the terms of offering, is fully paid and non-assessable.
Shares have  no preemptive,  subscription or  conversion rights  and are  freely
transferable.
 
     As  used in this Statement of  Additional Information when referring to the
approvals to be obtained from shareholders,  the term 'majority' means the  vote
of  the lesser  of (1)  67% of  the Fund's  shares present  at a  meeting if the
holders of more than 50% of the  outstanding shares are present in person or  by
proxy, or (2) more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares.
 
     Unless  otherwise required by the Act,  ordinarily it will not be necessary
for the  Fund to  hold meetings  of  shareholders annually.  As a  result,  Fund
shareholders  may  not  consider each  year  the  election of  Directors  or the
appointment of independent auditors. However, pursuant to
 
                                       12
 
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the Fund's By-Laws, the holders  of at least 10%  of the shares outstanding  and
entitled  to vote may require the Fund to hold a special meeting of shareholders
for any purpose. Fund shareholders may remove a Director by the affirmative vote
of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting shares. In addition, the Board of
Directors will  call a  meeting  of shareholders  for  the purpose  of  electing
Directors  if, at any time, less than a majority of the Directors holding office
at the time were elected by shareholders.
 
     The prospectus and this Statement of Additional Information do not  contain
all  the information  set forth in  the Registration Statement  and the exhibits
relating thereto, which the Fund has filed with the SEC under the Securities Act
of 1933 and the Act, to which reference is hereby made.

Maryland, as amended effective February 8, 1988.
 
     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of  1933 may be permitted to directors,  officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant and the principal underwriter 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  and the principal underwriter  in connection with the
successful defense of any  action, suit or proceeding)  is asserted against  the
Registrant  by such  director, officer  or controlling  person or  the principal
underwriter in connection with the shares 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.
