                 Liquid Institutional   Reserves Money Market Fund


                                Money Market Fund
                   INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, STRATEGIES AND RISKS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FUND OBJECTIVE


High current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital
and the maintenance of liquidity through investments in a diversified portfolio
of high quality, short-term, U.S. dollar denominated money market instruments.


PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES


The fund is a money market fund and seeks to maintain a stable price of $1.00
per share. The fund invests in a diversified portfolio of high quality money
market instruments of governmental and private issuers.

Money market instruments are short-term debt obligations and similar securities.
They also include longer term bonds that have variable interest rates or other
special features that give them the financial characteristics of short-term
debt. The fund invests in foreign money market instruments only if they are
denominated in U.S. dollars.


PaineWebber Incorporated, the fund's investment adviser, has appointed Mitchell
Hutchins Asset Management Inc. to serve as the fund's sub-adviser. Mitchell
Hutchins selects money market instruments for the fund based on its assessment
of relative values and changes in market and economic conditions.

PRINCIPAL RISKS


An investment in the fund is not a bank deposit and is neither insured nor
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government
agency. While the fund seeks to maintain the value of your investment at $1.00
per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. Money market
instruments generally have a low risk of loss, but they are not risk-free. The
principal risks presented by the fund are:

o CREDIT RISK - Issuers of money market instruments may fail to make payments
  when due, or they may become less willing or less able to do so.

o INTEREST RATE RISK - The value of the fund's investments generally will fall
  when short term interest rates rise and its yield will tend to lag behind
  prevailing rates.

o FOREIGN INVESTING RISK - The value of the fund's investments in foreign
  securities may fall due to adverse political, social and economic developments
  abroad. However, because the fund's foreign investments must be denominated in
  U.S. dollars, it generally is not subject to the risk of changes in currency
  valuations.

More information about these and other risks of an investment in the fund is
provided below in "More About Risks and Investment Strategies."

INFORMATION ON THE FUND'S RECENT HOLDINGS CAN BE FOUND IN ITS CURRENT
ANNUAL/SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS (SEE BACK COVER FOR INFORMATION ON ORDERING THOSE
REPORTS).

RISK/RETURN BAR CHART AND TABLE


The following bar chart and table provide information about the fund's
performance and thus give some indication of the risks of an investment in the
fund. The bar chart shows how the fund's performance has varied from year to
year. The bar chart shows Institutional shares because they have a longer
performance history than Financial Intermediary shares.


The table that follows the bar chart shows the average annual returns over
several time periods for the fund's shares.

The fund's past performance does not necessarily indicate how the fund will
perform in the future.

----------
* The fund and PaineWebber have entered into an expense reimbursement agreement.
PaineWebber has agreed to reimburse the fund to the extent that the fund's
expenses through August 31, 2001 otherwise would exceed the "Net Expenses" rates
for each class as shown above. The fund has agreed to repay PaineWebber for
those reimbursed expenses if it can do so over the following three years without
causing the fund's expenses in any of those years to exceed those "Net Expenses"
rates.


EXAMPLE

This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the fund
with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.


This example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods
indicated and then sell all of your shares at the end of those periods. The
example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the
fund's operating expenses remain the same except for the one year period when
the fund's expenses are lower due to its reimbursement agreement with
PaineWebber. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these
assumptions your costs would be:

                                    1 YEAR      3 YEARS    5 YEARS    10 YEARS

                   INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, STRATEGIES AND RISKS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


FUND OBJECTIVE

High current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital
and the maintenance of liquidity through investments in a diversified portfolio
of high quality, short-term, U.S. dollar denominated money market instruments.


PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES


The fund is a money market fund and seeks to maintain a stable price of $1.00
per share. The fund invests in a diversified portfolio of high quality, U.S.
government money market instruments and in related repurchase agreements.


Money market instruments are short-term debt obligations and similar securities.
They also include longer term bonds that have variable interest rates or other
special features that give them the financial characteristics of short-term
debt.

PaineWebber Incorporated, the fund's investment adviser, has appointed Mitchell
Hutchins Asset Management Inc. to serve as the fund's sub-adviser. Mitchell
Hutchins selects money market instruments for the fund based on its assessment
of relative values and changes in market and economic conditions.

PRINCIPAL RISKS


An investment in the fund is not a bank deposit and is neither insured nor
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government
agency. While the fund seeks to maintain the value of your investment at $1.00
per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. Money market
instruments generally have a low risk of loss, but they are not risk-free. The
principal risks presented by the fund are:

o CREDIT RISK - Issuers of money market instruments may fail to make payments
  when due, or they may become less willing or less able to do so.

o INTEREST RATE RISK - The value of the fund's investments generally will fall
  when short-term interest rates rise and its yield will tend to lag behind
  prevailing rates.

More information about these and other risks of an investment in the fund is
provided below in "More About Risks and Investment Strategies."

RISK/RETURN BAR CHART AND TABLE


The following bar chart and table provide information about the fund's
performance and thus give some indication of the risks of an investment in the
fund. The bar chart shows how the fund's performance has varied from year to
year. The bar chart shows Institutional shares because they were the only class
outstanding for all periods shown.


The table that follows the bar chart shows the average annual returns over
several time periods for the fund's shares.

The fund's past performance does not necessarily indicate how the fund will
perform in the future.

----------
* Because no Financial Intermediary shares were outstanding for a full calendar
year, average annual total return for Financial Intermediary shares is not
included in the table. Performance for Financial Intermediary shares would be
lower because of the 0.25% shareholder servicing fee paid by those shares.

----------
* The fund and PaineWebber have entered into an expense reimbursement agreement.
PaineWebber has agreed to reimburse the fund to the extent that the fund's
expenses through August 31, 2001 otherwise would exceed the "Net Expenses" rates
for each class as shown above. The fund has agreed to repay PaineWebber for
those reimbursed expenses if it can do so over the following three years without
causing the fund's expenses in any of those years to exceed those "Net Expenses"
rates.


EXAMPLE

This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the fund
with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.


This example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods
indicated and then sell all of your shares at the end of those periods. The
example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the
fund's operating expenses remain the same except for the one year period when
the fund's expenses are lower due to its reimbursement agreement with
PaineWebber. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these
assumptions your costs would be:

           Liquid Institutional Reserves     Treasury Securities Fund


                            Treasury Securities Fund
                   INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, STRATEGIES AND RISKS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FUND OBJECTIVE


High current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital
and the maintenance of liquidity through investments in a diversified portfolio
of high quality, short-term, U.S. dollar denominated money market investments.


PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES


The fund is a money market fund and seeks to maintain a stable price of $1.00
per share. The fund invests substantially all its assets in U.S. Treasury money
market instruments that are supported by the full faith and credit of the United
States. These investments pay income that is generally exempt from state and
local income tax.


Money market instruments are short-term debt obligations and similar securities.
They also include longer term bonds that have variable interest rates or other
special features that give them the financial characteristics of short-term
debt.

PaineWebber Incorporated, the fund's investment adviser, has appointed Mitchell
Hutchins Asset Management Inc. to serve as the fund's sub-adviser. Mitchell
Hutchins selects money market instruments for the fund based on its assessment
of relative values and changes in market and economic conditions.

PRINCIPAL RISKS


An investment in the fund is not a bank deposit and is neither insured nor
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government
agency. While the fund seeks to maintain the value of your investment at $1.00
per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. Money market
instruments generally have a low risk of loss, but they are not risk-free. The
principal risks presented by the fund are:

o CREDIT RISK - Issuers of money market instruments may fail to make payments
  when due, or they may become less willing or less able to do so.

o INTEREST RATE RISK - The value of the fund's investments generally will fall
  when short-term interest rates rise and its yield will tend to lag behind
  prevailing rates.

More information about these and other risks of an investment in the fund is
provided below in "More About Risks and Investment Strategies."


INFORMATION ON THE FUND'S RECENT HOLDINGS CAN BE FOUND IN ITS CURRENT
ANNUAL/SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS (SEE BACK COVER FOR INFORMATION ON ORDERING THOSE
REPORTS).

RISK/RETURN BAR CHART AND TABLE


The following bar chart and table provide information about the fund's
performance and thus give some indication of the risks of an investment in the
fund. The bar chart shows how the fund's performance has varied from year to
year. The bar chart shows Institutional shares because they were the only class
outstanding for all the periods shown.


The table that follows the bar chart shows the average annual returns over
several time periods for the fund's shares.

The fund's past performance does not necessarily indicate how the fund will
perform in the future.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PRINCIPAL RISKS


The main risks of investing in the funds are described below. Not all of these
risks apply to each fund. You can find a list of the main risks that apply to a
particular fund under the "Investment Objective, Strategies and Risks" heading
for that fund.

Other risks of investing in a fund, along with further detail about some of the
risks described below, are discussed in the funds' Statement of Additional
Information ("SAI"). Information on how you can obtain the SAI is on the back
cover of this prospectus.


CREDIT RISK. Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of a money market
instrument will not make principal or interest payments when they are due. Even
if an issuer does not default on a payment, a money market instrument's value
may decline if the market believes that the issuer has become less able, or less
willing, to make payments on time. Even the highest quality money market
instruments are subject to some credit risk.


INTEREST RATE RISK. The value of money market instruments generally can be
expected to fall when short-term interest rates rise and to rise when short-term
interest rates fall. Interest rate risk is the risk that interest rates will
rise, so that the value of a fund's investments will fall. Also, a fund's yield
will tend to lag behind changes in prevailing short-term interest rates. This
means that a fund's income will tend to rise more slowly than increases in
short-term interest rates. Similarly, when short-term interest rates are
falling, a fund's income generally will tend to fall more slowly.

FOREIGN INVESTING RISK. Foreign investing involves risks relating to political,
social and economic developments abroad to a greater extent than investing in
the securities of U.S. issuers. In addition, there are differences between U.S.
and foreign regulatory requirements and market practices.

ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

Like all money market funds, the funds are subject to maturity, quality and
diversification requirements designed to help them maintain a stable price of
$1.00 per share. In addition, Mitchell Hutchins may use a number of professional
money management techniques to respond to changing economic and money market
conditions and to shifts in fiscal and monetary policy. These techniques include
varying a fund's composition and weighted average maturity based upon its
assessment of the relative values of various money market instruments and future
interest rate patterns. Mitchell Hutchins also may buy or sell money market
instruments to take advantage of yield differences.


Each fund may invest to a limited extent in shares of similar money market funds
that, for Government Securities Fund and Treasury Securities Fund, have like tax
characteristics.

                           MANAGING YOUR FUND ACCOUNT

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUYING SHARES

The funds accept the settlement of purchase orders only in available federal
funds. Federal funds are funds deposited by a commercial bank in an account at a
Federal Reserve Bank that can be transferred to a similar account of another
bank in one day and thus may be made immediately available to a fund through its
custodian.

Each fund offers two separate classes of shares - Institutional shares and
Financial Intermediary shares - as an economical and convenient means for
institutions to invest short-term funds that they hold for their own account or
hold or manage for others.

o You may purchase Institutional shares if you are an institutional investor.
  PaineWebber Incorporated, the distributor of the fund's shares may, in its
  discretion, make Institutional shares available to individuals or other
  entities.

o You may purchase Financial Intermediary shares only if you are a
  bank or other financial intermediary buying the shares for the benefit of your
  customers. Financial Intermediary shares bear special fees at the annual rate
  of 0.25% of average net assets for services that these financial
  intermediaries provide to the beneficial owners of the Financial Intermediary
  shares.


Unless you specify otherwise, the funds will treat all purchase orders as orders
for Institutional shares.


You may buy fund shares by calling the funds' transfer agent, First Data
Investor Services Group, Inc., at 1-888-LIR-FUND and speaking to a
representative. You may also buy fund shares by contacting your Financial
Advisor at PaineWebber or its correspondent firms, who are then responsible for
sending the order to the transfer agent. The availability of fund shares to
customers of PaineWebber's correspondent firms may vary depending on the
arrangements between PaineWebber and those firms.


You buy shares at the net asset value next determined after receipt and
acceptance of your purchase order by the transfer agent, subject to a fund
receiving payment the same day. Your purchase order will be effective only if
you wire payment in federal funds on the same business day that you place your
order, and your wire must actually be credited to the funds' bank account by a
Federal Reserve Bank that day. Otherwise, the order will be rejected. A business
day is any day that the funds' custodian, the funds' transfer agent and
PaineWebber are open for business.

Orders to buy shares of Money Market Fund and Government Securities Fund
received before noon (Eastern time), will normally be executed as of noon
(Eastern time). Orders received after noon (Eastern time) but before 2:30 p.m.
(Eastern time), will normally be executed as of 2:30 p.m. (Eastern time). Orders
received after 2:30 p.m. (Eastern time) and before 4:30 p.m. (Eastern time),
will normally be executed as of 4:30 p.m. (Eastern time).

Orders to buy shares of Treasury Securities Fund received before noon (Eastern
time), will normally be executed as of noon (Eastern time). Orders received
after noon (Eastern time) but before 2:30 p.m. (Eastern time), will normally be
executed as of 2:30 p.m. (Eastern time).

Each fund reserves the right to advance the time by which orders to buy or sell
its shares must be received by the transfer agent. A fund may do this when the
primary government securities dealers are either closed for business or close
early, or trading in money market instruments is limited due to national
holidays. For example, a fund may advance the time by which orders to buy or
sell its shares must be received by the transfer agent on any day that the New
York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") closes early because trading has been halted for
the day or The Bond Market Association ("BMA") (formerly known as the Public
Securities Association or "PSA") recommends that the securities markets close
early. Frequently, markets close on the afternoon of a business day prior to a
national holiday. Of course, if a fund's usual deadline for receipt by the
transfer agent or orders to buy or sell its shares is earlier than the time at
which markets close, the fund expects to follow its normal schedule. Investors
may call toll-free 1-888-LIR-Fund to inquire whether a fund intends to close
early on a given day.


The funds and PaineWebber reserve the right to reject a purchase order or
suspend the offering of fund shares. PaineWebber may return without notice money
wired to a fund where the investor fails to place a corresponding share purchase
order.

information about these minimums from your financial intermediary.

REMOTE TRADE ENTRY

The funds may offer an electronic trade order entry (RTE) capability to eligible
institutional investors who meet certain conditions. For more information on
this option, contact your Financial Advisor or the transfer agent at
1-888-LIR-FUND.

SELLING SHARES


You may sell your shares by calling the transfer agent at 1-888-LIR-FUND and
speaking with a representative. You also may sell your shares by contacting your
Financial Advisor or correspondent firm (if you previously designated them to
give instructions to the transfer agent on your behalf); they are then
responsible for sending the order to the transfer agent.

Orders to sell shares of Money Market Fund and Government Securities Fund
received before noon (Eastern time), will normally be executed as of noon
(Eastern time). Orders received after noon (Eastern time) but before 2:30 p.m.
(Eastern time), will normally be executed as of 2:30 p.m. (Eastern time). Orders
received after 2:30 p.m. (Eastern time) and before 4:30 p.m. (Eastern time),
will normally be executed as of 4:30 p.m. (Eastern time).

Orders to sell shares of Treasury Securities Fund received before noon (Eastern
time), will normally be executed as of noon (Eastern time). Orders received
after noon (Eastern time) but before 2:30 p.m. (Eastern time), will normally be
executed as of 2:30 p.m. (Eastern time).

As noted above under "Buying Shares," the funds may advance the time for the
transfer agent's receipt of orders to sell shares (e.g., days on which
securities markets close early prior to a national holiday).


Your sales proceeds will be paid in federal funds wired to one or more accounts
you have designated, normally on the business day the sale order is accepted. If
you sell all the shares you own, dividends accrued for the month to date will be
paid in federal funds and wired at the same time to the bank account(s) that you
designate.

Your bank account may not receive the proceeds in a timely manner if a Federal
Reserve Bank is experiencing delay in transfer of funds. Neither the funds,
PaineWebber nor the transfer agent is responsible for the performance of your
bank or any of its intermediaries.

The transfer agent will process your orders to sell shares only if you have on
file with it a properly completed account application, with a signature
guaranteed or other authentication acceptable to the transfer agent. The account
application requires you to designate the bank account(s) or PaineWebber account
for wiring sales proceeds. You must submit any change in the designated
account(s) for sale proceeds in a form acceptable to the transfer agent. The
transfer agent will not place the sales order if the information you provide
does not correspond to the information on your application.

If you have additional questions on selling shares, you should contact your
Financial Advisor or call the transfer agent at 1-888-LIR-FUND.

EXCHANGING SHARES

You may exchange shares of a fund for shares of the same class of another fund
or Mitchell Hutchins LIR Select Money Fund.

has a $10,000,000 minimum for initial purchases and a $100,000 minimum for
subsequent purchases. These minimums apply to initial and subsequent purchases
made through an exchange of shares. All exchanges are based on the next
determined net asset value per share.


Exchange orders are accepted up until 2:30 p.m. (Eastern time). Exchange orders
received after that time will not be effected, and you will have to place an
exchange order before that time on the following business day if you still wish
to effect an exchange. If you exchange all your fund shares, the dividends
accrued on those shares for the month to date also will be invested in the
shares of the other fund into which the exchange is made.

You can place an exchange order by calling the transfer agent at 1-888-LIR-FUND
and speaking with a representative. You also can place an exchange order through
a PaineWebber Financial Advisor or correspondent firm (if you previously
designated them to give instructions to the transfer agent on your behalf), who
is then responsible for sending the order to the transfer agent. You may
exchange Financial Intermediary shares only if you are a bank or other financial
intermediary exchanging the shares for the benefit of your customers.

Shareholders making their initial purchase of another fund through an exchange
should allow more time and must provide the transfer agent with a properly
completed account application for the new fund. These exchange orders should be
received by the transfer agent at least one half hour before the previously
mentioned deadline to allow the transfer agent sufficient time to establish an
account in the new fund in the investor's name. Otherwise the transfer agent may
not be able to effect the exchange.


Exchange transactions must meet the minimum initial investment of the new fund.
There is no minimum for subsequent exchanges between fund accounts once they
have been activated except as noted above.

A fund may modify or terminate the exchange privilege at any time.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT

FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARY SHARES. Financial intermediaries purchasing or holding
shares for their customer accounts may charge those customers for cash
management and other services provided in connection with their accounts. These
charges may include account maintenance fees, compensating balance requirements
or fees based on account transactions, assets or income. The dividends payable
to the financial intermediaries' customers, who are the beneficial owners of the
shares, will be lower than those on Institutional shares by the amount of the
fees paid by the fund for shareholder services. A customer should consider the
terms of his account with a financial intermediary before purchasing shares.

A financial intermediary buying or selling shares for its customers is
responsible for transmitting orders to the transfer agent in accordance with its
customer agreements and the procedures noted above.


INSTITUTIONAL SHARES. PaineWebber or Mitchell Hutchins (not the fund) may pay
shareholder servicing fees to financial institutions that make Institutional
shares available to their customers. The amount of these fees will be negotiated
between PaineWebber or Mitchell Hutchins and the financial institution.


PRICING AND VALUATION

The price of fund shares is based on net asset value and is determined
separately for each class of shares. The net asset value is the total value of a
fund divided by the total number of shares outstanding. In determining net asset
value, each fund values its securities at their amortized cost. This method uses
a constant amortization to maturity of the difference between the cost of the
instrument to the fund and the amount due at maturity. Each fund's net asset
value per share is expected to be $1.00 per share, although this value is not
guaranteed.


The net asset value per share for both Money Market Fund and Government
Securities Fund is normally determined three times each Business Day at

o  12:00 p.m. (Eastern time);
o  2:30 p.m. (Eastern time); and
o  4:30 p.m. (Eastern time).

The net asset value per share for Treasury Securities Fund is determined twice
each Business Day at

o  12:00 p.m. (Eastern time) and
o  2:30 p.m. (Eastern time).


Your price for buying or selling shares will be the net asset value that is next
calculated after a fund accepts your order.


On any day that a fund determines to advance the time by which orders to buy or
sell its shares must be received by the transfer agent as described above under
"Buying Shares," the time for determination of the fund's net asset value per
share will be as of the same time the fund has determined to cease accepting
orders to buy or sell its shares. The fund will not price its shares again on
that business day even if it normally prices its shares more than once each
business day.

                               DIVIDENDS AND TAXES

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DIVIDENDS

Each fund declares dividends daily and pays them monthly. Dividends are paid on
the last business day of a month or upon the sale of all the fund shares in a
shareholder's account.

Each fund distributes any net short-term capital gain annually and anticipates
that any short-term capital gain distribution would be declared during the month
of December in a given year. A fund may make more frequent distributions if
necessary to maintain its share price at $1.00.

Shares earn dividends on the day they are purchased but do not earn dividends on
the day they are sold.

Dividends on Financial Intermediary shares of a fund will be lower than
dividends on its Institutional shares because of the higher expenses borne by
Financial Intermediary shares.

You will receive dividends in additional shares of the same class unless you
elect to have the dividends transmitted by federal funds wire to either a
designated bank account or PaineWebber account. You must notify the transfer
agent in writing in a form acceptable to the transfer agent at least two
business days prior to the end of the month if you wish to change this election
for a particular monthly dividend.

TAXES

The dividends that you receive from a fund generally are subject to federal
income tax regardless of whether you receive them in additional fund shares or
in cash. Shareholders not subject to tax on their income will not be required to
pay tax on amounts distributed to them. The funds' dividends will not qualify
for the dividends-received deduction for corporations.


Some states and localities do not tax dividends that are attributable to
interest on U.S. Treasury securities and certain other government securities
under certain circumstances.

The funds expect that their dividends will be taxed as ordinary income. Each
fund will tell you how you should treat its dividends for tax purposes. You
should not recognize any capital gain on the sale of your shares in a fund so
long as the fund maintains a share price of $1.00.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The following financial highlights tables are intended to help you understand
the funds' financial performance for the past 5 years. Certain information
reflects financial results for a single fund share. In the tables, "total
investment return" represents the rate that an investor would have earned on an
investment in the fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends). Financial
Intermediary shares were not outstanding during the fiscal year ended April 30,
2000 for Government Securities Fund or Treasury Securities Fund and were
outstanding for only limited periods of time prior to that fiscal year for Money
Market Fund and Government Securities Fund.

The information in the financial highlights has been audited by Ernst & Young
LLP, independent auditors, whose reports, along with the funds' financial
statements, are included in the funds' annual report to shareholders. The annual
report may be obtained without charge by calling 1-888-LIR-FUND.

                     THE FUNDS AND THEIR INVESTMENT POLICIES




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

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

     MONEY MARKET FUND'S investment  objective is to earn high current income to
the extent  consistent  with the  preservation of capital and the maintenance of
liquidity  through  investments  in a  diversified  portfolio  of high  quality,
short-term,  U.S.  dollar  denominated  money  market  instruments.  The  fund's
investments include (1) U.S. and foreign government securities,  (2) obligations
of U.S. and foreign banks, (3) commercial paper and other short-term obligations
of U.S. and foreign corporations, partnerships, trusts and similar entities, (4)
repurchase agreements and (5) investment company securities.

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


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

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

     GOVERNMENT  SECURITIES FUND'S investment  objective is to earn high current
income  to the  extent  consistent  with the  preservation  of  capital  and the
maintenance of liquidity through investments in a diversified  portfolio of high
quality,  short-term, U.S. dollar denominated money market instruments. The fund
invests in U.S.  government  securities.  The fund also  invests  in  repurchase
agreements  secured by such securities and in the securities of other investment
companies that invest only in these  instruments.  Income from these  repurchase
agreements  may not be  exempt  from  state  and local  income  taxation.  Under
extraordinary circumstances, however, the fund may temporarily hold cash.


     Each  investor  should  consult  its own tax adviser to  determine  whether
distributions  from the fund derived from interest on its portfolio  investments
are exempt from state income taxation in the investor's own state.

     TREASURY  SECURITIES  FUND'S  investment  objective is to earn high current
income  to the  extent  consistent  with the  preservation  of  capital  and the
maintenance of liquidity through investments in a diversified  portfolio of high
quality,  short-term, U.S. dollar denominated money market instruments. The fund
invests  substantially all its assets in securities issued by the U.S. Treasury,
which are  supported  by the full  faith and credit of the  United  States.  The
interest  income on these  securities  is generally  exempt from state and local
income tax. The fund will not enter into repurchase agreements.

     Each  investor  should  consult  its own tax adviser to  determine  whether
distributions  from the fund derived from interest on its portfolio  investments
are exempt from state income taxation in the investor's own state.


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


              THE FUNDS' INVESTMENTS, RELATED RISKS AND LIMITATIONS

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

     YIELDS  AND  CREDIT  RATINGS  OF  MONEY  MARKET  INSTRUMENTS;   FIRST  TIER
SECURITIES. The yields on the money market instruments in which the funds invest
are  dependent  on  a  variety  of  factors,   including  general  money  market
conditions,  conditions  in  the  particular  market  for  the  obligation,  the
financial condition of the issuer, the size of the offering, the maturity of the
obligation  and the  ratings of the issue.  The ratings  assigned by  nationally
recognized  statistical rating organizations ("rating agencies") represent their
opinions as to the quality of the obligations  they undertake to rate.  Ratings,
however,  are general and are not absolute  standards of quality.  Consequently,
obligations with the same rating,  maturity and interest rate may have different
market prices.


     Subsequent to its purchase by a fund, an issue may cease to be rated or its
rating may be reduced.  If a security in a fund's portfolio ceases to be a First
Tier Security or Mitchell  Hutchins becomes aware that a security has received a
rating below the second highest rating by any rating agency,  Mitchell  Hutchins
and, in certain cases,  the fund's board,  will consider whether the fund should
continue to hold the  obligation.  A First Tier  Security is either (1) rated in
the highest  short-term  rating  category by at least two rating  agencies,  (2)
rated in the highest  short-term  rating  category by a single  rating agency if
only that rating  agency has assigned the  obligation a short-term  rating,  (3)
issued by an issuer that has received such a short-term rating with respect to a
security that is comparable in priority and security, (4) subject to a guarantee
rated in the highest  short-term  rating  category or issued by a guarantor that
has received the highest  short-term  rating for a comparable debt obligation or
(5) unrated,  but determined by Mitchell Hutchins to be of comparable quality. A
First Tier  Security  rated in the  highest  short-term  category at the time of
purchase that  subsequently  receives a rating below the highest rating category
from a  different  rating  agency may  continue  to be  considered  a First Tier
Security.

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


     U.S.  government  securities also include  separately  traded principal and
interest  components  of securities  issued or guaranteed by the U.S.  Treasury,
which are traded independently under the Separate Trading of Registered Interest
and Principal of Securities ("STRIPS") program.  Under the STRIPS programs,  the
principal  and interest  components  are  individually  numbered and  separately
issued by the U.S. Treasury.

                                       3
<PAGE>



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

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

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

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

     VARIABLE  AMOUNT  MASTER  DEMAND  NOTES.  Money  Market  Fund may invest in
variable amount master demand notes, which are unsecured redeemable  obligations
that permit investment of varying amounts at fluctuating  interest rates under a
direct agreement  between the fund and an issuer.  The principal amount of these
notes may be  increased  from time to time by the parties  (subject to specified
maximums)  or  decreased  by the fund or the issuer.  These notes are payable on
demand (subject to any applicable  advance notice provisions) and may or may not
be rated.

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

     CREDIT  AND  LIQUIDITY  ENHANCEMENTS.  Money  Market  Fund  may  invest  in
securities  that have credit or liquidity  enhancements  or may  purchase  these
types  of  enhancements  in  the  secondary  market.  Such  enhancements  may be
structured  as demand  features  that permit the fund to sell the  instrument at
designated  times and prices.  These credit and  liquidity  enhancements  may be
backed by letters of credit or other instruments


                                       4

provided by banks or other financial  institutions whose credit standing affects
the credit quality of the underlying  obligation.  Changes in the credit quality
of these  financial  institutions  could cause losses to the fund and affect its
share price.  The credit and liquidity  enhancements  may have  conditions  that
limit the ability of the fund to use them when the fund wished to do so.


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

     Restricted  securities are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended  ("Securities  Act") and may be sold only in privately  negotiated or
other  exempted  transactions  or  after  a  registration  statement  under  the
Securities Act has become effective.  Where registration is required, a fund may
be obligated to pay all or part of the registration  expenses and a considerable
period may elapse between the time of the decision to sell and the time the fund
may be permitted to sell a security under an effective  registration  statement.
If, during such a period,  adverse  market  conditions  were to develop,  a fund
might obtain a less favorable price than prevailed when it decided to sell.

     Not all restricted  securities are illiquid.  A large institutional  market
has developed for many U.S. and foreign securities that are not registered under
the  Securities  Act.  Institutional  investors  generally will not seek to sell
these instruments to the general public, but instead will often depend either on
an efficient  institutional market in which such unregistered  securities can be
readily  resold  or on an  issuer's  ability  to honor a demand  for  repayment.
Therefore,  the fact that there are contractual or legal  restrictions on resale
to  the  general  public  or  certain  institutions  is not  dispositive  of the
liquidity of such investments.

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

     The board has delegated the function of making day-to-day determinations of
liquidity to Mitchell  Hutchins  pursuant to  guidelines  approved by the board.
Mitchell  Hutchins takes into account a number of factors in reaching  liquidity
decisions,  which may include (1) the frequency of trades for the security,  (2)
the number of dealers that make quotes for the  security,  (3) the nature of the
security  and how  trading  is  effected  (e.g.,  the  time  needed  to sell the
security,  how bids are  solicited  and the  mechanics of transfer)  and (4) the
existence  of  demand  features  or  similar  liquidity  enhancements.  Mitchell
Hutchins  monitors  the  liquidity  of  restricted  securities  in  each  fund's
portfolio and reports periodically on such decisions to the board.

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

     REPURCHASE  AGREEMENTS.  Repurchase  agreements are transactions in which a
fund purchases  securities or other obligations from a bank or securities dealer
(or its affiliate) and simultaneously commits to resell them to the counterparty
at an agreed-upon date or upon demand and at a price reflecting a market rate of
interest unrelated to the coupon rate or maturity of the purchased  obligations.
Securities  or other  obligations  subject  to  repurchase  agreements  may have
maturities in excess of 13 months.  The fund maintains custody of the underlying
obligations prior to their  repurchase,  either through its regular custodian or
through a special "tri-party" custodian or sub-custodian that maintains separate
accounts for both the fund and its  counterparty.  Thus,  the  obligation of the
counterparty  to pay the  repurchase  price on the date agreed to or upon demand
is, in effect, secured by such obligations.

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

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

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

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

     A security purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis is recorded
as an asset on the  commitment  date and is subject to changes in market  value,
generally based upon changes in the level of interest rates.  Thus,  fluctuation
in the value of the security from the time of the commitment  date will affect a
fund's  net  asset  value.  When a fund  commits  to  purchase  securities  on a
when-issued or delayed delivery basis, its custodian  segregates assets to cover
the amount of the  commitment.  See "The Funds'  Investments,  Related Risks and
Limitations -- Segregated  Accounts." A fund's  when-issued and delayed delivery
purchase  commitments  could  cause  its net  asset  value  per share to be more
volatile.

     INVESTMENTS  IN  OTHER  INVESTMENT  COMPANIES.  Each  fund  may  invest  in
securities  of other  money  market  funds,  subject  to  limitations  under the
Investment Company Act. Among other things, these limitations currently restrict
a fund's aggregate investments in other investment companies to no more than 10%
of its total assets. A fund's investments in certain private investment vehicles
are not subject to this restriction.  The shares of other


                                       6
<PAGE>


money  market  funds are subject to the  management  fees and other  expenses of
those funds.  At the same time, a fund would  continue to pay its own management
fees and expenses with respect to all its investments, including shares of other
money market  funds.  A fund may invest in the  securities of other money market
funds when  Mitchell  Hutchins  believes that (1) the amounts to be invested are
too small or are  available  too late in the day to be  effectively  invested in
other money market instruments, (2) shares of other money market funds otherwise
would  provide a better  return than  direct  investment  in other money  market
instruments or (3) such investments would enhance the fund's liquidity.


     LENDING  OF  PORTFOLIO  SECURITIES.  Each  fund is  authorized  to lend its
portfolio securities to broker-dealers or institutional  investors that Mitchell
Hutchins deems qualified.  Lending  securities enables a fund to earn additional
income, but could result in a loss or delay in recovering these securities.  The
borrower of a fund's portfolio  securities must maintain  acceptable  collateral
with the fund's  custodian in an amount,  marked to market daily, at least equal
to the  market  value  of the  securities  loaned,  plus  accrued  interest  and
dividends.  Acceptable collateral is limited to cash, U.S. government securities
and irrevocable  letters of credit that meet certain  guidelines  established by
Mitchell  Hutchins.  Each fund may reinvest any cash  collateral in money market
investments or other short-term liquid  investments,  including other investment
companies.  A fund also may  reinvest  cash  collateral  in  private  investment
vehicles  similar to money  market  funds,  including  one  managed by  Mitchell
Hutchins.   In   determining   whether  to  lend   securities  to  a  particular
broker-dealer or institutional  investor,  Mitchell Hutchins will consider,  and
during  the  period  of  the  loan  will   monitor,   all  relevant   facts  and
circumstances,  including the  creditworthiness of the borrower.  Each fund will
retain  authority to terminate  any of its loans at any time.  Each fund may pay
reasonable  fees in  connection  with a loan and may pay the borrower or placing
broker a negotiated  portion of the interest earned on the  reinvestment of cash
held as collateral.  Each fund will receive amounts  equivalent to any interest,
dividends or other distributions on the securities loaned. Each fund will regain
record ownership of loaned  securities to exercise  beneficial  rights,  such as
voting and subscription  rights,  when regaining such rights is considered to be
in the fund's interest.

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

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


INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS OF THE FUNDS


     FUNDAMENTAL  LIMITATIONS.  The following  investment  limitations cannot be
changed with respect to a fund without the affirmative vote of the lesser of (a)
more  than 50% of the  outstanding  shares of the fund or (b) 67% or more of the
shares present at a  shareholders'  meeting if more than 50% of the  outstanding
shares are  represented  at the meeting in person or by proxy.  If a  percentage
restriction is adhered to at the time of an investment or  transaction,  a later
increase or decrease in percentage  resulting from changing  values of portfolio
securities  or amount of total assets will not be  considered a violation of any
of the  following  limitations.  With  regard to the  borrowings  limitation  in
fundamental   limitation   (3),  the  fund  will  comply  with  the   applicable
restrictions of Section 18 of the Investment Company Act.


     Each fund will not:

     (1)  purchase securities of any one issuer if, as a result, more than 5% of
the fund's total assets  would be invested in  securities  of that issuer or the
fund would own or hold more than 10% of the  outstanding  voting  securities  of
that  issuer,  except that up to 25% of the fund's  total assets may be invested
without  regard to this  limitation,  and except that this  limitation  does not
apply to securities  issued or guaranteed by the U.S.  government,  its agencies
and instrumentalities or to securities issued by other investment companies.

                                       7
<PAGE>


     The  following  interpretation  applies  to,  but is not a  part  of,  this
fundamental  restriction:  Mortgage-  and  asset-backed  securities  will not be
considered  to have been issued by the same  issuer by reason of the  securities
having the same sponsor,  and mortgage- and asset-backed  securities issued by a
finance or other  special  purpose  subsidiary  that are not  guaranteed  by the
parent  company will be  considered  to be issued by a separate  issuer from the
parent company.

     (2)  purchase any security if, as a result of that purchase, 25% or more of
the fund's total assets would be invested in securities of issuers  having their
principal business activities in the same industry,  except that this limitation
does not apply to securities  issued or guaranteed by the U.S.  government,  its
agencies or  instrumentalities  or to municipal securities or to certificates of
deposit and bankers' acceptances of domestic branches of U.S. banks.

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


     (3)  issue senior securities or borrow money, except as permitted under the
Investment  Company  Act and then not in excess of 33 1/3% of the  fund's  total
assets  (including the amount of the senior securities issued but reduced by any
liabilities not constituting  senior  securities) at the time of the issuance or
borrowing,  except that the fund may borrow up to an  additional 5% of its total
assets (not including the amount borrowed) for temporary or emergency purposes.


     (4)  make loans,  except  through loans of portfolio  securities or through
repurchase  agreements,  provided  that for  purposes of this  restriction,  the
acquisition  of bonds,  debentures,  other debt  securities or  instruments,  or
participations   or  other  interests  therein  and  investments  in  government
obligations,  commercial paper, certificates of deposit, bankers' acceptances or
similar instruments will not be considered the making of a loan.

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

     (5)  engage in the business of  underwriting  securities of other  issuers,
except to the extent that the fund might be considered an underwriter  under the
federal  securities  laws  in  connection  with  its  disposition  of  portfolio
securities.

     (6)  purchase or sell real estate, except that investments in securities of
issuers  that  invest  in  real  estate  and   investments  in   mortgage-backed
securities,  mortgage participations or other instruments supported by interests
in real estate are not subject to this limitation,  and except that the fund may
exercise  rights under  agreements  relating to such  securities,  including the
right to enforce  security  interests and to hold real estate acquired by reason
of such  enforcement  until  that real  estate can be  liquidated  in an orderly
manner.

     (7)  purchase or sell physical  commodities  unless acquired as a result of
owning securities or other instruments, but the fund may purchase, sell or enter
into financial options and futures,  forward and spot currency  contracts,  swap
transactions and other financial contracts or derivative instruments.


     NON-FUNDAMENTAL  LIMITATIONS.  The following  investment  restrictions  are
non-fundamental  and may be changed by the vote of the board without shareholder
approval. If a percentage restriction is adhered to at the time of an investment
or  transaction,  a later  increase  or decrease in  percentage  resulting  from
changing  values of portfolio  securities  or amount of total assets will not be
considered a violation of any of the following limitations.


     Each fund will not:

     (1)  purchase securities on margin,  except for short-term credit necessary
for clearance of portfolio transactions and except that the fund may make margin
deposits in connection  with its use of financial  options and futures,  forward
and spot currency contracts,  swap transactions and other financial contracts or
derivative instruments.

                                       8
<PAGE>


     (2)  engage in short  sales of  securities  or  maintain a short  position,
except that the fund may (a) sell short "against the box" and (b) maintain short
positions in connection with its use of financial  options and futures,  forward
and spot currency contracts,  swap transactions and other financial contracts or
derivative instruments.

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

     (4)  purchase  securities  of other  investment  companies,  except  to the
extent  permitted by the Investment  Company Act and except that this limitation
does not apply to securities  received or acquired as dividends,  through offers
of exchange, or as a result of reorganization, consolidation, or merger.

     The Trust  pays  trustees  who are not  "interested  persons"  of the Trust
$1,000 annually for each series and up to $150 per series for each board meeting

amounts  due for board or  committee  meetings.  Each  chairman of the audit and
contract  review  committees of  individual  funds within the  PaineWebber  fund

     Under the terms of the  Advisory  Contract,  each fund  bears all  expenses
incurred in its  operation  that are not  specifically  assumed by  PaineWebber.
General  expenses  of the Trust  not  readily  identifiable  as  belonging  to a
specific fund or to the Trust's  other series are  allocated  among series by or
under the  direction  of the board of trustees in such manner as the board deems
fair and  equitable.  Expenses borne by the Trust include the following (or each

and any  losses  incurred  in  connection  therewith;  (2) fees  payable  to and

shareholders;  (14) any extraordinary expenses (including fees and disbursements
of counsel, costs of actions, suits or proceedings to which the Trust is a party

shall not be liable for any error of  judgment or mistake of law or for any loss
suffered  by the funds in  connection  with the  performance  of the  Contracts,
except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance,  bad faith or gross negligence
on the part of PaineWebber or Mitchell Hutchins in the performance of its duties
or from reckless disregard of its duties and obligations thereunder.

     The Contracts are  terminable by vote of the funds' board or by the holders
of a majority  of the  outstanding  voting  securities  of the funds at any time
without penalty, on 60 days' written notice to PaineWebber or Mitchell Hutchins,
as the case may be. The Advisory Contract is also terminable  without penalty by
PaineWebber on 60 days' written notice to the Trust,  and the Mitchell  Hutchins
Contract is terminable without penalty by PaineWebber or Mitchell Hutchins on 60

1999 and April 30, 1998, the funds paid (or accrued) no fees to PaineWebber  for

     PERSONAL  TRADING  POLICIES.  Mitchell  Hutchins  personnel  may  invest in
securities  for their own accounts  pursuant to a code of ethics that  describes
the fiduciary duty owed to shareholders of PaineWebber  funds and other Mitchell
Hutchins advisory  accounts by all Mitchell  Hutchins'  directors,  officers and
employees,  establishes  procedures for personal investing and restricts certain
transactions.  For example,  employee  accounts  generally must be maintained at
PaineWebber,  personal  trades  in most  securities  require  pre-clearance  and
short-term  trading and participation in initial public offerings  generally are
prohibited.  In addition,  the code of ethics puts restrictions on the timing of
personal investing in relation to trades by PaineWebber Funds and other Mitchell
Hutchins advisory clients.


     DISTRIBUTION  ARRANGEMENTS.  PaineWebber  acts as the  distributor  of each
fund's  shares  under a  distribution  contract  with the  Trust  ("Distribution
Contract"),  which requires PaineWebber to use its best efforts, consistent with
its other business, to sell shares of the funds. Shares of the funds are offered
continuously.  PaineWebber is located at 1285 Avenue of the Americas,  New York,
New York 10019.


     FINANCIAL  INTERMEDIARIES.  Financial  intermediaries,  such as  banks  and
savings  associations,  may  purchase  Financial  Intermediary  shares  for  the
accounts of their customers.  The Trust has adopted a shareholder  services plan
("Plan") with respect to Financial  Intermediary shares.  PaineWebber implements
the Plan on behalf of the Trust by entering into a service  agreement  with each
financial intermediary that purchases Financial Intermediary shares requiring it
to provide  support  services to its customers who are the beneficial  owners of
Financial Intermediary shares.

     Under the Plan, each fund pays PaineWebber a monthly fee at the annual rate
of 0.25% of the  average  daily net asset  value of the  Financial  Intermediary
shares held by financial intermediaries on behalf of their customers. Under each
service   agreement,   PaineWebber  pays  an  identical  fee  to  the  financial
intermediary  for providing the support  services to its customers  specified in
the  service  agreement.   These  services  may  include:  (i)  aggregating  and
processing  purchase and  redemption  requests  from  customers  and placing net
purchase and redemption orders with PaineWebber; (ii) providing customers with a
service  that  invests the assets of their  accounts in  Financial  Intermediary
shares;  (iii)  processing  dividend  payments  from  the  Trust  on  behalf  of
customers;  (iv) providing  information  periodically to customers showing their
positions in Financial  Intermediary  shares; (v) arranging for bank wires; (vi)
responding  to customer  inquiries  relating to the  services  performed  by the
financial intermediary; (vii) providing sub-accounting with respect to Financial
Intermediary shares beneficially owned by customers or the information necessary
for sub-accounting;  (viii) forwarding shareholder communications from the Trust
(such  as  proxies,  shareholder  reports  and  dividend,  distribution  and tax
notices) to customers,  if required by law; and (ix) such other similar services
as a fund may  reasonably  request from time to time to the extent the financial
intermediary is permitted to do so under federal and state  statutes,  rules and
regulations.  During  the  fiscal  year  ended  April 30,  2000,  the Trust made
payments  through  PaineWebber  to  financial  intermediaries  with  respect  to

                                       17
<PAGE>


Financial Intermediary shares in the amount of $66,100 for Money Market Fund, $0
for Government Securities Fund and $0 for Treasury Securities Fund.


     Under the terms of the service  agreements,  financial  intermediaries  are
required to provide to their  customers a schedule of any  additional  fees that
they may charge  customers in  connection  with their  investments  in Financial
Intermediary  shares.  Financial  Intermediary shares are available for purchase
only by financial  intermediaries that have entered into service agreements with
PaineWebber  in  connection  with  their  investment.  Financial  intermediaries
providing  services to  beneficial  owners of Financial  Intermediary  shares in
certain  states may be required to be  registered  as dealers  under the laws of
those states.

     The Plan requires that PaineWebber provide to the board at least annually a
written report of the amounts expended by PaineWebber  under service  agreements
with financial  intermediaries and the purposes for which such expenditures were
made. Each service  agreement  requires the financial  intermediary to cooperate
with  PaineWebber in providing  information to the board with respect to amounts
expended  and services  provided  under the service  agreement.  The Plan may be
terminated at any time,  without  penalty,  by vote of the trustees of the Trust
who are not  "interested  persons"  of the Trust as  defined  in the  Investment
Company  Act and who  have no  direct  or  indirect  financial  interest  in the
operation of the Plan ("Disinterested Trustees"). Any amendment to the Plan must
be  approved  by the board and any  material  amendment  must be approved by the
Disinterested Trustees.

     Should future  legislative,  judicial or administrative  action prohibit or
restrict  the  activities  of  banks  serving  as  financial  intermediaries  in
connection with the provision of support services to their customers,  the Trust
and  PaineWebber  might be required to alter or discontinue  their  arrangements
with financial intermediaries and change their method of operations with respect
to Financial  Intermediary  shares.  It is not  anticipated,  however,  that any
change in the Trust's method of operations would affect its net asset values per
share or result in a financial loss to any shareholder.

     Conflict of interest  restrictions  may apply to a financial  institution's
receipt  of  compensation  from a  fund  through  PaineWebber  under  a  service
agreement   resulting   from   fiduciary   funds  being  invested  in  Financial
Intermediary shares. Before investing fiduciary funds in Financial  Intermediary
shares, financial intermediaries,  including investment advisers and other money
managers  under the  jurisdiction  of the SEC, the  Department of Labor or state
securities  commissions  and banks  regulated by the Comptroller of the Currency
should consult their legal advisors.

                             PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

     The funds purchase  portfolio  securities from dealers and  underwriters as
well as from issuers.  Securities are usually traded on a net basis with dealers
acting as principal for their own accounts without a stated  commission.  Prices
paid to dealers in principal transactions generally include a "spread," which is
the difference between the prices at which the dealer is willing to purchase and
sell a specific  security at the time.  When  securities are purchased  directly
from an issuer,  no  commissions  or discounts  are paid.  When  securities  are
purchased in underwritten offerings, they include a fixed amount of compensation
to the  underwriter.  During  the last  three  fiscal  years,  the funds paid no
brokerage commissions.

     For  purchases  or sales with  broker-dealer  firms that act as  principal,
Mitchell  Hutchins seeks best execution.  Although Mitchell Hutchins may receive
certain research or execution services in connection with these transactions, it
will not purchase  securities  at a higher price or sell  securities  at a lower
price than would  otherwise be paid if no weight was  attributed to the services
provided  by the  executing  dealer.  Mitchell  Hutchins  may  engage  in agency
transactions in over-the-counter securities in return for research and execution
services.  These  transactions are entered into only pursuant to procedures that
are designed to ensure that the transaction (including  commissions) is at least
as favorable as it would have been if effected directly with a market-maker that
did not provide research or execution services.

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

and, conversely,  research services furnished to Mitchell Hutchins by brokers or
dealers in  connection  with other funds or accounts that either of them advises
may be used in advising the funds.

     Investment  decisions  for the  funds  and for  other  investment  accounts
managed by Mitchell  Hutchins are made  independently  of each other in light of
differing considerations for the various accounts.  However, the same investment
decision  may  occasionally  be  made  for  the  funds  and  one or more of such
accounts. In such cases, simultaneous transactions are inevitable.  Purchases or
sales are then  averaged  as to price and  allocated  between the funds and such
other  account(s) as to amount  according to a formula  deemed  equitable to the
funds and such  account(s).  While in some  cases  this  practice  could  have a
detrimental  effect upon the price or value of the  security as far as the funds
are concerned,  or upon its ability to complete its entire order, in other cases
it is  believed  that  coordination  and the  ability to  participate  in volume
transactions will be beneficial to the funds.

                  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING REDEMPTIONS

     Each fund may suspend redemption privileges or postpone the date of payment
during any period (1) when the New York Stock  Exchange  is closed or trading on
the New York Stock  Exchange is restricted as determined by the SEC, (2) when an
emergency  exists,  as  defined  by  the  SEC,  that  makes  it  not  reasonably
practicable  for the fund to  dispose  of  securities  owned by it or  fairly to
determine  the value of its assets or (3) as the SEC may otherwise  permit.  The
redemption price may be more or less than the shareholder's  cost,  depending on
the  market  value of each  fund's  portfolio  at the time;  although  the funds
attempt to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share.

     If conditions exist that make cash payments undesirable, each fund reserves
the right to honor any request for  redemption by making  payment in whole or in
part in  securities  chosen by the fund and valued in the same way as they would
be valued for  purposes of computing  the fund's net asset value.  If payment is
made in securities,  the shareholder may incur brokerage  expenses in converting
these  securities  into cash.  The Trust is obligated to redeem shares solely in
cash up to the lesser of  $250,000 or 1% of the net asset value of a fund during
any 90-day period for a shareholder.

                               VALUATION OF SHARES


     Money Market Fund's and Government  Securities  Fund's net asset values per
share are determined by State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State  Street") as
of 12:00 p.m.,  Eastern  time,  2:30 p.m.,  Eastern time and 4:30 p.m.,  Eastern
time, on each Business Day. Treasury Securities Fund's net asset value per share
is  determined  by State  Street as of 12:00 p.m.,  Eastern  time and 2:30 p.m.,
Eastern time, on each Business Day. As defined in the Prospectus, "Business Day"
means any day on which the Massachusetts  offices of State Street and the funds'
transfer agent, First Data Investor Services Group, Inc.  ("Transfer Agent") and
the New York City offices of PaineWebber and PaineWebber's bank are all open for
business.  One or more of these institutions will be closed on the observance of
the following holidays: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents'
Day,  Good Friday,  Memorial Day,  Independence  Day,  Labor Day,  Columbus Day,
Veterans' Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.


                                       19

     Each fund values its portfolio  securities in accordance with the amortized
cost method of valuation  under Rule 2a-7 ("Rule") under the Investment  Company
Act. To use  amortized  cost to value its portfolio  securities,  the funds must
adhere to certain conditions under the Rule relating to its investments, some of
which are discussed in this SAI.  Amortized cost is an  approximation  of market
value of an instrument,  whereby the difference between its acquisition cost and
value at maturity is amortized on a straight-line  basis over the remaining life
of the instrument.  The effect of changes in the market value of a security as a
result of  fluctuating  interest  rates is not taken into account,  and thus the
amortized  cost method of valuation may result in the value of a security  being
higher or lower than its actual market value.  If a large number of  redemptions
take place at a time when interest rates have increased, the funds might have to
sell  portfolio  securities  prior to maturity  and at a price that might not be
desirable.


     The board has  established  procedures  for the  purpose of  maintaining  a
constant  net asset  value of $1.00  per  share,  which  include a review of the
extent of any deviation of net asset value per share,  based on available market
quotations,  from the $1.00 amortized cost per share. If that deviation  exceeds
1/2 of 1% for each fund,  the board will  promptly  consider  whether any action
should be initiated to  eliminate  or reduce  material  dilution or other unfair
results to  shareholders.  Such  action may  include  redeeming  shares in kind,
selling  portfolio  securities  prior  to  maturity,   reducing  or  withholding
dividends  and  utilizing  a net asset  value per share as  determined  by using
available market quotations.  Each fund will maintain a dollar-weighted  average
portfolio  maturity  of 90 days or less  and will not  purchase  any  instrument
having,  or deemed to have,  a remaining  maturity  of more than 397 days,  will
limit portfolio  investments,  including  repurchase  agreements,  to those U.S.
dollar denominated  instruments that are of high quality under the Rule and that
Mitchell Hutchins, acting pursuant to the procedures, determines present minimal
credit  risks,  and  will  comply  with  certain   reporting  and  recordkeeping
procedures.  There is no assurance  that constant net asset value per share will
be maintained.  If amortized cost ceases to represent fair value per share,  the
board will take appropriate action.


     In determining the approximate market value of portfolio  investments,  the
funds may employ outside organizations, which may use a matrix or formula method
that takes into consideration market indices,  matrices,  yield curves and other
specific adjustments.  This may result in the securities being valued at a price
different  from the price  that  would  have been  determined  had the matrix or
formula method not been used. Other assets,  if any, are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by or under the direction of the board.

                             PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

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

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

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

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

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

     CALCULATION  OF YIELD.  Each fund  computes its yield and  effective  yield
quotations using  standardized  methods required by the SEC. A fund from time to
time  advertises  (1) its  current  yield  based on a recently  ended  seven-day
period, computed by determining the net change, exclusive of capital changes, in
the value of a hypothetical  pre-existing  account having a balance of one share
at the beginning of the period,  subtracting a  hypothetical  charge  reflecting
deductions from that shareholder  account,  dividing the difference by the value
of the  account at the  beginning  of the base  period to obtain the base period
return and then multiplying the base period

                                       21
<PAGE>


return by  (365/7),  with the  resulting  yield  figure  carried to at least the
nearest hundredth of one percent;  and (2) its effective yield based on the same
seven-day  period by compounding the base period return by adding 1, raising the
sum to a power equal to (365/7) and subtracting 1 from the result,  according to
the following formula:

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

     Yield  may  fluctuate  daily and does not  provide a basis for  determining
future yields. Because the yield of each fund fluctuates,  it cannot be compared
with yields on savings accounts or other investment alternatives that provide an
agreed to or guaranteed fixed yield for a stated period of time. However,  yield
information may be useful to an investor  considering  temporary  investments in
money market  instruments.  In  comparing  the yield of one money market fund to
another,  consideration  should  be given to each  fund's  investment  policies,
including the types of investments  made, the average  maturity of the portfolio
securities and whether there are any special account charges that may reduce the
yield.

     The following table shows the yield and effective yield for the outstanding
shares of each fund for the 7-day period ended April 30, 2000:

     OTHER  INFORMATION.  The funds'  performance data quoted in advertising and
other  promotional  materials  ("Performance   Advertisements")  represent  past
performance  and are not  intended to predict or indicate  future  results.  The
return  on  an  investment  in  each  fund  will   fluctuate.   In   Performance
Advertisements, the funds may compare their yields with data published by Lipper
Analytical   Services,   Inc.  for  money  funds   ("Lipper"),   CDA  Investment
Technologies,  Inc.  ("CDA"),  IBC Financial  Data, Inc.  ("IBC"),  Wiesenberger
Investment  Companies Service  ("Wiesenberger")  or Investment Company Data Inc.

including the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite  Stock Price Index,  the Dow Jones
Industrial  Average,  the Morgan Stanley Capital  International World Index, the
Lehman Brothers  Treasury Bond Index,  the Lehman Brothers  Government/Corporate
Bond Index,  the Salomon Smith Barney World Government Bond Index and changes in
the Consumer  Price Index as published by the U.S.  Department of Commerce.  The
funds also may refer in such materials to mutual fund  performance  rankings and
other data,  such as  comparative  asset,  expense and fee levels,  published by
Lipper, CDA, IBC, Wiesenberger or ICD. Performance Advertisements also may refer
to  discussions  of the  funds and  comparative  mutual  fund  data and  ratings
reported in independent  periodicals,  including THE WALL STREET JOURNAL,  MONEY
MAGAZINE,  FORBES,  BUSINESS WEEK, FINANCIAL WORLD,  BARRON'S,  FORTUNE, THE NEW
YORK TIMES, THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE,  THE WASHINGTON POST and THE KIPLINGER LETTERS.
Comparisons in Performance Advertisements may be in graphic form.


     The funds may also compare their  performance  with the performance of bank
certificates  of deposit  ("CDs") as measured by the CDA  Certificate of Deposit
Index and the Bank Rate Monitor  National Index and the average of yields of CDs
of major banks published by Banxquotes(R)  Money Markets.  In comparing a fund's
performance to CD performance,  investors  should keep in mind that bank CDs are
insured in whole or in part by an agency of the U.S.  government and offer fixed
principal and fixed or variable  rates of interest,  and that bank CD yields may
vary  depending on the  financial  institution  offering  the CD and  prevailing
interest  rates.  Bank  accounts are insured in whole or in part by an agency of
the U.S.  government  and may offer a fixed rate of return.

Fund shares are not insured or  guaranteed  by the U.S.  government  and returns
thereon  will  fluctuate.  While the funds  seek to  maintain a stable net asset
value of $1.00 per share, there can be no assurance that they will be able to do
so.

     The funds may  include  discussions  or  illustrations  of the  effects  of
compounding  in  Performance  Advertisements.  "Compounding"  refers to the fact
that,  if dividends on the funds'  investments  are  reinvested by being paid in
additional fund shares, any future income of the funds would increase the value,
not only of the original  funds'  investments,  but also of the additional  fund
shares  received  through  reinvestment.  As a result,  the value of the  funds'
investments would increase more quickly than if dividends had been paid in cash.
The funds may also make available to shareholders a daily accrual factor or "mil
rate" representing  dividends accrued to shareholder  accounts on a given day or
days. Certain shareholders may find that this information facilitates accounting
or recordkeeping.

                                      TAXES

     BACKUP WITHHOLDING. The funds are required to withhold 31% of all dividends
and redemption  proceeds payable to individuals and certain other  non-corporate
shareholders who do not provide the funds or PaineWebber with a correct taxpayer
identification number.  Withholding at that rate also is required from dividends
payable to those shareholders who otherwise are subject to backup withholding.

     QUALIFICATION AS A REGULATED INVESTMENT COMPANY. To continue to qualify for
treatment as a regulated  investment  company ("RIC") under the Internal Revenue
Code,  the fund must  distribute  to its  shareholders  for each taxable year at
least 90% of its investment company taxable income (consisting  generally of net
investment  income  and net  short-term  capital  gains,  if any) and must  meet
several additional requirements. Among these requirements are the following: (1)
the fund must  derive at least 90% of its gross  income each  taxable  year from
dividends,  interest,  payments with respect to securities  loans and gains from
the sale or other disposition of securities and certain other income; (2) at the
close of each quarter of the fund's  taxable  year, at least 50% of the value of
its total assets must be  represented  by cash and cash items,  U.S.  government
securities,  securities of other RICs and other securities that are limited,  in
respect of any one issuer,  to an amount that does not exceed 5% of the value of
the  fund's  total  assets;  and (3) at the close of each  quarter of the fund's
taxable year, not more than 25% of the value of its total assets may be invested
in securities (other than U.S. government  securities or the securities of other
RICs) of any one issuer.  If the fund failed to qualify for  treatment  as a RIC
for any taxable  year,  (a) it would be taxed as an  ordinary  Trust on the full
amount of its  taxable  income  for that year  without  being able to deduct the
distributions it makes to its shareholders and (b) the shareholders  would treat
all those distributions as dividends (that is, ordinary income) to the extent of
the fund's  earnings  and profits.  In  addition,  the fund could be required to
recognize  unrealized  gains,  pay  substantial  taxes  and  interest,  and make
substantial distributions before requalifying for RIC treatment.

                                OTHER INFORMATION

     MASSACHUSETTS  BUSINESS TRUST.  The Trust is an entity of the type commonly
known as a "Massachusetts business trust." Under Massachusetts law, shareholders
could,  under  certain   circumstances,   be  held  personally  liable  for  the
obligations  of  the  Trust.   However,   the  Declaration  of  Trust  disclaims
shareholder  liability  for acts or  obligations  of the Trust and requires that
notice of such  disclaimer be given in each note,  bond,  contract,  instrument,
certificate or undertaking  made or issued by the trustees or by any officers or
officer by or on behalf of the Trust,  a fund,  the  trustees  or any of them in
connection with the Trust. The Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification
from a fund's  property  for all losses and  expenses  of any  shareholder  held
personally  liable  for  the  obligations  of the  fund.  Thus,  the  risk  of a
shareholder's  incurring  financial loss on account of shareholder  liability is
limited  to  circumstances  in which a fund  itself  would be unable to meet its
obligations,  a  possibility  which  PaineWebber  believes  is  remote  and  not
material.  Upon  payment  of  any  liability  incurred  by  a  shareholder,  the
shareholder  paying such  liability will be entitled to  reimbursement  from the
general  assets of the fund.  The trustees  intend to conduct the  operations of
each fund in such a way as to avoid, as far as possible,  ultimate  liability of
the shareholders for liabilities of the fund.

     CLASS OF SHARES.  A share of each class of a fund represents an interest in
the  fund's  investment  portfolio  and  has  similar  rights,   privileges  and
preferences.  Each share of a fund has equal  voting,  dividend and  liquidation
rights,  except that beneficial owners of Financial  Intermediary shares receive
certain  services  directly from financial  intermediaries  and bear the related
service costs.

     VOTING RIGHTS.  Shareholders of each fund are entitled to one vote for each
full share held and fractional votes for fractional  shares held.  Voting rights
are not  cumulative  and,  as a result,  the holders of more than 50% of all the
shares of the Trust may elect all its board  members.  The shares of a fund will
be voted together,  except that only the  shareholders of a particular class may
vote on matters  affecting  only that  class.  The shares of each  series of the
Trust  will  be  voted  separately,  except  when an  aggregate  vote of all the
securities is required by law. Financial intermediaries holding shares for their
own accounts must  undertake to vote the shares in the same  proportions  as the
vote of shares held for their customers.

     The Trust does not hold annual meetings. There normally will be no meetings
of  shareholders  to elect trustees unless fewer than a majority of the trustees
holding office have been elected by shareholders. Shareholders of record holding
no less than two  thirds  of the  outstanding  shares of the Trust may  remove a
board  member by vote cast in  person or by proxy at a meeting  called  for that
purpose.  A meeting  will be called to vote on the removal of a board  member at
the  written  request of  holders  of record of at least 10% of the  outstanding
shares of the Trust.


     CUSTODIAN;  TRANSFER  AND  DIVIDEND  AGENT.  State  Street  Bank and  Trust
Company,  located at One Heritage Drive, North Quincy,  Massachusetts  02171, is
custodian of the funds' assets.  PFPC, Inc., whose principal business address is
4400  Computer  Drive,  Westborough,  Massachusetts  01581-5159,  is the  funds'
transfer and dividend disbursing agent.


     COUNSEL.  The law firm of  Kirkpatrick & Lockhart  LLP, 1800  Massachusetts
Avenue,  N.W.,  Washington,  D.C.  20036-1800,  serves as  counsel to the funds.
Kirkpatrick  & Lockhart  LLP also acts as counsel to  PaineWebber  and  Mitchell
Hutchins in connection with other matters.

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

Item 24.  PERSONS CONTROLLED BY OR UNDER COMMON CONTROL WITH REGISTRANT

          None.

Item 25.  INDEMNIFICATION

     Section 4.2 of Article IV of the Registrant's Declaration of Trust provides
that no Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Trust shall be liable to the
Trust, its shareholders, or to any shareholder, Trustee, officer, employee, or
agent thereof for any action or failure to act (including without limitation the
failure to compel in any way any former or acting Trustee to redress any breach
of trust) except for his or her own bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross
negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his
office.

     Section 4.3(a) of Article IV of the Registrant's Declaration of Trust
provides that the Registrant, or the appropriate series of the Registrant, will
indemnify its Trustees and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law
against all liability and against all expenses reasonably incurred or paid by
such Trustees and officers in connection with any claim, action, suit or
proceeding in which such Trustee or officer becomes involved as a party or
otherwise by virtue of his or her being or having been a Trustee or officer and
against amounts paid or incurred by him or her in the settlement thereof.
Additionally, Section 4.3(b) of Article IV provides that no such person shall be
indemnified (i) where such person is liable to the Trust, a series thereof or
the shareholders by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence
or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his or her
office, (ii) where such person has been finally adjudicated not to have acted in
good faith in the reasonable belief that his or her action was in the best
interest of the Trust, or a series thereof, or (iii) in the event of a
settlement or other disposition not involving a final adjudication as provided
in (ii) above resulting in a payment by a Trustee or officer, unless there has
been a determination by the court of other body approving the settlement or
other disposition or based upon a review of readily available facts by vote of a
majority of the non-interested Trustees or written opinion of independent legal
counsel, that such Trustee or officer did not engage in willful misfeasance, bad
faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the
conduct of his or her office. Section 4.3(b) of Article IV further provides that
the rights of indemnification may be insured against by policies maintained by
the Trust. Section 4.4 of Article IV provides that no Trustee shall be obligated
to give any bond or other security for the performance of any of his or her
duties hereunder.

     Section 4.6 of Article IV provides that each Trustee, officer or employee
of the Trust or a series thereof shall, in the performance of his or her duties,
be fully and completely justified and protected with regard to any act or any
failure to act resulting from reliance in good faith upon the books of account
or other records of the Trust or a series thereof, upon an opinion of counsel,
or upon reports made to the Trust or a series thereof by any of its officers or
employees or by the Investment Adviser, the Administrator, the Distributor,
Transfer Agent, selected dealers, accountants, appraisers or other experts or
consultants selected with reasonable care by the Trustees, officers or employees
of the Trust, regardless of whether such counsel or expert may also be a
Trustee.


     Section 9 of the Investment Advisory and Administration Contract ("Advisory
Contract") with PaineWebber Incorporated ("PaineWebber") provides that
PaineWebber shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or
for any loss suffered by any series of the Registrant in connection with the
matters to which the Advisory Contract relates, except for a loss resulting from
the 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 Advisory Contract. Section 13 of the Advisory Contract provides
that the Trustees shall not be liable for any obligations of the Trust or any
series under the Advisory Contract and that PaineWebber shall look only to the
assets and property of the Registrant in settlement of such right or claim and
not to the assets and property of the Trustees.


     Section 7 of the Sub-Investment Advisory and Sub-Administration Agreement
between PaineWebber and Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ("Mitchell
Hutchins") provides that PaineWebber shall be indemnified

                                      C-2
<PAGE>


and held harmless by the Registrant against all liabilities, except those
arising out of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or reckless disregard of its
obligations and duties under the Agreement.

     Section 9 of the Distribution Contract provides that the Trust will
indemnify PaineWebber and its officers, directors and controlling persons
against all liabilities arising from any alleged untrue statement of material
fact in the Registration Statement or from any 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 Trust 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 each Distribution Contract also provides that PaineWebber
agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Trust, its officers and Trustees 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 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
Distribution Contract.

     Section 10 of the Distribution Contract contains provisions similar to
Section 13 of the Advisory Contract.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, may be provided to Trustees, officers and controlling
persons of the Trust, pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the
Trust 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 Trust of expenses
incurred or paid by a Trustee, officer or controlling person of the Trust in
connection with the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding or
payment pursuant to any insurance policy) is asserted against the Trust by such
Trustee, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Trust 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.
