     common stock of PaineWebber Premier Insured Municipal Income Fund Inc.
     ("Fund") in reliance on Rule 415 of Regulation C under the Securities Act
     of 1933.  The shares registered hereby (the "N-14 Shares") have been
     previously registered on Form N-14 (File No. 33-82244) for distribution to
     shareholders of the PaineWebber Premier Intermediate Tax-Free Income Fund
     Inc. in connection with that investment company's tax-free reorganization
     into the registrant.  The purpose of this registration statement is to
     allow the N-14 Shares to be offered from time to time in over-the-counter
     secondary market transactions by PaineWebber Incorporated, in its capacity
     as a dealer and secondary market-maker, at negotiated prices related to
     prevailing prices on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. at the time of
     sale.

              All of the Fund's other outstanding shares currently are
     registered in connection with such secondary market transactions pursuant
     to Rule 415 on a previously filed Form N-2 (File No. 33-58532), as most
     recently amended by Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 thereto, which
     amendment became effective on August 1, 1995 (the "Current Registration
     Statement").  A supplement ("Supplement") to the prospectus contained in 
     the Current Registration Statement was filed pursuant to Rule 497(e) on 
     August 10, 1995.

              The contents of parts A, B and C of the Current Registration
     Statement and the contents of the Supplement are hereby incorporated
     herein by reference.

     Ladies and Gentlemen:

              You  have  requested  our  opinion  regarding certain  matters  in
     connection with the  Registration Statement on Form N-2 (File No. 811-7528)
     (the  "Registration   Statement")  filed  by  PaineWebber  Premier  Insured
     Municipal  Income Fund  Inc.  ("Fund")  in  order to  facilitate  secondary
     market trading  in 4,496,667 shares  of the Fund's  $.001 par value  common
     stock (the "Shares") that were previously issued and  registered on Form N-
     14.  In connection with this opinion, we have examined the Fund's  Articles
     of   Incorporation  and   other  corporate   documents   relating  to   the
     authorization and issuance  of the Shares.  Based upon this examination, we
     are of the opinion that:

              1.      All legal  requirements for the  organization of the  Fund
                      under the laws of the  State of Maryland have  been satis-
                      fied, and  the Fund is a  validly existing  corporation in
                      good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland.

              2.      The Shares have  been duly  authorized by  the Fund,  have
                      been  legally and validly issued,  and are  fully paid and
                      non-assessable.

              We  hereby consent  to the  filing of  this opinion  in connection
     with  the Registration  Statement, which  you are  about to  file with  the
     Securities  and Exchange Commission.   We also consent  to the reference to
     our firm under  the subheading "Legal  Matters" in the prospectus  which is
     incorporated  by  reference  in  the  Registration   Statement  from  Post-
     Effective  Amendment No. 2 to the registration  statement on Form N-2 (File
     Nos.  33-58532 and  811-7528)  which was  declared  effective on  August 1,
     1995.

                                       Very truly yours,
