PAINEWEBBER ASIA PACIFIC GROWTH FUND
(A SERIES OF PAINEWEBBER MANAGED INVESTMENTS TRUST)
51 WEST 52ND STREET
NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10019-6114

December 22, 2000

Dear Shareholder:

The enclosed proxy statement and prospectus asks for your vote on a
proposal that will determine the future of PaineWebber Asia Pacific Growth
Fund.

We are seeking shareholder approval to merge Asia Pacific Growth Fund into
PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments ("PACE Fund"). If the
merger is approved, you will receive shares of the corresponding class of
shares of the PACE Fund in exchange for your Asia Pacific Growth Fund shares,
and Asia Pacific Growth Fund will cease operations. The expenses of each class
of shares of the PACE Fund following the merger would be lower than the
current expenses of the corresponding class of Asia Pacific Growth Fund.

Mitchell Hutchins is the investment manager for both Funds and has retained
Schroder Investment Management North America Inc., an unaffiliated firm, to
manage each Fund's assets. Although the two Funds have similar investment
objectives in that each Fund seeks capital appreciation, they have different
investment policies. Asia Pacific Growth Fund invests primarily in stocks of
companies in the Asia Pacific Region (except Japan), including stocks of
companies in both developed and emerging market countries within that region.
PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund invests primarily in stocks of
companies in emerging market countries and is not limited to any one
geographic region.

The enclosed document describes the proposed merger more fully and compares
the investment strategies and policies, risk characteristics, operating
expenses and performance histories of the two Funds in more detail. Please
read this document carefully. We have included a "Question and Answer" section
that we believe will be helpful to most investors.

YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT. After reviewing the enclosed document, please
complete, date and sign your proxy card and return it TODAY in the enclosed
postage-paid return envelope. Or you may vote your shares by telephone or the
internet. Voting your shares early will avoid costly follow-up mail and
telephone solicitation.

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY URGES THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE PROPOSED MERGER.

Sincerely,

/s/ Brian M. Storms

PAINEWEBBER ASIA PACIFIC GROWTH FUND PROPOSED MERGER
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

On October 6, 2000, the Board of Trustees of PaineWebber Managed
Investments Trust ("Managed Investments Trust"), on behalf of its series,
PaineWebber Asia Pacific Growth Fund ("Asia Pacific Growth Fund"), unanimously
approved the merger of Asia Pacific Growth Fund into PACE International
Emerging Markets Equity Investments ("PACE International Emerging Markets
Equity Fund"), a series of PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust ("PACE
Trust"). This merger, however, can only occur if Asia Pacific Growth Fund's
shareholders approve the transaction. Here are answers to some of the most
commonly asked questions.

WHAT IS A MERGER?

A fund is said to merge with another fund when it transfers its assets and
liabilities to that other fund; subsequently, the old fund ceases to operate.
Shareholders of the old fund become shareholders of the acquiring fund.

WHY IS THIS MERGER BEING PROPOSED?

Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ("Mitchell Hutchins") and the Board
of Managed Investments Trust believe that Asia Pacific Growth Fund's most
attractive and significant feature is its investment in stocks of companies in
emerging market countries and that the Fund's shareholders will benefit from
the merger because the combined Fund would have a larger asset base to invest
in stocks of companies in emerging market countries and would have lower
expenses. If the proposed merger does not occur, Mitchell Hutchins and the
Board believe that Asia Pacific Growth Fund's small and declining asset base
may make it increasingly difficult to manage efficiently and could adversely
affect the Fund's prospects for successful performance over the long term.

Asia Pacific Growth Fund started operations in March 1997, but its assets
never exceeded $45.4 million and have been relatively flat or declining over
the past 11 months. As of November 30, 2000, the Fund's net assets were
approximately $22 million. As a result of this relatively low and declining
asset level, the Fund has been difficult to manage efficiently and its
expenses have remained relatively high. Asia Pacific Growth Fund and PACE
International Emerging Markets Equity Fund have similar investment objectives
in that each Fund seeks capital appreciation, and each Fund's assets have been
managed since its inception by the same sub-adviser, Schroder Investment
Management North America Inc. ("SIMNA"), a firm that is not affiliated with
Mitchell Hutchins. While both Funds invest in stocks of companies in emerging
market countries, they do so to different extents and subject to different
geographical parameters. PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund
invests primarily in stocks of companies in emerging market countries and is
not limited to any one geographic region. Asia Pacific Growth Fund invests
primarily in stocks of companies in the Asia Pacific Region (other than
Japan), including stocks of companies in both developed and emerging market
countries within that region. Although the universe of potential investments
is thus different for the two Funds, SIMNA applies the same basic strategies
in deciding which stocks to buy or sell for the two Funds. (See "Comparison of
the Funds" on page 6 of the Combined Proxy Statement/Prospectus for more
information on the investment policies and risks of each Fund.)

Mitchell Hutchins and Managed Investments Trust's Board believe that the
merger would not materially adversely affect the shareholders of Asia Pacific
Growth Fund notwithstanding the differences in the two Funds' investment
policies. The combined Fund would invest primarily in stocks of companies in
emerging market countries, which the Board and Mitchell Hutchins believe is
Asia Pacific Growth Fund's most attractive and significant feature for its
shareholders, and would have lower operating expenses.

HOW MANY SHARES WILL I RECEIVE AT THE TIME OF THE MERGER?

If the merger is approved, you will receive full and fractional shares of
the corresponding class of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund
having a total value equal to the total value of your Asia Pacific Growth Fund
shares at the time of the merger. Although the two Funds will have different
net asset values per

1
<PAGE>

share, each class of shares of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund
issued in the merger will otherwise have characteristics that are
substantially identical to the corresponding class of shares of Asia Pacific
Growth Fund.

IF I CURRENTLY ELECT TO RECEIVE MY ASIA PACIFIC GROWTH FUND DIVIDEND AS CASH
OR IF I HAVE THE DIVIDEND AUTOMATICALLY REINVESTED INTO THE FUND, WILL MY
DISTRIBUTION CHOICE REMAIN THE SAME FOR MY PACE INTERNATIONAL EMERGING MARKETS
EQUITY FUND SHARES AFTER THE MERGER?

Yes, your distribution choice will remain the same after the merger.

WILL I HAVE TO PAY TAXES AS A RESULT OF THE MERGER?

The merger has been structured as a tax-free transaction, which means that
no gain or loss will be recognized by either Fund as a direct result of the
merger. This means that you will not realize any gain or loss on your receipt
of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund shares, and that your basis
for the PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund shares you receive in
the merger will be the same as the basis for your Asia Pacific Growth Fund
shares.

Immediately prior to the merger, Asia Pacific Growth Fund will have to
distribute all of its previously undistributed income and net capital gain, if
any, to its shareholders, and that distribution will be taxable to Asia
Pacific Growth Fund shareholders. You should note, however, that both Funds
must distribute by December 31, 2000 their ordinary income for the calendar
year ending December 31, 2000 and net capital gain, if any, for the one-year
period ended October 31, 2000. This distribution must be made regardless of
whether the merger takes place because of tax requirements applicable to all
mutual funds. Asia Pacific Growth Fund, however, has little or no ordinary
income and has substantial capital loss carryforwards, which means that if you
remain a shareholder of the Fund and the merger takes place, you are not
likely to receive any taxable distributions prior to the merger.

HOW WILL THE MERGER AFFECT FUND EXPENSES?

The post-merger combined Fund is expected to have overall operating
expenses that are lower than the current operating expenses of Asia Pacific
Growth Fund due to economies of scale and a lower management fee paid by PACE
International Emerging Markets Equity Fund to Mitchell Hutchins. The overall
operating expenses of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund are also
subject to a written management fee waiver and expense reimbursement agreement
between the Fund and Mitchell Hutchins, which will remain in effect through
December 1, 2002. Even absent that agreement, however, it is expected that the
overall operating expenses of the combined Fund would be lower than the
current operating expenses of Asia Pacific Growth Fund. (For more details
about fees and expenses of each class of shares, see "Comparative Fee Table"
on page 3 of the Combined Proxy Statement/Prospectus.)

HOW HAVE PACE INTERNATIONAL EMERGING MARKETS EQUITY FUND AND ASIA PACIFIC
GROWTH FUND PERFORMED?

The following tables show the average annual total returns over several
time periods for each class of shares of Asia Pacific Growth Fund and the
Class P shares of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund (the only
outstanding class of shares during the periods shown). A Fund's past
performance does not necessarily indicate how it will perform in the future.

The table for Asia Pacific Growth Fund reflects sales charges on its Class
A, B and C shares and the higher expenses for these classes due to the fees
paid under their Rule 12b-1 plans. The table for PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund reflects the maximum annual PaineWebber PACESM Select
Advisors Program fee of 1.50% (which does not apply to shares received in the
merger). A footnote to this table shows the performance of PACE International
Emerging Markets Equity Fund's Class P shares for the same periods without
deduction of this fee. The tables also compare each Fund's returns to returns
of a broad-based market index. The comparative indices, which are different
for the two Funds, are unmanaged and, therefore, do not reflect the deduction
of any sales charges or expenses.

2
<PAGE>

The different sales charges, expenses and program fees applicable to the
different classes of shares of the two Funds and the different periods for
which performance is shown after the 1999 calendar year make it difficult to
compare the Funds' performance. However, because the Class Y shares of Asia
Pacific Growth Fund are not subject to any sales charges or 12b-1 fees, they
are most comparable to the Class P shares of PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund. The performance of Asia Pacific Growth Fund's Class Y
shares for the 1999 calendar year can thus be compared to that of the Class P
shares of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund before deduction of
the PACESM Select Advisors Program fee, as shown in the footnote to that
Fund's table.

WHEN WILL THE PROPOSED MERGER OCCUR?

The Funds expect to merge in February 2001, assuming Asia Pacific Growth
Fund shareholder approval at the special meeting scheduled to be held on
January 25, 2001.

CAN I SELL OR EXCHANGE MY ASIA PACIFIC GROWTH FUND SHARES BEFORE THE MERGER?

If you do not wish to receive shares of PACE International Emerging Markets
Equity Fund, you are free to sell or exchange your Asia Pacific Growth Fund
shares at any time prior to the merger. You will be subject to any applicable
contingent deferred sales charges and taxes if you sell your Asia Pacific
Growth Fund shares. If you elect to exchange your shares prior to the merger,
you may be subject to taxes. Consult your tax adviser for the tax implications
of an exchange. Please call your Financial Advisor to discuss your investment
options or with any questions.

WHAT IS THE BOARD'S RECOMMENDATION ON THE MERGER?

Your Board of Trustees unanimously recommends a vote "FOR" the merger.

Pursuant to the Plan, Asia Pacific Growth Fund will transfer all its assets
to PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund, which will assume all the
stated liabilities of Asia Pacific Growth Fund, and PACE Trust will issue to
each Asia Pacific Growth Fund shareholder the number of full and fractional
shares of beneficial interest in the applicable class of PACE International

the shareholder's shares of beneficial interest in the corresponding class of
Asia Pacific Growth Fund (the "Reorganization"). The value of each Asia
Pacific Growth Fund shareholder's account with PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund immediately after the Reorganization will be the same as

INTRODUCTION

This Proxy Statement/Prospectus is being furnished to shareholders of Asia
Pacific Growth Fund, a series of Managed Investments Trust, in connection with
the solicitation of proxies by the Board for use at the Meeting. All properly
executed and unrevoked proxies received in time for the Meeting will be voted
as instructed by shareholders. Approval of the proposal requires the
affirmative vote of the lesser of (1) 67% or more of the shares of Asia
Pacific Growth Fund present at the Meeting, if more than 50% of the
outstanding shares are represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy, or
(2) more than 50% of the outstanding shares entitled to vote at the Meeting.
If you execute your proxy but give no voting instructions, your shares that
are represented by proxies will be voted "FOR" the proposal described in this
Proxy Statement/Prospectus. The presence in person or by proxy of Asia Pacific
Growth Fund shareholders entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled
to be cast at the Meeting will constitute a quorum. If a quorum is not present
at the Meeting or a quorum is present but sufficient votes to approve the
proposal are not received, the persons named as proxies may propose one or
more adjournments of the Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies.
Any such adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the
shares represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy. The persons named as
proxies will vote those proxies that they are entitled to vote "FOR" the
proposal in favor of such an adjournment and will vote those proxies required
to be voted "AGAINST" the proposal against such adjournment.

Broker non-votes are shares held in "street name" for which the broker
indicates that instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners
or other persons entitled to vote and for which the broker does not have
discretionary voting authority. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be
counted as shares present at the Meeting for quorum purposes but will not be
(i) considered votes cast at the Meeting or (ii) voted for or against any
adjournment or proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes are effectively
votes against the proposal.

Any person giving a proxy has the power to revoke it at any time prior to
its exercise by executing a superseding proxy or by submitting a written
notice of revocation to the Secretary of Managed Investments Trust
("Secretary"). To be effective, such revocation must be received by the
Secretary prior to the Meeting. In addition, although mere attendance at the
Meeting will not revoke a proxy, a shareholder present at the Meeting may
withdraw his or her proxy by voting in person.

Mitchell Hutchins (not the Funds) will bear the expenses of the
Reorganization. Managed Investments Trust intends to first mail this Proxy
Statement/Prospectus and the accompanying proxy card on or about December 22,
2000. Shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 21, 2000
("Record Date"), are entitled to vote at the Meeting. On the Record Date, Asia
Pacific Growth Fund had 2,573,605 shares issued and outstanding, consisting of
950,561 Class A shares, 1,100,916 Class B shares, 501,812 Class C shares, and
20,315 Class Y shares. Shareholders are entitled to one vote for each full
share held and a fractional vote for each fractional share held. Except as set
forth in Appendix B, as of the Record Date, Mitchell Hutchins, the investment
manager, administrator and distributor of both Funds, does not know of any
other person who owns beneficially or of record 5% or more of any class of
shares of either Fund. As of that same date, the Trustees and officers, as a
group, owned less than 1% of any class of either Fund's outstanding shares.

Managed Investments Trust has engaged the services of Shareholder
Communications Corporation ("SCC") to assist it in the solicitation of proxies
for the Meeting. Managed Investments Trust expects to solicit proxies by mail,
telephone and via the internet. Managed Investments Trust officers and
employees of Mitchell Hutchins who assist in the proxy solicitation will not
receive any additional or special compensation for any such efforts. SCC will
be paid approximately $7,500 for proxy solicitation services. Managed
Investments Trust will request broker/dealer firms, custodians, nominees and
fiduciaries to forward proxy materials to the beneficial owners of the shares
held of record by such persons. Mitchell Hutchins may reimburse such
broker/dealer firms, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable
expenses incurred in connection with such proxy solicitation.

PROPOSAL: TO APPROVE OR DISAPPROVE THE AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
AND TERMINATION.

SYNOPSIS

The following is a summary of certain information contained elsewhere in
this Proxy Statement/Prospectus, the Statement of Additional Information, and
the Plan. As discussed more fully below, Managed Investments Trust's Board
believes that the proposed Reorganization will benefit Asia Pacific Growth
Fund's shareholders.

THE PROPOSED REORGANIZATION

The Boards of PACE Trust and Managed Investments Trust, including their
respective Trustees who are not "interested persons," as that term is defined
in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act") ("Independent
Trustees"), considered and approved the Plan at meetings held on September 13,
2000 and October 6, 2000, respectively. The Plan provides for the acquisition
by PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund of all of Asia Pacific
Growth Fund's assets in exchange for PACE International Emerging Markets
Equity Fund shares and the assumption by PACE International Emerging Markets
Equity Fund of all of Asia Pacific Growth Fund's stated liabilities. Asia
Pacific Growth Fund will then distribute the PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund shares to Asia Pacific Growth Fund's shareholders, by
class, so that each Asia Pacific Growth Fund shareholder will receive the
number of full and fractional shares of the corresponding class of PACE
International Emerging Markets Equity Fund equal in aggregate NAV to the
aggregate NAV of the shares of Asia Pacific Growth Fund that the shareholder
held at the time of the Reorganization. These transactions are scheduled to
occur as of 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, on February 9, 2001, or on such later
date as the conditions to consummation of the Reorganization are satisfied
("Closing Date"). Asia Pacific Growth Fund will be terminated as soon as is
practicable after the Closing Date. See "Additional Information About the
Reorganization," below.

Managed Investments Trust and PACE Trust will each receive an opinion of
Kirkpatrick & Lockhart LLP to the effect that the Reorganization will
constitute a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of section
368(a)(1)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code").
Accordingly, neither Fund nor any of its shareholders will recognize any gain
or loss for federal income tax purposes as a direct result of the
Reorganization. To the extent Asia Pacific Growth Fund sells securities prior
to the Closing Date, it may recognize net gains or losses. Any such net
recognized gains would increase the amount of any distribution made to
shareholders of Asia Pacific Growth Fund prior to the Closing Date. See
"Additional Information About the Reorganization -- Federal Income Tax
Considerations," below.

For the reasons set forth below under "Additional Information About the
Reorganization -- Reasons for the Reorganization," the Board of Managed
Investments Trust has determined that the Reorganization is in the best
interests of Asia Pacific Growth Fund and that the interests of existing Asia
Pacific Growth Fund shareholders will not be diluted as a result of the
Reorganization. ACCORDINGLY, MANAGED INVESTMENTS TRUST'S BOARD UNANIMOUSLY
RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF THE REORGANIZATION.

COMPARATIVE FEE TABLE

The table below describes the fees and expenses that you would pay if you
buy and hold Asia Pacific Growth Fund shares or PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund shares before the Reorganization and PACE International
Emerging Markets Equity Fund shares after the Reorganization. The "Annual Fund
Operating Expenses" set forth below are based on the fees and expenses for the
fiscal year ended July 31, 2000 for PACE International Emerging Markets Equity
Fund and for the six months ended April 30, 2000 (annualized) for Asia Pacific
Growth Fund. The pro forma information reflects the anticipated effects of the
Reorganization as well as the proposed reorganization of PaineWebber Emerging
Markets Equity Fund with PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund,
which is expected to occur at approximately the same time as the
Reorganization.

* The PRO FORMA expense information assumes that shareholders of Asia Pacific
Growth Fund and PaineWebber Emerging Markets Equity Fund approve the
proposed reorganizations. If shareholders of Asia Pacific Growth Fund
approve the Reorganization and shareholders of PaineWebber Emerging Markets
Equity Fund do not approve its reorganization, the PRO FORMA "Net Expenses"
for each class of shares of the combined Fund would be the same as shown
above due to the management fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangement
in effect for PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund.

** For both Funds, "Management Fees" include fees paid to Mitchell Hutchins
for administrative services.

*** "Other Expenses" for PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund are
estimated based on the "other expenses" of the Fund's outstanding Class P
shares for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2000, as adjusted to reflect
estimated transfer agency expenses for each class. "Other Expenses" for
each class of the combined Fund are based on the combined assets of Asia
Pacific Growth Fund, PaineWebber Emerging Markets Equity Fund and PACE
International Emerging Markets Equity Fund.

+ PACE Trust and Mitchell Hutchins have entered into a written agreement with
respect to PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund under which
Mitchell Hutchins is contractually obligated to waive its management fees
and/or reimburse the Fund to the extent that the total operating expenses of
each class through December 1, 2002 otherwise would exceed the sum of 1.50%
(the expense cap for the Fund's Class P shares) plus the 12b-1 fees, if any,
and any higher transfer agency fees applicable to the class. The Fund has
agreed to repay Mitchell Hutchins for any reimbursed expenses if it can do
so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Fund's expenses
in any of those three years to exceed these expense caps.

The example below is intended to help you compare the costs of investing in
each Fund, both before and after the Reorganization.

The example below assumes that you invest $10,000 in each Fund (including
the combined 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
investments each have a 5% return each year and that each Fund's operating
expenses remain the same, except for the two-year period when PACE
International Emerging Markets Equity Fund's and the combined Fund's expenses
are lower due to the agreement with Mitchell Hutchins. Although your actual
returns and costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your
costs would be:

SUMMARY COMPARISON OF THE FUNDS

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

The Funds have similar investment objectives and overall risk
characteristics. Each Fund seeks capital appreciation. However, while both
Funds invest in stocks of companies in emerging market countries, they do so
to different extents and subject to different geographical parameters. Asia
Pacific Growth Fund invests primarily in stocks of companies in the Asia
Pacific Region (other than Japan), including stocks of companies in developed
and emerging market countries within that region. PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund invests primarily in stocks of companies domiciled in
emerging market countries and is not limited to any one geographic region.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY SERVICES

Mitchell Hutchins has served as investment manager and administrator for
PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund since its inception in August
1995. As investment manager for the Fund, Mitchell Hutchins provides portfolio
management oversight rather than directly managing the Fund's investments.
Mitchell Hutchins provides portfolio management oversight principally by
performing initial reviews of prospective sub-advisers and supervising and
monitoring the performance of the sub-advisers thereafter. Mitchell Hutchins
also recommends to the Board of PACE Trust whether agreements with sub-
advisers should be renewed, modified or terminated. The Fund's current sub-
adviser -- Schroder Investment Management North America Inc. ("SIMNA") -- has
managed the Fund's investment portfolio since its inception.

<PAGE>

Mitchell Hutchins has served as investment adviser and administrator for
Asia Pacific Growth Fund since its inception in March 1997. SIMNA also has
served as the Fund's sub-adviser and managed its investment portfolio since
its inception.

PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION PROCEDURES

Funds in the PaineWebber Flexible PricingSM System generally offer Class A,
Class B, Class C and Class Y shares. PACE International Emerging Markets
Equity Fund did not offer Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Y shares to the
public prior to November 27, 2000. The purchase and redemption procedures for
PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund's Class A, Class B, Class C
and Class Y shares are the same as those currently in effect for the
corresponding classes of shares of Asia Pacific Growth Fund. You may exchange
Class A, Class B or Class C shares of PACE International Emerging Markets
Equity Fund for shares of the same class of most other PACE funds or of
PaineWebber Money Market Fund. Exchanges between other PaineWebber funds and
PACE funds will not be activated until on or around March 1, 2001. You may not
exchange Class Y shares.

COMPARISON OF PRINCIPAL RISK FACTORS

Both Funds are subject to similar risk factors associated with their
investments in foreign equities. An investment in either Fund is not
guaranteed; an investor may lose money by investing in either Fund. The
principal risks presented by the Funds are:

EQUITY RISK -- The prices of common stocks and other equity securities
generally fluctuate more than those of other investments. They reflect changes
in the issuing company's financial condition and changes in the overall
market. A Fund may lose a substantial part, or even all, of its investment in
a company's stock.

FOREIGN INVESTING AND EMERGING MARKETS RISKS -- 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. Foreign investments denominated in foreign currencies are
subject to the risk that the value of a foreign currency will fall in relation
to the U.S. dollar. Currency exchange rates can be volatile and can be
affected by, among other factors, the general economics of a country, the
actions of U.S. and foreign governments or central banks, the imposition of
currency controls and speculation.

Securities of issuers located in emerging market countries are subject to
all of the risks of other foreign securities. However, the level of those
risks often is higher due to the fact that social, political, legal and
economic systems in emerging market countries may be less fully developed and
less stable than those in developed countries. Emerging market securities also
may be subject to additional risks, such as lower liquidity and larger or more
rapid changes in value.

GEOGRAPHIC AND REGIONAL CONCENTRATION RISK -- PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund will not necessarily seek to diversify its investments on
a geographic basis within the emerging markets category. To the extent the
Fund concentrates its investments in issuers located in one country or area,
it is more susceptible to factors adversely affecting that country or area.
Asia Pacific Growth Fund invests primarily in stocks of companies in the Asia
Pacific Region (excluding Japan). Factors affecting this region will affect
the value of the Fund's investments more than if the Fund invested in several
geographic areas. The Asia Pacific Region countries in which the Fund invests
generally have less stable economies, stock markets, currencies and political
systems than countries of Europe or North America. Also, countries in the Asia
Pacific Region generally are heavily dependent on international trade and on
the availability of foreign capital. This makes these countries more subject
to external influences.

DERIVATIVES RISK -- The value of "derivatives" -- so-called because their
value "derives" from the value of an underlying asset, reference rate or
index -- may rise or fall more rapidly than other investments. For some
derivatives, it is possible for a Fund to lose more than the amount it
invested in the derivative. Options, futures

5
<PAGE>

contracts and forward currency contracts are examples of derivatives. A Fund's
use of derivatives may not succeed for various reasons, including unexpected
changes in the value of the derivatives or the assets underlying them. Also,
if a Fund uses derivatives to adjust or "hedge" the overall risk of the
portfolio, the hedge may not succeed if changes in the values of the
derivatives are not matched by opposite changes in the value of the assets
being hedged.

COMPARISON OF THE FUNDS

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES

The Funds have similar investment objectives in that each seeks capital
appreciation. PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund's investment
objective is capital appreciation, while Asia Pacific Growth Fund's investment
objective is long-term capital appreciation.

INVESTMENT POLICIES

The Funds have different investment policies. Although both Funds invest in
stocks of companies in emerging market countries, they do so to different
extents and subject to different geographical parameters. Asia Pacific Growth
Fund invests primarily in stocks of companies domiciled in the Asia Pacific
Region (other than Japan), including stocks of companies domiciled in
developed and emerging market countries within that region. PACE International
Emerging Markets Equity Fund invests primarily in stocks of companies
domiciled in emerging market countries and is not limited to any one
geographic region.

PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund generally defines emerging
market countries as countries that are not included in the MSCI World Index of
major world economies. Countries included in this index may be considered
emerging markets based on current political and economic factors. For example,
SIMNA has determined, based on an analysis of current economic and political
factors pertaining to Hong Kong SAR, that Hong Kong SAR should be considered
as an emerging market country for purposes of PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund's eligible investments. PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund may not always diversify its investments on a geographic
basis among emerging market countries.

In selecting investments for each Fund, SIMNA focuses on companies that it
believes have a sustainable competitive advantage and growth potential that is
undervalued by other investors. SIMNA allocates PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund's assets among emerging market countries, and Asia Pacific
Growth Fund's assets among Asia Pacific Region countries, based on its
assessment of the likelihood that those countries will have favorable long-
term business environments. In deciding which securities within a country to
buy or sell for each Fund, SIMNA analyzes historical growth rates and future
growth prospects, management capability and profit margins. SIMNA's evaluation
of securities reflects information available from the extensive network of
locally based analysts maintained by SIMNA and its affiliates. SIMNA generally
sells securities when either the country or the issuer no longer meets these
selection criteria or when it identifies more attractive investment
opportunities.

DEBT SECURITIES. PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund may invest
up to 35% of its total assets in bonds, including up to 10% of its total
assets in bonds (including convertible bonds) that are below investment grade.
Asia Pacific Growth Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in
convertible and non-convertible bonds (which may be below investment grade) of
governmental or private issuers in the Asia Pacific Region. Below investment
grade securities are commonly known as "junk bonds."

DERIVATIVES. The Funds have identical policies with respect to the use of
derivatives relating to the securities in which they normally invest. Each
Fund may (but is not required to) use options, futures contracts, forward
currency contracts and other derivatives as part of its investment strategy or
to help manage portfolio risks.

6
<PAGE>

TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS; CASH RESERVES. Each Fund may take a
defensive position that is different from its normal investment strategy to
protect itself from adverse market conditions. This means that each Fund may
temporarily invest a larger-than-normal part, or even all, of its assets in
cash or money market instruments. In addition, each Fund may increase its cash
reserves to facilitate the transition to the investment style and strategies
of a new sub-adviser. Because these investments provide relatively low income,
a defensive or transitional position may not be consistent with achieving a
Fund's investment objective. PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund
is normally fully invested in accordance with its investment objective and
policies. However, with the concurrence of Mitchell Hutchins, PACE
International Emerging Markets Equity Fund may take a defensive position that
is different from its normal investment strategy.

Each Fund may invest to a limited extent in money market instruments as a
cash reserve for liquidity or other purposes.

OTHER INVESTMENT POLICIES. Each Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets
in illiquid securities. Each 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. PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund and Asia
Pacific Growth Fund may borrow money from banks or through reverse repurchase
agreements for temporary or emergency purposes, but not in excess of 10% and
33 1/3% of each Fund's respective total assets. Neither Fund may purchase
securities while borrowings in excess of 5% of its total assets are
outstanding. Each Fund may invest, to a limited extent, in securities of other
investment companies and may sell short "against the box."

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER. Each Fund may engage in frequent trading to achieve its
investment objectives. Frequent trading may result in portfolio turnover of
100% or more (high portfolio turnover). Frequent trading may increase the
portion of a Fund's capital gains that is realized for tax purposes in any
given year, which may increase the Fund's taxable distributions in that year.
Frequent trading also may increase the portion of a Fund's realized capital
gains that is considered "short-term" for tax purposes. Shareholders will pay
higher taxes on distributions that represent net short-term capital gains than
they would pay on distributions that represent net long-term capital gains.
Frequent trading also may result in higher fund expenses due to transaction
costs. Neither Fund restricts the frequency of trading to limit expenses or
the tax effect that its distributions may have on shareholders. The portfolio
turnover rates for Asia Pacific Growth Fund for the last two fiscal years
ended October 31, 2000 and 1999, were 54% and 70%, respectively, while the
portfolio turnover rates for PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund's
last two fiscal years ended July 31, 2000 and 1999, were 115% and 66%,
respectively.

OPERATIONS OF PACE INTERNATIONAL EMERGING MARKETS EQUITY FUND FOLLOWING THE
REORGANIZATION

It is not expected that PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund
will revise any of its policies following the Reorganization to reflect those
of Asia Pacific Growth Fund. SIMNA has reviewed Asia Pacific Growth Fund's
current portfolio and determined that its holdings of stocks of companies in
emerging market countries are compatible with PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund's portfolio. However, Asia Pacific Growth Fund holds
securities of companies in developed markets within the Asia Pacific Region
that are not appropriate investments for PACE International Emerging Markets
Equity Fund. As of November 30, 2000, these investments represented
approximately 46% of Asia Pacific Growth Fund's portfolio. If shareholders of
Asia Pacific Growth Fund approve the Reorganization, all these securities will
be sold in an orderly manner and the proceeds of these sales held in temporary
investments pending reinvestment in assets that are consistent with the
holdings of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund.

In addition, some emerging markets countries (including India, Korea,
Malaysia and Taiwan) do not permit ownership of securities to be transferred
from one fund to another as part of a reorganization. As of November 30, 2000,
these investments represented approximately 33% of Asia Pacific Growth Fund's
portfolio. If shareholders of Asia Pacific Growth Fund approve the
Reorganization, all these securities also will

7
<PAGE>

be sold in an orderly manner and the proceeds of these sales held in temporary
investments pending reinvestment. SIMNA expects to reinvest these proceeds in
the same securities promptly after the Reorganization is effected, except to
the extent that it identifies more attractive investment opportunities.

The relative portion of Asia Pacific Growth Fund's assets represented by
the securities described above may change depending on SIMNA's continuing
assessment of changing market conditions and investment opportunities. It is
also expected that some of Asia Pacific Growth Fund's current holdings may not
remain at the time of the Reorganization due to normal portfolio turnover. The
need for Asia Pacific Growth Fund to dispose of assets in connection with the
Reorganization may result in its selling securities at a disadvantageous time
and could result in its realizing gains (or losses) that would not otherwise
have been realized. However, because the Fund has substantial capital loss
carryforwards to offset any realized capital gains, the liquidation of these
assets is not expected to result in any significant additional taxable
distributions to Asia Pacific Growth Fund's shareholders.

PERFORMANCE

The following bar chart and table provide information about the performance
of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund Class P shares and thus
give some indication of the risks of an investment in the Fund. The Fund's
Class P shares were the only outstanding class of shares during the periods
shown.

The bar chart shows how PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund's
performance has varied from calendar year to calendar year. The bar chart does
not reflect the maximum annual PACESM Select Advisors Program fee of 1.50%
(which does not apply to shares received in the Reorganization) or the effect
of sales charges or the higher expenses of PACE International Emerging Markets
Equity Fund's Class A, Class B and Class C shares; if it did, the total
returns shown would be lower.

The first table that follows the bar chart shows the average annual returns
over several time periods for the Fund's Class P shares. Class P shares are
not subject to the sales charges applicable to the Fund's Class A, Class B and
Class C shares or the higher expenses of these shares. The table does,
however, reflect the maximum annual PACESM Select Advisors Program fee
applicable only to Class P shares. The program fee does not apply to shares
received in the Reorganization. A footnote to this table shows performance of
PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund's Class P shares for the same
periods without the deduction of this fee. Because all classes of shares
invest in the same portfolio of securities, their annual returns would differ
only to the extent of the different sales charges, expenses and program fees.

The second table that follows the bar chart shows the average annual total
returns over several time periods for Asia Pacific Growth Fund's Class A,
Class B, Class C and Class Y shares. This table reflects sales charges and
12b-1 fees for Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the Fund. The Fund's
Class Y shares are not subject to any sales charges or 12b-1 fees and thus are
most comparable to the Class P shares of PACE International Emerging Markets
Equity Fund. The performance of Asia Pacific Growth Fund's Class Y shares for
the 1999 calendar year can thus be compared to that of the Class P shares of
PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund before deduction of the PACESM
Select Advisors Program fee, as shown in the footnote to that Fund's table.

The tables also compare each Fund's returns to returns of a broad-based
market index that is unmanaged and, therefore, does not reflect the deduction
of any fees or expenses. The two Funds have historically used different
indices -- the MSCI All Country Asia Pacific Free (ex-Japan) Index for Asia
Pacific Growth Fund and the MSCI Emerging Markets Free Index for PACE
International Emerging Markets Equity Fund. For comparative purposes, the
returns of both indices are shown for each Fund in the tables below.

Each Fund's past performance does not necessarily indicate how it will
perform in the future.

SALES CHARGES

No sales charges apply when Asia Pacific Growth Fund shareholders receive
shares of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund in connection with
the Reorganization.

DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS

Each Fund normally declares and pays dividends and distributes
substantially all of its gains, if any, annually. Classes with higher expenses
are expected to have lower dividends. For example, Class B and Class C shares
are expected to have the lowest dividends of any class of a Fund's shares,
while Class Y shares (and, for PACE International Emerging Markets Equity
Fund, Class P shares) would have the highest dividends.

As a shareholder of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund, you
will receive dividends in additional shares of the Fund unless you elect to
receive them in cash. Your current dividend distribution election for Asia
Pacific Growth Fund will remain the same after the Reorganization. Contact
your Financial Advisor at PaineWebber if you prefer to receive dividends in
cash.

On or before the Closing Date, Asia Pacific Growth Fund will distribute
substantially all of its undistributed net investment income, net capital
gain, net short-term capital gain and net gains from foreign currency
transactions, if any, in order to continue to maintain its tax status as a
regulated investment company.

TAXES

The dividends that you receive from either Fund generally are subject to
federal income tax regardless of whether you receive them in additional Fund
shares or in cash. If you hold Fund shares through a tax-exempt account or
plan, such as an IRA or 401(k) plan, dividends on your shares generally will
not be subject to tax.

When you sell Fund shares, you generally will be subject to federal income
tax on any gain you realize. If you exchange any Fund's shares for shares of
another PaineWebber mutual fund, the transaction will be treated as a sale of
the first fund's shares, and any gain will be subject to federal income tax.

Any distribution of capital gains may be taxed at a lower rate than
ordinary income, depending on whether the Fund held the assets that generated
the gains for more than 12 months. A Fund will tell you annually how you
should treat its dividends for tax purposes.

FLEXIBLE PRICING: BUYING, SELLING AND EXCHANGING
SHARES OF PACE INTERNATIONAL EMERGING MARKETS EQUITY FUND

FLEXIBLE PRICING

PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund offers four new classes of
shares -- Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Y -- established prior to the
Reorganization. The four new classes of shares of PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund and the procedures for buying, selling and exchanging
these shares, as described below, are substantially identical to the
corresponding classes of shares and related procedures of Asia Pacific Growth
Fund. Prior to November 27, 2000, PACE International Emerging Markets Equity
Fund offered only Class P shares, which are available only to participants in
the PaineWebber PACE (SM) Select Advisors Program.

No sales charges apply when Asia Pacific Growth Fund shareholders receive
Class A, Class B, Class C or Class Y shares of PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund as part of the Reorganization. PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund is offering its four new classes of shares to the general
public prior to the Reorganization. Class Y shares are only available to
certain types of investors. Class A, Class B and Class C shares purchased
other than as part of the Reorganization will be subject to the sales charges
described below. In addition, each class has different ongoing expenses.

10
<PAGE>

PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund has adopted a plan under
Rule 12b-1 governing its Class A, Class B and Class C shares that allows it to
pay service fees for providing services to shareholders and (for Class B and
Class C shares) distribution fees for the sale of its shares. The terms of
these plans are substantially identical to the terms of the corresponding
plans now in place for Asia Pacific Growth Fund's Class A, Class B and Class C
shares. Because the 12b-1 distribution fees for Class B and Class C shares are
paid out of the Fund's assets on an ongoing basis, over time they will
increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than if you paid a
front-end sales charge.

CLASS A SHARES

Class A shares have a front-end sales charge that is included in the
offering price of the Class A shares. This sales charge is not invested in the
Fund. Class A shares pay an annual 12b-1 service fee of 0.25% of average net
assets, but they pay no 12b-1 distribution fees. The ongoing expenses for
Class A shares are lower than for Class B and Class C shares.

The Class A sales charges are described in the following table.

CLASS A SALES CHARGES

----------------
(1) A contingent deferred sales charge of 1% of the shares' offering price or
the net asset value at the time of sale by the shareholder, whichever is
less, is charged on sales of shares made within one year of the purchase
date. Class A shares representing reinvestment of dividends are not
subject to this 1% charge. Withdrawals in the first year after purchase of
up to 12% of the value of the fund account under the Fund's Systematic
Withdrawal Plan are not subject to this charge.

(2) Mitchell Hutchins pays 1% to the dealer.

* For an initial period ending on or about December 29, 2000, Mitchell
Hutchins will reallow the full amount of the sales charge to selected
dealers.

SALES CHARGE REDUCTIONS AND WAIVERS. You may qualify for a lower sales
charge if you already own Class A shares of a PaineWebber or PaineWebber PACE
mutual fund. You can combine the value of Class A shares that you own in other
PaineWebber or PaineWebber PACE funds and the purchase amount of the Class A
shares of the PaineWebber or PaineWebber PACE fund that you are buying.

You may also qualify for a lower sales charge if you combine your purchases
with those of:

. your spouse, parents or children under age 21;

. your Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs);

. certain employee benefit plans, including 401(k) plans;

. a company that you control;

. a trust that you created;

11
<PAGE>

. Uniform Gifts to Minors Act/Uniform Transfers to Minors Act accounts
created by you or by a group of investors for your children; or

. accounts with the same adviser.

You may qualify for a complete waiver of the sales charge if you:

. Are an employee of PaineWebber or its affiliates or the spouse,
parent or child under age 21 of a PaineWebber employee;

. Buy these shares through a PaineWebber Financial Advisor who was
formerly employed as an investment executive with a competing
brokerage firm that was registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC,
and

-- you were the Financial Advisor's client at the competing
brokerage firm;

-- within 90 days of buying shares in a fund, you sell shares of
one or more mutual funds that were principally underwritten by
the competing brokerage firm or its affiliates, and you either
paid a sales charge to buy those shares, pay a contingent
deferred sales charge when selling them or held those shares
until the contingent deferred sales charge was waived; and

-- you purchase an amount that does not exceed the total amount of
money you received from the sale of the other mutual fund;

. Acquire these shares through the reinvestment of dividends of a
PaineWebber unit investment trust;

. Are a 401(k) or 403(b) qualified employee benefit plan with 50 or
more eligible employees in the plan or at least $1 million in assets;

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

. Acquire these shares through a PaineWebber InsightOneSM Program
brokerage account.

CLASS B SHARES

Class B shares have a contingent deferred sales charge. When you purchase
Class B shares, we invest 100% of your purchase in Fund shares. However, you
may have to pay the deferred sales charge when you sell your Fund shares,
depending on how long you own the shares.

Class B shares pay an annual 12b-1 distribution fee of 0.75% of average net
assets, as well as an annual 12b-1 service fee of 0.25% of average net assets.
If you hold your Class B shares for six years, they will automatically convert
to Class A shares, which have lower ongoing expenses.

12
<PAGE>

If you sell Class B shares before the end of six years, you will pay a
deferred sales charge. We calculate the deferred sales charge by multiplying
the lesser of the net asset value of the Class B shares at the time of
purchase or the net asset value at the time of sale by the percentage shown
below:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
PERCENTAGE BY WHICH THE
SHARES' NET ASSET
IF YOU SELL SHARES WITHIN: VALUE IS MULTIPLIED:
-------------------------- -----------------------
<S> <C>
1st year since purchase.............................. 5%
2nd year since purchase.............................. 4
3rd year since purchase.............................. 3
4th year since purchase.............................. 2
5th year since purchase.............................. 2
6th year since purchase.............................. 1
7th year since purchase.............................. None
</TABLE>

We will not impose the deferred sales charge on Class B shares representing
reinvestment of dividends or on withdrawals in any year of up to 12% of the
value of your Class B shares under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan.

For purposes of determining your deferred sales charge and when to convert
your Class B shares to Class A shares, the holding period for the Class B
shares of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund that you receive in
connection with the Reorganization will include the period for which you held
the corresponding Class B shares of Asia Pacific Growth Fund and any other
PaineWebber fund whose shares you exchanged for Class B shares of Asia Pacific
Growth Fund.

To minimize your deferred sales charge, we will assume that you are
selling:

. First, Class B shares representing reinvested dividends, and

. Second, Class B shares that you have owned the longest.

SALES CHARGE WAIVERS. You may qualify for a waiver of the deferred sales
charge on a sale of shares if:

. You participate in the Systematic Withdrawal Plan;

. You are older than 59 1/2 and are selling shares to take a
distribution from certain types of retirement plans;

. You receive a tax-free return of an excess IRA contribution;

. You receive a tax-qualified retirement plan distribution following
retirement;

. The shares are sold within one year of your death and you owned the
shares either (1) as the sole shareholder or (2) with your spouse as
a joint tenant with the right of survivorship; or

. The shares are held in trust and the death of the trustee requires
liquidation of the trust.

CLASS C SHARES

Class C shares have a level load sales charge in the form of ongoing 12b-1
distribution fees. When you purchase Class C shares, we will invest 100% of
your purchase in Fund shares.

Class C shares pay an annual 12b-1 distribution fee of 0.75% of average net
assets, as well as an annual 12b-1 service fee of 0.25% of average net assets.
Class C shares do not convert to another class of shares. This means that you
will pay the 12b-1 fees for as long as you own your shares.

Class C shares also have a contingent deferred sales charge. You may have
to pay the deferred sales charge if you sell your shares within one year of
the date you purchased them. We calculate the deferred sales charge on sales
of Class C shares by multiplying 1.00% by the lesser of the net asset value of
the Class C shares at the

13
<PAGE>

time of purchase or the net asset value at the time of sale. We will not
impose the deferred sales charge on Class C shares representing reinvestment
of dividends or on withdrawals in the first year after purchase, of up to 12%
of the value of your Class C shares under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan.

For purposes of determining your deferred sales charge, the holding period
for the Class C shares of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund that
you receive in connection with the Reorganization will include the period for
which you held the corresponding Class C shares of Asia Pacific Growth Fund
and any other PaineWebber fund whose shares you exchanged for Class C shares
of Asia Pacific Growth Fund.

You may be eligible to sell your shares without paying a contingent
deferred sales charge if you are a 401(k) or 403(b) qualified employee benefit
plan with 50 or more eligible employees in the plan or at least $1 million in
assets.

NOTE ON SALES CHARGE WAIVERS FOR CLASS A, CLASS B AND CLASS C SHARES:

If you think that you qualify for any of these sales charge waivers
described above, you will need to provide documentation to PaineWebber or the
Fund. For more information, you should contact your PaineWebber Financial
Advisor or correspondent firm or call 1-800-647-1568. If you want information
on the Fund's Systematic Withdrawal Plan, see the SAI or contact your
PaineWebber Financial Advisor or correspondent firm.

CLASS Y SHARES

Class Y shares have no sales charge. Only specific types of investors can
purchase Class Y shares. You may be eligible to purchase Class Y shares if
you:

. Buy shares through PaineWebber's PACESM Multi Advisor Program;

. Buy $10 million or more of PaineWebber fund shares at any one time;

. Are a qualified retirement plan with 5,000 or more eligible employees
or $50 million in assets;

. Are a corporation, bank, trust company, insurance company, pension
fund, employee benefit plan, professional firm, trust, estate or
educational, religious or charitable organization with 5,000 or more
employees or with over $50 million in investable assets; or

. Are an investment company advised by PaineWebber or an affiliate of
PaineWebber.

The trustee of PaineWebber's 401(k) Plus Plan for its employees is also
eligible to purchase Class Y shares.

Class Y shares do not pay ongoing distribution or service fees or sales
charges. The ongoing expenses for Class Y shares are the lowest for all the
classes.

BUYING SHARES

If you are a PaineWebber client, or a client of a PaineWebber correspondent
firm, you can purchase fund shares through your Financial Advisor. Otherwise,
you can invest in the Fund through the Fund's transfer agent, PFPC Inc. You
can obtain an application by calling 1-800-647-1568. You must complete and
sign the application and mail it, along with a check, to:

PFPC Inc.
Attn.: PaineWebber Mutual Funds
P.O. Box 8950
Wilmington, DE 19899.

14
<PAGE>

You do not have to complete an application when you make additional
investments in the Fund.

The Fund and Mitchell Hutchins reserve the right to reject a purchase order
or suspend the offering of shares.

MINIMUM INVESTMENTS

<TABLE>
<S> <C>
To open an account.......................... $1,000
To add to an account........................ $ 100
</TABLE>

The Fund may waive or reduce these amounts for:

. Employees of PaineWebber or its affiliates; or

. Participants in certain pension plans, retirement accounts,
unaffiliated investment programs or the Fund's automatic investment
plans.

FREQUENT TRADING. The interests of a Fund's long-term shareholders and its
ability to manage its investments may be adversely affected when its shares
are repeatedly bought and sold in response to short-term market fluctuations--
also known as "market timing." When large dollar amounts are involved, the
Fund may have difficulty implementing long-term investment strategies, because
it cannot predict how much cash it will have to invest. Market timing also may
force the Fund to sell portfolio securities at disadvantageous times to raise
the cash needed to buy a market timer's fund shares. These factors may hurt
the Fund's performance and its shareholders. When Mitchell Hutchins believes
frequent trading would have a disruptive effect on the Fund's ability to
manage its investments, Mitchell Hutchins and the Fund may reject purchase
orders and exchanges into the Fund by any person, group or account that
Mitchell Hutchins believes to be a market timer. The Fund may notify the
market timer that a purchase order or an exchange has been rejected after the
day the order is placed.

SELLING SHARES

You can sell your Fund shares at any time. If you own more than one class
of shares, you should specify which class you want to sell. If you do not, the
Fund will assume that you want to sell shares in the following order: Class A,
then Class C, then Class B and last, Class Y.

If you want to sell shares that you purchased recently, the Fund may delay
payment until it verifies that it has received good payment. If you purchased
shares by check, this can take up to 15 days.

If you have an account with PaineWebber or a PaineWebber correspondent
firm, you can sell shares by contacting your Financial Advisor.

If you do not have an account at PaineWebber or a correspondent firm, and
you bought your shares through the transfer agent, you can sell your shares by
writing to the Fund's transfer agent. Your letter must include:

. Your name and address;

. The Fund's name;

. The Fund account number;

. The dollar amount or number of shares you want to sell; and

15
<PAGE>

. A guarantee of each registered owner's signature. A signature
guarantee may be obtained from a financial institution, broker,
dealer or clearing agency that is a participant in one of the
medallion programs recognized by the Securities Transfer Agents
Association. These are: Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program
(STAMP), Stock Exchanges Medallion Program (SEMP) and the New York
Stock Exchange Medallion Signature Program (MSP). The Fund will not
accept signature guarantees that are not a part of these programs.

Mail the letter to:

PFPC Inc.
Attn.: PaineWebber Mutual Funds
P.O. Box 8950
Wilmington, DE 19899.

If you sell Class A shares and then repurchase Class A shares of the same
fund within 365 days of the sale, you can reinstate your account without paying
a sales charge.

It costs the Fund money to maintain shareholder accounts. Therefore, the
Fund reserves the right to repurchase all shares in any account that has a net
asset value of less than $500. If the Fund elects to do this with your account,
it will notify you that you can increase the amount invested to $500 or more
within 60 days. The Fund will not repurchase shares in accounts that fall below
$500 solely because of a decrease in the Fund's net asset value.

EXCHANGING SHARES

You may exchange Class A, Class B or Class C shares of the Fund for shares
of the same class of the other PACE funds or of PaineWebber Money Market Fund.
(It is expected that shareholders will also be able to exchange Class A, Class
B or Class C shares of a PACE fund for shares of the same class of certain
other PaineWebber mutual funds beginning on or about March 1, 2001.) You may
not exchange Class Y shares.

You will not pay either a front-end sales charge or a deferred sales charge
when you exchange shares. However, you may have to pay a deferred sales charge
if you later sell the shares you acquired in the exchange. The Fund will use
the date that you purchased the shares in the first fund to determine whether
you must pay a deferred sales charge when you sell the shares in the acquired
fund.

You may not be able to exchange your shares if your exchange is not as large
as the minimum investment amount in that other fund.

You may exchange shares of one fund for shares of another fund only after
the first purchase has settled and the first fund has received your payment.

PAINEWEBBER AND CORRESPONDENT FIRM CLIENTS. If you bought your shares through
PaineWebber or a correspondent firm, you may exchange your shares by placing an
order with your Financial Advisor.

OTHER INVESTORS. If you are not a PaineWebber or correspondent firm client, you
may exchange your shares by writing to the Fund's transfer agent. You must
include:

. Your name and address;

. The name of the fund whose shares you are selling and the name of the
fund whose shares you want to buy;

. Your account number;

16
<PAGE>

. How much you are exchanging (by dollar amount or by number of shares
to be sold); and

. A guarantee of your signature. (See "Selling Shares" for information
on obtaining a signature guarantee.)

Mail the letter to:

PFPC Inc.
Attn.: PaineWebber Mutual Funds
P.O. Box 8950
Wilmington, DE 19899.

The Fund may modify or terminate the exchange privilege at any time.

PRICING AND VALUATION

The price at which you may buy, sell or exchange Fund shares is based on net
asset value per share. The Fund calculates net asset value on days that the New
York Stock Exchange, Inc. ("NYSE") is open. Each Fund calculates net asset
value separately for each class as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE
(generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). The NYSE normally is not open on most
national holidays and on Good Friday, and the Fund does not price its shares on
these days. If trading on the NYSE is halted for the day before 4:00 p.m.,
Eastern time, the Fund's net asset value per share will be calculated as of the
time trading was halted.

Your price for buying, selling or exchanging shares will be based on the net
asset value that is next calculated after the Fund accepts your order. If you
place your order through PaineWebber, your PaineWebber Financial Advisor is
responsible for making sure that your order is promptly sent to the Fund.

You should keep in mind that a front-end sales charge may be applied to your
purchase if you buy Class A shares. A deferred sales charge may be applied when
you sell Class B or Class C shares.

The Fund calculates its net asset value based on the current market value
for its portfolio securities. The Fund normally obtains market values for its
securities from independent pricing services that use reported last sales
prices, current market quotations or valuations from computerized "matrix"
systems that derive values based on comparable securities. If a market value is
not available from an independent pricing source for a particular security,
that security is valued at a fair value determined by or under the direction of
the Fund's board. The Fund normally uses the amortized cost method to value
bonds that will mature in 60 days or less.

Judgment plays a greater role in valuing thinly traded securities, including
many lower-rated bonds, because there is less reliable, objective data
available.

The Fund calculates the U.S. dollar value of investments that are
denominated in foreign currencies daily, based on current exchange rates. The
Fund may own securities, including some securities that trade primarily in
foreign markets, that trade on weekends or other days on which the fund does
not calculate net asset value. As a result, the Fund's net asset value may
change on days when you will not be able to buy and sell Fund shares. If the
Fund concludes that a material change in the value of a foreign security has
occurred after the close of trading in the principal foreign market but before
the close of the NYSE, the Fund may use fair value methods to reflect those
changes. This policy is intended to assure that the Fund's net asset value
fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing.

MANAGEMENT

INVESTMENT MANAGER AND INVESTMENT ADVISER

Mitchell Hutchins serves as the investment manager or investment adviser
and as administrator of both Funds. Mitchell Hutchins is located at 51 West
52nd Street, New York, New York 10019-6114, and is a wholly owned asset
management subsidiary of PaineWebber Incorporated, which is a wholly owned
indirect subsidiary of UBS AG. UBS AG, with headquarters in Zurich,
Switzerland, is an internationally diversified organization with operations in
many areas of the financial services industry. On October 31, 2000, Mitchell
Hutchins was adviser or sub-adviser of 31 investment companies with 75
separate portfolios and aggregate assets of approximately $58.3 billion.

As investment manager for PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund,
Mitchell Hutchins recommends sub-advisers to the Board of PACE Trust to manage
the Fund's investments and monitors and reviews the performance of those sub-
advisers. PACE Trust has received an exemptive order from the SEC to permit
Mitchell Hutchins (subject to Board approval) to select and replace sub-
advisers and to amend the sub-advisory contracts between Mitchell Hutchins and
the sub-advisers without obtaining shareholder approval.

As investment adviser for Asia Pacific Growth Fund, Mitchell Hutchins
recommends sub-advisers to the Board of Managed Investments Trust and monitors
and reviews the performance of those sub-advisers.

SUB-ADVISER

SIMNA manages the assets of each Fund. SIMNA is located at 787 Seventh
Avenue, New York, New York 10019. SIMNA and its affiliates have developed an
expertise in emerging markets investments. As of June 30, 2000, SIMNA had
approximately $46 billion in assets under management. As of the same date,
SIMNA's ultimate parent, Schroders plc, and its affiliates collectively had
approximately $217 billion in assets under management.

All investment decisions for PACE International Emerging Markets Equity
Fund are made by SIMNA's emerging markets investment committee. The investment
committee consists of investment professionals with specific geographic or
regional expertise, as well as members responsible for economic analysis and
strategy and global stock and sector selection.

ADVISORY FEES AND FUND EXPENSES

PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund pays fees to Mitchell
Hutchins for management and administrative services at the combined annual
contract rate of 1.10% of average daily net assets. This combined fee includes
an annual contract rate of 0.90% for investment management services and 0.20%
for administrative services, both expressed as a percentage of the Fund's
average daily net assets. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2000, PACE
International Emerging Markets Equity Fund paid Mitchell Hutchins at the lower
effective rate of 0.85% of the Fund's average daily net assets because
Mitchell Hutchins waived a portion of its fee. Asia Pacific Growth Fund paid
fees to Mitchell Hutchins for investment advisory and administrative services
for the Fund's fiscal year ended October 31, 2000 at the annual rate of 1.20%
of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Mitchell Hutchins anticipates that shareholders of each class of shares of
Asia Pacific Growth Fund who will become shareholders of the corresponding
class of shares of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund will be
subject to total annual operating expenses that are lower than the expenses
they currently pay as shareholders of Asia Pacific Growth Fund due to
economies of scale and the lower management and administrative services fees
paid by PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund to Mitchell Hutchins.
The overall operating expenses of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity
Fund are also subject to a written management fee waiver and expense
reimbursement agreement between the Fund and Mitchell Hutchins, which will
remain in effect through December 1, 2002. Even absent that agreement,
however, it is expected that

18
<PAGE>

the overall operating expenses for each class of shares of the combined Fund
would be lower than the current expenses of the corresponding class of shares
of Asia Pacific Growth Fund.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE REORGANIZATION

REASONS FOR THE REORGANIZATION

Managed Investments Trust's Board approved the proposed Reorganization at a
meeting held on October 6, 2000. As described more fully below, the Board and
Mitchell Hutchins believe that Asia Pacific Growth Fund's most attractive and
significant feature for its shareholders is the Fund's investment in stocks of
companies in emerging market countries. The Board and Mitchell Hutchins
concluded that the Fund's shareholders would benefit from the Reorganization
because the combined Fund would have a larger asset base to invest in stocks
of companies in emerging market countries and would have lower expenses. The
Board and Mitchell Hutchins also noted that Asia Pacific Growth Fund's
relatively small and declining asset base may make it increasingly difficult
to manage efficiently and could adversely affect the Fund's prospects for
successful performance over the long term.

At the meeting of Managed Investments Trust's Board on October 6, 2000 and
in a series of prior meetings and presentations, Mitchell Hutchins explained
to the Board that it had undertaken an extensive review of whether the best
interests of shareholders of a number of PaineWebber funds, including Asia
Pacific Growth Fund, would be served by continuing to operate the funds under
their current arrangements. For Asia Pacific Growth Fund, Mitchell Hutchins'
review included a possible reorganization into another PaineWebber fund.
Mitchell Hutchins noted that the assets of Asia Pacific Growth Fund, which
commenced operations in March 1997, have never exceeded $45.4 million and have
been relatively flat or declining over the past 11 months. As of November 30,
2000, the Fund's net assets were approximately $22 million. As a result of
these relatively low and declining asset levels, the Fund has been difficult
to manage efficiently and its expenses have remained relatively high.

Mitchell Hutchins also noted that PACE International Emerging Markets
Equity Fund and Asia Pacific Growth Fund have similar investment objectives in
that each seeks capital appreciation. Mitchell Hutchins further noted that
both Funds invest in stocks of companies in emerging market countries and that
each Fund's assets have been managed since its inception by SIMNA. Mitchell
Hutchins pointed out, however, that there are significant differences in the
two Fund's investment policies. Asia Pacific Growth Fund invests primarily in
stocks of companies in the Asia Pacific Region (other than Japan), including
stocks of companies in developed and emerging market countries within that
region. PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund invests primarily in
stocks of companies in emerging market countries and is not limited to any one
geographic region. Although the universe of potential investments is thus
different for the two Funds, SIMNA applies the same basic investment
strategies in deciding which stocks to buy or sell for the two Funds. (See
"Comparison of the Funds" above for a more complete description of the
investment objectives, policies and risks of each Fund.)

Mitchell Hutchins stated its belief that Asia Pacific Growth Fund's most
attractive and significant feature for its shareholders was its investment in
companies in emerging markets. As a result, Mitchell Hutchins believed that
the proposed Reorganization would likely benefit Asia Pacific Growth Fund's
shareholders because the combined Fund would have a larger asset base to
invest in these securities and thus greater opportunities to diversify
investments. Mitchell Hutchins noted that the combined Fund also would have
lower expenses. Mitchell Hutchins also stated its belief that the
Reorganization would not materially adversely affect the shareholders of Asia
Pacific Growth Fund notwithstanding the differences in the two Fund's
investment policies.

Mitchell Hutchins noted that the investment management and administrative
services fees currently paid by PACE International Emerging Markets Equity
Fund are less than those currently paid by Asia Pacific Growth Fund. In
addition, Mitchell Hutchins informed the Board of Managed Investments Trust
that it anticipated that current shareholders of each class of shares of Asia
Pacific Growth Fund who will become shareholders of PACE

19
<PAGE>

International Emerging Markets Equity Fund if the Reorganization is approved
will be subject to total annual operating expenses that are lower than the
expenses they currently pay as shareholders of Asia Pacific Growth Fund due to
economies of scale and the lower management and administrative services fees
of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund. While the overall
operating expenses of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund are
subject to a written management fee waiver and expense reimbursement agreement
between the Fund and Mitchell Hutchins, which will remain in effect through
December 1, 2002, Mitchell Hutchins noted that the overall operating expenses
of the combined Fund would be lower than the current expenses of Asia Pacific
Growth Fund even without this agreement. (See "Comparative Fee Table" above
for a more complete description of the fees and expenses of the Funds, both
before and after the Reorganization.)

Mitchell Hutchins also noted that PACE International Emerging Markets
Equity Fund has the additional flexibility to change its sub-adviser or add
additional sub-advisers when Mitchell Hutchins and the Board of PACE Trust
decide, without the cost or delay of needing first to obtain approval by a
vote of the shareholders of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund.

Finally, Mitchell Hutchins reviewed with the Board of Managed Investments
Trust the principal terms of the Plan. Mitchell Hutchins informed the Board
that the Reorganization would be tax-free to Asia Pacific Growth Fund and its
shareholders, that shareholders of the combined Fund after the Reorganization
could continue to exchange into other PaineWebber open-end funds without
having to pay an additional sales load should their investment priorities
change, and that no sales charges would be imposed on any PACE International
Emerging Markets Equity Fund shares issued in connection with the
Reorganization. Furthermore, Mitchell Hutchins informed the Board of Managed
Investments Trust that, for purposes of calculating the contingent deferred
sales charge, the holding period for the Class B and Class C shares
distributed to Class B and Class C shareholders of Asia Pacific Growth Fund
will include the holding period for the shares of Asia Pacific Growth Fund and
any other PaineWebber fund shares of the same class that were exchanged for
shares of Asia Pacific Growth Fund.

As part of its consideration, the Board of Managed Investments Trust
examined a number of factors with respect to the Reorganization, including:
(1) the compatibility of the Funds' investment objectives, policies and
restrictions; (2) the Funds' respective investment performances; (3) the
likely impact of the Reorganization on the expense ratio of PACE International
Emerging Markets Equity Fund and that expense ratio relative to Asia Pacific
Growth Fund's current expense ratio; (4) that Mitchell Hutchins would bear the
costs of the Reorganization; (5) the compatibility of the Funds' portfolio
holdings and the effect on Asia Pacific Growth Fund and its shareholders of
any realignment of its portfolio in connection with the Reorganization; (6)
the tax consequences of the Reorganization; (7) the potential benefits of the
Reorganization to other persons, including Mitchell Hutchins and its
affiliates; (8) Mitchell Hutchins' assessment that the proposed Reorganization
will be beneficial to the shareholders of Asia Pacific Growth Fund and will
not dilute their interests; (9) the advisory arrangements in place for the
Funds and the level and quality of investment advisory services provided or to
be provided by Mitchell Hutchins and SIMNA; and (10) the terms of the proposed
Plan.

On the basis of the information provided to it and its evaluation of that
information, the Board of Managed Investments Trust, including a majority of
its Independent Trustees, determined that the Reorganization would be in the
best interests of Asia Pacific Growth Fund and that the interests of existing
Asia Pacific Growth Fund shareholders will not be diluted as a result of the
Reorganization. THEREFORE, THE BOARD OF MANAGED INVESTMENTS TRUST UNANIMOUSLY
APPROVED THE REORGANIZATION AND RECOMMENDED THE APPROVAL OF THE PLAN BY THE
SHAREHOLDERS OF ASIA PACIFIC GROWTH FUND AT THE MEETING.

TERMS OF THE REORGANIZATION

The terms and conditions under which the Reorganization may be consummated
are set forth in the Plan. Significant provisions of the Plan are summarized
below; however, this summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
Plan, a copy of the form of which is attached as Appendix A to this Proxy
Statement/Prospectus.

20
<PAGE>

The Plan contemplates (1) PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund's
acquiring on the Closing Date all the assets of Asia Pacific Growth Fund in
exchange solely for PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund shares and
PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund's assumption of all of Asia
Pacific Growth Fund's stated liabilities and (2) the distribution of those
shares to Asia Pacific Growth Fund shareholders. Asia Pacific Growth Fund's
assets include all cash, cash equivalents, securities, receivables (including
interest and dividends receivable), claims and rights of action, rights to
register shares under applicable securities laws, books and records, deferred
and prepaid expenses shown as assets on its books and other property owned by
it as of the close of business on the Closing Date ("Effective Time")
(collectively, the "Assets"). PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund
will assume from Asia Pacific Growth Fund all its liabilities, debts,
obligations and duties of whatever kind or nature, whether absolute, accrued,
contingent, or otherwise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of
business, and whether or not specifically referred to in the Plan, but only to
the extent disclosed or provided for in Asia Pacific Growth Fund's most recent
annual audited and semi-annual unaudited financial statements, or incurred by
Asia Pacific Growth Fund subsequent to the date of those financial statements
and disclosed in writing to and accepted by PACE Trust (collectively, the
"Liabilities"). Asia Pacific Growth Fund agreed in the plan to use its best
efforts to discharge all of its known Liabilities prior to the Effective Time.

The value of the Assets to be acquired, and the amount of the Liabilities
to be assumed, by PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund and the NAV
per share of each class of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund
shares will be determined as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on
the Closing Date ("Valuation Time"), using the applicable valuation procedures
described in PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund's current
Prospectus and SAI. These procedures are identical to those used by Asia
Pacific Growth Fund and described in its current Prospectus and SAI. Asia
Pacific Growth Fund's NAV will be the value of the Assets to be acquired by
PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund, less the amount of the
Liabilities, as of the Valuation Time.

On, or as soon as practicable after, the Closing Date, Asia Pacific Growth
Fund will distribute to its shareholders of record as of the Effective Time
the PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund shares it receives, by
class, so that each Asia Pacific Growth Fund shareholder will receive the
number of full and fractional shares of the corresponding class of PACE
International Emerging Markets Equity Fund equal in aggregate NAV to the
shareholder's shares in Asia Pacific Growth Fund. That distribution will be
accomplished by opening accounts on the books of PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund in the names of Asia Pacific Growth Fund's shareholders
and crediting those accounts with the appropriate number of PACE International
Emerging Markets Equity Fund shares. Fractional shares of PACE International
Emerging Markets Equity Fund will be rounded to the third decimal place.

The NAV per share of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund will
not change as a result of the Reorganization. Thus, the Reorganization will
not result in a dilution of the interest of any shareholder in either Fund. In
addition, Mitchell Hutchins (not the Funds) will bear the expenses of the
Reorganization. Emerging Markets Fund will be terminated after the
Reorganization.

The consummation of the Reorganization is subject to a number of conditions
set forth in the Plan, some of which may be waived by either Fund. In
addition, the Plan may be amended in any mutually agreeable manner, except
that no amendment may be made subsequent to the Meeting that would have a
material adverse effect on the interests of Asia Pacific Growth Fund
shareholders. If the Reorganization is not approved by shareholders at the
Meeting, Asia Pacific Growth Fund will continue to operate as a series of
Managed Investments Trust, and its Board will then consider other options and
alternatives for the future of the Fund, including the liquidation of the
Fund, resubmitting this proposal for shareholder approval or other appropriate
action.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED

PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund is authorized to issue an
unlimited amount of shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.001 per share.
The Fund's shares are divided into five classes, designated Class

21
<PAGE>

A, Class B, Class C, Class Y and Class P shares. Class P shares are not
involved in the Reorganization. A share of each class of PACE International
Emerging Markets Equity Fund represents an identical interest in the Fund's
investment portfolio and has the same rights, privileges and preferences. Each
share of the Fund is entitled to participate equally in dividends and other
distributions of the Fund, except that dividends and other distributions will
appropriately reflect expenses allocated to a particular class. Shares of PACE
International Emerging Markets Equity Fund entitle their holders to one vote
per full share and fractional votes for fractional shares held. PACE Trust
does not hold annual meetings. Shares of the Fund generally are voted
together, except that only the shareholders of a particular class of the Fund
may vote on matters affecting only that class, such as the terms of a Rule
12b-1 Plan as it relates to the class. Shares of each series of PACE Trust
will be voted separately, except when an aggregate vote of all the series is
required by law.

TEMPORARY WAIVER OF INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

Certain fundamental investment restrictions of Asia Pacific Growth Fund,
which prohibit it from acquiring more than a stated percentage of ownership of
another company, might be construed as restricting its ability to carry out
the Reorganization. By approving the Plan, you agree to waive, only for the
purpose of the Reorganization, those fundamental investment restrictions that
could prohibit or otherwise impede the transaction.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The Reorganization is intended to be a tax-free reorganization within the
meaning of section 368(a)(1)(C) of the Code. Managed Investments Trust and
PACE Trust will each receive an opinion of Kirkpatrick & Lockhart LLP, counsel
to Managed Investments Trust and tax counsel to PACE Trust, substantially to
the following effect:

(1) PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund's acquisition of the
Assets in exchange solely for its shares and its assumption of the
Liabilities, followed by Asia Pacific Growth Fund's distribution of those
shares PRO RATA to its shareholders constructively in exchange for their
Asia Pacific Growth Fund shares, will qualify as a reorganization within
the meaning of section 368(a)(1)(C) of the Code, and each Fund will be "a
party to a reorganization" within the meaning of section 368(b) of the
Code;

(2) Asia Pacific Growth Fund will recognize no gain or loss on its
transfer of the Assets to PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund
in exchange solely for PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund
shares and PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund's assumption of
the Liabilities or on the subsequent distribution of those shares to Asia
Pacific Growth Fund's shareholders in constructive exchange for their Asia
Pacific Growth Fund shares;

(3) PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund will recognize no
gain or loss on its receipt of the Assets in exchange solely for its shares
and its assumption of the Liabilities;

(4) PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund's basis in the
Assets will be the same as Asia Pacific Growth Fund's basis therein
immediately before the Reorganization, and PACE International Emerging
Markets Equity Fund's holding period for the Assets will include Asia
Pacific Growth Fund's holding period therefor;

(5) An Asia Pacific Growth Fund shareholder will recognize no gain or
loss on the constructive exchange of all its Asia Pacific Growth Fund
shares solely for PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund shares
pursuant to the Reorganization; and

(6) An Asia Pacific Growth Fund shareholder's aggregate basis in the
PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund shares it receives in the
Reorganization will be the same as the aggregate basis for its Asia Pacific
Growth Fund shares it constructively surrenders in exchange for those PACE
International Emerging Markets Equity Fund shares, and its holding period
for those PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund shares will
include its holding period for those Asia Pacific Growth Fund shares,
provided the shareholder holds them as capital assets on the Closing Date.

22
<PAGE>

The opinion may state that no opinion is expressed as to the effect of the
Reorganization on the Funds or any shareholder with respect to any Asset as to
which any unrealized gain or loss is required to be recognized for federal
income tax purposes at the end of a taxable year (or on the termination or
transfer thereof) under a mark-to-market system of accounting.

Utilization by PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Fund after the
Reorganization of any pre-Reorganization capital losses realized by Asia
Pacific Growth Fund could be subject to limitation in future years under the
Code.

You should consult your tax adviser regarding the effect, if any, of the
Reorganization in light of your individual circumstances. Because the
foregoing discussion only relates to the federal income tax consequences of
the Reorganization, you also should consult your tax adviser as to state and
local tax consequences, if any, of the Reorganization.

REQUIRED VOTE

The proposal to approve the Plan requires the affirmative vote of the
lesser of (1) 67% or more of the shares of Asia Pacific Growth Fund present at
the Meeting, if more than 50% of the outstanding shares are represented at the
Meeting in person or by proxy, or (2) more than 50% of the outstanding shares
entitled to vote at the Meeting.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE PROPOSAL.

APPENDIX A

FORM OF AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION AND TERMINATION

This Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Termination ("Agreement") is
made as of , 2001, by and among PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust, a
Delaware business trust ("PACE Trust"), on behalf of PACE International
Emerging Markets Equity Investments, a segregated portfolio of assets
("series") thereof ("Acquiring Fund"), PaineWebber Managed Investments Trust,
a Massachusetts business trust ("Target Trust"), on behalf of PaineWebber Asia
Pacific Growth Fund, a series thereof ("Target"), and solely for purposes of
paragraph 7.2 hereof, Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ("Mitchell
Hutchins"). (Acquiring Fund and Target are sometimes referred to herein
individually as a "Fund" and collectively as the "Funds," and PACE Trust and
Target Trust are sometimes referred to herein individually as an "Investment
Company" and collectively as the "Investment Companies.") All agreements,
representations, actions, and obligations described herein made or to be taken
or undertaken by Acquiring Fund or Target are made and shall be taken or
undertaken by PACE Trust or Target Trust, respectively.

The Investment Companies wish to effect a reorganization described in
section 368(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code"),
and intend this Agreement to be, and adopt it as, a "plan of reorganization"
within the meaning of the regulations under section 368 of the Code
("Regulations"). The reorganization will involve the transfer of Target's
assets to Acquiring Fund in exchange solely for voting shares of beneficial
interest in Acquiring Fund and the assumption by Acquiring Fund of Target's
stated liabilities, followed by the constructive distribution of those shares
pro rata to the holders of shares of beneficial interest in Target ("Target
Shares") in exchange therefor, all on the terms and conditions set forth
herein. The foregoing transactions are referred to herein collectively as the
"Reorganization."

The Target Shares are divided into four classes, designated Class A, Class
B, Class C, and Class Y shares ("Class A Target Shares," "Class B Target
Shares," "Class C Target Shares," and "Class Y Target Shares," respectively).
Acquiring Fund's shares are divided into five classes, four of which also are
designated Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class Y shares ("Class A Acquiring
Fund Shares," "Class B Acquiring Fund Shares," "Class C Acquiring Fund
Shares," and "Class Y Acquiring Fund Shares," respectively, and collectively
"Acquiring Fund Shares"). Each class of Acquiring Fund Shares is substantially
similar to the identically designated class of Target Shares.

In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties agree
as follows:

1. PLAN OF REORGANIZATION AND TERMINATION

1.1. Target agrees to assign, sell, convey, transfer, and deliver all of
its assets described in paragraph 1.2 ("Assets") to Acquiring Fund. Acquiring
Fund agrees in exchange therefor--

(a) to issue and deliver to Target the number of full and fractional
(rounded to the third decimal place) (i) Class A Acquiring Fund
Shares determined by dividing the net value of Target (computed as
set forth in paragraph 2.1) ("Target Value") attributable to the
Class A Target Shares by the net asset value ("NAV") of a Class A
Acquiring Fund Share (computed as set forth in paragraph 2.2),
(ii) Class B Acquiring Fund Shares determined by dividing the
Target Value attributable to the Class B Target Shares by the NAV
of a Class B Acquiring Fund Share (as so computed), (iii) Class C
Acquiring Fund Shares determined by dividing the Target Value
attributable to the Class C Target Shares by the NAV of a Class C
Acquiring Fund Share (as so computed), and (iv) Class Y Acquiring
Fund Shares determined by dividing the Target Value attributable
to the Class Y Target Shares by the NAV of a Class Y Acquiring
Fund Share (as so computed), and

(b) to assume all of Target's stated liabilities described in
paragraph 1.3 ("Liabilities").

A-1
<PAGE>

Such transactions shall take place at the Closing (as defined in paragraph
3.1).

1.2. The Assets shall include all cash, cash equivalents, securities,
receivables (including interest and dividends receivable), claims and rights
of action, rights to register shares under applicable securities laws, books
and records, deferred and prepaid expenses shown as assets on Target's books,
and other property owned by Target at the Effective Time (as defined in
paragraph 3.1).

1.3. The Liabilities shall include all of Target's liabilities, debts,
obligations, and duties of whatever kind or nature, whether absolute, accrued,
contingent, or otherwise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of
business, and whether or not specifically referred to in this Agreement, but
only to the extent disclosed or provided for in Target Trust's financial
statements referred to in paragraph 4.1.18, or otherwise disclosed in writing
to and accepted by PACE Trust. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Target agrees to
use its best efforts to discharge all its Liabilities before the Effective
Time.

1.4. At or immediately before the Effective Time, Target shall declare and
pay to its shareholders a dividend and/or other distribution in an amount
large enough so that it will have distributed substantially all (and in any
event not less than 90%) of its investment company taxable income (computed
without regard to any deduction for dividends paid) and substantially all of
its realized net capital gain, if any, for its current taxable year through
the Effective Time.

1.5. At the Effective Time (or as soon thereafter as is reasonably
practicable), Target shall distribute the Acquiring Fund Shares received by it
pursuant to paragraph 1.1 to Target's shareholders of record, determined as of
the Effective Time (each a "Shareholder" and collectively "Shareholders"), in
constructive exchange for their Target Shares. Such distribution shall be
accomplished by PACE Trust's transfer agent's opening accounts on Acquiring
Fund's share transfer books in the Shareholders' names and transferring such
Acquiring Fund Shares thereto. Each Shareholder's account shall be credited
with the respective pro rata number of full and fractional (rounded to the
third decimal place) Acquiring Fund Shares due that Shareholder, by class
(i.e., the account for a Shareholder of Class A Target Shares shall be
credited with the respective pro rata number of Class A Acquiring Fund Shares
due that Shareholder; the account for a Shareholder of Class B Target Shares
shall be credited with the respective pro rata number of Class B Acquiring
Fund Shares due that Shareholder; the account for a Shareholder of Class C
Target Shares shall be credited with the respective pro rata number of Class C
Acquiring Fund Shares due that Shareholder; and the account for a Shareholder
of Class Y Target Shares shall be credited with the respective pro rata number
of Class Y Acquiring Fund Shares due that Shareholder). All outstanding Target
Shares, including any represented by certificates, shall simultaneously be
canceled on Target's share transfer books. Acquiring Fund shall not issue
certificates representing the Acquiring Fund Shares issued in connection with
the Reorganization.

1.6. As soon as reasonably practicable after distribution of the Acquiring
Fund Shares pursuant to paragraph 1.5, but in all events within six months
after the Effective Time, Target shall be terminated as a series of Target
Trust and any further actions shall be taken in connection therewith as
required by applicable law.

1.7. Any reporting responsibility of Target to a public authority is and
shall remain its responsibility up to and including the date on which it is
terminated.

1.8. Any transfer taxes payable on issuance of Acquiring Fund Shares in a
name other than that of the registered holder on Target's books of the Target
Shares constructively exchanged therefor shall be paid by the person to whom
such Acquiring Fund Shares are to be issued, as a condition of such transfer.

2. VALUATION

2.1. For purposes of paragraph 1.1(a), Target's net value shall be (a) the
value of the Assets computed as of the close of regular trading on the New
York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") on the date of the Closing ("Valuation Time"),
using the valuation procedures set forth in Acquiring Fund's then-current
prospectus and statement of additional information ("SAI"), less (b) the
amount of the Liabilities as of the Valuation Time.

A-2
<PAGE>

2.2. For purposes of paragraph 1.1(a), the NAV of each class of Acquiring
Fund Shares shall be computed as of the Valuation Time, using the valuation
procedures set forth in Acquiring Fund's then-current prospectus and SAI.

2.3. All computations pursuant to paragraphs 2.1 and 2.2 shall be made by
or under the direction of Mitchell Hutchins.

3. CLOSING AND EFFECTIVE TIME

3.1. The Reorganization, together with related acts necessary to consummate
the same ("Closing"), shall occur at the Funds' principal office on or about
February 9, 2001, or at such other place and/or on such other date as to which
the Investment Companies may agree. All acts taking place at the Closing shall
be deemed to take place simultaneously as of the close of business on the date
thereof or at such other time as to which the Investment Companies may agree

reporting of trading on the NYSE or elsewhere is disrupted, so that accurate
appraisal of the Target Value and the NAV of each class of Acquiring Fund

such reporting shall have been restored.

3.2. Target Trust's fund accounting and pricing agent shall deliver at the
Closing a certificate of an authorized officer verifying that the information
(including adjusted basis and holding period, by lot) concerning the Assets,
including all portfolio securities, transferred by Target to Acquiring Fund,
as reflected on Acquiring Fund's books immediately after the Closing, does or
will conform to such information on Target's books immediately before the
Closing. Target Trust's custodian shall deliver at the Closing a certificate
of an authorized officer stating that the Assets held by the custodian will be
transferred to Acquiring Fund at, or arrangements for the transfer thereof to
Acquiring Fund will have been made on or before, the Effective Time.

3.3. Target Trust shall deliver to PACE Trust at the Closing a list of the
names and addresses of the Shareholders and the number of outstanding Target
Shares (by class) owned by each Shareholder (rounded to the third decimal
place), all as of the Effective Time, certified by Target Trust's Secretary or
an Assistant Secretary thereof. PACE Trust's transfer agent shall deliver at
the Closing a certificate as to the opening on Acquiring Fund's share transfer
books of accounts in the Shareholders' names. PACE Trust shall issue and
deliver a confirmation to Target Trust evidencing the Acquiring Fund Shares to
be credited to Target at the Effective Time or provide evidence satisfactory
to Target Trust that such Acquiring Fund Shares have been credited to Target's
account on Acquiring Fund's books. At the Closing, each Investment Company
shall deliver to the other bills of sale, checks, assignments, stock
certificates, receipts, or other documents the other Investment Company or its
counsel reasonably requests.

3.4. Each Investment Company shall deliver to the other at the Closing a
certificate executed in its name by its President or a Vice President in form
and substance satisfactory to the recipient and dated the Effective Time, to
the effect that the representations and warranties it made in this Agreement

6.5.3. The execution and delivery of this Agreement did not, and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not, materially
violate the Declaration of Trust or Target Trust's By-Laws or any provision
of any agreement (known to K&L, without any independent inquiry or
investigation) to which Target Trust (with respect to Target) is a party or
by which it is bound or (to the knowledge of K&L, without any independent
inquiry or investigation) result in the acceleration of any obligation, or
the imposition of any penalty, under any agreement, judgment, or decree to
which Target Trust (with respect to Target) is a party or by which it is
bound, except as set forth in such opinion or as otherwise disclosed in
writing to and accepted by PACE Trust;

6.5.4. To the knowledge of K&L (without any independent inquiry or
investigation), no consent, approval, authorization, or order of any court

6.5.5. Target Trust is registered with the SEC as an investment company,

investigation of or before any court or governmental body is pending or
threatened as to Target Trust (with respect to Target) or any of its
properties or assets attributable or allocable to Target and (b) Target

provisions of any order, decree, or judgment of any court or governmental
body that materially and adversely affects Target's business, except as set
forth in such opinion or as otherwise disclosed in writing to and accepted
by PACE Trust.

In rendering such opinion, K&L may (1) rely, as to certain factual matters, on
a certificate of Target Trust, (2) make assumptions regarding the
authenticity, genuineness, and/or conformity of documents and copies thereof
without independent verification thereof, (3) limit such opinion to applicable
federal and state law, and (4) define

A-11
<PAGE>

the word "knowledge" and related terms to mean the knowledge of attorneys then
with K&L who have devoted substantive attention to matters directly related to
this Agreement and the Reorganization.

6.6. Each Investment Company shall have received an opinion of K&L,
addressed to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to it, as to
the federal income tax consequences mentioned below ("Tax Opinion"). In
rendering the Tax Opinion, K&L may rely as to factual matters, exclusively and
without independent verification, on the representations made in this
Agreement, which K&L may treat as representations made to it, or in separate
letters addressed to K&L and the certificates delivered pursuant to paragraph
3.4. The Tax Opinion shall be substantially to the effect that, based on the
facts and assumptions stated therein and conditioned on consummation of the
Reorganization in accordance with this Agreement, for federal income tax
purposes:

6.6.1. Acquiring Fund's acquisition of the Assets in exchange solely for
Acquiring Fund Shares and Acquiring Fund's assumption of the Liabilities,
followed by Target's distribution of those shares pro rata to the
Shareholders constructively in exchange for their Target Shares, will
qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of section 368(a)(1) of the
Code, and each Fund will be "a party to a reorganization" within the
meaning of section 368(b) of the Code;

6.6.2. Target will recognize no gain or loss on the transfer of the
Assets to Acquiring Fund in exchange solely for Acquiring Fund Shares and
Acquiring Fund's assumption of the Liabilities or on the subsequent
distribution of those shares to the Shareholders in constructive exchange
for their Target Shares;

6.6.3. Acquiring Fund will recognize no gain or loss on its receipt of
the Assets in exchange solely for Acquiring Fund Shares and its assumption
of the Liabilities;

6.6.4. Acquiring Fund's basis in the Assets will be the same as Target's
basis therein immediately before the Reorganization, and Acquiring Fund's
holding period for the Assets will include Target's holding period
therefor;

6.6.5. A Shareholder will recognize no gain or loss on the constructive
exchange of all its Target Shares solely for Acquiring Fund Shares pursuant
to the Reorganization; and

6.6.6. A Shareholder's aggregate basis in the Acquiring Fund Shares to
be received by it in the Reorganization will be the same as the aggregate
basis in its Target Shares to be constructively surrendered in exchange for
those Acquiring Fund Shares, and its holding period for those Acquiring
Fund Shares will include its holding period for those Target Shares,
provided the Shareholder held them as capital assets at the Effective Time.

Notwithstanding subparagraphs 6.6.2 and 6.6.4, the Tax Opinion may state that
no opinion is expressed as to the effect of the Reorganization on the Funds or
any Shareholder with respect to any Asset as to which any unrealized gain or
loss is required to be recognized for federal income tax purposes at the end
of a taxable year (or on the termination or transfer thereof) under a mark-to-
market system of accounting.

At any time before the Closing, either Investment Company may waive any of
the foregoing conditions (except that set forth in paragraph 6.1) if, in the
judgment of its Board, such waiver will not have a material adverse effect on
its Fund's shareholders' interests.

7. BROKERAGE FEES AND EXPENSES

7.1. Each Investment Company represents and warrants to the other that
there are no brokers or finders entitled to receive any payments in connection
with the transactions provided for herein.

7.2. The Reorganization Expenses will be borne by Mitchell Hutchins.

8. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; NO SURVIVAL

Neither party has made any representation, warranty, or covenant not set
forth herein, and this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the
parties. The representations, warranties, and covenants contained herein or in
any document delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall not
survive the Closing.

9. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT

This Agreement may be terminated at any time at or before the Effective
Time, whether before or after approval by Target's shareholders:

9.1. By either Fund (a) in the event of the other Fund's material breach of
any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein to be performed at
or before the Effective Time, (b) if a condition to its obligations has not
been met and it reasonably appears that such condition will not or cannot be
met, or (c) if the Closing has not occurred on or before July 1, 2001; or

9.2. By the parties' mutual agreement.

In the event of termination under paragraphs 9.1(c) or 9.2, there shall be no
liability for damages on the part of either Fund, or the trustees or officers
of either Investment Company, to the other Fund.

10. AMENDMENT

This Agreement may be amended, modified, or supplemented at any time,
notwithstanding approval thereof by Target's shareholders, in any manner
mutually agreed on in writing by the parties; provided that following such
approval no such amendment shall have a material adverse effect on the
Shareholders' interests.

11. MISCELLANEOUS

11.1. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the internal laws of the State of New York; provided that, in the case of any
conflict between such laws and the federal securities laws, the latter shall
govern.

Agreement is executed by Target Trust on behalf of Target and by its trustees
and/or officers in their capacities as such, and not individually. Target
Trust's obligations under this Agreement are not binding on or enforceable

Trust shall not be personally liable hereunder to PACE Trust or its trustees
or shareholders for any act, omission, or obligation of Target Trust or any
other trustee thereof. PACE Trust agrees that, in asserting any rights or
claims under this Agreement on behalf of Acquiring Fund, it shall look only to
Target's assets and property in settlement of such rights or claims and not to
such trustees, officers, or shareholders.

11.4. A trustee of PACE Trust shall not be personally liable hereunder to
Target Trust or its trustees or shareholders for any act, omission, or
obligation of PACE Trust or any other trustee thereof. Target Trust agrees

A-13
<PAGE>

that, in asserting any claim against PACE Trust or its trustees, it shall look
only to Acquiring Fund's assets for payment under such claim; and neither the
shareholders nor the trustees of PACE Trust, nor any of their agents, whether
past, present, or future, shall be personally liable therefor.

11.5. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of
which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become
effective when one or more counterparts have been executed by each Investment
Company and delivered to the other party hereto. The headings contained in
this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way
the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

ADVISER'S COMMENTS

Over the fiscal year ended July 31, 2000, the Portfolio underperformed the
MSCI EMF Index. This underperformance can be attributed primarily to stock
selection in Asia, particularly in Korean and Taiwanese technology stocks.
Stock selection in Latin America (Argentina) and Europe, Middle East and
Africa (EMEA) (Turkey) also detracted from performance. The Portfolio's
underperformance was offset slightly by overweighted positions in Mexico and
Brazil along with an overweighted position in Malaysia prior to that country's
reinstatement in the MSCI EMF Index.

Recent performance of emerging markets has been driven by perceptions about
the direction of the U.S. economy and U.S. interest rates. Market volatility
in the developed markets--notably in the U.S. NASDAQ Composite Index--also
affected the emerging markets, not because of the high proportion of
technology stocks in emerging markets, but because in times of uncertainty
higher risk assets tend to suffer. As a result, emerging markets
underperformed developed markets during the second quarter of 2000, even
though economic and earnings data continued to improve. Recent emerging market
performance has improved, as U.S. economic data have suggested that the U.S.
economy is slowing and may achieve a soft landing. Falling interest rates and
compelling valuations make Brazil our favorite Latin American market. We have
increased the Portfolio's exposure to Asia through purchases of hardware
stocks in Taiwan and Korea. Within EMEA, the Portfolio is underweighted in
Greece and South Africa.

The short-term direction of the emerging markets will continue to depend on
perceptions about the global economy and investor attitudes toward risk. It is
hard to envision significant outperformance in emerging markets while there
are doubts as to whether or not the U.S. economy will suffer a hard landing.
However, we believe that ongoing structural improvements within emerging
markets will limit any underperformance and provide a platform for renewed
strength once the outlook for the U.S. becomes clearer. Although recent data
have dampened fears of a hard landing for the U.S. economy, sentiment toward
Latin America remains fragile due to the belief that it would be the hardest
hit region in the event of a U.S. economic downturn. The impact of a U.S. hard
landing would affect both direct trades links (mainly impacting Mexico) and
the availability of capital via interest rates (more significant for Brazil).
Given our core scenario for a soft landing, we believe that the capital flows
issue has been exaggerated.
