PACE Money Market Investments
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, STRATEGIES AND RISKS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND OBJECTIVE
Current income consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The fund is a money market mutual fund and seeks to maintain a stable price of
$1.00 per share. The fund invests in a diversified portfolio of high quality
money market instruments of governmental and private issuers.
Money market instruments are short-term debt obligations and similar securities.
They also include longer term bonds that have variable interest rates or other
special features that give them the financial characteristics of short-term
debt. The fund invests in foreign money market instruments only if they are
denominated in U.S. dollars.
Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., the fund's manager and investment
adviser, selects money market instruments for the fund based on its assessment
of relative values and changes in market and economic conditions. Mitchell
Hutchins considers safety of principal and liquidity in selecting securities for
the fund and thus may not buy securities that pay the highest yield.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
An investment in the fund is not a bank deposit and is neither insured nor
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government
agency. While the fund seeks to maintain the value of your investment at $1.00
per share, you may lose money by investing in the fund. Money market instruments
generally have a low risk of loss, but they are not risk-free. The principal
risks presented by the fund are:
- CREDIT RISK -- Issuers of money market instruments may fail to make payments
when due, or they may become less willing or less able to do so.
- INTEREST RATE RISK -- The value of the fund's investments generally will fall
when short term interest rates rise, and its yield will tend to lag behind
prevailing rates.
- FOREIGN INVESTING RISK -- The value of the fund's investments in foreign
securities may fall due to adverse political, social and economic developments
abroad. However, because the fund's foreign investments must be denominated in
U.S. dollars, it generally is not subject to the risk of changes in currency
valuations.
More information about risks of an investment in the fund is provided below in
"More About Risks and Investment Strategies."

EXAMPLE
This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the fund
with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
This example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods
indicated and then sell all of your shares at the end of those periods. The
example includes the maximum annual fee for the PACE Select Advisors Program and
also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the fund's
operating expenses remain the same, except for the two year period when the
fund's expenses are lower due to its reimbursement agreement with Mitchell
Hutchins. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these
assumptions your costs would be:

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, STRATEGIES AND RISKS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND OBJECTIVE
Current income.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The fund invests in U.S. government bonds and other bonds of varying maturities,
but normally limits its portfolio "duration" to between one and seven years.
"Duration" is a measure of the fund's exposure to interest rate risk. A longer
duration means that changes in market interest rates are likely to have a larger
effect on the value of the assets in a portfolio.
The fund invests primarily in mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by
U.S. government agencies and in other U.S. government securities. The fund also
invests, to a lesser extent, in investment grade bonds of private issuers,
including those backed by mortgages or other assets. These privately issued
bonds generally have one of the two highest credit ratings, although the fund
may invest to a limited extent in privately issued bonds with the third highest
credit rating. The fund may invest in when-issued or delayed delivery bonds to
increase its return, giving rise to a form of leverage. The fund may (but is not
required to) use options, futures and other derivatives as part of its
investment strategy or to help manage portfolio risks.
Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., the fund's manager, has selected
Pacific Investment Management Company LLC ("PIMCO") to serve as the fund's
investment adviser. PIMCO establishes duration targets for the fund's portfolio
based on its expectations for changes in interest rates and then positions the
fund to take advantage of yield curve shifts. PIMCO decides to buy or sell
specific bonds based on an analysis of their values relative to other similar
bonds. PIMCO monitors the prepayment experience of the fund's mortgage-backed
bonds and will also buy and sell securities to adjust the fund's average
portfolio duration, yield curve and sector and prepayment exposure, as
appropriate.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
An investment in the fund is not guaranteed; you may lose money by investing in
the fund. The principal risks presented by the fund are:
- INTEREST RATE RISK -- The value of the fund's investments generally will fall
when interest rates rise. Some corporate bonds provide that the issuer may
repay them earlier than the maturity date. When interest rates are falling,
bond issuers may exercise this right more often, and the fund may have to
reinvest these repayments at lower interest rates.
- PREPAYMENT RISK -- The fund's mortgage- and asset-backed securities may be
prepaid more rapidly than expected, especially when interest rates are
falling, and the fund may have to reinvest those prepayments at lower interest
rates. When interest rates are rising, slower prepayments may extend the
duration of the securities and may reduce their value.
- LEVERAGE RISK -- Leverage magnifies the effect of changes in market values.
While leverage can increase the fund's income and potential for gain, it also
can increase expenses and the risk of loss. The fund attempts to limit the
magnifying effect of its leverage by managing its portfolio duration.
- CREDIT RISK -- Bond issuers may fail to make payments when due, or they may
become less willing or less able to do so.
- DERIVATIVES RISK -- The fund's investments in derivatives may rise or fall
more rapidly than other investments.

"More About Risks and Investment Strategies."

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, STRATEGIES AND RISKS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND OBJECTIVE
Current income, consistent with reasonable stability of principal.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The fund invests in bonds of varying maturities, but normally limits its overall
portfolio "duration" to between two and four and one-half years. "Duration" is a
measure of the fund's exposure to interest rate risk. A longer duration means
that changes in market interest rates are likely to have a larger effect on the
value of the assets in a portfolio.
The fund invests primarily in U.S. and foreign government bonds, U.S. and
foreign corporate bonds and bonds that are backed by mortgages or other assets.
The fund limits its investments to investment grade bonds. The fund also may
invest in preferred stocks.
The fund's investments in securities of foreign issuers may include, to a
limited extent, securities that are denominated in foreign currencies of
developed countries. The fund may (but is not required to) use forward currency
contracts, options, futures and other derivatives as part of its investment
strategy or to help manage portfolio risks.
Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., the fund's manager, has selected
Metropolitan West Asset Management, LLC ("MWAM") to serve as the fund's
investment adviser. MWAM decides to buy specific bonds for the fund based on its
value added strategies, with the goal of outperforming the Lehman Brothers
Intermediate Government Credit Index while maintaining below average volatility.
These strategies are anchored by MWAM's long-term economic outlook and include
managing interest rate risk through limited duration shifts, yield curve
management, diversifying the fund's investments across all permitted investment
sectors while overweighting the most attractive sectors, identifying undervalued
securities and aggressive execution. MWAM generally sells securities that no
longer meet these selection criteria or when it identifies more attractive
investment opportunities and may also sell securities to adjust the average
duration of the fund's portfolio.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
An investment in the fund is not guaranteed; you may lose money by investing in
the fund. The principal risks presented by the fund are:
- INTEREST RATE RISK -- The value of the fund's investments generally will fall
when interest rates rise. Some corporate bonds provide that the issuer may
repay them earlier than the maturity date. When interest rates are falling,
bond issuers may exercise this right more often, and the fund may have to
reinvest these repayments at lower interest rates.
- CREDIT RISK -- Bond issuers may fail to make payments when due, or they may
become less willing or less able to do so.
- PREPAYMENT RISK -- The fund's mortgage- and asset-backed securities may be
prepaid more rapidly than expected, especially when interest rates are
falling, and the fund may have to reinvest those prepayments at lower interest
rates. When interest rates are rising, slower prepayments may extend the
duration of the securities and may reduce their value.
- SINGLE ISSUER CONCENTRATION RISK -- Because the fund is non-diversified, it
can invest more of its assets in a single issuer than a diversified fund can.
As a result, changes in the market value of a single issuer can have a greater
effect on the fund's performance and share price than it would for a more
diversified fund.
- FOREIGN INVESTING RISK -- The value of the fund's investments in foreign
securities may fall due to adverse political, social and economic developments
abroad and due to decreases in foreign currency values relative to the U.S.
dollar.
- DERIVATIVES RISK -- The fund's investments in derivatives may rise or fall
more rapidly than other investments.

FUND OBJECTIVE
Total return consisting of income and capital appreciation.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The fund invests in bonds of varying maturities, but normally limits its
portfolio "duration" to between three and eight years. "Duration" is a measure
of the fund's exposure to interest rate risk. A longer duration means that
changes in market interest rates are likely to have a larger effect on the value
of the assets in a portfolio.
The fund invests primarily in investment grade bonds of governmental and private
issuers in the United States and foreign countries, including bonds that are
backed by mortgages or other assets, and in bonds that are convertible into
common stock. The fund's investments in securities of foreign issuers may
include, to a limited extent, securities that are denominated in foreign
currencies.
The fund also invests, to a limited extent, in bonds that are below investment
grade. Securities rated below investment grade are commonly known as "junk
bonds." The fund may invest in when-issued or delayed delivery bonds to increase
its return, giving rise to a form of leverage. The fund may (but is not required
to) use forward currency contracts, options, futures and other derivatives as
part of its investment strategy or to help manage portfolio risks.
Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., the fund's manager, has selected
Pacific Investment Management Company LLC ("PIMCO") to serve as the fund's
investment adviser. PIMCO seeks to invest the fund's assets in those areas of
the bond market that it considers undervalued, based on such factors as quality,
sector, coupon and maturity. PIMCO establishes duration targets for the fund's
portfolio based on its expectations for changes in interest rates and then
positions the fund to take advantage of yield curve shifts. PIMCO decides to buy
or sell specific bonds based on an analysis of their values relative to other
similar bonds. PIMCO monitors the prepayment experience of the fund's
mortgage-backed bonds and will also buy and sell securities to adjust the fund's
average portfolio duration, yield curve, sector and prepayment exposure, as
appropriate.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
An investment in the fund is not guaranteed; you may lose money by investing in
the fund. The principal risks presented by the fund are:
- INTEREST RATE RISK -- The value of the fund's investments generally will fall
when interest rates rise. Some corporate bonds provide that the issuer may
repay them earlier than the maturity date. When interest rates are falling,
bond issuers may exercise this right more often, and the fund may have to
reinvest these repayments at lower interest rates.
- PREPAYMENT RISK -- The fund's mortgage- and asset-backed securities may be
prepaid more rapidly than expected, especially when interest rates are
falling, and the fund may have to reinvest those prepayments at lower interest
rates. When interest rates are rising, slower prepayments may extend the
duration of the securities and may reduce their value.
- CREDIT RISK -- Bond issuers may fail to make payments when due, or they may
become less willing or less able to do so. This risk is greater for lower
quality bonds than for bonds that are investment grade
- FOREIGN INVESTING RISK -- The value of the fund's investments in foreign
securities may fall due to adverse political, social and economic developments
abroad and due to decreases in foreign currency values relative to the U.S.
dollar. Investments in foreign government bonds involve special risks because
the fund may have limited legal recourse in the event of default.
- LEVERAGE RISK -- Leverage magnifies the effect of changes in market values.
While leverage can increase the fund's income and potential for gain, it also
can increase expenses and the risk of loss. The fund attempts to limit the
magnifying effect of its leverage by managing its portfolio duration.
- DERIVATIVES RISK -- The fund's investments in derivatives may rise or fall
more rapidly than other investments.

with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
This example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods
indicated and then sell all of your shares at the end of those periods. The
example includes the maximum annual fee for the PACE Select Advisors Program and
also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the fund's
operating expenses remain the same, except for the two year period when the
fund's expenses are lower due to its agreement with Mitchell Hutchins. Although
your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs

PaineWebber PACE Municipal Fixed Income Investments
PACE Municipal Fixed Income Investments
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, STRATEGIES AND RISKS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND OBJECTIVE
High current income exempt from federal income tax.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The fund invests substantially all of its assets in investment grade municipal
bonds of varying maturities. These are bonds and similar securities that are
exempt from federal income tax. Normally, the fund limits its investments in
municipal bonds that are subject to the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT) so
that not more than 25% of its interest income will be subject to the AMT. The
fund invests in municipal bonds that are subject to the AMT when its investment
adviser believes that they offer attractive yields relative to municipal bonds
that have similar investment characteristics but are not subject to the AMT.
The fund normally limits its portfolio "duration" to between three and seven
years. "Duration" is a measure of the fund's exposure to interest rate risk. A
longer duration means that changes in market interest rates are likely to have a
larger effect on the value of the assets in a portfolio. The fund may invest up
to 50% of its total assets in municipal bonds that are secured by revenues from
public housing authorities and state and local housing finance authorities,
including bonds that are secured or backed by the U.S. Treasury or other U.S.
government guaranteed securities.
The fund limits its investments in municipal bonds with the lowest investment
grade rating to 15% of its total assets at the time the bonds are purchased. The
fund may (but is not required to) use options, futures and other derivatives as
part of its investment strategy or to help manage its portfolio duration.
Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., the fund's manager, has selected
Standish, Ayer & Wood, Inc. ("Standish") to serve as the fund's investment
adviser. In deciding which securities to buy for the fund, Standish seeks to
identify undervalued sectors or geographical regions of the municipal market or
undervalued individual securities. To do this, Standish uses credit research and
valuation analysis and monitors the relationship of the municipal yield curve to
the treasury yield curve. Standish also uses credit quality assessments from its
in-house analysts to identify potential rating changes, undervalued issues and
macro trends with regard to market sectors and geographical regions. Standish
may make modest duration adjustments based on economic analyses and interest
rate forecasts. Standish generally sells securities if it identifies more
attractive investment opportunities within its investment criteria and doing so
may improve the fund's return. Standish also may sell securities with weakening
credit profiles or to adjust the average duration of the fund's portfolio.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
An investment in the fund is not guaranteed; you may lose money by investing in
the fund. The principal risks presented by the fund are:
- INTEREST RATE RISK -- The value of the fund's investments generally will fall
when interest rates rise. Some municipal bonds provide that the issuer may
repay them earlier than the maturity date. When interest rates are falling,
bond issuers may exercise this right more often, and the fund may have to
reinvest these repayments at lower interest rates.
- CREDIT RISK -- Bond issuers may fail to make payments when due, or they may
become less willing or less able to do so.
- POLITICAL RISK -- The fund's investments may be significantly affected by
political changes, including legislative proposals which may make municipal
bonds less attractive in comparison to taxable bonds.
- RELATED SECURITIES CONCENTRATION RISK -- Because the fund may invest more than
25% of its total assets in municipal bonds that are issued to finance similar
projects, changes that affect one type of municipal bond may have a
significant impact on the value of the fund.
- DERIVATIVES RISK -- The fund's investments in derivatives may rise or fall
more rapidly than other investments.

"More About Risks and Investment Strategies."

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, STRATEGIES AND RISKS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND OBJECTIVE
High total return.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The fund invests primarily in high-grade bonds of governmental and private
issuers in the United States and developed foreign countries. These high-grade
bonds are rated in one of the three highest rating categories or are of
comparable quality. The fund invests, to a limited extent, in lower rated bonds
of governmental and private issuers in emerging markets, including bonds that
are rated below investment grade.
The fund invests in bonds of varying maturities, but normally limits its
portfolio "duration" to between four and eight years. "Duration" is a measure of
the fund's exposure to interest rate risk. A longer duration means that changes
in market interest rates are likely to have a larger effect on the value of the
assets in a portfolio.
A portion of the fund's assets normally is invested in bonds of U.S. government
and private issuers. The balance of the fund's assets is allocated among bonds
of governmental and private issuers in various foreign countries. The fund's
investments may include mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. The fund
may (but is not required to) use forward currency contracts, options, futures
and other derivatives as part of its investment strategy or to help manage
portfolio risks.
Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., the fund's manager, has selected Rogge
Global Partners plc and Fischer Francis Trees & Watts, Inc. and its affiliates
("FFTW") to serve as the fund's investment advisers. Mitchell Hutchins allocates
the fund's assets between two investment advisers and may change the allocation
at any time. The relative values of each investment adviser's share of the
fund's assets also may change over time.
Rogge Global Partners seeks to invest the fund assets it manages in bonds of
issuers in financially healthy countries because it believes that these
investments produce the highest bond and currency returns over time. In deciding
which bonds to buy for the fund, Rogge Global Partners uses a top-down analysis
to find value across countries and to forecast interest and currency-exchange
rates over a one-year horizon. Rogge Global Partners also uses an optimization
model to help determine country, currency and duration positions for the fund.
Rogge Global Partners generally sells securities that no longer meet these
selection criteria or when it identifies more attractive investment
opportunities and may also sell securities to adjust the average duration of the
fund assets it manages.
FFTW seeks to outperform a benchmark, the Lehman Global Aggregate Index
(Unhedged), for its share of the fund's assets through an active bond selection
process that relies on (1) construction of diversified portfolios,
(2) identifying the most attractive sectors and the most attractive individual
securities within those sectors and (3) monitoring portfolio risk with risk
management tools. FFTW divides the investment universe into three major blocs
(Europe, the United States, and Japan) and analyzes in each bloc trends in
economic growth, inflation, monetary and fiscal policies. FFTW decides which
securities to buy for the fund by looking for investment opportunities where its
opinions on the current economic environment of a bloc or country differ from
those it judges to be reflected in current market valuations. FFTW generally
sells securities when it has identified more attractive investment
opportunities.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
An investment in the fund is not guaranteed; you may lose money by investing in
the fund. The principal risks presented by the fund are:
- INTEREST RATE RISK -- The value of the fund's investments generally will fall
when interest rates rise. Some corporate bonds provide that the issuer may
repay them earlier than the maturity date. When interest rates are falling,
bond issuers may exercise this right more often, and the fund may have to
reinvest these repayments at lower interest rates.
- FOREIGN INVESTING AND EMERGING MARKETS RISKS -- The value of the fund's
investments in foreign securities may fall due to adverse political, social
and economic developments abroad and due to decreases in foreign currency
values relative to the U.S. dollar. These risks are greater for investments in
emerging market issuers.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prospectus Page 19
<PAGE>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------
PaineWebber PACE Global Fixed Income Investments
Investments in foreign government bonds involve special risks because the fund
may have limited legal recourse in the event of default.
- CREDIT RISK -- Bond issuers may fail to make payments when due, or they may
become less willing or less able to do so. This risk is greater for lower
quality bonds than for bonds that are investment grade.
- SINGLE ISSUER CONCENTRATION RISK -- Because the fund is non-diversified, it
can invest more of its assets in a single issuer than a diversified fund can.
As a result, changes in the market value of a single issuer can have a greater
effect on the fund's performance and share price than it would for a more
diversified fund.
- PREPAYMENT RISK -- The fund's mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities may
be prepaid more rapidly than expected, especially when interest rates are
falling, and the fund may have to reinvest those prepayments at lower interest
rates. When interest rates are rising, slower prepayments may extend the
duration of the securities and may reduce their value.
- DERIVATIVES RISK -- The fund's investments in derivatives may rise or fall
more rapidly than other investments.

"More About Risks and Investment Strategies."

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, STRATEGIES AND RISKS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND OBJECTIVES
Capital appreciation and dividend income.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The fund invests primarily in stocks of U.S. companies that are believed to be
undervalued and that have total market capitalizations of $4.0 billion or
greater at the time of purchase. The fund seeks income primarily from dividend
paying stocks.
The fund may invest, to a limited extent, in other securities, including stocks
of companies with smaller total market capitalizations and convertible bonds
that are rated below investment grade. The fund may invest up to 10% of its
total assets in U.S. dollar denominated foreign securities. The fund also may
(but is not required to) use options, futures and other derivatives as part of
its investment strategy or to help manage portfolio risks.
The fund's manager, Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., has selected
Institutional Capital Corporation ("ICAP"), Westwood Management Corporation
("Westwood") and State Street Global Advisors ("SSgA") to serve as the fund's
investment advisers. Mitchell Hutchins allocates the fund's assets among the
three investment advisers and has initially allocated approximately 50% of the
fund's assets to SSgA and approximately 25% each to ICAP and Westwood. Mitchell
Hutchins may change this allocation at any time. The relative value of each
investment adviser's share of the fund's assets also may change over time.
In managing its share of the fund's assets, ICAP uses its proprietary valuation
model to identify large-capitalization companies that ICAP believes offer the
best relative values because they sell below the price-to-earnings ratio
warranted by their prospects. ICAP looks for companies where a catalyst for a
positive change is about to occur with potential to produce stock appreciation
of 20% or more relative to the market over a 12 to 18 month period. The catalyst
can be thematic (E.G., global economic recovery) or company specific (E.G., a
corporate restructuring or a new product). ICAP also uses internally generated
research to evaluate the financial condition and business prospects of every
company it considers. ICAP monitors each stock purchased and sells the stock
when its target price is achieved, the catalyst becomes inoperative or ICAP
identifies another stock with greater opportunity for appreciation.
In managing its share of the fund's assets, Westwood maintains a list of
securities that it believes have proven records and potential for above-average
earnings growth. It considers purchasing a security on such list if Westwood's
forecast for growth rates and earnings estimates exceeds Wall Street
expectations, or Westwood's forecasted price/earnings ratio is less than the
forecasted growth rate. Westwood monitors the issuing companies and will sell a
stock if Westwood expects limited future price appreciation or the projected
price/earnings ratio exceeds the three-year growth rate.
In managing its share of the fund's assets, SSgA seeks to outperform the Russell
1000 Value Index (before fees and expenses). SSgA uses several independent
valuation measures to identify investment opportunities within a large cap value
universe and combines factors to produce an overall rank. Comprehensive research
determines the optimal weighting of these perspectives to arrive at strategies
that vary by industry. SSgA ranks all companies within the investable universe
initially from top to bottom based on their relative attractiveness. SSgA
constructs the fund's portfolio by selecting the highest-ranked stocks from the
universe and manages deviations from the benchmark to maximize the risk/reward
trade-off. The resulting portfolio has characteristics similar to the Russell
1000 Value Index. SSgA generally sells stocks that no longer meet its selection
criteria or that it believes otherwise may adversely affect the fund's
performance relative to that of the index.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
An investment in the fund is not guaranteed; you may lose money by investing in
the fund. The principal risks presented by the fund are:
- EQUITY RISK -- Stocks and other equity securities generally fluctuate in value
more than bonds. The fund could lose all of its investment in a company's
stock.
- INDEX STRATEGY RISK -- SSgA's proprietary strategy may not result in
outperformance of the designated index and may even result in
underperformance.
- DERIVATIVES RISK -- The fund's investments in derivatives may rise or fall
more rapidly than other investments.

"More About Risks and Investment Strategies."

EXAMPLE
This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the fund
with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
This example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods
indicated and then sell all of your shares at the end of those periods. The
example includes the maximum annual fee for the PACE Select Advisors Program and
also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the fund's
operating expenses remain the same, except for the two-year period when the
fund's expenses are lower due to its agreement with Mitchell Hutchins. Although
your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs
would be:

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, STRATEGIES AND RISKS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND OBJECTIVE
Capital appreciation.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The fund invests primarily in stocks of companies that are believed to have
substantial potential for capital growth and that have total market
capitalizations of $4.0 billion or greater at the time of purchase. Dividend
income is an incidental consideration in the investment advisers' selection of
stocks for the fund.
The fund may invest, to a limited extent, in other securities, including
securities convertible into stocks and stocks of companies with smaller total
market capitalizations. The fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in
U.S. dollar denominated foreign securities. The fund also may (but is not
required to) use options, futures and other derivatives as part of its
investment strategy or to help manage portfolio risks.
The fund's manager, Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc. has selected
Alliance Capital Management L.P. ("Alliance Capital") and State Street Global
Advisors ("SSgA") to serve as the fund's investment advisers. Mitchell Hutchins
allocates the fund's assets between the two investment advisers and has
initially allocated approximately 60% of the fund's assets to Alliance Capital
and approximately 40% to SSgA. Mitchell Hutchins may change this allocation at
any time. The relative values of each investment adviser's share of the fund's
assets also may change over time.
In managing its share of the fund's assets, Alliance Capital follows its
"disciplined growth" strategy in seeking to identify the best combinations of
earnings growth and reasonable valuation in selecting stocks for the fund.
Alliance Capital ranks each stock in its investment universe based on its
analysts' assessments and fundamental research that includes six measures of
earnings growth and valuation. The fund normally invests in stocks that rank in
the top 30% of this research universe and generally sells stocks that rank in
the bottom half.
In managing its share of the fund's assets, SSgA seeks to outperform the Russell
1000 Growth Index (before fees and expenses). SSgA uses several independent
valuation measures to identify investment opportunities within a large cap
growth universe and combines factors to produce an overall rank. Comprehensive
research determines the optimal weighting of these perspectives to arrive at
strategies that vary by industry. SSgA ranks all companies within the investable
universe from top to bottom based on their relative attractiveness. SSgA
constructs the fund's portfolio by selecting the highest-ranked stocks from the
universe and manages deviations from the benchmark to maximize the risk/reward
trade-off. The resulting portfolio has characteristics similar to the Russell
1000 Growth Index. SSgA generally sells stocks that no longer meet its selection
criteria or that it believes otherwise may adversely affect the fund's
performance relative to that of the index.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
An investment in the fund is not guaranteed; you may lose money by investing in
the fund. The principal risks presented by the fund are:
- EQUITY RISK -- Stocks and other equity securities generally fluctuate in value
more than bonds. The fund could lose all of its investment in a company's
stock.
- INDEX STRATEGY RISK -- SSgA's proprietary strategy may not result in
outperformance of the designated index and may even result in
underperformance.
- TECHNOLOGY SECTOR RISK -- The fund may invest a significant portion of its
assets in the stocks of companies in the technology sector. As a result, the
fund is more susceptible to the risks that are associated with that sector
than a fund with a broader range of investments, and the fund's performance
will be adversely affected by unfavorable developments in the technology
sector.
- DERIVATIVES RISK -- The fund's investments in derivatives may rise or fall
more rapidly than other investments.
More information about risks of an investment in the fund is provided below in
"More About Risks and Investment Strategies."

RISK/RETURN BAR CHART AND TABLE
The following bar chart and table provide information about the fund's
performance and thus give some indication of the risks of an investment in the
fund.
The bar chart shows how the fund's performance has varied from year to year. The
bar chart does not reflect the maximum annual PACE Select Advisors Program fee;
if it did, the total returns shown would be lower.
The table that follows the bar chart shows the average annual returns for the
1999 calendar year and for the life of the fund and does reflect the maximum
annual PACE Select Advisors Program fee. The table compares fund returns to
returns on a broad-based market index that is unmanaged and that, therefore,
does not include any fees or expenses.
The fund's past performance does not necessarily indicate how the fund will
perform in the future. Prior to November 10, 1997, another investment adviser
was responsible for managing all the fund's assets. Alliance Capital assumed
day-to-day management of the fund's assets on November 10, 1997 and SSgA assumed
day-to-day management of a portion of the fund's assets on October 10, 2000. See
Appendix A for information about the historical performance of accounts managed
by SSgA with substantially similar investment objectives, policies and
strategies to those of the fund.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, STRATEGIES AND RISKS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND OBJECTIVE
Capital appreciation.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The fund invests primarily in stocks of companies that are believed to be
undervalued or overlooked in the marketplace and that have total market
capitalizations of less than $4.0 billion at the time of purchase. These stocks
also generally have price-to-earnings (P/E) ratios below the market average. The
fund invests only in stocks that are traded on major exchanges or the over-
the-counter market.
The fund may invest, to a limited extent, in stocks of companies with larger
total market capitalizations and other securities, including securities
convertible into stocks. The fund also may (but is not required to) use options,
futures and other derivatives as part of its investment strategy or to help
manage portfolio risks.
Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., the fund's manager, has selected Ariel
Capital Management, Inc. ("Ariel") and ICM Asset Management, Inc. ("ICM") to
serve as the fund's investment advisers. Mitchell Hutchins allocates the fund's
assets between the two investment advisers and may change the allocation at any
time. The relative values of each investment adviser's share of the fund's
assets also may change over time.
In managing its share of the fund's assets, Ariel invests in stocks of companies
that it believes are misunderstood or undervalued. It seeks to identify
companies in consistent industries with distinct market niches and excellent
management teams. It focuses on value stocks, which it defines as stocks that
have a low P/E ratio based on forward earnings and that trade at a significant
discount to the private market value that Ariel calculates for each stock. Ariel
generally sells stocks that cease to meet these criteria or that are at risk for
fundamental deterioration.
In managing its share of the fund's assets, ICM invests primarily in common
stocks of companies believed to offer good relative value that have either
fallen into disfavor among investors or are under-researched. In deciding which
stocks to buy for the fund, ICM uses a top-down analysis to identify broad
sectors of the market believed to offer good relative value and then seeks to
identify individual companies within those sectors that meet ICM's investment
criteria. ICM also performs a bottom-up analysis to attempt to discover
inefficiently priced stocks in a broad range of sectors, including those not
identified in the top-down analysis. These two approaches are combined in
various proportions depending on market conditions. Regardless of which approach
is used to identify stock candidates, ICM also applies fundamental research
analysis. ICM generally sells stocks that meet price objectives, no longer meet
its selection criteria, are at risk for fundamental deterioration or when it
identifies more attractive investment opportunities.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
An investment in the fund is not guaranteed; you may lose money by investing in
the fund. The principal risks presented by the fund are:
- EQUITY RISK -- Stocks and other equity securities generally fluctuate in value
more than bonds. The fund could lose all of its investment in a company's
stock.
- LIMITED CAPITALIZATION RISK -- Equity risk is greater for the common stocks of
mid and small cap companies because they generally are more vulnerable than
larger companies to adverse business or economic developments and they may
have more limited resources. In general, these risks are greater for small cap
companies than for mid cap companies.
- DERIVATIVES RISK -- The fund's investments in derivatives may rise or fall
more rapidly than other investments.

"More About Risks and Investment Strategies."

The bar chart shows how the fund's performance has varied from year to year. The

The fund's past performance does not necessarily indicate how the fund will
perform in the future. This may be particularly true for the period prior to
October 4, 1999, when another investment adviser was responsible for managing
all the fund's assets. Ariel assumed day-to-day management of a portion of the
fund's assets on October 4, 1999 and ICM assumed responsibility for managing a
portion of the fund's assets on October 10, 2000. See Appendix A for information
about the performance of a mutual fund and accounts managed by Ariel and the

FUND OBJECTIVE
Capital appreciation.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The fund invests primarily in stocks of "emerging growth" companies that are
believed to have potential for high future earnings growth relative to the
overall market and that have total market capitalizations of less than $4.0
billion at the time of purchase. Dividend income is an incidental consideration
in the investment adviser's selection of stocks for the fund.
The fund may invest, to a limited extent, in stocks of companies with larger
total market capitalizations and other securities, including securities
convertible into stocks. The fund also may (but is not required to) use options,
futures and other derivatives as part of its investment strategy or to help
manage portfolio risks.
Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., the fund's manager, has selected
Delaware Management Company to serve as the fund's investment adviser. In
deciding which stocks to buy for the fund, Delaware Management Company employs a
bottom-up, fundamental analysis to identify companies that have substantially
above average earnings growth because of management changes, new products,
growth of established products or structural changes in the economy. Delaware
Management Company also considers the quality of a company's management team and
the strength of its finances and internal controls in selecting stocks for the
fund. Although Delaware Management Company follows companies in a full range of
market sectors, it may focus on a limited number of attractive industries.
Delaware Management Company generally sells stocks that no longer meet its
selection criteria, are at risk for fundamental deterioration or when it
identifies more attractive investment opportunities.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
An investment in the fund is not guaranteed; you may lose money by investing in
the fund. The principal risks presented by the fund are:
- EQUITY RISK -- Stocks and other equity securities generally fluctuate in value

fund is more susceptible to the risks that are associated with that sector
than a fund with a broader range of investments, and the fund's performance
may be adversely affected by unfavorable developments in the technology

FUND OBJECTIVE
Capital appreciation.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The fund invests primarily in stocks of companies that are domiciled in
developed foreign countries and principally traded in Japanese, European,
Pacific and Australian securities markets or traded in U.S. securities markets.
The fund may invest, to a limited extent, in stocks of companies in emerging
markets, including Asia, Latin America and other regions where markets may not
yet fully reflect the potential of the developing economy. The fund may also
invest, to a limited extent, in securities of other investment companies that
invest in foreign markets and securities convertible into stocks, including
convertible bonds that are below investment grade. The fund may (but is not
required to) use forward currency contracts, options, futures and other
derivatives as part of its investment strategy or to help manage portfolio
risks.
Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., the fund's manager, has selected Martin
Currie Inc. to serve as the fund's investment adviser. Martin Currie Inc. looks
for companies that exhibit strong fundamentals and attractive valuations based
on estimates of future earnings. In making country allocation decisions, Martin
Currie Inc. considers such factors as economic and political stability, breadth
and liquidity of the market, the nature of local investors, the currency
outlook, valuation and the settlement system. Martin Currie Inc. generally sells
securities when either the country or the issuer no longer meets these selection
criteria or when it identifies more attractive investment opportunities.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
An investment in the fund is not guaranteed; you may lose money by investing in
the fund. The principal risks presented by the fund are:
- EQUITY RISK -- Stocks and other equity securities generally fluctuate in value
more than bonds. The fund could lose all of its investment in a company's
stock.
- FOREIGN INVESTING AND EMERGING MARKETS RISKS -- The value of the fund's
investments in foreign securities may fall due to adverse political, social
and economic developments abroad and due to decreases in foreign currency
values relative to the U.S. dollar. These risks are greater for investments in
emerging market issuers than for issuers in more developed countries.
- DERIVATIVES RISK -- The fund's investments in derivatives may rise or fall
more rapidly than other investments.

PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, STRATEGIES AND RISK
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND OBJECTIVE
Capital appreciation.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The fund invests primarily in stocks of companies domiciled in emerging market
countries. The fund generally defines emerging market countries as countries
that are not included in the MSCI World Index of major world economies. However,
countries included in this index may be considered emerging markets based on
current political and economic factors. For example, the fund's investment
adviser 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 the Fund's eligible investments. The
fund may not always diversify its investments on a geographic basis among
emerging market countries.
The fund may invest, to a limited extent, in bonds, including up to 10% of its
total assets in bonds that are below investment grade. Below investment grade
securities are commonly known as "junk bonds." The fund may also invest, to a
limited extent, in securities of other investment companies that invest in
emerging markets. The fund may (but is not required to) use forward currency
contracts, options, futures and other derivatives as part of its investment
strategy or to help manage portfolio risks.
Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., the fund's manager, has selected
Schroder Investment Management North America Inc. ("SIMNA") to serve as the
fund's investment adviser. SIMNA focuses on companies that it believes have a
sustainable competitive advantage and growth potential that is undervalued by
other investors. SIMNA allocates the fund's assets among emerging market
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 for the 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.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
An investment in the fund is not guaranteed; you may lose money by investing in
the fund. The principal risks presented by the fund are:
- EQUITY RISK -- Stocks and other equity securities generally fluctuate in value
more than bonds. The fund could lose all of its investment in a company's
stock.
- FOREIGN INVESTING AND EMERGING MARKETS RISKS -- The value of the fund's
investments in foreign securities may fall due to adverse political, social
and economic developments abroad and due to decreases in foreign currency
values relative to the U.S. dollar. These risks are greater for investments in
emerging market issuers.
- GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION RISK -- To the extent the fund invests a significant
portion of its assets in one geographic area, it will be more susceptible to
factors adversely affecting that area.
- DERIVATIVES RISK -- The fund's investments in derivatives may rise or fall
more rapidly than other investments.
More information about risks of an investment in the fund is provided below in
"More About Risks and Investment Strategies."

MORE ABOUT RISKS AND INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PRINCIPAL RISKS
The main risks of investing in the funds are described below. Not all of these
risks apply to each fund. You can find a list of the main risks that apply to a
particular fund by looking under the "Investment Objective, Strategies and
Risks" heading for that fund.
Other risks of investing in a fund, along with further details about some of the
risks described below, are discussed in the funds' Statement of Additional
Information ("SAI"). Information on how you can obtain the SAI is on the back
cover of this prospectus.
CREDIT RISK. Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of a bond will not make
principal or interest payments when they are due. Even if an issuer does not
default on a payment, a bond's value may decline if the market believes that the
issuer has become less able, or less willing, to make payments on time. Even
high quality bonds are subject to some credit risk. However, credit risk is
greater for lower quality bonds. Bonds that are not investment grade involve
high credit risk and are considered speculative. Some of these low quality bonds
may be in default when purchased by a fund. Low quality bonds may fluctuate in
value more than higher quality bonds and, during periods of market volatility,
may be more difficult to sell at the time and price a fund desires.
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 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 values of the derivatives or the assets
underlying them. Also, if a fund uses derivatives to adjust or "hedge" the
overall risk of its portfolio, the hedge may not succeed if changes in the
values of the derivatives are not matched by opposite changes in the values of
the assets being hedged.
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. Investments in foreign government bonds involve special risks
because the investors may have limited legal recourse in the event of default.
Political conditions, especially a country's willingness to meet the terms of
its debt obligations, can be of considerable significance.
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 CONCENTRATION RISK. PACE International Emerging Markets Equity
Investments 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.
INDEX STRATEGY RISK. Performance of the portions of PACE Large Company Value
Equity Investments and
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prospectus Page 41
<PAGE>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------
PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust
PACE Large Company Growth Equity Investments managed by SSgA may deviate from
that of an index because of shareholder purchases and sales of shares, which can
occur daily, and because of fees and expenses borne by a fund.
INTEREST RATE RISK. The value of bonds generally can be expected to fall when
interest rates rise and to rise when interest rates fall. Interest rate risk is
the risk that interest rates will rise, so that the value of a fund's
investments in bonds will fall. Interest rate risk is the primary source of risk
for U.S. government and usually for other very high quality bonds. The impact of
changes in the general level of interest rates on lower quality bonds may be
greater or less than the impact on higher quality bonds.
Some corporate and municipal bonds, particularly those issued at relatively high
interest rates, provide that the issuer may repay them earlier than the maturity
date. The issuers of these bonds are most likely to exercise these "call"
provisions if prevailing interest rates are lower than they were when the bonds
were issued. A fund then may have to reinvest the repayments at lower interest
rates. Bonds subject to call provisions also may not benefit fully from the rise
in value that generally occurs for bonds when interest rates fall.
LEVERAGE RISK. Leverage involves increasing the total assets in which a fund
can invest beyond the level of its net assets. Because leverage increases the
amount of a fund's assets, it can magnify the effect on the fund of changes in
market values. As a result, while leverage can increase a fund's income and
potential for gain, it also can increase expenses and the risk of loss. PACE
Government Securities Fixed Income Investments and PACE Strategic Fixed Income
Investments, which use leverage by investing in when-issued and delayed delivery
bonds, attempt to limit the potential magnifying effect of the leverage by
managing their portfolio duration.
LIMITED CAPITALIZATION RISK. Securities of mid and small capitalization
companies generally involve greater risk than securities of larger
capitalization companies because they may be more vulnerable to adverse business
or economic developments. Mid and small capitalization companies also may have
limited product lines, markets or financial resources, and they may be dependent
on a relatively small management group. Securities of mid and small cap
companies may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of larger
capitalization companies or the market averages in general. In addition, small
cap companies may not be well known to the investing public, may not have
institutional ownership and may have only cyclical, static or moderate growth
prospects. In general, all of these risks are greater for small cap companies
than for mid cap companies.
POLITICAL RISK. The municipal bond market can be significantly affected by
political changes, including legislation or proposals at either the state or the
federal level to eliminate or limit the tax-exempt status of municipal bond
interest or the tax-exempt status of a municipal bond fund's dividends.
Similarly, reductions in tax rates may make municipal bonds less attractive in
comparison to taxable bonds. Legislatures also may fail to appropriate funds
needed to pay municipal bond obligations. These events could cause the value of
the municipal bonds held by PACE Municipal Fixed Income Investments to fall and
might adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the fund's investments or of the
dividends that the fund pays. During periods of uncertainty, the prices of
municipal securities can become volatile.
PREPAYMENT RISK. Payments on bonds that are backed by mortgage loans or similar
assets may be received earlier or later than expected due to changes in the rate
at which the underlying loans are prepaid. Faster prepayments often happen when
market interest rates are falling. As a result, a fund may need to reinvest
these early payments at those lower interest rates, thus reducing its income.
Conversely, when interest rates rise, prepayments may happen more slowly,
causing the underlying loans to be outstanding for a longer time than
anticipated. This can cause the market value of the security to fall because the
market may view its interest rate as too low for a longer term investment.
RELATED SECURITIES CONCENTRATION RISK. PACE Municipal Fixed Income Investments
may invest more than 25% of its total assets in municipal bonds that are issued
by public housing authorities and state and local housing finance authorities.
Economic, business or political developments or changes that affect one
municipal bond in this sector also may affect other municipal bonds in the same
sector. As a result, the fund is subject to greater risk than a fund that does
not follow this practice.
SINGLE ISSUER CONCENTRATION RISK. PACE Intermediate Fixed Income Investments
and PACE Global Fixed Income Investments are non-diversified. A non-diversified
fund may invest more than 5% of its total assets in securities of a single
issuer to a greater extent than a diversified fund. When a fund holds a large
position in the securities of one issuer, changes in the financial
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prospectus Page 42
<PAGE>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------
PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust
condition or in the market's assessment of that issuer may cause larger changes
in the fund's total return and in the price of its shares than it would for a
diversified fund.
TECHNOLOGY SECTOR RISK. PACE Large Company Growth Equity Investments and PACE
Small/Medium Company Growth Equity Investments each has invested a significant
portion of its assets in stocks of companies in the technology sector. As a
result, these funds are more susceptible to the risks that are associated with
that sector and their share prices may be more volatile than a fund with a
broader range of investments. Individual issuers within the technology sector,
as well as the techology sector as a whole, can be significantly affected by
obsolescence of existing technology, short product cycles, falling prices and
profits and competition from new market entrants.
ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
CASH RESERVES; DEFENSIVE POSITIONS. PACE Money Market Investments invests
exclusively in money market instruments. Each of the other funds may invest to a
limited extent in money market instruments as a cash reserve for liquidity or
other purposes. PACE Municipal Fixed Income Investments may invest to a limited
extent in taxable money market instruments for liquidity purposes when suitable
municipal money market instruments are not available.
As vehicles to implement long-term investment strategies, each fund is normally
fully invested in accordance with its investment objective and policies.
However, with the concurrence of Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., a fund
may take a defensive position that is different from its normal investment
strategy to protect itself from adverse market conditions. This means that a
fund may temporarily invest a larger-than-normal part, or even all, of its
assets in cash or money market instruments, including (for funds that are
authorized to invest outside the United States) money market instruments that
are denominated in foreign currencies. In addition, each fund may increase its
cash reserves in connection with transitioning its portfolio to reflect the
investment style and strategies of a new investment adviser. Because these
investments provide relatively low income, a defensive or transition position
may not be consistent with achieving a fund's investment objective.
In addition, the funds listed below may make the following temporary investments
for defensive purposes:
- PACE Municipal Fixed Income Investments may invest without limit in certain
taxable securities.
- PACE Global Fixed Income Investments may invest in securities of only one
country, including the United States.
- PACE International Equity Investments may invest without limit in bonds that
are traded in the United States and in foreign markets.
PORTFOLIO TURNOVER. Each fund (other than PACE Money Market Investments) may
engage in frequent trading to achieve its investment objective. Frequent trading
can result in portfolio turnover in excess of 100% (high portfolio turnover).
Frequent trading may increase the portion of a fund's capital gains that are
realized for tax purposes in any given year. This 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 are considered "short-term" for
tax purposes. Shareholders will pay higher taxes on distributions that represent
short-term capital gains than they would pay on distributions that represent
long-term capital gains. Frequent trading also may result in higher fund
expenses due to transaction costs.
The funds do not restrict the frequency of trading to limit expenses or to
minimize the tax effect that a fund's distributions may have on shareholders.
PACE MONEY MARKET INVESTMENTS. Like all money market funds, PACE Money Market
Investments is subject to maturity, quality and diversification requirements
designed to help it maintain a stable price of $1.00 per share. Mitchell
Hutchins may use a number of professional money management techniques to respond
to changing economic and money market conditions and to shifts in fiscal and
monetary policy. These techniques include varying the fund's composition and
weighted average maturity based on its assessment of the relative values of
various money market instruments and future interest rate patterns. Mitchell
Hutchins also may buy or sell money market instruments to take advantage of
yield differences.

BUYING SHARES
If you are a participant in the PaineWebber PACE-SM- Select Advisors Program,
you may buy Class P shares of the funds through a managed account maintained
with PaineWebber Incorporated.
You must make payment for fund shares by check made payable to PaineWebber. Your
payment is due no later than the first business day after the order is placed.
You may not place an order until you have completed the Investor Profile
Questionnaire for the PACE Select Advisors Program (described below), reviewed
the resulting analysis, made the asset allocation decision and executed the
necessary PACE Select Advisors Program documentation. Your Financial Advisor is
responsible for promptly forwarding your order to PaineWebber's headquarters.
The Trust and PaineWebber reserve the right to reject a purchase order or
suspend the offering of fund shares.
The minimum initial aggregate investment in the Trust is $10,000. Any subsequent
investment in the Trust must be at least $500. The Trust may vary these
minimums.
THE PAINEWEBBER PACE-SM- SELECT ADVISORS PROGRAM
The PaineWebber PACE-SM- Select Advisors Program is an investment advisory
service pursuant to which PaineWebber Incorporated provides you with
personalized investment allocation recommendations. PaineWebber does not have
any investment discretion over your PACE Select Advisors Program account. You
will make all the investment decisions.
Under the PACE Select Advisors Program, your Financial Advisor assists you in
- identifying your financial characteristics, including your risk tolerance and
investment objectives; and
- completing an Investor Profile Questionnaire, which you may update from time
to time with your Financial Advisor's assistance.
PaineWebber uses an investment profile evaluation and asset allocation
methodology to translate this information into a suggested allocation of your
assets among different funds. Your Financial Advisor presents the recommended
allocation to you initially and reviews the PACE Select Advisors Program account
with you at least annually. Your Financial Advisor also may, if you so request,
review with you the monthly account statements and other information, such as
quarterly performance data. Your Financial Advisor also monitors any changes in
your financial characteristics that you identify through a revised Investor
Profile Questionnaire and communicates these changes to PaineWebber for
reevaluation of your investment profile.
You may direct your PaineWebber Financial Advisor to automatically rebalance
your PACE Select Advisors Program account on a quarterly basis to assure that
any deviation from the designated allocation among the funds does not exceed a
specified threshold.
PACE PROGRAM FEE
For the services provided to you under the PACE Select Advisors Program, you
will pay PaineWebber a quarterly Program Fee at an annual rate of up to 1.50% of
the value of the shares of the funds held in your account under the PACE Select
Advisors Program. This quarterly fee is generally charged to your PaineWebber
account. The Program Fee may be reduced for
- certain Individual Retirement Accounts,
- retirement plans for self-employed individuals and
- employee benefit plans that are subject to the Employee Retirement Security
Act of 1974.
For these participants, PaineWebber may provide different services than those
described above and may charge different fees. These participants also may make
arrangements to pay the quarterly fee separately. In addition, Trustees of the
Trust, employees of Mitchell Hutchins and PaineWebber and their family members
who maintain an "employee-related" account at PaineWebber, and trustees or
directors of other PaineWebber mutual funds may participate in the PACE Select
Advisors Program at a reduced fee or for no fee.
Program Fees also may be subject to negotiation and may differ based upon the
type of account, the size of the account, the amount of PACE Select Advisors
Program assets in the account and the number or range of supplementary advisory
services to be provided by Financial Advisors, among other factors.
Financial Advisors receive a portion of the PACE Select Advisors Program Fee for
the services they provide to participants.
Investors who are fiduciaries for a retirement or employee benefit plan should
consider, in a prudent manner, the relationship of the fees to be paid by the
plan and the level of services to be provided by PaineWebber.

PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust
As a PACE Select Advisors Program participant, you may incur greater total fees
and expenses than investors purchasing shares of similar investment companies
without the benefit of these professional asset allocation recommendations.
SELLING SHARES
You can sell your fund shares at any time. You may sell your shares by
contacting your Financial Advisor in person or by telephone or mail. Your
Financial Advisor is responsible for promptly forwarding your request to
PaineWebber's headquarters. After it receives and accepts your request,
PaineWebber repurchases your fund shares. You generally will receive the
proceeds of the sale within the first business day after PaineWebber receives
the order.
PaineWebber reserves the right not to repurchase your shares. In that case,
PaineWebber forwards your request to sell your shares to the funds' transfer
agent. The transfer agent will sell your shares after you provide it with the
following information in writing:
- Your name and address;
- The fund's name;
- Your account number;
- The dollar amount or number of shares you want to sell; and
- 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 Trust and the transfer
agent will not accept signature guarantees that are not a part of these
programs.
Sales through the transfer agent may also need to include additional supporting
documents for sales by estates, trusts, guardianships, custodianships,
partnerships and corporations.
It costs the Trust money to maintain shareholder accounts. Therefore, the Trust
reserves the right to repurchase all fund shares in any PACE Select Advisors
Program account that has a net asset value of less than $7,500. If the Trust
elects to do this with your account, it will notify you that you can increase
the amount invested to the account minimum in effect at the time the PACE Select
Advisors Program account was originally opened or more within 30 days. This
notice may appear on your account statement.
If you want to sell shares that you purchased recently, the Trust 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.
PRICING AND VALUATION
The price at which you may buy or sell each fund's shares is based on the next
net asset value per share calculated after your order is placed. Each fund
calculates its net asset value on days that the New York Stock Exchange is open
as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE (generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern
time). The NYSE normally is not open, and the funds do not price their shares,
on most national holidays and on Good Friday. If trading on the NYSE is halted
for the day before 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, each fund's net asset value per
share will be calculated as of the time trading was halted.
PACE MONEY MARKET INVESTMENTS' net asset value per share is expected to be $1.00
per share, although this value is not guaranteed. PACE Money Market Investments
values its securities at their amortized cost. This method uses a constant
amortization to maturity of the difference between the cost of the instrument to
the fund and the amount due at maturity.
OTHER FUNDS. Each other fund calculates its net asset value based on the
current market value for its portfolio securities. The funds normally obtain
market values for their 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 Trust's board of trustees. The funds normally use 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 funds calculate the U.S. dollar value of investments that are denominated in
foreign currencies daily, based on current exchange rates. A fund may own
securities, including some securities that trade primarily in foreign markets,
that trade on weekends or other days on which a fund does not calculate net
asset value. As a result, a fund's net asset value may change on days when you
will not be able to buy or sell fund shares. If a 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.

APPENDIX A
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION FOR NEW INVESTMENT ADVISERS
Certain PACE funds have recently undergone a change in investment advisers. To
assist prospective and existing shareholders in making an informed investment
decision, this Appendix provides performance information about comparable mutual
funds, and/or a composite of all advisory accounts, managed by these new
investment advisers in a substantially similar manner to the way in which the
investment adviser manages the respective PACE Fund's assets ("Related
Performance Information").
Where an investment adviser has been managing a registered investment company
(mutual fund) with substantially similar investment objectives, policies and
strategies ("Comparable Fund") to those of a PACE fund, the Comparable Fund's
average total return is presented in accordance with SEC performance rules
(shown both before and after deducting any applicable fund sales charges). Where
an investment adviser manages advisory accounts in a manner that is
substantially similar to the way in which it manages a PACE fund's assets, this
appendix presents the composite performance of all those accounts ("Account
Composite Performance"), calculated in accordance with the recommended standards
of the Association of Investment Management and Research ("AIMR") (shown both
before and after deducting the maximum annual PACE Program fee). AIMR is a
non-profit membership and education organization that, among other things, has
formulated a set of performance presentation standards for investment advisers.
The Account Composite Performance was obtained from the records maintained by
the respective investment adviser and adjusted by Mitchell Hutchins to reflect
the fees and expenses of the corresponding PACE fund. Where applicable, both
Comparable Fund and Account Composite Performance is included. The performance
of the corresponding PACE fund is shown for Class P shares both before and after
deducting the maximum annual PACE Program fee. In addition, the performance of
an appropriate unmanaged benchmark index, not adjusted for any fees or expenses,
is provided as well.
Finally, please note that:
- Related Performance Information is not the PACE fund's own historical
performance and is not necessarily an indication of the corresponding PACE
fund's future performance. This is particularly true for Account Composite
Performance because these accounts may not be subject to certain investment
limitations, diversification requirements and other restrictions imposed on
mutual funds by the 1940 Act and the Internal Revenue Code, which, if
applicable, may have adversely affected the performance of these accounts.
- As more fully described below, certain investment advisers for which we have
included Related Performance Information manage only a portion of a PACE
fund's assets. THUS, THE FUTURE PERFORMANCE OF EACH INVESTMENT ADVISER WILL
IMPACT THE PERFORMANCE OF THE RESPECTIVE PACE FUND ONLY FOR THAT PORTION OF
THE ASSETS IT MANAGES. The percentage of a PACE fund's assets that is
allocated to a particular investment adviser can be changed by Mitchell
Hutchins at any time.
- Any investment adviser may be replaced at any time by Mitchell Hutchins,
subject to approval by the PACE fund's board of trustees. No shareholder vote
is required. THIS MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE MAY RESULT IN MORE FREQUENT TURNOVER OF
INVESTMENT ADVISERS THAN OTHER FUNDS THAT TYPICALLY MUST SEEK SHAREHOLDER
APPROVAL BEFORE MAKING SUCH A CHANGE.

SUMMARY OF FACTS AND REPRESENTATIONS
1. The parties to the transactions are as follows:
(a) PAINEWEBBER GROUP (PAINE WEBBER GROUP), located in New York, New York,
is the parent of PaineWebber. Paine Webber Group is one of the leading
full-line securities firms servicing institutions, governments and
individual investors in the United States and throughout the world. Paine
Webber Group conducts its businesses in part through PMAS, a division of
PaineWebber and Mitchell Hutchins, a wholly owned subsidiary of
PaineWebber. Paine Webber Group is a member of all principal securities
and commodities exchanges in the United States and the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. In addition, it holds memberships
or associate memberships on several principal foreign securities and
commodities exchanges. Although Paine Webber Group is not an operating
company and, as such, maintains no assets under management, as of
September 30, 1994, Paine Webber Group and its subsidiaries rendered
investment advisory services with respect to $36.1 billion in assets.
(b) PAINEWEBBER, whose principal executive offices are located in New York,
New York, provides investment advisory services to individuals, banks,
thrift institutions, investment companies, pension and profit sharing
plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations and other
business and government entities. PaineWebber is also responsible for
securities underwriting, investment and merchant banking services and
securities and commodities trading as principal and agent. PaineWebber
serves as the dealer of Trust shares described herein.
(c) PMAS, located in Weehawken, New Jersey is responsible for individual
investor account management and investor consulting services. PMAS
provides such services to the investors involved in various PaineWebber
investment
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prospectus Page B-4
<PAGE>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------
PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust
programs by providing asset allocation recommendations and related
services with respect to their investments. PMAS provides investment
consulting and advisory services to more than 40,000 accounts, with
account sizes ranging from institutional accounts in excess of $650
million in assets to individual accounts with $100,000 minimum
investments. PMAS provides investors in the Trust with asset allocation
recommendations and related services with respect to investments in the
Trust Portfolios.
(d) MITCHELL HUTCHINS, which is located in New York, New York, is a
registered investment adviser under the Investment Adviser's Act of 1940
(the Advisers Act) and a wholly owned subsidiary of PaineWebber. Mitchell
Hutchins provides investment advisory and asset management services to
investors and develops and distributes investment products, including
mutual funds and limited partnerships. Mitchell Hutchins also provides
financial services to over $24.8 billion in client assets representing
twenty-eight investment companies with fifty-five separate portfolios.
Mitchell Hutchins is providing investment management and administrative
services with respect to the Trust and investment advisory services with
respect to one of the Trust's Portfolios.
(e) STATE STREET BANK AND TRUST COMPANY (STATE STREET), located in North
Quincy, Massachusetts, serves as the custodian of assets for the Trust.
State Street is not affiliated with PaineWebber and its affiliates. It
provides a full array of integrated banking products, focusing on
servicing financial assets (i.e., asset custody, cash management,
securities lending, multi-currency accounting and foreign exchange),
managing assets and commercial lending. As of September 30, 1994, State
Street rendered custodian services with respect to approximately $1.6
trillion in assets and provided investment management services to
approximately $155 billion in assets.
(f) PFPC, INC. (PFPC), a subsidiary of PNC Bank, National Association, and
whose principal address is in Wilmington, Delaware, serves as the Trust's
transfer and dividend disbursing agent. PFPC is not affiliated with
PaineWebber and its affiliates. PFPC provides a complete range of mutual
fund administration and accounting services to a diverse product base of
domestic and international investment portfolios. PFPC is also one of the
nation's leading providers of transfer and shareholder servicing services
to mutual funds and asset management accounts. As of September 30, 1994,
PFPC rendered accounting and administration services to over 400 mutual
funds and provided transfer agency, dividend disbursing and/or
shareholder servicing services with respect to more than 3.1 million
shareholder accounts.
2. The Trust is a no load, open-end, diversified management investment company
registered under the '40 Act. The Trust was organized as a Delaware business
trust on September 9, 1994 and it has an indefinite duration. As of
November 6, 1995, the Trust had $184 million in net assets. The Trust
presently consists of twelve different portfolios which will pay dividends to
investors. The composition of the Portfolios will cover a spectrum of
investments ranging from foreign and U.S. Government-related securities to
equity and debt securities issued by foreign and domestic corporations.
Although a Portfolio of the Trust is permitted to invest its assets in
securities issued by PaineWebber and/or its affiliates, the percentage of that
Portfolio's net assets invested in such securities will never exceed one
percent. With the exception of the PACE Money Market Investments Portfolio,
shares in each of the Portfolios are being initially offered to the public at
a net asset value of $10 per share. Shares in the PACE Money Market
Investments Portfolio are being initially offered to the public at a net asset
value of $1.00 per share.
3. Mitchell Hutchins serves as the distributor of Trust shares and PaineWebber
serves as the dealer with respect to shares of the Portfolios.(2) Such shares
are being offered by PaineWebber at no load, to participants in the PACE
Program. The PACE Program is an investment service pursuant to which PMAS
provides participants in the PACE Program with asset allocation
recommendations and related services with respect to the Portfolios based on
an evaluation of an investor's investment objectives and risk tolerances. As
stated above, State Street will serve as the custodian of each Portfolio's
assets and PFPC serves as the Portfolio's transfer and dividend disbursing
agent.
To participate in the PACE Program, each investor must open a brokerage
account with PaineWebber.(3) The minimum initial investment in the PACE
Program is $10,000.
Although PaineWebber anticipates that investors in the Trust will initially
consist of institutions and
----------------------------------
(2) As distributor or principal underwriter for the Trust, Mitchell Hutchins
will use its best efforts, consistent with its other businesses, to sell shares
of the Portfolios. Pursuant to a separate dealer agreement with Mitchell
Hutchins, PaineWebber will sell Trust shares to investors. However, neither
Mitchell Hutchins nor PaineWebber will receive any compensation for their
services as distributor or dealer of Trust shares. According to the applicants,
Mitchell Hutchins and PaineWebber may be regarded as having an indirect economic
incentive by virtue of the fact that Mitchell Hutchins and PaineWebber will be
paid for the services they provide to the Trust in their respective capacities
as investment manager and administrator of the Trust (Mitchell Hutchins) and as
the provider of asset allocation and related services (PaineWebber, through
PMAS).
(3) According to the Statement of Additional Information that accompanies the
Prospectus for the PACE Program, shares in the Trust are not certificated for
reasons of economy and convenience. However, PFPC maintains a record of each
investor's ownership of shares. Although Trust shares are transferable and
accord voting rights to their owners, they do not confer pre-emptive rights
(i.e., the privilege of a shareholder to maintain a proportionate share of
ownership of a company by purchasing a proportionate share of any new stock
issues). PaineWebber represents that in the context of an open-end investment
company that continuously issues and redeems shares, a pre-emptive right would
make the normal operations of the Trust impossible.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust
individuals, it is proposed that prospective investors will include Plans
for which PaineWebber may or may not currently maintain investment accounts.
A majority of these Plans may be IRAs or Keogh Plans. In addition, it is
proposed that Plans for which PaineWebber or an affiliate serves as a
prototype sponsor and/or a nondiscretionary trustee or custodian be
permitted to invest in the Trust.(4)
The applicants represent that the initial purchase of shares in the Trust by
a Plan participating in the PACE Program may give rise to a prohibited
transaction where PaineWebber, or an affiliate thereof, is a party in
interest with respect to the Plan. PaineWebber also acknowledges that a
prohibited transaction could arise upon a subsequent purchase or redemption
of shares in the Trust by a participating Plan inasmuch as the party in
interest relationship between PaineWebber and the Plan may have been
established at that point.
Accordingly, the applicants have requested retroactive exemptive relief from
the Department with respect to the purchase and redemption of shares in the
Trust by a Plan participating in the PACE Program where PaineWebber does not
(a) sponsor the Plan (other than as prototype sponsor) or (b) have
discretionary authority over such Plan's assets.(5) No commissions or fees
will be paid by a Plan with respect to the sale and redemption transactions
or a Plan's exchange of shares in a Portfolio for shares of another
Portfolio. If granted, the proposed exemption will be effective as of
August 18, 1995.
4. Overall responsibility for the management and supervision of the Trust and
the Portfolios rests with the Trust's Board of Trustees (the Trustees). The
Trustees will approve all significant agreements involving the Trust and the
persons and companies that provide services to the Trust and the Portfolios.
5. Mitchell Hutchins also serves as the investment manager to each Portfolio.
Under its investment management and administration agreement with the Trust,
Mitchell Hutchins will provide certain investment management and
administrative services to the Trust and the Portfolios that, in part, involve
calculating each Portfolio's net asset value(6) and, with the exception of the
PACE Money Market Investments Portfolio (for which Mitchell Hutchins will
exercise investment discretion), making recommendations to the Board of
Trustees of the Trust regarding (a) the investment policies of each Portfolio
and (b) the selection and retention of the Sub-Advisers who will exercise
investment discretion with respect to the assets of each Portfolio.(7)
The Sub-Advisers will provide discretionary advisory services with respect
to the investment of the assets of the respective Portfolios (other than the
PACE Money Market Investments Portfolio) on the basis of their performance
in their respective areas of expertise in asset management. With the
exception of the PACE Money Market Investments Portfolio which will be
advised by Mitchell Hutchins, PaineWebber represents that all of the
Sub-Advisers, will be independent of, and will remain independent of
PaineWebber and/or its affiliates. The Sub-Advisers will be registered
investment advisers under the Advisers Act and maintain their principal
executive offices in various regions of the United States.
The administrative services for which Mitchell Hutchins will be responsible
include the following: (a) supervising all aspects of the operations of the
Trust and each Portfolio (e.g., oversight of transfer agency, custodial,
legal and accounting services; (b) providing the Trust and each Portfolio
with corporate, administrative and clerical personnel as well as maintaining
books and records for the Trust and each Portfolio; (c) arranging for the
periodic preparation, updating, filing and dissemination of the Trust's
Registration Statement, proxy materials, tax returns and required reports to
each Portfolio's shareholders and the SEC, as well as other federal or state
regulatory authorities; (d) providing the Trust and each Portfolio with, and
obtaining for it, office space, equipment and
----------------------------------
As for voting rights, PaineWebber states that they are accorded to
recordholders of Trust shares. PaineWebber notes that a recordholder of Trust
shares may determine to seek the submission of proxies by Plan participants and
vote Trust shares accordingly. In the case of individual account plans such as
Section 404(c) Plans, PaineWebber believes that most Plans will pass the vote
through to Directing Participants on a pro-rata basis.
(4) The Department notes that the general standards of fiduciary conduct
promulgated under the Act would apply to the participation in the PACE Program
by an Independent Fiduciary. Section 404 of the Act requires that a fiduciary
discharge his duties respecting a plan solely in the interest of the plan's
participants and beneficiaries and in a prudent fashion. Accordingly, an
Independent Fiduciary must act prudently with respect to the decision to enter
into the PACE Program with PMAS as well as with respect to the negotiation of
services that will be performed thereunder and the compensation that will be
paid to PaineWebber and its affiliates. The Department expects an Independent
Fiduciary, prior to entering into the PACE Program, to understand fully all
aspects of such arrangement following disclosure by PMAS of all relevant
information.
(5) PaineWebber represents that to the extent employee benefit plans that are
maintained by PaineWebber purchase or redeem shares in the Trust, such
transactions will meet the provisions of Prohibited Transaction Exemption (PTE)
77-3 (42 FR 18734, April 8, 1977). PaineWebber further represents that, although
the exemptive relief proposed above would not permit PaineWebber or an affiliate
(while serving as a Plan fiduciary with discretionary authority over the
management of a Plan's assets) to invest those assets over which it exercises
discretionary authority in Trust shares, a purchase or redemption of Trust
shares under such circumstances would be permissible if made in compliance with
the terms and conditions of PTE 77-4 (42 FR 18732, April 8, 1977). The
Department expresses no opinion herein as to whether such transactions will
comply with the terms and conditions of PTEs 77-3 and 77-4.
(6) The net asset value of each Portfolio's shares, except for the PACE Money
Market Investments Portfolio, fluctuates and is determined as of the close of
regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE) (currently, 4:00 p.m.
Eastern Time) each business day. The net asset value of shares in the PACE Money
Market Investments Portfolio is determined as of 12:00 p.m. each business day.
Each Portfolio's net asset value per share is determined by dividing the value
of the securities held by the Portfolio plus any cash or other assets minus all
liabilities by the total number of Portfolio shares outstanding.
(7) Subject to the supervision and direction of the Trustees, Mitchell
Hutchins will provide to the Trust investment management evaluation services
principally by performing initial review on prospective Sub-Advisers for each
Portfolio and thereafter monitoring each Sub-Adviser's performance. In
evaluating prospective Sub-Advisers, Mitchell Hutchins will consider, among
other factors, each Sub-Adviser's level of expertise, consistency of performance
and investment discipline or philosophy. Mitchell Hutchins will have the
responsibility for communicating performance expectations and evaluations to the
Sub-Advisers and ultimately recommending to the Trustees whether a Sub-Adviser's
contract should be continued.

services; (e) providing the Trustees with economic and investment analyses
and reports, and making available to the Trustees, upon request, any
economic, statistical and investment services. These administrative services
do not include any management services that might be performed by Mitchell
Hutchins. As noted in Representations 17 and 18, Mitchell Hutchins is
separately compensated for management services rendered to the Trust.
6. Through the PACE Program, PMAS is providing a Plan investor with non-binding,
asset allocation recommendations with respect to such investor's investments
in the Portfolios. In order to make these evaluations, PMAS will furnish
copies of an investor questionnaire, designed to elicit information about the
specific investment needs, objectives and expectations of the investor, to an
Independent Fiduciary of a Title I Plan that does not permit
individually-directed investments, to an Independent Fiduciary of an IRA or a
Keogh Plan, or to a Directing Participant of a Section 404(c) Plan. Although
the contents of the questionnaire may vary somewhat depending upon the type of
Plan investing in the PACE Program, for a particular Plan, the same
questionnaire will be given to each participant.
In the case of a Section 404(c) Plan where an Independent Fiduciary has
established an Undisclosed Account with PaineWebber in the name of the Plan,
PMAS will provide investor questionnaires to each Directing Participant
through PaineWebber Investment Executives (who are registered
representatives of PaineWebber), via the Plan's benefits personnel or
independent recordkeeper (the Recordkeeper), or by other means requested by
the Independent Fiduciary. The applicants recognize that Section
404(c) Plans typically employ a Recordkeeper to assist the Independent
Fiduciary with maintaining Plan-related data which is used to generate
benefit status reports, regulatory compliance reports and participant- and
Plan-level investment performance reports. Therefore, the Undisclosed
Account arrangement is intended to coordinate with the functions
traditionally provided to Section 404(c) Plans by their Recordkeepers.(8)
7. Based upon data obtained from the investor questionnaire, PMAS will evaluate
the investor's risk tolerances and investment objectives. PMAS will then
recommend, in writing, an appropriate allocation of assets among suitable
Portfolios that conforms to these tolerances and objectives.
PaineWebber represents that PMAS will not have any discretionary authority
or control with respect to the allocation of an investor's assets among the
Portfolios. In the case of an IRA or Keogh Plan, PaineWebber represents that
all of PMAS's recommendations and evaluations will be presented to the
Independent Fiduciary and will be implemented only if accepted and acted
upon by such fiduciary.
In the case of a Section 404(c) Plan, PaineWebber represents that Directing
Participants in such Plan will be presented with recommendations and
evaluations that aretailored to the responses provided by that Directing
Participant in his or her questionnaire. PMAS's recommendations will be
disseminated to Directing Participants in accordance with procedures
established for the Plan.
After receipt of PMAS's initial recommendations, which may or may not be
adopted, the Independent Fiduciary or Directing Participant, as applicable,
will select the specific Portfolios. PMAS will continue to recommend to
Independent Fiduciaries or Directing Participants asset allocations among
the selected Portfolios.
8. Aside from the investor questionnaire, in order for a Plan to participate in
the PACE Program, PaineWebber or PMAS will provide an Independent Fiduciary
with a copy of the Trust Prospectus discussing (a) the investment objectives
of the Portfolios comprising the Trust, (b) the policies employed to achieve
these objectives, (c) the corporate affiliation existing between PaineWebber,
PMAS, Mitchell Hutchins and their subsidiaries, and (d) the compensation paid
to such entities by the Trust and information explaining the risks attendant
to investing in the Trust. In addition, upon written or oral request to
PaineWebber, the Independent Fiduciary will be given a Statement of Additional
Information supplementing the Prospectus which describes, in further detail,
the types of securities and other instruments in which the Portfolios may
invest, the investment policies and strategies that the Portfolios may utilize
and certain risks attendant to those investments, policies and strategies.
Further, each Independent Fiduciary will be given a copy of the investment
advisory agreement between PMAS and such Plan relating to participation in the
PACE Program, including copies of the notice of proposed exemption and grant
notice for the exemptive relief provided herein. Upon oral or written request
to the Trust, PaineWebber will also provide an Independent
----------------------------------
(8) The applicants wish to emphasize that the PACE Program can currently be
provided to participants in Section 404(c) Plans on either an Undisclosed
Account or a disclosed account (the Disclosed Account) basis (i.e., where the
Independent Fiduciary opens a separate PACE Program account with PaineWebber for
each Directing Participant). In this regard, the applicants note that
PaineWebber presently offers the PACE Program on a Disclosed Account arrangement
to IRAs and Keogh Plans. However, for other Section 404(c) Plans such as those
that are covered under the provisions of section 401(k) of the Code, PaineWebber
prefers not to establish Disclosed Accounts for individual participants because
of servicing and other administrative matters typically undertaken by such
Plan's Recordkeepers. The applicants note that from the participant's
perspective, there is no difference in the nature of the services provided under
the PACE Program regardless of whether the participant's investment is held
through a "Disclosed" or "Undisclosed" Account arrangement. The applicants state
that these designations are primarily internal distinctions relating to whether
the participant's name appears in the account set-up and reflects differences in
the applicable sub-accounting functions.
Notwithstanding the above, the Department wishes to point out that,
regardless of the arrangement negotiated with PaineWebber, an Independent
Fiduciary of a Section 404(c) Plan has the responsibility to disseminate all
information it receives to each Directing Participant investing in the PACE
Program.

PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust
Fiduciary with a copy of the respective investment advisory agreements between
Mitchell Hutchins and the Sub-Advisers.
In the case of a Section 404(c) Plan, depending on the arrangement
negotiated with the Independent Fiduciary, PaineWebber represents that the
Independent Fiduciary will make available copies of the foregoing documents
to Directing Participants.
In addition, Independent Fiduciaries and, if applicable, Directing
Participants, will receive introductory documentation regarding the PACE
Program in marketing materials and in other communications. Further,
depending upon the arrangement negotiated between PMAS and the Independent
Fiduciary, a PaineWebber Investment Executive will meet with a Directing
Participant, upon oral or written request, to discuss the services offered
under the PACE Program, including the rebalancing feature described in
Representation 12, as well as the operation and objectives of the
Portfolios.(9)
9. If accepted as an investor in the PACE Program, an Independent Fiduciary will
be required by PMAS to acknowledge, in writing, prior to purchasing Trust
shares, that such fiduciary has received copies of the documents referred to
in Representation 8. With respect to a Plan that is covered by Title I of the
Act (e.g., a defined contribution plan), where investment decisions will be
made by a trustee, investment manager or a named fiduciary, PMAS will require
that such Independent Fiduciary acknowledge in writing receipt of such
documents and represent to PaineWebber that such fiduciary is (a) independent
of PaineWebber and its affiliates, (b) capable of making an independent
decision regarding the investment of Plan assets, (c) knowledgeable with
respect to the Plan in administrative matters and funding matters related
thereto, and (d) able to make an informed decision concerning participation in
the PACE Program.
With respect to a Section 404(c) Plan, written acknowledgement of the
receipt of such documents will be provided by the Independent Fiduciary
(i.e., the Plan administrator, trustee, investment manager or named
fiduciary, as the recordholder of Trust shares). Such Independent Fiduciary
will be required to represent, in writing, to PMAS that such fiduciary
is (a) independent of PaineWebber and its affiliates, (b) knowledgeable with
respect to the Plan in administrative matters and funding matters related
thereto, and (c) able to make an informed decision concerning participation
in the PACE Program.
10. After the selection of specific Portfolios by an Independent Fiduciary or a
Directing Participant,(10) PMAS will continue to provide recommendations to
such persons relating to asset allocations among the selected Portfolios.
However, with respect to a Section 404(c) Plan in which at least three
Portfolios may be selected by the Independent Fiduciary, PMAS's initial asset
allocation recommendation to Directing Participants will be limited to fthe
suggested Portfolios offered under the Plan. PMAS anticipates that it may
also work with the Independent Fiduciary of a Section 404(c) Plan to assist
the fiduciary in (a) identifying and drafting investment objectives,
(b) selecting suitable investment categories or actual Portfolios to be
offered to Directing Participants or (c) recommending appropriate long-term
investment allocations to a Directing Participant, if this individual
receives such advice.
An Independent Fiduciary or a Directing Participant will be permitted to
change his or her investment allocation by specifying the new allocation in
writing or by other means authorized by the Plan (e.g., by use of a kiosk).
Although PaineWebber currently imposes no limitation on the frequency with
which an Independent Fiduciary or a Directing Participant may change his or
her prescribed asset allocation, PaineWebber reserves the right to impose
reasonable limitations.
11. Depending on the arrangement negotiated with PMAS, PaineWebber will provide
each Independent Fiduciary with the following information: (a) Written
confirmations of each purchase and redemption of shares of a Portfolio;
(b) daily telephone quotations of such Plan's account balance; (c) a monthly
statement of account specifying the net asset value of a Plan's assets that
are invested in such account; and (d) a quarterly, written investment
performance monitoring report.
The monthly account statement will include, among other information:
(a) cash flow and transaction activity during the month, including purchase,
sale and exchange activity and dividends paid or reinvested; (b) unrealized
gains or losses on Portfolio shares held; and (c) a summary of total
earnings and capital returns on the Plan's PACE Program Portfolio for the
month and year-to-date. The quarterly investment performance report will
include, among other information, the following: (a) a record of the
performance of the Plan's PACE Program portfolio for the quarter and since
inception showing rates of return relative to comparative market indices
(illustrated in a manner that reflects the effect of any fees for
participation in the PACE Program actually incurred during the period)(11);
(b) an investment outlook summary containing market commentary; and (c) the
Plan's actual PACE Program portfolio with a breakdown, in both dollars and
percentages, of the holdings in each Portfolio. In addition, to the extent
required by the arrangement negotiated with the Independent Fiduciary, the
quarterly performance monitoring report will (a) contain an analysis and an
evaluation of a Plan investor's account to assist the investor to ascertain
whether the investment objectives are being met, and
----------------------------------
(9) The Department is expressing no opinion as to whether the information
provided under the PACE Program is sufficient to enable a Directing Participant
to exercise independent control over assets in his or her account as
contemplated by Section 404(c) of the Act.
(10) In the case of a Section 404(c) Plan, PMAS will receive electronically
from the Recordkeeper each participant's investment selections.
(11) The comparative index is a blended index of the individual Portfolio
indices that are weighted by the allocation percentages corresponding to those
holdings that make up the investor's total investment in the PACE Program.

PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust
(b) recommend, from time to time, changes in Portfolio allocations. The
quarterly performance monitoring report is described in the summary of the
PACE Program contained in the Trust Prospectus.
With respect to a Section 404(c) Plan, the quarterly investment performance
report transmitted to the Independent Fiduciary will include the following
aggregate information relative to the Undisclosed Account as well as market
commentary: (a) a record of the performance of the Plan's assets and rates
of return as compared to several appropriate market indices (illustrated in
a manner that reflects the effect of any fees for participation in the PACE
Program actually incurred during the period); and (b) the Plan's actual
investment portfolio with a breakdown of investments made in each Portfolio.
As to each Directing Participant, PMAS will provide information to be
contained in the quarterly performance monitoring report to such
participants.
In addition, on both a quarterly and annual basis, commencing with the first
quarterly report due after this notice of proposed exemption is issued,
PaineWebber will provide, as applicable, an Independent Fiduciary or a
Directing Participant with written disclosures of (a) the total, expressed
in dollars, of each Portfolio's brokerage commissions that are paid to
PaineWebber and its affiliates; (b) the total, expressed in dollars, of each
Portfolio's brokerage commissions that are paid to unrelated brokerage
firms; (c) the average brokerage commissions per share by the Trust to
brokers affiliated with the PaineWebber, expressed as cents per share; and
(d) the average brokerage commissions per share by the Trust to brokers
unrelated to the PaineWebber and its affiliates, expressed as cents per
share for any year in which brokerage commissions are paid to PaineWebber by
the Trust Portfolios in which a Plan's assets are invested.
Further, the Independent Fiduciary or Directing Participant, as applicable,
will have access to a PaineWebber Investment Executive for the discussion of
the quarterly performance monitoring reports, the rebalancing feature
described below in Representation 12 or any questions that may arise.
12. Depending on the arrangement negotiated with PMAS, for any investor who so
directs PMAS, the investor's Trust holdings will be automatically rebalanced
on a periodic basis to maintain the investor's designated allocation among
the Portfolios. PMAS will receive no additional compensation to provide this
service. At both the Independent Fiduciary and Directing Participant levels,
the rebalancing election will be made in writing or in any manner permitted
by the Plan (e.g., in the case of a Section 404(c) Plan, electronic
transmissionby the Recordkeeper to PMAS of the Directing Participant's
election). The election will be accompanied by a disclosure that is designed
to provide the Independent Fiduciary and the Directing Participant, as
applicable, with an understanding of the rebalancing feature. Disclosure of
the rebalancing feature is included in the Prospectus for the PACE Program
which will be provided to each Independent Fiduciary and Directing
Participant.
It is currently anticipated that screening will be performed quarterly with
respect to the PACE Program accounts for which the investor has elected the
rebalancing service and that rebalancing will be performed for each such
account where any Portfolio allocation deviates from the allocation
prescribed by the investor by the agreed-upon uniform threshold.(12) The
threshold for triggering rebalancing is a percentage (presently, 2 1/2
percent) that has been established by PaineWebber and is applied uniformly
to all accounts subject to rebalancing. If PaineWebber were, in the future,
to determine that this uniform threshold should be changed, PMAS would
notify all investors (including Independent Fiduciaries and Directing
Participants) who had elected the rebalancing feature. Then, in order to
continue to provide this service, PMAS would need to obtain the consent of
each such investor.
The applicants note that rebalancing is a feature that an investor chooses
to apply indefinitely until the investor notifies PaineWebber that it wishes
to have this service discontinued. After rebalancing has been discontinued,
an investor may reactivate the rebalancing service by notifying PaineWebber
in writing.
13. PaineWebber notes that not all of the services described above will be
provided to every Plan. The services that will be provided will depend on
what is decided upon by the Independent Fiduciary. Assuming the Independent
Fiduciary requests a reduction in the level of services, there will be no
corresponding reduction in the fee that the fiduciary pays PMAS. This is due
to the bundled nature of the services provided in the PACE Program. For
example, if the Independent Fiduciary were to limit the number of Portfolios
available as investment options for its Plan participants, this might be
deemed a reduction in the services available under the PACE Program that
would not result in any reduction in the applicable Program fee. Similarly,
under the PACE Program, an Independent Fiduciary of a Section 404(c) Plan may
decide for its own reasons not to make the automatic rebalancing service
available to Directing Participants. Under such
----------------------------------
(12) Currently, with regard to investors who have elected the rebalancing
feature, rebalancing is effected by an automated, mechanical system that, as to
each account: (a) Calculates the current allocation for each Portfolio based on
the quarter-end net asset value; (b) compares the current allocation for each
Portfolio with the allocation prescribed by the investor; (c) identifies for
rebalancing all accounts with one or more Portfolios whose current allocation
deviates by the agreed-upon threshold from the allocation prescribed by the
investor; and (d) for each account which has been identified for rebalancing
pursuant to (a)-(c), (1) calculates the dollar difference between the current
allocation and the allocation prescribed by the investor, (2) reduces each
Portfolio whose current allocation exceeds the allocation prescribed by the
investor by an amount equal to the dollar difference between the two
allocations, and (3) increases each Portfolio whose current allocation is less
than the allocation prescribed by the investor by an amount equal to the dollar
difference between the two allocations. This rebalancing is accomplished by
automatically exchanging, in the order of the Portfolio's respective CUSIP
numbers, a dollar-equivalent number of shares of each Portfolio to be reduced
for the corresponding number of shares of a Portfolio to be increased until the
current allocation is equal to the allocation prescribed by the investor.
Valuation of the Portfolios is done as of the close of regular trading on the
NYSE each business day.

PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust
circumstances, PMAS will not reduce its fees to reflect the absence of the
provision of rebalancing services to the Plan. Further, under the particular
arrangement which it has negotiated with PMAS, the Independent Fiduciary may
or may not request PaineWebber Investment Executives to make presentations or
be available to meet with Directing Participants.
Thus, an Independent Fiduciary may choose all, some or none of the PACE
Program's optional services. If an Independent Fiduciary selects all of
these services, the Plan will incur no greater an annual fee than had that
Independent Fiduciary selected some or none of these services. The absence
of a reduction in fees in the event not all services are requested is an
issue that should be considered by the Independent Fiduciary.(13)
Nonetheless, the Applicants represent that the reduction in the types of
services provided will not cause the fees paid to PaineWebber by a Plan
under the PACE Program to violate section 408(b)(2) of the Act.
14. Plans wishing to redeem their Trust shares may communicate their requests in
writing or by telephone to PMAS. Redemption requests received in proper
form prior to the close of trading on the NYSE will be effected at the net
asset value per share determined on that day. Redemption requests received
after the close of regular trading on the NYSE will be effected
at the net asset value at the close of business of the next day, except on
weekends or holidays when the NYSE is closed. A Portfolio will be required to
transmit redemption proceeds for credit to an investor's account
with PaineWebber within 5 business days after receipt of the redemption
request.(14) In the case of an IRA or Keogh Plan investor, PaineWebber will
not hold redemption proceeds as free credit balances and will, in the absence
of receiving investment instructions, place all such assets in a money market
fund (other than the PACE Money Market Investments Portfolio) that may be
affiliated with PaineWebber.(15) In the case of Plans that are covered by
Title I of the Act, the redemption proceeds will be invested by PaineWebber
in accordance with the investment directions of the Independent Fiduciary
responsible for the management of the Plan's assets. With respect to a
Section 404(c) Plan, the treatment of such investment will depend upon the
arrangement for participant investment instructions selected by the Plan
sponsor. In the event that the Independent Fiduciary does not give other
investment directions, such assets will be swept into a no-load money market
fund that may be affiliated with PaineWebber. No brokerage charge or
commission is charged to the participant for this service.
Due to the high costs of maintaining small PACE Program (Plan) accounts, the
Trusts may redeem all Trust shares held in a PACE Program account in which
the Trust shares have a current value of $7,500 or less after the investor
has been given at least thirty days in which to purchase additional Trust
shares to increase the value of the account to more than the $7,500 amount.
Proceeds of an involuntary redemption will be deposited in the investor's
brokerage account unless PaineWebber is otherwise instructed.(16)
15. Through the PACE Program, shares of a Portfolio may be exchanged by an
investor for shares of another Portfolio at their respective net asset values
and without the payment of an exchange fee. However, Portfolio shares are not
exchangeable with shares of other PaineWebber group of funds or portfolio
families.
With respect to brokerage transactions that are entered into under the PACE
Program for a Portfolio, such transactions may be executed through
PaineWebber and other affiliated broker-dealers, if in the judgment of
Mitchell Hutchins or the Sub-Adviser, as applicable, the use of such
broker-dealer is likely to result in price and execution at least as
favorable, and at a commission charge comparable to those of other qualified
broker-dealers.
16. Each Portfolio will bear its own expenses, which generally include all costs
that are not specifically borne by PaineWebber, Mitchell Hutchins or the
Sub-Advisers. Included among a Portfolio's expenses will be costs incurred in
connection with the Portfolio's organization, investment management and
administration fees, fees for necessary professional and brokerage services,
fees for any pricing service, the costs of regulatory compliance and costs
associated with maintaining the Trust's legal existence and shareholder
relations. No Portfolio, however, will impose sales charges on purchases,
reinvested dividends, deferred sales charges, redemption fees; nor will any
Portfolio incur distribution expenses. Investment management fees payable to
Mitchell Hutchins and the Sub-Advisers will be disclosed in the Trust
Prospectus.
17. As to each Plan, the total fees that are paid to PMAS and its affiliates
will constitute no more than reasonable compensation.(17) In this regard, for
its services under
----------------------------------
(13) In this regard, the Department emphasizes that it expects the Independent
Fiduciary to consider prudently the relationship of the fees to be paid by the
Plan to the level of services to be provided by PaineWebber. In response to the
Department's concern over this matter, PaineWebber represents that it will amend
the Trust Prospectus to include the following statement: "Investors who are
fiduciaries or otherwise, in the process of making investment decisions with
respect to Plans, should consider, in a prudent manner, the relationship of the
fees to be paid by the Plan along with the level of services provided by
PaineWebber."
(14) PaineWebber will provide clearance (on a fully disclosed basis),
settlement and other back office services to other broker-dealers.
(15) The applicants are not requesting, nor is the Department proposing,
exemptive relief with respect to the investment, by PaineWebber, of redemption
proceeds in an affiliated money market fund and where the Plan investor has not
given investment instructions. The applicants represent that to the extent
PaineWebber is considered a fiduciary, such investments will comply with the
terms and conditions of PTE 77-4. However, the Department expresses no opinion
herein on whether such transactions are covered by this class exemption.
(16) The thirty day limit does not restrict a Plan's ability to redeem its
interest in the Trust. The thirty day notice period is provided to give a Plan
an opportunity to increase the value of the assets in its Plan account with
PaineWebber to an amount in excess of $7,500. If desired, the Plan may still
follow the redemption guidelines described above.
(17) The applicants represent that PMAS and its affiliates will not receive
12b-1 Fees in connection with the transactions.

PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust
the PACE Program, PMAS charges an investor a quarterly fee for asset
allocation and related services. This "outside fee", will not be more than
1.50 percent on an annual basis of the maximum annual value of the assets in
the investor's PACE Program account. Such fee may be paid either from the
assets in the account or by separate check. A smaller outside fee may be
charged depending on such factors as the size of the PACE Program account
(e.g., PACE Program accounts in excess of $100,000), the number of Plan
participants or the number of PACE Program accounts. The outside fee is
charged directly to an investor and is neither affected by the allocation of
assets among the Portfolios nor by whether an investor follows or ignores
PMAS's advice.(18) In the case of Plans, the outside fee may be paid by the
Plan or the Plan sponsor or, in the case of IRAs only, the fee may be paid by
the IRA owner directly.
For Plan investors, the outside fee will be payable in full within five
business days (or such other period as may be required under applicable law
or regulation) after the trade date for the initial investment in the
Portfolios and will be based on the value of assets in the PACE Program on
the trade date of the initial investment. The initial fee payment will cover
the period from the initial investment trade date through the last calendar
day of the subsequent calendar quarter, and the fee will be pro-rated
accordingly. Thereafter, the quarterly fee will cover the period from the
first calendar day through the last calendar day of the current calendar
quarter. The quarterly fee will be based on the value of assets in the PACE
Program measured as of the last calendar day of the previous quarter, and
will be payable on the fifth business day of the current quarter.
If additional funds are invested in the Portfolios during any quarter, the
applicable fee, pro-rated for the number of calendar days then remaining in
the quarter and covering the amount of such additional funds, shall be
charged and be payable five business days later. In the case of redemptions
during a quarter, the fee shall be reduced accordingly, pro-rated for the
number of calendar days then remaining in the quarter. If the net fee
increase or decrease to an investor for additional purchases and/or
redemptions during any one quarter is less than $20, the fee increase or
decrease will be waived.
In addition, for investment management and administrative services provided
to the Trust, Mitchell Hutchins will be paid, from each Portfolio, a fee
which is computed daily and paid monthly at an annual rate ranging from .35
percent to 1.10 percent, of which the management fee component ranges from
.15 percent to .90 percent on an annual basis, of each Portfolio's average
daily net assets depending upon the Portfolio's objective.(19) From these
management fees, Mitchell Hutchins will compensate the applicable
Sub-Adviser. This "inside fee," which is the difference between the
individual Portfolio's total management fee and the fee paid by Mitchell
Hutchins to the Sub-Adviser, will vary from the annual rate of .15 percent
to .40 percent depending on the Portfolio. With the exception of the PACE
Money Market Investments Portfolio from which Mitchell Hutchins is paid a
management fee of 15 basis points, Mitchell Hutchins is retaining 20 basis
points as a management fee from each remaining single Portfolio on
investment assets attributable to the Plans. Pursuant to Transfer Agency and
Service Agreements with the Trust, PFPC and State Street will be paid annual
fees of $350,000 and $650,000, respectively, for transfer agent and
custodial services.
18. The management fees that are paid at the Portfolio level to Mitchell
Hutchins and the Sub-Advisers are set forth in the following table. For
purposes of the table, Mitchell Hutchins and a Sub-Adviser are referred to as
"MH" and "SA," respectively. As noted in the table, the sum of the management
fees retained by Mitchell Hutchins and the Sub-Adviser with respect to a
Portfolio will equal the total management fee paid by that Portfolio.

(18) PaineWebber represents that the outside fee will not be imposed on the
accounts of the PaineWebber Group and its subsidiaries, including PaineWebber,
PMAS, Mitchell Hutchins or their subsidiaries, accounts of their immediate
families and IRAs and certain employee pension benefit plans for these persons.
The applicants state that this fee will be waived to encourage employees to
invest in PaineWebber, although PaineWebber reserves the right to impose such
fees. However, with respect to IRAs or Plans maintained by PaineWebber or its
affiliates for their employees, the applicants assert that such waiver would be
required by PTE 77-3.
(19) The fees payable to Mitchell Hutchins under its investment management and
administration agreement with the Trust are comprised of two components. One
component is for administrative services provided to each Portfolio at the
annual rate of .20 percent of each Portfolio's net assets. The second component
is for investment management and related services provided to each Portfolio.
The annualized fee range here is from .15 percent to .90 percent of the
Portfolio's average daily net assets.

PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust
PMAS is offsetting, quarterly, against the outside fee such amounts as is
necessary to ensure that Mitchell Hutchins retains no more than 20 basis
points as a management fee from any Portfolio on investment assets
attributable to any Plan.(20)
The administrative services fee payable to Mitchell Hutchins is not being
offset against the outside fee. Instead, that fee is being retained by
Mitchell Hutchins.
19. The following example demonstrates the operation of the fee offset
mechanism, the calculation of the net inside fee, and the calculation of the
total of a Plan investor's net outside fee and share of the investment
management fees paid by the Portfolios in a given calendar quarter or year:
Assume that as of September 30, 1995, the net asset value of Trust Portfolio
shares held by a Plan investor was $1,000. Investment assets attributable to
the Plan were distributed among five Trust Portfolios: (1) PACE Money Market
Investments in which the Plan made a $50 investment and from which Mitchell
Hutchins would retain an inside fee of .15 percent; (2) PACE Intermediate
Fixed Income Investments in which the Plan made a $200 investment and from
which Mitchell Hutchins would retain an inside fee of .20 percent; (3) PACE
Large Company Value Equity Investments in which the Plan made a $250
investment and Mitchell Hutchins would retain an inside fee of .30 percent;
(4) PACE Small/Medium Company Growth Equity Investments in which the Plan
made a $250 investment and Mitchell Hutchins would be entitled to receive an
inside fee of .30 percent; and (5) PACE International Equity Investments in
which the Plan made a $250 investment and Mitchell Hutchins would be
entitled to receive an inside fee of .30 percent.
Assume that the Plan investor pays an outside fee of 1.50 percent so that
the total outside fee for the calendar quarter October 1 through
December 31, prior to the fee offset, would be as follows:

----- -------------- -------
Total Outside Fee Per Quarter........................... 1,000 -- 3.7500
</TABLE>
Under the proposed fee offset, the outside fee charged to the Plan must be
reduced by a Reduction Factor to ensure that Mitchell Hutchins retains an
inside fee of no more than 20 basis points from each of the Portfolios on
investment assets attributable to the Plan. The following table shows the
Reduction Factor as applied to each of the Portfolios comprising the Trust:

PACE International Equity Investments................... .30 .20 .10
PACE International Emerging Markets Investments......... .40 .20 .20
</TABLE>
Under the proposed fee offset, a Reduction Factor of .10 percent is applied
against the quarterly outside fee with respect to the value of Plan assets
that have been invested in PACE Large Company Value Equity Investments, PACE
Small/Medium Company Growth Equity Investments and PACE International Equity
Investments. As noted above, the PACE Money Market Investments Portfolio and
the PACE Intermediate Fixed Income Investments Portfolio do not require the
application of a Reduction Factor because the management fee retained by
Mitchell Hutchins for managing these Portfolios does not exceed 20 basis
points. Therefore, the quarterly offset for the plan investor is computed as
follows:
(.25)[($250).10% + ($250).10% + ($250).10%] = $0.1875 or $.19.
In the foregoing example, if the Plan investor elects to receive an invoice
directly, the Plan investor would be mailed a statement for its PACE Program
account on or about October 15, 1995. This statement would show the outside
fee to be charged for the calendar quarter October 1 through December 31, as
adjusted by subtracting the quarterly offset from the quarterly outside fee
as determined above. The net quarterly outside fee that would be paid to
PMAS would be determined as follows:
$3.75 - $.19 = $3.56.
The Plan investor that elects to receive an invoice directly would be asked
to pay the outside fee for that quarter within 30 days of the date
on which the statement was mailed (e.g., November 15, 1995). If the outside
fee were not paid by that date, PMAS would debit the account of the Plan
investor (as with other investors) for the amount
----------------------------------
(20) PaineWebber asserts that it chose 20 basis points as the maximum net fee
retained for management services rendered to the Portfolios because this amount
represents the lowest percentage management fee charged by PaineWebber among the
Portfolios (excluding the PACE Money Market Investments Portfolio for which a
fee of 15 basis points will be charged).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust
of the outside fee (pursuant to the authorization contained in the PACE
Program Investment Advisory Agreement, and as described in the PACE Program
Description appended to the Prospectus).(21) A Plan investor that elects to
have the outside fee debited from its account would receive, in November, a
statement as of October 31 reflecting the outside fee and the quarterly
offset therefrom.
Assuming the Plan investor's investment in and allocation among the
Portfolios remains constant throughout the quarter, (a) the Plan investor's
fees for the quarter for asset allocation and related services provided by
PMAS (net outside fee) and (b) the fees paid by the Portfolios for
investment management services provided by Mitchell Hutchins (inside fee)
would be as follows:
$3.56 (net outside fee)+(.25) [($50+$200+$250+$250+$250).20%]
(administrative services fee)+(.25)
[($50).15% + ($200).20% + ($250 + $250 + $250).30%] (inside fee) =
$4.74.
Assuming the Plan investor's investment in and allocation among the
Portfolios remains constant throughout the year, the total net outside fee
and inside fee borne by the Plan investor for the year would be as follows:
4 (($4.74) = $18.96 or 1.89% per $1,000 invested.
20. PaineWebber notes that a potential conflict may exist by reason of the
variance in retained inside fees between the different Portfolios. For
example, Mitchell Hutchins will retain a lower inside fee with respect to
assets invested in the PACE Money Market Investments Portfolio than all other
Portfolios. PaineWebber recognizes that this factor could result in the
recommendation of a higher fee-generating Portfolio to an investing Plan.
Nonetheless, PMAS will be subject to and intends to comply fully with the
standards of fiduciary duty that require that it act solely in the best
interest of the Plan when making investment recommendations.
21. The books of the Trust will be audited annually by independent, certified
public accountants selected by the Trustees and approved by the investors.
All investors will receive copies of an audited financial report no later
than sixty days after the close of each Trust fiscal year. All Trust
financial statements will be prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and relevant provisions of the federal securities laws.
The books and financial records of the Trust will be open for inspection by
any investor, including the Department, the Service and SEC, at all times
during regular business hours.
22. In summary, it is represented that the transactions will satisfy the
statutory criteria for an exemption under section 408(a) of the Act because:
(a) The investment of a Plan's assets in the PACE Program will be made and
approved by a Plan fiduciary or participant that is independent of
PaineWebber and its affiliates such that the Independent Fiduciary or
Directing Participant will maintain complete discretion with respect to
participating in the PACE Program.
(b) An Independent Fiduciary or Directing Participant will have full
discretion to redeem his or her shares in the Trust.
(c) No Plan will pay a fee or commission by reason of the acquisition or
redemption of shares in the Trust and PMAS nor will its affiliates
receive 12b-1 Fees in connection with the transactions.
(d) Prior to making an investment in the PACE Program, each Independent
Fiduciary or Directing Participant will receive offering materials and
disclosures from PMAS which disclose all material facts concerning the
purpose, fees, structure, operation, risks and participation in the PACE
Program.
(e) PMAS will provide written documentation to an Independent Fiduciary or
Directing Participant of its recommendations or evaluations based upon
objective criteria.
(f) With the exception of Mitchell Hutchins which will manage the PACE Money
Market Investments Portfolio, any Sub-Adviser appointed to exercise
investment discretion over a Portfolio will always be independent of
PaineWebber and its affiliates.
(g) The quarterly investment advisory fee that is paid by a Plan to PMAS for
investment advisory services rendered to such Plan will be offset by such
amount as is necessary to assure that Mitchell Hutchins retains 20 basis
points from any Portfolio (with the exception of the PACE Money Market
Investments Portfolio) on investment assets attributable to the Plan
investor. However, the quarterly fee paid to Mitchell Hutchins for
administrative services will be retained by Mitchell Hutchins and will
not be offset against the outside fee.
(h) Each participating Plan will receive copies of the Trust's semi-annual
and annual report which will include financial statements for the Trust
that have been prepared by independent, certified public accountants and
investment management fees paid by each Portfolio.
(i) On a quarterly and annual basis, PaineWebber will provide written
disclosures to an Independent Fiduciary or, if applicable, Directing
Participant, with respect to (1) the total, expressed in dollars,
----------------------------------
(21) PaineWebber explains that the foregoing example illustrates the fact that
Plan investors will get the benefit of the fee offset contemporaneously upon the
payment of the outside fee. Because the inside fee is paid monthly and the fee
offset is computed quarterly, the applicants also explain that PMAS does not
receive the benefit of a "float" as a result of such calculations because the
fee offset will always be realized no later than the time that the outside fee
is paid. Since the inside fee is paid at the end of each calendar month, the
applicants further explain that Plan investors will realize the full benefit of
the offset before the time that the inside fee is paid for the second and third
months of the calendar quarter.

ACTION: GRANT OF INDIVIDUAL EXEMPTIONS.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document contains exemptions issued by the Department of Labor
(the Department) from certain of the prohibited transaction restrictions of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (the Act) and/or the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 (the Code).
Notices were published in the FEDERAL REGISTER of the pendency before the
Department of proposals to grant such exemptions. The notices set forth a
summary of facts and representations contained in each application for exemption
and referred interested persons to the respective applications for a complete
statement of the facts and representations. The applications have been available
for public inspection at the Department in Washington, D.C. The notices also
invited interested persons to submit comments on the requested exemptions to the
Department. In addition the notices stated that any interested person might
submit a written request that a public hearing be held (where appropriate). The
applicants have represented that they have complied with the requirements of the
notification to interested persons. No public comments and no requests for a
hearing, unless otherwise stated, were received by the Department.
The notices of proposed exemption were issued and the exemptions are being
granted solely by the Department because, effective December 31, 1978, section
102 of Reorganization Plan No. 4 of 1978 (43 FR 47713, October 17, 1978)
transferred the authority of the Secretary of the Treasury to issue exemptions
of the type proposed to the Secretary of Labor.
STATUTORY FINDINGS
In accordance with section 408(a) of the Act and/or section 4975(c)(2) of the
Code and the procedures set forth in 29 CFR Part 2570, Subpart B (55 FR 32836,
32847, August 10, 1990) and based upon the entire record, the Department makes
the following findings:
(a) The exemptions are administratively feasible;
(b) They are in the interests of the plans and their participants and
beneficiaries; and
(c) They are protective of the rights of the participants and beneficiaries of
the plans.

WRITTEN COMMENTS
The Department received one written comment with respect to the Notice and no
requests for a public hearing. The comment was submitted by PaineWebber, PMAS
and Mitchell Hutchins (collectively, the Applicants). Their comment is broken
down into the areas discussed below.
(1) SECTION 403(b) PLAN PARTICIPATION. In addition to IRAs, Keogh Plans, Section
404(c) Plans and other types of employee benefit plans that will participate
in the PACE Program, the Applicants represent that they wish to offer shares
in the Trust to Plans that are described in section 403(b) of the Code.
Therefore, the Applicants have requested that the Department include
references to Section 403(b) Plans in the exemptive language set forth in
Section I, in the conditional

PaineWebber PACE Select Advisors Trust
language set forth in Sections II(j)(3) and III(d)(1) and in Representation 6
of the Summary of Facts and Representations (the Summary). The Department has
revised the Notice accordingly.
(2) AVAILABLE PORTFOLIOS. Section II(g) of the Notice states that PMAS will
provide investment advice in writing to an Independent Fiduciary or a
Directing Participant with respect to all available Portfolios offered by the
Trust. The Applicants note, however, that, in the case of a Section
404(c) Plan, an Independent Fiduciary will determine the initial array of
Portfolios among which the Directing Participants may allocate Plan assets,
and that such fiduciary may decide to include less than all of the Portfolios
in that array. Therefore, the Applicants have requested that the Department
revise Section II(g) of the Notice as follows to make it clear that
"available" Portfolios are those that will be selected by the Independent
Fiduciary under such circumstances:
(g) PMAS provides investment advice in writing to an Independent Fiduciary or
Directing Participant with respect to all Portfolios made available under the
Plan.
The Department has made the change requested by the Applicants.
(3) INDEPENDENT FIDUCIARY ROLE. With respect to a Section 404(c) Plan,
Section II(j)(4) of the Notice states that written acknowledgement of the
receipt of initial disclosures from PaineWebber will be provided by the
Independent Fiduciary who may be the Plan administrator, trustee,
investment manager or the named fiduciary, as the record holder of Trust
shares. The Applicants wish to clarify that because the trustee of a
trust is generally the legal owner of trust assets, the Plan trustee
rather than the Independent Fiduciary is the actual recordholder of Trust
shares. Therefore, the Applicants request that the Department revise
Section II(j)(4) of the Notice to read as follows:
(4) With respect to a Section 404(c) Plan, written acknowledgement of the
receipt of such documents is provided by the Independent Fiduciary (i.e.,
the Plan administrator, trustee, investment manager or named fiduciary).
The Department has amended the Notice in this regard.
(4) DIRECTING PARTICIPANT DISCLOSURE. Section II(1) of the Notice states, in
relevant part, that if an Independent Fiduciary of a Section 404(c) Plan
has established an Undisclosed Account with PaineWebber, certain
disclosures will be provided by PaineWebber to the Directing Participants
or to the Independent Fiduciary for dissemination to the Directing
Participants, depending upon the arrangement negotiated with PMAS. In an
effort to reflect the manner in which that information will be
distributed or made available to Directing Participants and/or to the
Independent Fiduciaries of Section 404(c) Plans, the Applicants request
that the Department modify Section II(l) of the Notice.
The Department has amended Section II(1) of the Notice to read as follows:
(1) In the case of a Section 404(c) Plan where the Independent Fiduciary has
established an omnibus account in the name of the Plan (the Undisclosed
Account) with PaineWebber, depending upon the arrangement negotiated by the
Independent Fiduciary with PMAS, certain of the information noted above in
subparagraphs (k)(1) through (k)(7) of this Section II may be provided by
PaineWebber to the Directing Participants or to the Independent Fiduciary for
dissemination to the Directing Participants.
(5) DESCRIPTION OF PAINEWEBBER GROUP AND PAINEWEBBER. Representation
1(a) of the Summary, states, in part, that the PaineWebber Group is a
member of all principal securities and commodities exchanges in the
United States and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. It
is also represented that PaineWebber Group holds memberships or associate
memberships on several principal foreign securities and commodities
exchanges. Although the Applicants furnished this information to the
Department, they wish to clarify that these representations pertain to
PaineWebber rather than to the Paine Webber Group. Therefore, they
request that the Department make appropriate changes to the Summary.
The Department has revised the language in Representation 1(b) of the
Summary as follows:
PaineWebber is a member of all principal securities and commodities
exchanges in the United States and the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. It also holds memberships or associate memberships on several
principal foreign securities and commodities exchanges.
(6) NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE. In pertinent part, Representation 2 of the
Summary states that with the exception of the PACE Money Market
Investments Portfolio, shares in the Trust were initially offered to the
public by PaineWebber at a net asset value of $10 per share and that
shares in the PACE Money Market Investments Portfolio are being offered
to the public at a net asset value of $1.00 per share. The Applicants
wish to clarify that with the exception of the PACE Money Market
Investments Portfolio in which shares are offered to the public at a net
asset value of $1.00 per share, shares in the other Portfolios were
initially offered to the public at a net asset value of $12 per share.
Accordingly, the Department has revised the sixth and seventh sentences of
Representation 2 to read as follows:
With the exception of the PACE Money Market Investments Portfolio, shares in
each of the Portfolios were initially offered to the public at a net asset value
of $12 per share. Shares in the PACE Money Market Investments Portfolio are
offered to the public at a net asset value of $1.00 per share.

(7) MINIMUM INVESTMENTS. The second paragraph of Representation 3 of the Summary
states, in part, that the minimum initial investment for a prospective
investor in the PACE Program is $10,000. The Applicants note, however, that
the minimum initial investment threshold for an investor is currently $25,000
and not $10,000. For Plan investors and Uniform Gift or Transfer to Minors
Accounts, the Applicants wish to clarify that the minimum initial investment
is presently $10,000.
The Department has revised part of Representation 3 to read as follows:
*** The minimum initial investment in the PACE Program currently is $25,000
(except for Plans and Uniform Gift or Transfer to Minors Accounts, for
which the minimum initial investment is currently $10,000).
(8) VALUATION OF PORTFOLIO SHARES. Footnote 10 of the Summary states, in part,
that the net asset value of shares in the PACE Money Market Investments
Portfolio is determined as of 12 p.m. each business day. To indicate that the
net asset value of all Portfolio shares, including shares of the PACE Money
Market Investments Portfolio, is being determined as of the close of regular
trading on the New York Stock Exchange (currently 4 p.m., Eastern Time) each
business day, the Applicants request that the Department modify Footnote 10
of the Summary.
The Department has modified Footnote 10 to read as follows:
The net asset value of each Portfolio's shares is determined as of the close
of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE) (currently,
4 p.m., Eastern Time) each business day. Each Portfolio's net asset value per
share is determined by dividing the value of the securities held by the
Portfolio plus any cash or other assets minus all liabilities by the total
number of Portfolio shares outstanding.
In addition, the Applicants have requested that Footnote 16 of the Summary
be revised to incorporate the following language:
*** The net asset value of each Portfolio's shares is determined as of the
close of regular trading on the NYSE (currently, 4 p.m. Eastern Time)
each business day. PaineWebber may, in the future, impose a minimum
dollar threshold on rebalancing transactions in order to avoid DE
MINIMUS transactions.
(9) PAYMENT OF REDEMPTION PROCEEDS. Representation 14 of the Summary states, in
part, that a Portfolio will be required to transmit redemption proceeds for
credit to an investor's account within 5 business days after receipt.
Similarly, Representation 17 of the Summary sets forth the same time frame
for the payment of the outside fee as well as the applicable fee if
additional funds are invested during a calendar quarter. Because Federal
Securities laws currently require PaineWebber to settle its obligations
within three business days, the Applicants have requested that the
Department revise the Summary to reflect the current timing of such payments.
The Department does not object to these necessary revisions and has deleted
references to the five business day requirement and inserted the phrase "three
business days" in the fourth sentence of paragraph one of Representation 14, in
the first sentence of paragraph two of Representation 17 and in the first
sentence of paragraph three of Representation 17.
(10) BROKERAGE COMMISSION INFORMATION. Representation 22(i)
of the Summary states, in part, that on a quarterly and annual basis,
PaineWebber will provide written disclosures to an Independent Fiduciary or,
if applicable, a Directing Participant regarding brokerage commissions that
are paid to PaineWebber and/or its affiliates or to unrelated parties. The
Applicants have requested that the Department revise this representation to
reflect that brokerage commission information will be provided to the
Independent Fiduciary and, depending on the arrangement negotiated between
the Independent Fiduciary of a Section 404(c) Plan and PMAS, to a Directing
Participant. The Applicants state that the language set forth in the Summary
appears to indicate that PaineWebber will provide such information under all
circumstances to Independent Fiduciaries and where applicable, to Directing
Participants only.
The Department has revised paragraph (i) of Representation 22 to read, in
part, as follows:
(i) On a quarterly and annual basis, PaineWebber will provide written
disclosures to an Independent Fiduciary and, depending on the arrangement
negotiated with PMAS, a Directing Participant, with respect to (1) the total,
expressed in dollars, of each Portfolio's brokerage commissions that are paid
to PaineWebber and its affiliates;***
After giving full consideration to the entire record, the Department has
decided to grant the exemption subject to the modifications or clarifications
described above. The Applicants' comment letter has been included as part of the
public record of the exemption application. The complete application file,
including all supplemental submissions received by the Department, is made
available for public inspection in the Public Documents Room of the Pension and
Welfare Benefits Administration, Room N-5638, U.S. Department of Labor, 200
Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20210.
