EX-99.77D POLICIES 3 tuf77d.txt INVESTMENT POLICY UPDATES Exhibit 77D For period ending June 30, 2002 File number 811-6637 Investment Policy Changes Pursuant to unanimous written consent of the Board of Trustees, effective June 28, 2002, UBS Global Allocation Fund (formerly, UBS Global Balanced Fund), adopted a policy that, under normal circumstances, the Fund will allocate its assets between fixed income securities and equity securities. At its meeting on March 18, 2002, the Board of Trustees approved modifications to certain Fund's investment policies, as indicated below, to comply with Rule 35d-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Rule"). The Rule generally requires a fund with a name suggesting that it focuses on a particular type of investment to invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) in the type of investment suggested by its name. The investment policy changes became effective on April 8, 2002. Each Fund's new 80% policy has been adopted as a "non-fundamental" investment policy. This means that this investment policy may be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval. However, each Fund has also adopted a policy to provide its shareholders with at least 60 days' prior written notice of any change to its 80% investment policy. The Fund will interpret these new policies as if the following phrase appeared immediately after the words "net assets": (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes)." If, subsequent to an investment, a Fund's 80% policy is no longer met (e.g., a fund receives a very large influx of cash to invest from new shareholders), then under normal circumstances, the Fund's future investments would be made in a manner that would bring the Fund's investments back in line with the 80% threshold. * UBS U.S. Bond Fund adopted a non-fundamental policy that under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's net assets will be invested in U.S. fixed income securities. * UBS U.S. Balanced Fund adopted a non-fundamental policy that under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's net assets will be invested in U.S. securities. * UBS U.S. Equity Fund adopted a non-fundamental policy that under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's net assets will be invested in U.S. equity securities.
