UBS AM is contractually obligated to waive all or a portion of its investment management and administration fees and/or to reimburse the funds for certain operating expenses in order to maintain the total annual operating expenses of each class (excluding expenses attributable to (1) dividend expense, borrowing costs and interest expense relating to short sales, and (2) investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, expenses related to shareholders' meetings and extraordinary expenses) through November 30, 2021 (or through November 30, 2022 in the case of PACE Strategic Fixed Income Investments and PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments) at a level not to exceed certain specified amounts. Each fund will repay UBS AM for any such waived fees/reimbursed expenses during the three-year period following the period during which UBS AM waived fees or reimbursed expenses, to the extent that repayment can be made without causing the operating expenses of the fund or class during a year in which repayment is made to exceed these expense caps.
