UBS Global AM has entered into a Management Agreement dated April 1, 2006 ("Management Agreement"), with UBS PACE Select Advisors Trust (formerly known as Managed Accounts Services Portfolio Trust ("Trust")), an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), with respect to UBS PACE Alternative Strategies Investments ("Portfolio").
UBS Global AM further authorizes the Sub-Adviser and its Affiliated Broker-Dealers to execute agency cross transactions (the "Cross Transactions") on behalf of the Portfolio and the Trust. Cross Transactions are transactions which may be effected by the Affiliated Broker-Dealers acting for both the Portfolio or the Trust and the counterparty to the transaction. Cross Transactions enable the Sub-Adviser to purchase or sell a block of securities for the Portfolio or the Trust at a set price and possibly avoid an unfavorable price movement that may be created through entrance into the market with such purchase or sale order. As such, the Sub-Adviser believes that Cross Transactions can provide meaningful benefits for the Portfolio and the Trust and its clients generally. UBS Global AM, the Portfolio and the Trust should be aware, however, that in a Cross Transaction an Affiliated Broker-Dealer will be receiving commissions from both sides of the trade and, therefore, there is a potentially conflicting division of loyalties and responsibilities.
UBS Global AM hereby appoints the Sub-Adviser as an investment sub-adviser with respect to the Portfolio for the period and on the terms set forth in this Agreement. The Sub-Adviser accepts that appointment and agrees to render the services herein set forth, for the compensation herein provided.

The foregoing representations and warranties shall be continuing during the term of this Sub-Advisory Agreement.
