Exhibit No.4
INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND ADMINISTRATION CONTRACT
Contract made as of March 1, 1989, between PAINEWEBBER OLYMPUS FUND, a
Massachusetts business trust ("Trust"), and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ASSET MANAGEMENT
INC. ("▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇"), a Delaware corporation registered as a broker-dealer
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("1934 Act"), and as an
investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended.
WHEREAS the Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company, and
intends to offer for public sale distinct series of shares of beneficial
interest ("Series"), each corresponding to a distinct portfolio; and
WHEREAS the Trust desires to retain ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ as investment
adviser and administrator to furnish certain administrative, investment advisory
and portfolio management services to the Trust and each Series as now exists and
as hereafter may be established, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is willing to furnish
such services;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants
herein contained, it is agreed between the parties hereto as follows:
1. Appointment. The Trust hereby appoints ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ as
investment adviser and administrator of the Trust and each Series for the period
and on the terms set forth in this Contract. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ accepts such
appointment and agrees to render the services herein set forth, for the
compensation herein provided.
2. Duties as Investment Adviser.
(a) Subject to the supervision of the Trust's Board of Trustees
("Board"), ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will provide a continuous investment program for
each Series, including investment research and management with respect to all
securities and investments and cash equivalents in each Series. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will determine from time to time what securities and other investments
will be purchased, retained or sold by each Series.
(b) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that in placing orders with brokers and
dealers, it will attempt to obtain the best net result in terms of price and
execution; provided that, on behalf of any Series, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ may, in its
discretion, purchase and sell portfolio securities to and from brokers and
dealers who provide the Series with research, analysis, advice and similar
services, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ may pay to those brokers and dealers, in return
for research and analysis, a higher commission or spread than may be charged by
other brokers and dealers,
subject to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' determining in good faith that such commission or
spread is reasonable in terms either of the particular transaction or of the
overall responsibility of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to such Series and its other clients
and that the total commissions or spreads paid by such Series will be reasonable
in relation to the benefits to the Series over the long term. In no instance
will portfolio securities be purchased from or sold to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, or any
affiliated person thereof, except in accordance with the federal securities laws
and the rules and regulations thereunder. Whenever ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
simultaneously places orders to purchase or sell the same security on behalf of
a Series and one or more other accounts advised by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, such
orders will be allocated as to price and amount among all such accounts in a
manner believed to be equitable to each account. The Trust recognizes that in
some cases this procedure may adversely affect the results obtained for the
Series.
(c) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will oversee the maintenance of all books and
records with respect to the securities transactions of each Series, and will
furnish the Board with such periodic and special reports as the Board reasonably
may request. In compliance with the requirements of Rule 31a-3 under the 1940
Act, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ hereby agrees that all records which it maintains for the
Trust are the property of the Trust, agrees to preserve for the periods
prescribed by Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act any records which it maintains for
the Trust and which are required to be maintained by Rule 3la-1 under the 1940
Act, and further agrees to surrender promptly to the Trust any records which it
maintains for the Trust upon request by the Trust.
(d) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will oversee the computation of the net asset
value and the net income of each Series as described in the currently effective
registration statement of the Trust under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and 1940 Act and any supplements thereto ("Registration Statement") or
as more frequently requested by the Board.
(e) The Trust hereby authorizes ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and any entity or
person associated with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ which is a member of a national
securities exchange to effect any transaction on such exchange for the account
of any Series, which transaction is permitted by Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act
and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder, and the Trust hereby consents to the retention of
compensation by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or person or entity associated with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for such transactions in accordance with Rule 11a2-2(T)(a)(2)(iv).
3. Duties as Administrator. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will administer the
affairs of the Trust and each Series subject to the supervision of the Board and
the following understandings:
(a) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will supervise all aspects of the operations of
the Trust and each Series, including the oversight of transfer agency, custodial
and accounting services, except as hereinafter set forth; provided, however,
that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve or deprive the Board of
its responsibility for and control of the conduct of the affairs of the Trust
and each Series.
(b) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will provide the Trust and each Series with such
corporate, administrative and clerical personnel (including officers of the
Trust) and services as are
-2-

of certain books and records of the Trust and each Series.
(c) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will arrange, but not pay, for the periodic
preparation, updating, filing and dissemination (as applicable) of the Trust's
Registration Statement, proxy material, tax returns and required reports to each
Series' shareholders and the Securities and Exchange Commission and other
appropriate federal or state regulatory authorities.
(d) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will provide the Trust and each Series with, or
obtain for it, adequate office space and all necessary office equipment and
services, including telephone service, heat, utilities, stationery supplies and
similar items.
(e) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will provide the Board on a regular basis with
economic and investment analyses and reports and make available to the Board
upon request any economic, statistical and investment services normally
available to institutional or other customers of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.

Contract, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will act in conformity with the Declaration of

Contract imposes on the sub-adviser or sub-administrator bound thereby all the
duties and conditions to which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is subject by Paragraph 2, 3
and 4 of this Contract, and further provided that each Sub-Advisory or
Sub-Administration Contract meets all requirements of the 1940 Act and rules
thereunder.
6. Services Not Exclusive. The services furnished by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
hereunder are not to be deemed exclusive and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be free to

changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in

13. Governing Law. This Contract shall be construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of Delaware and the 1940 Act, provided, however, that
Section 10 above will be construed in accordance with the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. To the extent that the applicable laws of the
State of Delaware or the Commonwealth of Massachusetts conflict with the
applicable provisions of the 1940 Act, the latter shall control.
14. Miscellaneous. The captions in this Contract are included for
convenience of reference only and in no way define or delimit any of the
provisions hereof or otherwise affect
-6-
their construction or effect. If any provision of this Contract shall be held or
made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of
this Contract shall not be affected thereby. This Contract shall be binding upon

effect of a requirement of the 1940 Act reflected in any provision of this
Contract is relaxed by a rule, regulation or order of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, whether of special or general application, such provision
shall be deemed to incorporate the effect of such rule, regulation or order.
