SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT
Agreement dated as of October 1, 2016 between
UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM"),
a Delaware corporation, and Analytic Investors, LLC
("Sub- Adviser"), a Delaware Limited Liability
Company company (the "Agreement").
RECITALS
(1) UBS AM has entered into a Management
Agreement dated as of August 1, 2008
("Management Agreement"), with PACE(r) Select
Advisors Trust ("Trust"), an open-end management
investment company registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), with
respect to PACE(r) Alternative Strategies Investments
("Portfolio"); and
(2) UBS AM is authorized to retain one or more sub-
advisers to furnish certain investment advisory
services to UBS AM and the Portfolio;
(3) UBS AM desires to retain the Sub-Adviser to
furnish certain investment advisory services to UBS
AM and the Portfolio or a designated portion of the
assets ("Segment") of the Portfolio; and
(4) The Sub-Adviser is willing to furnish such services;
Now therefore, in consideration of the premises and
mutual covenants herein contained, UBS AM and the
Sub-Adviser agree as follows:
1. Appointment. UBS AM hereby appoints the Sub-
Adviser as an investment sub-adviser with respect to
the Portfolio or Segment 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.
2. Duties as Sub-Adviser.
(a) Subject to the supervision and direction of the
Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board") and review by
UBS AM, and any written guidelines adopted by the
Board or UBS AM the Sub-Adviser will provide a
continuous investment program for the Portfolio or
Segment, including investment research and
discretionary management with respect to all
securities and investments and cash equivalents in the
Portfolio or Segment. The Sub-Adviser will determine
from time to time what investments will be purchased,
retained or sold by the Portfolio or Segment. The
Sub-Adviser will be responsible for placing purchase
and sell orders for investments and for other related
transactions for the Portfolio or Segment. The Sub-
Adviser understands that the Portfolio's assets need
to be managed so as to permit the Portfolio to qualify
or to continue to qualify as a regulated investment
company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue
Code, as amended ("Code"). The Sub-Adviser will
provide services under this Agreement in accordance
with the Portfolio's investment objective, policies and
restrictions as stated in the Trust's currently effective
registration statement under the 1940 Act, and any
amendments or supplements thereto ("Registration
Statement"). The Sub-Adviser, on each business day,
shall provide UBS AM and the Trust's custodian such
information as UBS AM and the Trust's custodian may
reasonably request relating to all transactions
concerning the Portfolio or Segment.
UBS AM hereby designates and appoints the Sub-
Adviser as its and the Portfolio's limited purpose
agent and attorney-in-fact, without further prior
approval of UBS AM (except as expressly provided for
herein or as may be required by law) to make and
execute, in the name and on behalf of the Portfolio, all
agreements, instruments and other documents and to
take all such other action which the Sub-Adviser
considers necessary or advisable to carry out its duties
hereunder. By way of example and not by way of
limitation, in connection with any purchase for the
Portfolio or Segment of securities or instruments that
are not registered under the U.S. Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), the Sub-
Adviser shall have the full power and authority,
among other things, to: (i) commit to purchase such
securities for the Portfolio on the terms and
conditions under which such securities are offered; (ii)
execute such account opening and other agreements,
instruments and documents (including, without
limitation, purchase agreements, subscription
documents, ISDA and other swap and derivative
documents), and make such commitments, as may be
required in connection with the purchase and sale of
such securities or instruments; (iii) represent that the
Portfolio is an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule
501 (a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act and a
"Qualified Institutional Buyer" as defined in Rule 144A
(a) (1) (i) under the Securities Act; and (iv) commit that
such securities will not be offered or sold by the
Portfolio except in compliance with the registration
requirements of the Securities Act or an exemption
therefrom. This power-of-attorney is a continuing
power-of-attorney and shall remain in full force and
effect until revoked by UBS AM or the Trust in writing,
but any such revocation shall not affect any
transaction initiated prior to receipt by the Sub-
Adviser of such notice.
When investing in non-US securities, the Sub-Advisor
is responsible for identifying and complying with all
applicable laws and regulations of the jurisdiction in
which the security is traded. The Sub-Advisor shall use
the degree of care, diligence and skill that a
reasonably prudent investment manager would
exercise under the circumstances not to establish or
add to existing positions in securities that are subject
to any applicable foreign ownership limits or levels
("FOL'') at a time when it is reasonably foreseeable
that such purchases will have to be sold due to FOL
limits or levels.
(b) The Sub-Adviser agrees that it will not consult
with any other sub-adviser ("Other Sub-Adviser") for
the Trust or Portfolio concerning any transaction by
the Portfolio or Segment in securities or other assets,
including (i) the purchase by the Portfolio or Segment
of a security issued by the Other Sub-Adviser, or an
affiliate of the Other Sub-Adviser, to the Trust or
Portfolio except as permitted by the 1940 Act or (ii)
transactions by the Portfolio or Segment in any
security for which the Other Sub-Adviser, or its
affiliate, is the principal underwriter.
(c) Unless otherwise instructed by UBS AM or the
Trust, the Sub-Adviser agrees that it will be
responsible for voting proxies of issuers of securities
held by the Portfolio or Segment. The Sub-Adviser
further agrees that it will adopt written proxy voting
procedures that shall comply with the requirements of
the 1940 Act and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940,
as amended ("Advisers Act") ("Proxy Voting Policy"),
and that shall be acceptable to the Board. The Sub-
Adviser shall also provide its Proxy Voting Policy, and
if requested by UBS AM, a summary of such Proxy
Voting Policy for inclusion in the Trust's registration
statement, and will provide UBS AM with any material
amendment to the Proxy Voting Policy within a
reasonable time after such amendment has taken
effect. The Sub-Adviser further agrees that it will
provide the Board on or before August 1st of each
year, or more frequently as the Board may reasonably
request, with a written report of the proxies voted
during the most recent 12-month period ending June
30, or such other period as the Board may designate,
in a format that shall comply with the 1940 Act and
that shall be acceptable to the Board.
(d) The Sub-Adviser agrees that upon the request of
UBS AM or the Board, Sub-Adviser shall exercise the
rights incident to the securities held by the Portfolio
or Segment in the context of a bankruptcy or other
reorganization. The Sub-Adviser further agrees that it
will keep UBS AM fully informed about any such
actions that it intends to take.
(e) The Sub-Adviser agrees that it will place orders
with brokers in accordance with best execution
policies, taking into account best price as an
important factor in this decision, provided that, on
behalf of the Portfolio or Segment, the Sub-Adviser
may, in its discretion, use brokers that provide the
Sub-Adviser with research, analysis, advice and
similar services to execute portfolio transactions on
behalf of the Portfolio or Segment, and the Sub-
Adviser may pay to those brokers in return for
brokerage and research services a higher commission
than may be charged by other brokers, subject to the
Sub-Adviser's determination in good faith that such
commission is reasonable in terms either of the
particular transaction or of the overall responsibility of
the Sub-Adviser to the Portfolio or Segment and its
other clients and that the total commissions paid by
the Portfolio or Segment will be reasonable in relation
to the benefits to the Portfolio or Segment over the
long term. In no instance will portfolio securities be
purchased from or sold to UBS AM or the Sub-Adviser,
the Trust's principal underwriter, or any affiliated
person thereof, except in accordance with the federal
securities laws and the rules and regulations
thereunder. The Sub-Adviser may aggregate sales
and purchase orders with respect to the assets of the
Portfolio or Segment with similar orders being made
simultaneously for other accounts advised by the Sub-
Adviser or its affiliates. Whenever the Sub-Adviser
simultaneously places orders to purchase or sell the
same security on behalf of the Portfolio or Segment
and one or more other accounts advised by the Sub-
Adviser, the orders will be allocated as to price and
amount among all such accounts in a manner believed
to be equitable over time to each account. UBS AM
recognizes that in some cases this procedure may
adversely affect the results obtained for the Portfolio
or Segment.
Subject to the Sub-Adviser's obligations to seek best
execution, UBS AM agrees that the Sub-Adviser, in its
sole discretion, may place transactions on behalf of
the Portfolio or Segment and the Trust with any
broker-dealer deemed to be an affiliate (including
affiliated FCMs) of the Sub-Adviser (the "Affiliated
Broker-Dealers") so long as such transactions are
effected in conformity with the requirements
(including any applicable exemptions and
administrative interpretations set forth in Part 2A of
the Sub-Adviser's Form ADV Registration Statement
on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("Form ADV")) of Section 11(a)(1)(H) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934 Act"), and in
compliance with Rules 17e-1 or 10f-3 under the 1940
Act or other applicable rules and the Trust's policies
and procedures thereunder. In all such dealings, the
Affiliated Broker-Dealers shall be authorized and
entitled to retain any commissions, remuneration or
profits which may be made in such transactions and
shall not be liable to account for the same to UBS AM,
the Portfolio or the Trust. In the event Sub-Adviser
becomes affiliated (as deemed under the federal
securities laws) with a broker-dealer during the term
of this Agreement, Sub-Adviser shall obtain the
approval of the Trust's Board of Trustees prior to
commencement of transactions with such broker-
dealer on behalf of the Portfolio or the Trust.
UBS 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 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. Sub-Adviser
shall effect such Cross Transactions in compliance
with Rule 206(3)-2 under the Advisers Act, Rule 17a-7
under the 1940 Act, and any other applicable
provisions of the federal securities laws and shall
provide UBS AM with periodic reports describing such
agency cross transactions. UBS AM understands that
the authority of the Sub-Adviser to execute agency
Cross Transactions for the Portfolio is terminable at
will without penalty, effective upon receipt by the
Sub-Adviser of written notice from UBS AM, and that
the failure to terminate such authorization will result
in its continuation.
(f) The Sub-Adviser shall maintain separate detailed
records of all matters pertaining to the Portfolio or
Segment, including, without limitation, brokerage
and other records of all securities transactions. Any
records required to be maintained and preserved
pursuant to the provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-
2 promulgated under the 1940 Act that are prepared
or maintained by the Sub-Adviser on behalf of the
Trust are the property of the Trust and will be
surrendered promptly to the Trust upon request. The
Sub-Adviser further agrees to preserve for the periods
prescribed in
Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act the records required to
be maintained under Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act,
and will furnish the Board and UBS AM with such
periodic and special reports as the Board or UBS AM
may request.
(g) At such times as shall be reasonably requested by
the Board or UBS AM, the Sub-Adviser will provide
the Board and UBS AM with economic and
investment analyses and reports as well as quarterly
reports setting forth the performance of the Portfolio
or Segment and make available to the Board and UBS
AM any economic, statistical and investment services
that the Sub-Adviser normally makes available to its
institutional or other customers.
(h) In accordance with procedures adopted by the
Board, as amended from time to time, the Sub-
Adviser is responsible for assisting the Board and UBS
AM in the fair valuation of all portfolio securities in the
Portfolio or Segment and will use its reasonable
efforts to arrange for the provision of a price or prices
from one or more parties independent of the Sub-
Adviser for each portfolio security for which the
custodian does not obtain prices in the ordinary
course of business from an automated pricing service.
The Sub-Adviser also will provide such information or
perform such additional acts as are customarily
performed by a Sub-Adviser and may be required for
the Trust or UBS AM to comply with their respective
obligations under applicable federal securities laws,
including, without limitation, the
1940 Act, the Advisers Act, the 1934 Act, the
Securities Act, and any rule or regulation thereunder.
3. Further Duties. In all matters relating to the
performance of this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser will
seek to act in conformity with the Trust's Trust
Instrument, By-Laws and Registration Statement, the
Trust's policies and procedures for compliance by the
Trust with the Federal Securities Laws (as that term is
defined in Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act) provided to
the Sub-Adviser (together, the "Trust Compliance
Procedures") and with the written instructions and
written directions of the Board and UBS AM, and will
comply with the requirements of the 1940 Act, and
the Advisers Act, and the rules under each, the Code,
and all other federal and state laws and regulations
applicable to the Trust and the Portfolio. UBS AM
agrees to provide to the Sub-Adviser copies of the
Trust's Trust Instrument, By-Laws, Registration
Statement, Trust's Compliance Procedures, written
instructions and directions of the Board and UBS AM,
and any amendments or supplements to any of these
materials as soon as practicable after such materials
become available. UBS AM further agrees to identify
to the Sub-Adviser in writing any broker-dealers that
are affiliated with UBS AM (other than UBS Financial
Services Inc. and UBS Asset Management (US) Inc.).
In order to assist the Trust and the Trust's Chief
Compliance Officer (the "Trust CCO") to satisfy the
requirements contained in Rule 38a-1 under the 1940
Act, the Sub-Adviser shall provide to the Trust CCO:
(i) direct access to the Sub-Adviser's chief compliance
officer and/or other senior compliance
personnel, as reasonably requested by the Trust CCO;
(ii) quarterly reports confirming that the Sub-Adviser
has complied with the Trust Compliance Procedures
in managing the Portfolio or Segment; and (iii)
quarterly certifications that there were no Material
Compliance Matters (as that term is defined by Rule
38a-1(e)(2)) that arose under the Trust Compliance
Procedures that related to the Sub-Adviser's
management of the Portfolio or Segment.
The Sub-Adviser shall promptly provide the Trust CCO
with copies of: (i) the Sub-Adviser's policies and
procedures for compliance by the Sub-Adviser with
the Federal Securities Laws (together, the "Sub-
Adviser Compliance Procedures"), and (ii) any
material changes to the Sub-Adviser Compliance
Procedures. The Sub-Adviser shall cooperate fully
with the Trust CCO so as to facilitate the Trust CCO's
performance of the Trust CCO's responsibilities under
Rule 38a-1 to review, evaluate and report to the
Trust's Board on the operation of the Sub-Adviser
Compliance Procedures, and shall promptly report to
the Trust CCO any Material Compliance Matter arising
under the Sub-Adviser Compliance Procedures
involving the Portfolio or Segment. The Sub-Adviser
shall provide to the Trust CCO: (i) quarterly reports
confirming the Sub-Adviser's compliance with the
Sub-Adviser Compliance Procedures in managing the
Portfolio or Segment, and (ii) certifications that there
were no Material Compliance Matters involving the
Sub-Adviser that arose under the Sub-Adviser
Compliance Procedures that affected the Portfolio or
Segment. At least annually, the Sub-Adviser shall
provide a certification to the Trust CCO to the effect
that the Sub-Adviser has in place and has
implemented policies and procedures that are
reasonably designed to ensure compliance by the
Sub-Adviser with any applicable Federal Securities
Laws, subject to such interpretations as may be
contained in the Trust Compliance Procedures.
The Sub-Adviser will promptly provide UBS AM with
information (including information that is required to
be disclosed in the Trust's registration statement)
with respect to the portfolio managers responsible for
the Portfolio or Segment and any changes in the
portfolio managers responsible for the Portfolio or
Segment.
The Sub-Adviser will promptly notify UBS AM of any
pending investigation, material litigation,
administrative proceeding or any other significant
regulatory inquiry.
The Sub-Adviser will cooperate promptly and fully
with UBS AM and/or the Trust in responding to any
regulatory or compliance examinations or inspections
(including information requests) relating to the Trust,
the Portfolio or UBS AM brought by any
governmental or regulatory authorities having
appropriate jurisdiction (including, but not limited to,
the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")).
4. Expenses. During the term of this Agreement, the
Sub-Adviser will bear all expenses incurred by it in
connection with its services under this Agreement.
The Sub-Adviser shall not be responsible for any
expenses incurred by the Trust, the Portfolio or UBS
AM, except as otherwise specifically provided herein.
Upon request by UBS AM, Sub-Adviser agrees to
reimburse UBS AM or the Trust for costs associated
with generating and distributing any Registration
Statement (as defined herein) for when the Sub-
Adviser is given a copy of a draft of such Registration
Statement and fails to promptly disclose to UBS AM
facts then known to the Sub-Adviser or its personnel
that would require disclosure (or amendments to
disclosure) in the Fund's Registration Statement in
time for such disclosure or amendments to disclosure
to be included in such Registration Statement. The
Sub-Adviser shall bear all reasonable expenses of the
Trust, if any, arising out of an assignment or change in
control of the Sub-Adviser.
5. Compensation.
(a) For the services provided and the expenses
assumed by the Sub-Adviser pursuant to this
Agreement, UBS AM, not the Portfolio, will pay to the
Sub-Adviser a fee, computed daily and payable
monthly, at an annual rate of ___% of the average
daily net assets of the Portfolio or Segment allocated
to its management (computed in the manner
specified in the Management Agreement), and will
provide the Sub-Adviser with a schedule showing the
manner in which the fee was computed. If the Sub-
Adviser is managing a Segment, its fees will be based
on the value of the assets of the Portfolio within the
Sub-Adviser's Segment.
(b) The fee shall be accrued daily and payable
monthly to the Sub-Adviser on or before the last
business day of the next succeeding calendar month.
(c) For those periods in which UBS AM has agreed to
waive all or a portion of its management fee, UBS AM
may ask the Sub-Adviser to waive the same
proportion of its fees, but the Sub-Adviser is under no
obligation to do so.
(d) If this Agreement becomes effective or terminates
before the end of any month, the fee for the period
from the effective date to the end of the month or
from the beginning of such month to the date of
termination, as the case may be, shall be pro-rated
according to the proportion which such period bears
to the full month in that such effectiveness or
termination occurs.
6. Limitation of Liability.
(a) The Sub-Adviser shall not be liable for any error of
judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by
the Portfolio, the Trust or its shareholders or by UBS
AM in connection with the matters to which this
Agreement relates, except a loss resulting from willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence on its part in the
performance of its duties or from reckless disregard
by it of its obligations and duties under this
Agreement.
(b) In no event will the Sub-Adviser have any
responsibility for any other portfolio of the Trust, for
any portion of the Portfolio not managed by the Sub-
Adviser or for the acts or omissions of any Other Sub-
Adviser to the Trust or Portfolio. In particular, in the
event the Sub-Adviser shall manage only a Segment
of the Portfolio, the Sub-Adviser shall have no
responsibility for the Portfolio's being in violation of
any applicable law or regulation or investment policy
or restriction applicable to the Portfolio as a whole or
for the Portfolio's failing to qualify as a regulated
investment company under the Code, if the securities
and other holdings of the Segment of the Portfolio
managed by the
Sub-Adviser are such that such Segment would not be
in such violation or fail to so qualify if such Segment
were deemed a separate series of the Trust or a
separate regulated investment company under the
Code, unless such violation was due to the Sub-
Advisers failure to comply with written guidelines
adopted by the Board or UBS AM and provided to the
Sub-Adviser.
Nothing in this section shall be deemed a limitation or
waiver of any obligation or duty that may not by law
be limited or waived.
7. Representations of Sub-Adviser. The Sub-Adviser
represents, warrants and agrees as follows:

8. Services Not Exclusive. The services furnished by
the Sub-Adviser hereunder are not to be deemed
exclusive, and except as the Sub-Adviser may
otherwise agree in writing, the Sub-Adviser shall be
free to furnish similar services to others so long as its
services under this Agreement are not impaired
thereby. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit or
restrict the right of any director, officer or employee
of the Sub-Adviser, who may also be a trustee, officer
or employee of the Trust, to engage in any other

part to the management or other aspects of any other

9. Duration and Termination.
(a) This Agreement shall become effective upon the

resulting in a change in control, provided that this

interested persons of any such party ("Independent
