Washington, D.C. 20549-0505 Re: The UBS Funds - CIK No. 0000886244 Request for Withdrawal of Amendment to Registration Statement on Form N-1A File Nos. 033-47287 and 811-06637 Ladies and Gentlemen: Pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), submitted electronically via the EDGAR system, please consider this correspondence as an application to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") for the withdrawal by The UBS Funds (the "Registrant") of Post-Effective Amendment No. 49/50 (the "Amendment") to its Registration Statement on Form N-1A, which was filed with the SEC on March 1, 2006 (Accession Number 0001308012-06-000015). The Amendment had been submitted pursuant to Rule 485(a) under the 1933 Act, solely to add to the registration statement of the Registrant materials to be used in connection with a rescission offer to be made to certain shareholders of the Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the UBS U.S. Bond Fund, UBS High Yield Fund, UBS U.S. Large Cap Equity Fund, UBS U.S. Large Cap Value Equity Fund, UBS U.S. Large Cap Growth Fund, UBS U.S. Small Cap Growth Fund, UBS Global Allocation Fund, UBS Global Equity Fund, UBS Global Bond Fund and UBS International Equity Fund series of shares of the Registrant (the "Rescission Offer"). Subsequent to the filing of the Amendment with the SEC, as the result of discussions our counsel had with the staff of the SEC, it was determined that the Registrant would submit the Rescission Offer documents as SEC correspondence and withdraw the Amendment. No securities were sold in connection with the Amendment and the Amendment has not become effective. Based upon the foregoing, the Registrant respectfully submits that such a withdrawal would be consistent with the public interest and the protection of investors. The Registrant requests that, in accordance with the provisions of Rule 477 under the 1933 Act, the SEC accept this application for withdrawal of the Amendment. Please direct any questions or comments relating to this filing to me at the above-referenced telephone number or, in my absence, to Jana L. Cresswell, Esquire at (215) 564-8048. Sincerely, THE UBS FUNDS By: /s/Mark F. Kemper Name: Mark F. Kemper Title: Vice President and Secretary
