Rhea-AI Filing Summary

UBS AG filed a Rule 424(b)(2) pricing supplement on 23 June 2025 for a $2.45 million offering of Trigger Autocallable Yield Notes linked to the common stock of Constellation Energy Corporation (CEG). The three-year notes settle on 26 June 2025 and mature on 28 June 2028, unless automatically called earlier.

The securities pay a fixed 10.60 % per-annum coupon (paid quarterly) regardless of the underlying’s performance until they are called. Starting after 12 months, UBS will automatically call the notes on any quarterly observation date if CEG’s closing price is at or above the Call Threshold of 100 % of the $315.21 Initial Level. Upon call, investors receive par plus the current coupon, and no further payments are made.

If not called, principal repayment is contingent. At maturity:

  • If the Final Level is ≥ the Downside Threshold of 50 % of the Initial Level ($157.61), investors receive 100 % of principal.
  • If the Final Level is < the Downside Threshold, repayment equals principal reduced by the full percentage decline in CEG, exposing holders to uncapped downside and potential total loss.

The notes are unsubordinated, unsecured obligations of UBS AG and carry both market risk linked to CEG and credit risk of UBS. They will not be listed on any exchange, and UBS does not intend to maintain a secondary market. The estimated initial value is $963.20, implying a 3.68 % structuring/placement cost versus the $1,000 issue price. UBS Securities LLC receives a $27.80 underwriting discount per note, re-allowed in full to third-party dealers.

Key dates: quarterly coupons & observation dates; Final Valuation – 23 June 2028; Maturity – 28 June 2028.

Principal risks detailed in the filing include potential loss of principal below the downside threshold, lack of upside participation, limited liquidity, price volatility, and issuer credit risk. Investors must be comfortable with the product’s complexity and the possibility of losing their entire investment.

In caso di richiamo, gli investitori ricevono il valore nominale più la cedola corrente, senza ulteriori pagamenti.

Se non richiamate, il rimborso del capitale dipende dalle condizioni. Alla scadenza:

Non saranno quotate in alcun mercato e UBS non intende mantenere un mercato secondario. Il valore iniziale stimato è di 963,20 $, implicando un costo di strutturazione/placement del 3,68% rispetto al prezzo di emissione di 1.000 $.

Date chiave: cedole trimestrali e date di osservazione; valutazione finale – 23 giugno 2028; scadenza – 28 giugno 2028.

UBS AG reichte am 23. Juni 2025 einen Preiszusatz gemäß Regel 424(b)(2) für ein Angebot von 2,45 Millionen US-Dollar an Trigger Autocallable Yield Notes ein, die an die Stammaktien von Constellation Energy Corporation (CEG) gekoppelt sind. Die dreijährigen Notes werden am 26. Juni 2025 abgerechnet und laufen am 28. Juni 2028 aus, sofern sie nicht früher automatisch zurückgerufen werden.

Die Wertpapiere zahlen einen festen 10,60 % Jahreskupon (vierteljährlich), unabhängig von der Entwicklung des Basiswerts bis zum Rückruf. Ab 12 Monaten ruft UBS die Notes an jedem quartalsweisen Beobachtungstag automatisch zurück, wenn der Schlusskurs von CEG den Call-Schwellenwert von 100 % des Anfangswerts von 315,21 $ erreicht oder übersteigt. Bei Rückruf erhalten Anleger den Nennwert plus den aktuellen Kupon, weitere Zahlungen entfallen.

Wenn nicht zurückgerufen, ist die Rückzahlung des Kapitals abhängig. Zum Laufzeitende:

  • Liegt der Endwert ≥ dem Downside-Schwellenwert von 50 % des Anfangswerts (157,61 $), erhalten Anleger 100 % des Kapitals.
  • Liegt der Endwert unter dem Downside-Schwellenwert, entspricht die Rückzahlung dem Kapital abzüglich des prozentualen Kursverlusts von CEG, wodurch Anleger einem unbegrenzten Abwärtsrisiko und einem Totalverlust ausgesetzt sind.

Die Notes sind untersubordinierte, unbesicherte Verbindlichkeiten von UBS AG und tragen sowohl Marktrisiko in Bezug auf CEG als auch Kreditrisiko von UBS. Sie werden nicht an einer Börse notiert und UBS beabsichtigt nicht, einen Sekundärmarkt zu unterhalten. Der geschätzte Anfangswert liegt bei 963,20 $, was Kosten für Strukturierung/Platzierung von 3,68 % gegenüber dem Ausgabepreis von 1.000 $ impliziert. UBS Securities LLC erhält einen Underwriting-Abschlag von 27,80 $ pro Note, der vollständig an Drittanbieter weitergereicht wird.

Wichtige Termine: vierteljährliche Kupons und Beobachtungstermine; Endbewertung – 23. Juni 2028; Fälligkeit – 28. Juni 2028.

Hauptsächliche Risiken im Prospekt umfassen potenziellen Kapitalverlust unterhalb der Downside-Schwelle, fehlende Partizipation an Kurssteigerungen, eingeschränkte Liquidität, Kursvolatilität sowie Emittenten-Kreditrisiko. Anleger sollten mit der Komplexität des Produkts und der Möglichkeit eines Totalverlusts vertraut sein.

Positive
  • 10.60 % fixed coupon offers above-market income for investors willing to accept the embedded risks.
  • 50 % downside threshold provides partial principal protection compared with direct equity exposure.
Negative
  • Full downside exposure below the 50 % threshold can lead to total loss of principal.
  • Unsecured UBS credit risk means repayment depends on the issuer’s solvency.
  • No upside participation; returns capped at coupon payments.
  • No exchange listing or market-making commitment significantly limits liquidity.

Insights

TL;DR – Typical medium-risk yield note: 10.6 % coupon, 50 % buffer, full downside beyond buffer, small $2.45 m size, neutral for UBS.

The filing outlines a garden-variety autocallable note. The 10.6 % coupon is attractive but reflects the 50 % contingent protection and issuer credit exposure. The call trigger at 100 % means investors are likely to be redeemed at par within the first few observation dates if CEG remains flat or rises, capping returns to the coupon stream. Estimated value is 96.3 % of issue price, indicating a 3.7 % placement cost – standard for this format. At only $2.45 million, the offering is immaterial to UBS earnings and leverage ratios. The product primarily serves wealth-management clients seeking income in a low-volatility equity outlook.

TL;DR – Material investor risks: uncapped downside, unsecured UBS credit, illiquidity; no systemic impact.

Investors face a double-layered risk profile. Equity-linked market risk is asymmetric: a 50 % buffer provides some protection, but a deep drawdown in CEG would translate 1-for-1 into capital loss. Simultaneously, the note is a senior unsecured claim on UBS; any deterioration in the bank’s creditworthiness directly threatens repayment. Lack of listing and small float curtail secondary liquidity, likely widening bid-ask spreads beyond the embedded 3.7 % cost. From a macro-prudential standpoint, the issuance size is negligible, so systemic risk is non-existent.

UBS AG Trigger Autocallable Yield Notes

UBS AG $2,450,000 linked to the common stock of Constellation Energy Corporation due June 28, 2028

Investment Description

UBS AG Trigger Autocallable Yield Notes (the “Notes”) are unsubordinated, unsecured debt obligations issued by UBS AG (“UBS” or the “issuer”) linked to the common stock of Constellation Energy Corporation (the “underlying asset”). UBS will pay you a coupon on each coupon payment date regardless of the performance of the underlying asset, unless the Notes were previously subject to an automatic call. UBS will automatically call the Notes early if the closing level of the underlying asset on any observation date (beginning after 12 months) prior to the final valuation date is equal to or greater than the call threshold level, which is a level of the underlying asset equal to a percentage of the initial level, as indicated below. If the Notes are subject to an automatic call, UBS will pay you on the coupon payment date corresponding to such observation date (the “call settlement date”) a cash payment per Note equal to the principal amount plus the coupon otherwise due, and no further payments will be made on the Notes. If the Notes are not subject to an automatic call and the closing level of the underlying asset on the final valuation date (the “final level”) is equal to or greater than the downside threshold, at maturity, UBS will pay you a cash payment per Note equal to the principal amount. If, however, the Notes are not subject to an automatic call and the final level is less than the downside threshold, at maturity, UBS will pay you a cash payment per Note that is less than the principal amount, if anything, resulting in a percentage loss on your initial investment equal to the percentage decline in the underlying asset from the initial level to the final level (the “underlying return”) and, in extreme situations, you could lose all of your initial investment. Investing in the Notes involves significant risks. You may lose a significant portion or all of your initial investment at maturity. A higher coupon rate is generally associated with a greater risk of loss. The contingent repayment of principal applies only at maturity. Any payment on the Notes, including any repayment of principal, is subject to the creditworthiness of UBS. If UBS were to default on its obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the Notes and you could lose all of your initial investment.


Features

Income — Regardless of the performance of the underlying asset, UBS will pay you a coupon on each coupon payment date unless the Notes are subject to an automatic call.

Automatic Call Feature — UBS will automatically call the Notes and pay you the principal amount of your Notes plus the coupon otherwise due on the related coupon payment date if the closing level of the underlying asset is equal to or greater than the call threshold level on any observation date (beginning after 12 months) prior to the final valuation date. If the Notes were previously subject to an automatic call, no further payments will be made on the Notes.

Contingent Repayment of Principal Amount at Maturity with Potential for Full Downside Market Exposure — If the Notes are not subject to an automatic call and the final level is equal to or greater than the downside threshold, at maturity, UBS will pay you a cash payment per Note equal to the principal amount. If, however, the Notes are not subject to an automatic call and the final level is less than the downside threshold, at maturity, UBS will pay you a cash payment per Note that is less than the principal amount, if anything, resulting in a percentage loss on your initial investment equal to the underlying return and, in extreme situations, you could lose all of your initial investment. The contingent repayment of principal applies only if you hold the Notes to maturity. Any payment on the Notes, including any repayment of principal, is subject to the creditworthiness of UBS.

We expect to deliver the Notes against payment on the third business day following the trade date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day (T+1), unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes in the secondary market on any date prior to one business day before delivery of the Notes will be required, by virtue of the fact that each Note initially will settle in three business days (T+3), to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement of the secondary market trade.

**

Subject to postponement in the event of a market disruption event, as described in the accompanying product supplement.


Notice to investors: the Notes are significantly riskier than conventional debt instruments. The issuer is not necessarily obligated to repay the principal amount of the Notes at maturity, and the Notes may have the same downside market risk as that of the underlying asset. This market risk is in addition to the credit risk inherent in purchasing a debt obligation of UBS. You should not purchase the Notes if you do not understand or are not comfortable with the significant risks involved in investing in the Notes.

You should carefully consider the risks described under “Key Risks” beginning on page 5 and under “Risk Factors” beginning on page PS-9 of the accompanying product supplement. Events relating to any of those risks, or other risks and uncertainties, could adversely affect the market value of, and the return on, your Notes. You may lose a significant portion or all of your initial investment in the Notes. The Notes will not be listed or displayed on any securities exchange or any electronic communications network.

Automatic Call Feature

UBS will automatically call the Notes if the closing level of the underlying asset on any observation date (beginning after 12 months) prior to the final valuation date is equal to or greater than the call threshold level.

If the Notes are subject to an automatic call, UBS will pay you on the coupon payment date following such observation date (the “call settlement date”) a cash payment per Note equal to the principal amount plus the coupon otherwise due on such date (the “call settlement amount”). Following an automatic call, no further payments will be made on the Notes.

 

Payment
at Maturity (per Note)

If the Notes are not subject to an automatic call and the final level is equal to or greater than the downside threshold, UBS will pay you a cash payment equal to:

Principal Amount of $1,000

If the Notes are not subject to an automatic call and the final level is less than the downside threshold, UBS will pay you a cash payment that is less than the principal amount, if anything, equal to:

$1,000 × (1 + Underlying Return)

In this scenario, you will suffer a percentage loss on your initial investment equal to the underlying return and, in extreme situations, you could lose all of your initial investment.

 

Underlying Return

The quotient, expressed as a percentage, of the following formula:

Final Level – Initial Level
Initial Level

Call Threshold Level(1)

A specified level of the underlying asset that is equal to a percentage of the initial level, as specified on the cover hereof.

Key Risks

An investment in the Notes involves significant risks. Investing in the Notes is not equivalent to a hypothetical investment in the underlying asset. Some of the key risks that apply to the Notes are summarized below, but we urge you to read the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the Notes in the “Risk Factors” section of the accompanying product supplement. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors concerning an investment in the Notes.

Risks Relating to Return Characteristics

Risk of loss at maturity — The Notes differ from ordinary debt securities in that UBS will not necessarily repay the full principal amount of the Notes at maturity. If the Notes are not subject to an automatic call and the final level is less than the downside threshold, you will lose a percentage of your principal amount equal to the underlying return and in extreme situations, you could lose all of your initial investment.

The stated payout from the issuer applies only if you hold your Notes to maturity — You should be willing to hold your Notes to maturity. If you are able to sell your Notes prior to an automatic call or maturity in the secondary market, you may have to sell them at a loss relative to your initial investment even if the level of the underlying asset at such time is equal to or greater than the downside threshold. All payments on the Notes are subject to the creditworthiness of UBS.

Your potential return on the Notes is limited to the coupon payments, you will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying asset and you will not receive dividend payments on the underlying asset or have the same rights as holders of the underlying asset — Your return on the Notes is limited to the coupons paid and you will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying asset, even though you will be exposed to the downside market risk of the underlying asset if the final level is less than the downside threshold. If the Notes are subject to an automatic call, you will not receive any coupons or any other payment in respect of any coupon payment dates after the applicable call settlement date. Because the Notes may be subject to an automatic call as early as the first potential call settlement date, the total return on the Notes could be less than if the Notes remained outstanding until maturity. As a result, the return on an investment in the Notes could be less than the return on a hypothetical investment in the underlying asset. In addition, as an owner of the Notes, you will not receive or be entitled to receive any dividend payments or other distributions on the underlying asset during the term of the Notes, and any such dividends or distributions will not be factored into the calculation of any payments on your Notes. Similarly, you will not have voting rights or any other rights of a holder of the underlying asset.

A higher coupon rate or lower downside threshold may reflect greater expected volatility of the underlying asset, and greater expected volatility generally indicates an increased risk of loss at maturity — The economic terms for the Notes, including the coupon rate and downside threshold, are based, in part, on the expected volatility of the underlying asset at the time the terms of the Notes are set. “Volatility” refers to the frequency and magnitude of changes in the level of the underlying asset. The greater the expected volatility of the underlying asset as of the trade date, the greater the expectation is as of that date that the final level could be less than the downside threshold and, as a consequence, indicates an increased risk of loss. All things being equal, this greater expected volatility will generally be reflected in a higher coupon rate than the yield payable on our conventional debt securities with a similar maturity or on otherwise comparable securities, and/or a lower downside threshold than that on otherwise comparable securities. Therefore, a relatively higher coupon rate may indicate an increased risk of loss. Further, a relatively lower downside threshold may not necessarily indicate that the Notes have a greater likelihood of a return of principal at maturity. You should be willing to accept the downside market risk of the underlying asset and the potential to lose a significant portion or all of your initial investment.

The Notes may be subject to an automatic call and are subject to reinvestment risk — The Notes will be subject to an automatic call if the closing level of the underlying asset is equal to or greater than the call threshold level on any observation date prior to the final valuation date. Because the Notes could be subject to an automatic call as early as the first potential call settlement date, the term of your investment may be limited. In the event that the Notes are subject to an automatic call, there is no guarantee that you would be able to reinvest the proceeds at a comparable rate of return and/or with a comparable coupon rate for a similar level of risk. In addition, to the extent you are able to reinvest such proceeds in an investment comparable to the Notes, you may incur transaction costs such as dealer discounts and hedging costs built into the price of the new securities. Generally, however, the longer the Notes remain outstanding, the less likely it is that the Notes will be subject to an automatic call due to the decline in the level of the underlying asset and the shorter time remaining for the level of the underlying asset to recover. Such periods generally coincide with a period of greater risk of principal loss on your Notes.

Risks Relating to Characteristics of the Underlying Asset

Single equity risk — The return on the Notes, which may be negative, is directly linked to the performance of the underlying asset. The level of the underlying asset can rise or fall sharply due to factors specific to the underlying asset and its issuer (the “underlying asset issuer”), such as stock or commodity price volatility, earnings, financial conditions, corporate, industry and regulatory developments, management changes and decisions and other events, as well as general market factors, such as general stock and commodity market volatility and levels, interest rates and economic, political and other conditions. You, as an investor in the Notes, should conduct your own investigation into the underlying asset issuer and the underlying asset for your Notes. For additional information regarding the underlying asset and the underlying asset issuer, please see “Information About the Underlying Asset” herein and the underlying asset issuer’s SEC filings referred to in that section. We urge you to review financial and other information filed periodically by the underlying asset issuer with the SEC.

There can be no assurance that the investment view implicit in the Notes will be successful — It is impossible to predict whether and the extent to which the level of the underlying asset will rise or fall. There can be no assurance that, if the Notes are not subject to an automatic call, the final level will be equal to or greater than the downside threshold. The level of the underlying asset will be influenced by complex and interrelated political, economic, financial and other factors that affect the underlying asset issuer. You should be willing to accept the downside risks of owning equities in general and the underlying asset in particular, and the risk of losing a significant portion or all of your initial investment.

Limited trading history — The underlying asset only recently commenced trading on its current primary exchange and, therefore, has limited historical performance. Because such underlying asset has a limited trading history, your investment linked to such underlying asset may involve greater risks than an investment linked to the performance of a company with a more established record of performance. For additional information about the underlying asset see the section “Information About the Underlying Asset” herein. Past performance of the underlying asset should not be considered indicative of future performance of the underlying asset.

There is no affiliation between the underlying asset issuer and UBS, and UBS is not responsible for any disclosure by such issuer — We are not affiliated with the underlying asset issuer. We and our affiliates may currently, or from time to time in the future engage in business with the underlying asset issuer. However, we are not affiliated with the underlying asset issuer and are not responsible for such underlying asset issuer’s public disclosure of information, whether contained in SEC filings or otherwise. You, as an investor in the Notes, should conduct your own investigation into the underlying asset and the underlying asset issuer. The underlying asset issuer is not involved in the Notes offered hereby in any way and has no obligation to take your interests into consideration for any reason, including when taking any corporate actions that might affect the market value of, and return on, your Notes.

Estimated Value Considerations

The issue price you pay for the Notes exceeds their estimated initial value — The issue price you pay for the Notes exceeds their estimated initial value as of the trade date due to the inclusion in the issue price of the underwriting discount, hedging costs, issuance and other costs and projected profits. As of the close of the relevant markets on the trade date, we have determined the estimated initial value of the Notes by reference to our internal pricing models and it is set forth in this pricing supplement. The pricing models used to determine the estimated initial value of the Notes incorporate certain variables, including the level and volatility of the underlying asset, any expected dividends on the underlying asset, prevailing interest rates, the term of the Notes and our internal funding rate. Our internal funding rate is typically lower than the rate we would pay to issue conventional fixed or floating rate debt securities of a similar term. The underwriting discount, hedging costs, issuance and other costs, projected profits and the difference in rates will reduce the economic value of the Notes to you. Due to these factors, the estimated initial value of the Notes as of the trade date is less than the issue price you pay for the Notes.

The estimated initial value is a theoretical price; the actual price at which you may be able to sell your Notes in any secondary market (if any) at any time after the trade date may differ from the estimated initial value — The value of your Notes at any time will vary based on many factors, including the factors described above and in “— Risks Relating to Characteristics of the Underlying Asset — Single equity risk” above and is impossible to predict. Furthermore, the pricing models that we use are proprietary and rely in part on certain assumptions about future events, which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, after the trade date, if you attempt to sell the Notes in the secondary market, the actual value you would receive may differ, perhaps materially, from the estimated initial value of the Notes determined by reference to our internal pricing models. The estimated initial value of the Notes does not represent a minimum or maximum price at which we or any of our affiliates would be willing to purchase your Notes in any secondary market at any time.

Our actual profits may be greater or less than the differential between the estimated initial value and the issue price of the Notes as of the trade date — We may determine the economic terms of the Notes, as well as hedge our obligations, at least in part, prior to the trade date. In addition, there may be ongoing costs to us to maintain and/or adjust any hedges and such hedges are often imperfect. Therefore, our actual profits (or potentially, losses) in issuing the Notes cannot be determined as of the trade date and any such differential between the estimated initial value and the issue price of the Notes as of the trade date does not reflect our actual profits. Ultimately, our actual profits will be known only at the maturity of the Notes.

Risks Relating to Liquidity and Secondary Market Price Considerations

There may be little or no secondary market for the Notes — The Notes will not be listed or displayed on any securities exchange or any electronic communications network. There can be no assurance that a secondary market for the Notes will develop. UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates intend, but are not required, to make a market in the Notes and may stop making a market at any time. If you are able to sell your Notes prior to maturity you may have to sell them at a substantial loss. The estimated initial value of the Notes does not represent a minimum or maximum price at which we or any of our affiliates would be willing to purchase your Notes in any secondary market at any time.

The price at which UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates may offer to buy the Notes in the secondary market (if any) may be greater than UBS’ valuation of the Notes at that time, greater than any other secondary market prices provided by unaffiliated dealers (if any) and, depending on your broker, greater than the valuation provided on your customer account statements — For a limited period of time following the issuance of the Notes, UBS Securities LLC or its affiliates may offer to buy or sell such Notes at a price that exceeds (i) our valuation of the Notes at that time based on our internal pricing models, (ii) any secondary market prices provided by unaffiliated dealers (if any) and (iii) depending on your broker, the valuation provided on customer account statements. The price that UBS Securities LLC may initially offer to buy such Notes following issuance will exceed the valuations indicated by our internal pricing models due to the inclusion for a limited period of time of the aggregate value of the underwriting discount, hedging costs, issuance costs and theoretical projected trading profit. The portion of such amounts included in our price will decline to zero on a straight line basis over a period ending no later than the date specified under “Supplemental Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest); Secondary Markets (if any).” Thereafter, if UBS Securities LLC or an affiliate makes secondary markets in the Notes, it will do so at prices that reflect our estimated value determined by reference to our internal pricing models at that time. The temporary positive differential relative to our internal pricing models arises from requests from and arrangements made by UBS Securities LLC with the selling agents of structured debt securities such as the Notes. As described above, UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates intend, but are not required, to make a market for the Notes and may stop making a market at any time. The price at which UBS Securities LLC or an affiliate may make secondary markets at any time (if at all) will also reflect its then current bid-ask spread for similar sized trades of structured debt securities. UBS Securities LLC reflects this temporary positive differential on its customer statements. Investors should inquire as to the valuation provided on customer account statements provided by unaffiliated dealers.

Economic and market factors affecting the terms and market price of Notes prior to maturity — Because structured notes, including the Notes, can be thought of as having a debt component and a derivative component, factors that influence the values of debt instruments and options and other derivatives will also affect the terms and features of the Notes at issuance and the market price of the Notes prior to maturity. These factors include the level of the underlying asset; the volatility of the underlying asset; any expected dividends on the underlying asset; the time remaining to the maturity of the Notes; interest rates in the markets; geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, force majeure and regulatory or judicial events; the creditworthiness of UBS; the then current bid-ask spread for the Notes and the factors discussed under “—Risks Relating to Hedging Activities and Conflicts of Interest — Potential conflicts of interest” below. These and other factors are unpredictable and interrelated and may offset or magnify each other.

Impact of fees and the use of internal funding rates rather than secondary market credit spreads on secondary market prices — All other things being equal, the use of the internal funding rates described above under “— Estimated Value Considerations” as well as the inclusion in the issue price of the underwriting discount, hedging costs, issuance and other costs and any projected profits are, subject to the temporary mitigating effect of UBS Securities LLC’s and its affiliates’ market making premium, expected to reduce the price at which you may be able to sell the Notes in any secondary market.

Risks Relating to Hedging Activities and Conflicts of Interest

Potential conflicts of interest — UBS and its affiliates may engage in business with the underlying asset issuer, which may present a conflict between the interests of UBS and you, as a holder of the Notes. There are also potential conflicts of interest between you and the calculation agent, which will be an affiliate of UBS. The calculation agent will determine whether the Notes are subject to an automatic call and the payment at maturity of the Notes, if any, based on observed closing levels of the underlying asset. The calculation agent can postpone the determination of the terms of the Notes if a market disruption event occurs or is continuing on the trade date, any observation date or the final valuation date. As UBS determines the economic terms of the Notes, including the coupon rate, call threshold level and downside threshold, and such terms include the underwriting discount, hedging costs, issuance and other costs and projected profits, the Notes represent a package of economic terms. There are other potential conflicts of interest insofar as an investor could potentially get better economic terms if that investor entered into exchange-traded and/or OTC derivatives or other instruments with third parties, assuming that such instruments were available and the investor had the ability to assemble and enter into such instruments. Additionally, UBS and its affiliates act in various capacities with respect to the Notes, including as a principal, agent or dealer in connection with the sale of the Notes. Such affiliates, and any other third-party dealers, will derive compensation from the distribution of the Notes and such compensation may serve as an incentive to sell these Notes instead of other investments. Furthermore, given that UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates temporarily maintain a market making premium, it may have the

6

 

effect of discouraging UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates from recommending sale of your Notes in the secondary market.

Following certain events, the calculation agent can make adjustments to the underlying asset and the terms of the Notes that may adversely affect the market value of, and return on, the Notes — Following certain events affecting the underlying asset, the calculation agent may make adjustments to the initial level, call threshold level, downside threshold and/or final level, as applicable, and any other term of the Notes and, in some instances, may replace such underlying asset. However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment in response to every event that could affect the underlying asset. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to make an adjustment, the market value of, and return on, the Notes may be materially and adversely affected. In addition, all determinations and calculations concerning any such adjustments will be made by the calculation agent. You should be aware that the calculation agent may make any such adjustment, determination or calculation in a manner that differs from that discussed in the accompanying product supplement or herein that it believes are appropriate to offset to the extent practical any change in your economic position as a holder of the Notes resulting solely from any such event to achieve an equitable result. Following certain events relating to the underlying asset issuer, such as a reorganization event or a delisting or suspension of trading, the determination as to whether the Notes are subject to an automatic call or the amount you receive at maturity may be based on the equity security of a successor to such underlying asset issuer in combination with any cash or any other assets distributed to holders of such underlying asset, if applicable, or on the common stock issued by another company. The occurrence of any such event and the consequent adjustments may materially and adversely affect the value of, and return on, the Notes. For more information, see the sections “General Terms of the Securities — Antidilution Adjustments for Securities Linked to an Underlying Equity or Equity Basket Asset”, “— Reorganization Events for Securities Linked to an Underlying Equity or Equity Basket Asset” and “— Delisting of, Suspension of Trading in, or Change in Law Affecting, an Underlying Equity” in the accompanying product supplement.

Potential UBS impact on price — Trading or transactions by UBS or its affiliates in the underlying asset, listed and/or over-the-counter options, futures, exchange-traded funds or other instruments with returns linked to the performance of the underlying asset, may adversely affect the level of the underlying asset and, therefore, the market value of, and return on, the Notes.

Potentially inconsistent research, opinions or recommendations by UBS — UBS and its affiliates publish research from time to time on financial markets and other matters that may influence the value of, and return on, the Notes, or express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the Notes. Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by UBS or its affiliates may not be consistent with each other and may be modified from time to time without notice. Investors should make their own independent investigation of the merits of investing in the Notes and the underlying asset.

Risks Relating to General Credit Characteristics

Credit risk of UBS — The Notes are unsubordinated, unsecured debt obligations of UBS and are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. Any payment to be made on the Notes, including any repayment of principal, depends on the ability of UBS to satisfy its obligations as they come due. As a result, UBS’ actual and perceived creditworthiness may affect the market value of the Notes. If UBS were to default on its obligations, you may not receive any payment owed to you under the terms of the Notes and you could lose all of your initial investment.

The Notes are not bank deposits — An investment in the Notes carries risks which are very different from the risk profile of a bank deposit placed with UBS or its affiliates. The Notes have different yield and/or return, liquidity and risk profiles and would not benefit from any protection provided to deposits.

If UBS experiences financial difficulties, FINMA has the power to open restructuring or liquidation proceedings in respect of, and/or impose protective measures in relation to, UBS, which proceedings or measures may have a material adverse effect on the terms and market value of the Notes and/or the ability of UBS to make payments thereunder — The Swiss Federal Act on Banks and Savings Banks of November 8, 1934, as amended (the “Swiss Banking Act”) grants the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (“FINMA”) broad powers to take measures and actions in relation to UBS if it concludes that there is justified concern that UBS is over-indebted or has serious liquidity problems or, after expiry of a deadline, UBS fails to fulfill the applicable capital adequacy requirements (whether on a standalone or consolidated basis). If one of these pre-requisites is met, FINMA is authorized to open restructuring proceedings or liquidation (bankruptcy) proceedings in respect of, and/or impose protective measures in relation to, UBS. The Swiss Banking Act grants significant discretion to FINMA in connection with the aforementioned proceedings and measures. In particular, a broad variety of protective measures may be imposed by FINMA, including a bank moratorium or a maturity postponement, which measures may be ordered by FINMA either on a stand-alone basis or in connection with restructuring or liquidation proceedings.

In restructuring proceedings, FINMA, as resolution authority, is competent to approve the restructuring plan. The restructuring plan may, among other things, provide for (a) the transfer of all or a portion of UBS’ assets, debts, other liabilities and contracts (which may or may not include the contractual relationship between UBS and the holders of Notes) to another entity, (b) a stay (for a maximum of two business days) on the termination of contracts to which UBS is a party, and/or the exercise of (w) rights to terminate, (x) netting rights, (y) rights to enforce or dispose of collateral or (z) rights to transfer claims, liabilities or collateral under contracts to which UBS is a party, (c) the partial or full conversion of UBS’ debt and/or other obligations, including its obligations under the Notes, into equity (a “debt-to-equity swap”), and/or (d) the partial or full write-off of obligations owed by UBS (a “write-off”), including its obligations under the Notes. Prior to any debt-to-equity swap or write-off with respect to any Notes, outstanding equity and debt instruments issued by UBS qualifying as additional tier 1 capital or tier 2 capital must be converted or written-down, as applicable, and cancelled. The Swiss Banking Act addresses the order in which a debt-to-equity swap or a write-off of debt instruments (other than debt instruments qualifying as additional tier 1 capital or tier 2 capital) should occur: first, all subordinated obligations not qualifying as regulatory capital; second, debt instruments for loss absorbency in the course of insolvency measures (Schuldinstrumente zur Verlusttragung im Falle von Insolvenzmassnahmen) under the Swiss Ordinance concerning Capital Adequacy and Risk Diversification for Banks and Securities Dealers of June 1, 2012, as amended; third, all other obligations not excluded by law from a debt-to-equity swap or write-off (other than deposits), such as the Notes; and fourth, deposits to the extent in excess of the amount privileged by law. However, given the broad discretion granted to FINMA, any restructuring plan approved by FINMA in connection with restructuring proceedings with respect to UBS could provide that the claims under or in connection with the Notes will be fully or partially converted into equity or written-off, while preserving other obligations of UBS that rank pari passu with UBS’ obligations under the Notes. Consequently, the exercise by FINMA of any of its statutory resolution powers or any suggestion of any such exercise could materially adversely affect the rights of holders of the Notes, the price or value of their investment in the Notes and/or the ability of UBS to satisfy its obligations under the Notes and could lead to holders losing some or all of their investment in the Notes.

Once FINMA has opened restructuring proceedings with respect to UBS, it may consider factors such as the results of operations, financial condition (in particular, the level of indebtedness, potential future losses and/or restructuring costs), liquidity profile and regulatory capital adequacy of UBS and its subsidiaries, or any other factors of its choosing, when determining whether to exercise any of its statutory resolution powers with respect to UBS, including, if it chooses to exercise such powers to order a debt-to- equity swap and/or a write-off, whether to do so in full or in part. The criteria that FINMA may consider in exercising any statutory resolution power provide it with considerable discretion. Therefore, holders of the Notes may not be able to refer to publicly available criteria in order to anticipate a potential exercise of any such power and, consequently, its potential effects on the Notes and/or UBS.

7

 

If UBS were to be subject to restructuring proceedings, the creditors whose claims are affected by the restructuring plan would not have a right to vote on, reject, or seek the suspension of the restructuring plan. In addition, if a restructuring plan with respect to UBS has been approved by FINMA, the rights of a creditor to challenge the restructuring plan or have the restructuring plan reviewed by a judicial or administrative process or otherwise (e.g., on the grounds that the plan would unduly prejudice the rights of holders of Notes or otherwise be in violation of the Swiss Banking Act) are very limited. Even if any of UBS’ creditors were to successfully challenge the restructuring plan in court, the court could only require the relevant creditors to be compensated ex post and there is currently no guidance as to on what basis such compensation would be calculated and how it would be funded. Any such challenge (even if successful) would not suspend, or result in the suspension of, the implementation of the restructuring plan.

Risks Relating to U.S. Federal Income Taxation

Uncertain tax treatment — Significant aspects of the tax treatment of the Notes are uncertain. You should consult your tax advisor about your tax situation. See “What Are the Tax Consequences of the Notes?” herein and “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”, including the section “— Securities Treated as Investment Units Containing a Debt Instrument and a Put Option Contract”, in the accompanying product supplement.

Hypothetical Examples of How the Notes Might Perform

The below examples are based on hypothetical terms. The actual terms are indicated on the cover hereof.

The examples below illustrate the payment upon an automatic call or at maturity for a $1,000 Note on a hypothetical offering of the Notes, with the following assumptions (amounts may have been rounded for ease of reference):

Principal Amount:

$1,000 per Note

Term:

Approximately 3 years

Coupon Rate*:

6.00% per annum (or 1.50% per quarter)

Coupon:

$15.00 per quarter

Observation Dates:

Quarterly (beginning after 12 months)

Initial Level:

$50.00

Call Threshold Level:

$50.00 (which is equal to 100.00% of the Initial Level)

Downside Threshold:

$25.00 (which is equal to 50.00% of the Initial Level)

* Coupon payment will be paid in arrears in equal installments during the term of the Notes on an unadjusted basis, unless previously subject to an automatic call. The total coupons paid will be based on the duration of the Notes.

Example 1 — The Closing Level of the Underlying Asset is equal to or greater than the Call Threshold Level on the first Observation Date.

Closing Level at First Observation Date:

$50.00 (equal to or greater than Call Threshold Level, Notes are called)

Payment on Call Settlement Date:

$1,015.00

Coupons Previously Paid:

+ $45.00

Total Payment:

$1,060.00

Total Return on the Notes:

6.00%

Because the Notes are subject to an automatic call following the first observation date (which is approximately 12 months after the trade date), UBS will pay you on the call settlement date a cash payment per Note equal to the principal amount plus the coupon for the corresponding coupon payment date. When added to the coupon payments of $45.00 received in respect of the prior coupon payment dates, UBS will have paid you a total of $1,060.00 per Note, for a total return of 6.00% on the Notes. You will not receive any further payments on the Notes.

Example 2 — The Closing Level of the Underlying Asset is equal to or greater than the Call Threshold Level on the eighth Observation Date.

Closing Level at First through Seventh Observation Date:

Various (all less than Call Threshold Level, Notes NOT called)

Closing Level at Eighth Observation Date:

$60.00 (equal to or greater than Call Threshold Level, Notes are called)

Payment on Call Settlement Date:

$1,015.00

Coupons Previously Paid:

+ $150.00

Total Payment:

$1,165.00

Total Return on the Notes:

16.50%

Because the Notes are subject to an automatic call following the eighth observation date (which is approximately 33 months after the trade date), UBS will pay you on the call settlement date a cash payment per Note equal to the principal amount plus the coupon for the corresponding coupon payment date. When added to the coupon payments of $150.00 received in respect of the prior coupon payment dates, UBS will have paid you a total of $1,165.00 per Note for a total return of 16.50% on the Notes. You will not receive any further payments on the Notes.

Example 3 — The Notes are NOT subject to an Automatic Call and the Final Level is equal to or greater than the Downside Threshold.

Closing Level at First through Eighth Observation Date:

Various (all less than Call Threshold Level, Notes NOT called)

Closing Level at Final Valuation Date:

$31.25 (equal to or greater than Downside Threshold)

Payment at Maturity:

$1,015.00

Coupons Previously Paid:

+ $165.00

Total Payment:

$1,180.00

Total Return on the Notes:

18.00%

Because the Notes are not subject to an automatic call and the final level is equal to or greater than the downside threshold, at maturity UBS will pay you a cash payment per Note equal to the principal amount plus the coupon for the final valuation date. When added to the coupon payments of $165.00 received in respect of the prior coupon payment dates, UBS will have paid you a total of $1,180.00 per Note for a total return of 18.00% on the Notes.

9

 

Example 4 — The Notes are NOT subject to an Automatic Call and the Final Level is less than the Downside Threshold.

Closing Level at First through Eighth Observation Date:

Various (all less than Call Threshold Level, Notes NOT called)

Closing Level at Final Valuation Date:

$20.00 (less than Downside Threshold)

Payment at Maturity:

$1,000 × [1 + Underlying Return] =

$1,000 × [1 + (-60.00%)] =

$1,000 × 40.00% =

$400.00

Coupon Paid at Maturity:

+ $15.00

Total Payment at Maturity:

$415.00

Coupons Previously Paid:

+ $165.00

Total Payment:

$580.00

Total Return on the Notes:

-42.00%

Because the Notes are not subject to an automatic call and the final level is less than the downside threshold, at maturity you will be exposed to the negative return of the underlying asset and UBS will pay you $400.00 per Note, plus the coupon for the final coupon payment date. When added to the coupon payments of $165.00 received in respect of the prior coupon payment dates, UBS will have paid you a total of $580.00 per Note for a loss on the Notes of 42.00%.

Investing in the Notes involves significant risks. If the Notes are not subject to an automatic call, you may lose a significant portion or all of your initial investment. Specifically, if the Notes are not subject to an automatic call and the final level is less than the downside threshold, you will lose a percentage of your principal amount equal to the underlying return and, in extreme situations, you could lose all of your initial investment.

Any payment on the Notes, including any payments in respect of an automatic call or any repayment of principal, is subject to the creditworthiness of UBS. If UBS were to default on its obligations, you may not receive any payments owed to you under the Notes and you could lose all of your initial investment.

What Are the Tax Consequences of the Notes?

The U.S. federal income tax consequences of your investment in the Notes are uncertain. There are no statutory provisions, regulations, published rulings or judicial decisions addressing the characterization for U.S. federal income tax purposes of securities with terms that are substantially the same as the Notes. Some of these tax consequences are summarized below, but we urge you to read the more detailed discussion in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”, including the section “— Securities Treated as Investment Units Containing a Debt Instrument and a Put Option Contract”, in the accompanying product supplement and to discuss the tax consequences of your particular situation with your tax advisor. This discussion is based upon the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), final, temporary and proposed U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) regulations, rulings and decisions, in each case, as available and in effect as of the date hereof, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. Tax consequences under state, local and non-U.S. laws are not addressed herein. No ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has been sought as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of your investment in the Notes, and the following discussion is not binding on the IRS.

U.S. Tax Consequences. The U.S. federal income tax consequences of your investment in the Notes are complex and uncertain. By purchasing a Note, you and UBS hereby agree (in the absence of a statutory or regulatory change or an administrative determination or judicial ruling to the contrary) to characterize a Note for all tax purposes as an investment unit consisting of a non-contingent debt instrument and a put option contract in respect of the underlying asset. The terms of the Notes require (in the absence of a statutory or regulatory change or an administrative determination or judicial ruling to the contrary) that you treat your Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes as consisting of two components:

Debt component —We intend to treat the debt component as having a term greater than one year, so that the amounts treated as interest on the debt component would be includable in income by you in accordance with your regular method of accounting for interest for U.S. federal income purposes.

Put option component — The put option component would generally not be taxed until the taxable disposition or maturity (including automatic call) of the Notes. At such time, the put option component should be taxed as short term capital gain if the principal amount is repaid or, if the Notes are not subject to an automatic call and the final level is less than the downside threshold, the put option will be exercised at maturity and you will recognize short-term capital gain or loss equal to (i) the amount of cash received less (ii) the principal amount of your Notes less the total of the put option component of coupon payments received by you.

With respect to coupon payments you receive, you agree to treat such payments as consisting of interest on the debt component and a payment with respect to the put option as follows:

Coupon Rate

Interest on Debt Component

Put Option Component

10.60% per annum

3.42% per annum

7.18% per annum

We will not attempt to ascertain whether the underlying asset issuer would be treated as a “passive foreign investment company” (a “PFIC”) within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code or as a “United States real property holding corporation” (a “USRPHC”) within the meaning of Section 897 of the Code. If any such entity were so treated, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences might apply, to a U.S. holder in the case of a PFIC and to a non-U.S. holder in the case of a USRPHC, upon the taxable disposition of a Note. Both U.S. holders and non-U.S. holders should refer to information filed with the SEC or the equivalent governmental authority by any such entity and consult their tax advisors regarding the possible consequences to them in the event that any such entity is or becomes a PFIC or USRPHC.

Based on certain factual representations received from us, our special U.S. tax counsel, Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP, is of the opinion that it would be reasonable to treat your Notes as described above. However, in light of the uncertainty as to the U.S. federal income tax treatment, it is possible that your Notes could be treated as a single contingent payment debt instrument, or pursuant to some other characterization, such that the timing and character of your income from the Notes could differ materially and adversely from the treatment described above. Because of this uncertainty, we urge you to consult your tax advisor as to the tax consequences of your investment in the Notes and to read the discussion in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”, including the section “— Securities Treated as Investment Units Containing a Debt Instrument and a Put Option Contract”, in the accompanying product supplement for a more detailed description of the tax treatment of your Notes.

Except to the extent otherwise required by law, UBS intends to treat your Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes in accordance with the treatment described above and under “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”, including the section “— Securities Treated as Investment Units Containing a Debt Instrument and a Put Option Contract”, in the accompanying product supplement unless and until such time as some other treatment is more appropriate.

Notice 2008-2. In 2007, the IRS released a notice that may affect the taxation of holders of the Notes. According to Notice 2008-2, the IRS and the Treasury are actively considering the appropriate tax treatment of holders of certain types of structured notes. Legislation has also been proposed in Congress that would require the holders of certain prepaid forward contracts to accrue income during the term of the transaction. It is not clear whether the Notice applies to instruments such as the Notes. Furthermore, it is not possible to determine what guidance or legislation will ultimately result, if any, and whether such guidance or legislation will affect the tax treatment of the Notes.

Medicare Tax on Net Investment Income. U.S. holders that are individuals, estates or certain trusts are subject to an additional 3.8% tax on all or a portion of their “net investment income,” which may include any income or gain realized with respect to the Notes, to the extent of their net investment income that when added to their other modified adjusted gross income, exceeds $200,000 for an unmarried individual, $250,000 for a married taxpayer filing a joint return (or a surviving spouse), $125,000 for a married individual filing a separate return or the dollar amount at which the highest tax bracket begins for an estate or trust. The 3.8% Medicare tax is determined in a different manner than the income tax. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors as to the consequences of the 3.8% Medicare tax.

Specified Foreign Financial Assets. U.S. holders may be subject to reporting obligations with respect to their Notes if they do not hold their Notes in an account maintained by a financial institution and the aggregate value of their Notes and certain other “specified foreign financial assets” (applying certain attribution rules) exceeds an applicable threshold. Significant penalties can apply if a U.S. holder is required to disclose its Notes and fails to do so.

Non-U.S. Holders. If you are a non U.S. holder, subject to Section 871(m) of the Code and “FATCA,” discussed below, you should generally not be subject to U.S. withholding tax with respect to payments on your Notes or to generally applicable information reporting and backup withholding requirements with respect to payments on your Notes if you comply with certain certification and identification requirements as to your non U.S. status (by providing us (and/or the applicable withholding agent) with a fully completed and validly executed applicable IRS Form W-8). Subject to Section 897 of the Code, discussed above, and Section 871(m) of the Code, discussed below, gain realized from the taxable disposition of a Note generally should not be subject to U.S. tax unless (i) such gain is effectively connected with a trade or business conducted by the non-U.S. holder in the U.S., (ii) the non-U.S. holder is a non-resident alien individual and is present in the U.S. for 183 days or more during the taxable year of such taxable disposition and certain other conditions are satisfied or (iii) the non-U.S. holder has certain other present or former connections with the U.S.

13

 

Section 871(m). A 30% withholding tax (which may be reduced by an applicable income tax treaty) is imposed under Section 871(m) of the Code on certain “dividend equivalents” paid or deemed paid to a non-U.S. holder with respect to a “specified equity-linked instrument” that references one or more dividend-paying U.S. equity securities. The withholding tax can apply even if the instrument does not provide for payments that reference dividends. Treasury regulations provide that the withholding tax applies to all dividend equivalents paid or deemed paid on specified equity-linked instruments that have a delta of one (“delta-one specified equity-linked instruments”) issued after 2016 and to all dividend equivalents paid or deemed paid on all other specified equity-linked instruments issued after 2017. However, the IRS has issued guidance that states that the Treasury and the IRS intend to amend the effective dates of the Treasury regulations to provide that withholding on dividend equivalents paid or deemed paid will not apply to specified equity-linked instruments that are not delta-one specified equity-linked instruments and are issued before January 1, 2027.

Based on our determination that the Notes are not “delta-one” with respect to the underlying asset, our special U.S. tax counsel is of the opinion that the Notes should not be delta-one specified equity-linked instruments and thus should not be subject to withholding on dividend equivalents. Our determination is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this determination. Furthermore, the application of Section 871(m) of the Code will depend on our determinations on the date the terms of the Notes are set. If withholding is required, we will not make payments of any additional amounts.

Nevertheless, after the date the terms are set, it is possible that your Notes could be deemed to be reissued for tax purposes upon the occurrence of certain events affecting the underlying asset or your Notes, and following such occurrence your Notes could be treated as delta-one specified equity-linked instruments that are subject to withholding on dividend equivalents. It is also possible that withholding tax or other tax under Section 871(m) of the Code could apply to the Notes under these rules if you enter, or have entered, into certain other transactions in respect of the underlying asset or the Notes. If you enter, or have entered, into other transactions in respect of the underlying asset or the Notes, you should consult your tax advisor regarding the application of Section 871(m) of the Code to your Notes in the context of your other transactions.

Because of the uncertainty regarding the application of the 30% withholding tax on dividend equivalents to the Notes, you are urged to consult your tax advisor regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) of the Code and the 30% withholding tax to an investment in the Notes.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act. The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) was enacted on March 18, 2010, and imposes a 30% U.S. withholding tax on “withholdable payments” (i.e., certain U.S. -source payments, including interest (and original issue discount), dividends, other fixed or determinable annual or periodical gain, profits, and income, and on the gross proceeds from a disposition of property of a type which can produce U.S.-source interest or dividends) and “passthru payments” (i.e., certain payments attributable to withholdable payments) made to certain foreign financial institutions (and certain of their affiliates) unless the payee foreign financial institution agrees (or is required), among other things, to disclose the identity of any U.S. individual with an account of the institution (or the relevant affiliate) and to annually report certain information about such account. FATCA also requires withholding agents making withholdable payments to certain foreign entities that do not disclose the name, address, and taxpayer identification number of any substantial U.S. owners (or do not certify that they do not have any substantial U.S. owners) to withhold tax at a rate of 30%. Under certain circumstances, a holder may be eligible for refunds or credits of such taxes.

Pursuant to final and temporary Treasury regulations and other IRS guidance, the withholding and reporting requirements under FATCA will generally apply to certain “withholdable payments”, will not apply to gross proceeds on a sale or disposition, and will apply to certain foreign passthru payments only to the extent that such payments are made after the date that is two years after final regulations defining the term “foreign passthru payment” are published. If withholding is required, we (or the applicable paying agent) will not be required to pay additional amounts with respect to the amounts so withheld. Foreign financial institutions and non-financial foreign entities located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the U.S. governing FATCA may be subject to different rules.

Investors should consult their tax advisors about the application of FATCA, in particular if they may be classified as financial institutions (or if they hold their Notes through a foreign entity) under the FATCA rules.

Proposed Legislation. In 2007, legislation was proposed in Congress that, if it had been enacted, would have required accrual of income on certain prepaid forward contracts prior to maturity.

Furthermore, in 2013, the House Ways and Means Committee released in draft form certain proposed legislation relating to financial instruments. If it had been enacted, the effect of this legislation generally would have been to require instruments such as the put option component of the Notes to be marked to market on an annual basis with all gains and losses to be treated as ordinary, subject to certain exceptions.

It is not possible to predict whether any similar or identical bills will be enacted in the future, or whether any such bill would affect the tax treatment of your Notes. You are urged to consult your tax advisor regarding the possible changes in law and their possible impact on the tax treatment of your Notes.

Both U.S. and non-U.S. holders are urged to consult their tax advisors concerning the application of U.S. federal income tax laws to their particular situations, as well as any tax consequences of the purchase, beneficial ownership and disposition of the Notes, arising under the laws of any state, local, non-U.S. or other taxing jurisdiction.

Supplemental Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest); Secondary Markets (if any)

We have agreed to sell to UBS Securities LLC, and UBS Securities LLC has agreed to purchase, all of the Notes at the issue price to the public less the underwriting discount indicated on the cover hereof. UBS Securities LLC has agreed to resell the Notes to one or more third-party dealers at a discount from the issue price to the public equal to the underwriting discount indicated on the cover hereof. Certain of such third-party dealers may resell the Notes to other securities dealers at the issue price to the public less an underwriting discount of up to the underwriting discount indicated on the cover hereof. Certain unaffiliated registered investment advisers or fee-based advisory accounts may have agreed to purchase Notes from a third-party dealer at a purchase price of at least $972.20 per Note, and such third-party dealer, with respect to such sales, may have agreed to forgo some or all of the underwriting discount. Additionally, we or one of our affiliates will pay a fee to an unaffiliated broker-dealer for providing certain electronic platform services with respect to this offering.

Conflicts of Interest —UBS Securities LLC is an affiliate of UBS and, as such, has a “conflict of interest” in this offering within the meaning of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) Rule 5121. In addition, UBS will receive the net proceeds (excluding the underwriting discount) from the initial public offering of the Notes, thus creating an additional conflict of interest within the meaning of FINRA Rule 5121. Consequently, the offering is being conducted in compliance with the provisions of FINRA Rule 5121. UBS Securities LLC is not permitted to sell Notes in this offering to an account over which it exercises discretionary authority without the prior specific written approval of the account holder.

UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates may offer to buy or sell the Notes in the secondary market (if any) at prices greater than UBS’ internal valuation — The value of the Notes at any time will vary based on many factors that cannot be predicted. However, the price (not including UBS Securities LLC’s or any affiliates’ customary bid-ask spreads) at which UBS Securities LLC or any affiliate would offer to buy or sell the Notes immediately after the trade date in the secondary market is expected to exceed the estimated initial value of the Notes as determined by reference to our internal pricing models. The amount of the excess will decline to zero on a straight line basis over a period ending no later than 6 months after the trade date, provided that UBS Securities LLC may shorten the period based on various factors, including the magnitude of purchases and other negotiated provisions with selling agents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates intend, but are not required to make a market for the Notes and may stop making a market at any time. For more information about secondary market offers and the estimated initial value of the Notes, see “Key Risks — Estimated Value Considerations” and “— Risks Relating to Liquidity and Secondary Market Price Considerations” herein.

Prohibition on Sales to EEA Retail Investors — The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (the “EEA”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Regulation (EU) 2017/1129, as amended. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (the “EU PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the EU PRIIPs Regulation.

Prohibition on Sales to UK Retail Investors — The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the United Kingdom (“UK”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 2017/565 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (the “EUWA”); (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”) and any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement Directive (EU) 2016/97, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (the “UK PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.
