New Issue: UBS prices $3 million trigger phoenix callable notes linked to three indexes

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Aug. 29 - UBS AG, London Branch priced $3 million of trigger phoenix callable optimization securities due Aug. 31, 2023 linked to the Euro Stoxx 50 index, the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If each index closes at or above its trigger level, 60% of its initial level, on a quarterly observation date, the issuer will pay a contingent coupon for that quarter at the rate of 9.65% per year. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid that quarter.

Beginning Aug. 28, 2014, the notes are callable on any quarterly observation date at par of $10 plus the contingent coupon, if any.

If the notes are not called, the payout will be par plus the contingent coupon unless any index finishes below its trigger level, in which case investors will be exposed to the decline of the worst-performing index from its initial level.

UBS Financial Services Inc. and UBS Investment Bank are the underwriters.
