By Marisa Wong

Morgantown, W.Va., Dec. 24 – UBS AG, London Branch plans to price 0% trigger return optimization securities due Dec. 31, 2018 linked to the Russell 2000 index, according to an FWP filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the index return is positive, the payout at maturity will be par of $10 plus double the index return, subject to a maximum return that is expected to be 33% to 39% and will be set at pricing. If the index return is zero or negative and the final index level is greater than or equal to the trigger level, 80% of the initial index level, the payout will be par. If the final index level is less than the trigger level, investors will have full exposure to the index’s decline.

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

The notes are expected to price Dec. 28 and settle Dec. 31.

The Cusip number is 90275G863.
