New Issue: UBS prices $3.05 million relative performance notes on S&P 500, NYSE US 5Y Treasury

By Jennifer Chiou

New York, Sept. 27 - UBS AG, London Branch priced $3,046,700 of 0% relative performance securities due Sept. 29, 2017 linked to the S&P 500 index and the NYSE US 5 Year Treasury Futures index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The S&P 500 is the "long index," and the 5Y Treasury Futures is the "short index." The relative return is the long index return minus the short index return.

If the long index return is greater than or equal to the short index return, the payout at maturity will be par of $10 plus 150% of the relative return.

If the long index return is less than the short index return, the payout will be par plus the relative return. Because the relative return will be negative in this case, investors will receive less than par.

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