Madison, Wis., Dec. 15 – UBS AG, Jersey Branch registered to sell an additional $500 million of 0% exchange-traded access securities due Oct. 31, 2039 linked to the Bloomberg Commodity Index Total Return (previously the Dow Jones - UBS Commodity Index Total Return), according to a 424B3 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The company originally registered to sell up to $100 million of the notes and then registered to sell $150 million of additional notes from time to time at varying prices.
