New Issue: UBS prices $610,000 phoenix autocallables linked to Valeant

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Aug. 7 – UBS AG, London Branch priced $610,000 of phoenix autocallable notes due Oct. 7, 2015 linked to the common stock of Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 14.7% per year if Valeant shares close at or above the trigger price, 75% of the initial share price, on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if the stock closes at or above the initial share price on any quarterly observation date.

If the notes are not called and the shares finish at or above the trigger price, the payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon. Otherwise, the payout will be par minus 1% for every 1% that the final share price is less than the initial share price.

UBS Investment Bank is the underwriter with JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC as placement agents.
