New Issue: UBS prices $1.42 million phoenix autocallables linked to Weatherford

By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., July 8 – UBS AG, London Branch priced $1.42 million of 0% phoenix autocallable notes due July 22, 2015 linked to the common stock of Weatherford International plc, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 13.15% per year if Weatherford shares close at or above the trigger price, 80% of the initial share price, on the observation date for that quarter. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid for that quarter.

If the stock closes at or above the initial price on any quarterly observation date other than the final review date, the notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon.

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, investors will be fully exposed to losses from the initial share price.

The final share price will be the average of the share prices on the five trading days ending July 17, 2015.

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