	 	(i)	Upon the occurrence of a Change in Progressive Capital Component Requirement or an Alignment Event and subject to clauses (f) and (g) of this Condition 5, the Issuer may, within 60 days after the

or has issued, a capital instrument that (A) qualifies as Tier 2 Capital and Progressive Capital Component, and (B) has terms and conditions that (x) include a write-down feature, and (y) contain one or more provisions that
are, in the reasonable opinion of the Issuer, different in any material respect from those in these Terms and Conditions, which provisions, if they had been included in these Terms and Conditions, would have prevented the Notes from qualifying as
Tier 2 Capital and Progressive Capital Component immediately prior to such change in the National Regulations.

 If the Issuer elects to redeem the Notes pursuant to
clause (b), (c), (d) or (e) of this Condition 5, the Issuer shall give the Holders not less than 30 and not more than 60 days’ prior notice in accordance with Condition 12 (Notices) (an “Early
Redemption Notice”), which notice shall be irrevocable and specify the date on which the Issuer shall redeem the Notes pursuant to such clause of this Condition 5 (such specified date, the “Early Redemption Date”).

  

	 	(g)	Conditions for Early Redemption 

 The Issuer may only redeem the Notes pursuant to
clause (b), (c) or (e) of this Condition 5 on the relevant Early Redemption Date if (i) the FINMA has approved such redemption in writing on or prior to such Early Redemption Date and (ii) no Viability Event has
occurred prior to such Early Redemption Date. 
  

	 	(h)	Purchases 

 UBS AG or any other member of the Group or any of their respective
affiliates may at any time purchase Notes at any price in the open market or otherwise, provided that (i) such purchase complies with any limits or conditions to which any member of the Group is subject under applicable banking laws and
regulations at the time of such purchase, (ii) the FINMA has approved such purchase in writing on or prior to the date of such purchase (such approval not being required for purchases made in connection with stabilisation measures in compliance
with applicable law or in connection with any market making in the Notes) and (iii) no Viability Event has occurred prior to the date of such purchase. Any Notes so purchased may, at the option of the Issuer, be held, reissued, resold or
cancelled. 

  
 10 









	 	(i)	Cancellation 

 All Notes redeemed in accordance with this Condition 5 shall be
cancelled and may not be reissued or resold. 
  

	 	(j)	Early Redemption of Other Instruments 

 For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood
that, if, upon the occurrence of a Tax Event, Regulatory Event, Change in Progressive Capital Component Requirement or Alignment Event, the Issuer does not elect to early redeem the Notes pursuant to this Condition 5, nothing in this
Condition 5 shall prohibit the Issuer from redeeming any other instruments issued by any member of the Group pursuant to the terms thereof. 
  

	6.	CONTINGENT WRITE-DOWN 

  

	 	(a)	Trigger Event 

  

	 	(i)	Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Event, a Contingent Write-down shall occur on the Trigger Event Write-down Date in accordance with clause (d) of this Condition 6. 


 

	 	(ii)	A “Trigger Event” shall be deemed to have occurred if the Issuer gives the Holders a Trigger Event Write-down Notice in accordance with clause (b) of this Condition 6. 


 

	 	(b)	Trigger Event Write-down Notice 

  

	 	(i)	If, with respect to any Publication Date, 

  

	 	(A)	the Trigger CET1 Ratio as of such Publication Date is less than the Write-down Threshold; and 

  

	 	(B)	UBS AG has not (x) paid, or proposed to pay, any distribution in cash or in kind (other than in the form of Core Capital Instruments) on any Core Capital Instruments or (y) repurchased, redeemed or retired for
any consideration any Core Capital Instruments, in the case of each of subclauses (x) and (y) of this clause (B), during the one-month period ended on the date immediately preceding such Publication Date, except pursuant to the
conversion of a security into, or the exchange of a security for, any Core Capital Instruments, or as a Permitted Transaction, 


the Issuer shall, subject to clauses (b)(ii) and (b)(iii) of this Condition 6, give a Trigger Event Write-down Notice to the
Holders (x) if such Publication Date is an Ordinary Publication Date, within five Business Days of such Publication Date (such fifth Business Day, the “Trigger Breach Determination Date”, and the date of such notice, the
“Ordinary Trigger Event Notice Date”), and (y) if such Publication Date is an Extraordinary Publication Date, on such Publication Date (the “Extraordinary Trigger Event Notice Date”), in each case in accordance
with Condition 12 (Notices). 
  

	 	(ii)	If the Issuer is required to give a Trigger Event Write-down Notice pursuant to clause (b)(i) of this Condition 6, and on the relevant Publication Date any High-Trigger Contingent Capital is outstanding with
respect to which either (x) no High-Trigger Write-down/Conversion Notice has been given prior to the Trigger Event Notice Date or (y) a High-Trigger Write-down/Conversion Notice has been given prior to the Trigger Event Notice Date, but
the Trigger Event Write-down Date is scheduled to occur prior to the relevant High-Trigger Write-down/Conversion Date, 


  
 11 









	 	(A)	in the case of clause (x) above, the Issuer shall postpone giving such Trigger Event Write-down Notice until the date on which a High-Trigger Write-down/Conversion Notice has been given with respect to all such
outstanding High-Trigger Contingent Capital and such date shall be deemed to be the Trigger Event Notice Date; and 

  

	 	(B)	in the case of clauses (x) and (y) above, if the Trigger Event Write-down Date is scheduled to occur prior to the High-Trigger Write-down/Conversion Date (or, in the case of more than one High-Trigger
Write-down/Conversion Date, the latest High-Trigger Write-down/Conversion Date), the Trigger Event Write-down Date shall be postponed to the High-Trigger Write-down/Conversion Date (or the latest High-Trigger Write-down/Conversion Date, as
applicable) and such postponement shall be specified in such Trigger Event Write-down Notice. 

  

	 	(iii)	If (A) the Issuer is required to give a Trigger Event Write-down Notice pursuant to clause (b)(i) of this Condition 6 in relation to an Ordinary Publication Date, and (B) prior to the earlier of the
Ordinary Trigger Event Notice Date and the Trigger Breach Determination Date, the FINMA, upon the request of UBS AG, has agreed in writing that a Contingent Write-down is not required as a result of actions taken by the Group or circumstances or
events, in each case, that have had, or imminently will have, the effect of restoring the CET1 Ratio as of the Balance Sheet Date relating to the relevant Ordinary Publication Date, after giving pro forma effect to such actions, circumstances
or events, to a level above the Write-down Threshold that the FINMA and UBS AG deem, in their sole discretion, to be adequate at such time, the Issuer (x) shall not give such Trigger Event Write-down Notice pursuant to clause (b)(i) of
this Condition 6 in relation to the relevant Ordinary Publication Date, and (y) shall give notice to the Holders on or prior to the Trigger Breach Determination Date in accordance with Condition 12 (Notices), which notice shall
state that no Contingent Write-down shall occur in relation to the relevant Ordinary Publication Date. 

  

	 	(c)	Viability Event 

  

	 	(i)	Upon the occurrence of a Viability Event, (A) the Issuer shall give notice to the Holders in accordance with Condition 12 (Notices) within three days of the date on which such Viability Event occurred,
which notice shall (x) state that a Viability Event has occurred and a Contingent Write-down will take place and (y) specify the date on which the Contingent Write-down will take place, which date shall be no later than 10 Business
Days after the date of such notice (such specified date, the “Viability Event Write-down Date”, and such notice, a “Viability Event Write-down Notice”), and (B) a Contingent Write-down shall occur on the
Viability Event Write-down Date in accordance with clause (d) of this Condition 6. 

  

	 	(ii)	A “Viability Event” shall be deemed to have occurred if: 

  

	 	(A)	the FINMA has notified UBS AG in writing that it has determined a write-down of the Notes, together with the conversion or write down, as applicable, of holders’ claims in respect of any other capital instruments
issued by any member of the Group that, pursuant to their terms or by operation of law, are capable of being converted into equity or written down at that time, is, because customary measures to improve UBS AG’s capital adequacy are at the time
inadequate or infeasible, an essential requirement to prevent UBS AG from becoming insolvent, bankrupt, unable to pay a material part of its debts as they fall due or unable to carry on its business; or 


  
 12 









	 	(B)	customary measures to improve UBS AG’s capital adequacy being at the time inadequate or infeasible, UBS AG has received an irrevocable commitment of direct or indirect extraordinary support from the Public Sector
(beyond customary transactions and arrangements in the ordinary course) that has, or imminently will have, the effect of improving UBS AG’s capital adequacy and without which, in the determination of (and as notified in writing by) the FINMA,
UBS AG would have become insolvent, bankrupt, unable to pay a material part of its debts as they fall due or unable to carry on its business. 


For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that, a Viability Event may occur irrespective of whether or not a Trigger Event has occurred or
whether any of the conditions to the issuance of a Trigger Event Write-down Notice have been met. 
  

	 	(d)	Contingent Write-down 

 If the Issuer has given a Write-down Notice in accordance with
this Condition 6, then on the relevant Write-down Date, 
  

	 	(i)	the full principal amount of each Note shall automatically be written down to zero, the Notes shall be cancelled and all references to the principal amount of the Notes in these Terms and Conditions shall be construed
accordingly; 

  

	 	(ii)	the Holders shall be automatically deemed to irrevocably waive their right to receive, and no longer have any rights against the Issuer with respect to, repayment of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes written
down pursuant to clause (i) above (bedingter Forderungsverzicht); 

  

	 	(iii)	the Issuer shall pay (A) any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes and (B) any Additional Amounts related to any interest on the Notes, in the case of each of subclauses (A) and (B) of this
clause (iii), if and only to the extent that such interest or Additional Amount, as applicable, became due and payable to the Holders prior to the relevant Write-down Notice Date; and 


 

	 	(iv)	except as described in clause (iii) above, all rights of any Holder for payment of any amounts under or in respect of the Notes (including, without limitation, any amounts arising as a result of, or due and payable
upon the occurrence of, an Event of Default) shall become null and void, irrespective of whether such amounts have become due and payable prior to the relevant Write-down Notice Date or the Write-down Date. 


 

	 	(e)	Determination of CET1 Ratio and Trigger CET1 Ratio 

 With respect to any
Publication Date, (i) the CET1 Ratio as of the relevant Balance Sheet Date, (ii) the Trigger CET1 Ratio as of such Publication Date and (iii) the components of both of the foregoing, in each case, as published on such
Publication Date, shall be final for purposes of this Condition 6, and any revisions, restatements or adjustments to any of the calculations described in subclauses (i) through (iii) of this clause (e) subsequently published
shall have no effect for purposes of this Condition 6. 
  

	7.	PAYMENTS 

  

	 	(a)	If the Scheduled Due Date for any payment under the Notes does not fall on a Business Day, the Issuer undertakes to effect payment for value on the Business Day immediately following such Scheduled Due Date, and the
Holders shall not be entitled to any additional sum in relation to such payment. All payments required to be made under the Notes (including any Additional Amounts) shall be made to the Holders in U.S. dollars without collection costs, without
any restrictions and whatever the circumstances may be, irrespective of nationality, domicile or residence of the relevant Holder and without certification, affidavit or the fulfilment of any other formality. 


  
 13 









	 	(b)	The Issuer reserves the right to appoint or, after any such appointment, to terminate the appointment of, one or more paying agents to carry out any payment, calculation or other functions in respect of the Notes (each,
a “Paying Agent”). Any such appointment or termination of appointment shall only take effect not more than 45 and not less than 30 days after the Issuer has notified the Holders of such appointment or termination pursuant to
Condition 12 (Notices); provided, however, that, in the case of insolvency of any Paying Agent, any termination of such Paying Agent and appointment of any other Paying Agent shall take immediate effect. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if legislation is enacted in Switzerland providing for the taxation of payments according to principles similar to those laid down in the draft legislation proposed by the Swiss Federal Council on 24 August 2011, the Issuer shall
appoint a Paying Agent outside of Switzerland if and to the extent that making such payments through such Paying Agent would eliminate any withholding tax that would otherwise apply to such payments pursuant to such legislation. 


 

	8.	TAXATION 

  

	 	(a)	All payments to be made by or on behalf of the Issuer pursuant to these Terms and Conditions (including for the avoidance of doubt, payments by a Paying Agent) shall be made without withholding or deduction for, or on
account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other government charges of any nature (“Taxes”) imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of any Tax Jurisdiction or any political subdivision
thereof or any authority of or in a Tax Jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof having the power to impose, levy, collect, withhold or assess Taxes, unless withholding, deduction or accounting for such Taxes is required by law.


  

	 	(b)	In the event that any payment to be made by or on behalf of the Issuer pursuant to these Terms and Conditions (including for the avoidance of doubt, payments by a Paying Agent) is subject to any withholding or deduction
for, or on account of, any Taxes by requirement of law in a Tax Jurisdiction, the Issuer shall pay such additional amounts as will result in the Holders receiving the amounts that they would have received pursuant to these Terms and Conditions if no
such withholding or deduction had been required (“Additional Amounts”). 

  

	 	(c)	The Issuer shall not be required to pay any Additional Amounts pursuant to clause (b) of this Condition 8 in relation to any Note: 


 

	 	(i)	if the relevant Holder is liable for such Taxes on such Note as a result of having some connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction other than its mere ownership or possession of such Note or the receipt of principal
or interest in respect thereof; or 

  

	 	(ii)	where such withholding or deduction is required to be made pursuant to the EU Savings Tax Directive, or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, the EU Savings Tax Directive or
pursuant to any agreements between the European Community and any other country or territory providing for measures equivalent to those laid down in the EU Savings Tax Directive; or 


 

	 	(iii)	if the relevant Holder would have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by arranging to receive payment through a Paying Agent (if any is appointed) or through another Paying Agent (if more than one is
appointed) in another Member State of the European Union; or 

  

	 	(iv)	with respect to any Tax collected pursuant to the provisions of, or any laws or an agreement with any Tax Jurisdiction relating to, Sections 1471 through 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (commonly referred to as
“FATCA”); or 

  

	 	(v)	where such withholding or deduction is required to be made pursuant to laws enacted by Switzerland providing for the taxation of payments according to principles similar to those laid down in the draft legislation
proposed by the Swiss Federal Council on 24 August 2011, in particular, the principle to have a person other than the Issuer withhold or deduct tax; or 


  
 14 









	 	(vi)	where such withholding or deduction is required to be made pursuant to an agreement between Switzerland and another country or countries on final withholding taxes levied by Swiss paying agents in respect of persons
resident in the other country or countries on income of such person on Notes booked or deposited with a Swiss paying agent (Abgeltungssteuer); or 

  

	 	(vii)	to the extent any combination of the above applies. 

  

	 	(d)	Any reference in these Terms and Conditions to amounts payable by the Issuer pursuant to these Terms and Conditions includes (i) any Additional Amount payable pursuant to this Condition 8 and (ii) any sum
payable pursuant to an obligation taken in addition to or in substitution for the obligation in this Condition 8. 

  

	9.	STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS 

 In accordance with Swiss law, (i) claims for interest
payments under the Notes shall become time-barred after the five-year period and (ii) claims for the repayment or redemption of Notes shall become time-barred after the ten-year period, in each case, commencing on the date on which such
payments, repayment or redemption become due and payable. 
  

	10.	EVENTS OF DEFAULT 

  

	 	(a)	If any of the following events shall occur, such occurrence shall constitute an “Event of Default”: 

  

	 	(i)	the Issuer shall fail to pay the principal amount of any Note when and as the same shall become due and payable under these Terms and Conditions, whether at the due date pursuant to clause (a) of Condition 5
(Redemption and Purchase) or at a date fixed for early redemption pursuant to clause (b), (c), (d) or (e) of Condition 5 (Redemption and Purchase), and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of
30 days; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the Issuer shall fail to pay any interest on the Notes when and as the same shall become due and payable under these Terms and Conditions, whether at the due date pursuant to Condition 4 (Interest) or at a
date fixed for early redemption pursuant to clause (b), (c), (d) or (e) of Condition 5 (Redemption and Purchase), and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days; or 


 

	 	(iii)	the Issuer shall fail to observe or perform any other covenant, condition, or agreement contained in these Terms and Conditions and such failure either (A) is incapable of remedy or (B) shall continue
unremedied for a period of 60 days after written notice thereof from any Holder to the Issuer; or 

  

	 	(iv)	a Bankruptcy Event. 

  

	 	(b)	Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default relating to any failure of the Issuer to meet any payment obligation under these Terms and Conditions and subject to Condition 6 (Contingent Write-down),
(i) such payment obligation (and such payment obligation only) shall be immediately deemed a due and payable (fällige) payment obligation of the Issuer, and (ii) if (A) the relevant Holder has formally requested payment of
such payment obligation, (B) such payment obligation has not been fulfilled within the statutory period under Swiss law commencing after the date of such formal request and (C) a writ of payment (Zahlungsbefehl) has been issued with
respect to such payment obligation pursuant to Swiss insolvency laws, the relevant Holder may institute proceedings against the Issuer in Switzerland (but not elsewhere) to enforce its rights with respect to such payment obligation under Swiss
insolvency laws. 


  
 15 









	 	(c)	If an insolvency proceeding with respect to the Issuer is instituted in Switzerland in accordance with clause (b) of this Condition 10, the Issuer shall not (i) after having received the writ of payment
(Zahlungsbefehl) relating to the relevant payment obligation, argue or plead that such payment obligation is not due and payable by the Issuer, or (ii) prior to the declaration of bankruptcy (or similar proceeding under Swiss insolvency
laws), make any payment to the relevant Holder under or in connection with the Notes. 

  

	 	(d)	In the case of any Event of Default arising under clause (a)(iii) above and subject to Condition 6 (Contingent Write-down), any Holder may seek specific performance or damages with respect to such Event
of Default pursuant to the Swiss Code if so entitled thereunder. 

  

	 	(e)	In the case of any Event of Default arising under clause (a)(iv) above and subject to Condition 6 (Contingent Write-down), any Holder may, by written notice to the Issuer, declare the principal amount
of any of its Notes, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind. 


 

	 	(f)	No remedy against the Issuer other than those described in this Condition 10 shall be available to the Holders in connection with the Issuer’s obligations under these Terms and Conditions, whether for the
recovery of amounts owing under these Terms and Conditions or in respect of any breach by the Issuer of any of its other obligations under these Terms and Conditions or otherwise. In particular, no Holder may declare (i) the principal amount of
any Notes due and payable prior to the Maturity Date, or (ii) any interest on any Notes due and payable prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, except, in the case of each of subclauses (i) and (ii) of this clause (f),
pursuant to clause (e) of this Condition 10. 

  

	11.	AMENDMENTS 

  

	 	(a)	If an Alignment Event has occurred and is continuing, the Issuer may, without the consent of the Holders, amend these Terms and Conditions in order to align them (to the extent possible) with the terms of any
outstanding capital instruments that (x) have been issued by any member of the Group, (y) qualify as Tier 2 Capital and Progressive Capital Component and (z) have terms and conditions that (A) include a write-down feature,
and (B) contain one or more provisions that are, in the reasonable opinion of the Issuer, different in any material respect from those in these Terms and Conditions, which provisions, if they had been included in these Terms and Conditions,
would have prevented the Notes from qualifying as Progressive Capital Component immediately prior to the change in the National Regulations related to such Alignment Event, provided that 


 

	 	(i)	such amendment, in the reasonable opinion of the Issuer, does not adversely affect the rights and claims of the Holders under the Notes; 


 

	 	(ii)	the Issuer has given the Holders not less than 30 days’ notice of such amendment in accordance with Condition 12 (Notices), which notice (the “Amendment Notice”) shall (A) be
irrevocable and (B) state the date on which such amendment shall be effective (the “Amendment Effective Date”); 

  

	 	(iii)	the FINMA has approved such amendment in writing; 

  

	 	(iv)	no Viability Event has occurred prior to the applicable Amendment Effective Date; and 

  

	 	(v)	prior to the date of the applicable Amendment Notice, the Issuer has not delivered an Early Redemption Notice, pursuant to which it has notified the Holders that it is exercising its right of early redemption under
clause (e) of Condition 5 (Redemption and Purchase) as the result of the occurrence of the Alignment Event. 


  
 16 









	 	(b)	In addition to its rights under clause (a) of this Condition 11, the Issuer may, without the consent of the Holders, make any amendment to these Terms and Conditions that it considers to be (i) necessary
or desirable to give effect to the provisions of clause (a) of Condition 13 (Substitution) (including, without limitation, (x) if the Substitute Issuer is organised and/or resident for tax purposes in a jurisdiction other than
Switzerland, any amendments to any references to the jurisdiction of “Switzerland” contained herein, including, without limitation, amendments to the definition of the term “Bankruptcy Event”, the definition of the term
“Business Day”, the governing law of the subordination provisions set forth in Condition 3 (Status and Subordination) and the provisions of Condition 10 (Events of Default)), and (y) any amendments to reflect
UBS AG’s guarantee described in clause (a)(vi) of Condition 13 (Substitution)), or (ii) formal, minor or technical in nature or (iii) necessary to correct a manifest error. 


 

	 	(c)	The Issuer shall notify the Holders of any amendments made pursuant to clause (b) of this Condition 11 in accordance with Condition 12 (Notices), which notice shall state the date on which such
amendment shall be effective. 

  

	 	(d)	Any amendment made pursuant to this Condition 11 shall be binding on the Holders in accordance with its terms. 

  

	12.	NOTICES 

 So long as the Notes are listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange, notices to Holders
shall be given by the Issuer (i) by means of electronic publication on the internet website of the SIX Swiss Exchange (www.six-swiss-exchange.com), where notices are currently published under the address
www.six-swiss-exchange.com/news/official_notices/search_en.html or (ii) otherwise in accordance with the regulations of the SIX Swiss Exchange. Any notice shall be deemed to be validly given on the date of such publication or, if published more
than once, on the date of the first such publication. 
 If the Notes are for any reason no longer listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange, notices
to Holders shall be given by the Issuer to the Intermediary for forwarding to the holders of the Notes. Any such notice shall be deemed to be validly given on the date of delivery to the Intermediary. 

 

	13.	SUBSTITUTION 

  

	 	(a)	The Issuer may, without the consent of the Holders, substitute any entity (whether or not such entity is organised under the laws of Switzerland) (such substitute entity, the “Substitute Issuer”) for
itself as principal debtor under the Notes upon giving no more than 30 and no less than 10 days’ notice to the Holders in accordance with Condition 12 (Notices), provided that: 


 

	 	(i)	at least 95 per cent. of the Substitute Issuer’s capital and voting rights are held, directly or indirectly, by UBS AG; 

  

	 	(ii)	the Issuer is not in default in respect of any amount payable under the Notes at the time of such substitution; 

  

	 	(iii)	the Issuer and the Substitute Issuer have entered into such documents (the “Substitution Documents”) as are necessary to give effect to such substitution and pursuant to which the Substitute Issuer has
undertaken in favour of each Holder to be bound by these Terms and Conditions as the principal debtor under the Notes in place of the Issuer; 

  

	 	(iv)	if the Substitute Issuer is resident for tax purposes in a jurisdiction (the “New Residence”) other than that in which the Issuer prior to such substitution was resident for tax purposes (the
“Former Residence”), the Substitution Documents contain an undertaking and/or such other provisions as may be necessary to ensure that each Holder has the benefit of an undertaking in terms corresponding to the provisions of
Condition 8 (Taxation), with the substitution of references to the Former Residence with references to the New Residence; 


  
 17 









	 	(v)	the Issuer and the Substitute Issuer have obtained all necessary governmental approvals and consents for such substitution and for the performance by the Substitute Issuer of its obligations under the Substitution
Documents; 

  

	 	(vi)	UBS AG has irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed to the Holders, on a subordinated basis, the due and punctual payment of all amounts due and payable by the Substitute Issuer under, or in respect of, the Notes
pursuant to article 111 of the Swiss Code; 

  

	 	(vii)	if the Substitute Issuer is not organised under the laws of Switzerland, the Substitute Issuer has appointed a process agent as its agent in Switzerland to receive service of process on its behalf in relation to any
legal proceedings arising out of or in connection with the Notes; and 

  

	 	(viii)	the Substitute Issuer has appointed a Paying Agent in Switzerland that is a participant in the Intermediary. 

  

	 	(b)	Upon any substitution pursuant to clause (a) of this Condition 13, the Substitute Issuer shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer under the Notes with the
same effect as if the Substitute Issuer had been named as Issuer in these Terms and Conditions, and the Issuer shall be released from its obligations under the Notes. 


 

	14.	FURTHER ISSUES 

 The Issuer may from time to time without the consent of the Holders
issue further notes and, provided that such notes have the same terms and conditions as the Notes in all respects (or in all respects except for the issue date and/or first date on which interest is paid), such further notes shall be
consolidated and form a single series with the Notes. If the Issuer issues any such further notes pursuant to this Condition 14, references in these Terms and Conditions to “Notes” shall include such further notes, unless the
context otherwise requires. 
  

	15.	CURRENCY INDEMNITY 

 Any amount received or recovered by any Holder in a currency other
than U.S. dollars (whether as a result of, or of the enforcement of, a judgment or order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the insolvency, winding-up or dissolution of UBS AG or otherwise) under the Notes shall only constitute a discharge of
the Issuer to the extent of the amount in U.S. dollars that such Holder is able to purchase with the amount so received or recovered in such other currency on the date of such receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to purchase
U.S. dollars with such amount on such date, on the first date on which it is practicable to do so). If the amount of U.S. dollars such Holder is able to purchase is less than the amount owed by the Issuer to such Holder under the Notes,
the Issuer shall indemnify such Holder against any loss sustained by it as a result. In addition, the Issuer shall indemnify such Holder for the costs of making such purchase. For purposes of this Condition 15, it is sufficient for the relevant
Holder to demonstrate that it would have suffered a loss had an actual purchase been made. The indemnities under this Condition 15 shall (i) constitute a separate and independent obligation from the Issuer’s other obligations
hereunder, (ii) give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, (iii) apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by any Holder and (iv) continue in full force and effect despite any other judgment, order, claim or proof for
a liquidated amount in respect of any amount due under the Notes or any other judgment or order. 
  

	16.	NO SET-OFF BY HOLDERS 

 Subject to applicable law, each Holder, by acceptance of any
direct or beneficial interest in a Note, agrees that it shall not, and waives its right to, exercise, claim or plead any right of set-off, compensation or retention with respect to any amount owed to it by the Issuer in respect of, or arising in
connection with, the Notes. 

  
 18 









	17.	NO CONVERSION 

 Notwithstanding the powers of the FINMA under articles 25 et
seq. of the FBA, the Notes shall under no circumstances be converted into equity of UBS AG, and shall only absorb losses pursuant to these Terms and Conditions. 
  

	18.	GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION 

  

	 	(a)	The Notes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Switzerland. 

  

	 	(b)	The courts of the city of Zurich (venue being Zurich 1) shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any disputes that may arise out of or in connection with the Notes.
