By Jennifer Chiou

New York, April 15 - UBS AG, London Branch priced $5.4 million of phoenix autocallable notes due April 29, 2015 linked to the common stock of Splunk 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 17.26% per year if Splunk shares close at or above the barrier price on the observation date for that quarter. Otherwise, no interest will be paid that quarter. The barrier price will be 65% of the initial share price.

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