Tacoma, Wash., Oct. 16 - UBS AG, London Branch priced $8.1 million of fixed-coupon autocallable securities due Oct. 21, 2014 linked to the common stock of United States Steel Corp., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The interest rate is 12.5% per year, payable quarterly.
