UBS amends downside threshold for notes tied to SPDR S&P 500 ETF

By Marisa Wong

Morgantown, W.Va., Nov. 9 – UBS AG, London Branch amended the downside threshold for its recently priced $5.37 million of trigger autocallable contingent yield notes due Nov. 9, 2018 linked to the SPDR S&P 500 ETF trust, according to a 424B3 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The downside threshold is 75.75%, instead of 75.9% as previously stated.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at a rate of 7% per year if the ETF’s shares close at or above the downside threshold level on the observation date for that quarter.

After six months, the notes will be automatically called at par of $10 if the ETF closes at or above the initial share price on any quarterly observation date.

If the notes are not called and the final share price is greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the final share price is less than the initial share price.

UBS Financial Services Inc. and UBS Investment Bank are the agents.
