New Issue: UBS prices $1 million trigger phoenix autocallables linked to indexes

By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., May 22 - UBS AG, London Branch priced $1 million of trigger phoenix autocallable notes due May 28, 2024 linked to the least performing of the Euro Stoxx 50 index and the MSCI Emerging Markets index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If each index closes at or above its coupon barrier, 70% of its initial level, on a quarterly observation date, the issuer will pay a contingent coupon for that quarter at the rate of 7.85% per year. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid that quarter.

Beginning one year after issuance, the notes will be automatically called at par plus the contingent coupon if each index closes at or above its initial level on a quarterly observation date.

If the notes are not called and each index finishes at or above its trigger level, 50% of its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon. Otherwise, investors will be exposed to the decline of the worst-performing index from its initial level.

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