New Issue: UBS prices $350,000 trigger phoenix autocallables tied to Citigroup, iShares MSCI Mexico

By Jennifer Chiou

New York, Feb. 18 - UBS AG, London Branch priced $350,000 of trigger phoenix autocallable optimization securities due Aug. 17, 2015 linked to the lesser performing of the common stock of Citigroup Inc. and iShares MSCI Mexico Capped ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the share prices for both assets close at or above the trigger prices - 73% of the initial share prices - on a monthly observation date, the issuer will pay an annualized contingent coupon for that month at the rate of 9%. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid that month.

If the share prices for both assets close at or above the initial prices on a monthly observation date, the notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon.

If the notes are not called and the both assets finish at or above the trigger prices, the payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon. Otherwise, investors will be exposed to the share price decline from the initial price of the lesser-performing asset.

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