New Issue: UBS prices $105,000 trigger phoenix autocallables linked to Microsoft

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Sept. 20 - UBS AG, London Branch priced $105,000 of trigger phoenix autocallable optimization securities due Sept. 27, 2012 linked to the common stock of Microsoft Corp., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If Microsoft stock closes at or above the trigger price - 78% of the initial share price - on an observation date, the issuer will pay a contingent coupon for that interest period at the rate of 10.25% per year. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid for that interest period. Interest is payable every other month.

If the shares close at or above the initial price on an observation date, the notes will be called at par of $10 plus the contingent coupon.

If the notes are not called and Microsoft shares finish at or above the trigger price, 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.

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