New Issue: UBS prices $1.55 million phoenix autocallables with memory coupon linked to crude

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Aug. 18 – UBS AG, London Branch priced $1.55 million of phoenix autocallable notes with memory interest due Aug. 17, 2018 linked to the S&P GSCI Crude Oil Excess Return index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the index closes at or above the barrier level – 65% of the initial level – on a quarterly observation date, the notes will pay a contingent coupon for that quarter at the rate of 12%, plus any previously unpaid contingent interest payments.

If the index closes at or above the initial level on a quarterly observation date, the notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon and any previously unpaid contingent interest payments.

If the notes are not called and the index finishes at or above the 65% trigger level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon and any previously unpaid coupons.

Otherwise, investors will be fully exposed to any losses.

UBS Investment Bank is the underwriter. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA are the agents.
