By E. Janene Geiss

Philadelphia, Sept. 15 - UBS AG priced $341,000 of reverse convertible notes due March 16, 2010 linked to the common stock of General Electric Co., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The six-month notes will pay 6.75% for an annualized coupon of 13.5%. Interest is payable monthly.
