UBS plant Rückkauf ausstehender Anleihen

UBS lanciert Angebot zum Barrückkauf bestimmter ausstehender Tier-2- und nicht nachrangiger Anleihen im Gesamtwert von bis zu ungefähr CHF 2,15 Milliarden.






Zürich/Basel, 02. Dezember 2013 - Wie UBS heute bekannt gegeben hat, wird die Bank ein Angebot zum Barrückkauf von fünf nachrangigen, auf Schweizer Franken, Euro oder britische Pfund lautenden Anleihen und sechs nicht nachrangigen unbesicherten, auf Schweizer Franken, Euro, italienische Lire oder britische Pfund lautenden Anleihen mit einem Kapitalwert von insgesamt höchstens EUR 1,75 Milliarden oder rund CHF 2,15 Milliarden unterbreiten. Dies gilt unter Vorbehalt einer Erhöhung oder Senkung und sonstiger in den Kaufangeboten dargelegten Konditionen. Die vom Angebot betroffenen nachrangigen Anleihen zählen gemäss den aktuell geltenden, stufenweise umzusetzenden Basel-III-Regeln als Tier-2-Kapital. Auf Basis der vollständig umgesetzten Basel-III-Regeln sind sie jedoch nicht als Tier-2-Kapital anrechenbar.

Diese Transaktion entspricht unserem Ansatz, die Bilanz und den künftigen Zinsaufwand proaktiv zu reduzieren und gleichzeitig unsere solide Liquiditäts-, Finanzierungs- und Kapitalposition aufrecht zu erhalten.

Wir erwarten, dass diese Transaktion unsere Basel-III-Gesamtkapitalquote auf stufenweise umgesetzter Basis um zirka 0,2% - 0,5% reduzieren wird. Als Folge dieser Transaktion rechnen wir mit einem kleinen Verlust, gehen aber davon aus, dass wir diesen durch die Verminderung des künftigen Zinsaufwands kurzfristig auffangen können. Der Rückkauf der Tier-2-Anleihen wird unsere CET1-Quote nicht beeinträchtigen, doch könnte der mit der Transaktion verbundene erwartete Verlust einen geringfügigen Einfluss darauf haben.

Die Angebotsperiode endet am 13. Dezember 2013. Die Bedingungen für eine mögliche Verlängerung, Neueröffnung oder vorherige Beendigung der Frist sind den Kaufangeboten zu entnehmen.

OFFER AND DISTRIBUTION RESTRICTIONS This announcement and the tender offer memorandum produced in connection with the offers described therein (the 'Tender Offer Memorandum' and the 'Offers' respectively) do not constitute an offer or an invitation to participate in the Offers in or from the United States or any other jurisdiction in or from which, or to or from any person to or from whom, it is unlawful to make such offer or invitation or for there to be such participation under applicable laws. The distribution of this announcement and the Tender Offer Memorandum in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. Persons into whose possession this announcement and/or the Tender Offer Memorandum come are required by each of UBS AG (the 'Offeror'), the dealer managers and Lucid Issuer Services Limited (the 'Tender Agent') to inform themselves about and to observe any such restrictions.

United States The Offers are not being made and will not be made, directly or indirectly, in or into, or by use of the mails of, or by any means or instrumentality of interstate or foreign commerce of, or of any facilities of a national securities exchange of, the United States. This includes, but is not limited to, facsimile transmission, electronic mail, telex, telephone and the internet. The securities may not be tendered in any Offer by any such use, means, instrumentality or facility from or within the United States or by persons located or resident in the United States. Accordingly, copies of the Tender Offer Memorandum and any other documents or materials relating to the Offers are not being, and must not be, directly or indirectly, mailed or otherwise transmitted, distributed or forwarded (including, without limitation, by custodians, nominees or trustees) in or into the United States or to any persons located or resident in the United States. Any purported tender of securities in an Offer resulting directly or indirectly from a violation of these restrictions will be invalid and any purported tender of securities made by a person located or resident in the United States, or any agent, fiduciary or other Intermediary acting on a non-discretionary basis for a principal giving instructions from within the United States will be invalid and will not be accepted. Each holder participating in an Offer will be deemed to represent that it is not located or resident in the United States and is not participating in such Offer from the United States or it is acting on a non-discretionary basis for a principal located outside the United States that is not giving an order to participate in such Offer from the United States. For the purposes of this and the above paragraph, 'United States' means the United States of America, its territories and possessions, any state of the United States of America and the District of Columbia.

United Kingdom The communication of the Tender Offer Memorandum and any other documents or materials relating to the Offers has not been approved by an authorised person for the purposes of section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the 'FSMA'). Accordingly, such documents and/or materials are not being distributed to, and must not be passed on to, the general public in the United Kingdom. The communication of such documents and/or materials is exempt from the restriction on financial promotions under section 21(1) of the FSMA on the basis that it is only directed at and may only be communicated to (1) persons falling within the definition of investment professional (as defined in Article 19(5) of the Order), (2) those persons who are existing members or creditors of the Offeror or other persons within Article 43(2) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005, and (3) any other persons to whom such documents and/or materials may lawfully be communicated in circumstances in which section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Offeror.

Belgium Neither the Tender Offer Memorandum nor any other documents or materials relating to the Offers have been submitted to or will be submitted for approval or recognition to the Financial Services and Markets Authority (Autorité des services et marchés financiers / Autoriteit voor financiële diensten en markten) and, accordingly, the Offers may not be made in Belgium by way of a public offering, as defined in Articles 3 and 6 of the Belgian Law of 1 April 2007 on public takeover bids as amended or replaced from time to time. Accordingly, the Offers may not be advertised and the Offers will not be extended, and neither the Tender Offer Memorandum nor any other documents or materials relating to the Offers (including any memorandum, information circular, brochure or any similar documents) has been or shall be distributed or made available, directly or indirectly, to any person in Belgium other than 'qualified investors' in the sense of Article 10 of the Belgian Law of 16 June 2006 on the public offer of placement instruments and the admission to trading of placement instruments on regulated markets, acting on their own account. The Tender Offer Memorandum has been issued only for the personal use of the above qualified investors and exclusively for the purpose of the Offers. Accordingly, the information contained in the Tender Offer Memorandum may not be used for any other purpose or disclosed to any other person in Belgium.

France The Offers are not being made, directly or indirectly, to the public in France. Neither the Tender Offer Memorandum nor any other documents or offering materials relating to the Offers, has been or shall be distributed to the public in France and only (i) providers of investment services relating to portfolio management for the account of third parties (personnes fournissant le service d'investissement de gestion de portefeuille pour compte de tiers) and/or (ii) qualified investors (investisseurs qualifiés) acting for their own account, other than individuals, all as defined in, and in accordance with, Articles L.411-1, L.411-2 and D.411-1 of the French Code monétaire et financier, are eligible to participate in the Offers. The Tender Offer Memorandum has not been submitted to the clearance procedures (visa) of the Autorité des marchés financiers.

Italy None of the Offers, the Tender Offer Memorandum or any other documents or materials relating to the Offers has been or will be submitted to the clearance procedure of the Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa ('CONSOB'), pursuant to applicable Italian laws and regulations. The Offers are being carried out in the Republic of Italy ('Italy') as an exempted offer pursuant to article 101-bis, paragraph 3-bis of the Legislative Decree No. 58 of 24 February 1998, as amended (the 'Financial Services Act') and article 35-bis, paragraph 4 of CONSOB Regulation No. 11971 of 14 May 1999, as amended (the 'CONSOB Regulation'). The Offers are also being carried out in compliance with article 35-bis, paragraph 7 of the CONSOB Regulation. Holders or beneficial owners of the securities located in Italy can offer the securities through authorised persons (such as investment firms, banks or financial intermediaries permitted to conduct such activities in Italy in accordance with the Financial Services Act, CONSOB Regulation No. 16190 of 29 October 2007, as amended from time to time, and Legislative Decree No. 385 of 1 September 1993, as amended) and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations or with requirements imposed by CONSOB or any other Italian authority. Each intermediary must comply with the applicable laws and regulations concerning information duties vis-à-vis its clients in connection with the securities or the Offers.

Switzerland Neither the Tender Offer Memorandum nor any other offering or marketing material relating to the securities constitutes a prospectus as such term is understood pursuant to article 652a or article 1156 of the Swiss Federal Code of Obligations or a listing prospectus within the meaning of the listing rules of the SIX Swiss Exchange. Accordingly, the investor protection rules otherwise applicable to investors in Switzerland do not apply to the Offers. When in doubt, investors based in Switzerland are recommended to contact their legal, financial or tax adviser with respect to the Offers.

General The Offers do not constitute an offer to buy or the solicitation of an offer to sell securities in any circumstances in which such offer or solicitation is unlawful. In those jurisdictions where the securities or other laws require the Offers to be made by a licensed broker or dealer and the dealer managers or, where the context so requires, any of their respective affiliates is such a licensed broker or dealer in that jurisdiction, the Offers shall be deemed to be made on behalf of the Offeror by such dealer manager or affiliate (as the case may be) in such jurisdiction. In addition to the representations referred to above in respect of the United States, each holder participating in an Offer will also be deemed to give certain representations in respect of the other jurisdictions referred to above and generally as set out in 'Procedures for Participating in the Offers' in the Tender Offer Memorandum. Any tender of securities for purchase pursuant to an Offer from a holder that is unable to make these representations may be rejected. Each of the Offeror, the dealer managers and the Tender Agent reserves the right, in their absolute discretion, to investigate, in relation to any tender of securities for purchase pursuant to an Offer, whether any such representation given by a holder is correct and, if such investigation is undertaken and as a result the Offeror determines (for any reason) that such representation is not correct, such tender may be rejected.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This release contains statements that constitute 'forward-looking statements'. While these statements represent UBS's expectation concerning future developments, a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors could cause actual developments and results to differ materially from UBS's expectations. In addition, these results could depend on other factors that we have previously indicated could affect our business and financial performance which are contained in our past and future filings and reports, including those filed with the SEC. More detailed information about those factors is set forth in documents furnished by UBS and filings made by UBS with the SEC, including UBS's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2012. UBS is not under any obligation to (and expressly disclaims any obligation to) update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise
