Illustrative Examples

Capitalized terms used in the Illustrative Examples but not defined herein shall have the meanings attributed to them in the prospectus supplement for the ETRACS ETNs.

Calculation of Closing Indicative Value prior to a Measurement Period

The illustrative example below demonstrates how the Closing Indicative Value is calculated on each day prior to the first day of a Measurement Period or the occurrence of a Zero Value Event, i.e. during the normal life of the security. [1]

          

  • Closing Indicative Value: the dollar value per ETN that an investor would receive on any day, if it redeemed the ETN on such day [2]
  • Current Principal Amount: the unleveraged notional investment in the Index Constituent Securities per ETN at the close of trading on any Reset Valuation Date
  • Accrued Fees: the sum of the Daily Tracking Fee and the Daily Financing Fee accrued since the last Reset Valuation Date
  • Index Factor: the leveraged percentage change in the Index level since the Last Reset Index Closing Level [3]

[1]  On any calendar day prior to the start of a Final Measurement Period or a Call Measurement Period, which occur at Maturity or upon UBS's exercise of its Call Right.

[2]  Excluding any Redemption Fee Amount.

[3]  If a Permanent Deleveraging Event occurs, the leverage of the ETNs is permanently reset to 1.0

Quarterly Reset Valuation Dates

The below illustrative examples demonstrate how the leverage, deemed financing amount and Current Principal Amount (“CPA”) are reset on a Quarterly Reset Valuation Date in circumstances where (a) the Index Closing Level has increased from the Last Reset Index Closing Level and (b) the Index Closing Level has decreased from the Last Reset Index Closing Level. For the ease of analysis and presentation, no Daily Financing Fees or Daily Tracking Fees are accrued in the example.

         

         

Loss Rebalancing Events

The illustrative example below demonstrates how the deemed financing amount and Current Principal Amount are reset on a Reset Valuation Date (the Loss Rebalancing Valuation Date) following a Loss Rebalancing Event triggered in circumstances where the Intraday Index Value has decreased by 20% or more on a single Index Business Day. For the ease of analysis and presentation in the example, (a) no Daily Financing Fees or Daily Tracking Fees are accrued, (b) the decrease in the Intraday Index Value occurs on a single day, (c) the Intraday Index Value decreases by 20% or more prior to 3:15 p.m., and (d) the Loss Rebalancing Valuation Date is on the same Index Business Day that the Loss Rebalancing Event occurred and on the next Index Business Day after the last Reset Valuation Date.

              

Permanent Deleveraging Event

The illustrative example below demonstrates how the deemed financing amount, leverage and Current Principal Amount are reset over two Index Business Days following a Permanent Deleveraging Event triggered in circumstances where the Intraday Index Value has decreased by 40% or more on a single Index Business Day. For the ease of analysis and presentation in the example, (a) no Daily Financing Fees or Daily Tracking Fees are accrued, (b) the decrease in the Intraday Index Value occurs on a single day, (c) the Intraday Index Value decreases by 40% or more prior to 3:15 p.m., (d) the First Permanent Deleveraging Valuation Date is on the same Index Business Day that the Permanent Deleveraging Event occurred and on the next Index Business Day after the last Reset Valuation Date, and (e) the Index Closing Level remains unchanged between the close of trading on the First Permanent Deleveraging Valuation Date and the Second Permanent Deleveraging Valuation Date.

 

              

 

Automatic Acceleration Upon Zero Value Event

The illustrative example below demonstrates how the deemed financing amount, leverage and Current Principal Amount are reset following a Zero Value Event triggered in circumstances where the Current Indicative Value (intraday indicative value) or the Closing Indicative Value is less than or equal to zero (other than on an Excluded Day). For the ease of analysis and presentation in the example, (a) no Daily Financing Fees or Daily Tracking Fees are accrued, (b) the decrease in the Intraday Index Value occurs on a single day, and (c) the Zero Value Event occurs on the next Index Business Day after the last Reset Valuation Date.

             

Calculation of Closing Indicative Value during a 4-day Measurement Period

The illustrative example below demonstrates how the Closing Indicative Value is calculated on each day during a four-day Measurement Period. For the ease of analysis and presentation in the example, (a) no Daily Financing Fees or Daily Tracking Fees are accrued, (b) Accrued Fees are equal to zero on all days of the Measurement Period, (c) the Index Business Day immediately preceding the first day of the Measurement Period is a Reset Valuation Date, and (d) the Index Closing Level remains unchanged from the Last Reset Index Closing Level until the end of the Measurement Period
