UBS Investment Bank today announced coupon payments for twelve ETRACS
exchange-traded notes (the “ETNs”), all traded on the NYSE Arca. The
relevant coupon information is provided in the table below. For
additional ETRACS information, go to www.etracs.com
or download the ETRACS
Full ETN List.
* Due to the monthly coupon payment schedule of these ETNs, “Current
Yield (annualized)” equals the sum of the most recently announced Coupon
Amount and the two immediately preceding Coupon Amounts, multiplied by
four (to annualize such coupons), divided by the closing price of the
ETN on its current Coupon Valuation Date, or, if the closing price is
not available on that date, then the previous available closing price,
and rounded to two decimal places for ease of analysis. The Current
Yield is not indicative of future coupon payments, if any, on the ETN.
You are not guaranteed any coupon or distribution amount under the ETN.
Note: The ETNs listed in the table pay a variable monthly coupon linked
to the cash distributions, if any, on the respective underlying index
constituents, less withholding taxes, if any. Variations in the amount
of monthly distributions will lead to large variations in the Current
Yield as calculated above. As such, the Current Yield for each is not
indicative of future coupon payments, if any, on these ETNs.
