UBS AG $3,475,000 Capped Knock-Out Notes

Linked to a Basket of Equities due November 27, 2013

Investment Description

UBS AG Capped Knock-Out Notes (the “Notes”) are unsubordinated and unsecured debt securities issued by UBS AG (“UBS” or the “Issuer”) linked to the performance of an equally weighted basket (the “underlying basket”) of common stocks (each, a “basket equity”). The amount you receive at maturity is based on the return of the underlying basket and whether the final basket price is below the trigger price. If the final basket price is above the trigger price, you will receive, at maturity, a return on your investment equal to the greater of the 7.75% contingent minimum return and the underlying return up to a predetermined maximum return of 25%. If the final basket price is below the trigger price, your Notes will be fully exposed to the decline in the price of the underlying basket, and you may lose some or all of your investment. You will not receive interest during the term of the Notes. Investing in the Notes involves significant risks. You may lose some or all of your principal amount. The contingent minimum return feature applies only if you hold the Notes to maturity. Any payment on the Notes is subject to the creditworthiness of UBS. If UBS were to default on its payment obligations you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the Notes and you could lose your entire initial investment.

Features

o Contingent Minimum Return With Participation in the Positive Performance of the Underlying Basket Up to the Maximum Return: At maturity, UBS will pay you the principal amount of the Notes plus a minimum return of 7.75% as long as the final basket price is above the trigger price. The Notes provide for the participation in any positive performance of the underlying basket above the 7.75% contingent minimum return up to a maximum return of 25%. If the final basket price is below the trigger price on the final valuation date you will be fully exposed to the negative performance of the underlying basket.

o Contingent Repayment of Principal: The contingent minimum return feature also provides for the contingent repayment of your principal at maturity. If you hold the Notes to maturity and the final basket price is above the trigger price, UBS will pay you at least your principal amount plus the contingent minimum return. If the final basket price is below the trigger price, your investment will be fully exposed to any negative underlying return and, in that case, UBS will pay less than your principal amount, if anything, resulting in a loss proportionate to the negative underlying return. The contingent repayment of principal applies only if you hold the Notes to maturity. Any payment on the Notes, including any repayment of principal, is subject to the creditworthiness of UBS.

Key Dates

Trade Date May 25, 2012
Settlement Date May 31, 2012
Final Valuation Date* November 22, 2013
Maturity Date* November 27, 2013
  • Subject to postponement in the event of a market disruption event as described in the Capped Knock-Out Notes product supplement.

NOTICE TO INVESTORS: THE NOTES ARE SIGNIFICANTLY RISKIER THAN CONVENTIONAL DEBT INSTRUMENTS. THE ISSUER IS NOT NECESSARILY OBLIGATED TO REPAY THE FULL PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THE NOTES AT MATURITY, AND THE NOTES CAN HAVE DOWNSIDE MARKET RISK SIMILAR TO THE UNDERLYING BASKET. THIS MARKET RISK IS IN ADDITION TO THE CREDIT RISK INHERENT IN PURCHASING A DEBT OBLIGATION OF UBS. YOU SHOULD NOT PURCHASE THE NOTES IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND OR ARE NOT COMFORTABLE WITH THE SIGNIFICANT RISKS INVOLVED IN INVESTING IN THE NOTES.

YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE RISKS DESCRIBED UNDER “KEY RISKS” BEGINNING ON PAGE 7 AND UNDER “RISK FACTORS” BEGINNING ON PAGE PS-13 OF THE CAPPED KNOCK-OUT NOTES PRODUCT SUPPLEMENT BEFORE PURCHASING ANY NOTES. EVENTS RELATING TO ANY OF THOSE RISKS, OR OTHER RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, COULD ADVERSELY EFFECT THE MARKET VALUE OF, AND THE RETURN ON, YOUR NOTES. YOU MAY LOSE SOME OR ALL OF YOUR INITIAL INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES.

Investor Suitability

The Notes may be suitable for you if:

¨ You fully understand the risks inherent in an investment in the Notes, including the risk of loss of your entire initial investment.

¨ You can tolerate a loss of all or a substantial portion of your investment and are willing to make an investment that may have the same downside market risk as the underlying basket or the basket equities.

¨ You believe the underlying basket will appreciate over the term of the Notes and that the appreciation is unlikely to exceed an amount equal to the maximum return of 25%.

¨ You understand and accept that your potential return is limited to the maximum return of 25% and you are willing to invest in the Notes based on this maximum return.

¨ You can tolerate fluctuations in the price of the Notes prior to maturity that may be similar to or exceed the downside fluctuations in the price of the underlying basket.

¨ You do not seek current income from your investment.

¨ You are willing to hold the Notes to maturity, a term of approximately 18 months, and accept that there may be little or no secondary market for the Notes.

¨ You are willing to assume the credit risk of UBS for all payments under the Notes, and understand that if UBS defaults on its obligations you may not receive any amounts due to you including any repayment of principal.

The Notes may not be suitable for you if:

¨ You do not fully understand the risks inherent in an investment in the Notes, including the risk of loss of your entire initial investment.

¨ You require an investment designed to guarantee a full return of principal at maturity.

¨ You cannot tolerate a loss of all or a substantial portion of your investment and are unwilling to make an investment that may have the same downside market risk as the underlying basket or the basket equities.

¨ You believe that the price of the underlying basket will decline during the term of the Notes and will be below the trigger price on the final valuation date, or you believe the underlying basket will appreciate over the term of the Notes by more than the maximum return.

¨ You seek an investment that has unlimited return potential without a cap on appreciation.

¨ You are unwilling to invest in the Notes based on the maximum return of 25%.

¨ You cannot tolerate fluctuations in the price of the Notes prior to maturity that may be similar to or exceed the downside fluctuations in the price of the underlying basket.

¨ You seek current income from this investment.

¨ You are unable or unwilling to hold the Notes to maturity, a term of approximately 18 months, or you seek an investment for which there will be an active secondary market.

¨ You are not willing to assume the credit risk of UBS for all payments under the Notes.

The suitability considerations identified above are not exhaustive. Whether or not the Notes are a suitable investment for you will depend on your individual circumstances, and you should reach an investment decision only after you and your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors have carefully considered the suitability of an investment in the Notes in light of your particular circumstances. You should also review carefully the “Key Risks” beginning on page 7 of this pricing supplement for risks related to an investment in the Notes.

Final Terms

Issuer UBS AG, London Branch
Principal Amount $1,000 per Note
Term Approximately 18 months.
Underlying Basket The Securities are linked to an equally weighted basket consisting of 15 common stocks (each, a “basket equity”) as listed under “Basket Information” on page 10 of this pricing supplement.
Contingent Minimum Return 7.75%
Basket Weighting For each basket equity, 6.6667%.
Maximum Return 25%.
Payment at Maturity (per Note) The final basket price is observed on the final valuation date and the underlying return is calculated.
If the final basket price is greater than or equal to the trigger price, UBS will pay you a cash payment at maturity equal to:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × the greater of: (a) Contingent Minimum Return and (b) Underlying Return, subject to the Maximum Return)
If the final basket price is less than the trigger price, UBS will pay you a cash payment at maturity that is less than your principal amount, if anything, equal to:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × Underlying Return)
In such scenario, you will suffer a loss on your initial investment in an amount that is proportionate to the negative underlying return.
The contingent minimum return feature applies only at maturity and is subject to the creditworthiness of UBS.
Underlying Return Final Basket Price – Initial Basket Price Initial Basket Price
Initial Basket Price 100
Final Basket Price The product of (i) the initial basket price of the underlying basket multiplied by (ii) the sum of one and the weighted performance of the basket equities on the final valuation date. The weighted performance for each basket equity is the equity return for such basket equity multiplied by the basket weighting.
Trigger Price 75, which is equal to 75% of the initial basket price.
Initial Equity Price With respect to each basket equity, the closing price for such basket equity on the trade date, as specified under “Basket Information” on page 10 of this pricing supplement.
Final Equity Price With respect to each basket equity, the closing price for such basket equity on the final valuation date, as determined by the calculation agent.
Equity Return With respect to each basket equity, the percentage change from the respective initial equity price to the respective final equity price, calculated as follows:
Final Equity Price – Initial Equity Price Initial Equity PRice

Determining Payment at Maturity

INVESTING IN THE NOTES INVOLVES SIGNIFICANT RISKS. YOU MAY LOSE SOME OR ALL OF YOUR PRINCIPAL AMOUNT. ANY PAYMENT ON THE NOTES, INCLUDING ANY REPAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL, IS SUBJECT TO THE CREDITWORTHINESS OF UBS. IF UBS WERE TO DEFAULT ON ITS PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS, YOU MAY NOT RECEIVE ANY AMOUNTS OWED TO YOU UNDER THE NOTES AND YOU COULD LOSE YOUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT.

Hypothetical Examples of How the Notes Might Perform at Maturity

The following examples illustrate the payment at maturity on a hypothetical offering of the Notes assuming the following*:

Term: 18 months
Principal Amount: $1,000 per Note
Initial Basket Price: 100
Trigger Price: 75, which is 75% of the initial basket price
Contingent Minimum Return: 7.75%
Maximum Return: 25%
  • The examples are provided for illustrative purposes only and are purely hypothetical. The numbers in the examples have been rounded for ease of analysis.

Example 1: The Final Basket Price is 120 (an Underlying Return of 20%).

Because the underlying return of 20% is greater than the contingent minimum return of 7.75% but less than the maximum return of 25%, the investor would receive at maturity the principal amount of each Note plus an additional payment equal to the product of (i) the principal amount multiplied by (ii) the underlying return.

At maturity, the investor will receive a cash payment per Note equal to:

principal amount + (principal amount × underlying return) = $1,000 + ($1,000 × 20%) = $1,200

Investor would receive $1,200 at maturity for each Note for a total return on the Notes equal to the underlying return of 20%.

Example 2: The Final Basket Price is 135 (an Underlying Return of 35%).

Because the underlying return of 35% is greater than the maximum return of 25%, the investor would receive at maturity the principal amount of each Note plus an additional payment equal to the product of (i) the principal amount multiplied by (ii) the maximum return.

At maturity, the investor will receive a cash payment per Note equal to:

principal amount + (principal amount × maximum return) = $1,000 + ($1,000 × 25%) = $1,250

Investor would receive $1,250 at maturity for each Note for a total return on the Notes equal to the maximum return of 25%.

Example 3: The Final Basket Price is 90 (an Underlying Return of -10%).

Because the underlying return of -10% is less than the contingent minimum return of 7.75%, the investor would receive at maturity the principal amount of each Note plus an additional payment equal to the product of (i) the principal amount multiplied by (ii) the contingent minimum return.

At maturity, the investor will receive a cash payment per Note equal to:

principal amount + (principal amount × contingent minimum return) = $1,000 + ($1,000 × 7.75%) = $1,077.50

Investor would receive $1,077.50 at maturity for each Note for a total return on the Notes equal to the contingent minimum return of 7.75%.

Example 4: The Final Basket Price is 50 (an Underlying Return of -50%).

Because the final basket price of 50 is below the trigger price of 75, the investor would receive at maturity the principal amount of each Note reduced by the product of (i) the principal amount multiplied by the (ii) underlying return.

At maturity, the investor will receive a cash payment per Note equal to:

principal amount + (principal amount × underlying return) = $1,000 + ($1,000 × -50%) = $500.00

Investor would receive $500.00 at maturity for each Note for a total return on the Notes equal to the contingent return of -50% (the underlying return).

Accordingly, if the final basket price is below the trigger price, you may lose some or all of your principal amount.

Any payment on the Notes is dependent on the ability of UBS to satisfy its obligations when they come due. If UBS is unable to meet its obligations, you may not receive any amounts due to you under the Notes.

Hypothetical Return Table of the Notes at Maturity

The hypothetical return table below is based on the following assumptions*:

Term: 18 months
Principal Amount: $1,000 per Note
Initial Basket Price: 100
Trigger Price: 75, which is 75% of the initial basket price
Contingent Minimum Return: 7.75%
Maximum Return: 25%
  • The examples are provided for illustrative purposes only and are purely hypothetical. The numbers in the examples have been rounded for ease of analysis.
Final Basket Price Underlying Return (1) Payment at Maturity of the Notes Total Return on the Notes
150.00 50.00% $1,250.00 25.00%

50.00 -50.00% $500.00 -50.00%

(1) The hypothetical underlying return range is provided for illustrative purposes only. The actual underlying return may be below -50% and you therefore may lose up to 100% of your principal amount.

Key Risks

An investment in the Notes involves significant risks. Some of the risks that apply to the Notes are summarized here, but we urge you to read the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the Notes generally in the “Risk Factors” section of the product supplement. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers before you invest in the Notes.

¨ Risk of loss at maturity — The Notes do not guarantee any return of principal at maturity. The return on the Notes depends on (i) whether the final basket price is below the trigger price and (ii) the direction of and percentage change in the final basket price of the underlying basket relative to its initial basket price. If the final basket price is below the trigger price, you will be fully exposed to any negative performance of the underlying basket on the final valuation date and you may lose some or all of your principal. Specifically, in such case, you will lose 1% (or a fraction thereof) of your principal at maturity for each 1% (or a fraction thereof) that the underlying return is less than zero.

¨ The contingent repayment of principal applies only at maturity — The contingent repayment of your principal is only available if you hold your Notes to maturity. If you are able to sell your Notes prior to maturity in the secondary market, you may have to sell them at a loss relative to your initial investment even if the price of the underlying basket is above the trigger price. You should be willing to hold your Notes to maturity.

¨ Your growth potential is limited — The Notes do not offer full participation in any positive appreciation of the underlying basket. The Notes allow for participation in any positive underlying return that exceeds the contingent minimum return only up to the predetermined maximum return of 25%. In no event will the return on your Notes be greater than the maximum return. Since the maximum payment amount on the Notes is capped, you will not accrue or benefit from a positive underlying return in excess of an amount equal to the predetermined maximum return. As a result, the return on an investment in the Notes may be less than the return on a hypothetical direct investment in the underlying basket or the basket equities.

¨ You will not be entitled to any contingent minimum return if the final basket price is below the trigger price — If the final basket price of the underlying basket is below the trigger price you will not be entitled to receive the contingent minimum return of 7.75% on the Notes and you will be fully exposed at maturity to any depreciation in the underlying basket. Under these circumstances, if the final basket price is less than the trigger price, you will lose 1% of the principal amount of your investment for every 1% decrease in the final basket price as compared to the initial basket price. Under these circumstances, you may lose some or all of your investment at maturity and you will be fully exposed to any depreciation in price of the underlying basket.

¨ No interest payments — UBS will not pay any interest with respect to the Notes.

¨ Credit risk of UBS — The Notes are unsubordinated, unsecured debt obligations of the issuer, UBS, and are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. Any payment to be made on the Notes, including any repayment of principal, depends on the ability of UBS to satisfy its obligations as they come due. As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness of UBS may affect the market value of the Notes and, in the event UBS were to default on its obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the terms of the Notes and you could lose your entire initial investment.

¨ Market risk — The price of any basket equity can rise or fall sharply due to factors specific to that basket equity and the issuer of such basket equity such as price volatility, earnings, financial conditions, corporate, industry and regulatory developments, management changes and decisions and other events, as well as general market factors, such as general stock market volatility and levels, interest rates and economic and political conditions.

¨ Owning the Notes is not the same as owning the basket equities — The return on your Notes may not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned the basket equities. For instance, you will not receive or be entitled to receive any dividend payments or other distributions during the term of the Notes, and any such dividends or distributions will not be factored into the calculation of the payment at maturity on your Notes. In addition, as an owner of the Notes, you will not have voting rights or any other rights that a holder of the basket equities may have.

¨ No assurance that the investment view implicit in the Notes will be successful — It is impossible to predict whether and the extent to which the price of the underlying basket will rise or fall. There can be no assurance that the price of the underlying basket will rise above the initial basket price or that the final basket price will be above the trigger price. The price of the underlying basket will be influenced by complex and interrelated political, economic, financial and other factors that affect the issuer(s) of the basket equities. You should be willing to accept the risks of owning equities in general and the basket equities in particular, and the risk of losing some or all of your initial investment.

¨ Changes in the prices of the basket equities may offset each other — The Notes are linked to an equally weighted basket comprised of the basket equities. Where the market price of one or more of the basket equities appreciates, the market price of one or more of the other basket equities may not appreciate by the same amount or may even decline. Therefore, in determining whether the final basket price and the payment at maturity on the Notes, increases in the prices of one or more of the basket equities may be moderated, or offset, by lesser increases or declines in the prices of one or more of the other basket equities.

¨ The Notes are considered “hold to maturity” products. Generally, there is no liquid market for the Notes.

7

¨ There may be little or no secondary market for the Notes — The Notes will not be listed or displayed on any securities exchange or any electronic communications network. There can be no assurance that a secondary market for the Notes will develop. UBS Securities LLC and other affiliates of UBS may make a market in the Notes, although they are not required to do so and may stop making a market at any time. The price, if any, at which you may be able to sell your Notes prior to maturity could be at a substantial discount from the issue price and to the intrinsic value of the product; and as a result, you may suffer substantial losses.

¨ Price of Notes prior to maturity — The market price of the Notes will be influenced by many unpredictable and interrelated factors, including the price of the underlying basket; the volatility of the basket equities; the dividends paid on the basket equities; the time remaining to the maturity of the Notes; interest rates in the markets in general; geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political and regulatory, judicial or other events; and the creditworthiness of UBS.

¨ Impact of fees on the secondary market price of the Notes — Generally, the price of the Notes in the secondary market is likely to be lower than the issue price to public since the issue price to public included, and the secondary market prices are likely to exclude, commissions, hedging costs or other compensation paid with respect to the Notes.

¨ Potential UBS impact on price — Trading or transactions by UBS or its affiliates in the basket equities and/or over-the-counter options, futures or other instruments with returns linked to the performance of the underlying basket may adversely affect the performance and, therefore, the market value of the Notes.

¨ Potential conflict of interest — UBS and its affiliates may engage in business with the issuers of the basket equities or trading activities related to the underlying basket or any basket equity, which may present a conflict between the interests of UBS and you, as a holder of the Notes. There are also potential conflicts of interest between you and the calculation agent, which will be an affiliate of UBS. The calculation agent will determine the underlying return and the payment at maturity of the Notes based on the final basket price of the underlying basket on the final valuation date. The calculation agent can postpone the determination of the underlying return or the maturity date if a market disruption event occurs and is continuing on the final valuation date.

¨ Potentially inconsistent research, opinions or recommendations by UBS — UBS and its affiliates publish research from time to time on financial markets and other matters that may influence the value of the Notes, or express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the Notes. Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by UBS or its affiliates may not be consistent with each other and may be modified from time to time without notice. Investors should make their own independent investigation of the merits of investing in the Notes and the underlying basket to which the Notes are linked.

¨ Uncertain tax treatment — Significant aspects of the tax treatment of the Notes are uncertain. You should consult your tax advisor about your own tax situation. See “What Are the Tax Consequences of the Notes” beginning on page 9 .

What Are the Tax Consequences of the Notes?

The United States federal income tax consequences of your investment in the Notes are uncertain. Some of these tax consequences are summarized below, but we urge you to read the more detailed discussion in “Supplemental U.S. Tax Considerations” beginning on page PS-41 of the product supplement and discuss the tax consequences of your particular situation with your tax advisor.

There are no statutory provisions, regulations, published rulings or judicial decisions addressing the characterization for U.S. federal income tax purposes of securities with terms that are substantially the same as the Notes. Accordingly, the tax treatment of the Notes is uncertain. Pursuant to the terms of the Notes, UBS and you agree, in the absence of a statutory, regulatory, administrative or judicial ruling to the contrary, to characterize your Notes as a pre-paid derivative contract with respect to the underlying basket. If your Notes are so treated, you should generally not accrue any income with respect to the Notes prior to sale, exchange or maturity of the Notes and you should generally recognize capital gain or loss upon the sale, exchange or maturity of your Notes in an amount equal to the difference between the amount you receive at such time and the amount you paid for your Notes. Such gain or loss should be long-term capital gain or loss if you have held your Notes for more than one year.

In the opinion of our counsel, Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP, it would be reasonable to treat your Notes in the manner described above. However, because there is no authority that specifically addresses the tax treatment of the Notes, it is possible that your Notes could alternatively be treated for tax purposes in the manner described under “Supplemental U.S. Tax Considerations — Alternative Treatments” on page PS-42 of the product supplement.

In 2007, the Internal Revenue Service released a notice that may affect the taxation of holders of the Notes. According to the notice, the Internal Revenue Service and the Treasury Department are actively considering whether the holder of an instrument similar to the Notes should be required to accrue ordinary income on a current basis, and they are seeking taxpayer comments on the subject. It is not possible to determine what guidance they will ultimately issue, if any. It is possible, however, that under such guidance, holders of the Notes will ultimately be required to accrue income currently and this could be applied on a retroactive basis. The Internal Revenue Service and the Treasury Department are also considering other relevant issues, including whether additional gain or loss from such instruments should be treated as ordinary or capital, whether foreign holders of such instruments should be subject to withholding tax on any deemed income accruals, and whether the special “constructive ownership rules” of Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) above should be applied to such instruments. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors concerning the significance, and the potential impact, of the above considerations. Except to the extent otherwise required by law, UBS intends to treat your Notes for United States federal income tax purposes in accordance with the treatment described above and under “Supplemental U.S. Tax Considerations” on page PS-41 of the product supplement, unless and until such time as the Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service determine that some other treatment is more appropriate.

Moreover, in 2007, legislation was introduced in Congress that, if it had been enacted, would have required holders of Notes purchased after the bill was enacted to accrue interest income over the term of the Notes despite the fact that there will be no interest payments over the term of the Notes. It is not possible to predict whether a similar or identical bill will be enacted in the future, or whether any such bill would affect the tax treatment of your Notes.

Non-U.S. Holders — Additional Tax Considerations — Non-U.S. Holders should note that recently proposed Treasury regulations, if finalized in their current form, could impose a withholding tax at a rate of 30% (subject to reduction under an applicable income tax treaty) on amounts attributable to U.S.-source dividends (including, potentially, adjustments to account for extraordinary dividends) that are paid or “deemed paid” after December 31, 2012 under certain financial instruments, if certain other conditions are met. While significant aspects of the application of these proposed regulations to the Notes are uncertain, if these proposed regulations were finalized in their current form, we (or other withholding agents) might determine that withholding is required with respect to the Notes held by a Non-U.S. Holder or that the Non-U.S. Holder must provide information to establish that withholding is not required. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisers regarding the potential application of these proposed regulations. If withholding is so required, we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts so withheld.

Specified Foreign Financial Assets — Under recently enacted legislation, individuals that own “specified foreign financial assets” in excess of certain thresholds may be required to file information with respect to such assets with their tax returns, especially if such individuals hold such assets outside the custody of a U.S. financial institution. You are urged to consult your tax advisor as to the application of this legislation to your ownership of the Notes.

PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS OF THE NOTES SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF THE NOTES.
