Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (PLUS SM ) due March 3, 2016

$14,861,380 Based on the Value of the shares of the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund

The Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (the “PLUS SM ”) offer leveraged exposure to the shares of the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund (the “underlying equity”). The PLUS SM are for investors who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income and upside above the maximum payment at maturity in exchange for the leverage feature which applies to a limited range of positive performance of the underlying equity. At maturity, if the closing price of the underlying equity on the valuation date (the “final price”) is less than the initial price, the investor is fully exposed to a loss of their initial investment that is proportionate to the decline in the closing price of the underlying equity from the pricing date to the valuation date (the “underlying return”). At maturity, if the underlying return is positive, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment plus the leveraged upside performance of the underlying equity, subject to the maximum payment at maturity. Accordingly, the PLUS SM do not guarantee any return of principal at maturity. The PLUS SM are unsubordinated, unsecured debt obligations issued by UBS AG (“UBS”), and all payments on the PLUS SM are subject to the credit risk of UBS. If UBS were to default on its payment obligations you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the PLUS SM and you could lose some or all of your initial investment.

Notice to investors: the PLUS SM are significantly riskier than conventional debt instruments.

This market risk is in addition to the credit risk inherent in purchasing a debt obligation of UBS. You should not purchase the PLUS SM if you do not understand or are not comfortable with the significant risks involved in investing in the PLUS SM .

You should carefully consider the risks described under “Risk Factors” beginning on page 14 and under “Risk Factors” beginning on page PS-14 of the accompanying product supplement before purchasing any PLUS SM . Events relating to any of those risks, or other risks and uncertainties, could adversely affect the market value of, and the return on, your PLUS SM . You may lose some or all of your initial investment in the PLUS SM .

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any other regulatory body has approved or disapproved of these PLUS SM or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this pricing supplement, the accompanying product supplement or the accompanying prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The PLUS SM are not bank deposits and are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency.

Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (PLUSSM) due March 3, 2016 $14,861,380 Based on the Value of the shares of the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund

Investment Overview

Performance Leveraged Upside Securities

The PLUS SM Based on the Value of the shares of the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund due March 3, 2016 can be used:

■ As an alternative to direct exposure to the underlying equity that enhances the return for a certain range of positive performance of the underlying equity; however, by investing in the PLUS SM , you will not be entitled to receive any dividends paid with respect to the underlying equity or the securities that constitute the underlying equity (the “underlying constituents”). You should carefully consider whether an investment that does not provide for dividends or periodic interest payments is appropriate for you.

■ To enhance returns and outperform the underlying equity in a moderately bullish scenario.

■ To achieve similar levels of upside exposure to the underlying equity as a direct investment while using fewer dollars by taking advantage of the leverage factor.

Maturity: Approximately 15 months
Leverage factor: 3.0
Maximum payment at maturity: $11.95 (119.50% of the stated principal amount)
Minimum payment at maturity: None. Investors may lose all of their initial investment in the PLUS SM
Coupon: None

Key Investment Rationale

Investors can use the PLUS SM to leverage returns by a factor of 3.0, up to the maximum payment at maturity.

Investors will not be entitled to receive any dividends paid with respect to the underlying constituents. You should carefully consider whether an investment that does not provide for dividends or periodic interest is appropriate for you. The payment scenarios below do not show any effect of lost dividend yield over the term of the PLUS SM .

Leveraged Performance The PLUS SM offer investors an opportunity to capture enhanced returns relative to a direct investment in the underlying equity within a certain range of positive performance.

Upside Scenario The underlying equity increases in value from the pricing date to the valuation date and, at maturity, the PLUS SM redeem for the stated principal amount of $10 plus $10 times 3.0 times the underlying return, up to the maximum payment at maturity.

Par Scenario The final price is equal to the initial price. In this case, you receive the full stated principal amount at maturity.

Downside Scenario The final price is less than the initial price and, at maturity, the PLUS SM redeem for less than the stated principal amount, if anything, resulting in a loss of an investors initial investment proportionate to the underlying return. (Example: if the underlying return is -35%, the PLUS SM will redeem for $6.50, or 65% of the stated principal amount.)

General Information
Listing: The PLUS SM will not be listed on any securities exchange.
CUSIP: 90274B758
ISIN: US90274B7588
Tax considerations: The United States federal income tax consequences of your investment in the PLUS SM 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-44 of the accompanying 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 PLUS SM . Pursuant to the terms of the PLUS SM , UBS and you agree, in the absence of an administrative or judicial ruling to the contrary, to characterize your PLUS SM as a pre-paid derivative contract with respect to the underlying equity. If your PLUS SM are so treated, you should generally recognize gain or loss upon the sale or maturity of your PLUS SM in an amount equal to the difference between the amount you receive at such time and the amount you paid for your PLUS SM . Subject to the “constructive ownership” rules discussed below, such gain or loss should generally be long-term capital gain or loss if you have held the PLUS SM for more than one year (otherwise, such gain or loss would be short-term capital gain or loss).
Because the PLUS SM are linked to the shares of an exchange-traded fund, there is a risk that an investment in the PLUS SM could be treated as a “constructive ownership transaction” within the meaning of Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). A “constructive ownership transaction” includes a contract under which an investor will receive payment equal to or credit for the future value of any equity interest in certain “pass-thru entities” (including regulated investment companies such as ETFs, real estate investment trusts and passive foreign investment companies). Under the “constructive ownership” rules, if an investment in the PLUS SM is treated as a “constructive ownership transaction,” any long-term capital gain recognized by a U.S. holder (as defined under “Supplemental U.S. Tax
Consideration” on page PS-46 of the accompanying product supplement) in respect of a PLUS SM would be recharacterized as ordinary income to the extent such gain exceeds the amount of “net underlying long-term capital gain”(as defined in Section 1260 of the Code) of the U.S. holder (the “Excess Gain”). In addition, an interest charge would also apply to any deemed underpayment of tax in respect of any Excess Gain to the extent such gain would have resulted in gross income inclusion for the U.S. holder in taxable years prior to the taxable year of the sale, exchange or maturity of the PLUS SM (assuming such income accrued such that the amount in each successive year is equal to the income in the prior year increased at a constant rate equal to the applicable federal rate as of the date of sale, exchange or maturity of the PLUS SM ).
It is not clear how the “net underlying long-term capital gain” is determined with respect to the PLUS SM . Under Section 1260 of the Code, the net underlying long-term capital gain is generally the net long-term capital gain a taxpayer would have recognized by investing in the underlying “pass-thru entity” at the inception of the constructive ownership transaction and selling on the date the constructive ownership transaction is closed out (i.e. at maturity or earlier disposition). It is possible that because the U.S. holder does not share in distributions made on the underlying equity, these distributions could be excluded from the calculation of the amount and character of gain, if any, that would have been realized had the U.S. holder held the underlying equity directly and that the application of constructive ownership rules may not recharacterize adversely a significant portion of the
long-term capital gain you may recognize with respect to the PLUS SM . However, it is also possible that all or a portion of your gain with respect to the PLUS SM could be treated as “Excess Gain” where, as is the case here, the underlying equity is an ETF, the “net underlying long-term capital gain” could equal the amount of long-term capital gain a U.S. holder would have recognized if on the issue date of the PLUS SM the holder had invested the stated principal amount of the PLUS SM in shares of the underlying equity and sold those shares for their fair market value on the date the PLUS SM are sold, exchanged or retired. Thus, if such treatment applies, it is not entirely clear to what extent any long-term capital gain recognized by a U.S. holder in respect of a PLUS SM would be recharacterized as ordinary income. Accordingly, U.S. holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the potential
application of the “constructive ownership” rules.

Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (PLUSSM) due March 3, 2016 $14,861,380 Based on the Value of the shares of the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund

In the opinion of our counsel, Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP, it would be reasonable to treat your PLUS SM in the manner described above. However, because there is no authority that specifically addresses the tax treatment of the PLUS SM , it is possible that your PLUS SM could alternatively be treated for tax purposes as a single contingent debt instrument, or pursuant to some other characterization (including possible treatment as a “constructive ownership transaction”), such that the timing and character of your income from the PLUS SM could differ materially from the treatment described above, as discussed further under “Supplemental U.S. Tax Considerations — Alternative Treatments” on page PS-46 of the accompanying product supplement. If the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) were successful in asserting an alternative treatment of
the PLUS SM , the timing and character of income on your PLUS SM could differ materially from our description herein. The risk that the PLUS SM may be recharacterized for the United States federal income tax purposes as instruments treated as a single-contingent debt instrument or otherwise giving rise to current ordinary income (even before receipt of any cash) and short-term capital gain or loss (even if held for more than one year) is higher than with other equity-linked securities that do not guarantee full repayment of principal.
Also, the IRS, for example, might assert that the PLUS SM should be recharacterized for United States federal income tax purposes as instruments giving rise to current ordinary income (even before receipt of any cash).
In 2007, the IRS released a notice that may affect the taxation of holders of the PLUS SM . According to the notice, the IRS and the Treasury Department are actively considering whether the holder of an instrument such as the PLUS SM should be required to accrue ordinary income on a current basis. 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 PLUS SM will ultimately be required to accrue income currently and this could be applied on a retroactive basis. The IRS 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 Code 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 PLUS SM for United States federal income tax purposes in accordance with the treatment described above and under “Supplemental U.S. Tax Considerations” beginning on page PS-44 of the accompanying product supplement, unless and until such time as the Treasury Department and the IRS determine that some other treatment is more appropriate.
Medicare Tax on Net Investment Income. U.S. holders that are individuals, estates, and certain trusts are subject to an additional 3.8% Medicare tax on all or a portion of their “net investment income,” which may include any income or gain realized with respect to the PLUS SM , to the extent of their net investment income that when added to their other modified adjusted gross income, exceeds $200,000 for an unmarried individual, $250,000 for a married taxpayer filing a joint return (or a surviving spouse), or $125,000 for a married individual filing a separate return. The 3.8% Medicare tax is determined in a different manner than the income tax. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors with respect to their consequences with respect to the 3.8% Medicare tax.
Specified Foreign Financial Assets. Certain individuals that own “specified foreign financial assets” may be required to file information with respect to such assets with their tax returns, especially if such assets are held 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 PLUS SM .
Non-U.S. Holders . Subject to Section 871(m) of the Code and FATCA (as discussed below), if you are not a U.S. holder, you should generally not be subject to United States withholding tax with respect to payments on your PLUS SM or to generally applicable information reporting and backup withholding requirements with respect to payments on your PLUS SM if you comply with certain certification and identification requirements as to your foreign status (by providing us (and/or the applicable withholding agent) with a fully completed and validly executed applicable IRS Form W-8. Gain from the sale or exchange of a PLUS SM or settlement at maturity generally should not be subject to U.S. tax unless such gain is effectively connected with a trade or business conducted by the non-U.S. holder in the United States or unless the non-U.S. holder is a non-resident alien individual and is
present in the U.S. for 183 days or more during the taxable year of such sale, exchange or settlement and certain other conditions are satisfied, or has certain other present or former connections with the United States.

| Section 871(m) of the Code requires withholding (up to 30%, depending on whether a treaty applies) on certain financial instruments to the extent that the payments or deemed payments on the financial instruments are contingent upon or determined by reference to U.S.-source dividends. Under proposed U.S. Treasury Department regulations (if finalized in their current form), certain payments or deemed payments with respect to certain equity-linked instruments (“specified ELIs”) that reference U.S. stocks (including shares of the underlying equity and the underlying constituents), may be treated as dividend equivalents (“dividend equivalents”) that are subject to U.S. withholding tax at a rate of 30% (or lower treaty rate). Under these proposed regulations, withholding may be required even in the absence of any actual dividend related payment or adjustment made pursuant to the terms of the instrument. If adopted
in their current form, the proposed regulations may impose a withholding tax on payments or deemed payments made on the securities on or after January 1, 2016 that are treated as dividend equivalents for securities acquired on or after March 5, 2014. Under a recent IRS Notice, the IRS announced that the IRS and the Treasury Department intend that final Treasury regulations will provide that “specified ELIs” will exclude equity-linked instruments issued prior to 90 days after the date the final Treasury regulations are published. Accordingly, we generally expect that non-U.S. holders of the securities should not be subject to tax under Section 871(m). However, it is possible that such withholding tax could apply to the securities under these proposed rules if the non-U.S. holder enters into certain subsequent transactions in respect of the underlying indices. If withholding is required, we (or the applicable paying agent) would be entitled to withhold such taxes without being
required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts so withheld. Non-U.S. holders should consult with their tax advisors regarding the application of Section 871(m) and the regulations thereunder in respect of their acquisition and ownership of the PLUS SM . |
| Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act. The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) was enacted on March 18, 2010, and imposes a 30% U.S. withholding tax on “withholdable payments” (i.e., certain U.S. source payments, including interest (and OID), dividends, other fixed or determinable annual or periodical gain, profits, and income, and on the gross proceeds from a disposition of property of a type which can produce U.S. source interest or dividends) and “pass-thru payments” (i.e., certain payments attributable to withholdable payments) made to certain foreign financial institutions (and certain of their affiliates) unless the payee foreign financial institution agrees (or is required), among other things, to disclose the identity of any U.S. individual with an account of the institution (or the relevant affiliate) and to annually report certain information about such account.
FATCA also requires withholding agents making withholdable payments to certain foreign entities that do not disclose the name, address, and taxpayer identification number of any substantial U.S. owners (or certify that they do not have any substantial United States owners) withhold tax at a rate of 30%. Under certain circumstances, a holder may be eligible for refunds or credits of such taxes. |
| Pursuant to final and temporary Treasury regulations, the withholding and reporting requirements under FATCA will generally apply to certain “withholdable payments” made on or after July 1, 2014, certain gross proceeds on sale or disposition occurring after December 31, 2016, and certain foreign pass-thru payments made after December 31, 2016 (or, if later, the date that final regulations defining the term “foreign pass-thru payment” are published). Pursuant to these Treasury regulations, withholding tax under FATCA would not be imposed on foreign pass-thru payments pursuant to obligations that are executed on or before the date that is six months after final regulations regarding such payments are published (and such obligations are not subsequently modified in a material manner) or on withholdable payments solely because the relevant obligation is treated as giving rise to a dividend equivalent (pursuant
to Section 871(m) and the regulations thereunder) where such obligation is executed on or before the date that is six months after the date on which obligations of its type are first treated as giving rise to dividend equivalents. If, however, withholding is required, we (or the applicable paying agent) will not be required to pay additional amounts with respect to the amounts so withheld. |
| Significant aspects of the application of FATCA are not currently clear. Investors should consult their own advisor about the application of FATCA, in particular if they may be classified as financial institutions (or if they hold their PLUS SM through a foreign entity) under the FATCA rules. |
| Proposed Legislation |
| In 2007, legislation was introduced in Congress that, if enacted, would have required holders of securities purchased after the bill was enacted to accrue interest income over the term of the securities despite the fact that there will be no interest payments over the term of the securities. 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 securities. |
| Furthermore, in 2013, House Ways and Means Committee has released in draft form certain proposed legislation relating to financial instruments. If enacted, the effect of this legislation generally would be to require instruments such as the PLUS SM to be marked to market on an annual basis with all gains and losses to be treated as ordinary, subject to certain exceptions. You are urged to consult your tax advisor regarding the draft legislation and its possible impact on you. |

Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (PLUSSM) due March 3, 2016 $14,861,380 Based on the Value of the shares of the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund

Prospective purchasers of the PLUS SM are urged to consult their own tax advisors concerning the application of U.S. federal income tax laws to their particular situations, as well as any tax consequences of the purchase, beneficial ownership and disposition of the PLUS SM arising under the laws of any state, local, non-U.S. or other taxing jurisdiction.
Trustee: U.S. Bank Trust National Association
Calculation agent: UBS Securities LLC
Use of proceeds and hedging: We will use the net proceeds we receive from the sale of the PLUS SM for the purposes we describe in the accompanying product supplement under “Use of Proceeds.” We or our affiliates may also use those proceeds in transactions intended to hedge our obligations under the PLUS SM as described below.
In connection with the sale of the PLUS SM , we or our affiliates may enter into hedging transactions involving the execution of swaps, futures and option transactions or purchases and sales of PLUS SM before, on and after the pricing date of the PLUS SM . From time to time, we or our affiliates may enter into additional hedging transactions or unwind those we have entered into.
We or our affiliates may acquire a long or short position in securities similar to the securities from time to time and may, in our or their sole discretion, hold or resell those securities.
The hedging activity discussed above may adversely affect the market value of the securities from time to time and payment on the securities at maturity. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 14 of this document for a discussion of these adverse effects.
Supplemental information concerning plan of distribution (conflicts of interest); secondary markets (if any): Pursuant to the terms of a distribution agreement, UBS has agreed to sell to UBS Securities LLC, and UBS Securities LLC has agreed to purchase from UBS, the stated principal amount of the PLUS SM specified on the front cover of this document at the price to public less a fee of $0.225 per $10.00 stated principal amount of the PLUS SM . UBS Securities LLC has agreed to resell all of the PLUS SM to Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC (also known as “Morgan Stanley Wealth Management”) with a discount reflecting a fixed sales commission of $0.225 per $10.00 stated principal amount of PLUS SM that Morgan Stanley Wealth Management sells.
UBS, UBS Securities LLC or any other affiliate of UBS may use this document, the accompanying product supplement and the accompanying prospectus in a market-making transaction for any PLUS SM after their initial sale. In connection with this offering, UBS, UBS Securities LLC, any other affiliate of UBS or any other securities dealers may distribute this document, the accompanying product supplement and the accompanying prospectus electronically. Unless UBS or its agent informs the purchaser otherwise in the confirmation of sale, this document, the accompanying product supplement and the accompanying prospectus are being used in a market-making transaction.
Conflicts of Interest — UBS Securities LLC is an affiliate of UBS and, as such, has a “conflict of interest” in this offering within the meaning of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) Rule 5121. In addition, UBS will receive the net proceeds (excluding the underwriting discount) from the initial public offering of the PLUS SM and, thus creates an additional conflict of interest within the meaning of FINRA Rule 5121. Consequently, the offering is being conducted in compliance with the provisions of Rule 5121. UBS Securities LLC is not permitted to sell the securities in this offering to an account over which it exercises discretionary authority without the prior specific written approval of the account holder.
UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates may offer to buy or sell the PLUS SM in the secondary market (if any) at prices greater than UBS’ internal valuation — The value of the PLUS SM at any time will vary based on many factors that cannot be predicted. However, the price (not including UBS Securities LLC’s or any affiliate’s customary bid-ask spreads) at which UBS Securities LLC or any affiliate would offer to buy or sell the PLUS SM immediately after the pricing date in the secondary market is expected to exceed the estimated initial value of the PLUS SM as determined by reference to our internal pricing models. The amount of the excess will decline to zero on a straight line basis over a period ending no later than 6 weeks after the pricing date, provided that UBS Securities LLC may shorten the period based on various factors, including the magnitude
of purchases and other negotiated provisions with selling agents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates are not required to make a market for the PLUS SM and may stop making a market at any time. For more information about secondary market offers and the estimated initial value of the PLUS SM , see “Risk Factors — Fair value considerations” and “Risk Factors — Limited or no secondary market and secondary market price considerations” on pages 14 and 15 of this pricing supplement.

How the PLUS SM Work

Payoff Diagram

The payoff diagram below illustrates the payment at maturity on the PLUS SM for a range of hypothetical percentage changes in the closing value of the underlying equity.

Investors will not be entitled to receive any dividends paid with respect to the underlying constituents. You should carefully consider whether an investment that does not provide for dividends or periodic interest is appropriate for you. The payment scenarios below do not show any effect of lost dividend yield over the term of the PLUS SM .

The graph is based on the following terms:

Stated principal amount: $10 per PLUS SM
Leverage factor: 3.0
Maximum payment at maturity: $11.95 (119.50% of the stated principal amount) per PLUS SM

Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (PLUSSM) due March 3, 2016 $14,861,380 Based on the Value of the shares of the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund

How it works

■ Upside Scenario. If the final price is greater than the initial price, investors will receive the $10 stated principal amount plus 3.0 times the appreciation of the underlying equity over the term of the PLUS SM , subject to the maximum payment at maturity. Therefore, under the terms of the PLUS SM , an investor would realize the maximum payment at maturity at a final price that is equal to or greater than 106.50% of the initial price.

■ If the final price has appreciated from the initial price by 2%, investors will receive a 6.0% return, or $10.60 per PLUS SM .

■ If the final price has appreciated from the initial price by 30%, investors will receive only the maximum payment at maturity of $11.95 per PLUS SM .

■ Par Scenario. If the final price is equal to the initial price, investors will receive an amount equal to the $10 stated principal amount.

■ Downside Scenario. If the final price is less than the initial price, investors will be exposed to the underlying return. Specifically, investors will lose 1% of the stated principal amount for each 1% decline in the underlying equity.

■ If the underlying equity depreciates 35%, investors would lose 35% of the stated principal amount and receive only $6.50 per PLUS SM at maturity, or 65% of the stated principal amount. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the PLUS SM and investors may lose some or all of their initial investment.

Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (PLUSSM) due March 3, 2016 $14,861,380 Based on the Value of the shares of the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund

Payment at Maturity

At maturity, investors will receive for each $10 stated principal amount of PLUS SM that they hold an amount in cash based upon the final price of the underlying equity, as determined as follows:

If the final price is greater than the initial price:

$10 + leveraged upside payment, subject to the maximum payment at maturity

Principal Principal Leveraged Upside Payment — Leverage Factor Underlying return
$10 + [ $10 × 3.0 × ( final price - initial price initial price )]

In no event will the payment at maturity be greater than the maximum payment at maturity.

If the final price is equal to the initial price:

the stated principal amount of $10

If the final price is less than the initial price:

$10 + ($10 × underlying return)

Principal — $10 + Principal — [ $10 × ( Underlying return — final price - initial price initial price )]

Accordingly, if the final price is less than the initial price, UBS will pay you less than the stated principal amount, if anything, resulting in a loss on your investment that is proportionate to the underlying return. You may lose some or all of your initial investment.

Risk Factors

The following is a non-exhaustive list of certain key risk factors for investors in the PLUS SM . For further discussion of these and other risks, you should read the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the accompanying product supplement. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors before you invest in the PLUS SM .

■ The PLUS SM do not pay interest or guarantee return of principal and your investment in the PLUS SM may result in a loss — The terms of the PLUS SM differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that the PLUS SM do not pay interest or guarantee the return of any of the stated principal amount at maturity. If the final price is less than the initial price, you will lose some or all of your investment in the PLUS SM in an amount proportionate to the underlying return. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the PLUS SM , and, accordingly, you could lose some or all of your initial investment.

■ The leverage factor applies only if you hold the PLUS SM to maturity — You should be willing to hold your PLUS SM to maturity. If you are able to sell your PLUS SM prior to maturity in the secondary market, the price you receive will likely not reflect the full economic value of the leverage factor and the return you realize may be less than 3.0 times the performance of the underlying equity even if such performance is positive and does not exceed the maximum payment. You can receive the full benefit of the leverage factor and earn the potential maximum payment at maturity from UBS only if you hold the PLUS SM to maturity.

■ Your potential return on the PLUS SM is limited to the maximum payment at maturity — The return potential of the PLUS SM is limited to the maximum payment at maturity of $11.95. Therefore, you will not benefit from any positive performance in excess of an amount that, when multiplied by the leverage factor, exceeds the maximum payment at maturity and your return on the PLUS SM may be less than it would be in a hypothetical direct investment in the underlying equity or the underlying constituents.

■ The PLUS SM are subject to the credit risk of UBS AG, and any actual or anticipated changes to our credit ratings or credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the PLUS SM — Investors are dependent on UBS AG’s ability to pay all amounts due on the PLUS SM , and therefore investors are subject to our credit risk and to changes in the market’s view of our creditworthiness. Any actual or anticipated decline in our credit ratings or increase in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking our credit risk is likely to affect adversely the market value of the PLUS SM . If we were to default on our payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the PLUS SM and you could lose some or all of your initial investment.

■ Market risk — The return on the PLUS SM is directly linked to the performance of the underlying equity and indirectly linked to the performance of the underlying constituents. The price of the underlying equity can rise or fall sharply due to factors specific to that underlying equity or the underlying constituents. These factors may include 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 market volatility and levels, interest rates and economic and political conditions. We urge you to review financial and other information filed periodically by the underlying equity with the SEC. You may lose some or all of your initial investment if the underlying return is negative.

■ Fair value considerations.

■ The issue price you pay for the PLUS SM exceeds their estimated initial value — The issue price you pay for the PLUS SM exceeds their estimated initial value as of the pricing date due to the inclusion in the issue price of the underwriting discount, hedging costs, issuance costs and projected profits. As of the close of the relevant markets on the pricing date, we have determined the estimated initial value of the PLUS SM by reference to our internal pricing models and it is set forth in this pricing supplement. The pricing models used to determine the estimated initial value of the PLUS SM incorporate certain variables, including the price and volatility of the underlying equity and underlying constituents, expected dividends on the underlying equity and the underlying constituents, if applicable, prevailing interest rates, the term of the PLUS SM and our internal funding rate. Our internal funding rate is typically lower than the rate we would pay to issue conventional fixed or floating rate debt securities of a similar term. The underwriting discount, hedging costs, issuance costs, projected profits and the difference in rates will reduce the economic value of the PLUS SM to you. Due to these factors, the estimated initial value of the PLUS SM as of the pricing date is less than the issue price you pay for the PLUS SM .

■ The estimated initial value is a theoretical price; the actual price that you may be able to sell your PLUS SM in any secondary market (if any) at any time after the pricing date may differ from the estimated initial value — The value of your PLUS SM at any time will vary based on many factors, including the factors described above and in “— Market risk” above and is impossible to predict. Furthermore, the pricing models that we use are proprietary and rely in part on certain assumptions about future events, which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, after the pricing date, if you attempt to sell the PLUS SM in the secondary market, the actual value you would receive may differ, perhaps materially, from the estimated initial value of the PLUS SM determined by reference to our internal pricing models. The estimated initial value of the PLUS SM does not represent a minimum or maximum price at which we or any of our affiliates would be willing to purchase your PLUS SM in any secondary market at any time.

■ Our actual profits may be greater or less than the differential between the estimated initial value and the issue price of the PLUS SM as of the pricing date — We may determine the economic terms of the PLUS SM , as well as hedge our obligations, at least in part, prior to the pricing date. In addition, there may be ongoing costs to us to maintain and/or adjust any hedges and such hedges are often imperfect. Therefore, our actual profits (or potentially, losses) in issuing the PLUS SM cannot be determined as of the pricing date and any such differential between the estimated initial value and the issue price of the PLUS SM as of the pricing date does not reflect our actual profits. Ultimately, our actual profits will be known only at the maturity of the PLUS SM .

■ Limited or no secondary market and secondary market price considerations.

■ There may be little or no secondary market for the PLUS SM — The PLUS SM 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 PLUS SM will develop. UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates may make a market in each offering of the PLUS SM , although they are not required to do so and may stop making a market at any time. If you are able to sell your PLUS SM prior to maturity, you may have to sell them at a substantial loss. The estimated initial value of the PLUS SM does not represent a minimum or maximum price at which we or any of our affiliates would be willing to purchase your PLUS SM in any secondary market at any time.

■ The price at which UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates may offer to buy the PLUS SM in the secondary market (if any) may be greater than UBS’ valuation of the PLUS SM at that time, greater than any other secondary market prices provided by unaffiliated dealers (if any) and, depending on your broker, greater than the valuation provided on your customer account statements — For a limited period of time following the issuance of the PLUS SM , UBS Securities LLC or its affiliates may offer to buy or sell such PLUS SM at a price that exceeds (i) our valuation of the PLUS SM at that time based on our internal pricing models, (ii) any secondary market prices provided by unaffiliated dealers (if any) and (iii) depending on your broker, the valuation provided on customer account statements. The price that UBS Securities LLC may initially offer to buy such PLUS SM following issuance will exceed the valuations indicated by our internal pricing models due to the inclusion for a limited period of time of the aggregate value of the underwriting discount, hedging costs, issuance costs and theoretical projected trading profit. The portion of such amounts included in our price will decline to zero on a straight line basis over a period ending no later than the date specified under “Supplemental information concerning plan of distribution (conflicts of interest); secondary markets (if any).” Thereafter, if UBS Securities LLC or an affiliate makes secondary markets in the PLUS SM , it will do so at prices that reflect our estimated value determined by reference to our internal pricing models at that time. The temporary positive differential relative to our internal pricing models arises from requests from and arrangements made by UBS Securities LLC with the selling agents of structured debt securities such as the PLUS SM . As described above, UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates are not required to make a market for the PLUS SM and may stop making a market at any time. The price at which UBS Securities LLC or an affiliate may make secondary markets at any time (if at all) will also reflect its then current bid-ask spread for similar sized trades of structured debt securities. UBS Securities LLC reflects this temporary positive differential on its customer statements. Investors should inquire as to the valuation provided on customer account statements provided by unaffiliated dealers.

■ Price of the PLUS SM prior to maturity — The market price of the PLUS SM will be influenced by many unpredictable and interrelated factors including the price of the underlying equity and underlying constituents; the volatility of the underlying equity and underlying constituents; the dividend rate paid on the underlying equity and underlying constituents, if applicable; the time remaining to maturity of the PLUS SM ; interest rates in the markets; geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, force majeure and regulatory or judicial events; the creditworthiness of UBS and the current bid-ask spread for the PLUS SM .

■ Impact of fees and the use of internal funding rates rather than secondary market credit spreads on secondary market prices — All other things being equal, the use of the internal funding rates described above under “— Fair value considerations” as well as the inclusion in the issue price of the underwriting discount, hedging costs, issuance costs and any projected profits are, subject to the temporary mitigating effect of UBS Securities LLC’s and its affiliates’ market making premium, expected to reduce the price at which you may be able to sell the PLUS SM in any secondary market.

■ Owning the PLUS SM is not the same as owning the underlying equity or the underlying constituents — The return on the PLUS SM may not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned the underlying constituents. For instance, the return on the PLUS SM is capped due to the maximum payment at maturity, while a direct investment in the underlying equity or the underlying constituents would offer the opportunity for an uncapped return. Furthermore, you will not receive or be entitled to receive any dividend payments or other distributions during the term of the PLUS SM , and any such dividends or distributions will not be factored into the calculation of the payment at maturity on the PLUS SM . In addition, as an owner of the PLUS SM , you will not have voting rights or any other rights that a holder of the underlying equity or the underlying constituents may have.

■ No assurance that the investment view implicit in the PLUS SM will be successful — It is impossible to predict whether and the extent to which the value of the underlying equity will rise or fall. There can be no assurance that the final price will be equal to or greater than the initial price. The final price of the underlying equity will be influenced by complex and interrelated political, economic, financial and other factors that affect the issuers of the underlying equity and the underlying constituents. You should be willing to accept the risk of losing some or all of your initial investment.

■ The value of the underlying equity may not completely track the value of the underlying constituents in which such exchange traded fund invests — Although the trading characteristics and valuations of the underlying equity will usually mirror the characteristics and valuations of the underlying constituents in which such exchange traded fund invests, its value may not completely track the value of such underlying constituents. The value of the underlying equity will reflect transaction costs and fees that the underlying constituents in which the underlying equity invests do not have. In addition, although the underlying equity may be currently listed for trading on an exchange, there is no assurance that an active trading market will continue for such underlying equity or that there will be liquidity in the trading market.

November 2014

15

Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (PLUSSM) due March 3, 2016 $14,861,380 Based on the Value of the shares of the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund

■ Fluctuation of NAV — The net asset value (the “NAV”) of the underlying equity may fluctuate with changes in the market value of its securities holdings. The market price of the underlying equity may fluctuate in accordance with changes in NAV and supply and demand on the applicable stock exchanges. In addition, the market price of the underlying equity may differ from its NAV per share; the underlying equity may trade at, above or below its NAV per share.

■ Failure of the underlying equity to track the level of its underlying index — While the underlying equity is designed and intended to track the level of the Energy Select Sector Index (the “underlying index”), various factors, including fees and other transaction costs, will prevent the underlying equity from correlating exactly with changes in the level of its underlying index. Accordingly, the performance of the underlying equity will not be equal to the performance of its underlying index during the term of the PLUS SM .

■ The PLUS SM are subject to risks associated with the energy sector — The underlying equity seeks to track the performance of the underlying index, which is comprised of the stocks of companies representing the energy sector of the S&P 500® Index. All or substantially all of the equity securities tracked by the underlying equity are issued by companies whose primary lines of business are directly associated with the energy sector. The profitability and stock prices of energy sector companies are affected by supply and demand both in their specific product or service and for energy products in general. The price of oil and gas, exploration and production spending will likewise affect the performance of energy companies. In addition, securities of companies in the energy field are subject to swift price and supply fluctuations caused by events relating to energy conservation and the success of exploration projects. Weak demand for energy companies’ products or services or for energy products and services in general, as well as negative developments in other areas, would adversely impact the shares of companies held by the underlying equity. As a result of these factors, the value of the PLUS SM linked to the underlying equity may be subject to greater volatility and be more adversely affected by economic, political, or regulatory events relating to the energy sector.

■ The underlying equity utilizes a passive indexing investment approach — The underlying equity is not managed according to traditional methods of “active” investment management, which involve the buying and selling of securities based on economic, financial and market analysis and investment judgment. Instead, the underlying equity, utilizing a “passive” or indexing investment approach, attempts to approximate the investment performance of the underlying index by investing in a portfolio of stocks that generally replicate such index. Therefore, unless a specific stock is removed from that index, the underlying equity generally would not sell a stock because the stock’s issuer was in financial trouble. In addition, the underlying equity is subject to the risk that the investment strategy of the underlying equity’s investment adviser may not produce the intended results.

■ We may engage in business with or involving the issuer of the underlying equity or any issuer of an underlying constituent (an “underlying constituent issuer”) without regard to your interests — We and our affiliates may currently or from time to time in the future engage in business with the issuer of the underlying equity or any underlying constituent issuer without regard to your interests and thus may acquire nonpublic information about the underlying equity or an underlying constituent. Neither we nor any of our affiliates undertakes to disclose any such information to you. In addition, we or our affiliates from time to time have published and in the future may publish research reports with respect to the underlying equity or an underlying constituent, which may or may not recommend that investors buy or hold the underlying equity or an underlying constituent.

■ Economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of the issuer may be different from those of investors — We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the PLUS SM , including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the PLUS SM . In performing these duties, the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the PLUS SM . The calculation agent will determine the final price and the payment at maturity. Determinations made by the calculation agent, including with respect to the occurrence or non-occurrence of market disruption events, may affect the payout to you at maturity. As UBS determines the economic terms of the PLUS SM , including the maximum payment and leverage factor, and such terms include hedging costs, issuance costs and projected profits, the PLUS SM represent a package of economic terms. There are other potential conflicts of interest insofar as an investor could potentially get better economic terms if that investor entered into exchange-traded and/or OTC derivatives or other instruments with third parties, assuming that such instruments were available and the investor had the ability to assemble and enter into such instruments. Furthermore, given that UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates temporarily maintain a market making premium, it may have the effect of discouraging UBS Securities LLC and its affiliates from recommending sale of your PLUS SM in the secondary market.

■ Hedging and trading activity by the calculation agent and its affiliates could potentially affect the value of the PLUS SM — One or more of our affiliates have hedged our obligations under the PLUS SM and will carry out hedging activities related to the PLUS SM (and other instruments linked to the underlying equity or the underlying constituents), including trading in the underlying constituents, swaps, futures and options contracts on the underlying equity and the underlying constituents as well as in other instruments related to these assets. Our affiliates also trade in the underlying constituents and other financial instruments related to the underlying equity and the underlying constituents on a regular basis as part of their general broker-dealer and other businesses. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to the pricing date could have potentially increased the initial price and, as a result, could have increased the value at which the underlying equity must close on the valuation date so that investors do not suffer a loss on their initial investment in the PLUS SM . Additionally, such hedging or trading activities during the term of the PLUS SM , including on the valuation date, could adversely affect the value of the underlying equity on the valuation date and, accordingly, the amount of cash, if any, an investor will receive at maturity.

■ Under certain circumstances, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (“FINMA”) has the power to take actions that may adversely affect the PLUS SM — Pursuant to article 25 et seq. of the Swiss Banking Act, FINMA has broad statutory powers to take measures and actions in relation to UBS if it (i) is overindebted, (ii) has serious liquidity problems or (iii) fails to fulfill the applicable capital adequacy provi

November 2014

Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (PLUSSM) due March 3, 2016 $14,861,380 Based on the Value of the shares of the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund

sions after expiration of a deadline set by FINMA. If one of these prerequisites is met, the Swiss Banking Act grants significant discretion to FINMA to open restructuring proceedings or liquidation (bankruptcy) proceedings in respect of, and/or impose protective measures in relation to, UBS. In particular, a broad variety of protective measures may be imposed by FINMA, including a bank moratorium or a maturity postponement, which measures may be ordered by FINMA either on a stand-alone basis or in connection with restructuring or liquidation proceedings. In a restructuring proceeding, the resolution plan may, among other things, (a) provide for the transfer of UBS’s assets or a portion thereof, together with debts and other liabilities, and contracts of UBS, to another entity, (b) provide for the conversion of UBS’s debt and/or other obligations, including its obligations under the PLUS SM , into equity and/or (c) potentially provide for haircuts on obligations of UBS, including its obligations under the PLUS SM . Although no precedent exists, if one or more measures under the revised regime were imposed, such measures may have a material adverse effect on the terms and market value of the PLUS SM and/or the ability of UBS to make payments thereunder.

■ Uncertain tax treatment — Significant aspects of the tax treatment of the PLUS SM are uncertain. You should read carefully the section entitled “Tax considerations” on page 6 herein and the section entitled “Supplemental U.S. Tax Considerations” beginning on page PS-44 of the accompanying product supplement and consult your tax advisor about your tax situation.

The nine Select Sector Indices upon which the Select Sector Funds are based together comprise all of the companies in the S&P 500. The XLE Fund seeks to provide investment results that, before expenses, correspond generally to the price and yield performance of publicly traded equity securities of companies in the Energy Select Sector Index.

In seeking to track the performance of the Energy Select Sector Index, the XLE Fund employs a replication strategy, which means that the XLE Fund typically invests in substantially all of the securities represented in the Energy Select Sector Index in approximately the same proportions as the Energy Select Sector Index. Under normal market conditions, the XLE Fund generally invests substantially all, but at least 95%, of its total assets in the securities comprising the Energy Select Sector Index.

The Energy Select Sector Index includes companies from the following industries: oil, gas & consumable fuels; and energy equipment & services. The Energy Select Sector Index is one of nine Select Sector Indices developed and maintained in accordance with the following criteria: (1) each of the component securities in a Select Sector Index is a constituent company of the S&P 500 Index; (2) each stock in the S&P 500 Index is allocated to one and only one of the Select Sector Indices; and (3) each Select Sector Index is calculated by Standard & Poor’s using a modified “market capitalization” methodology.

As of September 30, 2014, ordinary operating expenses of the XLE Fund are expected accrue at an annual rate of 0.16% of the XLE Fund’s average daily net asset value. Expenses of the XLE Fund reduce the net value of the assets held by the XLE Fund and, therefore, reduce the value of each share of the XLE Fund. As of June 30, 2014, the Energy SPDR Fund’s five largest company holdings include: Exxon Mobil Corporation (15.21%), Chevron Corporation (13.00%), Schlumberger Ltd. (7.73%), ConocoPhillips (3.91%) and EOG Resources Inc. (3.71%).
