UBS AG $21,000,000 Capped Buffer In-GEARS
Linked to the Dow Jones Industrial Average ® due December 23, 2026
Investment Description
UBS AG Capped Buffer In-GEARS (the “Securities”) are unsubordinated, unsecured debt obligations issued by UBS AG (“UBS” or the “issuer”) linked to the Dow Jones Industrial Average ® (the “underlying asset”). The amount you receive at maturity will be based on the “underlying performance factor” of the underlying asset, which will equal the final level divided by the initial level (expressed as a percentage). The “initial level” is the arithmetic average of the closing level of the underlying asset on each trading day during the initial valuation period, as determined by the calculation agent and as specified below, and the “final level” will be the arithmetic average of the closing level of the underlying asset on each trading day during the final valuation period, as described on page 2 of the accompanying pricing supplement.
· If the underlying performance factor is equal to or greater than 155% (meaning that the underlying performance factor is 155% or more, which equals an increase in the final level of at least 55% from the initial level), at maturity UBS will pay you a cash payment per Security resulting in a return equal to the maximum gain of 78.50%.
· If the underlying performance factor is equal to or greater than 145% and less than 155% , at maturity UBS will pay you a cash payment per Security resulting in a return equal to the sum of (a) 2.36 times the difference between the underlying performance factor and 145%, plus (b) 54.90%.
· If the underlying performance factor is equal to or greater than 105% and less than 145% , at maturity UBS will pay you a cash payment per Security resulting in a return equal to the sum of (a) 1.225 times the difference between the underlying performance factor and 105%, plus (b) 5.90%.
· If the underlying performance factor is equal to or greater than the downside threshold of 90% and less than 105% , at maturity UBS will pay you a cash payment per Security resulting in a return equal to 0.3934 times the difference between the underlying performance factor and 90%.
· If, however , the underlying performance factor is less than the downside threshold of 90% (meaning that the underlying performance factor is less than 90%, which equals a decrease in the final level by more than 10% from the initial level), at maturity UBS will pay you a cash payment per Security that is less than the principal amount, resulting in a percentage loss on your initial investment equal to the percentage that the underlying performance factor is less than 90%. In extreme situations, you could lose up to 90% of your initial investment.
Investing in the Securities involves significant risks. The Securities do not pay interest. You may lose up to 90% of your initial investment. The contingent repayment of principal applies only if you hold the Securities to maturity. Any payment on the Securities, 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 Securities and you could lose all of your initial investment.
Features
| q | Exposure to Performance
of the Underlying Asset up to the Maximum Gain: If the underlying performance factor
is at least 90%, at maturity the Securities will provide a positive return based on the excess
of the underlying performance factor over 90%, subject to the maximum gain. |
| --- | --- |
| q | Potential for Buffered Downside Market Exposure: If the underlying performance factor is less than the downside threshold
of 90%, which equals a decrease in the final level by more than 10% from the initial level, at maturity UBS will pay you a cash payment
per Security that is less than the principal amount, resulting in a percentage loss on your initial investment equal to the percentage
that the underlying performance factor is less than 90%. In extreme situations, you could lose up to 90% of your initial investment. The
contingent repayment of principal applies only if you hold the Securities to maturity. Any payment on the Securities, including any repayment
of principal, is subject to the creditworthiness of UBS. |

Notice to investors: the Securities are significantly riskier than conventional debt instruments. The issuer is not necessarily obligated to repay the principal amount of the Securities at maturity, and the Securities may have downside market risk similar to an investment in the underlying asset subject to the buffer. This market risk is in addition to the credit risk inherent in purchasing a debt obligation of UBS.
You should carefully consider the risks described under “Key Risks” beginning on page 4 of the accompanying pricing supplement and under “Risk Factors” beginning on page PS-9 of the accompanying product supplement. Events relating to any of those risks, or other risks and uncertainties, could adversely affect the market value of, and the return on your Securities. You may lose up to 90% of your initial investment in the Securities. The Securities will not be listed or displayed on any securities exchange or any electronic communications network.
Security Offering
The return on the Securities is subject to, and will not exceed, the “maximum gain” or the corresponding “maximum payment at maturity”. The initial level is the arithmetic average of the closing level of the underlying asset on each trading day during the initial valuation period, as determined by the calculation agent. The Securities are offered at a minimum investment of 100 Securities at $10 per Security (representing a $1,000 investment), and integral multiples of $10 in excess thereof.
