UBS ETFs UK Reporting Fund Status

Introduction The following information is intended to provide a general guide for United Kingdom (UK) residents or ordinarily resident investors, of certain tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposal of shares in UBS ETFs that are domiciled in Luxembourg or Ireland and that are listed on the London Stock Exchange. Please note, UK ‘resident non-domiciled’ investors are subject to specific tax rules in the UK which are not addressed below. The summary is non-exhaustive and does not constitute tax advice. Investors and potential investors are therefore advised to consult their own professional tax advisors concerning possible taxation or other consequences under the laws of their country of incorporation, establishment, citizenship, residence or domicile. Investors and potential investors should note that the following information on taxation is based on the law and practice in force in the relevant jurisdiction at the date of this publication. As is the case with any investment, there can be no guarantee that the tax position prevailing at the time an investment is made will endure indefinitely. UBS AG and its affiliates do not provide tax advice. Any of the following information is not and cannot be construed as tax advice. UK tax law is subject to change and UBS AG cannot ensure that the information provided below is up to date. Please consult your tax advisor. This document addresses the UK Reporting Fund Status of the following UBS ETF umbrellas: I. UK Reporting Fund Status of UBS ETF SICAV II. UK Reporting Fund Status of UBS (Irl) ETF plc III.

Important information for UK resident tax payers investing in UBS ETFs The following information applies to UK resident tax payers and other Reporting Funds investing in a sub-fund of the ETF Company (“UBS ETFs”). It is the intention that all share classes of UBS ETFs listed on the London Stock Exchange will obtain ‘UK reporting fund status’ under the Offshore Funds (Tax) regulations 2009 and are therefore so-called ‘reporting funds’. The term ‘reporting fund’ broadly refers to an offshore fund that meets certain reporting requirements to HM Revenue & Customs and its investors.

UK tax resident investors investing in a Reporting Fund must include in their UK tax return both the actual distributions received from their investment as well as the ‘reported income’ (broadly, their proportionate share of the Reporting Fund’s reported income in excess of the sums actually distributed). UK investors will be liable to income or corporation tax as appropriate on the total of these sums. If you invest in a UBS ETF you are required to review the periodic information contained on the UBS ETF website www.ubs.com/etf and include the relevant details on your UK tax return.

Further instructions for investors UBS ETFs (as Reporting Funds) are required to provide a report to investors at the end of the relevant accounting period, including details of the reported income of the relevant share class. UK tax resident investors holding shares in a UBS ETF on the last day of the Fund’s accounting period are required to include the correct “reportable income” calculation in their UK tax return. This information can be obtained on the website www.ubs.com/etf (please refer to the pdfs at the end of the website page) and include it in their UK tax return.

The report shows the dates and amounts per share class of all distributions paid during the UBS ETF’s accounting period. ‘Reported income’ in excess of the sums actually distributed are deemed to have been received six months after the accounting year end of fund, on the ‘Fund distribution date’, and should be included in the tax return for the relevant tax year. Please note, the obligation to include the reportable income amount on a UK tax return lies with the investor and not with a nominee, distributor or advisor.

Example An investor acquired 1000 shares in a UBS ETF (share class ‘X’) on 1 July 2010. Excess reported income for the UBS ETF accounting year ended 30 June 2011 is 0.1010. The investor should include the following amount of reported income in their tax return for the tax year 2011/2012: (0.1010 x 1000 shares) = 101.0. Any amounts actually distributed should also be included as distributions. 3

Important Information for Investors in the UK The UBS ETF SICAV, UBS (Irl) ETF plc and UBS ETF plc are recognised schemes under section 264 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. They do seek UK Reporting Fund Status. The protections offered by the UK’s regulatory system, and compensation under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, will not be available. The information contained in this document should not be considered a recommendation to purchase or sell any particular security and the opinions expressed are those of UBS Asset Management and are subject to change without notice. Additional Information Investment in the Funds mentioned in the document may not be suitable for all investors. Investors should read the Prospectus, Key Investor Information Document (KID) and other fund documentation for details of the risks associated with this product. These document are available free of charge from UBS Asset Management (UK) Ltd, 21 Lombard Street, London EC4R 9AH. Past performance is not a guide to future performance. The value of investments and the income from them may go down as well as up and are not guaranteed. Investors may not get back the amount originally invested. Changes in rates of exchange may cause the value of this investment to fluctuate. UBS has not considered the suitability of these Funds against your individual needs. This document is not and under no circumstances to be construed as a public offering of shares in the United States. This document is not aimed at persons who are resident in the United States. Synthetic replicated ETFs will use derivatives as part of their investment capabilities. These instruments carry a material level of risk and the Fund could potentially experience higher levels of volatility should the market move against them. In order to trade in derivative instruments we enter into an agreement with various counterparties. Whilst we assess the credit worthiness of each counterparty we enter into an agreement with, the Fund is at risk if that counterparty does not fulfil its obligations under the agreement. Any collateral paid by the Fund may not be returned, nor may any payments due to the Fund be made. Some of the markets in which the Fund may effect derivative transactions are “over-the-counter” or “interdealer” markets, which may be illiquid and are sometimes subject to larger spreads than exchange-traded derivative transactions. The participants in such markets are typically not subject to credit evaluation and regulatory oversight, which would be the case with members of “exchange-based” markets. This exposes the Fund to the risk that a counterparty will not settle a transaction in accordance with its terms and conditions because of a credit or liquidity problem with the counterparty. Delays in settlement may also result from disputes over the terms of the contract (whether or not bona fide) since such markets may lack the established rules and procedures for swift settlement of disputes among market participants found in “exchange-based” markets. These factors may cause the Fund to suffer a loss due to adverse market movements while replacement transactions are executed or otherwise.

The Luxembourg and Irish domiciled funds are recognised scheme under section 264 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. They seek UK Reporting Fund Status. The protections offered by the UK’s regulatory system, and compensation under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, will not be available. The Switzerland domiciled funds are not recognised under section 264 of the Financial Services and Markets Act and are therefore subject to the restrictions on promotion in section 238 of the Financial Services and Markets Act. The returns payable to the fund are dependent on payments received by the fund from the swap counterparty under the terms of the relevant swap and, therefore are subject to credit risk of the swap counterparty. In the event that the swap counterparty defaults under the terms of the relevant swap, the funds may suffer a loss. Synthetic replicated ETFS will use derivatives as part of their investment capabilities. These instruments carry a material level of risk and the Fund could potentially experience higher levels of volatility should the market move against them. In order to trade in derivative instruments we enter into an agreement with various counterparties. Whilst we assess the credit worthiness of each counterparty we enter into an agreement with, the Fund is at risk if that counterparty does not fulfil its obligations under the agreement. Any collateral paid by the Fund may not be returned, nor may any payments due to the Fund be made. Some of the markets in which the Fund may effect derivative transactions are “over-the-counter” or “interdealer” markets, which may be illiquid and are sometimes subject to larger spreads than exchange-traded derivative transactions. The participants in such markets are typically not subject to credit evaluation and regulatory oversight, which would be the case with members of “exchange-based” markets. This exposes the Fund to the risk that a counterparty will not settle a transaction in accordance with its terms and conditions because of a credit or liquidity problem with the counterparty. Delays in settlement may also result from disputes over the terms of the contract (whether or not bona fide) since such markets may lack the established rules and procedures for swift settlement of disputes among market participants found in “exchange-based” markets. These factors may cause the Fund to suffer a loss due to adverse market movements while replacement transactions are executed or otherwise. UBS funds under Luxembourg law.
