| • (1) | Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions of the Offers described in the Offer to Purchase, if the Maximum Purchase Condition (as defined below) is not satisfied with respect to every series of Notes, the relevant Offeror will accept Notes for purchase in the order of their respective acceptance priority level specified in the table above (each, an “Acceptance Priority Level,” with 1 being the highest Acceptance Priority Level and 7 being the lowest Acceptance Priority Level). It is possible that a series of Notes with a particular Acceptance Priority Level will not be accepted for purchase even if one or more series with a higher or lower Acceptance Priority Level are accepted for purchase. | |
| • (2) | For each series of Notes in respect of which a par call date is indicated, the calculation of the applicable Total Consideration (as defined below) will be performed to the par call date. For each series of Notes in respect of which a par call date is not indicated, the calculation of the applicable Total Consideration will be performed to the maturity date. See Annex A to the Offer to Purchase for an overview of the calculation of the Total Consideration with respect to the Notes. | |
| • (3) | The total consideration for each series of Notes (such consideration, the “Total Consideration”) payable per each $1,000 or €1,000 principal amount of such series of Notes validly tendered for purchase will be based on the fixed spread specified in the table above for such series of Notes, plus the yield of the reference security specified in the table above for that series as quoted on the Bloomberg reference page specified in the table above as of 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on November 5, 2025, unless extended with respect to the applicable Offer. The Total Consideration does not include the applicable Accrued Coupon Payment, which will be payable in cash in addition to the applicable Total Consideration. | |
| • (4) | Originally issued by Credit Suisse AG, acting through its New York branch. On May 31, 2024, Credit Suisse AG merged into UBS AG and, by operation of law, UBS AG assumed Credit Suisse AG’s obligations as issuer under the terms and conditions applicable to this series of Notes. Effective June 12, 2024, UBS AG designated its Stamford branch (in place of its New York branch) as the branch through which UBS AG acts as issuer of this series of Notes. | |
| • (5) | Originally issued by Credit Suisse Group AG. On June 12, 2023, Credit Suisse Group AG merged into UBS Group AG and, by operation of law, UBS Group AG assumed Credit Suisse Group AG’s obligations as issuer under the terms and conditions applicable to this series of Notes. |
Each Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on November 5, 2025, unless extended or earlier terminated (such date and time with respect to an Offer, as the same may be extended with respect to such Offer, the “Expiration Date”). Notes tendered for purchase may be validly withdrawn at any time at or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on November 5, 2025, unless extended or earlier terminated (such date and time with respect to an Offer, as the same may be extended with respect to such Offer, the “Withdrawal Date”), but not thereafter, unless extended by the applicable Offeror as described in the Offer to Purchase. Each Offer is independent of the other Offers, and the applicable Offeror may terminate or modify its Offers without terminating or modifying any other Offer. The deadline for Holders who, at or prior to the Expiration Date, deliver a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery and all other required documentation to the applicable Tender Agent (or comply with the applicable Clearing System’s procedures applicable to guaranteed delivery), to validly tender Notes using the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures is expected to be 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on November 7, 2025, unless extended with respect to any Offer (the “Guaranteed Delivery Date”). The deadlines set by any intermediary and the applicable Clearing System for the submission and withdrawal of tender instructions may be earlier than the relevant deadlines specified above.
The Initial Settlement Date for an Offer of any Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Expiration Date (and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Withdrawal Date), and accepted for purchase by the applicable Offeror, will be promptly after the Expiration Date. The Initial Settlement Date is expected to be the second business day after the Expiration Date (expected to be November 7, 2025), unless extended with respect to any Offer.
The Guaranteed Delivery Settlement Date for an Offer of any Notes validly tendered after the Expiration Date and at or prior to the Guaranteed Delivery Date pursuant to the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures, and accepted for purchase by the applicable Offeror, will be promptly after the Guaranteed Delivery Date. The Guaranteed Delivery Settlement Date is expected to be the first business day after the Guaranteed Delivery Date (expected to be November 10, 2025), with respect to each Offer (as the same may be extended with respect to such Offer).

In addition to the applicable Total Consideration, Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase will receive a cash payment equal to the accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes from and including the immediately preceding interest payment date for such Notes to, but excluding, the Initial Settlement Date. The Accrued Coupon Payment in respect of Notes accepted for purchase will be calculated in accordance with the terms of such Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, interest will cease to accrue on the Initial Settlement Date for all Notes accepted in the Offers and Holders whose Notes are tendered pursuant to the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures and are accepted for purchase will not receive payment in respect of any interest for the period from and including the Initial Settlement Date.
The applicable Offeror’s obligation to complete an Offer with respect to a particular series of Notes validly tendered is conditioned on the satisfaction of conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, including that the aggregate Total Consideration (converted into U.S. Dollars as described under “Conditions to the Offers and Acceptance Priority” in the Offer to Purchase), excluding the Accrued Coupon Payment, payable for Notes purchased in the Offers not exceed $4,000,000,000 (the “Maximum Purchase Consideration”), and the Maximum Purchase Consideration being sufficient to pay the Total Consideration, excluding the Accrued Coupon Payment, for all validly tendered Notes of such series (after accounting for all validly tendered Notes of all series that have a higher Acceptance Priority Level) (the “Maximum Purchase Condition”).
A complete description of the terms and conditions of the Offers is set out in the Offer to Purchase. Before making a decision with respect to the Offers, Holders should carefully consider all of the information in the Offer to Purchase.

The deadlines set by any such intermediary and the applicable Clearing System for the submission and withdrawal of tender instructions may be earlier than the relevant deadlines specified above.
