UBS AG: Share-for-share exchange offer to establish a group holding company, UBS Group AG

In Eurex circular 232/14, we informed you about the procedure in connection with the share-for-share exchange offer for UBS AG shares, whereby the chronology of events was based on an indicative timeline. According to the new indicative timeline announced 12 November 2014 by UBS AG, the initial acceptance period will remain open until 20 November 2014, unless further extended.

The trading of UBS Group AG shares is expected to begin on SIX Swiss Exchange on 28 November 2014. This would mean that the conversion to UBS Group AG shares (ISIN CH0244767585) would be effective on 28 November 2014, and not on 19 November 2014 as previously described in Eurex circular 232/14.
