At any time UBS AG, its subsidiaries and affiliates (or employees thereof) may make investment decisions that are inconsistent with the opinions expressed in this
publication, may have a long or short positions in or act as principal or agent in, the securities (or derivatives thereof) of an issuer identified in this publication, or
provide advisory or other services to the issuer or to a company connected with an issuer. Some investments may not be readily realisable since the market in the
securities is illiquid and therefore valuing the investment and identifying the risk to which you are exposed may be difficult to quantify. UBS relies on information
barriers to control the flow of information contained in one or more areas within UBS, into other areas, units, groups or affiliates of UBS. Some investments may be
subject to sudden and large falls in value and on realisation you may receive back less than you invested or may be required to pay more. Changes in foreign
currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the price, value or income of an investment. Past performance of an investment is not a guide to its future
performance. Additional information will be made available upon request.
