1 Includes an average of 469,591 and 510,276 exchangeable shares for the quarters ended 31 December 2007 and 30 September 2007, respectively, and a year-to-date average of 490,118 shares for 31 December 2007 that can be exchanged into the same number of UBS shares. For 2006, amounts include an average of 147,231 exchangeable shares for the quarter ended 31 December 2006 and a year to date average of 143,809 shares for 31 December 2006 that can be exchanged into the same number of UBS shares. 2 Due to UBS losses, 33.7 million, 41.3 million and 50.1 million potential ordinary shares from unexercised employee shares and options are not considered as they have an anti-dilutive effect for the quarters ended 31 December 2007, 30 September 2007 and the year ended 31 December 2007, respectively.

The total equivalent shares outstanding of options that were not dilutive (out-of-the-money) but could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future were 119,309,645 and 37,229,136 for the years ended 31 December 2007 and 31 December 2006, respectively.
