A dividend of CHF 2.20 per share will be paid on 23 April 2007, subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. The USD amount per share will be determined on 19 April 2007. 4  Net profit attributable to UBS shareholders / average equity attributable to UBS shareholders less distributions.
