Group Executive Board

Senior executive share ownership policy

Share ownership policies are in place to ensure that the interests of management are aligned with those of shareholders. Up to and including 2008, senior executives were required to accumulate and hold UBS shares with an aggregate value of five times the amount of the last three years' average cash component of their total compensation (base salary plus cash incentive award). Due to changes in the compensation model, the share ownership policy will be changed from 2009 onwards (refer to the "Compensation principles 2009 and beyond for UBS senior executives" section of this report for more information). Senior executives are not permitted to enter into any transaction which hedges, mitigates or otherwise transfers the risk of price movements of unvested UBS shares, notional shares or stock options granted under UBS compensation plans.

Transactions in 2008

In accordance with applicable rules and regulations, management transactions in UBS shares by members of the Board of Directors (BoD) and the Group Executive Board (GEB) are publicly disclosed. On 16 May 2008, persons closely associated with them also have such reporting obligations. Transactions which require reporting are those involving all types of financial instruments whose price is primarily influenced by UBS shares. As a consequence of the issuance of new UBS shares in connection with the stock dividend approved by the extraordinary general meeting on 27 February 2008, the grandfathering of Swiss rules ended on 16 May 2008, and the EU requirements (paragraph 15a of the German Securities Trading Act) regarding the reporting of management transactions are now applicable.

From 1 January to 15 May 2008, four purchases were disclosed with a total value of CHF 5,525,205, as well as two sales with a total value of CHF 847,332. Individuals' names and transactions made by closely associated persons were not required to be disclosed.

From 16 May until 31 December 2008, seven share purchases were disclosed with a total value of CHF 5,022,563 and USD 27,228, as well as three share sales with a total value of CHF 18,302,528 and USD 757,457 - of which CHF 17,736,100 were due to a single sale. Such disclosures contained the individuals' names. There were no share purchases or sales made by closely associated persons.

Due to the capital increase with a rights issue in June 2008, there were 29 exercises of subscription rights with a total value of CHF 27,447,987, seven purchases of subscription rights with a total amount of CHF 54,430 and 24 sales of subscription rights with a total value of CHF 3,076,438 and USD 52. These disclosures contained the individuals' names. Two closely associated parties exercised subscription rights, one sold subscription rights.

Until 2008, UBS executives generally received a majority of their compensation in UBS shares or options. For this reason, management transactions, in general, see sales outweighing purchases. Blackout periods and synchronized dates for unblocking or vesting of shares or options granted as compensation may lead to transactions being concentrated in short time periods.

Loans

As a global financial services provider and major Swiss domestic bank, UBS typically has business relationships with many large companies. Members of UBS's BoD often assume management or independent board responsibilities in many of these companies. Moreover, the granting of loans to both individuals and companies is part of UBS's ordinary business. The members of UBS's BoD and GEB are granted loans, fixed advances and mortgages at arm's length market terms.

In 2008, loans granted to companies related to seven independent members of the BoD amounted to CHF 667.3 million, including guarantees, contingent liabilities and unused committed credit facilities. Refer to "Note 32 Related parties" in the financial statements of this report for more information.
