An investor who acquires 33 1/3% of all voting rights, whether they are exercisable or not, has to submit a takeover offer for all shares outstanding, according to Swiss stock exchange law. UBS has not elected to change or opt out of this rule.
The service agreements and employment contracts of the executive Board members, of the members of the Group Executive Board and of the Group Managing Board do not contain clauses triggered by a change of control. UBS does not offer "golden parachutes" to its senior executives. Employment contracts contain notice of termination periods of twelve months for GEB members and six to twelve months for GMB members, depending on local market practice. During this notice period they are entitled to salary and bonuses.
The Compensation Committee of the Board may, however, accelerate the vesting of options and the lapse date for restricted shares in case of a change of control.
