The terms of the Award are as set forth in this Agreement and in the Plan, a copy of which is available on the UBS One Source Website. The Plan is incorporated into this Agreement by reference, which means that this Agreement is limited by and subject to the express terms and provisions of the Plan. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall govern. 1. Issuance of Shares and Shareholder Rights. You shall not have any right in, to, or with respect to any of the Shares (including any voting rights or rights with respect to dividends paid on the Common Stock) issuable under the Award until the Award is settled by the issuance of such Shares to you. The restricted share units shall vest in accordance with the above Vesting Schedule. One Share shall be issuable for each restricted share unit that vests on such vesting date subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. On or promptly following those dates, the Company shall transfer such Shares to you upon satisfaction of any required minimum tax withholding obligations. Following settlement of the Award, and upon satisfaction of all minimum tax withholding obligations, you become a shareholder of record, and shall receive voting rights and rights with respect to dividends paid thereafter on the Shares awarded.

2. Termination of Employment. a. Resignation or Termination with Cause. Except as otherwise provided in this Section or in a written agreement approved by the Executive Compensation and Development Committee (Committee), if you resign, or if your employment is terminated by the Company with Cause before the Award vests, you shall forfeit the right to receive an Award. b. Termination without Cause or Constructive Discharge. If your employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or Constructive Discharge before the Award vests, your Award shall continue to vest as provided in the above Vesting Schedule. c. Death or Disability. In the event of your death or Disability while in employment prior to the vesting of the Shares, all unvested Shares shall immediately become fully vested and payable to you (or, in the event of your death, your estate). “Disability” for this purpose shall be determined by the Committee pursuant to Section 22(e) (3) of the Code. d. Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, as that term is defined in the Plan, in cases where: i. the acquiring company is not publicly traded, or ii. where the acquiring company is publicly traded and the company does not assume or replace the outstanding equity, or iii. your employment is terminated due to a without Cause termination or Constructive Discharge within twenty-four (24) months following a Change in Control where the awards were assumed or replaced, all unvested Shares granted pursuant to this Agreement shall immediately become fully vested and settled through the issuance of Shares promptly following such event.

Taxes. a. Generally. You are ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the Award and dividend payments arising from this Award, regardless of any action the Company or UBS takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in

connection with the Award. Neither the Company nor UBS makes any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the grant or vesting of the Award or the subsequent sale of Shares issuable pursuant to the Award. The Company does not commit and is under no obligation to structure the Award to reduce or eliminate your tax liability. The Company may refuse to issue any Shares to you until you satisfy the tax withholding obligation. For purposes hereof, “UBS” includes the Plan third party administrator and any successor thereto. b. Payment of Withholding Taxes.

You have the option of satisfying your minimum tax withholding obligation in one of two ways: i. By Surrendering Shares. Unless you choose to satisfy the minimum tax withholding obligation by some other means in accordance with clause (ii) below, your acceptance of this Award constitutes your instruction and authorization to the Company and UBS to withhold a whole number of Shares from those Shares issuable to you as the Company and UBS determine to be appropriate to satisfy your minimum tax withholding obligation on each vesting date. ii. By Check (U.S. participants only), Wire Transfer or Other Means. You may elect to satisfy your minimum tax withholding obligation by remitting to UBS as instructed an amount that the Company and UBS determine is sufficient to satisfy the minimum tax withholding obligation. 6.
