(iii)
If, on

are capable
 
of being

Group Holding
 
Company's capital
 
adequacy
 
are at
 
the time
 
inadequate

prevent
 
the
 
Group
 
Holding
Company from
 
becoming insolvent,
 
bankrupt, unable

(B)
customary
 
measures
 
to improve
 
the

Holding
 
Company's capital
adequacy being

the
 
Public
 
Sector

will
 
have,
 
the
 
effect

Company's capital adequacy
 
and without which,
 
in the determination
 
of
(and

the

of its debts as they fall due or unable to carry on its business.
For
 
the
 
avoidance
 
of
 
doubt,
 
it
 
is
 
understood
 
that

Event
 
may
 
occur

Conversion upon a Trigger Event or a Viability Event
If the Issuer has
 
given a Trigger Event
 
Conversion Notice or a
 
Viability Event Conversion
Notice in accordance with Condition 7 (
Trigger Event and Viability
 
Event
), then:
(i)
each Note shall,
 
subject to and as
 
provided in this
 
Condition 9, be
 
redeemed and
settled (the "
Conversion
") on the applicable Conversion Date by (x) the delivery
of new
 
fully paid
 
Ordinary Shares
 
to the
 
Settlement Share
 
Depository on
 
behalf
of the Holders, and (y) the cancellation
 
of any accrued and unpaid interest on
 
the
Notes (whether or not due and payable); and
(ii)
receipt by the Settlement Share Depository of such number of Ordinary Shares as
is required to satisfy in
 
full its obligation to deliver Ordinary
 
Shares in respect of
the Conversion on the applicable Conversion Date shall be a good and
 
complete

discharge
 
of the
 
Issuer's (and,
 
if UBS
 
Group
 
AG is
 
not the
 
Issuer,
 
UBS Group
AG's) obligations in respect of the Notes.
In the case of the
 
Ordinary Shares to be
 
delivered upon Conversion, as from
 
the applicable
Share Creation Date
 
for such Ordinary
 
Shares, there is
 
no provision for
 
the reconversion
of such Ordinary Shares into Notes.
(b)
Recourse for Ordinary Shares
Holders
 
shall
 
have
 
recourse
 
only
 
to
 
the
 
Issuer
 
for
 
the
 
issue
 
and
 
delivery
 
of
 
Ordinary
Shares to the Settlement Share Depository
 
pursuant to these Terms
 
and Conditions. After
such delivery to the Settlement Share Depository,
 
Holders shall have recourse only to the
Settlement
 
Share
 
Depository
 
(or
 
any
 
relevant
 
intermediary)
 
for
 
the delivery
 
to
 
them
 
of
such Ordinary Shares or,
 
in the circumstances described in clause
 
(h) of this Condition 9,
any cash amounts to which such Holders are entitled under clause (h) of this Condition
 
9.
(c)
Conversion Price and determination of number of Ordinary Shares
(i)
Upon the occurrence

on which the
 
relevant
Trigger
 
Event
 
Conversion
 
Notice
 
or
 
Viability
 
Event
 
Conversion
 
Notice
 
is
published, each Holder shall be deemed to have accepted, and hereby accepts and
agrees, (A)
 
to the
 
conversion of
 
its holding
 
of Notes
 
into Ordinary
 
Shares at
 
the
Conversion Price provided for herein and that, where necessary under
 
Swiss law,
the Settlement Agent shall effect such conversion on such Holder's behalf,
 
and
(B) that
 
its obligation
 
to pay
 
up the
 
Ordinary Shares
 
to be
 
issued shall
 
be set
 
off
against
 
its claim
 
for
 
repayment
 
of the
 
principal
 
amount upon
 
redemption
 
of the
Notes, which
 
claim shall
 
be deemed
 
to be
 
due and
 
payable immediately
 
prior to
the time on
 
the Share Creation
 
Date when, as
 
a matter of
 
Swiss law,
 
the relevant
Ordinary Shares are paid up. Such Ordinary Shares shall be paid up and issued on
the Share
 
Creation Date
 
whereupon the
 
Holders shall
 
cease as
 
a matter
 
of Swiss
law to be treated
 
for all purposes under
 
Swiss law as Holders
 
and shall instead
 
as
of such date be treated for all purposes under Swiss law as Shareholders.
 
(ii)
Subject
 
to
 
clause
 
(g)
 
of
 
this
 
Condition
 
9,
 
the
 
Issuer,
 
with
 
the
 
assistance
 
of
 
the
Settlement Agent, where necessary under Swiss law, shall issue and deliver to the
Settlement Share
 
Depository on
 
the applicable
 
Conversion Date such
 
number of
Ordinary
 
Shares
 
in
 
respect
 
of
 
each
 
Holder
 
as
 
is
 
determined
 
by
 
the
 
Settlement
Agent by
 
dividing the
 
aggregate principal
 
amount of
 
Notes held by
 
such Holder
on the
 
applicable Conversion
 
Date by
 
the Conversion
 
Price in effect
 
on the date
of
 
relevant
 
Trigger
 
Event
 
Conversion
 
Notice
 
or
 
Viability
 
Event
 
Conversion
Notice, as
 
the case
 
may be.
 
The Settlement
 
Agent shall
 
determine such
 
number
of Ordinary
 
Shares in
 
accordance with
 
this subclause
 
(ii) as
 
soon as
 
practicable
after
 
publication
 
of
 
the
 
relevant
 
Trigger
 
Event
 
Conversion
 
Notice
 
or

(iii)
The
 
initial
 
Conversion
 
Price
 
per
 
Ordinary
 
Share
 
in
 
respect
 
of
 
the

may
 
be,
 
in
 
the
 
circumstances
described in clause (d) below.
(d)
Anti-dilution adjustment of the Conversion
 
Price
(i)
Upon the occurrence of
 
any of the
 
events described below after
 
15 February 2024,
the Conversion Price will be adjusted by the Issuer as follows:
(A)
If there
 
is a consolidation,
 
reclassification, redesignation
 
or subdivision
in
 
relation
 
to
 
the
 
Ordinary
 
Shares
 
that
 
alters
 
the
 
number
 
of
 
Ordinary
Shares in issue, the Conversion Price will be adjusted by multiplying the
Conversion
 
Price
 
in
 
force
 
immediately
 
prior
 
to
 
such
 
consolidation,
reclassification,
 
redesignation
 
or subdivision
 
by the
 
following
 
fraction:

A
is
 
the
 
aggregate
 
number
 
of
 
Ordinary
 
Shares
 
in
 
issue
immediately
 
before
 
such
 
consolidation,
 
reclassification,

B
is
 
the
 
aggregate
 
number
 
of
 
Ordinary
 
Shares
 
in
 
issue
immediately
 
after,
 
and
 
as
 
a
 
result
 
of,
 
such
 
consolidation,
reclassification,
 
redesignation
 
or subdivision,
 
as the
 
case may
be.
Such
 
adjustment
 
will
 
become
 
effective
 
on
 
the
 
date
 
on
 
which
 
the
consolidation, reclassification,
 
redesignation or
 
subdivision, as
 
the case
may be, takes effect.
(B)
If UBS Group AG issues any Ordinary Shares to Shareholders as a class
credited
 
as
 
fully
 
paid
 
by
 
way
 
of
 
capitalisation
 
of
 
profits
 
or

where
 
any
 
such Ordinary

issued
instead of the whole
 
or part of a Cash Distribution
 
that the Shareholders
would
 
or
 
could
 
otherwise
 
have
 
elected
 
to
 
receive,

such
Ordinary

where
 
any
 
such
 
Ordinary
 
Shares
 
are
 
or
 
are
expressed
 
to
 
be
 
issued
 
in
 
lieu
 
of
 
a
 
dividend
 
(whether
 
or
 
not
 
a
 
Cash
Distribution
 
equivalent or
 
amount is
 
announced or
 
would otherwise
 
be
payable to
 
the Shareholders,
 
whether at their
 
election or
 
otherwise), the
Conversion
 
Price will
 
be adjusted
 
by multiplying
 
the Conversion
 
Price
in force immediately prior to such issue by the following fraction:
 
A
is
 
the
 
aggregate
 
number
 
of
 
Ordinary
 
Shares
 
in
 
issue
immediately before such issue; and
B
is
 
the
 
aggregate

Ordinary
 
Shares
 
in

immediately after such issue.
Such
 
adjustment
 
shall
 
become
 
effective
 
on
 
the
 
date
 
of
 
issue
 
of
 
such
Ordinary Shares.
(C)
If
 
UBS
 
Group
 
AG
 
makes
 
or
 
pays
 
an
 
Extraordinary
 
Distribution
 
to
Shareholders,
 
the Conversion
 
Price will
 
be adjusted
 
by multiplying
 
the
Conversion Price in force immediately prior to the Effective
 
Date by the
following fraction:
 
A
is
 
the
 
Current
 
Market
 
Price
 
of
 
one
 
Ordinary
 
Share
 
on
 
the
Effective
 
Date
 
(translated,
 
if
 
necessary,
 
into
 
the
 
Relevant
Currency at the Prevailing Rate on the Effective Date); and
B
is
 
the
 
portion
 
of
 
the
 
aggregate
 
Extraordinary
 
Distribution
attributable
 
to
 
one
 
Ordinary
 
Share,
 
with
 
such

being
determined
 
by
 
dividing
 
the

by
 
the
 
number
 
of
 
Ordinary
 
Shares
 
entitled
 
to

Distribution.
 
If
 
the

other than the Relevant Currency,
 
it shall be converted into the

the
 
relevant
Effective Date.

FURTHER ISSUES
The
 
Issuer
 
may
 
from
 
time
 
to
 
time
 
without
 
the
 
consent
 
of
 
the
 
Holders
 
issue
 
further
 
notes
 
and,
provided
that such notes have the
 
same terms and conditions
 
as the Notes in all
 
respects (or in all
respects except
 
for
 
the issue
 
date and/or
 
first date
 
on which
 
interest is
 
paid),
 
such further
 
notes
will be consolidated
 
and form a
 
single series with
 
the Notes. If
 
the Issuer issues
 
any such further
notes pursuant
 
to this Condition
 
18, references in
 
these Terms
 
and Conditions to
 
"Notes" include
such further notes, unless the context otherwise requires.

CURRENCY INDEMNITY
Any amount received or
 
recovered by any Holder
 
in a currency other
 
than SGD (whether
 
as a result
of, or of
 
the enforcement of,
 
a judgment or order
 
of a court of
 
any jurisdiction, in
 
the insolvency,
winding-up
 
or
 
dissolution
 
of
 
the
 
Issuer
 
or
 
otherwise)
 
under
 
the
 
Notes
 
will
 
only
 
constitute
 
a
discharge
 
of the
 
Issuer to
 
the extent
 
of the
 
amount in
 
SGD that
 
such Holder
 
is able
 
to purchase
with
 
the
 
amount
 
so
 
received or
 
recovered
 
in
 
such other
 
currency
 
on
 
the date
 
of
 
such receipt
 
or
recovery (or,
 
if it is
 
not practicable
 
to purchase
 
SGD with such
 
amount on
 
such date,
 
on the first
date on which it is practicable to do so). If the amount of SGD that
 
such Holder is able to purchase
is
 
less
 
than
 
the
 
amount
 
owed
 
by
 
the
 
Issuer
 
to
 
such
 
Holder
 
under
 
the
 
Notes,
 
the
 
Issuer
 
shall
indemnify
 
such
 
Holder
 
against
 
any
 
loss
 
sustained
 
by
 
it
 
as
 
a
 
result.
 
In
 
addition,
 
the
 
Issuer
 
shall
indemnify such Holder
 
for the costs of
 
making such purchase.
 
For purposes of
 
this Condition 19,
it
 
is
 
sufficient
 
for
 
the
 
relevant
 
Holder
 
to
 
demonstrate
 
that
 
it would
 
have
 
suffered
 
a
 
loss had
 
an
actual purchase been made.
 
The indemnities under this Condition
 
19 will (a) constitute a
 
separate
and independent obligation from the Issuer's
 
other obligations hereunder, (b) give rise to a separate
and independent cause of action, (c) apply irrespective of any indulgence
 
granted by any Holder
10280098139-v7
104
70-41069801
and
 
(d) continue
 
in full
 
force and
 
effect
 
despite any
 
other
 
judgment, order,
 
claim or
 
proof for
 
a
liquidated amount in respect of any amount due under the Notes or any other judgment or order.
