THE UNDERLYING INDEX
Dow Jones-UBS Commodity IndexSM 2 Month Forward Total Return
All disclosures contained in this term sheet regarding the Underlying Index, including, without limitation, its make up, method of calculation, and changes in its components, have been derived from publicly available sources. The information reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by, Dow Jones & Company, Inc. (“Dow Jones”) and UBS AG (“UBS”). Dow Jones and UBS have no obligation to continue to publish, and may discontinue publication of, the Underlying Index. The consequences of Dow Jones and UBS discontinuing publication of the Underlying Index are discussed in the section of product supplement CLN-2 entitled “Description of the Notes—Discontinuance of an Underlying Index.” None of us, the calculation agent, or MLPF&S accepts any responsibility for the calculation, maintenance, or publication of the Underlying Index or any successor index.
The Dow Jones-UBS Commodity IndexSM 2 Month Forward Total Return reflects the return on a fully collateralized investment in the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity IndexSM 2 Month Forward (“DJUBSF2”). The Underlying Index measures the performance of an investment in the commodity markets over time. The Underlying Index is fully collateralized because it combines the returns of the DJUBSF2 with the returns on cash collateral invested in U.S. Treasury Bills. The Dow Jones-UBS Commodity IndexSM (“DJUBS”) is a proprietary index that was established on July 14, 1998 by Dow Jones and UBS to provide a liquid and diversified benchmark for commodities investments. The Underlying Index is also designed to be a “tradable” index that is readily accessible to market participants. The DJUBSF2 tracks the returns of rolling commodities futures contracts. The DJUBSF2 is currently comprised of futures contracts on 19 physical commodities. A commodity futures contract is an agreement that provides for the purchase and sale of a specified type and quantity of a commodity during a stated delivery month for a fixed price. The 19 commodities that currently comprise the Underlying Index (the “Index Commodities”) are: aluminum, coffee, copper, corn, cotton, crude oil, gold, heating oil, lean hogs, live cattle, natural gas, nickel, silver, soybeans, soybean oil, sugar, unleaded gasoline, wheat and zinc. Futures contracts on the DJUBS are currently listed for trading on the Chicago Board of Trade. The Index Commodities currently trade on United States exchanges, with the exception of aluminum, nickel and zinc, which trade on the London Metal Exchange.
The DJUBS is more fully described in product supplement CLN-2 under “The Underlying Indices—Dow Jones-UBS Commodity IndexSM.”
