TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE NOTES
UBS Group AG (the "Issuer") has established a senior debt programme (the "Programme") under which
it will issue notes (the "Notes"). The Notes will be issued in series (each, a "Series"), and each Series may
comprise one or more tranches of Notes (each, a "Tranche"). The Notes of each Tranche of the same Series
will have identical terms in all respects (or in all respects except for the issue date and/or the first date on
which interest will be paid and/or the first date on which interest begins to accrue).
In connection with the Programme, the Issuer has entered into (i) the senior debt fiscal agency agreement
for Registered Notes (as defined in the General Terms and Conditions (as defined below)) issued on or after
the date hereof under the Programme dated as of 26 July 2019, as amended by the first amendment thereto
dated as of 14 April 2023 (as may be further amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to
time, the "Senior Debt Fiscal Agency Agreement"), with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as
fiscal agent (the "Fiscal Agent", which expression includes any successor Fiscal Agent appointed in
accordance with the terms of the Senior Debt Fiscal Agency Agreement), paying agent, registrar (the
"Registrar", which expression includes any successor Registrar appointed in accordance with the terms of
the Senior Debt Fiscal Agency Agreement), and calculation agent, UBS AG, as Swiss paying agent, and
the other agents from time to time party thereto, and (ii) the paying agency agreement for Uncertificated
Notes (as defined in the General Terms and Conditions) issued on or after the date hereof under the
Programme dated as of 26 July 2019 (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time
to time, the "Paying Agency Agreement"), with UBS AG, as principal paying agent (the "Principal
Paying Agent", which expression includes any successor Principal Paying Agent appointed in accordance
with the terms of the Paying Agency Agreement), and calculation agent, and the other agents from time to
time party thereto.
The general terms and conditions of the Notes are set out under "General Terms and Conditions of the
Notes" (the "General Terms and Conditions"). The General Terms and Conditions do not reflect the terms
and conditions of any specific Tranche of Notes. In connection with each Tranche of Notes, the Issuer will
prepare a pricing supplement (the "Pricing Supplement"), which will contain the information that
specifically relates to that Tranche of Notes. In relation to each Tranche of Notes, the Pricing Supplement
will contain provisions that complete, and may contain provisions that supplement, modify and/or replace
all or any part of, the General Terms and Conditions for the purpose of that Tranche alone.
In the case of Registered Notes, the relevant Pricing Supplement will be attached to each Registered Global
Certificate and Registered Definitive Certificate, if any (each defined in the General Terms and Conditions).
Copies of the Pricing Supplement for each Tranche of Notes can be obtained in electronic or printed form,
free of charge, during normal business hours from the Issuer at UBS AG, Investment Bank, Swiss
Prospectus Switzerland, P.O. Box, 8098 Zurich, Switzerland (voicemail: +41 44 239 47 03, fax: +41 44
239 69 14, email: [email protected]). In the case of any Tranche of Notes to be publicly offered
in Switzerland and/or with respect to which application will be made to admit such Notes to trading on the
SIX Swiss Exchange (and/or any other trading venue (exchange or multilateral trading facility) in
Switzerland), the applicable Pricing Supplement will be filed with SIX Exchange Regulation Ltd in its
capacity as review body pursuant to article 52 of the Swiss Financial Services Act of 15 June 2018, as
amended (the "FinSA") (in such capacity, the "Swiss Review Body"), and published in accordance with
the FinSA as soon as the final terms of such Notes are available, but, in the case of an admission to trading,
in any case no later than the first day of trading for such Notes on the SIX Swiss Exchange (or such other
trading venue in Switzerland, as the case may be). The Pricing Supplement for such Notes will not be
reviewed or approved by the Swiss Review Body.
To determine the terms and conditions that apply to a particular Tranche of Notes, it is necessary to (i) refer
to the General Terms and Conditions and (ii) consider the extent to which the General Terms and Conditions
have been completed, supplemented, modified and/or replaced by the information contained in the relevant
Pricing Supplement. In relation to the terms and conditions of any Tranche of Notes, to the extent that there
is any inconsistency between the General Terms and Conditions and the terms and conditions that appear
in the relevant Pricing Supplement, the terms and conditions that appear in such Pricing Supplement will
prevail.
