The following constitutes Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (this “Amendment No. 2”). This Amendment No. 2 amends the statement on Schedule 13D filed on May 6, 2015 by the undersigned, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed on May 27, 2015 (as so amended, the “Original Schedule 13D”) by the undersigned, as specifically set forth herein.

Capitalized terms not defined in this Amendment No. 2 shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D. Except as set forth herein, the Original Schedule 13D is unmodified.

Item 2. Identity and Background

Item 2 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Set forth in Schedule A attached hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference, is the name, citizenship, residence or business address and present principal occupation or employment (and the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted) of each of UBS Group AG’s directors and executive officers.

During the last five years, neither UBS Group AG nor, to UBS Group AG’s knowledge, any person named in Schedule A hereto (i) was convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which such person was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

Pursuant to the SESTA Procedure, as described more fully below, all UBS AG shares that remained publicly held were canceled and the former owners of such canceled shares received UBS Group AG Shares, sourced from the creation of new registered shares out of authorised share capital and from existing treasury shares, as compensation. As a result of the completion of the SESTA Procedure, the percentage of UBS AG Shares held by UBS Group AG rose to 100%.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

Pursuant to the request filed by UBS Group AG on March 9, 2015 with Commercial Court of the Canton of Zurich (the “Commercial Court”) to initiate the SESTA Procedure, the Commercial Court has now declared the UBS AG Shares of the remaining Minority Holders to be invalid. This judgment entered into force pursuant to the confirmation from the Commercial Court dated August 20, 2015. On September 1, 2015, new UBS Group Shares were delivered to the Minority Holders of the now-cancelled UBS AG shares, sourced from the creation of new registered shares out of authorised share capital and from existing treasury shares. As a result of the completion of the SESTA Procedure, the percentage of UBS AG Shares held by UBS Group AG rose to 100%.

The UBS AG Shares were de-listed from the SIX Swiss Exchange on August 28, 2015. Now that it has achieved full ownership of the UBS AG Shares, UBS Group AG intends to terminate the registration of those shares under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act and Rule 12g-4 thereunder.
