UBS AG, London Branch
("UBS AG" or the "Company")
(Incorporated and domiciled in Switzerland)
(Registration number: CHE-101.329.561)

ALPHA CODE:         UABSPA
ISIN:               ZAE000261590

Notice of written resolution for UBS Actively Managed Certificate linked to
the ABSA SPM Global Equity Portfolio 1 Portfolio (the "Notes")

1.    Notice of written resolution to Noteholders
      UBS AG hereby gives notice to holders of all the outstanding Notes (the
      "Noteholders") requesting that they consider and, if thought fit,
      consent to the passing of an Extraordinary Resolution in the form of a
      written resolution as set out below.

      Unless otherwise defined, words and expressions used in this notice
      will bear the same meaning as in the Information Memorandum of the
      Issuer dated 16 September 2019 (the "Information Memorandum"), to be
      read with the amended and restated Final Terms for the Notes dated 24
      October 2024 (the "Final Terms").

WHEREAS

      Noteholders are required to notify their Broker or Central Securities
      Depositary participant by signing the written Extraordinary Resolution
      and delivering a signed electronic copy thereof, as set out in paragraph
      5 below, by no later than 17 September 2025, being 20 Business Days
      after the date of publication of this notice on SENS.

2.    Proposed amendments to be made to the Final Terms

      The Issuer wishes to amend the Final Terms as specified in the Further
      Amended and Restated Final Terms.

     (i)   change the identity of the Reference Portfolio Advisor from Absa
           Bank Limited (Absa) to Absa Stockbrokers and Portfolio Management
           (Pty) Limited (Absa SPM). At present, Absa Bank Limited delegates
           management of the Reference Portfolio to Absa SPM. The Issuer now
           wishes to appoint Absa SPM directly as Reference Portfolio Advisor.
           Consequently, the Issuer proposes adjustments to the fees and costs
           associated with the creation, maintenance, and management of the
           Reference Portfolio. The Issuer Management Fee will be adjusted
           from 0.55% per annum to 0.25% per annum, while the Reference
           Portfolio Advisor fee will be adjusted from 0.25% per annum to
           0.55% per annum. The net position of the total fees and costs
           associated with the Notes will remain unchanged at 0.80% per annum.
           Additionally, adjustments will be made to the investment parameters
           and other terms of the Notes. Given that Absa SPM already performs
           the Reference Portfolio Advisor role on a delegated basis, the
           proposed amendments are not expected to have a material impact on
           Noteholders.

    (ii)   update the description of the Notes and the JSE long name as
           detailed below. These changes are administrative in nature and are
           therefore not expected to have a material impact on Noteholders;
           and

           Description changes:
            Old Description:       ABSA SPM Global Equity Portfolio
                                   1 Portfolio

            Old JSE Long Name:     UBS ABSPA 22Aug28

    (iii) enable the Issuer to extend the Expiration Date on three separate
          occasions for an additional period of five years.

    (iv)   benchmarked against MSCI ACWI Net Total Return USD Index (Bloomberg
           page: NDUEACWF Index).
