Consequently, the baselines for our net-zero ambitions are based on year-end 2020 lending exposure and 2019 emissions data. Our 2021 emissions actuals are based on year-end 2021 lending exposure and 2020 emissions data; 2 Director and above; 3 Associated with UBS lending 13#15Appendix Supporting materials UBS 14#16Capital and leverage ratios Total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) Going concern capital UBS CET1 capital 105bn 58bn 45bn 47bn 13bn Gone concern loss-absorbing capacity 4Q22 AT1 45bn CET1 33.0% 18.2% 14.2% CET1 capital ratio guidance: ~13% 14.7% 4.0% 14.2% 4Q22 RWA 320bn 25bn buffer 12bn 12bn CET1: 10.3% Going concern: 14.6% TLAC: 25.0% Requirements¹ 10.24% 5.67% 4.42% CET1 leverage ratio guidance: >3.7% 4.57% 1.25% 4.42% 4Q22 LRD 1,028bn 9bn 15bn buffer 7bn CET1: 3.50% Going concern: 5.00% TLAC: 8.75% Requirements Balances as of quarter-end; Refer to the "Capital management" and "Recent developments" sections of the 4Q22 report for more information; 1 On 13.12.22, the UK countercyclical capital buffer (CCyB) was set at a level of 1.00% on risk-weighted positions that are related to private sector exposures. This increased our minimum CET1 capital requirement by 5 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2022. 15#17Compensation framework for GEB members No changes to the GEB compensation framework in 2022 Illustrative example: GEB¹ Deferred contingent capital plan (DCCP) 30% Long-term Incentive Plan three-year performance (LTIP) period 50% Cash 20% Base Salary 20% 2023 grant year GEB share ownership requirements: UBS Year 1 Year 2 ~17% Year 3 ~17% Year 4 Group CEO: min. 1,000,000 shares Other GEB members: min. 500,000 shares 30% ~17% Year 5 Key features Notional additional tier 1 (AT1) instruments Award vests in year 5 after grant year, subject to a write-down if a viability event occurs or the CET1 capital ratio falls below 10% (i.e., a trigger event) - Award is subject to 20% forfeiture for each financial year that UBS does not achieve a Group profit before tax, adjusted for disclosed items generally not representative of underlying business performance Award is subject to employment conditions and harmful acts provisions Notional shares Award vests in equal installments in years 3, 4 and 5 after grant year, depending on the achievement of ROCET1 and rTSR measured over a three-year performance period Award is subject to employment conditions and harmful acts provisions Must be built up within five years from their appointment and retained throughout their tenure. Refer to page 211 of the 2022 UBS Group AG Annual Report for further information; 1 Performance awards to GEB members who are SMF/MRT are subject to additional deferral and vesting requirements. 16#18LTIP now applied to GEB members only; performance metrics unchanged Absolute performance metric: return on CET1 capital (ROCET1); reflects our strategic return ambitions and considers our financial targets, as well as our cost of capital as outlined below - - The required ROCET1 performance for a maximum payout is set at 18%, which represents the upper end of our target range, without encouraging excessive risk-taking The required performance threshold for the minimum payout is 8% and was increased from 6% starting with LTIP awards granted in 2022 for 2021 performance. The mid-point of the payout thresholds appropriately reflects our cost of equity Relative performance metric: relative Total Shareholder Return (rTSR) The metric compares the total shareholder return (the TSR) of UBS with the TSR of an index consisting of listed Global Systemically Important Banks (G-SIBs) as determined by the Financial Stability Board (excluding UBS Group); the G-SIBS are independently defined and reflect companies with a comparable risk profile and impact on the global economy - The linear payout design between threshold and maximum level supports our growth ambitions and our focus on delivering sustainable performance without encouraging excessive risk-taking The index, which includes publicly traded G-SIBS is equal weighted, calculated in Swiss francs, and maintained by an independent index provider, so as to ensure independence of the TSR calculation The payout interval of ±25 percentage points (pps) versus the index performance demonstrates our ambition of delivering attractive relative returns to shareholders. The linear payout and the threshold level set below index performance further support sustainability of results and prudent risk-taking LTIP payout illustration The final number of notional shares vesting will vary based on the achievement versus the performance metrics Linear payout between threshold and maximum performance Vesting levels are a percentage of the maximum opportunity of the LTIP and cannot exceed 100% Full forfeiture for performance below the predefined threshold levels UBS Below threshold (<8%) Full forfeiture (payout 0%) ROCET1 (weight: 50%) Below threshold (<-25 pps) Full forfeiture (payout 0%) Portion vesting - RoCET1 Portion vesting - rTSR 50% 40% 30% 20% Partial vest (payout between 33% and <100%) 10% 0% rTSR (weight: 50%) Performance metric: average ROCET1 (50% of award) Threshold (8%) up to maximum (<18%) 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% I Performance metric: rTSR vs. G-SIBS index (50% of award) Threshold (-25 pps) up to maximum (+25%) Partial vest (payout between 33% and <100%) 8% ROCET1 (25 pps) from index I 18% ROCET1 pps +25 from index Maximum and above (≥18%) Full vest (payout 100%) Maximum and above (≥ +25 pps) Full vest (payout 100%) 17#19Motion to discharge BoD and GEB for financial year 2022 Motion - The Board of Directors proposes that discharge of the members of the Board of Directors and the Group Executive Board for the financial year 2022 be granted, excluding all issues related to the French cross-border matter Explanation – The Board of Directors acknowledges that the judgment in the French cross-border matter issued in February 2019 contributed to shareholders not granting the discharge at the 2019 AGM - On 13 December 2021, the French Court of Appeal reduced aggregate penalties and damages to EUR 1.8bn from EUR 4.5bn aggregate penalties and damages awarded by the Court of First Instance in France in February 2019. UBS has taken additional provisions for this matter of EUR 650m, bringing the total provisions for this matter to EUR 1.1bn as of 31 December 2022 - UBS has appealed the decision of the French Court of Appeal. As a result, the ongoing proceedings in France may still be considered too much of an uncertainty in the context of the grant of discharge. Therefore the Board of Directors proposes that discharge for the 2022 financial year be granted with the explicit exclusion of all issues related to the French cross-border matter French cross-border matter stakeholder update (first published 21 January 2020, with an addendum published on 20 December 2021 on ubs.com/investors) UBS has compiled and published a report on the French cross-border matter to answer some of the most common questions that its shareholders, clients and employees have asked after the judgment was issued.

While these forward- looking statements represent UBS's judgments, expectations and objectives concerning the matters described, a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors could cause actual developments and results to differ materially from UBS's expectations. The Russia-Ukraine war has led to heightened volatility across global markets, exacerbated global inflation, and slowed global growth. In addition, the war has caused significant population displacement, and if the conflict continues or escalates, the scale of disruption will increase and continue to cause shortages of vital commodities, including energy shortages and food insecurity, and may lead to recessions in OECD economies. The coordinated sanctions on Russia and Belarus, and Russian and Belarusian entities and nationals, and the uncertainty as to whether the war will widen and intensify, may have significant adverse effects on the market and macroeconomic conditions, including in ways that cannot be anticipated. This creates significantly greater uncertainty about forward-looking statements. Other factors that may affect our performance and ability to achieve our plans, outlook and other objectives also include, but are not limited to: (i) the degree to which UBS is successful in the ongoing execution of its strategic plans, including its cost reduction and efficiency initiatives and its ability to manage its levels of risk-weighted assets (RWA) and leverage ratio denominator (LRD), liquidity coverage ratio and other financial resources, including changes in RWA assets and liabilities arising from higher market volatility; (ii) the degree to which UBS is successful in implementing changes to its businesses to meet changing market, regulatory and other conditions; (iii) increased interest rate volatility in major markets; (iv) developments in the macroeconomic climate and in the markets in which UBS operates or to which it is exposed, including movements in securities prices or liquidity, credit spreads, currency exchange rates, the effects of economic conditions, including increasing inflationary pressures, market developments, increasing geopolitical tensions, and changes to national trade policies on the financial position or creditworthiness of UBS's clients and counterparties, as well as on client sentiment and levels of activity, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to manage it, which have had and may also continue to have a significant adverse effect on global and regional economic activity, including disruptions to global supply chains and labor market displacements; (v) changes in the availability of capital and funding, including any changes in UBS's credit spreads and ratings, as well as availability and cost of funding to meet requirements for debt eligible for total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC); (vi) changes in central bank policies or the implementation of financial legislation and regulation in Switzerland, the US, the UK, the European Union and other financial centers that have imposed, or resulted in, or may do so in the future, more stringent or entity-specific capital, TLAC, leverage ratio, net stable funding ratio, liquidity and funding requirements, heightened operational resilience requirements, incremental tax requirements, additional levies, limitations on permitted activities, constraints on remuneration, constraints on transfers of capital and liquidity and sharing of operational costs across the Group or other measures, and the effect these will or would have on UBS's business activities; (vii) UBS's ability to successfully implement resolvability and related regulatory requirements and the potential need to make further changes to the legal structure or booking model of UBS Group in response to legal and regulatory requirements, or other external developments; (viii) UBS's ability to maintain and improve its systems and controls for complying with sanctions in a timely manner and for the detection and prevention of money laundering to meet evolving regulatory requirements and expectations, in particular in current geopolitical turmoil; (ix) the uncertainty arising from domestic stresses in certain major economies; (x) changes in UBS's competitive position, including whether differences in regulatory capital and other requirements among the major financial centers adversely affect UBS's ability to compete in certain lines of business; (xi) changes in the standards of conduct applicable to our businesses that may result from new regulations or new enforcement of existing standards, including measures to impose new and enhanced duties when interacting with customers and in the execution and handling of customer transactions; (xii) the liability to which UBS may be exposed, or possible constraints or sanctions that regulatory authorities might impose on UBS, due to litigation, contractual claims and regulatory investigations, including the potential for disqualification from certain businesses, potentially large fines or monetary penalties, or the loss of licenses or privileges as a result of regulatory or other governmental sanctions, as well as the effect that litigation, regulatory and similar matters have on the operational risk component of our RWA, as well as the amount of capital available for return to shareholders; (xiii) the effects on UBS's business, in particular cross-border banking, of sanctions, tax or regulatory developments and of possible changes in UBS's policies and practices; (xiv) UBS's ability to retain and attract the employees necessary to generate revenues and to manage, support and control its businesses, which may be affected by competitive factors; (xv) changes in accounting or tax standards or policies, and determinations or interpretations affecting the recognition of gain or loss, the valuation of goodwill, the recognition of deferred tax assets and other matters; (xvi) UBS's ability to implement new technologies and business methods, including digital services and technologies, and ability to successfully compete with both existing and new financial service providers, some of which may not be regulated to the same extent; (xvii) limitations on the effectiveness of UBS's internal processes for risk management, risk control, measurement and modeling, and of financial models generally; (xviii) the occurrence of operational failures, such as fraud, misconduct, unauthorized trading, financial crime, cyberattacks, data leakage and systems failures, the risk of which is increased with cyberattack threats from nation states; (xix) restrictions on the ability of UBS Group AG to make payments or distributions, including due to restrictions on the ability of its subsidiaries to make loans or distributions, directly or indirectly, or, in the case of financial difficulties, due to the exercise by FINMA or the regulators of UBS's operations in other countries of their broad statutory powers in relation to protective measures, restructuring and liquidation proceedings; (xx) the degree to which changes in regulation, capital or legal structure, financial results or other factors may affect UBS's ability to maintain its stated capital return objective; (xxi) uncertainty over the scope of actions that may be required by UBS, governments and others for UBS to achieve goals relating to climate, environmental and social matters, as well as the evolving nature of underlying science and industry and the possibility of conflict between different governmental standards and regulatory regimes; and (xxii) the effect that these or other factors or unanticipated events may have on our reputation and the additional consequences that this may have on our business and performance. The sequence in which the factors above are presented is not indicative of their likelihood of occurrence or the potential magnitude of their consequences. Our business and financial performance could be affected by other factors identified in our past and future filings and reports, including those filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). More detailed information about those factors is set forth in documents furnished by UBS and filings made by UBS with the SEC, including UBS's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2022. UBS is not under any obligation to (and expressly disclaims any obligation to) update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
