Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) This Statement is filed jointly by UBS AG for the benefit and on behalf of UBS Securities LLC and UBS Financial Services Inc., two-wholly owned subsidiaries of UBS AG to which UBS AG has delegated portions of its performance obligations with respect to the Auction Rate Securities Rights issued by UBS AG to certain clients and pursuant to which the securities reported herein have been purchased from such clients.
(2) Pursuant to the Global Relief Letter referred to below, this filing reports holdings of the Series of Auction Preferred Stock identified in Item 1 of this Table I on an aggregated basis.
(3) UBS AG does not currently own, and as never owned, 10% or more of the Auction Preferred Stock CUSIPs to which this Form 5 relates. The Form 3 initially filed by UBS AG in respect of such CUSIPs on June 10, 2009 was filed in error. UBS AG has thus never had, and currently does not have, a reportable position in such CUSIPs for purposes of Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
