About the UBS Next Generation Internet Index

The UBS Next Generation Internet Index (the “Index”) is intended to measure, on a total-return basis, the performance of a subset of Internet-related companies listed on the NYSE or NASDAQ that satisfy specified market capitalization and other eligibility requirements. The Index provides exposure specifically to those Internet-related companies that have been publicly traded for less than three years. The Index currently serves as the reference index for the ETRACS Next Generation Internet ETN (NYSE: EIPO) and the ETRACS Monthly 2xLeveraged Next Generation Internet ETN (NYSE: EIPL). Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC serves as the calculation agent for the Index.
