Our straight up measure of absolute business conditions came in at 4.2, 6% below recent peak at 4.5 in March. • Customer interest improvement slows Four out of five component scores moved lower with declines in our customer interest and outlook scores driving the majority of the drop in our index, partially offset by continued inventory improvement.

Customer interest continues to improve the most in North America (64) followed by Latin America (60) and Asia (59) while deteriorating in the Middle East (48) and Europe (30). See positive risk-rewards for stocks Despite weakness in our survey, we continue to believe North American bizjet market is improving, driven by replacement demand postponed during the downturn.

EFTA01177187 UBS ButesJet Survey 30 May 2012 Business Jet Market Survey Ow UBS Business Jet Market Survey is designed to provide timely market data supplied directly by industry professionals. We regularly survey a group of US domestic and international broker/dealers, manufacturers, fractional providers, financiers and others, from whom we recently received 162 responses. Investment Conclusion Our latest Business Jet Market Index came in at 43, 13% lower than ow prior survey in March on slowing incremental improvement in customer interest/outlook along with still weak pricing. The decline in our Index reverses the improvement seen in March with all three of our market segment indices lower with large cabin down the most. Ow straight up measure of absolute business conditions came in at 4.2, 6% below recent peak at 4.5 in March. Four out of five component scores moved lower with large declines in our customer interest and outlook scores driving the majority of the drop in ow index, partially offset by continued inventory improvement. While lower from ow prior survey, ow interest and outlook scores remain above 50, indicating incremental improvement. Our customer interest score moved 19% lower to 56, slightly above 50 still indicating improving customer interest. Our young inventory score, not a component of our index, moved 2% higher this time to 43, still indicative of oversupply of high•quality young used aircraft. Our financing score, also not a component of our index, moved 9% lower, but remains above 50 reflecting improved financing availability.

Overall Business Conditions ■ Mixed signals in the market. Recovery is even slower than forecast. ■ The Hawker Beechcraft bankruptcy is not good for our industry. ■ Markets stable to slightly improving. ■ Although inventory is high by historical standards, more than half is older equipment that may in fact be already "retired". ■ Really no change — we're just bumping along the bottom. ■ It seems like the turboprop market is gaining some momentum. Maybe it will eventually give the low end jet market some momentum. ■ Expect the resale market to remain soft into 2013. Aircraft Values / Pricing ■ Older jets have seen their values plummet, but on the flip side that represents amazing value to buyers in that segment. Good airplanes, priced right are selling. ■ Older aircraft continue to decrease in value. Near new aircraft are in strong demand and have the highest prices. ■ Pricing remains flat in most markets as interest has increased but demand is still very price sensitive. ■ Buyers are very focused on operating cost and future investments. ■ Extremely low prices are very attractive. We expect 8-10 year old large cabin aircraft on average will cost 50% more in 5 years time. Customer Interest ■ Slight improvement in buyer interest and willingness to complete a transaction. ■ Difficult trading conditions despite interest levels. ■ No buyers. ■ Things are a little quieter in the last two months. ■ Buyer interest is up and people seem more willing to jump into the market. ■ I have noticed pull back in willingness to buy. Buyer activity was much stronger in February and March versus now. Regional Trends ■ The dire economic situation in Europe has caused sales on that continent to suffer, while continued uncertainty in the US and the upcoming election all add to an attitude of extreme caution by would-be buyers. U13S16 EFTA01177202 UBS Business Jet Survey 30 May 2012 ■ Europe continues to be very unstable. ■ Markets seem to be flattening on a global level with good support, but no real growth currently. ■ With the financial situation in France and Southern Europe, Europe seems to be waiting to see what will (eventually) happen. Sub continent Asia still seeing strong customer interest from serious buyers. ■ US market continues to strengthen. Europe is very weak. ■ Fear of impact of Euro zone crisis. ■ Uncertainty in Europe and election year has kept optimism tepid. Financing ■ We are being visited by more banks seeking aircraft finance business; many regional banks seem to have an appetite for it. However, when we delve into what kind of business they are hoping to garner, it's really the A•paper or top quality notes they want to write. ■ Lenders don't want anything to do with older airplanes and it's not worth their time to get involved with deals less than about three million dollars. They are ignoring a huge portion of the market which only serves to depress values of those airplanes. ■ Even though there are more financial institutions in the mix, the overall availability of financing has not improved. ■ I find financing to still be a big problem. ■ Statement of Risk The business jet market is cyclical in nature, largely driven by the general economic environment. Business jet manufacturers' earnings and cash flow are dependent on end•user demand, availability of customer financing, program execution and inventory management. Our estimates, ratings and price targets for General Dynamics, Textron and Rockwell Collins are subject to additional risks including poor program execution and government funding related to their defense and security businesses. Additionally, Textron faces liquidity risks related to it its asset based lending businesses.

(See 'UBS Investment Research: Global Equity Rating Definitions' table for details). From September 9, 2006 through August 3, 2007 the UBS ratings and their definitions were: Buy 1 = FSR is > 6% above the MRA, higher degree of predictability; Buy 2= FSR is > 6% above the MRA, lower degree of predictability; Neutral 1 = FSR is between -6% and 6% of the MRA, higher degree of predictability; Neutral 2 = FSR is between -6% and 6% of the MRA, lower degree of predictability; Reduce 1 = FSR is > 6% below the MRA, higher degree of predictability; Reduce 2 = FSR is > 6% below the MRA, lower degree of predictability. The predictability level indicates an analyst's conviction in the FSR. A predictability level of '1' means that the analyst's estimate of FSR is in the middle of a narrower, or smaller, range of possibilities. A predictability level of '2' means that the analyst's estimate of FSR is in the middle of a broader, or larger, range of possibilities. From October 13, 2003 through September 8, 2006 the percentage band criteria used in the rating system was 10%. Additional Prices: Bombardier Inc., C$3.95 (29 May 2012); Embraer.
