UBS UBS Investment Research UBS Business Jet Survey Stable Overall, North America Improving • Index at 41, unchanged from \ovember Our latest Business Jet Market Index came in at 41, in line with our prior survey from November as an uptick in small cabin offset slight declines in midlarge. Our straight up measure of absolute business conditions declined 2% to 4.0. Overall, it appears the market has held relatively stable despite continued economic uncertainty. • North America customer interest improving While weak pricing and high levels of inventory remain a drag on the market, our survey continues to indicate that customer interest is improving and participants are optimistic looking out. Our overall customer interest score increased 3% to 55 this time with North America (59), Asia (58) and Latin America (52) reflecting incremental improvement, partially offset by declining interest in the Middle East (44) and Europe (31). Our participants indicated bonus depreciation did not meaningfully impact year end activity. See positive ilsk-rewards for bizjet stocks While our survey of industry professionals and other key bizjet market indicators have held stable, we believe North America bizjet is improving off the bottom, driven by replacement demand postponed during the downturn. We see positive risk-rewards with the stocks that we think still incorporate little for business jets at current levels including Buy-rated COLJGD/TXT.

E FTA_R 1_00225638 EFTA01840639 UN Business Jet Survey 2 February 2012 Business Jet Market Survey Our 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 161 responses. Investment Conclusion Our latest Business Jet Market Index came in at 41, in line with our prior survey from November as an uptick in small cabin offset slight declines in mid/large. Our index measures the change in respondent's views from our prior survey and is not meant to be an absolute measure of business conditions. Our straight up measure of absolute business conditions declined 2% to 4.0. Overall, it appears the market has held relatively stable despite continued economic uncertainty. While weak pricing and high levels of inventory remain a drag on the market, our survey continues to indicate that customer interest is improving and participants arc optimistic looking out. Our 12-month outlook score increased 11% to 66, above the 50 mark, indicating an incrementally more positive outlook. Our customer interest score increased 3% this time to 55, indicating that customer interest was stronger relative to our prior survey. Our willingness score moved 9% higher to 44, although still below 50 indicating continued declines in participants' willingness to take on additional inventory. Improvements in our interest, outlook and willingness scores were offset by declines in inventory and pricing. Our overall inventory score declined 19% to IS. and remains well below 50 reflecting continued oversupply, while our pricing score declined 17% to 33, indicating continued pricing declines. Our young inventory score, not a component of our index, moved 7% lower this time to 40, still indicative of oversupply of high-quality young used aircraft. Our financing score, also not a component of our index, remained above 50. reflecting continued improvement in financing availability.

We have weights each factor in our index based on our perception of its overall importance to the condition of the new business jet market. Our index is scored on a scale of zero to 100, with 51-100 representing incrementally strengthening market conditions, 50 incrementally stable, and 0-49 incrementally weakening market conditions. Our January Business Jet Market Index came in at 41, in line with our prior survey in November.

Overall Business Conditions ■ A cautious market but trending up. ■ Trading conditions remain difficult, but interest remains good at all levels. ■ Do not anticipate any sort of recovery until 2013. ■ Year end activity was somewhat bolstered by bonus depreciation and some pent up demand. ■ Activity levels improved in November. December and January. ■ Finally seeing some interest in midsize/large cabin segment, but small cabin segment has been slow. ■ Lots of activity in 4Q related to bonus depreciation on new aircraft side. The worst isn't over. ■ Slowly getting better. ■ Much more activity in last 30 days. ■ Improving market, especially on long range and ultra-long range. ■ Business is pent-up, but remains slow. ■ Activity slowly getting better, but still more sellers than buyers. ■ The momentum is definitely positive for 2012 following a very good 2011. Aircraft Values / Pricing ■ With bonus deprecation gone, the temporary increase in the (after tax) gap between new and late model used is gone. This may lead to strengthening in late model used prices. ■ Near new aircraft still commanding top dollar, while anything older than two years is weaker and seems to have potential to weaken. ■ Prices of large cabin jets are extremely high, but they are not selling as well as they have in the past. ■ After firming during summer 2011, prices took another dip in Q3 and Q4 with a slug of new inventory on the market. • Now entering typically slower Q1 with about average activity for season. Customer Interest ■ Seeing improving interest for newer aircraft. ■ Entry level, light and large cabin aircraft markets are active: midsize and super-midsize remain inactive. UBS 16 EFTA_R1_00225653 EFTA01840654 MS Mamas at Survey 2 February 2012 ■ We're still bumping along the bottom, though late, low-time, large-cabin aircraft remain desirable. ■ New, heavy aircraft models are still strong. ■ Mid-market pricing still very weak as manufacturers continue to give away planes. ■ There has been a notable drop in customer purchase intentions. ■ We have seen incredibly high customer interest since Q4, which seems to be continuing on into this year. ■ We have as many sales on the go at the moment as we had back in the good times, but each sale is hard work and prices are very low. US Market ■ US market showing decent levels of interest, driven by need to get on with aircraft replacement; bonus depreciation is helping. Seeing a dramatic improvement in U.S. buyers' interests in both new and used aircraft. ■ US buyers are out there, but are looking to acquire aircraft at dealer pricing. International Western Europe showing very weak levels of buying activity. ■ Emerging market activity continues to be relatively strong. ■ The international venues remain selectively active. ■ BRIC countries still showing strong demand. Financing ■ Although most activity is cash, we have found some interest in financing and even some financing for 25 to 30 year old aircraft. ■ Each bank seems to be offering different finance options, which is opening the doors for some much needed money. ■ Still no real foreign financing. ■ No financing for older aircraft. ■ Continued weak loan demand. ■ Deals taking a considerable amount of time to close, but closing. U6517 EFTA_R1_00225654 EFTA01840655 UN Business Jet Survey 2 February 2012 • 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 arc 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. ■ Analyst Certification Each research analyst primarily responsible for the content of this research report, in whole or in part, certifies that with to each security or issuer that the analyst covered in this report: (1) all of the views expressed accurately reflect his or her personal views about those securities or issuers and were prepared in an independent manner, including with respect to UBS. and (2) no part of his or her compensation was, is, or will be, directly or indirectly, related to the specific recommendations or views expressed by that research analyst in the research report.

(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 analysts 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%.
