Firm background 
 
UBS O’Connor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of UBS Asset 
Management (Americas) Inc. (“UBS AM”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of UBS Americas Inc., which is a 
wholly-owned subsidiary of UBS Americas Holding LLC, which in turn is owned by UBS AG and 
ultimately by UBS Group AG, a publicly traded Swiss corporation (SIX and NYSE: UBS) ("UBS"). The 
operational structure of UBS is comprised of the Corporate Center and four business divisions: Global 
Wealth Management, Personal & Corporate Banking, Asset Management and the Investment Bank. 
The UBS Asset Management business division was formed through the merger of Union Bank of 
Switzerland and Swiss Bank Corporation in 1998.  
O’Connor was established in January 2000 when a  proprietary trading group within UBS’ Investment 
Bank Division was transferred to the UBS Asset Management business division, establishing a newly formed 
investment management entity which provides investment advisory services to various types of pooled 
investment vehicles and institutional separately managed accounts, which are further described in this 
Firm Brochure..  O’Connor has been  registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission 
("SEC") as an investment adviser since its establishment and is part of the UBS Asset Management 
business division of UBS.  
In addition to O’Connor, the UBS Asset Management business division is itself divided into multiple 
separate businesses that provide asset management services globally. 
1. UBS AM offers discretionary and non-discretionary investment advisory, investment 
management and sub-advisory services to various clients through their Equities, Fixed Income, 
and Investment Solutions platforms and wrap fee programs. 
2. UBS Hedge Fund Solutions ("HFS"), another wholly-owned subsidiary of UBS AM, offers 
investment advisory services regarding investments in pooled investment vehicles, some of 
which are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 
“Investment Company Act”), as well as institutional and ultra-high net worth investors.  
3. UBS Real Estate & Private Markets ("REPM") includes: UBS Realty Investors LLC (“RE”), which 
offers real estate investments through commingled real estate funds and individually managed 
discretionary and non-discretionary real estate accounts; UBS Farmland Investors LLC 
(“Farmland”), which offers advice to clients in connection with the acquisition or sale and 
management of agricultural real estate; and direct real estate through infrastructure direct 
investment ("IDI") and multi-managers ("MM-RE"), which primarily construct bespoke 
portfolios and funds. 
4. UBS Asset Management Trust Company (the "Trust Company") acts as trustee and investment 
manager to certain collective investment trusts. 
5. UBS Fund Management Services ("FMS") provides administrative services primarily to traditional 
investment funds domiciled outside of the United States. 
The UBS AM, HFS, REPM, Trust Company and FMS businesses are not covered by this Firm Brochure. 
Types of advisory services 
O'Connor primarily provides both discretionary investment management services (clients who have 
authorized our firm to execute transactions for their accounts without prior approval) and non-
discretionary investment advisory  services (clients who require that transactions be either traded by or 
authorized by them in advance) to various types of pooled  investment vehicles, (which may or may not 
be exempt from registration), and  institutional separately managed accounts ("SMAs") (collectively, 
"Clients"). Specific investment objectives, strategies, risks, fees  and expenses are described in detail in 
each Client's investment management agreement, confidential offering  memorandum and/or other 
governing documents (each as applicable, and collectively, "Governing Documents").   
Certain of O’Connor’s private investment vehicle Clients may operate under a fund-of-fund, multi-
manager, or multi-strategy structure, where O’Connor selects a portfolio of different underlying funds 
or strategies for such Clients. O’Connor may also engage the services of sub-advisors for certain of its 
Client accounts. 
O'Connor generally uses a combination of fundamental and/or quantitative analysis when formulating its 
investment advice or managing Client assets, but may use additional or alternative approaches as it 
deems necessary or appropriate. 
Additionally, O’Connor may seek the advice and assistance of its non-U.S. affiliates within the UBS 
Asset Management business division in providing investment supervisory services to its U.S. clients (in 
such capacity, "Participating Affiliates"). Please see Item

Restrictions regarding certain types of services and investments 
O'Connor is a part of a global financial services firm and may be precluded from acquiring or selling 
certain securities or investments on behalf of itself and Clients as a result of inside information, conflicts 
of interests or other applicable laws or regulations.  Ultimate ownership by a foreign bank (UBS) subjects 
O’Connor to certain provisions of the Bank  Holding Company Act (“BHCA”). The BHCA may, in  certain 
circumstances, limit our Client's ownership of stock issued by other U.S. companies and other bank 
holding companies that are subject to the BHCA. O'Connor Client accounts generally will not be able to 
invest in securities solely issued by UBS. 
O'Connor or UBS adhere to global policies that require compliance with relevant regulatory and legal 
requirements. An example of such a requirement would be sanctions, which are any measure or 
restriction  (including those often referred to as embargoes), taken by one or more countries, their 
respective  government agencies or by an international organization, which is aimed at restricting 
dealings of any   kind with or involving another country, specific persons, legal entities, organizations or 
goods. O'Connor  o r  UBS may also deem certain additional countries or industries to be high risk and 
may restrict business activities with certain countries, governments, government controlled entities, 
territories or persons. In some cases, business activities are expressly prohibited, where other  cases may 
require pre-approval from regional compliance personnel before any business activity can be  considered.  
In addition, O'Connor has policies in place that prohibit securities of certain  companies to be included in 
institutional funds and in discretionary mandates.  Such prohibitions include, but are not limited to, a 
ban on companies involved in the development,  production or purchase of cluster munitions and anti-
personnel mines, pursuant to the Swiss Federal Act on War Materials.   
Similarly, other state, federal or national laws may restrict our Client's aggregate ownership of stock 
issued by  certain companies. As a result of these possible limitations, O'Connor may not be able to 
purchase  securities that our models would otherwise indicate that we should, and therefore an account 
would not  participate in the "upside" of such purchase (if any).
