UBS Business Jet Survey
Recovery Stalls
• Index holds at 50
Our March Business Jet Index came in at 50, indicative of a stable market and in
line with our prior survey from January following increases in each of our previous
eight surveys. While our Index continues to reflect a stable market, our straight up
measure of absolute business conditions moved modestly lower this time, the first
decline since March of 2009 and indicative of a slight degradation in market
conditions since January.
• Survey reflects improving customer interest
Our survey continues to reflect improving customer interest and a strong I2-month
outlook, although it is still weighed down by very high used inventory levels.
Pricing in most models is off 30-40% from peak levels, but now appears to be
stabilizing. Overall, our respondents cited an increased willingness to add to their
own inventories this time, reflecting increased confidence in near-term
pricing/liquidity. Despite improved buyer interest/outlook. we think significant
oversupply on the used market, particularly in small/midsize aircraft, will continue
to overhang new aircraft orders.
• Prefer GD/COL
Our Buy rating on GI) reflects an improved defense risk profile and stabilization in
our bizjet survey, with particular strength at the high end. Our Neutral rating on
TXT reflects concerns over the shape of the recovery at Cessna, given significant
oversupply, fractional weakness, and increased competition at the low-mid end
(Embraer). Of the suppliers. Buy rated COL is our preferred play on business jets.

UBS Business Jet Survey 24 Mach 2010
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 received 150 responses in March.
Investment Conclusion
Our March Business Jet Index came in at 50, indicative of a stable market and in
line with our prior survey from January following increases in each of our
previous eight surveys. Our Index measures the change in our respondents'
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
continues to reflect a depressed market, moving modestly lower this time to 3.6
(from 3.7), the first decline since March of 2009 and indicative of a slight
degradation in overall market conditions since our prior survey.
Our survey continues to reflect improving customer interest and a strong I?-
month outlook, although it is still weighed down by very high used inventory
levels. Pricing in most models is off 30-40% from peak levels, but now appears
to be stabilizing. Overall, our respondents cited an increased willingness to add
to their own inventories this time, reflecting increased confidence in near term
pricing/liquidity. Despite improved buyer interest/outlook, we think significant
oversupply on the used market, particularly in small/midsize aircraft, will
continue to overhang new aircraft orders.
While not a component of our composite index, our young inventory score
remains well below 50, indicating significant oversupply of high-quality young
used aircraft. Our Financing score, also not a component of our index, continues
to reflect incremental improvement in financing availability.

UBS Business Jet Market Index
Our UBS Business Jet Index is a proprietary index designed to measure the total
"value" of the responses to our survey questions. We have weighted 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
March Business Jet Index came in at 50, indicative of a stable market and in line
with our prior survey from January.

Overall Business Conditions
In the first question, we asked, "On a scale of zero to 10, how would you
characterize overall business conditions after factoring typical seasonality (0 =
the worst ever, 5 = normal, 10 = the best ever)?" Note that while our Business
Jet Market Index (discussed earlier) indicates incremental change from the prior
period, this question is meant to measure the absolute level of business
conditions. We received 144 responses (six participants did not respond to this
question) with scores ranging from zero to eight.

Willingness to Increase Inventories
In the next question, we asked, "Over the next month, will you be more or less
willing to increase your inventory?" In this question, we again targeted
broker/dealers, but in some cases, other participants also responded. The survey
participants were asked to select "more willing", "same", or "less willing." Of
the 76 responses (74 participants did not respond to this question), 26%
indicated they would be more willing to take on inventory, while 21% indicated
they would be less willing to take on inventory. The remaining 53% indicated no
change in their willingness to take on inventory. This represents an improvement
from our prior survey, in which 25% indicated they would be more willing to
take on inventory, 26% indicated they would be less willing to take on inventory
and the remaining 49% indicated no change in their willingness to take on
inventory. We use this question to validate sentiment in the marketplace with
regard to the near-term outlook.

Commentary
The following are selected comments from business jet professionals.
Current Market Conditions
■ Things are getting better, but we are not in a 'V' recovery, not even close.
■ Still too many buyers only interested in buying at wholesale prices.
■ We have seen a strong upturn, back to the levels of 18 months ago.
■ International (Non-US) markets are holding a good level of interest and
sales, reflecting an improved economy in some regions, Brazil for example.
■ Flying has picked up 5-10% since this time last year.
■ Best first quarter in years! Prices have been dropping over the last couple of
weeks, which probably helps. Business is getting better by the day!
■ Business is improving.
■ The used market is approaching normal levels, although pricing remains
highly depressed.
Interest & Inquiries
■ Call volume and interest are still rising, with most of our interest coming
from overseas.
■ There is activity in the marketplace but it seems to come in spurts. Other
dealers have said the same thing to me. Things heat up, some sales take
place and then everything goes quiet for a few weeks.
■ We continue to observe a gradual improvement in demand.
■ Interest levels continue to rise, but this has not yet translated into a
significant improvement in sales.
Pricing
■ Buyers are seeking large discounts on repo purchases.
■ We have been trading corporate jets in the global market since 1977 and this
is the worst price collapse we have ever seen.
■ Increasing rumors about heavily discounted new OEM product are
negatively impacting pre-owned valuations.
■ Gulfstream products remain the strongest; Challenger 604 and Citation Excel
have improved; Citation X and Hawker 400/800 are still declining.
■ Prices continue to erode.
■ Prices arc still low and buyers are looking for bargains, but them are plenty
of buyers out there.
USS 15
EFTA_R1_01519457
EFTA02443891
UBS Business Jet Survey 241402010
Financing
■ Liquidity has yet to fully return. The banks are hurting their asset value by
failing to fund an orderly market again.
■ Dealer floor plan financiers are nearly extinct.
■ As the market works through inventory, credit will become more available.
However, we may never sec rates go as low as in the past.
■ Financing is very difficult to find.
■ Banks' client selection and underwriting scrutiny have never been more
stringent.
■ While lender scrutiny is relaxing and overall the financing environment
appears to be opening up, availability remains depressed. We are still far
from the conditions of 2006-07.
■ Still very limited lending.
■ Many banks and finance companies are more focused on reducing repo
inventory than supporting buyers with competitive financing.
Transactions
■ It is a kind of hit or miss world for most. If the moon, sun and stars align and
you have the right buyer, seller and airplane you can make a deal.
■ Younger aircraft are selling, while older aircraft are taking forever to sell.
■ In the last 30 days we have closed four transactions to retail buyers.
■ The market has improved somewhat, but buyers are still a bit hesitant to pull
the trigger. International buyers are only slightly more aggressive.
■ We have three aircraft pending sale: one Challenger 601 and two Hawker
800s. All three are for retail customers with financing secured, and all are
likely to close within the next 1-3 weeks, but these are VERY cheap
compared to the rest of the market and compared to book value.
Outlook
■ I do not expect the market to fully recover for at least another 1-2 years.
■ We may be running into a double-dip situation, similar to 1984.85.
■ The traditional corporate flight department is awakening from its long winter
nap, which should mean a much stronger 2010-1 I than 2009.
■ Until we see hiring resume, production increase, housing starts and sales on a
steady incline, consumer spending increase and consumer confidence grow
each month we will see more of the same in aircraft sales activity.
■ The two major hurdles are the trade gap and credit availability / rates.

■ 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 arc
dependent on end-user demand, availability of customer financing, program
execution and inventory management. Our estimates, ratings and price targets
for both General Dynamics and Textron 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.

KEY DEFINITIONS
Forecast Stock Return (FSR) is defined as expected percentage price appreciation plus gross dividend yield over the next 12
months.
Market Return Assumption (MRA) is defined as the one-year local market interest rate plus 5% (a proxy for, and not a
forecast of. the equity risk premium).
Under Review (UR) Stocks may be flagged as UR by the analyst, indicating that the stock's price target and/or rating are
subject to possible change in the near term, usually in response to an event that may affect the investment case or valuation.
Short-Term Ratings reflect the expected near-term (up to three months) performance of the stock and do not reflect any
change in the fundamental view or investment case.
Equity Price Targets have an investment horizon of 12 months.
EXCEPTIONS AND SPECIAL CASES
UK and European Investment Fund ratings and definitions are: Buy: Positive on factors such as structure, management,
performance record, discount; Neutral: Neutral on factors such as structure, management, performance record, discount; Sell:
Negative on factors such as structure, management, performance record, discount.
Core Banding Exceptions (CBE): Exceptions to the standard +/-6% bands may be granted by the Investment Review
Committee (IRC). Factors considered by the IRC include the stock's volatility and the credit spread of the respective company's
debt. As a result, stocks deemed to be very high or low risk may be subject to higher or lower bands as they relate to the rating.
When such exceptions apply, they will be identified in the Company Disclosures table in the relevant research piece.

Note: On August 4.2007 UBS revised its rating system. (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 analysts 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%.
