By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Nov. 3 - Credit Suisse, Nassau Branch priced $582,000 of 8% callable yield notes due Nov. 4, 2010 linked to the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets index fund, Russell 2000 index and S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
