By Tali Rackner

Minneapolis, April 20 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $2.21 million of contingent coupon autocallable reverse convertible securities due April 15, 2019 linked to the common stock of Applied Materials, Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 14.73% if the stock closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if the stock closes at or above its initial level on July 10, Oct. 10 or Jan. 9, 2019.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the shares finish below the 70% knock-in level, in which case investors will receive a number of shares equal to $1,000 divided by the initial share price or, at the issuer’s option, the cash equivalent.
