By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Dec. 20 - Credit Suisse AG, Nassau Branch priced $1.14 million of high/low coupon callable yield notes due Dec. 21, 2012 linked to the S&P 500 index, the Russell 2000 index and the United States Oil Fund, LP, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A knock-in event occurs if either underlying index or fund falls to or below 60% of its initial level during a quarterly observation period.

If a knock-in event never occurs, the coupon will be 16.25%. Otherwise, the coupon for that interest period and each subsequent interest period will be 1%. Interest is payable quarterly.

The notes are callable on any interest payment date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless a knock-in event occurs, in which case the payout will be par plus the return of the worst-performing component, up to a maximum payout of par.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
