New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $2.46 million high/low coupon callable notes tied to Russell, oil fund

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Oct. 31 - Credit Suisse AG, Nassau Branch priced $2.46 million of high/low coupon callable yield notes due Jan. 31, 2014 linked to 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 any underlying component ever falls to or below the 65% trigger level during the life of the notes.

The coupon will be 12% if a knock-in event never occurs during any quarterly observation period. Otherwise, the coupon for that period and each subsequent interest period will be 1%. Interest is payable quarterly.

The notes are callable at par on any interest payment date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either component falls to or below its knock-in level during the life of the notes, in which case investors will receive par plus the return of the worst-performing component, up to a maximum payout of par.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
