New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $465,000 autocallable securities on S&P, Russell

By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., May 29 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $465,000 of 0% autocallable securities due May 30, 2017 linked to the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will be automatically called at par plus an annualized redemption premium of 8% if each underlying index closes at or above its trigger level on any of four semiannual observation dates. The trigger level is 100% of the initial level.

A knock-in event occurs if either index closes below its knock-in level, 72.5% of its initial level, on any trading day during the life of the notes.

If the notes are not called and a knock-in event has not occurred, the payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent minimum return of 8%. If a knock-in event does occur, the payout will be par plus the return of the worst-performing index, with full exposure to losses.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
