New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $1 million contingent coupon callable yield notes on two indexes

By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., July 25 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $1 million of contingent coupon callable yield notes due July 29, 2024 linked to the S&P 500 index and the Euro Stoxx 50 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent coupon at the applicable rate if each index closes at or above its barrier level, 60% of the initial level, on any quarterly observation date. The applicable rate is 6.325% for the first four years, stepping up to 7.825% on July 30, 2018 and to 9.825% on July 28, 2021. Interest, if any, is payable quarterly.

The notes will be callable at par plus the contingent coupon, if any, on any quarterly interest payment date beginning July 28, 2015.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes at or below its 50% knock-in level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the worst-performing index.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
