New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $1.15 million high/low coupon callable yield notes on Russell, ETFs

By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., Feb. 7 - Credit Suisse AG, Nassau Branch priced $1.15 million of high/low coupon callable yield notes due Aug. 8, 2014 linked to the Russell 2000 index, the United States Oil Fund, LP and the Market Vectors Gold Miners exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A knock-in event will occur if any underlying component closes at or below its knock-in level, 65% of its initial level, during the life of the notes.

Interest is payable monthly. The coupon will be 16% per year unless a knock-in event occurs, in which case the coupon will be 1% per year for that and each subsequent month.

The payout at maturity will be par unless a knock-in event has occurred, in which case the payout will be par plus the return of the lowest-performing underlying component, subject to a maximum payout of par.

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

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the underwriter.
