Morgantown, W.Va., May 19 – Credit Suisse AG, Nassau Branch priced another $408,053 of 0% Credit Suisse X-Links Cushing MLP Infrastructure exchange-traded notes due April 20, 2020 linked to the Cushing 30 MLP index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The $400,000 principal amount of additional notes priced in two tranches, $200,000 at 100.9005 and $200,000 at 103.126, for total proceeds $408,053.
The original $15 million of notes priced on April 13, 2010.
The goal of the index is to track the performance of 30 companies that hold mid-stream energy infrastructure assets in North America. Included securities must be publicly traded and must represent the limited or general partner interests of a partnership that is an operating company or common units of a limited liability company that is an operating company.
The notes will pay a quarterly distribution equal to the cash distributions a “reference holder” would have been entitled to receive during that period. A “reference holder” is a hypothetical holder of a number of units of each index master limited partnership equal to (a) the number of units of that MLP represented in the index multiplied by (b) 0.070691, which is 20 divided by the initial index level.
The payout at maturity will be par of $20.00 plus the index return, which could be positive or negative, minus a fee factor of 0.85% per year.
The notes are putable in increments of $1 million or more on any business day, and they became callable on April 20, 2012 if the principal amount of the notes outstanding is $10 million or less. Both options expire on April 7, 2020.
The notes are listed on the NYSE Arca under the symbol “MLPN.”
