By William Gullotti

Buffalo, N.Y., June 22 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $899,000 of contingent coupon autocallable reverse convertibles due May 21, 2024 linked to the lowest performing of the American Depositary Shares of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd., the common stock of Qualcomm Inc. and the common stock of Texas Instruments Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a quarterly coupon at an annualized rate of 8.35% if each stock closes at or above its coupon barrier price, 60% of its initial price, on the related observation date.

The notes will be called at par plus the coupon due if all stocks close at or above their initial prices on any quarterly call observation date.

If all stocks finish at or above their knock-in prices, 60% of their initial prices, the payout will be par plus the final coupon. If any stock finishes below its knock-in price, investors will be fully exposed to the losses of the least-performing stock from its initial level, with the proceeds delivered in shares of the least-performing stock or cash at the issuer’s election.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
