By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., Aug. 13 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $530,000 of 8.5% autocallable reverse convertible securities due Aug. 14, 2015 linked to the common stock of VMware, Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest is payable monthly.

The notes will be automatically called at par on Jan. Feb. 11, 2015 or May 11, 2015 if the closing price is greater than the initial share price.
