By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Feb. 10 - Credit Suisse AG, Nassau Branch priced $1.25 million of 0% absolute return barrier securities due Aug. 11, 2015 linked to Amazon.com Inc. shares, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A knock-in event occurs if Amazon.com stock ever closes at or below the knock-in price - 75% of the initial price - on any day during the life of the notes.

If the stock finishes at or above the initial price, the payout at maturity will be par plus the gain, up to a maximum return of 30%.

If the stock finishes below the initial price and a knock-in event has not occurred, the payout will be par plus the absolute value of the stock return, up to a cap of 25.999%.

Otherwise, investors will receive par plus the stock return with full exposure to losses.
