New Issue: Credit Suisse sells $10.1 million index knock-out notes linked to S&P 500 via JPMorgan

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Nov. 24 - Credit Suisse, Nassau Branch priced $10.1 million of 0% auto-callable index knock-out notes due Aug. 27, 2010 based on the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA are the agents.

If the index closes at or above 107% of its initial level on any review date, the notes will be called at 107% of par. The review dates are the second business day of each week beginning Dec. 1.

If the notes are not called and the index falls to or below the knock-out level - 15% below the initial level - during the life of the notes, the payout at maturity will be par plus the index return.

If the notes are not called and the index remains above the knock-out level, the payout will be par plus the greater of the index return and the contingent minimum return of 6.2%.
