Philadelphia, Feb. 26 - Credit Suisse AG, Nassau Branch priced $1.13 million of high/low coupon callable yield notes due Feb. 29, 2012 linked to the SPDR S&P Metals and Mining exchange-traded fund and the Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
A knock-in event occurs if either ETF falls to or below 70% of its initial share price during the life of the notes.
If a knock-in event never occurs, the coupon will be 13.5%. If a knock-in event occurs during any quarterly observation period, the coupon for the corresponding quarterly interest period and each subsequent quarterly interest period will be 4%. Interest is payable quarterly.
The notes are callable at par on any interest payment date.
The payout at maturity will be par unless either ETF falls to or below its knock-in level during the life of the notes, in which case investors will receive par plus the return of the worst-performing component, up to a maximum payout of par.
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
