(1) Because dealers who purchase the securities for sale to certain fiduciary accounts may forgo some or all selling concessions, fees or commissions, the public offering price for investors purchasing the securities in such fee-based advisory accounts may be as low as $970 per $1,000 principal amount of securities. Investors that hold their securities in fee-based advisory or trust accounts may be charged fees by the investment advisor or manager of such account based on the amount of assets held in those accounts, including the securities.

(2) Barclays Capital Inc., which we refer to as Barclays, will act as placement agent for the securities. The placement agent will receive a fee from Credit Suisse or one of our affiliates of up to $30 per $1,000 principal amount of securities. Barclays may use this fee to pay variable selling concessions or fees to other dealers. For more detailed information, please see "Supplemental Plan of Distribution" in this pricing supplement.

Selected Risk Considerations

An investment in the securities involves significant risks. This section describes material risks relating to an investment in the securities. These risks are explained in more detail in the "Risk Factors" section of the accompanying product supplement.

***Risks Relating to the Securities Generally***

**THE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO THE CREDIT RISK OF CREDIT SUISSE**

Investors are dependent on our ability to pay all amounts due on the securities and, therefore, if we were to default on our obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the securities. In addition, any decline in our credit ratings, any adverse changes in the market's view of our creditworthiness or any increase in our credit spreads is likely to adversely affect the value of the securities prior to maturity.

**DURING THE FLOATING RATE PERIOD, THE SECURITIES DO NOT PROVIDE FOR REGULAR FIXED INTEREST PAYMENTS**

Unlike conventional debt securities, the securities do not provide for regular fixed interest payments for the entire term of the securities. The amount of interest payments you receive, if any, during the Floating Rate Period will depend on the Reference Rate and may be as low as the Minimum Interest Rate of 0.00%. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that you will receive an interest payment on any Interest Payment Date during the Floating Rate Period. Thus, the securities are not a suitable investment for investors who require regular fixed income payments, since the interest payments during the Floating Rate Period are variable and may be zero. Any payment on the securities is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.

Furthermore, regardless of the amount of any payment you receive on the securities you may nevertheless suffer a loss on your investment in the securities, in real value terms. This is because inflation may cause the real value of any payment you receive on the securities to be less at maturity than it is at the time you invest, and because an investment in the securities represents a forgone opportunity to invest in an alternative asset that generates a higher real return. You should carefully consider whether an investment that may provide a return that is lower than the return on alternative investments is appropriate for you.

***Risks Relating to the Reference Rate***

**THE SECURITIES WILL HAVE AN INTEREST RATE DETERMINED BY REFERENCE TO THE SECURED OVERNIGHT FINANCING RATE, A RELATIVELY NEW MARKET INDEX WITH LIMITED HISTORY, AND FUTURE PERFORMANCE CANNOT BE PREDICTED BASED ON HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE** 

The interest rate for the securities will be determined by reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). The publication of SOFR began in April 2018, and, therefore, it has a limited history. The future performance of SOFR cannot be predicted based on the limited historical performance. The level of SOFR during the term of the securities may bear little or no relation to the historical actual or historical indicative data. Prior observed patterns, if any, in the behavior of market variables and their relation to SOFR, such as correlations, may change in the future. While some pre-publication historical SOFR data has been released by The Federal Reserve Bank of New York ("FRBNY"), production of such historical indicative SOFR data inherently involves assumptions, estimates and approximations.

No future performance of SOFR may be inferred from any of the historical actual or historical indicative SOFR data. Hypothetical or historical performance data are not indicative of, and have no bearing on, the potential performance of SOFR. Changes in the levels of SOFR will affect the return on the securities and the trading price of the securities, but it is impossible to predict whether such levels will rise or fall. There can be no assurance that SOFR will be positive.

Fixed to Floating Rate Securities 5

**SOFR MAY BE VOLATILE AND MAY BE MORE VOLATILE THAN OTHER BENCHMARK OR MARKET INTEREST RATES** 

SOFR is subject to volatility due to a variety of factors affecting interest rates generally, including, but not limited to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· sentiment regarding underlying strength in the U.S.
and global economies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· expectations regarding the level of price inflation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· sentiment regarding credit quality in U.S. and global
credit markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· central bank policy regarding interest rates;
and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· performance of capital markets.

Since the initial publication of SOFR, daily changes in the rate have, on occasion, been more volatile than daily changes in other benchmark or market rates, such as USD LIBOR, during corresponding periods. In addition, although changes in Compounded Daily SOFR generally are not expected to be as volatile as changes in SOFR, the return on, value of and market for the securities may fluctuate more than floating rate debt securities with interest rates based on less volatile rates.

**ANY FAILURE OF SOFR TO MAINTAIN MARKET ACCEPTANCE COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE SECURITIES** 

SOFR may fail to maintain market acceptance. SOFR was developed for use in certain U.S. dollar derivatives and other financial contracts as an alternative to the U.S. dollar London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") in part because it is considered a good representation of general funding conditions in the overnight U.S. Treasury repurchase agreement market. However, as a rate based on transactions secured by U.S. Treasury securities, it does not measure bank-specific credit risk and, as a result, is less likely to correlate with the unsecured short-term funding costs of banks than competing replacement rates for LIBOR that reflect bank-specific credit risk. This may mean that market participants would not consider SOFR a suitable substitute, replacement or successor for all of the purposes for which LIBOR historically has been used (including, without limitation, as a representation of the unsecured short-term funding costs of banks), which may, in turn, lessen market acceptance of SOFR. Further, other index providers are developing products that are perceived as competing with SOFR. It is possible that market participants will prefer one of these competing products and that such competing products may become more widely accepted in the marketplace than SOFR. To the extent market acceptance for SOFR as a benchmark for floating-rate securities declines, the return on and value of the securities and the price at which investors can sell the securities in the secondary market could be adversely affected. Investors in securities linked to SOFR may not be able to sell those securities at all or may not be able to sell those securities at prices that will provide them with a yield comparable to similar investments that continue to have a developed secondary market, and may consequently suffer from increased pricing volatility and market risk.

**THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT SOFR WILL BE A COMPARABLE SUBSTITUTE, SUCCESSOR OR REPLACEMENT FOR LIBOR** 

In June 2017, FRBNY's Alternative Reference Rates Committee (the "ARRC") announced the Secured Overnight Financing Rate as its recommended alternative to U.S. Dollar LIBOR. However, the composition and characteristics of SOFR are not the same as those of LIBOR. SOFR is a broad Treasury repo financing rate that represents overnight secured funding transactions and is not the economic equivalent of LIBOR. While SOFR is a secured rate, LIBOR is an unsecured rate, and while SOFR is an overnight rate, LIBOR represents interbank funding for a specified term. As a result, there can be no assurance that SOFR will perform in the same way as LIBOR would have at any time, including, without limitation, as a result of changes in interest and yield rates in the market, bank credit risk, market volatility or global or regional economic, financial, political, regulatory, judicial or other events. For the same reasons, there is no guarantee that SOFR will be a comparable substitute, successor or replacement for LIBOR.

**SOFR AND THE MANNER IN WHICH IT IS CALCULATED MAY CHANGE IN THE FUTURE** 

Interest rates and indices that are deemed to be "benchmarks," including those in widespread and long-standing use, have been the subject of recent international, national and other regulatory scrutiny and initiatives and proposals for reform. Some of these reforms are already effective while others are still to be implemented or are under consideration. There can be no assurance that the method by which SOFR is calculated will continue in its current form. Any changes in the method of calculation could have a negative impact on any payment on the securities and on the value of the securities in the secondary market.

Fixed to Floating Rate Securities 6

**THE ADMINISTRATOR OF SOFR MAY MAKE CHANGES THAT COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE LEVEL OF SOFR OR DISCONTINUE SOFR AND HAS NO OBLIGATION TO CONSIDER YOUR INTEREST IN DOING SO** 

SOFR is published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, as the administrator of SOFR, based on data received from other sources. As such, we have no control over its determination, calculation or publication. FRBNY (or a successor), as administrator of SOFR, may make methodological or other changes that could change the value of SOFR, including changes related to the method by which SOFR is calculated, eligibility criteria applicable to the transactions used to calculate SOFR, or timing related to the publication of SOFR. In addition, the administrator may alter, discontinue or suspend calculation or dissemination of SOFR (in which case a fallback method of determining the interest rate on the securities will apply). The administrator has no obligation to consider your interests in calculating, adjusting, converting, revising or discontinuing SOFR. These changes may result in a reduction of the amount of interest payable on the securities, which may adversely affect the trading prices of the securities.

**THE AMOUNT OF INTEREST PAYABLE WITH RESPECT TO EACH INTEREST PERIOD DURING THE FLOATING RATE PERIOD WILL BE DETERMINED NEAR THE END OF THE RELEVANT INTEREST PERIOD** 

The interest rate with respect to any Interest Period during the Floating Rate Period will only be capable of being determined near the end of the relevant Interest Period. Consequently, it is not possible for investors in the securities to estimate in advance the amount of interest that will be payable on the securities for a given Interest Period during the Floating Rate Period.

**IF SOFR IS DISCONTINUED, THE SECURITIES WILL BEAR INTEREST DURING THE FLOATING RATE PERIOD BY REFERENCE TO A DIFFERENT BASE RATE, WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF AND YOUR RETURN ON THE SECURITIES; THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT ANY BENCHMARK REPLACEMENT WILL BE A COMPARABLE SUBSTITUTE** 

If we or the Benchmark Replacement Agent determine that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to SOFR, then the interest rate on the securities during the Floating Rate Period will be determined by reference to a different rate, which will be a different benchmark than SOFR (a "Benchmark Replacement"), plus a spread adjustment (the "Benchmark Replacement Adjustment"), as further described under "Additional Information about the SOFR Reference Rate" in this pricing supplement.

If a particular Benchmark Replacement or Benchmark Replacement Adjustment cannot be determined, then the next-available Benchmark Replacement or Benchmark Replacement Adjustment will apply. These replacement rates and adjustments may be selected, recommended or formulated by (i) the Relevant Governmental Body (such as the ARRC), (ii) the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. or (iii) in certain circumstances, us or the Benchmark Replacement Agent (if any). In addition, if we or the Benchmark Replacement Agent (if any) determine that (A) changes to the definitions of Business Day, Compounded Daily SOFR, Day Count Convention, Interest Determination Date, Interest Payment Date, Interest Period, Observation Period, the SOFR Reference Rate or U.S. Government Securities Business Day or (B) any other technical changes to any other provision of the terms of the securities necessary in order to implement the Benchmark Replacement, the terms of the securities expressly authorize us to amend such definitions and other provisions without the consent or approval of the holders of the securities. The determination of a Benchmark Replacement, the calculation of the interest rate on the securities by reference to a Benchmark Replacement (including the application of a Benchmark Replacement Adjustment), any amendments to the provisions of the terms of the securities determined by us or the Benchmark Replacement Agent, as the case may be, to be necessary in order to implement the Benchmark Replacement and any other determinations, decisions or elections that may be made under the terms of the securities in connection with a Benchmark Transition Event could adversely affect the value of the securities, the return on the securities and the price at which you can sell your securities, if any.

Any determination, decision or election described above will be made in the sole discretion of us or the Benchmark Replacement Agent (if any). Any exercise of such discretion by us may present us with a conflict of interest. In addition, if an affiliate of us is appointed as the Benchmark Replacement Agent, any exercise of such discretion may present us or such affiliate with a conflict of interest.

In addition, (i) the composition and characteristics of the Benchmark Replacement will not be the same as those of SOFR, the Benchmark Replacement will not be the economic equivalent of SOFR, there can be no

assurance that the Benchmark Replacement will perform in the same way as SOFR would have at any time and there is no guarantee that the Benchmark Replacement will be a comparable substitute for SOFR (each of which means that a Benchmark Transition Event could adversely affect the value of the securities, the return on the securities and the price at which you can sell your securities, if any), (ii) any failure of the Benchmark Replacement to gain market acceptance could adversely affect the securities, (iii) the Benchmark Replacement may have a very limited history and the future performance of the Benchmark Replacement cannot be predicted based on historical performance, (iv) the secondary trading market for securities linked to the Benchmark Replacement may be limited and (v) the administrator of the Benchmark Replacement may make changes that could change the value of the Benchmark Replacement or discontinue the Benchmark Replacement and has no obligation to consider the interests of holders of the securities in doing so.

***Risks Relating to the Issuer***

**CREDIT SUISSE IS SUBJECT TO SWISS REGULATION**

As a Swiss bank, Credit Suisse is subject to regulation by governmental agencies, supervisory authorities and self-regulatory organizations in Switzerland. Such regulation is increasingly more extensive and complex and subjects Credit Suisse to risks. For example, pursuant to Swiss banking laws, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) may open resolution proceedings if there are justified concerns that Credit Suisse is over-indebted, has serious liquidity problems or no longer fulfills capital adequacy requirements. FINMA has broad powers and discretion in the case of resolution proceedings, which include the power to convert debt instruments and other liabilities of Credit Suisse into equity and/or cancel such liabilities in whole or in part. If one or more of these measures were imposed, such measures may adversely affect the terms and market value of the securities and/or the ability of Credit Suisse to make payments thereunder and you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the securities.

***Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest***

**POTENTIAL CONFLICTS**

We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the securities, including acting as calculation agent and as agent of the issuer for the offering of the securities, hedging our obligations under the securities. In performing these duties, the economic interests of us and our affiliates are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the securities. Further, hedging activities may adversely affect any payment on or the value of the securities. Any profit in connection with such hedging activities will be in addition to any other compensation that we and our affiliates receive for the sale of the securities, which creates an additional incentive to sell the securities to you.

***Risks Relating to the Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Securities***

**UNPREDICTABLE ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS WILL AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES**

The terms of the securities at issuance and the value of the securities prior to maturity may be influenced by factors that impact the value of fixed income securities and options in general, such as:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the expected and actual volatility of the Reference Rate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the time to maturity of the securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· changes in U.S. interest and swap rates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· supply and demand for the securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· interest and yield rates in the market generally;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· investors' expectations with respect to the rate of inflation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory, judicial
or other events that affect the interest and yield rates or markets generally; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· our creditworthiness, including actual or anticipated downgrades in our credit
ratings.

Some or all of these factors may influence the price that you will receive if you choose to sell your securities prior to maturity. The impact of any of the factors set forth above may enhance or offset some or all of any change resulting from another factor or factors.

**CERTAIN BUILT-IN COSTS ARE LIKELY TO ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES PRIOR TO MATURITY**

While the Payment at Maturity described in this pricing supplement will be based on the full principal amount of your securities, the Price to Public of the securities includes the placement agent's commission and the cost of hedging our obligations under the securities through one or more of our affiliates. As a result, the price, if any, at which Credit Suisse (or its affiliates), will be willing to purchase securities from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, will likely be lower than the Price to Public, and any sale prior to the Maturity Date could result in a substantial loss to you. The securities are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your securities to maturity.

**LACK OF LIQUIDITY**

The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Credit Suisse (or its affiliates) intends to offer to purchase the securities in the secondary market but is not required to do so. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the securities when you wish to do so. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the securities, the price at which you may be able to trade your securities is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which Credit Suisse (or its affiliates) is willing to buy the securities. If you have to sell your securities prior to maturity, you may not be able to do so or you may have to sell them at a substantial loss.

"Benchmark" means the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate or such other then-current Benchmark, then "Benchmark" means the applicable Benchmark Replacement.

"Benchmark Replacement" means, with respect to the then-current Benchmark, the first alternative set forth in the order presented below that can be determined by us or the Benchmark Replacement Agent, if any, as of the Benchmark Replacement Date with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

Replacement in order to reduce or eliminate, to the extent reasonably practicable under the circumstances, any economic prejudice or
benefit (as applicable) to holders of the securities as a result of the replacement of the then-current Benchmark with such Unadjusted
Benchmark Replacement for purposes of determining the SOFR Reference Rate, which spread adjustment shall be consistent with any industry-accepted
spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, applied to such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement
where it has replaced the then-current Benchmark for U.S. Dollar-denominated floating rate notes at such time.

The Secured Overnight Financing Rate on January 24, 2023 was 4.30%. The historical levels of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate should not be taken as an indication of its future performance. We obtained the information in the graph below from Bloomberg, without independent verification.

You should not take the historical levels of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate as an indication of future performance of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate or the securities. Any historical trend in the Secured Overnight Financing Rate during any period set forth below is not an indication that the Secured Overnight Financing Rate is more or less likely to increase or decrease at any time over the term of the securities. **You should note that publication of SOFR began on April 3, 2018, and therefore SOFR has limited history.**

United States Federal Tax Considerations

This discussion supplements and, to the extent inconsistent therewith, supersedes the discussion in the accompanying product supplement under "United States Federal Tax Considerations."

In the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, the securities should be treated as "variable rate debt instruments," and the remaining discussion is based on this treatment. Based on market conditions as of the Settlement Date, we will determine whether the securities are treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes (1) as providing for a single qualified floating rate ("QFR") or (2) as providing for a single fixed rate followed by a QFR.

If the initial fixed rate on the securities is within 25 basis points of the floating rate on the Settlement Date, the securities will be treated as providing for a single floating rate. Under this treatment, all stated interest on the securities will generally be treated as qualified stated interest ("QSI") and be taxable to a U.S. Holder (as defined in the accompanying product supplement) at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with the U.S. Holder's method of tax accounting.

However, if the initial fixed rate on the securities is not within 25 basis points of the floating rate as of the Settlement Date, the securities will be treated as providing for a single fixed rate followed by a QFR. In that case, under Treasury regulations applicable to variable rate debt instruments, the securities may be treated as issued with original issue discount ("OID"). In order to determine the amount of QSI and OID in respect of the securities, an equivalent fixed rate debt instrument must be constructed. The equivalent fixed rate debt instrument is constructed in the following manner: (i) first, the initial fixed rate is converted to a QFR that would preserve the fair market value of the securities, and (ii) second, each QFR (including the QFR determined under (i) above) is converted to a fixed rate substitute (which will generally be the value of that QFR as of the Settlement Date of the securities). The rules described under "United States Federal Tax Considerations — Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders — General — Original Issue Discount" in the accompanying product supplement are then applied to the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument for purposes of calculating the amount of OID on the securities. Under these rules, the securities will generally be treated as providing for QSI at a rate equal to the lowest rate of interest in effect at any time under the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument, and any interest in excess of that rate will generally be treated as part of the stated redemption price at maturity and, therefore, as giving rise to OID.

QSI on the securities will generally be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with the U.S. Holder's method of tax accounting. If the securities are issued with OID, a U.S. Holder will be required to include the OID in income for federal income tax purposes as it accrues, in accordance with a constant-yield method based on a compounding of interest. If the securities are not issued with OID, all stated interest on the securities will be treated as QSI and will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with the U.S. Holder's method of tax accounting. If the amount of interest a U.S. Holder receives on the securities in a calendar year is greater than the interest assumed to be paid or accrued under the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument, the excess is treated as additional QSI taxable to the U.S. Holder as ordinary income. Otherwise, any difference will reduce the amount of QSI the U.S. Holder is treated as receiving and will therefore reduce the amount of ordinary income the U.S. Holder is required to take into income.

Upon the sale or other taxable disposition of a security, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the disposition (other than any amount attributable to accrued QSI, which will be treated as a payment of interest) and the U.S. Holder's tax basis in the security. A U.S. Holder's tax basis in a security generally will equal the cost of the security to the U.S. Holder, increased by the amounts of OID (if any) previously included in income by the U.S. Holder with respect to the security and reduced by any payments other than QSI received by the U.S. Holder. Such gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held the security for more than one year at the time of disposition.

Under current law, Non-U.S. Holders (as defined in the accompanying product supplement) generally will not be subject to U.S. federal withholding or income tax with respect to interest (or OID, if any) paid on and amounts received on the sale, exchange or retirement of the securities if they comply with applicable

Fixed to Floating Rate Securities 16

certification requirements. Special rules apply to Non-U.S. Holders whose income on the securities is effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business or who are individuals present in the United States for 183 days or more in a taxable year.

**You should read the section entitled "United States Federal Tax Considerations" in the accompanying product supplement. The preceding discussion, when read in combination with that section, constitutes the full opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP regarding the material U.S. federal tax consequences of owning and disposing of the securities.** 

**You should also consult your tax advisor regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of an investment in the securities and any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.**

Supplemental Plan of Distribution

Under the terms of a distributor accession confirmation with Barclays Capital Inc., dated as of March 23, 2012, Barclays Capital Inc. will act as placement agent for the securities. The placement agent will receive a fee from Credit Suisse or one of our affiliates of up to $30 per $1,000 principal amount of the securities as set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement. For additional information, see "Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)" in the accompanying product supplement.

We expect to deliver the securities against payment for the securities on the Settlement Date indicated herein, which may be a date that is greater than two business days following the Trade Date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, if the Settlement Date is more than two business days after the Trade Date, purchasers who wish to transact in the securities more than two business days prior to the Settlement Date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
