$7.50% Daily Range Accrual Securities due January 31, 2026<br> Linked to the Performance of SOFR<br>

· The securities will provide Contingent Coupons, if any, that will vary depending
on the performance of the Reference Rate during the term of the securities. Contingent Coupons, if any, will be paid quarterly in arrears
at a rate equal to (i) the Applicable Rate, which is expected to be at least 7.50% per annum (to be determined on the Trade Date), multiplied
by (ii) the quotient of (a) the number of Accrual Days in the applicable Interest Period divided by (b) the number of U.S. Government
Securities Business Days in such Interest Period. Contingent Coupons will be calculated on a 30/360 basis for each Interest Period. Contingent
coupons should not be viewed as ordinary periodic interest payments.

· At maturity, you will receive a cash payment of $1,000 for each $1,000 principal
amount of securities that you hold, plus any accrued but unpaid Contingent Coupon payable on the Maturity Date.

· Senior unsecured obligations of Credit Suisse maturing January 31, 2026. Any
payment on the securities is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.

· Minimum purchase of $1,000. Minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples
of $1,000 in excess thereof.

· The securities are expected to price on or about January 26, 2023 (the "Trade
Date") and the securities are expected to settle on or about January 31, 2023 (the "Settlement Date"). Delivery of the
securities in book-entry form only will be made through The Depository Trust Company.

· The securities will not be listed on any exchange.

**Investing in the securities involves a number of risks. See "Selected Risk Considerations" beginning on page 6 of this pricing supplement and "Risk Factors" beginning on page PS-3 of the accompanying product supplement.**

Key Terms

**Issuer**

Credit Suisse AG ("Credit Suisse"), acting through its London branch

**Reference Rate**

"Reference Rate" means, with respect to any U.S. Government Securities Business Day, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") for such U.S. Government Securities Business Day appearing on the New York Federal Reserve's Website.

**For more information, see "Additional Information about the Reference Rate" in this pricing supplement.**

**Contingent Coupons**

On each Contingent Coupon Payment Date, you will receive a quarterly Contingent Coupon, if any, calculated based on a per annum interest rate equal to:

Applicable Rate × (n / N),

where,

n is the number of Accrual Days during the Interest Period immediately preceding such Contingent Coupon Payment Date; and

N is the total number of U.S. Government Securities Business Days during such Interest Period.

**If, on each U.S. Government Securities Business Day during an Interest Period, the Reference Rate is not within the Accrual Barrier Range, then the Contingent Coupon will be zero, and you will not receive any Contingent Coupon on the corresponding Contingent Coupon Payment Date. If, on any U.S. Government Securities Business Day during an Interest Period, the Reference Rate is not within the Accrual Barrier Range, the Contingent Coupon for that Interest Period, if any, will be calculated based on an annual interest rate less, and possibly significantly less, than the Applicable Rate.**

Contingent Coupons will be calculated on a 30/360 basis for each Interest Period from and including a Contingent Coupon Payment Date (or the Settlement Date in the case of the first Interest Period) to but excluding the following Contingent Coupon Payment Date (or the Maturity Date, in the case of the final Interest Period). If any Contingent Coupon Payment Date is not a business day, the Contingent Coupon will be payable on the first following business day, unless that business day falls in the next calendar month, in which case payment will be made on the first preceding business day. The amount of any Contingent Coupon will not be adjusted with respect to any postponement of a Contingent Coupon Payment Date and no interest or other payment will be payable hereon because of any such adjustment of a Contingent Coupon Payment Date. Contingent Coupons, if any, will be payable on the applicable Contingent Coupon Payment Date to the holder of record at the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the applicable Contingent Coupon Payment Date, provided that the Contingent Coupon payable on the Maturity Date, will be payable to the person to whom the Redemption Amount, is payable.

**Applicable Rate**

Expected to be at least 7.50% per annum (to be determined on the Trade Date).

**Accrual Barrier Range**

Expected to be 2.00% to 7.00% (to be determined on the Trade Date).

Daily Range Accrual Securities 1

**Accrual Day**

A U.S. Government Securities Business Day on which the Reference Rate for such U.S. Government Securities Business Day is within the Accrual Barrier Range.

**Provided, that for purposes of determining an Accrual Day, the Reference Rate for each of the last four U.S. Government Securities Business Days immediately preceding a Contingent Coupon Payment Date will be deemed to be the Reference Rate on the fifth U.S. Government Securities Business Day immediately preceding such Contingent Coupon Payment Date.**

**U.S. Government Securities Business Day**

Any day, except for a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association or any successor organization recommends that the fixed income departments of its members be closed for the entire day for purposes of trading in U.S. government securities.

**Redemption Amount**

At maturity, for each $1,000 principal amount of securities you hold, you will receive a Redemption Amount in cash that will equal $1,000. On the Maturity Date you will also receive the Contingent Coupon, if any, applicable to the final Interest Period. Any payment on the securities is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.

**Interest Periods**

Each Interest Period will be from and including a Contingent Coupon Payment Date to but excluding the next following Contingent Coupon Payment Date, provided that the first Interest Period will be from and including the Settlement Date to but excluding the first Contingent Coupon Payment Date.

**Contingent Coupon Payment Dates**

Quarterly on the last calendar day of each January, April, July and October, beginning on April 30, 2023. If any Contingent Coupon Payment Date is not a business day, the Contingent Coupon will be payable on the first following business day, unless that business day falls in the next calendar month, in which case payment will be made on the first preceding business day. The final Contingent Coupon Payment Date will be the Maturity Date.

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 any 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.

**REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT OF ANY PAYMENT YOU RECEIVE ON THE SECURITIES, YOUR ACTUAL YIELD MAY BE DIFFERENT IN REAL VALUE TERMS**

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. An investment in the securities also 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 result in a return that is lower than the return on alternative investments is appropriate for you.

**THE SECURITIES WILL NOT PAY MORE THAN THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT PLUS CONTINGENT COUPONS, IF ANY**

The securities will not pay more than the principal amount plus Contingent Coupons, if any, regardless of the performance of the Reference Rate. Therefore, the maximum amount payable with respect to the securities (excluding Contingent Coupons, if any) is $1,000 for each $1,000 principal amount of the securities. This payment will not be increased to include reimbursement for any discounts or commissions and hedging and other transaction costs.

**THE SECURITIES DO NOT PROVIDE FOR REGULAR FIXED INTEREST PAYMENTS**

Unlike conventional debt securities, the securities do not provide for regular fixed interest payments. The amount of Contingent Coupons you receive over the term of the securities, if any, will depend on the performance of the Reference Rate during the term of the securities. The annual interest rate for any quarterly Contingent Coupon depends on the number of U.S. Government Securities Business Days during the relevant Interest Period on which the Reference Rate is within the Accrual Barrier Range, but in no event will such annual interest rate be higher than the Applicable Rate. If on any U.S. Government Securities Business Days during an Interest Period the Reference Rate is not within the Accrual Barrier Range, the Contingent Coupon for that Interest Period will be calculated based on an annual interest rate less, and possibly significantly less, than the Applicable Rate. If on each U.S. Government Securities Business Day during an Interest Period the Reference is not within the Accrual Barrier Range, then the Contingent Coupon will be zero, and you will not receive any Contingent Coupons on the corresponding Contingent Coupon Payment Date. There can be no assurance that you will receive a Contingent Coupon on any Contingent Coupon Payment Date or as to the rate per annum on any Contingent Coupons you do receive. The securities are not a suitable investment for investors who require regular fixed income payments, since the amount of Contingent Coupons is variable and may be zero.

In addition, if interest rates generally increase over the term of the securities, it is more likely that the Contingent Coupon, if any, could be less than the yield one might receive based on market rates at that time. This would have the further effect of decreasing the value of your securities both nominally due to below-market coupons and in real value terms due to lower Contingent Coupons. While you will receive your principal amount at maturity, you will not be compensated for the time value of money. These securities are not short-term investments, so you should carefully consider these risks before investing.

**ANY CONTINGENT COUPON PAYMENT FOR ANY INTEREST PERIOD WILL DEPEND ON THE PERFORMANCE OF THE REFERENCE RATE DURING THE INTEREST PERIOD**

Daily Range Accrual Securities 6

The Contingent Coupon for an Interest Period will be reduced for every U.S. Government Securities Business Day on which the Reference Rate is not within the Accrual Barrier Range, and if the Reference Rate is not within the Accrual Barrier Range for the entirety of such Interest Period, you will not receive any Contingent Coupon for that Interest Period. As a result, the return on the securities (the effective yield to maturity) may be less than you could have earned on ordinary interest-bearing debt securities with similar maturities, including other debt securities of ours.

**THE REFERENCE RATE WILL NOT BE OBSERVED ON THE LAST FOUR U.S. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES BUSINESS DAYS IN EACH INTEREST PERIOD, WHICH MAY REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF CONTINGENT COUPONS PAYABLE ON THE SECURITIES**

For purposes of determining an Accrual Day, the Reference Rate for each of the last four U.S. Government Securities Business Days immediately preceding a Contingent Coupon Payment Date will be deemed to be the Reference Rate on the fifth U.S. Government Securities Business Day immediately preceding such Contingent Coupon Payment Date. Therefore, the relative weighting of such fifth U.S. Government Securities Business Day will be magnified for purposes of determining the Contingent Coupon payable. If such fifth U.S. Government Securities Business Day is not an Accrual Day, each of the last four U.S. Government Securities Business Days in the same Interest Period will also not qualify as an Accrual Day, which will reduce the amount of Contingent Coupon payable for such Interest Period.

**THE PROBABILITY THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE ONLY THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF YOUR SECURITIES AT MATURITY WILL DEPEND ON THE VOLATILITY OF THE REFERENCE RATE**

"Volatility" refers to the frequency and magnitude of changes in the level of the Reference Rate. The greater the expected volatility with respect to the Reference Rate on the Trade Date, the higher the expectation as of the Trade Date that the Reference Rate could be outside the Accrual Barrier Range on any U.S. Government Securities Business Day during an Interest Period, indicating a higher expected risk that you will not receive a Contingent Coupon on the related Contingent Coupon Payment Date. This greater expected risk will generally be reflected in a higher Applicable Rate than the yield payable on our conventional debt securities with a similar maturity, or in more favorable terms (such as a wider Accrual Barrier Range) than for similar securities linked to the performance of a Reference Rate with a lower expected volatility as of the Trade Date. You should therefore understand that a relatively higher Applicable Rate may indicate an increased risk that you will not receive a Contingent Coupon on any Contingent Coupon Payment Date. Further, a relatively wider Accrual Barrier Range may not necessarily indicate that you will more likely receive a Contingent Coupon on any Contingent Coupon Payment Date. The volatility of the Reference Rate can change significantly over the term of the securities.

***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.

**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:

Daily Range Accrual Securities 7

&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, 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.

**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.

**IF SOFR IS DISCONTINUED, THE SECURITIES WILL BEAR INTEREST 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 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 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, day count convention, Contingent Coupon Payment Date, Interest Period, the 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.

Daily Range Accrual Securities 10

**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.

Supplemental Use of Proceeds and Hedging

We intend to use the proceeds of this offering for our general corporate purposes, which may include the refinancing of existing debt outside Switzerland. Some or all of the proceeds we receive from the sale of the securities may be used in connection with hedging our obligations under the securities through one or more of our affiliates. For additional information, see "Supplemental Use of Proceeds and Hedging" in the accompanying product supplement.

If the Benchmark Replacement is at any time required to be used pursuant to paragraph (3) above, then in connection with determining the Benchmark Replacement:

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) we or the Benchmark Replacement Agent, as applicable, shall also determine the method for determining the rate described in clause (a) of paragraph (1), (2) or (3) of the definition of "Benchmark Replacement," as applicable (including (i) the page, section or other part of a particular information service on or source from which such rate appears or is obtained (the "Relevant Source"), (ii) the time at which such rate appears on, or is obtained from, the Relevant Source (the "Alternative Relevant Time"), (iii) the day on which such rate will appear on, or is obtained from, the Relevant Source with respect to each U.S. Government Securities Business Day (the "Relevant Date"), and (iv) any alternative method for determining such rate if it is unavailable at the Alternative Relevant Time on the applicable Relevant Date), which method shall be consistent with industry-accepted practices for such 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) from (and including) the Affected Day, references to the Relevant Time shall be deemed to be references to the Alternative Relevant Time;

Daily Range Accrual Securities 13

Benchmark Replacement Agent, as the case may be, decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if we or the Benchmark Replacement Agent, as the case may be, determines that no market practice for use of the Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner as we or the Benchmark Replacement Agent, as the case may be, determines is reasonably necessary), such definitions or other provisions will be amended to reflect such changes, which amendments shall become effective without consent or approval of the holders of the securities or any other party; 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) we will give notice or will procure that notice is given as soon as practicable to the calculation agent, trustee and the holders of the securities, specifying the Benchmark Replacement, as well as the details described in paragraph (a) above and the amendments implemented as contemplated in paragraph (c) above.

"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:

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the sum of: (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor, as applicable, and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; or

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the sum of: (a) the ISDA Fallback Rate and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; or

"Benchmark Replacement Adjustment" means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, the first alternative set forth in the order 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:

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, which may be a positive or negative value or zero, that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement;

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) if the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is equivalent to the ISDA Fallback Rate, the ISDA Fallback Adjustment;

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the spread adjustment, which may be a positive or negative value or zero, that has been selected by us or the Benchmark Replacement Agent, if any, to be applied to the applicable Unadjusted 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 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.

"Benchmark Replacement Agent" means any affiliate of us or such other person that has been appointed by us to make the calculations and determinations to be made by the Benchmark Replacement Agent, so long as such affiliate or other person is a leading bank or other financial institution that is experienced in such

For the avoidance of doubt, if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Relevant Time with respect to any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Relevant Time for such determination.

"Benchmark Transition Event" means, with respect to the then-current Benchmark, the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect thereto:

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of the Benchmark announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide the Benchmark, permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Benchmark;

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Benchmark announcing that the Benchmark is no longer representative.

If we appoint a Benchmark Replacement Agent and such Benchmark Replacement Agent is unable to determine whether a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred or, following the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, has not selected the Benchmark Replacement as of the related Benchmark Replacement Date, then, in such case, we shall make such determination or select the Benchmark Replacement, as the case may be.

If we or the Benchmark Replacement Agent, if any, have determined that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the then-current Benchmark, any determination, decision or election that may be made by us or the Benchmark Replacement Agent pursuant to this section, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event (including such determination that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement have occurred with respect to the then-current Benchmark), circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection:

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· will be conclusive and binding absent willful misconduct, bad faith and manifest

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 debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Based on market conditions as of the Trade Date, the securities will be treated either as "variable rate debt instruments" or "contingent payment debt instruments" for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Final Pricing Supplement will give further information as to which treatment applies to the securities.

If the securities are treated as variable rate debt instruments, stated interest on the securities will be taxable to a U.S. Holder (as defined in the accompanying product supplement) as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with the holder's method of tax accounting. 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 interest, which will be treated as a payment of interest) and the holder's adjusted tax basis in the security. A U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in a security will generally equal the purchase price paid to acquire the security. Such gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder held the security for more than one year at the time of disposition. See "United States Federal Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Securities Treated as Variable Rate Debt Instruments" in the accompanying product supplement.

If the securities are treated as contingent payment debt instruments, (i) a U.S. Holder will be required to recognize interest income based on our "comparable yield" for a similar non-contingent debt instrument and a "projected payment schedule" in respect of the securities, adjusted each year to take account for the difference between the actual and the projected payments in that year, and (ii) gain with respect to a security will be treated as ordinary income. See "United States Federal Tax Considerations―Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Securities Treated as Contingent Payment Debt Instruments" in the accompanying product supplement.

**Non-U.S. Holders**

Subject to the discussions in the next paragraph and in "United States Federal Tax Considerations" in the accompanying product supplement, if you are a Non-U.S. Holder (as defined in the accompanying product supplement) of the securities, you generally will not be subject to U.S. federal withholding or income tax in respect of any amount paid to you with respect to the securities, provided that (i) income in respect of the securities is not effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States, and (ii) you comply with the applicable certification requirements. See "United States Federal Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders" in the accompanying product supplement for a more detailed discussion of the rules applicable to Non-U.S. Holders of the securities.

Section 871(m) of the Internal Revenue Code and Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder ("Section 871(m)") generally impose a 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) withholding tax on dividend equivalents paid or deemed paid to Non-U.S. Holders with respect to certain financial instruments linked to U.S. equities or indices that include U.S. equities. Because the securities do not reference U.S. equities, in the opinion of our counsel the securities should not be subject to withholding tax under Section 871(m).

We will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to U.S. federal withholding taxes.

**You should read the section entitled "United States Federal Tax Considerations" in the accompanying product supplement.** 

**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 (Conflicts of Interest)

Under the terms and subject to the conditions contained in a distribution agreement dated May 7, 2007, as amended, which we refer to as the distribution agreement, we have agreed to sell the securities to CSSU. We may also agree to sell the securities to other agents that are parties to the distribution agreement. We refer to CSSU and other such agents as the "Agents."

The distribution agreement provides that the Agents are obligated to purchase all of the securities if any are purchased.

The Agents may offer the securities at the offering price set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement and may receive varying discounts and commissions of up to $30 per $1,000 principal amount of securities. The Agents may re-allow some or all of the discount on the principal amount per security on sales of such securities by other brokers or dealers. CSSU or another broker or dealer will forgo some or all discounts and commissions with respect to the sales of securities into certain fiduciary accounts. If all of the securities are not sold at the initial offering price, the Agents may change the public offering price and other selling terms.

An affiliate of Credit Suisse has paid or may pay in the future a fixed amount to broker-dealers in connection with the costs of implementing systems to support these securities.

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.

CSSU is our affiliate. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5121, CSSU may not make sales in this offering to any of its discretionary accounts without the prior written approval of the customer. A portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the securities will be used by CSSU or one of its affiliates in connection with hedging our obligations under the securities.

For further information, please refer to "Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)" in any accompanying product supplement.
