Risk Factors
RISK FACTORS
The risk factors set out below should be read in addition to the risk factors set out on page 4 of the CS
AG Registration Document. Such risk factors are risk factors that are material to the Securities in
order to assess the market risk associated with them or which may affect the Issuer's ability to fulfil its
obligations under them.
Warning: Even though the Securities provide for scheduled redemption in full of the principal
amount of the Securities at maturity (or the early redemption date upon exercise of the
Issuer's option to early redeem), you will still be exposed to the credit risk of the Issuer and
will lose up to the entire value of your investment if the Issuer either fails or is otherwise
unable to meet its payment obligations. The Securities are not deposits and are not protected
under any deposit insurance or protection scheme. You may also lose some or all of your
investment if:
·
you sell your Securities prior to maturity in the secondary market at an amount that is
less than your initial purchase price; or
·
your Securities are redeemed early under their terms and conditions at the discretion
of the Issuer and the Unscheduled Termination Amount paid to you is less than your
initial purchase price; or
·
your Securities are redeemed early under their terms and conditions at the option of
the Issuer and the Optional Redemption Amount paid to you is less than the initial
purchase price.
1.
General considerations

The purchase of Securities involves substantial risks and an investment in the Securities is
only suitable for investors who have the knowledge and experience in financial and business
matters necessary to enable them (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial
adviser) to evaluate the risks and merits of an investment in the Securities and who have
sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Issuer is
acting solely in the capacity of an arm's length contractual counterparty and not as an
investor's financial adviser or fiduciary in any transaction.

Before making any investment decision, prospective investors in the Securities should ensure
that they understand the nature of the Securities and the extent of their exposure to risks
involved.

The Issuer believes that the risk factors described below are material for the purpose of
assessing the market risks associated with the Securities and represent the material risks
inherent in investing in the Securities, but these are not the only risks that the Issuer faces or
that may arise under the Securities. There will be other risks that the Issuer does not currently
consider to be material, or risks that the Issuer is currently not aware of, or risks that arise due
to circumstances specific to the investor, and the Issuer does not represent that the
statements below regarding the risks of holding the Securities are exhaustive of all such risks.

More than one investment risk may have simultaneous effect with regard to the value of the
Securities and the effect of any single investment risk may not be predictable. In addition,
more than one investment risk may have a compounding effect and no assurance can be
given as to the effect that any combination of investment risks may have on the value of
Securities.

The Issuer is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Credit Suisse Group AG ("CSG"). CSG and the
Issuer are both exposed to a variety of risks that could adversely affect their results of
operations or financial condition. Investors should refer to the risk factors on pages 40 to 48 of
the Credit Suisse Annual Report 2015 (as incorporated by reference in the CS AG
Registration Document) for a description of these risks. The Issuer believes that these risks
may affect its ability to fulfil its obligations under the Securities. Most of these risks are
contingencies which may or may not occur and which could have a material adverse effect on
4

Risk Factors
the Issuer's businesses, operations, financial condition or prospects, which, in turn, could
have a material adverse effect on the return investors will receive on the Securities. The
Issuer does not express a view on the likelihood of any such contingency occurring.
2.
Risks relating to the Securities

Loss of investment

Even though the Securities provide for scheduled repayment in full of the principal amount of
the Securities, investors may lose some or all of their investment. Please refer to the section
entitled "Warning" above.

In any event, if the amount payable on redemption of the Securities is less than the price at
which investors paid for their Securities, investors may lose all or part of their investment.

The Securities are not deposits, and are not covered by any deposit insurance or protection
scheme.

Limited liquidity

A secondary market for the Securities may not develop and if one does develop, it may not
provide the holders of the Securities with liquidity or may not continue for the life of the
Securities. A decrease in the liquidity of the Securities may cause, in turn, an increase in the
volatility associated with the price of such Securities. Illiquidity may have a severe adverse
effect on the market value of the Securities.

The Issuer may, but is not obliged to, purchase the Securities at any time at any price in the
open market or by tender or private treaty and may hold, resell or cancel them. The market for
the Securities may be limited. The only way in which a Securityholder can realise value from a
Security prior to its maturity or expiry is to sell it at its then market price in the market which
may be less than the amount initially invested. The price in the market for the Security may be
less than its Issue Price. Further, the price at which a Securityholder sells its Securities in the
market may reflect a commission or a dealer discount, which would further reduce the
proceeds such Securityholder would receive for its Securities.

Any secondary market price quoted by the Issuer may be affected by several factors
including, without limitation, prevailing market conditions, credit spreads and the remaining
time to maturity of the Securities. The Securities are also subject to selling restrictions and/or
transfer restrictions that may limit a Securityholder's ability to resell or transfer its Securities.
Accordingly, the purchase of Securities is suitable only for investors who can bear the risks
associated with a lack of liquidity in the Securities and the financial and other risks associated
with an investment in the Securities. Any investor in the Securities must be prepared to hold
such Securities for an indefinite period of time or until redemption or expiry of the Securities.
Over-issuance of Securities by the Issuer
As part of its issuing, market-making and/or trading arrangements, the Issuer may issue more
Securities than those which are to be subscribed or purchased by investors. The Issuer (or
any of its affiliates) may hold such Securities for the purpose of meeting any investor interest
in the future. Prospective investors in the Securities should therefore not regard the issue size
of any Series of Securities as indicative of the depth or liquidity of the market for such Series
of Securities, or of the demand for such Series of Securities.

The Issue Price may be more than the market value of the Securities

The Issue Price in respect of the Securities may be more than its market value as at the Issue
Date, and more than the price, if any, at which the Dealer or any other person is willing to
purchase such Securities in secondary market transactions. In particular, the Issue Price in
respect of any Securities and the terms of such Securities may take into account, where
permitted by law, fees, commissions or other amounts relating to the issue, distribution and
sale of such Securities, or the provision of introductory services. Such fees, commissions or
other amounts may be paid directly to the relevant distributor or, if the Securities are sold to
5

Risk Factors
the relevant distributor at a discount, may be retained by the relevant distributor out of the
Issue Price paid by investors. In addition, the Issue Price in respect of the Securities and the
terms of such Securities may also take into account (i) the expenses incurred by the Issuer in
creating, documenting and marketing the Securities (including its internal funding costs) and
(ii) amounts relating to the hedging of the Issuer's obligations under such Securities.

The market value of the Securities will be affected by many factors and cannot be
predicted

The market value of the Securities will be affected by many factors beyond the control of the
Issuer, including, but not limited to, the following:
(i)
the creditworthiness of the Issuer (whether actual or perceived), including actual or
anticipated downgrades in its credit rating;
(ii)
the remaining time to maturity of the Securities;
(iii)
interest rates and yield rates in the market; and
(iv)
national and international economic, financial, regulatory, political, military, judicial
and other events that affect the relevant market generally.

Some or all of the above factors will influence the value of and return on the Securities in the
market. Some of these factors are inter-related in a complex way, and as a result, the effect of
any one factor may be offset or magnified by the effect of another factor. If you sell your
Securities prior to maturity or expiry, the price you will receive may be substantially lower than
the original purchase price and you may lose some or all of your investment.

Tax

Potential investors in the Securities should take note of the information set out in the section
headed "Taxation" below. Potential investors in the Securities should conduct such
independent investigation and analysis regarding the tax treatment of the Securities as they
deem appropriate to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities in light of
their individual circumstances. Tax risks include, without limitation, a change in any applicable
law, treaty, rule or regulation or the interpretation thereof by any relevant authority which may
adversely affect payments in respect of the Securities. The level and basis of taxation on the
Securities and on the Securityholders and any reliefs from such taxation depend on the
Securityholder's individual circumstances and could change at any time. The tax and
regulatory characterisation of the Securities may change over the life of the Securities. This
could have adverse consequences for Securityholders. Potential Securityholders will
therefore need to consult their own tax advisers to determine the specific tax consequences
of the purchase, ownership, transfer and redemption, exercise or expiry or enforcement of the
Securities.

Proposed Financial Transaction Tax
On 14 February 2013, the European Commission published a proposal (the "Commission's
Proposal") for a Directive for a common financial transaction tax ("FTT") in Belgium,
Germany, Estonia, Greece, Spain, France, Italy, Austria, Portugal, Slovenia and Slovakia (the
"participating Member States"). However, Estonia has since stated that it will not participate.
The Commission's Proposal has very broad scope and could, if introduced, apply to certain
dealings in the Securities (including secondary market transactions) in certain circumstances.
Primary market transactions referred to in Article 5(c) of Regulation (EC) No 1287/2006 are
expected to be exempt.
Under the Commission's Proposal the FTT could apply in certain circumstances to persons
both within and outside of the participating Member States. Generally, it would apply to certain
dealings in the Securities where at least one party is a financial institution, and at least one
party is established in a participating Member State. A financial institution may be, or be
deemed to be, "established" in a participating Member State in a broad range of
6

Risk Factors
circumstances, including (i) by transacting with a person established in a participating
Member State or (ii) where the financial instrument which is subject to the dealings is issued
in a participating Member State.
However, the FTT proposal remains subject to negotiation between participating Member
States. It may therefore be altered prior to any implementation, the timing of which remains
unclear. Additional EU member states may decide to participate.
Prospective investors in Securities are advised to seek their own professional advice in
relation to the FTT.

The Securities may be redeemed prior to their scheduled maturity

In certain circumstances (for example, (i) if the Issuer determines that its obligations under the
Securities have become unlawful or illegal, (ii) following an event of default, or (iii) if "Interest
and Currency Rate Additional Disruption Event" is specified to be applicable in the Specific
Terms and an Interest and Currency Rate Additional Disruption Event occurs) the Securities
may be redeemed prior to their scheduled maturity. In such circumstances, the Unscheduled
Termination Amount payable under the Securities may be less than the original purchase
price of the Securities and could be as low as zero. Where the Issuer exercises its option to
early redeem the Securities on an optional early redemption date, the Securities will be
redeemed at par on such optional early redemption date.

Following early redemption of Securities, the Holders of such Securities may not be able to
reinvest the redemption proceeds at a comparable return and/or at an effective interest rate
as high as the interest rate or yield on the Securities being redeemed and may only be able to
do so at a significantly lower rate. Prospective investors in Securities should consider such
reinvestment risk in light of other investments available at that time.

Optional redemption by the Issuer

Any call option of the Issuer in respect of the Securities may negatively impact their market
value. During any period when the Issuer may elect to redeem the Securities, the market
value of those Securities generally will not rise substantially above the price at which they can
be redeemed. This may also be true prior to any redemption period. The Issuer may be
expected to redeem Securities when its cost of borrowing is lower than the interest rate on the
Securities. At those times, an investor generally would not be able to reinvest the redemption
proceeds at an effective interest rate as high as the interest rate on the Securities being
redeemed.

Interest rate risks

As the Securities bear interest at a fixed rate, subsequent changes in market interest rates
may adversely affect the value of the Securities.

Risks associated with conflicts of interest between the Issuer and holders of Securities

Calculations and determinations under the Securities

In making calculations and determinations with regard to the Securities, there may be a
difference of interest between the Securityholders and the Issuer. Save where otherwise
provided in the terms and conditions, the Issuer is required to act in good faith and in a
commercially reasonable manner but does not have any obligations of agency or trust for any
investors and has no fiduciary obligations towards them. In particular, the Issuer and its
affiliated entities may have interests in other capacities (such as other business relationships
and activities). Prospective investors should be aware that any determination made by the
Issuer may have a negative impact on the value of and return on the Securities.

Each of the Issuer, the Dealer or any of their respective affiliates may have existing or future
business relationships with each other (including, but not limited to, lending, depository,
derivative counterparty, risk management, advisory and banking relationships), and when
acting in such other capacities the Issuer, the Dealer or any of their respective affiliates may
7

Risk Factors
pursue actions and take steps that it deems necessary or appropriate to protect its interests
arising therefrom without regard to the consequences for any particular Securityholder.

Hedging and dealing activities in relation to the Securities

In the ordinary course of its business the Issuer and/or any of its affiliates may effect
transactions for its own account or for the account of its customers and may enter into one or
more hedging transactions with respect to the Securities or related derivatives. In connection
with such hedging or market-making activities or with respect to proprietary or other trading
activities by the Issuer and/or any of its affiliates, the Issuer and/or any of its affiliates may
enter into transactions which may affect the market price, liquidity, value of and return on the
Securities and which could be adverse to the interest of the relevant Securityholders.
