or contemporaneous oral statements as well as any other written materials including preliminary or indicative pricing terms, fact
sheets, correspondence, trade ideas, structures for implementation, sample structures, brochures or other educational materials of

amend the securities to conform to its terms as set forth in this pricing supplement and the documents listed above, and the trustee is
authorized to enter into any such amendment without any such consent. You should carefully consider, among other things, the
matters set forth in "Selected Risk Considerations" in this pricing supplement and "Risk Factors" in the accompanying product
supplement, as the securities involve risks not associated with conventional debt securities. You should consult your investment, legal,
tax, accounting and other advisors before deciding to invest in the securities.

Se le c t e d Risk Conside ra t ions

An investment in the securities involves significant risks. These risks are explained in more detail in the "Risk Factors" section of the
accompanying product supplement.


·
T H E SECU RI T I ES ARE SU BJ ECT T O A POT EN T I AL EARLY REDEM PT I ON , WH I CH WOU LD LI M I T
Y OU R ABI LI T Y T O ACCRU E I N T EREST OV ER T H E FU LL T ERM OF T H E SECU RI T I ES --The securities are
subject to a potential early redemption. Prior to maturity, the securities may be redeemed on any Interest Payment Date
scheduled to occur on or after July 30, 2015, upon at least five business days' notice to the trustee. If the securities are
redeemed prior to the Maturity Date, you will be entitled to receive the principal amount of your securities and any
accrued and unpaid interest payable on that Interest Payment Date. In this case, you will lose the opportunity to continue
to accrue and be paid interest from the date of Early Redemption to the scheduled Maturity Date. If the securities are
redeemed prior to the Maturity Date, you may be unable to invest in other securities with a similar level of risk that yield
as much interest as the securities.


·
T H E PER AN N U M I N T EREST RAT E APPLI CABLE AT A PART I CU LAR T I M E WI LL AFFECT OU R
DECI SI ON T O REDEEM T H E SECU RI T I ES -- It is more likely that we will redeem the securities prior to their
Maturity Date during periods when the remaining interest is to accrue on the securities at a rate that is greater than that
which we would pay on a conventional fixed-rate, non-callable debt security of comparable maturity. If we redeem the
securities prior to maturity, you may not be able to invest in other securities with a similar level of risk that yield as much
interest as the securities.


·
ST EP-U P RAT E SECU RI T I ES PRESEN T DI FFEREN T I N V EST M EN T CON SI DERAT I ON S T H AN FI X ED -
RAT E SECU RI T I ES -- Unless general interest rates rise significantly, you should not expect to earn the higher stated
interest rates, which are applicable only after the first three years of the term of the securities, because the securities are
likely to be redeemed prior to maturity if interest rates remain the same or fall during the term of the securities. In
connection with your investment in the securities, you should consider, among other things, the overall annual percentage
rate of interest to maturity or the various potential dates on which we may redeem the securities as compared to other
equivalent investment alternatives rather than the higher stated interest rate or any potential interest payments you may
receive after the first three years following issuance of the securities. If interest rates increase beyond the rates provided
by the securities during the term of the securities, we will likely not redeem the securities, and investors will be holding
securities that bear interest at below-market rates.


·
T H E SECU RI T I ES ARE SU BJ ECT T O T H E CREDI T RI SK OF CREDI T SU I SSE -- Although the return on the
securities will be based on the Interest Rate, the payment of any amount due on the securities, including any applicable
interest payments, early redemption payment and the redemption amount, is subject to the credit risk of Credit Suisse.
Investors are dependent on our ability to pay all amounts due on the securities and, therefore, investors are subject to our
credit risk. 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.


·
T H E EST I M AT ED V ALU E OF T H E SECU RI T I ES ON T H E T RADE DAT E M AY BE LESS T H AN T H E PRI CE
T O PU BLI C -- The initial estimated value of your securities on the Trade Date (as determined by reference to our
pricing models and our internal funding rate) may be significantly less than the original Price to Public. The Price to Public
of the securities includes the agent's discounts or commissions as well as transaction costs such as expenses incurred to
create, document and market the securities and the cost of hedging our risks as issuer of the securities through one or
more of our affiliates (which includes a projected profit). These costs will be effectively borne by you as an investor in the
securities. These amounts will be retained by Credit Suisse or our affiliates in connection with our structuring and offering
of the securities (except to the extent discounts or commissions are reallowed to other broker-dealers or any costs are
paid to third parties).


On the Trade Date, we value the components of the securities in accordance with our pricing models. These include a
fixed income component valued using our internal funding rate, and individual option components valued using mid-
market pricing. Our option valuation models are proprietary. They take


2

into account factors such as interest rates, volatility and time to maturity of the securities, and they rely in part on certain
assumptions about future events, which may prove to be incorrect.

http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1053092/000095010315000638/dp52936_424b2-ir34.htm[1/29/2015 10:24:24 AM]



Because Credit Suisse's pricing models may differ from other issuers' valuation models, and because funding rates taken
into account by other issuers may vary materially from the rates used by Credit Suisse (even among issuers with similar
creditworthiness), our estimated value at any time may not be comparable to estimated values of similar securities of other
issuers.


·
EFFECT OF I N T EREST RAT E U SED I N ST RU CT U RI N G T H E SECU RI T I ES -- The internal funding rate we use
in structuring notes such as these securities is typically lower than the interest rate that is reflected in the yield on our
conventional debt securities of similar maturity in the secondary market (our "secondary market credit spreads"). If on the
Trade Date our internal funding rate is lower than our secondary market credit spreads, we expect that the economic
terms of the securities will generally be less favorable to you than they would have been if our secondary market credit
spread had been used in structuring the securities. We will also use our internal funding rate to determine the price of the
securities if we post a bid to repurchase your securities in secondary market transactions. See "--Secondary Market
Prices" below.


·
SECON DARY M ARK ET PRI CES -- If Credit Suisse (or an affiliate) bids for your securities in secondary market
transactions, which we are not obligated to do, the secondary market price (and the value used for account statements or
otherwise) may be higher or lower than the Price to Public and the estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date.
The estimated value of the securities on the cover of this pricing supplement does not represent a minimum price at
which we would be willing to buy the securities in the secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The secondary market
price of your securities at any time cannot be predicted and will reflect the then-current estimated value determined by
reference to our pricing models and other factors. These other factors include our internal funding rate, customary bid and
ask spreads and other transaction costs, changes in market conditions and any deterioration or improvement in our
creditworthiness. In circumstances where our internal funding rate is lower than our secondary market credit spreads, our
secondary market bid for your securities could be more favorable than what other dealers might bid because, assuming
all else equal, we use the lower internal funding rate to price the securities and other dealers might use the higher
secondary market credit spread to price them. Furthermore, assuming no change in market conditions from the Trade
Date, the secondary market price of your securities will be lower than the Price to Public because it will not include the
agent's discounts or commissions and hedging and other transaction costs. If you sell your securities to a dealer in a
secondary market transaction, the dealer may impose an additional discount or commission, and as a result the price you
receive on your securities may be lower than the price at which we may repurchase the securities from such dealer.


We (or an affiliate) may initially post a bid to repurchase the securities from you at a price that will exceed the then-
current estimated value of the securities. That higher price reflects our projected profit and costs that were included in the
Price to Public, and that higher price may also be initially used for account statements or otherwise. We (or our affiliate)
may offer to pay this higher price, for your benefit, but the amount of any excess over the then-current estimated value
will be temporary and is expected to decline over a period of approximately 90 days.


The securities are not designed to be short-term trading instruments and any sale prior to maturity could result in a
substantial loss to you. You should be willing and able to hold your securities to maturity.


·
LACK OF LI QU I DI T Y -- 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.


3


·
POT EN T I AL CON FLI CT S -- 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 and determining their estimated value. 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.


·
M AN Y ECON OM I C AN D M ARK ET FACT ORS WI LL AFFECT T H E V ALU E OF T H E SECU RI T I ES -- The
value of the securities will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each
other, including:
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1053092/000095010315000638/dp52936_424b2-ir34.htm[1/29/2015 10:24:24 AM]




o
the time to maturity of the securities;


o
the Early Redemption feature, which is likely to limit the value of the securities;


o
changes in U.S. interest and swap rates;


o
interest and yield rates in the market generally;


o
investors' expectations with respect to the rate of inflation;


o
geopolitical conditions and a variety of economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the
interest and yield rates or markets generally; and


o
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.

Supple m e nt a l U se of Proc e e ds a nd H e dging

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.

M a t e ria l U nit e d St a t e s Fe de ra l I nc om e T a x Conside ra t ions

The following discussion supplements, or to the extent inconsistent therewith, amends and modifies, the discussion in the Product
Supplement under the heading "Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations" and, except as expressly provided below,
it is subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth therein. Terms not defined herein shall have the same
meanings given such terms in the Product Supplement.
In the opinion of our special tax counsel, Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP, the notes should be treated as fixed rate debt
instruments for United States federal income tax purposes. Because the issuer will have an unconditional option to redeem the notes
at par on any payment date on which the rate would otherwise be increased, the issuer will be deemed to exercise the redemption
option to minimize the yield on the notes for purposes of determining whether the notes have original issue discount ("OID") and the
yield to maturity of the notes. Accordingly, the issuer will be deemed for this purpose to redeem the notes on the next succeeding
payment date on which an increase in the interest rate would otherwise occur and increase the yield to maturity. If redemption does
not actually occur, contrary to the assumption made according to the above rules, then solely to determine the amount and accrual of
qualified stated interest and OID, a U.S. Holder must redetermine the yield and maturity of a note by treating the note as having been
retired and reissued on the date the assumed redemption does not occur for an amount equal to the note's adjusted issue price on
that date. See "Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations" in the Product Supplement.

M e dic a re T a x

Certain U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates, and trusts must pay a 3.8% tax (the "Medicare Tax") on the lesser of the U.S.
person's (1) "net investment income" or "undistributed net investment income" in the case of an estate or trust and (2) the excess of
modified adjusted gross income over a certain specified threshold for the taxable year. "Net investment income" generally includes
income from interest, dividends, and net gains from the disposition of property (such as the securities) unless such income or net
gains are derived in the ordinary course of a trade or business (other than a trade or business that is a passive activity with respect to
the taxpayer or a trade or business of trading in financial instruments or commodities). Net investment income may be reduced by
allowable deductions properly allocable to such gross income or net gain. Any interest earned or deemed earned on the notes and
any gain on sale or other taxable disposition of the notes will be subject to the Medicare Tax. If you are an individual, estate, or trust,
you are urged to consult with your tax advisor regarding application of Medicare Tax to your income and gains in respect of your
investment in the notes.

http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1053092/000095010315000638/dp52936_424b2-ir34.htm[1/29/2015 10:24:24 AM]



Under the "Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act" ("FATCA") and recently finalized regulations, a 30% withholding tax is
imposed on "withholdable payments" and certain "passthru payments" made to "foreign financial institutions" (as defined in the
regulations or an applicable intergovernmental agreement) (and their more than 50% affiliates) unless the payee foreign financial
institution agrees, among other things, to disclose the identity of any U.S. individual with an account at the institution (or the
institution's affiliates) and to annually report certain information about such account. The term "withholdable payments" generally
includes (1) payments of fixed or determinable annual or periodical gains, profits, and income ("FDAP"), in each case, from sources
within the United States, and (2) gross proceeds from the sale of any property of a type which can produce interest or dividends from
sources within the United States. "Passthru payments" means any withholdable payment and any foreign passthru payment. To
avoid becoming subject to the 30% withholding tax on payments to them, we and other foreign financial institutions may be required
to report information to the IRS regarding the holders of the securities and, in the case of holders who (i) fail to provide the relevant
information, (ii) are foreign financial institutions who have not agreed to comply with these information reporting requirements, or (iii)
hold the securities directly or indirectly through such non-compliant foreign financial institutions, we may be required to withhold on a
portion of payments under the securities. FATCA also requires withholding agents making withholdable payments to certain foreign
entities that do not disclose the name, address, and taxpayer identification number of any substantial U.S. owners (or certify that they
do not have any substantial United States owners) to withhold tax at a rate of 30%. We will treat payments on the notes as
withholdable payments for these purposes.


5

Withholding under FATCA will apply to all withholdable payments and certain passthru payments without regard to whether the
beneficial owner of the payment is a U.S. person, or would otherwise be entitled to an exemption from the imposition of withholding
tax pursuant to an applicable tax treaty with the United States or pursuant to U.S. domestic law. Unless a foreign financial institution
is the beneficial owner of a payment, it will be subject to refund or credit in accordance with the same procedures and limitations
applicable to other taxes withheld on FDAP payments provided that the beneficial owner of the payment furnishes such information as
the IRS determines is necessary to determine whether such beneficial owner is a United States owned foreign entity and the identity
of any substantial United States owners of such entity.

Pursuant to the recently finalized regulations described above and IRS Notice 2013-43, and subject to the exceptions described
below, FATCA's withholding regime generally will apply to (i) withholdable payments (other than gross proceeds of the type described
above) made after June 30, 2014 (other than certain payments made with respect to a "preexisting obligation," as defined in the
regulations); (ii) payments of gross proceeds of the type described above with respect to a sale or disposition occurring after
December 31, 2016; and (iii) foreign passthru payments made after the later of December 31, 2016, or six months after the date that
final regulations defining the term "foreign passthru payment" are published. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of FATCA
discussed above generally will not apply to (a) any obligation (other than an instrument that is treated as equity for U.S. tax purposes
or that lacks a stated expiration or term) that is outstanding on July 1, 2014 (a "grandfathered obligation"); (b) any obligation that
produces withholdable payments solely because the obligation is treated as giving rise to a dividend equivalent pursuant to Code
section 871(m) and the regulations thereunder that is outstanding at any point prior to six months after the date on which obligations
of its type are first treated as giving rise to dividend equivalents; and (c) any agreement requiring a secured party to make payments
with respect to collateral securing one or more grandfathered obligations (even if the collateral is not itself a grandfathered
obligation). Thus, if you hold your notes through a foreign financial institution or foreign entity, a portion of any of your payments, may
be subject to 30% withholding.

Supple m e nt a l Pla n of Dist ribut ion

Under the terms and subject to the conditions contained in a distribution agreement with Incapital LLC dated March 23, 2012, which
we refer to as the distribution agreement, Incapital LLC will act as placement agent for the securities. The placement agents will
receive a fee from Credit Suisse or one of our affiliates of $13.31 per $1,000 principal amount of the securities and will forgo fees for
sales to fiduciary accounts. 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 three 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 three business days, unless the parties to a trade
expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, if the Settlement Date is more than three business days after the Trade Date, purchasers
who wish to transact in the securities more than three business days prior to the Settlement Date will be required to specify
alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
