Dated February 26, 2019

Credit Suisse AG $4,150,090 Allocation Securities
Linked to the Performance of a Weighted Basket of Indices due February 29, 2024
Principal at Risk Securities
I nve st m e nt De sc ript ion
These Allocation Securities (the "Securities") are senior, unsecured obligations of Credit Suisse AG, acting through its London branch ("Credit Suisse" or the "Issuer") linked to the performance of a weighted
basket (the "Basket") consisting of the S&P 500® Index, the MSCI EAFE® Index and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (each, a "Basket Component," and together, the "Basket Components"). The
Securities will rank pari passu with all of our other senior unsecured obligations. On the Final Valuation Date, different weightings will be allocated to the Basket Components based on their individual
performances as follows: 76.47% for the Basket Component with the highest return (whether positive or negative), 23.53% for the Basket Component with the second-highest return (whether positive or
negative), and 0% for the Basket Component with the lowest return (whether positive or negative). At maturity, Credit Suisse will pay you a return proportional to the appreciation or depreciation in the level
of the Basket from the Initial Basket Level to the Final Basket Level. If the Allocated Basket Return is positive, at maturity, Credit Suisse will pay the full Principal Amount plus a return equal to the Principal
Amount multiplied by the Allocated Basket Return. If the Allocated Basket Return is negative, Credit Suisse will pay you a cash payment that is less than the Principal Amount, if anything, resulting in a loss
of your principal that is proportionate to the full depreciation of the Basket from the Initial Basket Level to the Final Basket Level. In this case, you will have full downside exposure to the Basket from the
Initial Basket Level to the Final Basket Level, and you could lose all of your initial investment. I nve st ing in t he Se c urit ie s involve s signific a nt risk s. Y ou w ill not re c e ive int e re st or

Securities.

¨
Y ou m a y re c e ive le ss t ha n t he princ ipa l a m ount a t m a t urit y -- You may receive less at maturity than you originally invested in the Securities. If the Final Basket Level is less than the Initial
Basket Level, you will be fully exposed to any depreciation in the Basket from the Initial Basket Level to the Final Basket Level and will incur a loss proportionate to the Allocated Basket Return. In this
case, at maturity, the amount Credit Suisse will pay you will be less than the principal amount of the Securities and you could lose your entire investment. It is not possible to predict whether the Final
Basket Level will be negative, and in that case, by how much the Final Basket Level will decrease in comparison to the Initial Basket Level. Any payment on the Securities is subject to our ability to pay
our obligations as they become due.

¨
Re ga rdle ss of t he a m ount of a ny pa ym e nt you re c e ive on t he Se c urit ie s, your a c t ua l yie ld m a y be diffe re nt in re a l va lue t e rm s -- 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.

¨
Cha nge s in t he le ve ls of t he Ba sk e t Com pone nt s m a y offse t e a c h ot he r -- Movements in the levels of the Basket Components may not correlate with each other. At a time when the
level of one of the Basket Components increases, the levels of the other Basket Components may not increase as much or may even decline. Therefore, in calculating the Allocated Basket Return,
increases in the level of one of the Basket Components may be moderated, or more than offset, by lesser increases or declines in the levels of the other Basket Components.

Although the Best Performing Basket Component will be the most heavily weighted Basket Component and the Worst Performing Basket Component will be weighted at zero, the return of the Best
Performing Basket Component may not be positive or may not be positive enough to counterbalance a negative Basket Component Return from the Second-Best Performing Basket Component if the
Second-Best Performing Basket Component is not weighted at zero. In such a scenario, the allocation of the Basket Component Weightings based on the individual performances of the Basket
Components will not prevent you from losing some or all of your investment. If at maturity the Allocated Basket Return is negative, you will receive an amount that is less than the amount of your
original investment in the Securities, and could be zero.

¨
T he Se c urit ie s a re subje c t t o t he c re dit risk of Cre dit 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.

¨
T he Se c urit ie s do not pa y int e re st -- We will not pay interest on the Securities. You may receive less at maturity than you could have earned on ordinary interest-bearing debt securities with
similar maturities, including other of our debt securities, since the Payment at Maturity is based on the performance of the Basket. Because the Payment at Maturity may be less than the amount
originally invested in the Securities, the return on the Securities (the effective yield to maturity) may be negative. Even if it is positive, the return payable on each Security may not be enough to
compensate you for any loss in value due to inflation and other factors relating to the value of money over time.

¨
T he st a t e d pa yout from t he I ssue r a pplie s only if you hold t he Se c urit ie s t o m a t urit y -- The value of the Securities prior to maturity may be less than the initial investment amount and
substantially different than the amount expected at maturity. If you are able to sell your Securities prior to maturity in the secondary market, your return may be less than the Allocated Basket Return
and you may receive less than your initial investment amount even if the level of the Basket is positive at that time. The stated payout on the Securities applies only if you hold the Securities to maturity.

¨
Curre nc y Ex c ha nge Risk -- Because the prices of the equity securities included in the MSCI EAFE® Index and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index are converted into U.S. dollars for purposes of
calculating the level of the MSCI EAFE® Index and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, investors will be exposed to currency exchange rate risk with respect to each of the currencies in which the
equity securities included in the MSCI EAFE® Index and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index trade. Currency exchange rates may be highly volatile, particularly in relation to emerging or developing
nations' currencies and, in certain market conditions, also in relation to developed nations' currencies. Significant changes in currency exchange rates, including changes in liquidity and prices, can occur
within very short periods of time. Currency exchange rate risks include, but are not limited to, convertibility risk, market volatility and potential interference by foreign governments through regulation of
local markets, foreign investment or particular transactions in foreign currency. These factors may adversely affect the values of the equity securities included in the MSCI EAFE® Index and the MSCI
Emerging Markets Index, the level of the MSCI EAFE® Index and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index and the value of the securities.

7

¨
Em e rging M a rk e t s Risk -- The MSCI Emerging Markets Index is exposed to the political and economic risks of emerging market countries. In recent years, some emerging markets have undergone
significant political, economic and social upheaval. Such far-reaching changes have resulted in constitutional and social tensions and, in some cases, instability and reaction against market reforms has
occurred. With respect to any emerging market nation, there is the possibility of nationalization, expropriation or confiscation, political changes, government regulation and social instability. There can be
no assurance that future political changes will not adversely affect the economic conditions of an emerging market nation. Political or economic instability could have an adverse effect on the
performance of the securities.

¨
Fore ign se c urit ie s m a rk e t s risk -- Some or all of the assets included in the MSCI EAFE® Index and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index are issued by foreign companies and trade in foreign
securities markets. Investments in the Securities therefore involve risks associated with the securities markets in those countries, including risks of volatility in those markets, government intervention in
those markets and cross shareholdings in companies in certain countries. Also, foreign companies are generally subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements and
securities trading rules different from those applicable to U.S. reporting companies. The equity securities included in the MSCI EAFE® Index and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index may be more volatile
than domestic equity securities and may be subject to different political, market, economic, exchange rate, regulatory and other risks, including changes in foreign governments, economic and fiscal
policies, currency exchange laws or other laws or restrictions. Moreover, the economies of foreign countries may differ favorably or unfavorably from the economy of the United States in such respects as
growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources and self-sufficiency. These factors may adversely affect the values of the equity securities included in the MSCI EAFE®
Index and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, and therefore the performance of the Basket and the value of the Securities.

¨
H e dging a nd t ra ding a c t ivit y -- We, any dealer or any of our or their respective affiliates may carry out hedging activities related to the Securities, including in instruments related to the Basket
Components. We, any dealer or any of our or their respective or our affiliates may also trade instruments related to the Basket Components from time to time. Any of these hedging or trading activities on
or prior to the Trade Date and during the term of the Securities could adversely affect our payment to you at maturity.

¨
T he e st im a t e d va lue of t he Se c urit ie s on t he T ra de Da t e is le ss t ha n t he Pric e t o Public -- The initial estimated value of your Securities on the Trade Date (as determined by
reference to our pricing models and our internal funding rate) is less than the original Price to Public. The Price to Public of the Securities includes any discounts or commissions as well as transaction
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1053092/000095010319002557/dp102930_424b2-a296.htm[2/28/2019 3:03:41 PM]


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. As such, the payout on the Securities can be replicated using a combination of these components and the value of these components, as
determined by us using our pricing models, will impact the terms of the Securities at issuance. Our option valuation models are proprietary. Our pricing models take 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.

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.

¨
Effe c t of int e re st ra t e use d in st ruc t uring t he Se c urit ie s -- 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.

¨
Se c onda ry m a rk e t pric e s -- 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

8

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 any 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 seven months.
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.

¨
Cre dit Suisse is subje c t t o Sw iss re gula t ion -- 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.

¨
La c k of liquidit 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.

¨
Pot e nt ia l c onflic t s -- We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the Securities, including acting as calculation agent, 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.

¨
U npre dic t a ble e c onom ic a nd m a rk e t fa c t ors w ill a ffe c t t he va lue of t he Se c urit ie s -- The payout on the Securities can be replicated using a combination of the components described
in "The estimated value of the Securities on the Trade Date is less than the Price to Public." Therefore, in addition to the levels of the Basket Components, 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:

o
the expected and actual volatility of the Basket Components;

o
the time to maturity of the Securities;

o
the dividend rate on the equity securities included in the Basket Components;

o
interest and yield rates in the market generally;

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

o
geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the components included in the Basket Components or markets generally and which may affect the
levels of the Basket Components; 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, and such price could be less than your initial investment and significantly
different than the amount expected at 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.

¨
N o ow ne rship right s re la t ing t o t he Ba sk e t Com pone nt s -- Your return on the Securities will not reflect the return you

9

would realize if you actually owned the equity securities that comprise the Basket Components. The return on your investment is not the same as the total return you would receive based on the
purchase of the equity securities that comprise the Basket Components.

¨
N o divide nd pa ym e nt s or vot ing right s -- As a holder of the Securities, you will not have voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions or other rights with respect to the
equity securities that comprise the Basket Components. Further, the performance of the Basket Components will not include these dividends or distributions and does not contain a "total return" feature.

¨
T he U .S. fe de ra l t a x c onse que nc e s of a n inve st m e nt in t he Se c urit ie s a re unc le a r -- There is no direct legal authority regarding the proper U.S. federal tax treatment of the Securities,
and we do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"). Consequently, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the Securities are uncertain, and the IRS or a court might
not agree with the treatment of the Securities as prepaid financial contracts that are treated as "open transactions." If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment of the Securities, the
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1053092/000095010319002557/dp102930_424b2-a296.htm[2/28/2019 3:03:41 PM]


tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the Securities, including the timing and character of income recognized by U.S. investors and the withholding tax consequences to non-U.S.
investors, might be materially and adversely affected. Moreover, future legislation, Treasury regulations or IRS guidance could adversely affect the U.S. federal tax treatment of the Securities, possibly
retroactively.

The examples and table below illustrate Payments at Maturity for a hypothetical offering of the Securities under various scenarios, with the assumptions set forth below. Numbers in the examples and table
below have been rounded for ease of analysis. You should not take these examples or the table below as an indication or assurance of the expected performance of the Basket. The actual terms are set
forth on the cover of this pricing supplement and under "Key Terms" above. You should consider carefully whether the Securities are suitable to your investment goals. Any payment on the Securities is
subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.

Principal Amount:

Basket Component Weightings:
For the Best Performing Basket Component: 72.50%, for the Second-Best Performing Basket Component: 27.50% and for the Worst

Because the S&P 500® Index has the highest Basket Component Return, it is the Best Performing Basket Component. Because the MSCI EAFE® Index has the second-highest Basket Component Return, it
is the Second-Best Performing Basket Component. Because the MSCI Emerging Markets Index has the lowest Basket Component Return, it is the Worst Performing Basket Component. Therefore, the
Basket Component Weightings are determined as follows:

The Final Basket Level will be calculated as follows:

Final Basket Level

=
100 × [1 + (Best Performing Basket Component Return x Basket Component Weighting) +


(Second-Best Performing Basket Component Return x Basket Component Weighting) +


(Worst Performing Basket Component Return x Basket Component Weighting)]




=
100 × [1 + (50% x 72.50%) + (25% x 27.50%) + (5% x 0%)]




=
143.125



The Allocated Basket Return will be calculated as follows:

Allocated Basket Return
=
Final Basket Level ­ Initial Basket Level


Initial Basket Level




=
143.125 ­ 100

=
43.125%



As a result, the Payment at Maturity will be calculated as follows:

Payment at Maturity
=
$10 + ($10 × Allocated Basket Return)




=
$10 + ($10 × 43.125%)




=
$14.3125



Because the Allocated Basket Return is equal to 43.125%, the Payment at Maturity is equal to $14.3125 per $10 Principal Amount of Securities, resulting in a total return on the Securities of 43.125%.

Because the MSCI EAFE® Index has the highest Basket Component Return, it is the Best Performing Basket Component. Because the S&P 500® Index has the second-highest Basket Component Return, it
is the Second-Best Performing Basket Component. Because the MSCI Emerging Markets Index has the lowest Basket Component Return, it is the Worst Performing Basket Component. Therefore, the

Because the Allocated Basket Return is equal to 6.45%, the Payment at Maturity is equal to $10.645 per $10 Principal Amount of Securities, resulting in a total return on the Securities of 6.45%.

U nit e d St a t e s Fe de ra l T a x Conside ra t ions
This discussion supplements and, to the extent inconsistent therewith, supersedes the discussion in the accompanying product supplement under "Material United States Federal Income Tax
Considerations."

There are no statutory, judicial or administrative authorities that address the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Securities or instruments that are similar to the Securities. In the opinion of our counsel,
Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, a Security should be treated as a prepaid financial contract that is an "open transaction" for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Assuming this treatment of the Securities is respected and subject to the discussion in "Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations" in the accompanying product supplement, the following
U.S. federal income tax consequences should result:

·
You should not recognize taxable income over the term of the Securities prior to maturity, other than pursuant to a sale or other disposition.

·
Upon a sale or other disposition (including retirement) of a Security, you should recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized and your tax basis in the
Security. Such gain or loss should be long-term capital gain or loss if you held the Security for more than one year.

We do not plan to request a ruling from the IRS regarding the treatment of the Securities, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the treatment described herein. In particular, the IRS could treat the
Securities as contingent payment debt instruments, in which case the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the Securities, including the timing and character of income recognized, could be
materially and adversely affected. Moreover, the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS have requested comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of "prepaid forward
contracts" and similar financial instruments and have indicated that such transactions may be the subject of future regulations or other guidance. In addition, members of Congress have proposed legislative
changes to the tax treatment of derivative contracts. Any legislation, Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax
consequences of an investment in the Securities, possibly with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax advisor regarding possible alternative tax treatments of the Securities and potential changes in
applicable law.

N on -U .S. H olde rs. Subject to the discussions in the next paragraph and in "Material United States Federal Income 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 should 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.

As discussed under "Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations--Non-U.S. Holders Generally--Substitute Dividend and Dividend Equivalent Payments" in the accompanying product
supplement, Section 871(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally imposes a 30% 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. Treasury regulations under Section 871(m), as modified by an IRS notice, exclude from their scope financial instruments issued prior
to January 1, 2021 that do not have a "delta" of one with respect to any U.S. equity. Based on the terms of the Securities and representations provided by us, our counsel is of the opinion that the Securities
should not be treated as transactions that have a "delta" of one within the meaning of the regulations with respect to any U.S. equity and, therefore, should not be subject to withholding tax under Section
871(m).

A determination that the Securities are not subject to Section 871(m) is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this determination. Moreover, Section 871(m) is complex and its application
may depend on your particular circumstances, including whether you enter into other transactions with respect to a U.S. equity to which the Securities relate. You should consult your tax advisor regarding
the potential application of Section 871(m) to the Securities.

If withholding tax applies to the Securities, we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts withheld.

FAT CA. You should review the section entitled "Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations--Securities Held Through Foreign Entities" in the accompanying product supplement regarding
withholding rules under the "FATCA" regime. The discussion in that section is hereby modified to reflect regulations proposed by the U.S. Treasury Department indicating an intent to eliminate the
requirement under FATCA of withholding on gross proceeds of the disposition of affected financial instruments. The U.S. Treasury Department has indicated that taxpayers may rely on these proposed
regulations pending their finalization.

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. Such hedging or trading activities on or prior to the Trade Date and
during the term of the Securities could adversely affect the value of the Basket and, as a result, could decrease the amount you may receive on the Securities at maturity. For additional information, see
"Supplemental Use of Proceeds and Hedging" in any accompanying product supplement.

Supple m e nt a l Pla n of Dist ribut ion
Under the terms of a distributor accession confirmation with UBS Financial Services Inc., dated as of March 12, 2014, UBS Financial Services Inc. will act as distributor for the Securities. The distributor may
receive a fee from Credit Suisse or one of our affiliates of $0.35 per $10 principal amount of Securities. For additional information, see "Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)" in any 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 or less 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.

V a lidit y of t he Se c urit ie s
In the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, as United States counsel to Credit Suisse, when the Securities offered by this pricing supplement have been executed and issued by Credit Suisse and
authenticated by the trustee pursuant to the indenture, and delivered against payment therefor, such Securities will be valid and binding obligations of Credit Suisse, enforceable against Credit Suisse in

accordance with their terms, subject to (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, (ii) possible judicial or regulatory actions giving effect to governmental actions
or foreign laws affecting creditors' rights and (iii) concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability (including, without limitation, concepts of good faith, fair dealing and the lack of
bad faith), provided that such counsel expresses no opinion as to the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law on the conclusions expressed above. This
opinion is given as of the date of this pricing supplement and is limited to the laws of the State of New York, except that such counsel expresses no opinion as to the application of state securities or Blue
Sky laws to the Securities. Insofar as this opinion involves matters governed by Swiss law, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP has relied, without independent inquiry or investigation, on the opinion of Homburger
AG, dated February 11, 2019 and filed by Credit Suisse as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 6-K on February 11, 2019. The opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP is subject to the same assumptions,
qualifications and limitations with respect to such matters as are contained in the opinion of Homburger AG. In addition, the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP is subject to customary assumptions about
the establishment of the terms of the Securities, the trustee's authorization, execution and delivery of the indenture and its authentication of the Securities, and the validity, binding nature and enforceability of
the indenture with respect to the trustee, all as stated in the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP dated February 11, 2019, which was filed by Credit Suisse as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 6-K
on February 11, 2019. Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP expresses no opinion as to waivers of objections to venue, the subject matter or personal jurisdiction of a United States federal court or the effectiveness
of service of process other than in accordance with applicable law. In addition, such counsel notes that the enforceability in the United States of Section 10.08(c) of the indenture is subject to the limitations
set forth in the United States Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976.
