Key Terms

Issuer:	Credit Suisse AG (“Credit Suisse”), acting through its London branch
Reference Share Issuer:	The issuer of the Underlying.
Underlying:	The notes are linked to the performance of the common stock of QUALCOMM Incorporated. For additional information about the Underlying, see the information set forth under “The Underlying” herein.
Payment at Maturity:	At maturity, you will receive a cash payment or a delivery of shares that will reflect the performance of the Underlying, as follows:
	·If the Final Level is greater than or equal to the Buffer Level, your payment at maturity per $10,000 principal amount of notes will equal $10,000 plus the product of $10,000 and the Fixed Payment Percentage.
	The maximum Payment at Maturity is $11,360 per $10,000 principal amount.
	·If the Final Level is less than the Buffer Level, your payment at maturity per $10,000 principal amount of notes will equal the Physical Delivery Amount plus a cash amount in respect of any fractional share, subject to our election to pay cash instead as noted below.
	If the Final Level is less than the Buffer Level, you could receive shares of the Underlying with a value likely to be less than $10,000 per $10,000 principal amount of notes. You could lose your entire investment. Any payment or delivery on the notes is subject to our ability to meet our obligations as they become due.
Physical Delivery Amount:	The Physical Delivery Amount per $10,000 principal amount of notes is a number of shares of the Underlying rounded down to the nearest whole number and equal to the product of (i) $10,000 divided by the Buffer Level and (ii) the share adjustment factor. The share adjustment factor is initially set equal to 1.0 on the Pricing Date, subject to adjustment as described under “Description of the Securities—Adjustments” in the relevant product supplement. In lieu of any fractional share in respect of the Physical Delivery Amount we will pay a cash amount equal to such fractional share multiplied by the Final Level. If the fractional share amount to be paid in cash is a de minimis amount, as determined by the calculation agent, the holder will not receive such amount. If the Physical Delivery Amount is less than one share, the Payment at Maturity will be paid in cash. Therefore, if the Buffer Level is greater than $10,000, the Payment at Maturity will be paid in cash, unless the share adjustment factor increases by an amount sufficient to result in the delivery of at least one share. The Physical Delivery Amount (together with any cash amount paid in lieu of fractional shares) will be determined for each $10,000 principal amount of notes you hold. At our election, you may receive cash instead of the Physical Delivery Amount, in an amount equal to the product of (i) $10,000 divided by the Buffer Level and (ii) the Final Level. If we exercise our option to deliver cash, we will give notice of our election at least one business day before the first Valuation Date.
Fixed Payment Percentage:	13.60%
Buffer Level:	$59.05, which is approximately 80% of the Initial Level.
Initial Level:	$73.81, which is the closing level of the Underlying on the Strike Date.
Strike Date:	April 23, 2020
Final Level:	The arithmetic average of the closing levels of the Underlying on each of the five Valuation Dates.
Valuation Dates:	April 30, 2021, May 3, 2021, May 4, 2021, May 5, 2021 and May 6, 2021 (each, a “Valuation Date,” and May 6, 2021, the “Final Valuation Date”), subject to postponement as set forth in any accompanying product supplement under “Description of the Notes—Postponement of calculation dates” or if any Valuation Date is postponed because it is not a trading day.
Maturity Date:	May 11, 2021, subject to postponement as set forth in any accompanying product supplement under “Description of the Notes—Postponement of calculation dates” or if the Final Valuation Date is postponed for any reason. If the Maturity Date is not a business day, the Payment at Maturity will be paid or delivered 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.
CUSIP:	22550MEG0

Hypothetical Payments at Maturity for Each $10,000 Principal Amount of Notes

The following table and examples illustrate the hypothetical Payments at Maturity for a $10,000 principal amount of notes for a hypothetical range of performance of the Underlying, assuming (i) a Fixed Payment Percentage of 13.60%, (ii) a Buffer Level of 80% of the Initial Level, (iii) a hypothetical Initial Level of $125, (iv) a share adjustment factor of 1.0 and (v), if the Physical Delivery Amount is to be delivered at maturity, we do not exercise our right to pay cash instead of the Physical Delivery Amount. The actual Fixed Payment Percentage, Buffer Level and Initial Level are set forth in “Key Terms” herein. The hypothetical results set forth below are for illustrative purposes only. The actual payment at maturity applicable to a purchaser of the notes will be based on the arithmetic average of the closing levels of the Underlying on the Valuation Dates. Any payment or delivery on the notes is subject to our ability to meet our obligations as they become due. The numbers appearing in the following table and examples have been rounded for ease of analysis.

Percentage Change in the Level of the Underlying from the Initial Level to the Final Level	Return on the Notes	Payment at Maturity*
100%	13.60%	$11,360
90%	13.60%	$11,360

*If shares are delivered, the Payment at Maturity will be comprised of a number of shares plus a cash amount in lieu of any fractional shares. The value of the shares delivered at maturity will depend on the value of the Underlying at the time of delivery. Therefore, the return on the notes may differ from and may be lower than the percentage change in the level of the Underlying from the Initial Level to the Final Level. See “Selected Risk Considerations—The value of the Physical Delivery Amount could be less on the Maturity Date than on the Final Valuation Date” herein.

Hypothetical Examples of Amounts Payable at Maturity

The following examples illustrate how the payment at maturity is calculated.

Example 1: The level of the Underlying increases by 60% from the Initial Level to the Final Level. Because the Final Level is greater than the Buffer Level, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $11,360 per $10,000 principal amount of notes, calculated as follows:

Payment at maturity	=	$10,000 + ($10,000 × the Fixed Payment Percentage)
	=	$10,000 + ($10,000 × 13.60%)
	=	$11,360

Regardless of the appreciation of the Underlying, the return on the notes will not exceed the Fixed Payment Percentage.

Example 2: The level of the Underlying decreases by 10% from the Initial Level to the Final Level. Because the Final Level is greater than or equal to the Buffer Level, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $11,360 per $10,000 principal amount of notes, calculated as follows:

Payment at maturity	=	$10,000 + ($10,000 × the Fixed Payment Percentage)
	=	$10,000 + ($10,000 × 13.60%)
	=	$11,360

Example 3: The level of the Underlying decreases by 30% from the Initial Level to the Final Level. Because the Final Level is less than the Buffer Level, the investor receives a payment at maturity equal to the Physical Delivery Amount, calculated as follows:

Physical Delivery Amount	=	$10,000 / Buffer Level
	=	$10,000 / $100
	=	100 shares of the Underlying
Payment at maturity	=	Physical Delivery Amount
	=	100 shares of the Underlying

In this example, at maturity an investor would receive a Payment at Maturity equal to 100 shares of the Underlying. The value of the Payment at Maturity based on the Final Level is $8,750, calculated as follows:

Physical Delivery Amount	=	100 shares of the Underlying
Value of Payment at Maturity on the Final Valuation Date	=	100 shares of the Underlying × $87.50
	=	$8,750

3 

In this scenario, the level of the Underlying decreases by 30% and you will lose approximately 12.50% of the principal amount at maturity; therefore the notes will provide an effective buffer (which is the difference between the negative performance of the Underlying and the loss on the notes) of approximately 17.50%. In these circumstances, the investor will be exposed to any depreciation in the level of the Underlying from the Initial Level to the time of delivery.

Example 4: The level of the Underlying decreases by 60% from the Initial Level to the Final Level. Because the Final Level is less than the Buffer Level, the investor receives a payment at maturity equal to the Physical Delivery Amount, calculated as follows:

Physical Delivery Amount	=	$10,000 / Buffer Level
	=	$10,000 / $100
	=	100 shares of the Underlying
Payment at maturity	=	Physical Delivery Amount
	=	100 shares of the Underlying

In this example, at maturity an investor would receive a Payment at Maturity equal to 100 shares of the Underlying. The value of the Payment at Maturity based on the Final Level is $5,000, calculated as follows:

Physical Delivery Amount	=	100 shares of the Underlying
Value of Payment at Maturity on the Final Valuation Date	=	100 shares of the Underlying × $50
	=	$5,000

In this scenario, the level of the Underlying decreases by 60% and you will lose approximately 50% of the principal amount at maturity; therefore the notes will provide an effective buffer (which is the difference between the negative performance of the Underlying and the loss on the notes) of approximately 10%. In these circumstances, the investor will be exposed to any depreciation in the level of the Underlying from the Initial Level to the time of delivery. A comparison of this example with the previous example illustrates the diminishing benefit of the effective buffer as the level of the Underlying decreases.

Selected Risk Considerations

An investment in the notes involves significant risks. Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the Underlying or other instruments linked to the Underlying. These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” section of any accompanying product supplement.

• YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS — The notes do not guarantee any return of your principal amount. You could lose up to $10,000 per $10,000 principal amount of notes. The return on the notes at maturity is linked to the performance of the Underlying and will depend on whether, and the extent to which the level of the Underlying has increased or decreased over the term of the notes. As of the Valuation Date, if the Final Level is less than the Buffer Level, you will be fully exposed to such negative performance on a leveraged basis of $10,000 divided by the Buffer Level. In this case, the Payment at Maturity you will receive will likely be less than the principal amount of the notes, and you could lose your entire investment. Any payment or delivery on the notes is subject to our ability to meet our obligations as they become due.

• REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT OF ANY PAYMENT YOU RECEIVE ON THE NOTES, YOUR ACTUAL YIELD MAY BE DIFFERENT IN REAL VALUE TERMS — Inflation may cause the real value of any payment you receive on the notes to be less at maturity than it is at the time you invest. An investment in the notes 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 NOTES DO NOT PAY INTEREST — We will not pay interest on the notes. 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 Underlying. Because the payment due at maturity may be less than the amount originally invested in the notes, the return on the notes (the effective yield to maturity) may be negative. Even if it is positive, the return payable on the notes 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.

· THE NOTES ARE SUBJECT TO THE CREDIT RISK OF CREDIT SUISSE — Investors are dependent on our ability to pay all amounts due on the notes and, therefore, if we were to default on our obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the notes. 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 notes prior to maturity.

· THE AVERAGING CONVENTION USED TO CALCULATE THE FINAL LEVEL COULD LIMIT RETURNS — Your investment in the notes may not perform as well as an investment in an instrument that measures the point-to-point performance of the Underlying from the Strike Date to the Final Valuation Date (subject to the Fixed Payment Percentage). Your ability to receive a return equal to the Fixed Payment Percentage may be limited by the 5-day-end-of-term averaging used to calculate the Final Level, especially if there is a significant increase in the closing level of the Underlying on the Final Valuation Date. Accordingly, you may not receive the benefit of the full appreciation of the Underlying, if any, between the Strike Date and the Final Valuation Date.

· THE PROBABILITY THAT THE FINAL LEVEL WILL BE LESS THAN THE BUFFER LEVEL WILL DEPEND ON THE VOLATILITY OF THE UNDERLYING — “Volatility” refers to the frequency and magnitude of changes in the level of the Underlying. The greater the expected volatility with respect to the Underlying on the Pricing Date, the higher the expectation as of the Pricing Date that the Final Level could be less than the Buffer Level, indicating a higher expected risk of loss on the notes. The terms of the notes are set, in part, based on expectations about the volatility of the Underlying as of the Pricing Date. The volatility of the Underlying can change significantly over the term of the notes. The level of the Underlying could fall sharply, which could result in a significant loss of principal. You should be willing to accept the downside market risk of the Underlying and the potential to lose a significant amount of your principal at maturity.

· YOUR MAXIMUM GAIN ON THE NOTES IS LIMITED TO THE FIXED PAYMENT PERCENTAGE —If the Final Level is greater than or equal to the Buffer Level, for each $10,000 principal amount of notes, you will receive at maturity $10,000 plus an additional amount that will equal a predetermined percentage of the principal amount, regardless of the appreciation in the Underlying, which may be significant. We refer to this percentage as the Fixed Payment Percentage, which will be set on the Pricing Date. Accordingly, the maximum Payment at Maturity per $10,000 principal amount of notes is expected to be

5 

$10,000 plus $10,000 multiplied by the Fixed Payment Percentage. Any payment or delivery on the notes is subject to our ability to meet our obligations as they become due.

· THE VALUE OF THE PHYSICAL DELIVERY AMOUNT COULD BE LESS ON THE MATURITY DATE THAN ON THE FINAL VALUATION DATE — If the Final Level is less than the Buffer Level, you will receive on the Maturity Date the Physical Delivery Amount, which will consist of a whole number of shares of the Underlying plus an amount in cash corresponding to any fractional share, subject to our election to pay cash instead. The value of the Physical Delivery Amount on the Final Valuation Date will be less than $10,000 per $10,000 principal amount of notes and could fluctuate, possibly decreasing, in the period between the Final Valuation Date and the Maturity Date. We will make no adjustments to the Physical Delivery Amount to account for any such fluctuation and you will bear the risk of any decrease in the value of the Physical Delivery Amount between the Final Valuation Date and the Maturity Date. If the Physical Delivery Amount is less than one share, the Payment at Maturity will be paid in cash. Therefore, if the Buffer Level is greater than $10,000, the Payment at Maturity will be paid in cash, unless the share adjustment factor increases by an amount sufficient to result in the delivery of at least one share.

· NO AFFILIATION WITH THE REFERENCE SHARE ISSUER — We are not affiliated with the Reference Share Issuer. You should make your own investigation into the Underlying and the Reference Share Issuer. In connection with the offering of the notes, neither we nor our affiliates have participated in the preparation of any publicly available documents or made any due diligence inquiry with respect to the Reference Share Issuer.

· HEDGING AND TRADING ACTIVITY — We, any dealer or any of our or their respective affiliates may carry out hedging activities related to the notes, including in the Underlying or instruments related to the Underlying. We, any dealer or our or their respective affiliates may also trade in the Underlying or instruments related to the Underlying from time to time. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to the Pricing Date and during the term of the notes could adversely affect our payment to you at maturity.

· THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES ON THE PRICING DATE MAY BE LESS THAN THE PRICE TO PUBLIC — The initial estimated value of your notes on the Pricing 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 notes includes any discounts or commissions as well as transaction costs such as expenses incurred to create, document and market the notes and the cost of hedging our risks as issuer of the notes 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 notes. These amounts will be retained by Credit Suisse or our affiliates in connection with our structuring and offering of the notes (except to the extent discounts or commissions are reallowed to other broker-dealers or any costs are paid to third parties).

On the Pricing Date, we value the components of the notes 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 notes 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 notes 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 notes, 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 notes of other issuers.

· EFFECT OF INTEREST RATE USED IN STRUCTURING THE notes — The internal funding rate we use in structuring securities such as these notes 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 Pricing Date our internal funding rate is lower than our secondary market credit spreads, we expect that the economic terms of the notes will generally be less favorable to you than they would have been if our secondary market credit spread had been used in structuring the notes. We will also use our internal funding rate to determine the price of the notes if we post a bid to repurchase your notes in secondary market transactions. See “—Secondary Market Prices” below.

6 

• SECONDARY MARKET PRICES — If Credit Suisse (or an affiliate) bids for your notes 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 notes on the Pricing Date. The estimated value of the notes on the cover of this pricing supplement does not represent a minimum price at which we would be willing to buy the notes in the secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The secondary market price of your notes 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 notes 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 notes and other dealers might use the higher secondary market credit spread to price them. Furthermore, assuming no change in market conditions from the Pricing Date, the secondary market price of your notes 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 notes 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 notes may be lower than the price at which we may repurchase the notes from such dealer.

We (or an affiliate) may initially post a bid to repurchase the notes from you at a price that will exceed the then-current estimated value of the notes. 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 three months.

The notes 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 notes to maturity.

• POTENTIAL CONFLICTS — We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the notes, including acting as calculation agent, hedging our obligations under the notes 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 notes. Further, hedging activities may adversely affect any payment on or the value of the notes. 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 notes, which creates an additional incentive to sell the notes to you. We and/or our affiliates may also currently or from time to time engage in business with the Reference Share Issuer, including extending loans to, or making equity investments in, the Reference Share Issuer or providing advisory services to the Reference Share Issuer. In addition, one or more of our affiliates may publish research reports or otherwise express opinions with respect to the Reference Share Issuer and these reports may or may not recommend that investors buy or hold the Underlying. As a prospective purchaser of the notes, you should undertake an independent investigation of the Reference Share Issuer that in your judgment is appropriate to make an informed decision with respect to an investment in the notes.

· 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 notes and/or the ability of Credit Suisse to make payments thereunder and you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the notes.

• LACK OF LIQUIDITY — The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Credit Suisse (or its affiliates) intends to offer to purchase the notes 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 notes when you wish to do so. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the notes,

7 

the price at which you may be able to trade your notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which Credit Suisse (or its affiliates) is willing to buy the notes. If you have to sell your notes prior to maturity, you may not be able to do so, or you may have to sell them at a substantial loss.

· UNPREDICTABLE ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS WILL AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE NOTES — The payout on the notes can be replicated using a combination of the components described in “The estimated value of the notes on the Pricing Date may be less than the Price to Public.” Therefore, in addition to the level of the Underlying, the terms of the notes at issuance and the value of the notes prior to maturity may be influenced by factors that impact the value of fixed income securities and options in general, such as:

• the expected and actual volatility of the Underlying;

• the time to maturity of the notes;

• the dividend rate on the Underlying;

• interest and yield rates in the market generally;

• investors’ expectations with respect to the rate of inflation;

• events affecting companies engaged in the industry of the Reference Share Issuer;

• geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the Underlying or markets generally and which may affect the level of the Underlying; and

• 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 notes 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.

• NO OWNERSHIP RIGHTS RELATING TO THE UNDERLYING — Your return on the notes will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned shares of the Underlying. The return on your investment is not the same as the total return based on a purchase of shares of the Underlying.

• NO DIVIDEND PAYMENTS OR VOTING RIGHTS — As a holder of the notes, you will not have any ownership interest or rights in the Underlying, such as voting rights or dividend payments. In addition, the issuer of the Underlying will not have any obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the notes in taking any corporate action that might affect the value of the Underlying and therefore, the value of the notes.

• ANTI-DILUTION PROTECTION IS LIMITED — The calculation agent will make anti-dilution adjustments for certain events affecting the Underlying. However, an adjustment will not be required in response to all events that could affect the Underlying. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to make an adjustment, or if an adjustment is made but such adjustment does not fully reflect the economics of such event, the value of the notes may be materially and adversely affected. See “Description of the Notes—Adjustments—For equity securities of a reference share issuer” in the relevant product supplement.

• THE U.S. FEDERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES ARE UNCLEAR — There is no direct legal authority regarding the proper U.S. federal tax treatment of the notes, 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 notes are uncertain, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the treatment of the notes as prepaid financial contracts that are treated as “open transactions.” If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment of the notes, the tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the notes, 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 notes, possibly retroactively.

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 notes may be used in connection with hedging our obligations under the notes through one or more of our affiliates. Such hedging or trading activities on or prior to the Pricing Date and during the term of the notes (including on any calculation date, as defined in any accompanying product supplement) could adversely affect the value of the Underlying and, as a result, could decrease the amount you may receive on the notes at maturity. For additional information, see “Supplemental Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in any accompanying product supplement.

United States Federal Tax Considerations

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 notes or instruments that are similar to the notes. In the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, a note should be treated as a prepaid financial contract that is an “open transaction” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, there is uncertainty regarding this treatment. Moreover, our counsel’s opinion is based on market conditions as of the date of this preliminary pricing supplement and is subject to confirmation on the Pricing Date.

Assuming this treatment of the notes 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 notes prior to maturity, other than pursuant to a sale or other disposition.

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

· If you receive the underlying shares (and cash in lieu of any fractional shares) at maturity, you should not recognize gain or loss with respect to the underlying shares received. Instead, you should have an aggregate tax basis in the underlying shares received (including any fractional shares deemed received) equal to your tax basis in the notes. Your holding period for any underlying shares received should start on the day after receipt. With respect to any cash received in lieu of a fractional share, you should recognize capital loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash received in lieu of the fractional share and the portion of your tax basis in the notes that is allocable to the fractional share.

We do not plan to request a ruling from the IRS regarding the treatment of the notes, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the treatment described herein. In particular, the IRS could treat the notes as contingent payment debt instruments, in which case the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the notes, 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 notes, possibly with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax advisor regarding possible alternative tax treatments of the notes and potential changes in applicable law.

Non-U.S. Holders. 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 notes, 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 notes, provided that (i) income in respect of the notes 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, 2023 that do not have a “delta” of one with respect to any U.S. equity. Based on the terms of the notes and representations provided by us as of the date of this preliminary pricing supplement, our counsel is of the opinion that the notes 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). However, the final determination regarding the treatment of the notes under Section 871(m) will be made as of the Pricing Date for the notes and it is possible that the notes will be subject to withholding tax under Section 871(m) based on circumstances on that date.

11 

A determination that the notes 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 your other transactions. You should consult your tax advisor regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) to the notes.

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

FATCA. You should review the section entitled “Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations—Notes 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.

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

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 notes and any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

Supplemental Plan of Distribution

Under the terms of distributor accession confirmations with JPMS LLC and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., each dated as of June 18, 2008, JPMS LLC and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. will act as placement agents for the notes. The placement agents will receive discounts and commissions from Credit Suisse or one of our affiliates that will not exceed $100 per $10,000 principal amount of notes and will forgo discounts and commissions for sales to fiduciary accounts. For additional information, see “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)” in any accompanying product supplement.

We expect to deliver the notes against payment for the notes on the Settlement Date indicated herein, which may be a date that is greater than two business days following the Pricing 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 Pricing Date, purchasers who wish to transact in the notes more than two business days prior to the Settlement Date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
