Auto-Callable Securities due October 29, 2026

Based on the Performance of the Worst Performing of Four Underlyings

Principal at Risk Securities

Unlike ordinary debt securities, the Auto-Callable Securities due October 29, 2026 based on the performance of the worst performing of four Underlyings, which we refer to as the “securities”, do not provide for the regular payment of interest or guarantee the return of any principal at maturity. The securities will be automatically redeemed if the closing level of each Underlying on any Call Observation Date is greater than or equal to its Call Level, and for each security you hold you will receive a cash payment equal to $10 plus the Automatic Redemption Premium applicable to that Call Observation Date, as set forth below. No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed. At maturity, if the securities have not previously been redeemed and the Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is greater than or equal to its Downside Threshold Level, per security you will receive $10 plus the Contingent Return of $6.80. However, if the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is less than its Downside Threshold Level, meaning that the Worst Performing Underlying has depreciated by more than 40% from its Initial Level, the payment due at maturity per security will be significantly less than $10 by an amount that is proportionate to the full percentage decline in the level of the Worst Performing Underlying from its Initial Level to its Final Level. Under these circumstances, the Redemption Amount per security will be less than $6 and could be zero. Accordingly, you may lose your entire initial investment in the securities. All payments on the securities, including any repayment of principal, are subject to the credit risk of Credit Suisse.

Investment Summary

Auto-Callable Securities

Principal at Risk Securities

The Auto-Callable Securities due October 29, 2026 based on the worst performing of four Underlyings do not provide for the regular payment of interest or guarantee the return of any principal at maturity. The securities will be automatically redeemed if the closing level of each Underlying on any Call Observation Date is greater than or equal to its respective Call Level, and for each security you hold you will receive a cash payment equal to $10 plus the Automatic Redemption Premium applicable to such Call Observation Date. No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed. At maturity, if the securities have not previously been redeemed and the Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is greater than or equal to its Downside Threshold Level, you will receive per security $10 plus the Contingent Return of $6.80. However, if the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is less than its Downside Threshold Level, meaning that the Worst Performing Underlying has depreciated by more than 40% from its Initial Level, the payment due at maturity per security will be significantly less than $10 by an amount that is proportionate to the full percentage decline in the level of the Worst Performing Underlying from its Initial Level to its Final Level. Under these circumstances, the Redemption Amount per security will be less than $6 and could be zero. Accordingly, you may lose your entire initial investment in the securities.

Maturity:	Approximately five years
Automatic Redemption:	If, on any Call Observation Date, the closing level of each Underlying is greater than or equal to its respective Call Level, the securities will be automatically redeemed and you will receive the applicable Automatic Redemption Amount on the related Automatic Redemption Date.
Automatic Redemption Amount:	The Automatic Redemption Amount per security will equal $10 plus the Automatic Redemption Premium applicable to that Call Observation Date, as set forth below: · 1st Call Observation Date: $1.36 · 2nd Call Observation Date: $2.72 · 3rd Call Observation Date: $4.08 · 4th Call Observation Date: $5.44 No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed.
Redemption Amount:	If the securities have not previously been redeemed, you will receive at maturity a cash payment per security as follows: ·  If the Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is greater than or equal to its Downside Threshold Level, an amount calculated as follows: $10 + Contingent Return ·  If the Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is less than its Downside Threshold Level, an amount calculated as follows: $10 × Underlying Return of the Worst Performing Underlying If the Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is less than its Downside Threshold Level, investors will be fully exposed to the negative performance of the Worst Performing Underlying and will receive a Redemption Amount that is less than 60% of the stated principal amount of the securities and could be zero. Accordingly, investors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk of losing their entire initial investment.

Key Investment Rationale

The securities do not provide for the regular payment of interest. Instead, if the closing level of each Underlying on any Call Observation Date is greater than or equal to its respective Call Level, for each security you hold you will receive a cash payment equal to $10 plus the Automatic Redemption Premium applicable to such Call Observation Date.

The following scenarios are for illustrative purposes only to demonstrate how an Automatic Redemption Amount or the Redemption Amount (if the securities have not previously been redeemed) is calculated, and do not attempt to demonstrate every situation that may occur. Accordingly, the securities may or may not be redeemed prior to maturity and the Redemption Amount may be less than $10 and may be zero.

Scenario 1: The securities are automatically redeemed prior to maturity	When each Underlying closes at or above its respective Call Level on any Call Observation Dates, the securities will be automatically redeemed for a cash payment equal to $10 plus the Automatic Redemption Premium applicable to such Call Observation Date.  Investors do not participate in any appreciation of any Underlying.
Scenario 2: The securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity, and investors receive a fixed positive return at maturity	This scenario assumes that each Underlying closes below its respective Call Level on each Call Observation Date.  Consequently, the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity.  On the Valuation Date, the Worst Performing Underlying closes at or above its Downside Threshold Level.  At maturity, investors will receive a cash payment equal to $10 plus the Contingent Return of $6.80.
Scenario 3: The securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity, and investors suffer a substantial loss of principal at maturity	This scenario assumes that each Underlying closes below its respective Call Level on each Call Observation Date.  Consequently, the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity.  On the Valuation Date, the Worst Performing Underlying closes below its Downside Threshold Level.  At maturity, investors will receive an amount equal to $10 multiplied by the Underlying Return of the Worst Performing Underlying.  Under these circumstances, the Redemption Amount will be significantly less than $10 and could be zero.

Hypothetical Examples

The following hypothetical examples are for illustrative purposes only. Whether the securities are redeemed prior to maturity will be determined by reference to the closing level of each Underlying on each Call Observation Date, and the Redemption Amount will be determined by reference to the closing level of the Worst Performing Underlying on the Valuation Date. The actual Initial Levels, Downside Threshold Levels, Call Levels, Automatic Redemption Amounts and Contingent Return are set forth in “Key Terms” herein. Some numbers appearing in the examples below have been rounded for ease of analysis. All payments on the securities are subject to our credit risk. The below examples are based on the following terms:

Hypothetical Worst Performing Underlying:	Class A common stock of Facebook, Inc.
Hypothetical Initial Level of the Worst Performing Underlying:	$100
Hypothetical Downside Threshold Level of the Worst Performing Underlying:	$60, which is 60% of its hypothetical Initial Level
Automatic Redemption Payment:	The Automatic Redemption Amount per security will equal $10 plus the Automatic Redemption Premium applicable to each Call Observation Date, as set forth below: · 1st Call Observation Date: $1.36 · 2nd Call Observation Date: $2.72 · 3rd Call Observation Date: $4.08 · 4th Call Observation Date: $5.44 No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed.
Contingent Return:	$6.80
Redemption Amount:	If the securities have not previously been redeemed, you will receive at maturity a cash payment per security as follows: ·  If the Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is greater than or equal to its Downside Threshold Level, an amount calculated as follows: $10 + the Contingent Return ·  If the Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is less than its Downside Threshold Level, an amount calculated as follows: $10 × Underlying Return of the Worst Performing Underlying Under these circumstances, you will lose a significant portion or all of your investment.
Stated Principal Amount:	$10

Automatic Redemption Amount:

Table 1 — A Call Event Occurs on a Call Observation Date

Date	Payment (per Security)
1st Call Observation Date	$11.36
2nd Call Observation Date	$12.72
3rd Call Observation Date	$14.08
4th  Call Observation Date	$15.44

If a Call Event occurs on a Call Observation Date, investors will receive an amount on the related Automatic Redemption Date corresponding to $10 plus the Automatic Redemption Premium applicable to such Automatic Redemption Date. No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed, and investors do not participate in any appreciation of any Underlying.

Redemption Amount

In the following examples, the closing level of each Underlying on each Call Observation Date is less than its respective Call Level, and, consequently, the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to, and remain outstanding until, maturity.

Example 1 — The Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is at or above its Downside Threshold Level

Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying	Redemption Amount (per Security)
$80	$10 + $6.80 = $16.80

In this example, the closing level of each Underlying is below its respective Initial Level on each Call Observation Date, and therefore the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity. The Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is greater than or equal to its Downside Threshold Level. At maturity, investors receive $16.80 per security, corresponding to $10 plus the Contingent Return of $6.80. However, investors do not participate in any appreciation of any Underlying over the term of the securities.

Example 2 — The Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is below its Downside Threshold Level

Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying	Redemption Amount (per Security)
$50	$10 × 0.50 = $5

In this example, the closing level of each Underlying is below its respective Initial Level on each Call Observation Date, and therefore the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity. The Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is below its Downside Threshold Level, and accordingly, investors are fully exposed to the negative performance of the Worst Performing Underlying over the term of the securities, and will receive a Redemption Amount that is significantly less than the stated principal amount of the securities. The Redemption Amount is $5 per security, representing a loss of 50% on your investment.

Selected Risk Considerations

This section describes the material risks relating to the securities. For a complete list of risk factors, please see any accompanying product supplement, the prospectus and prospectus supplement. Investors should consult their financial and legal advisers as to the risks entailed by an investment in the securities and the appropriateness of the securities in light of their particular circumstances.

Risks Relating to the Securities Generally

§ The securities do not guarantee the return of any principal. The terms of the securities differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that the securities do not guarantee the payment of regular interest or the return of any of the principal amount at maturity. Instead, if the securities have not automatically been redeemed prior to maturity and the Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is less than its Downside Threshold Level, you will be fully exposed to the decline in the level of the Worst Performing Underlying over the term of the securities, and you will receive for each security that you hold at maturity an amount of cash that is significantly less than the Principal Amount, in proportion to the decline in the level of the Worst Performing Underlying from its Initial Level to its Final Level. Under this scenario, the value of any such payment will be less than 60% of the Principal Amount and could be zero. You may lose up to your entire initial investment in the securities. Any payment on the securities is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.

§ Regardless of the amount of any payment you receive on the securities, your actual yield may be different in real value terms. Inflation may cause the real value of any payment you receive on the securities to be less at maturity than it is at the time you invest. An investment in the securities also represents a forgone opportunity to invest in an alternative asset that generates a higher real return. You should carefully consider whether an investment that may result in a return that is lower than the return on alternative investments is appropriate for you.

§ The probability that the Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying will be less than its Downside Threshold Level will depend on the volatility of such Underlying. “Volatility” refers to the frequency and magnitude of changes in the level of an Underlying. The greater the expected volatility with respect to an Underlying on the Trade Date, the higher the expectation as of the Trade Date that the Final Level of such Underlying could be less than its Downside Threshold Level, indicating a higher expected risk of loss on the securities. The terms of the securities are set, in part, based on expectations about the volatility of the Underlyings as of the Trade Date. The volatility of any Underlying can change significantly over the term of the securities. The levels of any 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 Underlyings and the potential to lose a significant amount of your principal at maturity.

§ The securities do not pay interest. 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 Redemption Amount at maturity is based on the performance of the Underlyings. Because the Redemption Amount due 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.

§ Limited appreciation potential. If a Call Event occurs or the Final Level of every Underlying is greater than or equal to its respective Downside Threshold Level, the appreciation potential of the securities will be limited to (i) the Automatic Redemption Premium applicable to the relevant Call Observation Date or (ii) the Contingent Return, as set forth in “Key Terms” herein, regardless of any appreciation in the Underlying, which may be significant. Any payment on the securities is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.

§ The securities are subject to a potential Automatic Redemption, which exposes you to reinvestment risk. The securities are subject to a potential Automatic Redemption. If the securities are automatically redeemed prior to the Maturity Date, you may be unable to invest in other securities with a similar level of risk that provide you with the opportunity to be paid the same coupons as the securities.

§ The U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the securities are unclear. 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

October 2021 Page 10

 

Auto-Callable Securities due October 29, 2026

Based on the Performance of the Worst Performing of Four Underlyings
Principal at Risk Securities

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 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.

Risks Relating to the Underlyings

§ You will be subject to risks relating to the relationship between the Underlyings. The securities are linked to the individual performance of each Underlying. As such, the securities will perform poorly if only one of the Underlyings performs poorly. For example, if one Underlying appreciates from its Initial Level to its Final Level, but the Final Level of the Worst Performing Underlying is less than its Downside Threshold Level, you will be exposed to the depreciation of the Worst Performing Underlying and you will not benefit from the performance of any other Underlying. Each additional Underlying to which the securities are linked increases the risk that the securities will perform poorly. By investing in the securities, you assume the risk that the Final Level of at least one of the Underlyings will be less than its Downside Threshold Level, regardless of the performance of any other Underlying.

It is impossible to predict the relationship between the Underlyings. If the performances of the Underlyings exhibit no relationship to each other, it is more likely that one of the Underlyings will cause the securities to perform poorly. However, if the Reference Share Issuers’ businesses tend to be related such that the performances of the Underlyings are correlated, then there is less likelihood that only one Underlying will cause the securities to perform poorly. Furthermore, to the extent that each Underlying represents a different market segment or market sector, the risk of one Underlying performing poorly is greater. As a result, you are not only taking market risk on each Reference Share Issuer and its businesses, you are also taking a risk relating to the relationship between each Reference Share Issuer and Underlying to others.

§ No affiliation with the Reference Share Issuers. We are not affiliated with the Reference Share Issuers. You should make your own investigation into the Underlyings and the Reference Share Issuers. In connection with the offering of the securities, 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 Issuers.

§ No ownership rights in the Underlyings. Your return on the securities will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned shares of the Underlyings. The return on your investment is not the same as the total return based on a purchase of shares of the Underlyings. For example, as a holder of the securities, you will not have any ownership interest or rights in the Underlyings, such as voting rights or dividend payments. In addition, the issuer of the Underlyings will not have any obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the securities in taking any corporate action that might affect the value of the Underlyings and therefore, the value of the securities.

§ Anti-dilution protection is limited. The calculation agent will make anti-dilution adjustments for certain events affecting the Underlyings. However, an adjustment will not be required in response to all events that could affect the Underlyings. 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 securities may be materially and adversely affected. See “Description of the Securities—Adjustments” in the relevant product supplement.

§ Government regulatory action, including legislative acts and executive orders, could result in material changes to the Underlyings and could negatively affect your return on the securities. Government regulatory action, including legislative acts and executive orders, could materially affect the Underlyings. For example, in response to recent executive orders, stocks of companies that are determined to be linked to the People’s Republic of China military, intelligence and security apparatus may be delisted from a U.S. exchange, removed as a component in indices or exchange traded funds, or transactions in, or holdings of, securities with exposure to such stocks may otherwise become prohibited under U.S. law. If government regulatory action results in such consequences, there may be a material and negative effect on the securities.

Risks Relating to the Issuer

§ The securities are subject to the credit risk of Credit Suisse. Investors are dependent on our ability to pay all amounts due on the securities and, therefore, if we were to default on our obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the securities. In addition, any decline in our credit ratings, any adverse changes in the market’s view of our creditworthiness or any increase in our credit spreads is likely to adversely affect the value of the securities prior to maturity.

§ Credit Suisse is subject to Swiss regulation. As a Swiss bank, Credit Suisse is subject to regulation by governmental agencies, supervisory authorities and self-regulatory organizations in Switzerland. Such regulation is increasingly more extensive and complex and subjects Credit Suisse to risks. For example, pursuant to Swiss banking laws, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) may open resolution proceedings if there are justified concerns that Credit Suisse is over-indebted, has serious liquidity problems or no longer fulfills capital adequacy requirements. FINMA has broad powers and discretion in the case of resolution proceedings, which include the power to convert debt instruments and other liabilities of Credit Suisse into equity and/or cancel such liabilities in whole or in part. If one or more of these measures were imposed, such measures may adversely affect the terms and market value of the securities and/or the ability of Credit Suisse to make payments thereunder and you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the securities.

Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest

§ Hedging and trading activity. We, any dealer or any of our or their respective affiliates may carry out hedging activities related to the securities, including in the Underlyings or instruments related to the Underlyings. We, any dealer or our or their respective affiliates may also trade in the Underlyings or instruments related to the Underlyings 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.

§ Potential conflicts. We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the securities, including acting as calculation agent and as agent of the issuer for the offering of the securities, hedging our obligations under the securities 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. For instance, as calculation agent, Credit Suisse International will determine the Initial Level, the Downside Threshold Level and the Call Level for each Underlying and the Redemption Amount, if any. Moreover, certain determinations made by Credit Suisse International, in its capacity as calculation agent, may require it to exercise discretion and make subjective judgments, such as with respect to the occurrence or non-occurrence of market disruption events and the selection of a successor underlying or calculation of the closing level in the event of a market disruption event or discontinuance of an Underlying. These potentially subjective determinations may adversely affect the payout to you at maturity, if any. In addition, hedging activities by us or our affiliates on or prior to the Trade Date could potentially increase the Initial Levels of the Underlyings, and therefore, could increase the Downside Threshold Levels, which are the respective levels at or above which each Underlying must close in order for you to receive the Contingent Return and so that you are not exposed to the negative performance of the Worst Performing Underlying on the Valuation Date, and Call Levels, which are the respective levels at or above which each Underlying must close in order for you to receive the Automatic Redemption Amount applicable to an Automatic Redemption Date. 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.

We and/or our affiliates may also currently or from time to time engage in business with the Reference Share Issuers, including extending loans to, or making equity investments in, the Reference Share Issuers or providing advisory services to the Reference Share Issuers. In addition, one or more of our affiliates may publish research reports or otherwise express opinions with respect to the Reference Share Issuers and these reports may or may not recommend that investors buy or hold shares of the Underlyings. As a prospective purchaser of the securities, you should undertake an independent investigation of the Reference Share Issuers that in your judgment is appropriate to make an informed decision with respect to an investment in the securities.

Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Securities

§ Unpredictable economic and market factors will affect the value of the securities. 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 any Underlying, the terms of the securities at issuance

October 2021 Page 12

 

Auto-Callable Securities due October 29, 2026

Based on the Performance of the Worst Performing of Four Underlyings
Principal at Risk Securities

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 Underlyings;

o       the expected and actual correlation, if any, between the Underlyings;

o       the time to maturity of the securities;

o        the dividend rate on the Underlyings;

o       interest and yield rates in the market generally;

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

o       events affecting companies engaged in the respective industries of the Reference Share Issuers;

o       geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory, judicial or other events that affect the Reference Share Issuers or markets generally and which may affect the levels of the Underlyings; 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.

§ The estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date is less than the Price to 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 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). The costs included in the original Price to Public of the securities will include a fee paid to LFT Securities, LLC, an entity in which an affiliate of MSSB has an ownership interest, for providing certain electronic platform services with respect to this offering. MSSB is acting as a dealer in connection with the distribution of the securities. 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 proprietary pricing models dependent on inputs such as volatility, correlation, dividend rates, interest rates and other factors, including assumptions about future market events and/or environments. These inputs may be market-observable or may be based on assumptions made by us in our discretionary judgment. 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.

§ Effect of interest rate in structuring the securities. 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

October 2021 Page 13

 

Auto-Callable Securities due October 29, 2026

Based on the Performance of the Worst Performing of Four Underlyings
Principal at Risk Securities

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.

§ Secondary market prices. 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, the related inputs and other factors, including our internal funding rate, customary bid and ask spreads and other transaction costs, changes in market conditions and deterioration or improvement in our creditworthiness. In circumstances where our internal funding rate is higher than our secondary market credit spreads, our secondary market bid for your securities could be less favorable than what other dealers might bid because, assuming all else equal, we use the higher internal funding rate to price the securities and other dealers might use the lower 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, which may include discounts and commissions 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 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 liquidity. The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Credit Suisse (or its affiliates) intends to offer to purchase the securities in the secondary market but is not required to do so. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the securities when you wish to do so. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the securities, the price at which you may be able to trade your securities is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which Credit Suisse (or its affiliates) is willing to buy the securities. If you have to sell your securities prior to maturity, you may not be able to do so or you may have to sell them at a substantial loss.

Supplemental Use of Proceeds and Hedging

We intend to use the proceeds of this offering for our general corporate purposes, which may include the refinancing of existing debt outside Switzerland. Some or all of the proceeds we receive from the sale of the securities may be used in connection with hedging our obligations under the securities through one or more of our affiliates. Such hedging or trading activities on or prior to the Trade Date and during the term of the securities (including on any calculation date, as defined in any accompanying product supplement) could adversely affect the value of the Underlyings 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.

United States Federal Tax Considerations

This discussion supplements and, to the extent inconsistent therewith, supersedes the discussion in the accompanying product supplement under “United States Federal Tax Considerations.”

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, which is based on current market conditions, a security 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.

Assuming this treatment of the securities is respected and subject to the discussion in “United States Federal 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.

Non-U.S. Holders. Subject to the discussions in the next paragraph and in “United States Federal Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders” and “United States Federal Tax Considerations—FATCA” 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 “United States Federal Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders—Dividend Equivalents under Section 871(m) of the Code” 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 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 your other transactions. 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.

Supplemental Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)

Under the terms and subject to the conditions contained in a distribution agreement dated May 7, 2007, as amended, which we refer to as the distribution agreement, we have agreed to sell the securities to CSSU. The distribution agreement provides that CSSU is obligated to purchase all of the securities if any are purchased.

CSSU will offer the securities at the offering price set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement and will receive discounts and commissions of $0.06 per $10.00 principal amount of securities. MSSB and its financial advisors will collectively receive from CSSU discounts and commissions of $0.06 for each security they sell, of which $0.01 per $10.00 principal amount of securities reflects a structuring fee. CSSU may re-allow some or all of the discount on the principal amount per security on sales of such securities by other brokers or dealers. If all of the securities are not sold at the initial offering price, CSSU may change the public offering price and other selling terms.

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

We expect to deliver the securities against payment for the securities on the Settlement Date indicated herein, which may be a date that is greater than two business days following the Trade Date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, if the Settlement Date is more than two business days after the Trade Date, purchasers who wish to transact in the securities more than two business days prior to the Settlement Date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

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

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

Validity of the Securities

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) concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability (including, without limitation, concepts of good faith, fair dealing and the lack of bad faith) and (iii) possible judicial or regulatory actions giving effect to governmental actions or foreign laws affecting creditors’ rights, 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 August 4, 2021 and filed by Credit Suisse as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 6-K on August 4, 2021. 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 August 4, 2021, which was filed by Credit Suisse as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 6-K on August 4, 2021. 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.
