Magazine Awards 2008  Underlyings: The securities can be linked to underlyings that span the globe and include many asset classes:   Indices   Baskets   Single Stocks   Commodities   Foreign Exchange Rates   Interest Rates Overview BARES^SM have a buffer, which allows the investor to gain some degree of  principal protection and leveraged upside participation. These securities are attractive for investors who are willing to accept some downside risk in return for shorter maturities or leveraged upside as compared to fully principal protected notes. While the securities are not principal protected, the buffer decreases total downside risk. BARES should be treated as capital securities for tax purposes. Upside BARES provide leveraged upside exposure. Downside Although the securities are not a principal protected investment and a decline  in the underlying could result in a loss of principal, total downside risk is decreased due to the downside buffer. Risks Principal Risk – The securities are not principal protected, which means  investors should be able to risk downside loss. Liquidity and Market Risk – The securities will not be listed on any stock  exchange. BARES are intended for investors who plan to hold the securities until maturity. Holders choosing to sell the securities prior to maturity may receive an amount less than the amount such holder would have received if the BARES were held to maturity. Credit Suisse intends to maintain a secondary market in the securities, although it is not required to do so and may stop making a market at any time. Credit Risk – Investors are assuming the credit risk of the issuer. No Dividends – Investors do not receive the dividends associated with  owning the underlying directly.

		Customization
		There are many different ways to structure BARES in addition to choosing among a variety of underlyings, an investor can also modify the buffer or maturity. For example, if an investor prefers less participation on the downside, upside leverage can be reduced to decrease downside exposure. Conversely, a higher degree of upside participation can be structured, as well as longer and shorter maturities.
