NEW YORK, April 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- On
April 11, 2014, the Credit Suisse
NASDAQ Gold FLOWS 103 Index and the Credit Suisse NASDAQ Silver
FLOWS 106 Index (the "Indices") concluded the notional sale of
options on GLD shares and SLV shares with May expiration. We
expect that the notional cash distribution generated by this sale
of options will be withdrawn from the Indices on May 12, 2014, subject to adjustment in the event
of any market disruption events.
Assuming no redemption or acceleration of the ETNs and that the
notional cash distribution is withdrawn from the Indices on
May 12, 2014, we expect to declare a
coupon of $0.0939 per ETN on the GLDI
ETNs and a coupon of $0.1328 per ETN
on the SLVO ETNs for payment on or around May 27, 2014, payable to the holder of record on
May 21, 2014. The expected coupon
payment may be subject to change upon the occurrence of a
disruption event or other unforeseen circumstances. The expected
coupon payments represent an indicative yield of approximately
7.89% per annum on the GLDI ETN and an indicative yield of
approximately 10.24% per annum on the SLVO ETN. The
"indicative yield" equals the expected coupon payment annualized
and divided by the closing indicative value of the applicable ETN
on April 11, 2014.
The ETNs may not be suitable for all investors and should be
purchased only by knowledgeable investors who understand the
potential consequences of investing in the ETNs. The ETNs are
subject to the credit risk of Credit Suisse AG. You may receive
less, and possibly significantly less, than the principal amount of
your investment at maturity or upon repurchase or sale. The ETNs
are not linked to, and investors have no rights to any physical
commodity. Monthly coupon payments on the ETNs will vary and could
be zero. Variable monthly coupons are generated from selling
covered calls, which limits upside participation. There is no
actual portfolio of assets in which any investor in the ETNs has
any ownership or other interest. An investment in the ETNs
involves significant risks. For further information regarding
risks, please see the section entitled "Risk Factors" in the
applicable pricing supplement.
