NEW YORK, Dec. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- On
November 17, 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 December expiration. We
expect that the notional cash distribution generated by this sale
of options will be withdrawn from the Indices on December 15, 2014, subject to adjustment in the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notional cash distribution is withdrawn from the Indices on
December 15, 2014, we expect to
declare a coupon of $0.2317 per ETN
on the GLDI ETNs and a coupon of $0.2054 per ETN on the SLVO ETNs for payment on
or around December 29, 2014, payable
to the holder of record on December 22,
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 22.31% per annum on the GLDI ETN and an
indicative yield of approximately 20.29% 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 December 10,
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.
