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. 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. Coupon payments on the ETNs will vary and could be zero. Variable monthly coupon payments 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.
