att bedriva specificerad tillståndspliktig investeringsverksamhet.<br />

Emittenten är ett bolag med obegränsat ägaransvar och därmed har dess aktieägare har ett<br />

solidariskt och individuellt obegränsat skyldighet att avhjälpa varje brist avseende Emittentens<br />

tillgångar vid händelse av Emittentens likvidation. Aktieägarnas solidariska och individuella<br />

obegränsade ansvar för täckande av brist i Emittentens tillgångar uppkommer endast vid<br />

Emittentens likvidation. Följaktligen kan Obligationsinnehavarna före Emittentens likvidation<br />

endast förlita sig till Emittentens tillgångar och inte på aktieägarnas tillgångar. Dess aktieägare är<br />

<strong>Credit</strong> <strong>Suisse</strong> Group, <strong>Credit</strong> <strong>Suisse</strong> och <strong>Credit</strong> <strong>Suisse</strong> (<strong>International</strong>) Holding AG.<br />

verksamhetsändamålet för Emittenten är att tillhandahålla omfattande finans- och<br />

riskhanteringstjänster avseende derivatprodukter över hela världen. Emittenten har etablerat en<br />

betydande närvaro på den globala derivatmarknaden genom att erbjuda en komplett skala av<br />

derivatprodukter och fortsätter att utveckla nya produkter efter kundernas behov och efter<br />

Beskrivning av Obligationerna<br />

Obligationerna är nollkupongsobligationer, denominerade i svenska kronor,<br />

kapitalbeloppsbestämda, aktieindexrelaterade och emitterade av Emittenten den 13 februari 2007<br />

samt förfaller till betalning i maj 2010. Nominellt belopp per Obligation är SEK 10 000 och det<br />

sammanlagda nominella beloppet är SEK 500 000 000. Emissionskursen är 110% av det<br />

nominella beloppet. Avkastningen, utöver nominellt belopp, som betalas till investeraren på<br />

förfallodagen är kopplad till utvecklingen av en korg bestående av två Index; CECE Composite<br />

EUR Index (”Index 1”) och Russian Depositary Receipts Index (”Index 2”) (var och en benämnt<br />

”Index” och tillsammans benämnda ”Indexen”.<br />

Obligationerna kan endast bli inlösta i förtid efter avtalsbrott av Emittenten, efter införande av<br />

brittisk källskatt på betalningar avseende Obligationerna eller Emittentens betalningsförpliktelser<br />

eller dess hedgingarrangemang skulle vara eller bli olagliga.<br />

Ansökan om att inregistrera Obligationerna på Stockholmsbörsen kommer att göras.<br />

Avkastning på förfallodagen<br />

När Obligationerna förfaller till betalning maj 2010 kommer investerarna erhålla (i) 100% av det<br />

nominella beloppet samt (ii) en avkastning beräknad som nominellt belopp multiplicerat med det<br />

större av noll och ”Korgavkastningen” enligt vad som anges nedan, multiplicerad med 100<br />

procent (sådan procentsats är indikativ och bestäms utifrån marknadsförhållandena på den Initiala<br />

Fastställelsedagen, med förbehåll att den lägst kommer vara 100 procent).<br />

Om Korgavkastningen är noll eller negativ kommer investerare endast erhålla 100 procent av<br />

nominellt belopp på förfallodagen.<br />

Korgavkastningen beräknas enligt följande:<br />

(i) ”Indexavkastningen” för varje Index beräknas som den procentuella förändringen<br />

avseende indexnivån för Index på den Initiala Fastställelsedagen och den Slutliga<br />

Indexnivån. Den ”Slutliga Indexnivån” beräknas som genomsnittet av Index<br />

indexnivåer vid var och en av Genomsnittsdagarna.<br />

(ii) Indexavkastningen för varje Index multipliceras sedan med Indexviktning för<br />

relevant Index. De slutliga siffrorna adderas sedan och utgör tillsammans<br />

Korgavkastningen.<br />

”Genomsnittsdag” betyder den 2:a kalenderdagen i varje månad med början den 2 maj 2009 till<br />

och med 2 maj 2010 (totalt 13 Genomsnittsdagar).<br />

”Indexviktning” betyder, avseende CECE Composite EUR Index, 75 procent, avseende Russian<br />

Depositary Receipts Index, 25 procent.<br />

”Inital Fastsällelsedag” betyder 2 maj 2007.<br />

Observera att de fullständiga villkoren som återfinns i Värdepappersnoten innehåller<br />

bestämmelser angående vilka dagar som inte räknas som bankdagar, avbrott och justeringar, vilka<br />

kan påverka varje Indexet och nivåer på Indexet samt avseende tidpunkter för beräkningar och<br />

betalning i enlighet med Obligationerna..<br />

De fullständiga villkoren för Obligationerna framgår av Värdepappersnoten avseende<br />

Obligationerna, vilken finns tillgänglig i betalningsombudens (Paying Agents) lokaler.<br />

Erbjudande<br />

HQ Bankaktiebolag (”HQ”) har samtyckt till att köpa från Emittenten och Emittenten har samtyckt<br />

till att sälja, alla eller vissa av Obligationerna, till HQ. HQ har informerat Emittenten att de och<br />

vissa Underdistributörer (Länsförsäkringar Bank, Sparbanken Gripen AB (publ) och Sparbanken<br />

Finn) har för avsikt att i eget namn erbjuda Obligationerna till allmänheten i Sverige. Varken<br />

Emittenten eller Dealern har något ansvar för ett sådana erbjudanden.<br />

Erbjudandeperioden är mellan 19 februari 2007till 13 april 2007. Erbjudandeperioden kan komma<br />

att bli avbruten när som helst. Det högsta nominella beloppet på erbjudandet är SEK 500 000 000.<br />

Erbjudandepriset kommer att vara 110% av det nominella beloppet.<br />

Köp kan göras genom att ge in en köporder vilken kan erhållas från HQ eller relevant<br />

Underdistributör, eller enligt instruktioner från HQ eller relevant Underdistributör. Betalning för<br />

Obligationerna skall vara HQ eller relevant Underdistributör tillhanda på eller omkring 23 april 2007<br />

för att leverans av Obligationerna till köparnas konto skall ske på eller omkring den 4 maj 2007.<br />

HQ eller relevant underdistributör kommer att ta ut courtage av köparna vilket inte kommer<br />

överstiga 3 % av priset på Obligationerna.<br />

HQ förbehåller sig rätten att återkalla erbjudandet om det förvärvade nominella beloppet är mindre<br />

än 50 000 000, eller om HQ, utifrån sitt bästa omdöme, bedömer att några faktorer medför att det<br />

blir olagligt, omöjligt eller icke praktiskt att fullfölja erbjudandet, antingen i sin helhet eller till viss<br />

del, eller om marknadsförhållandena har påverkats på ett väsentligt negativt sätt. Vid ett eventuellt<br />

återkallande kommer HQ eller relevant Underdistributör återbetala, av köparen erlagt, förvärvspris<br />

samt courtage utan ränta.<br />

Riskfaktorer<br />

Villkoren för Obligationerna anger att det belopp som skall betalas till investeraren vid<br />

förfallodagen kommer att vara beroende av utvecklingen av Indexen och frånvaron av<br />

Jurisdictional Events. Beloppet som betalas vid förfallodagen (men inte vid förtida inlösen) kommer<br />

att uppgå till minst 100 % av nominellt belopp, vilket är mindre än emissionskursen.<br />

En investering i Obligationerna är inte detsamma som en investering i enskild eller samtliga aktier<br />

eller depositions kvitto som omfattas av Indexen eller en investering som är direkt knuten till dessa<br />

Index. Framförallt kommer investerarna inte få ta del av utdelningar.<br />

Nivåerna på Indexen kan gå ner likväl som upp under Obligationernas löptid. Dessutom behöver<br />

inte nivån på Indexen en specifik dag spegla Indexens tidigare eller framtida utveckling. Det finns<br />

inga garantier avseende Indexets framtida utveckling. Därför bör eventuella investerare noggrant<br />

överväga huruvida en investering som baseras på utvecklingen av Indexen är lämplig för dem.<br />

Obligationerna innefattar komplexa risker vilka bland annat inkluderar aktiekursrisker, kreditrisker,<br />

valutakursrisker, ränterisker och/eller politiska risker.<br />

Det är inte möjligt att förutse kursen till vilken Obligationerna kommer att handlas på marknaden<br />

eller om en sådan marknad kommer att vara likvid eller illikvid. Emittenten kan, men är inte skyldig<br />

A07402813/1.0/08 Feb 2007<br />

att, köpa Obligationer vid vilken tidpunkt som helst till vilket pris som helst på den öppna<br />

marknaden eller genom erbjudande eller privat överenskommelse. Varje Obligation som köpts på<br />

det viset får behållas eller vidaresäljas eller överlämnas för annullering. Marknaden för<br />

Obligationer kan vara begränsad. Det enda sättet på vilket en innehavare kan realisera värdet från<br />

en Obligation innan Förfallodagen är att sälja den till då rådande marknadspris, vilket kan vara<br />

lägre än det belopp som inledningsvis investerades.<br />

Kursfluktuationer på aktierna eller depåbevisen som omfattas av Indexen och på Indexnivåerna<br />

kan komma att påverka värdet på Obligationerna.<br />

Beloppet som skall betalas och som är hänförligt till att Russian Depository Receipt Index finns<br />

med i korgen kan minska om värdet på intäkterna för Emittentens hedgingarrangemang i<br />

förhållande till detta Index är reducerat på grund av olika orsaker (beskrivet som Jurisdictional<br />

Events) relaterade till risker med den ryska federationen eller handel eller publicering av priser<br />

avseende underliggande aktier och andra värdepapper som ingår i det ryska Indexet.<br />

Följaktligen är en investering i Obligationerna endast lämplig för investerare som (antingen<br />

ensamma eller tillsammans med en lämplig finansiell rådgivare) klarar av att utvärdera värdet och<br />

riskerna med en sådan investering och vilka har tillräckliga resurser för att kunna bära varje förlust<br />

som kan bli följden därav.<br />

Nivån och grunden för beskattning av Obligationerna samt lättnader i beskattningen kan förändras<br />

när som helst. Värdet av lättnader i beskattningen beror på en investerares individuella<br />

förhållanden. Beskattningen och den näringsrättsliga behandlingen av Obligationerna kan ändras<br />

under Obligationernas löptid. Detta kan medföra negativa konsekvenser för investerare.<br />

Innan eventuella investerare gör ett investeringsbeslut med avseende på obligationerna bör<br />

dessa konsultera sina egna finansiella, skatte- eller andra rådgivare i den omfattning de<br />

finner det nödvändigt och noggrant gå igenom och överväga ett sådant investeringsbeslut<br />

mot bakgrund av det ovanstående och deras personliga förhållanden.<br />

Risk Factors<br />

The general risk management policy of the Issuer is consistent with the equivalent functions of other <strong>Credit</strong><br />

<strong>Suisse</strong> Group entities. The process is designed to ensure that there are sufficient independent controls to<br />

assess, monitor and control risks in accordance with the Issuer’s control strategy and in consideration of<br />

industry best practices.<br />

The Issuer believes that it has effective procedures for assessing and managing the risks associated with<br />

its business activities. The Issuer cannot completely predict all market and other developments and the<br />

Issuer’s risk management cannot fully protect against all types of risks. Unforeseen market and other<br />

developments or unexpected movements or disruption in one or more markets can result in losses, for<br />

example, due to such events as adverse changes in inventory values, a decrease in liquidity of trading<br />

positions, greater earnings volatility or increased credit risk exposure. Such losses could have a material<br />

adverse effect on the Issuer’s results, operations or financial condition.<br />

A description of how the Issuer manages risk together with quantitative information on market risk for the<br />

Issuer’s trading portfolio is set out on pages 69 to 79 of the Issuer’s Annual Report for the year ended<br />

31st December, 2006.<br />

General Information<br />

1. There has been no material adverse change in the prospects of the Issuer since 31st December,<br />

2006.<br />

2. The Issuer is the subject of legal proceedings commenced in August 2004 before the Court of Parma<br />

in Italy by Dr Enrico Bondi, the Extraordinary Administrator, on behalf of Parmalat SpA (in Extraordinary<br />

Administration), relating to an agreement entered into between the Issuer and Parmalat SpA in December<br />

2001. By these proceedings the Extraordinary Administrator seeks to have the said agreement set aside<br />

and demands repayment by the Issuer of approximately EUR 248 million. The proceedings are being<br />

vigorously contested by the Issuer.<br />

The Extraordinary Administrator has also commenced two further actions before the Court of Parma (i)<br />

against the Issuer seeking damages on the basis of allegations that by the 2001 transaction the Issuer<br />

delayed the insolvency of Parmalat Participacoes of Brazil and consequently of Parmalat SpA with the<br />

result that Parmalat's overall deficit increased by about EUR 7.1 billion between January 2002 and the<br />

declaration of its insolvency in December 2003 and (ii) against the Issuer and five other banks seeking<br />

damages on the basis of allegations that by various derivatives transactions in 2003 the Issuer and those<br />

other banks delayed the insolvency of Parmalat SpA with the result that its overall deficit increased by<br />

about EUR 2 billion between July and December 2003. In addition, unquantified claims for damages have<br />

been filed in Italy on behalf of a number of individuals claiming to have suffered loss as a result of the<br />

actions of employees of the Issuer. All these allegations are without foundation and the proceedings will be<br />

vigorously contested by the Issuer.<br />

Proceedings have also been brought in New York by Parmalat investors against various defendants<br />

including the Issuer seeking unquantified damages. The allegations against the Issuer make reference to<br />

the December 2001 transaction. A memorandum of understanding has been entered into between the<br />

Plaintiffs, <strong>Credit</strong> <strong>Suisse</strong> entities (including the issuer) and another defendant (Banca Nazionale del Lavoro),<br />

the result of which is that, subject to final documentation, the <strong>Credit</strong> <strong>Suisse</strong> entities will pay US$25 million<br />

to settle these proceedings without admission of liability. In related cases also brought in New York, claims<br />

have been filed against the Issuer by the trustees of two bankrupt US subsidiaries of Parmalat SpA. These<br />

claims will be vigorously contested.<br />

The Issuer has claimed in the insolvency of Parmalat Participacoes of Brazil in respect of EUR 500 million<br />

of bonds issued by that entity and held by the Issuer. Parmalat Participacoes has made a claim in response<br />

alleging that the debt represented by the bonds has already been paid and asserting that it is therefore<br />

entitled under Brazilian law to twice the amount of the debt claimed by the Issuer. This allegation is without<br />

any foundation and the proceedings will be vigorously contested.<br />

Save as disclosed, the Issuer has not been involved in any governmental, legal or arbitration proceedings<br />

(including any such proceedings which are pending or threatened of which the Issuer is aware), during the<br />

last 12 months which may have, or have had in the recent past, significant effects on the financial position<br />

or profitability of the Issuer or the Issuer and its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Group").<br />

3. No significant change has occurred in the financial position of the Group since 31 st December 2006.<br />
