New Issue: RBC prices $2.2 million contingent income callable notes on Microsoft

By Marisa Wong

Morgantown, W.Va., March 29 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $2.2 million of contingent income callable securities due March 29, 2018 linked to Microsoft Corp. shares, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 9% if Microsoft shares close at or above the coupon barrier, 70% of the initial price, on the determination date for that quarter.

The notes are callable at par on any quarterly review date.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon unless the stock finishes below the 75% trigger price, in which case investors will receive a number of shares of Microsoft stock equal to $1,000 divided by the initial share price.

RBC Capital Markets, LLC is the agent.
