New Issue: Barclays prices $3.54 million notes linked to return enhanced indexes

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., May 12 – Barclays Bank plc priced $3.54 million of 0% notes due Sept. 13, 2016 linked to a weighted basket of capped return enhanced components, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The basket includes the Euro Stoxx 50 index with a 58% weight, the FTSE 100 index with a 21% weight and the Topix index with a 21% weight

The payout at maturity will be par plus the basket return, which will equal the sum of the weighted component returns of the basket indexes.

If an index's final level is greater than its initial level, its component return will be double its index return, subject to a maximum return of 27.8% for each index. If an index’s final level is less than or equal to its initial level, its component return will be equal to its index return.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA are the agents.
