HSBC to price knock-out buffer notes linked to S&P 500 via JPMorgan

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Feb. 24 - HSBC USA Inc. plans to price 0% knock-out buffer notes due Aug. 30, 2011 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to an FWP filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the index closes below 80% of its initial level on any day during the life of the notes, the payout at maturity will be par plus the index return, which could be positive or negative. Otherwise, the payout will be par plus the greater of the index return and 10.4%.

In each case, the payout will be subject to a maximum return of 30%.

The notes are expected to price Feb. 26 and settle March 3.

J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. is the agent.
