By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., June 28 - HSBC USA Inc. priced $3.4 million of 0% capped participation notes due Jan. 26, 2011 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes priced at par of $212.40.

The payout at maturity will be a dollar amount equal to 92.79% of the amount by which the final index level exceeds 850, if any. This calculation will result in a loss if the final index level is less than 1,078.90. The payout will be capped at $352.60 per note, which is 166% of par.

If the final index level is less than or equal to 850, investors will receive nothing at maturity.
