RBC plans 14.5% reverse convertibles linked to Red Hat

By Angela McDaniels

Seattle, Feb. 9 - Royal Bank of Canada plans to price an offering of 14.5% reverse convertible notes due Feb. 28, 2008 linked to the common stock of Red Hat, Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will price on Feb. 23 and settle on Feb. 28.

Interest will be payable quarterly.

The payout at maturity will be par unless Red Hat stock falls below the barrier price - 80% of the initial share price - during the life of the notes and finishes below the initial share price, in which case the payout will be a number of Red Hat shares equal to $1,000 divided by the initial share price or, at Royal Bank of Canada's option, the equivalent cash value.

RBC Capital Markets Corp. will be the agent for the offering.
