By Susanna Moon

Chicago, May 1 – Barclays Bank plc priced $14.29 million of trigger phoenix autocallable optimization securities due Oct. 31, 2016 linked to Rite Aid 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 11.15% if the stock closes at or above its barrier level, 85% of its initial level, on an observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if the stock closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date.

If the stock finishes at or above its 85% trigger level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon.

Otherwise, investors will be exposed to any losses.
