New Issue: HSBC prices $10 million trigger phoenix autocallables on S&P 500 index

By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., June 28 - HSBC USA Inc. priced $10 million of trigger phoenix autocallable optimization securities due June 30, 2016 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the index closes at or above the coupon barrier level, 67% of the initial level, on a quarterly observation date, the notes will pay an annualized contingent coupon of 5% that quarter. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid that quarter.

The notes will be automatically called at par plus the contingent coupon if the index closes at or above its initial level on any observation date beginning June 26, 2014.

If the notes are not called, the payout at maturity will be par unless the final index level is less than the 67% trigger level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the index's decline from the initial level.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. and UBS Financial Services Inc. are the agents.
