New Issue: Barclays prices $2.35 million callable contingent coupon notes linked to U.S. Steel
By Angela McDaniels
Tacoma, Wash., Feb. 6 - Barclays Bank plc priced $2.35 million of callable contingent coupon notes due Aug. 7, 2015 linked to the common stock of United States Steel Corp., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Each quarter, the notes will pay a 3.75% coupon (equivalent to 15% per year) if the closing price of U.S. Steel shares is greater than or equal to the barrier price, 60% of the initial share price, on the valuation date for that quarter.
The notes are callable at par plus the contingent coupon, if any, on any interest payment date.
If the notes are not called and the final share price is greater than or equal to the barrier price, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the final share price is less than the initial share price or, at Barclays' option, they will receive a number of U.S. Steel shares equal to $1,000 divided by the initial share price.
Barclays is the agent.
