By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., Feb. 25 - Barclays Bank plc priced $7.5 million of 8.25% single observation autocallable reverse convertible notes due Feb. 26, 2015 linked to Valero Energy Corp. shares, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest will be payable monthly.

The notes will be called at par if Valero shares close at or above the initial share price on any quarter review date.
