By Susanna Moon

Chicago, May 21 - HSBC USA Inc. priced $2.88 million of trigger phoenix autocallable optimization securities due Nov. 21, 2014 linked to Expedia, Inc. shares, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annualized rate of 14% if International Paper stock closes at or above the 70% barrier level on the observation date for that month.

If the shares close at or above the initial price on any monthly observation date after one year, the notes will be called at par of $10 plus the contingent coupon.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon unless International Paper shares finish below the 70% trigger level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses.
