Goldman Sachs to price leveraged buffered notes linked to MSCI EAFE

By Toni Weeks

San Diego, June 8 - Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. plans to price 0% leveraged buffered index-linked notes tied to the MSCI EAFE index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are expected to mature 24 to 28 months after issue.

If the index return is positive, the payout at maturity will be par plus double the index return, subject to a maximum settlement amount of $1,360 to $1,420 per $1,000 principal amount of notes. The exact maximum settlement amount will be set at pricing.

Investors will receive par if the index declines by up to 15% and will lose 1.1765% for every 1% decline beyond the 15% buffer.

Goldman Sachs & Co. will be the underwriter.
