Goldman Sachs to price equity-linked trigger notes tied to Apple stock

By Toni Weeks

San Diego, July 26 - Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. plans to price 0% equity-linked trigger notes due Aug. 14, 2013 linked to the common stock of Apple Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A trigger event occurs if the stock closes below 80% of its initial price on the determination date, expected to be Aug. 9, 2013.

If a trigger event occurs, the payout at maturity will be par plus the stock return. If a trigger event does not occur, the payout will be par plus the greater of the contingent minimum return of 10.5% and the stock return, subject to a maximum settlement amount of $1,200 per $1,000 principal amount of notes.

The notes (Cusip: 38143U5G2) will price July 27 and settle Aug. 1.

Goldman Sachs & Co. is the underwriter, and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC is the placement agent.
