New Issue: RBC prices $2.99 million 7.57% airbag autocallables tied to Halliburton

By Toni Weeks

San Diego, Oct. 23 - Royal Bank of Canada priced $2.99 million of 7.57% airbag autocallable yield optimization notes due Oct. 25, 2013 linked to the common stock of Halliburton Co., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest is payable monthly.

The notes will be automatically called at par plus accrued interest if Halliburton stock closes at or above the initial share price on a quarterly observation date.
