RBC plans 22% reverse convertibles linked to Monsanto

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Oct. 14 - Royal Bank of Canada plans to price 22% annualized reverse convertible notes due April 30, 2009 linked to the common stock of Monsanto Co., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest will be payable monthly.

If Monsanto stock falls below the knock-in price - 70% of the initial share price - during the life of the notes and finishes below the initial price, the payout at maturity will be a number of Monsanto shares equal to par divided by the initial price, or the cash equivalent, at the issuer's option.

Otherwise, the payout will be par.

The notes will price on Oct. 28 and settle on Oct. 31.

RBC Capital Markets Corp. will be the agent.
