Seattle, Sept. 24 - Goldman, Sachs & Co. priced an additional $7.11 million of 0% enhanced outperformance notes due Oct. 27, 2008 linked to the S&P Consumer Staples Select Sector index and a basket of stocks for issuer AB Svensk Exportkredit, according to an FWP filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The company originally priced $23.02 million of the notes on Sept. 13. The total amount of notes priced is now $30.13 million.
