By Jennifer Chiou

New York, Oct. 15 - Goldman, Sachs & Co. priced a $66 million offering of excess return notes due Dec. 9, 2009 linked to the S&P GSCI ER index for AB Svensk Exportkredit, according to an FWP filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest equals Libor minus 27 basis points. Interest is paid and reset quarterly.

The payout at maturity will be par plus triple the sum of any positive or negative return on the index minus a 20 bps annual fee.

If on any trading day the index declines by more than 22%, the notes are redeemable and the redemption amount will be calculated in the same manner as the payout at maturity.
