New Issue: Barclays prices $26.62 million contingent income autocallables on Transocean

By Jennifer Chiou

New York, April 3 - Barclays Bank plc priced $26,619,380 of contingent income autocallable securities due April 4, 2016 linked to the common stock of Transocean Ltd., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If Transocean stock closes at or above the downside threshold level - 70% of the initial share price - on a quarterly determination date, investors will receive a contingent payment of $0.269 for each $10.00 note. Otherwise, no contingent payment will be made for that period.

If the stock closes at or above the initial share price on any of the first 11 quarterly determination dates, the notes will be redeemed at par plus the contingent payment.

If the notes are not called and the final share price is greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent payment. If the final share price is less than the downside threshold level, the payout will be a number of Transocean shares equal to the principal amount of notes divided by the initial share price or, at Barclays' option, the cash value of those shares.

Barclays is the agent with Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC as dealer.
