Tacoma, Wash., March 30 – Bank of Montreal priced $820,000 of 0% contingent risk absolute return notes due March 31, 2017 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the index return is positive, the payout at maturity will be par plus the index return.
