By Jennifer Chiou

New York, March 20 - Barclays Bank plc priced a $1.35 million issue of 0% semiannual review notes due March 26, 2010 linked to the S&P index via agents JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will be automatically called at increasing premiums if the index shows a positive return on the annual review dates. For each $1,000 principal amount, the redemption amount will be 8.15% if called on March 24, 2008, 12.225% if called on Sept. 23, 2008, 16.3% if called on March 23, 2009, 20.375% if called on Sept. 23, 2009 and 24.45% if called on March 23, 2010.

If the notes are not called, investors will receive par unless the index declines by more than 10%. Investors will lose 1.1111% of the principal amount for every 1% decline in the index beyond 10%.
