By Angela McDaniels

Seattle, April 23 - Barclays Bank plc priced a $1.5 million issue of reverse convertible notes due Oct. 24, 2007 linked to the common stock of Titanium Metals Corp., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The six-month notes will pay 6.9% for an annualized rate of 13.8%. Interest is payable monthly.
