By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., May 18 - Barclays Bank plc priced an additional $10 million of 9% reverse convertible notes due Feb. 25, 2011 linked to the common stock of JPMorgan Chase & Co., according to a 424B3 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes bring the issue size to $12.5 million. The original $2.5 million of notes priced Feb. 23.
