New Issue: Barclays prices $236,000 double short leverage notes on 30Y Treasury Futures via UBS

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., July 28 - Barclays Bank plc priced $236,000 principal amount of 0% double short leverage securities due July 29, 2011 linked to the Barclays Capital 30Y Treasury Futures index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes priced at 102.6 for total proceeds of $242,136.

The notes are putable at any time, subject to a minimum of 1,000 securities, and they will be called if the index increases by more than 35%.

The payout at maturity or upon redemption will be par minus 200% of the index return plus an additional amount equal to the interest accrued on the principal amount at a rate per year equal to overnight Libor, compounded daily. The notes are not principal protected, so investors will experience a loss if the final index level is greater than the initial level.

UBS Financial Services Inc. and Barclays Capital Inc. are the underwriters.
