New Issue: Barclays sells $1.99 million double short leverage notes linked to 10Y Treasury Futures

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Sept. 3 - Barclays Bank plc priced $1.99 million of 0% double short leverage securities due Sept. 6, 2013 linked to the Barclays Capital 10Y Treasury Futures index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The $1.92 million principal amount of notes priced at 103.6.

The notes are putable at any time, and they will be called if the index increases by more than 40%.

The payout at maturity or upon redemption will be par minus 200% of the index return plus an additional amount and minus an investor fee. The notes are not principal protected, so investors will experience a loss if the final index level is greater than the initial level.

The additional amount is equal to the interest accrued on the principal amount at a rate per year equal to overnight Libor, compounded daily.

The investor fee will be zero if the final valuation date occurs in the first year, 0.85% if it occurs in the second year and 1.7% if it occurs in the third year.

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