By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., March 30 - Barclays Bank plc priced $1.3 million of notes due April 2, 2014 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest will be payable annually. If the year-over-year change in the index is greater than or equal to zero, the coupon for that year will be 5.5%. Otherwise, the coupon for that year will be 1%.

If the final index level is at least 80% of the initial index level, the payout at maturity will be par. Investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the index declines beyond 20%.
