New Issue: Barclays prices $2 million annual reset coupon buffered notes linked to S&P 500

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Jan. 31 - Barclays Bank plc priced $2 million of annual reset coupon buffered notes due Jan. 31, 2017 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest is payable annually and will equal 6.5% if the index's return for that year is positive or zero. Otherwise, the coupon will be the 4% for that year. The index's return will be measured from its level a year earlier.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the final index level is less than 80% of the initial index level, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the index declines below the buffer.

Barclays Capital Inc. is the agent.
