By Toni Weeks

San Diego, Nov. 14 - Barclays Bank plc priced $555,000 of trigger phoenix autocallable optimization securities due Nov. 15, 2013 linked to the common stock of HCA Holdings, Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the price of HCA stock closes at or above the trigger price - 70% of the initial share price - on any quarterly observation date, the issuer will pay a contingent coupon of 10% per year. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid for that quarter.

If the share price is greater than or equal to the initial price on any of the observation dates, the notes will be called at par of $10 plus the contingent coupon.

If the notes are not called and the HCA share price finishes at or above the trigger price, the payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon. Otherwise, investors will be exposed to any share price decline.
