New Issue: Barclays prices $6.5 million 9% callable yield notes tied to Russell 2000, SPDR S&P Metals

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Feb. 10 - Barclays Bank plc priced $6.5 million of 9% callable yield notes due Feb. 13, 2013 linked to the Russell 2000 index and the SPDR S&P Metals & Mining exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest will be payable monthly.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either underlying component closes below its trigger level - 55% of its initial level - during the life of the notes and either finishes below its initial level, in which case investors will receive par plus the return of the worst-performing underlying component.

The notes will be callable at par on any interest payment date.

Barclays Capital Inc. is the agent.
