New Issue: Barclays prices $18.74 million 9.04% airbag yield autocallables linked to U.S. Steel

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, April 1 - Barclays Bank plc priced $18.74 million of 9.04% airbag autocallable yield optimization notes due March 31, 2014 linked to United States Steel Corp. shares, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest will be payable monthly.

The notes will be called at par plus the coupon if the stock closes at or above the initial share price on any quarterly observation date.

If the notes are not called, the payout at maturity will be par unless the final share price is less than the conversion price, in which case the payout will be a number of U.S. Steel shares equal to $1,000 divided by the conversion price. The conversion price is 80% of the initial share price.
