New Issue: Barclays prices $7.61 million callable contingent coupon notes tied to Transocean

By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., March 28 - Barclays Bank plc priced $7.61 million of callable contingent coupon notes due March 31, 2016 linked to Transocean Ltd. shares, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon an annual rate of 10.15% if Transocean shares close at or above the barrier level, 70% of the initial share price, on the valuation date for that quarter.

The notes are callable at par plus the contingent coupon on any interest payment date beginning Dec. 26, 2014.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the stock finishes below the 70% barrier level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses or, at Barclays' option, they will receive a number of Transocean shares equal to $1,000 divided by the initial share price.

Barclays is the agent.
