New Issue: Barclays prices $3.75 million autocallable notes linked to three stocks

By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., June 2 – Barclays Bank plc priced $3.75 million of 18.25% autocallable notes due Nov. 27, 2015 linked to the least performing of Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc., JetBlue Airways Corp. and Apple Inc. shares, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest is payable monthly.

The notes will be called at par plus the coupon if each stock closes at or above its initial price on Aug. 26, Sept. 24 or Oct. 26.

A knock-in event occurs if any underlying stock closes below its barrier price, 75% of the initial price, on any day during the life of the notes.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the final price of the least-performing stock is less than its initial price and a knock-in event occurs, in which case the payout will be a number of shares of the least-performing stock equal to $1,000 divided by its initial price or, at the issuer’s option, par plus the return of the least-performing stock.

Barclays is the agent.
