By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., May 30 - Barclays Bank plc priced $4.2 million of 0% autocallable notes due Nov. 29, 2012 linked to the Brent crude oil futures contract, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Beginning Aug. 27, the notes will be called at par plus a call premium of 5.42% if the futures contract price closes at or above the initial price on any day.
