Chicago, July 13 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $4 million of callable contingent coupon barrier notes due July 5, 2019 linked to Microsoft Corp. stock, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 8.5% if the stock closes at or above its 75% coupon barrier on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes are callable on any interest payment date.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless the stock finishes below its 75% trigger level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses.
