Madison, Wis., May 20 – Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. plans to price 0% buffered Russell 2000 index-linked notes due June 1, 2018, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the index return is positive, the payout at maturity will be par plus the gain, subject to a maximum settlement amount of $1,412.50 for each $1,000 principal amount.

Investors will receive par if the index falls by up to 15% and will lose 1% for every 1% decline in the index beyond the buffer amount.

Goldman Sachs & Co. is the agent.

The notes will price on May 27 and settle on May 29.

The Cusip number is 38148T3U1.
