1. The investor fee is calculated on a daily basis in the following manner: The investor fee on the initial valuation date will be equal zero. On each
subsequent
calendar
day
until
maturity
or
early
redemption,
the
investor
fee
will
increase
by
an
amount
equal
to
0.45%
times
the
closing
indicative
note
value
on
the
immediately
preceding
calendar
day
times
the
daily
index
factor
on
that
day
(equal
to
the
closing
level
of
the
Index
on
such
index
business
day
divided
by
the
closing
level
of
the
Index
on
the
immediately
preceding
index
business
day;
if
such
day
is
not
an
index
business
day,
the
such
quotient
will
equal
one)
divided
by
365.
Because
your
notes
are
subject
to
an
investor
fee,
the
return
on
the
ETNs
will
always
be
lower
than
the total return on a direct investment in the Index.

1. Annualized Volatility is calculated as a standard deviation of natural logarithm daily returns in the observation period multiplied by the square
root of 252. Because the annualized volatility is based on historical data (since the date listed above), it may not predict variability on annualized
future performance.
2.  Correlation is the term used to describe the historical statistical relationship between two or more quantities or variables. Perfectly correlated
assets have a correlation coefficient of one, while the correlation coefficient is zero when returns on two assets are completely independent.

The CAPE Ratio
The Cyclically Adjusted PE
(CAPE) ratio,
“Campbell-Shiller PE(10)”, or “Shiller 10”,
seeks to assess long term equity market
valuations
Formally defined by Robert Shiller and John Y. 
Campbell
during
the
1980s;
2
Became a frequently cited  benchmark for long-
term equity valuation.
7   |  Barclays ETN+ Shiller CAPE™
ETN
1. In its original formulation, the CAPE ratio used the price returns index. In a collaboration between Robert Shiller and Barclays, the CAPE ratio has been
modified to account for dividend payments, by referencing the total returns, and the 10-Y dividend-adjusted earnings.

Relative CAPE
The CAPE ratio may be used to compare
relative valuation of single equity sectors.
To account for idiosyncratic differences between sectors,
where CAPE ratios have historically been of different
magnitudes, a “Relative CAPE”
indicator is used:
40 years of S&P Select Sector Indices price and earnings data have been re-created by
Barclays Bank PLC to provide such comparison.

1. The 20 year data entering the average is winsorized (i.e. filtered to exclude extremely high or low data points) at the 5% level, aiming to eliminating
extreme events in the history of a sector.
The Index calculates the Relative CAPE Indicator  for the nine US equity
sectors,
and
the
five
most
undervalued
sectors
are
selected:


Value Trap and Momentum
The “ Value Trap ”:
In general, undervalued stocks have historically outperformed equity benchmarks over
the long term
1
.
However,
some
assets
may
appear
undervalued
when
their
low
price
is
actually
due
to fundamental or other reasons, and their value might continue to decline (so called
value trap ”).
A Price Momentum signal may assist in mitigating this potential issue:
By discarding sectors with recent negative performance, price momentum seeks to
avoid sectors that may fall in value in the short term.
The Index incorporates a momentum factor by:
Evaluating the trailing 12-month returns of the five most relatively undervalued
sectors;
Discarding from the Index allocation the worst-performing sector.

Selected Risk Considerations
An investment in the ETNs described herein (the “ETNs”) involves risks.  Selected risks are summarized here, but we urge you to read the more detailed
explanation
of
risks
described
under
“Risk
Factors”
in
the
applicable
prospectus
supplement
and
pricing
supplement. 
You
May
Lose
Some
or
All
of
Your
Principal :
The
ETNs
are
exposed
to
any
decrease
in
the
level
of
the
underlying
index
between
the
inception
date
and
the applicable valuation date.  Additionally, if the level of the underlying index is insufficient to offset the negative effect
of the investor fee and other
applicable costs, you will lose some or all of your investment at maturity or upon redemption, even if the value of such index has increased.  Because the
ETNs are subject to an investor fee and any other applicable costs, the return on the ETNs will always be lower than the total return on a direct investment in
the index components.  The
ETNs
are
riskier
than
ordinary
unsecured
debt
securities
and
have
no
principal
protection.
Credit
of
Barclays
Bank
PLC :
The
ETNs
are
unsecured
debt
obligations
of
the
issuer,
Barclays
Bank
PLC,
and
are
not,
either
directly
or
indirectly,
an
obligation
of
or
guaranteed
by
any
third
party.
Any
payment
to
be
made
on
the
ETNs,
including
any
payment
at
maturity
or
upon
redemption,
depends
on
the
ability of Barclays Bank PLC to satisfy its obligations as they come due.  As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness of Barclays Bank PLC will
affect the market value, if any, of the ETNs prior to maturity or redemption.  In addition, in the event Barclays Bank PLC were to default on its obligations, you
may not receive any amounts owed to you under the terms of the ETNs.
Issuer
Redemption :
Barclays
Bank
PLC
will
have
the
right
to
redeem
or
“call”
the
ETNs
(in
whole
but
not
in
part)
at
its
sole
discretion
and
without
your
consent on any trading day on or after the inception date until and including maturity.
Dynamic
Allocation
and
Strategy
Risk:
The
value
of
the
index
will
depend
upon
the
success
of
the
index
in
dynamically
allocating
among
the
Sector
Indices.  The allocation among the Sector Indices is based upon a proprietary index methodology sponsored by Barclays Bank PLC that may not provide
outperformance
relative
to
any
alternative
allocation
among
the
Sector
Indices
or
a
diversified
portfolio
generally,
and
is
made
in
accordance
with
pre-defined
weightings that may not be optimal.
Market and Volatility Risk:
The
market
value
of
the
ETNs
may
be
influenced
by
many
unpredictable
factors
and
may
fluctuate
between
the
date
you
purchase them and the maturity date or redemption date. You may also sustain a significant loss if you sell your ETNs in the secondary market.  Factors that
may influence the market value of the ETNs include prevailing market prices of the U.S. stock markets, the index components included in the underlying index,
and prevailing market prices of options on such index or any other financial instruments related to such index; and supply and demand for the ETNs, including
economic, financial, political, regulatory, geographical or judicial events that affect the level of such index or other financial instruments related to such index.
A Trading
Market
for
the
ETNs
May
Not
Develop :
Although
the
ETNs
are
listed
on
NYSE
Arca,
a
trading
market
for
the
ETNs
may
not
develop
and
the
liquidity of the ETNs may be limited, as we are not required to maintain any listing of the ETNs.
No
Interest
Payments
from
the
ETNs :
You may not receive any interest payments on the ETNs.
Restrictions
on
the
Minimum
Number
of
ETNs
and
Date
Restrictions
for
Redemptions :
You
must
redeem
at
least
25,000
ETNs
at
one
time
in
order
to
exercise your right to redeem your ETNs on any redemption date.
You may only redeem your ETNs on a redemption date if we receive a notice of redemption
from you by certain dates and times as set forth in the pricing supplement.
Uncertain Tax Treatment :
Significant aspects of the tax treatment of the ETNs are uncertain.  You should consult your own tax advisor about your own tax
situation.
