Midstream US master limited partnerships, limited liability

1. MLP Universe companies and corporations (collectively, “MLPs”), as well as Canadian corporations that own U.S. MLPs1

Index constituents must meet a minimum market cap requirement2

2. Size 3 and a minimum liquidity requirement

3. Credit Index constituents must generally have an investment grade credit Rating rating from S&P, Moody’s or Fitch4

4.Cash Flow Index constituents must receive at least the minimum required level of cash flow5 directly or indirectly from midstream operations in the energy infrastructure business

1. Must be publicly traded and operate in the GICS Energy Sector or the GICS Gas Utilities Industry

2. Each index constituent must have a free float market cap of greater $500 million to be originally selected for the index, and $300 to remain a constituent.

3. Each index constituent must have a three-month average daily trading value greater than $5 million to be originally selected for the index, and $3 million to remain a constituent.

4. Credit rating must be Baa3 or better from Moody’s, BBB or better from Standard & Poor’s or BBB- or better from Fitch. Subject to availability of at least 20 qualifying index constituents, in the event that there are less that 20 qualifying index constituents, the next best ranking index constituent interest will be selected on the basis of credit rating.

5. Each index constituent must receive 50% of cash flow from such operations to be originally selected for the index, and 35% to remain a constituent.

Index Selection Criteria

The MLP universe includes both Limited Partnerships (LPs) & General Partnerships (GPs)

• LPs typically invest capital into the venture and receive periodic cash distributions

• GPs typically oversee the MLP’s operations, own a small economic interest and receive incentive distributions rights (IDRs)

1. • Incentive distribution rights of GPs incentivize management to maximize cash flow MLP • IDRs allow the GP to participate in an increasing proportion of revenue, providing the GP with additional exposure when the MLP is performing well

• Emergence of GP corporations is a recent trend that is not captured by competing ETN

Universe products

• ATMP caps GPs at 4% & LPs at 8% for better diversification

“The inclusion of midstream general partners in the Index, structured as both MLPs and corporations, provides additional exposure to a fast growing and attractive sub-sector in the energy infrastructure industry.” -Adam Karpf, Portfolio Manager and Managing Director at Atlantic Trust

ATMP structure details

Calculating the Value of the ATMP ETN

??ATMP seeks to track the volume weighted average price (VWAP) of Atlantic Trust Select MLP Index ??An “accrued dividend” and an “accrued investor fee” are used to determine the coupon amount payable on each payment date, based on the distributions made by the index consituents1 ??The accrued investor fee (equal to 0.95% per annum) is deducted on a daily basis from the closing indicative value of the ETNs. ??The coupon amount payable on each coupon payment date is calculated by deducting the accrued fees from the accrued dividend as of the relevant coupon valuation date.

Closing Indicative Value

ETN current value

Accrued Dividend2

Accrued Investor Fee2

Coupon Amount

1. An “index dividend” calculated on each calendar day represents the aggregate cash value of distributions, net withholding tax, that a hypothetical person holding index constituents in proportion to the weights of the index constituents would have been entitled to receive with respect to any index constituent for those cash distributions whose “ex-dividend date” occurs on such calendar day.

2. The accrued dividend on the initial valuation date will equal zero. The accrued dividend on any subsequent calendar day will equal (1) the accrued dividend as of the immediately preceding calendar day plus (2) the dollar dividend value on such calendar day minus (3) the coupon adjustment dividend amount. The accrued investor fee on the initial valuation date will equal zero. The accrued investor fee on any subsequent calendar day will equal (1) the accrued investor fee as of the immediately preceding calendar day plus (2) the daily fee value on such calendar day minus (3) the coupon adjustment fee amount on such calendar day. Because the daily fee value is calculated and subtracted from the closing indicative value on a daily basis, the net effect of the fee accumulates over time and is subtracted at the rate of 0.95% per year.

Selected Risk Considerations

An investment in an ETN linked to the Atlantic Trust Select MLP Index (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 Volume Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) level between the inception date and the applicable valuation date. Additionally, if the VWAP level 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 VWAP value 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.

The Payment on the ETNs is Linked to the VWAP Level, Not to the Closing Level of the Index and Not to the Published Intraday Indicative Value of the ETNs: Your payment at maturity or upon early redemption is linked to the performance of the VWAP level, as compared to the initial VWAP level. Although the VWAP level is intended to track the performance of the Index, the calculation of the VWAP level is different from the calculation of the official closing level of the Index. Therefore, the payment at maturity or early redemption of your ETNs, may be different from the payment you would receive if such payment were determined by reference to the official closing level of the Index.

No Guaranteed Coupon Payments: You are not guaranteed to receive coupon payments on the ETNs. You will receive a coupon payment on a coupon payment date only to the extent that the accrued dividend exceeds the accrued investor fee on the relevant coupon valuation date. The amount of the accrued dividend on any coupon valuation date depends in part on the aggregate cash value of distributions that a reference holder would have been entitled to receive in respect of the index constituents prior to the relevant coupon valuation date.

Market and Volatility Risk: The return on the ETNs is linked to the performance of the VWAP level of the Index which, in turn, is linked to the performance of the master limited partnerships and other securities that are included as index constituents at any time. The prices of the index constituents may change unpredictably and, as a result, affect the level of the Index and the value of your our ETNs TNs in unforeseeable wa ays ys.

Concentration Risk: The index constituents are companies in the Energy Sector or Gas Utilities Sector, as determined by the GICS® classification system. In addition, many of the index constituents are smaller, non-diversified businesses that are exposed to the risks associated with such businesses, including the lack of capital funding to sustain or grow businesses and potential competition from larger, better financed and more diversified businesses. The ETNs are susceptible to general market fluctuations in the energy and gas MLP market and to volatile increases and decreases in value, as market confidence in, and perceptions regarding the index constituents change. Your investment may therefore carry risks similar to a concentrated securities investment in one industry or sector.

Selected Risk Considerations

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.

Restrictions on the Minimum Number of ETNs and Date Restrictions for Redemptions: You must redeem at least 50,000 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.

Tax Treatment: Significant aspects of the tax treatment of the ETNs may be less favorable than a direct investment in MLPs and are uncertain. You should consult your own tax advisor about your own tax situation.
