$1,524,770 Barclays Bank PLC Trigger Return Optimization Securities
Linked to the S&P 500 ® Index due July 29, 2016

Investment Description

Trigger Return Optimization Securities (the “Securities”) are unsubordinated and unsecured debt obligations issued by Barclays Bank PLC (the “Issuer”) with returns linked to the performance of the S&P 500 ® Index (the “Underlying Index”). If the Index Return is positive, the Issuer will repay the principal amount of the Securities at maturity plus pay a return equal to the Multiplier of 1.5 multiplied by the Index Return, up to the Maximum Gain of 29.07%. If the Index Return is zero or negative and the Index Ending Level is equal to or greater than the Trigger Level (75% of the Index Starting Level), the Issuer will repay the principal amount of the Securities at maturity. However, if the Index Ending Level is less than the Trigger Level, you will be exposed to the full decline in the Underlying Index and the Issuer will repay less than the full principal amount of the Securities, if anything, resulting in a loss of principal that is proportionate to the negative Index Return. Investing in the Securities involves significant risks. The Issuer will not pay any interest on the Securities. You may lose some or all of the principal amount of the Securities. The contingent repayment of principal applies only at maturity. Any payment on the Securities, including any repayment of principal, is subject to the creditworthiness of the Issuer and is not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. If the Issuer were to default on its payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the Securities and you could lose your entire investment.

Features

q Enhanced Growth Potential: At maturity, the Securities enhance any positive returns of the Underlying Index, up to the Maximum Gain. If the Index Return is negative, investors may be exposed to the full decline in the Underlying Index at maturity.
q Contingent Repayment of Principal at Maturity: If the Index Return is zero or negative and the Index Ending Level is equal to or greater than the Trigger Level, the Issuer will repay the principal amount at maturity. However, if the Index Ending Level is less than the Trigger Level, meaning the Index Return is less than -25%, the Issuer will repay less than the full principal amount, if anything, resulting in a loss of principal to investors that is proportionate to the negative Index Return. The contingent repayment of principal applies only if you hold the Securities to maturity. Any payment on the Securities, including any repayment of principal, is subject to the creditworthiness of the Issuer.

NOTICE TO INVESTORS: THE SECURITIES ARE SIGNIFICANTLY RISKIER THAN CONVENTIONAL DEBT INSTRUMENTS. THE ISSUER IS NOT NECESSARILY OBLIGATED TO REPAY THE FULL PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THE SECURITIES AT MATURITY, AND THE SECURITIES CAN HAVE DOWNSIDE MARKET RISK SIMILAR TO THE UNDERLYING INDEX. THIS MARKET RISK IS IN ADDITION TO THE CREDIT RISK INHERENT IN PURCHASING A DEBT OBLIGATION OF BARCLAYS BANK PLC. YOU SHOULD NOT PURCHASE THE SECURITIES IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND OR ARE NOT COMFORTABLE WITH THE SIGNIFICANT RISKS INVOLVED IN INVESTING IN THE SECURITIES.

YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE RISKS DESCRIBED UNDER “KEY RISKS” BEGINNING ON PAGE PS-7 AND UNDER “RISK FACTORS” BEGINNING ON PAGE S-6 OF THE PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT BEFORE PURCHASING ANY SECURITIES. EVENTS RELATING TO ANY OF THOSE RISKS, OR OTHER RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET VALUE OF, AND THE RETURN ON, YOUR SECURITIES. YOU MAY LOSE SOME OR ALL OF THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THE SECURITIES.

Additional Information about Barclays Bank PLC and the Securities

You should read this pricing supplement together with the information supplement dated July 19, 2013, prospectus dated July 19, 2013, as supplemented by the prospectus supplement dated July 19, 2013 relating to our Global Medium-Term Securities, Series A, of which these Securities are a part. This pricing supplement, together with the documents listed below, contains the terms of the Securities and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous oral statements as well as any other written materials including preliminary or indicative pricing terms, correspondence, trade ideas, structures for implementation, sample structures, brochures or other educational materials of ours. You should carefully consider, among other things, the matters set forth in “Risk Factors” in the prospectus supplement, as the Securities involve risks not associated with conventional debt securities. We urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors before you invest in the Securities.

If the terms discussed in this pricing supplement differ from those in the information supplement, prospectus and the prospectus supplement, the terms discussed herein will control.

You may access these documents on the SEC website at www.sec.gov as follows (or if such address has changed, by reviewing our filings for the relevant date on the SEC website):

Our SEC file number is 1-10257. References to “Barclays,” “Barclays Bank PLC,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer only to Barclays Bank PLC and not to its consolidated subsidiaries. In this document, “Securities” refers to the Trigger Return Optimization Securities linked to the S&P 500 ® Index that are offered hereby, unless the context otherwise requires.

Additional Information Regarding Our Estimated Value of the Securities

Our internal pricing models take into account a number of variables and are based on a number of subjective assumptions, which may or may not materialize, typically including volatility, interest rates, and our internal funding rates. Our internal funding rates (which are our internally published borrowing rates based on variables such as market benchmarks, our appetite for borrowing, and our existing obligations coming to maturity) may vary from the levels at which our benchmark debt securities trade in the secondary market. Our estimated value on the Trade Date is based on our internal funding rates. Our estimated value of the Securities may be lower if such valuation were based on the levels at which our benchmark debt securities trade in the secondary market.

Our estimated value of the Securities on the Trade Date is less than the initial issue price of the Securities. The difference between the initial issue price of the Securities and our estimated value of the Securities results from several factors, including any sales commissions to be paid to Barclays Capital Inc. or another affiliate of ours, any selling concessions, discounts, commissions or fees to be allowed or paid to non-affiliated intermediaries, the estimated profit that we or any of our affiliates expect to earn in connection with structuring the Securities, the estimated cost which we may incur in hedging our obligations under the Securities, and estimated development and other costs which we may incur in connection with the Securities.

Our estimated value on the Trade Date is not a prediction of the price at which the Securities may trade in the secondary market, nor will it be the price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may buy or sell the Securities in the secondary market. Subject to normal market and funding conditions, Barclays Capital Inc. or another affiliate of ours intends to offer to purchase the Securities in the secondary market but it is not obligated to do so.

Assuming that all relevant factors remain constant after the Trade Date, the price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may initially buy or sell the Securities in the secondary market, if any, and the value that we may initially use for customer account statements, if we provide any customer account statements at all, may exceed our estimated value on the Trade Date for a temporary period expected to be approximately 8 months after the initial issue date of the Securities because, in our discretion, we may elect to effectively reimburse to investors a portion of the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the Securities and other costs in connection with the Securities which we will no longer expect to incur over the term of the Securities. We made such discretionary election and determined this temporary reimbursement period on the basis of a number of factors, including the tenor of the Securities and any agreement we may have with the distributors of the Securities. The amount of our estimated costs which we effectively reimburse to investors in this way may not be allocated ratably throughout the reimbursement period, and we may discontinue such reimbursement at any time or revise the duration of the reimbursement period after the initial issue date of the Securities based on changes in market conditions and other factors that cannot be predicted.

We urge you to read the “Key Risks” beginning on page PS-7 of this pricing supplement.

Investor Suitability

The Securities may be suitable for you if:

t   You fully understand the risks inherent in an investment in the Securities, including the risk of loss of your entire initial investment.
t   You can tolerate a loss of all or a substantial portion of your investment, and you are willing to make an investment that may have the same downside market risk as the Underlying Index.
t   You believe the Underlying Index will appreciate over the term of the Securities and that any such appreciation is unlikely to exceed the Maximum Gain of 29.07%.
t   You understand and accept that your potential return is limited by the Maximum Gain, and you are willing to invest in the Securities based on the Maximum Gain specified on the cover hereof.
t   You do not seek current income from this investment, and you are willing to forgo any dividends paid on the stocks included in the Underlying Index.
t   You are willing and able to hold the Securities to maturity, a term of 3 years, and accept that there may be little or no secondary market for the Securities.
t   You are willing to assume the credit risk of Barclays Bank PLC, as issuer of the Securities, for all payments under the Securities and understand that if Barclays Bank PLC were to default on its payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the Securities, including any repayment of principal.

The Securities may not be suitable for you if:

t   You do not fully understand the risks inherent in an investment in the Securities, including the risk of loss of your entire initial investment.
t   You require an investment designed to provide a full return of principal at maturity.
t   You cannot tolerate the loss of some or all of your initial investment and are not willing to make an investment that may have the same downside market risk as the Underlying Index.
t   You believe that the Underlying Index will depreciate over the term of the Securities and the Index Ending Level is likely to be below the Trigger Level, or you believe the Underlying Index will appreciate over the term of the Securities by more than the Maximum Gain.
t   You seek an investment that has unlimited return potential without a cap on appreciation, or you are unwilling to invest in the Securities based on the Maximum Gain specified on the cover hereof.
t   You seek current income from this investment, or you would prefer to receive any dividends paid on the stocks included in the Underlying Index.
t   You are unable or unwilling to hold the Securities to maturity, a term of 3 years, or you seek an investment for which there will be an active secondary market.
t   You are not willing or are unable to assume the credit risk associated with Barclays Bank PLC, as issuer of the Securities, for any payments under the Securities, including any repayment of principal.
     

The suitability considerations identified above are not exhaustive. Whether or not the Securities are a suitable investment for you will depend on your individual circumstances, and you should reach an investment decision only after you and your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors have carefully considered the suitability of an investment in the Securities in light of your particular circumstances. You should also review carefully the “Key Risks” beginning on page PS-7 of this pricing supplement as well as the “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-6 of the prospectus supplement for risks related to an investment in the Securities.

1 The Index Return excludes any cash dividend payments.
2 The “total return” is the number, expressed as a percentage, that results from comparing the payment at maturity per $10 principal amount Security to the purchase price of $10 per Security for all brokerage accounts.
3 The “total return” is the number, expressed as a percentage, that results from comparing the payment at maturity per $10 principal amount Security to the purchase price of $9.75 per Security, which is the purchase price for investors in advisory accounts. See “Supplemental Plan of Distribution” on page PS-13 of this pricing supplement.

Example 1 — The closing level of the Underlying Index increases 5.00% from the Index Starting Level of 1,691.65 to an Index Ending Level of 1,776.23, resulting in an Index Return of 5.00%.

Because the Index Return of 5.00% is positive and such Index Return multiplied by 1.5 is less than the Maximum Gain of 29.07%, the Issuer will pay a payment at maturity calculated as follows per $10 principal amount Security:

$10 + [$10 x the lesser of (a) Index Return x Multiplier and (b) the Maximum Gain]

$10+ [$10 x 5.00% x 1.5] = $10 + $0.75 = $10.75

The payment at maturity of $10.75 per $10 principal amount Security represents a return on the principal amount of 7.50%, which corresponds to a total return on the Securities of 7.50% for brokerage account holders and 10.26% for advisory account holders.

PS-5

 
 

Example 2 — The closing level of the Underlying Index increases 30.00% from the Index Starting Level of 1,691.65 to an Index Ending Level of 2,199.15, resulting in an Index Return of 30.00%.

Because the Index Return of 30.00% is positive and such Index Return multiplied by 1.5 is greater than the Maximum Gain of 29.07%, the Issuer will pay a payment at maturity calculated as follows per $10 principal amount Security:

$10 + [$10 x the lesser of (a) Index Return x Multiplier and (b) the Maximum Gain]

$10+ [$10 x 29.07%] = $10 + $2.907 = $12.907

The payment at maturity of $12.907 per $10 principal amount Security, which is the maximum payment on the Securities, represents a return on the principal amount equal to the Maximum Gain of 29.07%, which corresponds to a total return on the Securities of 29.07% for brokerage account holders and 32.38% for advisory account holders.

Example 3 — The closing level of the Underlying Index decreases 5.00% from the Index Starting Level of 1,691.65 to an Index Ending Level of 1,607.07, resulting in an Index Return of -5.00%.

Because the Index Return is negative and the Index Ending Level is equal to or greater than the Trigger Level, the Issuer will repay the full principal amount at maturity of $10.00 per $10 principal amount Security.

The payment at maturity of $10.00 per $10 principal amount Security represents a return on the principal amount of 0.00%, which corresponds to a total return on the Securities of 0.00% for brokerage account holders and 2.56% for advisory account holders.

Example 4 — The closing level of the Underlying Index decreases 40.00% from the Index Starting Level of 1,691.65 to an Index Ending Level of 1,014.99, resulting in an Index Return of -40.00%.

Because the Index Return is negative and the Index Ending Level is less than the Trigger Level, the Issuer will pay a payment at maturity calculated as follows per $10 principal amount Security:

$10 + [$10 x Index Return]

$10 + [$10 x -40.00%] = $10 + -$4.00 = $6.00

The payment at maturity of $6.00 per $10 principal amount Security represents a loss on the principal amount of 40%, which is equal to the Index Return of -40.00%, and corresponds to a total loss on the Securities of 40.00% for brokerage account holders and 38.46% for advisory account holders.

If the Index Ending Level is below the Trigger Level, at maturity the Issuer will pay less than the full principal amount, if anything, resulting in a loss of principal that is proportionate to the full depreciation of the Underlying Index from the Trade Date to the Final Valuation Date.

What are the material tax consequences of the Securities?

The material tax consequences of your investment in the Securities are summarized below. The discussion below supplements the discussion under “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. Except as noted under “Non-U.S. Holders” below, this section applies to you only if you are a U.S. holder (as defined in the accompanying prospectus supplement) and you hold your Securities as capital assets for tax purposes and does not apply to you if you are a member of a class of holders subject to special rules or are otherwise excluded from the discussion in the prospectus supplement (for example, if you did not purchase your Securities in the initial issuance of the Securities).

The U.S. federal income tax consequences of your investment in the Securities are uncertain and the Internal Revenue Service could assert that the Securities should be taxed in a manner that is different than described below. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities, Barclays Bank PLC and you agree, in the absence of a change in law or an administrative or judicial ruling to the contrary, to characterize your Securities as a pre-paid cash-settled executory contract with respect to the Underlying Index. If your Securities are so treated, you should generally recognize capital gain or loss upon the sale or maturity of your Securities in an amount equal to the difference between the amount you receive at such time and the amount you paid for your Securities. Such gain or loss should generally be long-term capital gain or loss if you have held your Securities for more than one year.

In the opinion of our special tax counsel, Sullivan & Cromwell LLP, it would be reasonable to treat your Securities in the manner described above. This opinion assumes that the description of the terms of the Securities in this pricing supplement is materially correct.

As discussed further in the accompanying prospectus supplement, the Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service are actively considering various alternative treatments that may apply to instruments such as the Securities, possibly with retroactive effect.

For a further discussion of the tax treatment of your Securities as well as possible alternative characterizations, please see the discussion under the heading “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — Certain Notes Treated as Forward Contracts or Executory Contracts” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. You should consult your tax advisor as to the possible alternative treatments in respect of the Securities. For additional, important considerations related to tax risks associated with investing in the Securities, you should also examine the discussion in “Key Risks — Taxes”, in this pricing supplement.

“Specified Foreign Financial Asset” Reporting. Under legislation enacted in 2010, owners of “specified foreign financial assets” with an aggregate value in excess of $50,000 (and in some circumstances, a higher threshold) may be required to file an information report with respect to such assets with their tax returns. “Specified foreign financial assets” generally include any financial accounts maintained by foreign financial institutions, as well as any of the following (which may include your Securities), but only if they are not held in accounts maintained by financial institutions: (i) stocks and securities issued by non-U.S. persons, (ii) financial instruments and contracts held for investment that have non-U.S. issuers or counterparties and (iii) interests in foreign entities. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of this legislation to their ownership of the Securities.

Non-U.S. Holders. The Treasury Department has issued proposed regulations under Section 871(m) of the Internal Revenue Code which could ultimately require us to treat all or a portion of any payment in respect of your Securities as a “dividend equivalent” payment that is subject to withholding tax at a rate of 30% (or a lower rate under an applicable treaty). You could also be required to make certain certifications in order to avoid or minimize such withholding obligations, and you could be subject to withholding (subject to your potential right to claim a refund from the Internal Revenue Service) if such certifications were not received or were not satisfactory. You should consult your tax advisor concerning the potential application of these regulations to payments you receive with respect to the Securities when these regulations are finalized.

Key Risks

An investment in the Securities involves significant risks. Investing in the Securities is not equivalent to investing directly in the Underlying Index or the component stocks of the Underlying Index. Some of the risks that apply to an investment in the Securities offered hereby are summarized below, but we urge you to read the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the Securities generally in the “Risk Factors” section of the prospectus supplement. You should reach an investment decision only after you have carefully considered with your advisors the suitability of an investment in the Securities in light of your particular circumstances.

t   You Risk Losing Some or All of Your Principal — The Securities differ from ordinary debt securities in that the Issuer will not necessarily repay the full principal amount of the Securities. The Issuer will only pay you the principal amount of your Securities if the Index Ending Level is greater than or equal to the Trigger Level and will only make such payment at maturity. If the Index Ending Level is below the Trigger Level, meaning the Index Return is less than -25%, you will be exposed to the full negative Index Return and the Issuer will pay you less than the full principal amount, if anything, resulting in a loss of the principal amount that is proportionate to the depreciation of the Underlying Index from the Trade Date to the Final Valuation Date. Accordingly, if the Index Ending Level has declined by more than 25% from the Index Starting Level over the term of the Securities, you risk losing 100% of your principal.
t   Contingent Repayment of Principal Applies Only If You Hold the Securities to Maturity — Barclays Bank PLC will pay you at least the principal amount of your Securities under the certain limited circumstances described in this pricing supplement only if you hold your Securities to maturity. The market value of the Securities may fluctuate between the date you purchase them and the Final Valuation Date. If you are able to sell your Securities in the secondary market prior to maturity, you may have to sell them at a loss even if the level of the Underlying Index is above the Trigger Level. You should be willing to hold your Securities to maturity. Contingent repayment of principal at maturity is subject to the creditworthiness of Barclays Bank PLC and is not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party.

PS-7

 
 

t   The Multiplier Applies Only if You Hold the Securities to Maturity — You should be willing to hold your Securities to maturity. If you are able to sell your Securities prior to maturity in the secondary market, the price you receive will likely not reflect the full economic value of the Multiplier or the Securities themselves, and the return you realize may be less than 1.5 times the Underlying Index’s return even if such return is positive and does not exceed the Maximum Gain. You can receive the full benefit of the Multiplier and earn the potential Maximum Gain on the principal amount from the Issuer only if you hold your Securities to maturity.
t   Your Maximum Return on the Securities Is Limited by the Maximum Gain — If the Index Ending Level is greater than the Index Starting Level, for each $10 principal amount of Securities, the Issuer will pay you at maturity $10 plus an additional amount that will not exceed a predetermined percentage of the principal amount, regardless of the appreciation of the Underlying Index, which may be significant. We refer to this percentage as the Maximum Gain, which is equal to 29.07%. Therefore, you will not benefit from any positive Index Return in excess of an amount that, when multiplied by the Multiplier, exceeds the Maximum Gain, and your return on the Securities may be less than the return on a direct investment in the Underlying Index or its underlying components.
t   Credit of Issuer — The Securities are unsecured debt obligations of the Issuer, Barclays Bank PLC and are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. Any payment to be made on the Securities, including any repayment of principal, 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 may affect the market value of the Securities and, 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 Securities and you could lose your entire investment.
t   Owning the Securities is Not the Same as Owning the Stocks Comprising the Index — The return on your Securities may not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned the stocks included in the Index. As a holder of the Securities, you will not have voting rights or rights to receive dividends or other distributions or other rights that holders of stocks included in the Index would have.
t   No Interest Payments — The Issuer will not make periodic interest payments on the Securities, and the return on the Securities is limited to the performance of the Underlying Index from the Trade Date to the Final Valuation Date.
t   Dealer Incentives — We, our affiliates and agents act in various capacities with respect to the Securities. We and other of our affiliates may act as a principal, agent or dealer in connection with the Securities. Such affiliates, including the sales representatives, will derive compensation from the distribution of the Securities and such compensation may serve as an incentive to sell these Securities instead of other investments. We will pay compensation of $0.25 per Security to the principals, agents and dealers in connection with the distribution of the Securities to brokerage accounts. No compensation will be paid in connection with the distribution of Securities to advisory accounts.
t   Limited Liquidity — The Securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Barclays Capital Inc. and other affiliates of Barclays Bank PLC intend to offer to purchase the Securities in the secondary market but are not required to do so and may cease any such market making activities at any time. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the Securities easily. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the Securities, the price at which you may be able to trade your Securities is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which Barclays Capital Inc. and other affiliates of Barclays Bank PLC are willing to buy the Securities.
t   Potential Conflicts — We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the Securities, including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the Securities. In performing these duties, the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the Securities.
t   Taxes — The U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Securities is uncertain and the Internal Revenue Service could assert that the Securities should be taxed in a manner that is different than described above. As discussed further in the accompanying prospectus supplement, the Internal Revenue Service issued a notice in 2007 indicating that it and the Treasury Department are actively considering whether, among other issues, you should be required to accrue interest over the term of an instrument such as the Securities and whether all or part of the gain you may recognize upon the sale or maturity of an instrument such as the Securities should be treated as ordinary income. Similarly, the Internal Revenue Service and the Treasury Department have current projects open with regard to the tax treatment of pre-paid forward contracts and contingent notional principal contracts. While it is impossible to anticipate how any ultimate guidance would affect the tax treatment of instruments such as the Securities (and while any such guidance may be issued on a prospective basis only), such guidance could be applied retroactively and could in any case increase the likelihood that you will be required to accrue income over the term of an instrument such as the Securities even though you will not receive any payments with respect to the Securities until maturity. The outcome of this process is uncertain. You should consult your tax advisor as to the possible alternative treatments in respect of the Securities.
t   Potentially Inconsistent Research, Opinions or Recommendations by Barclays, UBS Financial Services Inc. or Their Respective Affiliates — Barclays, UBS Financial Services Inc. or their respective affiliates and agents may publish research from time to time on financial markets and other matters that may influence the value of the Securities, or express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the Securities. Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by Barclays, UBS Financial Services Inc. or their respective affiliates or agents may not be consistent with each other and may be modified from time to time without notice. You should make your own independent investigation of the merits of investing in the Securities and the Underlying Index.
t   Potential Barclays Bank PLC Impact on Price — Trading or transactions by Barclays Bank PLC or its affiliates in the stocks composing the Underlying Index, or in futures, options, exchange traded funds or other derivative products on the stocks comprising the Index may adversely affect the market value of the stocks comprising the Underlying Index, the level of the Underlying Index, and, therefore, the market value of the Securities.

PS-8

 
 

t   The Payment at Maturity on Your Securities is Not Based on the Level of the Underlying Index at Any Time Other than the Final Valuation Date — The Index Ending Level and the Index Return will be based solely on the closing level of the Underlying Index on the Final Valuation Date (subject to adjustments as described in the prospectus supplement). Therefore, if the level of the Underlying Index drops precipitously on the Final Valuation Date, the payment at maturity on your Securities that the Issuer pays you may be significantly less than it would otherwise have been had the payment at maturity been linked to the level of the Underlying Index at a time prior to such drop. Although the level of the Underlying Index on the maturity date or at other times during the life of your Securities may be higher than the level of the Underlying Index on the Final Valuation Date, you will not benefit from the level of the Underlying Index at any time other than the Final Valuation Date.
t   The Estimated Value of Your Securities Might Be Lower If Such Estimated Value Were Based on the Levels at which Our Debt Securities Trade in the Secondary Market — The estimated value of your Securities on the Trade Date is based on a number of variables, including our internal funding rates. Our internal funding rates may vary from the levels at which our benchmark debt securities trade in the secondary market. As a result of this difference, the estimated value referenced above may be lower if such estimated value were based on the levels at which our benchmark debt securities trade in the secondary market. Also, this difference in funding rate as well as certain factors, such as sales commissions, selling concessions, estimated costs and profits mentioned below, reduces the economic terms of the Securities to you.
t   The Estimated Value of Your Securities is Lower than the Initial Issue Price of Your Securities — The estimated value of your Securities on the Trade Date is lower than the initial issue price of your Securities. The difference between the initial issue price of your Securities and the estimated value of the Securities is a result of certain factors, such as any sales commissions to be paid to Barclays Capital Inc. or another affiliate of ours, any selling concessions, discounts, commissions or fees to be allowed or paid to non-affiliated intermediaries, the estimated profit that we or any of our affiliates expect to earn in connection with structuring the Securities, the estimated cost which we may incur in hedging our obligations under the Securities, and estimated development and other costs which we may incur in connection with the Securities.
t   The Estimated Value of the Securities is Based on Our Internal Pricing Models, which May Prove to be Inaccurate and may be Different from the Pricing Models of Other Financial Institutions — The estimated value of your Securities on the Trade Date is based on our internal pricing models, which take into account a number of variables and are based on a number of subjective assumptions, which may or may not materialize. These variables and assumptions are not evaluated or verified on an independent basis. Further, our pricing models may be different from other financial institutions’ pricing models and the methodologies used by us to estimate the value of the Securities may not be consistent with those of other financial institutions which may be purchasers or sellers of Securities in the secondary market. As a result, the secondary market price of your Securities may be materially different from the estimated value of the Securities determined by reference to our internal pricing models.
t   The Estimated Value of Your Securities is not a Prediction of the Prices at which You May Sell Your Securities in the Secondary Market, if any, and Such Secondary Market Prices, If Any, Will Likely be Lower than the Initial Issue Price of Your Securities and may be Lower than the Estimated Value of Your Securities — The estimated value of the Securities will not be a prediction of the prices at which Barclays Capital Inc., other affiliates of ours or third parties may be willing to purchase the Securities from you in secondary market transactions (if they are willing to purchase, which they are not obligated to do). The price at which you may be able to sell your Securities in the secondary market at any time will be influenced by many factors that cannot be predicted, such as market conditions, and any bid and ask spread for similar sized trades, and may be substantially less than our estimated value of the Securities. Further, as secondary market prices of your Securities take into account the levels at which our debt securities trade in the secondary market, and do not take into account our various costs related to the Securities such as fees, commissions, discounts, and the costs of hedging our obligations under the Securities, secondary market prices of your Securities will likely be lower than the initial issue price of your Securities. As a result, the price, at which Barclays Capital Inc., other affiliates of ours or third parties may be willing to purchase the Securities from you in secondary market transactions, if any, will likely be lower than the price you paid for your Securities, and any sale prior to the maturity date could result in a substantial loss to you.
t   The Temporary Price at which We May Initially Buy the Securities in the Secondary Market and the Value We May Initially Use for Customer Account Statements, If We Provide Any Customer Account Statements At All, may not be Indicative of Future Prices of Your Securities — Assuming that all relevant factors remain constant after the Trade Date, the price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may initially buy or sell the Securities in the secondary market (if Barclays Capital Inc. makes a market in the Securities, which it is not obligated to do) and the value that we may initially use for customer account statements, if we provide any customer account statements at all, may exceed our estimated value of the Securities on the Trade Date, as well as the secondary market value of the Securities, for a temporary period after the initial issue date of the Securities. The price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may initially buy or sell the Securities in the secondary market and the value that we may initially use for customer account statements may not be indicative of future prices of your Securities. Please see “Additional Information Regarding Our Estimated Value of the Securities” on page PS-2 for further information.

PS-9

 
 

t   We and Our Affiliates May Engage in Various Activities or Make Determinations That Could Materially Affect Your Securities in Various Ways and Create Conflicts of Interest — We and our affiliates establish the offering price of the Securities for initial sale to the public, and the offering price is not based upon any independent verification or valuation. Additionally, the role played by Barclays Capital Inc., as a dealer in the Securities, could present it with significant conflicts of interest with the role of Barclays Bank PLC, as issuer of the Securities. For example, Barclays Capital Inc. or its representatives may derive compensation or financial benefit from the distribution of the Securities and such compensation or financial benefit may serve as an incentive to sell these Securities instead of other investments. We may pay dealer compensation to any of our affiliates acting as agents or dealers in connection with the distribution of the Securities. Furthermore, we and our affiliates make markets in and trade various financial instruments or products for their own accounts and for the account of their clients and otherwise provide investment banking and other financial services with respect to these financial instruments and products. These financial instruments and products may include securities, instruments or assets that may serve as the underliers, basket underliers or constituents of the underliers of the Securities. Such market making, trading activities, other investment banking and financial services may negatively impact the value of the Securities. Furthermore, in any such market making, trading activities, and other services, we or our affiliates may take positions or take actions that are inconsistent with, or adverse to, the investment objectives of the holders of the Securities. We and our affiliates have no obligation to take the needs of any buyer, seller or holder of the Securities into account in conducting these activities.
t   Many Economic and Market Factors Will Affect the Value of the Securities — In addition to the level of the Underlying Index on any day, the value of the Securities will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each other, including:
t   the expected volatility of the Underlying Index;
t   the time to maturity of the Securities;
t   the market price and dividend rate on the component stocks of the Underlying Index;
t   interest and yield rates in the market generally;
t   a variety of economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events;
t   supply and demand for the Securities; and
t   our creditworthiness, including actual or anticipated downgrades in our credit ratings.

S&P 500 ® Index

All information regarding the S&P 500 ® Index (referred to in this section as the “Index) set forth in this pricing supplement reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by, S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC (“S&P Dow Jones Indices”). The Index is calculated, maintained and published by S&P Dow Jones Indices. The Index is reported by Bloomberg under the ticker symbol “SPX <Index>”.

The Index is intended to provide an indication of the pattern of stock price movement in the U.S. equities market. The daily calculation of the level of the Index, discussed below in further detail, is based on the aggregate market value of the common stocks of 500 companies as of a particular time compared to the aggregate average market value of the common stocks of 500 similar companies during the base period of the years 1941 through 1943.

Composition of the Index

S&P Dow Jones Indices chooses companies for inclusion in the Index with the aim of achieving a distribution by broad industry groupings that approximates the distribution of these groupings in the common stock population of the U.S. equities market. Relevant criteria employed by S&P Dow Jones Indices for new additions include the financial viability of the particular company, the extent to which that company represents the industry group to which it is assigned, adequate liquidity and reasonable price, an unadjusted market capitalization of US$4.0 billion or more, U.S. domicile, a public float of at least 50% and company classification (i.e. U.S. common equities listed on the NYSE and the NASDAQ stock market and not closed-end funds, holding companies, tracking stocks, partnerships, investment vehicles, royalty trusts, preferred shares, unit trusts, equity warrants, convertible bonds or investment trusts). The ten main groups of companies that comprise the Index include: Consumer Discretionary, Consumer Staples, Energy, Financials, Health Care, Industrials, Information Technology, Materials, Telecommunication Services and Utilities. S&P Dow Jones Indices may from time to time, in its sole discretion, add companies to, or delete companies from, the Index to achieve the objectives stated above.

The Index does not reflect the payment of dividends on the stocks included in the Index. Because of this the return on the Securities will not be the same as the return you would receive if you were to purchase those stocks and hold them for a period equal to the term of the Securities.

Computation of the Index

As of September 16, 2005, S&P Dow Jones Indices has used a full float-adjusted formula to calculate the Index. With a float-adjusted index, the share counts used in calculating the Index will reflect only those shares that are available to investors, not all of a company’s outstanding shares.

The float-adjusted Index is calculated as the quotient of (1) the sum of the products of (a) the price of each common stock, (b) the total shares outstanding of each common stock and (c) the investable weight factor (“IWF”) and (2) the index divisor.

The investable weight factor is calculated by dividing (1) the available float shares by (2) the total shares outstanding. Available float shares reflect float adjustments made to the total shares outstanding. Float adjustments seek to distinguish strategic shareholders (whose holdings depend on concerns such as maintaining control rather than the economic fortunes of the company) from those holders whose investments depend on the stock’s price and their evaluation of the company’s future prospects.

Float adjustment excludes shares that are closely held by control groups, other publicly traded companies or government agencies. Generally, these “control holders” will include officers and directors, private equity, venture capital and special equity firms, other publicly traded companies that hold shares for control, strategic partners, holders of restricted shares, employee stock option plans, employee and family trusts, foundations associated with the company, holders of unlisted share classes of stock, government entities at all levels (other than government retirement/pension funds) and any individual person who controls a 5% or greater stake in a company as reported in regulatory filings. However, holdings by certain asset managers, such as depositary banks, pension funds, mutual funds and ETF providers, 401(k) plans of the company, government retirement/pension funds, investment funds of insurance companies, asset managers and investment funds, independent foundations and savings and investment plans, will ordinarily be considered part of the float. Effective as of September 2012, all shareholdings representing more than 5% of a stock’s outstanding shares, other than holdings by these asset managers, were removed from the float for purposes of calculating the Index.

Treasury stock, stock options, restricted shares, equity participation units, warrants, preferred stock, convertible stock, and rights are not part of the float. Shares held in a trust to allow investors in countries outside the country of domicile, such as depositary shares and Canadian exchangeable shares are normally part of the float unless those shares form a control block. If a company has multiple classes of stock outstanding, shares in an unlisted or non-traded class are treated as a control block.

For each stock, the IWF is calculated by dividing the available float shares by the total shares outstanding. Available float shares are defined as the total shares outstanding less shares held by control holders. This calculation is subject to a 5% minimum threshold for control blocks. For example, if a company’s officers and directors hold 3% of the company’s shares, and no other control group holds 5% of the company’s shares, S&P Dow Jones Indices would assign that company an IWF of 1.00, as no control group meets the 5% threshold. However, if a company’s officers and directors hold 3% of the company’s shares and another control group holds 20% of the company’s shares, S&P Dow Jones Indices would assign an IWF of 0.77, reflecting the fact that 23% of the company’s outstanding shares are considered to be held for control. For companies with multiple classes of stock, the multiple classes are combined into one class with an adjusted share count. In these cases, the stock price is based on one class, usually the most liquid class, and the share count is based on the total shares outstanding.

Changes in a company’s total shares outstanding of 5.0% or more due to public offerings, tender offers, Dutch auctions, or exchange offers are made as soon as reasonably possible. Other changes of 5.0% or more (for example, due to company stock repurchases, private placements, an acquisition of a privately held company, redemptions, exercise of options, warrants, conversion of preferred stock, notes, debt, equity participations, or other recapitalizations) are made weekly and are announced on Wednesdays for implementation after the close of trading on the following Wednesday (one week later). Changes of less than 5.0% are accumulated and made quarterly on the third Friday of March, June, September, and December.

PS-11

 
 

Changes due to mergers or acquisitions of publicly held companies are made as soon as reasonably possible, regardless of the size of the change, although de minimis merger and acquisition share changes may be accumulated and implemented with the quarterly share rebalancing. Corporate actions such as stock splits, stock dividends, spinoffs and rights offerings are generally applied after the close of trading on the day prior to the ex-date. Share changes resulting from exchange offers are made on the ex-date. Changes in investable weight factors of more than five percentage points caused by corporate actions will be made as soon as possible. Changes in investable weight factors of less than five percentage points will be made annually, in September when revised investable weight factors are reviewed. A share freeze is implemented the week of the rebalancing effective date, the third Friday of the last month of each quarter, during which shares are not changed except for certain corporate actions (merger activity, stock splits, rights offerings and certain dividend payable events).

As discussed above, the value of the Index is the quotient of (1) the total float-adjusted market capitalization of the Index’s constituents (i.e., the sum of the products of (a) the price of each common stock, (b) the total shares outstanding of each common stock and (c) the investable weight factor) and (2) the index divisor. Continuity in index values is maintained by adjusting the divisor for all changes in the constituents’ share capital after the base date, which is the period from 1941 to 1943. This includes additions and deletions to the index, rights issues, share buybacks and issuances, and spin-offs. The index divisor’s time series is, in effect, a chronological summary of all changes affecting the base capital of the Index since the base date. The index divisor is adjusted such that the index value at an instant just prior to a change in base capital equals the index value at an instant immediately following that change. Some corporate actions, such as stock splits require simple changes in the common shares outstanding and the stock prices of the companies in the Index and do not require adjustments to the index divisor.
