Sir David Walker and Sir John Sunderland retired at the 2015
Barclays PLC Annual General Meeting and did not seek re-election.
Sir David Walker and Sir John Sunderland therefore resigned from
the Boards of Barclays PLC and Barclays Bank PLC at the conclusion
of the meeting.
As at 6.00pm on Tuesday 21 April 2015, the time by which
shareholders who wanted to attend, speak and vote at the AGM must
have been entered on the Company's register of members, there were
16,746,062,406 ordinary shares in issue. 627 shareholders or
persons representing shareholders attended the meeting.
Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Votes withheld are
not votes and, therefore, have not been counted in the calculation
of the proportion of votes for and against a resolution.
In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of the resolutions
that do not constitute ordinary business at an annual general
meeting will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and
will shortly be available for inspection at
www.Hemscott.com/nsm.do.

Forward-looking statements
This document contains certain forward-looking statements within
the meaning of Section 21E of the US Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the US Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, with respect to certain of the Group's plans and its
current goals and expectations relating to its future financial
condition and performance. Barclays cautions readers that no
forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance and
that actual results could differ materially from those contained in
the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements
can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to
historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements sometimes
use words such as 'may', 'will', 'seek', 'continue', 'aim',
'anticipate', 'target', 'projected', 'expect', 'estimate',
'intend', 'plan', 'goal', 'believe', 'achieve' or other words of
similar meaning. Examples of forward-looking statements include,
among others, statements regarding the Group's future financial
position, income growth, assets, impairment charges and provisions,
business strategy, capital, leverage and other regulatory ratios,
payment of dividends (including dividend pay-out ratios), projected
levels of growth in the banking and financial markets, projected
costs or savings, original and revised commitments and targets in
connection with the Transform Programme and Group Strategy Update,
run-down of assets and businesses within Barclays Non-Core,
estimates of capital expenditures and plans and objectives for
future operations, projected employee numbers and other statements
that are not historical fact. By their nature, forward-looking
statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to
future events and circumstances. These may be affected by changes
in legislation, the development of standards and interpretations
under IFRS, evolving practices with regard to the interpretation
and
application of accounting and regulatory standards, the outcome
of current and future legal proceedings and regulatory
investigations, future levels of conduct provisions, the policies
and actions of governmental and regulatory authorities,
geopolitical risks and the impact of competition. In addition,
factors including (but not limited to) the following may have an
effect: capital, leverage and other regulatory rules (including
with regard to the future structure of the Group) applicable to
past, current and future periods; UK, US, Africa, Eurozone and
global macroeconomic and business conditions; the effects of
continued volatility in credit markets; market related risks such
as changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; effects of
changes in valuation of credit market exposures; changes in
valuation of issued securities; volatility in capital markets;
changes in credit ratings of the Group; the potential for one or
more countries exiting the Eurozone; the impact of EU and US
sanctions on Russia; the implementation of the Transform Programme;
and the success of future acquisitions, disposals and other
strategic transactions. A number of these influences and factors
are beyond the Group's control. As a result, the Group's actual
future results, dividend payments, and capital and leverage ratios
may differ materially from the plans, goals, and expectations set
forth in the Group's forward-looking statements. Additional risks
and factors are identified in our filings with the SEC including
our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended 31
December 2013, which are available on the SEC's website at
http://www.sec.gov; and in our Annual Report for the fiscal year
ended 31 December 2014, which is available on the Barclays Investor
Relations website at www.barclays.com/investorrelations.
Any forward-looking statements made herein speak only as of the
date they are made and it should not be assumed that they have been
revised or updated in the light of new information or future
events. Except as required by the Prudential Regulation Authority,
the Financial Conduct Authority, the London Stock Exchange plc (the
LSE) or applicable law, Barclays expressly disclaims any obligation
or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any
forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change
in Barclays' expectations with regard thereto or any change in
events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is
based. The reader should, however, consult any additional
disclosures that Barclays has made or may make in documents it has
published or may publish via the Regulatory News Service of the LSE
and/or has filed or may file with the SEC, including the 2014
20-F.
