What is the Total Return on the Notes at Maturity Assuming a Range of Performance for the Reference Asset?

The following table illustrates the hypothetical total return at maturity on the Notes.  The “total return” as used in this pricing supplement is the number, expressed as a percentage, that results from comparing the payment at maturity per $1,000 principal amount Note to $1,000.  The hypothetical total returns and examples set forth below are based on the initial price of USD 100.39/barrel and assume the final prices as set forth below.  The actual final price will be determined on the final valuation date.  The hypothetical total returns set forth below are for illustrative purposes only and may not be the actual total returns applicable to a purchaser of the Notes.  The numbers appearing in the following table and examples have been rounded for ease of analysis.  The examples below do not take into account any tax consequences from investing in the Notes.

1        The final price will be the settlement price on the final valuation date as described under “Reference Asset” in this pricing supplement.

PS-1

Hypothetical Examples of Amounts Payable at Maturity

The following examples illustrate how the total returns set forth in the table above are calculated.

Example 1: The price of the reference asset increases from an initial price of USD 100.39/barrel to a final price of USD 107.42/barrel, resulting in a reference asset return of 7.00%.

Because the settlement price of Brent Crude was equal to or greater than the barrier level on the final valuation date, and the reference asset return of 7.00% is greater than the contingent minimum return and less than the maximum return on the Notes, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $1,070.00 per $1,000 principal amount Note, calculated as follows:

$1,000 + [$1,000 x Reference Asset Return]

$1,000 + [$1,000 x 7.00%] = $1,070.00

The total return on the investment of the Notes is 7.00%.

Example 2: The price of the reference asset increases from an initial price of USD 100.39/barrel to a final price of USD 140.55/barrel, resulting in a reference asset return of 40.00%.

Because the settlement price of Brent Crude was equal to or greater than the barrier level on the final valuation date, and the reference asset return of 40.00% is greater than the contingent minimum return and greater than the maximum return on the Notes, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $1,150.00 per $1,000 principal amount Note, calculated as follows:

$1,000 + [$1,000 x Maximum Return]

$1,000 + [$1,000 x 15.00%] = $1,150.00

The total return on the investment of the Notes is 15.00% and subject to the maximum return.

Example 3: The price of the reference asset decreases from the initial price of USD 100.39/barrel to a final price of USD 90.35/barrel, resulting in a reference asset return of -10.00%.

Because the settlement price of Brent Crude was equal to or greater than the barrier level on the final valuation date, and the reference asset return of -10.00% is less than the contingent minimum return, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $1,065.00  per $1,000 principal amount Note, calculated as follows:

$1,000 + [$1,000 x Contingent Minimum Return]

$1,000 + [$1,000 x 6.50%] = $1,065.00

The total return of the investment of the Notes is 6.50%.

Example 4: The price of the reference asset decreases from the initial price of USD 100.39/barrel to a final price of USD 60.23/barrel, resulting in a reference asset return of -40.00%.

Because the settlement price of Brent Crude was below the barrier level on the final valuation date, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $600.00 per $1,000 principal amount Note, calculated as follows:

$1,000 + [$1,000 x Reference Asset Return]

$1,000 + [$1,000 x -40.00%] = $ 600.00

The total return on the investment of the Notes is -40.00%.

Selected Purchase Considerations

·                   Market Disruption Events and Adjustments —The payment at maturity, the final valuation date, the maturity date, and the settlement price of the reference asset are subject to adjustment as described in the following sections of the prospectus supplement:

o                 For a description of what constitutes a market disruption event as well as the consequences of that market disruption event, see “Reference Assets—Commodities—Market Disruption Events Relating to Securities with a Commodity as the Reference Asset”; and

o                 For a description of further adjustments that may affect the reference asset, see “Reference Assets—Commodities—Discontinuation of Trading; Alteration of Method of Calculation”.

·                   Appreciation Potential —The Notes provide the opportunity to enhance returns, to the extent the settlement price of Brent Crude is not below the barrier level on the final valuation date, by entitling you to a return equal to the greater of the contingent minimum return and the reference asset return, up to the maximum return of 15.00%, or $1,150.00 for every $1,000 principal amount Note.

·                   Limited Protection Against Loss —Payment at maturity of the principal amount of the Notes is protected against a decline in the reference asset return but only to the extent that the settlement price of Brent Crude does not fall below the barrier level on the final valuation date. Because the Notes are our senior unsecured obligations, payment of any amount at maturity is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due and is not guaranteed by any third party. For a description of risks with respect to the ability of Barclays Bank PLC to satisfy its obligations as they come due, see “Selected Risk Considerations—Credit of Issuer” in this pricing supplement.

·                   Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — The material tax consequences of your investment in the Notes are summarized below.  The discussion below supplements the discussion under “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” in the accompanying prospectus supplement.  As described in the prospectus supplement, this section applies to you only if you are a U.S. holder (as defined in the accompanying prospectus supplement) and you hold your Notes 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 Notes in the initial issuance of the Notes).

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

In the opinion of our special tax counsel, Sullivan & Cromwell LLP, it would be reasonable to treat your Notes in the manner described above.  This opinion assumes that the description of the terms of the Notes 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 Notes, possibly with retroactive effect.  Other alternative treatments for your Notes may also be possible under current law.   For example, it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service could assert that you should be treated as if you owned the reference asset.  Under such a characterization, it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service could assert that Section 1256 of the Internal Revenue Code should apply to your Notes .  If Section 1256 were to apply to your Notes , gain or loss recognized with respect to your Notes would be treated as 60% long-term capital gain or loss and 40% short-term capital gain or loss, without regard to your holding period in the Notes .  You would also be required to mark your Notes to market at the end of each taxable year (i.e., recognize gain or loss as if the Notes had been sold for fair market value) .

For a further discussion of the tax treatment of your Notes as well as other 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 Notes.  For additional, important considerations related to tax risks associated with investing in the Notes, you should also examine the discussion in “Selected Risk Considerations—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

PS-3

Notes), 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 Notes.

Selected Risk Considerations

An investment in the Notes involves significant risks. Investing in the Notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the reference asset or any futures contracts relating to the reference asset.  These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” sections of the prospectus supplement, including but not limited to the risk factors discussed under the following headings:

o                 “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to All Securities”;

o                 “Risk Factors—Additional Risks Relating to Notes Which Pay No Interest”;

o                 “Risk Factors—Additional Risks Relating to Securities with a Maximum Return, Maximum Rate, Ceiling or Cap”;

o                 “Risk Factors—Additional Risks Relating to Notes Which Are Not Characterized as Being Fully Principal Protected or Are Characterized as Being Partially Protected or Contingently Protected”;

o                 “Risk Factors—Additional Risks Relating to Securities with a Barrier Percentage or a Barrier Level”; and

o                 “Risk Factors—Additional Risks Relating to Securities with Reference Assets That Are Commodities, an Index Containing Commodities, Shares or Other Interests in an Exchange-Traded Fund Invested in Commodities or Based in Part on Commodities”.

In addition to the risks discussed under the headings above, you should consider the following:

·                   Your Investment in the Notes May Result in a Loss —The Notes do not guarantee any return of principal.  The return on the Notes at maturity is linked to the performance of the reference asset and will depend on whether, and the extent to which, the reference asset return is positive or negative.  If the settlement price of Brent Crude declines below the barrier level on the final valuation date, your investment will be fully exposed to any decline in the reference asset from the initial price and you may lose up to 100% of your initial investment

·                   Your Maximum Gain on the Notes Is Limited to the Maximum Return —If the final price of the reference asset is greater than the initial price, for each $1,000 principal amount Note, you will receive at maturity $1,000 plus an additional amount that will not exceed a predetermined percentage of the principal amount, regardless of the appreciation in the reference asset, which may be significant.  We refer to this percentage as the maximum return, which is set to equal 15.00%.

·                   No Interest Payments —As a holder of the Notes, you will not receive interest payments.

·                   Lack of Liquidity — The Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange.  Barclays Capital Inc. and other affiliates of Barclays Bank PLC intend to make a secondary market for the Notes but are not required to do so, and may discontinue any such secondary market making at any time, without notice.  Barclays Capital Inc. may at any time hold unsold inventory, which may inhibit the development of a secondary market for the Notes. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the Notes easily.  Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the Notes, the price at which you may be able to trade your Notes 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 Notes. The Notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments.  Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your Notes to maturity.

·                   Credit of Issuer — The Notes are senior 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 Notes depends on the ability of Barclays Bank PLC to satisfy its obligations as they come due.  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 Notes.

·                   Potential Conflicts — We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the Notes, including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the Notes.  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 Notes.

·                   Taxes— The U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Notes is uncertain and the Internal Revenue Service could assert that the Notes 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 Notes and whether all or part of the gain you may recognize upon the sale or maturity of an instrument such as the Notes 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 Notes (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 Notes even though you will not receive any payments with respect to the Notes 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 Notes.

PS-4

·                   The Payment at Maturity on Your Notes is Not Based on the Price of Brent Crude at Any Time Other than the Final Valuation Date —Whether the barrier level has been breached and the reference asset return will be based solely on the settlement price of Brent Crude on the final valuation date relative to the initial price (subject to adjustments as described in the prospectus supplement). Therefore, if the price of Brent Crude drops precipitously on the final valuation date, the payment at maturity, if any, that you will receive for your Notes may be significantly less than it would otherwise have been had the payment at maturity been linked to the price of Brent Crude at a time prior to such drop. Although the price of Brent Crude on the maturity date or at other times during the life of your Notes may be higher than the settlement price of Brent Crude on the final valuation date, you will not benefit from the price of Brent Crude at any time other than on the final valuation date.

·                   Suitability of the Notes for Investment —You should reach a decision to invest in the Notes after carefully considering, with your advisors, the suitability of the Notes in light of your investment objectives and the specific information set out in this pricing supplement, the prospectus supplement, and the prospectus. Neither the Issuer nor Barclays Capital Inc. makes any recommendation as to the suitability of the Notes for investment.

·                   The Notes May Be Subject to Certain Risks Specific to Brent Crude — Brent Crude is an energy-related commodity.  Consequently, in addition to factors affecting commodities generally that are described herein and in the prospectus supplement, the Notes may be subject to a number of additional factors specific to energy-related commodities that might cause price volatility.  These may include, among others:

o                 changes in the level of industrial and commercial activity with high levels of energy demand;

o                 disruptions in the supply chain or in the production or supply of other energy sources;

o                 price changes in alternative sources of energy;

o                 adjustments to inventory;

o                 variations in production and shipping costs;

o                 costs associated with regulatory compliance, including environmental regulations; and

o                 changes in industrial, government and consumer demand, both in individual consuming nations and internationally.

These factors interrelate in complex ways, and the effect of one factor may offset or enhance the effect of another factor and may adversely affect the market value of the Notes.

·                   Many Economic and Market Factors Will Impact the Value of the Notes —In addition to the price of the reference asset on any day, the value of the Notes will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each other, including:

o                 the expected volatility of the price of the reference asset, and of the prices of exchange-traded futures contracts for the purchase or delivery of the reference asset;

o                 the time to maturity of the Notes;

o                 interest and yield rates in the market generally;

o                 a variety of economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events;

o                 global supply and demand for the reference asset, and supply and demand for exchange-traded futures contracts for the purchase or delivery of the reference asset;

o                 supply and demand for the Notes; and

o                 our creditworthiness, including actual or anticipated downgrades in our credit ratings.

·                   Holding the Notes is not the Same as Owning Brent Crude, Futures Contracts for Brent Crude or Certain Other Commodity Related Contracts Directly – The return on your Notes will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually purchased Brent Crude, futures contracts for Brent Crude or exchange-traded or over-the-counter instruments based on the price of Brent Crude. You will not have any rights that holders of such assets or instruments have.

·                   Prices of Commodities and Commodity Futures Contracts are Highly Volatile and May Change Unpredictably — Commodity prices are highly volatile and, in many sectors, have experienced unprecedented historical volatility in the past few years. Commodity prices are affected by numerous factors including: changes in supply and demand relationships (whether actual, perceived, anticipated, unanticipated or unrealized); weather; agriculture; trade; fiscal, monetary and exchange control programs; domestic and foreign political and economic events and policies; disease; pestilence; technological developments; changes in interest rates, whether through governmental action or market movements; monetary and other governmental policies, action and inaction; macroeconomic or geopolitical and military events, including political instability in some oil-producing countries; and natural or nuclear disasters. Those events tend to affect prices worldwide, regardless of the location of the event. Market expectations about these events and speculative activity also cause prices to fluctuate. These factors may adversely affect the performance of the reference asset and, as a result, the market value of the Notes, and the payment you will receive on the Notes, if any.

Moreover, the prices of many of the commodities, particularly energy and agricultural commodities, reached historically high levels in 2009.  Since reaching such highs, prices have fallen precipitously, to approximately 25% of their historic highs, in some cases, and prices have experienced unprecedented volatility since that time.  In the case of many commodities, recent prices have also risen substantially, although they have not reached their historically high levels.  There is no assurance that

PS-5

prices will again reach their historically high levels or that volatility will subside.  It is possible that lower prices, or increased volatility, will adversely affect the performance of reference asset and, as a result, the market value of the Notes.

·                   Suspension or Disruptions of Market Trading in Commodities and Related Futures May Adversely Affect the Value of the Notes — The commodity futures markets are subject to temporary distortions or other disruptions due to various factors, including the lack of liquidity in the markets, the participation of speculators and government regulation and intervention.  In addition, U.S. futures exchanges and some foreign exchanges have regulations that limit the amount of fluctuation in some futures contract prices that may occur during a single business day.  These limits are generally referred to as “daily price fluctuation limits” and the maximum or minimum price of a contract on any given day as a result of these limits is referred to as a “limit price”.  Once the limit price has been reached in a particular contract, no trades may be made at a price beyond the limit, or trading may be limited for a set period of time.  Limit prices have the effect of precluding trading in a particular contract or forcing the liquidation of contracts at potentially disadvantageous times or prices.  These circumstances could adversely affect the value of the reference asset, therefore, the value of the Notes.

·                   Futures Contracts on Brent Crude Oil are the Benchmark Crude Oil in European Markets— Because futures contracts on Brent crude oil are the benchmark crude oil contracts in European markets, the reference asset will be affected by economic conditions in Europe, as well as by global economic conditions. A decline in economic activity in Europe, or globally, could result in decreased demand for crude oil and for futures contracts on crude oil, which could adversely affect the value of the reference asset and, therefore, the Notes.

·                   The Notes Offer Exposure to Futures Contracts and Not Direct Exposure to Physical Commodities — The Notes will reflect a return based on the performance of the relevant nearby ICE-traded brent crude futures contract and do not provide exposure to brent crude spot prices.  The price of a commodity futures contract reflects the expected value of the commodity upon delivery in the future, whereas the spot price of a commodity reflects the immediate delivery value of the commodity.  A variety of factors can lead to a disparity between the expected future price of a commodity and the spot price at a given point in time, such as the cost of storing the commodity for the term of the futures contract, interest charges incurred to finance the purchase of the commodity and expectations concerning supply and demand for the commodity.  The price movement of a futures contract is typically correlated with the movements of the spot price of the reference commodity, but the correlation is generally imperfect and price moves in the spot market may not be reflected in the futures market (and vice versa).  Accordingly, the Notes may underperform a similar investment that reflects the return on the physical commodity.

·                   Changes in Law or Regulation Relating to Commodity Futures Contracts May Adversely Affect the Market Value of the Notes and Therefore the Amounts Payable on your Notes — Commodity futures contracts, such as the reference asset, are subject to legal and regulatory regimes that are in the process of changing in the United States and, in some cases, in other countries.  The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, commonly known as the “Dodd-Frank Act”, provides for substantial changes in the regulation of the futures and over-the-counter derivatives markets.  Among other things, the Dodd-Frank Act is intended to limit speculation and increase transparency in the commodity derivative markets and regulate the over-the-counter derivatives markets. The legislation requires regulators, including the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”), to adopt rules on a variety of issues and many provisions of the legislation have not yet become effective, pending the effective dates of such rules and, in some cases, the adoption of additional rules.  Therefore, the Dodd-Frank regulatory scheme has not yet been fully implemented, although certain requirements, including registration and reporting requirements, as well as centralized clearing requirements for certain products and market participants, are in effect.   However, the ultimate impact of the regulations on the markets and market participants cannot yet be determined.

Among other things, the legislation requires that most over-the-counter transactions be executed on organized exchanges or facilities and be cleared through regulated clearing houses, and requires registration of, and imposes regulations on, swap dealers and major swap participants. The legislation also requires the CFTC to adopt rules with respect to the establishment of limits on futures and swap positions that are not entered into or maintained for “bona fide” hedging purposes, as defined in the legislation, and the CFTC had previously adopted such rules. The legislation also requires the CFTC to apply its position limits across the futures positions held by a market participant on any exchange or trading facility, together with its positions in swaps that are “economically equivalent” to the specified exchange-traded futures that are subject to the position limits.  The enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act, and the CFTC’s adoption of rules on position limits, could limit the extent to which entities can enter into transactions in exchange-traded futures contracts as well as related swaps and could make participation in the markets more burdensome and expensive.  Any such limitations could restrict or prevent our ability to hedge our obligations under the Notes.  Industry trade groups filed a lawsuit against the CFTC challenging the rules adopted by the CFTC on position limits. On September 28, 2012, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia granted a summary judgment motion in favor of the industry trade groups that vacated and remanded the position limit rules adopted by the CFTC. However, the CFTC may contest this ruling.  If the ruling is reversed, the proposed position limits may become effective in the future.  In addition, if the ruling is not reversed, the CFTC will promulgate further rules, which may be similar to the rules previously adopted.  The rules ultimately adopted by the CFTC will likely limit transactions in the futures and over-the-counter derivative markets and could substantially reduce liquidity and increase market volatility in the commodities futures contracts such as the reference asset. This could in turn adversely affect the prices of such contracts and, in turn, the market value of the Notes and the amounts payable on the Notes.  In addition, other parts of the legislation, by increasing regulation of, and imposing additional costs on, swap transactions, could reduce trading in the swap market and

PS-6

therefore in the futures markets, which would further restrict liquidity, increase volatility and adversely affect prices, which could in turn adversely affect the value of the reference asset.

Other regulatory organizations have proposed, and in the future may propose, further reforms similar to those enacted by the Dodd-Frank Act or other legislation which could have an adverse impact on the liquidity and depth of the commodities, futures and derivatives markets.  For example, the European Commission recently published a proposal developed by the European Securities and Markets Authority (“ESMA)”, which updates the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive, commonly known as “MiFID II,” and the Markets in Financial Instruments Regulation, commonly known as “MiFIR.”  The scope of the final regulations and the degree to which member states will be allowed discretion in implementing the directive is yet to be seen.  If these regulations are adopted, including, for example, regulations requiring position limits, they could substantially reduce liquidity and increase volatility in the commodities futures contracts such as the reference asset, which could adversely affect the prices of such contracts and, in turn, the market value of the Notes and the amounts payable on the Notes at maturity.   The European Commission has also adopted the European Market Infrastructure Regulation (“EMIR”), which requires many OTC derivatives to be centrally cleared and, together with technical standards published and to be published by ESMA, will establish margin and capital requirements for non-centrally cleared OTC derivatives.   There exists potential for inconsistency between regulations issued by the CFTC and technical standards adopted under EMIR, which could lead to market fragmentation.

·                   The Estimated Value of Your Notes 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 Notes on the pricing 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.

·                   The Estimated Value of Your Notes is Lower Than the Initial Issue Price of Your Notes— The estimated value of your Notes on the pricing date is lower than the initial issue price of your Notes.  The difference between the initial issue price of your Notes and the estimated value of the Notes 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 Notes, the estimated cost which we may incur in hedging our obligations under the Notes, and estimated development and other costs which we may incur in connection with the Notes.

·                   The Estimated Value of the Notes 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 Notes on the pricing 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 Notes may not be consistent with those of other financial institutions which may be purchasers or sellers of Notes in the secondary market.  As a result, the secondary market price of your Notes may be materially different from the estimated value of the Notes determined by reference to our internal pricing models.

·                   The Estimated Value of Your Notes Is Not a Prediction of the Prices at Which You May Sell Your Notes in the Secondary Market, if any, and Such Secondary Market Prices, If Any, Will Likely be Lower Than the Initial Issue Price of Your Notes and Maybe Lower Than the Estimated Value of Your Notes— The estimated value of the Notes 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 Notes 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 Notes 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 Notes.  Further, as secondary market prices of your Notes 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 Notes such as fees, commissions, discounts, and the costs of hedging our obligations under the Notes, secondary market prices of your Notes will likely be lower than the initial issue price of your Notes.  As a result, the price, at which Barclays Capital Inc., other affiliates of ours or third parties may be willing to purchase the Notes from you in secondary market transactions, if any, will likely be lower than the price you paid for your Notes, and any sale prior to the maturity date could result in a substantial loss to you.

·                   The Temporary Price at Which We May Initially Buy The Notes 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 Notes— Assuming that all relevant factors remain constant after the pricing date, the price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may initially buy or sell the Notes in the secondary market (if Barclays Capital Inc. makes a market in the Notes, 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 Notes on the pricing date, as well as the secondary market value of the Notes, for a temporary period after the initial issue date of the Notes.  The

price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may initially buy or sell the Notes 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 Notes.

·                   We and Our Affiliates May Engage in Various Activities or Make Determinations That Could Materially Affect Your Notes in Various Ways and Create Conflicts of Interest— We and our affiliates establish the offering price of the Notes 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 Notes, could present it with significant conflicts of interest with the role of Barclays Bank PLC, as issuer of the Notes. For example, Barclays Capital Inc. or its representatives may derive compensation or financial benefit from the distribution of the Notes and such compensation or financial benefit may serve as an incentive to sell these Notes 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 Notes.  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 Notes.  Such market making, trading activities, other investment banking and financial services may negatively impact the value of the Notes.  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 Notes.  We and our affiliates have no obligation to take the needs of any buyer, seller or holder of the Notes into account in conducting these activities.
