Amended and Restated Final Terms

PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EEA RETAIL INVESTORS - The Securities are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to, and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to, any retail investor in the European Economic Area ("EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, the "MiFID II"); (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97, as amended, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of the MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (as amended, the "EU Prospectus Regulation"). Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "EU PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Securities or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Securities or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the EU PRIIPs Regulation.

PROHIBITION OF SALES TO SWISS RETAIL INVESTORS: The Securities are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and may not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in Switzerland. For these purposes a "retail investor" means a person who is not a professional or institutional client, as defined in article 4 para. 3, 4 and 5 and article 5 para. 1 and 2 Swiss Federal Act on Financial Services ("FinSA") of 15 June 2018, as amended. Consequently, no key information document required by FinSA for offering or selling the Securities or otherwise making them available to retail investors in Switzerland has been prepared and therefore, offering or selling the Securities or making them available to retail investors in Switzerland may be unlawful under FinSA.

None of the Securities constitute a participation in a collective investment scheme within the meaning of the Swiss Act on Collective Investment Schemes ("CISA") and are neither subject to the authorisation nor the supervision by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA ("FINMA") and investors do not benefit from the specific investor protection provided under the CISA. The Securities may not be publicly offered, directly or indirectly, in Switzerland within the meaning of FinSA and no application has or will be made to admit the Securities to trading on any trading venue (exchange or multilateral trading facility) in Switzerland. Neither the Base Prospectus, the Final Terms nor any other offering or marketing material relating to the Securities constitutes a prospectus pursuant to the FinSA, and neither the Base Prospectus, the Final Terms nor any other offering or marketing material relating to the Securities may be publicly distributed or otherwise made publicly available in Switzerland.

Neither the Base Prospectus nor these Final Terms or any other offering or marketing material relating to the Securities constitute a prospectus pursuant to the Swiss Financial Services Act ("FinSA"), and such documents may not be publicly distributed or otherwise made publicly available in Switzerland, unless the requirements of FinSA for such public distribution are complied with.

The Securities documented in these Final Terms are not being offered, sold or advertised, directly or indirectly, in Switzerland to retail clients (Privatkundinnen und -kunden) within the meaning of FinSA ("Retail Clients"). Neither these Final Terms nor any offering materials relating to the Securities may be available to Retail Clients in or from Switzerland. The offering of the Securities directly or indirectly, in Switzerland is only made by way of private placement by addressing the Securities (a) solely at investors classified as professional clients (professionelle Kunden) or institutional clients (institutionelle Kunden) within the meaning of FinSA ("Professional or Institutional Clients"), (b) at fewer than 500 Retail Clients, and/or (c) at investors acquiring securities to the value of at least CHF 100,000.

The Securities have not been, and will not be, at any time registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or with any securities regulatory authority of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States. The Securities may not be offered or sold within the United States, or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act ("Regulation S")) ("U.S. persons"), except in certain transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Trading in the Securities has not been approved by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission under the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act of 1936, as amended (the "Commodity Exchange Act"), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Securities are being offered and sold outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S.

What are the key risks that are specific to the Issuer?

The Barclays Bank Group has identified a broad range of risks to which its businesses are exposed. Material risks are those to which senior management pay particular attention and which could cause the delivery of the Barclays Bank Group's strategy, results of operations, financial condition and/or prospects to differ materially from expectations. Emerging risks are those which have unknown components, the impact of which could crystallise over a longer time period. In addition, certain other factors beyond the Barclays Bank Group's control, including escalation of global conflicts, acts of terrorism, natural disasters, pandemics and similar events, although not detailed below, could have a similar impact on the Barclays Bank Group. ·              Material existing and emerging risks potentially impacting more than one principal risk: In addition to material and emerging risks impacting the principal risks set out below, there are also material existing and emerging risks that potentially impact more than one of these principal risks. These risks are: (i) potentially unfavourable global and local economic and market conditions, as well as geopolitical developments; (ii) the impact of interest rate changes on the Barclays Bank Group's profitability; (iii) the competitive environments of the banking and financial services industry; (iv) the regulatory change agenda and impact on business model; (v) the impact of benchmark interest rate reforms on the Barclays Bank Group; and (vi) change delivery and execution risks. ·              Climate risk: Climate risk is the impact on financial (credit, market, treasury and capital) and operational risks arising from climate change through physical risks and risks associated with transitioning to a lower carbon economy. ·              Credit and Market risks: Credit risk is the risk of loss to the Barclays Bank Group from the failure of clients, customers or counterparties, to fully honour their obligations to members of the Barclays Bank Group. The Barclays Bank Group is subject to risks arising from changes in credit quality and recovery rates for loans and advances due from borrowers and counterparties. Market risk is the risk of loss arising from potential adverse changes in the value of the Barclays Bank Group's assets and liabilities from fluctuation in market variables. ·              Treasury and capital risk and the risk that the Issuer and the Barclays Bank Group are subject to substantial resolution powers: There are three primary types of treasury and capital risk faced by the Barclays Bank Group which are (1) capital risk - the risk that the Barclays Bank Group has an insufficient level or composition of capital to support its normal business activities and to meet its regulatory capital requirements under normal operating environments and stressed conditions; (2) liquidity risk - the risk that the Barclays Bank Group is unable to meet its contractual or contingent obligations or that it does not have the appropriate amount of stable funding and liquidity to support its assets, which may also be impacted by credit rating changes; and (3) interest rate risk in the banking book - the risk that the Barclays Bank Group is exposed to capital or income volatility because of a mismatch between the interest rate exposures of its (non-traded) assets and liabilities. Under the Banking Act 2009, substantial powers are granted to the Bank of England (or, in certain circumstances, HM Treasury), in consultation with the United Kingdom Prudential Regulation Authority, the UK Financial Conduct Authority and HM Treasury, as appropriate as part of a special resolution regime. These powers enable the Bank of England (or any successor or replacement thereto and/or such other authority in the United Kingdom with the ability to exercise the UK Bail-in Power) (the "Resolution Authority") to implement various resolution measures and stabilisation options (including, but not limited to, the bail-in tool) with respect to a UK bank or investment firm and certain of its affiliates (as at the date of the Registration Document, including the Issuer) in circumstances in which the Resolution Authority is satisfied that the relevant resolution conditions are met. ·              Operational and model risks: Operational risk is the risk of loss to the Barclays Bank Group from inadequate or failed processes or systems, human factors or due to external events where the root cause is not due to credit or market risks. Model risk is the potential for adverse consequences from decisions based on incorrect or misused model outputs and reports. ·              Compliance, reputation and legal risks and legal, competition and regulatory matters: Compliance risk is the risk of poor outcomes for, or harm to, customers, clients and markets, arising from the delivery of the Barclays Bank Group's products and services (conduct risk) and the risk to Barclays, its clients, customers or markets from a failure to comply with the Laws, Rules and Regulations applicable to the firm. Reputation risk is the risk that an action, transaction, investment, event, decision or business relationship will reduce trust in the Barclays Bank Group's integrity and/or competence. The Barclays Bank Group conducts activities in a highly regulated global market which exposes it and its employees to legal risk arising from (i) the multitude of laws, rules and regulations that apply to the businesses it operates, which are highly dynamic, may vary between jurisdictions and/or conflict, and may be unclear in their application to particular circumstances especially in new and emerging areas; and (ii) the diversified and evolving nature of the Barclays Bank Group's businesses and business practices. In each case, this exposes the Barclays Bank Group and its employees to the risk of loss or the imposition of penalties, damages or fines from the failure of members of the Barclays Bank Group to meet applicable laws, rules, regulations or contractual requirements or to assert or defend their intellectual property rights. Legal risk may arise in relation to any number of the material existing and emerging risks summarised above.

KEY INFORMATION ON THE SECURITIES

What are the main features of the Securities?

Type and class of Securities being offered and admitted to trading, including security identification numbers The Securities are derivative securities in the form of notes issued in global bearer form and will be uniquely identified by: Series number: NX00406207; Tranche number: 1; ISIN: XS2800952736; Common Code: 280095273. The Securities are cleared and settled through Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. and/or Clearstream Banking société anonyme.

Currency, denomination, issue size and term of the Securities The Securities will be denominated in GBP (the "Currency"). The specified denomination per Security is GBP 1. The issue size is GBP 4,000,000.00 and the issue price is 100.00% of par. The issue date is 21 August 2024 and the redemption date is 21 August 2029 (the "Redemption Date"). Such date may be postponed if the determination of any value used to calculate an amount payable under the Securities is delayed.

Rights attached to the Securities Each Security includes a right to a potential return and an amount payable on redemption, together with certain ancillary rights such as the right to receive notice of certain determinations and events and to vote on future amendments. The potential return on the Securities will be a redemption amount linked to the change in value of the GBP Preference Share issued by Teal Investments Limited (Class number: PEISC716), the "Underlying Preference Share", the value of which is dependent on the performance of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset. Information on the Underlying Preference Share can be found on https://barxis.barcap.com/GB/1/en/home.app. The Securities will not bear interest.

Final redemption in respect of the Securities Unless previously redeemed or purchased and cancelled, the Securities will be redeemed by the Issuer by payment on the Redemption Date of a cash amount per Calculation Amount in the Currency equal to (i) the Calculation Amount multiplied by (ii) the Preference Share Valuefinal divided by the Preference Share Valueinitial. Where: ·              Calculation Amount: Calculations in respect of amounts payable under the Securities are made by reference to the "Calculation Amount", being GBP 1.00 per Security. ·              Preference Share Valuefinal: the value of the Underlying Preference Share on 14 August 2029, being the "Final Valuation Date". The Final Valuation Date is subject to adjustment. ·              Preference Share Valueinitial: the Underlying Preference Share on 21 August 2024, being the "Initial Valuation Date". The Initial Valuation Date is subject to adjustment Value of the Underlying Preference Share The value of the Underlying Preference Share will be calculated in accordance with the following: If: The Final Valuation Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset is greater than or equal to the Final Barrier of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset: Value of the Underlying Preference Share = the Final Autocall Settlement Percentage (being 135.250%) multiplied by the Calculation Amount (being GBP 100.00). If: The Final Valuation Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset is greater than or equal to the Knock-in Barrier Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset: Value of the Underlying Preference Share = 100% multiplied by the Calculation Amount. If: The Final Valuation Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset is less than the Knock-in Barrier Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset: Value of the Underlying Preference Share = the Final Valuation Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset divided by the Strike Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset and then multiplied by the Calculation Amount (being GBP 100.00). Where: ·              Calculation Amount: GBP 100.00. ·              Final Autocall Settlement Percentage: 135.250% ·              Final Barrier: in respect of an Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset and the final valuation date, an amount which is calculated as 85.000% multiplied by the Initial Price of that Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset. ·              Final Valuation Price: in respect of an Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset, the closing price or level of such Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset on 14 August 2029, subject to adjustment. ·              Initial Price: in respect of an Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset, the closing price or level of such Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset on, subject to adjustment. ·              Knock-in Barrier Percentage: 65.000%. ·              Knock-in Barrier Price: in respect of an Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset, an amount which is calculated as 65.000% multiplied by the Initial Price of that Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset. ·              Strike Price: in respect of an Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset, an amount which is calculated as 100.000% multiplied by the Initial Price of that Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset. ·              Trigger Event: the closing price or level of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset on the Final Valuation Date is less than the Knock-in Barrier Price. ·              Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset: FTSE 100 INDEX. Early redemption of the Underlying Preference Shares following an autocall event: If the closing level of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset observed in respect of an Autocall Valuation Date is greater than or equal to its corresponding Autocall Barrier in respect of such Autocall Valuation Date, the Underlying Preference Shares will be redeemed on the Autocall Early Redemption Date immediately following such Autocall Valuation Date. In such an event, the value of the Underlying Preference Share will be equal to the Autocall Early Cash Settlement Percentage corresponding to the relevant Autocall Valuation Date multiplied by the Calculation Amount (being GBP 100.00), payable on the relevant Autocall Early Redemption Date. The 'Autocall Barrier' of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset is calculated as the Autocall Barrier Percentage specified in the table below multiplied by the Initial Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset. i Autocall Valuation Date(s) Autocall Early Redemption Date Autocall Barrier Percentage(s) Autocall Early Cash Settlement Percentage(s) 1 14 August 2026 24 August 2026 105.000% 114.10000% 2 16 November 2026 24 November 2026 105.000% 115.8625% 3 15 February 2027 23 February 2027 105.000% 117.6250% 4 14 May 2027 24 May 2027 105.000% 119.3875% 5 16 August 2027 24 August 2027 100.000% 121.1500% 6 15 November 2027 23 November 2027 100.000% 122.9125% 7 14 February 2028 22 February 2028 100.000% 124.6750% 8 15 May 2028 23 May 2028 100.000% 126.4375% 9 14 August 2028 22 August 2028 95.000% 128.20000% 10 14 November 2028 22 November 2028 95.000% 129.9625% 11 14 February 2029 22 February 2029 95.000% 131.7250% 12 14 May 2029 22 May 2029 95.000% 133.4875% Early redemption in respect of the Securities Securities may at the option of the Issuer (in the case of (i) or (ii)) or shall (in the case of (iii)) be redeemed earlier than the scheduled redemption date (i) if performance becomes unlawful or impracticable, (ii) following the occurrence of an additional disruption event which may include, but not be limited to, a change in applicable law or a currency disruption event, or (iii) following the occurrence of the redemption the Underlying Preference Shares (other than by scheduled redemption pursuant to its terms). The early redemption amount due in respect of each Security will be calculated in the same way as if the Securities were redeemed on the scheduled redemption date save that for such purpose the final value in respect of the Underlying Preference Share shall be its value as of the day on which it is determined that the Security will be early redeemed, all as determined by the determination agent in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner.

Status of the Securities: The Securities are direct, unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of the Issuer and rank equally among themselves.

Description of restrictions on free transferability of the Securities: Securities are offered and sold outside the United States to non-US persons in reliance on 'Regulation S' and must comply with transfer restrictions with respect to the United States. Securities held in a clearing system will be transferred in accordance with the rules, procedures and regulations of that clearing system. Subject to the foregoing, the Securities will be freely transferable.

Where will the Securities be traded?

Application is expected to be made by the Issuer (or on its behalf) for the Securities to be admitted to trading on the Regulated Market of the London Stock Exchange with effect from 21 August 2024.

What are the key risks that are specific to the Securities?

The Securities are subject to the following key risks: ·              Depending on the performance of the Underlying Preference Share, you could lose some or all of your investment. The return on the Securities depends on the change in value of the Underlying Preference Share, which may fluctuate up or down depending on the performance of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s). Past performance of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s) should not be taken as an indication of future performance. If the value of the Underlying Preference Share on final valuation is less than upon initial valuation, you will lose some or all of your investment. The Securities may drop in value after issuance and therefore if you sell them prior to maturity in the secondary market (if any) you may lose some of your investment. ·              You are subject to the credit risk of the Issuer. As the Securities do not constitute a deposit and are not insured or guaranteed by any government or agency or under the UK Government credit guarantee scheme, all payments to be made by the Issuer under the Securities are subject to its financial position and its ability to meet its obligations. The Securities constitute unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of the Issuer and rank pari passu with each and all other current and future unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of the Issuer. Further, under the Banking Act 2009, if the relevant UK resolution authority is satisfied that the Issuer is failing or likely to fail then, subject to certain other conditions being satisfied, the Issuer may be subject to action taken by the resolution authority, including potentially the write down of claims of unsecured creditors of the Issuer (potentially including claims of investors in the Securities) and the conversion of unsecured debt claims (potentially including the Securities) to other instruments (e.g. equity shares), the transfer of all or part of the Issuer's business to another entity, or other resolution measures. The insolvency of the Issuer and/or any action taken by the resolution authority may lead to a partial or total loss of the invested capital. ·              Taxation risks: The levels and basis of taxation on the Securities and any reliefs for such taxation will depend on your individual circumstances and could change at any time over the life of the Securities. This could have adverse consequences for you and you should therefore consult your own tax advisers as to the tax consequences to you of transactions involving the Securities. ·              Risks relating to the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s): As an Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset is an equity index the Underlying Preference Share may be subject to the risk of fluctuations in market interest rates, currency exchange rates, equity prices, inflation, the value and volatility of the relevant equity index, and also to economic, financial, regulatory, political, terrorist, military or other events in one or more jurisdictions, including factors affecting capital markets generally. This could have an adverse effect on the value of the Underlying Preference Share which, in turn, will have an adverse effect on the value of your Securities. The value of the Underlying Preference Share depends on the level of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s) reaching or crossing a 'barrier' on a specified date. If the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s) performs in such a way so that the Final Valuation Price is less than the Knock-in Barrier Price on such specified date, the value of and return on the Underlying Preference Share and, in turn, the Securities may be dramatically less that if the level of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s) had reached or crossed the 'barrier'. ·              Risks of a lack of secondary market or sale in such market: There may not be a secondary market for the Securities and, therefore, you may not be able to sell them prior to their scheduled maturity or only for a substantial loss. ·              Reinvestment risk/loss of yield: Following an early redemption of your Securities for any reason, you may be unable to reinvest the redemption proceeds at an effective yield as high as the yield on the Securities being redeemed which may have an adverse effect on your investment prospects. ·              Risks relating to potential adjustments to the terms of the Underlying Preference Share: You will not have any rights in respect of the Underlying Preference Share or the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s). The terms of the Underlying Preference Share may be adjusted in respect of, for example, valuation of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s) which may be exercised by the issuer of the Underlying Preference Share(s) in a manner which has an adverse effect on the market value and/or amount repayable in respect of the Securities.
