Barclays Bank PLC (the "Issuer") has today launched invitations to holders of certain notes set out in the table below (the "Notes") issued by the Issuer to tender such Notes for purchase by the Issuer (the "Offers"), subject to applicable offer and distribution restrictions.
 
The Offers are being made on the terms and subject to the conditions and restrictions set out in a tender offer memorandum dated 4 January 2016 (the "Tender Offer Memorandum"). Capitalised terms used and not otherwise defined in this announcement have the meanings given in the Tender Offer Memorandum.

The Issuer reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, not to accept any Tender Instructions, not to purchase Notes or to extend, re-open, withdraw or terminate the Offers and to amend or waive any of the terms and conditions of the Offers in any manner, subject to applicable laws and regulations.
 
Tenders of Notes for purchase must be made to the Issuer in accordance with the procedures set out in the Tender Offer Memorandum. The Issuer intends to announce, inter alia, its decision whether to accept valid tenders of Notes for purchase pursuant to the Offers in the announcement following the Pricing Time.
 
Notes validly tendered may be revoked (in the limited circumstances in which revocation is permitted set out in the Tender Offer Memorandum) at any time prior to the Expiration Deadline, but not thereafter.
 
Rationale for the Offers
 
The Offers are made as part of the Issuer's ongoing liability management, with the intention of supporting the Group's ongoing transition to a holding company capital and term funding model in line with regulatory requirements.
 
Independently of the Offers, and as part of the Group's ongoing transition to a holding company capital and term funding model, Barclays PLC intends to continue issuing senior unsecured liabilities in all major currency markets and such issuance may follow in the near future. The Offers are not conditional upon any future capital markets issuance.
 
The Issuer has today also invited holders of certain USD denominated debt securities to tender those securities for purchase.
 
Purchase Price and Accrued Interest Payment
 
In respect of each Series of Notes, the relevant Purchase Price (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of the Notes rounded to the third decimal place (with 0.0005 being rounded upwards)) payable in respect of each €1,000 in principal amount of the Euro Notes and each £1,000 in principal amount of the Sterling Notes, as applicable, which are validly tendered and accepted for purchase by the Issuer pursuant to the Offers, will be determined by Barclays Bank PLC in its capacity as dealer manager (the "Dealer Manager") at or around 2:00 p.m. (London time) on 12 January 2016:
 
a)   in respect of each Series of the Euro Notes, by reference to the sum of (i) the relevant Purchase Spread in respect of that Series as specified in the table above and (ii) the relevant Benchmark Rate; and
 
b)   in respect of the Sterling Notes, by reference to the annualised sum of (i) the Purchase Spread specified in the table above and (ii) the Benchmark Security Rate.
 
The Purchase Price in respect of the Notes is intended to reflect a yield to maturity of the Notes on the Settlement Date based on the relevant Purchase Yield.
 
In respect of any Notes accepted for purchase, the Issuer will also pay an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid interest on the relevant Notes from, and including, the interest payment date for the Notes immediately preceding the Settlement Date up to, but excluding, the Settlement Date.
 
Tender Offer Period
 
The Offers commence on 4 January 2016 and will end at 4:00 p.m. (London time) on 11 January 2016 (the "Expiration Deadline") unless extended by the Issuer, in which case notification to that effect will be given by or on behalf of the Issuer by way of (i) publication through RNS and/or (ii) delivery of notices to the Clearing Systems for communication to Direct Participants. Such announcements may also be (i) made on the relevant Reuters International Insider Screen or (ii) made by the issue of a press release to a Notifying News Service.
 
Holders wishing to participate in the Offers must deliver, or arrange to have delivered on their behalf, a valid Tender Instruction that is received by the Tender Agent by the Expiration Deadline.

DISCLAIMER
 
This announcement must be read in conjunction with the Tender Offer Memorandum.  No offer or invitation to acquire or exchange any securities is being made pursuant to this announcement.  This announcement and the Tender Offer Memorandum contain important information, which must be read carefully before any decision is made with respect to the Offers. If any Noteholder is in any doubt as to the action it should take, it is recommended to seek its own legal, tax and financial advice, including as to any tax consequences, from its stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant or other independent financial adviser. Any individual or company whose Notes are held on its behalf by a broker, dealer, bank, custodian, trust company or other nominee must contact such entity if it wishes to participate in the Offers.  None of the Issuer, the Dealer Manager or the Tender Agent, or any person who controls, or is a director, officer, employee or agent of such persons or any affiliate of such persons, makes any recommendation as to whether Noteholders should participate in the Offers.
 
General
 
Neither this announcement, the Tender Offer Memorandum nor the electronic transmission thereof constitutes an offer to buy or the solicitation of an offer to sell Notes (and tenders of Notes for purchase pursuant to the Offers will not be accepted from Noteholders) in any circumstances in which such offer or solicitation is unlawful.  In those jurisdictions where the securities or other laws require an Offer to be made by a licensed broker or dealer and the Dealer Manager or any of its affiliates is such a licensed broker or dealer in any such jurisdiction, such Offer shall be deemed to be made by the Dealer Manager or such affiliate, as the case may be, on behalf of the Issuer in such jurisdiction.
 
In addition, each Noteholder participating in an Offer will be deemed to give certain representations in respect of the jurisdictions referred to below and generally as set out in "Procedures for Participating in the Offers" in the Tender Offer Memorandum.  Any tender of Notes for purchase pursuant to the Offers from a Noteholder that is unable to make these representations will not be accepted. 
 
Each of the Issuer, the Dealer Manager and the Tender Agent reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to investigate, in relation to any tender of Notes for purchase pursuant to an Offer, whether any such representation given by a Noteholder is correct and, if such investigation is undertaken and as a result the Issuer determines (for any reason) that such representation is not correct, such tender or submission may be rejected.
 
United States
 
The Offers are not being made and will not be made, directly or indirectly, in or into, or by use of the mails of, or by any means or instrumentality of interstate or foreign commerce of, or of any facilities of a national securities exchange of, the United States or to any U.S. Person (as defined in Regulation S of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (each a "U.S. Person")).  This includes, but is not limited to, facsimile transmission, electronic mail, telex, telephone, the internet and other forms of electronic communication.  Accordingly, copies of this announcement, the Tender Offer Memorandum and any other documents or materials relating to the Offers are not being, and must not be, directly or indirectly, mailed or otherwise transmitted, distributed or forwarded (including, without limitation, by custodians, nominees or trustees) in or into the United States or to a U.S. Person and the Notes cannot be tendered in the Offers by any such use, means, instrumentality or facility or from or within or by persons located or resident in the United States or by any U.S. Person.  Any purported tender of Notes in the Offers resulting directly or indirectly from a violation of these restrictions will be invalid and any purported tender of Notes made by a person located in the United States a U.S. Person, by any person acting for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person, or by any agent, fiduciary or other intermediary acting on a non-discretionary basis for a principal giving instructions from within the United States will be invalid and will not be accepted.
 
Each holder of Notes participating in an Offer will represent that it is not a U.S. Person located in the United States and is not participating in such Offer from the United States, or it is acting on a non-discretionary basis for a principal located outside the United States that is not giving an order to participate in such Offer from the United States and who is not a U.S. Person. For the purposes of this and the above paragraph, "United States" means the United States of America, its territories and possessions (including Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, Wake Island and the Northern Mariana Islands), any state of the United States of America and the District of Columbia.
