The Issuer has filed a registration statement (including the Base Prospectus) and the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for this offering. Before you invest, you should read the Base Prospectus and the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement for this offering in that registration statement, and other documents the Issuer has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the Issuer and this offering. You may get these documents for free by searching the SEC online database (EDGAR) at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, you may obtain a copy of the Base Prospectus and the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement from Barclays Capital Inc. by calling +1 888 603 5847.    

It is expected that delivery of the Notes will be made for value on or about June 27, 2023, which will be the fifth (5th) business day in the United States following the date of pricing of the Notes. Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, purchases or sales of Notes in the secondary market generally are required to settle within two (2) business days (T+2), unless the parties to any such transaction expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers of the Notes who wish to trade the Notes on the date of the prospectus supplement or the next two (2) succeeding business days, will be required, because the Notes initially will settle within five (5) business days (T+5) in the United States, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Notes who wish to trade on the date of the prospectus supplement or the next two (2) succeeding business days should consult their own legal advisers.

No EEA or UK PRIIPs key information document (KID) has been prepared as the Notes are not available to retail in the EEA or the United Kingdom.
