***Risk Factors***

***Please see the Preliminary Offering Documents for a description of certain risks related to this investment, including, but not limited to, the following:***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Depending
 on the performance of the Basket as measured shortly before the maturity date, your investment
 may result in a loss; there is no guaranteed return of principal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Your
 return on the notes may be less than the yield you could earn by owning a conventional fixed
 or floating rate debt security of comparable maturity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Changes
 in the level of one Basket Component may be offset by changes in the levels of the other
 Basket Components.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Payments
 on the notes, including repayment of principal, are subject to the credit risk of Barclays
 and to the risk of exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power or any other resolution measure by
 the relevant U.K. resolution authority. If Barclays becomes insolvent, is unable to pay its
 obligations, or any other resolution measure is exercised, you may lose your entire investment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The
 initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date is expected to be lower than their
 public offering price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· If
 you attempt to sell the notes prior to maturity, their market value may be lower than both
 the public offering price and the initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· A
 trading market is not expected to develop for the notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Our
 business, hedging and trading activities, and those of MLPF&S, BofAS and our respective
 affiliates (including trades in the securities included in the Basket Components), and any
 hedging and trading activities we, MLPF&S, BofAS or our respective affiliates engage
 in for our clients' accounts, may affect the market value and return of the notes and
 may create conflicts of interest with you.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· There
 may be potential conflicts of interest involving the calculation agents, which are Barclays
 and BofAS.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The
 relevant index sponsor may adjust a Basket Component in a way that affects its level, and
 the index sponsors have no obligation to consider your interests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· You
 will have no rights of a holder of the securities included in the Basket Components, and
 you will not be entitled to receive securities or dividends or other distributions by the
 issuers of those securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· While
 we, MLPF&S, BofAS or our respective affiliates may from time to time own the securities
 included in the Basket Components, except to the extent that the common stock of Barclays
 PLC is included in the FTSE<sup>®</sup> 100 Index, we, MLPF&S, BofAS and our respective
 affiliates do not control the issuers of those securities, and have not verified any disclosure
 made by any other company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Your
 return on the notes and the value of the notes may be affected by exchange rate movements
 and factors affecting the international securities markets, specifically changes in the countries
 represented by the Basket Components.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The
 U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the notes are uncertain.

***Final terms will be set on the pricing date within the given range for the specified Market-Linked Investment. Please see the Preliminary Offering Documents for complete product disclosure, including related risks and tax disclosure***
