Legal Entity Identifier: 2IGI19DL77OX0HC3ZE78

Issue of GBP 1,961,000 Preference Share Linked Notes due December 2025

(To be consolidated, become fungible with and form a single series with the existing
GBP 7,000,000 Preference Share Linked Notes due December 2025 issued on 24
December 2019)
under a US$7,500,000,000 Note Issuance Programme

INVESTING IN THE NOTES PUTS YOUR CAPITAL AT RISK. YOU MAY LOSE SOME OR
ALL OF YOUR INVESTMENT.

The Offering Memorandum referred to below (as completed by this Pricing Supplement) has
been prepared on the basis that any offer of Notes in any Member State of the European
Economic Area which has implemented Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended or superseded, the
"Prospectus Directive") (each, a "Relevant Member State") will be made pursuant to an
exemption under the Prospectus Directive, as implemented in that Relevant Member State,
from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of the Notes. Accordingly any person
making or intending to make an offer in that Relevant Member State of the Notes may only do
so in circumstances in which no obligation arises for the Issuer or any Dealer to publish a
prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a prospectus
pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive, in each case, in relation to such offer. Neither
the Issuer nor any Dealer has authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of
Notes in any other circumstances.
MIFID II product governance/Retail investors, professional investors and ECPs target
market ­ Solely for the purposes of the manufacturer's product approval process, the target
market assessment in respect of the Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market
for the Notes is eligible counterparties, professional clients and retail clients, each as defined
in Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); (ii) all channels for distribution to eligible
counterparties and professional clients are appropriate; and (iii) the following channels for
distribution of the Notes to retail clients are appropriate - investment advice and portfolio
management, subject to the distributor's suitability and appropriateness obligations under
MiFID II, as applicable. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Notes
(a "distributor") should take into consideration the manufacturer's target market assessment;
however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market
assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturer's target
market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels, subject to the
distributor's suitability and appropriateness obligations under MiFID II, as applicable.
The purchase of Notes involves substantial risks and is suitable only for investors who have
the knowledge and experience in financial and business matters necessary to enable them to
evaluate the risks and the merits of an investment in the Notes. Before making an investment
decision, prospective purchasers of Notes should ensure that they understand the nature of the
Notes and the extent of their exposure to risks and that they consider carefully, in the light of
their own financial circumstances, financial condition and investment objectives, all the
information set forth in the Offering Memorandum (including "Risk Factors" on pages 23 to 72
thereof) and this Pricing Supplement.
