CONSENT TO U.K. BAIL-IN POWER

Notwithstanding any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between us and any holder of the Notes, by acquiring the Notes, each holder of the Notes acknowledges, accepts, agrees to be bound by, and consents to the exercise of, any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority.

Under the U.K. Banking Act 2009, as amended, the relevant U.K. resolution authority may exercise a U.K. Bail-in Power in circumstances in which the relevant U.K. resolution authority is satisfied that the resolution conditions are met. These conditions include that a U.K. bank or investment firm is failing or is likely to fail to satisfy the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”) threshold conditions for authorization to carry on certain regulated activities (within the meaning of section 55B FSMA) or, in the case of a U.K. banking group company that is a European Economic Area (“EEA”) or third country institution or investment firm, that the relevant EEA or third country relevant authority is satisfied that the resolution conditions are met in the respect of that entity.

The U.K. Bail-in Power includes any write-down, conversion, transfer, modification and/or suspension power, which allows for (i) the reduction or cancellation of all, or a portion, of the principal amount of, interest on, or any other amounts payable on, the Notes; (ii) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the principal amount of, interest on, or any other amounts payable on, the Notes into shares or other securities or other obligations of Barclays Bank PLC or another person (and the issue to, or conferral on, the holder of the Notes such shares, securities or obligations); and/or (iii) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the Notes, or amendment of the amount of interest or any other amounts due on the Notes, or the dates on which interest or any other amounts become payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period; which U.K. Bail-in Power may be exercised by means of a variation of the terms of the Notes solely to give effect to the exercise by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of such U.K. Bail-in Power. Each holder of the Notes further acknowledges and agrees that the rights of the holders of the Notes are subject to, and will be varied, if necessary, solely to give effect to, the exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority. For the avoidance of doubt, this consent and acknowledgment is not a waiver of any rights holders of the securities may have at law if and to the extent that any U.K. Bail-in Power is exercised by the relevant U.K. resolution authority in breach of laws applicable in England.

For more information, please see “Selected Risk Factors—You May Lose Some or All of Your Investment If Any U.K. Bail-in Power Is Exercised by the Relevant U.K. Resolution Authority” in this preliminary pricing supplement as well as “U.K. Bail-in Power,” “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Securities Generally—Regulatory action in the event a bank or investment firm in the Group is failing or likely to fail could materially adversely affect the value of the securities” and “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Securities Generally—Under the terms of the securities, you have agreed to be bound by the exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority” in the accompanying prospectus supplement.

SELECTED RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Notes involves significant risks. You should read the risks summarized below in connection with, and the risks summarized below are qualified by reference to, the risks described in more detail in the “Risk Factors” section beginning on page S-7 of the prospectus supplement.  We urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers and to invest in the Notes only after you and your advisors have carefully considered the suitability of an investment in the Notes in light of your particular circumstances.

·Issuer Credit Risk— The Notes are our unsecured debt obligations, and are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party.  Any payment to be made on the Notes, including any payment due at maturity, depends on our ability to satisfy our obligations as they come due.  As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness of Barclays Bank PLC may affect the market value of the Notes and, in the event we were to default on our obligations, you may not receive the payment due at maturity or any other amounts owed to you under the terms of the Notes.

·You May Lose Some or All of Your Investment If Any U.K. Bail-in Power Is Exercised by the Relevant U.K. Resolution Authority—Notwithstanding any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between Barclays Bank PLC and any holder of the Notes, by acquiring the Notes, each holder of the Notes acknowledges, accepts, agrees to be bound by, and consents to the exercise of, any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority as set forth under “Consent to U.K. Bail-in Power” in this preliminary pricing supplement. Accordingly, any U.K. Bail-in Power may be exercised in such a manner as to result in you and other holders of the Notes losing all or a part of the value of your investment in the Notes or receiving a different security from the Notes, which may be worth significantly less than the Notes and which may have significantly fewer protections than those typically afforded to debt securities. Moreover, the relevant U.K. resolution authority may exercise the U.K. Bail-in Power without providing any advance notice to, or requiring the consent of, the holders of the Notes. The exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority with respect to the Notes will not be a default or an Event of Default (as each term is defined in the indenture) and the trustee will not be liable for any action that the trustee takes, or abstains from taking, in either case, in accordance with the exercise of the U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority with respect to the Notes. See “Consent to U.K. Bail-in Power” in this preliminary pricing supplement as well as “U.K. Bail-in Power,” “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Securities Generally—Regulatory action in the event a bank or investment firm in the Group is failing or likely to fail could materially adversely affect the value of the securities” and “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Securities Generally—Under the terms of the securities, you have agreed to be bound by the exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority” in the accompanying prospectus supplement.

·Reference Rate / Interest Payment Risk—Because the Interest Rate on the Notes is a floating rate, you will be exposed to risks not associated with a conventional fixed-rate debt instrument.  These risks include fluctuation of the applicable Interest Rate and the possibility that, for any given Interest Period, you may receive a lesser amount of interest than for one or more prior Interest Periods.  We have no control over a number of matters that may affect interest rates, including economic, financial and political events that are important in determining the existence, magnitude and longevity of these risks and their results.  In recent years, interest rates have been volatile, and volatility also could be characteristic of the future.  It is possible that the Reference Rate could decline significantly, including to a rate equal to or less than zero.  If the Reference Rate were to decline to a level such that the sum of the Reference Rate and the Spread did not result in a rate greater than 0.00% on any given Interest Determination Date, you would receive no interest payment on the related Interest Payment Date.  In addition, the floating Interest Rate for the Notes may be less than the floating rate payable on a similar Note or other instrument of the same maturity issued by us or an issuer with the same or a comparable credit rating.

·Certain Built-In Costs Are Likely to Adversely Affect the Value of the Notes Prior to Maturity—While the payment at maturity described in this preliminary pricing supplement is based on the full principal amount of your Notes, the original issue price of the Notes includes the agent’s commission and the cost of hedging our obligations under the Notes through one or more of our affiliates.  As a result, the price, if any, at which Barclays Capital Inc. and other affiliates of Barclays Bank PLC may be willing to purchase Notes from you in secondary market transactions will likely be lower than the price you paid for your Notes, and any sale prior to the Maturity Date could result in a substantial loss to you.

·Suitability of the Notes for Investment—You should reach a decision whether to invest in the Notes after carefully considering, with your advisors, the suitability of the Notes in light of your investment objectives and the specific information set out in this preliminary pricing supplement, the prospectus supplement and the prospectus. Neither the Issuer nor Barclays Capital Inc. makes any recommendation as to the suitability of the Notes for investment.

PPS-4

·We and Our Affiliates May Engage in Various Activities or Make Determinations That Could Materially Affect Your Notes in Various Ways and Create Conflicts of Interest— We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the Notes, as described below. In performing these roles, our and our affiliates’ economic interests are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the Notes.

In connection with our normal business activities and in connection with hedging our obligations under the Notes, we and our affiliates make markets in and trade various financial instruments or products for our accounts and for the account of our clients and otherwise provide investment banking and other financial services with respect to these financial instruments and products. These financial instruments and products may include securities, derivative instruments or assets that may relate to interest rates. In any such market making, trading and hedging activity, and other services, we or our affiliates may take positions or take actions that are inconsistent with, or adverse to, the investment objectives of holders of the Notes. We and our affiliates have no obligation to take the needs of any buyer, seller or holder of the Notes into account in conducting these activities. Such market making, trading and hedging activity, investment banking and other financial services may negatively impact the value of the Notes.

In addition, the role played by Barclays Capital Inc., as the agent for the Notes, could present significant conflicts of interest with the role of Barclays Bank PLC, as issuer of the Notes.  For example, Barclays Capital Inc. or its representatives may derive compensation or financial benefit from the distribution of the Notes. Furthermore, we and our affiliates establish the offering price of the Notes for initial sale to the public, and the offering price is not based upon any independent verification or valuation.

In addition to the activities described above, we will also act as the Calculation Agent for the Notes.  As Calculation Agent, we will determine any values of the Reference Rate and make any other determinations necessary to calculate any payments on the Notes. In making these determinations, we may be required to make certain discretionary judgments. In making these discretionary judgments, our economic interests are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the Notes, and any of these determinations may adversely affect any payments on the Notes.

·Lack of Liquidity—The Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange.  Barclays Capital Inc. and other affiliates of Barclays Bank PLC intend to make a secondary market for the Notes but are not required to do so, and may discontinue any such secondary market making at any time, without notice. Barclays Capital Inc. may at any time hold unsold inventory, which may inhibit the development of a secondary market for the Notes.  Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the Notes easily.  Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the Notes, the price at which you may be able to trade your Notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which Barclays Capital Inc. and other affiliates of Barclays Bank PLC are willing to buy the Notes.  The Notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments.  Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your Notes to maturity.

·Changes in the Method Pursuant to Which the Reference Rate is Determined May Adversely Affect the Value of the Notes— The method by which the Reference Rate is calculated may change in the future, as a result of governmental actions, actions by the publisher of the Reference Rate or otherwise. We cannot predict whether the method by which the Reference Rate is calculated will change or what the impact of any change might be. Any of these changes could adversely affect the Reference Rate, the market value of the Notes and any amounts payable on the Notes.

In particular, LIBOR and other rates that are deemed “benchmarks” are the subject of recent national, international and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform. Some of these reforms are already effective while others are still to be implemented. These reforms may cause these “benchmarks” to perform differently than in the past, or to disappear entirely, or have other consequences which cannot be predicted. Any of these consequences could adversely affect any securities based on, or linked to, these “benchmarks” such as the Notes. Any of these international, national or other proposals for reform or the general increased regulatory scrutiny of “benchmarks” could increase the costs and risks of administering or otherwise participating in the setting of a “benchmark” and complying with any of these regulations or requirements. These factors may have the effect of discouraging market participants from continuing to administer or participate in certain “benchmarks,” trigger changes in the rules or methodologies used in certain “benchmarks” or lead to the disappearance of certain “benchmarks.” The disappearance of a “benchmark” or changes in the manner of administration of a “benchmark” could result in adjustment to the terms and conditions, discretionary valuation by the calculation agent, or other consequences in relation to securities linked to that “benchmark.” Any of these consequences could adversely affect the market value of the Notes and any amounts payable on the Notes.

PPS-5

·Historical Performance of the Reference Rate Should Not Be Taken as Any Indication of the Future Performance of the Reference Rate Over the Term of the Notes — The historical performance of the Reference Rate is not an indication of the future performance of the Reference Rate over the term of the Notes. Therefore, the performance of the Reference Rate over the term of the Notes may bear no relation or resemblance to the historical performance of the Reference Rate.

·Uncertainty about the Future of LIBOR May Adversely Affect the Return on Your Notes and the Price at Which You Can Sell Your Notes — On July 27, 2017, the Chief Executive of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR to the administrator of LIBOR after 2021. The announcement indicates that the continuation of LIBOR on the current basis cannot and will not be guaranteed after 2021. It is impossible to predict whether and to what extent banks will continue to provide LIBOR submissions to the administrator of LIBOR or whether any additional reforms to LIBOR may be enacted in the United Kingdom or elsewhere. At this time, no consensus exists as to what rate or rates may become accepted alternatives to LIBOR, and it is impossible to predict the effect of any such alternatives on the value of LIBOR-based securities such as the Notes. Uncertainty as to the nature of alternative reference rates and as to potential changes or other reforms to LIBOR may adversely affect LIBOR rates during the term of the Notes, your return on the Notes and the trading market for LIBOR-based securities.

·Many Economic and Market Factors Will Impact the Value of the Notes—In addition to the Reference Rate, the value of the Notes will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each other, including:

othe expected volatility of the Reference Rate;

othe time to maturity of the Notes;

ointerest and yield rates in the market generally;

oa variety of economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events;

osupply and demand for the Notes; and

oour creditworthiness, including actual or anticipated downgrades in our credit ratings.

HYPOTHETICAL AMOUNTS PAYABLE ON THE NOTES

The examples below illustrate the various payments you may receive on the Notes in a number of different hypothetical scenarios.  These examples are only hypothetical and do not indicate the actual payments or return you will receive on the Notes.  The examples below assume that the Notes are held until maturity and do not take into account the tax consequences of an investment in the Notes.

HYPOTHETICAL INTEREST RATE AND INTEREST PAYMENT CALCULATIONS

As described above, the effective per annum Interest Rate payable on the Notes on each Interest Payment Date will be a floating rate calculated as described under “Interest Rate” above.  The following illustrates the process by which the Interest Rate and interest payment amount are determined for each Interest Period.

Interest Rate Calculation

Step 1: Determine the value of the Reference Rate for the Interest Period

For each Interest Period commencing on or after the Original Issue Date, a per annum value for the Reference Rate is determined on the relevant Interest Reset Date by observing the Reference Rate on the Interest Determination Date relating to that Interest Reset Date.  For further information concerning the Interest Determination Dates for the Reference Rate, see “Interest Mechanics—How Floating Interest Rates Are Reset” in the prospectus supplement.

Step 2: Calculate the applicable Interest Rate for each Interest Period

For each Interest Period commencing on or after the Original Issue Date, once the Calculation Agent has determined the value of the Reference Rate, the Calculation Agent then will determine the per annum Interest Rate for that Interest Period by calculating the sum of the Reference Rate and the Spread.

Step 3: Calculate the interest payment amount payable for each Interest Payment Date.

For each Interest Period, once the Calculation Agent has determined the applicable per annum Interest Rate, the Calculation Agent will calculate the effective interest rate for that Interest Period by multiplying the per annum Interest Rate determined for that Interest Period by the applicable day count fraction.  The resulting effective interest rate is then multiplied by the relevant principal amount of the Notes to determine the actual interest amount payable on the related Interest Payment Date.

Example Interest Rate and Interest Payment Calculations

The following examples illustrate how the per annum interest rate and interest payment amounts would be calculated for any given Interest Period.  For the purposes of these examples, we have assumed that the Spread is equal to 0.65%.  We have further assumed that the Notes have quarterly Interest Payment Dates, that interest payments will be calculated using a 30/360 day count basis (such that the applicable day count fraction for the quarterly interest payment for the Interest Period will be 90/360) and that the principal amount of the Notes is $1,000.  These values and assumptions have been chosen arbitrarily for the purposes of the below examples, and should not be taken as indicative of the terms of any particular Notes or the future performance of the Reference Rate.  The specific terms for each issuance of Notes will be determined on the Original Trade Date.  Numbers in the examples below may have been rounded for ease of analysis.

Example 1:The Reference Rate is equal to 1.85%

Based on a Reference Rate equal to 1.85% and the Spread of 0.65%, the Interest Rate would be equal to 2.50% per annum (the sum of the Reference Rate and the Spread).

Effective Interest Rate = 2.50% x (90/360) = 0.625%

Interest Payment = $1,000 x 0.625% = $6.25

PPS-7

Example 2:The Reference Rate is equal to -0.05%

Based on a Reference Rate equal to -0.05% and the Spread of 0.65%, the Interest Rate would be equal to 0.60% per annum (the sum of the Reference Rate and the Spread).

Effective Interest Rate = 0.60% x (90/360) = 0.150%

Interest Payment = $1,000 x 0.150% = $1.50

Example 3:The Reference Rate is equal to -1.50%

Based on a Reference Rate equal to -1.50% and the Spread of 0.65%, the Interest Rate would be equal to -0.85% per annum (the sum of the Reference Rate and the Spread).  Because the Interest Rate is less than 0.00%, the investor would receive no interest payment on the related Interest Payment Date.

PPS-8

HISTORICAL INFORMATION

The following graph sets forth the Reference Rate for the period from January 1, 2008 to September 12, 2017.  The Reference Rate on September 12, 2017 was 1.31917%.  The historical performance of the Reference Rate should not be taken as an indication of its future performance.  We cannot give you any assurance that the Reference Rate will be within the applicable Reference Rate Range on any day of any Interest Period.  We obtained the information in the graph below from Bloomberg Financial Markets (“Bloomberg”), without independent verification.  Historical Performance is not indicative of future performance.

TAX CONSIDERATIONS

You should review carefully the sections entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Notes Treated as Indebtedness for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes” and, if you are a non-U.S. holder, “—Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders,” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. The discussion below applies to you only if you are an initial purchaser of the Notes; if you are a secondary purchaser of the Notes, the tax consequences to you may be different. In the opinion of our special tax counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, the Notes should be treated as debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The remainder of this discussion assumes that this treatment is correct.

Assuming the treatment described above is correct, in the opinion of our special tax counsel, the Notes will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as variable rate debt instruments, as described under “—Variable Rate Debt Instruments” in the accompanying prospectus supplement.

Interest paid on the Notes will generally be taxable to you as ordinary income at the time it accrues or is received, in accordance with your method of tax accounting. Upon a sale or exchange (including redemption at maturity), you will generally recognize taxable income or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale or exchange (not including any amount attributable to accrued but unpaid interest) and your tax basis in the Notes, which will generally equal the amount you paid to acquire the Notes. This gain or loss will generally be long-term capital gain or loss if you have held the Notes for more than one year. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitation.

Non-U.S. Holders. We do not believe that non-U.S. holders should be required to provide a Form W-8 in order to avoid 30% U.S. withholding tax with respect to the interest payments, although the Internal Revenue Service could challenge this position. However, non-U.S. holders should in any event expect to be required to provide appropriate Forms W-8 or other documentation in order to establish an exemption from backup withholding, as described under the heading “—Information Reporting and Backup Withholding” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. If any withholding is required, we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts withheld.

You should consult your tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the Notes, as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

PPS-10

CERTAIN EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT CONSIDERATIONS

Your purchase of a Note in an Individual Retirement Account (an “IRA”), will be deemed to be a representation and warranty by you, as a fiduciary of the IRA and also on behalf of the IRA, that (i) neither the issuer, the placement agent nor any of their respective affiliates has or exercises any discretionary authority or control or acts in a fiduciary capacity with respect to the IRA assets used to purchase the Note or renders investment advice (within the meaning of Section 3(21)(A)(ii) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”)) with respect to any such IRA assets and (ii) in connection with the purchase of the Note, the IRA will pay no more than “adequate consideration” (within the meaning of Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA) and in connection with any redemption of the Note pursuant to its terms will receive at least adequate consideration, and, in making the foregoing representations and warranties, you have (x) applied sound business principles in determining whether fair market value will be paid, and (y) made such determination acting in good faith.

For additional ERISA considerations, see “Benefit Plan Investor Considerations” in the prospectus supplement.

SUPPLEMENTAL PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We will agree to sell to Barclays Capital Inc. (the “Agent”), and the Agent will agree to purchase from us, the principal amount of the Notes, and at the price, specified on the cover of the related pricing supplement, the document that will be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) containing the final pricing terms of the Notes.  The Agent will commit to take and pay for all of the Notes, if any are taken.

We expect that delivery of the Notes will be made against payment for the Notes on or about the Original Issue Date indicated on the cover of this preliminary pricing supplement, which will be the third business day following the Original Trade Date (this settlement cycle being referred to as “T+3”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes on any date prior to two business days before delivery will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes will initially settle in three business days (T+3), to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement. See “Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)” in the prospectus supplement.
