* We have not obtained a rating from any rating organization with respect to the iPath ETNs. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities, and each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. A security rating is subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating organization, and there is no assurance that any security rating will remain in effect for any given period of time or that it will not be lowered, suspended or withdrawn entirely by the applicable rating agency. Any such lowering, suspension or withdrawal of any rating may have an adverse effect on the market price or marketability of the iPath ETNs.

¹ Investors may redeem at least 50,000 units of the iPath® JPY/USD Exchange Rate ETN on a daily basis directly to the issuer, Barclays Bank PLC, subject to the procedures described in the relevant prospectus.

² The investor fee is equal to the Yearly Fee times the principal amount of your securities times the index factor, calculated on a daily basis in the following manner: The investor fee on the inception date will equal zero. On each subsequent calendar day until maturity or early redemption, the investor fee will increase by an amount equal to the Yearly Fee times the principal amount of your securities times the index factor on that day (or, if such day is not a trading day, the index factor on the immediately preceding trading day) divided by 365. The index factor on any given day will be equal to the currency component on that day times the accumulation component on that day.

The accumulation component will be calculated on a daily basis in the following manner: The accumulation component on the inception date will equal one. On each subsequent business day until maturity or early redemption, the accumulation component will equal (1) the accumulation component on the immediately preceding business day times (2) the sum of one plus the product of the deposit rate times the relevant daycount fraction. The daycount fraction on any business day will be the number of calendar days that have elapsed since the immediately preceding business day divided by 365.

³ For the iPath® JPY/USD Exchange Rate ETN, the deposit rate on any given day will be equal to the Bank of Japan’s uncollateralized overnight call rate, as reported on Reuters page TONAT or any successor page on the immediately preceding business day (the “Mutan rate”), minus 0.25%. The deposit rate is intended to represent the actual rate that would be paid by a bank on an overnight deposit of Japanese yen.

iPath® JPY/USD Exchange Rate ETN

The U.S. dollar/Japanese yen exchange rate is a foreign exchange spot rate that measures the relative values of two currencies, the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar. When the Japanese yen appreciates relative to the U.S. dollar, the U.S. dollar/Japanese yen exchange rate decreases, the JPY/USD exchange rate increases and the value of the ETNs increases; when the Japanese yen depreciates relative to the U.S. dollar, the U.S. dollar/Japanese yen exchange rate increases, the JPY/USD exchange rate decreases and the value of the ETNs decreases. The JPY/USD exchange rate is determined by dividing one by the U.S. dollar/Japanese yen exchange rate and truncating the quotient to ten decimal places. As of December 18, 2008 the U.S. dollar/Japanese yen exchange rate has been the rate reported each day on Bloomberg screen USDJPY WMCO Curncy <GO> at approximately 4:00 pm, London time, or any successor page.

An investment in iPath ETNs involves risks, including possible loss of principal. For a description of the main risks see “Risk Factors” in the applicable prospectus.

Before you invest, you should read the prospectus and other documents Barclays Bank PLC has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the issuer and this offering.

iPath ETNs (the “Securities”) are unsecured obligations of Barclays Bank PLC and are not secured debt. The Securities are riskier than ordinary unsecured debt securities and have no principal protection. Risks of investing in the Securities include limited portfolio diversification, trade price fluctuations, uncertain principal repayment, and illiquidity. Investing in the Securities is not equivalent to direct investment in index or index components. The investor fee will reduce the amount of your return at maturity or on redemption, and as a result you may receive less than the principal amount of your investment at maturity or upon redemption of your Securities even if the value of the relevant index has increased. An investment in iPath ETNs may not be suitable for all investors.

The Securities may be sold throughout the day on the exchange through any brokerage account. There are restrictions on the minimum number of Securities you may redeem directly with the issuer as specified in the applicable prospectus. Commissions may apply and there are tax consequences in the event of sale, redemption or maturity of Securities. Sales in the secondary market may result in significant losses.

iPath ETNs typically have lower investor fees than currently existing mutual funds that invest in similar markets and are available to retail investors. Buying and selling iPath ETNs will result in brokerage commissions.

BGINA and its affiliates, and BCI and its affiliates do not provide tax advice and nothing contained herein should be construed to be tax advice. Please be advised that any discussion of U.S. tax matters contained herein (including any attachments) (i) is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, by you for the purpose of avoiding U.S. tax-related penalties; and (ii) was written to support the promotion or marketing of the transactions or other matters addressed herein. Accordingly, you should seek advice based on your particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

An investment in iPath ETNs linked to the performance of a foreign currency exchange rate is subject to risks associated with fluctuations, particularly a decline, in the price of the applicable single foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Factors that may have the effect of causing a decline in the price of a foreign currency include national debt levels and trade deficits, domestic and foreign inflation rates, domestic and foreign interest rates, and global or regional economic, financial, political, regulatory, geographical or judicial events. Currency exchange rates may be extremely volatile, and exposure to a single currency can lead to significant losses.
