Barclays successfully completes Ring-Fencing Transfer Scheme
 
On 9 March 2018 Barclays was granted approval from the Prudential Regulation Authority and the High Court of Justice of England and Wales to implement the "ring-fencing" of its day-to-day banking services of Barclays using a legal process called a Ring-Fencing Transfer Scheme (the "Scheme") under Part VII of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.
 
The requirement to ring-fence day-to-day banking services, which must be completed by 1 January 2019, is one of the reforms brought in by the UK government, aiming to strengthen the UK financial system following the financial crisis that began in 2008.
 
Barclays has now implemented the Scheme and established the ring-fenced bank, Barclays Bank UK PLC on 1 April 2018. This entity will operate alongside, but have the ability to take decisions independently from, Barclays Bank PLC as part of the Barclays Group under Barclays PLC.

"Senior Creditors" means creditors of the Issuer (i) who are depositors and/or other unsubordinated creditors of such Issuer; or (ii) who are subordinated creditors of such Issuer (whether in the event of winding-up or administration of the Issuer or otherwise) other than (x) those whose claims by law rank, or by their terms are expressed to rank, pari passu with or junior to the claims of the Bondholders and relevant Couponholders or (y) those whose claims are in respect of Parity Obligations or Junior Obligations.
 
Subject to applicable law, no Bondholder or Couponholder may exercise, claim or plead any right of set-off, compensation or retention in respect of any amount owed to it by the Issuer arising under or in connection with the Bonds or the Coupons and each Bondholder and Couponholder shall, by virtue of being the holder of any Bond or coupon (as the case may be), be deemed to have waived all such rights of set-off, compensation or retention."
 
2. sanctions and consents to every abrogation, modification, compromise or arrangement in respect of the rights of the Bondholders appertaining to the Bonds against the Issuer, whether or not such rights arise under the Trust Deed, involved in or resulting from or to be effected by, the amendments referred to in paragraph 1 of this Extraordinary Resolution and their implementation;
 
3. authorises, directs, requests and empowers the Trustee to:
 
(a) concur in the modifications referred to in paragraph 1 of this Extraordinary Resolution and, in order to give effect to and implement such modifications, on or shortly after the passing of this Extraordinary Resolution and subject to the satisfaction of the condition set out in paragraph 5 below, to execute a supplemental trust deed (the "Sixth Supplemental Trust Deed") in the form of the draft referred to in paragraph 1 of this Extraordinary Resolution, with such amendments (if any) as may be requested by the Issuer and approved by the Trustee and as available for inspection by the Bondholders, in its sole and absolute discretion, or required by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Deed;
 
(b) concur in, and execute and do all such other deeds, instruments, acts and things as may be necessary, desirable or expedient, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Trustee, to carry out and give effect to this Extraordinary Resolution and the implementation of the modifications referred to in paragraph 1 of this Extraordinary Resolution;
 
4. discharges and exonerates the Trustee from all liability for which it may have become or may become responsible or liable under the Trust Deed or the Bonds in respect of any act or omission in connection with the Proposal, its implementation or this Extraordinary Resolution;
 
5. declares that the implementation of this Extraordinary Resolution shall be in all respects conditional on the Issuer not having previously terminated the Consent Solicitation in respect of the Bonds in accordance with the provisions for such termination set out in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum; and
 
6. acknowledges that the term "Consent Solicitation in respect of the Bonds", as used in this Extraordinary Resolution, shall mean the invitation by the Issuer to all Bondholders to consent to the Proposal as described in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum and as the same may be amended in accordance with its terms."
 
EARLY CONSENT FEE AND CONSENT FEE
 
The Issuer will pay to each Bondholder from whom a valid Solicitation Instruction (as defined below) in favour of the Extraordinary Resolution is received by the Tabulation Agent (A) by the Early Consent Deadline of 4.00 p.m. (London time) on 2 May 2018 (the "Early Consent Deadline"), an amount equal to 0.20 per cent. of the nominal amount of the Bonds (the "Early Consent Fee") or (B) after the Early Consent Deadline but by the Consent Deadline of 4.00 p.m. (London time) on 8 May 2018 (the "Consent Deadline"), an amount equal to 0.10 per cent. of the nominal amount of the Bonds (the "Consent Fee"), subject to (i) such Solicitation Instruction not being revoked (in the limited circumstances in which such revocation is permitted), (ii) the Extraordinary Resolution being duly passed and the Sixth Supplemental Trust Deed being executed and delivered by the Issuer and the Trustee and (iii) the Issuer not having previously terminated the Consent Solicitation in accordance with the provisions for such termination set out in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum, all as more fully described in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum. Only Bondholders who deliver, or arrange to have delivered on their behalf, valid Solicitation Instructions in favour of the Extraordinary Resolution by the Early Consent Deadline or Consent Deadline, (which are not subsequently revoked, in the limited circumstances in which such revocation is permitted) will be eligible to receive the Early Consent Fee or Consent Fee, respectively. For the avoidance of doubt, the Early Consent Fee and the Consent Fee are separate and not cumulative.
 
It is a term of the Consent Solicitation that Solicitation Instructions in favour of the Extraordinary Resolution shall be irrevocable (save in certain limited circumstances described in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum).
 
Bondholders who have not delivered or arranged for the delivery of a Solicitation Instruction in favour of the Extraordinary Resolution as provided above but who wish to attend and vote at the Meeting in person or to make other arrangements to be represented or to vote at such Meeting may do so in accordance with the voting and quorum procedures set out in this Notice and the provisions for meetings of Bondholders set out in the Third Schedule to the Trust Deed. However, such Bondholders will not be eligible to receive any Early Consent Fee or Consent Fee. Only Bondholders who deliver, or arrange to have delivered on their behalf, valid Solicitation Instructions in favour of the Extraordinary Resolution which are received by the Tabulation Agent by the Early Consent Deadline or Consent Deadline will be eligible to receive the Early Consent Fee or Consent Fee, respectively.
 
GENERAL
 
Copies of (i) the Consent Solicitation Memorandum (ii) the current draft of the Sixth Supplemental Trust Deed and (iii) the Trust Deed are available in electronic and hard copy formats on request from the Tabulation Agent, the details for which are set out below. A Bondholder will be required to produce evidence satisfactory to the Tabulation Agent as to his or her status as a Bondholder before being sent a copy of the Consent Solicitation Memorandum or the draft Sixth Supplemental Trust Deed.
 
Copies of (i) the Consent Solicitation Memorandum (ii) the current draft of the Sixth Supplemental Trust Deed and (iii) the Trust Deed are also available for collection or inspection by Bondholders (a) on and from the date of this Notice up to and including the date of the Meeting, at the specified offices of the Principal Paying Agent during normal business hours on any week day (Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays excepted) up to and including the date of the Meeting and (b) at the Meeting and at the offices of Clifford Chance LLP at 10 Upper Bank Street, London E14 5JJ, United Kingdom for 15 minutes before the Meeting. Any revised version of the draft Sixth Supplemental Trust Deed made available as described above and marked to indicate changes to the draft made available on the date of this Notice will supersede the previous draft of the Sixth Supplemental Trust Deed and Bondholders will be deemed to have notice of any such changes.
 
The attention of Bondholders is particularly drawn to the procedures for voting, quorum and other requirements for the passing of the Extraordinary Resolution at the Meeting or any meeting held following any adjournment of such Meeting, which are set out in paragraph 3 of "Voting and Quorum" below. Having regard to such requirements, Bondholders are strongly urged either to attend the Meeting or to take steps to be represented at such Meeting (including by way of submitting Solicitation Instructions in favour of the Extraordinary Resolution) as soon as possible.
 
TRUSTEE
 
Neither the Trustee nor any of its directors, officers, employees or affiliates has been involved in the formulation of the Extraordinary Resolution and the Trustee expresses no opinion and makes no representation as to the merits of the Extraordinary Resolution, the Consent Solicitation or on whether Bondholders would be acting in their best interests in participating in the Consent Solicitation or otherwise voting in respect of the Proposal, and nothing in this Notice should be construed as a recommendation to Bondholders from the Trustee to vote in favour of, or against, the Extraordinary Resolution or to participate in the Consent Solicitation or otherwise vote in respect of the Proposal. Bondholders should take their own independent financial and legal advice on the merits and on the consequences of voting in favour of, or against, an Extraordinary Resolution, including as to any tax consequences. The Trustee has not reviewed, nor will it be reviewing, any documents relating to the Consent Solicitation and/or the Proposal, except this Notice and the Sixth Supplemental Trust Deed. Neither the Trustee nor any of its directors, officers, employees or affiliates has verified, or assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of, any of the information concerning the Consent Solicitation, the Proposal, the Issuer or the factual statements contained in, or the effect or effectiveness of, the Consent Solicitation Memorandum, this Notice or any other documents referred to in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum or this Notice or assumes any responsibility for any failure by the Issuer to disclose events that may have occurred and may affect the significance or accuracy of such information or the terms of any amendment (if any) to the Consent Solicitation. On the basis of the information set out in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum and this Notice, the Trustee has, however, authorised it to be stated that the Trustee has no objection to the Extraordinary Resolution being put to Bondholders for their consideration.
 
VOTING AND QUORUM
 
Bondholders who have submitted and not revoked (in the limited circumstances in which revocation is permitted) a valid Solicitation Instruction in respect of the Extraordinary Resolution, by which they will have given instructions for the appointment of one or more representatives of the Tabulation Agent by the Principal Paying Agent as their proxy to vote in respect of the Extraordinary Resolution at the Meeting (or any adjourned such Meeting), need take no further action to be represented at the Meeting (or any adjourned such Meeting).
 
Bondholders who have not submitted or have submitted and subsequently revoked (in the limited circumstances in which such revocation is permitted) a Solicitation Instruction in respect of the Extraordinary Resolution should take note of the provisions set out below detailing how such Bondholders can attend or take steps to be represented at the Meeting (references to which, for the purpose of such provisions, include, unless the context otherwise requires, any adjourned such Meeting).
 
1.   Subject as set out below, the provisions governing the convening and holding of the Meeting are set out in the Third Schedule to the Trust Deed, copies of which are available from the date of this Notice to the conclusion of the Meeting (or any adjourned such Meeting) as referred to above. For the purposes of the Meetings, a "Bondholder" means a Direct Participant (as defined below).
 
2.    All of the Bonds are represented by a global note held by a common depositary for Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. ("Euroclear") and Clearstream Banking S.A. ("Clearstream, Luxembourg"). For the purposes of this paragraph 2, a "Direct Participant" means each person who is for the time being shown in the records of Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or Euroclear as the holder of a particular nominal amount of the relevant Bonds.
 
A Direct Participant or beneficial owner of Bonds wishing to attend the Meeting in person must produce at such Meeting a valid voting certificate or certificates issued by a Paying Agent relating to the Bonds in respect of which it wishes to vote.
 
A Direct Participant or beneficial owner of Bonds not wishing to attend and vote at the Meeting in person may either deliver its valid voting certificate(s) to the person whom it wishes to attend on its behalf or the Direct Participant may (or the beneficial owner of such Bonds may arrange for the relevant Direct Participant on its behalf to) give a voting instruction (by giving voting and blocking instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg (a "Solicitation Instruction", as defined and more fully described in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum)) instructing a Paying Agent to appoint a proxy to attend and vote at the Meeting in accordance with that Direct Participant's instructions.
 
A Direct Participant must request the relevant clearing system to block the relevant Bonds in its account and to hold the same to the order or under the control of the relevant Paying Agent not later than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the Meeting in order to obtain voting certificates or give voting instructions in respect of such Meeting. In the case of Solicitation Instructions such blocking instructions are part of the electronic instructions that must be given. Bonds so blocked will not be released until the earlier of:
 
(i)  the conclusion of the relevant Meeting (or, if applicable, any adjourned such Meeting); and
 
(ii)          
 
(A) in respect of voting certificate(s), the surrender to a Paying Agent of such voting certificate(s) and notification by the relevant Paying Agent to the relevant clearing system of such surrender or the compliance in such any other manner with the rules of the relevant clearing system relating to such surrender; or
 
(B)  in respect of Solicitation Instructions, not less than 48 hours before the time for which the Meeting (or, if applicable, any adjourned such Meeting) is convened, the notification in writing of any revocation of a Direct Participant's previous instructions to the relevant Paying Agent and the same then being notified in writing by the relevant Paying Agent to the Issuer at least 24 hours before the time appointed for holding the Meeting and such Bonds ceasing in accordance with the procedures of the relevant clearing system and with the agreement of the relevant Paying Agent to be held to its order or under its control.
 
For the purposes of this Notice:
 
"24 hours" means a period of 24 hours including all or part of a day upon which banks are open for business in both the place where the relevant Meeting is to be held and in each of the places where the Paying Agents have their specified offices (disregarding for this purpose the day on which such Meeting is to be held) and such period shall be extended by one period or, to the extent necessary, more periods of 24 hours until there is included as aforesaid all or part of a day upon which banks are open for business as aforesaid; and
 
"48 hours" means a period of 48 hours including all or part of two days upon which banks are open for business both in the place where the relevant Meeting is to be held and in each of the places where the Paying Agents have their specified offices (disregarding for this purpose the day on which such Meeting is to be held) and such period shall be extended by one period or, to the extent necessary, more periods of 24 hours until there is included as aforesaid all or part of two days upon which banks are open for business in all of the places as aforesaid.
 
It is a term of the Consent Solicitation that Solicitation Instructions in favour of the Extraordinary Resolution shall be irrevocable (including for any adjourned Meeting) save in certain limited circumstances as provided in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum.
 
Bondholders should note that Solicitation Instructions or voting instructions otherwise given (unless validly revoked) shall remain valid for any adjourned Meeting. Bondholders should note further that the Early Consent Fee or Consent Fee, as applicable, is payable only to those Bondholders who have delivered valid Solicitation Instructions in favour of the Extraordinary Resolution in accordance with the terms of the Consent Solicitation which have been received by the Tabulation Agent by the Early Consent Deadline or Consent Deadline, respectively (which are not subsequently revoked, in the limited circumstances in which such revocation is permitted) and only if the Extraordinary Resolution is duly passed and the Sixth Supplemental Trust Deed is executed and delivered by the Issuer and the Trustee.
 
3.    The quorum required for the Meeting is one or more persons present holding Bonds or voting certificates or being proxies and holding or representing in the aggregate a clear majority in the nominal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding. If a quorum is not present within fifteen minutes from the time appointed for the Meeting, such Meeting will be adjourned for a period being not less than 14 days nor more than 42 days and to a place determined by the Chairman (with the approval of the Trustee) and the Extraordinary Resolution will be considered at such adjourned Meeting (notice of which will be given to the Bondholders). The quorum at such an adjourned Meeting will be one or more persons present in person holding Bonds or holding voting certificates or being proxies (whatever the nominal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding so held or represented by such persons). The holding of any adjourned Meeting will be subject to the Issuer giving at least 10 days' notice (exclusive of the day on which the notice is given and of the day on which the Meeting is to be resumed) in accordance with the Conditions and the Trust Deed that such adjourned Meeting is to be held.
 
4.    Every question submitted to a Meeting shall be decided in the first instance by a show of hands. Unless a poll is (before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands) demanded by the Chairman or by one or more persons present holding one or more Bonds and/or voting certificates and/or being proxies and being or representing in the aggregate not less than one fiftieth of the nominal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding, a declaration by the Chairman that a resolution has been carried or carried by a particular majority or lost or not carried by a particular majority shall be conclusive evidence of the fact, without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of, or against, the Extraordinary Resolution.
 
5.    At the Meeting (a) on a show of hands, every person who is present in person and produces a definitive bond or a voting certificate or is a proxy shall have one vote and (b) on a poll, every person who is so present shall have one vote in respect of each £1.00 in nominal amount of the Bonds so represented by the voting certificate or in respect of which that person is a proxy.
 
6.     To be passed, the Extraordinary Resolution requires a majority in favour consisting of not less than three-fourths of the votes cast. If passed, an Extraordinary Resolution shall be binding on all Bondholders, whether or not at the Meeting and whether or not voting.

THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS IMPORTANT AND REQUIRES THE IMMEDIATE ATTENTION OF BONDHOLDERS. IF BONDHOLDERS ARE IN ANY DOUBT AS TO THE ACTION THEY SHOULD TAKE, THEY SHOULD SEEK THEIR OWN FINANCIAL AND LEGAL ADVICE, INCLUDING IN RESPECT OF ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES, IMMEDIATELY FROM THEIR BROKER, BANK MANAGER, SOLICITOR, ACCOUNTANT OR OTHER INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL, TAX OR LEGAL ADVISER.

AMENDMENT TO TERMS OF
 
CONSENT SOLICITATION
 
Notice to all holders of the outstanding
 
£200,000,000 9½ per cent. Subordinated Bonds due 2021 originally issued
 
by Woolwich Building Society (ISIN: XS0068009637) (the "Bonds")
 
Further to the announcement by the Issuer on 19 April 2018 of a Consent Solicitation in respect of the Bonds, the Issuer hereby announces amendments to the terms of the Consent Solicitation as follows:
 
  the Early Consent Fee of 0.20 per cent. of the nominal amount of Bonds that are the subject of a valid Solicitation Instruction will be extended to all Bondholders submitting a valid Solicitation Instruction which is received by the Tabulation Agent prior to the Final Voting Deadline; and
 
  this Early Consent Fee will be payable to all Bondholders who have delivered or arranged for delivery of a valid Solicitation Instruction (either in favour or against the Extraordinary Resolution) which is received by the Tabulation Agent prior to the Final Voting Deadline.
Payment of the Early Consent Fee will be subject to the Extraordinary Resolution being duly passed and the Sixth Supplemental Trust Deed being executed and delivered by the Issuer and the Trustee along with the other conditions set out in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum.
 
Any Solicitation Instructions which have been submitted prior to the date hereof will be revocable in accordance with the terms set out in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum. The deadline for revocation of such Solicitation Instructions is 5.00 p.m. (London time) on 3 May 2018.
 
All other terms of the Consent Solicitation remain unchanged and are as set out in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum. There is no change to the Final Voting Deadline which is 4.00 p.m. (London time) on 8 May 2018.
 
Bondholders are advised to check with any bank, securities broker or other intermediary through which they hold their Bonds when such intermediary would need to receive instructions from a Bondholder in order for such Bondholder to participate in the Consent Solicitation or to validly revoke their Solicitation Instruction. The deadlines set by any such intermediary and each Clearing System for the submission and revocation of Solicitation Instructions will be earlier than the deadlines above.
 
Unless the context otherwise requires, capitalised terms used but not defined in this announcement shall have the meaning given in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum dated 19 April 2018.
 
This announcement is given by Barclays Bank PLC.
