Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Contingent Coupon and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Lowest
Performing of the Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation due December 16, 2026
|
|
n
Linked to the lowest performing of the common stock of Advanced
Micro Devices, Inc. and the common stock of NVIDIA Corporation (each referred to as an “Underlying Stock”)
n
Unlike ordinary debt securities, the securities do not provide
for fixed payments of interest, do not guarantee any return of principal at stated maturity and are subject to potential automatic call
prior to stated maturity upon the terms described below. Whether the securities pay a contingent coupon, whether the securities are automatically
called prior to stated maturity and, if the securities are not automatically called, whether you are repaid the principal amount of your
securities at stated maturity will depend in each case on the stock closing price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant
calculation day. The lowest performing Underlying Stock on any calculation day is the Underlying Stock that has the lowest performance
factor on that calculation day, calculated for each Underlying Stock as the stock closing price of that Underlying Stock on that calculation
day divided by its starting price.
n
Contingent Coupon. The securities will pay a contingent
coupon on a monthly basis until the earlier of stated maturity or automatic call if the stock closing price of the lowest performing Underlying
Stock on the calculation day for the relevant month is greater than or equal to its threshold price. However, if the stock closing price
of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on a calculation day is less than its threshold price, you will not receive any contingent coupon
for the relevant month. If the stock closing price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on each calculation day is less than its
threshold price, you will not receive any contingent coupons throughout the entire term of the securities. The contingent coupon rate
is 15.50% per annum.
n
Automatic Call. If the stock closing price of the lowest
performing Underlying Stock on any of the calculation days scheduled to occur from June 2025 to November 2026, inclusive, is greater than
or equal to its starting price, the securities will be automatically called for the principal amount plus the contingent coupon payment
otherwise due. The securities will not be subject to automatic call until approximately six months after their issue date.
n
Potential Loss of Principal. If the securities are not
automatically called prior to stated maturity, you will receive the principal amount at stated maturity if the stock closing price of
the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is greater than or equal to its threshold price. If the stock closing
price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is less than its threshold price, you will lose more than
45%, and possibly all, of the principal amount of your securities.
n
The threshold price of each Underlying Stock is equal to 55%
of its starting price.
n
You will not participate in any appreciation of either Underlying
Stock.
n
Your return on the securities will depend solely on the
performance of the Underlying Stock that is the lowest performing Underlying Stock on each calculation day. You will not benefit in any
way from the performance of the better performing Underlying Stock. Therefore, you will be adversely affected if either Underlying
Stock performs poorly, even if the other Underlying Stock performs favorably.
n
Any payment on the securities, including any repayment of principal,
is subject to the creditworthiness of Barclays Bank PLC and is not guaranteed by any third party. If Barclays Bank PLC were to default
on its payment obligations or become subject to the exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power (as described on page PS-7 of this pricing supplement)
by the relevant U.K. resolution authority, you might not receive any amounts owed to you under the securities. See “Selected Risk
Considerations” and “Consent to U.K. Bail-in Power” in this pricing supplement and “Risk Factors” in the
accompanying prospectus supplement.
n
No fixed periodic interest payments or dividends
n
No exchange listing; designed to be held to maturity

Issuer and the Securities” on page PS-5 of this pricing supplement. The securities will have the terms specified in the prospectus

in the securities involves risks not associated with an investment in conventional debt securities. See “Selected Risk Considerations”
on page PS-12 herein, “Risk Factors” beginning on page PS-3 of the product supplement and “Risk Factors” beginning

The securities constitute our unsecured and
unsubordinated obligations. The securities are not deposit liabilities of Barclays Bank PLC and are not covered by the U.K. Financial
Services Compensation Scheme or insured by the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency or deposit
insurance agency of the United States, the United Kingdom or any other jurisdiction.
Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(the “SEC”) nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined that

initial sale of the securities. In addition, Barclays Capital Inc. or any other of our affiliates may use this pricing supplement in market
resale transactions in any of the securities after their initial sale. Unless we or our agent informs you otherwise in the confirmation
of sale, this pricing supplement is being used in a market resale transaction.
Notwithstanding and to the exclusion of any
other term of the securities or any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between Barclays Bank PLC and any holder or beneficial
owner of the securities (or the trustee on behalf of the holders of the securities), by acquiring the securities, each holder and beneficial
owner of the securities 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. See “Consent to U.K. Bail-in Power” on page PS-7 of this pricing supplement.

Each “contingent coupon payment,”
if any, will be calculated per security as follows:
($1,000 × contingent coupon rate) /
12
Any contingent coupon payments will be rounded
to the nearest cent, with one-half cent rounded upward.
If the stock closing price of the lowest performing
Underlying Stock on any calculation day is less than its threshold price, you will not receive any contingent coupon payment on the related
contingent coupon payment date. If the stock closing price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on each calculation day is less than
its threshold price, you will not receive any contingent coupon payments over the term of the securities.
Any return on the securities will be limited

calculation day significantly exceeds its starting price. You will not participate in any appreciation of either Underlying Stock.
|
| Contingent Coupon Payment Dates2: |
Monthly, on the third business day following each calculation day, provided that the contingent coupon payment date with respect to the final calculation day will be the stated maturity date. If a calculation day is postponed with respect to one or more Underlying Stocks, the related contingent coupon payment date will be three business days after the latest calculation day as postponed. |
| Contingent Coupon Rate: |
The “contingent coupon rate” is 15.50% per annum. |
| Automatic Call: |
If the stock closing price of the lowest performing
Underlying Stock on any of the calculation days scheduled to occur from June 2025 to November 2026, inclusive, is greater than or equal
to its starting price, the securities will be automatically called, and on the related call settlement date you will be entitled to receive
a cash payment per security in U.S. dollars equal to the principal amount plus the contingent coupon payment otherwise due. The securities
will not be subject to automatic call until the sixth calculation day, which is approximately six months after the issue date.
If the securities are automatically called, they
will cease to be outstanding on the related call settlement date and you will have no further rights under the securities after that call
settlement date. You will not receive any notice from us if the securities are automatically called.

| Supplemental Plan of Distribution: |
Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (“WFS”)
and Barclays Capital Inc. will act as agents for the securities. The agent will receive an underwriting discount of $23.25 per security.
Barclays Capital Inc. will sell the securities to WFS at the original offering price of the securities less a concession of $23.25 per
security. WFS may provide dealers, which may include Wells Fargo Advisors (“WFA”) (the trade name of the retail brokerage
business of WFS’s affiliates, Wells Fargo Clearing Services, LLC and Wells Fargo Advisors Financial Network, LLC), with a selling
concession of $17.50 per security. In addition to the concession allowed to WFA, WFS may pay $0.75 per security of the agent’s discount
to WFA as a distribution expense fee for each security sold by WFA.
In addition, in respect of certain securities
sold in this offering, Barclays may pay a fee of up to $2.50 per security to selected securities dealers in consideration for marketing
and other services in connection with the distribution of the securities to other securities dealers.
Barclays Bank PLC or its affiliate will enter
into swap agreements or related hedge transactions with one of its other affiliates or unaffiliated counterparties in connection with
the sale of the securities. If WFS, Barclays Capital Inc. or an affiliate of either agent participating as a dealer in the distribution
of the securities conducts hedging activities for Barclays Bank PLC in connection with the securities, such agent or participating dealer
will expect to realize a projected profit from such hedging activities, and this projected profit will be in addition to any discount,
concession or fee received in connection with the sale of the securities to you. This additional projected profit may create a further
incentive for the agents or participating dealers to sell the securities to you.
We expect that delivery of the securities will
be made against payment for the securities on the issue date, which is more than one business day following the pricing date. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the accompanying prospectus supplement, under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
effective May 28, 2024, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any
such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the securities on any date prior to one business day before
delivery will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement and should consult their own advisor.

___________________
1 In the case of certain corporate
events related to an Underlying Stock, the calculation agent may adjust the adjustment factor of that Underlying Stock if the calculation
agent determines that the event has a diluting or concentrative effect on the theoretical value of the shares of that Underlying Stock.
Upon the occurrence of certain reorganization events with respect to an Underlying Stock, the calculation agent will make adjustments
to reflect the amount and type of property deliverable for one share of that Underlying Stock as a result of that reorganization event.
An Underlying Stock may be replaced with another stock selected by the calculation agent upon the occurrence of certain replacement stock
events. For more information, see “General Terms of the Securities—Certain Terms for Securities Linked to an Underlying Stock—Adjustment
Events” in the accompanying product supplement.
2 If any calculation day is not a trading
day with respect to either Underlying Stock, that calculation day for each Underlying Stock will be postponed to the next succeeding day
that is a trading day with respect to each Underlying Stock. A calculation day will also be postponed for either Underlying Stock if a
market disruption event occurs with respect to that Underlying Stock on that calculation day as described under “General Terms of
the Securities—Consequences of a Market Disruption Event; Postponement of a Calculation Day—Securities Linked to Multiple
Market Measures” in the accompanying product supplement. In addition, the stated maturity date will be postponed if that day is
not a business day or if the final calculation day is postponed as described under “General Terms of the Securities—Payment
Dates” in the accompanying product supplement.

Notes, Series A, of which these securities are a part and the product supplement no. WF-1 dated October 17, 2022. This pricing supplement,
together with the documents listed below, contains the terms of the securities and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous oral statements
as well as any other written materials including preliminary or indicative pricing terms, correspondence, trade ideas, structures for
implementation, sample structures, brochures or other educational materials of ours. You should carefully consider, among other things,

this pricing supplement, as the securities involve risks not associated with conventional debt securities. We urge you to consult your
investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors before you invest in the securities.

pricing supplement are different from or inconsistent with the information or terms in the prospectus, prospectus supplement or product

Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Lowest Performing of the Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation due December 16, 2026
Additional
Information Regarding Our Estimated Value of the Securities
Our internal pricing models take into account
a number of variables and are based on a number of subjective assumptions, which may or may not materialize, typically including volatility,
interest rates and our internal funding rates. Our internal funding rates (which are our internally published borrowing rates based on
variables, such as market benchmarks, our appetite for borrowing and our existing obligations coming to maturity) may vary from the levels
at which our benchmark debt securities trade in the secondary market. Our estimated value on the pricing date is based on our internal
funding rates. Our estimated value of the securities might be lower if such valuation were based on the levels at which our benchmark
debt securities trade in the secondary market.
Our estimated value of the securities on the pricing
date is less than the original offering price of the securities. The difference between the original offering price of the securities
and our estimated value of the securities results from several factors, including any sales commissions to be paid to Barclays Capital
Inc. or another affiliate of ours, any selling concessions, discounts, commissions or fees to be allowed or paid to non-affiliated intermediaries,
the estimated profit that we or any of our affiliates expect to earn in connection with structuring the securities, the estimated cost
that we may incur in hedging our obligations under the securities, and estimated development and other costs that we may incur in connection
with the securities.
Our estimated value on the pricing date is not
a prediction of the price at which the securities may trade in the secondary market, nor will it be the price at which Barclays Capital
Inc. may buy or sell the securities in the secondary market. Subject to normal market and funding conditions, Barclays Capital Inc. or
another affiliate of ours intends to offer to purchase the securities in the secondary market but it is not obligated to do so.
Assuming that all relevant factors remain constant
after the pricing date, the price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may initially buy or sell the securities in the secondary market, if
any, and the value that we may initially use for customer account statements, if we provide any customer account statements at all, may
exceed our estimated value on the pricing date for a temporary period expected to be approximately three months after the initial issue
date of the securities because, in our discretion, we may elect to effectively reimburse to investors a portion of the estimated cost
of hedging our obligations under the securities and other costs in connection with the securities that we will no longer expect to incur
over the term of the securities. We made such discretionary election and determined this temporary reimbursement period on the basis of
a number of factors, which may include the tenor of the securities and/or any agreement we may have with the distributors of the securities.
The amount of our estimated costs that we effectively reimburse to investors in this way may not be allocated ratably throughout the reimbursement
period, and we may discontinue such reimbursement at any time or revise the duration of the reimbursement period after the initial issue
date of the securities based on changes in market conditions and other factors that cannot be predicted.
We urge you to read the “Selected Risk
Considerations” beginning on page PS-12 of this pricing supplement.

Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Lowest Performing of the Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation due December 16, 2026
Consent
to U.K. Bail-in Power
Notwithstanding and to the exclusion of any
other term of the securities or any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between us and any holder or beneficial owner of
the securities (or the trustee on behalf of the holders of the securities), by acquiring the securities, each holder and beneficial owner
of the securities 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 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 securities; (ii) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the
principal amount of, interest on, or any other amounts payable on, the securities into shares or other securities or other obligations
of Barclays Bank PLC or another person (and the issue to, or conferral on, the holder or beneficial owner of the securities such shares,
securities or obligations); (iii) the cancellation of the securities and/or (iv) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the securities,
or amendment of the amount of interest or any other amounts due on the securities, 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 securities solely to give effect to the exercise by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of such U.K. Bail-in Power.
Each holder and beneficial owner of the securities further acknowledges and agrees that the rights of the holders or beneficial owners
of the securities 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
or beneficial owners 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 Considerations—Risks Relating to the Issuer—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 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, including the exercise by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of a variety of statutory resolution powers,
could materially adversely affect the value of any 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”

at stated maturity. |
| · | You do not anticipate that the
stock closing price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock will be less than its threshold price on any calculation day, and you are

accept the individual market risk of each Underlying Stock and you understand that poor performance by either Underlying Stock over the
term of the securities may negatively affect your return and will not be offset or mitigated by any positive performance by the other

are not automatically called. |

interest or coupon payments or other non-contingent sources of current income. |

full repayment of principal at stated maturity. |
| · | You anticipate that the ending price of the lowest
performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day will be less than its threshold price, or you are unwilling or unable to accept
the risk that, if it is, you will lose more than 45%, and possibly all, of the principal amount of your securities at stated maturity. |
| · | You anticipate that the stock closing price of
the lowest performing Underlying Stock will be less than its threshold price on any calculation day, or you are unwilling or unable to
accept the risk that, if it is, you may receive few or no contingent coupon payments over the term of the securities. |
| · | You are unwilling or unable to accept the individual
market risk of each Underlying Stock or the risk that poor performance by either Underlying Stock over the term of the securities may
negatively affect your return and will not be offset or mitigated by any positive performance by the other Underlying Stock. |

the Underlying Stocks or you seek an investment with a return that is not limited to the contingent coupon payments that may be payable
on the securities. |

| · | You are unwilling or unable to accept the risks
associated with an investment linked to the performance of the lowest performing Underlying Stock, as explained in more detail in the
“Selected Risk Considerations” section of this pricing supplement. |
| · | You seek an investment that entitles you to dividends
or distributions on, or voting rights related to, the Underlying Stocks. |
| · | You are unwilling or unable to accept the risk
that the securities may be automatically called prior to stated maturity and that you may not be able to reinvest your money in an alternative
investment with comparable risk and yield. |
| · | You seek an investment for which there will be
an active secondary market and/or you are unwilling or unable to hold the securities to stated maturity if they are not automatically
called. |
| · | You are unwilling or unable to assume our credit
risk for all payments on the securities. |
| · | You are unwilling or unable to consent to the
exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by any relevant U.K. resolution authority. |
The considerations identified above are not
exhaustive. Whether or not the securities are an appropriate investment for you will depend on your individual circumstances, and you
should reach an investment decision only after you and your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors have carefully considered
the appropriateness of an investment in the securities in light of your particular circumstances. You should also review carefully the
“Selected Risk Considerations” beginning on page PS-12 of this pricing supplement and the “Risk Factors” beginning
on page PS-3 of the accompanying product supplement and the “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-9 of the accompanying prospectus
supplement for risks related to an investment in the securities. For more information about the Underlying Stocks, please see the sections
titled “The Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.” and “The Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation” below.

Determining
Payment on a Contingent Coupon Payment Date and at Maturity
On each contingent coupon payment date prior to
the stated maturity date, whether you receive a contingent coupon payment and, if the contingent coupon payment date is also a potential
call settlement date, whether the securities are automatically called will each be determined based on the stock closing price of the
lowest performing Underlying Stock on the related calculation day.
Step 1: Determine which Underlying Stock
is the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day prior to the final calculation day. The lowest performing Underlying
Stock on any calculation day is the Underlying Stock that has the lowest performance factor on that calculation day, calculated for each
Underlying Stock as the stock closing price of that Underlying Stock on that calculation day divided by its starting price.
Step 2: Determine if the securities are
automatically called and whether a contingent coupon payment is paid on the applicable contingent coupon payment date prior to the stated
maturity date, based on the stock closing price of the lowest performing
Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day, as follows:
On the stated maturity date, if the securities
have not been automatically called prior to the stated maturity date, you will receive a cash payment per security (the maturity payment
amount) calculated as described below.
Step 1: Determine which Underlying Stock
is the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day. The lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation
day is the Underlying Stock that has the lowest performance factor on the final calculation day, calculated for each Underlying Stock
as its ending price divided by its starting price.
Step 2: Calculate the maturity payment
amount based on the ending price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day, as follows:

Hypothetical
Payout Profile
The following profile illustrates the potential
maturity payment amount on the securities (excluding any contingent coupon payment otherwise due) for a range of hypothetical performances
of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day from its starting price to its ending price, assuming the securities
have not been automatically called prior to the stated maturity date. As this profile illustrates, in no event will you have a positive
rate of return based solely on the maturity payment amount received at maturity; any positive return will be based solely on the contingent
coupon payments, if any, received during the term of the securities. This graph has been prepared for purposes of illustration only. Your
actual return will depend on the actual ending price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day and whether
you hold your securities to stated maturity. The performance of the better performing Underlying Stock is not relevant to your return
on the securities.

Selected
Risk Considerations
An investment in the securities involves significant
risks. Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in either or both of the Underlying Stocks. Some of the risks
that apply to an investment in the securities are summarized below, but we urge you to read the more detailed explanation of risks relating
to the securities generally in the “Risk Factors” sections of the product supplement and prospectus supplement. You should
not purchase the securities unless you understand and can bear the risks of investing in the securities.
Risks Relating to the Securities Generally
| · | If The Securities Are Not Automatically Called
Prior To Stated Maturity, You May Lose Some Or All Of The Principal Amount Of Your Securities At Stated Maturity — We will not
repay you a fixed amount on your securities at stated maturity. If the securities are not automatically called prior to stated maturity,
you will receive a maturity payment amount that will be equal to or less than the principal amount, depending on the ending price of the
lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day. |
If the ending price
of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is less than its threshold price, the maturity payment amount will
be less than the principal amount and you will have full downside exposure to the decrease in the price of the lowest performing Underlying
Stock from its starting price. The threshold price for each Underlying Stock is 55% of its starting price. For example, if the securities
are not automatically called and the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day has declined by 45.1% from its starting
price to its ending price, you will not receive any benefit of the contingent downside protection feature and you will lose 45.1% of the
principal amount. As a result, you will not receive any protection if the price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final
calculation day declines significantly and you may lose some, and possibly all, of the principal amount of your securities at stated maturity,
even if the price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock is greater than or equal to its starting price or its threshold price at certain
times during the term of the securities.
Even if the ending
price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is greater than its threshold price, the maturity payment
amount will not exceed the principal amount, and your yield on the securities, taking into account any contingent coupon payments you
may have received during the term of the securities, may be less than the yield you would earn if you bought a traditional interest-bearing
debt security of Barclays Bank PLC or another issuer with a similar credit rating.
| · | The Securities Do Not Provide For Fixed Payments
Of Interest And You May Receive No Contingent Coupon Payments On One Or More Contingent Coupon Payment Dates, Or Even Throughout The Entire
Term Of The Securities — On each contingent coupon payment date you will receive a contingent coupon payment if the stock closing
price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the related calculation day is greater than or equal to its threshold price. If the
stock closing price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on any calculation day is less than its threshold price, you will not receive
any contingent coupon payment on the related contingent coupon payment date, and if the stock closing price of at least one Underlying
Stock is less than its threshold price on each calculation day over the term of the securities, you will not receive any contingent coupon
payments over the entire term of the securities. |
| · | The Securities Are Subject To The Full Risks
Of Each Underlying Stock And Will Be Negatively Affected If Either Underlying Stock Performs Poorly, Even If The Other Underlying Stock
Performs Favorably — You are subject to the full risks of each Underlying Stock. If either Underlying Stock performs poorly,
you will be negatively affected, even if the other Underlying Stock performs favorably. The securities are not linked to a basket composed
of the Underlying Stocks, where the better performance of one Underlying Stock could offset the poor performance of the other Underlying
Stock. Instead, you are subject to the full risks of whichever Underlying Stock is the lowest performing Underlying Stock on each calculation
day. As a result, the securities are riskier than an alternative investment linked to only one of the Underlying Stocks or linked to a
basket composed of both Underlying Stocks. You should not invest in the securities unless you understand and are willing to accept the
full downside risks of each Underlying Stock. |
| · | You May Be Fully Exposed To The Decline In
The Lowest Performing Underlying Stock On The Final Calculation Day From Its Starting Price, But Will Not Participate In Any Positive
Performance Of Either Underlying Stock — Even though you will be fully exposed to a decline in the price of the lowest performing
Underlying Stock on the final calculation day if its ending price is below its threshold price, you will not participate in any increase
in the price of either Underlying Stock over the term of the securities. Your maximum possible return on the securities will be limited
to the sum of the contingent coupon payments you receive, if any. Consequently, your return on the securities may be significantly less
than the return you could achieve on an alternative investment that provides for participation in an increase in the price of either or
both of the Underlying Stocks. |
| · | Your Return On The Securities Will Depend
Solely On The Performance Of The Underlying Stock That Is The Lowest Performing Underlying Stock On Each Calculation Day, And You Will
Not Benefit In Any Way From The Performance Of The Better Performing Underlying Stock — Your return on the securities will depend
solely on the performance of the Underlying Stock that is the lowest performing Underlying Stock on each calculation day. Although it
is necessary |
Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Contingent Coupon and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Lowest Performing of the Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation due December 16, 2026
for each Underlying Stock to close
at or above its threshold price on the relevant calculation day in order for you to receive a contingent coupon payment and on the final
calculation day for you to be repaid the principal amount of your securities at maturity, you will not benefit in any way from the performance
of the better performing Underlying Stock. The securities may underperform an alternative investment linked to a basket composed of the
Underlying Stocks, since in such case the performance of the better performing Underlying Stock would be blended with the performance
of the lowest performing Underlying Stock, resulting in a better return than the return of the lowest performing Underlying Stock alone.
·
Higher Contingent Coupon Rates Are Associated With Greater Risk — The securities offer contingent coupon payments at a higher
rate, if paid, than the fixed rate we would pay on conventional debt securities of the same maturity. These higher potential contingent
coupon payments are associated with greater levels of expected risk as of the pricing date as compared to conventional debt securities,
including the risk that you may not receive a contingent coupon payment on one or more, or any, contingent coupon payment dates and the
risk that you may lose a substantial portion, and possibly all, of the principal amount at maturity. The volatility of the Underlying
Stocks and the correlation between the Underlying Stocks are important factors affecting this risk. Volatility is a measure of the degree
of variation in the prices of the Underlying Stocks over a period of time. Volatility can be measured in a variety of ways, including
on a historical basis or on an expected basis as implied by option prices in the market. The correlation of the Underlying Stocks represents
a statistical measurement of the degree to which the returns of those Underlying Stocks are similar to each other over a given period
in terms of timing and direction. Greater expected volatility of the Underlying Stocks or lower expected correlation between the Underlying
Stocks as of the pricing date may result in a higher contingent coupon rate, but it also represents a greater expected likelihood as of
the pricing date that the stock closing price of at least one Underlying Stock will be less than its threshold price on one or more calculation
days, such that you will not receive one or more, or any, contingent coupon payments during the term of the securities, and that the stock
closing price of at least one Underlying Stock will be less than its threshold price on the final calculation day such that you will lose
a substantial portion, and possibly all, of the principal amount at maturity. In general, the higher the contingent coupon rate is relative
to the fixed rate we would pay on conventional debt securities, the greater the expected risk that you will not receive one or more, or
any, contingent coupon payments during the term of the securities and that you will lose a substantial portion, and possibly all, of the
principal amount at maturity.
| · | You
Will Be Subject To Reinvestment Risk — If your securities are automatically called, the term of the securities may be reduced
to as short as approximately six months. There is no guarantee that you would be able to reinvest the proceeds from an investment in
the securities at a comparable return for a similar level of risk in the event the securities are automatically called prior to maturity. |
| · | You Will Be Subject To Risks Resulting From
The Relationship Between The Underlying Stocks — The correlation of a pair of Underlying Stocks represents a statistical measurement
of the degree to which the returns of those Underlying Stocks are similar to each other over a given period in terms of timing and direction.
By investing in the securities, you assume the risk that the returns of the Underlying Stocks will not be correlated. The less correlated
the Underlying Stocks, the more likely it is that any one of the Underlying Stocks will be performing poorly at any time over the term
of the securities. All that is necessary for the securities to perform poorly is for one of the Underlying Stocks to perform poorly; the
performance of the better performing Underlying Stock is not relevant to your return on the securities. It is impossible to predict what
the relationship between the Underlying Stocks will be over the term of the securities. The Underlying Stocks may represent different
equity markets, and those equity markets may not perform similarly over the term of the securities. |
| · | Any Payment On The Securities Will Be Determined
Based On The Stock Closing Prices Of The Underlying Stocks On The Dates Specified — Any payment on the securities will be determined
based on the stock closing prices of the Underlying Stocks on the dates specified. You will not benefit from any more favorable values
of the Underlying Stocks determined at any other time. |
| · | Owning The Securities Is Not The Same As Owning
Either Or Both Of The Underlying Stocks — The return on your securities may not reflect the return you would realize if you
actually owned either or both of the Underlying Stocks. For instance, as a holder of the securities, you will not have voting rights or
rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions or any other rights that holders of either Underlying Stock would have. |
| · | No Assurance That The Investment View Implicit
In The Securities Will Be Successful — It is impossible to predict whether and the extent to which the price of either Underlying
Stock will rise or fall. There can be no assurance that the price of either Underlying Stock will not close below its threshold price
on any calculation day. The price of each Underlying Stock will be influenced by complex and interrelated political, economic, financial
and other factors that affect that Underlying Stock. You should be willing to accept the downside risks associated with equities in general
and each Underlying Stock in particular, and the risk of losing a significant portion or all of the principal amount. |

Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Lowest Performing of the Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation due December 16, 2026
| · | Tax Treatment — Significant aspects
of the tax treatment of the securities are uncertain. You should consult your tax advisor about your tax situation. See “Tax Considerations”
below. |
Risks Relating to the Issuer
| · | The Securities Are Subject To The Credit Risk
Of Barclays Bank PLC — The securities are unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations of the issuer, Barclays Bank PLC, and
are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. Any payment to be made on the securities, including any repayment
of principal, is subject to the ability of Barclays Bank PLC to satisfy its obligations as they come due and is not guaranteed by any
third party. As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness of Barclays Bank PLC may affect the market value of the securities
and, in the event Barclays Bank PLC were to default on its obligations, you might not receive any amount owed to you under the terms of
the securities. |
| · | 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 and to the exclusion of any
other term of the securities or any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between Barclays Bank PLC and any holder or beneficial
owner of the securities (or the trustee on behalf of the holders of the securities), by acquiring the securities, each holder and beneficial
owner of the securities 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 pricing supplement. Accordingly, any
U.K. Bail-in Power may be exercised in such a manner as to result in you and other holders and beneficial owners of the securities losing
all or a part of the value of your investment in the securities or receiving a different security from the securities, which may be worth
significantly less than the securities 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 and beneficial owners of the securities. The exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution
authority with respect to the securities will not be a default or an Event of Default (as each term is defined in the senior debt securities
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 securities. See “Consent
to U.K. Bail-in Power” in this 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,
including the exercise by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of a variety of statutory resolution powers, could materially adversely
affect the value of any 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. |
Risks Relating to the Underlying Stocks
| · | There Are Risks Associated With Single Equities
— The price of each Underlying Stock can rise or fall sharply due to factors specific to that Underlying Stock and its issuer,
such as stock price volatility, earnings, financial conditions, corporate, industry and regulatory developments, management changes and
decisions and other events, as well as general market factors, such as general stock market volatility and levels, interest rates and
economic and political conditions. We urge you to review financial and other information filed periodically with the SEC by the issuer
of each Underlying Stock. |
| · | We Cannot Control Actions By An Underlying
Stock Issuer — Actions by an Underlying Stock Issuer may have an adverse effect on the price of such Underlying Stock, the stock
closing price of such Underlying Stock on any calculation day, the ending price of such Underlying Stock, and the value of the securities.
We are not affiliated with either Underlying Stock Issuer. No Underlying Stock Issuer will be involved in the offering of the securities
nor will either Underlying Stock Issuer have any obligations with respect to the securities, including any obligation to take our interests
or your interests into consideration for any reason. No Underlying Stock Issuer will receive any of the proceeds of the offering of the
securities nor will be responsible for, or will have participated in, the determination of the timing of, prices for, or quantities of,
the securities to be issued. No Underlying Stock Issuer will be involved with the administration, marketing or trading of the securities
nor will have any obligations with respect to any amounts payable on the securities. |
| · | We And Our Affiliates Have No Affiliation
With Either Underlying Stock Issuer And Have Not Independently Verified Their Public Disclosure Of Information — We, our affiliates
and WFS and its affiliates are not affiliated in any way with either Underlying Stock Issuer. This pricing supplement relates only to
the securities and does not relate to either Underlying Stock. The material provided in this pricing supplement concerning an Underlying
Stock Issuer is derived from publicly available documents without independent verification. Neither we nor either agent has participated
in the preparation of any of those documents or made any “due diligence” investigation or any inquiry of the Underlying Stock
Issuers. Furthermore, neither we nor either agent knows whether either Underlying Stock Issuer has disclosed all events occurring before
the date of this pricing supplement, including events that could affect the accuracy or completeness of the publicly available documents
referred to above. Subsequent disclosure of any event of this kind or the disclosure of or failure to disclose material future events
concerning an Underlying Stock Issuer could affect the value of the securities and any payments on the securities. You, as an investor
in the securities, should make your own investigation into each Underlying Stock Issuer. |
Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Contingent Coupon and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Lowest Performing of the Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation due December 16, 2026
| · | You Have Limited Anti-dilution Protection
— The calculation agent will, in its sole discretion, adjust the adjustment factor of an Underlying Stock for certain events affecting
such Underlying Stock, such as stock splits and stock dividends, and certain other corporate actions involving the applicable Underlying
Stock Issuer, such as mergers. However, the calculation agent is not required to make an adjustment for every corporate event that can
affect an Underlying Stock. For example, the calculation agent is not required to make any adjustments to the adjustment factor of an
Underlying Stock if the applicable Underlying Stock Issuer or anyone else makes a partial tender or partial exchange offer for such Underlying
Stock. Consequently, this could affect the value of the securities and any payments on the securities. See “General Terms of the
Securities—Certain Terms for Securities Linked to an Underlying Stock—Adjustment Events” in the accompanying product
supplement for a description of the general circumstances in which the calculation agent will make adjustments to the adjustment factor
of an Underlying Stock. |
| · | The Securities May Become Linked To The Common
Stock Of A Company Other Than An Original Underlying Stock Issuer — Following certain corporate events relating to an Underlying
Stock, such as a stock-for-stock merger where the applicable Underlying Stock Issuer is not the surviving entity, the shares of a successor
corporation to such Underlying Stock Issuer will be substituted for such Underlying Stock for all purposes of the securities. Following
certain other corporate events relating to an Underlying Stock in which holders of such Underlying Stock would receive all of their consideration
in cash and the surviving entity has no marketable securities outstanding or there is no surviving entity (including, but not limited
to, a leveraged buyout or other going private transaction involving such Underlying Stock Issuer, or a liquidation of such Underlying
Stock Issuer), the common stock of another company in the same industry group as such Underlying Stock Issuer will be substituted for
such Underlying Stock for all purposes of the securities. In any such event, the equity-linked nature of the securities would be significantly
altered. See “General Terms of the Securities—Certain Terms for Securities Linked to an Underlying Stock—Adjustment
Events” in the accompanying product supplement for a description of the specific events that can lead to these adjustments and the
procedures for selecting a replacement stock. The occurrence of such events and the consequent adjustments may materially and adversely
affect the value of the securities and any payments on the securities. |
| · | The Historical Performance Of The Underlying
Stocks Is Not An Indication Of Their Future Performance — The historical performance of the Underlying Stocks should not be
taken as an indication of the future performance of the Underlying Stocks. It is impossible to predict whether the closing prices of the
Underlying Stocks will fall or rise during the term of the securities, in particular in the environment in the last several years, which
has been characterized by volatility across a wide range of asset classes. Past fluctuations and trends in the prices of the Underlying
Stocks are not necessarily indicative of fluctuations or trends that may occur in the future. |
Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest
| · | Potentially Inconsistent Research, Opinions
Or Recommendations By Barclays Capital Inc., WFS Or Their Respective Affiliates — Barclays Capital Inc., WFS or their respective
affiliates may publish research from time to time on financial markets and other matters that may influence the value of the securities
or express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the securities. Any research, opinions
or recommendations expressed by Barclays Capital Inc., WFA or their respective affiliates may not be consistent with each other and may
be modified from time to time without notice. You should make your own independent investigation of each Underlying Stock and the merits
of investing in the securities. |
| · | We, Our Affiliates And Any Other Agent And/Or
Participating Dealer May Engage In Various Activities Or Make Determinations That Could Materially Affect Your Securities In Various Ways
And Create Conflicts Of Interest — We, our affiliates, WFS and any dealer participating in the distribution of the securities
(a “participating dealer”) may play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the securities, as described
below. In performing these roles, our economic interests and the economic interests of our affiliates, WFS and any participating dealer
are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the securities. |
In connection with
our normal business activities and in connection with hedging our obligations under the securities, 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 the Underlying Stocks. In any such market making, trading
and hedging activity, investment banking and other financial services, we or our affiliates may take positions or take actions that are
inconsistent with, or adverse to, the investment objectives of the holders of the securities. We and our affiliates have no obligation
to take the needs of any buyer, seller or holder of the securities 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 securities. Participating
dealers may also engage in such activities that may negatively impact the value of the securities.
In addition, the
role played by Barclays Capital Inc., as the agent for the securities, could present significant conflicts of interest with the role of
Barclays Bank PLC, as issuer of the securities. For example, Barclays Capital Inc. or its representatives may derive compensation or financial
benefit from the distribution of the securities and such compensation or financial benefit may serve as an
Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Contingent Coupon and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Lowest Performing of the Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation due December 16, 2026
incentive to sell
the securities instead of other investments. Furthermore, we and our affiliates establish the offering price of the securities for initial
sale to the public, and the offering price is not based upon any independent verification or valuation.
Furthermore, if any
dealer participating in the distribution of the securities or any of its affiliates conducts hedging activities for us in connection with
the securities, that participating dealer or its affiliates will expect to realize a projected profit from such hedging activities, and
this projected profit will be in addition to any selling concession and/or any fee that the participating dealer realizes for the sale
of the securities to you. This additional projected profit may create a further incentive for the participating dealer to sell the securities
to you.
In addition to the
activities described above, Barclays Bank PLC will also act as the calculation agent for the securities. As calculation agent, we will
determine any prices of the Underlying Stocks and make any other determinations necessary to calculate any payments on the securities.
In making these determinations, we may be required to make discretionary judgments, including determining the
stock closing price of such Underlying Stock if a calculation day is postponed with respect to such Underlying Stock to the last day to
which it may be postponed and a market disruption event occurs with respect to such Underlying Stock on that day; determining the stock
closing price of an Underlying Stock if it is not otherwise available on any date of determination; adjusting the adjustment factor for
an Underlying Stock in certain circumstances; and if a replacement stock event occurs with respect to an Underlying Stock, selecting a
replacement stock to be substituted for such Underlying Stock and making certain other adjustments to the terms of the securities.
In making these discretionary judgments, our economic interests are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the securities,
and any of these determinations may adversely affect any payments on the securities. Absent manifest error, all determinations of the
calculation agent will be final and binding, without any liability on the part of the calculation agent. You will not be entitled to any
compensation from Barclays Bank PLC for any loss suffered as a result of any determinations made by the calculation agent with respect
to the securities.
Risks Relating to the Estimated
Value of the Securities and the Secondary Market
| · | The Securities Will Not Be Listed On Any Securities
Exchange And We Do Not Expect A Trading Market For The Securities To Develop — The securities 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 securities but are
not required to do so, and may discontinue any such secondary market making at any time, without notice. Even if there is a secondary
market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the securities easily. Because other dealers are not likely
to make a secondary market for the securities, the price at which you may be able to trade your securities 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 securities. The securities
are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be willing and able to hold your securities to maturity. |
| · | The Value Of The Securities Prior To Maturity
Will Be Affected By Numerous Factors, Some Of Which Are Related In Complex Ways — Structured notes, including the securities,
can be thought of as securities that combine a debt instrument with one or more options or other derivative instruments. As a result,
the factors that influence the values of debt instruments and options or other derivative instruments will also influence the terms and
features of the securities at issuance and their value in the secondary market. Accordingly, in addition to the prices of the Underlying
Stocks on any day, the value of the securities will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify
each other, including: |
| · | the expected volatility of the Underlying Stocks; |
| · | correlation (or lack of correlation) of the Underlying
Stocks; |
| · | the time to maturity of the securities; |
| · | the market prices of, and dividend rates on,
the Underlying Stocks; |
| · | interest and yield rates in the market generally; |
| · | supply and demand for the securities; |
| · | a variety of economic, financial, political,
regulatory and judicial events; and |
| · | our creditworthiness, including actual or anticipated
downgrades in our credit ratings. |
| · | The Estimated Value Of Your Securities Is
Lower Than The Original Offering Price Of Your Securities — The estimated value of your securities on the pricing date is lower
than the original offering price of your securities. The difference between the original offering price of your securities and the estimated
value of the securities is a result of certain factors, such as any sales commissions, selling concessions, discounts, commissions or
fees to be allowed or paid to Barclays Capital Inc., another affiliate of ours, WFS or its affiliates or other non-affiliated intermediaries,
the estimated profit that we or any of our affiliates expect to earn |
Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Contingent Coupon and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Lowest Performing of the Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation due December 16, 2026
in connection with
structuring the securities, the estimated cost that we may incur in hedging our obligations under the securities, and estimated development
and other costs that we may incur in connection with the securities.
| · | The Estimated Value Of Your Securities Might
Be Lower If Such Estimated Value Were Based On The Levels At Which Our Debt Securities Trade In The Secondary Market — The estimated
value of your securities on the pricing date is based on a number of variables, including our internal funding rates. Our internal funding
rates may vary from the levels at which our benchmark debt securities trade in the secondary market. As a result of this difference, the
estimated value referenced above might be lower if such estimated value were based on the levels at which our benchmark debt securities
trade in the secondary market. |
| · | The Estimated Value Of The Securities Is Based
On Our Internal Pricing Models, Which May Prove To Be Inaccurate And May Be Different From The Pricing Models Of Other Financial Institutions
— The estimated value of your securities on the pricing date is based on our internal pricing models, which take into account a
number of variables and are based on a number of subjective assumptions, which may or may not materialize. These variables and assumptions
are not evaluated or verified on an independent basis. Further, our pricing models may be different from other financial institutions’
pricing models and the methodologies used by us to estimate the value of the securities may not be consistent with those of other financial
institutions that may be purchasers or sellers of securities in the secondary market. As a result, the secondary market price of your
securities may be materially different from the estimated value of the securities determined by reference to our internal pricing models. |
| · | The Estimated Value Of Your Securities Is
Not A Prediction Of The Prices At Which You May Sell Your Securities In The Secondary Market, If Any, And Such Secondary Market Prices,
If Any, Will Likely Be Lower Than The Original Offering Price Of Your Securities And May Be Lower Than The Estimated Value Of Your Securities

Hypothetical
Returns
If the securities are automatically called:
If the securities are automatically called prior
to stated maturity, you will receive the principal amount of your securities plus the contingent coupon payment otherwise due on the applicable
call settlement date. In the event the securities are automatically called, your total return on the securities will equal any contingent
coupon payments received prior to the call settlement date and the contingent coupon payment received on the call settlement date.
If the securities are not automatically called:
If the securities are not automatically called
prior to stated maturity, the following table illustrates, for a range of hypothetical performance factors of the lowest performing Underlying
Stock on the final calculation day, the hypothetical maturity payment amount payable at stated maturity per security (excluding any contingent
coupon payment otherwise due). The performance factor of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is calculated
as its ending price divided by its starting price.

The above figures do not take into account contingent
coupon payments, if any, received during the term of the securities. As evidenced above, in no event will you have a positive rate of
return based solely on the maturity payment amount received at maturity (excluding any contingent coupon payment otherwise due); any positive
return will be based solely on the contingent coupon payments, if any, received during the term of the securities.
The above figures are for purposes of illustration
only and may have been rounded for ease of analysis. If the securities are not automatically called prior to stated maturity, the actual
amount you will receive at stated maturity will depend on the actual ending price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final
calculation day. The performance of the better performing Underlying Stock is not relevant to your return on the securities.
Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Contingent Coupon and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Lowest Performing of the Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation due December 16, 2026
Hypothetical
Automatic Calls and Contingent Coupon Payments
Set forth below are examples that illustrate how
to determine whether the securities will be automatically called and whether a contingent coupon payment will be paid on a contingent
coupon payment date prior to the stated maturity date. The examples do not reflect any specific contingent coupon payment date but assume
that the securities are subject to automatic call on the applicable calculation day. The securities will not be subject to automatic call
until the sixth calculation day, which is approximately six months after the issue date. The following examples assume the hypothetical
starting price, threshold price and stock closing prices for each Underlying Stock indicated in the examples. The terms used for purposes
of these hypothetical examples do not represent any actual starting price or threshold price. The hypothetical starting price of $100.00
for each Underlying Stock has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and does not represent the actual starting price for either Underlying
Stock. The actual starting price and threshold price for each Underlying Stock are set forth under “Terms of the Securities”
above. For historical closing prices of the Underlying Stocks, see the historical information set forth under the sections titled “The
Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.” and “The Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation” below. These examples are
for purposes of illustration only and the values used in the examples may have been rounded for ease of analysis.
Example 1. The stock closing price of
the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day is greater than or equal to its threshold price and less than its
starting price. As a result, the securities are not automatically called and investors receive a contingent coupon payment on the applicable
contingent coupon payment date.

$55.00 |
$55.00 |
| Performance factor (stock closing price on calculation day divided by starting price): |
95.00% |
115.00% |
Step 1: Determine which Underlying
Stock is the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day.
In this example, the AMD Stock has the
lowest performance factor and is, therefore, the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day.
Step 2: Determine whether the
securities will be automatically called and whether a contingent coupon payment will be paid on the applicable contingent coupon payment
date.
Since the hypothetical stock closing
price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day is greater than or equal to its hypothetical threshold
price, but less than its hypothetical starting price, the securities would not be automatically called and you would receive a contingent
coupon payment on the applicable contingent coupon payment date. The contingent coupon payment would be equal to $12.92 per security,
determined as follows: (i) $1,000 multiplied by 15.50% per annum divided by (ii) 12, rounded to the nearest cent.
Example 2. The stock closing price of
the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day is less than its threshold price. As a result, the securities are
not automatically called and investors do not receive a contingent coupon payment on the applicable contingent coupon payment date.

| Performance factor (stock closing price on calculation day divided by starting price): |
125.00% |
45.00% |
Step 1: Determine which Underlying
Stock is the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day.
In this example, the NVDA Stock has the
lowest performance factor and is, therefore, the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day.
Step 2: Determine whether the
securities will be automatically called and whether a contingent coupon payment will be paid on the applicable contingent coupon payment
date.
Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Contingent Coupon and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Lowest Performing of the Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation due December 16, 2026
The securities would not be automatically
called, even though the stock closing price of the better performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day is greater than
its hypothetical starting price. In addition, since the hypothetical stock closing price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on
the relevant calculation day is less than its hypothetical threshold price, you would not receive a contingent coupon payment on the applicable
contingent coupon payment date. As this example illustrates, whether the securities are automatically called and whether you receive a
contingent coupon payment on a contingent coupon payment date will depend solely on the stock closing price of the lowest performing Underlying
Stock on the relevant calculation day. This will be the case even if the better performing Underlying Stock performs favorably. The performance
of the better performing Underlying Stock is not relevant to your return on the securities.
Example 3. The stock closing price of
the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day is greater than or equal to its starting price. As a result, the
securities are automatically called on the applicable contingent coupon payment date for the principal amount plus the contingent coupon
payment otherwise due.

$55.00 |
| Performance factor (stock closing price on calculation day divided by starting price): |
105.00% |
115.00% |
Step 1: Determine which Underlying
Stock is the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day.
In this example, the AMD Stock has the
lowest performance factor and is, therefore, the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day.
Step 2: Determine whether the
securities will be automatically called and whether a contingent coupon payment will be paid on the applicable contingent coupon payment
date.
Since the hypothetical stock closing
price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the relevant calculation day is greater than or equal to its hypothetical starting
price, the securities would be automatically called and you would receive the principal amount plus the contingent coupon payment otherwise
due on the call settlement date. On the call settlement date, you would receive $1,012.92 per security.
If the securities are automatically called prior
to maturity, you will not receive any further payments after the call settlement date.

Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Lowest Performing of the Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation due December 16, 2026
Hypothetical
Maturity Payment Amount
Set forth below are examples of calculations of
the maturity payment amount payable at stated maturity, assuming that the securities have not been automatically called prior to stated
maturity and assuming the hypothetical starting price, threshold price and ending prices for each Underlying Stock indicated in the examples.
The terms used for purposes of these hypothetical examples do not represent any actual starting price or threshold price. The hypothetical
starting price of $100.00 for each Underlying Stock has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and does not represent the actual starting
price for either Underlying Stock. The actual starting price and threshold price for each Underlying Stock are set forth under “Terms
of the Securities” above. For historical closing prices of the Underlying Stocks, see the historical information set forth under
the sections titled “The Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.” and “The Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation”
below. These examples are for purposes of illustration only and the values used in the examples may have been rounded for ease of analysis.
Example 1. The ending price of the lowest
performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is greater than its starting price, the maturity payment amount is equal to the
principal amount of your securities at maturity and you receive the contingent coupon payment otherwise due.
| |
AMD Stock |
NVDA Stock |
| Hypothetical starting price: |
$100.00 |
$100.00 |
| Hypothetical ending price: |
$135.00 |
$145.00 |
| Hypothetical threshold price: |
$55.00 |
$55.00 |
| Performance factor (ending price divided by starting price): |
135.00% |
145.00% |
Step 1: Determine which Underlying
Stock is the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day.
In this example, the AMD Stock has the
lowest performance factor and is, therefore, the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day.
Step 2: Determine the maturity
payment amount based on the ending price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day.
Since the hypothetical ending price of
the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is greater than its hypothetical threshold price, the maturity payment
amount would equal the principal amount. Although the hypothetical ending price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final
calculation day is significantly greater than its hypothetical starting price in this scenario, the maturity payment amount will not exceed
the principal amount.
In addition to any contingent coupon
payments received prior to the stated maturity date, on the stated maturity date you would receive $1,000.00 per security as well as the
contingent coupon payment otherwise due.
Example 2. The ending price of the lowest
performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is less than its starting price but greater than its threshold price, the maturity
payment amount is equal to the principal amount of your securities at maturity and you receive the contingent coupon payment otherwise
due.

| Hypothetical threshold price: |
$55.00 |
$55.00 |
| Performance factor (ending price divided by starting price): |
115.00% |
90.00% |
Step 1: Determine which Underlying
Stock is the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day.
In this example, the NVDA Stock has the
lowest performance factor and is, therefore, the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day.
Step 2: Determine the maturity
payment amount based on the ending price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day.
Since the hypothetical ending price of
the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is not less than its hypothetical threshold price, you would be repaid
the principal amount of your securities at maturity.
In addition to any contingent coupon
payments received prior to the stated maturity date, on the stated maturity date you would receive $1,000.00 per security as well as the
contingent coupon payment otherwise due.

Example 3. The ending price of the lowest
performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is less than its threshold price, the maturity payment amount is less than the
principal amount of your securities at maturity and you do not receive a contingent coupon payment at maturity.

| Hypothetical threshold price: |
$55.00 |
$55.00 |
| Performance factor (ending price divided by starting price): |
45.00% |
120.00% |
Step 1: Determine which Underlying
Stock is the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day.
In this example, the AMD Stock has the
lowest performance factor and is, therefore, the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day.
Step 2: Determine the maturity
payment amount based on the ending price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day.
Since the hypothetical ending price of
the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is less than its hypothetical threshold price, you would lose a portion
of the principal amount of your securities and receive the maturity payment amount equal to $450.00 per security, calculated as follows:
$1,000 × performance factor of the lowest
performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day
= $1,000 × 45.00%
= $450.00
In addition to any contingent coupon
payments received prior to the stated maturity date, on the stated maturity date you would receive $450.00 per security, but no contingent
coupon payment.
These examples illustrate that you will not participate
in any appreciation of either Underlying Stock, but will be fully exposed to a decrease in the lowest performing Underlying Stock if the
ending price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is less than its threshold price, even if the ending
price of the other Underlying Stock has appreciated or has not declined below its threshold price.
To the extent that the starting price, threshold
price and ending price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the final calculation day differ from the values assumed above, the
results indicated above would be different.

Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Contingent Coupon and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Lowest Performing of the Common Stock of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation due December 16, 2026
Tax
Considerations
You should review carefully the sections in the
accompanying prospectus supplement entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Notes
Treated as Prepaid Forward or Derivative Contracts with Associated Contingent Coupons” and, if you are a non-U.S. holder, “—Tax
Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders.” The following discussion supersedes the discussion in the accompanying prospectus supplement
to the extent it is inconsistent therewith.
In determining our reporting responsibilities,
if any, we intend to treat (i) the securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid forward contracts with associated contingent
coupons and (ii) any contingent coupon payments as ordinary income, as described in the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal
Income Tax Consequences—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Notes Treated as Prepaid Forward or Derivative Contracts with Associated
Contingent Coupons” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. Our special tax counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, has advised
that it believes this treatment to be reasonable, but that there are other reasonable treatments that the Internal Revenue Service (the
“IRS”) or a court may adopt.
Sale, exchange or redemption of a security.
Assuming the treatment described above is respected, if you are a U.S. holder, upon a sale or exchange of the securities (including redemption
upon an automatic call or at maturity), you should recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized
on the sale or exchange and your tax basis in the securities, which should equal the amount you paid to acquire the securities (assuming
contingent coupon payments are properly treated as ordinary income, consistent with the position referred to above). This gain or loss
should be short-term capital gain or loss unless you hold the securities for more than one year, in which case the gain or loss should
be long-term capital gain or loss, whether or not you are an initial purchaser of the securities at the issue price. The deductibility
of capital losses is subject to limitations. If you sell your securities between the time your right to a contingent coupon payment is
fixed and the time it is paid, it is likely that you will be treated as receiving ordinary income equal to the contingent coupon payment.
Although uncertain, it is possible that proceeds received from the sale or exchange of your securities prior to a calculation day but
that can be attributed to an expected contingent coupon payment could be treated as ordinary income. You should consult your tax advisor
regarding this issue.
As noted above, there are other reasonable treatments
that the IRS or a court may adopt, in which case the timing and character of any income or loss on the securities could be materially
affected. In addition, in 2007 the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income
tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments. The notice focuses in particular on whether to require
investors in these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related topics,
including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments and the relevance of factors such as the nature of the underlying
property to which the instruments are linked. While the notice requests comments on appropriate transition rules and effective dates,
any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially affect the tax consequences
of an investment in the securities, possibly with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income
tax consequences of an investment in the securities, including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by this notice.
Non-U.S. holders. Insofar as we have responsibility
as a withholding agent, we do not currently intend to treat contingent coupon payments to non-U.S. holders (as defined in the accompanying
prospectus supplement) as subject to U.S. withholding tax. 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.
Treasury regulations under Section 871(m) generally
impose a withholding tax on certain “dividend equivalents” under certain “equity linked instruments.” A recent
IRS notice excludes from the scope of Section 871(m) instruments issued prior to January 1, 2027 that do not have a “delta of one”
with respect to underlying securities that could pay U.S.-source dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes (each an “Underlying
Security”). Based on our representation that the securities do not have a “delta of one” within the meaning of the regulations,
our special tax counsel believes that these regulations should not apply to the securities with regard to non-U.S. holders, and we have
determined to treat the securities as not being subject to Section 871(m). Our determination is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may
disagree with this determination. Section 871(m) is complex and its application may depend on your particular circumstances, including
whether you enter into other transactions with respect to an Underlying Security. You should consult your tax advisor regarding the potential
application of Section 871(m) to the securities.
Non-U.S. holders should also discuss with their
tax advisors the estate tax consequences of investing in the securities.
