Barclays Bank PLC Trigger Autocallable Notes
Linked to the Nasdaq-100 Index® due August 6, 2026
The Trigger Autocallable Notes (the “Notes”) are unsecured
and unsubordinated debt obligations issued by Barclays Bank PLC (the “Issuer”) linked to the performance of the Nasdaq-100
Index® (the “Underlying”). The Issuer will automatically call the Notes if the Closing Level of the Underlying
on any quarterly Observation Date, beginning on August 8, 2025, is greater than or equal to the Closing Level of the Underlying on the
Trade Date (the “Initial Underlying Level”). If the Notes are automatically called, the Issuer will pay you a Call Price equal
to the principal amount of your Notes plus a Call Return, and no further amounts will be owed to you under the Notes. The Call Return
increases based on the per annum Call Return Rate for each additional quarter the Notes remain outstanding. If the Notes are not automatically
called and the Closing Level of the Underlying on the Final Valuation Date (the “Final Underlying Level”) is greater than
or equal to the specified Downside Threshold, the Issuer will pay you a cash payment at maturity equal to the principal amount of your
Notes. However, if the Final Underlying Level is less than the Downside Threshold, the Issuer will pay you a cash payment at maturity
that is less than the principal amount, if anything, resulting in a percentage loss on your investment equal to the negative Underlying
Return. In this case, you will have full downside exposure to the Underlying from the Initial Underlying Level to the Final Underlying
Level, and could lose all of your initial investment. Investing in the Notes
involves significant risks. You may lose a significant portion or all of your initial investment. The Final Underlying Level is observed
relative to the Downside Threshold only on the Final Valuation Date, and the contingent repayment of principal applies only if you hold
the Notes to maturity. Generally, the higher the Call Return Rate on a Note, the greater the risk of loss on that Note. Your return potential
on the Notes is limited to any Call Return paid on the Notes, and you will not participate in any appreciation of the Underlying. Any
payment on the Notes, 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-4 of this pricing supplement) by the relevant U.K. resolution authority, you might not receive any amounts
owed to you under the Notes. See “Consent to U.K. Bail-in Power” in this pricing supplement and “Risk Factors”
in the accompanying prospectus supplement.

q
Automatic Call: The Issuer will automatically call the Notes if
the Closing Level of the Underlying on any quarterly Observation Date, beginning on August 8, 2025, is greater than or equal to the Initial
Underlying Level. If the Notes are automatically called, the Issuer will pay you a Call Price equal to the principal amount of your Notes
plus a Call Return, and no further amounts will be owed to you under the Notes. The Call Return increases based on the per annum
Call Return Rate for each additional quarter the Notes remain outstanding.
q
Downside Exposure with Contingent Repayment of Principal at Maturity:
If the Notes are not automatically called and the Final Underlying Level is greater than or equal to the Downside Threshold, the Issuer
will repay the principal amount at maturity. However, if the Final Underlying Level is less than the Downside Threshold, you will be exposed
to the full decline in the Underlying and the Issuer will repay less than the full principal amount at maturity, if anything, resulting
in a percentage loss on your investment equal to the negative Underlying Return. The Final Underlying Level is observed relative to the
Downside Threshold only on the Final Valuation Date, and the contingent repayment of principal applies only if you hold the Notes to maturity.
Any payment on the Notes, including any repayment of principal, is subject to the creditworthiness of Barclays Bank PLC.

NOTICE TO INVESTORS: THE NOTES ARE SIGNIFICANTLY RISKIER THAN CONVENTIONAL
DEBT INSTRUMENTS. THE ISSUER IS NOT NECESSARILY OBLIGATED TO REPAY THE FULL PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THE NOTES AT MATURITY, AND THE NOTES CAN
HAVE THE FULL DOWNSIDE MARKET RISK OF THE UNDERLYING. THIS MARKET RISK IS IN ADDITION TO THE CREDIT RISK INHERENT IN PURCHASING A DEBT
OBLIGATION OF BARCLAYS BANK PLC. YOU SHOULD NOT PURCHASE THE NOTES IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND OR ARE NOT COMFORTABLE WITH THE SIGNIFICANT
RISKS INVOLVED IN INVESTING IN THE NOTES.
YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE RISKS DESCRIBED UNDER “KEY
RISKS” BEGINNING ON PAGE PS-8 OF THIS PRICING SUPPLEMENT AND “RISK FACTORS” BEGINNING ON PAGE S-9 OF THE PROSPECTUS
SUPPLEMENT BEFORE PURCHASING ANY NOTES. EVENTS RELATING TO ANY OF THOSE RISKS, OR OTHER RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT
THE MARKET VALUE OF, AND THE RETURN ON, YOUR NOTES. YOU MAY LOSE A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OR ALL OF YOUR INITIAL INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES.
THE NOTES WILL NOT BE LISTED ON ANY SECURITIES EXCHANGE.
NOTWITHSTANDING AND TO THE EXCLUSION OF ANY OTHER TERM OF THE NOTES
OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENTS, ARRANGEMENTS OR UNDERSTANDINGS BETWEEN BARCLAYS BANK PLC AND ANY HOLDER OR BENEFICIAL OWNER OF THE NOTES (OR
THE TRUSTEE ON BEHALF OF THE HOLDERS OF THE NOTES), BY ACQUIRING THE NOTES, EACH HOLDER AND BENEFICIAL OWNER OF THE NOTES ACKNOWLEDGES,
ACCEPTS, AGREES TO BE BOUND BY AND CONSENTS TO THE EXERCISE OF, ANY U.K. BAIL-IN POWER BY THE RELEVANT U.K. RESOLUTION AUTHORITY. SEE
“CONSENT TO U.K. BAIL-IN POWER” ON PAGE PS-4 OF THIS PRICING SUPPLEMENT.
We are offering Trigger Autocallable Notes linked to the Nasdaq-100
Index®. The Notes are offered at a minimum investment of 100 Notes at $10 per Note (representing a $1,000 investment),

Additional Information about Barclays Bank
PLC and the Notes |
You should read this pricing supplement together with the prospectus
dated May 23, 2022, as supplemented by the prospectus supplement dated June 27, 2022 relating to our Global Medium-Term Notes, Series
A, of which these Notes are a part, and the underlying supplement dated June 27, 2022. This pricing supplement, together with the documents
listed below, contains the terms of the Notes 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, the matters set forth under “Risk
Factors” in the prospectus supplement, as the Notes 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 Notes.
If the terms set forth in this pricing supplement differ from those
set forth in the prospectus, prospectus supplement or underlying supplement, the terms set forth herein will control.
You may access these documents on the SEC website at www.sec.gov as
follows (or if such address has changed, by reviewing our filings for the relevant date on the SEC website):
Our SEC file number is 1-10257. As used in this pricing supplement,
“we,” “us” and “our” refer to Barclays Bank PLC. In this pricing supplement, “Notes” refers
to the Trigger Autocallable Notes that are offered hereby, unless the context otherwise requires.
| Additional
Information Regarding Our Estimated Value of the Notes |
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 Trade Date is based on our internal funding rates.
Our estimated value of the Notes 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 Notes on the Trade Date is less than the
initial issue price of the Notes. The difference between the initial issue price of the Notes and our estimated value of the Notes 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 Notes, the estimated cost that we may incur in hedging our obligations under the Notes,
and estimated development and other costs that we may incur in connection with the Notes.
Our estimated value on the Trade Date is not a prediction of the price
at which the Notes may trade in the secondary market, nor will it be the price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may buy or sell the Notes
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 Notes in the secondary market but it is not obligated to do so.
Assuming that all relevant factors remain constant after the Trade Date,
the price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may initially buy or sell the Notes 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 Trade Date for a temporary period expected to be approximately five months after the initial issue date of the Notes because, in our
discretion, we may elect to effectively reimburse to investors a portion of the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the Notes
and other costs in connection with the Notes that we will no longer expect to incur over the term of the Notes. 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 Notes
and/or any agreement we may have with the distributors of the Notes. 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 Notes based on changes in market conditions
and other factors that cannot be predicted.
We urge you to read the “Key Risks” beginning on page
PS-8 of this pricing supplement.
| Consent to U.K. Bail-in Power |
Notwithstanding and to the
exclusion of any other term of the Notes or any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between us and any holder or beneficial
owner of the Notes (or the trustee on behalf of the holders of the Notes), by acquiring the Notes, each holder and beneficial owner of
the Notes acknowledges, accepts, agrees to be bound by and consents to the exercise of, any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution
authority.
Under the U.K. Banking Act 2009,
as amended, the relevant U.K. resolution authority may exercise a U.K. Bail-in Power in circumstances in which the relevant U.K. resolution
authority is satisfied that the resolution conditions are met. These conditions include that a U.K. bank or investment firm is failing
or is likely to fail to satisfy the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”) threshold conditions for authorization
to carry on certain regulated activities (within the meaning of section 55B FSMA) or, in the case of a U.K. banking group company that
is a European Economic Area (“EEA”) or third country institution or investment firm, that the relevant EEA or third country
relevant authority is satisfied that the resolution conditions are met in respect of that entity.
The U.K. Bail-in Power includes
any write-down, conversion, transfer, modification and/or suspension power, which allows for (i) the reduction or cancellation of all,
or a portion, of the principal amount of, interest on, or any other amounts payable on, the Notes; (ii) the conversion of all, or a portion,
of the principal amount of, interest on, or any other amounts payable on, the Notes into shares or other securities or other obligations
of Barclays Bank PLC or another person (and the issue to, or conferral on, the holder or beneficial owner of the Notes such shares, securities
or obligations); (iii) the cancellation of the Notes and/or (iv) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the Notes, or amendment
of the amount of interest or any other amounts due on the Notes, or the dates on which interest or any other amounts become payable, including
by suspending payment for a temporary period; which U.K. Bail-in Power may be exercised by means of a variation of the terms of the Notes
solely to give effect to the exercise by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of such U.K. Bail-in Power. Each holder and beneficial
owner of the Notes further acknowledges and agrees that the rights of the holders or beneficial owners of the Notes are subject to, and
will be varied, if necessary, solely to give effect to, the exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority.
For the avoidance of doubt, this consent and acknowledgment is not a waiver of any rights holders or beneficial owners of the Notes 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
“Key Risks—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”
in the accompanying prospectus supplement.

the Closing Level of the Underlying in the event of certain changes in or modifications to the Underlying. For more information, see
“Reference Assets—Indices—Adjustments Relating to Securities with an Index as a Reference Asset” in the accompanying
prospectus supplement. |
| Trade Date: |
|
The Closing Level of the Underlying (the Initial Underlying Level) is observed, the Call Return Rate is set and the Downside Threshold is determined. |
 |
|
|
| Quarterly, beginning on August 8, 2025: |
|
The Issuer will automatically call the Notes if the Closing Level of
the Underlying on any quarterly Observation Date, beginning on August 8, 2025, is greater than or equal to the Initial Underlying Level.
If the Notes are automatically called, the Issuer will pay you a Call
Price equal to the principal amount of your Notes plus a Call Return, and no further amounts will be owed to you under the Notes.
The Call Return increases based on the per annum Call Return Rate for each additional quarter the Notes remain outstanding.
|
|
|
|
| Maturity Date: |
|
The Final Underlying Level is determined on the Final Valuation Date.
If the Notes
are not automatically called and the Final Underlying Level is greater than or equal to the Downside Threshold, the Issuer
will repay the full principal amount at maturity of $10 per Note.
If the Notes
are not automatically called and the Final Underlying Level is less than the Downside Threshold, the Issuer will repay less
than your principal amount at maturity, if anything, resulting in a percentage loss on your investment equal to the negative Underlying
Return, calculated as follows:
$10 × (1 + Underlying Return)
If the Final Underlying Level is less than the Downside Threshold,
your principal is fully exposed to the decline in the Underlying, and you will lose a significant portion or all of the principal amount
of the Notes at maturity.
|
Investing in the Notes involves significant risks. You may lose a
significant portion or all of your initial investment. The Final Underlying Level is observed relative to the Downside Threshold only
on the Final Valuation Date, and the contingent repayment of principal applies only if you hold the Notes to maturity. Generally, the
higher the Call Return Rate on a Note, the greater the risk of loss on that Note. Your return potential on the Notes is limited to any
Call Return paid on the Notes, and you will not participate in any appreciation of the Underlying. Any payment on the Notes, 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 by the relevant U.K. resolution
authority, you might not receive any amounts owed to you under the Notes.
An investment in the Notes involves significant risks. Investing in
the Notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the Underlying or the securities composing the Underlying. Some of the risks that
apply to an investment in the Notes are summarized below, but we urge you to read the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the
Notes generally in the “Risk Factors” section of the prospectus supplement. You should not purchase the Notes unless you understand
and can bear the risks of investing in the Notes.
Risks Relating to the Notes Generally
| ¨ | You may lose a significant portion or all of your principal —
The Notes differ from ordinary debt securities in that the Issuer will not necessarily pay the full principal amount of the Notes at maturity.
If the Notes are not automatically called, the Issuer will pay you the principal amount of your Notes only if the Final Underlying Level
is greater than or equal to the Downside Threshold and will make such payment only at maturity. If the Notes are not automatically called
and the Final Underlying Level is less than the Downside Threshold, you will be exposed to the full negative Underlying Return and the
Issuer will repay less than the full principal amount of the Notes at maturity, if anything, resulting in a percentage loss on your investment
equal to the negative Underlying Return. Accordingly, you may lose a significant portion or all of your principal. |
| ¨ | Your return potential on the Notes is limited to any Call Return paid on
the Notes, and you will not participate in any appreciation of the Underlying — The return potential of the Notes is
limited to the pre-specified per annum Call Return Rate, regardless of any appreciation of the Underlying, which may be significant. In
addition, because the Call Return increases based on the per annum Call Return Rate for each additional quarter the Notes remain outstanding,
the Call Price payable on the first Observation Date is less than the Call Price payable for later Observation Dates. Therefore, if the
Notes are automatically called on an earlier Observation Date, you will receive a lower Call Price than if the Notes were called on a
later Observation Date. If the Notes are not automatically called, you may be subject to the decline in the level of the Underlying even
though you will not participate in any of the Underlying’s appreciation. As a result, the return on an investment in the Notes could
be less than the return on a direct investment in the securities composing the Underlying. |
| ¨ | No interest payments — The Issuer will not make periodic
interest payments on the Notes. |
| ¨ | Reinvestment risk — If your Notes are automatically called
early, the holding period over which you would receive the per annum Call Return Rate could be as short as approximately one year. There
is no guarantee that you would be able to reinvest the proceeds from an investment in the Notes in a comparable investment with a similar
level of risk in the event the Notes are automatically called prior to the Maturity Date. The likelihood that the Notes will be automatically
called prior to the Maturity Date is highest earlier in their term. Generally, the longer the Notes remain outstanding, the less likely
it is that the Notes will be automatically called, due to the decline in the level of the Underlying that has caused the Notes not to
be automatically called on an earlier Observation Date and the shorter time remaining for the level of the Underlying to increase to or
above the Initial Underlying Level on a subsequent Observation Date. If the Notes are not automatically called, you might be exposed to
the full decline in the Underlying. |
| ¨ | Any payment on the Notes will be determined based on the Closing Prices
of the Underlying on the dates specified — Any payment on the Notes will be determined based on the Closing Prices of
the Underlying on the dates specified. You will not benefit from any more favorable value of the Underlying determined at any other time. |
| ¨ | Contingent repayment of principal applies only at maturity —
You should be willing to hold your Notes to maturity. The market value of the Notes may fluctuate between the date you purchase them and
the Final Valuation Date. If you are able to sell your Notes prior to maturity in the secondary market, if any, you may have to sell them
at a loss relative to your initial investment even if at that time the level of the Underlying is greater than the Downside Threshold. |
| ¨ | A higher Call Return Rate and/or a lower Downside Threshold may reflect
greater expected volatility of the Underlying, which is generally associated with a greater risk of loss — Volatility
is a measure of the degree of variation in the level of the Underlying over a period of time. The greater the expected volatility of the
Underlying at the time the terms of the Notes are set, the lower the expectation is at that time that the Notes will be automatically
called for the applicable Call Price and the greater the expectation is that you may lose a significant portion or all of your principal
at maturity. In addition, the economic terms of the Notes, including the Call Return Rate and the Downside Threshold, are based, in part,
on the expected volatility of the Underlying at the time the terms of the Notes are set, where higher expected volatility will generally
be reflected in a higher Call Return Rate than the fixed rate we would pay on conventional debt securities of the same maturity and/or
on otherwise comparable securities and/or a lower Downside Threshold as compared to otherwise comparable securities. Accordingly, a higher
Call Return Rate will generally be indicative of a greater risk of loss while a lower Downside Threshold does not necessarily indicate
that the Notes have a greater likelihood of being automatically called for the applicable Call Price or returning your principal at maturity.
You should be willing to accept the downside market risk of the Underlying and the potential loss of a significant portion or all of your
principal at maturity. |
| ¨ | Owning the Notes is not the same as owning the
securities composing the Underlying — The return on your Notes may not reflect
the return you would realize if you actually owned the securities composing the Underlying. As a holder of the Notes, you will not have
voting rights or rights to receive dividends or other distributions or other rights that holders of the securities composing the Underlying
would have. |
| ¨ | The U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Notes
are uncertain — There is no direct legal authority regarding the proper U.S. federal
income tax treatment of the Notes, and we do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”). Consequently,
significant aspects of the tax treatment of the Notes are uncertain, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the treatment of the
Notes as prepaid forward contracts, as described under “What Are the Tax Consequences of an Investment in the Notes?” below.
If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the Notes, the tax consequences of the ownership and disposition
of the Notes could be materially and adversely affected. |
In
addition, in 2007 the Treasury Department and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal
income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments. Any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated
after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the Notes, possibly
with retroactive effect. You should review carefully the sections of 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”
and, if you are a non-U.S. holder, “—Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders,” and consult your tax advisor regarding the
U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the Notes (including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by the
2007 notice), as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.
Risks
Relating to the Issuer
| ¨ | Credit of Issuer — The Notes 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 Notes, 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 Notes 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 Notes. |
| ¨ | You may lose some or all of your investment if any U.K. Bail-in Power is
exercised by the relevant U.K. resolution authority — Notwithstanding and to the exclusion of any other term of the Notes
or any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between Barclays Bank PLC and any holder or beneficial owner of the Notes (or
the trustee on behalf of the holders of the Notes), by acquiring the Notes, each holder and beneficial owner of the Notes acknowledges,
accepts, agrees to be bound by, and consents to the exercise of, any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority as set
forth under “Consent to U.K. Bail-in Power” in this 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 Notes losing all or a part of the value of your investment
in the Notes or receiving a different security from the Notes, which may be worth significantly less than the Notes and which may have
significantly fewer protections than those typically afforded to debt securities. Moreover, the relevant U.K. resolution authority may
exercise the U.K. Bail-in Power without providing any advance notice to, or requiring the consent of, the holders and beneficial owners
of the Notes. The exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority with respect to the Notes will not be a
default or an Event of Default (as each term is defined in the 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 Notes. 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
| ¨ | Non-U.S. securities risks —
Some of the equity securities composing the Underlying are issued by non-U.S. companies. Investments in securities linked to the value
of such non-U.S. equity securities, such as the Notes, involve risks associated with the home countries of the issuers of those non-U.S.
equity securities. The prices of securities in non-U.S. markets may be affected by political, economic, financial and social factors in
those countries, or global regions, including changes in government, economic and fiscal policies and currency exchange laws. |
| ¨ | The Underlying reflects the price return of the
securities composing the Underlying, not the total return — The return on the Notes
is based on the performance of the Underlying, which reflects changes in the market prices of the securities composing the Underlying.
The Underlying is not a “total return” index that, in addition to reflecting those price returns, would also reflect dividends
paid on the securities composing the Underlying. Accordingly, the return on the Notes will not include such a total return feature. |
| ¨ | Adjustments to the Underlying could adversely
affect the value of the Notes — The sponsor of the Underlying may add, delete,
substitute or adjust the securities composing the Underlying or make other methodological changes to the Underlying that could affect
its performance. The Calculation Agent will calculate the value to be used as the Closing Level of the Underlying in the event of certain
material changes in or modifications to the Underlying. In addition, the sponsor of the Underlying may also discontinue or suspend calculation
or publication of the Underlying at any time. Under these circumstances, the Calculation Agent may select a successor index that the Calculation
Agent determines to be comparable to the Underlying or, if no successor index is available, the Calculation Agent will determine the value
to be used as the Closing Level of the Underlying. Any of these actions could adversely affect the value of the Underlying and, consequently,
the value of the Notes. See “Reference Assets—Indices—Adjustments Relating to Securities with an Index as a Reference
Asset” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. |
Risks
Relating to Conflicts of Interest
| ¨ | Dealer incentives —
We, the Agents and affiliates of the Agents act in various capacities with respect to the Notes. The Agents and various affiliates may
act as a principal, agent or dealer in connection with the Notes. Such Agents, including the sales representatives of UBS Financial Services
Inc., will derive compensation from the distribution of the Notes and such compensation may serve as an incentive to sell these Notes
instead of other investments. We will pay compensation as specified on the cover of this pricing supplement to the Agents in connection
with the distribution of the Notes, and such compensation may be passed on to affiliates of the Agents or other third party distributors. |
| ¨ | Potentially inconsistent research, opinions or recommendations by Barclays
Capital Inc., UBS Financial Services Inc. or their respective affiliates — Barclays Capital Inc., UBS Financial Services
Inc. or their respective affiliates and agents may publish research from time to time on financial markets and other matters that may
influence the value of the Notes, or express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the
Notes. Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by Barclays Capital Inc., UBS Financial Services Inc. or their respective affiliates
or agents 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 the merits of investing in the Notes and the Underlying. |
| ¨ | Potential Barclays Bank PLC impact on the level of the Underlying —
Trading or transactions by Barclays Bank PLC or its affiliates in the securities composing the Underlying and/or over-the-counter options,
futures or other instruments with returns linked to the performance of the Underlying or the securities composing the Underlying may adversely
affect the level of the Underlying and, therefore, the market value of the Notes. |
| ¨ | We and our affiliates may engage in various activities or make determinations
that could materially affect your Notes in various ways and create conflicts of interest — We and our affiliates play
a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the Notes, as described below. In performing these roles, our and our affiliates’
economic interests are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the Notes. |
In connection with our
normal business activities and in connection with hedging our obligations under the Notes, we and our affiliates make markets in and trade
various financial instruments or products for our accounts and for the account of our clients and otherwise provide investment banking
and other financial services with respect to these financial instruments and products. These financial instruments and products may include
securities, derivative instruments or assets that may relate to the Underlying or its components. 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 Notes. We and our affiliates have no obligation to take the needs
of any buyer, seller or holder of the Notes into account in conducting these activities. Such market making, trading and hedging activity,
investment banking and other financial services may negatively impact the value of the Notes.
In addition, the role
played by Barclays Capital Inc., as the agent for the Notes, could present significant conflicts of interest with the role of Barclays
Bank PLC, as issuer of the Notes. For example, Barclays Capital Inc. or its representatives may derive compensation or financial benefit
from the distribution of the Notes and such compensation or financial benefit may serve as an incentive to sell the Notes instead of other
investments. Furthermore, we and our affiliates establish the offering price of the Notes for initial sale to the public, and the offering
price is not based upon any independent verification or valuation.
In
addition to the activities described above, we will also act as the Calculation Agent for the Notes. As Calculation Agent, we will determine
any values of the Underlying and make any other determinations necessary to calculate any payments on the Notes. In making these determinations,
we may be required to make discretionary judgments, including determining whether a market disruption event has occurred on any date that
the value of the Underlying is to be determined; if the Underlying is discontinued or if the sponsor of the Underlying fails to publish
the Underlying, selecting a successor index or, if no successor index is available, determining any value necessary to calculate any payments
on the Notes; and calculating the value of the Underlying on any date of determination in the event of certain changes in or modifications
to the Underlying. In making these discretionary judgments, our economic interests are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor
in the Notes, and any of these determinations may adversely affect any payments on the Notes.
Risks Relating to the Estimated Value
of the Notes and the Secondary Market
| ¨ | There may be little or no secondary market for
the Notes — The Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Barclays Capital
Inc. and other affiliates of Barclays Bank PLC intend to make a secondary market for the Notes but are not required to do so, and may
discontinue any such secondary market making at any time, without notice. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough
liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the Notes easily. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the Notes,
the price at which you may be able to trade your Notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which Barclays Capital Inc. and other
affiliates of Barclays Bank PLC are willing to buy the Notes. The Notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly,
you should be able and willing to hold your Notes to maturity. |
| ¨ | Many economic and market factors will impact the value of the Notes —
Structured notes, including the Notes, 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 Notes at issuance and their value in the secondary market. Accordingly, in addition
to the level of the Underlying on any day, the value of the Notes will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may
either offset or magnify each other, including: |
| ¨ | the expected volatility of the Underlying and the securities composing the Underlying; |
| ¨ | the time to maturity of the Notes; |
| ¨ | the market prices of, and dividend rates on, the securities composing the Underlying; |
| ¨ | interest and yield rates in the market generally; |
| ¨ | supply and demand for the Notes; |
| ¨ | 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 Notes is lower than the initial issue price
of your Notes — The estimated value of your Notes on the Trade Date is lower than the initial issue price of your Notes.
The difference between the initial issue price of your Notes and the estimated value of the Notes is a result of certain factors, such
as 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 Notes, the estimated cost that we may incur in hedging our obligations under the Notes, and estimated
development and other costs that we may incur in connection with the Notes. |
| ¨ | The estimated value of your Notes 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 Notes
on the Trade 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.
Also, this difference in funding rate as well as certain factors, such as sales commissions, selling concessions, estimated costs and
profits mentioned below, reduces the economic terms of the Notes to you. |
| ¨ | The estimated value of the Notes 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 Notes on the Trade 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 Notes may not be consistent with those of other financial institutions that may
be purchasers or sellers of Notes in the secondary market. As a result, the secondary market price of your Notes may be materially different
from the estimated value of the Notes determined by reference to our internal pricing models. |
| ¨ | The estimated value of your Notes is not a prediction of the prices at
which you may sell your Notes in the secondary market, if any, and such secondary market prices, if any, will likely be lower than the
initial issue price of your Notes and may be lower than the estimated value of your Notes — The estimated value of the
Notes will not be a prediction of the prices at which Barclays Capital Inc., other affiliates of ours or third parties may be willing
to purchase the Notes from you in secondary market transactions (if they are willing to purchase, which they are not obligated to do).
The price at which you may be able to sell your Notes in the secondary market at any time will be influenced by many factors that cannot
be predicted, such as market conditions, and any bid and ask spread for similar sized trades, and may be substantially less than our estimated
value of the Notes. Further, as secondary market prices of your Notes take into account the levels at which our debt securities trade
in the secondary market, and do not take into account our various costs related to the Notes such as fees, commissions, discounts, and
the costs of hedging our obligations under the Notes, secondary market prices of your Notes will likely be lower than the initial issue
price of your Notes. As a result, the price at which Barclays Capital Inc., other affiliates of ours or third parties may be willing to
purchase the Notes from you in secondary market transactions, if any, will likely be lower than the price you paid for your Notes, and
any sale prior to the Maturity Date could result in a substantial loss to you. |
| ¨ | The temporary price at which we may initially buy the Notes in the secondary
market and the value we may initially use for customer account statements, if we provide any customer account statements at all, may not
be indicative of future prices of your Notes — Assuming that all relevant factors remain constant after the Trade Date,
the price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may initially buy or sell the Notes in the secondary market (if Barclays Capital Inc. makes a
market in the Notes, which it is not obligated to do) 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 of the Notes on the Trade Date, as well as the secondary market
value of the Notes, for a temporary period after the initial issue date of the Notes. The price at which Barclays Capital Inc. may initially
buy or sell the Notes in the secondary market and the value that we may initially use for customer account statements may not be indicative
of future prices of your Notes. Please see “Additional Information Regarding Our Estimated Value of the Notes” on page PS-3
for further information. |
Hypothetical
terms only. Actual terms may vary. See the cover page for actual offering terms.
The examples below illustrate the payment upon a call or at maturity
for a $10 principal amount Note on a hypothetical offering of the Notes under various scenarios, with the assumptions set forth below.*
You should not take these examples as an indication or assurance of the expected performance of the Notes. The examples below do not take
into account any tax consequences from investing in the Notes. Numbers appearing in the examples below have been rounded for ease of analysis.
| Term: |
Approximately two years (unless called earlier) |
| Call Return Rate: |
10.55% per annum |
| Hypothetical Initial Underlying Level: |
100.00 |
| Hypothetical Downside Threshold: |
75.00 (75.00% of the hypothetical Initial Underlying Level) |
| Observation Dates: |
Quarterly, beginning after one year, as set forth under the “Observation Date” column of the table under “Final Terms—Call Return/Call Return Rate” in this pricing supplement |
*Terms used for purposes of these
hypothetical examples do not represent the actual Initial Underlying Level or Downside Threshold. The hypothetical Initial Underlying
Level of 100.00 has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and does not represent the actual Initial Underlying Level. The actual
Initial Underlying Level and Downside Threshold are set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement. For historical Closing Levels of
the Underlying, please see the historical information set forth under the section titled “Nasdaq-100 Index®”
below. We cannot predict the Closing Level of the Underlying on any day during the term of the Notes, including on any Observation Date.
Example 1 — Notes Are
Automatically Called on the First Observation Date
| Date |
|
Closing Level |
|
Payment (per Note) |
| First Observation Date |
|
115.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying at or above Initial Underlying Level; Notes are automatically called; Issuer pays the Call Price applicable to the first Observation Date on the related Call Settlement Date. |
| Call Price (per Note): |
|
$11.055 |
| Total Return: |
|
10.55% |
Because the Closing Level of the
Underlying is greater than or equal to the Initial Underlying Level on the first Observation Date (which is approximately one year after
the Trade Date), the Notes are automatically called on that Observation Date. The Issuer will pay you on the related Call Settlement Date
a Call Price of $11.055 per Note for a total return of 10.55% on the Notes. No further amounts will be owed to you under the Notes.
As indicated in this example,
any positive return on your Notes will not exceed the Call Price with respect to the applicable Observation Date, regardless of any appreciation
in the Underlying, which may be significant.
Example 2 — Notes Are
Automatically Called on the Final Valuation Date
| Date |
|
Closing Level |
|
Payment (per Note) |
| First Observation Date |
|
85.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called |
| Second Observation Date |
|
75.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called |
| Third Observation Date |
|
80.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called |
| Fourth Observation Date |
|
77.50 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called |
| Fifth Observation Date (the Final Valuation Date) |
|
110.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying at or above Initial Underlying Level; Notes are automatically called; Issuer pays the Call Price applicable to the Final Valuation Date on the Maturity Date. |
| Call Price (per Note): |
|
$12.11 |
| Total Return: |
|
21.10% |
In this example, the Notes are
not automatically called prior to the Final Valuation Date because the Closing Level on each Observation Date preceding the Final Valuation
Date is less than the Initial Underlying Level.
However, because the Closing Level
of the Underlying is greater than or equal to the Initial Underlying Level on the Final Valuation Date, the Notes are automatically called
on the Final Valuation Date. The Issuer will pay you on the Maturity Date a Call Price of $12.11 per Note for a total return of 21.10%
on the Notes.
Example 3 — Notes Are
NOT Automatically Called and the Final Underlying Level Is Above the Downside Threshold
| Date |
|
Closing Level |
|
Payment (per Note) |
| First Observation Date |
|
90.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called |
| Second Observation Date |
|
60.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called |
| Third Observation Date |
|
55.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called |
| Fourth Observation Date |
|
70.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called |
| Fifth Observation Date (the Final Valuation Date) |
|
85.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called. Final Underlying Level above Downside Threshold; Issuer repays principal on Maturity Date. |
| Payment at Maturity (per Note): |
|
$10.00 |
| Total Return: |
|
0.00% |
Because the Closing Level of the
Underlying was less than the Initial Underlying Level on each Observation Date, the Notes are not automatically called. Because the Final
Underlying Level is greater than or equal to the Downside Threshold, the Issuer will pay you on the Maturity Date $10.00 per Note, which
is equal to your principal amount, for a total return of 0.00% on the Notes.
Example 4 — Notes Are
NOT Automatically Called and the Final Underlying Level Is Below the Downside Threshold
| Date |
|
Closing Level |
|
Payment (per Note) |
| First Observation Date |
|
60.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called |
| Second Observation Date |
|
65.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called |
| Third Observation Date |
|
60.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called |
| Fourth Observation Date |
|
72.50 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called |
| Fifth Observation Date (the Final Valuation Date) |
|
45.00 |
|
Closing Level of Underlying below Initial Underlying Level; Notes NOT automatically called. Final Underlying Level below Downside Threshold; Issuer will repay less than the principal amount resulting in a percentage loss on your investment equal to the negative Underlying Return. |
| Payment at Maturity (per Note): |
|
$4.50 |
| Total Return: |
|
-55.00% |
Because the Closing Level of the
Underlying was less than the Initial Underlying Level on each Observation Date, the Notes are not automatically called. Because the Final
Underlying Level is less than the Downside Threshold on the Final Valuation Date, at maturity, the Issuer will pay you a total of $4.50
per Note, representing a loss on the Notes of 55.00%, calculated as follows:
$10 ×
(1 + Underlying Return) = $10 × (1 + -55.00%) = $4.50
|
What Are the Tax Consequences of an Investment in the Notes? |
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” and, if you are a non-U.S. holder, “—Tax
Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders.” The following discussion, when read in combination with those sections, constitutes the full
opinion of our special tax counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, regarding the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning
and disposing of the Notes. The following discussion supersedes the discussion in the accompanying prospectus supplement to the extent
it is inconsistent therewith.
Based on current market conditions,
in the opinion of our special tax counsel, it is reasonable to treat the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid forward
contracts with respect to the Underlying. Assuming this treatment is respected, upon a sale or exchange of your Notes (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 Notes, which should equal the amount you paid to acquire your Notes. This gain or loss
should be long-term capital gain or loss if you hold your Notes for more than a year, whether or not you are an initial purchaser of Notes
at the original issue price. However, the IRS or a court may not respect this treatment, in which case the timing and character of any
income or loss on the Notes could be materially and adversely 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;
the relevance of factors such as the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which
income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these instruments
are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” regime, which very generally can operate to recharacterize certain
long-term capital gain as ordinary income and impose a notional interest charge. 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
and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the Notes, possibly with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax
advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Notes, 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 intend to treat payments on the Notes 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 determination that the Notes do not have a “delta of one” within the meaning
of the regulations, our special tax counsel is of the opinion that these regulations should not apply to the Notes with regard to non-U.S.
holders. 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 Notes.
The Underlying is a modified market capitalization-weighted index that
is designed to measure the performance of 100 of the largest non-financial companies listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market. For more information
about the NDX Index, see “Indices—The Nasdaq-100 Index®” in the accompanying underlying supplement.
Historical Information
The following graph sets forth the historical performance of the Underlying
from January 2, 2014 through August 2, 2024, based on the daily Closing Levels of the Underlying. The Closing Level of the Underlying
on August 2, 2024 was 18,440.85. The dotted line represents the Downside Threshold of 13,830.64, which is equal to 75% of the Initial
Underlying Level.
We obtained the Closing Levels of the Underlying from Bloomberg Professional®

| Supplemental Plan of Distribution |
We have agreed to sell to Barclays Capital Inc. and UBS Financial Services
Inc., together the “Agents,” and the Agents have agreed to purchase, all of the Notes at the initial issue price less the
underwriting discount indicated on the cover of this pricing supplement. UBS Financial Services Inc. may allow a concession not in excess
of the underwriting discount set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement to its affiliates.
We or our affiliates have entered or will enter into swap agreements
or related hedge transactions with one of our other affiliates or unaffiliated counterparties in connection with the sale of the Notes
and the Agents and/or an affiliate may earn additional income as a result of payments pursuant to the swap, or related hedge transactions.
We have agreed to indemnify the Agents against liabilities, including
certain liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments that the Agents may be required to make
relating to these liabilities as described in the prospectus and the prospectus supplement. We have agreed that UBS Financial Services
Inc. may sell all or a part of the Notes that it purchases from us to its affiliates at the price that is indicated on the cover of this
pricing supplement.
We expect that delivery of the Notes will be made against payment for
the Notes on the Settlement Date, which is more than one business day following the Trade 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 Notes 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.
In the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, as special United States
products counsel to Barclays Bank PLC, when the Notes offered by this pricing supplement have been executed and issued by Barclays Bank
PLC and authenticated by the trustee pursuant to the indenture, and delivered against payment as contemplated herein, such Notes will
be valid and binding obligations of Barclays Bank PLC, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency
and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability
(including, without limitation, concepts of good faith, fair dealing and the lack of bad faith) and possible judicial or regulatory actions
or application giving effect to governmental actions or foreign laws affecting creditors’ rights, provided that such counsel
expresses no opinion as to the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law on the conclusions
expressed above. This opinion is given as of the date hereof and is limited to the laws of the State of New York. Insofar as this opinion
involves matters governed by English law, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP has relied, with Barclays Bank PLC’s permission, on the
opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell London LLP, dated as of July 12, 2024, filed as an exhibit to a report on Form 6-K by Barclays Bank
PLC on July 12, 2024, and this opinion is subject to the same assumptions, qualifications and limitations as set forth in such opinion
of Davis Polk & Wardwell London LLP. In addition, this opinion is subject to customary assumptions about the trustee’s authorization,
execution and delivery of the indenture and its authentication of the Notes and the validity, binding nature and enforceability of the
indenture with respect to the trustee, all as stated in the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, dated July 12, 2024, which has been
filed as an exhibit to the report on Form 6-K referred to above.
