›› If any Final Share Price is equal to or lower than 80% of its Initial Share Price, you will receive back your initial
investment with no return.
However,
›› If any Final Share Price is lower than 50% of its Initial Share Price then your initial investment will be reduced by
1% for every 1% fall (including partial percentages) in the worst performing share. For example if the Final Share
Price of the Barclays plc Shares has fallen by 65% from its Initial Share Price, and the Final Share Prices of
GlaxoSmithKline plc Shares and Vodafone plc Shares have fallen by 20% and 30% from their respective Initial
Share Prices then your initial investment will be reduced by 65%.
It is important to note that if the Plan reaches the Final Maturity Date, any capital loss is calculated with
respect to the worst performing share.
Please note the use of averaging can reduce adverse effects of a falling market or sudden market falls shortly before
maturity. Equally, it can reduce the benefits of an increasing market or sudden market rises shortly before maturity.

The table below shows examples of maturity proceeds based upon an initial investment of £10,000, and assuming

performance of the Barclays plc Shares, GlaxoSmithKline plc Shares and Vodafone plc Shares over the Plan Term.

Shares, GlaxoSmithKline plc Shares and Vodafone plc Shares. It does not show the likelihood of these changes
actually happening.
Please remember that you are not investing directly into the Barclays plc Shares, GlaxoSmithKline plc Shares and
Vodafone plc Shares, therefore, regardless of how high the price of the Barclays plc Shares, GlaxoSmithKline plc
Shares and Vodafone plc Shares rise, the maximum return for this Plan will be as shown above.

Target Market
This Plan has been designed for investors who are looking to potentially achieve a high level of growth over a 6 year
period, but can accommodate receiving their money back before the end of the term.
Investors will have a medium to high appetite for risk and are prepared to risk their capital in order to potentially achieve
higher returns.
Investors will understand that the potential returns as well as risk to capital are linked to the performance of the Barclays
plc Shares, GlaxoSmithKline plc Shares and Vodafone plc Shares and that both returns and capital loss will be calculated
based on the worst performing share.
Investors will understand that shares are potentially more volatile than indices and this can present a higher risk over the
term of the Plan.
