Pige 3DIRECTORS’ REPORTThe directors submit their report and the audited financial statements of ileta Funding Limited (the ‘Company” and the “issuer”) for the financialyear ended 31 December 2015.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIESThe Company is a special purpose entity (“SPE’) established by Barclays Bank PLC (“BBPLC”, the “Originator” and the ‘Notehoider’’) for thepurpose of issuing limited recourse asset backed securities (the “Notes”) and was incorporated in Ireland as a private limited company on 25November 2009. The registered of ice of the Issuer is 6th Floor, Pinnacle 2. Eastpoint Business Park, Dublin 3, ireland. The Company’s UK placeof business is at do Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch. Winchester 1-louse. Mailstop 428, I Great Winchester Street. London EC2N 2DB. Unitedkingdom. Although the Company was incorporated iii Ireland, it is tax resident only in the United Kingdom and considers its centre of main interestto be in United Kingdom and Wales.

The principal activity of the Company is tile issue of the Notes and the acquisition of a beneficial interest in the portfolio of collateral debtobligations BBPLC was the initial purchaser ot’the Notes.

in March 2011, GBP l15,000,000 of the Notes held by BBPLC were provided to an independent third party under a Repurchase agreement for aperiod of 5 financial years. Apart from this transaction, BBPLC was tile sole noteholder as at 31 December 2015 and 3 I December 2014.

The Originator failed the derecognition criteria of lAS 39 when it sold the legal ownership of the collateral debt obligations to the Company as thesignificant risks and rewards of the loans were not transferred to the Company. Therefore, these loans remain on the Statement of fnancial positionof the Originator As such, the beneficial interest in the underlying portfolio is shown as a deemed loan in the financial statements of the Company.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS AND FUTURE DEVELOPMENTSAs it the financial sear end, the Conipany acted as an SPti esiahtishd to raise or borrow mone\ and to grant securits user its assets br such purposeand to acquire receivables mid administer these mceis atiles Flie directors do not anticipate aims changes to the present level of activits - or the natureof the Company’s business in ihe near liture

The details of’ the Notes at financial year end are as follows

GBP CIII’31-Dec-15 31-Dec-14

Senior Notes 3,625,000.000 3,b25,000,000Subordinate Notes I .375,000,000 I ,375,000,000Total 5.000,000.000 5.000.000,000

The Notes are intended only for highly sophisticated and knosvledgeable investors ssho are capable of understanding and evaluating the risksinvolved in investing in the Notes.

The Company has no direct employees, and no subsidiaries.

On 19 August 2012, the underlying portfolio moved from the reinvestment phase to the amortisation phase As a result, during the tinancial yearended 31 December 2013. the Company received a repayment on the deemed loan of’ GBP 69.633.226. Under the transaction documents, theseprincipal proceeds were used to repay the Company’s deemed loan and the Notes in accordance with the Application ol’Principal Proceeds Prioritiesof Payment on the Payment Dates of 19 May 2013, 19 August 2013 and 19 November 2013.

However, the Company signed the First Supplemental Trust Deed on 20 December 2013. amending the transaction documents This deed, amongstother things, extended the maturity date of the Notes to l9 November 2029. stopped the amortisation phase, extended the Reinvestment Period to 19November 2015 and amended the Eligibility Criteria for the underlying portfolio of assets.

Tile Company signed the Second Supplemental Trust Deed on 16 December 2014, amending the Transaction Documents.

l,inder this deed, the principal amount of the Notes has been increased so that the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Senior Notes is GBP3,625.000,000 and the Principal Amount Outstanding of’the Subordinated Notes is GBP 1,375.000,000.

in consideration for the increase in the Senior Notes and the Subordinated Notes, the Noteholder has advanced to the Company’s Principal AccountGBP 2,704.663.226 in respect of the Senior Notes and GBP 855.000,000 in respect of the Subordinated Notes The amounts paid by theNoteholders have been Lmsed by the Coinnans to nurchase collateral debt t’rom BBPLC in accordance with the Vendor Trust Deed.

The Conipanv’s obligation to pay GBP 3,559,663,226 to BBPLC as Vendor and BBPLC’s obligation as Senior Noteholder and SubordinatedNoteholder to pay GBP 3,559,663.226 to the Company was oflef as at the date of this Second Supplemental ‘Frust Deed.

The Second Supplemental Trust Deed, amongst other things, also extended the maturity date of the Notes to 19 Nos’eniber 2034. extended theReinvestment Period to 19 Noseniber 2016 and amended the Eligibility Criteria for the underlying portt’olio of assets

The increase in the Principal Amount (‘)utstandiiig of the Notes and the extension to the maturity date of the Notes amounted to a substantialmodification of’ the terms of the Notes in accordance svith lAS 39 As such, the existing Notes were considered to be extinguished at carrying valueand new Notes recognised at thir value, and subsequently measured at aniortised cost Hosvever, as the Notes pay interest at a lusting rate, it is thedirectors’ viesv that the fair saimme of the modified Notes is equal to the carrying value ot the Notes at the date of modification, resulting in no gain orloss being recognised in the Stimtemeimt of comprehensive incoiiie

RESULTS AND DIVIDEND FOR THE YEARThe results for the financial year are set out on Page 10. The directors have not recommended payment of a dividend for the year under review.(2014: GBP Nil).

GOING CONCERNThe Company’s performance is mainly driven by the performance of the beneficial inlerest in the underling portfolio of collateral debt obligationspurchased from BBPLC

In order to qualify as a collateral debt obligation, an obligation must satisfy specific Eligibility Criteria specified in the Collateral ManagementAgreement (as amended by the Second Supplemental Trust Deed) on the relevant Trust Date, If a collateral debt obligation does not meet theEligibility Criteria on the relevant Trust Date, the Vendor Trustee shall re-acquire the beneficial interest in such collateral debt obligation from theCompany at the price at which the Company acquired the beneficial interest therein.

To measure the current and prospective performance of the underlying portfolio, the Collateral Administrator performs monthly Portfolio Profile,Collateral Quality and Senior Par Value tests which are reviewed by the directors As per the 31 December 2015 monthly investor report, theCompany passed all the mentioned tests except for the Minimum Weighted Average Spread Test The collateral manager continues to monitor theportfolio with regards to these tests and takes the action required under the deal document.The summary of the key performance indicator results areas follows:

Collateral Test TRIGGERS RESULTS STATUS RESULTS STATUS31-Dec-15 31-Dec-15 31—Mar-16 31—Mar-16c’l;’

C;sc”ayc,7nior ?a ,‘a’,ie 7cr’ >= 132.57’ 1.75’..’ Pass t5.75’ Pass

During the financial year, the Company failed the weighted average maturity test. However, this failure does not have any immediate consequenceor impact on the Company. The Collateral manager continues to monitor the portfolio with regards to these tests and takes action required under thedeal document.

Importance is given to the Senior Par Value test as this test will determine the capacity of the Company to pay interest on the Subordinated Notes,whether Principal Proceeds may be reinvested in new collateral debt obligations or whether total interest proceeds would be needed to pay interest onthe Senior Notes. As per the 31 March 2016 investor report. the Senior Par Value ratio amounted to 137.93%. more than the required ratio ot’132.50%.

In view of the above results, there is a reasonable basis that the current performance of the underlying collateral debt obligations will he sufticienttoserve any obligations outstanding in respect of the Notes.

As highlighted in Note 16 to the t’inancial statements, any cash shortfall and residual risk arising from the financial assets and liabilities of theCompany will be ultimately borne by the Subordinated Noteholders.

The directors consider that, having taken all available relevant information into account in their going concern assessment, there is no reasonabledoubt over the performance of the underlying collateral obligations and that the substantial risks and rewards from the trade will be ultimately borneby the Subordinated Noteholders As a consequence. the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has sufficient viability to continuein operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financialstatements.

Our responsibilities and those of the directors

As explained more fully in the Directors’ Responsibilities Statement set out on page 7, the directors areresponsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true andfair view.

Our responsibility is to audit and express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with Irishlaw and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply withthe Auditing Practices Board’s Ethical Standards for Auditors.

What an audit of financial statements involves

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Anaudit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficientto give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whethercaused by fraud or error. This includes an assessment of:

• whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the company’s circumstances and have beenconsistently applied and adequately disclosed;

• the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the directors; and

• the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We primarily focus our work in these areas by assessing the directors’ judgements against availableevidence, forming our ownjudgements, and evaluating the disclosures in the financial statements.

We test and examine information, using sampling and other auditing techniques, to the extent we considernecessary to provide a reasonable basis for us to draw conclusions. We obtain audit evidence throughtesting the effectiveness of controls, substantive procedures or a combination of both.

In addition, we read all the financial and non-financial information in the Directors’ Report and AuditedFinancial Statements to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements and toidentify any information that is apparently materially incorrect based on, or materially inconsistent with,the knowledge acquired by us in the course of performing the audit. If we become aware of any apparentmaterial misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the financial year ended 31 December 2015

1. General information

in operational existence for the foreseeable future Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial

statements.

al’liict the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities., income and expenses. The estimates and associated

assumptions are based on historical esperience and various oilier actors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results ot’

which form the basis of making adgernents ahoLit carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual

results may di (Thr from these estiin ates.

(d) Basis of measurement

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(g) Financial instruments

The financial instruments held by the Company include the following:

• Deemed loan to Originator

• Debt securities

RecognitionThe Company initially recognises all financial assets and liabilities on the trade date at sshich the Compan becomes a party to the contractual

provisions of the instruments Purchases and sales of financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised using trade date accounting

Derecogni!ion

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive

the contractual cash Ilows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset

are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Company is recognised as a separate asset or liability.

Where there is a modification of the terms of an existing financial liability or a part of it is accounted for as an cxtingsshmcnt of the original

financial liahilit-m. the directors assess whether the modification is significant or not, Where it is. the existing financial liability is dc—recognised and a

new financial liability recognised in its place Anv dit’fbrence between the carrying amount of a financial liability (or part of a financial liability)

e\tinguished and the consideration paid. including ans’ non—cash assets iranst’erred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in the Statement of

comprehensive income.

lhe Company derecognises a financial liability sshen its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expired.

Ojj.fa!tiiig

Financial assets and liabilities are set olf and the net amount presented in the Statement of financial position when, and only when, the Company has

a legal right io set of)’ the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability siniultaneouslv Income and

expenses are presented on a net basis onl sslien permitied h the accounting standards, or or gains and losses arising rum a group of smmimilar

transactions

Deemed bait to Oi’igoia!or

The Originator failed the derecognition criteria of lAS 39 when it sold the legal ownership of the collateral debt obligations to the Company as the

significant risks and rewards of the loans were not transferred to the Company Therefore, these loans remain on the Statement of financial position

of the Originator As such, the beneficial interest in the underlying portfolio is shown as a deemed loan in the tinancial statements. It is initially

recognised at ‘air value and subsequently measured at amortised cost,

Purchases and sales of the deemed loan are recognised on trade date - the date on which the Company commits to purchase or sell the assets. They

are initially recognised at cost and subsequently measured at arnortised cost. They are derecognised when the right to recover cash liows from the

itivestments have expired or the Company’ has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards ofowitership.

The Company recognises principal atid interest cash hiows from the underlying pool of collateral debt obligations only to the extent that it is entitled

to retain such cash hlows. Cash floss s attributable to the Originator are not recognised by the Company.

The Basis Swap entered into between the Company and the Originator is not recognised separately as a financial derivative instrument, as the

amounts payable under the swap reflect interest flows from the collateral debt obligations which are not recognised by the Company for accounting

purposes. Instead, the deemed loan to Originator is recognised with an interest rate which rellects the amount receivable under the swap receiving

‘[he deemed loan to the Originator is regularly assessed for impairment, based primarily on the performance of the underlying receivables.

Impao’mem on deemed loan

Full due diligence is conducted by the Collateral Manager prior to any investments being made by the Company. The transaction documentation sets

out eligibility criteria for the underlying assets. ‘I’he Company reviews the loan to assess impairment at least on a monthly basis.. In determining

whether an impairment loss should be recorded in the Statement of comprehensive income, the Company makes judgenients as to whether there is

ails’ observable data indicating that there is a nieasurahle decrease in the estimated future cash tlosss from the loan. This evidence may include

observable data indicating that there has been an adverse change in the payment status of borrowers

As at 31 December2015, there were no indications that the deenied loan to Originator was impaired (2014: Nil)

Debt sectn’ities at antoi’tised cost

All debt securities are initially recognised at the lair value of the consideration received less directly attributable costs. After initial recognition.

interest hearing loans and horrowinas are measured at ainortised cost using the effective interest method

Ti’ade and ol/iei’ i’eceirahles

Trade and other receivables do not carry any ititerest and are short-term in nature and are accordingly stated at cost as reduced by appropriate

allowances for estimated inecoverah,le amounts. sshere applicable

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(h) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held with banks and other short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of

less than three months, which are subject to insignificant risk of chances in their fair value, and are used by the Company in the management of its

short-teni commitments As the cash can only be used to meet certain specific liabilities and is not available to he used sith discretion, it is viewed

as restricted cash.

(i) Statement of cash flows

Interest income and interest expense are considered to come from the Company’s core operations, and are therefore classified as cash flows

aenerated from ooeratina activities in the Statement of cash tlosss

4. Critical accounting estimates and judgements

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events

that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The estumiates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adiustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities relate to

the accounting of the deemed loan and considerations of impairment of the deemed loan.

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk given the mismatch in the floating interest rate payments and receipts To manage the identified riskexposures, the Company has entered into a Basis Swap with BBPLC mirroring the cash flows from the deemed loan to convert to the floating ratebasis of the Notes issued. The Company limits its exposure to currency risk by purchasing assets denominated in GBP and since the Notes are alsodenominated in GBP, the Company is not exposed to any material currency risk.

Under the deal structure, the amount to be paid every 19 February, 9 May, 19 August and 19 November, by the Company will depend on theinterest proceeds received on the Basis Swap. In cases where the interest proceeds are deemed insufficient to cover the secured parties including thesenior note holders under the ‘Frust Deed, the Company may withdraw an aniount froni the expense reserve account to the extent required for suchamounts to be paid in t’ull The details on the expense reserve account are discussed below.

As the portft)lio of collateral is in the functional currency of the Company and as the subordinated notcholders assume any residual risk arising ‘rumthese imi-,trumnents. the directors are of view that the Company has minimal net interest and currency risk exposures.

Price risk is not relevant to the Company as the financial assets and liabilities are measured at ainonised cost

16. Financial risk management (continued)

(d) Liquidity riskLiquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulties in meeting obligations arising from its financial liabilities that are settled bydelisering cash or another financial asset, or that such obligations ssill have to be settled in a manner disadvantageous to the Company. TheCompany’s approach is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufYicient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normaland stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.Any quarterly shortfall on the interest proceeds to be paid to the Senior noteholders is covered by the expense reserve account. The expense reserveaccount has been designed to exceed the expected amount that will be required over the life of the trade to make up the shortfall on interestpayments. Any further shortfalls after payments made to secured parties including the senior note holders are to be assumed by the subordinated noteholders as set out in the Trust Deed.

Upon trade termination, the Company’s obligation to the note holders is limited to the net proceeds upon realisation of the collateral. Should the netproceeds be insufficient to make all payments due in respect of a particular series of Notes. the other assets of the Company will not he available forpayment and the deficit is instead borne by the noteholders according to the established prioritiesThe following table shows the maturity profile of the financial liabilities as at 31 December 2015 and 2014 The gross contractual cash lows of thedebt securities includes the interest and principal payments due to the senior noteholders

As of 31 December 2015

The interest and principal payments due to the subordinated noteholders have been excluded as this is subject to the established payment priorities asset out ri the ternis and conditions of the Notes.

(e) Fair value of financial assets and liabilitiesThere is no active market for the deemed loan to the Originator or the limited recourse Notes, therefore the directors have estimated the fair aloe ofboth the Notes and the deenied loan to the Originator b’ discounting the cash flows using a discount rate based upon coniparahle structures in themarket.

The fair value and accounting classification of the financial assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date are as t’ollows:

(f) Valuation offiiiancial instrumentsThe Company measures fair values using the folloss sg fair value hierarchy that reflects the signuticance of the inputs used in making themeasurements.

l.csel 2. Valuation techniques based on observable mpits. either directly I i.e. as prices) or indirectly (I e. derived from prices) This categoryincludes instruments valued using quoted market prices in active markets for similar instruinents quoted prices for identical or similar iitstruincntsin markets that are considered less than active, or other aluation techniques where all significant inputs are directls or indirectly obsers able front

Level 3: Valuation techniques using signi l’icjnt unobservable inputs. This category inclLidcs all instruments where the val LiatiOil technique includessmputs not based on observable data and the unobservable nipiits have a significant elYect on the instrument’s valuation. This category includesinstruments that are valued based on quoted prices for similar instruments where significant unobservable adjustments or assumptions are requiredto reflect differences between the instruments.

Fair value is the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable. willing parties in an arm’s length

Fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities that are traded in active markets, level 1, are based on quoted market prices or dealer pricequotations. For all other financial instruments the Company determines fair values using valuation techniques.Valuation techniques include net present value and discounted cash flow models, comparison to similar instruments for which market observableprices exist. Black-Scholes and polynomial option pricing models and other valuation models Assumptions and inputs used in valuation techniquesinclude risk-free and benchmark interest rates, eredit spreads and other parameters used in estimating discount rates, bond and equity prices, foreigncurrency exchange rates,, equity and equity index prices and expected price volatilitmes and correlations The objective of valuation techniques is toarrive at a fair value determination that reflects the price of the financial instrument at the reporting date that would have been detenisined by marketparticipants acting at ann’s length.

Level 2 prices uses widely recognised valuation models for determining the fair value of common and more simple financial instruments such asinterest rate and currency swaps that use only observable market data and require little management judgement and estimation Observable pricesand model inputs are tisually available in the market for listed debt and equity securities, exchange traded derivatives and simple over the counterderivatives. e.g. interest rate swaps Availability of observable market prices and model inputs reduces the need for management judgement andestimation and also reduces the uncertainty associated with determination of fair values. Availability of observable market prices and inputs variesdepending on the products and markets and is prone to changes based on specific events and general conditions in the financial markets.At 31 December 2015 and 2014. none of the assets or liabilities of the Company were valued using [.evel I or Level 3 pricingAll the assets and liabilities are carried at amortised cost. I’he fair value of the assets and liabilities are disclosed in Note 16 (e) above
