This is because the Issue Price includes the Selling Agent’s commission set forth above and also reflects certain hedging costs associated with the Notes.

RISK FACTORS
 
Your investment in the Notes involves significant risks.  Your decision to purchase the Notes should be made only after carefully considering the risks of an investment in the Notes, including those discussed below and in the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-2 of the prospectus supplement, with your advisers in light of your particular circumstances.  The Notes are not an appropriate investment for you if you are not knowledgeable about significant elements of the Notes or financial matters in general.  We also urge you to consult with your investment, legal, accounting, tax, and other advisers before you invest in the Notes.
 
The amount of interest payable on the Notes is capped and the amount of interest you receive may be less than the return you could earn on other investments.  The Interest Rate on the Notes for each quarterly Interest Period is capped for that period at the Coupon Cap of 7.00% per annum. Interest rates may change significantly over the term of the Notes, and it is impossible to predict what interest rates will be at any point in the future.  Although the Interest Rate on the Notes will be based on the level of 3 month USD LIBOR, the Interest Rate that will apply at any time on the Notes may be more or less than other prevailing market interest rates at such time and in any event will never exceed 7.00% per annum regardless of the level of 3 month USD LIBOR on any Interest Determination Date.  In addition, if 3 month USD LIBOR plus 1.00% is less than 7.00% per annum for any quarterly Interest Period, the cumulative interest rate for the year will be less than 7.00% per annum.  As a result, the amount of interest you receive on the Notes may be less than the return you could earn on other investments.
 
The credit risk of Lloyds Bank and LBG and their credit ratings and credit spreads may adversely affect the value of the Notes.  You are dependent on Lloyds Bank’s ability to pay all amounts due on the Notes, and therefore you are subject to the credit risk of Lloyds Bank and to changes in the market’s view of Lloyds Bank’s creditworthiness.  In addition, because the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Lloyds Bank’s parent company, LBG, you are also dependent on the credit risk of LBG in the event that Lloyds Bank fails to make any payment or delivery required by the terms of the Notes.  If Lloyds Bank and LBG were to default on their respective payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the Notes and you could lose your entire investment.  The credit ratings of Lloyds Bank and LBG are an assessment by rating agencies of their ability to pay their obligations, including those under the Notes.  Any actual or anticipated decline in Lloyds Bank’s and LBG’s credit ratings, or increase in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking credit risk, is likely to adversely affect the value of the Notes.  However, because the return on the Notes is dependent upon factors in addition to Lloyds Bank’s and LBG’s credit ratings, an improvement in their credit ratings will not necessarily increase the value of the Notes and will not reduce market risk and other investment risks related to the Notes.

The Issue Price of the Notes has certain built-in costs, including the Selling Agent’s commission and our cost of hedging, both of which are expected to be reflected in secondary market prices.  In determining the economic terms of the Notes, and consequently the potential return on the Notes to you, we have taken into account compensation to the Selling Agent for distributing the Notes, which is reflected in the Selling Agent’s commission described on the cover of this pricing supplement, as well as certain costs associated with hedging our obligations under the Notes. The Issue Price of the Notes reflects these factors. As a result, the value of your Notes on the Issue Date is expected to be less than the Issue Price. Assuming no change in market conditions or any other relevant factors, the price, if any, at which the Selling Agent or another purchaser is willing to purchase the Notes in secondary market transactions will likely be less than the Issue Price. This is due to, among other things, the fact that the Issue Price includes, and secondary market prices are likely to exclude, the Selling Agent’s commission with respect to, and the hedging costs associated with, the Notes.  The cost of hedging includes the projected profit that may be realized in consideration for assuming the risks inherent in managing the hedging transactions.  These secondary market prices are also likely to be reduced by the costs of unwinding the related hedging transactions.  A profit may be realized from the expected hedging activity even if investors do not receive a favorable investment return under the terms of the Notes or in any secondary market transaction.  In addition, any secondary market prices may differ from values determined by pricing models used by RBCCM, as a result of dealer discounts, mark-ups or other transaction costs.

The market value of the Notes prior to maturity will be influenced by many unpredictable factors, and may be less than the Issue Price.  The market value of the Notes may be less than the Issue Price of the Notes.  The market value of the Notes may be affected by a number of factors that may either offset or magnify each other, including the following:

·     
the current and projected levels of 3 month USD LIBOR;
 
 
 
PS-4

 
 
 
   
 
$8,500,000
Floating-Rate Notes Linked to 3 Month USD LIBOR
Due July 27, 2018
 
 
 
·    
the time remaining to maturity of the Notes; in particular, as a result of a “time premium,” the Notes may have a value above that which would be expected based on the level of the Interest Rates and the level of 3 month USD LIBOR at such time the longer the time remaining to maturity.  A “time premium” results from expectations concerning the level of 3 month USD LIBOR during the period prior to maturity of the Notes.  As the time remaining to the maturity of the Notes decreases, this time premium will likely decrease and, depending on the level of 3 month USD LIBOR at such time, may adversely affect the value of the Notes;

·    
the aggregate amount outstanding of the Notes;

·     
the level, direction, and volatility of market interest and yield rates generally;

·     
geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory, geographical, agricultural, judicial or other events that affect the markets generally;

·     
the supply and demand for the Notes in the secondary market, if any; and

·     
the actual or perceived creditworthiness of Lloyds Bank, as the Issuer of the Notes, and LBG, as the Guarantor of Lloyds Bank’s obligations under the Notes, including actual or anticipated downgrades in LBG’s or Lloyds Bank’s credit ratings.

Some or all of these factors will influence the price that you will receive if you sell your Notes prior to maturity in the secondary market, if any.  If you sell your Note before maturity, the price that you receive may be less, and may be substantially less, than the Issue Price or the price which you paid.

The Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange and there may be little or no secondary market for the Notes.  The Notes will not have an established trading market when issued and the Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange; accordingly, there may be little or no secondary market for the Notes and, as such, information regarding independent market pricing for the Notes may be very limited or non-existent.  Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the Notes easily.  We, the Selling Agent and/or its affiliates may purchase and sell the Notes from time to time in the secondary market, but we, the Selling Agent and/or its affiliates are not obligated to do so.  If we, the Selling Agent and/or its affiliates make such a market in the Notes, we, the Selling Agent and/or any such affiliate may stop doing so at any time and for any reason without notice.  Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the Notes, the prices at which you may be able to trade your Notes will probably depend on the price, if any, at which we, the Selling Agent and/or its affiliates may be willing to buy the Notes.  There is no assurance that there will be a secondary market for any of the Notes.  Accordingly, you should be willing to hold the Notes to stated maturity, and you may incur a loss if you sell your Notes prior to the maturity.

There may be potential conflicts of interest between investors in the Notes and us and our affiliates and the Selling Agent and its affiliates.  We and our affiliates and the Selling Agent and its affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the Notes, including acting as Calculation Agent and hedging our obligations under the Notes.  Trading activities related to short-term and long-term interest rate swaps and other instruments that may affect interest rates have been entered into or may be entered into on behalf of us, our affiliates, the Selling Agent, its affiliates or customers other than for the account of the investors in the Notes or on their behalf.  In addition, we, our affiliates, the Selling Agent and its affiliates have engaged in or expect to engage in trading activities related to interest rate movements that are not for the account of investors of the Notes or on their behalf.  These trading activities may present a conflict between the investors’ interests in the Notes and the interests we, our affiliates and the Selling Agent and its affiliates will have in their proprietary accounts in facilitating transactions, including block trades and options and other derivatives transactions, for their customers and in accounts under their management.  In performing these activities, the economic interests of us and our affiliates, the Selling Agent and its affiliates and the Calculation Agent are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the Notes. As described below under “Use of Proceeds; Hedging”, we, the Selling Agent and/or its affiliates may hedge our obligations under the Notes by purchasing securities, futures, options or other derivative instruments with returns linked or related to changes in the level of 3 month USD LIBOR, and we may adjust these hedges by, among other things, purchasing or selling securities, futures, options or other derivative instruments at

any time. It is possible that we, the Selling Agent and/or its affiliates could receive substantial returns from these hedging activities while the value of the Notes declines.

There may be potential conflicts of interest between investors in the Notes and the Calculation Agent.  The Calculation Agent will, among other things, decide the amount of your payment for any Interest Payment Date on the Notes.  RBCCM will serve as the Calculation Agent.  We may change the Calculation Agent after the Issue Date without notice to you.  The Calculation Agent will make determinations and exercise its judgment when performing its functions.  The exercise of this discretion by the Calculation Agent may affect payments on the Notes, which could result in a conflict of interest.

We and our affiliates and the Selling Agent and its affiliates have published or may in the future publish reports, express opinions or provide recommendations and engage in other transactions that could adversely affect the value of the Notes.  We and our affiliates and the Selling Agent and its affiliates have published or may in the future publish reports 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 such reports, opinions or recommendations may not be consistent with each other and may be modified from time to time without notice.  Investors should make their own independent investigation of the merits of investing in the Notes.

We and the Selling Agent or any of its affiliates also may issue, underwrite or assist unaffiliated entities in the issuance or underwriting of other securities or financial instruments that may have features similar to those of the Notes, including similar rates of interest or maturities.  By introducing competing products into the marketplace in this manner, we and the Selling Agent or its affiliates could adversely affect the value of the Notes.

Historical levels of 3 month USD LIBOR should not be taken as an indication of the future levels of such rate.  The historical performance of 3 month USD LIBOR, which is included below, should not be taken as an indication of the future performance of 3 month USD LIBOR during the term of the Notes.  Changes in the level of 3 month USD LIBOR will affect the trading prices of the Notes, but it is impossible to predict whether the level of 3 month USD LIBOR will rise or fall.

The Notes may not be a suitable investment for you under certain circumstances.  The Notes may not be a suitable investment for you, if, among other things:
 
·     
you are unwilling to forgo guaranteed market interest rates for the term of the Notes;
 
·     
you seek assurances that there will be a liquid market if and when you want to sell the Notes prior to maturity; or
 
·     
you are unwilling or are unable to assume the credit risk associated with Lloyds Bank, as the Issuer of the Notes, and LBG, as the Guarantor of the Issuer’s obligations under the Notes.

SUMMARY TAX CONSEQUENCES
 
You should review carefully the section in the prospectus supplement entitled “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”.  The Notes should be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as “variable rate debt instruments” that are issued without original issue discount.  Assuming this characterization is respected, you will be required to include payments of stated interest in income when they are received or accrued, in accordance with your method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and gain or loss realized upon the sale, exchange or redemption of the Notes generally will be capital gain or loss.  Interest income earned with respect to the Notes will be foreign-source income.
 
For a discussion of U.K. tax considerations relating to the Notes, you should refer to the section in the prospectus supplement entitled “Taxation in the United Kingdom”.
 
We do not provide any advice on tax matters.  You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the Notes, as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

USE OF PROCEEDS; HEDGING
 
The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be used as described under “Use of Proceeds” in the prospectus and to hedge market risks of Lloyds Bank associated with its obligation to pay the applicable interest payments and the payment amount at maturity of the Notes.

We, the Selling Agent and/or its affiliates may hedge our obligations under the Notes by purchasing securities, futures, options or other derivative instruments with returns linked or related to changes in the level of 3 month USD LIBOR, and we may adjust these hedges by, among other things, purchasing or selling securities, futures, options or other derivative instruments at any time.   Our cost of hedging will include the projected profit that such counterparty expects to realize in consideration for assuming the risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the Notes.  Because hedging our obligations entails risk and may be influenced by market forces beyond our or our counterparty’s control, such hedging may result in a profit that is more or less than expected, or could result in a loss.  It is possible that we, the Selling Agent and/or its affiliates could receive substantial returns from these hedging activities while the value of the Notes declines.

We have no obligation to engage in any manner of hedging activity and we will do so solely at our discretion and for our own account. No holder of the Notes will have any rights or interest in our hedging activity or any positions we or any unaffiliated counterparty may take in connection with our hedging activity.

The hedging activity discussed above may adversely affect the value of the Notes from time to time. See “Risk Factors— The Issue Price of the Notes has certain built-in costs, including the Selling Agent’s commission and our cost of hedging, both of which are expected to be reflected in secondary market prices” and “Risk Factors—There may be potential conflicts of interest between investors in the Notes and us and our affiliates and the Selling Agent and its affiliates” for a discussion of these adverse effects.

SUPPLEMENTAL PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
We have agreed to sell to RBCCM and RBCCM has agreed to purchase from us the aggregate principal amount of the Notes specified on the front cover of this pricing supplement at $982.50 per $1,000 of the principal amount of the Notes, resulting in aggregate proceeds to us of $8,351,250.  RBCCM will receive commissions from us equal to $17.50 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, or $148,750.00 of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, and may retain all or a portion of these commissions or use all or a portion of these commissions to pay selling concessions or fees to other dealers.  RBCCM has informed us that such concessions may vary from dealer to dealer and that not all dealers will purchase or repurchase the Notes at the same concession.  You can find more information in the section entitled “Supplemental Plan of Distribution” on page S-26 of the prospectus supplement.
 
RBCCM has agreed to reimburse us for certain expenses relating to the offering in an amount up to $25,000.
 
We have entered or will enter into one or more hedging transactions in connection with this offering of Notes. See “Use of Proceeds; Hedging” above.  In addition, from time to time, RBCCM and its affiliates have, and in the future may, engage in transactions with and perform services for us for which they have been, and may be, paid customary fees.  In particular, an affiliate of RBCCM is our swap counterparty for a hedge of our obligations under the Notes and will be paid customary fees in connection with such hedging.
 
In the future, the Selling Agent or any of its affiliates may repurchase and resell the offered Notes in market-making transactions, with resales being made at prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of resale or at negotiated prices.
 
The Notes are new issues of securities with no established trading markets.  We have been advised by the Selling Agent that the Selling Agent intends to make a market in the securities, but it is not obligated to do so and may discontinue market making at any time for any reason without notice.  No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the trading market for the Notes.
