Notice of Annual General Meeting

Barclays PLC ("Barclays" or the "Company") announces that its 2021 Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held on Wednesday, 5 May 2021 at 11:00am at 1 Churchill Place, London E14 5HP and on an electronic platform which will enable shareholders to attend remotely.

At present, the UK Government's restrictions and guidance on non-essential travel and public gatherings remain in place. The UK Government has been clear that these restrictions and guidance will still be in place on 5 May 2021, meaning shareholders will not be able to attend the AGM physically.

The AGM is an important date in the Company's corporate calendar and an important opportunity to engage with shareholders. In order to maximise this engagement whilst respecting the restrictions and guidance on public gatherings, Barclays is for the first time holding the AGM as a combined physical and electronic meeting (a so-called "hybrid meeting") to enable shareholders to attend the AGM remotely and to vote and raise questions in real time.

Information regarding arrangements for attending the AGM remotely, raising questions and voting is set out in the Notice of AGM.

The Board will keep the arrangements for the AGM under review and may make further changes to allow physical shareholder attendance if the UK Government's restrictions and guidance permit this at the time of the AGM. However, the Company does not expect th is to be the case in light of the current restrictions and guidance. Any changes to the AGM arrangements will be published on the Company's website athome.barclays/agm and announced through a Regulatory Information Service. Shareholders should continue to monitor the Company's website for any announcements and updates.

Barclays would like to thank all shareholders for their co-operation and understanding in these challenging times.

In connection with the AGM, the following documents have been posted or made available to shareholders today:

• 1. Notice of the 2021 AGM; and

• 2. Proxy forms for the 2021 AGM.

The Notice of AGM is also available online athome.barclays/agm

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.1, copies of the above documents have been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection athttps://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism
