SUMMARY

Summaries are made up of disclosure requirements known as "Elements". These elements are numbered in Sections $A - E(A, I - E, 7)$ .

This summary contains all the Elements required to be included in a summary for this type of securities and issuer. Because some Elements are not required to be addressed, there may be gaps in the numbering sequence of the Elements.

Even though an Element may be required to be inserted in the summary because of the type of securities and issuer, it is possible that no relevant information can be given regarding the Element. In this case, a short description of the Element is included in the summary with the mention of "Not Applicable".

		SECTION A - INTRODUCTION AND WARNINGS
A.1	Introduction:	This summary should be read as an introduction to this Base Prospectus and any decision to invest in the Notes should be based on a consideration of this Base Prospectus as a whole by the investor.
		Where a claim relating to the information contained in this Base Prospectus is brought before a court, the plaintiff investor might, under the national legislation of the Member State, have to bear the costs of translating the Base Prospectus before the legal proceedings are initiated.
		Civil liability attaches only to those persons who have tabled the summary including any translation thereof, but only if the summary is misleading, inaccurate or inconsistent when read together with the other parts of this Base Prospectus or it does not provide, when read together with the other parts of this Base Prospectus, key information in order to aid investors when considering whether to invest in the Notes.
A.2	Consent:	Not Applicable. The Issuer does not consent to the use of this Base Prospectus in circumstances where there is no exemption from the obligation under the Prospectus Directive to publish a prospectus as the Notes will not be publicly offered.

	SECTION B – ISSUER
B.1	Legal and commerci al name of the Issuer:	The legal name of the issuer is Invested Bank plc (the "Issuer").
B.2	Domicile and legal form of the Issuer:	The Issuer is a public limited company registered in England and Wales under registration number 00489604. The liability of its members is limited.

		The Issuer was incorporated as a private limited company with limited liability on 20 December 1950 under the Companies Act 1948 and registered in England and Wales under registered number 00489604 with the name Edward Bates & Sons Limited. Since then it has undergone changes of name, eventually re-registering under the Companies Act 1985 on 23 January 2009 as a public limited company and is now incorporated under the name Invested Bank plc.
		The Issuer is subject to primary and secondary legislation relating to financial services and banking regulation in the United Kingdom, including, inter alia, the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, for the purposes of which the Issuer is an authorised person carrying on the business of financial services provision. In addition, as a public limited company, the Issuer is subject to the UK Companies Act 2006.
B.4b	Trends:	The Issuer, in its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018, reported operating profit before goodwill and acquired intangibles and after non-controlling interests of £136.3 million (2017: £161.1 million). The Specialist Bank continued to see good growth in loan portfolios and client activity which supported solid growth in net interest income. This was partially offset by lower investment and trading income, following particularly strong investment banking and client flow activity levels in the prior year. The Wealth $\&$ Investment business benefited from higher average funds under management and positive net inflows. Growth in costs primarily reflects planned investment in growing the client franchise businesses, notably for the continued build out of the private client offerings. Impairments on the legacy loan portfolio increased in anticipation of accelerated exits of certain assets in line with the strategy of managing down this portfolio. The balance sheet remains strong, supported by sound capital and liquidity ratios. At 31 March 2018, the Issuer had £5.6 billion of cash and near cash to support its activities, representing 46.8% of its customer deposits. Customer deposits have increased by 6.0% since 31 March 2017 to £12.0 billion at 31 March 2018. The Issuer's loan to deposit ratio was 80.7% as at 31 March 2018 (31 March 2017: 76.2%). At 31 March 2018, the Issuer's total capital adequacy ratio was 16.5%, common equity tier 1 (CET1) ratio was 11.8% and its leverage ratio was 8.5%. These disclosures incorporate the deduction of foreseeable charges and dividends as required by the Capital Requirements Regulation and European Banking Authority technical standards. Excluding this deduction, the CET1 ratio would be 0.13% higher. The credit loss charge as a percentage of average gross core loans and advances was 1.14% (2017: 0.90%). The Issuer's gearing ratio remains low with total assets to equity at 9.1 times at 31 March 2018.
B.5	The group:	The Issuer is the main banking subsidiary of Invested plc, which is part of an international banking group with operations in three principal markets: the United Kingdom and Europe, Asia/Australia and South Africa. The Issuer also holds certain of the Investec group's UK and Australia based assets and businesses.
B.10	Audit Report	Not applicable. There are no qualifications in the audit reports on the audited, consolidated financial statements of the Issuer and its subsidiary undertakings for the financial years ended 31 March 2017 or 31 March 2018.

return on the Notes means that investors may lose some or all of their investment.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Notes are not backed by or secured on the Preference Shares and accordingly, only a nominal amount of the Preference Shares may be issued by Zebra Capital II Limited regardless of the principal amount of the applicable issuance of Notes by the Issuer.

In this section, for ease of explanation rather than refer to the Notes being linked to the value of the Preference Share which is in turn linked to the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying. the Notes (including the return on the Notes) are described as being linked to the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying.

The return on the Notes is linked to an underlying instrument, being a basket of indices (the "Underlying"). The value of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying is used to calculate the redemption price of the Notes and accordingly affects the return (if any) on the Notes.

Kick Out Notes

If on one of the dates specified below (the "Automatic Early Redemption Valuation Date") the performance of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying, is greater than the level specified (the "Automatic Early Redemption Threshold"), the Notes will be redeemed at the relevant amount specified below (the "Automatic Early Redemption Amount") on the applicable date prior to maturity (the "Automatic Early Redemption" Date"):

Automatic Early Redemption Valuation Date*	Automatic Early Redemption Date	Automatic Early Redemption Amount	Automatic Early Redemption Threshold
2 December 2019	9 December 2019	108.55 per cent. of Issue Price	100 per cent. of Initial Index Level
1 December 2020	8 December 2020	$117.10$ per cent. of Issue Price	95 per cent. of Initial Index Level
1 December 2021	8 December 2021	$125.65$ per cent. of Issue Price	90 per cent. of Initial Index Level
1 December 2022	8 December 2022	134.20 per cent. of Issue Price	85 per cent. of Initial Index Level
1 December 2023	8 December 2023	142.75 per cent. of Issue Price	80 per cent. of Initial Index Level

		*Provided that if the Automatic Early Redemption Valuation Date is not a Scheduled Trading Day, the immediately preceding Scheduled Trading Day shall be the Automatic Early Redemption Valuation Date. The market price or value of the Notes at any times is expected to be affected by changes in the value of the Preference Share and the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying.
C.16	Expiration or maturity date:	The Maturity Date of the Notes is 9 December 2024.
C.17	Settlement procedure:	The Notes will be cash-settled.
C.18	Return on securities:	Series ZCP2018-49 are Kick Out Notes with Capital at Risk.
		The performance of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying will determine the redemption price of the Preference Share. This redemption price is used to calculate the final value of the Preference Share on a one for one basis. The percentage change in the final value of the Preference Share as against its issue price is then used to calculate the return on the Notes.
		As a result, the potential effect of the value of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying on the return on the Notes means that investors may lose some or all of their investment.
		In this section, for ease of explanation rather than refer to the Notes being linked to the value of the Preference Share which is in turn linked to the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying, Notes (including the return on the Notes) are described as being linked to the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying.
		Redemption provisions in respect of Kick Out Notes with Capital at Risk:
		These Notes have the potential for early maturity (kick out) on a certain date or dates specified in the Final Terms, depending on the level of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying at that time. If the Notes kick out early an investor will receive a return of their initial investment plus a fixed percentage payment.
		If there has been no kick out, the return on the Notes at maturity will be based on the performance of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying, and in certain circumstances this may result in the investor receiving an amount less than their initial investment.
		The potential payouts at maturity for Kick Out Notes with Capital at Risk are as follows:
		Scenario $A-Digital$ Return
		If at maturity the level of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying is greater than or equal to a specified percentage of the initial level of the worst performing index in the

		basket comprising the Underlying, an investor will receive a "Digital Return" being their initial investment multiplied by a specified percentage return.
		Scenario $B - No$ Return
		Not Applicable as "Trigger Event" is not specified as applicable in relation to the Notes.
		Scenario $C$ – Loss of Investment
		If at maturity the level of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying is less than a specified percentage of the initial level of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying, an investor's investment will be reduced by 1% for every 1% fall of the level of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying at maturity.
C.19	Exercise price or final reference price of the underlying:	The performance of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying will determine the redemption price of the Preference Share. This redemption price is used to calculate the final value of the Preference Share on a one for one basis. The percentage change in the final value of the Preference Share as against its issue price is then used to calculate the return on the Notes.
		In this section, for ease of explanation rather than refer to the Notes being linked to the value of the Preference Share which is in turn linked to the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying, Notes (including the return on the Notes) are described as being linked to the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying.
		The determination of the performance of the Underlying will be carried out by the Preference Share Calculation Agent, being Investec Bank plc.
		The Preference Share Calculation Agent will compare an initial level of the Underlying with a final level of the Underlying.
		The initial level of the Underlying will be the closing level on the Issue Date.
		The final level of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying will be the closing level as at the Valuation Time of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying on the final redemption valuation date.
		The level of the Underlying used to determine whether or not an automatic early redemption is applicable will be the closing level as at the Valuation Time on each automatic early redemption valuation date.
		The determination of the redemption amount of the Notes will be carried out by the Calculation Agent, being Investec Bank plc.
C.20	Type of the underlying:	The performance of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying will determine the redemption price of the Preference Share. This redemption price is used to calculate the final value of the Preference Share on a one for one basis. The percentage

of the Underlying.	change in the final value of the Preference Share as against its issue price is then used to calculate the return on the Notes. In this section, for ease of explanation rather than refer to the Notes being linked to the value of the Preference Share which is in turn linked to the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying, Notes (including the return on the Notes) are described as being linked to the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying.

	SECTION D - RISKS
D.2	Risks specific to the issuer:	In relation to Public Offers of the Notes, the Notes are designed for investors who are or have access to a suitably qualified independent financial adviser or who have engaged a suitably qualified discretionary investment manager, in order to understand the characteristics and risks associated with structured financial products.
		The following are the key risks applicable to the Issuer:
		Market risks, business and general macro-economic conditions and fluctuations as well as volatility in the global financial markets could adversely affect the Issuer's business in many ways.
		The Issuer is subject to risks arising from general macro-economic conditions in the countries in which it operates, including in particular the UK, Europe, Asia and Australia, as well as global economic conditions.
		The Issuer is subject to risks concerning customer and counterparty credit quality.
		Credit and counterparty risk is defined as the risk arising from an obligor's (typically a client's or counterparty's) failure to meet the terms of any agreement. Credit and counterparty risk arises when funds are extended, committed, invested, or otherwise exposed through contractual agreements, whether reflected on- or off-balance sheet.
		The Issuer's credit risk arises primarily in relation to its Specialist Banking business, through which it offers products such as private client mortgages and specialised lending to high income professionals and high net worth individuals and a range of lending products to corporate clients, including corporate loans, asset based lending, fund finance, asset finance, acquisition finance, power and infrastructure finance, resource finance and corporate debt securities. Within its Wealth & Investment business, the Issuer is subject to relatively limited settlement risk which can arise due to undertaking transactions in an agency capacity on behalf of clients.
		In accordance with policies overseen by its Central Credit Management department, the Issuer makes provision for specific impairments and calculates the appropriate level of portfolio impairments in relation to the credit and counterparty risk to which it is subject.
		Increased credit and counterparty risk could have a material adverse impact on the Issuer's business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

		The Issuer is subject to liquidity risk, which may impair its ability to fund its operations. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Issuer has insufficient capacity to fund increases in its assets, or that it is unable to meet its payment obligations as they fall due, without incurring unacceptable losses. This includes repaying depositors and repayments of wholesale debt. This risk is inherent in all banking operations and can be impacted by a range of institution-specific and market-wide events. The Issuer may have insufficient capital in the future and may be unable to secure additional financing when it is required. The prudential regulatory capital requirements applicable to banks have increased significantly over the last decade, largely in response to
		the financial crisis that commenced in 2008 but also as a result of continuing work undertaken by regulatory bodies in the financial sector subject to certain global and national mandates. These prudential requirements are likely to increase further in the short term, not least in connection with ongoing implementation issues, and it is possible that further regulatory changes may be implemented in this area in any event.
		If the Issuer fails to meet its minimum regulatory capital or liquidity requirements, it may be subject to administrative actions or sanctions. In addition, a shortage of capital or liquidity could affect the Issuer's ability to pay liabilities as they fall due, pay future dividends and distributions, and could affect the implementation of its business strategy, impacting future growth potential.
D.6	Risks specific to the securities:	Capital at Risk: The Notes are not capital protected. Accordingly, there is no guarantee that the return on a Note will be greater than or equal to the amount invested in the Notes initially or that an investor's initial investment will be returned. Investors may lose some or all of their initial investment.
		Unlike an investor investing in a savings account or similar investment, where an investor may typically expect to receive a low return but suffer little or no loss of their initial investment, an investor investing in the Notes may expect to potentially receive a higher return but may also expect to potentially suffer a total or partial loss of their initial investment.
		Unsecured Notes: Investors investing in unsecured Notes are advised to carefully evaluate the Issuer's credit risk when considering an investment in such Notes. If the Issuer became unable to pay amounts owed to the investor under the unsecured Notes, such investor does not have recourse to the underlying or any other security/collateral and, in a worst case scenario, investors may not receive any payments under the Notes. The Notes are unsecured obligations. They are not deposits and they are not protected under the UK's Financial Services Compensation Scheme or any deposit protection insurance scheme.

Investment Products: The Notes are not deposits and they are not
protected under the UK's Financial Services Compensation Scheme or
any deposit protection insurance scheme.

Return linked to performance of the relevant Preference Share: The return on the Notes is calculated by reference to the percentage change in value of one or more preference shares, the redemption price on such preference shares being based on the performance of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying. Poor performance of the relevant Underlying could result in investors, at best, forgoing returns that could have been made had they invested in a different product or, at worst, losing some or all of their initial investment.

In this section, for ease of explanation, the return on the Notes is summarised by reference to the performance of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying rather than the applicable Preference Share.

Return linked to performance of the relevant Underlying: The return on the Notes is calculated by reference to the performance of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying. Poor performance of the relevant Underlying could result in investors, at best, forgoing returns that could have been made had they invested in a different product or, at worst, losing some or all of their initial investment.

Downside risk: Since the Notes are not capital protected, if at maturity the level of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying is less than a specified level, investors may lose their right to return of all their principal at maturity and may suffer a reduction of their capital in proportion (or a proportion multiplied by a leverage factor) with the decline of the level of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying, in which case investors would be fully exposed to any downside of the worst performing index in the basket comprising the Underlying during such specified period.

SECTION E - OFFER
E.2 b	Reasons for the Offer and Use of Proceeds:	Not applicable. The use of proceeds is to make a profit and/or hedge risks.
E.3	Terms and Conditions of the Offer:	Not applicable.
E.4	Interests Material to the Issue:	The Issuer may be the Calculation Agent responsible for making determinations and calculations in connection with the Notes and may also be the Preference Share Calculation Agent and the valuation agent in connection with the Preference Share(s). Such determinations and calculations will determine the amounts that are required to be paid by the Issuer to holders of the Notes. Accordingly, when the Issuer acts as Calculation Agent, Preference Share Calculation Agent or Valuation Agent its duties as agent (in the interests of holders of the Notes) may conflict with its interests as Issuer of the Notes.
E.7	Estimated Expenses:	Not applicable. Expenses in respect of the offer or listing of the Notes are not charged by the Issuer or Offeror or Dealer to the investor.
