PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EEA RETAIL INVESTORS – the N&C Securities are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area ("EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC (as amended), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended). Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the N&C Securities or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the N&C Securities or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR SHOULD CONSULT ITS OWN FINANCIAL AND LEGAL ADVISORS ABOUT THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH AN INVESTMENT IN THE N&C SECURITIES AND THE SUITABILITY OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE N&C SECURITIES IN LIGHT OF THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES

Neither the Issuer nor any Dealer has authorised, nor do they authorise, the making of any offer of N&C Securities in any other circumstances.

PART A – CONTRACTUAL TERMS

SUMMARY OF THE N&C SECURITIES

Summaries are made up of disclosure requirements known as "Elements". These Elements are numbered in Sections A – E (A.1 – 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

Element
A.1 This summary should be read as an introduction to the Base Prospectus and the applicable Final Terms. Any decision to
invest in any N&C Securities should be based on a consideration of this Base Prospectus as a whole, including any
documents incorporated by reference and the applicable Final Terms. Where a claim relating to information contained in
the Base Prospectus and the applicable Final Terms is brought before a court in a Member State of the European
Economic Area, the plaintiff may, under the national legislation of the Member State where the claim is brought, be
required to bear the costs of translating the Base Prospectus and the applicable Final Terms before the legal proceedings
are initiated. Civil liability attaches to the Issuer in any such Member State solely on the basis of this summary, including
any translation of it, but only if the summary is misleading, inaccurate or inconsistent when read together with the other
parts of this Base Prospectus and the applicable Final Terms or, following the implementation of the relevant provisions of
Directive 2010/73/EU in the relevant Member State, it does not provide, when read together with the other parts of this
Base Prospectus and the applicable Final Terms, key information in order to aid investors when considering whether to
invest in the N&C Securities.
A.2 Certain Tranches of N&C Securities with a denomination of less than €100,000 (or its equivalent in any other currency)
may be offered in circumstances where there is no exemption from the obligation under the Prospectus Directive to
publish a prospectus. Any such offer is referred to as a "Non-exempt Offer".
The N&C Securities are not being offered to the public as part of a Non-exempt Offer.

SECTION B– ISSUER

Element
B.1 Legal and commercial name of the Issuer
Santander UK plc
B.2 Domicile / legal form / legislation / country of incorporation
The Issuer is a public limited company incorporated and domiciled in England and Wales, registered under the Companies Act
1985.
B.4b Trend information
The Group's financial performance is intrinsically linked to the UK economy and the economic confidence of consumers and
businesses. The sustainability of the UK economic recovery, along with its concomitant impacts on the Group's profitability,
remains a risk. Conversely, a strengthened UK economic performance may increase the possibility of a higher interest rate
environment and the Group notes that the Bank of England has commented that it expects to continue to raise interest rates in
2018. In such a scenario, other market participants might offer more competitive product pricing resulting in increased customer

attrition. The global credit market conditions have suffered from the general lack of liquidity in the secondary market for many types of instruments which may include instruments similar to the N&C Securities.

The Group faces substantial competition in all parts of its business. The market for U.K. financial services is highly competitive and the recent financial crisis continues to reshape the banking landscape in the U.K..

Financial services providers face increasingly stringent and costly regulatory and supervisory requirements, particularly in the areas of regulatory capital and liquidity management, the conduct of business, the structure of operations and the integrity of financial services delivery. Although the Group works closely with the Group's regulators and continually monitors the situation, future changes in law, regulation, fiscal or other policies can be unpredictable and are beyond the Group's control. No assurance can be given generally that laws or regulations will be adopted, enforced or interpreted in a manner that will not have an adverse effect on the Group's business.

On 23 June 2016, the UK held a referendum (the "UK EU Referendum") on its membership of the EU, in which a majority voted for the UK to leave the EU. Immediately following the result, the UK and global stock and foreign exchange markets commenced a period of significant volatility, including a steep devaluation of the pound sterling. There remains significant uncertainty relating to the process, timing and negotiation of the UK's exit from, and future relationship with, the EU and the basis of the UK's future trading relationship with the rest of the world. While the longer term effects of the UK EU Referendum are difficult to predict, its effects, in addition to the uncertainty created as a result of the outcome of the UK General Election in 2017, could include further financial instability and slower economic growth as well as higher unemployment and inflation in the UK. For instance, the UK government has stated its intention for the UK to leave both the single market and the customs union (thereby ceasing to be party to the global trade deals negotiated by the EU on behalf of its members) and this could affect the attractiveness of the UK as a global investment centre and increase tariff and non-tariff barriers for the UK's trading relationships and, as a result, could have a detrimental impact on UK economic growth. Potential further decreases in interest rates by the Bank of England or sustained low or negative interest rates would put further pressure on interest margins and adversely affect the Group's operating results, financial condition and prospects. Equally, further rises in interest rates (in addition to the rate rise in November 2017) could result in larger default losses which would also impact the Group's operating results, financial condition and prospects.

B.5 Description of the Group

The Issuer and its subsidiaries comprise the Issuer's immediate group (the "Santander UK Group"). The Issuer is a wholly owned subsidiary of Santander UK Group Holdings plc which is a subsidiary of Banco Santander, S.A. which is the ultimate parent company.

The Issuer and its subsidiaries, along with the other subsidiaries of Banco Santander, S.A., form part of the Banco Santander S.A. group (the "Santander Group").

SECTION D – RISKS

Element
D.2 include: Key risks regarding the Issuer
In purchasing N&C Securities, investors assume the risk that the Issuer may become insolvent or otherwise be unable to
make all payments due in respect of the N&C Securities. There are a wide range of factors which individually or together
could result in the Issuer becoming unable to make all payments due in respect of the N&C Securities. It is not possible to
identify all such factors or to determine which factors are most likely to occur, as the Issuer may not be aware of all relevant
factors and certain factors which it currently deems not to be material may become material as a result of the occurrence of
events outside the Issuer's control. However, the Issuer has identified in the Base Prospectus a number of factors which
could materially adversely affect its business and ability to make payments due under the N&C Securities, and it considers
that the risks identified in the Base Prospectus include all the principal risks of an investment in the N&C Securities. These
the Group's operating results, financial condition and prospects may be materially impacted by economic
conditions in the UK as well as regulatory capital, leverage and liquidity requirements imposed on the Issuer;
the Group's operating results, financial condition and prospects may be negatively affected by conditions in
global financial markets;
the Group is subject to liquidity requirements that could limit its operations, and changes to these requirements
may further limit and adversely affect the Group's operating results, financial condition and prospects;
the Group's financial results are constantly exposed to market risk. The Group is subject to fluctuations in interest
rates and other markets risks, which may materially and adversely affect it;
any reduction in the credit rating assigned to the Group, any member of the Group or to any Group debt securities
would be likely to increase the Group's cost of funding, require additional collateral to be placed and adversely
affect its interest margins and liquidity position;
the Group operates in a highly regulated environment that imposes costs and significant compliance requirements.
Changes in regulations may increase the cost and complexity of doing business, or may disadvantage the Group
relative to its competitors. The failure to comply with regulations could subject the Group to sanctions, force it to
cease providing certain services, or oblige it to change the scope or nature of its operations;
customers and counterparties that owe the Group money, securities or other assets may default on their
obligations to the Group due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, operational failure or other reasons; and
the Group's future success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of its key personnel,
its ability to recruit, train, retain and motivate personnel, and to ensure that employment contract terms are
appropriate.
D.6 Key risks regarding the N&C Securities
There are also risks associated with specified types of N&C Securities and with the N&C Securities and the
markets generally, including that, unlike a bank deposit, the N&C Securities are not protected by the Financial
Services Compensation Scheme ("FSCS") or other government protection scheme. As a result, neither the FSCS
not any other government will pay compensation to an investor in the N&C Securities upon the failure of the
Issuer. If the Issuer goes out of business or become insolvent, holders of the N&C Securities may lose all or part
of their investment in the N&C Securities;
investors in N&C Securities may lose up to the entire value of their investment in the N&C Securities as a result

of the occurrence of any of (a) the insolvency of the Issuer, (b) investors seeking to sell the N&C Securities prior to their scheduled redemption, (c) a decrease in the value of the Preference Shares to which the N&C Security is linked, and (d) amounts payable being subject to deductions for taxes and/or expenses;

  • the N&C Securities represent direct, unconditional, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer and rank equally without any preference among themselves with all other present and future direct, unconditional, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer;
  • the market value and the amount payable on redemption of the N&C Securities may be adversely affected by a number of factors, and the price at which a holder of N&C Securities may be able to sell N&C Securities prior to redemption may be at a substantial discount to the market value of such N&C Securities on the Issue Date. A holder of such N&C Securities may suffer a loss of some or up to all of the entire amount invested on redemption;
  • the N&C Securities will have no established trading market when issued, and one may never develop, or the N&C Securities may be illiquid. In such case, investors may not be able to sell their N&C Securities easily or at favourable prices; and
  • the N&C Securities will be settled by the Issuer through one or more clearing systems and agents. In addition investors may hold N&C Securities through one or more intermediaries. As a result it may be necessary to enforce rights under the N&C Securities through such indirect holding structure and delays and settlement risk may exist as a result.

Additionally, the risks relating to investment in the N&C Securities depend on their features and may include, inter alia, risks relating to (but not limited to) operational/business risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk, regulatory risk, reputational risk, competition risk, unsecured obligations, market risk, emerging market risk, hedging and potential conflicts of interest, tax liabilities, expenses and taxation, third party risk, structural risks relating to particular N&C Securities, including with respect to the preference shares or other reference item(s) (in the case of interest), no claim against the preference shares or other reference item(s) (in the case of interest) to which the N&C Securities relate, exchange rate risks, optional redemption risk, early redemption risk, settlement disruption, settlement risk, possible illiquidity of N&C Securities, equity risk, currency risk, underlying volatility risk, fund risk, failure to deliver due to illiquidity, inflation risk, modification, meetings, market disruption, a requirement to hold a minimum amount of N&C Securities, transfer restrictions, exchange, listing and legal regulation risk, risk arising from Calculation Agent discretion, over-allotment risk, risk relating to the discontinuation or withdrawal of the offer period, risk relating to inventory securities issues prior to their date of purchase and eurosystem eligibility risk.

Risk Warning

See D3 above. In addition:

  • investors in N&C Securities may lose up to the entire value of their investment in the N&C Securities as a result of the terms of the relevant N&C Securities as invested amounts are subject to the performance of Preference Shares; and
  • the Issue Price of the N&C Securities may be more than the market value of such N&C Securities as at the Issue Date, and the price of the N&C Securities in secondary market transactions.

SECTION E – OFFER

Element
E.2b Use of proceeds
The net proceeds from the issue of N&C Securities will be applied by the Issuer for its general corporate purposes.
E.3 Terms and conditions of the offer:
The N&C Securities are not being offered to the public in a Non-exempt Offer.
E.4 Description of any interest of natural and legal persons involved in the issue/offer that is material to the issue/offer

The relevant Dealers may be paid fees in relation to any issue of N&C Securities under the Programme. Any such Dealer
and its affiliates may also have engaged, and may in the future engage, in investment banking and/or commercial banking
transactions with, and may perform other services for, the Issuer and its affiliates in the ordinary course of business.
Other than as mentioned above, and save for any fees payable to the Dealer and to Fortem Capital Limited in its capacity as
arranger on behalf of the initial purchaser of the N&C Securities, so far as the Issuer is aware, no person involved in the
offer of the N&C Securities has an interest material to the offer, including conflicting interests.
E.7 Expenses charged to the investor by the Issuer
Not Applicable - No expenses will be charged to an investor by the Issuer.
