Banco Santander, S.A. (the “Issuer”)

Series 114 1.722% Senior Non Preferred Callable Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Notes due 2027 (CUSIP: 05964HAN5; ISIN: US05964HAN52) (the “Notes”)

 

Pursuant to Section 11.04 of the Senior Non Preferred Debt Securities Indenture, dated as of May 28, 2020 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Issuer and The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented and amended by the Third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 14, 2021, among the Issuer, the Trustee, as trustee, calculation agent and principal paying agent, and The Bank of New York Mellon SA/NV, Luxembourg Branch, as senior non preferred debt securities registrar (the “Third Supplemental Indenture” and the Base Indenture as supplemented and amended by the Third Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), we hereby notify you, as registered Holder of the Notes, of the Issuer’s election, pursuant to Section 11.10 of the Indenture and the terms of the Notes, to redeem the above-referenced Notes in their entirety (the “Redemption”). The details of the Redemption are as follows:

 

1.This notice is hereby given on September 1, 2026.

 

2.The Series 114 1.722% Senior Non Preferred Callable Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Notes due 2027 will be redeemed in its entirety on September 14, 2026 (the “Optional Redemption Date”).

 

3.The redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes together with accrued but unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Optional Redemption Date; provided, however, that a payment of interest which is payable on an Interest Payment Date which is the Optional Redemption Date, shall be payable to the holders of such Notes registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to the terms of the Indenture and the Notes (the “Redemption Price”).

 

4.Interest on the Notes shall cease to accrue on and after the Optional Redemption Date.

 

5.The aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed is $1,500,000,000, representing all Notes outstanding.

 

6.On the Optional Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Note to be redeemed. Cash in the amount of the Redemption Price, which is $1,500,000,000, will be delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee prior to or on the Optional Redemption Date. The Notes will be redeemed subject to the Notes being presented and surrendered for payment.

 

7.Pursuant to the Indenture, payment of the redemption price for the Notes will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Notes to The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as principal paying agent for the Notes. Notes should be surrendered for redemption in accordance with The Depository Trust Company’s (DTC) procedures therefor.

 

8.The CUSIP of the Notes is 05964HAN5, and the ISIN of the Notes is US05964HAN52.

Under current U.S. federal income tax law, in the case of a United States person (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes), backup withholding may apply to amounts payable at the Redemption, unless (i) the paying agent or applicable payor has received a properly completed U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 that establishes an exemption from backup withholding, (ii) the United States person is an exempt recipient (and establishes its exempt status if required by the paying agent or applicable payor) or (iii) the United States person otherwise establishes an exemption. An investor that is a beneficial owner of Notes and that is not a United States person (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) generally may establish an exemption from backup withholding by providing to the paying agent or applicable payor a properly completed, applicable IRS Form W-8. No additional amounts will be payable with respect to any backup withholding. Investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of the Redemption.
