PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(To Prospectus dated October 9, 2015)
Santander UK Group Holdings plc
$1,000,000,000 3.571% Notes due 2023
The 3.571% Notes due January 10, 2023, which we refer to as the "notes," will bear interest at a rate of 3.571% per year. We will pay interest on the notes each January 10 and
July 10, and on the maturity date of the notes, commencing on July 10, 2017.
Unless we redeem the notes earlier, the notes will mature on January 10, 2023. There is no sinking fund for the notes.
We may redeem the notes, at our option, in whole, but not in part, on January 10, 2022, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes, plus accrued and
unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. We may also redeem all but not some of the notes at any time at 100% of their principal amount plus accrued interest if certain
tax events described in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus occur.
The notes will be issued in denominations of $200,000 and in multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The notes will constitute our direct, unconditional, unsecured and unsubordinated
obligations ranking pari passu, without preference among themselves, with all our other outstanding unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, present and future, except such obligations as are
preferred by operation of law.
Notwithstanding any other term of the notes, the indenture or any other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between Santander UK Group Holdings plc (the
"Issuer") and any holder of notes, by its acquisition of the notes, each holder of notes (including each holder of a beneficial interest in the notes) acknowledges, accepts, agrees to be
bound by and consents to: (a) the effect of the exercise of the UK bail-in power (as defined below) by the relevant UK resolution authority (as defined below) whether or not
imposed with prior notice, that may include and result in any of the following, or some combination thereof: (i) the reduction of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due (as defined
below); (ii) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due on the notes into shares, other securities or other obligations of the Issuer or another person (and the issue to or
conferral on the holders of notes of such shares, securities or obligations), including by means of an amendment, modification or variation of the terms of the notes; (iii) the
cancellation of the notes; (iv) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the notes or amendment of the amount of interest payable on the notes, or the date on which the
interest becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period; and (b) the variation of the terms of the notes, if necessary, to give effect to the exercise of the
UK bail-in power by the relevant UK resolution authority.
For these purposes, "Amounts Due" are the principal amount of, and accrued but unpaid interest, including any Additional Amounts due on, the notes. References to
principal and interest will include payments of principal and interest that have become due and payable but which have not been paid, prior to the exercise of any UK bail-in power
by the relevant UK resolution authority.
As used in this prospectus supplement, the "UK bail-in power" is any write-down, conversion, transfer, modification, or suspension power existing from time to time under,
and exercised in compliance with, any laws, regulations, rules or requirements in effect in the United Kingdom, relating to the transposition of Directive 2014/59/EU establishing a
framework for the recovery and resolution of credit institutions and investment firms as amended from time to time ("BRRD"), including but not limited to the UK Banking Act
2009, as the same may be amended from time to time, including by the Financial Services (Banking Reform) Act 2013, and the instruments, rules and standards created thereunder,
pursuant to which: (i) any obligation of a regulated entity (as defined below) (or other affiliate of such regulated entity) can be reduced, cancelled, modified, or converted into shares,
other securities, or other obligations of such regulated entity or any other person (or suspended for a temporary period); and (ii) any right in a contract governing an obligation of a
regulated entity may be deemed to have been exercised.
A reference to a "regulated entity" is to any BRRD undertaking as such term is defined under the PRA Rulebook promulgated by the United Kingdom Prudential Regulation
Authority, as amended from time to time, which includes, certain credit institutions, investment firms, and certain of their parent or holding companies and a reference to the
"relevant UK resolution authority" is to the Bank of England or any other authority with the ability to exercise a UK bail-in power.
By its acquisition of the notes, each holder of the notes (including each holder of a beneficial interest in the notes), to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act of
1939, will waive any and all claims, in law and/or in equity, against the trustee for, agree not to initiate a suit against the trustee in respect of, and agree that the trustee will not be
liable for, any action that the trustee takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the exercise of the UK bail-in power by the relevant UK resolution authority
with respect to the notes.

Recent Developments
On December 22, 2016, we announced that the Board of Santander UK Group Holdings plc (the "Board") had approved a revised business model
and legal entity structure to comply with the ring-fencing requirements in the UK (specifically, the Banking Reform Act), which must be implemented
by January 1, 2019. In this context, and in light of the changeable macro environment, the Board concluded that we could provide greater certainty for
our customers with a 'wide' ring-fence structure, rather than the 'narrow' ring-fence originally envisaged. Under this revised model Santander UK plc,
the ring-fenced bank, will serve our retail, commercial and corporate customers. Abbey National Treasury Services plc will no longer constitute the non
ring-fenced bank. Its activities will be revised as part of the new ring-fencing model. We intend to complete all necessary actions to implement ring-
fencing well in advance of the legislative implementation deadline of January 1, 2019. Implementation remains subject to regulatory and court
approvals and various other authorizations.

issue as compared to June 30, 2016 resulted predominantly from issuances of debt securities and the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates, offset

bonds and maturities totaling £2,427 million. There were no new issuances of Motor notes and maturities totaling £263 million.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES
The following description of the particular terms of the notes offered by this prospectus supplement adds information to the description of the
general terms and provisions of debt securities under the heading "Description of the Debt Securities" beginning on page 14 of the accompanying
prospectus. If there is any inconsistency between the following summary and the description in the accompanying prospectus, the following summary
governs.
For the avoidance of doubt, each reference to "holder," "holders" and "you" will be deemed to include the beneficial owners of the notes.
General
We will issue the notes pursuant to an indenture, dated October 9, 2015, between the Issuer and Law Debenture Trust Company of New York
("Law Debenture"), as supplemented and amended by the third supplemental indenture, dated August 5, 2016, between the Issuer and Law Debenture,
and as supplemented and amended by the fourth supplemental indenture expected to be entered into on January 10, 2017, between the Issuer, Law
Debenture and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee in relation to the notes offered by this prospectus supplement (as amended and
supplemented, the "indenture"). For the purpose of the notes offered by this prospectus supplement only, references to "the trustee" or the "paying
agent" in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus are deemed to refer to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, in its capacity as
such under the indenture in relation to the notes. The notes will be a series of our debt securities. We will issue the notes in the aggregate principal
amount of $1,000,000,000. The notes will mature on January 10, 2023. We will issue the notes only in book-entry form, in minimum denominations of
$200,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
The trustee makes no representations, and will not be liable with respect to, the information set forth in this prospectus supplement.
Interest Payments
The notes will bear interest at a rate of 3.571% per year. The notes will accrue interest from and including January 10, 2017, or from and including
the most recent date to which interest has been paid (or provided for), to but excluding the next date upon which interest is required to be paid.
Interest will be payable on the notes twice a year, on January 10 and July 10, and on the maturity date of the notes, commencing July 10, 2017 to
the person in whose name the notes are registered at the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day, whether or not a business day, that precedes the
applicable date on which interest will be paid. Interest on the notes will be paid on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.
"Business day" means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions in the City of
New York or London, England are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close.
If the interest payment date or redemption date, or the maturity date, for the notes would fall on a day that is not a business day, then the interest
payment date or redemption date, or the maturity date, as the case may be, will be postponed to the next succeeding business day, but no additional
interest shall accrue and be paid unless we fail to make payment on such next succeeding business day.
Optional Redemption
We may redeem the notes, at our option, in whole, but not in part, on January 10, 2022, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal
amount of the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date.
S-10
Table of Contents
If we elect to redeem the notes, we will provide notice in writing by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each holder of the notes, at least 30 days
but not more than 60 days prior to the redemption date specified in the notice.
The notice of redemption will state:
·
the redemption date;
·
the redemption price;
·
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1649373/000104746917000052/a2230604z424b5.htm[1/5/2017 9:58:39 AM]


that on the redemption date the redemption price will become due and payable upon each of the notes and that interest thereon will cease
to accrue on or after the said date;
·
the place or places where the notes are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and
·
the CUSIP and ISIN numbers of the notes.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the notes are held in book-entry form through DTC, we may give such notice in any manner permitted or required
by DTC.
Unless we default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest shall cease to accrue on the notes.
Additional Amounts
The paragraphs in "Description of the Debt Securities--Additional Amounts" in the accompanying prospectus are hereby replaced in their entirety
by the following:
Amounts to be paid on any series of debt securities, including the notes, will be made without deduction or withholding for, or on account
of, any and all present and future income, stamp and other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings now or
hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of the country in which we are organized or any political subdivision
or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax (the "taxing jurisdiction"), unless such deduction or withholding is required by fiscal or
other laws, regulations and directives. If at any time a taxing jurisdiction requires us to make such deduction or withholding, we will pay
additional amounts with respect to the principal of, interest and any other payments on, the debt securities ("Additional Amounts") that are
necessary in order that the net amounts paid to the holders of those debt securities, after the deduction or withholding, shall equal the amounts
which would have been payable on that series of debt securities if the deduction or withholding had not been required. However, this will not
apply to any such amount that would not have been payable or due but for the fact that:
·
the holder or the beneficial owner of the debt securities is a domiciliary, national or resident of, or engaging in business or
maintaining a permanent establishment or physically present in, a taxing jurisdiction or otherwise having some connection with
the taxing jurisdiction other than the holding or ownership of a debt security, or the collection of any payment of, or in respect of,
principal of, or any interest or other payment on, any debt security of the relevant series;
·
except in the case of a winding up in the UK, the relevant debt security is presented (where presentation is required) for payment
in the UK;
·
the relevant debt security is presented (where presentation is required) for payment more than 30 days after the date payment
became due or was provided for, whichever is later, except to the extent that the holder would have been entitled to the
Additional Amounts on presenting the debt security for payment at the close of that 30 day period;
S-11
Table of Contents
·
the holder or the beneficial owner of the relevant debt security or the beneficial owner of any payment of or in respect of
principal of, or any interest or other payment on, the debt security failed to comply with a request by us or our liquidator or other
authorized person addressed to the holder (x) to provide information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the
holder or the beneficial owner or (y) to make any declaration or other similar claim to satisfy any information requirement,
which, in the case of (x) or (y) is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of a taxing
jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from all or part of the tax, assessment or other governmental charge; or
·
any combination of the above items;
nor shall Additional Amounts be paid with respect to the principal of, premium, if any, and any interest on, the debt securities to any holder
who is a fiduciary or partnership or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership other than the sole beneficial owner of
such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of any taxing jurisdiction to be included in the income for tax purposes
of a beneficiary or partner or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have
been entitled to such Additional Amounts, had it been the holder. For the avoidance of doubt, all payments in respect of the debt securities will
be made subject to any withholding or deduction required pursuant to any fiscal or other laws, regulations and directives, including FATCA, and
we shall not be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the principal of, interest and any other payments on, the debt securities on
account of any such deduction or withholding required pursuant to FATCA.
Whenever we refer in this prospectus supplement, in any context, to the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest or
