Banco Santander, S.A. (the "Bank" or "Banco Santander"), in compliance with
the Securities Market legislation, hereby communicates the following:

OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION

End of the Buy-back Programme

Reference is made to our notice of inside information of 28 February 2023
(official registry number 1784), relating to the buyback programme of own
shares (the "Buy-back Programme" or the "Programme") approved by the Board of
Directors of Banco Santander. The Bank informs that, after the last
acquisitions mentioned below, the maximum investment provided for in the
Buy-back Programme was reached, having acquired a total of 269,848,953 own
shares, representing approximately 1.64% of the Bank's share capital, for an
aggregated amount of approximately 921 million euros (the maximum monetary
amount of the Programme). The acquisition of shares under the Buy-back
Programme has been communicated on a regular basis, pursuant to the provisions
of article 2.2 and 2.3 of the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No.
2016/1052. The Buy-back Programme has therefore been terminated as a
consequence of the above and in accordance with the terms set out when it was
announced.

As disclosed when the Buy-back Programme was launched, its purpose was to
reduce the Bank's share capital by redeeming the shares acquired thereunder.
The capital reduction, approved under section 5 A of the Agenda at the 2023
Ordinary General Shareholders' Meeting, second call held on 31 March 2023,
will be implemented as soon as the relevant regulatory authorization from the
European Central Bank is received.

Last transactions executed under the Programme.

Moreover, pursuant to article 5 of Regulation (EU) no. 596/2014 on Market
Abuse of 16 April 2014, and articles 2.2 and 2.3 of Commission Delegated
Regulation (EU) 2016/1052, of 8 March 2016, the Bank informs, that it has
carried out the following transactions over its own shares between 19 and 21
April 2023 (both inclusive):
