Warrants Issuance Programme
For guidance using this base prospectus (the Base Prospectus) and navigating between the different sections hereof, please refer to
the section headed "Base Prospectus User Guide on page 127 of this Base Prospectus (which is intended to assist investors in
review of this Base Prospectus but which should nevertheless be read in conjunction with the other sections of this Base Prospectus).
This Base Prospectus relates to a Warrants Issuance Programme (the Programme) pursuant to which each of Société Générale, SG Issuer,
SGA Société Générale Acceptance N.V. and Société Générale Effekten GmbH (each an Issuer and together the Issuers) may from time to time
issue warrants (the Warrants) denominated in any currency agreed by the Issuer of such Warrants (the relevant Issuer) and the relevant
Purchaser(s) (as defined below).
Warrants issued under the Programme may either be unsecured or secured (Secured Warrants), as specified in the applicable Final Terms and
as further described herein.
Payments and deliveries in respect of Warrants issued by SG Issuer, SGA Société Générale Acceptance N.V. and Société Générale Effekten
GmbH will be unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by Société Générale (the Guarantor) provided that, in the case of a delivery, a claim
under the guarantee provided by the Guarantor will result in the holder receiving the cash equivalent thereof.
The Warrants will be issued on a continuing basis to one or more of the Dealers specified in the "General Description of the Programme" and any
additional dealer appointed under the Programme from time to time (each a Dealer and together the Dealers). Warrants may also be issued to
third parties other than Dealers. Dealers and such third parties are referred to as Purchasers. The terms and conditions of the Warrants are set
out herein in the section headed "Terms and Conditions of the Warrants".
Warrants may be issued in global clearing system bearer form (Clearing System Global Warrants), in registered form (Registered Warrants),
in uncertificated form (Uncertificated Warrants) or in dematerialised bearer form (Dematerialised French Warrants). Registered Warrants may
be represented by one or more Registered Global Warrants (as defined in the section headed "Terms and Conditions of the Warrants").
Clearing System Global Warrants and Registered Global Warrants (as defined in the Section headed "Terms and Conditions of the Warrants") will
be deposited with a common depositary (Common Depositary) on behalf of Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. as operator of the Euroclear System
(Euroclear) and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (Clearstream, Luxembourg). Clearing System Global Warrants will also be deposited
with a depositary for Sociedad de Gestión de los Sistemos de Registro, Compensación y Liquidación de Valores, S.A. Unipersonal (Iberclear).
Uncertificated Warrants shall include Uncertificated Nordic Warrants and EUI Warrants (all as defined and further described in the section headed
"Form of the Warrants while in uncertificated and global form"). Uncertificated Warrants will be issued in uncertificated and dematerialised book-
entry form. Dematerialised French Warrants will be issued in dematerialised form (au porteur) and cleared and settled through Euroclear France
(all as defined and further described in the section headed "Form of the Warrants while in uncertificated and global form").
Application has been made to the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (the CSSF) in its capacity as competent authority under the
loi relative aux prospectus pour valeurs mobilières dated 10 July 2005, as amended, which implements the Prospectus Directive (the
Luxembourg Act) to approve this document as a base prospectus. Such application does not extend to money market instruments (as defined in
the Prospectus Directive) having a maturity of less than one year or to Warrants (which are not publically offered) to be admitted to trading on the
Euro MTF (as defined below). By approving this Base Prospectus, the CSSF gives no undertaking as to the economic or financial opportuneness
of the transaction or the quality or solvency of the Issuers in line with the provisions of article 7(7) of the Luxembourg Act. Application has also
been made to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for Warrants issued under the Programme to be admitted to trading on (i) the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange's regulated market and to be listed on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and (ii) the multilateral trading facilities Euro
MTF of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (the EuroMTF). The regulated market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange is a regulated market for the
purposes of the Markets in Financial Instrument Directive 2004/39/EC of 21 April 2004, as amended, (a Regulated Market). The EuroMTF is not
a regulated market within the meaning of the Markets in Financial Instrument Directive 2004/39/EC, as amended, of 21 April 2004 and
accordingly the CSSF is not the competent authority for the approval of this Base Prospectus in connection with Warrants issued under the
Programme which are admitted to trading on the EuroMTF, but the EuroMTF is subject to the supervision of the CSSF. Warrants issued under the
Programme may also be unlisted or listed and admitted to trading on any other market, including any other Regulated Market in any Member
State of the EEA and/or offered to the public in any Member State of the EEA. The applicable Final Terms in respect of the Issue of any Warrants
(as defined below) will specify whether or not such Warrants will be listed and admitted to trading on any market and/or offered to the public in
any Member State of the EEA and, if so, the relevant market.
Notice of the number of Warrants and the issue price of the Warrants which are applicable to each Issue (as defined in the Terms and Conditions)
of Warrants will be set out in a final terms document (the Final Terms) which (except in the case of Private Placement Warrants (as defined
below)) will be filed with the CSSF. The Programme provides that Warrants may be listed or admitted to trading, as the case may be, on such
other or further stock exchanges or markets or quotation systems as may be agreed between the relevant Issuer, the Guarantor and the relevant
Purchaser. Each Issuer may also issue unlisted Warrants and/or Warrants not admitted to trading on any market.
The Warrants will not be rated.
On 23 July 2014, SG Issuer, Société Générale Effekten GmbH and SGA Société Générale Acceptance N.V. issued a base prospectus describing
the Programme. This Base Prospectus supersedes and replaces the base prospectus dated 23 July 2014 and the supplements thereto for the

purpose of Warrants admitted to trading on a Regulated Market in any Member State of the EEA and/or offered to the public in any Member State
of the EEA and issued after the date of this Base Prospectus.
Warrants can be volatile instruments. Accordingly, prospective purchasers of the Warrants should ensure that they understand fully
the nature of the instruments and must be fully prepared to sustain a total loss of their investment in the Warrants (see Risk Factors
herein).

independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs, and its own appraisal of the
creditworthiness, of the relevant Issuer and (if applicable) the Guarantor. Neither this Base Prospectus
nor any other information supplied in connection with the Programme or the issue of any Warrants
constitutes an offer or invitation by or on behalf of any of the Issuers, the Guarantor, the Arranger or any
of the Dealers to any person to subscribe for or to purchase any Warrants.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION RELATING TO THE USE OF THIS BASE PROSPECTUS AND OFFER OF
WARRANTS GENERALLY
This Base Prospectus does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any
Warrants in any jurisdiction to any person to whom it is unlawful to make the offer or solicitation in such
jurisdiction. The distribution of this Base Prospectus and the offer or sale of Warrants may be restricted
by law in certain jurisdictions. None of the Issuers, the Guarantor, the Arranger or the Dealers represent
that this Base Prospectus may be lawfully distributed, or that any Warrants may be lawfully offered, in
compliance with any applicable registration or other requirements in any such jurisdiction, or pursuant
to an exemption available thereunder, or assume any responsibility for facilitating any such distribution
or offering. In particular, unless specifically indicated to the contrary in the applicable Final Terms, no
action has been taken by the Issuers, the Guarantor, the Arranger or the Dealers which is intended to
permit a public offering of any Warrants outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or distribution of
this Base Prospectus in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required. Accordingly, no
Warrants may be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, and neither this Base Prospectus nor any
advertisement or other offering material may be distributed or published in any jurisdiction, except under
circumstances that will result in compliance with any applicable laws and regulations. Persons into
whose possession this Base Prospectus or any Warrant comes must inform themselves about, and
observe, any such restrictions on the distribution of this Base Prospectus and the offering and sale of
Warrants (see the section headed "Subscription, Sale and Transfer Restrictions").
Each potential investor in the Warrants must determine the suitability of that investment in light of its
own circumstances. In particular, each potential investor may wish to consider, either on its own or with
the help of its financial and other professional advisers whether it:
(i)
has sufficient knowledge and experience to make a meaningful evaluation of the Warrants, the
merits and risks of investing in the Warrants and the information contained or incorporated by
reference in this Base Prospectus or any applicable supplement and in the applicable Final
Terms;
(ii)
has access to, and knowledge of, appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the context of its
particular financial situation, an investment in the Warrants and the impact the Warrants will
have on its overall investment portfolio;
(iii)
has sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an investment in the
Warrants, including Warrants in respect of which amounts are payable in one or more
currencies, or where the currency for payments is different from the potential investor's
currency;
(iv)
understands thoroughly the terms of the Warrants and is familiar with the behaviour of any
relevant underlying and financial markets; and
- 3 -

Important Information
(v)
is able to evaluate possible scenarios for economic, interest rate and other factors that may
affect its investment and its ability to bear the applicable risks.
Legal investment considerations may restrict certain investments. The investment activities of certain investors
are subject to legal investment laws and regulations, or review or regulation by certain authorities. Each potential
investor should consult its legal advisers to determine whether and to what extent (1) Warrants are legal
investments for it, (2) Warrants can be used as collateral for various types of borrowing and (3) other restrictions
apply to its purchase or pledge of any Warrants. Financial institutions should consult their legal advisers or the
appropriate regulators to determine the appropriate treatment of Warrants under any applicable risk-based capital
or similar rules.
The Warrants, any guarantee thereof and any securities to be issued or delivered on the exercise, cancellation or
settlement of the Warrants have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, (the Securities Act) or under any state securities laws and none of the Issuers nor the Guarantor
have registered or will register as an investment company under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the Investment Company Act).
Accordingly, the Warrants and any guarantee thereof may only be offered, sold, resold, delivered or otherwise
transferred in "offshore transactions" outside the United States in reliance of Regulation S, as amended, under
the Securities Act (Regulation S) to, and may only be legal y or beneficially held, owned, redeemed or exercised
by, or transferred or pledged to investors who are (1) located outside the United States, and who are (2) not U.S.
Persons (as defined in Regulation S) or non-U.S Persons (as defined in Rule 4.7 under the United States
Commodity Exchange Act of 1936, as amended (the Commodity Exchange Act) (as such terms may be
amended from time to time)), in each case in a transaction that will not cause the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the
case may be, to become required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.
Therefore, the Warrants and any guarantee thereof may not be legally or beneficially owned, held, redeemed or
exercised at any time by or transferred or pledged to any "U.S. Person" (as defined in Regulation S) or any
person in the United States. No person is obligated or intends to register the Warrants under the Securities Act
or any state securities laws in the United States of America. Unless otherwise noted, terms used in this
paragraph have the meanings given to them in Regulation S.
None of the Issuer, Transfer Agent nor their affiliates shal be obligated to recognise any resale or other transfer
of the Warrants made other than in compliance with these restrictions. Any transfer of the Warrants to any
person within the United States or any U.S. Person shall be void ab initio. The Issuer, Transfer Agent or their
affiliates may require any person within the United States or any U.S. Person to transfer the Warrants
immediately to a non-U.S. Person in an offshore transaction pursuant to Regulation S. The Issuer, Transfer
Agent or any of their affiliates may also cancel any such Warrants from any such person on a compulsory basis.
Furthermore, trading in the Warrants has not been approved by the United States Commodity Futures Trading
Commission and neither the Guarantor nor any Issuer have been or will be registered as a commodity pool
operator under the rules promulgated under the Commodity Exchange Act and no U.S. Person or any person in
the United States may at any time trade or maintain a position in the Warrants and any guarantee thereof.
To ensure compliance with Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Circular 230, each taxpayer is hereby notified
that: (a) any tax discussion herein is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used by the
taxpayer for the purpose of avoiding US federal income tax penalties that may be imposed on the
taxpayer; (b) any such tax discussion was written to support the promotion or marketing of the
transactions of matters addressed herein; and (c) the taxpayer should seek advice based on the
taxpayer's particular circumstances from an independent tax adviser.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each holder and beneficial owner of the Warrants (and
each employee, representative or other agent of each holder and beneficial owner of the Warrants) may disclose
to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions
- 4 -

Important Information
described herein and all materials of any kind that are provided to the holder or beneficial owner of the Warrants
relating to such tax treatment and tax structure (as such terms are defined in U.S. Treasury Regulation Section
1.6011-4). The authorisation of tax disclosure is retroactively effective to the commencement of discussions with
Warrantholders or beneficial owners of the Warrants regarding the transactions contemplated herein.
This Base Prospectus has been prepared on the basis that, except to the extent subparagraph (ii) below may
apply, any offer of Warrants in any Member State of the EEA which has implemented the Prospectus Directive
(each, a Relevant Member State) will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive, as
implemented in that Relevant Member State, from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of Warrants.
Accordingly any person making or intending to make an offer in that Relevant Member State of Warrants which
are the subject of an offering contemplated in this Base Prospectus as completed by Final Terms in relation to
the offer of those Warrants may only do so (i) in circumstances in which no obligation arises for the Issuer or any
Dealer to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a prospectus
pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive, in each case, in relation to such offer, or (ii) if a prospectus for
such offer has been approved by the competent authority in that Relevant Member State or, where appropriate,
approved in another Relevant Member State and notified to the competent authority in that Relevant Member
State and (in either case) published, all in accordance with the Prospectus Directive, provided that any such
prospectus has subsequently been completed by Final Terms which specify that offers may be made other than
pursuant to Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive in that Relevant Member State, such offer is made in the
period beginning and ending on the dates specified for such purpose in such prospectus or final terms, as
applicable and the Issuer has consented in writing to its use for the purpose of such offer. Except to the extent
subparagraph (ii) above may apply, neither the Issuer nor any Dealer has authorised, nor does it authorise, the
making of any offer of Warrants in circumstances in which an obligation arises for the Issuer or any Dealer to
publish or supplement a prospectus for such offer.
SERVICE OF PROCESS AND ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
The Issuers are corporations organised under the laws of Luxembourg, Curaçao, France and Germany,
respectively (each a Relevant Jurisdiction). All of the officers and directors named herein reside outside the
United States and al or a substantial portion of the assets of the relevant Issuer and of such officers and
directors are located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of
process in connection with a cause of action under the laws of a jurisdiction other than England and Wales
outside the Relevant Jurisdiction upon the relevant Issuer or such persons, or to enforce judgments against them
obtained in courts outside the Relevant Jurisdiction predicated upon civil liabilities of the relevant Issuer or such
directors and officers under laws other than those of the Relevant Jurisdiction, including any judgment predicated
upon United States federal securities laws.
PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION
Each Issuer maintains its financial books and records and prepares its financial statements in accordance with
financial reporting standards which differ in certain important respects from generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP).
