RISK FACTORS
The Issuer believes that the following factors may affect its ability to fulfill its obligations
under the Notes. Many of these factors are contingencies which may or may not occur
and the Issuer is not in a position to express a view on the likelihood of any such
contingency occurring.
In addition, factors which are material for the purpose of assessing the market risks
associated with the Notes are also described below.
The Issuer believes that the factors described below represent the principal risks
inherent in investing in the Notes, but the inability of the Issuer to pay interest, principal
or other amounts on or in connection with any Notes may be caused by events the
occurrence of which, in the view of the Issuer, is so unlikely that they should not be
considered significant risks based on information currently available to the Issuer or
which it may not currently be able to anticipate. Prospective investors should also read
the detailed information set out elsewhere in this Prospectus and reach their own views
prior to making any investment decision.
RISK FACTORS RELATING TO THE ISSUER
See "Regulation, Risk Factors, Certain disclosures about market risks and related
matters" in the 2012 Annual Report (as defined below) which is incorporated by
reference in this Prospectus (see "Documents incorporated by reference" below).
RISK FACTORS RELATING TO THE NOTES
Each potential investor in the Notes must determine the suitability of that investment in
light of its own circumstances. In particular, each potential investor should:
(i) have sufficient knowledge and experience to make a meaningful evaluation of the
Notes, the merits and risks of investing in the Notes and the information contained
or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus or any applicable supplement;
(ii) have access to, and knowledge of, appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the
context of its particular financial situation, an investment in the Notes and the impact
the Notes will have on its overall investment portfolio;
(iii) have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an
investment in the Notes;
(iv) understand thoroughly the terms of the Notes and be familiar with the behaviour of
any relevant indices and financial markets; and
(v) be able to evaluate (either alone or with the help of a financial adviser) possible
scenarios for economic, interest rate and other factors that may affect its investment
and its ability to bear the applicable risks.

Risks related to the market generally
Market value of the Notes
The market value of the Notes will be affected by the creditworthiness of the Issuer
and/or that of the AXA Group and a number of additional factors including, but not limited
to, market interest and yield rates and the time remaining to the maturity date.
The value of the Notes depends on a number of interrelated factors, including economic,
financial and political events in France or elsewhere, including factors affecting capital
markets generally and the stock exchanges on which the Notes are traded. The price at
which a Noteholder will be able to sell the Notes prior to maturity may be at a discount,
which could be substantial, from the issue price or the purchase price paid by such
purchaser.
Liquidity risks/Trading market for the Notes
Notes may have no established trading market when issued, and one may never
develop. If a market does develop, it may not be very liquid. Therefore, investors may
not be able to sell their Notes easily or at prices that will provide them with a yield
comparable to similar investments that have a developed secondary market. This is
particularly the case for Notes that are especially sensitive to interest rate, currency or
market risks, are designed for specific investment objectives or strategies or have been
structured to meet the investment requirements of limited categories of investors. These
types of Notes generally would have a more limited secondary market and more price
volatility than conventional debt securities. Illiquidity may have a severely adverse effect
on the market value of Notes.
Investors may not be able to sell Notes readily or at prices that will enable investors to
realise their anticipated yield. No investor should purchase Notes unless the investor
understands and is able to bear the risk that certain Notes will not be readily sellable,
that the value of Notes will fluctuate over time and that such fluctuations will be
significant.
Interest rate risks
Investment in 2022 Fixed Rate Notes and 2024 Fixed Rate Notes involves the risk that
subsequent changes in market interest rates may adversely affect the value of the Fixed
Rate Notes.
Investors will not be able to calculate in advance their rate of return on the Floating Rate
Notes
Interest income on the Floating Rate Notes cannot be anticipated. Due to varying
interest income, investors are not able to determine a definite yield of Floating Rate
Notes at the time they purchase them, so that their return on investment cannot be
compared with that of investments having longer fixed interest periods. Investors are
exposed to reinvestment risk if market interest rates decline. That is, investors may
reinvest the interest income paid to them only at the relevant lower interest rates then
prevailing. In addition, the Issuer's ability to also issue fixed rate notes may affect the

5

market value and the secondary market (if any) of the Floating Rate Notes (and vice
versa).
The margin on the Floating Rate Note will not change throughout the life of the Notes but
there will be a bi-annual adjustment of the reference rate (EURIBOR) which itself will
change in accordance with general market conditions. Accordingly, the market value of
the Floating Rate Notes may be volatile if changes, particularly short term changes, to
market interest rates can only be reflected in the interest rate of the Floating Rate Notes
upon the next periodic adjustment of the reference rate.
Risks related to Notes generally
Modification
The conditions of the Notes contain provisions for calling meetings of Noteholders to
consider matters affecting their interests generally. These provisions permit defined
majorities to bind all Noteholders including Noteholders who did not attend and vote at
the relevant meeting and Noteholders who voted in a manner contrary to the majority.
French Insolvency Law
Under French insolvency law, holders of debt securities are automatically grouped into a
single assembly of holders (the "Assembly") in order to defend their common interests if
an accelerated financial preservation procedure (procédure de sauvegarde financière
accélérée), a preservation (procédure de sauvegarde) or a judicial reorganisation
procedure (procédure de redressement judiciaire) is opened in France with respect to
the Issuer.
The Assembly comprises holders of all debt securities issued by the Issuer (including the
Notes) regardless of their governing law.
The Assembly deliberates on the draft safeguard plan (projet de plan de sauvegarde),
draft accelerated financial safeguard plan (projet de plan de sauvegarde financère
accélérée) or draft judicial reorganisation plan (projet de plan de redressement)
applicable to the Issuer and may further agree to:
-
increase the liabilities (charges) of holders of debt securities (including the
Noteholders) by rescheduling due payments and/or partially or totally writing off
receivables in the form of debt securities;
-
establish an unequal treatment between holders of debt securities (including the
Noteholders) as appropriate under the circumstances; and/or
-
decide to convert debt securities (including the Notes) into securities that give or
may give right to share capital.
Decisions of the Assembly will be taken by a two-third majority (calculated as a
proportion of the debt securities held by the holders attending such Assembly or
represented thereat). No quorum is required to convoke the Assembly.

6

For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions relating to the meetings of the Noteholders
described in "Terms and Conditions of the Notes" set out in this Prospectus will not be
applicable to the extent they are not in compliance with compulsory insolvency law
provisions that apply in these circumstances.
Legality of purchase
Neither the Issuer, the Subscribers nor any of their respective affiliates has or assumes
responsibility for the lawfulness of the acquisition of the Notes by a prospective investor
of the Notes, whether under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or the
jurisdiction in which it operates (if different), or for compliance by that prospective
investor with any law, regulation or regulatory policy applicable to it.
Change of law
The conditions of the Notes are based on the laws of France in effect as at the date of
this Prospectus. No assurance can be given as to the impact of any possible judicial
decision or change to the laws of France or administrative practice after the date of this
Prospectus.
Taxation
Potential purchasers and sellers of the Notes should be aware that they may be required
to pay taxes or other documentary charges or duties in accordance with the laws and
practices of the country where the Notes are transferred or other jurisdictions. In some
jurisdictions, no official statements of the tax authorities or court decisions may be
available for financial instruments such as the Notes. Potential investors cannot rely
upon the tax overview contained in this Prospectus and should ask for their own tax
adviser's advice on their individual taxation with respect to the acquisition, holding, sale
and redemption of the Notes. Only these advisors are in a position to duly consider the
specific situation of the potential investor. This investment consideration has to be read
in connection with the taxation sections of this Prospectus.
EU Savings Directive
Under Directive 2003/48/EC on the taxation of savings income (the "EU Savings
Directive"), Member States of the European Union are required to provide to the tax
authorities of another Member State details of payments of interest (or similar income)
paid by a person within their jurisdiction to an individual resident in that other Member
State or to certain limited types of entities established in that other Member State.
However, for a transitional period, Luxembourg and Austria are instead required (unless
during that period they elect otherwise) to operate a withholding system in relation to
such payments (the ending of such transitional period being dependent upon the
conclusion of certain other agreements relating to information exchange with certain
other countries). A number of non-EU countries and territories, including Switzerland,
have adopted similar measures (a withholding system in the case of Switzerland) (see
"EU Savings Directive" in Section "Taxation").
The European Commission has proposed certain amendments to the EU Savings
Directive, which may, if implemented, amend or broaden the scope of the requirements
described above.

7

If a payment were to be made or collected through a Member State which has opted for
a withholding system and an amount of, or in respect of, tax were to be withheld from
that payment, neither the Issuer nor any Paying Agent nor any other person would be
obliged to pay additional amounts with respect to any Note as a result of the imposition
of such withholding tax. The Issuer will be required to maintain a Paying Agent in a
Member State that will not be obliged to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to the Directive.
