as corrected on 23 June 2015




SGD150,000,000 4.45 per cent. Subordinated Resettable Notes due 17 December 2025
Issue Price: 100 per cent.

This prospectus corrects a manifest error in the Terms and Conditions of the Notes (as defined below). The definition of "Margin" set
out in Condition 2.1 (Definitions) on page 45 is hereby corrected and should read as follows: ""Margin" means 2.16 per cent. per annum,
being the difference between the Initial Rate of Interest and the 5-year SGD Swap Offer Rate appearing on the Bloomberg Page on the
Trade Date."
The SGD150,000,000 4.45 per cent. subordinated resettable notes of BPCE (the "Issuer") maturing on 17 December 2025 (the "Notes") will be
issued on 17 June 2015 (the "Issue Date") and will bear interest at a rate of 4.45 per cent. per annum from (and including) the Issue Date,
payable semi-annually in arrear on 17 June and on 17 December of each year, beginning on 17 December 2015 and ending on 17 December
2020 (the "Reset Date"). Thereafter, the Notes will bear interest at a rate equal to the 5-year SGD Swap Offer Rate plus a margin of 2.16 per
cent. per annum, determined as described herein (the "Reset Rate of Interest"), payable semi-annually in arrear on or about 17 June and on 17
December of each year, commencing on 17 June 2021, as further described in "Terms and Conditions of the Notes ­ Interest" of this prospectus
(the "Prospectus").
Unless previously redeemed or purchased and cancelled, the Notes will be redeemed at par on 17 December 2025 (the "Maturity Date"). The
Issuer may, at its option (subject to approval by the Relevant Regulator), redeem all, but not some only, of the Notes at any time at their
outstanding principal amount plus accrued interest upon the occurrence of a Tax Event or a Capital Event (each as defined in "Terms and
Conditions of the Notes - Interpretation"). In addition, the Issuer may, at its option, subject to approval by the Relevant Regulator, redeem all,
but not some only, of the Notes on 17 December 2020 (the "Call Date") at their outstanding principal amount plus accrued interest.
The Notes will be issued in dematerialised bearer form (au porteur) in the denomination of SGD250,000 each. Title to the Notes will be
evidenced in accordance with Articles L.211-3 et seq. and R.211-1 et seq. of the French Code monétaire et financier by book entries. No
physical document of title (including certificats représentatifs pursuant to Article R.211-7 of the French Code monétaire et financier) will be
issued in respect of the Notes. The Notes will be governed by French law.
The Notes will, upon issue, be inscribed in the books of Euroclear France which shall credit the accounts of the Account Holders. "Account
Holder" shall mean any intermediary institution entitled to hold, directly or indirectly, accounts on behalf of its customers with Euroclear
France, Clearstream Banking, société anonyme and Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V.
