This Prospectus does not constitute an offer of, or an invitation by or on behalf of the Issuer or the
Joint Lead Managers to subscribe for, or purchase, any Notes.
This Prospectus may only be used for the purpose for which it has been published.
Prospective investors should have regard to the factors described under the section headed "Risk
Factors" or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus. This Prospectus identifies in general
terms certain information that a prospective investor should consider prior to making an investment
in the Notes. However, a prospective investor should conduct its own thorough analysis (including
its own accounting, legal and tax analysis) prior to deciding whether to invest in any Notes as any
evaluation of the suitability for an investor of an investment in the Notes depends upon a
prospective investor's particular financial and other circumstances, as well as on the specific terms
of the Notes and, if it does not have sufficient experience in financial, business and investment
matters to permit it to make such a determination, it should consult its financial adviser on the
suitability of the Notes prior to deciding to make an investment.
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:
(a) 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;
(b) have access to, and knowledge of, appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the context
of its particular financial and other situation, an investment in the Notes and the impact the
Notes wil have on its overall investment portfolio;
(c) have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an investment in
the Notes, including where the currency for principal or interest payments is different from
the potential Investor's Currency (as defined herein);
(d) understand thoroughly the terms of the Notes and be familiar with the behaviour of any
relevant indices and financial markets and with the regulatory framework applicable to the
Issuer; and
(e) 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.
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 (i) the Notes are legal investments for it, (i ) the
Notes can be used as col ateral for various types of borrowing and (i i) other restrictions apply to
its purchase or pledge of any of the Notes. Financial institutions should consult their legal advisors
or the appropriate regulators to determine the appropriate treatment of the Notes under any
applicable risk-based capital or similar rules.
PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA RETAIL INVESTORS ­ The
Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be
offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area.
For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of the following: (i) a
retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (MiFID II); or (i ) a
customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 where that customer would not qualify as
a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently no key
3



information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (the PRIIPs Regulation) for
offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the European
Economic Area has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making
them available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area may be unlawful under the
PRIIPs Regulation.
PROHIBITION OF SALES TO UNITED KINGDOM RETAIL INVESTORS ­ The Notes are not
intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or
otherwise made available to any retail investor in the United Kingdom (UK). For these purposes,
a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of the following: (i) a retail client, as defined
in point (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 2017/565 as it forms part of UK domestic law by
virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (EUWA); or (i ) a customer within the meaning
of the provisions of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (FSMA) and any rules or
regulations made under the FSMA to implement Directive (EU) 2016/97 where that customer
would not qualify as a professional client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU)
No 600/2014 as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the EUWA. Consequently no key
information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 as it forms part of UK domestic
law by virtue of the EUWA (the UK PRIIPs Regulation) for offering or selling the Notes or
otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore
offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK
may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.
MIFID II PRODUCT GOVERNANCE / PROFESSIONAL INVESTORS AND ELIGIBLE
COUNTERPARTIES ONLY TARGET MARKET ­ Solely for the purposes of each manufacturer's
product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the Notes has led to the
conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Notes is eligible counterparties and professional
clients only, each as defined in MiFID II; and (i ) all channels for distribution of the Notes to eligible
counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling
or recommending the Notes (a distributor) should take into consideration the manufacturers'
target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking
its own target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the
manufacturers' target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.
SINGAPORE SFA PRODUCT CLASSIFICATION ­ Solely for the purposes of its obligations
pursuant to sections 309B(1)(a) and 309B(1)(c) of the Securities and Futures Act 2001 (2020
Revised Edition) of Singapore, as modified or amended from time to time (the SFA), the Issuer
has determined, and hereby notifies all relevant persons (as defined in Section 309A(1) of the
SFA), that the Notes are "prescribed capital markets products" (as defined in the Securities and
Futures (Capital Markets Products) Regulations 2018 of Singapore) and "Excluded Investment
Products" (as defined in MAS Notice SFA 04-N12: Notice on the Sale of Investment Products and
MAS Notice FAA-N16: Notice on Recommendations on Investment Products).
IN CONNECTION WITH THE ISSUE OF THE NOTES, CRÉDIT AGRICOLE CORPORATE AND
INVESTMENT BANK (THE STABILISING MANAGER) (OR A PERSON ACTING ON BEHALF
OF ANY STABILISING MANAGER) MAY OVER-ALLOT NOTES OR EFFECT TRANSACTIONS
WITH A VIEW TO SUPPORTING THE MARKET PRICE OF THE NOTES AT A LEVEL HIGHER
THAN THAT WHICH MIGHT OTHERWISE PREVAIL. HOWEVER, THERE IS NO ASSURANCE
THAT THE STABILISING MANAGER (OR A PERSON ACTING ON BEHALF OF A STABILISING
MANAGER) WILL UNDERTAKE STABILISATION ACTION. ANY STABILISATION ACTION MAY
BEGIN ON OR AFTER THE DATE ON WHICH ADEQUATE PUBLIC DISCLOSURE OF THE
TERMS OF THE OFFER OF THE NOTES IS MADE AND, IF BEGUN, MAY BE ENDED AT ANY
TIME, BUT IT MUST END NO LATER THAN THE EARLIER OF 30 CALENDAR DAYS AFTER
4



THE ISSUE DATE OF THE NOTES AND 60 CALENDAR DAYS AFTER THE DATE OF THE
ALLOTMENT OF THE NOTES. ANY STABILISATION ACTION OR OVER-ALLOTMENT MUST
BE CONDUCTED BY THE STABILISING MANAGER (OR A PERSON ACTING ON BEHALF OF
ANY STABILISING MANAGER) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS AND RULES.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Prospectus (and the information incorporated by reference therein) may include statements
with respect to future events, trends, plans, expectations or objectives and other forward-looking
statements relating to the Group's future business, financial condition, results of operations,
performance, and strategy. Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact and
may contain the terms "may", "will", "should", "continue", "aims", "estimates", "projects", "believes",
"intends", "expects", "plans", "seeks" or "anticipates", or words of similar meaning. Such
statements are based on Management's current views and assumptions and, by nature, involve
known and unknown risks and uncertainties; therefore, undue reliance should not be placed on
them. Actual financial condition, results of operations, performance or events may differ materially
from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements, due to a number of factors
including, without limitation, general economic and political conditions and competitive situation;
future financial market performance and conditions, including fluctuations in exchange and interest
rates; frequency and severity of insured or reinsured loss events, and increases in loss expenses;
mortality and morbidity levels and trends; persistency levels; changes in laws, regulations and
standards; the impact of acquisitions and disposal, including related integration issues, and
reorganization measures; and general competitive factors, in each case on a local, regional,
national and/or global basis. Many of these factors may be more likely to occur, or more
pronounced, as a result of catastrophic events, including weather-related catastrophic events,
pandemics events or terrorist-related incidents. Please refer to Part 5 ­ "Risk factors and risk
management" of the 2021 Universal Registration Document for a description of certain important
factors, risks and uncertainties that may affect AXA's business and/or results of operations. AXA
undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any of these forward-looking statements,
whether to reflect new information, future events or circumstances or otherwise, except as
required by applicable laws and regulations.
This Prospectus refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures, or alternative performance
measures (APMs), used by Management in analyzing the Group's operating trends, financial
performance and financial position and providing investors with additional information that
Management believes to be useful and relevant regarding the Group's results. These non-GAAP
financial measures generally have no standardized meaning and therefore may not be comparable
to similarly labelled measures used by other companies. As a result, none of these non-GAAP
financial measures should be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the Group's
Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with IFRS and incorporated by
reference herein. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Group are defined in the
Glossary set forth on pages 501 to 505 of the 2021 Universal Registration Document and of the
2021 French Universal Registration Document, on pages 57 to 64 of the 2022 Half-Year Financial
Report and on pages 60 to 68 of the 2022 French Half-Year Financial Report.
