We will issue the notes as a master global note registered in the name of DTC, or its nominee. The sale of the notes will
settle in immediately available funds through DTC. You will not be permitted to withdraw the notes from DTC except in the limited
situations described in the accompanying prospectus under "Legal Ownership and Book-Entry Issuance -- What Is a Global

Pricing Supplement No. 33 dated May 12, 2017
Day Count Convention
As further described under "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer ­ Calculations of Interest on Debt Securities ­
Interest Rates and Interest" in the accompanying prospectus, for each interest period the amount of accrued interest will be
calculated by multiplying the principal amount of the note by an accrued interest factor for the interest period. The accrued interest
factor will be determined by multiplying the per annum interest rate by a factor resulting from the 30/360 (ISDA) day count
convention. The factor is the number of days in the interest period in respect of which payment is being made divided by 360,
calculated on a formula basis as follows:

[360 × (Y2 ­ Y1)] + [30 × (M2 ­ M1)] + (D2 ­D 1)
Day Count Fraction =





360

w he re :
"Y1 " is the year, expressed as a number, in which the first day of the interest period falls;
"Y2" is the year, expressed as a number, in which the day immediately following the last day included in the interest period
falls;
"M1" is the calendar month, expressed as a number, in which the first day of the interest period falls;
"M2" is the calendar month, expressed as a number, in which the day immediately following the last day included in the
interest period falls;
"D1" is the first calendar day, expressed as a number, of the interest period, unless such number would be 31, in which
case D1 will be 30; and
"D2" is the calendar day, expressed as a number, immediately following the last day included in the interest period, unless
such number would be 31 and D1 is greater than 29, in which case D2 will be 30.
When We Can Redeem the Notes
We will be permitted to redeem the notes at our option before their stated maturity, as described below. The notes will not be
entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund ­ that is, we will not deposit money on a regular basis into any separate custodial account
to repay your note. In addition, you will not be entitled to require us to buy your note from you before its stated maturity.
We will have the right to redeem the notes at our option, in whole but not in part, on each February 19, May 19, August 19
and November 19 on or after May 19, 2018, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount plus accrued
and unpaid interest to but excluding the redemption date. We will provide not less than five business days' prior notice in the
manner described under "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer -- Notices" in the attached prospectus. If the redemption
notice is given and funds deposited as required, then interest will cease to accrue on and after the redemption date on the notes. If
any redemption date is not a business day, we will pay the redemption price on the next business day without any interest or other
payment due to the delay.

Table of Contents
What are the Tax Consequences of the Notes
You should carefully consider, among other things, the matters set forth under "United States Taxation" in the accompanying
prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. The following discussion summarizes certain of the material U.S.
federal income tax consequences of the purchase, beneficial ownership, and disposition of each of the notes. This summary
supplements the section "United States Taxation" in the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus
and is subject to the limitations and exceptions set forth therein.
As of the original issue date, the notes should not be treated as issued with "original issue discount" ("OID") despite the fact
that the interest rate on the notes is scheduled to step-up over the term of the notes because Treasury regulations generally deem
an issuer to exercise a call option in a manner that minimizes the yield on the debt instrument for purposes of determining whether
a debt instrument is issued with OID. The yield on the notes would be minimized if we call the notes immediately before the
increase in the interest rate on May 19, 2020 and therefore the notes should be treated as maturing on such date for OID
purposes. This assumption is made solely for purposes of determining whether the notes are issued with OID for U.S. federal
income tax purposes, and is not an indication of our intention to call or not to call the notes at any time. If we do not call the notes
prior to the increase in the interest rate then, solely for OID purposes, the notes will be deemed to be reissued at their adjusted
issue price on May 19, 2020. This deemed issuance should not give rise to taxable gain or loss to holders. The same analysis
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/886982/000119312517172309/d393196d424b2.htm[5/17/2017 4:12:39 PM]


Pricing Supplement No. 33 dated May 12, 2017
would apply to the increase in the interest rate on May 19, 2022. If the notes are not called on the interest payment date occurring
on May 19, 2022 then, because the period between the interest payment date on May 19, 2022, and the stated maturity date of
the notes is one year or less, the notes, upon their deemed reissuance on May 19, 2022, could be treated as short-term debt
securities for OID purposes (but not for purposes of determining the holding period of your notes). For a discussion of the U.S.
federal income tax consequences to a U.S. holder of owning short-term debt securities, please review the section entitled "United
States Taxation ­ Taxation of Debt Securities ­ United States Holders ­ Short-Term Debt Securities" in the accompanying
prospectus.
Under this approach, and subject to the discussion above regarding short-term debt securities, interest on a note will be
taxable to a U.S. holder as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with the U.S. holder's
normal method of accounting for tax purposes (regardless of whether we call the notes).
Upon the disposition of a note by sale, exchange, redemption or retirement (i.e., if we exercise our right to call the notes or
otherwise) or other disposition, a U.S. holder will generally recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between
(i) the amount realized on the disposition (other than amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, which would be treated
as such) and (ii) the U.S. holder's adjusted tax basis in the note. A U.S. holder's adjusted tax basis in a note generally will equal
the cost of the note (net of accrued interest) to the U.S. holder. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to significant limitations.
Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) Withholding. Pursuant to Treasury regulations, Foreign Account Tax
Compliance Act (FATCA) withholding (as described in "United States Taxation--Taxation of Debt Securities--Foreign Account Tax
Compliance Act (FATCA) Withholding" in the accompanying prospectus) will generally apply to obligations that are issued on or
after July 1, 2014; therefore, the notes will generally be subject to FATCA withholding. However, according to published guidance,
the withholding tax described above will not apply to payments of gross proceeds from the sale, exchange, redemption or other
disposition of the notes made before January 1, 2019.

Notes sold by the underwriters to the public will initially be offered at the initial price to public set forth on the cover of this
pricing supplement. The underwriters intend to purchase the notes from The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. at a purchase price equal
to the initial price to public less a discount of 1.625% of the principal amount of the notes. Any notes sold by the underwriters to
securities dealers may be sold at a discount from the initial price to public of up to 1.250% of the principal amount of the notes. If
all of the offered notes are not sold at the initial price to public, the underwriters may change the offering price and the other selling
terms.
Please note that the information about the initial price to public and net proceeds to The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. on the
front cover page relates only to the initial sale of the notes. If you have purchased a note in a market-making transaction by
Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC or any other affiliate of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. after the initial sale, information about the price
and date of sale to you will be provided in a separate confirmation of sale.
Each underwriter has represented and agreed that it will not offer or sell the notes in the United States or to United States
persons except if such offers or sales are made by or through FINRA member broker-dealers registered with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission.
The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. estimates that its share of the total offering expenses, excluding underwriting discounts and
commissions, whether paid to Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC or any other underwriter, will be approximately
$10,000.

Pricing Supplement No. 33 dated May 12, 2017
We will deliver the notes against payment therefor in New York, New York on May 19, 2017, which is the fifth scheduled
business day following the date of this pricing supplement and of the pricing of the notes. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to
any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on any date prior to three business
days before delivery will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes are initially expected to settle in five business days (T + 5),
to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
The notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. has been advised
by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Incapital LLC that they may make a market in the notes. Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and
Incapital LLC are not obligated to do so and may discontinue market-making at any time without notice. No assurance can be given
as to the liquidity of the trading market for the notes.
The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. has agreed to indemnify the several underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act of 1933.
Certain of the underwriters and their affiliates have in the past provided, and may in the future from time to time provide,
investment banking and general financing and banking services to The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and its affiliates, for which they
have in the past received, and may in the future receive, customary fees. The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and its affiliates have in
the past provided, and may in the future from time to time provide, similar services to the underwriters and their affiliates on
customary terms and for customary fees. Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, one of the underwriters, is an affiliate of The Goldman Sachs
Group, Inc. Please see "Plan of Distribution--Conflicts of Interest" on page 124 of the accompanying prospectus.
