6. Terms and Conditions of the Public Offer

Applicable. METEOR ASSET MANAGEMENT LIMITED (the "Financial Intermediary") will manage a plan (the "Plan") which will be offered to the public in the Non-exempt Offer Jurisdiction in accordance with the arrangements listed below. The Financial Intermediary has selected the Certificates as the securities into which the Financial Intermediary will invest on behalf of investors in the Plan. The proceeds invested by investors in the Plan will be used by the Financial Intermediary to purchase the Certificates. It is understood that the performance of the Plan will be related to the performance of the Certificates throughout their term. Therefore, the amounts payable by the Financial Intermediary on the redemption of the Plan are linked to the amounts paid by the Issuer pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Certificates.

Offer Price: A prospective investor in the Plan should contact the Financial Intermediary for details of the Offer Price.

If any commissions or fees discount relating to the issue and sale of the Certificates have been paid or are payable by the Manager to any intermediary then such intermediary may be obliged to fully disclose to its clients the existence, nature and amount of any such commissions or fees (including, if applicable, by way of discount) as required in accordance with laws and regulations applicable to such intermediary, including any legislation regulation and/or rule implementing the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (2004/39/EC) ("MiFID"), or as otherwise may apply in any non-EEA jurisdictions. Potential investors in these Certificates intending to purchase Certificates through an intermediary (including by way of introducing broker) should request details of any such commission or fee payment from such intermediary before making any purchase thereof.

Conditions to which the offer is subject: Offers of the Plan in its current form by the Financial Intermediary are conditional on the issue of the Certificates by the Issuer and subject to the contractual arrangements in place between the Manager and Financial Intermediary.

The Issuer will not be a party to any such arrangements with prospective investors (other than the Manager) in connection with the offer or sale of the Certificates or beneficial interests in

the Certificates through the Plan and accordingly the Base Prospectus and these Final Terms will not contain such information and an Investor must obtain such information from the Financial Intermediary.

Any offer of the Plan by the Financial Intermediary will be made in its own name and on its own behalf and not as an agent of the Issuer, the Guarantor or the Manager and only the Financial Intermediary will be liable for the offer in the Non-exempt Offer Jurisdiction. None of the Issuer, Guarantor or Manager accepts any liability for the offer or sale by the Financial Intermediary of an investment in the Plan to investors in the Non-exempt Offer Jurisdiction.

Description of the application process: A prospective investor in the Plan should, prior to the end of the Offer Period (as defined above), contact the Financial Intermediary for details of the application process to purchase an interest in the Plan during the Offer Period. A prospective investor in the Plan will invest in accordance with the arrangements existing between the Financial Intermediary and its customers relating to a subscription of products generally. Prospective investors will not enter into any contractual arrangements directly with the Issuer, Guarantor or the Manager related to the subscription for the Certificates. If an investor in any jurisdiction other than the Non-exempt Offer Jurisdiction wishes to purchase Certificates or to make an investment in the Plan, such investor should (a) be aware that sales in the relevant jurisdiction may not be permitted; and (b) contact its financial advisor, bank or financial intermediary for more information.

These Final Terms may only be used in connection with and within the terms of this offer. The Final Terms do not authorise, and may not be used by the Financial Intermediary or any other party in connection with, the subsequent offer or sale of any Certificates outside the terms of the offer or the Offer Period.

With the exception of the Non-exempt Offer Jurisdiction no action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction by the Issuer, Guarantor or the

	Manager that would permit a public offering of the Certificates, or possession or distribution of any offering material in connection with the issue of the Certificates in any country or jurisdiction where action for that purposes is required. The Financial Intermediary must comply with all applicable laws and regulations in the Non exempt Offer Jurisdiction in connection with the offer and sale of Certificates at its own expense.
Details of the minimum and/or maximum amount of application:	A prospective investor in the Plan should contact the Financial Intermediary for details of any minimum and/or maximum amount of the individual applications for an interest in the Plan.

		Macroeconomic and market conditions affect BNPP's results. The nature of BNPP's business makes it particularly sensitive to macroeconomic and market conditions in Europe, which have been at times challenging and

Element	Title
		volatile in recent years.
		In 2015, the global economic activity remained sluggish. Activity slowed down in emerging countries, while a modest recovery continued in developed countries. The global outlook is still impacted by three major transitions: the slowing economic growth in China, the fall in prices of energy and other commodities, and an initial tightening of US monetary policy in a context of resilient internal recovery, while the central banks of several major developed countries are continuing to ease their monetary policies. For 2016, the IMF is forecasting the progressive recovery of global economic activity but with low growth prospects on the medium term in developed and emerging countries.
		In that context, two risks can be identified:
		Financial instability due to the vulnerability of emerging countries
		While the exposure of the BNP Paribas Group in emerging countries is limited, the vulnerability of these economies may generate disruptions in the global financial system that could affect the BNP Paribas Group and potentially alter its results.
		In numerous emerging economies, an increase in foreign currency commitments was observed in 2015, while the levels of indebtedness (both in foreign and local currencies) are already high. Moreover, the prospects of a progressive hike in key rates in the United States (first rate increase decided by the Federal Reserve in December 2015), as well as tightened financial volatility linked to the concerns regarding growth in emerging countries, have contributed to the stiffening of external financial conditions, capital outflows, further currency depreciations in numerous emerging countries and an increase in risks for banks. This could lead to the downgrading of sovereign ratings.
		Given the possible standardisation of risk premiums, there is a risk of global market disruptions (rise in risk premiums, erosion of confidence, decline in growth, postponement or slowdown in the harmonisation of monetary policies, drop in market liquidity, problem with the valuation of assets, shrinking of the credit offering, and chaotic de-leveraging) that would affect all banking institutions.
		Systemic risks related to economic conditions and market liquidity
		The continuation of a situation with exceptionally low interest rates could promote excessive risk-taking by certain financial players: increase in the maturity of loans and assets held, less stringent loan granting policies, increase in leverage financing.
		Some players (insurance companies, pension funds, asset managers, etc.) entail an increasingly systemic dimension and in the event of market turbulence (linked for instance to a sudden rise in interest rates and/or a

Element	Title
		sharp price correction) they may decide to unwind large positions in an environment of relatively weak market liquidity.
		Such liquidity pressure could be exacerbated by the recent increase in the volume of assets under management placed with structures investing in illiquid assets.
		Laws and regulations applicable to financial institutions.
		Recent and future changes in the laws and regulations applicable to financial institutions may have a significant impact on BNPP. Measures that were recently adopted or which are (or whose application measures are) still in draft format, that have or are likely to have an impact on the Bank notably include:
		- the structural reforms comprising the French banking law of 26 July 2013 requiring that banks create subsidiaries for or segregate "speculative" proprietary operations from their traditional retail banking activities, the "Volcker rule" in the US which restricts proprietary transactions, sponsorship and investment in private equity funds and hedge funds by US and foreign banks, and expected potential changes in Europe;
		- regulations governing capital: CRD IV/CRR, the international standard for total loss-absorbing capacity ("TLAC") and BNPP's designation as a financial institution that is of systemic importance by the Financial Stability Board;
		- the European Single Supervisory Mechanism ordinance of 6 November 2014;
		- the Directive of 16 April 2014 related to deposit guarantee schemes and its delegation and implementing decrees, the Directive of 15 May 2014 establishing a Bank Recovery and Resolution framework;
		- the Single Resolution Mechanism establishing the Single Resolution Council and the Single Resolution Fund;
		- the Final Rule by the US Federal Reserve imposing tighter prudential rules on the US transactions of large foreign banks, notably the obligation to create a separate intermediary holding company in the US (capitalised and subject to regulation) to house their US subsidiaries;
		- the new rules for the regulation of over-the-counter derivative activities pursuant to Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, notably margin requirements for uncleared derivative products and the derivatives of securities traded by swap dealers, major swap participants, security-based swap dealers and major security-based swap participants, and the

Element	Title
		transactions;	rules of the US Securities and Exchange Commission which require the registration of banks and major swap participants active on derivatives markets and transparency and reporting on derivative
		-	the new MiFID and MiFIR, and European regulations governing the clearing of certain over-the-counter derivative products by centralised counterparties and the disclosure of securities financing transactions to centralised bodies.
		Cyber risk
		plans after a cyber incident.	In recent years, financial institutions have been impacted by a number of cyber incidents, notably involving large-scale alterations of data which compromise the quality of financial information. This risk remains today and BNPP, like other banks, has taken measures to implement systems to deal with cyber attacks that could destroy or damage data and critical systems and hamper the smooth running of its operations. Moreover, the regulatory and supervisory authorities are taking initiatives to promote the exchange of information on cyber security and cyber criminality in order to improve the security of technological infrastructures and establish effective recovery

Section D – Risks

Element	Title
D.2	Key risks regarding the Issuer and the Guarantor	Guarantor	Prospective purchasers of the Securities should be experienced with respect to options and options transactions and should understand the risks of transactions involving the Securities. An investment in the Securities presents certain risks that should be taken into account before any investment decision is made. Certain risks may affect the Issuer's ability to fulfil its obligations under the Securities or the Guarantor's ability to perform its obligations under the Guarantee, some of which are beyond its control. In particular, the Issuer and the Guarantor, together with the BNPP Group, are exposed to the risks associated with its activities, as described below:
			As defined in BNPP's 2015 Registration Document and Annual Financial Report, eleven main categories of risk are inherent in BNPP's activities:
		(1)	Credit Risk - Credit risk is the potential that a bank borrower or counterparty will fail to meet its obligations in accordance with agreed terms. The probability of default and the expected recovery on the loan or receivable in the event of default are key components of the credit quality assessment;
		(2)	Counterparty Credit Risk - Counterparty credit risk is the credit risk embedded in payment or transactions between counterparties. Those transactions include bilateral contracts such as over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives contracts which potentially expose the Bank to the risk of counterparty default, as well as contracts settled through clearing houses. The amount of this risk may vary over time in line with changing market parameters which then impacts the replacement value of the relevant transactions or portfolio;
		(3)	Securitisation - Securitisation means a transaction or scheme, whereby the credit risk associated with an exposure or pool of exposures is tranched, having the following characteristics:
			• payments made in the transaction or scheme are dependent upon the performance of the exposure or pool of exposures;
			• the subordination of tranches determines the distribution of losses during the life of the risk transfer.
			Any commitment (including derivatives and liquidity lines) granted to a securitisation operation must be treated as a securitisation exposure. Most of these commitments are held in the prudential banking book;
		(4)	Market Risk - Market risk is the risk of incurring a loss of value due to adverse trends in market prices or parameters, whether directly

Element	Title
			observable or not.
			Observable market parameters include, but are not limited to, exchange rates, prices of securities and commodities (whether listed or obtained by reference to a similar asset), prices of derivatives, and other parameters that can be directly inferred from them, such as interest rates, credit spreads, volatilities and implied correlations or other similar parameters.
			Non-observable factors are those based on working assumptions such as parameters contained in models or based on statistical or economic analyses, non-ascertainable in the market.
			In fixed income trading books, credit instruments are valued on the basis of bond yields and credit spreads, which represent market parameters in the same way as interest rates or foreign exchange rates. The credit risk arising on the issuer of the debt instrument is therefore a component of market risk known as issuer risk.
			Liquidity is an important component of market risk. In times of limited or no liquidity, instruments or goods may not be tradable or may not be tradable at their estimated value. This may arise, for example, due to low transaction volumes, legal restrictions or a strong imbalance between demand and supply for certain assets.
			The market risk related to banking activities encompasses the risk of loss on equity holdings on the one hand, and the interest rate and foreign exchange risks stemming from banking intermediation activities on the other hand;
		(5)	Operational Risk - Operational risk is the risk of incurring a loss due to inadequate or failed internal processes, or due to external events, whether deliberate, accidental or natural occurrences. Management of operational risk is based on an analysis of the "cause – event – effect" chain.
			Internal processes giving rise to operational risk may involve employees and/or IT systems. External events include, but are not limited to floods, fire, earthquakes and terrorist attacks. Credit or market events such as default or fluctuations in value do not fall within the scope of operational risk.
			Operational risk encompasses fraud, human resources risks, legal risks, non-compliance risks, tax risks, information system risks, conduct risks (risks related to the provision of inappropriate financial services), risk related to failures in operating processes, including loan procedures or model risks, as well as any potential financial implications resulting from the management of reputation risks;
		(6)	Compliance and Reputation Risk - Compliance risk as defined in

Element	Title
			French regulations as the risk of legal, administrative or disciplinary sanctions, of significant financial loss or reputational damage that a bank may suffer as a result of failure to comply with national or European laws and regulations, codes of conduct and standards of good practice applicable to banking and financial activities, or instructions given by an executive body, particularly in application of guidelines issued by a supervisory body.
			By definition, this risk is a sub-category of operational risk. However, as certain implications of compliance risk involve more than a purely financial loss and may actually damage the institution's reputation, the Bank treats compliance risk separately.
			Reputation risk is the risk of damaging the trust placed in a corporation by its customers, counterparties, suppliers, employees, shareholders, supervisors and any other stakeholder whose trust is an essential condition for the corporation to carry out its day-to-day operations.
			Reputation risk is primarily contingent on all the other risks borne by the Bank;
		(7)	Concentration Risk - Concentration risk and its corollary, diversification effects, are embedded within each risk, especially for credit, market and operational risks using the correlation parameters taken into account by the corresponding risk models.
			It is assessed at consolidated Group level and at financial conglomerate level;
		(8)	Banking Book Interest Rate Risk - Banking book interest rate risk is the risk of incurring losses as a result of mismatches in interest rates, maturities and nature between assets and liabilities. For banking activities, this risk arises in non-trading portfolios and primarily relates to global interest rate risk;
		(9)	Strategic and Business Risks - Strategic risk is the risk that the Bank's share price may fall because of its strategic decisions.
			Business risk is the risk of incurring an operating loss due to a change in the economic environment leading to a decline in revenue coupled with insufficient cost-elasticity.
			These two types of risk are monitored by the Board of Directors;
		(10)	Liquidity Risk - In accordance with regulations, the liquidity risk is defined as the risk that a bank will be unable to honour its commitments or unwind or settle a position due to the situation on the market or idiosyncratic factors, within a given time frame and at a reasonable price or cost; and

Element	Title
		(11)	Insurance Subscription Risk - Insurance subscription risk corresponds to the risk of a financial loss caused by an adverse trend in insurance claims. Depending on the type of insurance business (life, personal risk or annuities), this risk may be statistical, macroeconomic or behavioural, or may be related to public health issues or natural disasters. It is not the main risk factor arising in the life insurance business, where financial risks are predominant.
		(a)	Difficult market and economic conditions have had and may continue to have a material adverse effect on the operating environment for financial institutions and hence on BNPP's financial condition, results of operations and cost of risk.
		(b)	The United Kingdom's referendum to leave the European Union may lead to significant uncertainty, volatility and disruption in European and broader financial and economic markets and hence may adversely affect BNPP's operating environment.
		(c)	Due to the geographic scope of its activities, BNPP may be vulnerable to country or regional-specific political, macroeconomic and financial environments or circumstances.
		(d)	BNPP's access to and cost of funding could be adversely affected by a resurgence of financial crises, worsening economic conditions, rating downgrades, increases in credit spreads or other factors.
		(e)	Significant interest rate changes could adversely affect BNPP's revenues or profitability.
		(f)	The prolonged low interest rate environment carries inherent systemic risks, and an exit from such environment also carries risks.
		(g)	The soundness and conduct of other financial institutions and market participants could adversely affect BNPP.
		(h)	BNPP may incur significant losses on its trading and investment activities due to market fluctuations and volatility.
		(i)	BNPP may generate lower revenues from brokerage and other commission and fee-based businesses during market downturns.
		(j)	Protracted market declines can reduce liquidity in the markets, making it harder to sell assets and possibly leading to material losses.
		(k)	Laws and regulations adopted in recent years, particularly in response to the global financial crisis may materially impact BNPP and the financial and economic environment in which it operates.
		(l)	BNPP is subject to extensive and evolving regulatory regimes in the

Element	Title
			jurisdictions in which it operates.
		(m)	BNPP may incur substantial fines and other administrative and criminal penalties for non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and may also incur losses in related (or unrelated) litigation with private parties.

	(n)	There are risks related to the implementation of BNPP's strategic plans.
	(o)	BNPP may experience difficulties integrating acquired companies and may be unable to realize the benefits expected from its acquisitions.
	(p)	Intense competition by banking and non-banking operators could adversely affect BNPP's revenues and profitability.
	(q)	A substantial increase in new provisions or a shortfall in the level of previously recorded provisions could adversely affect BNPP's results of operations and financial condition.
	(r)	BNPP's risk management policies, procedures and methods may leave it exposed to unidentified or unanticipated risks, which could lead to material losses.
	(s)	BNPP's hedging strategies may not prevent losses.
	(t)	Adjustments to the carrying value of BNPP's securities and derivatives portfolios and BNPP's own debt could have an impact on its net income and shareholders' equity.
	(u)	The expected changes in accounting principles relating to financial instruments may have an impact on BNPP's balance sheet and regulatory capital ratios and result in additional costs.
	(v)	BNPP's competitive position could be harmed if its reputation is damaged.
	(w)	An interruption in or a breach of BNPP's information systems may result in material losses of client or customer information, damage to BNPP's reputation and lead to financial losses.
	(x)	Unforeseen external events may disrupt BNPP's operations and cause substantial losses and additional costs.
	Issuer
	Group.	The main risks described above in relation to BNPP also represent the main risks for BNPP B.V., either as an individual entity or a company in the BNPP
		Dependency Risk
	Group entities.	BNPP B.V. is an operating company. The assets of BNPP B.V. consist of the obligations of other BNPP Group entities. The ability of BNPP B.V. to meet its own obligations will depend on the ability of other BNPP Group entities to fulfil their obligations. In respect of securities it issues, the ability of BNPP B.V. to meet its obligations under such securities depends on the receipt by it of payments under certain hedging agreements that it enters with other BNPP

		Market Risk
		BNPP B.V. takes on exposure to market risks arising from positions in interest rates, currency exchange rates, commodities and equity products, all of which are exposed to general and specific market movements. However, these risks are hedged by option and swap agreements and therefore these risks are mitigated in principle.
		Credit Risk
		BNPP B.V. has significant concentration of credit risks as all OTC contracts are acquired from its parent company and other BNPP Group entities. Taking into consideration the objective and activities of BNPP B.V. and the fact that its parent company is under supervision of the European Central Bank and the Autorité de Contrôle Prudentiel et de Résolution management considers these risks as acceptable.

D.3	Key risks regarding the Securities	In addition to the risks (including the risk of default) that may affect the Issuer's ability to fulfil its obligations under the Securities or the Guarantor's ability to perform its obligations under the Guarantor, there are certain factors which are material for the purposes of assessing the market risks associated with Securities issued under the Base Prospectus, including:
		Market Risks
		Securities (other than Secured Securities) are unsecured obligations;
		exposure to the Underlying Reference in many cases will be achieved by the relevant Issuer entering into hedging arrangements and, in respect of Securities linked to an Underlying Reference, potential investors are exposed to the performance of these hedging arrangements and events that may affect the hedging arrangements and consequently the occurrence of any of these events may affect the value of the Securities;
		Holder Risks
		the Securities may have a minimum trading amount and if, following the transfer of any Securities, a Holder holds fewer Securities than the specified minimum trading amount, such Holder will not be permitted to transfer their remaining Securities prior to redemption without first purchasing enough additional Securities in order to hold the minimum trading amount;

	Issuer/Guarantor Risks
	a reduction in the rating, if any, accorded to outstanding debt securities of the Issuer or Guarantor (if applicable) by a credit rating agency could result in a reduction in the trading value of the Securities;
	certain conflicts of interest may arise (see Element E.4 below);
	Legal Risks
	the occurrence of an additional disruption event or optional additional disruption event may lead to an adjustment to the Securities early redemption or may result in the amount payable on scheduled redemption being different from the amount expected to be paid at scheduled redemption and consequently the occurrence of an additional disruption event and/or optional additional disruption event may have an adverse effect on the value or liquidity of the Securities;
	in certain circumstances settlement may be postponed or payments made in USD if the Settlement Currency specified in the applicable Final Terms is not freely transferable, convertible or deliverable;
	expenses and taxation may be payable in respect of the Securities;
	the Securities may be redeemed in the case of illegality or impracticability and such cancellation or redemption may result in an investor not realising a return on an investment in the Securities;
	Secondary Market Risks
	the only means through which a Holder can realise value from the Security prior to its Redemption Date is to sell it at its then market price in an available secondary market and that there may be no secondary market for the Securities (which could mean that an investor has to exercise or wait until redemption of the Securities to realise a greater value than its trading value);
	an active secondary market may never be established or may be illiquid and this may adversely affect the value at which an investor may sell its Securities (investors may suffer a partial or total loss of the amount of their investment)
	Risks relating to Underlying Reference Asset(s)
	In addition, there are specific risks in relation to Securities which are linked to an Underlying Reference (including Hybrid Securities) and an investment in such Securities will entail significant risks not associated with an investment in a conventional debt security. Risk factors in relation to Underlying Reference linked Securities include:

exposure to a preference share and preference share issuer, that investors risk losing all or a part of their investment if the value of the preference shares does not move in the anticipated direction, that the Preference Share

		Certificates may be early redeemed in certain circumstances
D.6	Risk warning	See Element D.3 above.
		In the event of the insolvency of the Issuer or if it is otherwise unable or unwilling to repay the Securities when repayment falls due, an investor may lose all or part of his investment in the Securities.
		If the Guarantor is unable or unwilling to meet its obligations under the Guarantee when due, an investor may lose all or part of his investment in the Securities.
		In addition, investors may lose all or part of their investment in the Securities as a result of the terms and conditions of the Securities.
