GENERAL INFORMATION 1. Application has been made to the Autorité des marchés financiers ("AMF") to approve this document as a base prospectus. Application will be made in certain circumstances to Euronext Paris for Notes issued under the Programme to be admitted to trading on Euronext Paris. This Base Prospectus received the visa No. 12-240 on 1 June 2012 from the AMF. Euronext Paris is a regulated market for the purposes of the Directive 2004/39/EC. The Final Terms applicable to each Series of Notes admitted to trading on Euronext Paris will be filed with the AMF. If the Final Terms in relation to a Series of Notes do not specify the aggregate nominal amount of Notes admitted to trading on Euronext Paris, the relevant Final Terms will indicate the manner in and date on which such amount will be made public in accordance with Article 212-27 of the general regulations of the AMF. 2. No authorisation procedures are required of Electricité de France by French law for the establishment or update of the Programme. However, to the extent that Notes issued under the Programme may constitute obligations under French law, the issue of such Notes will be authorised in accordance with French law. A resolution of the conseil d'administration dated 12 December 2011 authorises the issue of Notes up to a maximum aggregate amount of Euro 12 billion. 3. Save as disclosed in this Base Prospectus, neither the Issuer nor any of its fully consolidated subsidiaries is or has been involved in any governmental, legal or arbitration proceedings (including any such proceedings which are pending or threatened of which the Issuer is aware), during a period covering at least the previous 12 months which may have, or have had in the recent past, significant effects on the financial position or profitability of the Issuer or any of its fully consolidated subsidiaries. 4. Since the date of the last published audited consolidated financial statements of the Issuer, and save as disclosed in this Base Prospectus, there has been no material adverse change in the prospects of the Issuer and no significant change in the financial or trading position of the Issuer and its fully consolidated subsidiaries. 5. The consolidated financial statements for the years ending 31 December 2010 and 31 December 2011 of the Issuer have been audited by Deloitte & Associés and KPMG SA. The audit reports relating to the 2010 consolidated financial statements draw attention to certain notes to the financial statements relating to the valuation of long-term provisions relating to nuclear electricity production, as well as the changes in accounting principles and the conditions of consolidation of financial information related to Italian entities in respect of the audit report to the 2010 consolidated financial statements. The audit report relating to the 2011 consolidated financial statements draw certain notes to the financial statements relating to the valuation of long-term provisions relating to nuclear electricity production. KPMG SA and Deloitte & Associés are members of the Compagnie Nationale des Commissaires aux Comptes. -173 -
