OVERVIEW
The following information concerning GE Capital and the Debentures summarizes, and should be read in

The Offering
Issuer.......................................................
General Electric Capital Corporation ("GE Capital"), a corporation
incorporated in the state of Delaware, U.S.A. GE Capital offers
diversified financing and services primarily in North America,
Europe and Asia. GE Capital operates in four operating segments of
General Electric Company: GE Commercial Finance, GE Money,
GE Industrial and GE Infrastructure.
Securities Offered ..................................
The 1,500,000,000 5.500% Fixed to Floating Rate EUR
Subordinated Debentures due 2067 (the "Euro Debentures") will
bear interest at an annual rate of 5.500% up to but excluding
September 15, 2017 (the "Fixed Rate Period") and thereafter (the
"Floating Rate Period") at a floating rate equal to an annual rate of
3-month EURIBOR plus 2.000% (200 basis points).
The £600,000,000 6.500% Fixed to Floating Rate GBP Subordinated

excluding September 15, 2017 and thereafter during the Floating Rate
Period at a floating rate equal to an annual rate of 3-month Sterling
LIBOR plus 2.000% (200 basis points).
The Euro Debentures and the Sterling Debentures each constitute a
separate series of debt securities under the Indenture described herein.
The Euro Debentures together with the Sterling Debentures are herein
referred to as the "Debentures".
Issue Date ...............................................
September 5, 2007.
Maturity Date..........................................
September 15, 2067, subject to earlier redemption.
Trustee ....................................................
The Bank of New York (successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.) is
the trustee (the "Trustee") for the Debentures pursuant to an
Indenture for Subordinated Debentures (the "Indenture"), entered
into with GE Capital as of September 1, 2006, and supplemental
indenture for the Debentures (the "Supplemental Indenture"), to be
entered into with GE Capital as of September 5, 2007.
Interest Payments....................................
In each case subject to deferral as described below under "-- Option
to Defer Interest Payments", interest on the Debentures will accrue
from and including the Issue Date and will be payable, with respect to
(i) the Euro Debentures during the Fixed Rate Period, annually in
arrears on September 15 of each year (or the next succeeding
Business Day if not a Business Day, without any interest or other
payment in respect of such delay), commencing September 15, 2008
until and including September 15, 2017, and (ii) the Sterling
Debentures during the Fixed Rate Period, semi-annually in arrears, in
equal installments, on March 15 and September 15 of each year (or
the next succeeding Business Day if not a Business Day, without any
interest or other payment in respect of such delay), commencing
March 15, 2008 until and including September 15, 2017. There will

1



be a long first Interest Period from and including the Issue Date to but
excluding (i) September 15, 2008 for the Euro Debentures and (ii)
March 15, 2008 for the Sterling Debentures. With respect to the
Floating Rate Period, interest on the Debentures will be payable in
respect of each Interest Period (as defined below) quarterly in arrears
on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year
(or the next succeeding Business Day if not a Business Day unless
such Business Day is in the next calendar month in which case such
Interest Payment Date shall be the Business Day immediately
preceding such day), commencing December 15, 2017.
The term "Business Day" means any day other than a Saturday or
Sunday or any other day on which banking institutions are generally
authorized or obligated by law or regulation to close in The City of
New York or London, England and, in the case of the Euro
Debentures, is also a day on which the Trans-European Automated
Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (TARGET) System is
open.
The term "Interest Period" means each period from and including
the most recent Interest Payment Date (as defined herein) (or, prior to
the first Interest Payment Date, the Issue Date) to but excluding the
next Interest Payment Date (without regard to any permitted deferral
as described below under "-- Option to Defer Interest Payments") or
other date on which interest is due and payable in accordance with the
terms of the Debentures by redemption, acceleration, or maturity.
Option to Defer Interest Payments .........
Under the terms of each series of Debentures, provided that no Event
of Default (as defined in the Indenture) has occurred and is
continuing, we, in our sole discretion, may determine to defer interest
payments on the Debentures for a period (an "Extension Period")
effective for interest accruing as of the first day of any Interest Period
(the "Start Date") and extending not longer than the earlier of (a) the
tenth anniversary of the Start Date, and (b) the Maturity Date for the
Debentures (such final date being referred to as the "Maximum
Extension Date").

Interest may be so deferred by the giving of notice thereof by us to the
Trustee, not less than five nor more than fifteen days before the
Interest Payment Date relating to the first Interest Period in the
Extension Period during which interest will be deferred. The notice
will specify the Start Date and the last day of the Extension Period
(the "End Date"), which End Date may not be later than the
Maximum Extension Date; provided that our failure to pay interest in
full on any End Date or any Interest Payment Date thereafter that falls
prior to the Maximum Extension Date will be deemed to be a further
deferral of interest payments to the earlier of the next Interest
Payment Date and the Maximum Extension Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that we do not pay
interest in full on any Interest Payment Date and an Extension Period
on the Debentures has not otherwise been commenced in accordance
with the notice provisions described above, such non-payment shall,
if continuing for five days after notice from the Trustee, be deemed to
commence an Extension Period that shall continue until the earlier of
the next succeeding Interest Payment Date and the Maximum
Extension Date and shall not constitute an Event of Default with

2



respect to such Debentures.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest on deferred
amounts will accrue during an Extension Period from the first Interest
Payment Date following the Start Date and will be compounded on
subsequent Interest Payment Dates (annually or semi-annually during
the Fixed Rate Period, as applicable, or quarterly during the Floating
Rate Period), at the then applicable rate of interest on the Debentures.
On the Interest Payment Date falling on the End Date, the redemption
date for all outstanding Debentures, or the Maturity Date, as
applicable, we will be obligated to pay all accrued and unpaid
interest, including Additional Interest.

Interest that is not paid on any Debentures on the applicable Interest
Payment Date will bear additional interest ("Additional Interest") at
the then applicable rate per annum for such Debentures, compounded
annually or semi-annually, as applicable, during the Fixed Rate
Period and quarterly during the Floating Rate Period.
Additional Amounts ...............................
Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, we will pay additional
amounts ("Additional Amounts") on the Debentures with respect to
any beneficial owner of the Debentures that is a non-U.S. person to
ensure that each net payment to that non-U.S. person on Debentures
that it beneficially owns will not be less, due to the payment of U.S.
withholding tax, than the amount then otherwise due and payable.
We will not be obligated to make additional payments that exceed the
amount required to do so. For this purpose, a "net payment" on a
Debenture means a payment by us or any paying agent, including
payment of principal and interest, after deduction for any present or
future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge of the U.S.
Additional Amounts will constitute interest on the Debentures.
GE Capital Dividend Restriction ............
We have agreed that if:

·
we shall have, or shall be deemed to have, exercised our option
to defer payments of interest on a series of Debentures, as
described above under "-- Option to Defer Interest Payments",
or

·
there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default
under the Indenture,

then we will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary (as defined
herein) to:

(i) declare or pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem,
purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect
to, any of GE Capital's capital stock (which includes common
and preferred stock);

(ii) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium on or
repurchase or redeem any other subordinated indebtedness of
GE Capital that ranks pari passu with or junior in interest to the
Debentures; or

(iii) make any guaranty payments with respect to any subordinated
guarantee of GE Capital of the indebtedness of any Subsidiary
of GE Capital if such guaranty ranks pari passu with or junior

3



in interest to the Debentures;
provided, however, that during any period, including an Extension
Period, we shall be permitted to: (a) declare or pay dividends or
distributions in Common Stock (as defined herein) of GE Capital,
(b) declare a dividend in connection with the implementation of a
stockholders' rights plan or issue stock under any such plan in the
future or redeem or purchase any such rights pursuant thereto, and (c)
purchase Common Stock related to the issuance of Common Stock or
rights under any of GE Capital's benefit plans for its directors, officers
or employees; and provided further that where debt securities of
different series issued under the Indenture containing a deferral
feature similar to the deferral feature of the Debentures are subject to
Extension Periods terminating at different times or in other
circumstances where the payment of deferred interest cannot be made
simultaneously on all such debt securities (including the Debentures)
subject to an Extension Period, we will be permitted to make
payments of interest due on particular debt securities of each such
series (including the Debentures) at the end of the Extension Period
with respect thereto, but only if the amounts (not yet due and payable)
that will be required to be paid at the close of an Extension Period
with respect to all other series of such debt securities have been
deposited with the Trustee and held for application when such
amounts become due and payable.
In connection with the issuance of the Debentures, General Electric
Company ("GE Company") will covenant that, if GE Capital
declares, pays or makes any dividends, distributions or other
payments to GE Company or any of its Subsidiaries during an
Extension Period or when an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, in either case in violation of the restrictions described
