Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

On March 5, 2009, General Electric Capital Corporation (the “Company”), an indirect subsidiary of General Electric Company, distributed information to holders of certain series of its outstanding notes announcing an offer to purchase and consent solicitation with respect to those series. On June 22, 2009, the Company announced that pursuant to its offer, it had received valid tenders and the requisite consents for amendments to the indentures governing two series of its notes as indicated below (the “Consented Series”):

CUSIP/ISIN Number
Title of Security
369622CK9/US369622CK92
Floating Rate Notes due April 1, 2050
369622DH5/US369622DH54
Floating Rate Notes due December 1, 2051
   

Accordingly, on June 23, 2009, the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee, executed an amendment to the indenture governing the Consented Series removing the negative covenant that limited the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to pledge property and assets to secure debt without equally and ratably securing notes of the Consented Series.
