Ladies and Gentlemen:

General Electric Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Barclays Capital Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., GE Capital Markets, Inc., Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Co., HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., X.X. Xxxxxx Securities LLC, Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC, RBS Securities Inc. and UBS Securities LLC are entering into this U.S. Distribution Agreement dated as of November 21, 2014, with respect to the issue and sale by the Company of Global Medium-Term Notes (the “Notes”). This Amended and Restated U.S. Distribution Agreement is referred to herein as the “Agreement”.

The Notes are to be issued pursuant to a Third Amended and Restated Indenture dated as of February 27, 1997, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as successor trustee (the “Trustee”) as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 3, 1999, the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 2, 2001, the Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 22, 2002, the Fourth Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 24, 2007, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture dated as of December 2, 2008 and the Sixth Supplemental Indenture dated as of April 2, 2009 (as supplemented, the “Senior Indenture”) or an Amended and Restated Subordinated Debt Indenture dated as of July 15, 2005 between the Company and the Trustee (the “Subordinated Indenture”). The Senior Indenture and the Subordinated Indenture are collectively referred to herein as the “Indenture”. The Company has initially appointed the Trustee, at its corporate trust office in The City of New York, as the registrar (the “Registrar”) for the Notes. The Company has authorized the issuance of Notes to and through the Agents pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Notes will be issued in registered form. Each Note will be represented by either a global security in registered form without coupons delivered to the Trustee as agent for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) and recorded in the book-entry system maintained by DTC or by a certificate delivered to the holder thereof or a person designated by such holder.

Subject to the terms and conditions stated herein and further subject to the understanding that nothing in this Agreement shall impair the Company’s right to sell securities with terms similar or identical to any Note independently of the continuous offering of Notes contemplated by this Agreement, the Company hereby (i) appoints the Agents as agents of the Company for the purpose of soliciting purchases of the Notes from the Company by others pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof, (ii) agrees that whenever the Company determines from time to time to sell Notes directly to one or more of the Agents as principal for resale to others (such resale to be at fixed offering prices or at varying prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of resale or otherwise as determined by such Agent), it will enter into a Terms Agreement (as defined below) relating to such sale in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(b) hereof, (iii) reserves the right from time to time to sell Notes on its own behalf directly to investors (other than broker-dealers) or through affiliates that are not Agents, and (iv) reserves the right from time to time to appoint one or more additional firms registered as broker/dealers under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”) either (A) to solicit purchases of Notes from the Company by others or (B) to purchase Notes directly from the Company as principal for resale to others; provided, however, that such sales will be made on terms substantially the same as those contained in this Agreement. Any such additional firm designated by the Company pursuant to clause (iv) above shall be considered an Agent hereunder for all purposes with respect to each transaction with respect to which such appointment is made. In the case of each purchaser whose offer to purchase Notes from the Company has been solicited by an Agent as agent and accepted by the Company, such Agent will make reasonable efforts to assist the Company in obtaining performance by such purchaser, but no Agent shall have any liability to the Company in the event any such purchase is not consummated for any reason.

An automatic shelf registration statement as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”) in respect of the Notes has been filed on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) not earlier than three years prior to the date hereof. The registration statement has become effective pursuant to the rules and regulations promulgated by the Commission under the 1933 Act (the “1933 Act Regulations”) and the Indenture was filed or incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “1939 Act”). The Company has filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the 1933 Act a prospectus supplement specifically relating to the offering of the Notes under the global medium term note program (the “Prospectus Supplement”) and will file particular pricing supplements for each particular offering of a tranche of Notes. The term “Registration Statement” as used with respect to a particular tranche of Notes, means the registration statement, as deemed revised at the time of such registration statement’s effectiveness for purposes of Section 11 of the 1933 Act as such section applies to the Company and the Agents for such offering of a tranche of Notes pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(1) and Rule 430B(f)(2) under the 1933 Act (the “Effective Time”), including (i) all documents then filed as a part thereof or incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein and (ii) any information contained or incorporated by reference in a prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the 1933 Act, to the extent such information is deemed, pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(1) under the 1933 Act, to be part of the Registration Statement at the Effective Time. The term “Basic Prospectus” means the prospectus included in the Registration Statement exclusive of any supplement filed pursuant to Rule 424. The Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, is referred to herein as the “Program Prospectus”. Prior to the

determination of the final terms of a particular tranche of Notes, the term “Prospectus” means the Program Prospectus, and after such determination, such document plus a supplement (the “Pricing Supplement”) prepared for the sale of the particular tranche of Notes and including a description of the final terms of such tranche of Notes and the terms of the offering thereof. The term “Preliminary Prospectus” means a preliminary prospectus supplement specifically relating to a tranche of Notes together with the Program Prospectus. The term “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus” as used herein means the documents attached as Schedule II to the applicable Terms Agreement for a particular tranche of Notes. The “Pricing Effective Time” as used herein with respect to any particular tranche shall occur upon the earlier of when either (i) a Permitted Free Writing Prospectus with the final terms of the offering and either the Program Prospectus or a Preliminary Prospectus, or (ii) the Pricing Supplement, prepared by the Company, and the Program Prospectus, shall be made available to the Agents for electronic delivery to purchasers in connection with such tranche (the documentation in (i) or (ii), as applicable, in the aggregate, the “Pricing Disclosure Material”).

SECTION 2. SOLICITATIONS AS AGENT; PURCHASES AS PRINCIPAL.

(a) SOLICITATIONS AS AGENT. Except when the Agent has agreed to purchase as principal pursuant to a Terms Agreement as described in Section 2(b) hereof, such Agent agrees to undertake at the request of the Company and on the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained to use its best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the Notes, as agent of the Company, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus.

The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to suspend such solicitation by any one or more of the Agents of purchases of the Notes commencing at any time for any period of time or permanently. Upon receipt of instructions from the Company, each Agent will forthwith suspend solicitation of purchases from the Company until such time as the Company has advised such Agent or Agents that such solicitation may be resumed.

Each Agent shall have the right to suspend solicitations, commencing at any time such Agent reasonably believes that there has occurred a material adverse change in the condition of the Company and its consolidated affiliates, taken as a whole, from that then set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and ending at the time such Agent has been reasonably satisfied that adequate and full disclosure of such adverse change has been made (including, without limitation, by means of any necessary amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or the use of a Permitted Free Writing Prospectus); provided, however, that any such Agent shall notify the Company of its belief prior to or concurrently with any such suspension of solicitations.

The Company agrees to pay each Agent a commission, by means of a deduction from the proceeds of a sale of Notes, equal to a percentage of the public offering price of each Note sold by the Company as a result of a solicitation made by such Agent as the Company and such Agent may agree. Unless otherwise agreed upon by the Company and each Agent, such commission percentage shall range from 0.04% to 0.60% of the public offering price of each Note. It is understood that no commission will be payable with respect to any offer to purchase Notes accepted by the Company in the event that the Company tenders such Note and delivery of such Note is not accepted by the purchaser.

As agent, each Agent is authorized to solicit orders for the Notes at a purchase price which shall be agreed upon by the Company and such Agent and set forth in a supplement to the Prospectus and (except as may be otherwise provided in an applicable Pricing Supplement) only in denominations of 100,000 units of the currency in which the Notes are denominated (the “Specified Currency”) or any integral multiple of 1,000 units of such Specified Currency in excess thereof (in the case of Certificated Notes) or in denominations of 1,000 units of the Specified Currency (in the case of Book-Entry Notes). Each Agent shall communicate to the Company, orally or in writing, each reasonable offer to purchase Notes received by such Agent as agent. The Company shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase the Notes and may reject any such offer in whole or in part. Each Agent shall have the right to reject any offer that is not a reasonable offer to purchase the Notes received by it in whole or in part, and any such rejection shall not

be deemed a breach of such Agent’s agreement contained herein. “Reasonable best efforts” with respect to an offer shall be determined by such Agent by reference to then-prevailing interest rates and the interest rates then posted by the Company with respect to offers to sell the Notes.

(b) PURCHASES AS PRINCIPAL. Each sale of Notes to one or more Agents as principal shall be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and a separate agreement which will provide for the sale of such Notes to, and the purchase and reoffering thereof by, such Agent or Agents. Each such separate agreement (which shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto and which may take the form of an exchange of any standard form of written telecommunication between such Agent or Agents and the Company or may be an oral agreement confirmed by the relevant Agent in writing (including facsimile transmission) and shall contain the information specified in Exhibit A hereto) is herein referred to as a “Terms Agreement.” The Terms Agreement shall not be effective, and the Agents agree that no contracts of sale may be entered into by the Agents in respect of a sale of Notes as described in this Section, until the Company has made the Pricing Disclosure Material available to the Agents and the Pricing Effective Time occurs. Any Agent’s commitment to purchase Notes pursuant to any Terms Agreement shall be deemed to have been made on the basis of the representations and warranties of the Company herein contained and shall be subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth. Each Agent shall notify the Company promptly after its last sale of Notes purchased under a Terms Agreement of its completion of the distribution thereof.

(c) ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES. Administrative procedures respecting the sale of Notes (the “Administrative Procedures”) shall be agreed upon from time to time by the Agents and the Company. The Agents and the Company agree to perform the respective duties and obligations specifically provided to be performed by them herein and in the Administrative Procedures. The Administrative Procedures as in effect on the Commencement Date are attached as Exhibit B hereto. The Administrative Procedures may be amended from time to time only by written agreement of the Company and the Agents and, in the case of amendments which affect the rights, duties or obligations of the Trustee and the Registrar, with the written agreement of the Trustee and the Registrar. To the extent the Administrative Procedures in effect from time to time conflict with any provision of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. The Company will furnish a copy of the Administrative Procedures from time to time in effect to the Trustee and the Registrar.

(d) INFORMATION. The Company authorizes the Agents, in connection with their solicitation of purchases of the Notes, to use only information taken from the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, and the documents incorporated therein by reference, and each of the Agents agrees that it has and will have sole responsibility for the completeness and accuracy of all other information, written or oral, furnished by such Agent and its agents and employees to purchasers and prospective purchasers of the Notes, including any free writing prospectuses prepared by or on behalf of the Agent and not required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 433 under the 1933 Act.

(e) DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS. The documents required to be delivered by Section 5 hereof shall be delivered at the offices of the Agent (or, if more than one Agent is participating in any such sale, the lead Agent), or at such other location as shall be specified in the relevant Terms Agreement, on the date required for such delivery set forth in Section 5 hereof.

(f) REGISTERED BROKER-DEALERS. Each Agent represents that it is a broker-dealer registered under the 1934 Act.

(g) OBLIGATIONS SEVERAL. The Company acknowledges that the obligations of the Agents are several and, subject to the provisions of this Agreement applicable thereto, each Agent shall have complete discretion as to the manner in which it solicits purchasers for the Notes and as to the identity thereof.

SECTION 3. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. The Company covenants with each Agent as follows:

(a) NOTICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS. The Company will notify each Agent promptly (i) of the filing and effectiveness of any amendment (other than any amendment relating solely to securities other than the Notes) to the Registration Statement (including any post-effective amendment), (ii) of the mailing or the delivery to the Commission for filing of any supplement to the Prospectus, other than prospectus supplements related to specific Note offerings and filings relating solely to securities other than the Notes, (iii) of the receipt of any comments from the Commission with respect to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, (iv) of any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or for additional information (other than in each case amendments or supplements or information relating solely to securities other than the Notes), and (v) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the 1933 Act. The Company will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any stop order and, if any stop order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible moment.

(b) COPIES OF REGISTRATION STATEMENT, PROSPECTUS. Upon request, the Company will deliver to each Agent a conformed copy of the Registration Statement (as originally filed) and of each amendment thereto relating to the Notes (including exhibits filed therewith or incorporated by reference therein and documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus). The Company will furnish to each Agent as many copies of any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus and the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) as such Agent shall reasonably request so long as such Agent is required to deliver a Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the 1933 Act) in connection with sales or solicitations of offers to purchase the Notes.

(c) REVISIONS OF PROSPECTUS — MATERIAL CHANGES. If, during such period after the first date of the public offering of the Notes as in the opinion of counsel to the Company a prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the 1933 Act) is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of the Notes solicited by an Agent as agent or sales of Notes by an Agent as principal, any event shall occur as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus or the Pricing Disclosure Material in order that the Prospectus or Pricing Disclosure Material will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, and in order that timely information is provided pursuant to Rule 159 of the 1933 Act, or if it shall be necessary at any such time to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus in order to comply with the requirements of the 1933 Act or the 1933 Act Regulations, prompt notice shall be given, and confirmed in writing, to each Agent to cease the solicitation of offers to purchase the Notes in such Agent’s capacity as agent and to cease sales of any Notes such Agent may then own as principal. If the Company shall determine that solicitation of purchases of the Notes shall be resumed, or if on the date of the occurrence of the event necessitating an amendment of or supplement to the Prospectus an Agent holds Notes that were issued by the Company less than 90 days prior to such date, then, prior to the Company’s authorizing the Agents to resume solicitations of purchases of the Notes or prior to sales of any such Notes, the Company will promptly prepare and file with the Commission such amendment or supplement, whether by filing documents pursuant to the 1934 Act, the 1933 Act or otherwise, as may be necessary to correct such untrue statement or omission or to make the Prospectus or Pricing Disclosure Material comply with such requirements.

(d) PROSPECTUS REVISIONS — PERIODIC FINANCIAL INFORMATION. Promptly after the filing with the Commission of the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q with respect to each of the first three quarters of any fiscal year, the Company, upon the reasonable request of any Agent who cannot access such reports on the Commission’s website, shall make available electronically such reports to such Agent; provided, however, that if on the date of such filing the Agents shall have suspended solicitation of purchases of the Notes in their capacity as agents pursuant to a request from the Company, and if no Agent shall then hold any Notes as principal purchased pursuant to a Terms Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to make available electronically such reports until such time as the Company shall determine that solicitation of purchases of the Notes should be resumed or shall subsequently enter into a new Terms Agreement with one or more of the Agents.

(e) PROSPECTUS REVISIONS — AUDITED FINANCIAL INFORMATION. Promptly after the filing with the Commission of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K including the audited financial statements of the Company for the preceding fiscal year, the Company, upon the request of any Agent who cannot access such reports on the Commission’s website, shall make available electronically such report to such Agent; provided, however, that if on the date of such filing the Agents shall have suspended solicitation of purchases of Notes in their capacity as agents pursuant to a request from the Company, and if no Agent shall then hold any Notes as principal purchased pursuant to a Terms Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to make available electronically such reports until such time as the Company shall determine that solicitation of purchases of Notes should be resumed or shall subsequently enter into a new Terms Agreement with one or more of the Agents.

(f) SECTION 11(A) EARNINGS STATEMENTS. The Company will make generally available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, earnings statements, which need not be audited, covering twelve month periods beginning after the “Effective Date” (as defined in Rule 158(c) under the 1933 Act) of the Registration Statement with respect to each sale of Notes that will satisfy Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act and comply with the rules and regulations thereunder.

(g) COPIES OF CURRENT REPORTS. The Company will make available electronically to any Agent who cannot access such reports on the Commission’s website, upon request of such Agent, promptly after the filing thereof with the Commission, its current reports on Form 8-K filed (and not furnished) with the Commission.

(h) BLUE SKY QUALIFICATIONS. If required, the Company will endeavor, in cooperation with the Agents, to qualify the Notes for offering and sale under the applicable securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions of the United States as the Agents may reasonably designate, and will maintain such qualifications in effect for as long as may be required for the distribution of the Notes; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general or unlimited consent to service of process, to qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to qualify any Notes for offer and sale in any

jurisdiction in which the Company shall have notified the Agents prior to the distribution of such Notes that it is unable or unwilling to comply with the disclosure or reporting requirements imposed by such jurisdiction. The Company will file such statements and reports as may be required by the laws of each jurisdiction in which the Notes have been qualified as above provided.

(i) 1934 ACT FILINGS. The Company, during the period when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(c) under the 1933 Act) is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, will file timely all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act.

(j) COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES REGULATIONS AND COMMISSION REQUESTS. The Company will (i) in respect of the Notes, promptly within the time periods specified therein, effect the filings required of it pursuant to Rule 424 and/or Rule 433 under the 1933 Act, and (ii) take such steps as it deems necessary to ascertain promptly whether each Prospectus or Permitted Free Writing Prospectus transmitted for filing under Rule 424 or Rule 433 of the 1933 Act, as applicable, were received for filing by the Commission and, in the event that any was not, it will promptly file the relevant Prospectus or Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, as applicable.

(k) FILING FEES. The Company will pay the required Commission filing fees related to the Notes within the time required by Rule 456(b)(1) under the Act and otherwise in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r) under the 1933 Act.

SECTION 5. CONDITIONS OF OBLIGATIONS. Each Agent’s obligations to solicit offers to purchase the Notes as agent of the Company, the obligation of any purchaser to purchase Notes sold through an Agent as agent, and any Agent’s obligations to purchase Notes pursuant to any Terms Agreement will be subject at all times to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company herein and to the accuracy of the statements of the Company’s officers made in any certificate furnished pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance and observance by the Company of all covenants and agreements herein contained on its part to be performed and observed and to the following additional conditions precedent:

(i) OPINION OF COMPANY COUNSEL. The opinion of the Associate General Counsel - Treasury of the Company, or of such other counsel satisfactory to such Agent(s), dated as of such Commencement Date or Settlement Date, as the case may be, in form and substance satisfactory to the Agents and counsel for the Agents, to the effect that:

(A) The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

(B) The Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company, is a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability. The Indenture has been qualified under the 1939 Act.

(C) [For Commencement Date only: The Notes, when authorized] [For Settlement Dates: The Notes have been authorized], executed and authenticated in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and delivered to and paid for by any purchaser of Notes sold through an Agent as agent or any Agent as principal pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement, would be valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability) and would entitle the holders thereof to the benefits of the Indenture.

(D) This Agreement (and, if the opinion is being given pursuant to Section 6(c) hereof as a result of the Company’s having entered into a Terms Agreement requiring such opinion, the applicable Terms Agreement) has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company.

(E) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the issuance and sale of the Notes by the Company as provided herein will (i) contravene the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Company or (ii) result in any violation of any of (A) the terms or provisions of any law, rule or regulation of the State of New York or any federal law of the United States of America (other than with respect to applicable securities or Blue Sky laws, as to which such counsel need not express any opinion) or (B) the terms of any indenture, mortgage or other agreement or instrument known to such counsel by which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is bound and which is material to the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.

(F) The statements contained in the Prospectus under the captions “Description of Notes”, “Description of Debt Securities” and “Plan of Distribution,” insofar as such statements purport to summarize certain provisions of documents (or provisions thereof) or statutes (or provisions thereof) referred to therein, fairly present the matters referred to therein.

(G) Each document incorporated by reference in the Prospectus which was filed pursuant to the 1934 Act (except for the financial statements and schedules and other financial and statistical material contained or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom, as to which such counsel need not express any opinion) complied when so filed as to form in all material respects with the 1934 Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

(H) The Registration Statement is effective under the 1933 Act and, to the best of such counsel’s knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the 1933 Act or proceedings therefor initiated or threatened by the Commission.

(I) The Registration Statement at the Effective Time and the Prospectus and any supplements and amendments thereto as of their respective effective or issue dates (except for the financial statements and schedules and other financial and statistical material contained or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom and except for supplements and amendments relating only to securities other than the Notes, as to which, in each case, such counsel need express no opinion) comply as to form in all material respects with the 1933 Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

(J) [For Commencement Date and Settlement Dates only] Nothing has come to such counsel’s attention that would lead such counsel to believe that (except for the financial statements and schedules and other financial and statistical material contained or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom, as to which counsel need not express any belief) (i) each part of the Registration Statement at the time it became effective, and if an amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed by the Company with the Commission subsequent to such date, at the time of the most recent such filing prior to the time of issuance of this opinion, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, [and] (ii) [For Settlement Dates only: the Pricing Disclosure Material included as of the Pricing Effective Time for the Notes to be sold pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement], and the Prospectus included as of the Commencement Date [For Settlement Dates only: and as of the date of the Pricing Supplement relating to the Notes to be sold pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement and the settlement date as the case may be,] any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(ii) OPINION OF TAX COUNSEL TO THE COMPANY. The opinion of Tax Counsel of the Company, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP or other tax counsel satisfactory to such Agent(s) dated as of such Commencement Date or Settlement Date with respect to any Terms Agreement, if called for by such Terms Agreement, confirming the accuracy of the disclosure set forth under the caption “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in the Prospectus.

(iii) OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE AGENTS. The opinion of Xxxxx Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx, LLP, counsel to the Agents, dated as of such Commencement Date or Settlement Date, as the case may be, covering the matters referred to in subparagraph (i) under the subheadings (A), (B), (C), (D), (F) and (H) and to the following effect (with appropriate modifications to reflect whether an opinion is given at the Commencement Date or the Settlement Date) (x) the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and any supplements and amendments thereto (except for the financial statements and schedules and other financial and statistical material included therein or omitted therefrom and except for supplements and amendments relating only to securities other than the Notes, as to which such counsel need express no opinion) appear on their face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements of the 1933 Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, and (y) nothing has come to the attention of such counsel that causes such counsel to believe that insofar as relevant to the offering of the Notes, (except for the financial statements and schedules and other financial and statistical material included therein or omitted therefrom, as to which counsel need not express any belief) any part of the Registration Statement at the time it became effective, and if an amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed by the Company with the Commission subsequent to such date, at the time of the most recent such filing, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, the Pricing Disclosure Material contained as of the Pricing Effective Time for the Notes to be sold pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement, and the Prospectus contained, as of the Commencement Date and the date of the Pricing Supplement relating to the Notes to be sold pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement, as the case may be, or on the Settlement Date contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(iv) In rendering the opinion referred to in subparagraph (i) above, such counsel may state that with respect to (I) and (J) of subparagraph (i), such counsel’s opinion and belief are based upon his participation in the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Material and the Prospectus and any amendments and supplements thereto (including documents incorporated by reference) and review and discussion of the contents thereof, but are without independent check or verification except as stated therein. In rendering the opinion referred to in subparagraph (iii) above, such counsel may state that with respect to (x) and (y) of subparagraph (iii) above, such counsel’s opinion and belief are based upon their participation in the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Material and the Prospectus and any amendments and supplements thereto (other than documents incorporated by reference) and upon their review and discussion of the contents thereof (including documents incorporated by reference), but are without independent check or verification except as stated therein. In rendering the opinions referred to in subparagraphs (i) and (iii) above, such counsel may state that with respect to (B) and (C) of subparagraph (i) above, such counsels’ opinions, insofar as such opinions relate to enforceability, are subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to the effect of general equitable principles (regardless of whether the issue of enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(b) OFFICER’S CERTIFICATE. At the Commencement Date and at each Settlement Date with respect to any Terms Agreement, there shall have been no material adverse change in the condition of the Company and its consolidated affiliates, taken as a whole, from that set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (excluding any amendments or supplements to the Prospectus since the relevant Pricing Effective Time, if any); and the Agents shall have received on the Commencement Date and, if called for by the applicable Terms Agreement, at each Settlement Date a certificate in the form of Exhibit D hereto, dated the Commencement Date or such Settlement Date and signed by a vice president of the Company, to the foregoing effect. The officer making such certificate may rely upon the best of his knowledge as to proceedings pending or threatened.

(c) COMFORT LETTER. The Agents shall have received at the Commencement Date and at each Settlement Date with respect to any Terms Agreement, if called for by such Terms Agreement, a letter from the Company’s independent public accountants, dated as of the Commencement Date or such Settlement Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Agents, containing statements and information of the type ordinarily included in accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters with respect to the financial statements and certain financial information contained in or incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

(d) OTHER DOCUMENTS. On the Commencement Date and at each Settlement Date, as the case may be, with respect to any applicable Terms Agreement, counsel to the Agents shall have been furnished with such documents and opinions as such counsel may reasonably require for the purpose of enabling such counsel to pass upon the issuance and sale of Notes as herein contemplated and related proceedings, or in order to evidence the accuracy and completeness of any of the representations and warranties, or the fulfillment of any of the conditions, herein contained; and all proceedings taken by the Company in connection with the issuance and sale of Notes as herein contemplated shall be satisfactory in form and substance to the Agents and to counsel to the Agents.

If any condition specified in this Section shall not have been fulfilled as of the relevant date required, this Agreement and any Terms Agreement may be terminated as to any Agent by notice by such Agent to the Company at any time at or prior to the Commencement Date or the applicable Settlement Date, as the case may be, and such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party, except that the covenants set forth in Section 3(f) hereof, the provisions of Section 4 hereof, the indemnity and contribution agreements set forth in Sections 8 and 9 hereof, and the provisions of Sections 10 and 14 hereof shall remain in effect.

SECTION 6. ADDITIONAL COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. The Company covenants and agrees that:

(a) REAFFIRMATION OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. (i) Each acceptance by it of an offer for the purchase of Notes, and each sale of Notes to any Agent pursuant to a Terms Agreement, shall be deemed to be an affirmation that the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Section 1(a) of this Agreement and in any certificate theretofore delivered to the Agents pursuant hereto are true and correct at the time of such acceptance or sale, as the case may be, and an undertaking that such representations and warranties will be true and correct at the time of delivery to the purchaser or his agent, or to the Agents, of the Note or Notes relating to such acceptance or sale, as the case may be, as though made at and as of each such time (and it is understood that such representations and warranties shall relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to each such time);

(b) SUBSEQUENT DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES. Each time that (i) the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be amended or supplemented (except for an amendment or supplement limited to information as to the offering or sale of a particular tranche of Notes) or a new Registration Statement is used by the Company with respect to the Notes, and (ii) there is filed with the Commission any annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly report on Form 10-Q or periodic report on Form 8-K incorporated by reference into the Prospectus and any Agent reasonably requests, the Company shall furnish or cause to be furnished or otherwise make available to the Agents (in the case of clause (i)), or the requesting Agent(s) (in the case of clause (ii)) promptly a certificate in form satisfactory to such Agent(s) to the effect that the statements contained in the certificates referred to in Section 5(b) hereof which were last furnished to the Agents are true and correct at the time of such amendment or supplement or filing or sale, as the case may be, as though made at and as of such time (except that such statements shall be deemed to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to such time or the new Registration Statement, as the case may be) or, in lieu of such certificate, certificates of the same tenor as the certificates referred to in said Section 5(b), modified as necessary to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of delivery of such certificates or the new Registration Statement, as the case may be; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to furnish any certificates to any Agents pursuant to this paragraph at a time when the Agents shall have suspended solicitation of purchases of Notes in their capacity as agents pursuant to instructions of the Company, if no Agent shall then hold any Notes as principal purchased under a Terms Agreement;

(c) SUBSEQUENT DELIVERY OF LEGAL OPINIONS. Each time that the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be amended or supplemented through the filing of a quarterly report on Form 10-Q or an annual report on Form 10-K or otherwise (except for an amendment or supplement limited to information as to the offering or sale of a particular tranche of Notes) or a new Registration Statement is used by the Company with respect to the Notes, the Company shall furnish or cause to be furnished or otherwise make available promptly to the Agents a written opinion of the Associate General Counsel - Treasury of the Company or of such other counsel satisfactory to the Agents, dated the date of delivery of such opinion, in form satisfactory to the Agents, of the same tenor as the opinion referred to in Section 5(a) hereof but modified, as necessary, to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of delivery of such opinion or the new Registration Statement, as the case may be, or, in lieu of such opinion, counsel last furnishing such opinion to the Agents shall furnish the Agents with a letter to the effect that the Agents may rely on such last opinion to the same extent as though it were dated the date of such letter authorizing reliance (except that statements in such last opinion shall be deemed to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of delivery of such letter authorizing reliance or the new Registration Statement, as the case may be); and

(d) SUBSEQUENT DELIVERY OF COMFORT LETTERS. Each time that the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be amended or supplemented to include additional financial information or a new Registration Statement is used by the Company with respect to the Notes or there is filed with the Commission any document incorporated by reference into the Prospectus which contains additional financial information, the Company shall cause its independent public accountants promptly to furnish or otherwise make available to the Agents a letter, dated the date of filing of such amendment, supplement or document with the Commission or the date of effectiveness of such new Registration Statement, or the date of such sale, as the case may be, in form satisfactory to the Agents, of the same tenor as the letter referred to in Section 5(c) hereof; provided, however, that if the Registration Statement or the Prospectus is amended or supplemented solely to include financial information as of and for a fiscal quarter, the Company’s independent public accountants may limit the scope of such letter to the unaudited financial statements included in such amendment or supplement unless any other information included therein of an accounting, financial or statistical nature is of such a nature that, in the Agents’ reasonable judgment, such letter should cover such other information.

SECTION 7. ADDITIONAL COVENANTS OF THE AGENTS. Each Agent agrees that:

(a) CALCULATION AGENT. If requested by the Company and agreed by such Agent with respect to any Notes offered through such Agent as agent or to such Agent as principal, such Agent will act as Calculation Agent with respect to such Notes for all purposes. Unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the relevant Agent, the rights and obligations of the Company and such Agent shall, with respect to each instance in which such Agent is requested to so act, be governed by the Master Calculation Agent Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit C hereto.

(b) DISCRETIONARY ACCOUNTS. It will not confirm sales of any Notes to accounts over which it exercises discretionary authority.

(c) FREE WRITING PROSPECTUS USE. Except as otherwise agreed by the Company and specified in a Terms Agreement with respect to a particular offering of a tranche of Notes, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Notes that would constitute a free writing prospectus, as defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act, other than a Permitted Free Writing Prospectus or a free writing prospectus which is not required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 433 under the 1933 Act; provided, that, if so specified in the Terms Agreement or the Company shall otherwise so notify the Agents in writing, the Agent will make no offer relating to the Notes that will constitute a free writing prospectus as defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act, other than a Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, without the prior consent of the Company. Any such material prepared by or on behalf of such Agent will only be used if it complies in all material respects with the requirement of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations.

(d) SELLING RESTRICTIONS COMPLIANCE. (i) Each Agent hereby certifies that such Agent has anti-money laundering policies and procedures in place in accordance with the requirements imposed by the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT Act) Act of 2001, Pub. L, 107-56, 115 Stat. 380 (October 26, 2001), or any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, and will comply with legal measures administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Department of the Treasury. Each Agent also certifies that such Agent has implemented an anti-money laundering compliance program pursuant to FINRA Rule 3310; and (ii) Each Agent will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in each country or jurisdiction outside of the United States in or from which it purchases, offers, sells or delivers Notes or has in its possession or distributes the Prospectus for such Notes or any other offering material and will obtain any consent, approval or permission required by it for the purchase, offer or sale by it of the Notes under the laws and regulations in force in any jurisdiction to which it is subject or in which it makes such purchases, offers or sales and the Company shall have no responsibility therefor.

SECTION 8. INDEMNIFICATION.

(a) INDEMNIFICATION OF THE AGENTS. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and each person, if any, who controls any Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Material or the Prospectus (if used within the period set forth in Section 3(c) and as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by any Agent expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement with respect to any Preliminary Prospectus (including, without limitation, any preliminary prospectus supplement or preliminary pricing supplement), any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Material, or any Prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Agent from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased Notes, or any person controlling such Agent, if a copy of the Pricing Disclosure Material or the Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) was provided (with notice that it contains additional or different material information) to such Agent by the Company sufficiently far enough in advance of the time of sale in order to enable such Agent to convey to the purchaser of the Notes and was not conveyed by or on behalf of such Agent to such person at or prior to the entry into the contract of sale of the Notes to such person pursuant to Rule 159 of the 1933 Act, and if the Pricing Disclosure Material or the Prospectus (as so amended or supplemented) would have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim, damage or liability.

(b) INDEMNIFICATION OF COMPANY. Each Agent agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers who sign the Registration Statement and any person controlling the Company to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Agent, (i) with reference to information relating to such Agent furnished in writing by such Agent expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Material or the Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto and (ii) arising from any other free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Agent, except to the extent arising from the information furnished in writing by the Company expressly for use therein.

(c) GENERAL. Promptly after receipt by any person of notice of any claim or the institution of any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either of the two preceding paragraphs, such person (the “indemnified party”) shall notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it elects (upon notice to the indemnified party), jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If the indemnifying party shall not have so elected to assume such defense, then, upon request of the indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. If the indemnifying party shall so elect to assume such defense, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party pursuant to this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the Agents in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(a) and by the Company in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising

out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

SECTION 9. CONTRIBUTION. If the indemnification provided for in Section 8 is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) if the indemnifying party is the Company, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Agents on the other from the issue and sale of the Notes, (ii) if the indemnifying party is an Agent, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such Agent on the one hand and the Company on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, or (iii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) or clause (ii) above, as the case may be, is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above or the relative fault referred to in clause (ii) above, as the case may be, but also such relative fault (in cases covered by clause (i)) or such relative benefits (in cases covered by clause (ii)) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Agents on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total sales price received by the Company from the sale of Notes that are the subject of the claim for indemnification (before deducting expenses) bears to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Agents from sales of Notes that are the subject of the claim for indemnification. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Agents on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement of a fact or the omission to state a fact relates to information supplied by the Company or statements made or furnished by the Agents and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Agents agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Agents were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations provided for, in the respective cases, in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, no Agent shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the sum of (i) the total price at which any Notes, the purchase of which is the subject of the claim for indemnification and which was solicited by such Agent, were sold by the Company and (ii) the total price at which any Notes, the purchase of which is the subject of the claim for indemnification and which such Agent purchased as principal and distributed to the public, were offered to the public, exceeds the amount of any damages which such Agent has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Agents’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 9 are several, in proportion to the respective amounts of Notes solicited or purchased by each of such Agents, and not joint.

SECTION 10. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS TO SURVIVE DELIVERY. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or any Terms Agreement, or contained in certificates of officers of the Company submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agents or any controlling person of any Agent, or by or on behalf of the Company or any controlling person of the Company, and shall survive each delivery of and payment for any of the Notes.

SECTION 11. TERMINATION.

(a) TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. This Agreement may be terminated as to a party for any reason, at any time by any party hereto upon the giving of 30 days’ written notice of such termination to each other party hereto; provided, however, that an Agent’s termination of this Agreement shall terminate the Agreement only between itself and the Company.

(b) TERMINATION OF A TERMS AGREEMENT. The Agent or, in the case of a syndication issue, the majority in interest of the Agents, may terminate any Terms Agreement, immediately upon notice to the Company, at any time prior to the Settlement Date relating thereto if (i) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or materially limited; (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in the State of New York or the United States shall have been declared by Federal authorities; or (iii) there shall have occurred any material outbreak, or material escalation, of hostilities or other national or international calamity or crisis, of such magnitude and severity in its effect on the financial markets of the United States, in the

reasonable judgment of such Agent or a majority in interest of the Agents, as to prevent or materially impair the marketing, or enforcement of contracts for sale, of the Notes.

(c) GENERAL. In the event of any such termination, no party will have any liability to the other parties hereto or to the other parties to any Terms Agreement so terminated, except that (i) the Agents shall be entitled to any commissions earned in accordance with the fourth paragraph of Section 2(a) hereof, (ii) if at the time of termination (a) any Agent shall own any Notes purchased pursuant to a Terms Agreement with the intention of reselling them or (b) an offer to purchase any of the Notes has been accepted by the Company but the time of delivery to the purchaser or his agent of the Note or Notes relating thereto has not occurred, the covenants set forth in Sections 3 and 6 hereof shall remain in effect until such Notes are so resold or delivered, as the case may be, and (iii) the covenant set forth in Section 3(f) hereof (except that the Company shall no longer be required to comply with the provisions of Section 3(f) after it has made generally available to its security holders an earnings statement (which need not be audited) covering a twelve-month period beginning after the date of the last sale of Notes hereunder (including sales to an Agent under a Terms Agreement) which shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder), the provisions of Section 4 hereof, the agreements of the Agents pursuant to Section 7 hereof, the indemnity and contribution agreements set forth in Sections 8 and 9 hereof, and the provisions of Sections 10 and 14 hereof shall remain in effect.

GLOBAL MEDIUM-TERM NOTES

ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES

The Global Medium-Term Notes (the “Notes”), are to be offered on a continuous basis by General Electric Capital Corporation (the “Company”). Each of Barclays Capital Inc., Citibank Global Markets Inc., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., GE Capital Markets, Inc., Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Co., HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., X.X. Xxxxxx Securities LLC, Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC, RBS Securities Inc. and UBS Securities LLC (each an “Agent”) has agreed to solicit offers to purchase the Notes in registered form. The Notes are being sold pursuant to an Amended and Restated U.S. Distribution Agreement dated as of November 21, 2014 (the “Agreement”) between the Company and the Agents. In the Agreement, each Agent has agreed to use its best efforts to solicit purchases of the Notes. Each Agent, as principal, may purchase Notes for its own account and if it does so, the Company and such Agent will enter into a terms agreement, as contemplated by the Agreement.

The Notes are to be issued pursuant to: (i) a Third Amended and Restated Indenture dated as of February 27, 1997, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as The Chase Manhattan Bank)), as trustee (the “Trustee”) as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 3, 1999, the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 2, 2001, the Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 22, 2002, the Fourth Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 24, 2007, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture dated as of December 2, 2008 and the Sixth Supplemental Indenture dated as of April 2, 2009 (the Third Amended and Restated Indenture, as supplemented, the “Senior Indenture”); and (ii) a Subordinated Debt Indenture dated as of July 1, 2005, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon as amended and restated by an Amended and Restated Subordinated Debt Indenture, dated as of July 15, 2005 (the “Subordinated Indenture” and together with the Senior Indenture, the “Indentures”). Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indentures, and unless otherwise provided, all Securities of the same series having identical terms but for authentication date and public offering price (a “Tranche”) need not be issued at the same time. Unless otherwise provided, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, a Tranche may be reopened for issuance of additional Securities in such Tranche. The Company has initially appointed the Trustee, at its corporate trust office in The City of New York, as the registrar (the “Registrar”) for the Notes. The Company has authorized the issuance of Notes to and through the Agents pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Notes will be issued in registered form. Notes will bear interest at a fixed rate (the “Fixed Rate Notes”), which may be zero in the case of certain original issue discount notes (the “OID Notes”), or at floating rates (the “Floating Rate Notes”). Fixed Rate Notes may (i) pay a level amount in respect of both interest and principal amortized over the life of the Notes (the “Amortizing Notes”), (ii) pay an amount in respect of principal determined by the relationship between (x) the currency base rate of a unit of the face amount currency per unit of the Indexed Currency specified on the face of such Note and (y) the spot rate (as derived in accordance with such Note) expressed in terms of a unit of the face amount currency per unit of such Indexed Currency for an amount of such Indexed Currency equal to the face amount of such Note on the Index Determination Date specified on the face of such Note (“Indexed Notes”) and (iii) provide for payment of both principal and interest to be made, at the election of the Company, in the Optional Payment Currency specified on the face of such Note at the Designated Exchange rate specified on the face thereof with certain adjustments to the payment of principal if such Note is redeemed prior to the Maturity Date or if payment thereon is accelerated (“Dual Currency Notes”). The Notes will be issued in U.S. dollars or other currencies (the “Specified Currency”). Each Note will be represented by either a Global Security (as defined below), beneficial interests in which will be recorded in book-entry systems maintained by one or more of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), Clearstream Banking, Société Anonyme (“Clearstream, Luxembourg”) or Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System (“Euroclear”), (a “Book-Entry Note”) or a certificate delivered to the holder thereof or a person designated by such holder (a “Certificated Note”). Each Global Security will be delivered either to the Trustee, as agent for DTC, or to a common depositary (the “Common Depositary”) for Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or Euroclear. Except in limited circumstances, an owner of a Book-Entry Note will not be entitled to receive a Certificated Note.

Book-Entry Notes will be issued in accordance with the administrative procedures set forth in Part I hereof, as they may subsequently be modified as the result of changes in the operating procedures of DTC, Clearstream, Luxembourg and Euroclear, as the case may be, and Certificated Notes will be issued in accordance with the administrative procedures set forth in Part II hereof. Indexed Notes and Dual Currency Notes will only be issued as Certificated Notes. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Indentures or the Notes shall be used herein as therein defined.

B-1

In case of any conflict between these Administrative Procedures and the Agreement or the Indentures, the terms of the Agreement or the Indentures, respectively, shall govern.

Part I. ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES FOR BOOK-ENTRY NOTES

In connection with the qualification of the Book-Entry Notes for eligibility in the book-entry systems maintained by DTC, Clearstream, Luxembourg and Euroclear, the Trustee will perform the custodial, document control and administrative functions described below, including, (1) in the case of Book-Entry Notes held through DTC (“DTC Book-Entry Notes”), in accordance with its respective obligations under a Letter of Representations from the Company and the Trustee to DTC, dated as of November 24, 2008 (the “Letter of Representations”), and its obligations as a participant in DTC and (2) in the case of Notes held through Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or Euroclear, in its capacity as Common Depositary.

Issuance:	On any date of settlement (as defined under “Settlement” below) for one or more Book-Entry Notes, the Company will issue a single global security in fully registered form without coupons (a “Global Security”) representing all such Notes that have the same Purchase Price, Settlement Date, Maturity Date, redemption or repayment provisions, Interest Payment Dates, Original Issue Date, original issue discount provisions (if any), and, in the case of Fixed Rate Notes, Interest Rate, modified payment upon acceleration (if any), amortization schedule (if any) or, in the case of Floating Rate Notes, Initial Interest Rate, Interest Payment Dates, Interest Payment Period, Calculation Agent, Base Rate, Index Maturity, Interest Reset Period, Interest Reset Dates, Spread or Spread Multiplier (if any), Alternative Rate Event Spread (if any), Minimum Interest Rate (if any) and Maximum Interest Rate (if any) and, in each case, any other relevant terms (collectively “Terms”). If DTC Book-Entry Notes having an aggregate principal amount in excess of U.S. $500,000,000 would, but for the preceding sentence, be represented by a single Global Security, then one Global Security will be issued to represent each U.S. $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of such DTC Book-Entry Notes and an additional Global Security will be issued to represent any remaining principal amount of such DTC Book-Entry Notes. Each Global Security will be dated and issued as of the date of its authentication by the Trustee. Each Global Security will bear an “Interest Accrual Date,” which will be (i) with respect to an original Global Security (or any portion thereof), its original issuance date and (ii) with respect to any Global Security (or any portion thereof) issued subsequently upon exchange of a Global Security, or in lieu of a destroyed, lost or stolen Global Security, the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for on the predecessor Global Security or Securities (or if no such payment or provision has been made, the original issuance date of the predecessor Global Security), regardless of the date of authentication of such subsequently issued Global Security. No Global Security will represent any Certificated Note.

Identification Numbers:	DTC Book-Entry Notes. The Company has arranged with the CUSIP Service Bureau of Standard & Poor’s Corporation (the “CUSIP Service Bureau”) for the reservation of a series of approximately 900 CUSIP numbers (including tranche numbers) for assignment to the Global Securities representing the DTC Book-Entry Notes. The Company has obtained from the CUSIP Service Bureau a written list of each series of reserved CUSIP numbers and has delivered to the Trustee and DTC the written list of 900 CUSIP numbers of such series. The Trustee will assign CUSIP numbers to Global Securities as described below under Settlement Procedure “B”. DTC will notify the CUSIP Service Bureau periodically of the CUSIP numbers that the Trustee has assigned to Global Securities. At anytime when fewer than 100 of the reserved CUSIP numbers of either series remain unassigned to Global Securities, the Trustee shall so advise the Company and, if it deems necessary, the Company will reserve additional CUSIP numbers for assignment to Global Securities representing DTC Book-Entry Notes. Upon obtaining such additional CUSIP numbers, the Company shall deliver a list of such additional CUSIP numbers to the Trustee and DTC.

	Other Book-Entry Notes. The Trustee will telephone each of Clearstream, Luxembourg and Euroclear with a request for an ISIN number and Common Code for the Book-Entry Notes represented by each Global Security deposited with the Common Depositary in accordance with Settlement Procedure “B” below.

Registration:	Each Global Security will be registered either, in the case of Notes to be held through DTC, in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC, or, in the case of Notes to be held through Clearstream, Luxembourg

B-2

	and/or Euroclear, in the name of The Bank of New York Depository (Nominees) Limited (or such other entity designated by the Common Depositary), as nominee for the Common Depositary, in each case on the security register maintained under the applicable Indenture. The beneficial owner of a Book-Entry Note (or one or more indirect participants in the relevant clearing system designated by such owner) will designate one or more participants in DTC, Clearstream, Luxembourg or Euroclear, as the case may be (the “Participants”), to act as agent or agents for such owner with respect to such Note in connection with the book-entry system maintained by such clearing system, and such clearing system will record in book-entry form, in accordance with instructions provided by each such Participant, a credit balance with respect to such beneficial owner in such Note in the account of such Participants. The ownership interest of such beneficial owner in such Note will be recorded through the records of such Participants or through the separate records of such Participants and one or more indirect participants in such clearing system.

Transfers:	Transfers of a Book-Entry Note will be accompanied by book entries made by the relevant clearing system and, in turn, by Participants (and in certain cases, one or more indirect participants) acting on behalf of beneficial transferors and transferees of such Note.

Exchanges:	The Trustee may deliver to the relevant clearing system and, in the case of DTC Book-Entry Notes, the CUSIP Service Bureau at any time a written notice of consolidation specifying (i) the CUSIP numbers, ISIN numbers and Common Codes of two or more Outstanding Global Securities that represent Book-Entry Notes having the same Terms and for which interest has been paid to the same date, (ii) a date, occurring at least thirty days after such written notice is delivered and at least thirty days before the next Interest Payment Date for such Book-Entry Notes, on which such Global Securities shall be exchanged for a single replacement Global Security and (iii) a new CUSIP number and/or ISIN number or Common Code to be assigned to such replacement Global Security. Upon receipt of such a notice, each relevant clearing system will send to its Participants (including the Trustee) a written reorganization notice to the effect that such exchange will occur on such date. Prior to the specified exchange date, in the case of DTC Book-Entry Notes, the Trustee will deliver to the CUSIP Service Bureau a written notice setting forth such exchange date and the new CUSIP number and stating that, as of such exchange date, the CUSIP numbers of the Global Securities to be exchanged will no longer be valid. On the specified exchange date, the Trustee will exchange such Global Securities for a single Global Security bearing the new CUSIP number and/or ISIN number or Common Code and a new Interest Accrual Date, and the CUSIP numbers, if any, of the exchanged Global Securities will, in accordance with CUSIP Service Bureau procedures, be cancelled and not immediately reassigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Global Securities registered in the name of Cede & Co., if the Global Securities to be exchanged exceed U.S. $500,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, one Global Security will be authenticated and issued to represent each U.S. $500,000,000 principal amount of the exchanged Global Security and an additional Global Security will be authenticated and issued to represent any remaining principal amount of such Global Securities (see “Denominations” below).

Maturities:	Each Book-Entry Note will mature on a date from nine months to 60 years from its date of issue.

Notice of Redemption and Repayment Dates:	The Trustee will give notice prior to each redemption date or repayment date (as specified in the Note), if any, (1) in the case of Notes held through DTC, to DTC at the time and in the manner set forth in the Letter of Representations; and (2) in the case of Notes held through Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or Euroclear, to Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or Euroclear through the Common Depositary at the time and in the manner specified by such clearing systems from time to time.

Denominations:	Book-Entry Notes will be issued in minimum principal amounts of U.S. $1,000 or an integral multiple of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement. Global Securities representing DTC Book-Entry Notes will be issued in principal amounts not in excess of U.S. $500,000,000. If DTC Book-Entry Notes having an aggregate principal amount in excess of U.S. $500,000,000 would, but for the preceding sentence, be represented by a single Global Security, then one Global Security will be issued to represent each U.S. $500,000,000 principal amount of such DTC Book-Entry Note or Notes and an additional Global Security will be issued to represent any remaining principal amount of such DTC Book-Entry Note or Notes. In such a case, each of the Global Securities representing such DTC Book-Entry Note or Notes shall be assigned the same CUSIP number.

B-3

Interest:	General. Interest on each Book-Entry Note will accrue from the Interest Accrual Date of the Global Security representing such Note. Each payment of interest on a Book-Entry Note will include interest accrued to but excluding the Interest Payment Date; provided that in the case of Floating Rate Notes that reset daily or weekly, interest payments will include interest accrued to and including the Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date, except that at maturity or earlier redemption or repayment, the interest payable will include interest accrued to, but excluding, the maturity date or the date of redemption or repayment, as the case may be. Interest payable at the maturity or upon redemption or repayment of a Book-Entry Note will be payable to the person to whom the principal of such Note is payable. In the case of DTC Book-Entry Notes, Standard & Poor’s Corporation will use the information received in the pending deposit message described under Settlement Procedure “C” below in order to include the amount of any interest payable and certain other information regarding the related Global Security in the appropriate weekly bond report published by Standard & Poor’s Corporation.

	Record Dates. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement, the Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date.

	Fixed Rate Book-Entry Notes. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement, interest payments on Fixed Rate Book-Entry Notes, other than Amortizing Notes, will be made semiannually on March 15 and September 15 of each year, (or, if so indicated in such Note, annually on September 15 of each year) and at maturity or upon any earlier redemption or repayment and Book Entry Amortizing Notes will pay principal and interest semiannually each March 15 and September 15, or quarterly each March 15, June 15, September 15, and December 15, and at maturity (or any redemption or repayment date); provided, however, that in the case of a Fixed Rate Book-Entry Note issued between a Record Date and an Interest Payment Date, the first interest payment will be made on the Interest Payment Date following the next succeeding Record Date.

	Floating Rate Book-Entry Notes. Interest payments will be made on Floating Rate Book-Entry Notes monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually. Unless otherwise agreed upon, interest will be payable, in the case of Floating Rate Book-Entry Notes with a daily, weekly or monthly Interest Reset Date, on the third Wednesday of each month or on the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December, as specified pursuant to Settlement Procedure “A” below; in the case of Notes with a quarterly Interest Reset Date, on the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year; in the case of Notes with a semi-annual Interest Reset Date, on the third Wednesday of the two months specified pursuant to Settlement Procedure “A” below; and in the case of Notes with an annual Interest Reset Date, on the third Wednesday of the month specified pursuant to Settlement Procedure “A” below; provided however, that if an Interest Payment Date for Floating Rate Book-Entry Notes (other than an Interest Payment Date that falls on a Maturity Date or a redemption or repayment date) would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day with respect to such Floating Rate Book-Entry Notes, such Interest Payment Date will be the next succeeding Business Day with respect to such Floating Rate Book-Entry Notes, except in the case of a LIBOR Note if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day; and provided, further, that in the case of a Floating Rate Book-Entry Note issued between a Record Date and an Interest Payment Date, the first interest payment will be made on the Interest Payment Date following the next succeeding Record Date.

	Notice of Interest Payment and Record Dates. On the first Business Day of January, April, July and October of each year, the Trustee will deliver to the Company and DTC a written list of Record Dates and Interest Payment Dates that will occur with respect to DTC Book-Entry Notes during the six-month period beginning on such first Business Day.

Calculation of Interest:	Fixed Rate Book-Entry Notes. Interest on Fixed Rate Book-Entry Notes (including interest for partial periods) will be calculated on the basis of a year of twelve thirty-day months unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

	Floating Rate Book-Entry Notes. Interest rates on Floating Rate Book-Entry Notes will be determined as

B-4

	set forth in the form of Notes. Interest on Floating Rate Book-Entry Notes will be calculated on the basis of actual days elapsed and a year of 360 days except that in the case of Treasury Rate Notes, interest will be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days in the year unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

Payments of Principal and Interest:	Payments of Interest. Not later than three days prior to the Interest Payment Date, the Trustee or the Common Depositary, as applicable, will deliver to the Company and the relevant clearing systems a written notice specifying by CUSIP number and/or ISIN number or Common Code the amount of interest to be paid on each Global Security other than an Amortizing Note on the following Interest Payment Date (other than an Interest Payment Date coinciding with maturity or any earlier redemption or repayment date) and the total of such amounts. In the case of DTC Book-Entry Notes, DTC will confirm the amount payable on each such Global Security on such Interest Payment Date by reference to the daily bond reports published by Standard & Poor’s Corporation. In the case of Amortizing Notes that are DTC Book-Entry Notes, the Trustee will provide separate written notice to DTC prior to each Interest Payment Date at the time and in the manner set forth in the Letter of Representations. The Company will pay to the Trustee, as paying agent, the total amount of interest due on such Interest Payment Date (and, in the case of an Amortizing Note, principal and interest) (other than at maturity), and the Trustee will pay the appropriate amounts to DTC and to, or to the order of, the Common Depositary based on their respective holdings of the related Global Securities at the times and in the manner set forth below under “Manner of Payment.” If any Interest Payment Date for a Fixed Rate Book-Entry Note is not a Business Day, the payment due on such day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and no interest shall accrue on such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date.

	Payments at Maturity or Upon Redemption or Repayment. On or about the first Business Day of each month, the Trustee will deliver to the Company and the relevant clearing systems a written list of principal and interest to be paid on each Global Security other than an Amortizing Note maturing either at maturity or on a redemption or repayment date in the following month. The Company and, in the case of DTC Book-Entry Notes, DTC, will confirm the amounts of such principal and interest payments with respect to each such Global Security on or about the fifth Business Day preceding the Maturity Date or redemption or repayment date of such Global Security. In the case of Amortizing Notes that are DTC Book-Entry Notes, the Trustee will provide separate written notice to DTC prior to the Maturity Date and any redemption or repayment date, as the case may be, at the times and in the manner set forth in the Letter of Representations. The Company will pay to the Trustee, as the paying agent, the principal amount of such Global Security, together with interest due at such Maturity Date or redemption or repayment date. The Trustee will pay the appropriate amounts to DTC and to, or to the order of, the Common Depositary based on their respective holdings of the related Global Securities at the times and in the manner set forth below under “Manner of Payment.” If any Maturity Date or redemption or repayment date of a Global Security representing Book-Entry Notes is not a Business Day, the payment due on such day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with respect to such Note (and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period), except that, in the case of Book-Entry LIBOR Note, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date or redemption or repayment date shall be the immediately preceding day that is a Business Day with respect to such Book-Entry LIBOR Note. Promptly after payment to DTC or to, or to the order of, the Common Depositary, as the case may be, of the principal and interest due on the Maturity Date or redemption or repayment date of such Global Security, the Trustee will cancel such Global Security in accordance with the terms of the applicable Indenture and deliver it to the Company with a certificate of cancellation.

	Manner of Payment. The total amount of any principal and interest due on Global Securities on any Interest Payment Date or at maturity or upon redemption or repayment shall be paid by the Company to the Trustee in funds available for immediate use by the Trustee not later than 9:30 A.M. (local time) on such date. Payment shall be made prior to 10:00 A.M. (local time) or as soon thereafter as practicable, on each Maturity Date or redemption or repayment date or, if either such date is not a Business Day, as soon as possible thereafter, and the Trustee will pay by separate wire transfer to, or to the order of, the Common Depositary or to DTC, as the case may be (in the case of payments to DTC, using Fed wire message entry instructions in a form previously specified by DTC to an account at the Federal Reserve Bank of New

B-5

	York previously specified by DTC), in funds available for immediate use by the Common Depositary or DTC, as the case may be, each payment of principal (together with interest thereon) due on Global Securities on any Maturity Date or redemption or repayment date. On each Interest Payment Date or, if any such date is not a Business Day, as soon as possible thereafter, interest payments and, in the case of Amortizing Notes, interest and principal payments shall be made to, or to the order of, the Common Depositary or to DTC, as the case may be, in same day funds in accordance with existing arrangements between the Trustee, the Common Depositary and DTC. Thereafter, on each such date (i) the Common Depositary will credit, or procure the credit to, the accounts of Clearstream, Luxembourg and Euroclear, in accordance with their respective operating procedures then in effect, the proportionate amounts in funds available for immediate use attributable to the respective holdings of their Participants of the Book-Entry Notes represented by such Global Securities and (ii) DTC will pay, in accordance with its operating procedures then in effect, such amounts in funds available for immediate use to the respective Participants in whose names the DTC Book-Entry Notes represented by such Global Securities are recorded in the book-entry system maintained by DTC. Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for the payment by the Common Depositary (or the Trustee acting on its behalf) or DTC to such Participants of the principal of and interest on the Book-Entry Notes.

	Withholding Taxes. The amount of any taxes required under applicable law to be withheld from any interest payment on a Book-Entry Note will be determined and withheld by the Participant, indirect participant in DTC, Clearstream, Luxembourg or Euroclear, as the case may be, or other person responsible for forwarding payments directly to the beneficial owner of such Note.

Preparation of Pricing Supplement:	If any order to purchase a Book-Entry Note is accepted by or on behalf of the Company, the Company will prepare a pricing supplement (hereinafter, each a “Pricing Supplement”) reflecting the terms of such Note and will arrange to file such Pricing Supplement with the Commission in accordance with the applicable paragraph of Rule 424 under the Act. The relevant Agent will cause such Pricing Supplement to be delivered to the purchaser of the Note. In each instance that a Pricing Supplement is prepared, the Agents receiving such Pricing Supplement will affix the Pricing Supplement to Prospectuses prior to their use. Outdated Pricing Supplements, and the Prospectuses to which they are attached (other than those retained for files), will be destroyed.

Settlement:	The receipt by the Company of immediately available funds in payment for a Book-Entry Note and the authentication and issuance of the Global Security representing such Note shall constitute “settlement” with respect to such Note. All orders accepted by the Company will be settled on the fifth Business Day pursuant to the timetable for settlement set forth below unless the Company and the purchaser agree to settlement on another day, which shall be no earlier than the next Business Day.

Settlement Procedures:	Settlement Procedures with regard to each Book-Entry Note sold by the Company to or through an Agent shall be as follows:

A.	The relevant Agent will advise the Company by telephone that such Note is a Book-Entry Note and of the following settlement information:
	1.	Principal amount, Specified Currency and Series.

B-8

	Settlement

	A.	11:00 A.M. on the sale date

	If a sale is to be settled more than one Business Day after the sale date, Settlement Procedures “A”, “B” and “C” shall be completed as soon as practicable but no later than 11:00 A.M., 12 Noon and 2:00 P.M., respectively, on the first Business Day after the sale date. If the Initial Interest Rate for a Floating Rate Book-Entry Note has not been determined at the time that Settlement Procedure “A” is completed, Settlement Procedure “B” and “C” shall be completed as soon as such rate has been determined but no later than 12 Noon and 2:00 P.M., respectively, on the second Business Day before the settlement date. In the case of Book-Entry Notes other than DTC Book-Entry Notes, Settlement Procedure “D”, “E” and “F” shall be completed at the corresponding times on the Business Day before the settlement date. Settlement Procedure “H” is subject to extension in accordance with any extension of Fed wire closing deadlines and in the other events specified in the operating procedures in effect on the settlement date. In the case of Book-Entry Notes, other than DTC Book-Entry Notes, in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars where same day settlement is ordinarily not possible, Settlement Procedure “I” shall be completed at the corresponding time on the Business Day before the settlement date. In the case of DTC Book-Entry Notes, if settlement of a Book-Entry Note is rescheduled or cancelled, the Trustee, after receiving notice from the Company or the Agent, will deliver to DTC, through DTC’s Participant Terminal System, a cancellation message to such effect by no later than 2:00 P.M. on the Business Day immediately preceding the scheduled settlement date.

Failure to Settle:	DTC Book-Entry Notes. If the Trustee fails to enter a deliver order with respect to a Book-Entry Note pursuant to Settlement Procedure “F”, the Trustee may deliver to DTC, through DTC’s Participant Terminal System, as soon as practicable a withdrawal message instructing DTC to debit such Note to the Trustee’s participant account, provided that the Trustee’s participant account contains a principal amount of the Global Security representing such Note that is at least equal to the principal amount to be debited. If a withdrawal message is processed with respect to all the Book-Entry Notes represented by a Global Security, the Trustee will mark such Global Security “cancelled,” make appropriate entries in the Trustee’s records and send such cancelled Global Security to the Company. The CUSIP number assigned to such Global Security shall, in accordance with CUSIP Service Bureau procedures, be cancelled and not immediately reassigned. If a withdrawal message is processed with respect to one or more, but not all, of the Book-Entry Notes represented by a Global Security, the Trustee will exchange such Global Security for two Global Securities, one of which shall represent such Book-Entry Note or Notes and shall be cancelled immediately after issuance and the other of which shall represent the remaining Book-Entry Notes previously represented by the surrendered Global Security and shall bear the CUSIP number of the surrendered Global Security.

	If the purchase price for any Book-Entry Note is not timely paid to the Participants with respect to such Note by the beneficial purchaser thereof (or a person, including an indirect participant in DTC, acting on behalf of such purchaser), such Participants and, in turn, the relevant Agent may enter deliver orders through DTC’s Participant Terminal System reversing the orders entered pursuant to Settlement Procedures “F” and “G”, respectively. Thereafter, the Trustee will deliver the withdrawal message and take the related actions described in the preceding paragraph.

	Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon any failure to settle with respect to a Book-Entry Note, DTC may take any actions in accordance with its operating procedures then in effect.

	In the event of a failure to settle with respect to one or more, but not all, of the Book-Entry Notes to have

B-9

	been represented by a Global Security, the Trustee will provide, in accordance with Settlement Procedures “D” and “F”, for the authentication and issuance of a Global Security representing the Book-Entry Notes to be represented by such Global Security and will make appropriate entries in its records.

	Other Book-Entry Notes. If the Agent shall have advanced its own funds for payment against subsequent receipt of funds from a purchaser and such purchaser shall fail to make payment for a Note, the Agent will promptly notify the Company, the Trustee, the Common Depositary, Clearstream, Luxembourg and Euroclear, in each case by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing (but no later than the next Business Day). In such event, the Company shall promptly instruct the Trustee to cancel such purchaser’s interest in the Global Security representing such Note. Upon confirmation from the Trustee in writing (which may be given by telex or telecopy) that the Trustee has cancelled such purchaser’s interest in the Global Security and confirmation from the Agent in writing (which may be given by telex or telecopy) that the Agent has not received payment from such purchaser for the Note, the Company will promptly pay to the Agent an amount in immediately available funds equal to the amount previously paid by the Agent in respect of such Note. Such payment will be made on the settlement date, if possible, and in any event not later than 12:00 Noon (local time) on the Business Day following the settlement date. The Trustee, Common Depositary, Clearstream, Luxembourg and Euroclear will make or cause to be made such revisions or notations to the Global Security and their other records as are necessary to reflect the cancellation of such portion of the Global Security.

Certificated Notes presented for payment to the Trustee at maturity or upon redemption or repayment will be cancelled by the Trustee and delivered to the Company with a certificate of cancellation. All interest payments on a Certificated Note (other than interest due at maturity or upon redemption or repayment) will be made by check drawn on the Trustee (or another person appointed by the Trustee) and mailed by the Trustee to the person entitled thereto as provided in such Note and the applicable Indenture; provided , however , that the holder of $5,000,000 or more of Notes having the same Interest Payment Date will be entitled to receive payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Following each Record Date, the Trustee will furnish the Company with a list of interest payments to be made on the following Interest Payment Date for each Certificated Note and in total for all Certificated Notes. Interest at maturity or upon redemption or repayment will be payable to the person to whom the payment of principal is payable. The Trustee will provide monthly to the Company lists of principal and interest, to the extent ascertainable, to be paid on Certificated Notes maturing or to be redeemed in the next month.

Outdated Pricing Supplements, and the Prospectuses to which they are attached (other than those retained for files), will be destroyed.

Settlement:	The receipt by the Company of immediately available funds in exchange for an authenticated Certificated Note delivered to the relevant Agent and such Agent’s delivery of such Note against receipt of immediately available funds shall constitute “settlement” with respect to such Note. All offers accepted by the Company will be settled on or before the fifth Business Day next succeeding the date of acceptance pursuant to the timetable for settlement set forth below, unless the Company and the purchaser agree to settlement on another date.
