ARTICLE 4
DISTRIBUTIONS; REDEMPTION

Section 4.01. Distributions.

(a) The Securities represent undivided beneficial interests in the Trust Property, and Distributions will be made on the Securities at the rate and on the dates that payments of interest (including Additional Interest, if any) are made on the Trust Debentures. Accordingly:


	(i) Distributions on the Securities shall be cumulative, and will accumulate whether or not there are funds of the Trust available for the payment of Distributions. Distributions shall accumulate from and including November 15, 2009 and, except in the event (and to the extent) that GE Capital exercises its right to defer the payment of interest on the Debentures pursuant to the Indenture, shall be payable, in respect of each Distribution Period on each Distribution Payment Date through and including the Maturity Date for the Debentures. Distributions on the Securities shall be payable on the Liquidation Amount of the Securities at the rate per annum equal to the then applicable rate of interest on the Trust Debentures. The amount of Distributions payable for any period during the Fixed Rate Period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The amount of Distributions payable for any period during the Floating Rate Period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant Distribution Period.

	(ii) On each Distribution Payment Date, the Holders will be entitled to receive Distributions in an amount equal to the amount of interest (including Additional Interest, if any) accrued on a Like Amount of Trust Debentures. In the event (and to the extent) that GE Capital exercises its right under the Indenture to defer the payment of interest on the Debentures, Distributions on the Securities shall be deferred for so long as the period of deferral on the Debentures continues but shall continue to accumulate.

	(iii) If any date on which a Distribution is otherwise payable on the Securities in respect of interest accruing on the Trust Debentures during the Fixed Rate Period is not a Business Day, then the payment of such Distribution shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay, with the same force and effect as if made on the date on which such payment was originally payable. If any date on which a Distribution is otherwise payable on the Securities in respect of interest accruing on the Debentures during the Floating Rate Period is not a Business Day (other than any such date that is also a Redemption Date for the Securities), then the related Distribution Payment Date will be the next succeeding Business Day unless such Business Day is in the next calendar month in which case such Distribution Payment Date shall be the Business Day immediately preceding such day.


	(iv) Distributions on the Securities shall be made by the Paying Agent on behalf of the Property Trustee from the Payment Account and shall be payable on each Distribution Payment Date only to the extent that the Trust has received payments of interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Trust Debentures and such funds are available in the Payment Account.

(b) Distributions on the Securities with respect to a Distribution Payment Date shall be payable to the Holders thereof as they appear on the Securities Register for the Securities at the close of business on the relevant record date, for that Distribution Payment Date, subject to Section 4.02(d). As long as the Trust Securities are issued in the form of one or more Global Trust Securities, the record dates for the Trust Securities will be one Business Day prior to the relevant Distribution Payment Date. If the Trust Securities are not issued in the form of one or more Global Trust Securities, the record date will be the 15th calendar day prior to the relevant Distribution Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day).

(c) Distributions payable on any Securities that are not punctually paid on an applicable Distribution Payment Date will cease to be payable to the Person in whose name such Securities are registered on the relevant record date, and such defaulted Distribution will instead be payable to the Person in whose name such Securities are registered on the special record date or other specified date for determining Holders entitled to such defaulted Distributions. Such special record date shall be established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Trust to the Holders of Securities not less than 15 days preceding such special record date, such special record date to be not less than five days preceding the date of payment of such defaulted Distribution.

(d) If Distributions on the Securities are deferred in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01(a)(ii), accumulated and unpaid Distributions will be paid on the Securities when, and in the same amounts, as accrued and unpaid interest, including Additional Interest, is paid on a Like Amount of Trust Debentures. Deferred Distributions payable on a Distribution Payment Date at the end of the applicable Extension Period shall be paid to Holders in whose names Outstanding Securities are registered at the close of business on the record date immediately prior to such Distribution Payment Date.

Section 4.02. Redemption.

(a) On each Trust Debenture Redemption Date and on the Maturity Date on which Trust Debentures shall be redeemed or repaid by GE Capital in any aggregate principal amount, the Trust will be required to redeem a Like Amount of Securities at a redemption price per Security equal to the Redemption Price. Any redemption of the Securities in connection with a redemption of the Trust Debentures at the option of GE Capital prior to the Maturity Date of the Debentures will be subject to any then required approval by any Applicable Regulatory Authority.

(b) Notice of redemption shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at such Holder’s address appearing in the Security Register. All notices of redemption shall state:


	(i) the Redemption Date;

	(ii) the Redemption Price, or if the Redemption Price cannot be calculated prior to the time the notice is required to be sent, the method by which the Redemption Price shall be calculated together with a statement that the actual Redemption Price will be calculated no later than the third Business Day prior to the Redemption Date;

	(iii) if less than all the Outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the identification and the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the particular Securities to be redeemed;

	(iv) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and that Distributions thereon will cease to accumulate on and after said date, except as provided in Section 4.02(g) below; and

	(v) in the case of the Common Securities and, if the Trust Securities are not then issued in the form of one or more Global Trust Securities, the Trust Securities, the place or places where certificates evidencing Common Securities and, if applicable, the Trust Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price.

The Trust, in issuing the Trust Securities, may use “CUSIP” or “ISIN” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Property Trustee shall indicate the “CUSIP” or “ISIN” numbers of the Trust Securities in notices of redemption and related materials as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Trust Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption and related materials.

(c) Each Security redeemed on any Redemption Date shall be redeemed at a redemption price equal to the Redemption Price. Redemptions of the Securities shall be made and the Redemption Price shall be payable on each Redemption Date only to the extent that the Trust has cash in an amount equal to the Redemption Price then on hand and available in the Payment Account for the payment of such Redemption Price.

(d) If the Property Trustee gives a notice of redemption in respect of any Securities, then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Redemption Date, subject to Section 4.02(c), the Property Trustee will:


	(i) with respect to Trust Securities represented by Global Trust Securities, irrevocably deposit with the Clearing Agency for such Trust Securities, to the extent available therefor, the applicable Redemption Price and will give such Clearing Agency irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to the Holders of the Trust Securities;

	(ii) with respect to Definitive Trust Securities and the Common Securities, irrevocably deposit with the Paying Agent, to the extent available therefor, the applicable Redemption Price and will give the Paying Agent irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to the Holders of the Securities upon surrender of the certificates evidencing their Securities.

In the event that the Redemption Date for any Securities shall be a Distribution Payment Date, the related Distribution will be payable to the Person to whom the Liquidation Amount or other amount in respect thereof is payable.

(e) If notice of redemption shall have been given and the Redemption Price deposited as required, then upon the date of such deposit, all rights of Holders holding Securities so called for redemption will cease, except the right of such Holders to receive the Redemption Price and any Distribution payable in respect of the Securities on or prior to the Redemption Date, but without interest, and such Securities will cease to be outstanding.

(f) In the event that any date on which any Redemption Price is payable is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), with the same force and effect as if made on such date.

(g) In the event that payment of the Redemption Price in respect of any Securities called for redemption is improperly withheld or refused and not paid by the Trust because the Sponsor has not paid the corresponding redemption amount on the Debentures, Distributions on such Securities will continue to accumulate, as set forth in Section 4.01, from the Redemption Date originally established by the Trust for such Securities to the date such Redemption Price is actually paid, in which case the actual payment date will be the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price.

(h) Except as set forth in Section 4.03(a), if fewer than all the Outstanding Securities are to be redeemed on a Redemption Date, then the aggregate Liquidation Amount of Securities to be redeemed shall be allocated pro rata to the Common Securities and the Trust Securities based upon the relative Liquidation Amounts of such classes. The particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected on a pro rata basis based upon their respective Liquidation Amounts not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Property Trustee from the Outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption or by any other method (including by lot) the Property Trustee deems fair and appropriate, provided that so long as the Trust Securities are then held in book-entry form, such selection shall be made by the Clearing Agency in accordance with the customary procedures for the Clearing Agency for the Trust Securities. The Property Trustee shall promptly notify the Securities Registrar in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the Liquidation Amount thereof to be redeemed. For all purposes of this Trust Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of Securities that has been or is to be redeemed. In the event that the Trust Securities are redeemed in part, the unredeemed portion of the Trust Securities must remain in an authorized denomination.

(i) For so long as the Trust Debentures are held by the Trust, GE Capital shall not redeem any Trust Debentures pursuant to its Optional Redemption Right at any time prior to the fifth anniversary of the date hereof. With the consent of each Applicable Regulatory Authority then requiring such consent,

this Trust Agreement may be amended by the Sponsor to delete the undertaking specified in the preceding sentence without the consent of holders of the Trust Securities or any other Person.

(j) If fewer than all of the outstanding Trust Debentures are to be redeemed, before the Trust Debenture Redemption Date, GE Capital shall acquire, and shall cause any of its Affiliates that has acquired Common Securities pursuant to Section 5.11 to acquire, subject to the provisions of the Replacement Covenant, sufficient Trust Securities in the public market so that after the redemption, the aggregate Liquidation Amount of Common Securities and Trust Securities held by GE Capital or such Affiliate, as the case may be, will be equal to at least the $5,000 minimum denomination of the Debentures. If GE Capital transfers the Common Securities to an Affiliate as permitted by Section 5.11 after a partial redemption of Trust Debentures, GE Capital shall cause such Affiliate to acquire, subject to the provisions of the Replacement Covenant, sufficient Trust Securities so that immediately after such transfer, the aggregate Liquidation Amount of Common Securities and Trust Securities held by such Affiliate will be equal to at least the $5,000 minimum denomination of the Debentures.

Section 4.03. Subordination of Common Securities.

(a) Payment of Distributions (including the amount thereof attributable to Additional Interest) on, the Redemption Price of, and the Liquidation Distribution in respect of the Securities, as applicable, shall be made, subject to Section 4.02(h), pro rata among the Common Securities and the Trust Securities based on their relative Liquidation Amounts; provided, however, that if on any Distribution Payment Date, Redemption Date or Liquidation Date a Trust Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no payment of any Distribution (including any amount thereof attributable to Additional Interest) on, Redemption Price of, or Liquidation Distribution in respect of any Common Security, and no other payment on account of the redemption, liquidation or other acquisition of Common Securities, shall be made unless payment in full in cash of all accumulated and unpaid Distributions (including the amount thereof attributable to Additional Interest) on all Outstanding Trust Securities for all Distribution periods terminating on or prior thereto, or in the case of payment of the Redemption Price the full amount of such Redemption Price on all Outstanding Trust Securities then called for redemption, or in the case of payment of the Liquidation Distribution the full amount of such Liquidation Distribution on all Outstanding Trust Securities, shall have been made or provided for, and all funds immediately available to the Property Trustee shall first be applied to the payment in full in cash of all Distributions (including the amount thereof attributable to Additional Interest) on, the Redemption Price of, or the Liquidation Distribution in respect of, the Trust Securities then due and payable. If upon liquidation, the Trust cannot pay the full amount due on the Trust Securities and Common Securities because it has insufficient assets for payment, the amounts payable on the Securities will be allocated first, proportionately, to the Trust Securities and only thereafter to the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Common Securities.

(b) In the case of the occurrence of a Trust Event of Default, the Property Trustee shall not act on behalf of Holders of the Common Securities with respect to such Trust Event of Default under this Trust Agreement until the effect of such Trust Event of Default with respect to the Trust Securities has been cured, waived or otherwise eliminated. Until a Trust Event of Default has been so cured, waived or otherwise eliminated, the Property Trustee shall act solely

on behalf of the Holders of the Trust Securities and not on behalf of the Holders of the Common Securities.

Section 4.04. Payment Procedures for Trust Securities.

Payments of Distributions (including any portion thereof attributable to Additional Interest) in respect of the Trust Securities, subject to the next succeeding sentence, shall be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Securities Register or, if the Trust Securities are held by a Clearing Agency, such Distributions shall be made to the Clearing Agency in immediately available funds. A Holder of $1,000,000 or more in aggregate Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities may receive payments of cash Distributions (including the amounts thereof attributable to Additional Interest) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account with a financial institution in the United States upon written request to the Property Trustee not later than the 15th calendar day, whether or not a Business Day, before the relevant Distribution Payment Date.

such withholding taxes under the Indenture with respect to the Debentures) imposed on the Trust by the United States or any other taxing authority, in respect of which amounts were received from the Sponsor pursuant to Section 4.09(a)(vi).

	(v) the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the acquisition, financing, and disposition of Trust assets and the enforcement by the Property Trustee of the rights of the holders of the Trust Debentures; and

	(vi) any and all taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature (other than U.S. withholding taxes to the extent that GE Capital would not have been obligated to pay such withholding taxes under the Indenture with respect to the Debentures) imposed on the Trust by the United States, or any other taxing authority, with respect to the aforesaid debts, obligations, costs and expenses.

(b) GE Capital’s obligations under this Section 4.09 shall be for the benefit of, and shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be enforceable by, any Person to whom such debts, obligations and costs are owed (a “Creditor”) whether or not such Creditor has received notice hereof. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any such Creditor may enforce GE Capital’s obligations under this Section 4.09 directly against GE Capital and GE Capital

irrevocably waives any right or remedy to require that any such Creditor take any action against the Trust or any other Person before proceeding against GE Capital. GE Capital agrees to execute such additional agreements as may be necessary in order to give full effect to the provisions of this Section 4.09.

Section 5.02. Execution and Delivery of the Securities; Authentication.

(a) At the Issue Date, upon the written order of GE Capital executed by an Authorized Officer thereof and addressed to the Administrative Trustees and the Property Trustee, one or more of the Administrative Trustees shall execute (either manually or by facsimile) on behalf of the Trust certificates evidencing the Securities, in the aggregate Liquidation Amounts specified in Section 2.04 and Section 2.05 with respect to the Common Securities and the Trust Securities, respectively, and shall deliver such certificates to the Property Trustee. Thereupon, the Property Trustee shall, in accordance with such written order, authenticate the Securities and shall deliver the Securities in accordance with Sections 2.04 and 2.05.

(b) Each certificate evidencing the Securities shall be dated the date of its authentication. The certificates evidencing the Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of at least one Administrative Trustee. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust shall be validly issued and entitled to the benefits of this Trust Agreement, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the delivery of such certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of delivery of such certificates. A transferee of a certificate evidencing the Securities shall become a Holder, and shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Holder hereunder, upon due registration of such Securities in such transferee’s name pursuant to Section 5.05.

(c) No certificate evidencing the Securities shall be entitled to any benefit under this Trust Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the respective forms provided for in the forms attached as Exhibit B and Exhibit C and executed by the Property Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, and such certificate of authentication upon any Securities shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Securities have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 5.03. The Common Securities.

A single certificate evidencing $5,000 Liquidation Amount of Common Securities shall be issued to GE Capital on the date hereof in the form of a definitive certificate substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B. The Common Securities shall be issued in minimum denominations of $5,000 Liquidation Amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Section 5.04. The Trust Securities; Book-Entry Provisions for Global Trust Securities..

(a) The Trust Securities shall be issued in minimum denominations of $5,000 Liquidation Amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b) Upon their original issuance, the Trust Securities shall be issued in the form of one or more Global Trust Securities registered in the name of DTC, as Clearing Agency, or its nominee and deposited by the Exchange Agent with DTC or the Securities Registrar as custodian for DTC for credit by DTC to the respective accounts of the Owners thereof (or such other accounts as they may direct).

(c) No Global Trust Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for a Definitive Trust Security registered, and no transfer of a Global Trusty Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Clearing Agency for Global Trust Security or a nominee thereof unless (A) such Clearing Agency (i) has notified the Trust that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Clearing Agency for the Global Trust Securities and no successor Clearing Agency has been appointed within 90 days of this notice or (ii) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act at a time when the Clearing Agency is required to be so registered to act as clearing agent and no successor Clearing Agency has been appointed within 90 days after the Trust has learned that the Clearing Agency has ceased to be so registered, or (B) the Sponsor in its sole discretion (and subject to the procedures of the Clearing Agency) determines that any such Global Trust Securities will be so exchangeable or transferable. Upon the occurrence of any event specified in clause (A) or (B) above, the Property Trustee shall notify the Clearing Agency, and instruct the Clearing Agency to notify all Owners of beneficial interests in the Global Trust Securities, and the Administrative Trustees of the occurrence of such event and of the availability of the Definitive Trust Securities to Owners of such class or classes, as applicable, requesting the same.

(d) If any Global Trust Security is to be exchanged for Definitive Trust Securities or an interest in such Global Trust Security is to be cancelled in part, or if Definitive Trust Securities are to be exchanged in whole or in part for Global Trust Securities, then either (i) such Global Trust Security shall be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article 5 or (ii) the aggregate Liquidation Amount represented by such Global Trust Security shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Liquidation Amount represented by that portion of the Global Trust Security to be so exchanged or cancelled, or increased by an amount equal to the Liquidation Amount represented by such Definitive Trust Securities to be so exchanged for interests in the Global Trust Security represented thereby, as the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Securities Registrar, whereupon the Property Trustee, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, shall instruct the Clearing Agency or its authorized representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon surrender to

the Administrative Trustees or the Securities Registrar of the Global Trust Security or Securities by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions, the Administrative Trustees, or any one of them, shall execute the Definitive Trust Securities in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. None of the Securities Registrar, the Trustees or the Administrative Trustees shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Trust Securities, the Trustees shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Trust Securities as Holders. The Definitive Trust Securities shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or may be produced in any other manner as is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Trustees, as evidenced by the execution thereof by the Administrative Trustees or any one of them.

(e) Every certificate evidencing Trust Securities executed and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Trust Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Article 5 or otherwise, shall be executed and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Trust Security, unless the certificate evidencing such Trust Securities is registered in the name of a Person other than the Clearing Agency for such Global Trust Securities or a nominee thereof.

(f) The Clearing Agency or its nominee, as registered owner of a Global Trust Security, shall be the Holder of such Global Trust Security for all purposes under this Agreement and the Global Trust Security, and Owners with respect to the beneficial interests therein shall hold such interests pursuant to the Applicable Procedures. The Securities Registrar and the Trustees shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes of this Trust Agreement relating to the Global Trust Securities as the sole Holder of the Global Trust Security and shall have no obligations to the Owners thereof (including, without limitation, with respect to the payment of the Liquidation Amount of and Distributions on the book-entry interests in any Global Trust Security and the giving of notices to, and the receipt of instructions or directions by, Owners thereof). None of the Trustees nor the Securities Registrar shall have any liability in respect of any transfers effected by the Clearing Agency.

(g) The rights of the Owners of beneficial interests in a Global Trust Security shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law, the Applicable Procedures and agreements between such Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants. Pursuant to the Applicable Procedures, unless and until Definitive Trust Securities are issued pursuant to Section 5.04(c), the initial Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments on the Trust Securities to such Clearing Agency Participants, and none of the Sponsor or the Trustees shall have any responsibility or obligation with respect thereto.

Section 5.05. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Securities Certificates.

(a) The Property Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 5.09, a register or registers for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers and exchanges of Securities (the “Securities Register”) in which the registrar and transfer agent with respect to the Securities (the “Securities Registrar”), subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, shall provide for the registration of Trust

Securities and Common Securities (subject to Section 5.11 in the case of the Common Securities) and registration of transfers and exchanges of Securities as herein provided. The Person acting as the Property Trustee shall at all times also be the Securities Registrar.

(b) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Securities at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 5.09, the Administrative Trustees or any one of them shall execute and deliver to the Property Trustee, and the Property Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same class in authorized denominations of a like aggregate Liquidation Amount dated the date of execution by such Administrative Trustee or Trustees. At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for other Securities of the same class of any authorized Liquidation Amount and of like aggregate Liquidation Amount upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Administrative Trustees or any one of them shall execute and deliver to the Property Trustee, and the Property Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

(c) The Securities Registrar shall not be required, (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of selection for redemption of such Securities pursuant to Article 4 and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of the notice of redemption, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any such Security to be redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed.

(d) Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to an Administrative Trustee and the Securities Registrar duly executed by the Holder or its attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Security surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently disposed of by the Property Trustee in accordance with its customary practice.

(e) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Securities Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Securities.

Section 5.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Securities Certificates.


	(a) If

	(i) any mutilated certificate evidencing Securities shall be surrendered to the Securities Registrar, or if the Securities Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any such certificate, and

	(ii) there shall be delivered to the Securities Registrar and the Administrative Trustees such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless,

then, in the absence of notice that such Securities shall have been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Administrative Trustees, or any one of them, on behalf of the Trust, shall execute and make available for delivery, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen certificate evidencing Securities, a new certificate of like class, tenor and denomination.

(b) In connection with the issuance of any new certificate evidencing Securities under this Section 5.06, the Administrative Trustees or the Securities Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.

(c) Any duplicate certificate evidencing Securities issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Trust corresponding to that evidenced by the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate shall be found at any time.

(d) In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Administrative Trustees in their discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

(e) The provisions of this Section 5.06 are exclusive and will preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Securities.

Section 5.07. Persons Deemed Holders.

The Trustees and the Securities Registrar shall each treat the Person in whose name any certificate evidencing the Securities shall be registered in the Securities Register as the owner of such Securities for the purpose of receiving Distributions (subject to the record date provisions hereof) and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Trustees and the Securities Registrar shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

Section 5.08. Access to List of Holders’ Names and Addresses.

(a) Each of the Sponsor and any one of the Administrative Trustees will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Property Trustee:


	(i) on or before June 30 and December 31 of each year, a list, in such form as the Property Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Holders of Securities as of such date, and

	(ii) at such other times as the Property Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the Sponsor and the Administrative Trustees of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished, excluding from any such list names and addresses received by the Property Trustee at any time that it is acting as Securities Registrar.

(b) The Property Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Holders contained in the most recent list furnished to the

Property Trustee as provided in this Section 5.08 and the names and addresses of Holders received by the Property Trustee at any time that it is acting as Securities Registrar. The Property Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in this Section 5.08 upon receipt of a new list so furnished.

(c) Each Holder and each Owner shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold the Sponsor, the Property Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Administrative Trustees or the Securities Registrar accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived.

Section 5.09. Maintenance of Office or Agency.

The Property Trustee shall designate, with the consent of the Administrative Trustees, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, an office or offices or agency or agencies where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and requests to or upon the Trustees in respect of the Securities may be served. The Administrative Trustees initially designate the Property Trustee’s Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Department, as its office and agency for such purposes. The Property Trustee shall give prompt written notice to GE Capital, the Administrative Trustees and to the Holders of any change in the location of the Securities Register or any such office or agency.

Section 5.10. Appointment of Paying Agent.

The Paying Agent shall make Distributions to Holders from the Payment Account and shall report the amounts of such Distributions to the Property Trustee and the Administrative Trustees. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Payment Account solely for the purpose of making the Distributions referred to above. The Administrative Trustees may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent in their sole discretion. The Paying Agent shall initially be The Bank of New York Mellon. Any Person acting as Paying Agent shall be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon 30 days’ written notice to the Administrative Trustees and the Property Trustee. If The Bank of New York Mellon shall no longer be the Paying Agent or a successor Paying Agent shall resign or its authority to act be revoked, the Administrative Trustees shall appoint a successor (which shall be a bank or trust company) to act as Paying Agent. Such successor Paying Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Administrative Trustees shall execute and deliver to the Trustees an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustees that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Holders in trust for the benefit of the Holders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Holders. Any money deposited with any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of a Distribution on or the Redemption Price of any Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such Distribution or Redemption Price has become due and payable shall be paid to the Sponsor upon a request signed by an Authorized Officer thereof; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Sponsor for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustees or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Sponsor cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on

each Business Day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Sponsor. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the term “Business Day” shall be defined without reference to London, England. Upon removal of a Paying Agent such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Property Trustee. The provisions of Sections 8.01 (other than (c), (d), (e)(i) (except for (A) and (B)) and (e)(vi) thereof), 8.03 (except (g) and (j) thereof) and 8.06 herein shall apply to The Bank of New York Mellon also in its role as Paying Agent, for so long as The Bank of New York Mellon shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Trust Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

Section 5.11. Ownership of Common Securities by GE Capital.

At the Settlement Date, GE Capital shall acquire, and except as permitted in this Section 5.11, thereafter shall retain, beneficial and record ownership of the Common Securities. GE Capital shall not transfer the Common Securities except (i) in connection with a consolidation or merger of GE Capital into another Person, or any sale, conveyance, transfer or disposition by GE Capital of all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, in each case pursuant to Article Eleven of the Indenture, or (ii) to an Affiliate of GE Capital that is a United States Person in compliance with applicable law (including the Securities Act and applicable state securities and blue sky laws), provided in the case of clause (ii) that (a) GE Capital has obtained the written opinion of nationally recognized tax counsel that such transfer will not (x) result in a deemed exchange of the Trust Debentures for new Trust Debentures for U.S. federal income tax purposes; or (y) cause the Trust, or cause or permit the successor entity, if applicable, to be treated as other than a grantor trust or custodial arrangement for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (b) such transfer will not cause the Trust or successor entity to be required to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act, and (c) GE Capital transfers all the Common Securities it owns at the time of such transfer to only one of its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any attempted transfer of the Common Securities other than as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall be void. The Administrative Trustees shall cause each Common Securities Certificate issued to GE Capital to contain a legend substantially to the following effect: “THIS CERTIFICATE IS NOT TRANSFERABLE EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW AND SECTION 5.11 OF THE TRUST AGREEMENT.”

Section 5.12. Notices to Clearing Agency.

To the extent that a notice or other communication to the Holders is required under this Trust Agreement, for so long as the Trust Securities are issued in the form of one or more Global Trust Securities, the Trustees shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to the Clearing Agency, and shall have no obligations to the Owners.

Section 5.13. Rights of Holders.

(a) The legal title to the Trust Property is vested exclusively in the Property Trustee (in its capacity as such) in accordance with Section 2.09, and the Holders shall not have any right or title therein other than the undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Trust conferred by their Securities and they shall have no right to call for any partition or division of property, profits or rights of the Trust except as described below. The Securities shall be personal property giving only the rights specifically set forth therein and in this Trust Agreement. The Securities shall have no preemptive or similar rights and when issued and delivered to Holders against delivery of the Trust Debentures in accordance with the Exchange Offer will be fully paid and nonassessable by the Trust. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.09, the Holders of the Securities, in their capacities as such, shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to stockholders of private corporations for profit organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

(b) In accordance with the provisions of Section 9.02 hereof, upon the occurrence of a Debenture Event of Default, the Trust Securities shall automatically (and without the consent of any Applicable Regulatory Authority or requirement that the Trust first terminate) be exchanged for the Trust Debentures. Thereafter, the former Holders and Owners of Trust Securities may exercise their rights in respect of such Debenture Event of Default as holders of Debentures or beneficial owners of interests therein.

ARTICLE 6
RESTRICTION ON VOTING; REQUESTS BY HOLDERS

Section 6.01. Limitations on Voting Rights.

(a) Each Holder and Owner of Securities shall be deemed to acknowledge that irreparable damage would occur if any Holder or Owner of Securities should have the right to control the administration, operation or management of the Trust. Therefore, no Holder or Owner of Securities shall have the right to vote on any matter or the right to consent to the taking of any action by the Trust (including with respect to mergers, consolidations or conversions of the Trust, transfers to or domestication in any jurisdiction by the Trust, continuance of the Trust after its dissolution or any other matter that the Delaware Statutory Trust Act or other Delaware law pertaining to trusts provides default voting rights to beneficiaries of a trust) or in any manner otherwise directly control the administration, operation and management of the Trust, which rights are hereby waived or eliminated. The foregoing is not intended, nor shall it be construed, to eliminate, restrict or waive the right of a Holder or Owner of Securities to ▇▇▇ for breach of contract or breach of trust. Each Holder and Owner of Securities is deemed to acknowledge reliance by the other Holders and Owners of Securities upon the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.01(a). Without limiting the foregoing, nothing herein set forth, or contained in the terms of the Securities, shall be construed so as to constitute the Holders or Owners of Securities from time to time as partners or members of an association.

(b) So long as any Trust Debentures are held by the Property Trustee on behalf of the Trust, solely the Property Trustee, as Holder of the Trust Debentures within the meaning of the Indenture, may (but shall not be obligated to):


	(i) direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Trust Debentures, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Trust Debentures, enforce the Sponsor’s obligations under the Trust Debentures (to the extent permitted by the Indenture) or give any notice to the Indenture Trustee under Section 6.05 of the Indenture,

	(ii) waive any past default that may be waived under Section 6.07 of the Indenture,

	(iii) exercise any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all the Debentures shall be due and payable, or

	(iv) consent to any amendment, modification or termination of the Indenture or the Trust Debentures, where such consent by the holders of the Trust Debentures is required.

As Holder of the Trust Debentures within the meaning of the Indenture, the right to execute any power conferred by the Indenture with respect to the Trust Debentures is vested solely in the Property Trustee and no provision of this Trust Agreement shall be construed in any manner to provide any Holder or Owner of Securities with any such right. In taking any such action, it shall not be necessary for the Property Trustee or any of the other Trustees to obtain the prior approval of the Holders or Owners of any Securities. The Holders and Owners of the Securities are hereby expressly precluded from directing the Property Trustee or any of the other Trustees, or otherwise taking any action to compel the Property Trustee or any of the other Trustees, to take any action hereunder with respect to the Indenture or the Trust Debentures.

For so long as the Trust Debentures are held by the Trust, GE Capital shall not solicit a consent to a proposed amendment to the Trust Debentures or the Indenture with respect to the Trust Debentures, or seek a waiver of a past default under the Trust Debentures.

(c) Nothing in this Trust Agreement shall be construed to limit the ability of a Holder or Owner of Securities to make a non-binding request of the Property Trustee to take action, or to refrain from taking action, in respect of the Indenture and the Trust Debentures, and the Property Trustee may in its sole discretion elect to take or refrain from taking action pursuant to such request. In connection with any such request, any Owner of Securities may offer to indemnify the Property Trustee in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.03(g) hereof provided such Owner is a Qualified U.S. Holder.

Prior to taking any of the foregoing actions, the Property Trustees shall, at the expense of GE Capital, obtain an Opinion of Counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that such action shall not cause the Trust to be classified as other than one or more grantor trusts or custodial arrangements or to be classified as an association or partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(d) Section 316(a)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act (which addresses the right of holders of indenture securities to direct the time, method, and place for conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the indenture trustee, and to consent to waivers of past defaults) is hereby expressly excluded from this Trust Agreement.

Section 6.02. Waiver of Right to Initiate Derivative Actions.

(a) Each Holder and Owner of Securities shall be deemed to acknowledge that irreparable damage would occur if any Holder or Owner of Securities should have the right to initiate a derivative or similar action in the name of the Trust or one or more of the Trustees. Therefore, each Holder and Owner of Securities shall be deemed to have waived any right to bring an action pursuant to Section 3816(a) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act (as the same may be amended or superseded) or pursuant to any law of the State of Delaware pertaining to trusts or any other law of the State of Delaware providing for a derivative action by a beneficiary on behalf of a trust or trustee (or pursuant to any similar doctrine). To the extent, if any, any Holder or Owner of Securities shall by operation of law be entitled to bring any such action notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, such Holder or Owner may do so only (i) (x) in the case of a Holder, in the name of the Owner(s) with respect to such Holder’s interest if each such Owner is a United States Person, and (y) in the case of an Owner, in the name of such Owner if such Owner is a United States Person, or (ii) through a Qualified Agent if any such Owner is not a United States Person. Without limiting the foregoing, any such action shall be deemed to be subject to the same procedural and substantive requirements, mutatis mutandis, as a derivative action by a stockholder of a private for-profit corporation organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and for such purposes Delaware Court of Chancery Rule 23.1 (as the same may be amended or superseded) (or any similar procedural rule applicable to the action) shall be deemed to apply, and the same deference shall be accorded to any decision or action by the Property Trustee as is accorded to any decision or action by a board of directors (or committee thereof) under 8 Del. C. § 141 (as the same may be amended or superseded).

(b) For purposes of this Section, a “Qualified Agent” is a Person that has provided to the Property Trustee (i) a certificate in the form of Exhibit F or Exhibit G, as applicable, certifying that such Person: (A) is a United States Person; (B) has been irrevocably appointed by one or more Owners of Securities with full discretionary powers to act as their agent with respect to whether to initiate, and the conduct or settlement of, the action in question; (C) is independent of such Owners; and (D) is disinterested in the outcome of the action; and (ii) for each such Owner, a true and complete copy of a written opinion of independent, internationally recognized counsel to such Owners that the appointment of such Person as described in clause (i)(B) of this Section 6.02(b) is enforceable under the laws of the jurisdiction of such Owner. Subject to Section 8.01 (without regard to Section 8.03(g)), the Property Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such certifications and opinions without any requirement for independent investigation.

(c) If the Property Trustee determines that it is not, or is determined by any court of competent jurisdiction not to be, either independent or disinterested for the purpose of making any decision or taking any action with respect to a derivative or similar cause of action in the name of the Trust or one or more of the Trustees, GE Capital shall appoint an additional trustee

deemed to be both independent and disinterested. Such additional trustee shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) be empowered to act solely for the purposes of making such decision(s) and taking such action(s) and, if applicable, to initiate, conduct or settle any litigation related thereto (including any such derivative or similar litigation previously initiated by a Holder), and (ii) have the exclusive authority to make such decisions and take such actions and, if applicable, the exclusive authority to initiate, conduct or settle any litigation related thereto (including any such derivative or similar litigation previously initiated by a Holder or Owner of Securities).

(d) Each Holder and Owner of Securities is deemed to acknowledge reliance by all other Holders and Owners of Securities upon the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.02.

Section 6.03. Requests by Holders.

Any request permitted by this Trust Agreement to be made by Holders or Owners of Securities may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders or Owners in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Trust Agreement and (subject to Section 8.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustees, if made in the manner provided in this Section. The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner that any Trustee receiving the same deems sufficient. The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Securities Register. If any dispute shall arise among the Holders or the Trustees with respect to the authenticity or validity of any request of such Holder under this Article 6, then the determination of such matter by the Property Trustee shall be conclusive with respect to such matter.

ARTICLE 8
THE TRUSTEES

Section 8.01. Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

(a) The duties and responsibilities of the Trustees shall be as provided by this Trust Agreement and, in the case of the Property Trustee, by the Trust Indenture Act. Whether or not therein expressly so provided and except as provided in Section 8.03(g), every provision of this Trust Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustees shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.01. Nothing in this Trust Agreement shall be construed to release any Administrative Trustee from liability for his or her own negligent action, his or her own negligent failure to act, or his or her own willful misconduct. To the extent that, at law or in equity, a Trustee has duties and liabilities relating to the Trust or to the Holders, such Trustee shall not be liable to the Trust or to any Holder for such Trustee’s good faith reliance on the provisions of this Trust Agreement. The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the Trustees otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Sponsor and the Holders, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Trustees.

(b) All payments made by the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent in respect of the Securities shall be made only from the revenue and proceeds from the Trust Property and only to the extent that there shall be sufficient revenue or proceeds from the Trust Property to enable the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent to make payments in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Holder, by its acceptance of a Security, agrees that it will look solely to the revenue and proceeds from the Trust Property to the extent legally available for distribution to it as herein provided and that the Trustees are not personally liable to it for any amount distributable in respect of any Security or for any other liability in respect of any Security. This Section 8.01(b) does not limit the liability of the Trustees expressly set forth elsewhere in this Trust Agreement or, in the case of the Property Trustee, in the Trust Indenture Act.

(c) If a Trust Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Property Trustee shall enforce this Trust Agreement for the benefit of the Holders.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the occurrence of an Exchange Event in connection with a Debenture Event of Default in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.02 shall be deemed to cure the corresponding Trust Event of Default.

(d) The Property Trustee, before the occurrence of a Trust Event of Default and after the curing of all Trust Events of Default that may have occurred, shall undertake to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Trust Agreement (including pursuant to Section 10.09), and no implied covenants shall be read into this Trust Agreement against the Property Trustee. If a Trust Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Property Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise thereof, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.

(e) No provision of this Trust Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:


	(i) prior to the occurrence of a Trust Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all such Trust Events of Default that may have occurred:

		(A) the duties and obligations of the Property Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Trust Agreement (including pursuant to Section 10.09), and the Property Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Trust Agreement (including pursuant to Section 10.09); and

		(B) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Property Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Trust Agreement; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof or of the Trust Indenture Act are specifically required to be furnished to the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Trust Agreement;

	(ii) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by an Authorized Officer of the Property Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Property Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

	(iii) the Property Trustee’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safe keeping and physical preservation of the Trust Debentures and the Payment Account shall be to deal with such property in a similar manner as the Property Trustee deals with similar property for its own account, subject to the protections and limitations on liability afforded to the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement and the Trust Indenture Act;

	(iv) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any interest on any money received by it except as it may otherwise agree with GE Capital; and money held by the Property Trustee need not be segregated from other funds held by it except in relation to the Payment Account maintained by the Property Trustee pursuant to Section 3.01 and except to the extent otherwise required by law;

	(v) the Property Trustee shall not be responsible for monitoring the compliance by the Administrative Trustees, GE Capital or any other Person with their respective duties under this Trust Agreement, nor shall the Property Trustee be liable for the default or misconduct of any other Trustee, or GE Capital or any other Person; and

	(vi) no provision of this Trust Agreement shall require the Property Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if the Property Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of such


	funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it under the terms of this Trust Agreement or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(f) The Administrative Trustees shall not be responsible for monitoring the compliance by the other Trustees or GE Capital with their respective duties under this Trust Agreement, nor shall any Administrative Trustee be liable for the default or misconduct of any other Administrative Trustee, the other Trustees or GE Capital.

(g) Under no circumstances shall the Trustees have the power to have any dispute concerning the interpretation of the Trust or its administration resolved by mediation, arbitration or other procedure for alternative dispute resolution.

Section 8.02. Certain Notices.

Within 30 days after the occurrence of a Trust Event of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee shall transmit, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 10.07, notice of such Trust Event of Default to the Holders, the Administrative Trustees and GE Capital, unless such Trust Event of Default shall have been cured or waived. Within five Business Days after the receipt of notice from GE Capital of GE Capital’s exercise of its right to defer the payment of interest on the Debentures pursuant to the Indenture, the Property Trustee shall transmit, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 10.07, notice of such exercise to the Holders, unless such exercise shall have been revoked.

Section 8.03. Certain Rights of Property Trustee.

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.01:

(a) the Property Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting in good faith upon any resolution, Opinion of Counsel, certificate, written representation of a Holder or transferee, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

(b) if (i) in performing its duties under this Trust Agreement the Property Trustee is required to decide between alternative courses of action, (ii) in construing any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement the Property Trustee finds the same ambiguous or inconsistent with any other provisions contained herein, or (iii) the Property Trustee is unsure of the application of any provision of this Trust Agreement, then the Property Trustee shall deliver a notice to GE Capital requesting GE Capital’s opinion as to the course of action to be taken, and the Property Trustee shall be fully protected in taking such action, or refraining from taking such action, as the Property Trustee shall be instructed in writing to take, or to refrain from taking, by GE Capital; provided, however, that if the Property Trustee does not receive such instructions of GE Capital within ten Business Days after it has delivered such notice, or such reasonably shorter period of time set forth in such notice (which to the extent practicable shall not be less than two Business Days), it may take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Trust Agreement as it shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the Holders, in which event the Property

Trustee shall have no liability except for its own bad faith or willful misconduct; provided that the provisions of this Section 8.03(b) shall not apply at any time when there shall have occurred and be continuing a default by GE Capital with respect to any of its covenants and other obligations under the Indenture;

(c) unless otherwise provided herein, any direction or act of GE Capital contemplated by this Trust Agreement shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate;

(d) any direction or act of an Administrative Trustee contemplated by this Trust Agreement shall be sufficiently evidenced by a certificate executed by such Administrative Trustee and setting forth such direction or act;

(e) the Property Trustee shall have no duty to see to any recording, filing or registration of any instrument (including any financing or continuation statement or any filing under tax or securities laws) or any rerecording, refiling or re-registration thereof;

(f) the Property Trustee may consult with counsel (which counsel may be counsel to GE Capital or any of its Affiliates, and may include any of its employees) and the advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon and in accordance with such advice; the Property Trustee shall have the right at any time to seek instructions concerning the administration of this Trust Agreement from any court of competent jurisdiction;

(g) the Property Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement at the request of any or all of the Holders or Owners of Securities pursuant to this Trust Agreement, and if the Property Trustee chooses to act pursuant to any such request,


	(i) the Property Trustee may, as a condition to the taking or the refraining from the taking of any action pursuant to such request, require one or more Owners of Securities that are Qualified U.S. Holders to offer to the Property Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request, and

	(ii) it will incur no liability to any Person except for its bad faith or willful misconduct;

(h) the Property Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement at the request or direction of the Sponsor pursuant to this Trust Agreement at any time that there shall have occurred and be continuing a default by GE Capital with respect to any of its covenants and other obligations under the Indenture and at all other times unless the Sponsor shall have offered to the Property Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction and unless compliance with such request or direction does not violate this Trust Agreement or any rule of law;

(i) the Property Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,

request, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by one or more Holders, but the Property Trustee may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit;

(j) the Property Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through its agents or attorneys and shall not be liable for any act or omission of such agent or attorney selected with due care;

(k) whenever in the administration of this Trust Agreement the Property Trustee shall deem it desirable to receive a request from Holders or Owners of Securities with respect to the enforcement of any remedy or right or taking any other action hereunder, the Property Trustee (i) may request non-binding requests from one or more Holders or Owners of Securities in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.01(c), (ii) may refrain from enforcing such remedy or right or taking such other action until such requests are received (subject to Section 6.01(b), which provides that the Property Trustee has no obligation to exercise such remedy or right or take such action), and (iii) shall be entitled to require indemnity satisfactory to it from one or more Owners of Securities that are Qualified U.S. Holders as a condition to the taking of such action, and be protected in acting in furtherance of such request, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.03(g);

(l) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any action, taken, suffered, or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Trust Agreement;

(n) in no event shall the Property Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit); and

(o) the Property Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Trust Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Property Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a default is received by the Property Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Property Trustee, and such notice references the Securities and this Trust Agreement.

No provision of this Trust Agreement shall be deemed to impose any duty or obligation on any Trustee to perform any act or acts or exercise any right, power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it, in any jurisdiction in which it shall be illegal, or in which such Person shall be unqualified or incompetent in accordance with applicable law, to perform any such act or acts, or to exercise any such right, power, duty or obligation. No permissive power or authority available to any Trustee shall be construed to be a duty. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Trust Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Property Trustee shall extend to each of the

Securities Registrar, the Paying Agent and the Delaware Trustee and shall be subject to the provisions of this Article 8.

Section 8.04. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.

The recitals contained herein and in the certificates evidencing the Securities shall be taken as the statements of the Trust and the Sponsor, and the Trustees do not assume any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustees make no representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Trust Agreement or the Trust Securities.

The Property Trustee may conclusively assume that any funds held by it hereunder are legally available unless an officer of the Property Trustee assigned to its Corporate Trust Office shall have received written notice from GE Capital or any other Trustee that such funds are not legally available.

Section 8.05. May Hold Securities.

Any Trustee or any other agent of any Trustee or the Trust, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 8.08 and 8.13, and except as provided in the definition of the term “Outstanding” in Article 1, may otherwise deal with the Trust with the same rights it would have if it were not a Trustee or such other agent.

Section 8.06. Compensation; Indemnity; Fees.

The Sponsor agrees:

(a) to pay to the Trustees from time to time such reasonable compensation for all services rendered by them hereunder as may be agreed by GE Capital and the Trustees from time to time (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

(b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustees upon request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustees in accordance with any provision of this Trust Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of their agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to their own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct; and


	(i) each Trustee,

	(ii) any Affiliate of any Trustee, any officer, director, shareholder, employee, representative or agent of any Trustee, and

	(iii) any employee or agent of the Trust (referred to herein as an “Indemnified Person”)

from and against any loss, damage, liability, action, suit, tax, penalty, expense or claim of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred by such Indemnified Person by reason of the creation, operation or termination of the Trust or the administration of this Trust Agreement or any act or omission performed or omitted by such Indemnified Person on behalf of the Trust, except that no Indemnified Person shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss, damage, action, suit or claim incurred by such Indemnified Person by reason of negligence (solely in the case of the Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee), bad faith or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions.

The provisions of this Section 8.06 shall survive the termination of this Trust Agreement and the removal or resignation of any Trustee and the Securities Registrar and Paying Agent shall be entitled to the benefits of this Section 8.06. No Trustee may claim any Lien on any Trust Property as a result of any amount due pursuant to this Section 8.06.

Notwithstanding any provision of law or equity, GE Capital and any Trustee may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature or description, independently or with others, similar or dissimilar to the business of the Trust, and the Trust and the Holders of Trust Securities shall have no rights by virtue of this Trust Agreement in and to such independent ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such venture, even if competitive with the business of the Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper.

Notwithstanding any provision of law or equity, neither GE Capital nor any Trustee shall be obligated to present any particular investment or other opportunity to the Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Trust, could be taken by the Trust, and the Sponsor and any Trustee shall have the right to take for its own account (individually or as a partner or fiduciary) or to recommend to others any such particular investment or other opportunity. Notwithstanding any provision of law or equity, any Trustee may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with GE Capital or any Affiliate of GE Capital, or may act as depositary for, trustee or agent for, or act on any committee or body of holders of, securities or other obligations of GE Capital or its Affiliates.

Section 8.07. Corporate Property Trustee Required; Eligibility of Trustees.

(a) There shall at all times be a Property Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities. The Property Trustee shall be a Person that is a national or state chartered bank and eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 8.07 and to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Property Trustee with respect to the Securities shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.07, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article 8. At the time of appointment, the Property Trustee must have securities rated in one of the three highest rating categories by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

(b) There shall at all times be one or more Administrative Trustees hereunder with respect to the Securities. Each Administrative Trustee shall be either a natural person who is at least 21 years of age or a legal entity that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind that entity.

(c) There shall at all times be a Delaware Trustee with respect to the Securities. The Delaware Trustee shall either be (i) a natural person who is at least 21 years of age and a resident of the State of Delaware, or (ii) a legal entity with its principal place of business in the State of Delaware and that otherwise meets the requirements of applicable Delaware law and that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind such entity.

Section 8.08. Conflicting Interests.

(a) If the Property Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Property Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Trust Agreement.

(b) The Guarantee Agreement and the Indenture shall be deemed to be specifically described in this Trust Agreement for the purposes of clause (i) of the first proviso contained in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.

Section 8.09. Co-Trustees and Separate Trustee.

Unless and until a Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time or times, for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of the Trust Indenture Act or of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Property may at the time be located, the Holder of the Common Securities and the Administrative Trustees shall have the power to appoint one or more Persons either to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Property Trustee, of all or any part of such Trust Property, or to the extent required by law to act as separate trustee of any such property, in either case with such powers as may be provided in the instrument of appointment, and to vest in such Person or Persons in the capacity aforesaid, any property, title, right or power deemed necessary or desirable, subject to the other provisions of this Section. Any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed pursuant to this Section shall either be (i) a natural person who is at least 21 years of age and a resident of the United States, or (ii) a legal entity with its principal place of business in the United States that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind such entity. In case a Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Property Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment and, upon the written request of the Property Trustee, GE Capital and the Administrative Trustees shall for such purpose join with the Property Trustee in the execution, delivery, and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint, such co-trustee or separate trustee. Should any written instrument from GE Capital be required by any co-trustee or separate trustee so appointed for more fully confirming to such co-trustee or separate trustee such property, title, right, or power, any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by GE Capital. Every co-trustee or separate trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following terms, namely:

(a) The certificates evidencing the Securities shall be executed by one or more Administrative Trustees, and the Securities shall be authenticated and delivered by the Property Trustee, and all rights, powers, duties, and obligations hereunder in respect of the custody of securities, cash and other personal property held by, or required to be deposited or pledged with, the Property Trustee specified hereunder shall be exercised solely by the Property Trustee and not by such co-trustee or separate trustee.

(b) The rights, powers, duties, and obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Property Trustee in respect of any property covered by such appointment shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Property Trustee or by the Property Trustee and such co-trustee or separate trustee jointly, as shall be provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee or separate trustee, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed, the Property Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed by such co-trustee or separate trustee.

(c) The Property Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by it, with the written concurrence of GE Capital, may accept the resignation of or remove any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed under this Section, and, in case a Debenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Property Trustee shall have power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such co-trustee or separate trustee without the concurrence of GE Capital. Upon the written request of the Property Trustee, GE Capital shall join with the Property Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to effectuate such resignation or removal. A successor to any co-trustee or separate trustee so resigning or removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section.

(d) No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Property Trustee or any other trustee hereunder.

(e) The Property Trustee shall not be liable by reason of any act of a co-trustee or separate trustee.

(f) Any Act of Holders delivered to the Property Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to each such co-trustee and separate trustee.

Section 8.10. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

No resignation or removal of any Trustee (the “Relevant Trustee”) and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article 8 shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 8.11.

Subject to the immediately preceding paragraph, the Relevant Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Holders and by appointing a successor Relevant Trustee. The Relevant Trustee shall appoint a successor by requesting (on a form provided by the Administrative Trustees) a fee schedule to serve as the Relevant Trustee from each of at least three Persons meeting the applicable eligibility requirements, and selecting the Person who agrees to the lowest expenses and charges. If the instrument of acceptance by the successor

Trustee required by Section 8.11 shall not have been delivered to the Relevant Trustee within 60 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the Relevant Trustee may petition, at the expense of GE Capital, in the case of the Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Relevant Trustee.

The Property Trustee and the Administrative Trustees, or any of them, may be removed at any time by Act of the Holder of the Common Securities delivered to the Relevant Trustee; provided that the Holder of the Common Securities may not so remove the Property Trustee following the occurrence of a default in the performance by the Sponsor of any of its obligations under the Indenture that has not been cured (regardless of whether such default would, with notice or the passage of time or both, constitute a Debenture Event of Default under the Indenture).

The Holders and Owners of Trust Securities shall have no power of removal or appointment with respect to any of the Trustees.

If a resigning Property Trustee or Delaware Trustee shall fail to appoint a successor, or if the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall be removed or become incapable of acting as Trustee, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee for any cause, the Holder of the Common Securities by Act of such Holder delivered to the Relevant Trustee shall appoint a successor Relevant Trustee or Trustees, and such successor Trustee shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 8.11.

The Property Trustee shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of a Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Holders in the manner provided in Section 10.07 and shall give notice to GE Capital and to the Administrative Trustees. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Relevant Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office if it is the Property Trustee.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Trust Agreement, if any Delaware Trustee who is a natural person dies or becomes, in the opinion of the Holders of the Common Securities, incompetent or incapacitated, the vacancy created by such death, incompetence or incapacity may be filled by the Property Trustee following the procedures regarding expenses and charges set forth above (with the successor being a Person who satisfies the eligibility requirement for the Delaware Trustee set forth in Section 8.07).

Section 8.11. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Relevant Trustee, the retiring Relevant Trustee (if requested by GE Capital) and each successor Relevant Trustee with respect to the Securities shall execute and deliver an amendment hereto wherein each successor Relevant Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (a) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Relevant Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Relevant Trustee with respect to the Securities and the Trust, and (b) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the Trust by more than one Relevant Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such amendment

shall constitute such Relevant Trustees co-trustees and upon the execution and delivery of such amendment the resignation or removal of the retiring Relevant Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Relevant Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Relevant Trustee, other than the filing of an amendment to the Certificate of Trust to the extent required under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act; but, on request of the Trust or any successor Relevant Trustee such retiring Relevant Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Relevant Trustee all Trust Property, all proceeds thereof and money held by such retiring Relevant Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities and the Trust.

Upon request of any such successor Relevant Trustee, the Trust shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Relevant Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in the preceding paragraph.

No successor Relevant Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Relevant Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article 8.

Section 8.12. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

Any Person into which the Property Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or any Administrative Trustee that is not a natural Person may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Relevant Trustee shall be a party, or any Person, succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of such Relevant Trustee, shall be the successor of such Relevant Trustee hereunder, provided that such Person shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article 8, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, other than the filing of an amendment to the Certificate of Trust to the extent required under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act.

Section 8.13. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Sponsor or the Trust.

If and when the Property Trustee shall be or become a creditor of GE Capital or the Trust (or any other obligor upon the Trust Securities), the Property Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against GE Capital or the Trust (or any such other obligor).

Section 8.14. Property Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other similar judicial proceeding relative to the Trust or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Trust or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Property Trustee (irrespective of whether any Distributions on the Securities shall then be due and payable and irrespective of whether the Property Trustee shall have made any demand on the Trust for the payment of any past due Distributions) shall be entitled and empowered, to the fullest extent permitted by law, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of any Distributions owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Property Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Property Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

(b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized to make such payments to the Property Trustee and, in the event the Property Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Property Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Property Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Property Trustee.

Section 8.15. Reports by Property Trustee.

Within sixty (60) days after [September 30] of each year commencing with [September 30], 2010, the Property Trustee shall provide to the Holders of the Securities such reports as are required by Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, if any, in the form and in the manner provided by Section 313 of the Trust Indenture Act, which reports shall be as of a date no more than sixty (60) days prior thereto. The Property Trustee shall also comply with the requirements of Section 313(d) of the Trust Indenture Act. GE Capital will promptly notify the Property Trustee when any Trust Securities are listed on any stock exchange.

ARTICLE 9
TERMINATION, LIQUIDATION AND MERGER

Section 9.01. Termination.

The Trust shall dissolve immediately upon the occurrence of an Exchange Event or a Termination Event.

Section 9.02. Exchange Event.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Debenture Event of Default, the Trust Securities shall automatically (and without the consent of any Applicable Regulatory Authority or requirement that the Trust first terminate) be exchanged for the Trust Debentures (such an event, an “Exchange Event”).

(b) If at the time of an Exchange Event, the Trust has funds that are attributable to the payment by GE Capital of interest on, or principal of, the Trust Debentures that have not been distributed to holders of the Securities, such funds will also be distributed pro rata to the Holders in connection with such Exchange Event, subject to the provisions of Section 4.03.

(c) Immediately upon the occurrence of an Exchange Event (i) the Securities will no longer be deemed to be Outstanding, (ii) certificates representing a Like Amount of Trust Debentures will be issued to Holders of Securities upon surrender of such certificates to the exchange agent for exchange, (iii) any Securities not so surrendered for exchange will be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Trust Debentures bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an amount equal to the accumulated and unpaid Distributions on such Securities until such certificates are so surrendered and (iv) all rights of Holders holding Securities will cease, except the right of such Holders to receive Trust Debentures upon surrender of Securities (and, to the extent applicable, the right to receive any funds in the Trust attributable to payments by GE Capital of interest on, or principal of, the Trust Debentures that have not been distributed to the Holders).

(d) Following the occurrence of an Exchange Event and the automatic exchange of the Securities for Trust Debentures, the Trust shall dissolve and the Trust’s affairs shall be wound up by the Property Trustee and the Administrative Trustees in such manner as the Administrative Trustees determine, subject to the requirements of Section 3808(e) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act. Thereafter the Trustees shall file a Certification of Cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.

Section 9.03. Termination Events.

The first to occur of any of the following events is a “Termination Event”, upon the occurrence of which the Trust shall dissolve:


	(a) subject to GE Capital having received any then required approval of any Applicable Regulatory Authority to terminate the Trust, upon the election of GE Capital to dissolve the Trust and to distribute the Debentures to Holders in exchange for the Securities;

	(b) the redemption or repayment of all of the Securities in accordance with the provisions of this Trust Agreement; and

	(c) the entry of an order for dissolution of the Trust by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 9.04. Termination of Obligations.

If an Exchange Event or a Termination Event shall occur, the provisions of this Section 9.04 shall apply.

The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Trustees and the Trust created and continued hereby shall terminate upon the latest to occur of the following:

(a) the distribution by the Property Trustee to Holders of all amounts required to be distributed hereunder upon the liquidation of the Trust pursuant to Section 9.05, or upon the redemption of all of the Securities pursuant to Section 4.02;

(b) the automatic exchange of the Trust Debentures for the Securities upon the occurrence of an Exchange Event and the concurrent distribution of any funds available for distribution as specified in Section 9.02;

(d) the discharge of all regular duties of the Administrative Trustees, including the performance of any tax reporting obligations with respect to the Trust or the Holders; and

(e) the filing of a Certificate of Cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware signed by each of the Trustees.

Section 9.05. Liquidation.

(a) If a Termination Event specified in clause (a) or (c) of Section 9.03 occurs, the Trust shall be liquidated by the Trustees as expeditiously as the Trustees determine to be possible by distributing, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Trust as provided by applicable law, to each Holder a Like Amount of Trust Debentures, subject to Section 9.05(d). Notice of liquidation shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Liquidation Date to each Holder of Securities at such Holder’s address appearing in the Securities Register. All such notices of liquidation shall:


	(i) state the CUSIP Number of the Trust Securities;

	(ii) state the Liquidation Date;

	(iii) state that from and after the Liquidation Date, the Securities will no longer be deemed to be Outstanding and any Securities not surrendered for exchange will be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Debentures, or if Section 9.05(d) applies, a right to receive a Liquidation Distribution; and

	(iv) provide such information with respect to the procedures by which Holders may exchange Securities for Debentures, or if Section 9.05(d) applies receive a Liquidation Distribution, as the Administrative Trustees shall deem appropriate.

(b) Except where Section 9.05(d) or Section 9.05(e) applies, in order to effect the liquidation of the Trust and distribution of the Trust Debentures to Holders, the Property Trustee, either itself acting as exchange agent or through the appointment of a separate exchange agent, shall establish a record date for such distribution (which shall be not more than 30 days prior to the Liquidation Date), and establish such procedures as it shall deem appropriate to effect the distribution of Debentures in exchange for the Outstanding Securities.

(c) Except where Section 9.05(d) or Section 9.05(e) applies, after the Liquidation Date, (i) the Securities will no longer be deemed to be Outstanding, (ii) certificates representing

a Like Amount of Trust Debentures will be issued to Holders of Securities, upon surrender of certificates evidencing such Securities to the exchange agent for exchange, (iii) any Securities not so surrendered for exchange will be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Debentures bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an amount equal to the accumulated and unpaid Distributions on such Securities until such certificates are so surrendered (and until such certificates are so surrendered, no payments of interest or principal will be made to Holders of Securities with respect to such Debentures) and (iv) all rights of Holders holding Securities will cease, except the right of such Holders to receive Trust Debentures upon surrender of Securities.

(d) If, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 9.05, whether because of an order for dissolution entered by a court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise, distribution of the Trust Debentures in the manner provided herein is determined by the Property Trustee and the Administrative Trustees not to be possible, the Trust Property shall be liquidated, and the Trust’s affairs shall be wound up by the Property Trustee and the Administrative Trustees in such manner as the Administrative Trustees determine, subject to the requirements of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act. In such event, upon the winding-up of the Trust, except with respect to a Termination Event specified in clause (a) of Section 9.03, Holders will be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to Holders, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Trust as provided by applicable law (which liabilities GE Capital shall pay pursuant to Section 4.09), cash in an amount equal to the Liquidation Amount per Security plus accumulated and unpaid Distributions thereon to the date of payment (such amount being the “Liquidation Distribution”). If, upon any such winding up, the Liquidation Distribution can be paid only in part because the Trust has insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate Liquidation Distribution, then, subject to the next succeeding sentence, the amounts payable by the Trust on the Securities shall be paid on a pro rata basis (based upon Liquidation Amounts). The Holders of the Common Securities will be entitled to receive Liquidation Distributions upon any such dissolution pro rata (determined as aforesaid) with Holders of Trust Securities, except that the Trust Securities shall have a priority over the Common Securities under the circumstances provided in Section 4.03.

(e) If a Termination Event specified in clause (b) of Section 9.03 occurs, the Trust Property (if any) shall be liquidated and the Trust’s affairs shall be wound up by the Property Trustee and the Administrative Trustees in such manner as the Administrative Trustees determine, subject to Section 3808 of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act.

Section 9.06. Mergers, Consolidations, Amalgamations or Replacements of Trust.

The Trust may not merge with or into, consolidate, amalgamate, or be replaced by, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any corporation or other body, except pursuant to this Section 9.06 or Sections 9.02 and 9.05. At the request of the Holders of the Common Securities, with the consent of the Administrative Trustees and without any requirement for the consent of any other Person, the Trust may merge with or into, consolidate, amalgamate, or be replaced by or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to a trust organized as such under the laws of any State; provided that

(i) such successor entity either (a) expressly assumes all of the obligations of the Trust with respect to the Trust Securities, or (b) substitutes for the Trust Securities other

securities having substantially the same terms as the Trust Securities (the “Successor Securities”) so long as the Successor Securities have the same priority as the Trust Securities with respect to distributions and payments upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise;

(ii) the Sponsor, as issuer of the Trust Debentures, expressly acknowledges a trustee of the successor entity possessing the same powers and duties as the Property Trustee as the holder of the corresponding Trust Debentures;

(iii) the Trust Securities or any Successor Securities are listed, or any Successor Securities will be listed upon notification of issuance, on each securities exchange or other organization, if any, on which the Trust Securities are then, or had been, listed or quoted;

(iv) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease does not cause the Trust Securities (including any Successor Securities) to be downgraded by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization which assigns ratings to the Trust Securities;

(v) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease does not adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the Holders of the Trust Securities (including any Successor Securities) in any material respect;

(vi) such successor entity has a purpose substantially identical to that of the Trust;

(vii) prior to such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, the Sponsor has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (a) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease does not adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the Holders of the Trust Securities (including any Successor Securities) in any material respect, and (b) following such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, neither the Trust nor such successor entity will be required to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act;

(viii) prior to such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, the Sponsor has received a written opinion of nationally recognized tax counsel to the effect that such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, or replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease will not (a) result in a deemed exchange of the Trust Debentures for new Trust Debentures for U.S. federal income tax purposes; or (b) cause the Trust, or cause or permit the successor entity, to be treated as other than a domestic grantor trust or custodial arrangement for U.S. federal income tax purposes; and

(ix) GE Capital or its permitted successor or assignee owns all of the common securities of such successor entity and guarantees the obligations of such successor entity under the Successor Securities at least to the extent provided by the Guarantee Agreement.

Section 9.07. Optional Exchange.

If at any time the Sponsor or any of its Affiliates (in either case, a “Sponsor Affiliated Owner”) is a Holder of any Trust Securities or an owner of beneficial interests therein, such

Sponsor Affiliated Owner shall have the right to deliver to the Property Trustee all or the portion of its Trust Securities or beneficial interests therein as it elects and receive, in exchange therefor, Trust Debentures in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate stated Liquidation Amount of, with an interest rate identical to the distribution rate of, and accrued and unpaid interest equal to accumulated and unpaid Distributions on, the Trust Securities. Such election (i) shall be exercisable by such Sponsor Affiliated Owner delivering to the Property Trustee a written notice of such election (A) specifying the Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities with respect to which such election is being made, (B) containing the broker participant number through which such Trust Securities will be delivered to the Property Trustee through DTC, and (C) specifying the date on which such exchange shall occur, which may be any date other than the record date for any Distribution or a date from such record date to and including the Distribution Payment Date for such Distribution, and (ii) shall be conditioned upon such Sponsor Affiliated Owner having delivered or caused to be delivered to the Property Trustee or its designee the Trust Securities that are the subject of such election by 10:00 a.m. New York time, on the date on which such exchange is to occur. After the exchange, such Trust Securities shall be cancelled and shall no longer be deemed to be Outstanding and all rights of the Sponsor Affiliated Owner with respect to such Trust Securities shall cease, including the right to receive accumulated but unpaid Distributions thereon. If such Trust Securities are held in book-entry form, upon such exchange, the Property Trustee, in its capacity as Securities Registrar, shall cause an annotation to be made on the Global Trust Securities certificate or certificates evidencing the beneficial interest in such Trust Securities to evidence the reduction in the Liquidation Amount thereof resulting from such cancellation.

ARTICLE 10
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 10.01. Limitation of Rights of Holders.

All parties to this Trust Agreement agree, and each Holder of any Securities by his or her acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit against any Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any suit instituted by any Trustee.

(c) In addition to and notwithstanding any other provision in this Trust Agreement, this Trust Agreement may not be amended to change the amount or timing of any Distribution on the Securities or otherwise adversely affect the amount of any Distribution required to be made in respect of the Securities as of a specified date (subject to any amendment to the terms hereof pursuant to Section 10.02(b) which provides that such amendment may be made with the consent of each Holder of Trust Securities affected thereby).

(d) In the event that any amendment to this Trust Agreement is made, the Administrative Trustees shall promptly provide to GE Capital, the Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee a copy of such amendment.
