 General Electric Company, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of
New York (herein called the “Company”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered
assigns, the principal sum of FIVE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS ($500,000,000) on December 6, 2017, and to pay interest thereon from December 6, 2007 (the “Original Issue Date”) or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which
interest has been paid or duly provided for, semiannually in arrears on June 6 and December 6 in each year, commencing June 6, 2008 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), at the interest rate per annum specified above, until
the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment. Interest on this Security will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If any Interest Payment Date or the Stated Maturity falls on a day which is not a
Business Day (as defined below), the interest payment, and the principal payment due on the Stated Maturity, will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no interest shall accrue on such amounts for the period from and after
such Interest Payment Date or Stated Maturity to the next succeeding Business Day. A “Business Day” shall mean each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking institutions in the Place of Payment
are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security
(or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the 

 
May 20 or November 20, as the case may be (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that
interest payable on December 6, 2017, shall be payable to the Person to whom the principal of this Security shall be payable. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on
such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed
by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities
exchange or automated quotation system on which the Securities of this series may be listed or traded, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange or automated quotation system, all as more fully provided in said Indenture. 

Payment of the principal of and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Paying Agent maintained for that purpose in the
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York (currently the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof located at 101 Barclay Street, New York, New York 10286), in such coin or currency of the United States of America as
at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as
such address shall appear in the Security Register or (ii) by wire transfer in immediately available funds at such place and to such account as may be designated in writing by the Person entitled thereto as specified in the Security Register at
least fifteen days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date. 
 Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set
forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

 REVERSE OF SECURITY 
 This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of
December 1, 2005 (herein called the “Indenture”, which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company and The Bank of New York (successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.), as Trustee (herein
called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of
rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the
face hereof, limited in aggregate principal amount to $4,000,000,000; provided, however, that the authorized aggregate principal amount of the Securities of this series may be increased above such amount by a Board Resolution to such effect.

 The interest payable on any Interest Payment Date will be the amount of interest accrued from, and including, the next preceding Interest
Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and including the Original Issue Date if no interest has been paid or duly provided for with respect to the Securities of this series) to, but excluding, such
Interest Payment Date. 
 The Securities of this series are not subject to redemption by the Company prior to their Stated Maturity and will
not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund. 
 The Indenture contains provisions for satisfaction and discharge of the entire
indebtedness of this Security upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture contains
provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Security upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided
in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the
rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of all series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series to be affected, treated as one class. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time
Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past

defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such
Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

 As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any
proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to
the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default
as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity, the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and the
Trustee shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any
payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for herein. 
 No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security
at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and any
premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge
shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company and the Security Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat
the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 All terms used in this Security which are
defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 THE INDENTURE AND THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY
