OTHER PROVISIONS: Any
provisions to the contrary specified on the reverse hereof notwithstanding, the
Interest Rate Basis specified above shall be calculated in accordance with the

January 23, 2009, relating to its Global Medium-Term Notes Due From 9 Months to
60 Years From Date of Issue

          General
Electric Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation (together with its
successors and assigns, the “Company”), for value received, hereby promises to
pay to                    , or registered assignees, the principal sum (or Face Amount, if the
Note has a dual-currency or index feature) specified in Schedule I hereto on
the Maturity Date specified above (except to the extent redeemed or repaid
prior to the Maturity Date) and to pay interest thereon from the Original Issue
Date specified above at a rate per annum equal to the Initial Interest Rate
specified above until the first Interest Reset Date next succeeding the
Original Issue Date specified above, and thereafter at a rate per annum
determined in accordance with the provisions specified on the reverse hereof
until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment (except
as provided below). The Company will pay interest in arrears monthly,
quarterly, semiannually, or annually as specified above as the Interest Payment
Period on each Interest Payment Date (as specified above), commencing with the
first Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Original Issue Date specified
above, and on the Maturity Date (or any redemption or repayment date); provided, however, that if the Original
Issue Date occurs between a Record Date, as defined below, and the next
succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest payments will commence on the second
Interest Payment Date succeeding the Original Issue Date to the registered
holder of this Note on the Record Date with respect to such second Interest
Payment Date; and provided, further, that
if an Interest Payment Date (other than maturity) would fall on a day that is
not a Business Day (this and certain other capitalized terms used herein are
defined on the reverse of this Note), such Interest Payment Date shall be the
following day that is a Business Day, except that if the Interest Rate Basis
specified above is LIBOR and such next Business Day falls in the next calendar
month, the Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately preceding day that is
a Business Day. 

          [With
respect to any dual-currency Notes, the Company may elect on each Option
Election Date specified above (each such date herein being called an “Option
Election Date”) to pay the amounts due on this Note on the succeeding Interest
Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, in the Optional Payment
Currency specified above (the “Optional Payment Currency”) instead of in the
Face Amount Currency. The amounts due in the Optional Payment Currency on any
Interest Payment Date or at the Maturity Date, as the case may be, shall be
determined by the Company using the Designated Exchange Rate specified above
(the “Designated Exchange Rate”). If such election is made, the Company shall
notify the Paying Agent, as defined below, of the election on the Option
Election Date and notice of such election shall be mailed to the registered
holder of this Note by first class mail, postage prepaid, at the address of
such holder as that address appears upon the books of the Company within two
Business Days (this and certain other capitalized terms used herein are defined
on the reverse of this Note) of the Option Election Date and shall state (i)
the Interest Payment Date and (ii) the exchange rate to be used to convert
amounts from the Face Amount Currency to the Optional Payment Currency, which
rate shall be the Designated Exchange Rate. Any such notice by the Company to
the registered holder of this Note, once given, may not be withdrawn. If the
Company elects on any Option Election Date to pay the amounts due on each
succeeding Interest Payment Date or at the Maturity Date, as the case may be,
in the Optional Payment Currency, then it shall pay all such amounts (including
principal) due with respect to this Note in the Optional Payment Currency on
each succeeding Interest Payment Date or at the Maturity Date, as the case may
be. If the Company does not elect on an Option Election Date to pay the amount
due on the succeeding Interest Payment Date or at the Maturity Date, as the
case may be, in the Optional Payment Currency, then such payment shall be made
in the Face Amount Currency and no notice of such payment need be given.]6

          Payment
of the principal of this Note, any premium and the interest due at the Maturity
Date (or any redemption or repayment date) will be made in immediately
available funds upon surrender of this Note at the office or agency of such
paying agent (a “Paying Agent”) as the Company may determine maintained for
that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, [and in London]7
or at the office or agency of such other Paying Agent as the Company may
determine. 

	
 

	
 

	

	
6

	
Use if Note has
 dual-currency feature.

	
 

	
 

	
7

	
Include if this Note is to
 be listed on the London Stock Exchange.

4

          Interest
on this Note will accrue initially from the Original Issue Date and thereafter
will accrue from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has
been paid or duly provided for and such interest thereafter will accrue until
the principal hereof has been paid or duly made available for payment (except as
provided below). The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided
for, on any Interest Payment Date, will, subject to certain exceptions
described herein, be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more
predecessor Note) is registered at the close of business on the date 15 days
prior to an Interest Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day) (each such
date a “Record Date”); provided, however,
that interest payable on the Maturity Date (or any redemption or repayment
date) will be payable to the person to whom the principal hereof shall be
payable. 

5

          If
the Specified Currency indicated on the face hereof is other than U.S. dollars,
any payment on this Note on an Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or
any redemption or repayment date) will be made in U.S. dollars based on the
noon U.S. dollar buying rate in the City of New York for cable transfers of
such Specified Currency, on the second Business Day (this and certain other
capitalized terms used herein are defined on the reverse of this Note)
preceding the applicable payment date, as certified by the Federal Reserve Bank
of New York for customs purposes, unless the holder hereof elects by written
request (which request shall also include appropriate wire transfer
instructions) to the Paying Agent at its corporate trust office in The City of
New York received on or prior to the Record Date relating to an Interest
Payment Date or at least 10 days prior to the Maturity Date (or any redemption
or repayment date), as the case may be, to receive such payment in such
Specified Currency except as provided on the reverse hereof; provided, that the amount of such
Specified Currency to be received by a holder of this Note who so elects to
receive such Specified Currency will be based on a firm bid quotation in New
York City received by the Exchange Rate Agent, as defined on the reverse
hereof, at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the second Business
Day preceding the applicable payment date from a recognized foreign exchange
dealer (which may be the Exchange Rate Agent) for the purchase by the quoting
dealer of U.S. dollars in exchange for such Specified Currency for settlement
on such payment date in the aggregate amount of such Specified Currency payable
to all holders of Notes having the same terms as this Note (including Original
Issue Date) that have so elected to receive such Specified Currency and at
which the applicable dealer commits to execute a contract; provided, further, that if such bid
quotation is not available, such payments shall be made in U.S. Dollars. All
currency exchange costs will be borne by the holder of this Note who so elects
to receive such Specified Currency by deductions from such payments. The holder
hereof may elect to receive payment in such Specified Currency for all such
payments and need not file a separate election for each such payment, and such
election shall remain in effect until revoked by written notice to the Paying
Agent at its corporate trust office in The City of New York received on a date
prior to the Record Date for the relevant Interest Payment Date or at least 10
days prior to the Maturity Date (or any redemption or repayment date), as the
case may be; provided, however, that
such election is irrevocable as to the next succeeding payment to which it
relates; if such election is made as to full payment on this Note, such
election may thereafter be revoked so long as the Paying Agent is notified of
the revocation within the time period set forth above. 

          If
the Specified Currency indicated on the face hereof is U.S. dollars, payment of
the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Note will be made in
such coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that payments of interest, other than
interest due at maturity (or any redemption or repayment date) will be made by
United States dollar check mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto
as such address shall appear in the Note register. A holder of U.S.$5,000,000
or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes having the same Interest Payment
Date will be entitled to receive payments of interest, other than interest due
at maturity or any date of redemption or repayment, by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to an account maintained by the holder of this Note
if appropriate wire transfer instructions in writing have been received by the
Paying Agent not less than 10 calendar days prior to the applicable Interest
Payment Date. 

          Reference
is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse
hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as
if set forth at this place. 

          Unless
the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee, as
defined on the reverse hereof, by manual signature, this Note shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Indenture, as defined on the reverse hereof,
or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

          1.
 If this Note is designated as a Regular Floating Rate Note on the face

          2.
 If this Note is designated as a Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note on the face

 is payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date specified on the
 face hereof; provided, however, that
 (i) the interest rate in effect for the period from the Original Issue Date

 hereon for the ten calendar days immediately prior to the Fixed Rate

 interest rate in effect hereon on the day immediately preceding the Fixed
 Rate Commencement Date. 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
          3.
 If this Note is designated as an Inverse Floating Rate Note on the face
 hereof, then, except as described below, this Note will bear interest equal
 to the Fixed Interest Rate indicated on the face hereof minus the rate
 determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis shown on the
 face hereof (i) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (ii)
 multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any, specified and applied
 in the manner described on the face hereof; provided,
 however, that the interest rate hereon will not be less than zero.
 Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on
 this Note is payable shall be reset as of each Interest Rate Reset Date
 specified on the face hereof; provided,
 however, that (i) the interest rate in effect for the period from
 the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date will be the
 Initial Interest Rate, and (ii) unless otherwise specified on the face
 hereof, the interest rate in effect hereon for the ten calendar days
 immediately prior to a Maturity Date or redemption or repayment date shall be
 that in effect on the tenth calendar day preceding such date. 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
          4.
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Note is designated on the face hereof
 as having an Addendum attached, the Note shall bear interest in accordance
 with the terms described in such Addendum. 

          Except
as provided above, the interest rate in effect on each day shall be (a) if such
day is an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate determined on the Interest
Determination Date (as defined below) immediately preceding such Interest Reset
Date or (b) if such day is not an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate
determined on the Interest Determination Date immediately preceding the next
preceding Interest Reset Date. Each Interest Rate Basis shall be the rate
determined in accordance with the applicable provision below. If any Interest
Reset Date (which term includes the term Initial Interest Reset Date unless the
context otherwise requires) would otherwise be a day that is not a Business
Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding day
that is a Business Day, except that if an 

9

Interest Rate Basis
specified on the face hereof is LIBOR and such next Business Day falls in the
next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall be the next
preceding Business Day. 

          The
Interest Determination Date pertaining to an Interest Reset Date for Notes
bearing interest calculated by reference to the CD Rate, Commercial Paper Rate,
Federal Funds Rate, Prime Rate and CMT Rate will be the second Business Day
next preceding such Interest Reset Date. The Interest Determination Date with
respect to the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate will be the last working
day of the month immediately preceding each Interest Reset Date on which the
Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (the “FHLB of San Francisco”) publishes
the Index (as defined below). The Interest Determination Date pertaining to an
Interest Reset Date for Notes bearing interest calculated by reference to LIBOR
shall be the second London Business Day preceding such Interest Reset Date
unless the Index Currency is (i) pounds sterling, in which case the Interest
Determination Date will be the applicable Interest Reset Date or (ii) Euro, in
which case the Interest Determination Date will be the second Target Settlement
Date (as defined below) preceding such Interest Reset Date. The Interest
Determination Date pertaining to an Interest Reset Date for Notes bearing
interest calculated by reference to the Treasury Rate shall be the day of the
week in which such Interest Reset Date falls on which Treasury bills normally
would be auctioned; provided, however, that
if an auction is held on the Friday of the week preceding such Interest Reset
Date, the related Interest Determination Date shall be such preceding Friday;
and provided, further, that if an
auction shall fall on any Interest Reset Date, then the Interest Reset Date
shall instead be the first Business Day following the date of such auction. 

          The
“Calculation Date” pertaining to
any Interest Determination Date will be the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar
day after such Interest Determination Date or, if such day is not a Business
Day, the next succeeding Business Day or (ii) the Business Day preceding the
applicable Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date or redemption or repayment
date, as the case may be. 

          Determination
of CD Rate. If
the Interest Rate Basis specified on the face hereof is the CD Rate, the CD
Rate with respect to this Note shall be determined on each Interest
Determination Date and shall be the rate on such date for negotiable
certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof
as published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in “Statistical
Release H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates,” or any successor publication
(“H.15(519)”), under the heading “CDs (secondary market),” or, if not so
published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining
to such Interest Determination Date, the CD Rate will be the rate on such
Interest Determination Date for negotiable certificates of deposit of the Index
Maturity specified on the face hereof as published in the daily update of
H.15(519), available through the world-wide-web site of the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve Systems at
http://www.bog.frb.fed.us/releases/h15/update, or any successor site or
publication (“H.15 Daily Update”) or such other recognized electronic source
used for the purpose of displaying such rate, under the heading “CDs (secondary
market).” If such rate is not yet published in either H.15(519), H.15 Daily
Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 P.M., New York City
time, on such Calculation Date pertaining to such Interest Determination Date,
then the CD Rate on such Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the
Calculation Agent referred to on the face hereof and will be the average of the
secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such
Interest Determination Date, as quoted by three leading nonbank dealers in
negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit in The City of New York selected
by the Calculation Agent (after consultation with the Company), for negotiable
certificates of deposit of major United States money market banks with a
remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof
in a denomination of $5,000,000; provided, however, that if fewer than three
dealers are quoting rates, the rate of interest on this Note with respect to
the following Interest Reset Period shall be the rate of interest as in effect
on such Interest Determination Date. 

          Determination
of Commercial Paper Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis specified on the face hereof is the Commercial
Paper Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate with respect to this Note shall be
determined on each Interest Determination Date and shall be the Money Market
Yield (as defined herein) of the rate on such date for commercial paper having
the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof, as such rate shall be
published in H.15(519) under the heading “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial,” or if
not so published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation
Date pertaining to such Interest Determination Date, the Commercial Paper Rate
shall be the Money Market Yield of the average for the offered rates, as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time,
on that Interest Determination Date, of three leading dealers of commercial paper in The City of New York selected by the
calculation agent (after consultation with us) for commercial paper having the specified Index Maturity placed for an industrial
      issuer whose bond rating is “AA”, or the equivalent, by a nationally recognized rating agency.

10

If fewer than three dealers are providing quotes, the rate of interest on the Commercial Paper Rate note with
respect to the following Interest Reset Period shall be the rate of interest as in effect on such Interest Determination Date. 

          “Money Market Yield” shall be a yield
(expressed as a percentage) calculated in accordance with the following
formula: 

	
 
	
 
	
 
	
 

	
 
	
Money Market
 Yield = 
	D x 360
	     x 100 
	
 
	
360
 - (D x M)

where “D”
refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted on a bank
discount basis and expressed as a decimal and “M” refers to the actual number
of days in the period for which interest is being calculated. 

          Determination
of Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate. If an
Interest Rate Basis for this Note is the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate,
as indicated above, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate shall be
determined on each applicable Interest Determination Date and shall be the rate
equal to the monthly weighted average cost of funds for the calendar month
preceding such Interest Determination Date as set forth under the caption “11th
District” on Reuters page COF1/ARMS (or such other page as is specified in the applicable pricing supplement)
as of 11:00 a.m., San Francisco time, on such Interest Determination Date. If such rate does
not so appear, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate shall be the FHLB Index for the
calendar month preceding the date of such announcement. If the Federal Home Loan Bank of
San Francisco fails to announce such rate for the calendar month next preceding such
Interest Determination Date, then the rate of interest on the Eleventh District Cost of
Funds Rate notes with respect to the following Interest Reset Period shall be the rate
of interest as in effect on such Interest Determination Date. 

          Determination
of Federal Funds Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis
specified on the face hereof is the Federal Funds Rate, the Federal Funds Rate
with respect to this Note shall be determined on each Interest Determination
Date and shall be the rate on such date for Federal Funds as published in
H.15(519) prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, under the heading “Federal Funds Effective”, as such rate is
displayed on Reuters Screen FEDFUNDS1 Page (or any other pages as may replace such pages on such service).

The following procedures will apply if the rate cannot be set as described above:

	 

	
      (a)
	 
	 
	 	
      If the rate does not appear on the Reuters Screen FEDFUNDS1 Page provided by Reuters (or any such other page that may replace that page on that service or a successor service) or is not published in H.15(519) prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, then the
      Federal Funds Rate will be the rate with respect to such Interest Determination Date as published in H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying such rate, under the caption “Federal Funds (Effective)”.

	 

	
    (b)
	 	
     
	 	
    If the rate does not appear on the Reuters Screen FEDFUNDS1 Page provided by Reuters
    (or any such other page that may replace that page on that service or a successor service or is not published in H.15(519),
    H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 p.m., New       York City time, on the Calculation Date,
    the Federal Funds Rate will be the arithmetic mean of the rates, as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day
    following such Interest Determination Date, for the last transaction in overnight federal funds arranged by three leading
    brokers of       federal funds transactions in The City of New York selected by the calculation agent (after consultation
    with the Company).

	 

	
    (c)
	 	
     
	 	
    If fewer than three brokers are providing quotes, the rate of interest on the Federal Funds Rate notes for that Interest Determination Date will be the same rate used in the prior Interest Reset Period.

    

          Determination
of LIBOR. If the Interest Rate Basis specified on
the face hereof is LIBOR, LIBOR with respect to this Note shall be determined
on each Interest Determination Date as follows: 

	 

	
      (a)
	 
	 
	 	
      With respect to any Interest Determination Date, LIBOR will be generally determined as the average of the offered rates for deposits in the Designated LIBOR Currency having the specified Index Maturity commencing on the related Interest Reset Date that appear on the Designated LIBOR Page as of 11:00 a.m.,
    London time, on that Interest Determination Date, if at least two offered rates appear on the Designated LIBOR Page; provided that if the specified Designated LIBOR Page by its terms provides only for a single rate, that single rate will be used.

	 

	
     
	 	
     
	 	
    If fewer than two offered rates appear on the Designated LIBOR Page, or, if no rate appears and the Designated LIBOR Page by it terms provides only for a single rate, LIBOR for that Interest Determination Date will be determined based on the rates on that Interest Determination Date at
      approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, at which deposits on that date in the Designated LIBOR Currency for the period of the specified Index Maturity are offered to prime banks in the London interbank market by four major banks in that market selected and identified by the Company and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 (or its foreign currency equivalent) that in the calculation agent’s judgment is representative for a single transaction in the Designated LIBOR Currency in such market at such time (a “Representative Amount”). The
      offered rates must begin on the second London Business Day immediately after the Interest Determination Date (or if pounds sterling is the Designated LIBOR Currency, commencing on such Interest Determination Date or, if euro is the Designated LIBOR Currency, beginning on the second
      TARGET Settlement Day immediately after such date).

	 

	
     
	 	
     
	 	
    The calculation agent will request the principal London office of each of these banks to quote its rate. If the calculation
    agent receives at least two quotations, LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of those quotations.

	 

	
    (b)
	 	
     
	 	
    If the calculation agent receives fewer than two quotations, LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., in the Principal Financial Center, on the Interest Determination Date by three major banks in the Principal Financial Center selected and identified by the Company.
      The rates will be for loans in the Designated LIBOR Currency to leading European banks having the specified Index Maturity, commencing on
      the Interest Reset Date and in a Representative Amount.

	 

	
    (c)
	 	
     
	 	
    If fewer than three banks provide quotes, the rate of interest on the LIBOR notes with respect to the following Interest Reset Period shall be the rate of interest as in effect on such Interest Determination Date.

    

11

          “Designated LIBOR Currency”
means the currency (including composite currencies and euro) specified on the face
hereof as the currency with respect to which LIBOR shall be calculated. If no
such currency is specified on the face hereof, the Designated LIBOR Currency
shall be U.S. dollars. 

          “Designated LIBOR Page”
means Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (in the case of Notes denominated in
euro, Sterling or U.S. dollars), Reuters Screen 3750 Page (in the case of Notes denominated in Japanese Yen), Reuters Screen LIBOR02
Page (in the case of Notes denominated in Swiss Francs) or in any such case or in any other case such other page as may be specified
in the Final Terms (or in each case, any other page as may replace such page on such service). 

          Unless
provided otherwise on the face hereof, “Principal
Financial Center” will be (i) the capital city of the country
issuing the currency in which the Notes are denominated or (ii) the capital
city of the country to which the Designated LIBOR Currency relates, as
applicable, except, in the case of (i) or (ii) above, that with respect to the
following currencies, the “Principal Financial Center” will be as indicated

          “TARGET Settlement Date”
means any day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement
Express Transfer (TARGET2) System is open. 

          Determination
of Prime Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis
specified on the face hereof is the Prime Rate, the Prime Rate with respect to
this Note shall be determined on each Interest Determination Date and shall be
the rate set forth on that Interest Determination Date in H.15(519) under the
heading “Bank Prime Loan”. 
The following procedures will apply if the rate cannot be set as described above:

	 

	
      (a)
	 
	 
	 	
      If the rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, then the Prime Rate will be the rate as published on such Interest Determination Date in H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying such
      rate under the caption “Bank Prime Loan”.

	 

	
    (b)
	 	
     
	 	
    If the rate is not published in H.15(519), H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, then the Prime Rate will be the average (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next higher one-hundred thousandth of a percentage
      point) of the rates publicly announced by each bank on the Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page as its prime rate or base lending rate for that Interest Determination Date.

	 

	
    (c)
	 	
     
	 	
    If fewer than four (but more than one) rates appear on the Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page, the Prime Rate will be the average of the prime rates (quoted on the basis of the actual number of days in the year divided by a 360-day year) as of the close of business on the Interest Determination
    Date by four major money center banks in The City of New York selected by the calculation agent (after consultation with us).

	 

	
    (d)
	 	
     
	 	
    If fewer than two rates appear, the Prime Rate will be determined based on the rates furnished in The City of New York by the appropriate number of substitute banks or trust companies organized and doing business under the laws of the United States, or any State thereof, having total equity
      capital of at least $500 million and being subject to supervision or examination by a Federal or State authority, as selected by the calculation agent (after consultation with us).

	 

	
    (e)
	 	
     
	 	
    If no banks are providing quotes, the rate of interest on the Prime Rate notes
    will remain the same as the rate of interest used for the prior Interest Reset Period.

    

          Determination
of Treasury Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis
specified on the face hereof is “Treasury Rate,” the Treasury Rate with respect
to this Note shall be the rate from the most recent auction of
direct obligations of the United States (“Treasury bills”) having the specified Index Maturity as it appears under
the caption “INVEST RATE” on either Reuters Screen USAUCTION10 Page or Reuters Screen USAUCTION11 Page (or such other page that may replace that page on that service or a successor service).

The following procedures will apply if the rate cannot be set as described above:

	 

	
      (a)
	 
	 
	 	
      If, by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date for an Interest Reset Period, Treasury bills of the specified Index Maturity have been auctioned on an Interest Determination Date during that
      Interest Reset Period, but the rate for such Interest Determination Date does not appear
      under the caption “INVEST RATE” on either Reuters Screen USAUCTION10 Page or Reuters Screen USAUCTION11 Page (or such other page that may replace that page on that service or a successor service), the
      rate will be the auction average rate on such Interest Determination Date of the rate for Treasury bills of the specified Index Maturity (expressed as a bond equivalent, on the basis of a year of 365
or 366 days as applicable, and applied on a daily basis) for such auction as otherwise announced by the U.S. Department of the
Treasury.

	 

	
    (b)
	 	
     
	 	
    If the rate cannot be set as described in (a) above by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, then the rate will be the Bond Equivalent Yield, on such Interest 

13

	 
	 
	 
	 	
      Determination Date, of the rate for Treasury bills of the specified Index Maturity as set forth in H.15(519), under the caption “U.S. Government securities/Treasury Bills/Auction high.”

	 

	
    (c)
	 	
     
	 	
    If the rate cannot be set as
    described in (b) above by 3 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, then the rate will be the Bond Equivalent
    Yield, on such Interest Determination Date, of the rate for Treasury bills of the specified Index Maturity as set forth in
    H.15 Daily Update, or       such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying such rate, under the
    caption “U.S. Government securities/Treasury Bills/Auction high.”

	 

	
    (d)
	 	
     
	 	
    If the rate cannot be set as
    described in (c) above by 3 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, then the rate will be the arithmetic mean of
    the     secondary market bid rates as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Interest Determination Date, of
    three     leading primary U.S.       government securities dealers in The City of New York selected by the calculation agent
    (after     consultation with us) for the issue of Treasury bills with the remaining maturity closest to the specified Index
    Maturity.

	 

	
    (e)
	 	
     
	 	
    If the rate cannot be set as described in (d) above, then the rate of interest on the Treasury Rate notes
    for that Interest Determination Date shall be the same rate of interest used in the prior Interest Reset Period.

    

          The
“Bond Equivalent Yield” means a
yield calculated in accordance with the following formula and expressed as a
percentage: 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
Bond
 Equivalent Yield 

	
 =        D x N

	
 

	
 

	
 

	

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
      360 - (D x
 M)

where “D”
refers to the applicable per annum rate for the security, quoted on a bank
discount basis and expressed as a decimal, “N” refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and “M” refers to
the actual number of days in the interest period for which interest is being
calculated. 

          CMT
Rate Note. If the Interest Rate Basis specified on
the face hereof is the CMT Rate, the CMT Rate with respect to this Note shall
be determined on each Interest Determination Date, and shall be the rate
displayed on the Designated CMT Reuters Page under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities”, under the column for the specified Index Maturity for:

(1) if the Designated CMT Reuters Page is FRBCMT, the rate for the Interest Determination Date; or

(2) if the Designated CMT Rueters Page is FEDCMT, the weekly or monthly average, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the Interest Determination Date occurs.

The following procedures will apply if the rate cannot be set as described above:

	 

	
      (a)
	 
	 
	 	
      if we do not specify any page, the Designated CMT Reuters Page will be FEDCMT for the most recent week. If that rate is no longer displayed on the relevant page, or if it is not displayed by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, then the CMT Rate will be the Treasury
      constant maturity rate for the specified Index Maturity as published in the relevant H.15(519).

	 

	
    (b)
	 	
     
	 	
    If the rate is no longer published in H.15(519), or is not published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, then the CMT Rate for that determination date will be the Treasury constant maturity rate for the specified Index Maturity (or other U.S. Treasury rate for such Index
      Maturity for that Interest Determination Date) as may then be published by either the Federal Reserve Board or the U.S. Department of the Treasury that the calculation agent determines to be comparable to the rate formerly displayed on the Designated CMT Reuters Page and published in
      the relevant H.15(519).

	 

	
    (c)
	 	
     
	 	
    If that information is not provided by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, then the CMT Rate will be calculated as a yield to maturity, based on the average of the secondary market closing bid side prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on that Interest
      Determination Date reported, according to their written records, by three leading primary U.S. government securities dealers (each, a “Reference Dealer”) in The City of New York selected by the calculation agent. These dealers will be selected from five Reference Dealers selected by the
      calculation agent (after consultation with us) using the following procedures:

    

	 

	
      •
	 
	 
	 	
      The calculation agent will eliminate the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest) and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest), for the most recently issued direct noncallable fixed rate obligations of the United States (“Treasury Notes”) with
      an original maturity of approximately the specified Index Maturity and a remaining term to maturity of not less than the specified Index Maturity minus one year.

	 

	
    •
	 	
     
	 	
    If two Treasury notes with an original maturity as described in the preceding sentence have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the specified Index Maturity, the quotes for the Treasury Note with the shorter remaining term to maturity will be used.

    

	 

	
      (d)
	 
	 
	 	
      If the calculation agent cannot obtain three Treasury note quotations, the CMT Rate will be calculated as a yield to maturity based on the average of the secondary market bid side prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on that Interest Determination
      Date of three Reference Dealers in the City of New York selected by the calculation agent using the same method described above, for Treasury notes with an original maturity of the number of years
      that is the next highest to the specified Index Maturity with a remaining term to maturity closest to such Index Maturity and in an amount of at least $100,000,000. If three or four (and not five) of the Reference Dealers
      are providing quotes, then the CMT Rate will be based on the average of the offer prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotes will be eliminated.

	 

	
      (e)
	 
	 
	 	
      If fewer than three Reference Dealers are providing quotes, the rate of interest on CMT Rate notes with
      respect to the following Interest Reset Period shall be the rate of interest in effect on such Interest Determination Date.

14

          “Designated CMT  Reuters
Page” means the display on Reuters (or any successor service) on the page designated on the face hereof (or any
other page as may replace such page on such services). If no such page is specified on the face hereof, the Designated
CMT Reuters Page shall be FEDCMT, for the most recent week. 

          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum
Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any,
specified on the face hereof. The Calculation Agent shall calculate the
interest rate hereon in accordance with the foregoing on or before each
Calculation Date. The interest rate on this Note will in no event be higher
than the maximum rate permitted by New York law, as the same may be modified by
United States Federal law of general application. 

          At
the request of the holder hereof, the Calculation Agent will provide to the
holder hereof the interest rate hereon then in effect and, if determined, the
interest rate that will become effective as of the next Interest Reset Date. 

          Interest
payments on this Note will equal the amount of interest accrued from and
including the next preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest
has been paid (or from and including the date of issue, if no interest has been
paid) to but excluding the related Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that if the Interest
Reset Period with respect to this Note is daily or weekly, each interest
payment will include interest accrued from and including the date of issue or
from but excluding the last Regular Record Date to which interest has been
paid, as the case may be, through and including the Regular Record Date next
preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date, unless otherwise specified on
the face hereof; and provided, further, that
the interest payment with respect to this Note made on the Maturity Date will
include interest accrued to but excluding such Maturity Date. 

          Accrued
interest hereon shall be calculated by multiplying the face amount hereof by an
accrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor is computed by adding the
interest factor calculated for each day from the date of issue, or from the
last day to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, to the date for
which accrued interest is being calculated. Unless otherwise specified on the
face hereof, the interest factor for each such day will be computed by dividing
the interest rate applicable to such day by 360, if the Interest Rate Basis
specified on the face hereof is the CD Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the
Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR, the Prime
Rate or the CMT Rate, or by the actual number of days in the year if the
Interest Rate Basis specified on the face hereof is the Treasury Rate. If the
Interest Rate Basis specified on the face hereof is LIBOR and the currency
specified on the face hereof is Euro, the face of this Note may indicate that
the interest factor for each such day will be computed by dividing the rate
applicable to such day by the actual number of days in the year. 

15

          All
percentages resulting from any calculation will be to the nearest one
hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one millionths of a
percentage point rounded upwards (e.g.,
9.9876545% (or .09876545) would be rounded to 9.87655% (or.0987655), and all
dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation will be rounded to
the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward). 

          In
the case where the Maturity Date (or any redemption or repayment date) does not
fall on a Business Day, payment of premium, if any, or principal otherwise
payable on such date need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next
succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Maturity
Date (or any redemption or repayment date), and no interest shall accrue for
the period from and after the Maturity Date (or any redemption or repayment
date) to such next succeeding Business Day. 

          This
Note is unsecured and ranks pari passu with all other unsecured and
unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company. 

          This
Note, and any Note or Notes issued upon transfer or exchange hereof, is
issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of
1,000 units of the Specified Currency indicated on the face hereof or any
integral multiple of 1,000 units of such Specified Currency in excess thereof,
unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof. 

          The
Bank of New York Mellon has been appointed registrar for the Notes (the
“Registrar”, which term includes any successor registrar appointed by the
Company), and the Registrar will maintain at its office in The City of New York
a register for the registration and transfer of Notes. [In addition, the
Company has appointed The Bank of New York Mellon at its offices located at One
Canada Square, London E14 5AL, United Kingdom, as a paying agent and transfer
agent for the Notes.]8 This Note may be transferred at the aforesaid
office of the Registrar or other transfer agent by surrendering this Note for
cancellation, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form approved
by the Registrar and duly executed by the registered holder hereof in person or
by the holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon the
Registrar or other transfer agent shall issue in the name of the transferee or
transferees, in exchange herefor, a new Note or Notes having identical terms
and provisions for an equal aggregate principal amount in authorized
denominations, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein; provided, however, that the Registrar will
not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note that has been
called for redemption in whole or in part, or as to which the holder thereof
has elected to cause such Note to be repaid in whole or in part, except the
unredeemed or unpaid portion of Notes being redeemed or repaid in part, or to
register the transfer of or exchange Notes to the extent and during the period
so provided in the Indenture with respect to the redemption of Notes. Notes are
exchangeable at said office for other Notes of other authorized denominations
of equal aggregate principal amount having identical terms and provisions. All
such exchanges and transfers of Notes will be free of charge, but the Company
may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge in connection therewith. All Notes surrendered for exchange shall be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form approved by the Registrar
and executed by the registered holder in person or by the holder’s attorney
duly authorized in writing. The date of registration of any Note delivered upon
any exchange or transfer of Notes shall be such that no gain or loss of
interest results from such exchange or transfer. 

          In
case any Note shall at any time become mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, or
is apparently destroyed, lost or stolen, and such Note or evidence of the loss,
theft or destruction thereof (together with the indemnity hereinafter referred
to and such other documents or proof as may be required in the premises) shall
be delivered to the Registrar or other transfer agent, a new Note of like
tenor will be issued by the Company in exchange for the Note so mutilated or defaced,
or in lieu of the Note so destroyed or lost or stolen, but, in the case of any
destroyed or lost or stolen Note only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to
the Registrar and the Company that such Note was destroyed or lost or stolen
and, if required, upon receipt also of indemnity satisfactory to each of them.
All expenses and reasonable charges associated with procuring such indemnity
and with the preparation, authentication and delivery of a new Note shall be
borne by the owner of the Note mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen.

          The
Indenture provides that if an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture)
with respect to any series of debt securities issued under the Indenture,
including the series of Global Medium-Term Notes, Series A, of which this Note
forms a part, shall have occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee or the
holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the debt securities of such
series then outstanding under the Indenture, by notice in writing to the
Company (and to the Trustee if given by securityholders of such series), may
declare the principal of all debt securities of such series and interest
accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately, but upon certain conditions
such declarations may be annulled and past defaults may be waived (except a
continuing default in payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest on
such debt securities) by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the
debt securities of such series then outstanding. 

          If
the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to “Modified Payment upon
Acceleration or Redemption”, then (i) if the principal hereof is declared to be
due and payable as described in the preceding paragraph, the amount of
principal due and payable with respect to this Note shall be limited to the sum
of the Issue Price specified on the face hereof plus the Amortized Amount, (ii)
for the purpose of any vote of securityholders taken pursuant to the Indenture
prior to the acceleration of payment of this Note, the principal amount hereof
shall equal the amount that would be due and payable hereon, calculated as set
forth in clause (i) above, if this Note were declared to be due and payable on
the date of any such vote and (iii) for the purpose of any vote of
securityholders taken pursuant to the Indenture following the acceleration of
payment of this Note, the principal amount hereof shall equal the amount of principal
due and payable with respect to this Note, calculated as set forth in clause
(i) above. 

          The
Indenture permits the Company, when authorized by resolution of the Board of
Directors, and the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than 66
2/3% in aggregate principal amount of the notes of each series (each series
voting as a class) affected by such supplemental indenture at the time
outstanding, including the series of Global Medium-Term Series A, of which this
Note forms a part, to enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto
for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or
eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental
indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the notes
of each such series or the coupons appertaining to such notes; provided, however, that no such
supplemental indenture shall (i) extend the fixed maturity of any note, or
reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest, if any, thereon, or
reduce the principal amount or premium, if any, thereof, or make the principal
thereof or premium, if any, or interest, if any, thereon payable in any coin or
currency other than that provided in any note, or reduce the amount of the
principal of an Original Issue Discount note that would be due and payable upon
an acceleration of the maturity thereof or adversely affect the right of
repayment, if any, at the option of the holder without the consent of the
holder of each note so affected, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of
notes of any series, the holders of which are required to consent to any such
supplemental indenture, without the consent of the holder of each note so
affected. A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or
other provision of the Indenture which has expressly been included solely for
the benefit of one or more particular series of notes, or which modifies the
rights of the holders of notes of such series or of coupons appertaining to such
notes with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to
affect the rights under the Indenture of the holders of notes of any other
series or of coupons appertaining to such notes. 

          Except
as set forth below, if the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, if
any, on this Note is payable in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars
and such Specified Currency is not available to the Company for making payments
thereof due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances
beyond the control of the Company or is no longer used by the government of the
country issuing, or authority sponsoring, such Specified Currency or for the
settlement of transactions by public institutions within the international banking
community, then the Company will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the
holder of this Note by making such payments in U.S. dollars on the basis of the
most recently available market exchange rate for such Specified Currency, as
determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the date of such payment, or if such
rate is not available on such date, as of the most recent practicable date. If
a Specified Currency is unavailable solely because the country of issue has
replaced its currency with Euro pursuant to the entry of such country into the
European Economic and Monetary Union, the amounts payable will, beginning with
the date the replacement becomes effective, be made in Euro in conformity with
legally applicable measures adopted with reference to such country’s entry into
the European Economic and Monetary Union. Any payment made under such
circumstances in U.S. dollars or Euro, as the case may be, where the required
payment is in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars or Euro, as the case
may be, will not constitute an Event of Default. 

17

          All
determinations referred to above made by the Company or its agent shall be at
its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive
for all purposes and binding on holders of Notes. 

          So
long as this Note shall be outstanding, the Company will cause to be maintained
an office or agency for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any,
and interest on this Note as herein provided in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York, [and in London]9 and an office or agency in said
Borough of Manhattan [and in London]10 for the registration,
transfer and exchange as aforesaid of the Notes. The Company may designate
other agencies for the payment of said principal, premium, if any, and interest
at such place or places (subject to applicable laws and regulations) as the
Company may decide. So long as there shall be any such agency, the Company
shall keep the Trustee advised of the names and locations of such agencies, if
any are so designated. 

          With
respect to moneys paid by the Company and held by the Trustee or any Paying
Agent for the payment of the principal of or interest or premium, if any, on
any Notes that remain unclaimed at the end of two years after such principal,
interest or premium shall have become due and payable (whether at maturity or
upon call for redemption or otherwise) such moneys shall be so repaid to the
Company. Upon such repayment all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent
with respect to such moneys shall thereupon cease, without, however, limiting
in any way any obligation that the Company may have to pay the principal of or
interest or premium, if any, on this Note as the same shall become due. 

          No
provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation
of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the time, place, and rate,
and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed unless otherwise agreed between the Company and the registered
holder of this Note.

          The
Company or any agent of the Company, the Registrar or the Trustee may treat the
holder in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the
Registrar, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary. 

          [For
so long as this Note is listed on the London Stock Exchange and the rules of
the London Stock Exchange so require, all notices to the holder hereof shall
also be published in the Financial Times
or other English language daily newspaper of general circulation in London or
in any other manner which complies with the applicable rules and regulations of
the London Stock Exchange. If the Notes are listed on any stock exchange or
subject to the rules of any competent authority, notices to the holders may be
effected in any manner which complies with the applicable rules and
regulations.]10 

          No
recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any,
or the interest on, this Note, for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in
respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or any indenture
supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or
director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor
corporation, either directly or through the Company or any successor
corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law or
by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such
liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for
the issuer hereof, expressly waived and released. 

          This
Note shall for all purposes be governed by, and construed in accordance with,
the laws of the State of New York. 

          As
