      April 25, 2007, the shareowners of the General Electric Company (the &#8220;Company&#8221;)
      approved the General Electric 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the &#8220;Plan&#8221;) at the
      annual meeting of shareowners. Any salaried employee of the Company will be
      eligible to participate in the Plan. The Plan will be administered by a
      committee of the Company&#8217;s Board of Directors consisting of at least three
      non-employee directors. The committee may award stock options in the form of
      nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options, or stock appreciation
      rights, each with a maximum term of ten years. The committee may also award
      restricted stock and restricted stock units and establish the applicable
      restrictions. In addition, the committee may grant performance awards and other
      stock-based awards, with performance awards payable to, or exercisable by,
      the
      participant upon the achievement of performance goals during performance
      periods. The maximum number of shares as to which stock options and stock awards
      may be granted under the Plan is 500,000,000, of which no more than 250,000,000
      may be available for awards granted in any form provided for under the Plan
      other than options or stock appreciation rights. Shares surrendered for the
      payment of the exercise price or withholding taxes under stock options or stock
      appreciation rights, and shares repurchased in the open market with the proceeds
      of an option exercise, may not again be made available for issuance under the
      Plan. This description of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference
      to
      the actual Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and is hereby
      incorporated by reference. </font></div>

      must be elected by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in

      if,
      as of the record date, there are more nominees for election than positions
      on
      the Board of Directors to be filled. The amended Certificate of Incorporation

      nominee who receives a greater number of votes cast against his or her election
      than in favor of such election must immediately tender his or her resignation,

      Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and excluding the nominee in
      question, whether to accept the resignation at its next regularly scheduled

Item
      5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors;
      Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangement of Certain
      Officers
On
      April 25, 2007, the shareowners of the General Electric Company (the "Company")
      approved the General Electric 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan") at the
      annual meeting of shareowners. Any salaried employee of the Company will be
      eligible to participate in the Plan. The Plan will be administered by a
      committee of the Company's Board of Directors consisting of at least three
      non-employee directors. The committee may award stock options in the form of
      nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options, or stock appreciation
      rights, each with a maximum term of ten years. The committee may also award
      restricted stock and restricted stock units and establish the applicable
      restrictions. In addition, the committee may grant performance awards and other
      stock-based awards, with performance awards payable to, or exercisable by,
      the
      participant upon the achievement of performance goals during performance
      periods. The maximum number of shares as to which stock options and stock awards
      may be granted under the Plan is 500,000,000, of which no more than 250,000,000
      may be available for awards granted in any form provided for under the Plan
      other than options or stock appreciation rights. Shares surrendered for the
      payment of the exercise price or withholding taxes under stock options or stock
      appreciation rights, and shares repurchased in the open market with the proceeds
      of an option exercise, may not again be made available for issuance under the
      Plan. This description of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference
      to
      the actual Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and is hereby
      incorporated by reference.
Item
      5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal
      Year
Amendment
      of Certificate of Incorporation
On
      April 25, 2007, the shareowners of the Company approved an amendment to the
      Company's Certificate of Incorporation at the annual meeting of shareowners
      pursuant to which each director nominee in a non-contested director election
      must be elected by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in
      favor
      of or against the election of such director nominee at a meeting of shareowners.
      In a contested election, directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes
      cast at a meeting of shareowners. An election will be considered contested
      if,
      as of the record date, there are more nominees for election than positions
      on
      the Board of Directors to be filled. The amended Certificate of Incorporation
      became effective on April 26, 2007.
Amendments
      of By-laws
Effective
      April 26, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the following
      amendments to the Company's By-laws:
Director
Resignation
      Policy
In
      connection with the shareowner approval of the amendment to the Company's
      Certificate of Incorporation described above, the Board amended Article II,
      Section C of the Company's By-Laws to conform its existing director resignation
      policy to the new majority vote standard. Under New York law, an incumbent
      director who is not re-elected may remain in office until his or her successor
      is elected and qualified, continuing as a "holdover director". Pursuant to the
      amendment, in any non-contested election of directors, any incumbent director
      nominee who receives a greater number of votes cast against his or her election
      than in favor of such election must immediately tender his or her resignation,
      and the Board of Directors will decide, through a process managed by the
      Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and excluding the nominee in
      question, whether to accept the resignation at its next regularly scheduled
      Board meeting. The Board's explanation of its decision must be promptly
      disclosed on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
      "SEC").
2
Advance
      Notice Provision
The
      Board amended Article VII of the Company's By-Laws to add an advance notice
      provision. Pursuant to this amendment, if a shareowner wishes to present either
      (1) a proposal relating to director nominations or (2) a proposal relating
      to a
      matter other than director nominations, otherwise than pursuant to Rule 14a-8
      of
      the proxy rules of the SEC, the shareowner must comply with the procedures
      contained in the amended by-law. These procedures include timely notice to
      the
      Company's Secretary of such proposal and specific requirements as to the content
      of the proposal. For a notice to be timely, any such proposal must be delivered
      to the Company's Secretary not later than the close of business on the 90th day
      prior to the anniversary date of the most recent annual meeting of shareowners.
      If the date of the annual meeting of shareowners is more than 30 days earlier
      or
      later than such anniversary date, then the notice must be delivered not later
      than the close of business on the 75th day prior to the anniversary date of
      the
      most recent annual meeting of shareowners. The Board adopted a similar provision
      for special meetings where directors are elected.
The
      foregoing descriptions of the Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws are
      qualified in their entirety by reference to the actual Certificate of
      Incorporation and By-laws, which are filed as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2,
      respectively, to this Form 8-K and are hereby incorporated by reference.
