      September 17, 2007, General Electric Company (GE), the parent company of General
      Electric Capital Services, Inc., committed to a plan to exit its Japanese
      personal loan business (Lake). GE made the decision to exit this business upon
      determining that, despite restructuring, Japanese regulatory limits for interest
      charges on unsecured personal loans did not permit us to earn an acceptable
      return. GE is actively pursuing a buyer and expects to complete the sale of
      this
      business by the end of the third quarter of 2008. In connection with this exit,
      we expect to record an after-tax loss in the range of $0.8 billion to $1.0
      billion in the third quarter of 2007, which represents the difference between
      the net book value of our Lake business and the projected sale price. We
      estimate that the total costs to be incurred in connection with this plan will
      be in the range of $0.9 billion to $1.1 billion, which includes approximately
      $0.1 billion of future cash expenditures. The results of Lake will be reported
      as a discontinued operation in the third quarter of 2007.</font></div>

      2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
On
      September 17, 2007, General Electric Company (GE), the parent company of General
      Electric Capital Services, Inc., committed to a plan to exit its Japanese
      personal loan business (Lake). GE made the decision to exit this business upon
      determining that, despite restructuring, Japanese regulatory limits for interest
      charges on unsecured personal loans did not permit us to earn an acceptable
      return. GE is actively pursuing a buyer and expects to complete the sale of
      this
      business by the end of the third quarter of 2008. In connection with this exit,
      we expect to record an after-tax loss in the range of $0.8 billion to $1.0
      billion in the third quarter of 2007, which represents the difference between
      the net book value of our Lake business and the projected sale price. We
      estimate that the total costs to be incurred in connection with this plan will
      be in the range of $0.9 billion to $1.1 billion, which includes approximately
      $0.1 billion of future cash expenditures. The results of Lake will be reported
      as a discontinued operation in the third quarter of 2007.
Item
      8.01 Other Events
In
      addition, as a result of our previously disclosed plan to sell our U.S. mortgage
      business, WMC, we will report WMC as a discontinued operation in the third
      quarter of 2007.
Forward
      Looking Statements
This
      document contains "forward-looking statements" – that is, statements related to
      future, not past, events. In this context, forward-looking statements often
      address our expected future business and financial performance, and often
      contain words such as "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "believe,"
"seek," or "will." Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters
      that are, to different degrees, uncertain. For us, particular uncertainties
      that
      could adversely or positively affect our future results include: the behavior
      of
      financial markets, including fluctuations in interest and exchange rates and
      commodity and equity prices; the commercial and consumer credit environment;
      the
      impact of regulation and regulatory, investigative and legal actions; strategic
      actions, including acquisitions and dispositions; future integration of acquired
