this Note is intended to be a New Global Note, entered in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems, on the Maturity Date specified above (except to the extent redeemed or repaid prior to the Maturity Date) or, (a) if indicated hereon that this Note is not intended to be a New Global Note, in accordance with the Amortization Schedule set out in Schedule A-2 hereto or (b) if indicated hereon that this Note is intended to be a New Global Note, in accordance with the records of the relevant Clearing Systems and to pay interest thereon at the Interest Rate per annum specified above from the Original Issue Date specified above until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment (except as provided below), in arrears monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually as specified above as the Interest Payment Period on each Fixed Interest Payment Date (as specified above), commencing with the first Fixed Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, and on the Maturity Date (or any other redemption or repayment date specified above).

 

If indicated hereon that this Note is intended to be a New Global Note, the nominal amount of Notes represented by this Note shall be the aggregate amount from time to time entered in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems. The records of the relevant Clearing Systems (which expression in this Note means the records that each relevant Clearing System holds for its customers which reflect the amount of such customer’s interest in the Notes) shall be conclusive evidence of the nominal amount of Notes represented by this Note and, for these purposes, a statement issued by a relevant Clearing System stating the nominal amount of Notes represented by this Note at any time shall be conclusive evidence of the records of the relevant Clearing System at that time.

 

Payments due in respect of Notes for the time being represented by this Note shall be made to the bearer of this Note and each payment so made will discharge the Company’s obligations in respect thereof. Any failure to make the entries referred to above shall not affect such discharge.

 

Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent Fixed Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from the Original Issue Date, until the principal hereof has been paid or duly made available for payment, in each case, upon Certification. Upon the payment of interest on this Note, the Fiscal and Paying Agent (as defined below) shall (a) if indicated hereon that this Note is not intended to be a New Global Note, cause Schedule A-1 of this Note to be endorsed or (b) if indicated hereon that this Note is intended to be a New Global Note promptly provide details to the relevant Clearing Systems in order for the records of the relevant Clearing Systems to be updated and remain at all times accurate, in each case to reflect such payment of interest and the amount of interest so paid shall be noted. No payments on this Note will be made at any office or agency maintained by the Company in the United States for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on this Note, nor will any such payment be made by mail to an address in the United States or by transfer to an account maintained by the holder of this Note with a bank in the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Note is payable in U.S. dollars and if payment in U.S. dollars of the full amount payable on this Note at the offices of all paying agencies outside the United States would be illegal or effectively precluded as a result of exchange controls or similar restrictions, payment on this Note will be made by a paying agency in the United States, if such paying agency, under applicable law and regulations, would be able to make such payment. Prior to the Exchange Date, payments of interest, if any, on this Note will be made only to the extent of, and upon, Certification. After the Exchange Date, the holder of this Note will not be entitled to receive any payment of principal or interest hereon.

 

This Note is issued in bearer form and represents a portion of a duly authorized issue of Euro Medium-Term Notes of the Series specified above, issued under an eighth amended and restated fiscal and paying agency agreement, dated as of May 12, 2006, among General Electric Capital Corporation, GE Capital Australia Funding Pty.

The Notes are issuable in bearer form (the “Bearer Notes”), with interest coupons attached (except in the case of Bearer Notes in global form), and (if so provided above) are also issuable in fully registered form, without coupons (the “Registered Notes” and, together with the Bearer Notes, the “Notes”).

Except as otherwise provided herein, this Note is governed by the terms and conditions of the Permanent Global Fixed Rate Bearer Note (the “Permanent Global Fixed Rate Bearer Note”) (or if so specified above, the definitive Fixed Rate Bearer Notes or definitive Fixed Rate Registered Notes) to be issued in exchange for this Note, which terms and conditions are hereby incorporated by reference herein mutandis and shall be binding on the Company and the holder hereof as if fully set forth herein.

 

This Note is exchangeable in whole or from time to time in part for (i) either, if indicated hereon that this Note is intended to be a New Global Note, interests recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems in a single Permanent Global Fixed Rate Bearer Note (equal to the principal amount of the Bearer Notes being exchanged theretofore represented by this Note) or, if indicated hereon that this Note is not intended to be a New Global Note, an interest (equal to the principal amount of the Bearer Notes being exchanged theretofore represented by this Note) in a single Permanent Global Fixed Rate Bearer Note or (ii) if so specified above, an equal principal amount of definitive Fixed Rate Bearer Notes and/or definitive Fixed Rate Registered Notes upon request of the Euroclear Operator or Clearstream, Luxembourg, acting on behalf of the owner of a beneficial interest in the Note, to the Fiscal and Paying Agent only on or after the Exchange Date upon Certification to the effect that the Notes to be issued upon such exchange are not being acquired by or on behalf of a United States person or, if a United States person has a beneficial interest in the Notes, that such person is (i) a Qualifying Foreign Branch purchasing for its own account or for resale, (ii) a United States person who acquires the Notes through a Qualifying Foreign Branch and who holds the obligation through such financial institution on the date of Certification, or (iii) a financial institution who acquires the Notes for purposes of resale during the Restricted Period other than for purposes of resale directly or indirectly to a United States person or to a person within the United States.

Except as otherwise provided herein, until exchanged for a Permanent Global Fixed Rate Bearer Note (or definitive Fixed Rate Bearer Notes and/or definitive Fixed Rate Registered Notes), this Note shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under the Fiscal Agency Agreement as a duly authenticated and delivered definitive Note.

 

If this Note is subject to a tax redemption or if all or any portion of the principal hereof is accelerated, each as described in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, payment of the amount due upon any such redemption or acceleration shall be subject to receipt of Certification.

 

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Fiscal and Paying Agent by manual signature, and, if indicated hereon that this Note is intended to be held in a manner which would allow Eurosystem eligibility, effectuated by the entity appointed as common safe-keeper by the relevant Clearing Systems, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Fiscal Agency Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.
