(1)	the total aggregate principal amount outstanding and the total aggregate principal amount tendered as of the Early Participation Date for each table is calculated by converting each Sterling Securities and each Euro Securities into U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rates of US$1.3338 per £1.00 and US$1.1204 per €1.00, as reported on the Bloomberg screen page “FXIP” under the heading “FX Rate vs. USD” at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on November 24, 2021.

As previously announced, the applicable “Reference Yield” and the resulting “Total Consideration” payable for each series of Fixed Spread Securities (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) per $1,000, £1,000 or €1,000 principal amount of such series of Fixed Spread Securities included in the Tender Offers will be determined at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on November 29, 2021 (the “Pricing Determination Date”). See the Offer to Purchase for additional information.

In order to calculate the New Maximum Amounts in U.S. dollars, the aggregate principal amount of the Sterling Securities and the Euro Securities validly tendered and not validly withdrawn must be converted into U.S. dollars. The Tender Offers are amended hereby to use the applicable exchange rates at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on November 24, 2021 (as opposed to the Pricing Determination Date (as defined above)), as reported on the Bloomberg screen page “FXIP” under the heading “FX Rate vs. USD” solely for purposes of determining the U.S. dollar equivalent aggregate principal amount of the Sterling Securities and the Euro Securities validly tendered and not validly withdrawn. All other terms and conditions of the tender offers set forth in the Offer to Purchase remain unchanged.

Withdrawal rights for each Tender Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 24, 2021, and have not been extended. The Early Payment Date for each Tender Offer is December 1, 2021 and the Expiration Date is 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on December 9, 2021, unless extended or earlier terminated by GE. Consummation of each Tender Offer is subject to certain conditions (as described in the Offer to Purchase). Given that the aggregate principal amount of the Securities validly tendered in each Tender Offer prior to the Early Participation Date exceeds the applicable Maximum Amount, GE will not accept any further tenders of such Securities.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This announcement contains “forward-looking statements”—that is, statements related to future, not past, events. These forward-looking statements often address our expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “would,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “target,” “preliminary,” or “range.” Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those indicated or anticipated by such forward-looking statements. The inclusion of such statements should not be regarded as a representation that such plans, estimates or expectations will be achieved. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such plans, estimates or expectations include, among others, (1) the ability to effect the spin-off transactions and to meet the conditions related thereto, (2) potential uncertainty during the pendency of the spin-off transactions that could affect GE’s financial performance, (3) the possibility that the spin-off transactions will not be completed within the anticipated time period or at all, (4) the possibility that the spin-off transactions will not achieve their intended benefits, (5) the possibility of disruption, including changes to existing business relationships, disputes, litigation or unanticipated costs in connection with the spin-off transactions, (6) uncertainty of the expected financial performance of GE or the separated companies following completion of the spin-off transactions, (7) negative effects of the announcement or pendency of the spin-off transactions on the market price of GE’s securities and/or on the financial performance of GE, (8) evolving legal, regulatory and tax regimes, (9) changes in general economic and/or industry specific conditions, (10) actions by third parties, including government agencies, and (11) other risk factors as detailed from time to time in GE’s reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including GE’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, GE’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2021, June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021, GE’s current reports on Form 8-K and other documents filed by GE with the SEC. The foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive.

These or other uncertainties may cause our actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they were made, and we disclaim and we do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement in this announcement, except as required by applicable law or regulation.
