Certain United States Tax Considerations.

The following discussion supplements the discussion contained in the Prospectus Supplement dated April 16, 2002 under the heading "United States Tax Considerations." Prospective purchasers of Notes are advised to consult their own tax advisors with respect to tax matters relating to the Notes.

Notes Used as Qualified Replacement Property.

Prospective investors seeking to treat the Notes as "qualified replacement property" for purposes of section 1042 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), should be aware that, in order for the Notes to constitute such qualified replacement property, the Notes themselves and the issuer must meet certain requirements. In general, qualified replacement property is a "security" issued by a domestic corporation that did not, for the taxable year preceding the taxable year in which such security was purchased, have "passive investment income in excess of 25 percent of the gross receipts of such corporation for such preceding taxable year (the "Passive Income Test"). The term "securities," is defined pursuant to section 1042 of the Code to include bonds, debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness of a corporation in registered form. The Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") has in some cases expressed the view that the definition of "security" in section 354 of the Code (which generally does not include short-term debt instruments) may also be relevant in applying section 1042. The Company does not express any conclusion on whether the Notes constitute "securities" for purposes of section 1042 of the Code and potential investors should consult their own tax advisors as to the appropriate characterization of the Notes as qualified replacement property for this purpose.

Pricing Supplement No. 3826

 

Dated November 14, 2002

 

Rule 424(b)(3)-Registration Statement

 

No. 333-84462

In regards to the Passive Income Test, where the issuing corporation is in control of one or more corporations or such issuing corporation is controlled by one or more other corporations, all such corporations are treated as one corporation (the "Affiliated Group") for purposes of computing the amount of l) passive investment income for purposes of section 1042.

The Company believes that less than 25 percent of its Affiliated Group's gross receipts (which includes the General Electric Company and its controlled subsidiaries) are passive investment income for the taxable year ending December 31, 2001. In making this determination, the Company has made certain assumptions and used procedures which it believes are reasonable. However, the calculation and characterization of certain types of income (as active or passive investment income) in certain of the Affiliated Group's finance and insurance companies (the "Finance Companies") is not entirely clear as there are no Treasury regulations or rulings promulgated by the IRS that explain the calculation and characterization of such income in circumstances similar to those of the Company's Affiliated Group. Even if such categories of income were treated as passive investment income, the Company believes that the Affiliated Group's passive investment income did not exceed more than 25 percent of the Affiliated Group's gross receipts for the taxable year ending December 31, 2001. No assurance can be given as to whether the Company will continue to meet the Passive Income Test. It is, in addition, possible that the IRS may disagree with the manner in which the Company has calculated the Affiliated Group's gross receipts (including the characterization thereof) and passive investment income and the other conclusions reached herein.

Additional Information:

General.

The information contained in the Prospectus under the caption "Consolidated Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges" is hereby amended in its entirety, as follows:

At September 28, 2002 the Company had outstanding indebtedness totaling $252.640 billion, consisting of notes payable within one year, senior notes payable after one year and subordinated notes payable after one year. The total amount of outstanding indebtedness at September 28, 2002, excluding subordinated notes payable after one year was equal to $251.682 billion.

For purposes of computing the consolidated ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings consist of net earnings adjusted for the provision for income taxes, minority interest and fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest and discount on all indebtedness and one-third of rentals, which the Company believes is a reasonable approximation of the interest factor of such rentals.

US$ 100,000,000 Floating Rate Notes Due November 15, 2004

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I have acted as Counsel, Treasury Operations and Assistant Secretary for General Electric Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with (i) the issuance by the Company of USD 50,000,000 of its Global Medium-Term Notes, Series A, described in the Pricing Supplement referred to below (the "Notes") under an Amended and Restated Indenture dated as of February 27, 1997 as amended by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 3, 1999 and the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 2, 2001, each between the Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank (formerly known as The Chase Manhattan Bank), as trustee, (collectively, the "Indenture"), (ii) the sale and delivery of the Notes to you pursuant to (a) the Second Amended and Restated U.S. Distribution Agreement dated as of April 16, 2002 (the "Distribution Agreement"), between the Company and the agents named therein, and (b) the Terms Agreement dated as of November 14, 2002 (the "Terms Agreement") between the Company, Salomon Smith Barney and the agents named therein, in connection with the purchase from the Company by agents of the Notes. I have also acted as counsel for the Company with respect to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-84462) and all amendments thereto (as so amended, the "Registration Statement"). I have also acted as counsel for the Company in connection with the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act"): (i) the prospectus dated April 9, 2002 called the "Basic Prospectus," (ii) a prospectus supplement dated April 16, 2002 (the "Prospectus Supplement") relating to the Global Medium-Term Notes, Series A, and (iii) the Pricing Supplement No. 3823 dated November 12, 2002 (the "Pricing Supplement") relating to the Notes. The Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement and the Pricing Supplement, is herein called the "Prospectus", and references in this letter to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus as amended or supplemented and to amendments and supplements include all amendments and supplements relating to the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement and the Pricing Supplement to the date hereof except for supplements relating only to securities other than the Notes.

As such Counsel, Treasury Operations and Assistant Secretary, I have also examined such other documents, certificates and instruments and have made such investigation as I have deemed appropriate in order to give the opinions expressed herein.

Based upon the foregoing, it is my opinion that:

1. The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

2. The Company is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the ownership or leasing of its properties requires such qualification.

3. The Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and is a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms and has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

4. The Notes have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and, when executed and authenticated in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and delivered and paid for by the Agents as principal pursuant to the Terms Agreement, will be valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms and will entitle the holders thereof to the benefits of the Indenture.

5. Each of the Distribution Agreement and the Terms Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and is a valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as rights to indemnity and contribution thereunder may be limited under applicable federal or state law in the United States.

    1. Neither the execution, delivery and performance of the Distribution Agreement or Terms Agreement nor the issuance and sale of the Notes by the Company as provided in the Distribution Agreement and the Terms Agreement will contravene the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company or result in any violation of any of the terms or provisions of any law, rule or regulation of the United States (other than with respect to the applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws, as to which I express no opinion) or of any indenture, mortgage or other agreement or instrument known to me by which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is bound or any judgment, order or decree of any governmental body, agency or court having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

7. The statements contained in the Prospectus under the captions "Description of the Notes" and "Plan of Distribution" fairly present the matters referred to therein.

8. Each document incorporated by reference in the Prospectus which was filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act") (except for the financial statements and schedules and other financial and statistical material included therein or omitted therefrom, as to which I express no opinion) complied when so filed as to form in all material respects with the 1934 Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

9. The Registration Statement is effective under the 1933 Act and, to the best of my knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the 1933 Act or proceedings therefor initiated or threatened by the Commission.

10. The Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Pricing Supplement and any supplements and amendments thereto (except for the financial statements and schedules and other financial and statistical material included therein or omitted therefrom, and except for supplements and amendments relating only to securities other than the Notes, as to which I express no opinion) comply as to form in all material respects with the 1933 Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

Based upon my participation in the preparation of the Registration Statement and my review of the Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement and the Pricing Supplement and any amendments and supplements thereto (including documents incorporated by reference) and examination and discussion of the contents thereof, but without independent check or verification except with respect to the summary of the provisions of the Indenture and the Notes to which my opinion in paragraph 7 relates, I believe that (except for the financial statements and schedules and other financial and statistical material included therein or omitted therefrom, as to which I express no belief) the Registration Statement, at the time they became effective, did not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and the Prospectus does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

 

My opinions in paragraphs 3, 4 and 5, insofar as they relate to enforceability, are subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and to the effect of general equitable principles (regardless of whether the issue of enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

I am furnishing this opinion to you solely for your benefit in connection with the transaction herein contemplated, and this opinion is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose, or relied upon by, or delivered to, any other person, without my prior written approval in each instance. My opinion is limited to the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal law of the United States.

Very truly yours,
