Item 5. Other Events

     On March 30, 2004, General Electric Company (GE) filed a Form 8-K providing reclassified information about the January 1, 2004, reorganization of our businesses. As a result of an arithmetic error, the 2000 segment profit for one of our businesses and 2000 corporate items and eliminations were incorrectly presented on page 48 of Exhibit 99(d). Attached as Exhibit 99 is a revised Summary of Operating Segments reflecting the corrected data. The information included in this Form 8-KA affects only disclosures related to 2000 segment results and in no way restates or revises the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of GE.
