Explanation of Responses:

(1)  The securities were acquired in connection with the closing of the Agreement and Plan of Merger Among General Electric
Company ("GE"), Ruby Merger Corp. and Imatron, Inc ("Imatron") (the "Merger"). Upon the closing of the Merger, the shares of
Imatron stock were converted into the right to receive 0.051 shares of GE common stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares.
General Electric now owns 100% of the outstanding common stock of Imatron.
