BEFORE GIVING A GIFT, engaging in customer entertainment or reimbursing customer travel expenses, make sure you understand applicable legal requirements, the customer’s own rules and GE corporate and business guidelines.

MAKE SURE RECORDS OF SUCH EXPENDITURES accurately reflect the true nature of the transaction.

NEVER OFFER A BUSINESS COURTESY, such as a gift, contribution or entertainment, under circumstances that might create the appearance of an impropriety.

NEVER OFFER, PROMISE, PAY OR AUTHORIZE anything of value (such as money, goods or services) to a government official or employee of a customer to obtain or retain an improper advantage.

NEVER GIVE A GRATUITY or other payment to government officials or employees to expedite a routine administrative action without fully disclosing it to the GE National Executive or GE legal counsel. Some national laws that prohibit bribery outside that nation include an exception for “facilitating payments” to expedite a routine administrative action to which a person is otherwise entitled. These payments are often illegal under local anti-bribery laws, and GE strongly discourages them. Make sure you understand the difference between a bribe — corruptly giving someone else a thing of value in exchange for exercising discretion in your favor — and a facilitating payment, which involves the payment of a small amount of money to expedite a routine action to which you are entitled.

NEVER CONTRIBUTE COMPANY FUNDS or other company assets for political purposes in the United States
