Exhibit 10.30

Notice to Executive: This is a legal document. You are advised to consult with an

attorney prior to signing this Agreement.

TRANSITION & SEPARATION AGREEMENT & RELEASE

This is a Separation Agreement and Release (the “Agreement”) between GE Vernova

Inc. (the “Company”) and Rachel Gonzalez (the “Executive”) and is made as of January 31,

2025 (the “Signing Date”).

1.Separation Date and Transition Period.

a.Separation Date. Executive will continue to serve in employment with the

Company in her current capacities as General Counsel and Secretary of the

Company through the close of business on May 16, 2025 or such earlier date as

may be determined by the Executive and/or the Company (as applicable, the

“Separation Date”).

b.Transition Period. The period between the Signing Date and the Separation Date

will be a transition period (the “Transition Period”), during which the Company

will pay the Executive her regular base salary and benefits and during which

Executive will continue to have ordinary duties and responsibilities of General

Counsel and Secretary, as agreed between Executive and the Company’s Chief

Executive Officer (“CEO”). The Executive shall cease to serve as the Company’s

General Counsel and Secretary concurrent with the Separation Date. If, prior to

May 16, 2025, the Company terminates the Executive’s employment for Cause

(as defined in the Executive’s offer letter dated February 27, 2023 (the “Offer

Letter”) or the Executive elects to resign the Executive’s employment for any

reason (other than following a material breach of this Agreement by the Company

which is not promptly cured by the Company (a “Company Breach”)), the

Executive will not be eligible to receive the Severance Benefits (as defined

below) or any salary payments, benefits, or other compensation from the

Company following the Executive’s last day of employment except to the extent

set forth in Section 2 below. However, if the Executive remains employed

through May 16, 2025, or if, prior to May 16, 2025, the Company terminates the

Executive’s employment without Cause or if the Executive resigns following a

Company Breach or in the event of the Executive’s death or Disability (each, a

“Qualifying Separation”), and provided that the Executive timely enters into this

Agreement and the Supplemental Release (as defined below), the Company will

pay or provide the Executive with the Severance Benefits. “Disability” for

purposes of this Agreement shall mean a physical or mental illness or disability

that, in the Company’s determination that is made in good faith, prevents the

Executive from performing the duties of the Executive’s position for a period of

more than any three (3) consecutive months or for periods aggregating more than

twenty-six (26) weeks. The Executive hereby resigns, effective as of the

Separation Date, from any and all positions that the Executive holds as an officer

of the Company, and agrees that the Executive will execute and deliver any and

all documents requested of the Executive that are reasonably necessary to

effectuate such resignation(s). During the Transition period through the

Separation Date, the Executive shall continue to be indemnified for her services

on behalf of the Company on the same basis that she was covered immediately

prior to the execution of this Agreement and she shall continue to be covered

under the applicable directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies procured

- 2 -

by the Company on the same basis that she was covered prior to the execution of

this Agreement.

2.Payments/Benefits. Regardless of whether the Executive enters into this Agreement and/

or the Supplemental Release and Noncompetition Agreement attached as Exhibit A (the

“Supplemental Release”), the Executive will be eligible for the following:

a.Final Wages. On the Separation Date, the Executive will receive payment for the

Executive’s final wages accrued through the Executive’s last day of employment,

including without limitation, payment for unused or accrued paid time off and any

expenses that have been properly submitted by the Executive in accordance with

Company policy and which remain unreimbursed as of the Separation Date.

b.COBRA Continuation. The Executive may, if eligible, elect to continue receiving

group medical insurance pursuant to the “COBRA” law, in which event, except as

explicitly set forth in Section 3(b), all applicable premium costs for COBRA shall

be paid by the Executive, on a monthly basis for as long as, and to the extent that,

the Executive remains eligible for COBRA continuation.

c.Equity. The treatment of any outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, and

performance stock units shall be determined by the terms of the applicable award

agreement and applicable equity plans.

d.Other Benefits. Any other benefits for which the Executive is or may be eligible

will be treated in accordance with their current terms.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Executive does not enter into this Agreement and/or the

Supplemental Release, the Company shall pay the Executive twelve months of severance

pay in a lump sum pursuant to the terms of her Offer Letter, as such Offer Letter may be

amended in writing by the Company and the Executive from time to time.

3.Consideration. In the event of a Qualifying Separation only, and subject to the Executive

having timely signed and returned this Agreement and the Supplemental Release and not

having timely revoked either (as described below), the Company will provide the

Executive with the following severance benefits (the “Severance Benefits”):

a.Severance Pay. The Company will pay the Executive a lump sum payment equal

to eighteen (18) months of the Executive’s current base salary. Accordingly, the

Executive’s lump sum payment shall equal $1,350,000, less applicable taxes and

withholdings, and shall be paid, subject to Section 15, within 60 days of the

Executive’s Separation Date or such later date as is required pursuant to Section

409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the guidance issued thereunder.

b.Health Benefits. Following the Separation Date, if the Executive is eligible for

and timely elects COBRA health care continuation coverage for medical, dental,

and/or vision, her cost for medical, dental, and/or vision COBRA coverage for

eighteen months after the Separation Date will be the same amount as if she had

remained actively employed (i.e., will be subsidized by the Company). The

Executive must pay the applicable cost for COBRA coverage directly to the

COBRA Administrator following the Separation Date. Except as otherwise

provided in this “Health Benefits” paragraph, the Company’s regular COBRA

rules and procedures will apply.

- 3 -

c.Prorated 2025 Bonus. The Executive shall be eligible to receive a bonus for 2025

based on Company performance (and any individual subjective performance goals

shall be treated as being achieved at not less than target), prorated based on the

Executive’s period of employment during 2025 and paid, subject to Section 15, in

accordance with the terms of the Annual Executive Plan and the policies and

procedures thereunder, or on such later date as is required pursuant to Section

409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the guidance issued thereunder.

d.Equity. The Company’s Compensation and Human Capital Committee has

determined that the Executive is eligible to participate in the Company’s LTI

good leaver program (the “LTI Program”), such that, in accordance with and

subject to the terms of the LTI Program, a pro-rata portion (the “Pro-Rated

Amount”) of each outstanding equity award over the Company’s common stock

held by the Executive on the Separation Date, which award has not been

internally designated as a “Founders Grant” and which award has been held by the

Executive, as of the Separation Date, for at least one (1) year from the applicable

date of grant thereof,  shall remain outstanding and shall continue to vest, in

substantially equal amounts, over the remaining vesting schedule of the award,

subject to the Executive’s continued compliance in all material respects with the

terms of this Agreement. The Pro-Rated Amount shall be determined using the

following formula (the “Pro-Ration Formula”):

(a) divided by (b) multiplied by (c) minus (d), where:

(a)is number of the days the Executive was employed during the

award’s aggregate vesting period;

(b)is the total number of days in the award’s aggregate vesting period;

(c)is the total number of shares originally subject to the award; and

(d)is the number of shares subject to the award that have already vested.

Any equity award that was granted subject to both performance-based and

service-based vesting and for which performance has already been measured,

including, for the avoidance of doubt, any such equity award granted by General

Electric Company (“GE”) and assumed by the Company, shall be treated as

described above.  However, with respect to equity awards that are subject to both

performance-based and service-based vesting and for which performance has not

yet been measured, the Pro-Ration Formula shall apply to the lesser of the number

of shares issuable upon target level of performance and actual performance. In

addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the applicable award

agreement, the Pro-Rated Amount of each outstanding stock option held by the

Executive shall remain exercisable until the applicable original option expiration

date (as set forth in the applicable option award agreement).

For the avoidance of doubt, (i) no portion of any Founders Grant shall be pro-

rated and (ii) each outstanding award other than the Pro-Rated Amount thereof

- 4 -

shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreement

as in effect on the date hereof (as modified by this Agreement).

e.Relocation Reimbursement.  The Company will reimburse the Executive for her

expenses reasonably incurred in relocating from Cambridge, Massachusetts to the

State of Washington (or such other location that she determines) in an amount not

to exceed $150,000.  The reimbursement will be provided for all such incurred

expenses, including, without limitation, moving household furnishing and goods

and automobiles and real estate brokerage and other related expenses with respect

to her current and future residences. Any and all expenses subject to

reimbursement under this provision shall be substantiated in accordance with

Company policy and shall be made or provided in accordance with the

requirements of Section 409A to the extent that such reimbursements or in-kind

benefits are subject to Section 409A, including, where applicable, the

requirements that (i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during the

Executive’s lifetime, (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement

during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in

any other calendar year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be

made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which

the expense is incurred and (iv) the right to reimbursement is not subject to set off

or liquidation or exchange for any other benefit. 

The Executive will not be eligible for, nor shall the Executive have a right to receive, any

payments or benefits from GE or the Company following the Separation Date other than as set

forth in Sections 2 and 3.  By signing this Agreement, the Executive expressly acknowledges that

the Severance Benefits referenced herein shall supersede any severance benefits referenced in

any other agreement by and between the Executive and GE or the Company or any severance

plan or policy, including without limitation, in the Offer Letter and the Annual Executive

Incentive Plan.

4.Executive Acknowledgments and Representations. The Executive acknowledges,

represents and agrees:

a.Sufficiency of Consideration. The Executive agrees that the Executive’s

opportunity to continue to remain employed during the Transition Period and

eligibility for the Severance Benefits are sufficient consideration for this

Agreement and the Supplemental Release.

b.Taxes & Withholdings. All payments and benefits received under this Agreement

are subject to applicable taxes and withholdings. The Executive understands that,

in certain circumstances, the withholding taxes on some or all of such payments or

benefits may come due before such payments or benefits are paid, settled or

received by the Executive.

c.Time to Review & Revoke. The Executive has 21 days to consider this

Agreement and the Supplemental Release and her waiver of rights under the Age

Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, before signing them, and can

revoke this Agreement and the Supplemental Release within 7 business days after

signing each document by sending written notice of that revocation to her HR

Executive (“HRE”) (the day following the revocation period of each document is

the “Effective Date” of each document). The Executive also agrees that the

Company hereby advises her to consult with an attorney of her choice before

- 5 -

signing this Agreement. The Executive understands and agrees that by entering

into this Agreement, the Executive is waiving any and all rights or claims she

might have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended by the

Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, and that she has received consideration

beyond that to which she was previously entitled.

d.Disclosure of Past and Present Claims. Other than to the extent that this provision

is inconsistent with the activities permitted by the “Release of Claims,”

“Providing Information to Government Agencies and Other Protected Activity”

and the “Disclosure of Underlying Incidents” Sections of this Agreement

(collectively, the “Permitted Disclosures”), the Executive is not aware of (or has

already disclosed to the Company) any conduct by the Company or any of the

Releasees that she has any reason to believe violates or may violate any domestic

or foreign law or regulation or Company policy.

e.Alternative Dispute Resolution. The Executive agrees that the Solutions

Alternative Dispute Resolution (“ADR”) Agreement previously entered into (if

any) between the Executive and the Company (the “Company ADR”) remains in

effect. The Executive further agrees to submit to the Company ADR any claims

not released by this Agreement and covered by the Company ADR, or any claims

that arise after the date the Executive signs this Agreement, to the maximum

extent permitted by law, including but not limited to, disputes about the

Agreement itself; provided, however, that nothing in this arbitration provision is

intended to prevent the Executive or the Company from filing with a civil court of

competent jurisdiction a request for injunctive relief or obtaining such relief from

a civil court of competent jurisdiction if the award to which such party might

obtain in arbitration may be rendered ineffectual without provisional relief. The

Executive may ask her Company HRE for another copy of the Company ADR

document.

f.Company’s Reliance on Executive Representations. The Executive understands

that the Company is relying on the Executive’s representations and obligations

contained in this Agreement, including but not limited to her Release of Claims in

Section 5 (the “Release of Claims”) and the Supplemental Release.

g.No Claims of Discrimination/Retaliation/Sexual Harassment/Abuse. The

Executive acknowledges that none of the payments set forth in this Agreement are

related to claims raised alleging discrimination, harassment, sexual abuse or

retaliation.

5.Release of Claims.

a.In return for the consideration provided by this Agreement, including the

Executive’s continued employment with the Company through the Transition

Period and the Severance Benefits, the Executive, her heirs, assigns, and agents

waive and release all waivable claims of any kind (whether known or unknown,

and including those under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA, as

amended)) that the Executive may have against the Releasees (defined below),

including without limitation any claims which arise from or relate to her

employment and/or the termination of her employment with the Company or its

status or other characteristic or activity protected by law, violated any Company

policies, procedures, covenants or express or implied contracts of any kind

(including, for the avoidance of doubt, the policies, procedures, covenants or

affiliate or parent of the Company), violated any public policy, statutory or

common law (including tort), or are in any way obligated to pay her wages,

penalties, damages, expenses, costs or attorneys’ fees in relation to an alleged

violation of any waivable local, state1 or federal2 law; all common law claims

including, but not limited to, actions in defamation, intentional infliction of

emotional distress, misrepresentation, fraud, wrongful discharge, and breach of

contract (including, without limitation, and claims arising out of or related to the

Offer Letter); all state and federal whistleblower claims to the maximum extent

permitted by law; and any claim or damage arising out of the Executive’s

employment with and/or separation from the Company (including a claim for

retaliation) under any common law theory or any federal, state or local statute or

ordinance not expressly referenced herein.

Releasees include the Company, its past and present predecessors, successors and

assigns, and joint employers (including any professional employer organization

serving as an employer of record), all of their current and former direct and

indirect parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, divisions, and related business entities,

and, in their respective official capacities as such, all of their current and former

officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, representatives and employee

benefit programs (including the trustees, administrators, fiduciaries and insurers

of such programs). This Release does not waive any rights or claims that may

arise after the date the Executive executes this Agreement, or that cannot be

lawfully released. This Release does not modify or affect (i) any vested benefits

to which the Executive may be entitled under the terms of applicable Company

retirement plans or applicable law, (ii) any rights Executive has under this

Agreement, (iii) any rights to continued indemnification or coverage under

directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies procured by the Company or its

subsidiaries or affiliates (subject to the terms, conditions, and limitations thereof) and

- 7 -

(iv) Executive’s rights as an equity stakeholder or award holder in the Company.

Further, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Release or in this

Agreement shall be deemed to prohibit the Executive from filing a charge with, or

participating in any investigation or proceeding before, any local, state or federal

government agency, including, without limitation, the EEOC or a state or local

fair employment practices agency. The Executive retains the right to participate in

any such action but not the right to recover money damages or other individual

legal or equitable relief awarded by any such governmental agency, including any

payment, benefit, or attorneys’ fees, and hereby waives any right or claim to any

such relief; provided, however, that nothing herein shall bar or impede in any way

the Executive’s ability to seek or receive a monetary incentive award from any

governmental agency or regulatory authority in connection with information

provided to the governmental agency or regulatory authority.

The Executive agrees that by the later of (i) on, but not before, the Separation

Date; or (ii) 21 days after her receipt of this Agreement, she will enter into the

Supplemental Release covering the period from the Effective Date of this

Agreement to the Separation Date and agrees that her receipt of the Severance

Benefits will be contingent on her timely entering into the Supplemental Release.

b.In consideration for the Executive’s release of the Releasees, the Company, on

behalf of itself and its subsidiaries and affiliates, hereby waives and releases the

Executive from all waivable claims of any kind (whether known to the Company

or with respect to which the Company should reasonably be aware) that the

Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates may have against the Executive which

arise from or relate to her employment and/or the termination of her employment

with the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates; provided, however, that

notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this release (i) releases the Executive

from her continuing obligations or any other continuing obligations under the

terms of this Agreement, the Supplemental Release, or any other agreement

between the Executive and the Company or under the law, (ii) shall prevent the

Company from bringing claims to enforce this Agreement or any other agreement

between the Executive and the Company, or (iii) releases the Executive from any

claims arising out of or related to any embezzlement, fraudulent or criminal

conduct, willful misconduct or gross negligence by the Executive.

6.Providing Information to Government Agencies and Other Protected Activity.

a.Nothing in this Agreement, the Supplemental Release, or elsewhere shall prohibit

or restrict the Company or the Executive from lawfully filing a charge or

complaint with, initiating communications directly with, cooperating with,

providing information to, causing information to be provided to, testifying in or

otherwise assisting in an investigation by any governmental or regulatory agency,

entity, or official(s) (collectively, “Governmental Authorities”), including the

Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (the “EEOC”) or similar federal or

state employment practices agency, regarding a possible violation of any law, or

making any disclosures to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)

or other Governmental Authority or as may be protected under the whistleblower

provisions of any applicable law. Additionally, pursuant to the Defend Trade

Secrets Act of 2016, the Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable

- 8 -

under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that:

(a) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either

directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting

or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (b) is made to an attorney in

relation to a lawsuit for retaliation against the Executive for reporting a suspected

violation of law; or (c) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit

or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Nor does this Agreement

require the Executive to obtain prior authorization from the Company before

engaging in any conduct described in this Section, or to notify the Company that

the Executive has engaged in any such conduct.

Further, nothing in this Agreement limits the Executive’s right to receive and

retain an award from a government-administered whistleblower award program

for providing information directly to a Governmental Authority. However, the

Executive otherwise is waiving any right to recover monetary damages or any

other form of personal relief from the Releasees to the extent any such charge,

complaint, investigation or proceeding with Governmental Authorities asserts a

claim subject to the Release of Claims provision.

b.The Executive further understands that neither this Agreement nor the

Supplemental Release prohibits her from discussing her compensation or

restrictive covenants with others. Nothing in this Agreement or the Supplemental

Release prevents or restricts the Executive from speaking with an attorney retained

by the Executive or from filing or disclosing any facts necessary to receive

unemployment insurance, Medicaid, or other public benefits to which the

Executive may be entitled.

c.Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive understands that any and all

Covered Claims (as defined in the Company ADR procedure) or any Claims as

defined in Section 4(e) are subject to, and must be brought consistent with, the

terms of the Company ADR (see Section 4(e)).

7.Non-Disparagement. Except for Permitted Disclosures, the Executive agrees, subject to

any obligations she may have under applicable law, that she will not make or cause to be

made any statements or take any actions that disparage or in any way damage the

reputation of the Releasees or the Company or any of its affiliates, subsidiaries, agents,

officers, directors or employees.  In consideration therefor, the Company shall not make

or cause to be made, and shall instruct its directors and senior executive officers not to

make or cause to be made, any statements or take any actions that disparage or in any

way damage the reputation of the Executive.  Each party hereto may respond truthfully in

any dispute proceeding between such parties or to refute any false or incorrect statement

made by the other party hereto without being in violation of this Section 7.

8.Confidential Information. The Executive acknowledges that the Employee Innovation

and Proprietary Information Agreement (“EIPIA”) she signed will remain in full force

and effect and that, except for Permitted Disclosures (or as otherwise permitted by this

Agreement), the Executive will not disclose information to third parties in breach of the

EIPIA. The Executive represents that she has not and will not copy, transfer or take any

GE or Company Confidential Information to any external storage device, external

personal email or, except for Permitted Disclosures, disclose such information in any

other manner without written approval by the CEO or the HRE. GE or Company

Confidential Information includes but is not limited to documents and data containing

- 9 -

work product that the Executive or others prepared for the Company or its affiliates

during her employment. Confidential Information does not include materials of a solely

personal or social nature or documents that relate to Company-provided compensation or

benefits received by the Executive or her dependents or Executive’s restrictive covenants

or information known to the public without fault by the Executive or generally known

within the Company’s industry. If the Executive has any questions regarding what she

can/cannot copy, transfer or take, she will raise those questions to the Chief People

Officer of the Company prior to signing this Agreement. If the Executive has previously

copied, transferred or taken Confidential Information, she will tell the Company, permit

the Company to retrieve such information in a forensically sound manner, and allow and/

or assist the Company, or its designee, to permanently delete the data from her personal

computer or other storage.  The Executive may disclose GE or Company Confidential

Information if, and only to the extent, necessary in order to defend against any claim

involved in any dispute proceeding between the Company, any of its subsidiaries or

affiliates and the Executive (provided, however, that Executive will only disclose such

information in a document filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding or pursuant to

other applicable protocol to protect such information from public disclosure if filing under

seal is not an available option).

9.Disclosure of Underlying Incidents. Notwithstanding the paragraphs above, including but

not limited to the paragraphs titled, “Non-Disparagement” and “Confidential

Information”, nothing in this Agreement precludes the Executive from discussing or

disclosing information about unlawful acts in the workplace, such as harassment,

discrimination, retaliation, sexual assault or any other conduct that Executive has reason

to believe is unlawful, including the amount or fact of any settlement relating to such

acts.

10.Executive Availability and Cooperation. The Executive agrees to make herself

reasonably available to the Company or its affiliates to respond to requests for

information related to her employment with GE or the Company. The Executive will

reasonably cooperate with the Company or its affiliates in connection with existing or

future litigation or investigations brought by or against the Company or any Releasees,

whether administrative, civil or criminal in nature. The Company will reimburse the

Executive for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses she incurs as a result of such

cooperation, including, if applicable, reasonable travel and lodging expenses. Except for

making Permitted Disclosures, the Executive agrees that Executive will not (i) voluntarily

cooperate in any private, civil litigation against the Company or any of the Releasees

where such cooperation involves knowledge, information or events arising out of or

related to her employment with GE or the Company, and (ii) invite subpoenas or suggest

being subpoenaed or subpoenaing others in connection with any proceeding against the

Company or any of the Releasees related to events that occurred during her employment

with GE or the Company.

11.Return of Company Property and Submission of Expenses. The Executive agrees that she

will have, as of the Separation Date, returned to the Company all Company property or

equipment in her possession (other than de minimis items), including but not limited to,

any documents (whether in electronic or hard copy), computer, computer related

hardware, external data storage or other memory device, phone, tablet, printer, scanner,

credit card, keys, and security badge assigned to her. The Executive agrees that, as of the

Separation Date, she will have submitted the appropriate T&L expense reports for any

expenses on her corporate credit card in accordance with Company policy. Upon and

following the Separation Date, the Executive may retain a copy of her personal

correspondence, contacts list, computer calendar and any documents needed in order to file

her personal tax returns.

- 10 -

12.Non-Solicitation. The Executive agrees that, up until the Separation Date and continuing

for one year following that date she will not, without prior written approval from the

Chief People Officer of the Company: (a) whether on her own behalf or in conjunction

with any other person or third party, directly or indirectly solicit or encourage any person

who is a Lead Professional Band or higher employee of the Company or its affiliates

(hereinafter “Restricted Person”) to terminate his or her employment relationship with,

or accept any other employment outside of, the Company and its affiliates; (b) directly

hire, or recommend or cause to be hired by an entity for which the Executive works, or

with which the Executive is otherwise associated or owns more than a 1% ownership

interest, any person who is, or was within one year before or  after the Separation Date, a

Restricted Person; or (c) provide any non-public information regarding any Restricted

Person, including, but not limited to, compensation data obtained pursuant to the

Executive’s job duties and responsibilities, performance evaluations, skill sets or

qualifications, etc., to any external person in connection with employment outside the

Company and its affiliates, including, but not limited to, recruiters and prospective

employers. The above restrictions do not apply once a Restricted Person has been

formally notified of his or her impending layoff from the Company or any of its

Affiliates. If any restriction set forth in this Section 12 is found by any court of

competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because it extends for too long a  period of

time or over too great a range of activities or in too broad a geographic area, it shall be

interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time,  range or activities or

geographic area as to which it may be enforceable. If the Executive violates the non-

solicitation restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the Company promptly takes

formal action to prevent such violation once it becomes aware of such violation, the

Executive shall continue to be bound by such restrictions until a period of one (1) year in

total (including periods before and following the cessation of such violation) has expired

without any violation of such provisions.

13.Breach by Executive. The Company’s obligations to the Executive after the Effective

Date of this Agreement and the Supplemental Release are contingent on the Executive

fulfilling her obligations under this Agreement and the Supplemental Release. With

reference to the Sections above regarding Release of Claims, Executive Availability,

Non-Disparagement, Return of Company Property, Confidential Information, and Non-

Solicitation, as well as the Non-Competition provision set forth in the Supplemental

Release, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of these Sections by

the Executive inevitably could cause substantial and irreparable damage to the Company

and/or other Releasees for which money damages may not be an adequate remedy.

Accordingly, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that in such case the Company will

be entitled to seek an injunction and/or other equitable relief, without the necessity of

posting security, to prevent the breach of such obligations. With reference to the Sections

above regarding Executive Availability, Non-Disparagement, Return of Company

Property, Confidential Information, and Non-Solicitation, as well as the Non-Competition

provision set forth in the Supplemental Release, if the Company proves a breach of any

of these Sections in court or arbitration, the Executive shall indemnify and hold the

Company harmless from any loss, claim or damages, including without limitation all

reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred in enforcing its rights under the

following Sections of this Agreement as well as repay all compensation and benefits paid

as consideration under the terms of this Agreement, except to the extent that such

reimbursement is prohibited by law and excluding vested benefits to which the Executive

is otherwise entitled without regard to this Agreement. The remedy under this paragraph

and Exchange Commission or any national securities exchange or national securities

association on which shares of the Company may be traded, and/or any Company policy

adopted with respect to compensation recoupment.

In addition to the other terms of this Agreement, the  Executive will be in breach of this

Agreement if she is found to have engaged in conduct that occurred prior to the

Separation Date and would give rise to a termination for Cause (as defined above),

regardless of whether such conduct is discovered before or within two years (other than

fraud which shall have no such limitation) after the Separation Date.3

14.Severability of Provisions. If a court or arbitrator holds that any provision in this

Agreement (except the Release of Claims provision or the release in the Supplemental

Release) is legally invalid or unenforceable, and cannot be modified to be enforceable, the

affected provision will be stricken from the Agreement and the remaining terms of the

Agreement and its enforceability shall remain unaffected.

15.Compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. This Agreement shall be

construed and administered consistently with the intent that payments under the

Agreement be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (“Section

Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1 (b)(4), the “two-year, two-time” rule described in Treas. Reg. §

1.409A-1(b)(9) and/or another exemption), and to comply with the requirements of

Section 409A (to avoid taxes and penalties thereunder) to the extent that Section 409A

applies. All payments under this Agreement will be delayed to the extent necessary to

comply with the rules in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i). For purposes of Section 409A, each

installment in any series of payments shall be treated as a separate payment 4

16.Benefits Plans. The Company reserves the right to terminate, amend, suspend, replace or

modify any of its benefit plans and compensation programs at any time and for any

reason, and the Executive will be subject to any such termination, amendment,

suspension, replacement, or modification to the extent generally applicable to the

Company’s employees participating therein. If a plan or program is terminated, the

Executive will not receive any further benefits under that plan/program, other than

payment for benefits for services or coverages incurred before it was terminated. This

paragraph shall not alter any vested benefits to which the Executive may be entitled under

the terms of applicable GEV retirement plans. In addition, to the extent any of the

provisions in this Agreement conflict with the terms and conditions of any Company

plan document, award agreement or grant agreement, the provisions in this Agreement

shall be controlling.

17.Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Supplemental Release set forth the entire

agreement and understanding between the parties. The parties agree they have not relied

on any oral statements that are not included in this Agreement and the Supplemental

Release. This Agreement and the Supplemental Release supersede all prior agreements

and understandings concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and the

Supplemental Release, other than as described in this Agreement or the Supplemental

Release. Any modifications to this Agreement or the Supplemental Release must be in

writing, must reference this Agreement or the Supplemental Release, and must be signed

by the Executive and an authorized employee or agent of the Company.

interpreted and applied in accordance with the law of the Commonwealth of

Massachusetts without regard to choice of law principles.

Executive’s application for UI benefits regarding the terms of her separation from the

Company.

20.Format. The Executive and the Company agree that a facsimile (“fax”), photographic, or

electronic copy of this Agreement and/or Supplemental Release shall be as valid as the

original.

I hereby agree to the terms and conditions set forth above, including the Release of Claims. I

between me and the Company if I do not revoke my acceptance in seven (7) business days. I

understand that my receipt of the Severance Benefits described above is conditioned upon my

timely execution, return, and non-revocation of the Supplemental Release.

EXHIBIT A

SUPPLEMENTAL RELEASE AND NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT

This Supplemental Release and Non-Competition Agreement (the “Supplemental Release”) is

given by Rachel Gonzalez (the “Executive”) to GE Vernova Inc. (the “Company”) in

consideration of the covenants and promises given by the Company in the Separation Agreement

and Release signed by the Executive on or about (the “Separation Agreement”).

1.Release. In return for the Severance Benefits provided by the Separation Agreement, the

Executive, her heirs, assigns, and agents waive and release all waivable claims of any kind

(whether known or unknown, and including those under the Age Discrimination in Employment

Act (ADEA, as amended)) that the Executive may have against the Releasees (defined below),

including without limitation any claims which arise from or relate to her employment and/or the

termination of her employment with the Company or its affiliates. The released/waived claims

include, but are not limited to, any and all claims that the Releasees discriminated, harassed or

retaliated against the Executive on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex

(including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity/expression, age, disability, veteran

status or other characteristic or activity protected by law, violated any GE or Company policies,

procedures, covenants or express or implied contracts of any kind, violated any public policy,

statutory or common law (including tort), or are in any way obligated to pay her wages,

penalties, damages, expenses, costs or attorneys’ fees in relation to an alleged violation of any

waivable local, state1 or federal2 law; all common law claims including, but not limited to,

actions in defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, misrepresentation, fraud,

wrongful discharge, and breach of contract (including, without limitation, and claims arising out

of or related to the Offer Letter); all state and federal whistleblower claims to the maximum

extent permitted by law; and any claim or damage arising out of the Executive’s employment

with and/or separation from the Company (including a claim for retaliation) under any common

law theory or any federal, state or local statute or ordinance not expressly referenced herein.

- 14 -

Releasees include the Company, its past and present predecessors, successors and assigns, and

joint employers (including any professional employer organization serving as an employer of

record), all of their current and former direct and indirect parents, affiliates, subsidiaries,

divisions, and related business entities, and, in their respective official capacities as such, all of

their current and former officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, representatives and

employee benefit programs (including the trustees, administrators, fiduciaries and insurers of

such programs). This Release does not waive any rights or claims that may arise after the date

the Executive executes this Agreement, or that cannot be lawfully released. This Release does

not modify or affect (i) any vested benefits to which the Executive may be entitled under the

terms of applicable Company retirement plans or applicable law, (ii) any rights Executive has

under this Agreement, (iii) any rights to continued indemnification or coverage under directors’

and officers’ liability insurance policies procured by the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates

(subject to the terms, conditions, and limitations thereof) and (iv) Executive’s rights as an equity

stakeholder or award holder in the Company. Further, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in

this Release shall be deemed to prohibit the Executive from filing a charge with, or participating

in any investigation or proceeding before, any local, state or federal government agency,

including, without limitation, the EEOC or a state or local fair employment practices agency. The

Executive retains the right to participate in any such action but not the right to recover money

damages or other individual legal or equitable relief awarded by any such governmental agency,

including any payment, benefit, or attorneys’ fees, and hereby waives any right or claim to any

such relief; provided, however, that nothing herein shall bar or impede in any way the

Executive’s ability to seek or receive a monetary incentive award from any governmental agency

or regulatory authority in connection with information provided to the governmental agency or

regulatory authority.

The Executive represents that she understands the foregoing release, that rights and claims under

the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (“ADEA”), are among the

rights and claims against the Releasees that Executive is releasing, and that she understands that

she is not releasing any rights or claims arising after the Effective Date of this Supplemental

Release. The Executive shall have seven (7) business days from the date she signs this

Supplemental Release to revoke her consent to the waiver of her rights under the ADEA. To do

so, Executive must submit a written revocation to her Company HR Executive (“HRE”). If the

Executive revokes her consent to the waiver, all of the provisions of this Supplemental Release

shall be void and unenforceable and the Company will have no further obligations pursuant to

the Separation Agreement. If the Executive does not revoke her consent, this Supplemental

Release will take effect on the day after the end of the revocation period (the “Effective Date of

this Supplemental Release”).

In consideration for the Executive’s release of the Releasees, the Company, on behalf of itself

and its subsidiaries and affiliates, hereby waives and releases the Executive from all waivable

claims of any kind (whether known to the Company or with respect to which the Company

should reasonably be aware) that the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates may have against

the Executive which arise from or relate to her employment and/or the termination of her

employment with the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates; provided, however, that

notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this release (i) releases the Executive from her

3 While we understand that the application of this noncompete is limited given that she is an attorney, and have

accounted for that with our proviso, we believe that there are some circumstances where the noncompete could be

applicable and enforceable.

- 15 -

continuing obligations or any other continuing obligations under the terms of the Separation

Agreement or this Supplemental Release, or any other agreement between the Executive and the

Company or under the law, (ii) shall prevent the Company from bringing claims to enforce the

Separation Agreement, this Supplemental Release, or any other agreement between the

Executive and the Company, or (iii) releases the Executive from any claims arising out of or

related to any embezzlement, fraudulent or criminal conduct, willful misconduct or gross

negligence by the Executive.

2.Return of Company Property and Submission of Expenses. The Executive agrees that she

has returned to the Company all Company property or equipment in her possession, including

but not limited to, any documents (whether in electronic or hard copy), computer, computer

related hardware, external data storage or other memory device, phone, tablet, printer, scanner,

credit card, keys, and security badge assigned to her. The Executive agrees that she has

submitted the appropriate T&L expense reports for any expenses on her corporate credit card in

accordance with Company policy.

3.Non-Competition3 The Executive agrees that for one-year following the Separation Date

(the “Restriction Period”)  the Executive will not, without prior written approval from her the

Chief People Officer of the Company, whether directly or indirectly, perform activities or

services in the Restricted Area for any “ Peer Group” (as mentioned in the Company’s Proxy)

Competitive Company which: (i) are similar in nature to the activities and services the Executive

performed for the Company or its affiliate (or gained Confidential or Company Information

about as addressed above and in the EIPIA) during the last two years of the Executive’s

employment with the Company or its affiliate; and/or (ii) will include the Executive working on

products or services that are competitive with the products or services the Executive worked on

during the last two years of the Executive’s employment with the Company or its affiliate;

provided however, that both the Executive and the Company recognize and acknowledge that

nothing in this Section 3 or elsewhere is intended to or shall be interpreted to (x) restrict the

Executive’s ability, after she ceases to be an employee of the Company, to practice law, in

violation of the Massachusetts Rules of Professional Conduct 5.6 or other applicable rules of

professional conduct; or (y) expands the scope of the Executive’s duty to maintain privileged or

confidential information obtained in connection with the Executive’s role as counsel for the

Company beyond what is permitted under Massachusetts Rules of Professional Conduct 1.6 and

1.9, or other applicable rules of professional conduct. The term “Competitive Company” means

any company or other third party that provides products and services that are competitive with

the Company and/or its direct and indirect parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, divisions, and related

business entities. The term “Restricted Area” means any area within the United States where the

Company or its affiliates have material business operations as of Executive’s Separation Date

and in which the Executive has provided services, had a material presence or influence, or

received Confidential or Company Information about (as addressed above and in the EIPIA) at

any time during the last two years of the Executive’s employment with the Company or its

affiliates. The Executive understands and agrees that, given the nature of the business of the

- 16 -

Company and its affiliates and the Executive’s position with the Company or its affiliate, the

foregoing Restriction Period and Restricted Area are reasonable and appropriate to protect the

Company’s legitimate business interests and goodwill. The foregoing restrictions only apply

where legally permissible. To the extent the Executive is subject to an existing non-competition

agreement with the Company or any of its affiliates (a “Prior Agreement”), the Prior Agreement

shall be incorporated herein by reference and the Prior Agreement and this Agreement shall be

read together provided, however, that where the provisions are inconsistent, the more restrictive

covenant shall apply, except that no prior covenant shall be construed to restrict the Executive’s

practice of law or expand the Executive’s obligations under any applicable rules of professional

conduct in a manner inconsistent with the provisions in this Supplemental Release. The

Executive agrees that the payment and benefits provided for in the Agreement constitute fair and

reasonable consideration for the Executive’s compliance with this Section. If any restriction set

forth in this Section 3 is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable

because it extends for too long a period of time or over too great a range of activities or in too

broad a geographic area, it shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time,

range of activities or geographic area as to which it may be enforceable. If the Executive violates

the non-competition provisions set forth in this Section 3, the Executive shall continue to be

bound by such restrictions until a period of one (1) year has expired in total (including before and

following the cessation of such violation) without any violation of such provisions.

4.No Compensation Owed. Except for the Severance Benefits described in Section 3 of the

Agreement, the Executive agrees that she has received all wages and compensation, including

but not limited to overtime compensation (if applicable), bonuses, commissions, and accrued but

unused vacation time, due to her.

5.Acknowledgments and Voluntary Assent. The Executive acknowledges that she has been

given at least twenty-one (21) days to consider this Supplemental Release, and that the Company

is hereby advising her to consult with an attorney of her own choosing prior to signing this

Supplemental Release. The Executive understands that she may revoke her acceptance of this

Supplemental Release for a period of seven (7) business days after she signs this Supplemental

Release by sending written notice of that revocation to her HRE, and the Supplemental Release

shall not be effective or enforceable until the expiration of this seven (7) business day revocation

period. The Executive understands and agrees that by entering into this Supplemental Release,

the Executive is waiving any and all rights or claims she might have under the Age

Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act,

and that she has received consideration beyond that to which she was previously entitled. The

Executive affirms that no other promises or agreements of any kind have been made to or with

her by any person or entity whatsoever to cause the Executive to sign this Supplemental Release,

and that she fully understands the meaning and intent of this Supplemental Release. The

Executive further states and represents that she has carefully read this Supplemental Release,

understands the contents herein, freely and voluntarily assents to all of the terms and conditions

hereof, and sign the Executive’s name of her own free act.

6.Equitable Remedies. The Executive acknowledges that the restrictions referenced and

contained in Section 3 of this Supplemental Release are necessary for the protection of the

- 17 -

business and goodwill of the Company and are considered by the Executive to be reasonable for

such purpose. The Executive agrees that any breach or threatened breach of such provisions may

cause the Company substantial and irrevocable damage, which may be difficult to measure.

Therefore, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Executive agrees that the

Company, in addition to such other remedies that may be available, shall have the right to seek

an injunction from a court restraining such a breach or threatened breach without posting a bond,

and the right to specific performance of such provisions, and the Executive hereby waives the

adequacy of a remedy at law as a defense to such relief.

7.Severability. If a court or arbitrator holds that any provision in this Supplemental Release

(except the Release in Section 1) is legally invalid or unenforceable, and cannot be modified to

be enforceable, the affected provision will be stricken from the Agreement and the remaining

terms of the Agreement and its enforceability shall remain unaffected.

I hereby provide this Supplemental Release as of the current date and acknowledge that my

entering into this Supplemental Release is in further consideration of the Severance Benefits, to

which I acknowledge I would not be entitled if I did not enter into this Supplemental Release. I

have been given at least twenty-one (21) days to consider this Supplemental Release, and I have

chosen to execute this on the date below. I intend that this Supplemental Release will become a

binding agreement between me and the Company if I do not revoke my acceptance in seven (7)

business days.
