Item 5: Other Events.

     On June 18, 2004, InVision Technologies, Inc. (“InVision”) and GE Infrastructure, a unit of General Electric Company (“GE”), jointly issued a press release announcing that InVision had entered into a memorandum of understanding with counsel to the plaintiffs in two lawsuits relating to the proposed acquisition of InVision by GE. The two actions have been consolidated under one lead case, Waltman, et al. v. InVision Technologies, Inc., et al., Lead Case No. RG04146722 in the California Superior Court for the County of Alameda. In connection with the entry into the memorandum of understanding, InVision is making the disclosure set forth in Attachment A to the press release filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 with respect to its pending acquisition by GE, which disclosures are incorporated herein by this reference.

     InVision and GE anticipate that the proposed acquisition of InVision by GE will be completed on or about July 15, 2004. However, the completion of the merger remains subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory and stockholder approvals and the actual closing date may vary from the currently anticipated closing date.
