Let k be a field of characteristic not equal to 2,3, \mathbbO an octonion over k and J the exceptional Jordan algebra defined by \mathbbO. We consider the prehomogeneous vector space (G,V) where G=GE6× GL(2) and V=J⊕ J. We prove that generic rational orbits of this prehomogeneous vector space are in bijective correspondence with k-isomorphism classes of pairs (M,\mathfrakn) where M's are isotopes of J and \mathfrakn's are cubic étale subalgebras of M. Also we prove that if \mathbbO is split, then generic rational orbits are in bijective correspondence with isomorphism classes of separable extensions of k of degrees up to 3.
