DiPaolo Title: Vice President Attest: _________________________ Name: Title: Assistant Secretary TRUSTEE'S CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICATION This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture. Dated: October 5, 2001 CITIBANK, N.A., as Trustee By: _____________________________ Name: Title: Authorized Signatory (Reverse of Security) This Security is one of a duly authorized series of Securities of the Company designated as RAPIDS(sm), Return Accelerated PortfolIo Debt Securities Notes Due November 5, 2002 (herein called the "Securities"). The Company may, without the consent of the holders of the Securities, create and issue additional notes ranking equally with the Securities and otherwise similar in all respects so that such further notes shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Securities; provided that no additional notes can be issued if an Event of Default has occurred with respect to the Securities. This series of Securities is one of an indefinite number of series of debt securities of the Company, issued and to be issued under an indenture, dated as of September 1, 1987, as amended (herein called the "Indenture"), duly executed and delivered by the Company and Citibank N.A., as trustee (herein called the "Trustee", which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities. The Maturity Payment Amount shall be determined by the Calculation Agent pursuant to the Calculation Agency Agreement. All percentages resulting from any calculation with respect to the Securities will be rounded at the Calculation Agent's discretion. The Trustee shall fully rely on the determination by the Calculation Agent of the Maturity Payment Amount and shall have no duty to make any such determination. This Security is not subject to any sinking fund and is not redeemable prior to its Stated Maturity Date. If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall occur and be continuing, the amounts payable on all of the Securities may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The amount payable to the Holder hereof upon any acceleration permitted under the Indenture will be equal to the Maturity Payment Amount calculated as though the date of acceleration was the Stated Maturity Date and the date three Business Days prior thereto was the Calculation Date. The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than 66 2/3% in aggregate principal amount of each series of Securities at the time Outstanding to be affected (each series voting as a class), evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the Securities of all such series; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, among other things, (i) change the fixed maturity of any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon or reduce any premium payable on redemption, or make the principal thereof, or premium, if any, or interest therein payable in any coin or currency other than that hereinabove provided, without the consent of the holder of each Security so affected, or (ii) change the place of payment on any Security, or impair the right 2 to institute suit for payment on any Security, or reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities, the holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the holders of each Security so affected. It is also provided in the Indenture that, prior to any declaration accelerating the maturity of any series of Securities, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series Outstanding may on behalf of the holders of all the Securities of such series waive any past default or Event of Default under the Indenture with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of interest, if any, or the principal of, or premium, if any, on any of the Securities of such series, or in the payment of any sinking fund installment or analogous obligation with respect to Securities of such series. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future holders and owners of this Security and any Securities which may be issued in exchange or substitution hereof, irrespective of whether or not any notation thereof is made upon this Security or such other Securities. No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal amount with respect to this Security. The Securities are issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000. The Company, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company or of the Trustee may deem and treat the registered holder (the "Holder") hereof as the absolute owner of this Security (whether or not this Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon), for the purpose of receiving payment hereof, or on account hereof, and for all other purposes and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or of the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments made to or upon the order of such registered holder shall, to the extent of the sum or sums paid, effectually satisfy and discharge liability for moneys payable on this Security. No recourse for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on this Security, or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto or in any Security, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office or agency in a Place of Payment for this Security, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of 3 this series or of like tenor and of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. The Company intends to treat and, by purchasing this Security, the Holder hereof agrees to treat, for all tax purposes, this Security as a financial contract for cash settlement, rather than as a debt instrument.

LEHMAN BROTHERS HOLDINGS INC. By: ___________________________ Name: Barrett S. DiPaolo Title: Vice President LEHMAN BROTHERS INC., as Calculation Agent By: __________________________ Name: Barrett S. DiPaolo Title: Vice President ANNEX A 1. The Basket. The Basket shall be composed of the Underlying Equity Securities (the "Basket"). 2. Determination of the Maturity Payment Amount. The Calculation Agent shall determine the amount payable on the Stated Maturity Date for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities (the "Maturity Payment Amount"). The Maturity Payment Amount shall equal the sum of the Adjusted Values of each Underlying Equity Security. In the event that the Calculation Agent makes an Ending Price Adjustment due to the occurrence of a Market Disruption Event, the payment by the Company of the Maturity Payment Amount will be postponed until the date three Business Days after the date of determination of any such Ending Price Adjustment. 3. Multipliers for the Common Stocks in the Basket. The multiplier for each Underlying Equity Security in the Basket shall be the number of shares or other units (including ADRs) (or fraction of a share or other unit expressed as a decimal) of such Underlying Equity Security included in the Basket (the "Multiplier"). The Multiplier shall be adjusted from time to time during the term of the Securities to give effect to the extraordinary corporate transactions described below in Section 4. The price used to determine the Starting Multiplier for each Underlying Equity Security shall be determined based on the Average Execution Price for each Underlying Equity Security. The Starting Multiplier for each Underlying Equity Security in the Basket will remain constant unless adjusted. No adjustment to a Multiplier will be required unless the adjustment would require a change of at least 0.1% in the Multiplier then in effect. Each Multiplier, and any adjustments to a Multiplier, will be rounded at the Calculation Agent's discretion. 4. Adjustments to the Common Stocks in the Basket. Adjustments to the Underlying Equity Securities included in the Basket will be made (i) by adjusting the Multiplier then in effect for an Underlying Equity Security in the Basket, (ii) by adding new Underlying Equity Securities, other securities or cash to the Basket and/or (iii) by removing Underlying Equity Securities in the Basket, each as described below. For purposes of these adjustments, except as noted below, ADRs are treated like Underlying Equity Securities if a comparable adjustment to the foreign shares underlying the ADRs is made pursuant to the terms of the depositary arrangement for the ADRs or if holders of ADRs are entitled to receive property in respect of the underlying foreign shares. o If an Underlying Equity Security is subject to a stock split or reverse stock split, then once the split has become effective, the Multiplier then in effect relating to that Underlying Equity Security will be adjusted. The Multiplier will be adjusted to equal the product of the number of shares outstanding after the split with respect to each share immediately prior to effectiveness of the split and the prior Multiplier. o If an Underlying Equity Security is subject to an extraordinary stock dividend or extraordinary stock distribution in common stock that is given equally to all holders of shares, then once the Underlying Equity Security is trading ex-dividend, the Multiplier 2 will be increased by the product of the number of shares issued with respect to one share and the prior Multiplier. o If the issuer of an Underlying Equity Security, or, if an Underlying Equity Security is an ADR, the foreign issuer of the underlying foreign share, is being liquidated or dissolved or is subject to a proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, the Underlying Equity Security will continue to be included in the Basket so long as the primary exchange, trading system or market is reporting a market price for the Underlying Equity Security. If a market price, including a price on a bulletin board service, is no longer available for an Underlying Equity Security included in the Basket, then the value of that Underlying Equity Security will equal zero for so long as no market price is available, and no attempt will be made to find a replacement stock or increase the Basket to compensate for the deletion of that Underlying Equity Security. o If the issuer of an Underlying Equity Security, or, if an Underlying Equity Security is an ADR, the foreign issuer of the underlying foreign share, has been subject to a merger or consolidation and is not the surviving entity and holders of the issuer's common stock are entitled to receive cash, securities, other property or a combination of those in exchange for their common stock, then the following will be included in the Basket: o To the extent cash is received, the Basket will include the amount of the cash consideration at the time holders are entitled to receive the cash consideration, plus accrued interest. Interest will accrue beginning on the first London Business Day after the day on which holders receive the cash consideration until the Stated Maturity Date. Interest will accrue at a rate equal to LIBOR with a term corresponding to the interest accrual period stated in the preceding sentence. o To the extent that equity securities that are traded or listed on an exchange, trading system or market are received, once the exchange for the new securities has become effective, the former Underlying Equity Security will be removed from the Basket and the new securities will be added to the Basket. The Multiplier for the new securities will equal the product of the last value of the Multiplier of the original Underlying Equity Security and the number of securities of the new security exchanged with respect to one share of the original Underlying Equity Security. o To the extent that equity securities that are not traded or listed on an exchange, trading system or market or non-equity securities or other property (other than cash) is received, the calculation agent will determine the fair market value of the securities or other property received and the Basket will include an amount of cash equal to the product of the Multiplier and the fair market value. The Basket will also include accrued interest on that amount. Interest will accrue beginning on the first London Business Day after the day that an affiliate of the Company sells the securities or other property used to hedge the Company's obligations under the notes until the Stated Maturity Date. Interest will accrue at a rate equal to LIBOR with a term corresponding to the interest accrual period stated in the preceding sentence. 3 o If all of the shares of the class of common stock of which an Underlying Equity Security is a part are converted into or exchanged for the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of common stock other than that class of common stock of which the Underlying Equity Security is a part, whether by capital reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification, then, once the conversion has become effective, the former Underlying Equity Security will be removed from the Basket and the new common stock will be added to the Basket as an Underlying Equity Security. The Multiplier for each new Underlying Equity Security added to the Basket will equal the product of the last value of the Multiplier of the original Underlying Equity Security and the number of shares of the new Underlying Equity Security issued with respect to one share of the original Underlying Equity Security. o If the issuer of an Underlying Equity Security in the Basket, or if an Underlying Equity Security is an ADR, the issuer of the underlying foreign share, issues to all of its shareholders common stock or another equity security that is traded or listed on an exchange, trading system or market of an issuer other than itself, then the new common stock or other equity security will be added to the Basket as an Underlying Equity Security. The Multiplier for the new Underlying Equity Security will equal the product of the last value of the Multiplier with respect to the original Underlying Equity Security and the number of shares of the new Underlying Equity Security issued with respect to one share of the original Underlying Equity Security. o If an ADR is no longer listed or admitted to trading on a United States securities exchange registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or is no longer a security quoted on the Nasdaq, then the foreign share underlying the ADR will be deemed to be a new common stock included in the Basket. The initial Multiplier for that new Underlying Equity Security will equal the last value of the Multiplier for the ADR multiplied by the number of underlying foreign shares represented by a single ADR. o If an Underlying Equity Security is subject to an extraordinary dividend or an extraordinary distribution (including upon liquidation or dissolution) of cash, equity securities that are not traded or listed on an exchange, trading system or market, non-equity securities or other property of any kind which is received equally by all holders of the class of common stock of which the Underlying Equity Security is a part, then the Basket will include the following: o To the extent cash is entitled to be received, the Basket will include on each day after the time that the Underlying Equity Security trades ex-dividend until the date the cash consideration is entitled to be received, the present value of the cash to be received, discounted at a rate equal to LIBOR, with a term beginning that day and ending on the date that the cash is entitled to be received. When the cash consideration is received, the Basket will include the amount of the cash consideration, plus accrued interest. Interest will accrue beginning the first London Business Day after the day that holders receive the cash consideration until the Stated Maturity Date. Interest will accrue at a rate equal to LIBOR with a term corresponding to the interest accrual period stated in the preceding sentence. o To the extent that equity securities that are not traded or listed on an exchange, trading system or market or non-equity securities or other property (other than cash) are received, the Calculation Agent will determine the fair market value of the securities or other property received and the Basket will include an amount of cash equal to the product of the Multiplier and the fair market value. The Basket will also include accrued interest on that amount. Interest will accrue beginning on the first London Business Day after the day that an affiliate of the Company sells the securities or other property used to hedge the Company's obligations under the notes until the Stated Maturity Date. Interest will accrue at a rate equal to LIBOR with a term corresponding to the interest accrual period stated in the preceding sentence. 4 o If similar corporate events occur with respect to the issuer of an equity security other than an Underlying Equity Security that is included in the Basket, adjustments similar to the above will be made for that equity security. In addition, if any other corporate events occur with respect to the issuer of an Underlying Equity Security included in the Basket, adjustments will be made to reflect the economic substance of those events. The payment of an ordinary cash dividend from current income or retained earnings will not result in an adjustment to the Multiplier. 5. Definitions.

Reuters Spot Closing Rate. (iv) If a Market Disruption Event has occurred for an Underlying Equity Security on a day on which the Ending Price for such Underlying Equity Security is to be calculated, the Ending Price for such Underlying Equity Security shall initially be determined using the Ending Price for such Underlying Equity Security on the next preceding Trading Day on which a Market Disruption Event did not occur.
