         NOW THEREFORE, the Company and the Calculation Agent agree as follows:

         1. Appointment of Agent. The Company hereby appoints Lehman Brothers

         2. Calculations and Information Provided. In response to a request made
by the Trustee for a determination of the Maturity Payment Amount due on the
Stated Maturity Date of the Securities, the Calculation Agent shall determine
such Maturity Payment Amount and notify the Trustee of its determination. The
Calculation Agent shall also determine (a) the Successor Index if publication of
a Component Index is discontinued, (b) the Multiplier and Weight of each
remaining Component Index if no Successor Index is available or if the publisher
of such Component Index or Successor Index, as the case may be, fails to
calculate and publish a Closing Index Level on any date, (c) adjustments to a
Component Index, the Successor Index or the Closing Index Level thereof if the

    Index and has been licensed for use by Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.
    The Securities, linked to the performance of the Component Indices, are
    not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by the sponsors of the
    Component Indices and the sponsors of the Component Indices make no
    representation regarding the advisability of investing in the
    Securities.

                                                                               2

it does not, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent, fairly represent the level
of such Component Index, or Successor Index, as the case may be, had such
changes or modifications not been made, (d) adjustments to the Threshold Level,
if required in order to reflect adjustments made in a Component Index or
Successor Index and (e) whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred. The
Calculation Agent shall notify the Trustee of all such adjustments or any such
Successor Index, or if a Market Disruption Event has occurred. Annex A hereto
sets forth the procedures the Calculation Agent will use to determine the
information described in this Section 2.

         3. Calculations. Any calculation or determination by the Calculation
Agent pursuant hereto shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final and
binding. Any calculation made by the Calculation Agent hereunder shall, at the
Trustee's request, be made available at the Corporate Trust Office.

         4. Fees and Expenses. The Calculation Agent shall be entitled to
reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it as agreed to between the
Calculation Agent and the Company.

         5. Terms and Conditions. The Calculation Agent accepts its obligations
herein set out upon the terms and conditions hereof, including the following, to
all of which the Company agrees:

                  (a) in acting under this Agreement, the Calculation Agent is
         acting solely as an independent expert of the Company and does not
         assume any obligation toward, or any relationship of agency or trust
         for or with, any of the holders of the Securities;

                  (b) unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any order,
         certificate, notice, request, direction or other communication from the
         Company or the Trustee made or given under any provision of this
         Agreement shall be sufficient if signed by any person whom the
         Calculation Agent reasonably believes to be a duly authorized officer
         or attorney-in-fact of the Company or the Trustee, as the case may be;

                  (c) the Calculation Agent shall be obliged to perform only
         such duties as are set out specifically herein and any duties
         necessarily incidental thereto;

                  (d) the Calculation Agent, whether acting for itself or in any
         other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities with the
         same rights as it would have had if it were not acting hereunder as
         Calculation Agent; and

                  (e) the Calculation Agent shall incur no liability hereunder
         except for loss sustained by reason of its gross negligence or willful
         misconduct.

         6. Resignation; Removal; Successor. (a) The Calculation Agent may at
any time resign by giving written notice to the Company of such intention on its
part, specifying the date on which its desired resignation shall become
effective, subject to the appointment of a successor Calculation Agent and
acceptance of such appointment by such successor Calculation Agent, as
hereinafter provided. The Calculation Agent hereunder may be removed at any time

                                                                               3


by the filing with it of an instrument in writing signed by or on behalf of the
Company and specifying such removal and the date when it shall become effective.
Such resignation or removal shall take effect upon the appointment by the
Company, as hereinafter provided, of a successor Calculation Agent and the
acceptance of such appointment by such successor Calculation Agent. In the event
a successor Calculation Agent has not been appointed and has not accepted its
duties within 90 days of the Calculation Agent's notice of resignation, the
Calculation Agent may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the
designation of a successor Calculation Agent.

         (b) In case at any time the Calculation Agent shall resign, or shall be
removed, or shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or
insolvent, or make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or consent to
the appointment of a receiver or custodian of all or any substantial part of its
property, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay or meet its debts as
they mature, or if a receiver or custodian of it or all or any substantial part
of its property shall be appointed, or if any public officer shall have taken
charge or control of the Calculation Agent or of its property or affairs, for
the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, a successor
Calculation Agent shall be appointed by the Company by an instrument in writing,
filed with the successor Calculation Agent. Upon the appointment as aforesaid of
a successor Calculation Agent and acceptance by the latter of such appointment,
the Calculation Agent so superseded shall cease to be Calculation Agent
hereunder.

         (c) Any successor Calculation Agent appointed hereunder shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor, to the Company and to the Trustee an
instrument accepting such appointment hereunder and agreeing to be bound by the
terms hereof, and thereupon such successor Calculation Agent, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the authority,
rights, powers, trusts, immunities, duties and obligations of such predecessor
with like effect as if originally named as Calculation Agent hereunder, and such
predecessor, upon payment of its charges and disbursements then unpaid, shall
thereupon become obligated to transfer, deliver and pay over, and such successor
Calculation Agent shall be entitled to receive, all moneys, securities and other
property on deposit with or held by such predecessor, as Calculation Agent
hereunder.

         (d) Any corporation into which the Calculation Agent hereunder may be
merged or converted or any corporation with which the Calculation Agent may be
consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Calculation Agent shall be a party, or any
corporation to which the Calculation Agent shall sell or otherwise transfer all
or substantially all of the assets and business of the Calculation Agent shall
be the successor Calculation Agent under this Agreement without the execution or
filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

         7. Certain Definitions. Terms not otherwise defined herein or in Annex
A hereto are used herein as defined in the Indenture or the Securities.

         8. Indemnification. The Company will indemnify the Calculation Agent

its appointment or the exercise of its powers and duties hereunder except such
as may result from the gross

                                     ANNEX A

1.   The Basket and the Component Indices.

     The basket (the "Basket") shall initially be composed of the following
indices: the Dow Jones EURO STOXX 50(SM) Index, as calculated, published and
disseminated by STOXX Limited, the FTSE 100 Index(TM), as calculated, published
and disseminated by FTSE International Limited, the Nikkei 225(SM) Index, as
calculated, published and disseminated by Nihon Keizai Shimbun, Inc., and the
S&P(R)/ASX 200 Index, as calculated, published and disseminated by the Standard
& Poor's Australian Index Committee (each, a "Component Index" and,
collectively, the "Component Indices").

2.   Determination of the Maturity Payment Amount.

     The Calculation Agent shall, at the request of the Trustee, 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 be the following:

     o    If the Final Basket Return is greater than or equal to zero, $1,000 +
          ($1,000 x the Upside Participation Rate x the Final Basket Return).

     o    If the Final Basket Return is less than zero and the Final Basket
          Level is equal to or greater than the Threshold Level, $1,000.

     o    If the Final Basket Return is less than zero and the Final Basket
          Level is less than the Threshold Level:

                           $1,000 x Final Index Level
                                    -----------------
                                     Threshold Level

3.   Discontinuance of the Index.

     (a) If a publisher of a Component Index discontinues publication of such
Component Index and such publisher or another entity publishes a successor or
substitute index (a "Successor Index") that the Calculation Agent determines, in
its sole discretion exercised in good faith, to be comparable to the
discontinued Component Index, then the Calculation Agent shall determine each
subsequent Closing Basket Value to be used in computing the Maturity Payment
Amount by reference to the Closing Index Level of such Successor Index on the
applicable date.

     (b) Upon any selection by the Calculation Agent of a Successor Index, the
Company shall promptly give notice to the holders of the Securities.

     (c) If a publisher of a Component Index discontinues publication of such
Component Index and the Calculation Agent determines that no Successor Index is
available at such time, or if such publisher (or the publisher of any Successor
Index to such Component Index) fails to calculate and publish a Closing Index
Level for such Component Index (or a Successor Index) on

                                                                               2

any date when it would ordinarily do so in accordance with its customary
practice, the Component Index (or Successor Index) shall be removed from the
Basket as of the close of business on the last day on which its Closing Index
Level was published by its publisher and the Weight of each remaining Component
Index (or Successor Index) shall simultaneously be increased (by adjusting the
respective Multipliers) by an amount determined by the Calculation Agent such as
to result in both (a) the relative Weights of remaining Component Indices on
such day and (b) the Closing Basket Level on such day remaining unchanged. In
addition, the Calculation Agent shall make such other adjustments to the terms
of the Securities as may be required to account for such discontinued Component
Index.

4.   Alteration of Method of Calculation.

     If at any time the method of calculating a Component Index, any Successor
Index, or the Closing Index Level thereof on any particular day, is changed in a
material respect, or if a Component Index or any Successor Index is in any other
way modified so that such index does not, in the opinion of the Calculation
Agent, fairly represent the level of such Component Index or such Successor
Index had such changes or modifications not been made, then, from and after such
time, the Calculation Agent shall, at the Close of Trading of the Relevant
Exchanges on which the securities comprising such Component Index or such
Successor Index traded on any date the Closing Index Level thereof is to be
determined, make such calculations and adjustments as, in the good faith
judgment of the Calculation Agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a
level of a stock index comparable to such Component Index or such Successor
Index, as the case may be, as if such changes or modifications had not been
made. The Calculation Agent shall calculate the Closing Index Level of a
Component Index on any particular day and the Maturity Payment Amount with
reference to such Component Index or such Successor Index, as adjusted.

     Accordingly, if the method of calculating a Component Index or a Successor
Index is modified so that the level of such index is a fraction of what it would
have been if it had not been modified, then the Calculation Agent shall adjust
such index in order to arrive at a level of such Component Index or such
Successor Index as if it had not been modified.
