     EXAMPLES OF AMOUNT PAYABLE AT MATURITY OR UPON REDEMPTION OR REPURCHASE

Here are two examples of hypothetical alternative redemption amount
calculations.

EXAMPLE 1. ASSUMING THE SETTLEMENT VALUE IS 300:

Alternative redemption amount per $1,000 note =

                                    300.0000
                         $1,000  x  --------  =  $749.43
                                    400.3014

As a result, on the maturity date or upon redemption, you would receive $1,000
per $1,000 note because $1,000 is greater than $749.43. If you require Lehman
Brothers Holdings to repurchase your notes, you would only receive $749.43 per
$1,000 note.

EXAMPLE 2. ASSUMING THE SETTLEMENT VALUE IS 500:

Alternative redemption amount per $1,000 note =

                                    500.0000
                         $1,000  x  --------  =  $1,249.05
                                    400.3014

As a result, on the maturity date or upon redemption, you would receive
$1,249.05 per $1,000 note because $1,250.00 is greater than $1,000. If you
require Lehman Brothers Holdings to repurchase your notes, you would also
receive 1,249.05 per $1,000 note.

To the extent the settlement value differs from the values assumed above, the
results indicated above would be different.

                                    THE INDEX

RUSSELL MIDCAP(R) GROWTH INDEX

Lehman Brothers Holdings obtained all information contained in this pricing
supplement regarding the Russell Midcap(R) Growth Index, including, without
limitation, its make-up, method of calculation and changes in its components,
from publicly available information. That information reflects the policies of,
and is subject to change by, Frank Russell Company. Frank Russell Company has no
obligation to continue to publish, and may discontinue publication of, the
Russell Midcap(R) Growth Index. The consequences of Frank Russell Company
discontinuing publication of the Russell Midcap(R) Growth Index are described in
the section entitled "Description of the Notes--Discontinuance of one or more
relevant indices; Alteration of method of calculation" on page SS-19 of the
synthetic convertible prospectus supplement. Lehman Brothers Holdings makes no
representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any information
relating to the Russell Midcap(R) Growth Index.

The Russell Midcap(R) Growth Index measures the performance of those Russell
Midcap companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth
values. Russell Midcap companies are members of the Russell Midcap(R) Index,
which measures the performance of the 800 smallest companies in the Russell
1000(R) Index. The stocks are also members of the Russell 1000 Growth(R) Index,
which measures the performance of those Russell 1000 companies with higher
price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. Russell produces a
family of 23 U.S. equity indexes. The indexes are market cap-weighted and
include only common stocks incorporated in the United States and its
territories. All U.S. indexes are subsets of the Russell 3000(R) Index, which
represents approximately 98% of the investable U.S. equity market.

CONSTRUCTION AND METHODOLOGY

INDEX MEMBERSHIP CRITERIA

Index membership criteria as described below for the Russell 3000(R) Index
applies to the Russell-Midcap(R) Growth Index as its subset.

The Russell 3000(R) Index contains the largest 3,000 companies incorporated in
the United States and its territories. The companies are ranked by decreasing
total market capitalization. All companies listed on any U.S. exchange are
considered for inclusion in the Index with the following exceptions:

Minimum Trading Price

Stocks must trade at or above $1.00 on May 31 to be eligible for inclusion in
the Russell Indexes. However, if a stock falls below $1.00 intra-year, it will
not be removed from the Russell indexes until the next reconstitution if it is
still trading below $1.00.

Class of Stock

Determining a company's inclusion in the Index is based on total market
capitalization. Total market cap is determined by combining all common stock
share classes (outstanding). If multiple share classes have been combined, the
price of the primary vehicle (usually the most liquid) is used in Russell's
calculations. In cases where the common stock share classes act independently of
each other (e.g. tracking stocks), each class is considered for inclusion
separately. AT&T, General Motors, Georgia Pacific, and Sprint are examples of
companies with independent share classes.

Primary Trading Vehicle

Primary trading vehicles are determined by an objective equal-weighted matrix of
relative trading volume, price and float-adjusted shares outstanding as of May
31. The common share class with the highest trading volume, price and
float-adjusted shares outstanding (or highest combination of the three) will be
considered the primary trading vehicle and its associated price and trading
symbol will be included as a member in the Russell indexes.

Beginning with Reconstitution 2003, current members of the Russell 3000(R) Index
with multiple common share classes will be evaluated according to a secondary
matrix if the original matrix signals a membership change at reconstitution.
Used only to evaluate current Russell 3000 members at reconstitution time, this
secondary matrix has been established to gauge materiality of the differences
between variables. While maintaining objective criteria, the purpose of the
secondary matrix is to prevent small differences from influencing membership and
causing share turnover. As such, variables will be excluded from the matrix if
the

                                      PS-3


difference between the current and alternate class is immaterial. Materiality
will be evaluated as follows:

     o    Price (if difference is greater than 10%*)

     o    Float-Adjusted Shares (if difference is greater than 20%*)

     o    100-Day Average Trading Volume (if difference is greater than 20%*)

* Percentage differences will be based on current member class variables
relative to other class. (i.e. if current class price is 52.56 and other class
is 54.66, the percentage will be calculated as follows: (current member
price-other class price)/current member price= (52.56-54.66)/52.56= 4%.

In the event that the secondary primary trading vehicle matrix results in a tie,
preference will be given to the class having a combination of BOTH materially
higher trading volume and float-adjusted shares outstanding. Otherwise, when the
matrix results in a "tie", preference is given to the existing member.

Primary trading vehicles will be determined at reconstitution and maintained
until the following reconstitution, unless significant corporate actions occur.
In the event of a significant corporate action, the primary vehicle will be
re-evaluated and could change based on the most current available information.
In the event that the primary trading vehicle matrix has missing or identical
data for each class, the primary trading vehicle will be determined based on
available market information.

Non-U.S. Incorporated Companies

Stocks traded on the different exchanges in the United States, but incorporated
in other countries (e.g., Carnival Corp., Schlumberger Ltd., and Tyco Int'l.)
are excluded. Russell's purpose is to create an index of U.S. stocks. The
behavior of foreign stocks is heavily influenced by factors outside the United
States; hence, including such stocks would cloud the picture of the performance
of the U.S. stock market.

Other Excluded Stocks

Because Russell is trying to capture performance of each company's primary
equity vehicle, the following share types are not eligible for inclusion:

     o    Preferred and convertible preferred stock, redeemable shares,
          participating preferred stock, warrants and rights, trust receipts,
          royalty trusts, limited liability companies, bulletin board, pink
          sheet stocks, closed-end investment companies, limited partnerships,
          and foreign stocks.

     o    As a special exception, Berkshire Hathaway is also excluded

Deadline for Inclusion

Stocks must be trading on May 31 and Russell must have access to documentation
verifying the company's eligibility for inclusion. This information includes
corporate description, incorporation, shares outstanding, and other information
needed to determine eligibility. As a result, companies that start trading in
June, or companies that started to trade prior to May 31, but failed to provide
the required information, are excluded until the next reconstitution. Initial
Public Offerings will be considered for inclusion quarterly (See Rules for
Additions).

CAPITALIZATION ADJUSTMENTS

The purpose of this adjustment is to exclude from market calculations the
capitalization that is not available for purchase and is not part of the
investing opportunity set. Stocks are weighted by their available market
capitalization, which is calculated by multiplying the primary price by the
available shares.

Available Shares

Available shares are assumed to be shares available for trading. Exclusion of
capitalization held by other listed companies and large holdings of private
investors (10% or more) is based on information recorded in SEC corporate
filings. Other sources are used in cases of missing or questionable data.

Unavailable Shares

     o    ESOP or LESOP shares -- Corporations that have Employee Stock
          Ownership Plans that comprise 10% or more of the shares outstanding
          are adjusted.

     o    Corporate cross-owned shares -- When shares of a company in the index
          are held by another company also in the index, this is considered
          corporate cross-ownership. Any


                                      PS-4


          percentage held in this class will be adjusted.

     o    Large private and corporate shares -- Large private and corporate
          holdings are defined as those shares held by an individual, a group of
          individuals acting together, or a corporation not in the index that
          own 10% or more of the shares outstanding. However, not to be included
          in this class are institutional holdings, which are: investment
          companies not in the index, partnerships, insurance companies not in
          the index, mutual funds, banks not in the index, or venture capitals.

     o    Unlisted share classes -- Classes of common stock that are not traded
          on a U.S. Exchange.

     o    IPO Lock-Ups -- Shares locked up during an Initial Public Offering are
          not available to the public and will be excluded from the market value
          at the time the IPO enters the index.

PRICING OF SECURITIES: PRIMARY EXCHANGE

Effective on January 1, 2002, primary exchange closing prices are used in the
daily index calculations. Primary exchange closing prices are the closing price
on a securities' primary exchange. FT Interactive data is used as the primary
source for U.S. security prices, income, and total shares outstanding. Prior to
January 1, 2002, Composite closing prices, which are the last trade price on any
U.S. exchange, were used in the daily index calculations.

HALTED TRADING

In the case of trading halts, stocks are held in the Russell U.S. Indexes at the
last traded price until trading resumes or the stock is delisted.

DIVIDENDS

Gross dividends are included in the daily total return calculation of the
Indexes based on their ex-dates. The ex-date is used rather than the pay-date
because the marketplace price adjustment for the dividend occurs on the ex-date.
Monthly, quarterly, and annual total returns are calculated by compounding the
reinvestment of dividends daily.

CORPORATE ACTIONS AFFECTING THE INDEXES

"No replacement" Rule

Securities that leave the index, between reconstitution dates, for any reason
(e.g., mergers, acquisitions, or other similar corporate activity) are not
replaced. Thus, the number of securities in the indexes over the year will
fluctuate according to corporate activity.

Rule for Corporate Action-Driven Changes

Beginning April 1, 2003 changes resulting from corporate actions will generally
be applied at the open of the ex-date using the previous day's closing prices.

     o    RECLASSIFICATION OF SHARES, MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS, SPIN-OFFS AND
          REORGANIZATIONS: Adjustments will be made at the open of the ex-date
          using previous day closing prices

     o    RE-INCORPORATIONS AND EXCHANGE DELISTING: Deleted entities will be
          removed at the open on the day following re-incorporation or delisting
          using previous day closing prices (including OTC prices for delisted
          stocks)

When acquisitions or mergers take place within the Russell 3000E Index, the
stock's capitalization moves to the acquiring stock, hence, mergers have no
effect on the index total capitalization. Shares are updated for the acquiring
stock at the time the transaction is final. Prior to April 1, 2000, if the
acquiring stock was a member of a different index (i.e., Russell 1000 or Russell
2000), the shares for the acquiring stock were not adjusted until month end.

Deleted stocks

Effective on January 1, 2002, when deleting stocks from the Russell indexes as a
result of exchange delisting or reconstitution, the price used will be the
market price on the day of deletion, including potentially the OTC bulletin
board price. Previously, prices used to reflect de-listed stocks were the last
traded price on the primary exchange.

Rule for Additions

The only additions between reconstitution dates are as a result of spin-offs and
initial public offerings. Spin-off companies are added to the parent company's
index and capitalization tier of membership, if the spin-off is large enough. To
be eligible, the spun-off company's total market capitalization must be greater
than the market-adjusted


                                      PS-5


total market capitalization of the smallest security in the Russell 3000E(TM)
Index at the latest reconstitution. As of March 2003, the spin-off company's
style index is determined by the style index membership of the parent entity.

QUARTERLY IPO ADDITIONS

Beginning September 2004, eligible IPOs are added to Russell U.S. indexes at the
end of each calendar quarter according to the schedule below. IPOs will be added
to Russell's U.S. Index family based on total market capitalization ranking
within the market-adjusted capitalization breaks established during the most
recent reconstitution. Market adjustments will be made using the returns of the
broad market Russell 3000(R). Eligible IPOs will be added to the Russell style
indexes using their industry's average style probability established at the
latest reconstitution.

In order to be added during a quarter outside of reconstitution, Initial Public
Offerings must meet all Russell U.S. Index eligibility requirements.
Additionally, IPOs must meet the following criteria on the final trading day of
the month prior to quarter-end (1) price/trade and (2) rank larger in total
market capitalization than the market-adjusted smallest company in the Russell
3000E. Index as of the latest June reconstitution and (3) meet criteria listed
in (1) and (2) during an initial offering period.

UPDATES TO SHARE CAPITAL AFFECTING THE INDEXES

Each month, Russell indexes are updated for changes to shares outstanding as
companies report changes in share capital to the SEC. Effective April 30, 2002
only cumulative changes to shares outstanding greater than 5% will be reflected
in the Russell U.S. indexes. This does not affect treatment of major corporate
events, which are effective on the ex-date.

INDEX RECONSTITUTION/REBALANCING

The Russell U.S. Indexes are reconstituted annually to reflect changes in the
marketplace. The list of companies is ranked based on May 31 total market
capitalization, with the actual reconstitution effective the last Friday of June
each year. Changes in the constituents are preannounced and subject to change if
any corporate activity occurs or if any new information is received prior to
release.

The indexes were rebalanced quarterly from 1979 to 1986 and semi-annually from
1987 to June 30, 1989. The securities for these time periods (through Dec. 31,
1988) were ranked based on the month of rebalancing, that is, for March 1979 the
securities were ranked based on their total market capitalization at March 31,
1979.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION ABOUT RUSSELL MIDCAP(R) GROWTH INDEX

You can obtain the level of the index at any time from the Bloomberg(R) service
under the symbol "RDG".

The following table presents the high and low index level during each quarter of
2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 (through the date of this pricing supplement), and the
closing price at the end of each quarter of 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 (through
the date of this pricing supplement).

These results are not indications of future performance. Lehman Brothers
Holdings cannot assure you that the level of the index will increase enough so
that the alternative redemption amount will be greater than $1,000.

All information in the table that follows was obtained from Bloomberg L.P.

(1)  This figure reflects the threshold value.


The above figures are for purposes of illustration only. The actual amount
received by investors and the resulting total and pre-tax rates of return will
depend entirely on the actual settlement value determined by the calculation
agent. In particular, the actual settlement value could be lower or higher than
those reflected in the table.

The table above only provides hypothetical return information with regard to
notes held to maturity. It is not applicable in the case of notes repurchased or
redeemed prior to the stated maturity date.

You should compare the features of the notes to other available investments
before deciding to purchase the notes. Due to the uncertainty as to whether the
alternative redemption amount, at stated maturity or in connection with a
repurchase or redemption, will be greater than $1,000 per $1,000 note or whether
the notes will be redeemed prior to the stated maturity date, the return on
investment with respect to the notes may be higher or lower than the return
available on other securities issued by Lehman Brothers Holdings or by others
and available through Lehman Brothers Inc. You should reach an investment
decision only after carefully considering the suitability of the notes in light
of your particular circumstances.

           SUPPLEMENTAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

Lehman Brothers Holdings is required to provide the comparable yield to you and,
solely for tax purposes, is also required to provide a projected payment
schedule that includes the actual interest payments on the notes and estimates
the amount and timing of contingent payments on the notes. Lehman Brothers
Holdings has determined that the comparable yield is an annual rate of 5.2245%
compounded semi-annually. Based on the comparable yield, the projected payment
schedule per $1,000 note is $1.25 semi-annually and $1415.24 due at maturity.
Lehman Brothers Holdings agrees and, by purchasing a note, you agree, for United
States federal income tax purposes, to be bound by Lehman Brothers Holdings'
determination of the comparable yield and projected payment schedule. As a
consequence, for United States federal income tax purposes, you must use the
comparable yield determined by Lehman Brothers Holdings and the projected
payments set forth in the projected payment schedule prepared by Lehman Brothers
Holdings in determining your interest accruals, and the adjustments thereto, in
respect of the notes.

                        SUPPLEMENTAL PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Lehman Brothers Holdings has agreed to sell to Lehman Brothers Inc. and Lehman
Brothers Inc. has agreed to purchase, all of the notes at the price indicated on
the cover of this pricing supplement.

Lehman Brothers Holdings has agreed to indemnify Lehman Brothers Inc. against
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
or to contribute to payments that Lehman Brothers Inc. may be required to make
relating to these liabilities as described in the MTN prospectus supplement and
the base prospectus.

Lehman Brothers Inc. will offer the notes initially at a public offering price
equal to the issue price set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement.
After the initial public offering, the public offering price may from time to
time be varied by Lehman Brothers Inc.

Lehman Brothers Holdings has granted to Lehman Brothers Inc. an option to
purchase, at any time within 13 days of the original issuance of the notes, up
to $7,050,000 additional aggregate principal amount of notes solely to cover
over-allotments. To the extent that the option is exercised, Lehman Brothers
Inc. will be committed, subject to certain conditions, to purchase the
additional notes. If this option is exercised in full, the total public offering
price, the underwriting discount and proceeds to Lehman Brothers Holdings would
be $54,050,000, $135,125 and $53,914,875, respectively.

Lehman Brothers Holdings expects to deliver the notes against payment on or
about December 8, 2005, which is the fifth business day following the date of
this pricing supplement.

Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally
are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such
trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, if any purchaser wishes to trade
the notes on the date of this pricing supplement, it will be required, by virtue
of the fact that the notes initially will settle on the fifth business day
following the date of this pricing supplement, to specify an alternate
settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement.

An affiliate of Lehman Brothers Holdings has entered into a swap transaction in
connection with the notes and has received customary compensation for that
transaction.
