SUMMARY INFORMATION — Q&A

This summary highlights selected information from this pricing supplement, the MTN prospectus supplement and the base prospectus to help you understand the notes. You should carefully read this pricing supplement, the MTN prospectus supplement and the base prospectus to understand fully the terms of the notes and the tax and other considerations that are important to you in making a decision about whether to invest in the notes. You should pay special attention to the “Risk Factors” section on page PS-4 and page S-4 of the MTN prospectus supplement to determine whether an investment in the notes is appropriate for you.

What are the notes?

The notes will be a series of our senior debt that are linked to the performance of Crude Oil.

The notes will rank equally with all other unsecured debt of Lehman Brothers Holdings, except subordinated debt, and will mature on April 17, 2007 (or if such day is not a New York business day, the next succeeding New York business day).

What payments will I receive on the notes before maturity?

None. Unlike ordinary debt securities, the notes do not pay interest before maturity.

What will I receive if I hold the notes until the stated maturity date?

We have designed this type of note for investors who want to take a view on the daily price of the Crude Oil Contract relative to the specified Lower Boundary and the final price of the Crude Oil Contract on the Valuation Date. At maturity, you will receive a payment equal to the sum of:

·                  the principal amount of the notes; plus

·                  the Fixed Return; plus

·                  if Crude OilREF is equal to or less than the Lower Barrier on any Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period, the Principal Adjustment Amount.

You can review hypothetical Redemption Adjustment Amount payment examples under “Description of the Notes—Information on the Crude Oil Contract”.

The Fixed Return is an amount equal to the principal amount of the notes multiplied by 2.8125%, rounded to the nearest whole cent.

The notes are not principal protected, even if held to maturity.  If Crude OilREF is equal to or less than the Lower Barrier on any Exchange Business Day (as defined in “Description of the Notes” below) during the Observation Period, the Principal Adjustment Amount will be payable, which Principal Adjustment Amount may be negative, and will in no event be greater than zero.  To the extent the Principal Adjustment Amount is less than -2.8125% times the principal amount of the notes, the Redemption Amount per note will be less than, and may be substantially less than, the principal amount invested.

The Observation Period is the period from and including the date hereof to and including the Valuation Date, which is five Exchange Business Days (as defined in “Description of the Notes” below) before the Maturity Date; provided that, if a Disruption Event (as defined in “Description of the Notes” below) is in effect on the scheduled Valuation Date, the Valuation Date may be postponed (as described in “Description of the Notes” below).

Crude Oil is light sweet crude oil.

Crude OilREF is, for any Exchange Business Day within the Observation Period, the Crude Oil Price on such Exchange Business Day (subject to the occurrence of a Disruption Event).  Crude OilREF on the Valuation Date shall equal the Final Crude Oil Price (subject to the occurrence of a Disruption Event).

The Crude Oil Price is the official settlement price of the Crude Oil Contract, expressed as the U.S. dollar price per barrel of Crude Oil, as made public by the Relevant Exchange (subject to the occurrence of a Disruption Event).

The Crude Oil Contract is the first nearby month Crude Oil futures contract (or, in the case of the last trading day of the first nearby month contract, the second nearby month contract) traded on the Relevant Exchange.

You can review historical performance of the Crude Oil Contract under “Description of the Notes—Information on the Crude Oil Contract”.

How will the Principal Adjustment Amount be calculated?

The Principal Adjustment Amount is equal to the principal amount of the notes multiplied by the lesser of (a) the Crude Oil Return and (b) 0%, rounded to the nearest whole cent.  The Principal Adjustment Amount, if applicable, will in no event be greater than zero, and will be negative if the Final Crude Oil Price is less than the Crude Oil Strike.

The Crude Oil Return is a quotient, (x) the numerator of which is the Final Crude Oil Price minus the Crude Oil Strike and (y) the denominator of which is the Crude Oil Strike.

PS - 1




The Final Crude Oil Price is the Crude Oil Price on the Valuation Date.

The Relevant Exchange is the NYMEX Division, or its successor, of the New York Mercantile Exchange, Inc., or its successor (subject to certain conditions described in “Description of the Notes” below).

For further information concerning the calculation of the Principal Adjustment Amount, see “Description of the Notes.”


How is the Lower Barrier determined?

The Lower Barrier is $41.5040, which is equal to the Crude Oil Strike multiplied by 80%.  The Crude Oil Strike is equal to $51.88, which is the Crude Oil Price on the date hereof.

How will I be able to find the price of the Crude Oil Contract at any point in time?

You can obtain the price of the Crude Oil Contract at any time by calling your Lehman Brothers sales representative.

Are there any risks associated with my investment?

Yes, the notes will be subject to a number of risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on PS-4 and page S-4 of the MTN prospectus supplement.

What about taxes?

We intend to treat the notes as financial contracts as described under “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Consequences” below and “Supplemental United States Federal Income Tax Consequences—Financial Contracts” in the MTN prospectus supplement.

What happens in the event of a Disruption Event?

If the Calculation Agent determines that a Disruption Event (as defined in “Description of the Notes” below) has occurred with respect to the Crude Oil Contract or Crude Oil on any Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period to but excluding the earlier of the Valuation Date and the Exchange Business Day on which Crude OilREF was first equal to or less than the Lower Barrier, the Calculation Agent will determine the Crude OilREF applicable to such Exchange Business Day either in accordance with the Fallback Rate Observation Methodology, as defined in “Description of the Notes” below, or, under certain circumstances set forth under “Description of the Notes,” in its sole and absolute discretion taking into account the latest available quotation for the Crude Oil Price and any other information that in good faith it deems relevant. See “Description of the Notes”.

If Crude OilREF was equal to or less than the Lower Barrier on any Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period and, on the Valuation Date, the Calculation Agent determines that a Disruption Event has occurred with respect to the Crude Oil Contract or Crude Oil,the Valuation Date will be postponed to, and the Calculation Agent will determine the Final Crude Oil Price on, the first Exchange Business Day succeeding the Valuation Date on which no Disruption Event is occurring; provided that if a Disruption Event is occurring on each of the three scheduled Exchange Business Days succeeding the Valuation Date, such third scheduled Exchange Business Day shall be deemed the Valuation Date and the Calculation Agent will determine the Final Crude Oil Price on such third scheduled Exchange Business Day succeeding the Valuation Date either in accordance with the Fallback Rate Observation Methodology, or, under certain circumstances set forth under “Description of the Notes,” in its sole and absolute discretion taking into account the latest available quotation for the Crude Oil Price and any other information that in good faith it deems relevant.

Who is Lehman Brothers Holdings?

Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (“Lehman Brothers Holdings”) is one of the leading global investment banks, serving institutional, corporate, government and high-net-worth clients and customers. Lehman Brothers Holdings’ worldwide headquarters in New York and regional headquarters in London and Tokyo are complemented by offices in additional locations in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Latin America and the Asia Pacific region. See “Prospectus Summary — Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.” and “Where You Can Find More Information” on pages 1 and 58, respectively, of the base prospectus.

You may request a copy of any document Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. files with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, at no cost, by writing or telephoning Lehman Brothers Holdings at the address set forth under the caption “Where You Can Find More Information” in the base prospectus.

What is the role of Lehman Brothers Commodity Services Inc.?

Lehman Brothers Commodity Services Inc., one of our subsidiaries, will be the Calculation Agent for purposes of determining whether the Principal

PS - 2




Adjustment Amount is payable on the Maturity Date and, if payable, the amount thereof, as well as determining whether a Disruption Event has occurred and is continuing.  Potential conflicts of interest may exist between Lehman Brothers Commodity Services Inc. and you as a beneficial owner of the notes. See “Risk Factors— An affiliate of ours may act as calculation agent on the notes, creating a potential conflict of interest between you and us” in the MTN prospectus supplement and “Description of the Notes” below.

Can you tell me more about the effect of hedging activity by Lehman Brothers Holdings?

We expect to hedge our obligations under the notes through one or more of our affiliates. This hedging activity will likely involve trading in the Crude Oil Contract or in other instruments, such as options, swaps or futures, based on Crude Oil. This hedging activity could adversely affect the price at which your notes will trade in the secondary market. Moreover, this hedging activity may result in us or our affiliates receiving a profit, even if the market value of the notes declines.  See “Risk Factors—Many factors affect the market value of the notes; these factors interrelate in complex ways and the effect of any one factor may offset or magnify the effect of another factor.” below.

In what form will the notes be issued?

The notes of each series will be represented by one or more global securities that will be deposited with and registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company or its nominee. Except in very limited circumstances you will not receive a certificate for your notes.

Will the notes be listed on a stock exchange?

No, the notes will not be listed on a stock exchange.

After the initial offering of the notes, Lehman Brothers Inc. intends to make a market in the notes and may stabilize or maintain the market price of the notes during the initial distribution of the notes.  However, Lehman Brothers Inc. will not be obligated to engage in any of these market activities or to continue them once they are begun. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the trading market for the notes.

RISK FACTORS

Unlike ordinary debt securities, the return on the notes at maturity depends on the price of the Crude Oil Contract during the terms of the notes. The notes are a riskier investment than ordinary debt securities. Also, the notes are not equivalent to investing directly in the Crude Oil Contract or Crude Oil. Before investing in the notes, certain risk factors should be carefully considered by prospective investors in the notes. Risks specific to the notes are described below and are in addition to, and should be read in conjunction with, the risk factors disclosed in the MTN prospectus supplement.

An investment in the notes is subject to risks associated with the performance of the price of light sweet crude oil

The notes are not principal protected, even if held to maturity, and the return on the notes at maturity (including the return of principal invested) is dependent on the performance of Crude Oil, including whether the Principal Adjustment Amount is payable on the Maturity Date.

If Crude OilREF is greater than the Lower Barrier on each Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period, the Redemption Amount will equal the principal amount of the notes plus the Fixed Return, regardless of the level of the Final Crude Oil Price relative to the Crude Oil Strike.

If, however, Crude OilREF is equal to or less than the Lower Barrier on any Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period, your Redemption Amount on the notes will equal the principal amount you hold plus the Fixed Return plus the Principal Adjustment Amount, which Principal Adjustment Amount may be negative, and will in no event be greater than zero.  Because the Principal Adjustment Amount equals the principal amount of your notes times the lesser of zero and the Crude Oil Return, this means that, if Crude OilREF is equal to or less than the Lower Barrier on any Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period, you will participate in any downside in the Crude Oil Return but not in any upside.  For instance, if Crude OilREF is equal to or less than the Lower Barrier on any Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period and the Final Crude Oil Price is less than the Crude Oil Strike, the Principal Adjustment Amount will be a negative amount equal to the principal amount of the notes times the percentage depreciation in the Final Crude Oil Price relative to the Crude Oil Strike. Given that any negative Principal Adjustment Amount will decrease the Redemption Amount otherwise payable at maturity, to the extent the negative Principal Adjustment Amount more than offsets the Fixed Return (i.e., the Principal Adjustment Amount is less than -2.8125%), the Redemption Amount will be less than, and potentially substantially less than, the principal amount of the notes.  If the Final Crude Oil Price is greater than or equal to the Crude Oil Strike, the Principal Adjustment Amount will be zero; however, because the Lower Barrier is equal to 80% of the Crude Oil Strike (i.e., in order for, Crude OilREF to equal or be less than the Lower Barrier, it would need to depreciate by more than 20% relative to the Crude Oil Strike), the Final Crude Oil Price would need to appreciate substantially as of or subsequent to the day on which Crude OilREF equalled or was less than the Lower Barrier in order for the Principal Adjustment Amount to not be a negative amount.

The price of Crude Oil is primarily affected by the global demand for and supply of Crude Oil. Demand for refined petroleum products by consumers, as well as the agricultural, manufacturing and transportation industries, affects the price of Crude Oil. Crude Oil’s end-use as a refined product is often as transport fuel, industrial fuel and in-home heating fuel. Potential for substitution in most areas exists, although considerations including relative cost often limit substitution levels. Because the precursors of demand for petroleum products are linked to economic activity, demand will tend to reflect economic conditions. Demand is also influenced by government regulations, such as environmental or consumption policies. In addition to general economic activity and demand, prices for Crude Oil are affected by actual and anticipated political events, labor activity and, in particular, direct government intervention (such as embargos) or supply disruptions in major oil producing regions of the world. Such events tend to affect oil prices worldwide, regardless of the location of the event. Supply for Crude Oil may increase or decrease depending on many factors. These include production decisions by the Organization of Oil and Petroleum Exporting Countries and other crude oil producers. In the event of sudden disruptions in the supplies of oil, such as those caused by war, natural events, accidents or acts of terrorism, prices of oil futures contracts could become extremely volatile and unpredictable. Also, sudden and dramatic changes in the futures market may occur, for example, upon a cessation of hostilities that may exist in countries producing oil, the introduction of new or previously withheld supplies into the market or the introduction of substitute products or commodities. A decrease in the price of any of these commodities may have a material adverse effect on the price of

Crude Oil and the return on an investment in the notes.

Many factors affect the market value of the notes; these factors interrelate in complex ways and the effect of any one factor may offset or magnify the effect of another factor

The market value of the notes will be affected by factors that interrelate in complex ways. The effect of one factor may offset the increase in the market value of the notes caused by another factor and the effect of one factor may exacerbate the decrease in the market value of the notes caused by another factor.  For example, the market value of the notes will be affected by changes in the level of interest rates, the time to maturity of the notes (and any associated “time premium”) and our credit ratings.  In addition, the market value of the notes will also be affected by certain specific factors, which are described in the following paragraphs (along with the expected impact on the market value of the notes given a change in that specific factor, assuming all other conditions remain constant).

·                  The price of Crude Oil will affect the market value of the notes. It is expected that the market value of the notes will depend on where the Crude Oil Price is trading relative to the Crude Oil Strike and the Lower Barrier.  If you choose to sell your notes when the Crude Oil Price is trading at a level below either the Lower Barrier or the Crude Oil Strike, or when the market perceives an increased risk of this occurring, the trading price of the notes may be adversely affected, and you may receive substantially less than the principal amount of the notes sold.

·                  Suspension or disruptions of market trading in the commodity markets may adversely affect the value of the notes. The commodity markets are subject to temporary distortions or other disruptions due to various factors, including the lack of liquidity in the markets, the participation of speculators and government regulation and intervention. These circumstances could adversely affect the price of Crude Oil and, therefore, the value of your notes.

·                  Changes in the volatility of Crude Oil and the Crude Oil Contract are expected to affect the market value of the notes. Volatility is the term used to describe the size and frequency of price and/or market fluctuations. Both increase and decreases in the volatility of Crude Oil or the Crude Oil Contract may adversely affect the market value of the notes.  The volatility of Crude Oil and the Crude Oil Contract is affected by a variety of factors, including weather, governmental programs and policies, national and international political and economic events (including terrorist attacks and wars), changes in interest and exchange rates and trading activity in Crude Oil and futures contracts, including the Crude Oil Contract.

·                  Active trading in Crude Oil options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and underlying commodities may adversely affect the value of the notes.  Lehman Brothers Commodity Services Inc. and certain other affiliates of ours actively trade the Crude Oil Contract, Crude Oil and various commodities derived from crude oil on a spot and forward basis and other contracts and products in or related to crude oil and such related commodities (including futures contracts, options on futures contracts and options and swaps on the underlying commodities).  We, Lehman Brothers Inc. or our other affiliates may also issue or underwrite other financial instruments with returns indexed to the prices of Crude Oil or futures contracts on Crude Oil and derivative commodities. These trading and underwriting activities by us, Lehman Brothers Inc., Lehman Brothers Commodity Services Inc. or our other affiliates, or by unaffiliated third parties, could adversely affect the value of the Crude Oil Contract, which could in turn affect the return on and the value of the notes.

·                  Membership on NYMEX.  Lehman Brothers Commodity Services Inc. is a member of NYMEX and, from time to time, employees of Lehman Brothers Commodity Services Inc. may serve on the NYMEX settlement committee and

PS - 5




other committees. These activities could affect the settlement price of the Crude Oil Contract.

The inclusion in the original issue price of the broker’s fee and our cost of hedging our obligations under the notes through one or more of our affiliates is likely to adversely affect the value of the notes prior to maturity.

The original issue price of the notes includes the broker’s fee and our cost of hedging our obligations under the notes through one or more of our affiliates.  Such cost includes such affiliates’ expected cost of providing this hedge, as well as the profit these affiliates expect to realize in consideration for assuming the risks inherent in providing such hedge.  As a result, assuming no change in market conditions or any other relevant factors, the price, if any, at which a broker will be willing to purchase notes from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, will likely be lower than the original issue price.  In addition, any such prices may differ from values determined by pricing models used by a broker, as a result of such compensation or other transaction costs.

Suspension or disruption of market trading in the Crude Oil Contract, Crude Oil or other futures contracts on Crude Oil, including the front-month contract traded on the Relevant Exchange, and certain other events may require a postponement in the Valuation Date for the notes, and may adversely affect the value of the notes.

Certain events, including events involving the suspension or disruption of market trading in the Crude Oil Contract or Crude Oil, constitute Disruption Events under the terms of the notes.  For further information on these events, see “Description of the Notes” below.  To the extent any of these events occurs and remains in effect on the scheduled Valuation Date for the notes, the Valuation Date may be postponed until the Disruption Event ceases to be in effect or, if the Disruption Event remains in effect for three scheduled Exchange Business Days after the Valuation Date, the Final Crude Oil Price will be determined by the Calculation Agent on the basis of price quotations obtained from leading dealers in Crude Oil or, if no such quotations are provided, in its sole discretion based on any information it deems relevant.  In the event the Valuation Date is delayed, the Final Crude Oil Price may be lower and, to the extent that the Crude Oil Price has equalled or traded below the Lower Barrier during the Observation Period, could result in the Principal Adjustment Amount being lower (and potentially resulting in a greater loss of principal), than what you may have anticipated based on the last available closing price of the Crude Oil Contract as of the scheduled Valuation Date.

Lack of regulation by the CFTC.

The notes are debt securities that are our direct obligations. The net proceeds we receive from the sale of the notes will not be used to purchase or sell Crude Oil Contracts on the Relevant Exchange for the benefit of holders of the notes. The notes are not themselves Crude Oil Contracts, and an investment in the notes does not constitute either an investment in Crude Oil Contracts or in a collective investment vehicle that trades in Crude Oil Contracts or Crude Oil.

Unlike an investment in the notes, an investment in a collective investment vehicle that invests in commodities on behalf of its participants may be regulated as a commodity pool and its operator may be required to be registered with and regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) as a “commodity pool operator” (“CPO”). Because the notes are not interests in a commodity pool, the notes will not be regulated by the CFTC as a commodity pool, we will not be registered with the CFTC as a CPO, and you will not benefit from the CFTC’s or any non-U.S. regulatory authority’s regulatory protections afforded to persons who trade in commodities or who invest in regulated commodity pools.

The notes do not constitute investments by you in futures contracts traded on regulated futures exchanges.  Accordingly, you will not benefit from the CFTC’s or any other regulatory authority’s regulatory protections afforded to persons who trade in futures contracts on a regulated futures exchange.

You must rely on your own evaluation of the merits of an investment linked to Crude Oil

In the ordinary course of their businesses, our affiliates may from time to time express views on expected movements in the price of Crude Oil. These views are sometimes communicated to clients who participate in Crude Oil or natural resource markets. However, these views, depending upon world-wide economic, political and other developments, may vary over differing time horizons and are subject to change. Moreover, other professionals who deal in Crude Oil or natural resource markets may at any time have significantly different views from those of

PS - 6




us or our affiliates.  In connection with your purchase of the notes, you should investigate Crude Oil or natural resource markets and not rely on views which may be expressed by us or our affiliates in the ordinary course of their businesses with respect to future Crude Oil price movements.

You should make such investigation as you deem appropriate as to the merits of an investment linked to Crude Oil. Neither the offering of the notes nor any views which may from time to time be expressed by us or our affiliates in the ordinary course of their businesses with respect to future Crude Oil price movements constitutes a recommendation as to the merits of an investment in your notes.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

The U.S.$5,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Crude Oil-Linked Single Barrier Synthetic Reverse Convertible Notes Due April 17, 2007 offered hereby are Medium-Term Notes, Series I, of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.  The CUSIP number for the notes is 52517PS36 and the ISIN number is US52517PS364. The notes will be issued in book-entry form only, and will be eligible for transfer through the facilities of DTC or any successor depository. See “Book-Entry Procedures and Settlement” in the base prospectus.

The notes will be issued in minimum denominations of U.S.$1,000 and in integral multiples of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof, and will have a stated “Maturity Date” of April 17, 2007 or if such day is not a New York business day, the next succeeding New York business day.

The notes are offered as commodity-linked notes with a Fixed Return and with a Principal Adjustment Amount determined by reference to the performance of the price of the Crude Oil Contract in relation to the Lower Barrier and the Crude Oil Strike.

Holders of the notes will receive on the Maturity Date a single payment in U.S. Dollars in an amount equal to the Redemption Amount as described below.  No interest will accrue during the term of the notes and no interest will be payable on the Maturity Date except in the event that the Redemption Amount is not paid when due, as described below.

The “Redemption Amount” for each note will be an amount equal to (a) the principal amount of the notes plus (b) the Fixed Return plus (c) if Crude OilREF is equal to or less than the Lower Barrier on any Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period, the Principal Adjustment Amount.

The notes are not principal protected, even if held to maturity.  If Crude OilREF is equal to or less than the Lower Barrier on any Exchange Business Dayduring the Observation Period, the Principal Adjustment Amount will be payable, which Principal Adjustment Amount may be negative, and will in no event be greater than zero.  To the extent the Principal Adjustment Amount is less than -2.8125% times the principal amount of the notes, the Redemption Amount per note will be less than, and may be substantially less than, the principal amount invested.

The “Fixed Return” is an amount equal to the principal amount of the notes multiplied by 2.8125%, rounded to the nearest whole cent.

The “Principal Adjustment Amount” is an amount equal to the principal amount of the notes multiplied by the lesser of (a) the Crude Oil Return, and (b) 0%, rounded to the nearest whole cent.  The Principal Adjustment Amount, if applicable, will in no event be greater than zero, and will be negative if the Final Crude Oil Price is less than the Crude Oil Strike.

The “Trade Date” is the date hereof.

The “Observation Period” is the period from and including the Trade Date to and including the Valuation Date.

The “Valuation Date” is 5 Exchange Business Days prior to the Maturity Date; provided that, if a Disruption Event is in effect on the scheduled Valuation Date, the Valuation Date may be postponed (as described below).

Crude Oil” is light sweet crude oil.

The “Crude Oil Contract” is the first nearby month Crude Oil futures contract (or, in the case of the last trading day of the first nearby month contract, the second nearby month contract) traded on the Relevant Exchange.

The “Crude Oil Price” is the official settlement price of the Crude Oil Contract, expressed as the U.S. dollar price per barrel of Crude Oil, as made public by the Relevant Exchange (subject to the occurrence of a Disruption Event).

 “Crude OilREF” is, for any Exchange Business Day within the Observation Period, the Crude Oil Price on such Exchange Business Day.  Crude OilREF on the Valuation Date shall equal the Final Crude Oil Price.

The “Lower Barrier” is $41.5040, equal to the Crude Oil Strike multiplied by 80%.

The “Crude Oil Strike” is $51.88, equal to the Crude Oil Price on the Trade Date.

The “Final Crude Oil Price” is the Crude Oil Price on the Valuation Date.

The “Crude Oil Return” is a quotient, (x) the numerator of which is the Final Crude Oil Price minus the Crude Oil Strike and (y) the denominator of which is the Crude Oil Strike.

The “Relevant Exchange” is the NYMEX Division, or its successor, of the New York Mercantile Exchange, Inc., or its successor; or, if NYMEX is no longer the principal exchange or trading market for Crude Oil options or futures contracts, such other exchange or principal trading market for Crude Oil as

PS - 8




determined in good faith by the Calculation Agent which serves as the source of prices for Crude Oil, and any principal exchanges where options or futures contracts on Crude Oil are traded.

An “Exchange Business Day” is a day, as determined by the Calculation Agent, on which the Relevant Exchange is scheduled to be (or, but for the occurrence of a Disruption Event, would have been) open for trading during its regular trading session (notwithstanding the Relevant Exchange closing prior to its scheduled closing time).

If a Disruption Event identified in clauses (A), (B) or (C) below is in effect on any Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period to but excluding the earlier of (i) the Valuation Date and (ii) the Exchange Business Day on which Crude OilREF was first equal to or less than the Lower Barrier, the Calculation Agent will determine Crude OilREF applicable to such Exchange Business Day in accordance with the “Fallback Price Determination” below.  If a Disruption Event identified in clauses (D) or (E) below is in effect on any such Exchange Business Day, the Calculation Agent will determine Crude OilREF applicable to such Exchange Business Day in its sole and absolute discretion taking into account the latest available quotation for the Crude Oil Price and any other information that in good faith it deems relevant.

If Crude OilREF was equal to or less than the Lower Barrier on any Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period and, on the Valuation Date, a Disruption Event identified in clauses (A), (B) or (C) below is in effect, the Valuation Date will be postponed to, and the Calculation Agent will determine the Final Crude Oil Price on, the first Exchange Business Day succeeding the Valuation Date on which no Disruption Event is occurring; provided that if a Disruption Event is occurring on each of the three scheduled Exchange Business Days succeeding the Valuation Date, such third scheduled Exchange Business Day shall be deemed the Valuation Date and the Calculation Agent will determine the Final Crude Oil Price on such third scheduled Exchange Business Day succeeding the Valuation Date in accordance with the “Fallback Price Determination” below.  If Crude OilREF was less than or equal to the Lower Barrier on any Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period and, on the Valuation Date, a Disruption Event identified in clauses (D) or (E) below is in effect, the Calculation Agent will determine the Final Crude Oil Price on the Valuation Date in its sole and absolute discretion, taking into account the latest available quotation for the settlement price of the Crude Oil Contract and any other information that in good faith it deems relevant.

A “Disruption Event” means any of the following events as determined in good faith by the Calculation Agent:

(A)      the suspension of or material limitation on trading in the Crude Oil Contract or Crude Oil, or futures contracts or options related to the Crude Oil Contract or Crude Oil, on the Relevant Exchange;

(B)        either (i) the failure of trading to commence, or permanent discontinuance of trading, in the Crude Oil Contract or Crude Oil, or futures contracts or options related to the Crude Oil Contract or Crude Oil, on the Relevant Exchange, or (ii) the disappearance of, or of trading in, Crude Oil;

(C)        the failure of the Relevant Exchange to publish the official daily settlement price for that day for the Crude Oil Contract (or the information necessary for determining the settlement price);

(D)       the occurrence since the Trade Date of a material change in the content, composition, or constitution of Crude Oil or the Crude Oil Contract; or

(E)         the occurrence since the Trade Date of a material change in the formula for or the method of calculating the settlement price of the Crude Oil Contract.

For the purpose of determining whether a Disruption Event has occurred:

(1)          a limitation on the hours in a trading day and/or number of days of trading will not constitute a Disruption Event if it results from an announced change in the regular business hours of the Relevant Exchange;

(2)          a suspension in trading on the Relevant Exchange (without taking into account any extended or after-hours trading session), in the Crude Oil Contract, by reason of a price change reflecting the maximum permitted price change from the previous trading day’s settlement price will constitute a Disruption Event; and

(3)          a suspension of or material limitation on trading on the Relevant Exchange will not include any time when the Relevant Exchange is closed for trading under ordinary circumstances.

PS - 9




In the event that the “Fallback Price Determination” is invoked, the Calculation Agent will determine Crude OilREF applicable to the relevant Exchange Business Day, or the Final Crude Oil Price on the Valuation Date, as the case may be, by requesting four leading dealers in Crude Oil (selected in the sole discretion of the Calculation Agent) (the “Reference Dealers”) to provide price quotations for the relevant Crude OilREF or the Final Crude Oil Price.  If at least two quotations are provided, the relevant Crude OilREF or the Final Crude Oil Price, as the case may be, will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations.  If only one Reference Dealer provides a price quotation, then the Calculation Agent, in its sole discretion, will determine whether that quotation is reasonable to be used.  If the Calculation Agent determines that such single price quotation is not reasonable to be used, or if no price quotation is provided, the Calculation Agent will determine the relevant Crude OilREF or the Final Crude Oil Price, as the case may be, in its sole and absolute discretion taking into account the latest available quotation for the settlement price of the Crude Oil Contract and any other information that in good faith it deems relevant.

The notes are not subject to redemption at our option or to repayment at the option of the Holders of the notes prior to the Maturity Date.

In case an event of default (as described in the base prospectus) with respect to any note shall have occurred and be continuing, the amount that may be declared due and payable upon any acceleration of the notes will be determined by the Calculation Agent and will equal, for each note, the principal amount plus (a) the Fixed Return deemed to have accrued for the period from and including the Trade Date to but excluding the date of early repayment calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of 12 months of 30 days each, and, in the case of an incomplete month, the number of days elapsed, and (b) the Principal Adjustment Amount, calculated as though the maturity of the notes were the date of early repayment.  If a bankruptcy proceeding is commenced in respect of Lehman Brothers Holdings, the claim of the beneficial owner of a note will be capped at the principal amount plus (a) the Fixed Return deemed to have accrued for the period from and including the Trade Date to but excluding the date of the commencement of the proceeding calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of 12 months of 30 days each, and, in the case of an incomplete month, the number of days elapsed, and (b) the Principal Adjustment Amount, calculated as though the maturity of the notes were the date of the commencement of the proceeding.

Any overdue payment in respect of any note will bear interest until the date upon which all sums due in respect of such note are received by or on behalf of the relevant Holder, at the rate per annum that is the rate for deposits in U.S. dollars for a period of six months that appears on the Reuters Screen LIBOR page as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the first London business day following such failure to pay. Such rate will be determined by the Calculation Agent.  If interest in respect of overdue amounts is calculated for a period of less than one year, it will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of 12 months of 30 days each, and, in the case of an incomplete month, the number of days elapsed.

The “Calculation Agent” means Lehman Brothers Commodity Services Inc.

Information on the Crude Oil Contract

The Futures Markets

An exchange-traded futures contract, such as the Crude Oil Contract, provides for the future purchase and sale of a specified type and quantity of a commodity. The contract provides for a specified settlement month in which the commodity is to be delivered by the seller. Rather than settlement by physical delivery of the commodity, futures contracts may be settled for the cash value of the right to receive or sell the specified commodity on the specified date.

Futures contracts are traded on organized exchanges such as NYMEX, known as “contract markets,” through the facilities of a centralized clearing house and a brokerage firm which is a member of the clearing house.  The clearing house guarantees the performance of each clearing member which is a party to a futures contract by, in effect, taking the opposite side of the transaction.  U.S. futures markets, as well as brokers and market participants, are subject to regulation by the CFTC.  Because the notes do not constitute futures contracts or commodity options subject to the Commodity Exchange Act, noteholders will not benefit from the aforementioned clearing house guarantees or the regulatory protections of the CFTC.

The Crude Oil Contract

Whether or not the Principal Adjustment Amount is payable at maturity, and the amount of that Principal Adjustment Amount (if any), will be determined by reference to the price of the Crude Oil Contract traded on NYMEX.  We have derived all information regarding the Crude Oil Contract and NYMEX from publicly available sources. Such information reflects the policies of, and is subject to change without

PS - 10




notice by, NYMEX. We make no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of such information.

The Crude Oil Contract trades in units of 1,000 barrels and the delivery point is Cushing, Oklahoma. The Crude Oil Contract provides for delivery of several grades of domestic and internationally traded foreign crude oils. It may be settled by delivery of West Texas Intermediate, Low Sweet Mix, New Mexican Sweet, North Texas Sweet, Oklahoma Sweet or South Texas Sweet.

A “first nearby month” contract is the contract next scheduled for settlement. For example, as of January 2, 2007, the front-month light, sweet crude oil futures contract is the February 2007 futures contract, which is a contract for delivery of light, sweet crude oil in February 2007.

The following summarizes selected specifications relating to the Crude Oil Contract as traded on the NYMEX:

Trading Unit:  1,000 U.S. barrels (42,000 gallons)

Price Quotation:  U.S. dollars and cents per barrel

Minimum Price Fluctuation:  $.01 per barrel ($10.00 per contract)

Maximum Daily Price Fluctuation: $10.00 per barrel ($10,000 per contract). If any contract is traded, bid, or offered at the limit for five minutes, trading is halted for five minutes. When trading resumes, the limit is expanded by $10.00 per barrel in either direction. If another halt were triggered, the market would continue to be expanded by $10.00 per barrel in either direction after each successive five-minute trading halt. There is no maximum price fluctuation limit during any one trading session.

Last Trading Day: Trading terminates at the close of business on the third business day prior to the 25th calendar day of the month preceding the delivery month. If the 25th calendar day of the month is a non-business day, trading shall cease on the third business day prior to the business day preceding the 25th calendar day. For example, trading for the February 2007 futures contract, which is a contract for delivery of light, sweet crude oil in February 2007 is scheduled to end on January 22, 2007.

Deliverable Grades: Specific domestic crudes with 0.42% sulfur by weight or less, not less than 37(degree) API gravity nor more than 42(degree) API gravity. The following domestic crude streams are deliverable: West Texas Intermediate, Low Sweet Mix, New Mexican Sweet, North Texas Sweet, Oklahoma Sweet, South Texas Sweet. Specific foreign crudes of not less than 34(degree) API nor more than 42(degree) API. The following foreign streams are deliverable: U.K. Brent and Forties, for which the seller shall receive a $.30 per barrel discount below the final settlement price; Norwegian Oseberg Blend is delivered at a $.55-per-barrel discount; Nigerian Bonny Light, Qua Iboe, and Colombian Cusiana are delivered at $.15 premiums.

Historical Prices

The following chart shows the daily closing price of the Crude Oil Contract on NYMEX from January 1, 2007 through January 11, 2007 using historical data obtained from Reuters; neither we nor Lehman Brothers Inc. make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of these prices.  The historical data on the Crude Oil Price is not necessarily indicative of the future performance of the Crude Oil Price or the Crude Oil Contract during the term of the notes, whether or not Crude OilREF will trade at or below the Lower Barrier, the Final Crude Oil Price or what the value of the notes may be.  Fluctuations in Crude Oil Contract prices make it difficult to predict whether or not Crude OilREF will trade at or below the Lower Barrier or whether the Principal Adjustment Amount will be payable at maturity will be (or whether that Principal Adjustment Amount will be negative and therefore result in a positive return on the notes or a loss of principal).  Historical fluctuations in the Crude Oil Contract prices may be greater or lesser than fluctuations in the Crude Oil Contract price experienced by the holders of the notes.

Hypothetical Redemption Amount Payment Examples

If Crude OilREF is greater than the Lower Barrier on each Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period, the Principal Adjustment Amount will not be payable, and the Redemption Amount at maturity will equal the principal amount of the notes plus the Fixed Return of 2.8125%, rounded to the nearest whole cent, regardless of the level of the Final Crude Oil Price relative to the Crude Oil Strike.  If, however, Crude OilREF equals or is lower than the Lower Barrier on any Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period, the Redemption Amount on the notes will equal the principal amount you hold plus the Fixed Return plus the Principal Adjustment Amount, which Principal Adjustment Amount may be negative, and will in no event be greater than zero.  If Crude OilREF is equal to or less than the Lower Barrier on any Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period and the Final Crude Oil Price is less than the Crude Oil Strike, the Principal Adjustment Amount will be a negative amount equal to the principal amount of the notes times the percentage depreciation in the Final Crude Oil Price relative to the Crude Oil Strike.  To the extent that the negative Principal Adjustment Amount more than offsets the Fixed Return (i.e. the Principal Adjustment Amount is less than
-2.8125%), the Redemption Amount will be less than, and potentially substantially less than, the principal amount of the notes.  If, however, the Final Crude Oil Price is greater than or equal to the Crude Oil Strike (because the Final Crude Oil Price appreciated substantially as of or subsequent to the day on which Crude OilREF equalled or was less than the Lower Barrier), the Principal Adjustment Amount will be zero.  See “Description of the Notes.”

The table below illustrates the hypothetical Redemption Amount at maturity (including the payment of the Fixed Return and the applicable Principal Adjustment Amount, if any) per $1,000 in principal amount of notes, based on the Crude Oil Strike of $51.88 and the Lower Barrier of $41.5040 (each as determined on the Trade Date), as well as on hypothetical trading ranges for Crude OilREF during the Observation Period and, based on such hypothetical trading ranges, whether Crude OilREF was equal to or lower than the Lower Barrier.  The table below also assumes a hypothetical range of performance for the Crude Oil Return from -50% to +20%.  The following results are based solely on the hypothetical examples cited; the trading ranges for Crude OilREF, whether or not Crude OilREF remains above the Lower Barrier during the Observation Period, and the Final Crude Oil Price have been chosen arbitrarily for the purpose of these examples and should not be taken as indicative of the future performance of the Crude Oil Price.  Numbers in the table below have been rounded for ease of analysis.

The following examples illustrate the total returns set forth in the table above:

Example 1:  Crude OilREF remained above the Lower Barrier throughout the Observation Period and the Final Crude Oil Price is 20% higher than the Crude Oil Strike.  Because Crude OilREF exceeded the Lower Barrier throughout the Observation Period, the Principal Adjustment Amount is not payable, and the Redemption Amount at maturity is equal to the principal amount of the notes plus the Fixed Return, or $1,028.13 per $1,000 principal amount of notes, irrespective of the fact that the Final Crude Oil Price appreciated relative to the Crude Oil Strike.

Example 2:  Crude OilREF remained above the Lower Barrier throughout the Observation Period and the Final Crude Oil Price is 15% lower than the Crude Oil Strike.  Because Crude OilREF exceeded the Lower Barrier throughout the Observation Period, the Principal Adjustment Amount is not payable, and the Redemption Amount at maturity is equal to the principal amount of the notes plus the Fixed Return, or $1,028.13 per $1,000 principal amount of notes, irrespective of the fact that the Final Crude Oil Price depreciated relative to the Crude Oil Strike.

Example 3:  Crude OilREF was less than the Lower Barrier during the Observation Period and the Final Crude Oil Price is 40% lower than the Crude Oil Strike.   Because Crude OilREF was less

PS - 14




 

than the Lower Barrier on at least one Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period, the Principal Adjustment Amount is payable on the maturity date.  In this case, the depreciation in the Final Crude Oil Price relative to the Crude Oil Strike results in a Crude Oil Return of -40%.  Based on this Crude Oil Return, the Principal Adjustment Amount is equal to -$400 per $1,000 principal amount of notes and, when added to the principal amount of notes and the Fixed Return, results in a Redemption Amount at maturity of $628.00 per $1,000 principal amount of notes, a loss of $371.87 of principal, calculated as follows:

Redemption Amount = $1,000 +$28.13 + {$1,000 * [(36.316-51.88)/51.88]} = $628.13

Example 4:  Crude OilREF was less than the Lower Barrier during the Observation Period and the Final Crude Oil Price is 20% higher than the Crude Oil Strike.  Because Crude OilREF was less than the Lower Barrier on at least one Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period, the Principal Adjustment Amount is payable on the maturity date.  In this case, although the Crude Oil Return is +20%, the Principal Adjustment Amount is equal to the principal amount of the notes times the lesser of the Crude Oil Return and 0%.  Accordingly, the Principal Adjustment Amount is zero regardless of the appreciation in the Final Crude Oil Price relative to the Crude Oil Strike, and the Redemption Amount at maturity is equal to the principal amount of the notes plus the Fixed Return, or $1,028.13 per $1,000 principal amount of notes.

Example 5:  Crude OilREF was less than the Lower Barrier during the Observation Period and the Final Crude Oil Price is 5% lower than the Crude Oil Strike.  Because Crude OilREF was less than the Lower Barrier on at least one Exchange Business Day during the Observation Period, the Principal Adjustment Amount is payable on the maturity date.  In this case, the depreciation in the Final Crude Oil Price relative to the Crude Oil Strike results in a Crude Oil Return of -5%. Based on this Crude Oil Return, the Principal Adjustment Amount is equal to -$50 per $1,000 principal amount of notes and, when added to the principal amount of the notes and the Fixed Return, results in a Redemption Amount at maturity of $978.13 per $1,000 principal amount of notes, a loss of $21.87 in principal, calculated as follows:

Redemption Amount = $1,000 +$28.13 + {$1,000 * [(49.286-51.88)/ 51.88]} = $9781.13
