Summary Description

The Principal at Risk Buffered Return Enhanced Notes Linked to a Basket of Asian Indices (the “Notes”) are designed for investors who seek buffered risk and potentially enhanced returns from leveraged exposure, from the Pricing Date to the Valuation Date, to a basket of Asian indices (the “Basket”, which consists of FTSE/Xinhua China 25^® Index, the KOSPI 200 Index^SM, the MSCI Singapore Free Index^SM and the MSCI Taiwan^SM Index). Investments that are partially buffered against market declines can help reduce portfolio risk while maintaining enhanced participation in equities. Investors should be willing to forgo interest and dividend payments during the term of the Notes and, if the Basket declines by more than 10%, be willing to lose some or all of their principal.

ADDITIONAL TERMS SPECIFIC TO THE NOTES

Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. has filed a registration statement (including a base prospectus) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, for this offering. Before you invest, you should read this term sheet together with the base prospectus, as supplemented by the MTN prospectus supplement relating to our Series I medium-term notes of which the Notes are a part, and the more detailed information contained in product supplement no. 20-I (which supplements the description of the general terms of the Notes) and underlying supplement no. 960 (which describes each of the Basket Indices, as defined herein, including risk factors specific to each). Buyers should rely upon the base prospectus, the MTN prospectus supplement, product supplement no. 20-I, underlying supplement no. 960, this term sheet and any other relevant terms supplement for complete details. This term sheet, together with the documents listed below, contains the terms of the Notes and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous communications concerning the Notes. To the extent that there are any inconsistencies among the documents listed below, this term sheet shall supersede product supplement no. 20-I, which shall, likewise, supersede the base prospectus and the MTN prospectus supplement. You should carefully consider, among other things, the matters set forth in “Risk Factors” in the accompanying product supplement no. 20-I and “Risk Factors” in the accompanying underlying supplement no. 960, as the Notes involve risks not associated with conventional debt securities. We urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors before you invest in the Notes. You may get these documents and other documents Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. has filed for free by searching the SEC online database (EDGAR^®) at www.sec.gov, with “Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.” as a search term or through the links below, or by calling Lehman Brothers Inc. toll-free at 1-888-603-5847.

You may access these documents on the SEC website at www.sec.gov as follows (or if such address has changed, by reviewing our filings for the relevant date on the SEC website):

http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/806085/000104746906007771/a2165526zs-3asr.htm

As used in this term sheet, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refers to Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.

Selected Purchase Considerations

• Uncapped Appreciation Potential: The Notes provide the opportunity to enhance equity returns by multiplying a positive Basket Return by a Participation Rate in the range of 119% to 124% (the actual Participation Rate will be determined on the Pricing Date). The Notes are not subject to a predetermined maximum gain and, accordingly, any return at maturity will be determined by the appreciation of the Basket. Because the Notes are our senior unsecured obligations, payment of any amount at maturity is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.

• Limited Protection Against Loss: Payment at maturity of the full principal amount of the Notes is protected only against a decline of up to 10% from the Basket Starting Level. If the Basket Ending Level represents a decline of more than 10% from the Basket Starting Level, for every 1% decline of the Basket beyond 10%, you will lose an amount equal to 1.11111% of the principal amount of your Notes.

• Diversification Among the Basket Indices: The return on the Notes is linked to a basket consisting of the FTSE/Xinhua China 25^® Index, KOSPI 200 Index^SM, the MSCI Singapore Free Index^SM and the MSCI Taiwan^SM Index. The FTSE/Xinhua China 25^® Index is based on the 25 largest and most liquid Chinese red-chip stocks that are listed and traded on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Ltd. The KOSPI 200 Index^SM is a sampled constituent, market capitalization weighted index of 200 Korean blue-chip stocks which make up

TS-1

almost 80% of the current market capitalization. The MSCI Singapore Free Index^SM targets an 85% free float adjusted market representation level within each industry group in Singapore. The MSCI Taiwan^SM Index targets an 85% free float adjusted market representation level within each industry group in Taiwan. For additional information about each Basket Index, see the information set forth under “The FTSE/Xinhua China 25^® Index,” “KOSPI 200 Index^SM,” “The MSCI Singapore Free Index^SM” and “The MSCI Taiwan^SM Index” in the accompanying underlying supplement no. 960.

• Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences: Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. intends to treat, and by purchasing a Note, for all tax purposes, you agree to treat, a Note as a cash-settled financial contract, rather than as a debt instrument. See “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in product supplement no. 20-I.

Selected Risk Factors

An investment in the Notes involves significant risks. Investing in the Notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the Basket Indices or any of the stocks included in the Basket Indices. These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” section of the accompanying product supplement no. 20-I and in the “Risk Factors” section of the accompanying underlying supplement no. 960. You should reach an investment decision only after you have carefully considered with your advisors the suitability of an investment in the Notes in light of your particular circumstances.

• Your Investment in the Notes May Result in a Loss: The Notes do not guarantee any return of principal at maturity. The return on the Notes at maturity is linked to the performance of the Basket and will depend on whether, and the extent to which, the Basket Return is positive or negative. Your investment will be exposed on a leveraged basis to a decline in the Basket Ending Level beyond the 10% buffer as compared to the Basket Starting Level. YOU MAY LOSE SOME OR ALL OF YOUR PRINCIPAL IF THE LEVEL OF THE BASKET DECLINES.

• Changes in the Level of the Basket Indices May Offset Each Other: The Notes are linked to a basket composed of four Basket Indices. At a time when the level of one or more Basket Indices increases, the level of the other Basket Index or Basket Indices may not increase as much or may even decline. Therefore, in calculating the Basket Ending Level, increases in the level of one or more of the Basket Indices may be moderated, or more than offset, by lesser increases or declines in the level one or more of the other Basket Indices.

• No Interest or Dividend Payments or Voting Rights: As a holder of the Notes, you will not receive interest payments, and you will not have voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions or other rights that holders of stocks included in the Basket Indices would have.

• Certain Built-in Costs are Likely to Adversely Affect the Value of the Notes Prior to Maturity: While the payment at maturity described in this term sheet is based on the full principal amount of your Notes, the original issue price of the Notes includes the agent’s commission and the cost of hedging our obligations under the Notes through one or more of our affiliates, which includes our affiliates’ expected cost of providing such hedge as well as the profit our affiliates expect to realize in consideration for assuming the risks inherent in providing such hedge. As a result, the price, if any, at which Lehman Brothers Inc. will be willing to purchase Notes from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, will likely be lower than the original issue price and any sale prior to the Maturity Date could result in a substantial loss to you. The Notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. YOU SHOULD BE WILLING TO HOLD YOUR NOTES TO MATURITY.

• The Basket Return Will Not Be Adjusted for Changes in Exchange Rates Relative to the U.S. Dollar, But the Notes Will Have Some Exposure to Exchange Rate Fluctuations: The value of your Notes will not be adjusted for exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the currencies in which the stocks included in the Basket Indices are based. Therefore, if the applicable currencies appreciate or depreciate relative to the U.S. dollar over the term of the Notes, you will not receive any additional payment or incur any reduction in your return, if any, at maturity. However, because two of the Basket Indices (the MSCI Singapore Free Index^SM and the MSCI Taiwan^SM Index)—but not their component stocks—are denominated in U.S. dollars, you will have foreign currency exposure with respect to those Basket Indices, and the value of your Notes will be affected by exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the currencies in which

TS-2

such component stocks are based. If the applicable currencies appreciate or depreciate relative to the U.S. dollar over the term of the Notes, the value of your Notes may increase or decrease at maturity.

• Dealer Incentives: We and our affiliates act in various capacities with respect to the Notes. Lehman Brothers Inc. and other of our affiliates may act as a principal, agent or dealer in connection with the Notes. Such affiliates, including the sales representatives, will derive compensation from the distribution of the Notes, and such compensation may serve as an incentive to sell the Notes instead of other investments. We will pay compensation of up to $15.00 per Note to the principals, agents and dealers in connection with the distribution of the Notes.

• Lack of Liquidity: The Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Lehman Brothers Inc. intends to offer to purchase the Notes in the secondary market but is not required to do so. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the Notes easily. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the Notes, the price at which you may be able to trade your Notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which Lehman Brothers Inc. is willing to buy the Notes. If you are an employee of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. or one of our affiliates, you may not be able to purchase the Notes from us, and your ability to sell or trade the Notes in the secondary market may be limited.

• Uncertain Tax Treatment: Significant aspects of the tax treatment of the Notes are uncertain. You should consult your own tax advisor about your own tax situation before investing in the Notes.

• Credit of Issuer: An investment in the Notes will be subject to the credit risk of Lehman Brothers Holding Inc., and the actual and perceived creditworthiness of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. may affect the market value of the Notes.

• Potential Conflicts: We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the Notes, including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the Notes. In performing these duties, the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the Notes.

• We and our Affiliates and Agents May Publish Research, Express Opinions or Provide Recommendations that are Inconsistent with Investing in or Holding the Notes. Any Such Research, Opinions or Recommendations Could Affect the Level of the Basket or the Value of the Notes: We, our affiliates and agents publish research from time to time on financial markets and other matters that may influence the value of the Notes, or express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the Notes. We, our affiliates and agents may have published research or other opinions that are inconsistent with the investment view implicit in the Notes. Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by us, our affiliates or agents may not be consistent with each other and may be modified from time to time without notice. Investors should make their own independent investigation of the merits of investing in the Notes which are linked to the Basket.

• Many Economic and Market Factors Will Impact the Value of the Notes: In addition to the level of the Basket on any day, the value of the Notes will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each other and which are set out in more detail in the product supplement no. 20-I.

• You Must Rely on Your Own Evaluation of the Merits of an Investment in the Notes: In the ordinary course of their businesses Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., or its respective affiliates, may from time to time express views on expected movements in the levels of the Basket, the Basket Indices or the stocks underlying the Basket Indices. These views are sometimes communicated to clients that are active participants in the equity markets. However, these views, depending upon worldwide economic, political and other developments, may vary over differing time horizons, may be inconsistent with the investment view implied in the Notes and are subject to change. In connection with your purchase of the Notes, you should investigate the equity markets and not rely on views that may be expressed by Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. or its affiliates in the ordinary course of their businesses with respect to the future performance of the Basket, the Basket Indices or the stocks underlying the Basket Indices.

• The Closing Levels of the Basket Indices on the Valuation Date May be Below the Closing Levels of the Basket Indices at the Maturity Date or at Other Times During the Term of the Notes: Because the Basket Ending Level is calculated based on the closing levels of the Basket Indices on the Valuation Date and not on the Maturity Date or any other date during the term of the Notes, significant volatility in the closing levels of the Basket Indices at or around the time of the Valuation Date could materially affect the Payment at Maturity. For example, a significant decline in the closing levels of the Basket Indices on the Valuation Date would result in a corresponding decline in the Payment at Maturity notwithstanding a significant increase in the closing levels of the Basket Indices on any date or dates subsequent to the Valuation Date. Under these circumstances, you may receive a lower Payment at Maturity than you would have received if you had invested in the stocks underlying the Basket Indices or contracts relating to the Basket Indices for which there is an active secondary market, the value of which could be realized on any date or dates other than, or in addition to, the Valuation Date.

Hypothetical Payment at Maturity for Each $1,000 Principal Amount Note

The following table illustrates the hypothetical payment amount on the Notes at their maturity, for a hypothetical range of performances of the Basket for Basket Returns from -100% to 100%. The table reflects the Basket Starting Level of 1,000 and the Leverage Factor of 1.11111 and assumes a Participation Rate of 121.5% (the midpoint of the range of 119% to 124%). The actual Participation Rate will be set on the Pricing Date. The hypothetical payments at maturity set forth below are for illustrative purposes only any may not represent the actual Payment at Maturity. The numbers appearing in the table below have been rounded for ease of analysis.

Hypothetical Examples of Amounts Payable at Maturity

The following examples illustrate how the total payments at maturity set forth in the table above are calculated.

Example 1: The level of the Basket increases from the Basket Starting Level of 1,000 to the Basket Ending Level of 1,200. Because the Basket Ending Level of 1,200 is above the Basket Starting Level of 1,000, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $1,243.00 per $1,000 principal amount Note calculated as follows:

$1,000 + [$1,000 × (20% × 121.5%)] = $1,243.00

TS-4

Example 2: The level of the Basket decreases from the Basket Starting Level of 1,000 to a Basket Ending Level of 950. Because the level of the Basket has declined from the Basket Starting Level of 1,000 and the percentage decline, 5%, does not exceed the Buffer Amount of 10%, the investor will receive a payment at maturity of $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount Note.

Example 3: The level of the Basket decreases from the Basket Starting Level of 1,000 to a Basket Ending Level of 700. Because the level of the Basket has declined from the Basket Starting Level of 1,000 and the percentage decline, 30%, exceeds the Buffer Amount of 10%, the investor will receive a payment at maturity of $777.78 per $1,000 principal amount Note calculated as follows:

$1,000 + [$1,000 × (-30% + 10%) × 1.11111] = $777.78

Historical Information

The following graphs set forth the daily historical closing levels of each Basket Index from October 5, 2002 through October 5, 2007. The closing level of the FTSE/Xinhua China 25^® Index on October 5, 2007 was 26,828.21. The closing level of the KOSPI 200 Index^SM on October 5, 2007 was 253.63. The closing level of the MSCI Singapore Free Index^SM on October 5, 2007 was 470.49. The closing level of the MSCI Taiwan^SM Index on October 5, 2007 was 371.98.

We obtained the various Basket Index closing levels below from Bloomberg Financial Markets, and, accordingly, make no representation or warranty as to their accuracy or completeness. The historical levels of the Basket Indices should not be taken as an indication of future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the closing level of any Basket Index on the Valuation Date. We cannot give you assurance that the performance of the Basket will result in the return of any of your initial investment.

Supplemental Plan of Distribution

We have agreed to sell to Lehman Brothers Inc., and the Lehman Brothers Inc. has agreed to purchase, all of the Notes at the price indicated on the cover of the pricing supplement that will contain the final pricing terms of the Notes.

We have 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 the pricing supplement. After the initial public offering, the public offering price may from time to time be varied by Lehman Brothers Inc.

We have granted to Lehman Brothers Inc. an option to purchase, at any time within 13 days of the original issuance of the Notes, up to $[    ] 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 Inc. would be $[    ], $[    ] and $[    ], respectively.

We or our affiliate will enter into swap agreements or related hedge transactions with one of our other affiliates or unaffiliated counterparties in connection with the sale of the Notes and Lehman Brothers Inc. and/or an affiliate will earn additional income as a result of payments pursuant to the swap or related hedge transactions.
