Underlying supplement no. 1090 To prospectus dated May 30, 2006 and prospectus supplement dated May 30, 2006 Registration Statement no. 333-134553 Dated December 10, 2007 Rule 424(b)(2)

LEHMAN BROTHERS HOLDINGS INC.

Basket Consisting of the S&P 500^® Index (SPX) and the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund (EFA)

General

• Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. may from time to time offer and sell notes linked to a basket comprised of an index and an index fund. This underlying supplement no. 1090 describes a basket (the “Basket”) comprised of the S&P 500^® Index (the “Index”) and the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund (the “Index Fund”). The index underlying the Index Fund (the “Underlying Index”) is the MSCI EAFE Index^®. In this underlying supplement, we refer to the Index and the Index Fund collectively as the “Basket Components.” The specific terms for each series of notes will be included in a product supplement. A separate term sheet or pricing supplement, as the case may be, will describe terms that apply specifically to the notes. We refer to such term sheets and pricing supplements generally as terms supplements. You should read the base prospectus, the MTN prospectus supplement, the relevant product supplement and any other related prospectus supplement, term sheet or pricing supplement, including the description of the S&P 500^® Index and the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund set forth in this underlying supplement, carefully before you invest in the notes. Any terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meaning given to them in the base prospectus, the MTN prospectus supplement or relevant product supplement or free writing prospectus. This underlying supplement may not be used to sell securities unless accompanied by the base prospectus, the MTN prospectus supplement, the relevant product supplement and all other relevant terms supplements.

Investing in notes linked to the Basket involves a number of risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page US-1 in this underlying supplement no. 1090 and “Risk Factors” in the relevant product supplement.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the notes or passed upon the accuracy or the adequacy of this underlying supplement no. 1090, the accompanying base prospectus and the MTN prospectus supplement, the relevant product supplement or the relevant terms supplements. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

RISK FACTORS

Your investment in notes linked to the Basket will involve certain risks. Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund or in any of the common stocks underlying the Basket Components. In addition, your investment in notes entails other risks not associated with an investment in conventional debt securities. You should consider carefully the following discussion of risks as well as the discussions of risk and the other information contained in this underlying supplement, the relevant terms supplements, the accompanying MTN prospectus supplement and base prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in those documents before you decide that an investment in notes linked to the Basket is suitable for you. In addition, you should consider carefully the discussion of risks set forth in the relevant product supplement before you decide that an investment in the notes is suitable for you.

The publisher of the respective indices comprising the Index and the Underlying Index may adjust either index in a way that affects its level and adversely affects the value of your note without any obligation to consider your interests.

Standard & Poor’s, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. and the publisher of the S&P 500^® Index (“S&P”), is responsible for calculating and maintaining the S&P 500^® Index. Barclays Global Investors, N.A. (“BGI”), the publisher of the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund, is responsible for calculating and maintaining the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund. We are not affiliated with S&P or BGI in any way (except for licensing arrangements discussed below in “The S&P 500^® Index” and “The iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund”) and have no way to control or predict its actions including any errors in or discontinuation of disclosure regarding their methods or policies relating to the calculation of the S&P 500^® Index and the MSCI EAFE Index^®.

Each of S&P or BGI can add, delete or substitute the stocks or contracts underlying the indices comprising the Index or Underlying Index or make other methodological changes that could change the level of either of these indices. You should realize that the changing of companies or contracts included in the Index or Underlying Index may affect the Index or Underlying Index, respectively, and in turn the Basket, as a newly added company or contract may perform significantly better or worse than the company(ies) or contract(s) it replaces. Additionally, S&P or BGI may alter, discontinue or suspend calculation or dissemination of the Index or Underlying Index. Any of these actions could affect the level of the Basket and adversely affect the value of your notes. S&P and BGI have no obligation to consider your interests in calculating or revising its Index. See “The S&P 500^® Index” and “The iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund.”

Neither we nor any of our affiliates assume any responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of the information about the Index or the Underlying Index or the publisher of such Index or Underlying Index contained in this underlying supplement or any public disclosure of information by the publisher. You, as an investor in the notes, should make your own investigation into the Index and Underlying Index and the publisher of such Index and Underlying Index.

We cannot control actions by Barclays Global Fund Advisors which may adjust the Index Fund in a way that could adversely affect the value of the notes and the amount payable on the notes.

Barclays Global Fund Advisors, which we refer to as BGFA, is the Index Fund’s investment advisor. The policies of BGFA concerning the calculation of the Index Fund’s net asset value, additions, deletions or substitutions of common stocks held by the Index Fund and the manner in which changes affecting the Underlying Index are reflected in the Index Fund could affect the market price of shares of the Index Fund and, therefore, the amount payable on notes on the stated maturity date and the trading value of the notes before maturity or automatic call, if applicable. The amount payable on your note and its value could also be affected if BGFA changes these policies, for example, by changing the manner in which it calculates the Index Fund’s net asset value, or if BGFA discontinues or suspends calculation or publication of the Index Fund’s net asset value, in which case it may

US-1

become difficult to determine the value of your note. If events such as these occur or if the closing price of one share of the Index Fund is not available on a Valuation Date, the calculation agent may determine the closing price of one share of the Index Fund on such Valuation Date and thus the amount payable on the maturity date in a manner it considers appropriate, in its sole discretion.

Neither Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. nor any of its affiliates assumes any responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of the information about the Index Fund contained in this underlying supplement or any public disclosure of information by BGFA. You, as an investor in the notes, should make your own investigation into the Index Fund.

We cannot control actions by the companies whose stocks or other equity securities are included in the Index or in the Index Fund or the Underlying Index.

We are one of the companies that are represented in the Index, but we are not affiliated with any of the other companies whose stock is included in the Index or the Index Fund comprising the Basket Components or the Underlying Index. As a result, we will have no ability to control the actions of such companies, including actions that could affect the value of the stocks underlying the Index or the Index Fund comprising the Basket Components or your notes. None of the money you pay us will go to any of the companies represented in the Basket and none of those companies will be involved in the offering of the notes in any way. Neither those companies nor we will have any obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the notes in taking any corporate actions that might affect the value of your notes.

You will have no shareholder rights in issuers of securities underlying the Index or the Index Fund or the Underlying Index.

Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing in the Index or in the Index Fund or the Underlying Index or in any of the securities included on the Basket Components. As a holder of the notes, you will not have voting rights or rights to receive dividends or other distributions or other rights that you would have as a holder of the securities included in the Index or in the Index Fund or the Underlying Index.

Many economic and market factors will impact the 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.

In addition to the level of the Basket Components 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, including:

• the volatility or expected volatility of each of the Basket Components or the stocks underlying the Index or the Underlying Index;

• the time to maturity of the notes (and any associated “time premium”);

• the dividend rate on the common stocks included in the Index or the Index Fund or Underlying Index;

• interest and yield rates in the market generally as well as in the markets of the stocks included in the Index or the Index Fund or the Underlying Index;

• economic, financial, political, geographical, agricultural, meteorological, regulatory or judicial events that affect the stocks underlying the Index or the Index Fund or the Underlying Index or markets generally and which may affect the Basket Component closing levels; and

• our creditworthiness, including actual or anticipated downgrades in our credit ratings.

There are liquidity and management risks associated with the Index Fund.

Although shares of the Index Fund are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca and a number of similar products have been traded on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (“NYSE Arca”) for varying periods of time, there is no assurance that an active trading market will continue for the shares of the Index Fund or that there will be liquidity in the trading market.

BGFA is the Index Fund’s investment advisor. The Index Fund is subject to management risk, which is the risk that BGFA’s investment strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results.

The correlation between the performance of the Index Fund and the performance of the Underlying Index may be imperfect.

The performance of the Index Fund and that of the Underlying Index will generally vary due to transaction costs, certain corporate actions and timing variances.

In addition, because the shares of the Index Fund are traded on the NYSE Arca and are subject to market supply and investor demand, the market value of one share of the Index Fund may differ from its net asset value per share; shares of the Index Fund may trade at, above or below their net asset value per share.

For the foregoing reasons, the performance of the Index Fund may not correlate perfectly with the performance of the Underlying Index over the same period. Because of this imperfect correlation, the return on the notes to the extent dependent in the return on the Index Fund, may not be the same as an investment directly in the common stocks included in the Underlying Index or the same as a debt security with a payment at maturity linked to the performance of the Underlying Index.

An investment in the notes is subject to risks associated with non-U.S. securities markets.

The stocks included in the Underlying Index have been issued by non-U.S. companies. Investments in securities indexed to the value of such non-U.S. equity securities involve risks associated with the securities markets in those countries, including risks of volatility in those markets, governmental intervention in those markets and cross shareholdings in companies in certain countries. Also, there is generally less publicly available information about companies in some of these jurisdictions than about U.S. companies that are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and generally non-U.S. companies are subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements and securities trading rules different from those applicable to U.S. reporting companies.

The prices of securities in non-U.S. jurisdictions may be affected by political, economic, financial and social factors in such markets, including changes in a country’s government, economic and fiscal policies, currency exchange laws or other foreign laws or restrictions. Moreover, the economies in such countries may differ favorably or unfavorably from the economy of the United States in such respects as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources and self sufficiency. Such countries may be subjected to different and, in some cases, more adverse economic environments.

The securities markets on which the stocks of the companies included in the Underlying Index are traded are not as large as the U.S. securities markets and have substantially less trading volume, resulting in a lack of liquidity and high price volatility relative to the U.S. securities markets. While industry concentration may be limited as described under “iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund—Industry Concentration Policy,” in some cases, there may nevertheless be a high concentration of market capitalization and trading volume in a small number of issuers representing a limited number of industries, as well as a high concentration of certain types of investors (including investment funds and

US-3

other institutional investors) in these securities markets. As a result, the securities markets on which the stocks of the companies included in the Underlying Index are traded may be subject to significantly greater risk and price volatility than the U.S. securities markets.

Because foreign exchanges may be open on days when the Index Fund is not traded, the value of the securities underlying the Index Fund may change on days when noteholders will not be able to purchase or sell the notes.

Time differences between the cities where the Underlying Index trades and New York City may create discrepancies in trading levels.

As a result of the time difference between the cities where the securities included in the Underlying Index trade and New York City (where the notes may trade), there may be discrepancies between the level of the Underlying Index and the trading prices of the notes. In addition, there may be periods when the foreign securities markets are closed for trading (for example during holidays in a foreign country), as a result of which the level of the Underlying Index remains unchanged for multiple trading days in New York City.

THE BASKET

The Basket will consist of the two Basket Components, which will be equally weighted unless otherwise specified in the relevant terms supplements. The level of the Basket will increase or decrease depending on the performance of the Basket Components.

THE S&P 500^® INDEX

We have derived all information contained in this underlying supplement no. 1090 regarding the S&P 500^® Index, including, without limitation, its make-up, method of calculation and changes in its components, from publicly available information. Such information reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by, S&P. We have not independently verified such information. We make no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of such information.

Additional information concerning the S&P 500^® Index may be obtained at the S&P website (www.spglobal.com). Information contained in the S&P web site is not incorporated by reference in, and should not be considered part of, this underlying supplement or any terms supplement.

You can obtain the level of the S&P 500^® Index at any time from the Bloomberg Financial Markets page “SPX <Index> <GO>” or from the S&P website at www.spglobal.com.

S&P 500^® Index Composition, Maintenance and Calculation

The S&P 500^® Index was developed by S&P and is calculated, maintained and published by S&P. The S&P 500^® Index is intended to provide a performance benchmark for the U.S. equity markets. The calculation of the level of the S&P 500^® Index (discussed below in further detail) is based on the relative value of the aggregate Market Value (as defined below) of the common stocks of 500^® companies (the “Component Stocks”) as of a particular time as compared to the aggregate average Market Value of the common stocks of 500 similar companies during the base period of the years 1941 through 1943. Historically, the “Market Value” of any Component Stock was calculated as the product of the market price per share and the number of the then-outstanding shares of such Component Stock. As discussed below, on March 21, 2005, S&P began to use a new methodology to calculate the Market Value of the Component Stocks and on September 16, 2005, S&P completed its transition to the new calculation methodology. The 500 companies are not the 500 largest companies listed on the NYSE and not all 500 companies are listed on such exchange. S&P chooses companies for inclusion in the S&P 500^® Index with the objective of achieving a distribution by broad industry groupings that approximates the distribution of these groupings in the common stock population of the U.S. equity market. S&P may from time to time, in its sole discretion, add companies to, or delete companies from, the S&P 500^® Index to achieve the objectives stated above. Relevant criteria employed by S&P include the viability of the particular company, the extent to which that company represents the industry group to which it is assigned, the extent to which the company’s common stock is widely-held and the Market Value and trading activity of the common stock of that company.

On March 21, 2005, S&P began to calculate the S&P 500^® Index based on a half float-adjusted formula, and on September 16, 2005, the S&P 500^® Index became fully float-adjusted. S&P’s criteria for selecting stocks for the S&P 500^® Index will not be changed by the shift to float adjustment. However, the adjustment affects each company’s weight in the S&P 500^® Index (i.e., its Market Value).

Under float adjustment, the share counts used in calculating the S&P 500^® Index reflect only those shares that are available to investors, not all of a company’s outstanding shares. S&P defines three groups of shareholders whose holdings are subject to float adjustment:

• holdings by other publicly traded corporations, venture capital firms, private equity firms, strategic partners, or leveraged buyout groups;

• holdings by government entities, including all levels of government in the United States or foreign countries; and

• holdings by current or former officers and directors of the company, founders of the company, or family trusts of officers, directors, or founders, as well as holdings of trusts, foundations, pension funds, employee stock ownership plans, or other investment vehicles associated with and controlled by the company.

US-6

However, treasury stock, stock options, restricted shares, equity participation units, warrants, preferred stock, convertible stock, and rights are not part of the float. In cases where holdings in a group exceed 10% of the outstanding shares of a company, the holdings of that group will be excluded from the float-adjusted count of shares to be used in the S&P 500^® Index calculation. Mutual funds, investment advisory firms, pension funds, or foundations not associated with the company and investment funds in insurance companies, shares of a United States company traded in Canada as “exchangeable shares,” shares that trust beneficiaries may buy or sell without difficulty or significant additional expense beyond typical brokerage fees, and, if a company has multiple classes of stock outstanding, shares in an unlisted or non-traded class if such shares are convertible by shareholders without undue delay and cost, are also part of the float.

For each stock, an investable weight factor (“IWF”) is calculated by dividing the available float shares, defined as the total shares outstanding less shares held in one or more of the three groups listed above where the group holdings exceed 10% of the outstanding shares, by the total shares outstanding. (On March 21, 2005, the S&P 500^® Index moved halfway to float adjustment, meaning that if a stock has an IWF of 0.80, the IWF used to calculate the S&P 500^® Index between March 21, 2005 and September 16, 2005 was 0.90. On September 16, 2005, S&P began to calculate the S&P 500^® Index on a fully float-adjusted basis, meaning that if a stock has an IWF of 0.80, the IWF used to calculate the S&P 500^® Index on and after September 16, 2005 is 0.80.) The float-adjusted S&P 500^® Index is calculated by dividing the sum of the IWF multiplied by both the price and the total shares outstanding for each stock by the index divisor. For companies with multiple classes of stock, S&P calculates the weighted average IWF for each stock using the proportion of the total company market capitalization of each share class as weights.

As of the date of this underlying supplement, the S&P 500^® Index is calculated using a base-weighted aggregate methodology: the level of the S&P 500^® Index reflects the total Market Value of all 500 Component Stocks relative to the S&P 500^® Index’s base period of 1941-43 (the “Base Period”).

An indexed number is used to represent the results of this calculation in order to make the value easier to work with and track over time.

The actual total Market Value of the Component Stocks during the Base Period has been set equal to an indexed value of 10. This is often indicated by the notation 1941-43=10. In practice, the daily calculation of the S&P 500^® Index is computed by dividing the total Market Value of the Component Stocks by a number called the Index Divisor. By itself, the Index Divisor is an arbitrary number. However, in the context of the calculation of the S&P 500^® Index, it is the only link to the original Base Period level of the S&P 500^® Index. The Index Divisor keeps the S&P 500^® Index comparable over time and is the manipulation point for all adjustments to the S&P 500^® Index (“Index Maintenance”).

Index Maintenance includes monitoring and completing the adjustments for company additions and deletions, share changes, stock splits, stock dividends, and stock price adjustments due to company restructurings or spinoffs.

To prevent the level of the S&P 500^® Index from changing due to corporate actions, all corporate actions which affect the total Market Value of the S&P 500^® Index require an Index Divisor adjustment. By adjusting the Index Divisor for the change in total Market Value, the level of the S&P 500^® Index remains constant. This helps maintain the level of the S&P 500^® Index as an accurate barometer of stock market performance and ensures that the movement of the S&P 500^® Index does not reflect the corporate actions of individual companies in the S&P 500^® Index. All Index Divisor adjustments are made after the close of trading and after the calculation of the S&P 500^® Index closing level.

US-7

The table below summarizes the types of Index maintenance adjustments and indicates whether or not an Index Divisor adjustment is required.

Type of Corporate Action	Comments	Divisor Adjustment
Company added/ deleted	Net change in market value determines divisor adjustment.	Yes
Change in shares outstanding	Any combination of secondary issuance, share repurchase or buy back – share counts revised to reflect change.	Yes
Stock split	Share count revised to reflect new count. Divisor adjustment is not required since the share count and price changes are offsetting.	No
Spin-off	If spun-off company is not being added to the index, the divisor adjustment reflects the decline in index market value (i.e., the value of the spun-off unit).	Yes
Spin-off	Spun-off company added to the index, no company removed from the index.	No
Spin-off	Spun-off company added to the index, another company removed to keep number of names fixed. Divisor adjustment reflects deletion.	Yes
Change in IWF due to a corporate action or a purchase or sale by an inside holder	Increasing (decreasing) the IWF increases (decreases) the total market value of the index. The divisor change reflects the change in market value caused by the change to an IWF.	Yes
Special Dividend	When a company pays a special dividend the share price is assumed to drop by the amount of the dividend; the divisor adjustment reflects this drop in index market value.	Yes
Rights offering	Each shareholder receives the right to buy a proportional number of additional shares at a set (often discounted) price. The calculation assumes that the offering is fully subscribed. Divisor adjustment reflects increase in market cap measured as the shares issued multiplied by the price paid.	Yes

Stock splits and stock dividends do not affect the Index Divisor of the S&P 500^® Index, because following a split or dividend, both the stock price and number of shares outstanding are adjusted by S&P so that there is no change in the Market Value of the Component Stock. All stock split and dividend adjustments are made after the close of trading on the day before the ex-date.

US-8

Each of the corporate events exemplified in the table requiring an adjustment to the Index Divisor has the effect of altering the Market Value of the Component Stock and consequently of altering the aggregate Market Value of the Component Stocks (the “Post-Event Market Value”). In order that the level of the S&P 500^® Index not be affected by the altered Market Value (whether increase or decrease) of the affected Component Stock, a new Index Divisor (“New Divisor”) is derived as follows, where “Old Divisor” is the Index Divisor before the corporate event and “Pre-Event Market Value” is the market value of the component stocks before the corporate event:

New Divis or = Old
Divisor x Post-Event Market Value Pre-Event Market Value

Changes in a company’s shares outstanding of 5% or more due to mergers, acquisitions, public offerings, private placements, tender offers, Dutch auctions or exchange offers are made as soon as reasonably possible. All other changes of 5% or more (due to, for example, company stock repurchases, redemptions, exercise of options, warrants, subscription rights, conversion of preferred stock, notes, debt, equity participation units or other recapitalizations) are made weekly and are announced on Tuesdays for implementation after the close of trading on Wednesday. Changes of less than 5% are accumulated and made quarterly on the third Friday of March, June, September and December, and are usually announced two days prior.

IWFs are reviewed annually based on the most recently available data filed with various regulators and exchanges. Revised IWFs are applied on the third Friday of September. Changes in IWFs resulting from corporate actions which exceed 10 percentage points will be implemented as soon as possible; changes of less than 10 percentage points are implemented at the next annual review.

Discontinuation of the S&P 500^® Index; Alteration of Method of Calculation

S&P has no obligation to continue to publish the S&P 500^® Index, and may discontinue publication of the S&P 500^® Index at any time in its sole discretion. If S&P discontinues publication of the S&P 500^® Index and S&P or another entity publishes a successor or substitute index that the calculation agent determines, in its sole discretion, to be comparable to the discontinued Index (such index being referred to herein as a “S&P 500^® Successor Index”), then any Index closing level will be determined by reference to the level of such S&P 500^® Successor Index at the close of trading on the NYSE, the AMEX, the NASDAQ National Market or the relevant exchange or market for the S&P 500^® Successor Index on each relevant Basket Valuation Date, Observation Date, Averaging Date, Review Date or other relevant date or dates as set forth in the relevant terms supplement.

Upon any selection by the calculation agent of an S&P 500^® Successor Index, the calculation agent will cause written notice thereof to be promptly furnished to the trustee, to us and to the holders of the notes.

If S&P discontinues publication of the S&P 500^® Index prior to, and such discontinuation is continuing on, a Basket Valuation Date, Observation Date, Averaging Date, Review Date or other relevant date as set forth in the relevant terms supplement, and the calculation agent determines, in its sole discretion, that no S&P 500^® Successor Index is available at such time, or the calculation agent has previously selected an S&P 500^® Successor Index and publication of such S&P 500^® Successor Index is discontinued prior to, and such discontinuation is continuing on, such Basket Valuation Date, Observation Date, Averaging Date, Review Date or other relevant date, or if S&P (or the publisher of any S&P 500^® Successor Index) fails to calculate and publish a closing level for the S&P 500^® Index (or any S&P 500^® Successor Index) on any date when it would ordinarily do so in accordance with its customary practice, then the calculation agent will determine the Index closing level for such date. The

US-9

Index closing level will be computed by the calculation agent in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating the S&P 500^® Index or S&P 500^® Successor Index, as applicable, last in effect prior to such discontinuation, or failure to calculate or publish a closing level for the index, using the closing price (or, if trading in the relevant securities has been materially suspended or materially limited, its good faith estimate of the closing price that would have prevailed but for such suspension or limitation) at the close of the principal trading session on such date of each security most recently composing the S&P 500^® Index or S&P 500^® Successor Index, as applicable. Notwithstanding these alternative arrangements, discontinuation of the publication or failure to calculate or publish the closing level of the S&P 500^® Index may adversely affect the value of the notes.

As used herein, “closing price” of a security, on any particular day, means the last reported sales price for that security on the relevant exchange at the scheduled weekday closing time of the regular trading session of the relevant exchange. If, however, the security is not listed or traded on a bulletin board, then the closing price of the security will be determined using the average execution price per share that an affiliate of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. pays or receives upon the purchase or sale of the security used to hedge Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.’s obligations under the notes. The “relevant exchange” for any security (or any combination thereof then underlying the S&P 500^® Index or any Successor Index) means the primary exchange, quotation system (which includes bulletin board services) or other market of trading for such security.

If at any time the method of calculating the S&P 500^® Index or an S&P 500^® Successor Index, or the level thereof, is changed in a material respect, or if the S&P 500^® Index or an S&P 500^® Successor Index is in any other way modified so that the S&P 500^® Index or such S&P 500^® Successor Index does not, in the opinion of the calculation agent, fairly represent the level of the S&P 500^® Index or such S&P 500^® Successor Index had such changes or modifications not been made, then the calculation agent will, at the close of business in New York City on each date on which the S&P 500^® Index closing level is to be determined, make such calculations and adjustments as, in the good faith judgment of the calculation agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a level of a stock index comparable to the S&P 500^® Index or such S&P 500^® Successor Index, as the case may be, as if such changes or modifications had not been made, and the calculation agent will calculate the Index closing level with reference to the S&P 500^® Index or such S&P 500^® Successor Index, as adjusted. Accordingly, if the method of calculating the S&P 500^® Index or a S&P 500^® Successor Index is modified so that the level of the S&P 500^® Index or such S&P 500^® Successor Index is a fraction of what it would have been if there had been no such modification (e.g., due to a split in the S&P 500^® Index), then the calculation agent will adjust its calculation of the S&P 500^® Index or such S&P 500^® Successor Index in order to arrive at a level of the S&P 500^® Index or such S&P 500^® Successor Index as if there had been no such modification (e.g., as if such split had not occurred).

THE iSHARES^® MSCI EAFE INDEX FUND

We have derived all information contained in this underlying supplement no. 1090 regarding the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund, including, without limitation, its make-up, method of calculation and changes in its components, from publicly available information. Such information reflects the polices of, and is subject to change by BGFA. Additionally, the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the MSCI EAFE Index^® which reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by BGFA. We have not independently verified such information. We make no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of such information.

Additional information concerning the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund may be obtained at the BGI website (www.iShares.com). Additional information concerning the MSCI EAFE Index may be obtained at the MSCI website (www.mscibarra.com.). Information contained in the BGI website or the MSCI website is not incorporated by reference in, and should not be considered part of, this underlying supplement or any terms supplement.

You can obtain the level of the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund at any time from the Bloomberg Financial Markets page “EFA <Index> <GO>” or from the iShares website at www.iShares.com.

Investment Objective and Strategy

The iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of certain developed equity markets in the Europe, Australasia (Australia and Asia) and Far East, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index^®. The Underlying Index was developed by MSCI as an equity benchmark for its international stock performance.

As of October 31, 2007 the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund’s three largest equity securities were BP Public Limited Company, HBSC Holdings Public Limited Company and Vodafone Group Public Limited Company. As of December 6, 2007 Its three largest sectors were financials, technology and consumer discretionary.

The iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund uses a representative sampling strategy (as described below under “Representative Sampling”) to attempt to track the Underlying Index. The iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund will generally invest at least 90% of its assets in the securities of the Underlying Index and ADRs or other depositary receipts based on securities of the Underlying Index. The iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund may invest its other assets in futures contracts, other types of options and swaps related to the Underlying Index, as well as cash and cash equivalents, including share of money market funds affiliated with BGFA.

Representative Sampling

The iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund pursues a “representative sampling” strategy in attempting to track the performance of the Underlying Index, and generally does not hold all of the equity securities included in the Underlying Index. The iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Underlying Index, which BGFA believes to have a similar investment profile as the Underlying Index. Securities selected have aggregate investment characteristics (based on market capitalization and industry weightings), fundamental characteristics (such as return variability, earnings valuation and yield) and liquidity measures similar to those of the Underlying Index.

Correlation

The Underlying Index is a theoretical financial calculation, while the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund is an actual investment portfolio. The performance of the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund and the Underlying Index will vary somewhat due to transaction costs, market impact, corporate actions

US-12

(such as mergers and spin-offs) and timing variances and differences between a Fund’s portfolio and the Underlying Index resulting from legal restrictions (such as diversification requirements that apply to the Fund but not to the Underlying Index) or representative sampling. BGFA expects that, over time, the correlation between a Fund’s performance and that of its Underlying Index, before fees and expenses, will be 95% or better. A figure of 100% would indicate perfect correlation. Any correlation of less than 100% is called “tracking error.” The iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund, using a representative sampling strategy, can be expected to have a greater tracking error than a fund using replication strategy. Replication is a strategy in which a fund invests in substantially all of the securities in its underlying index in approximately the same proportions as in the underlying index.

Industry Concentration Policy

The iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund will concentrate its investments (i.e., hold 25% or more of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries only to approximately the same extent that its Underlying Index is so concentrated. For purposes of this limitation, securities of the U.S. government (including its agencies and instrumentalities), repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. government securities, and securities of state or municipal governments and their political subdivisions are not considered to be issued by members of any industry.

Holdings Information

As of October 31, 2007, 99.63% of the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund’s holdings consisted of equity securities, 0.02% consisted of cash and 0.35% was in other assets, including dividends booked but not yet received.

MSCI EAFE Index^® Composition and Calculation

The MSCI EAFE Index^® (“MXEA”) is published by Morgan Stanley Capital International (“MSCI”) and is intended to measure the performance of certain developed equity markets. The Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index with a base date of December 31, 1969 and an initial value of 100. The Index is calculated daily in U.S. dollars and published in real time every 60 seconds during market trading hours. The Index is published by Bloomberg under the index symbol “MXEA”.

As of December 6, 2007 the Index consisted of the following 21 countries: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. The five largest country weights were: the United Kingdom (22.21%), Japan (20.45%), France (10.62%), Germany (9.07%) and Switzerland (6.75%) and the five largest sector weights were: Financials (27.36%), Industrials (11.99%), Consumer Discretionary (10.75%), Materials (9.83%) and Consumer Staples (8.43%).

The Index is part of the MSCI Equity Indices series. MSCI aims to include in its indices 85% of the free float-adjusted market capitalization in each industry sector, within each country included in an index.

MSCI recently announced changes to the methodology used in its MSCI International Equity Indices. The current MSCI Standard and MSCI Small Cap Indices, along with the other MSCI equity indices based on them, are transitioning to the Global Investable Market Indices methodology described below. The first phase of the transition of the MSCI Standard Indices, which includes the MSCI EAFE Index, was completed on November 30, 2007. At the end of the transition period (May 30, 2008), the current MSCI Standard Indices will be composed of the MSCI Large Cap and Mid Cap Indices. The current MSCI Small Cap Index will transition to the MSCI Small Cap Index resulting from the new methodology. Together, the relevant MSCI Large Cap, Mid Cap and Small Cap Indices will make up the MSCI Investable Market Index for each country, composite, sector, and style index that MSCI offers.

Constructing the MSCI Global Investable Market Indices

MSCI undertakes an index construction process, which involves: (i) defining the Equity Universe; (ii) determining the Market Investable Equity Universe for each market; (iii) determining market capitalization size segments for each market; (iv) applying Index Continuity Rules for the MSCI Standard Index; (v) creating style segments within each size segment within each market; and (vi) classifying securities under the Global Industry Classification Standard (the “GICS”).

Defining the Equity Universe

(i) Identifying Eligible Equity Securities: The Equity Universe initially looks at securities listed in any of the countries in the MSCI Global Index Series, which will be classified as either Developed Markets (“DM”) or Emerging Markets (“EM”). All listed equity securities, or listed securities that exhibit characteristics of equity securities, except mutual funds, ETFs, equity derivatives, limited partnerships, and most investment trusts, are eligible for inclusion in the Equity Universe. Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) in some countries and certain income trusts in Canada are also eligible for inclusion.

(ii) Country Classification of Eligible Securities: Each company and its securities (i.e., share classes) are classified in one and only one country, which allows for a distinctive sorting of each company by its respective country.

Determining the Market Investable Equity Universes

A Market Investable Equity Universe for a market is derived by applying investability screens to individual companies and securities in the Equity Universe that are classified in that market. A market

US-14

is equivalent to a single country, except in DM Europe, where all DM countries in Europe are aggregated into a single market for index construction purposes. Subsequently, individual DM Europe country indices within the MSCI Europe Index are derived from the constituents of the MSCI Europe Index under the Global Investable Market Indices methodology.

The investability screens used to determine the Investable Equity Universe in each market are as follows:

(i) Equity Universe Minimum Size Requirement: This investability screen is applied at the company level. In order to be included in a Market Investable Equity Universe, a company must have the required minimum full market capitalization.

(ii) Equity Universe Minimum Float-Adjusted Market Capitalization Requirement: This investability screen is applied at the individual security level. To be eligible for inclusion in a Market Investable Equity Universe, a security must have a free float-adjusted market capitalization equal to or higher than 50% of the Equity Universe Minimum Size Requirement.

(iii) DM and EM Minimum Liquidity Requirement: This investability screen is applied at the individual security level. To be eligible for inclusion in a Market Investable Equity Universe, a security must have adequate liquidity. The Annualized Traded Value Ratio (“ATVR”), a measure that offers the advantage of screening out extreme daily trading volumes and taking into account the free float-adjusted market capitalization size of securities, is used to measure liquidity. In the calculation of the ATVR, the trading volumes in depository receipts associated with that security, such as ADRs or GDRs, are also considered. A minimum liquidity level of 20% ATVR is required for inclusion of a security in a Market Investable Equity Universe of a Developed Market, and a minimum liquidity level of 15% ATVR is required for inclusion of a security in a Market Investable Equity Universe of an Emerging Market.

(iv) Global Minimum Foreign Inclusion Factor Requirement: This investability screen is applied at the individual security level. To be eligible for inclusion in a Market Investable Equity Universe, a security’s Foreign Inclusion Factor (“FIF”) must reach a certain threshold. The FIF of a security is defined as the proportion of shares outstanding that is available for purchase in the public equity markets by international investors. This proportion accounts for the available free float of and/or the foreign ownership limits applicable to a specific security (or company). In general, a security must have an FIF equal to or larger than 0.15 to be eligible for inclusion in a Market Investable Equity Universe.

(v) Minimum Length of Trading Requirement: This investability screen is applied at the individual security level. For an initial public offering (“IPO”) to be eligible for inclusion in a Market Investable Equity Universe, the new issue must have started trading at least four months before the implementation of the initial construction of the index or at least three months before the implementation of a Semi-Annual Index Review. This requirement is applicable to small new issues in all markets. Large IPOs are not subject to the Minimum Length of Trading Requirement and may be included in a Market Investable Equity Universe and the Standard Index outside of a Quarterly or Semi-Annual Index Review.

Defining Market Capitalization Size Segments for Each Market

Once a Market Investable Equity Universe is defined, it is segmented into the following size-based indices:

• Investable Market Index (Large + Mid + Small)

• Standard Index (Large + Mid)

• Large Cap Index

• Mid Cap Index

US-15

• Small Cap Index

Creating the Size Segment Indices in each market involves the following steps: (i) defining the Market Coverage Target Range for each size segment; (ii) determining the Global Minimum Size Range for each size segment; (iii) determining the Market Size-Segment Cutoffs and associated Segment Number of Companies; (iv) assigning companies to the size segments; and (v) applying final size-segment investability requirements.

Index Continuity Rules for the Standard Indices

In order to achieve index continuity, as well as provide some basic level of diversification within a market index, notwithstanding the effect of other index construction rules contained herein, a minimum number of five constituents will be maintained for a DM Standard Index and a minimum number of three constituents will be maintained for an EM Standard Index.

Creating Style Indices within Each Size Segment

All securities in the investable equity universe are classified into Value or Growth segments using the MSCI Global Value and Growth methodology.

Classifying Securities under the Global Industry Classification Standard

All securities in the Global Investable Equity Universe are assigned to the industry that best describes their business activities. To this end, MSCI has designed, in conjunction with Standard & Poor’s, the Global Industry Classification Standard. Under the GICS, each company is assigned uniquely to one sub-industry according to its principal business activity. Therefore, a company can belong to only one industry grouping at each of the four levels of the GICS.

MSCI EAFE Index^® Maintenance

The MSCI Global Investable Market Indices are maintained with the objective of reflecting the evolution of the underlying equity markets and segments on a timely basis, while seeking to achieve index continuity, continuous investability of constituents and replicability of the indices, and index stability and low index turnover.

In particular, index maintenance involves:

(i) Semi-Annual Index Reviews (“SAIRs”) in May and November of the Size Segment and Global Value and Growth Indices which include:

• Updating the indices on the basis of a fully refreshed Equity Universe.

• Taking buffer rules into consideration for migration of securities across size and style segments.

• Updating FIFs and Number of Shares (“NOS”).

(ii) Quarterly Index Reviews (“QIRs”) in February and August of the Size Segment Indices aimed at:

• Including significant new eligible securities (such as IPOs that were not eligible for earlier inclusion) in the index.

• Allowing for significant moves of companies within the Size Segment Indices, using wider buffers than in the SAIR.

• Reflecting the impact of significant market events on FIFs and updating NOS.

US-16

(iii) Ongoing event-related changes. Changes of this type are generally implemented in the indices as they occur. Significantly large IPOs are included in the indices after the close of the company’s tenth day of trading.

Transition

MSCI will transition the current MSCI Standard Index, the Small Cap Index and all indices derived from the MSCI Standard Index to the Global Investable Market Indices methodology described above.

All indices that are constructed with the Standard Indices as their basis, such as the GDP-weighted indices, 10/40 Indices and other custom indices, High Dividend Yield Indices, the MSCI Global Value and Growth Indices, etc., will continue to be derived from the Standard Indices throughout the transition.

The second phase of the transition of the MSCI Standard and the MSCI Small Cap Indices to the MSCI Global Investable Market Indices methodology will take place on May 30, 2008 (the first phase having been completed on November 30, 2007). The final additions and deletions of constituents for the second phase will be announced at least four weeks in advance of their implementation in the Standard and Small Cap Indices. All indices derived from the MSCI Standard Indices will follow the two-phase transition, except for the MSCI Euro and Pan Euro Indices which were transitioned in one phase on November 30, 2007. The transition will be synchronized for all markets and composites.

During the transition period, MSCI will be producing the MSCI Provisional Standard and Provisional Small Cap Indices to assist investors in understanding the changes that would occur if the Global Investable Market Indices methodology were immediately implemented in the current MSCI Standard and Small Cap Indices. The Provisional Indices also provide increased flexibility to current investors who wish to transition to the Global Investable Market Indices methodology on their own schedule.

The Provisional Standard and Provisional Small Cap Indices and the new Size Segment and Style Indices that will be created based on this methodology are official MSCI indices and, as such, can be used for a variety of purposes, including as the basis for new investment mandates and for investment vehicles such as passive mutual funds, exchange traded funds and listed and over-the-counter derivative contracts.

Reflecting Constituent Changes in the Standard Indices at the Transition Points

In the first phase of the transition, which was completed on November 30, 2007:

• After rebalancing the Provisional Standard Indices as per the SAIR, they were compared with the relevant Standard Indices.

• All companies that were in the Provisional Standard Index but not in the corresponding Standard Index were added to the Standard Index at half of their free float-adjusted market capitalization, and all companies that were not in the Provisional Standard Index but were in the corresponding Standard Index were retained in the Standard Index but at only half of their free float-adjusted market capitalization.

In the second and final phase in May 2008:

• The Provisional Standard Indices will be rebalanced.

• Any and all differences between the rebalanced Provisional Standard Index and the Standard Index will be fully implemented in the Standard Indices.

US-17

The transition of the Small Cap Indices will be synchronized with the transition of the Standard Indices, following the same timeline and approach.

Discontinuation of the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund; Alternate Calculation of Price and Closing Price

If the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund (or a successor index fund (as defined herein)) is de-listed from NYSE Arca (or any other relevant exchange), liquidated or otherwise terminated, the calculation agent will substitute an exchange traded fund that the calculation agent determines, in its sole discretion, is comparable to the discontinued Index Fund (or such successor index fund) (such successor fund being referred to herein as an “successor index fund”). If the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund (or a successor index fund) is de-listed, liquidated or otherwise terminated and the calculation agent determines that no successor index fund is available, then the calculation agent will, in its sole discretion, calculate the appropriate closing price of the shares of the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund by a computation methodology that the calculation agent determines will as closely as reasonably possible replicate the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund. If a successor index fund is selected or the calculation agent calculates a price or closing price, as applicable, by a computation methodology that the calculation agent determines will as closely as reasonably possible replicate the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund, that successor index fund or closing price will be substituted for the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund (or such successor index fund) for all purposes of the notes.

Upon any selection by the calculation agent of a successor index fund, the calculation agent will cause written notice thereof to be promptly furnished to the trustee, to us and to the holders of the notes.

If at any time, the Underlying Index or the underlying index related to a successor index fund is changed in a material respect, or the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund or a successor index fund in any other way is modified so that it does not, in the opinion of the calculation agent, fairly represent the price of the shares of the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund or such successor index fund had those changes or modifications not been made, then the calculation agent will, at the close of business in New York City on each date on which the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund Final Share Price is to be determined, make such calculations and adjustments as, in the good faith judgment of the calculation agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a closing price of an exchange traded fund comparable to the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund (or such successor index fund) as if those changes or modifications had not been made, and calculate the closing price with reference to the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund (or such successor index fund), as adjusted. The calculation agent also may determine that no adjustment is required by the modification of the method of calculation.

The calculation agent will be solely responsible for the method of calculating the closing price of the shares of the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund (or any successor index fund) and of any related determinations and calculations, and its determinations and calculations with respect thereto will be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

The calculation agent will provide information as to the method of calculating the closing price of the shares of the iShares^® MSCI EAFE Index Fund upon written request by any investor in the notes.
