LEHMAN BROTHERS HOLDINGS INC.

$1,101,000

15.45% Reverse Exchangeable Notes Linked to the Common Stock of Cummins Inc. (CMI)

Summary Description

The notes are designed for investors who seek a higher coupon rate than the current dividend yield on the Reference Stock or than the yield that we believe would be payable on a conventional debt security with the same maturity issued by us or an issuer with a comparable credit rating. Investors should be willing to forgo the potential to participate in appreciation in the Reference Stock, be willing to accept the risks of owning equities in general and the Reference Stock in particular, and be willing to lose some or all of their principal.

The notes do not guarantee any return of principal at maturity. Instead, the payment at maturity will be based on the Final Share Price of the Reference Stock and whether the closing price of the Reference Stock is below the Trigger Price during the Monitoring Period, as described below.

 

 

 

Issuer:    Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (A+/A1/AA-)
Issue Size:    $1,101,000
Pricing Date:    February 26, 2008
Settlement Date:    February 29, 2008
Observation Date:    May 23, 2008
Maturity Date:    May 29, 2008
Term:    3 months
Reference Stock:    The common stock of Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI). See “The Reference Stock.” The Reference Stock issuer may be changed in certain circumstances. See “Description of Notes—Anti-dilution Adjustments—Reorganization Events” in the accompanying product supplement no. 150-I for further information.
Coupon Rate:    15.45% per year paid monthly and calculated on a 30/360 basis.
Coupon Payment Date:    Monthly, on March 31, 2008, April 30, 2008 and the Maturity Date. If any Coupon Payment Date falls on a day that is not a business day, then any payment required to be made on such Coupon Payment Date will instead be made on the first preceding day that is a business day; provided, however, that the final coupon payment will be made with the Payment at Maturity.
Payment at Maturity:    The payment at maturity, in addition to accrued and unpaid coupon payments, is based on the performance of the Reference Stock. You will receive $1,000 for each $1,000 principal amount note plus any accrued and unpaid coupon payments at maturity unless:
  

(i)     the Final Share Price is less than the Initial Share Price; and

  

(ii)    a Trigger Event has occurred.

   If the conditions described in (i) and (ii) are both satisfied, at maturity you will receive, instead of the principal amount of your notes, the number of shares of the Reference Stock equal to the Physical Delivery Amount (or, at our election, the Cash Value thereof), plus any accrued and unpaid coupon payments. If we deliver shares of the Reference Stock, fractional shares will be paid in cash. The market value of the Physical Delivery Amount (or, at our election, the Cash Value thereof) will be less than the principal amount of your notes and may be zero. Accordingly, you may lose some or all of your principal if you invest in the notes.
Trigger Event:    A Trigger Event occurs if, on any trading day during the Monitoring Period, the closing price of the Reference Stock is below the Trigger Price.
Monitoring Period:    The period from, and including, the Pricing Date to, and including, the Observation Date.
Initial Share Price:    The closing price of the Reference Stock on the Pricing Date, which was $53.40, divided by the Stock Adjustment Factor.
Trigger Price:    A dollar amount that represents 70% of the Initial Share Price. The Trigger Price is initially $37.380.
Physical Delivery Amount:    The number of shares of the Reference Stock, per $1,000 principal amount of the notes, equal to $1,000 divided by the Initial Share Price.


Cash Value:    The amount in cash equal to the product of (1) $1,000 divided by the Initial Share Price and (2) the Final Share Price.
Final Share Price:    The closing price of the Reference Stock on the Observation Date.
Stock Adjustment Factor:    1.0 on the Pricing Date, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. See “Description of Notes—Anti-dilution Adjustments” in the accompanying product supplement no. 150-I for further information about these adjustments.
CUSIP:    5249086L9
ISIN:    US5249086L99

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 pricing supplement 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. 150-I (which supplements the description of the general terms of the notes) . Buyers should rely upon the base prospectus, the MTN prospectus supplement, product supplement no. 150-I, this pricing supplement and any other relevant terms supplement for complete details. This pricing supplement, 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 pricing supplement shall supersede product supplement no. 150-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. 150-I, 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):

Selected Purchase Considerations

 

   

The Notes Offer a Higher Coupon Rate Than the Current Dividend Yield on the Reference Stock or the Yield on Conventional Debt Securities of Comparable Maturity Issued by Us or an Issuer with a Comparable Credit Rating: The notes will pay coupon payments at 15.45% per year, which we believe is higher than the current dividend yield on the Reference Stock or the yield that we believe would be payable on conventional debt securities of comparable maturity issued by us or an issuer with a comparable credit rating. Because the notes are our senior unsecured obligations, any coupon payment or any other payment at maturity is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.

 

   

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences: There is no statutory, judicial or administrative authority that directly addresses the proper U.S. federal income tax characterization and treatment of securities similar to the notes. No ruling is being sought from the Internal Revenue Service as to the proper U.S. federal income tax characterization and treatment of the notes. You should also be aware that our special tax counsel, Sidley Austin LLP, has not provided us with an opinion regarding the proper characterization of the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, the proper U.S. federal income tax characterization and treatment of the notes is uncertain. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. intends to treat, and by purchasing a note, for all tax purposes, you agree to treat, a note as a financial contract, rather than as a debt instrument.

Recent Tax Law Developments. On December 7, 2007, the Internal Revenue Service released a Notice indicating that the Internal Revenue Service and the Treasury Department are considering and seeking comments as to whether holders of instruments commonly referred to as prepaid forward contracts and similar instruments should be required to accrue income on a current basis over the term of the instruments, regardless of whether any payments are made prior to their maturity. In addition, the Notice provides that the Internal Revenue Service and the Treasury Department are considering related issues, including, among other things, whether gain or loss from such instruments should be treated as ordinary or capital, whether foreign holders of such instruments should be subject to withholding tax, whether the tax treatment of such instruments should vary depending upon the nature of the underlying asset, and whether such instruments should be subject to the special “constructive ownership rules” contained in Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. In addition, the Notice provided that the government is considering whether arrangements similar to prepaid forward contracts (which could possibly include instruments having terms similar to the notes) should be accorded tax treatment similar to prepaid forward contracts. It is not possible to predict what changes, if any, will be adopted, or when they will take effect. Any such changes could affect the amount, timing and character of income, gain or loss in respect of the notes, possibly with retroactive effect. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors concerning the impact of the Notice on their investment in the notes. Subject to future developments with respect to the foregoing, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. intends to continue to treat the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes in accordance with the treatment described in the accompanying product supplement no. 150-I under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences.”

See “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement no. 150-I.

 

PS-1


Selected Risk Factors

An investment in the notes involves significant risks. Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the Reference Stock. These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” section of the accompanying product supplement no. 150-I dated February 27, 2008. 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 Significant Loss: The notes do not guarantee any return of principal. The payment at maturity will be based on the Final Share Price and whether the closing price of the Reference Stock is below the Trigger Price on any trading day during the Monitoring Period. Under certain circumstances, you will receive at maturity a predetermined number of shares of the Reference Stock (or, at our election, the Cash Value thereof). The market value of those shares of the Reference Stock (or, at our election, the Cash Value thereof) will be less than the principal amount of each note and may be zero. In addition, on the Pricing Date, stock prices generally in the market and stock prices for the Reference Stock in particular may be significantly higher than historical averages, which could increase the likelihood of subsequent declines in stock prices and of a Trigger Event with respect to the Reference Stock. Accordingly, you could lose up to the entire principal amount of your notes.

 

   

The Notes Will Not Pay More Than the Principal Amount at Maturity, Plus Accrued and Unpaid Coupons, and Principal Protection is Under Limited Circumstances: Your return of principal at maturity is protected so long as a Trigger Event does not occur or if the Final Share Price is not below the Initial Share Price. However, if the Final Share Price is below the Initial Share Price and a Trigger Event has occurred, you could lose the entire principal amount of your notes.

 

   

Your Return on the Notes is Limited to the Principal Amount Plus Accrued Coupon Payments, Regardless of Any Appreciation in the Reference Stock: Unless (i) the Final Share Price is less than the Initial Share Price and (ii) on any trading day during the Monitoring Period, the closing price of the Reference Stock is below the Trigger Price, for each $1,000 principal amount note, you will receive $1,000 at maturity plus accrued and unpaid coupon payments, regardless of any appreciation in the value of the Reference Stock, which may be significant. Accordingly, the return on the notes may be significantly less than the return on a direct investment in the Reference Stock during the term of the notes.

 

PS-2


   

No Ownership Rights in the Reference Stock: As a holder of the notes, you will not have any ownership interest or rights in the Reference Stock, such as voting rights, dividend payments or other distributions. In addition, the issuer of the Reference Stock will not have any obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the notes in taking any corporate action that might affect the value of the Reference Stock and the notes.

 

   

No Affiliation With the Reference Stock Issuer: We are not affiliated with the issuer of the Reference Stock. We assume no responsibility for, and make no representation regarding, the adequacy or completeness of the information about the Reference Stock contained in this pricing supplement or in the accompanying product supplement no. 150-I. You should make your own investigation into the Reference Stock and the Reference Stock issuer. We are not responsible for the Reference Stock issuer’s public disclosure of information, whether contained in SEC filings or otherwise.

 

   

The Reference Stock May Change Following Certain Corporate Events: Following certain corporate events relating to the issuer of the Reference Stock, such as a take over or a going private transaction, the calculation agent will have the option to replace the Reference Stock with the common stock of a company with the same Standard Industrial Classification Code as the issuer of the Reference Stock. We describe the specific corporate events that can lead to these adjustments and the procedures for selecting a Successor Reference Stock under “Description of Notes—Anti-dilution Adjustments—Reorganization Events” in the accompanying product supplement no. 150-I.

 

   

Our Affiliates’ Compensation May Serve as an Incentive to Sell You these Notes: 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, may derive compensation from the distribution of the notes and such compensation may serve as an incentive to sell these notes instead of other investments.

 

   

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 pricing supplement 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 maturity 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.

 

   

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.

 

   

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.

 

PS-3


   

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 Reference Stock to which the Notes are Linked 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 Reference Stock.

 

   

Many Economic and Market Factors Will Influence the Value of the Notes: In addition to the value of the Reference Stock and interest rates on any trading 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 accompanying product supplement no. 150-I.

 

   

Anti-Dilution Protection is Limited: The calculation agent will make adjustments to the Stock Adjustment Factor for certain adjustment events affecting the Reference Stock. However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment in response to all events that could affect the Reference Stock. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to make an adjustment, the value of the notes may be materially and adversely affected.

The following table illustrates hypothetical payments at maturity on a $1,000 investment in the notes, based on a range of hypothetical Final Share Prices and assuming that the closing price of the Reference Stock is not below the Trigger Price on any trading day from the Pricing Date to, and including, the Observation Date, except as indicated in the column titled “Hypothetical lowest closing price of the Reference Stock during the Monitoring Period.”

* Note that you will receive at maturity any accrued and unpaid coupon payments, in addition to either shares of the Reference Stock (or, at our election, the Cash Value thereof) or the principal amount of your note in cash, as applicable. Also note that if you receive the Physical Delivery Amount, the total value of payment received at maturity shown in the table above includes the value of any fractional shares, which will be paid in cash.

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

Example 1: During the Monitoring Period, the Reference Stock does not close at a price below the Trigger Price. Because a Trigger Event has not occurred and the Final Share Price is not below the Initial Share Price, you will receive a payment at maturity of $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount note.

Example 2: During the Monitoring Period, the Reference Stock closed below the Trigger Price. However, on the Observation Date, the Final Share Price is not below the Initial Share Price. Because the Final Share Price is not below the Initial Share Price, you will receive $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount note at maturity even though a Trigger Event occurred.

 

PS-5


Example 3: During the Monitoring Period, the Reference Stock closed below the Trigger Price. On the Observation Date, the Final Share Price is $45.39, which is below the Initial Share Price. Because the Reference Stock had a closing price that was below the Trigger Price, and because the Final Share Price is below the Initial Share Price, you will receive the Physical Delivery Amount (or, at our election, the Cash Value thereof) at maturity. Because the Final Share Price is $45.39, the total value of your final payment at maturity, whether in shares of the Reference Stock or cash, is $850.00.

Regardless of the other payment you receive at maturity, you will have received coupon payments, for each $1,000 principal amount note, in the aggregate amount of approximately $38.63 over the term of the notes.

The actual number of shares of the Reference Stock (or, at our election, the Cash Value thereof) you would receive at maturity (if a Trigger Event occurs and the Final Share Price is below the Initial Share Price) and the actual Trigger Price may be more or less than the amounts displayed in the hypothetical examples and the chart above and will depend in part on the Initial Share Price.
