laws of the State of Delaware (herein called the “Company,” which term includes
any successor corporation under the Indenture referred to on the reverse
hereof), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & Co., or
registered assigns, on the Maturity Date, an amount equal to the Redemption
Amount.


 


The “Maturity
Date” is November 30, 2009, or if such day is not a Business Day, on the next
following Business Day.


 


The “Redemption
Amount” is the amount equal to the sum of the principal amount of the Notes
plus the Additional Amount, if any.


 


The “Additional
Amount” is a single U.S. dollar amount equal the principal amount of the Notes

Currencies” are the Brazilian Real (BRL), Russian Ruble (RUB), Indian Rupee
(INR) and Chinese Renminbi (CNY).


 


The “Basket Return” equals the sum of the Weighted
Currency Returns for the Reference Currencies.


 


The “Weighted Currency Return” for each Reference
Currency is the product of the Weighting for such Reference Currency times a
quotient, the numerator of which is the difference of the Initial Reference

Reference Currency and the denominator of which is the Initial Reference
Currency Rate for such Reference Currency.

The “Settlement Rate” for each Reference Currency is
the Reference Exchange Rate on the Valuation Date, determined in accordance
with the applicable Settlement Rate Option (subject to the occurrence of a
Disruption Event).


 


The “Reference Exchange Rates” are the spot exchange
rates for each of the Reference Currencies quoted against the U.S. dollar
expressed as number of currency units per USD 1.

The “Valuation
Date” is November 24, 2009; provided that,
upon the occurrence of a Disruption Event with respect to a Reference Currency,
the Valuation Date for the affected Reference Currency may be postponed (as
described in “Disruption Events” below).


 


The “Issue
Date” is November 30, 2007.


 


If the Calculation Agent determines that a
Disruption Event relating to one or more of the Reference Currencies is in
effect on the scheduled Valuation Date, the Calculation Agent will determine
the Basket Return using:


 


•                                          for each Reference
Currency that did not suffer a Disruption Event on the scheduled Valuation
Date, the Settlement Rate on the scheduled Valuation Date, and


 


•                                          for each Reference
Currency that did suffer a Disruption Event on the scheduled Valuation Date,
the Settlement Rate on the immediately succeeding scheduled Valuation Business
Day for such Reference Currency on which no Disruption Event occurs or is
continuing with respect to such Reference Currency;


 


provided, however, that if a
Disruption Event has occurred or is continuing with respect to a Reference
Currency on each of the three scheduled Valuation Business Days following the
scheduled Valuation Date, then (a) such third scheduled Valuation Business Day
shall be deemed the Valuation Date for the affected Reference Currency; and (b)
the Calculation Agent will determine the Settlement Rate for the affected
Reference Currency on such day in accordance with Fallback Rate Observation
Methodology.


 


For purposes of the above, “scheduled Valuation
Business Day” means a day that is or, in the judgment of the Calculation Agent,
should have been, a Valuation Business Day for the affected Reference Currency.


 


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


 


(A)                              the occurrence and/or existence of an event on any
day that has the effect of preventing or making impossible the delivery of USD
from accounts inside the country for which a Reference Currency is the lawful
currency (such jurisdiction with respect to such Reference Currency, the “Reference
Currency Jurisdiction”) for that Reference Currency to accounts outside that
Reference Currency Jurisdiction;


 


(B)                                the occurrence of any
event causing the Reference Exchange Rate for the Reference Currency to be
split into dual or multiple currency exchange rates; or


 


(C)                                the Settlement Rate being unavailable for the
Reference Currency, or the occurrence of an event (i) in the Reference Currency
Jurisdiction for that Reference Currency that materially disrupts the market
for the Reference Currency or (ii) that generally makes it impossible to obtain
the Settlement Rate for the Reference Currency, on the Valuation Date.


 


3





















 


A
“Valuation Business Day” means, with respect to each Reference Currency, any
day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day
on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive
order to close (including for dealings in foreign exchange in accordance with
the practice of the foreign exchange market) in the city or jurisdiction

Days reported by the Banco Central do Brasil on SISBACEN Data System under

relevant date. The Settlement Rate Option for the INR is the Indian Rupee/U.S.
dollar reference rate, expressed as the amount of Indian Rupee per one U.S.

India which appears on the Reuters Screen RBIB Page at approximately 2:30 p.m.,
Mumbai time, or as soon thereafter as practicable on the on the
Valuation Date or such other relevant date.
The Settlement Rate Option for the CNY is the Chinese Renminbi/U.S. dollar

The
screen or time of observation indicated in relation to any Settlement Rate
Option above shall be deemed to refer to such screen or time of observation as
modified or amended from time to time, or to any substitute screen thereto.


 


The “Fallback Rate Observation Methodology” means that the reference exchange rate, Settlement
Rate or other rate, as specified in the applicable pricing supplement, in
respect of a reference currency will equal the noon buying rate in New York for
cable transfers in foreign currencies as announced by the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York for customs purposes (the “Noon Buying Rate”) on the relevant
Valuation Date or such other date specified in the applicable pricing
supplement. If the Noon Buying Rate is not announced on that date, the


 


4





















 


Reference
Exchange Rate, Settlement Rate or other rate for such Reference Currency will
be calculated on the basis of the arithmetic mean of the applicable spot
quotations received by the Calculation Agent at approximately 10:00 a.m.,
New York City time, on the Valuation Business Day next succeeding the Valuation
Date or such other date specified in the applicable pricing supplement, for the
purchase or sale for deposits in the reference currency by the New York offices
of three leading banks engaged in the interbank market (selected in the sole
discretion of the Calculation Agent) (the “Reference Banks”). If fewer than
three Reference Banks provide spot quotations, then the Reference Exchange
Rate, Settlement Rate or other rate, as applicable, will be calculated on the
basis of the arithmetic mean of the applicable spot quotations received by the
Calculation Agent at approximately 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the
relevant date from two Reference Banks (selected in the sole discretion of the
Calculation Agent), for the purchase or sale for deposits in the Reference
Currency. If these spot quotations are available from only one Reference Bank,
then the Calculation Agent, in its sole discretion, will determine whether that
quotation is reasonable to be used. If no spot quotation is available, then the
Reference Exchange Rate, Settlement Rate or other rate, as applicable, for such
Reference Currency will be determined by the Calculation Agent in good faith
and in a commercially reasonable manner.


 


A “Business Day”, notwithstanding any provision in the Indenture, is
any day that is not is not a Saturday or Sunday and that is not a day on which
banking institutions in New York City generally are authorized or obligated by
law or executive order to be closed.


 


The “Calculation Agent” means Lehman Brothers Inc.


 


Except as provided below, the Redemption Amount may, at the option of
the Company, be made by check mailed to the person entitled thereto at such

funds in accordance with the normal procedures of the Trustee (or any duly
appointed Paying Agent).


 


The Company will pay any administrative costs imposed by banks in
making payments in immediately available funds, but any tax, assessment or
governmental charge imposed upon payments hereunder, including, without
limitation, any withholding tax, will be borne by the Holder hereof.


 


References herein to “U.S. dollars” or “U.S.$” or “$” or “USD” are to

tender for the payment of public and private debts.


 


REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS NOTE SET
FORTH ON THE REVERSE HEREOF. SUCH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES
HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS IF SET FORTH AT THIS PLACE.

MEDIUM-TERM NOTES, SERIES I


FX BASKET-LINKED NOTE
 DUE NOVEMBER 30, 2009


 


Section
1. General. This Note is one of a
duly authorized series of Notes of the Company designated as the Medium-Term
Notes, Series I, FX Basket-Linked Note
(herein called the “Notes”). The
Notes are one of an indefinite number of series of debt securities of the
Company (collectively, the “Securities”) issued or issuable under and pursuant
to an indenture dated as of September 1, 1987, as amended and supplemented (the
“Indenture”), duly executed and delivered by the Company and Citibank, N.A., as
Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”), to which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights,
limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the
Trustee, the Company and the holders of the Securities. The separate series of
Securities may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at
different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates, may be subject
to different redemption provisions or repurchase rights (if any), may be
subject to different sinking, purchase or analogous funds (if any), may be
subject to different covenants and Events of Default and may otherwise vary as
in the Indenture provided.


 


Section
2. Principal Amount for Indenture Purposes. For the purpose of
determining whether Holders of the requisite amount of Notes of this series
outstanding under the Indenture have made a demand, given a notice or waiver or
taken any other action, the principal amount of this Note will be deemed to be
the principal amount of this Note then outstanding.


 


Section
3. Modification and Waivers. The Indenture contains provisions
permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not
less than 66-2/3% in aggregate principal amount of each series of the
Securities at the time Outstanding to be affected, evidenced as in the
Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions to
or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture
or of any supplemental indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the
holders of the Securities of all such series; provided, however, that no such
supplemental indenture shall, among other things, (i) change the fixed maturity
of any Security, or reduce the Additional Amount or the principal amount
thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon
or reduce any premium or other amount payable on redemption, or make the
Additional Amount or the principal amount thereof, premium or other amount
payable, if any, or interest thereon payable in any coin or currency other than
that herein above provided, without the consent of the Holder of each Security
so affected, or (ii) change the place of payment on any Security, or impair the
right to institute suit for payment on any Security, or reduce the aforesaid
percentage of Securities, the holders of which are required to consent to any
such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the holders of each Security
so affected. It is also provided in the Indenture that, prior to any
declaration accelerating the maturity of any series of Securities, the holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series
Outstanding may on behalf of the holders of all the Securities of such series
waive any past


 

















 


default or Event of
Default under the Indenture with respect to such series and its consequences,
except a default in the payment of interest, if any, on the Additional Amount
or the principal amount, or premium, if any, on any of the Securities of such
series, or in the payment of any sinking fund installment or analogous
obligation with respect to Securities of such series. Any such consent or
waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such
Holder and upon all future holders and owners of this Note and any Notes of
this series which may be issued in exchange or substitution herefor,
irrespective of whether or not any notation thereof is made upon this Note or
such other Notes of this series.


 


Section
4. Obligations Unconditional. No reference herein to the Indenture and
no provisions of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the
obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the
Additional Amount or the principal amount on this Note at the place, at the
respective times, at the rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.


 


Section
5. Defeasance. The Indenture contains provisions for the discharge of
the Indenture and defeasance at any time of the indebtedness on this Note upon
compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein, which
provisions apply to this Note.


 


Section
6. Authorized Form and Denominations. The Notes of this series are
issuable in registered form, without coupons. Each Note will be issued

the office or agency to be designated and maintained by the Company for such
purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, New York City, pursuant to the provisions
of the Indenture or at any of such other offices or agencies as may be
designated and maintained by the Company for such purpose pursuant to the
provisions of the Indenture, and in the manner and subject to the limitations
provided in the Indenture, but without the payment of any service charge,
except for any tax or other governmental charges imposed in connection
therewith. Notes of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal

that Global Securities will not be exchangeable for Certificated Notes of this
series.


 


Section
7. Registration of Transfer. As provided in the Indenture and subject to
certain limitations as therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is
registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Note for
registration of transfer, at the Corporate Trust Office or agency in a Place of
Payment for this Note, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument
of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar
requiring such written instrument of transfer duly executed by, the Holder
hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more
new Notes of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same
aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or

continue as Depository or if at any time the Depository shall no longer be
eligible under the Indenture, the Company shall appoint a successor Depository.
If a successor Depository for the Notes of this series is not appointed by the
Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware
of such ineligibility, the Company will issue, and the Trustee will


 

















 


authenticate and deliver,
Notes of this series in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal
to the principal amount of this Note.


 


No
service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange,
but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.


 


Prior
to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the
Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the person in
whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and
neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or of the
Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.


 


Section
8. Events of Default. If an Event of Default with respect to Notes of
this series shall occur and be continuing, the amount that may be declared due
and payable upon any acceleration of the notes will be determined by the
Calculation Agent for the period from and including the Issue Date to but
excluding the date of early repayment and will equal, for each note, the
Redemption Amount, calculated as the date of early repayment were the Maturity
Date. If a bankruptcy proceeding is commenced in respect of Lehman Brothers
Holdings, the claim of the beneficial owner of a note for the period from and
including the Issue Date to but excluding the date of early repayment will be
capped at the Redemption Amount, calculated as though the date of the
commencement of the proceeding were the Maturity Date.


 


Section
9. No Recourse Against Certain Persons. No recourse for the payment of
the Additional Amount or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect
hereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of
the Company in the Indenture or any Indenture supplemental thereto or in any Note,

had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past,
present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either
directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue
of any constitution, statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any
assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance
hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived
and released.


 


Section
10. Defined Terms. All terms used but not defined in this Note are used
herein as defined in the Indenture.


 


Section
11. GOVERNING LAW. THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
