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

 

If a
Disruption Event identified in clauses (A), (B) or (C) below relating
to one or more Component Commodities is in effect on the scheduled Valuation
Date, the Calculation Agent will calculate the Final Basket Level using:

 

·              for each such Component
Commodity that did not suffer a Disruption Event on the scheduled Valuation
Date, the Final Commodity Price for that Component Commodity on the scheduled
Valuation Date, and

 

·              for each such Component
Commodity that did suffer a Disruption Event on the scheduled Valuation Date,
the Final Commodity Price on the immediately succeeding trading day for such
Component Commodity on which no Disruption Event occurs or is continuing with
respect to such Component Commodity;

 

provided however that if a
Disruption Event has occurred or is continuing with respect to a Component
Commodity on each of the three scheduled trading days following the scheduled
Valuation Date, then (a) that third scheduled trading day shall be deemed
the Valuation Date for the affected Component Commodity; and (b) the
Calculation Agent will determine the Final Commodity Price for the affected
Component Commodity on such day in its sole and absolute discretion taking into
account the latest available quotation for the Commodity Price for the affected
Component Commodity and any other information that in good faith it deems
relevant.

 

If a
Disruption Event identified in clauses (D) or (E) below relating to
one or more Component Commodities (other than Gold) is in effect on the
Valuation Date, the Calculation Agent will determine the Final Commodity Price
for the affected Component Commodity on the scheduled Valuation Date in its
sole and absolute discretion taking into 

 

6

 

account the latest available quotation
for the Commodity Price for the affected Component Commodity and any other
information that in good faith it deems relevant.

 

A “Disruption
Event” for a Component Commodity means, in each case as determined in good
faith by the Calculation Agent:

 

(A)          the suspension of or material limitation on trading in the
Component Commodity or futures contracts or options related to the Component
Commodity, on the Relevant Exchange for that Component Commodity;

 

(B)           either (i) the failure of trading to commence, or
permanent discontinuance of trading, in the Component Commodity, or futures
contracts or options related to the Component Commodity, on the Relevant
Exchange for that Component Commodity, or (ii) the disappearance of, or of
trading in, the Component Commodity;

 

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

 

(D)          solely with respect to Component Commodities other than
Gold, the occurrence since the Trade Date of a material change in the content,
composition, or constitution of the Component Commodity; or

 

(E)           solely with respect to Component Commodities other than
Gold, the occurrence since the Trade Date of a material change in the formula
for or the method of calculating the settlement price of the Component
Commodity.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

7

 

For
purposes of calculating the Final Basket Level in the event of a Disruption
Event relating to one or more Component Commodities in accordance with the above,
“trading day” means a day, as determined in good faith by the Calculation
Agent, on which trading is generally conducted on the Relevant Exchange
applicable to the affected Component Commodity.

 

The “Calculation Agent” means Lehman Brothers
Commodity Services Inc, the determinations and calculations of which will be
binding absent manifest error.

 

Except as provided below, any Redemption Amount at Maturity may, at the
option of the Company, be made by check mailed to the person entitled thereto
at such person’s address as it appears on the registry books of the Company.

 

Payment of any Redemption Amount at Maturity will be made in
immediately available 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 the coin or currency of the United States as at the time of
payment is legal 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.

 

This Note shall not be
valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of
authentication hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee under the
Indenture.

MEDIUM-TERM NOTES,
SERIES I

RETURN-ENHANCED NOTES LINKED TO A BASKET OF TEN COMMODITIES  
 DUE JUNE 24, 2011

 

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, Return-Enhanced Notes Linked to a Basket of
Ten Commodities (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 Redemption Amount at Maturity 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
Redemption Amount at Maturity 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 Redemption Amount at Maturity 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 any
Redemption Amount at Maturity 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 initially as either a Global Security or a Certificated
Note, at the option of the Company, in denominations of $1,000 or whole
multiples of $1,000, either at 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 amount of Notes of this
series of a different authorized denomination, except 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
transferees.

 

If at any time the
Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to 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 at Maturity, 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 at Maturity, 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 Redemption
Amount at Maturity 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, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall
be 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.Exhibit 4.02

LEHMAN BROTHERS HOLDINGS INC., a corporation duly organized and
existing under the 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 June 24, 2010, 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 to the principal amount of the notes multiplied by the
product of the Participation Rate and the Basket Return, if the Basket Return
is greater than zero, and zero, if the Basket Return is less than or equal to
zero; provided that the minimum Additional Amount payable on the notes shall be
zero.

 

The “Participation
Rate” is 180%.

 

The “Reference
Currencies” are the Chinese Renminbi (CNY) and Indian Rupee (INR).

 

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

 

The “Weighted
Currency Return” is, for each Reference Currency, the product of the
Weighting for such Reference Currency times a quotient, the numerator of which
is the difference of the Initial Reference Currency Rate for such Reference
Currency minus the Settlement Rate for such Reference Currency and the
denominator of which is the Initial Reference Currency Rate for such Reference
Currency.

 

The “Weighting”
and “Initial Reference Currency Rate” for each Reference Currency are as
follows:

 

	
  Reference Currency

  	
   

  	
  Weighting

  	
   

  	
  Initial Reference 

  Currency Rate

  INR

  %

  	
  42.93

  	
   

  

 

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, each Reference Currency, the spot exchange rates for that
Reference Currency quoted against the U.S. dollar, expressed as the number
units of the Reference Currency per one USD.

 

2

 

The “Valuation
Date” is June 21, 2010; 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 June 24, 2008.

 

The “Trade
Date” is June 19, 2008

 

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 (x) 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”) to accounts outside that Reference Currency
Jurisdiction, or (y) the conversion of the Reference Currency into USD
through customary legal channels

 

(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 

 

3

 

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.

 

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 indicated in the table
below:

 

	
  Reference Currency

  Beijing

  
	
  INR

  	
   

  	
  RBIB

  	
   

  	
  Mumbai

  

 

The “Settlement Rate Option” for
the CNY is the Chinese Renminbi/U.S. Dollar official fixing rate, expressed as
the amount of Chinese Renminbi per one U.S. Dollar, for settlement in two
Business Days reported by The State Administration of Foreign Exchange of the
People’s Republic of China, Beijing, which appears on the Reuters Screen SAEC Page opposite
the symbol “USDCNY=“ at approximately 5:00 p.m., Beijing time, on the
Valuation Date or such other 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. dollar, for settlement in two Business Days reported by the
Reserve Bank of 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 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
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 

 

4

 

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
person’s address as it appears on the registry books of the Company.

 

Payment of the Redemption Amount will be made in immediately available
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
the coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal
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.

 

This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until
the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee
under the Indenture.

MEDIUM-TERM NOTES,
SERIES I

FX BASKET-LINKED NOTE
 DUE JUNE 24, 2010

 

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 initially as either a Global Security or a Certificated
Note, at the option of the Company, in denominations of $1,000 or whole
multiples of $1,000, either at 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 amount of Notes of this series
of a different authorized denomination, except 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 transferees.

 

If at any time the
Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to 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, or because
of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be 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.
