ITEM 7.01                                  Regulation FD Disclosure.

As previously disclosed, on September 15, 2008, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (the “Registrant”) filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Court”) in a jointly administered proceeding named In re Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., et. al. under Case Number 08-13555 (the “Chapter 11 Proceeding”).  As further disclosed previously, certain of the Registrant’s subsidiaries (collectively with the Registrant, the “Debtors”) have also filed proceedings under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors’ Chapter 11 cases have been consolidated for procedural purposes only and are being jointly administered pursuant to Rule 1015(b) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and the Debtors continue to operate as debtors-in-possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code.

On March 15, 2010, the Debtors filed with the Court a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization (the “Plan”).  The Plan is subject to confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court.  The Debtors did not file a disclosure statement for the Plan.  The Debtors have requested, pursuant to Rule 3016 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, that their time to file a disclosure statement for the Plan pursuant to Section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code be extended through April 14, 2010 without prejudice to their ability to request further extensions for cause shown.  A copy of the Plan is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report of Form 8-K.  A copy of the press release announcing the filing of the Plan is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report of Form 8-K.

This Current Report on Form 8-K is not a solicitation to accept or reject the proposed Plan or an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of the Debtors.  Any solicitation or offer to sell will be made pursuant to and in accordance with the disclosure statement and applicable law.

Limitation on Incorporation by Reference

In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K and Exhibit 99.1 hereto may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to the Registrant’s financial condition, results of operations, and business that is not historical information.  As a general matter, forward-looking statements are those focused upon future or anticipated events or trends and expectations and beliefs relating to matters that are not historical in nature.  The words “believe,” “expect,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate,” or “anticipate” and similar expressions, as well as future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “should,”  “would,” and “could,” often identify forward-looking statements.  The Registrant believes there is a reasonable basis for its expectations and beliefs, but they are inherently uncertain, and the Registrant may not realize its expectations and its beliefs may not prove correct.  The Registrant undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.  The Registrant’s actual results and future financial condition may differ materially from those described or implied by any such forward-looking statements as a result of many factors that may be outside the Registrant’s control.  Such factors include, without limitation: (i) the ability of the Registrant to develop, prosecute, confirm, and consummate any plan of reorganization or liquidation with respect to the Chapter 11 Proceeding; (ii) the Registrant’s ability to obtain Court approval with respect to motions in the Chapter 11 Proceeding; (iii) risks associated with third parties seeking and obtaining court approval for the appointment of a Chapter 11 trustee; and (iv) the potential adverse impact of the Chapter 11 Proceeding on the Registrant’s liquidity or results of operations.  This list is not intended to be exhaustive.
