The information and data included in this Monthly Operating Report (“MOR”) are derived from sources available to Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.

The term “Controlled Entities” refers to those entities that are directly or indirectly controlled by LBHI, including LAMCO LLC (“LAMCO”), and excludes, among other things, those entities that are under separate administrations in the United States or abroad, including Lehman Brothers Inc., which is the subject of proceedings under the Securities Investor Protection Act. LBHI and certain of its Controlled Entities have filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, and those entities are referred to herein as the “Debtors”. 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. The Debtors have prepared this MOR, as required by the Office of the United States Trustee, based on the information available to the Debtors at this time, but note that such information may be incomplete and may be materially deficient in certain respects. This MOR is not meant to be relied upon as a complete description of the Debtors, their business, condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations, prospects, assets or liabilities. The Debtors reserve all rights to revise this report.

  2. This MOR is not audited and will not be subject to audit or review by the Company’s external auditors at any time in the future.

 

  3. The beginning and ending balances include cash in demand-deposit accounts (DDA), money-market funds (MMF), treasury bills and other investments.

 

  4. Beginning and ending cash balances are based on preliminary closing numbers and are subject to adjustment.

 

  5. Beginning and ending cash balances exclude cash that has been posted as collateral for hedging activity.

LEHMAN BROTHERS HOLDINGS INC. (“LBHI”) AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

QUARTERLY HEDGING TRANSACTIONS UPDATE

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2010

The information and data included in this report are derived from sources available to Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (“LBHI”) and its Controlled Entities (collectively, the “Company”). The term “Controlled Entities” refers to those entities that are directly or indirectly controlled by LBHI, and excludes, among other things, those entities that are under separate administrations in the United States or abroad, including Lehman Brothers Inc., which is the subject of proceedings under the Securities Investor Protection Act. LBHI and certain of its Controlled Entities have filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, and those entities are referred to herein as the “Debtors”. 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 (the “Bankruptcy Rules”).

On March 11, 2009, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York overseeing the Debtors’ Chapter 11 cases (the “Court”) entered an “Order Pursuant to Sections 105 and 364 of the Bankruptcy Code Authorizing the Debtors to Grant First Priority Liens in Cash Collateral Posted in Connection With the Hedging Transactions the Debtors Enter Into Through Certain Futures and Prime Brokerage Accounts” [Docket No. 3047] (the “Derivatives Hedging Order”).

On July 16, 2009 the Court entered a separate “Order Pursuant to Sections 105 and 364 of the Bankruptcy Code Authorizing the Debtors to Grant First Priority Liens in Collateral Posted in Connection With Certain Hedging Transactions” [Docket No. 4423] (the “Residential Loan Order”).

On January 14, 2010 the Court entered a separate “Order Granting LBHI’s Motion for Authorization, Pursuant to Sections 105, 363 and 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, to Sell Certain Asset Backed-Securities and Related Relief” [Docket No. 6659], which authorized the Company to enter into hedging transactions to hedge against loss of value from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates (the “Asset Backed-Securities Hedging Order”).

On November 18, 2010 the Court entered a separate “Order Pursuant to Sections 105 and 364 of the Bankruptcy Code Authorizing the Debtors to Grant First Priority Liens in Collateral Posted in Connection with Foreign Exchange Hedging Transactions” [Docket No. 12891] (the “Macro FX Hedging Order”).

Terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Derivatives Hedging Order, the Residential Loan Order, the Asset Backed-Securities Hedging Order or the Macro FX Hedging Order (collectively, the “Hedging Orders”), as the case may be.

The Debtors have prepared this Quarterly Hedging Transactions Update, as required by the Hedging Orders, based on the information available to the Debtors at this time, but note that such information is partially based on market pricing which is subject to day-to-day fluctuations. The Debtors reserve all rights to revise this report.

Derivatives Hedging Order. Between the entry of the Derivatives Hedging Order and December 31, 2010 (the “Report Date”), the Debtors have executed 13 Hedging Transactions and the current value of collateral posted approximates $434 million. The Open Derivative Positions correspond to 42 non-terminated derivative contracts with an estimated recovery value as of the Report Date equal to approximately $682 million. The expected recovery amounts are determined using various models, data sources, and certain assumptions regarding contract provisions. The Company expects to adjust the amounts recorded for the Open Derivatives Positions in the future; such adjustments (including write-downs and write-offs) may be material. For further description regarding derivative recovery values, please refer to the March 2010 Supplemental Monthly Operating Report filed on August 13, 2010.

As of the Report Date, the Hedging Transactions were allocated to the individual Debtors as set forth on page 15.
