III.
How do You Propose for the Asset Pie to be Allocated?
A.
Recap
of
the
9/22/10
State
of
the
Estate
Priorities announced at the State of the Estate:
Continued focus on claims assessment
Continued focus on foreign affiliates to obtain Plan support
Engage domestic creditor constituents


9
B.
Foreign
Affiliates
Substantial progress has been made:
Two additional Global Protocol meetings bringing total to seven group meetings
dedicated to the LBHI Plan
Exchange of proposals for terms of settlement agreements to be executed by
foreign affiliates
Bilateral negotiations have progressed
III. How do You Propose for the Asset Pie to be Allocated? (contd)


10
C.
Domestic Affiliates
Primary focus since 9/22/10 has been to work with the Unsecured Creditors Committee
to develop a common approach to a compromise plan that is thoughtful and fair to all
stakeholders
Additionally, as a result of numerous and exhaustive meetings, received input from major
creditors and their advisors as to Plan concepts
On
December
15,
2010,
LBHI
Ad-hoc
group
filed
a
proposed
chapter
11
plan
based
upon substantive consolidation
Other creditor groups have provided settlement frameworks providing for non-
consolidation plans
In developing the proposed Plan, the Debtors have taken into account input from the
major constituents, including LBHI, LCPI, LBCS, and LBSF creditor groups and the
Unsecured Creditors’
Committee
Communications with LBI over issues has improved, but progressing slowly
Based
upon
input
received
from
major
constituencies,
the
Debtors
understand
the
legal and economic positions of such constituencies
III. How do You Propose for the Asset Pie to be Allocated?
(cont’d)

D.
Overview
of
Proposed
First
Amended
Plan
The Plan will encompass an economic compromise of creditor claims and provides for a
two step framework:
Creditors of certain of the subsidiary Debtors will have a percentage of their
recoveries reallocated to the LBHI Senior Unsecured and General Unsecured
creditors
Creditors of the subsidiary Debtors with guarantee claims against LBHI will have a
percentage of their recoveries reallocated to the LBHI Senior Unsecured and General
Unsecured creditors
Non
trading
intercompany
claims
of
LBHI
against
subsidiary
Debtors
will
be
reduced
by a certain percentage
III. How do You Propose for the Asset Pie to be Allocated?
(cont’d)
Settlement compromise between the Senior and General Unsecured
Creditors of LBHI and the creditors of subsidiary Debtors

Overview

Plan
(cont’d)
Creditors of foreign affiliates with a guarantee claim against LBHI will have a
percentage of their recoveries reallocated to the LBHI Senior Unsecured and General

will

depending
on
the
type of guarantee claim
III. How do You Propose for the Asset Pie to be Allocated?

13
E.
Conclusion
Since March 2010 the Debtors have refined:
the fact base and legal analysis as to the enforceability of various guarantee
claims
their understanding of the positions taken by the numerous Lehman constituents
their
estimate
of
the
overall
claims,
especially
foreign
guarantee
claims
The Plan proposes that every creditor constituency agree to provide concessions to
obviate extended litigation, expense and loss of time
The
proposed
concessions
will
result
in
a
fair
resolution
of
all
issues
All parties should recognize that a lack of flexibility may be detrimental to their
economic interests
III. How do You Propose for the Asset Pie to be Allocated? (contd)


14
F.   Timetable -
Next Steps
Amended Plan and Amended Disclosure Statement should be filed within days 
Debtors will review and discuss the Amended Plan with the key constituents in the
days and weeks following the filing
Prosecution
of
the
Amended
Plan
will
be
dependent
on
Plan
support
and
the
Court’s
calendar
III. How do You Propose for the Asset Pie to be Allocated? (contd)


15
A significant amount of filed claims remains unresolved
LBSF and the other estates with derivative assets have made significant progress on
the asset (or receivable) collection process
The key challenge is to find a fair and cost effective way to resolve derivative claim
disputes
Proposed solution = Derivatives Settlement Framework
IV. Any Key Remaining Challenges, Once the Plan Gains Consensus?


16
IV.
Key Remaining Challenge (contd)
Future claims resolution more challenging as a result of (i) difficult legal and valuation issues; and (ii)
larger trade populations remaining (i.e., Big Banks)
Two options:
(i)
Continue
claims
resolution
on
a
contract
by
contract
basis
using
limited
tools
available
(ADR)
to
avoid drawn-out costly litigation
(ii)
Resolve valuations for all derivative claims concurrently and uniformly through a Derivative
Settlement Framework to be proposed in the Plan
Note: (1) Derivative claims are claims prior to adjustments for management estimates.

IV.
Key Remaining Challenge (contd)
The Derivatives Claims Settlement Framework concept was developed in collaboration
with certain of the Big Banks and the UCC
The Derivative Claims Settlement Framework provides for:
Derivative Claims Settlement Rules
At mid-market price
Using defined portfolio aggregation rules
Applying an allowance for bid / ask as determined by Debtor
Derivative claims settlement rules
A commitment to creditors to a process and timeline
The proposed framework provides consistent, transparent, derivative valuation
rules applicable to all remaining derivative contracts
Remaining Derivative contracts valued by Debtor:
At end of day at Termination Date, unless counterparty can satisfactorily prove
to Debtor on economic close out at a different time on the Termination Date


18
IV.
Key Remaining Challenge (contd)
Exceptions to the Rules
Commercially reasonable replacement of trade at Termination Date
Commercially reasonable Market Quotation Process (1992 ISDA) at Termination
Date

IV.
Key Remaining Challenge (contd)
Process and Timeline
Claims
valuation
rules
to
be
developed
in
collaboration
with
the
UCC
with
feedback
from key market participants (certain Big Banks)
Framework to be applied to all unsettled derivative claims through the Plan with the
creation of separate derivative creditor claims class for each of the derivative entities
(LBSF, LBCS, LBCC, etc.)
Commitment to a timeline that will provide rules and result of rules by April 30, 2011


20
IV.
Key Remaining Challenge (contd)
Key Benefits of Settlement Framework
Uniformity –
Consistent rules to apply to valuation of all derivative claims
Transparency –
Rules will be published and claims valuations can be reviewed
Expediency –
Avoid years of litigation
Consensual Approach –
Rules developed in collaboration with UCC with feedback from
key market players
Settlement Framework will require a compromise by many of the derivative
claimants, but the claimants should recognize that the benefits outweigh the
compromise required
