By Angela McDaniels

Seattle, April 23 - Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. priced a $1 million issue of reverse exchangeable notes due Oct. 24, 2007 linked to the common stock of First BanCorp., according to a 424B5 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The six-month notes will pay 6.25% for an annualized rate of 12.5%. Interest is payable monthly.

The payout at maturity will be par unless First BanCorp stock falls below the trigger price of $9.525 and finishes below the initial share price of $12.70, in which case the payout will be a number of First BanCorp shares equal to $1,000 divided by the initial share price or, at Lehman's option, the equivalent cash value.

There is a $150,000 over-allotment option.
