Broker Comment: ACCORDING TO FA, IN FEBRUARY 2006 CLIENT HAD A CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT (CD) MATURE AND REINVESTMENT OPTIONS WERE DISCUSSED. FA STATED CLIENT WAS NOT HAPPY WITH THE RATES AVAILABLE FOR CDS AND CLIENT EXPRESSED INTEREST IN THE LEHMAN BOND. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THE FA INFORMED THE CLIENT THE BOND WAS NOT INSURED; HOWEVER, THE BOND WAS RATED A+ BY STANDARD AND POORS. WHILE WE UNDERSTAND CLIENT'S CONCERNS RELATING TO THE VALUE OF THE LEHMAN BONDS HELD IN HER ACCOUNTS, THE RECENT DEVELOPMENTS WERE CERTAINLY A SURPRISE TO MANY IN THE FINANCIAL INDUSTRY.
