Dear Sir or Madam
INDEX ADJUSTMENT EVENT AND INDEX DISRUPTION EVENT NOTICE
Merrill Lynch S.A. series 1460: USD 808,000 Index Linked Redemption Notes due 14 May, 2013 (ISIN: XS0362605643)
(the "Notes")
Unless otherwise defined in this letter, terms used herein shall have the same meaning as defined in the Final Terms
dated 9 May, 2008 (the "Final Terms") and the Base Prospectus dated 1 April, 2008 relating to the Notes (as supplemented
from time to time).
We hereby give you notice that an "Index Adjustment Event" and/ or an "Index Disruption Event" (collectively
referred to as "Index Event") has occurred with respect to Permal Macro Holdings Ltd. (formerly known as Permal FX,
Financials & Futures Ltd.) (the "Affected Fund"), a Component Fund in respect of the Notes. The Index Event was
triggered by a letter from the Affected Fund dated October 28, 2008, informing us that effective immediately, the
Affected Fund requires a 95-day prior notice of redemptions, an increase from the current 20-day notice period. The next
available redemption date for redemption requests (in respect of the Affected Fund) received after October 14, 2008 is
scheduled for February 28, 2009.
This event constitutes an Index Adjustment Event under paragraph 4.1(b) and / or an Index Disruption Event under
paragraph 4.2(e) of Schedule 3 ( Information Regarding the Reference Index ) of the Final Terms. According to this
Schedule 3,
(1) following the Index Adjustment Event, we shall determine the NAV of the Fund Unit on the basis of our estimate
of the reasonable market value of such Fund Unit as of the Portfolio Business Day immediately following such event (the
"Closing Unit Value"), having regard to then prevailing market conditions, the last reported NAV and such other
conditions which we determine relevant on the valuation of such Fund Unit, and such Closing Unit Value shall be used as
the basis of the calculation of the Fund Unit value until the Final Valuation Date;
(2) following the Index Disruption Event, we may:
(i) replace the Affected Fund with:
(a) units or shares of a successor fund(s), which in our sole determination, uses a similar selection methodology to
that used by the Affected Fund; or
(b) an asset, index, financial instrument or a basket of financial instruments, in each case which in our sole
determination has a similar market exposure to the Affected Fund;
(ii) remove the Affected Fund from the Reference Index and adjust the allocation on the unaffected Component Index;
Following the Index Adjustment Event or the Index Disruption Event, you may redeem the Notes in accordance with
Schedule 2 ( Special Conditions ) of the Final Terms.
We are in the process of determining the appropriate course of action and will inform you of our decision in due
course.
Yours faithfully
