QUANTUMONLINE.COM SECURITY DESCRIPTION:  Merrill Lynch & Co. Inc., STARS (Strategic Accelerated Redemption Securities), linked to the S&P 500 Index, due 12/1/2010, and issued at $10 per unit. The notes will receive no payments before maturity and make no guarantee of the return of principal at maturity. The securities will be automatically called on any of the three observation dates at a call premium of 25.35% per annum if the level of the index on any observation date is equal to or greater than the call level of 100% of the starting level of the index (starting level 857.39 as of 11/25/2008). The securities are automatically callable at $12.5350 on 11/30/2009, $13.8025 on 5/25/2010 and $15.0700 on 11/23/2010. At the maturity date, if the securities have not been called, and the level of the index is greater than the threshold level of 771.65 (90% of the starting level), the maturity payment will be the $10 principal value. If, at the maturity date, the index level is less than the threshold level, the holder will receive a payment based on the percentage change in the level of the index less 10%. As a result, the maturity payment may be less, and possibly significantly less, than the $10 offering price. See page TS-2 of the prospectus for further details on the maturity payment calculation method, page TS-3 for hypothetical calculations of potential maturity payments, and page TS-12 for information on the tax considerations of the notes. These notes are senior unsecured debt securities issued by Merrill Lynch & Co. Inc. and rank equally with all of their other unsecured and unsubordinated debt.
