Summary

The Accelerated Return Notes^SM Linked to the PHLX Oil Service Sector^SM Index (Bloomberg Symbol “OSX <Index>”) due October     , 2008 (the “Notes”) are senior, unsecured debt securities of Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. that provide a leveraged return for investors, subject to a cap, if the level of the PHLX Oil Service Sector Index (the “Index”) increases moderately from the Starting Value of the Index on the Pricing Date to the Ending Value of the Index determined on valuation dates shortly prior to the Maturity Date of the Notes. Investors must be willing to forego interest payments on the Notes and willing to accept a repayment that is capped and that may be less, and potentially significantly less, than the original public offering price of the Notes.

Hypothetical Payout Profile

		This table reflects the hypothetical returns on the Notes, assuming a Capped Value of 24.0%, the midpoint of the range of 22.0% and 26.0%. The red line reflects the hypothetical returns on the Notes, while the blue line reflects the return of an investment in the Index.   This table has been prepared for purposes of illustration only. Your actual return will depend on the actual Ending Value, Capped Value and the term of your investment.

Hypothetical Payments at Maturity

Examples

Set forth below are three examples of payment at maturity calculations, assuming a hypothetical Starting Value of 260.58, the level of the Index on June 26, 2007, and a Capped Value of $12.40, the midpoint of the range of $12.20 and $12.60.

Example 1—The hypothetical Ending Value is 80% of the hypothetical Starting Value:

Payment at maturity (per unit) = $8.00

Example 2—The hypothetical Ending Value is 103% of the hypothetical Starting Value:

Payment at maturity (per unit) = $10.90

Example 3—The hypothetical Ending Value is 140% of the hypothetical Starting Value:

Payment at maturity (per unit) = $12.40 (Payment at maturity cannot be greater than the Capped Value)

The following table illustrates, for a hypothetical Starting Value of 260.58 (the closing level of the Index as obtained from Bloomberg page OSX <Index> on June 26, 2007) and a range of hypothetical Ending Values of the Index:

        The table below assumes a Capped Value of $12.40, the midpoint of the range of $12.20 and $12.60.

The above figures are for purposes of illustration only. The actual amount received by you and the resulting total and pretax annualized rates of return will depend on the actual Starting Value, Ending Value, Capped Value and term of your investment.

Risk Factors

An investment in the Notes involves significant risks. The following is a list of certain of the risks involved in investing in the Notes. You should carefully review the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the Notes in the “Risk Factors” sections included in the product supplement and MTN prospectus supplement identified below under “Additional Note Terms”. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers before you invest in the Notes.

Additional Risk Factors

Investments related to the oil services industry may be highly volatile. Oil service company stock prices have been and will likely continue to be extremely volatile. Oil service companies stock prices could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a variety of factors, including: the ability of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) to set and maintain production levels and pricing, the level of production in non-OPEC countries, the demand for oil and gas, which is negatively impacted by economic downturns, the policies of various governments regarding exploration and development of oil and gas reserves, advances in exploration and development technology and the political environment of oil-producing regions. Price volatility of the Underlying Stocks may adversely affect the level of the Index and consequently the trading value of your Notes.

The Index is not necessarily representative of the oil service industry. While the Underlying Stocks comprising the Index are common stocks of companies generally considered to be involved in various segments of the oil service industry, the Underlying Stocks and the Index may not necessarily follow the price movements of the entire oil service industry generally. If the Underlying Stocks decline in value, the Index will decline in value even if common stock prices in the oil service industry generally increase in value.

The level of the Index will be obtained from Bloomberg, and not from any other source. While the level of the Index may be obtained from several sources, the level of the Index relevant to the Starting Value, Ending Value and the calculation of the value of the Notes at any given point over the term of the Notes will be the level as reported by Bloomberg on page OSX <Index>.

Investor Considerations

Other Provisions

We may deliver the Notes against payment therefor in New York, New York on a date that is greater than three business days following the Pricing Date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, if the initial settlement on the Notes occurs more than three business days from the Pricing Date, purchasers who wish to trade Notes more than three business days prior to the original issue date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

The Index

PHLX Oil Services Sector^SM Index

All disclosure contained in this pricing supplement regarding the Index, including, without limitation, its make-up, method of calculation and changes in its components has been derived from publicly available information prepared by PHLX. ML&Co. and MLPF&S have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of that information.

The Index is designed to measure the performance of oil service companies whose primary lines of business are oil drilling and production services, oil field equipment, support services and geophysical/reservoir services (the “Underlying Stocks”). The Index (Bloomberg symbol “OSX <Index>”) is published by PHLX. The initial value of the Index was set at 75 on December 31, 1996. Options commenced trading on the Index on February 24, 2007. The following is a current list of companies included in the Index and their trading symbols: Baker Hughes Inc (BHI); BJ Services Co (BJS); Cameron International Corp (CAM); Global Industries Ltd (GLBL); Globalsantafe Corp (GSF); Halliburton Co (HAL); Nabors Industries Ltd (NBR); National Oilwell Varco Inc (NOV); Noble Corporation (NE); Rowan Companies, Inc (RDC); Schlumberger Limited (SLB); Smith International Inc (SII); Tidewater Inc (TDW); Transocean Inc (RIG); and Weatherford International Inc. Ltd (WFT). We have provided a brief description of each of the companies included in the Index and their corresponding historical price information in Annex A of this pricing supplement.

As a price-weighted index, the Index is calculated by adding the prices of the Underlying Stocks and dividing by a base market divisor (the “Base Market Divisor”), without taking into account market capitalization. The Index is not adjusted to take account of changes in the weightings of Underlying Stocks. Therefore, movements in Underlying Stocks with higher prices relative to other Underlying Stocks will exert a greater influence on the level of the Index.

Although the Index is not adjusted to account for movements in the Underlying Stocks, the Base Market Divisor may be adjusted from time to time as the companies comprising the Index issue additional stock or merge. In addition, the Base Market Divisor may be adjusted to account for companies that are removed from the Index because they are no longer involved in the oil service industry.

The PHLX is under no obligation to continue the calculation and dissemination of the Index. The Notes are not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by the PHLX. No inference should be drawn from the information contained in this pricing supplement that the PHLX makes any representation or warranty, implied or express, to ML&Co., the holder of the Notes or any member of the public regarding the advisability of investing in securities generally or in the Notes in particular or the ability of the Notes to track general stock market performance. The PHLX has no obligation to take the needs of ML&Co. or the holder of the Notes into consideration in determining, composing or calculating the Index. The PHLX is not responsible for, and has not participated in the determination of the timing of, prices for, or quantities of, the Notes to be issued or in the determination or calculation of the equation by which the Notes are to be settled in cash. The PHLX has no obligation or liability in connection with the administration or marketing of the Notes.

None of ML&Co., the Calculation Agent and MLPF&S accepts any responsibility for the calculation, maintenance or publication of the Index or any successor index.

Historical data on the Index

The following graph sets forth the historical performance of the Index (as obtained from Bloomberg) in the period from January 2002 through May 2007. This historical data on the Index is not necessarily indicative of the future performance of the Index or what the value of the Notes may be. Any historical upward or downward trend in the value of the Index during any period set forth below is not an indication that the Index is more or less likely to increase or decrease at any time over the term of the Notes. On June 26, 2007, the closing level of the Index was 260.58.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Taxation Considerations

Set forth below is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to an investment in the Notes. The following summary is not complete and is qualified in its entirety to the discussion under the section entitled “United States Federal Income Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement ARN-1 and MTN prospectus supplement, which you should carefully review prior to investing in the Notes.

General. There are no statutory provisions, regulations, published rulings or judicial decisions addressing or involving the characterization and treatment, for United States federal income tax purposes, of the Notes or securities with terms substantially the same as the Notes. Accordingly, the proper United States federal income tax characterization and treatment of the Notes is uncertain. Pursuant to the terms of the Notes, ML&Co. and every holder of a Note agree (in the absence of an administrative determination, judicial ruling or other authoritative guidance to the contrary) to characterize and treat a Note for all tax purposes as a pre-paid cash-settled forward contract linked to the level of the Index. Due to the absence of authorities that directly address instruments that are similar to the Notes, significant aspects of the United States federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Notes are not certain, and no assurance can be given that the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or the courts will agree with the characterization and tax treatment described above. Accordingly, prospective purchasers are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the United States federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Notes (including alternative characterizations and tax treatments of the Notes) and with respect to any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction.

Payment on the Maturity Date. Assuming that the Notes are properly characterized and treated as pre-paid cash-settled forward contracts linked to the level of the Index, upon the receipt of cash on the maturity date of the Notes, a U.S. Holder (as defined in the accompanying product supplement ARN-1) will recognize gain or loss. The amount of such gain or loss will be the extent to which the amount of the cash received differs from the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the Note. A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in a Note generally will equal the amount paid by the U.S. Holder to purchase the Note. It is uncertain whether any such gain or loss would be treated as ordinary income or loss or capital gain or loss. Absent a future clarification in current law (by an administrative determination, judicial ruling or otherwise), where required, ML&Co. intends to report any such gain or loss to the IRS in a manner consistent with the treatment of such gain or loss as capital gain or loss. If such gain or loss is treated as capital gain or loss, then any such gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held the Note for more than one year as of the maturity date.

Sale or Exchange of the Notes. Assuming that the Notes are properly characterized and treated as pre-paid cash-settled forward contracts linked to the level of the Index, upon a sale or exchange of a Note prior to the maturity date of the Notes, a U.S. Holder will generally recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized on such sale or exchange and such U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the Note so sold or exchanged. Any such capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held the Note for more than one year as of the date of such sale or exchange.

Circular 230 Legend. The foregoing discussion of United States federal income tax matters contained in this term sheet (a) was not intended or written to be legal or tax advice to any person and was not intended or written to be used, and it cannot be used, by any person for the purpose of avoiding any tax-related penalties that may be imposed on such person, and (b) was written to support the promotion or marketing of the Notes by Merrill Lynch. Each person considering an investment in the Notes should seek advice based on its particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each prospective investor (and each employee, representative, or other agent of each prospective investor) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the Notes and all materials of any kind that are provided to the prospective investor relating to such tax treatment and tax structure (as such terms are defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4). This authorization of tax disclosure is retroactively effective to the commencement of discussions between Merrill Lynch or its representatives and each prospective investor regarding an investment in the Notes.

Prospective purchasers of the Notes should consult their own tax advisors concerning the tax consequences, in light of their particular circumstances, under the laws of the United States and any other taxing jurisdiction, of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Notes.

Experts

The consolidated financial statements, the related financial statement schedule, and management’s report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting incorporated in this term sheet by reference from Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2006 have been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their reports, which are incorporated herein by reference (which reports (1) expressed an unqualified opinion on the consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule and include an explanatory paragraph regarding the change in accounting method in 2006 for share-based payments to conform to Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, (2) expressed an unqualified opinion on management’s assessment regarding the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, and (3) expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting) and have been so incorporated in reliance upon the reports of such firm given upon their authority as experts in accounting and auditing.

With respect to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information for the three-month periods ended March 30, 2007 and March 31, 2006 which is incorporated herein by reference, Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, have applied limited procedures in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) for a review of such information. However, as stated in their report included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 30, 2007 (which report included an explanatory paragraph regarding the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurement”, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115,” and FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.”) and incorporated by reference herein, they did not audit and they do not express an opinion on that interim financial information. Accordingly, the degree of reliance on their reports on such information should be restricted in light of the limited nature of the review procedures applied. Deloitte & Touche LLP are not subject to the liability provisions of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 for their reports on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information because those reports are not “reports” or a “part” of the registration statement prepared or certified by an accountant within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the Act.
