Summary

The Accelerated Return Notes^SM Linked to the PHLX Gold and Silver Sector^SM Index due January 16, 2009 (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 Gold and Silver Sector Index (Bloomberg Symbol “XAU <Index>“) (the “Index”) increases moderately from the Starting Value of the Index, determined on October 30, 2007, the date the Notes were priced for initial sale to the public (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 return that is capped or a repayment that is less, and potentially significantly less, than the original public offering price of the Notes.

Hypothetical Payout Profile

		This graph reflects the hypothetical returns on the Notes, including the Capped Value of 35.25%. The orange line reflects the hypothetical returns on the Notes, while the dotted blue line reflects the hypothetical return of an investment in the Index excluding dividends.   This graph has been prepared for purposes of illustration only. Your actual return will depend on the actual Ending Value and the term of your investment.

Hypothetical Payments at Maturity

Examples

Set forth below are three examples of payment at maturity calculations, reflecting the Starting Value of 180.70 and the Capped Value of $13.525.

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

Starting Value: 180.70

Hypothetical Ending Value: 144.56

Payment at maturity (per unit) = $8.00

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

Starting Value: 180.70

Hypothetical Ending Value: 186.12

Payment at maturity (per unit) = $10.90

Example 3—The hypothetical Ending Value is 120% of the Starting Value:

Starting Value: 180.70

Hypothetical Ending Value: 216.84

Payment at maturity (per unit) = $13.525         (Payment at maturity cannot be greater than the Capped Value)

The following table illustrates, for the Starting Value of 180.70 and a range of hypothetical Ending Values of the Index:

The table below reflects the Capped Value of $13.525.

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 Ending Value and the 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

The stocks included in the Index are concentrated in one industry. All of the stocks included in the Index are issued by companies in the gold and silver mining industry, or companies whose revenues consist of royalty income from gold and silver mining operations. As a result, the stocks that will determine the performance of the Notes are concentrated in one industry. Although an investment in the Notes will not give holders any ownership or other direct interests in the stocks underlying the Index, the return on an investment in the Notes will be subject to certain risks associated with direct equity investments in the gold and silver mining industry.

The Index is not necessarily representative of the gold and silver mining industry. While the stocks comprising the Index are common stocks of companies generally considered to be involved in various segments of the gold and silver mining industry, or companies whose revenues consist of royalty income from gold and silver mining operations, the stocks underlying the Index and the Index may not necessarily follow the price movements of the entire gold and silver mining industry generally. If the stocks underlying the Index decline in value, the Index will decline in value even if common stock prices in the gold and silver mining industry generally increase in value.

The performance of the stocks underlying the Index may be influenced by gold and silver prices. The performance of the stocks underlying the Index may be affected by the price of gold and silver in commodities markets. Gold and silver prices are subject to volatile price movements over short periods of time and are affected by numerous factors. These include economic factors, including, among other things, the structure of and confidence in the global monetary system, expectations of the future rate of inflation, the relative strength of, and confidence in, the U.S. dollar (the currency in which the prices of gold and silver are generally quoted), interest rates and gold and silver borrowing and lending rates, and global or regional economic, financial, political, regulatory, judicial or other events. Gold and silver prices may also be affected by industry factors such as industrial and jewelry demand, lending, levels of gold and silver production and production costs, and short-term changes in supply and demand because of trading activities in the gold and silver market. Gold prices may also be affected by sales and purchases of gold by the official sector, including central banks and other governmental agencies and multilateral institutions which hold gold. It is not possible to predict the aggregate effect of all or any combination of these factors.

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.

For all purposes, the Index will be considered an equity-based Market Measure.

The Index

PHLX Gold and Silver Sector^SM Index

All disclosure contained in this term sheet 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 the Philadelphia Stock Exchange (the “PHLX”). ML&Co. and MLPF&S have not independently verified and make no representation as to the accuracy or completeness of such information. None of ML&Co., the calculation agent and MLPF&S accepts any responsibility for the calculation, maintenance or publication of the PHLX Gold and Silver Sector Index or any successor index.

The Index is designed to measure the performance of sixteen companies involved in the gold and silver mining industry, or companies whose revenues consist of royalty income from gold and silver mining operations (the “Underlying Stocks”). The Index (index symbol “XAU”) is published by the PHLX and was set to 100 in January 1979. Options commenced trading on the Index on December 19, 1983. The Index is a capitalization-weighted index. The following is a list of companies included in the Index and their trading symbols: Agnico-Eagle Mines Limited (AEM); AngloGold Ashanti Limited (AU); Barrick Gold Corporation (ABX); Coeur d’ Alene Mines Corporation (CDE); Freeport McMoran Copper & Gold Inc. (FCX); Gold Fields Limited (GFI); Goldcorp Inc. (GG); Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited (HMY); Kinross Gold Corporation (KGC); Meridian Gold Inc (MDG); Newmont Mining Corporation (NEM); Pan American Silver Corp. (PAAS); Randgold Resources Limited (GOLD); Royal Gold, Inc. (RGLD), Silver Standard Resources Inc. (SSRI) and Yamana Gold Inc. (AUY). 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 term sheet.

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 term sheet 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. PHLX disclaims all responsibility for any errors or omissions in the calculation and dissemination of the Index or the manner in which the Index is applied in determining any Starting Value or Ending Value or any Redemption Amount payable to you on the maturity date of the Notes.

The level of the Index is reported on Bloomberg under the symbol “XAU”.

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 September 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 the Pricing Date, the closing level of the Index was 180.70.

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 by the discussion under the section entitled “United States Federal Income Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement ARN-2 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-2) 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.

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. See the discussion under the section entitled “United States Federal Income Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement ARN-2.

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) express an unqualified opinion on the consolidated financial statements and the related 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) express an unqualified opinion on management’s assessment regarding the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, and (3) express 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, and the three-month and six-month periods ended June 29, 2007 and June 30, 2006 which are 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 reports included in ML&Co.’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 30, 2007 and June 29, 2007 (which reports include 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.
