Please see Key rRsks on the next page for additional information. Source: J.P.
Morgan. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. "JPUSBLCS
Index" refers to the performance of J.P. Morgan Balanced Capital Strength Index
(Bloomberg: JPUSBLCS Index) (the "Index"). The levels of the Index incorporate
an adjustment factor of 0.50% per annum and a deduction for a borrowing cost.
Hypothetical, historical performance measures: Represents the monthly and full
calendar year performance of the Index based on as applicable to the relevant
measurement period, the hypothetical back tested daily closing levels from
December 31, 2007 through April 29,2014 and the actual historical performance
of the Index based on daily closing levels from April 30, 2014 through July 31,
2014. YTD reflects the year to date performance of the Index from the last
business day of the previous calendar year through, and including June 28,
2013. The hypothetical historical values above have not been verified by an
independent third party. The back-tested, hypothetical historical results above
have inherent limitations. These back-tested results are achieved by means of a
retroactive application of a back-tested model designed with the benefit of
hindsight. No representation is made that an investment linked to the Index
will or is likely to achieve returns similar to those shown. Alternative
modelling techniques or assumptions would produce different hypothetical
historical information that might prove to be more appropriate and that might
differ significantly from the hypothetical historical information set forth
above. Hypothetical back-tested results are neither an indicator nor a
guarantee of future returns. Actual results will vary, perhaps materially, from
the analysis implied in the hypothetical historical information that forms part
of the information contained in the table above.

Key Risks
[] The Index is subject to the negative impact of an index fee and borrowing
cost
[] The Index may not achieve its target volatility--No assurance can be given
that the actual realized volatility of the Index will be at its target level of
8.5%.
[] The daily adjustment of the exposure of the Index to its target constituents
will vary--The Index's exposure to each of its Target Constituents may vary
between 0% and the maximum exposure of 100%.
[] The Index may be partially uninvested--When the exposure of the Index to its
Target Constituents is less than 100% on any day, a portion of the Index will
be uninvested. The Index will reflect no return for any uninvested portion.
[] The Index may significantly underperform its Equity Constituent
[] The exposure of the Index to its Bond Constituent may be greater, perhaps
significantly greater, than its exposure to its Equity Constituent
[] The Index may have significant exposure to its Cash Constituent
[] Our affiliate, J.P. Morgan Securities plc, is the calculation agent for the
Index and may adjust the Index in a way that affects its level--The policies and
judgments for which J.P. Morgan Securities plc, is responsible could have an impact,
positive or negative, on the level of the Index and the value of your investment. J.P.
Morgan Securities plc is under no obligation to consider your interest as an
investor with returns linked to the Index.
[] The Index may not be successful and may not outperform any alternative
strategy.
[] The Index comprises notional assets and liabilities and therefore there is
no actual portfolio of assets to which any person is entitled or in which any
person has any ownership interest.
[] The Index was established on April 30, 2014 and therefore has a limited
operating history.
[] You should review carefully the related "Risk Factors" section in the
relevant disclosure statement and the "Selected Risk Considerations" in the
relevant term sheet.
