Corporate Governance

The Board strongly endorses the continued role of Jamie Dimon as both Chairman and CEO under the Board oversight structure led by our Presiding Director. The Firm has had strong performance through the cycle since Mr. Dimon became Chairman and CEO, and during a time when many other financial institutions with independent Chairs experienced great difficulty. The strength and independence of the Board’s oversight has been well demonstrated by the actions taken and in process following the events that developed in the Chief Investment Office in 2012.

Corporate governance is a continuing focus at JPMorgan Chase, starting with our Board of Directors and extending throughout the Firm.

Independence: Every director other than the CEO (who serves as Chairman) is independent, and independent directors comprise 100% of the following principal Board committees.

Audit Committee	Public Responsibility Committee
Compensation & Management Committee	Risk Policy Committee
Corporate Governance & Nominating Committee

Presiding Director: The Firm’s Presiding Director is appointed annually by and from among the independent directors, approves Board meeting agendas and schedules, may add agenda items, approves Board meeting materials for distribution to the Board, facilitates communication between the Chairman and CEO and the

ii JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement

independent directors, as appropriate, and is available for consultation and communication with major shareholders where appropriate.

Executive sessions: Independent directors generally meet in executive session as part of each regularly scheduled Board meeting, with discussion led by the Presiding Director.

Strong committee structure: All chairs of principal committees are independent, approve agendas and material for meetings and work directly with senior management responsible for matters within the scope of their responsibilities.

Resources: The Board has complete access to management and the Board and Board Committees can, if they wish to do so, seek legal or other expert advice from sources independent of management.

Share retention: For so long as they serve, the directors pledge they will retain all shares of the Firm’s common stock purchased on the open market or received pursuant to their service as a Board member.

Majority voting: Directors are elected annually (there is not a “staggered” board), with majority voting in uncontested elections.

Shareholder rights: Shareholders holding at least 20% of the outstanding shares of common stock (net of hedges) can call a special meeting. The Board is proposing for shareholder approval an amendment to the Firm’s Certificate of Incorporation that would permit shareholders to act by written consent on terms intended to be substantially similar to the terms applicable to call special meetings.

Additional information is provided under Corporate governance at page 7 and in response to Proposal 6 to require separation of Chairman and CEO.

Compensation Principles and 2012 Executive Compensation

Compensation determinations are guided by the JPMorgan Chase Compensation Principles and Practices. As described starting at page 18 and in Appendix C at page 59, these principles include:

• Maintaining strong governance: Independent Board oversight of the Firm’s compensation principles and practices and their implementation

• Attracting and retaining top talent: A recognition that competitive and reasonable compensation helps attract and retain the high quality people necessary to grow and sustain our businesses

• Tying compensation to performance:

◦ A focus on the qualitative as well as the quantitative performance of the individual employee, the relevant line of business or function and the Firm as a whole

◦ A focus on multi-year, long-term, risk-adjusted performance and rewarding behavior that generates sustained value for the Firm through business cycles

◦ Performance assessments that are broad-based and balanced, including an emphasis on teamwork and a “shared success” culture

• Aligning with shareholder interests:

◦ A significant stock component (with deferred vesting) for shareholder alignment and retention of top talent

◦ Very strict limits or prohibitions on executive perquisites, special executive retirement severance plans, and no golden parachutes

• Integrating risk and compensation:

◦ Input into compensation determinations by risk and control functions

◦ Although awards are made with the expectation that they will vest in accordance with their terms, all awards contain strong recovery provisions, and additional risk-related recovery provisions apply to the Operating Committee, the Firm’s most senior management group, and to a group of senior employees we refer to as Tier 1 employees with primary responsibility for risk positions and risk management

◦ Shares received by Operating Committee members are subject to robust retention requirements and a prohibition on hedging

2012 Performance Highlights of the Firm ¹ 

During 2012, the Firm continued its strong performance, as reflected in:

• Third consecutive year of record net earnings and 15% ROTCE; ROE of 11%

• Record net earnings of $21.3 billion, up 12%; Record EPS of $5.20 per share, up 16%

• Common share price increased by 32% in 2012; total return with dividends of 36%

• Remained committed to helping homeowners and preventing foreclosures

• The foregoing results include the effect of significant losses incurred in 2012 in the Synthetic Credit Portfolio within the Firm’s Chief Investment Office. For more information about the Firm’s 2012 performance, see pages 16–17 and Appendix E at page 62.

2012 Compensation for Mr. Dimon: As announced on January 16, 2013, the Board approved 2012 compensation for Mr. Dimon in the amount of $11.5 million, down 50% from the prior year. Compensation included salary of $1.5 million (flat with the prior year) and incentive compensation of $10 million, all in the form of RSUs (down 53.5% from the prior year). The RSUs vest over three years, half after two years and the other half after three years. The Board also deferred, for a period up to July 22, 2014, vesting of options in the form of share settled stock appreciation rights it had granted Mr. Dimon in January 2008 and which had been scheduled to vest in January 2013.

iv JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement

Proxy statement

Your vote is very important. For this reason, the Board of Directors of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (“JPMorgan Chase” or the “Firm”) is requesting that you allow your common stock to be represented at the annual meeting by the proxies named on the proxy card. This proxy statement is being sent or made available to you in connection with this request and has been prepared for the Board by our management. The proxy statement is being sent and made available to our shareholders on or about April 10, 2013.

Proposal 1 — Election of directors

Nominees

Our Board of Directors has nominated 11 directors for election at this annual meeting to hold office until the next annual meeting and the election of their successors. All of the nominees are currently directors. Each has agreed to be named in this proxy statement and to serve if elected. All of the nominees are expected to attend the May 21, 2013, annual meeting.

Although we know of no reason why any of the nominees would not be able to serve, if any nominee is unavailable for election, the proxies intend to vote your common stock for any substitute nominee proposed by the Board of Directors. The Board may also choose to reduce the number of directors to be elected, as permitted by our By-laws.

Nomination process

The Board’s Corporate Governance & Nominating Committee (the “Governance Committee”) is responsible for evaluating and recommending to the Board proposed nominees for election to the Board of Directors. The Governance Committee, in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer, periodically reviews the criteria for composition of the Board and evaluates potential new candidates for Board membership. The Governance Committee then makes recommendations to the Board. The Governance Committee also takes into account criteria applicable to Board committees.

As stated in the Corporate Governance Principles of the Board (the “Corporate Governance Principles”), in determining Board nominees, the Board wishes to balance the needs for professional knowledge, business expertise, varied industry knowledge, financial expertise, and CEO-level management experience. Following these principles, the Board seeks to select nominees who combine leadership and business management experience, experience in disciplines relevant to the Firm and its businesses, and personal qualities reflecting integrity, judgment, achievement, effectiveness, and willingness to appropriately challenge management.

The Board strives to ensure diversity of representation among its members. Of the 11 director nominees, two are women and one is African-American. Increasing diversity is a priority, and when considering prospects for possible recommendation to the Board, the Governance Committee reviews available information about the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills of prospects, as well as their gender, race and ethnicity.

The Governance Committee will consider director candidates recommended for consideration by members of the Board, by management and by shareholders, and will seek diverse slates when considering candidates. Shareholders wishing to recommend to the Governance Committee a candidate for director should write to the Secretary at: JPMorgan Chase & Co., Office of the Secretary, 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10017.

It is the policy of the Governance Committee that candidates recommended by shareholders will be considered in the same manner as other candidates and there are no additional procedures a shareholder must undertake in order for the Governance Committee to consider such shareholder recommendations.

Information about the nominees

Boards act collectively and, together, the members of the Board provide the Firm with a breadth of demonstrated senior leadership and management experience in large complex organizations, global marketing, services and operations, regulated industries, wholesale and retail businesses, financial controls and reporting, compensation, governance, management succession, strategic planning and risk management. The director nominees bring broad and varied skills and knowledge from positions in global businesses, not-for-profit organizations and government, and diverse perspectives from a broad spectrum of industries, community activities and other factors. Each possesses the personal characteristics needed for the responsibilities of a director: each has demonstrated significant achievement in his or her endeavors, can work cooperatively and productively in the interest of all

JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement 1

shareholders, possesses high character and integrity, devotes the necessary time to discharge his or her duties, and, for non-management directors, is independent.

The following provides biographical information regarding each of the nominees, including their specific business experience, qualifications, attributes and skills that the Board considered, in addition to their prior service on the Board, when it determined to nominate them.

Unless stated otherwise, all of the nominees have been continuously employed by their present employers for more than five years. The age indicated in each nominee’s biography is as of May 21, 2013, and all other biographical information is as of the date of this proxy statement.

Corporate governance

Introduction

Governance is a continuing focus at JPMorgan Chase, starting with the Board of Directors and extending throughout the Firm. In this section we describe some of our key governance practices.

Corporate Governance Principles of the Board — The Board of Directors first adopted Corporate Governance Principles in 1997, and has revised them periodically since then to reflect evolving best practices and regulatory requirements, including the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) corporate governance listing standards. The Corporate Governance Principles establish a framework for the governance of the Firm.

Board leadership structure — The Board of Directors is responsible for the oversight of management on behalf of the Firm’s shareholders. The Board accomplishes this function acting directly and through its committees. Directors discharge their duties at Board and committee meetings and also through telephone contact and other communications with the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), management and others regarding matters of concern and interest to the Firm. Specific elements of our Board leadership structure are outlined in Appendix A and include:

Chairman of the Board — The Firm’s Board of Directors has no established policy on whether or not to have a non-executive chairman and believes that it should make that judgment based on circumstances and experience. The Board has determined that the most effective leadership model for the Firm currently is that Mr. Dimon serves as both Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and that the independent directors annually appoint an independent director to serve as the Presiding Director. The Board believes it is functioning effectively under its current structure, and that the current structure provides appropriate oversight protections. The Board does not believe

JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement 7

that introducing a separate Chairman at this time and with this CEO would provide appreciably better direction for and performance of the Firm, and instead could cause uncertainty, confusion and inefficiency in board and management function and relations.

Independent oversight — Independent directors comprise more than 90% of the Board and 100% of the Audit Committee, Compensation & Management Development Committee (the “Compensation Committee”), Governance Committee, Public Responsibility Committee and Risk Policy Committee. At each regularly scheduled Board meeting, the independent directors generally meet in executive session with no members of management present and may discuss any matter they deem appropriate, including evaluation of the CEO and other senior officers and determination of their compensation.

Presiding Director — The Firm’s Presiding Director functions as a Lead Director, but the Board prefers the term Presiding Director to emphasize that all directors share equally in their responsibilities as members of the Board. The Presiding Director presides at executive sessions of independent directors (generally held as part of each regularly scheduled Board meeting) and at all Board meetings at which the Chairman is not present, and has authority to call meetings of independent directors. The Presiding Director approves Board meeting agendas and schedules for each Board meeting, may add agenda items in his or her discretion, approves Board meeting materials for distribution to and consideration by the Board, facilitates communication between the Chairman and CEO and the independent directors, as appropriate, is available for consultation and communication with major shareholders where appropriate, upon reasonable request, and performs such other functions as the Board directs. The Presiding Director is appointed annually by and from among the independent directors.

Committee Chairs — All are independent and are appointed annually by the Board, approve agendas and material for respective committee meetings, and act as liaison between committee members and the Board and between committee members and senior management.

Committees of the Board

The Board has five principal standing committees: Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, Governance Committee, Public Responsibility Committee and Risk Policy Committee. The charter of each such committee can be found on our Website at www.jpmorganchase.com under Governance, which is under the About Us tab. Each member of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Governance Committee has been determined by the Board to be independent for purposes of the NYSE corporate governance listing standards and within the meaning of regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

As stated in the Board’s Corporate Governance Principles, Board members have complete access to management, and the Board and Board committees can, if they wish to do so, seek legal or other expert advice from sources independent of management and shall be provided the resources for such purposes.

8 JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement

The following outlines the oversight responsibilities of the Board’s principal committees. In addition to those responsibilities listed, each committee has oversight of reputational risk arising from matters within the scope of the committee.

Audit Committee — provides oversight of the independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence; the performance of the internal audit function and that of the independent registered public accounting firm; and management’s responsibilities to assure that there is in place an effective system of controls reasonably designed to safeguard the assets and income of the Firm, assure the integrity of the Firm’s financial statements, and maintain compliance with the Firm’s ethical standards, policies, plans and procedures, and with laws and regulations. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Bell, Ms. Bowles and Mr. Jackson are audit committee financial experts as defined by the SEC.

Compensation & Management Development Committee — reviews and approves the Firm’s compensation and benefit programs; ensures the competitiveness of these programs; and advises the Board on the development of and succession for key executives. The Compensation Committee periodically reviews and approves a statement of the Firm’s compensation principles and practices and also reviews the relationship among risk, risk management and compensation in light of the Firm’s objectives, including its safety and soundness and the avoidance of practices that would encourage excessive risk. Information on the Committee’s processes and procedures for consideration of executive compensation is provided in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis at page 16.

Corporate Governance & Nominating Committee — exercises general oversight with respect to the governance of the Board of Directors, including reviewing the qualifications of nominees for election to the Board and making recommendations to the Board regarding director compensation. The Governance Committee leads the Board in its review and self-evaluation of the performance of the Board as a whole with a view to increasing the effectiveness of the Board.

Public Responsibility Committee — reviews and considers the Firm’s position and practices regarding public responsibility matters of significance to the Firm and provides guidance on these matters to management and the Board as appropriate.

Risk Policy Committee — provides oversight of the CEO’s and senior management’s responsibilities to: assess and manage the Firm’s credit risk, market risk, structural interest rate risk, investment risk, liquidity risk, fiduciary risk and model risk; ensure that there is in place an effective system reasonably designed to evaluate and control such risks throughout the Firm; and manage capital and liquidity planning and analysis.

Board and committee interaction — Committees meet regularly in conjunction with scheduled Board meetings, and hold additional meetings as needed. The Audit Committee and the Risk Policy Committee hold joint meetings on matters of mutual interest. The Compensation Committee meets at least annually with the Firm’s Chief Risk Officer and the Risk Policy Committee or its Chair to review elements of our organizational structure, management practices and compensation programs that would discourage unnecessary or excessive risk-taking and to assess our incentive arrangements. The committees report their activities and discuss their recommendations with the full Board.

Board committees membership —The following table summarizes the membership of the Board and each of its principal committees, and the number of times each met during 2012:

Director 1	Audit	Compensation & Management Development	Corporate Governance & Nominating	Public Responsibility	Risk Policy
James A. Bell	Member

Lee R. Raymond 2		Chair	Member
William C. Weldon		Member	Chair
Number of meetings in 2012	16	7	4	4	8

1 William H. Gray, III and David C. Novak did not stand for reelection when their terms expired on the eve of the annual meeting on May 15, 2012. Prior to such annual meeting, Mr. Gray served on the Audit Committee and the Public Responsibility Committee and Mr. Novak served on the Compensation Committee and the Governance Committee (and served as Chair of the latter until March 2012).

2 Presiding Director

During 2012, the Board met 15 times; each director attended 75% or more of the total meetings of the Board and the committees on which he or she served.

Other Board Committees—In addition to the above committees, the Board has a Board-level Executive Committee and a Stock Committee. The Board-level Executive Committee consists of the CEO and the Chairs of the Board’s principal committees. It may exercise all the powers of the Board that lawfully may be delegated, but with the expectation that it would not take material actions absent special circumstances.

The Stock Committee, acting through the CEO, acts in accordance with Board-approved limitations and capital plans to implement the declaration of dividends, authorize the issuance of stock, administer the dividend reinvestment plan, and implement share repurchase plans. The Board may also from time to time establish a committee for a specific purpose. During 2012, Messrs. Jackson, Raymond and Weldon served on the Board’s Review Committee established in connection with the Firm’s Chief Investment Office (“CIO”), Messrs. Crown and Jackson served on a Mortgage Compliance Committee and Ms. Bowles and Messrs. Bell and Jackson served on an AML (Anti-Money Laundering) Enhancement Committee.

Director independence

Of the 11 directors on JPMorgan Chase’ s Board, ten (all but Mr. Dimon) meet the standard for independence.

Pursuant to the corporate governance listing standards of the NYSE, a majority of the Board of Directors (and each member of the Audit, Compensation and Governance Committees) must be independent. The Board of Directors may determine a director to be independent if the director has no disqualifying relationship as defined in the NYSE corporate governance rules and if the Board has affirmatively determined that the director has no material relationship with JPMorgan Chase, either directly or as a partner, shareholder, or officer of an organization that has a relationship with JPMorgan Chase.

The Board of Directors reviewed the relationships between the Firm and each director and determined that in accordance with the NYSE corporate governance listing standards and the Firm’s independence standards, each non-management director (James A. Bell, Crandall C. Bowles, Stephen B. Burke, David M. Cote, James S. Crown, Timothy P. Flynn, Ellen V. Futter, Laban P. Jackson, Jr., Lee R. Raymond and William C. Weldon) has only immaterial relationships with JPMorgan Chase and accordingly each is an independent director under these standards. Two directors who retired in May 2012, William H. Gray, III and David C. Novak, had only immaterial relationships with JPMorgan Chase and, accordingly, each was an independent director.

In connection with the assessment of director independence, the relationships listed in Appendix B are deemed immaterial unless the Board otherwise determines. Criteria relating to director independence may also be found in

10 JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement

the Corporate Governance Principles on our Website. There are additional objective tests for independence in the NYSE rules and each of the nominees meets (and in the case of the retired directors met) these objective tests for independence as well. Under the NYSE rules, a director employed by the Firm cannot be deemed to be an independent director and, consequently, James Dimon is not an independent director of JPMorgan Chase.

In making its determinations concerning director independence, the Board considered the following transactions between the Firm and each director and nominee, their immediate family members and any such person’s principal business affiliations: extensions of credit made by bank subsidiaries of the Firm; financial products and services provided by subsidiaries of the Firm; business transactions for property or services contracted for by subsidiaries of the Firm; and charitable contributions made by the JPMorgan Chase Foundation or the Firm to any nonprofit organization of which a director or nominee is employed as an officer. The Board reviewed these relationships in light of the Firm’s and NYSE independence standards and determined that none of them create a material relationship between the Firm and the respective director or would impair the independence or judgment of the respective director. In particular, the Board considered:

• Consumer credit — extensions of credit provided to directors Bell and Jackson; and credit cards issued to directors Bells, Bowles, Cote, Crown, Flynn, Futter, Jackson, Raymond, and Weldon, and their immediate family members;

• Wholesale credit — extensions of credit and other financial and financial advisory services provided to Springs Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries, where Ms. Bowles is Chairman of the Board; NBCUniversal, LLC and Comcast Corporation and their subsidiaries, where Mr. Burke is Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President, respectively; Honeywell International Inc. and its subsidiaries, where Mr. Cote is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer; Henry Crown and Company, where Mr. Crown is President, and other Crown family-owned entities; and the American Museum of Natural History, where Ms. Futter is President and a Trustee; and

• Goods, services and contributions — purchases of building safety and security equipment and maintenance services from Honeywell International Inc.; leases of office and retail space from subsidiaries of companies in which Mr. Crown and members of his immediate family have indirect ownership interests; and charitable contributions to the American Museum of Natural History.

All of the transactions, relationships and arrangements of the types listed above were entered into, and payments were made or received, by the Firm in the ordinary course of business and on substantially similar terms as those that would be offered to comparable counterparties in similar circumstances.

Other governance practices

Independent director meetings — Independent directors generally meet in executive session as part of each regularly scheduled Board meeting, with discussion led by the Presiding Director.

Majority voting for directors — The Firm’s By-laws provide a majority voting standard for election of directors in uncontested elections, with resignation tendered by any incumbent director who is not re-elected, and plurality voting in any election that is contested.

Board’s role in risk oversight — The Firm’s risk management is described in the Management Discussion and Analysis of the 2012 Annual Report starting at page 64. As stated there, risk is an inherent part of JPMorgan Chase’s business activities and the Firm’s overall risk appetite is established in the context of the Firm’s capital, earnings power and diversified business model. The Firm’s risk management framework and governance structure are intended to provide comprehensive controls and ongoing management of the major risks taken in its business activities.

In May 2012, the Firm announced that there had been significant trading losses in a synthetic credit portfolio within the Firm’s Chief Investment Office. The Firm appointed a Management Task Force to review the trading losses and the Board of Directors established an independent Review Committee of the Board (the “Board Review Committee”) to oversee the scope and work of the Management Task Force review, to assess the Firm’s risk management processes related to the issues raised in the Management Task Force review, and to report to the Board of Directors on the Board Review Committee’s findings and recommendations. On January 16, 2013, the Firm announced that the Firm’s Management Task Force and the Board Review Committee had each concluded their reviews and had released their respective reports. The Board Review Committee concurred in the substance of the Management Task Force Report. The Board Review Committee’s Report sets forth recommendations relating to the Board’s oversight of the Firm’s risk management processes, all of which have been approved by the full Board of Directors and have

JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement 11

been, or are in the process of being, implemented. The reports are available on the Firm’s Website at www.jpmorganchase.com and are discussed in the Firm’s annual report.

The following outlines the Board’s ongoing role in risk oversight:

• Risk appetite — The Firm employs a formalized risk appetite framework to clearly link risk appetite and return targets, controls and capital management.

— The CEO is responsible for setting the overall risk appetite for the Firm, and the line of business (“LOB”) CEOs are responsible for setting the risk appetite for their respective LOBs subject to approval by the CEO.

— The Risk Policy Committee approves the risk appetite policy on behalf of the entire Board of Directors.

• Risk management framework — The Firm’s risk governance structure starts with each line of business being responsible for managing its own risks, with its own risk committee and a chief risk officer. Overlaying the line of business risk management are corporate functions with risk management-related responsibilities.

— Risk Management operates independently to provide oversight of firmwide risk management and controls, and is headed by the Firm’s Chief Risk Officer, who is a member of the Firm’s Operating Committee and reports to the CEO and is accountable to the Board of Directors, primarily through the Board’s Risk Policy Committee.

— The Chief Investment Office and Corporate Treasury are responsible for managing the Firm’s liquidity, interest rate and foreign exchange risk, and other structural risks.

— Legal has oversight for legal risk and Compliance has oversight for compliance risk.

— Each LOB has a risk committee which includes in its mandate oversight of the reputational risks in its business.

• Board oversight — The Board of Directors exercises its oversight of risk management principally through the Board’s Risk Policy Committee and Audit Committee.

— The Risk Policy Committee provides oversight of the CEO’s and senior management’s responsibilities to: assess and manage the Firm’s credit risk, market risk, structural interest rate risk, investment risk, liquidity risk, fiduciary risk and model risk; ensure that there is in place an effective system reasonably designed to evaluate and control such risk throughout the Firm; and manage capital and liquidity planning and analysis.

— The Audit Committee provides oversight of management’s responsibilities to assure that there is in place an effective system of controls reasonably designed to safeguard the assets and income of the Firm, assure the integrity of the Firm’s financial statements, and maintain compliance with the Firm’s ethical standards, policies, plans and procedures, and with laws and regulations.

— The Compensation Committee is responsible for reviewing the Firm’s compensation practices and the relationship among risk, risk management and compensation in light of the Firm’s objectives.

— Each of the committees oversees reputation risk issues within its scope of responsibility.

— The Board of Directors also reviews selected risk topics directly as circumstances warrant.

Shareholder outreach — We recognize the importance of shareholder communications to help our investors understand our performance and strategies. We reach out to shareholders in many different ways, including through quarterly earnings presentations, SEC filings, web communications, and investor meetings. In addition, our senior executives engage major institutional shareholders as part of a twice-annual outreach program to invite comments on governance matters, executive compensation, and shareholder proposals. We meet throughout the year with additional shareholders and organizations interested in our practices.

Special shareholder meetings and action by written consent — The Firm’s By-laws permit shareholders holding at least 20% of the outstanding shares of common stock (net of hedges) to call special meetings. The Board is proposing for shareholder approval an amendment to the Firm’s Certificate of Incorporation that would permit shareholders to act by written consent on terms intended to be substantially similar to the terms applicable to call special meetings. See page 41.

Code of Conduct and Code of Ethics for Finance Professionals — The JPMorgan Chase Code of Conduct is a collection of rules and policy statements governing employees’ conduct in relation to the Firm’s business. In addition, the Firm has a Code of Ethics for Finance Professionals that applies to the CEO, President, Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), Chief Accounting Officer, and to all other professionals of the Firm worldwide serving in a finance, accounting, corporate treasury, tax or investor relations role. The purpose of the Code of Ethics for Finance Professionals is to promote honest and ethical conduct and compliance with the law, particularly as related to the

12 JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement

maintenance of the Firm’s financial books and records and the preparation of its financial statements. The Firm provides a Code Reporting Hotline operated by an independent third party, through which employees can report suspected violations of the Code of Conduct or other policies.

Political contributions and legislative lobbying — We believe that it is in the shareholders’ best interests for the Firm to be an effective participant in the legislative and regulatory process and that governance and transparency are important components of our process. The Firm supports its interests in the political arena in a variety of ways. Our philosophy, policies and disclosures concerning political contributions and legislative lobbying, as well as the compliance procedures and oversight we have in place, reflect our commitment to civic participation and transparency. These are described in our Political Activities Statement which can be found on our public Website at www.jpmorganchase.com under Governance.

The Firm discloses all contributions made by its affiliated political action committees or PACs (funded entirely by voluntary contributions from the Firm’s employees) to candidates for political office and to 527 organizations on our Website. The Firm may from time to time support state ballot initiatives and broad-based groups organized under Section 527 of the Internal Revenue Code. Direct contributions to 527 groups are not made to support the election of any candidate or for the purpose of express advocacy. The Firm belongs to a number of trade associations representing the interests of both the financial services industry and the broader business community. We voluntarily report on our Website such contributions to 527 groups and state ballot initiatives, and the principal trade associations to which we belong.

Board communications — Shareholders and interested parties who wish to contact any Board member or committee chair, the Presiding Director, or the independent directors as a group, may mail correspondence to: JPMorgan Chase & Co., Attention (name of Board member(s)), Office of the Secretary, 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10017 or e-mail the Office of the Secretary at corporate.secretary@jpmchase.com.

Political Activities Statement, as well as the Firm’s By-laws and charters of our principal Board committees, can be found on our Website at www.jpmorganchase.com under Governance, which is under the About Us tab. These documents will also be made available to any shareholder who requests them by writing to the Secretary at: JPMorgan Chase & Co., Office of the Secretary, 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10017.

Director compensation

Annual compensation — The Board believes it is desirable that a significant portion of director compensation be linked to the Firm’s common stock, and the Board’s total compensation includes approximately one-third cash and two-thirds stock-based compensation. In 2012, each non-management director received an annual cash retainer of $75,000 and an annual grant, made when annual employee incentive compensation was paid, of deferred stock units valued at $170,000 on the date of grant. The director retainer and annual grant amounts have not changed since 2003.

Each deferred stock unit represents the right to receive one share of the Firm’s common stock and dividend equivalents payable in deferred stock units for any dividends paid. Deferred stock units have no voting rights. In January of the year immediately following a director’s termination of service, deferred stock units are distributed in shares of the Firm’s common stock in either a lump sum or in annual installments for up to 15 years as elected by the director.

Each director who is a member of the Audit Committee receives an additional annual cash retainer of $10,000. Each chair of a board committee receives an additional retainer of $15,000 per year. Directors who are officers of the Firm do not receive any fees for their service as directors.

The following table summarizes annual compensation for non-management directors for 2012.

Compensation	Amount ($)
Board retainer	$	75,000
Committee chair retainer	15,000
Audit Committee member retainer	10,000
Deferred stock unit grant	170,000

JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement 13

Going forward, the Presiding Director will receive an additional cash retainer of $30,000 per year.

The Board may periodically request directors to serve on compliance-related or other committees which are not one of the Board’s principal committees or to serve on the board of directors of a subsidiary of the Firm. Any compensation for such service is included in the below Director compensation table.

Stock ownership guidelines — As stated in the Corporate Governance Principles, directors pledge that, for as long as they serve, they will retain all shares of the Firm’s common stock purchased on the open market or received pursuant to their service as a board member.

Deferred compensation — Each year non-management directors may elect to defer all or part of their cash compensation. A director’s right to receive future payments under any deferred compensation arrangement is an unsecured claim against JPMorgan Chase’s general assets. Cash amounts may be deferred into various investment equivalents, including deferred stock units.

Compensation principles and practices

Compensation determinations are guided by the JPMorgan Chase Compensation Principles and Practices. As described in this section and in Appendix C, these principles include:

• Maintaining strong governance: Independent Board oversight of the Firm’s compensation principles and practices and their implementation

• Attracting and retaining top talent: A recognition that competitive and reasonable compensation helps attract and retain the high quality people necessary to grow and sustain our businesses

• Tying compensation to performance:

◦ A focus on the qualitative as well as the quantitative performance of the individual employee, the relevant line of business or function and the Firm as a whole

◦ A focus on multi-year, long-term, risk-adjusted performance and rewarding behavior that generates sustained value for the Firm through business cycles

◦ Performance assessments that are broad-based and balanced, including an emphasis on teamwork and a “shared success” culture

• Aligning with shareholder interests:

◦ A significant stock component (with deferred vesting) for shareholder alignment and retention of top talent

◦ Very strict limits or prohibitions on executive perquisites, special executive retirement severance plans, and no golden parachutes

• Integrating risk and compensation:

◦ Input into compensation determinations by risk and control functions

◦ Although awards are made with the expectation that they will vest in accordance with their terms, all awards contain strong recovery provisions, and additional risk-related recovery provisions apply to the Operating Committee, the Firm’s most senior management group, and to a group of senior employees we refer to as Tier 1 employees with primary responsibility for risk positions, credit decisions, finance, controls and risk management

◦ Shares received by Operating Committee members are subject to robust retention requirements and a prohibition on hedging

Compensation decisions for Named Executive Officers

Pay for performance — The Compensation & Management Development Committee uses its business judgment to determine the compensation of the CEO and approve compensation for other members of the Operating Committee, focusing on multi-year results and a qualitative and quantitative view of their total contribution.

• As Chairman and CEO, Mr. Dimon is responsible for guiding the Firm’s financial performance and growth, its strategic and operational priorities, risk and control management, and management development and succession planning. Mr. Dimon reviews the priorities for the Firm with the Board of Directors and, in consultation with the Compensation & Management Development Committee and the Board, establishes the priorities for each LOB CEO annually, which are the priorities of the businesses they lead. Heads of functions also review and establish their priorities with the CEO.

• Mr. Dimon discusses with the Compensation & Management Development Committee his assessment of the performance of each other member of the Operating Committee with respect to individual contributions, risk and control management and business or function performance, as well as overall Firm performance. Mr. Dimon makes compensation recommendations to the Compensation & Management Development Committee for their consideration as part of their approval process.

• Business-specific objectives are evaluated at various points during the year, including during the budget process and monthly business reviews. Each of our businesses reviews its priorities with investors at our annual Investor Day, held most recently on February 26, 2013. Each LOB CEO also reviews 2012 results and the outlook for the future in letters in the Annual Report. We recommend reading those letters and the Chairman’s letter for a fuller

18 JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement

understanding of the priorities and performance of the Firm and its businesses. Appendix E is a summary of firmwide and LOB priorities and progress.

James Dimon: Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. As announced on January 16, 2013, the Board approved 2012 total compensation for Jamie Dimon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, in the amount of $11.5 million, down 50% from the prior year. Compensation included salary of $1.5 million (flat with the prior year) and incentive compensation of $10 million, all in the form of restricted stock units (RSUs) (down 53.5% from the prior year). The RSUs vest over a period of three years, half after two years and the other half after three years. The Board also deferred, for a period of up to 18 months (i.e., up to July 22, 2014), vesting on options in the form of stock appreciation rights (SARs) it had granted Mr. Dimon in January 2008.

In making its compensation determinations, the Board focused on the long-term, as well as the annual, performance of the Firm and on the entire range of Mr. Dimon’s responsibilities, and took into consideration both the continued strong performance of the Firm and the CIO losses, including Mr. Dimon’s responsibility as the Firm’s Chief Executive Officer.

Mr. Dimon’s leadership and management abilities are reflected in the continued strong performance of the Firm (including progress on its long-term strategic priorities, actual financial results, financial performance relative to competitors and qualitative factors), as reflected in the:

• Strength of the Firm’s 2012 operating results and financial performance

• Third consecutive year of record net earnings and 15% ROTCE

• Record net earnings of $21.3 billion, a 12% increase from 2011

• ROE of 11%

• Record EPS of $5.20 per share, a 16% increase from 2011

• Common share price increase by 32% in 2012; total return with dividends of 36%

• Strong performance of the Firm relative to key competitors

• Uninterrupted record of delivering annual and quarterly net income throughout the financial crisis, subsequent recession, and CIO losses

• Maintenance of a fortress balance sheet

• Continued investment in organic growth and the strengthening of the Firm’s major businesses

Mr. Dimon also has strengthened the foundation of the Firm’s future in leading a reorganization of the Firm’s businesses around customer needs by integrating the Chase consumer businesses under the Consumer & Community Banking line of business and the J.P. Morgan Investment Bank and Treasury & Securities Services wholesale lines of business under the Corporate & Investment Bank line of business. As part of this reorganization, he also has helped further develop the succession of a new generation of senior management capable of leading the Firm’s businesses and key functions in the future.

With respect to the losses incurred in CIO, the Board views the CIO losses as a serious mistake by the Firm, but believes that one of the marks of a successful company is how it addresses its mistakes, learns from them and implements meaningful remedial actions. As Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Dimon bears ultimate responsibility for the failures that led to the losses in CIO and has accepted responsibility for such failures. Importantly, once Mr. Dimon became aware of the seriousness of the issues presented by CIO, he responded forcefully by directing a thorough review and an extensive program of remediation. The Firm:

• Strengthened the risk and control groups responsible for CIO

• Formed the Management Task Force to review and address the circumstances related to the CIO losses

• Has implemented, or is in the process of implementing, the remedial enhancements noted in the Management Task Force Report and the recommended improvements set forth in the Board Review Committee Report

JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement 19

With respect to compensation and personnel actions as a result of CIO, the Firm took the following actions, all of which were reviewed with the Board:

• The compensation actions for the Chief Executive Officer and the former Chief Financial Officer as detailed in this section and approved by the Board

• Replaced the management team responsible for the losses

• Invoked comprehensive clawbacks of previously granted outstanding awards and/or repayment of previously vested awards subject to clawbacks for those with primary responsibility (over $100 million recaptured)

• For a group of employees deemed to have been closely associated with CIO events, reduced or eliminated compensation that otherwise would have been awarded by an aggregate of approximately 60%

• A number of employees were permitted to resign or reassigned to other positions deemed to be more appropriate and experienced significant reductions in compensation

Other Named Executive Officers. The following provides highlights of performance considered in compensation determinations for the NEOs other than Mr. Dimon. These compensation determinations reflect recognition of substantial progress in meeting the objectives of the LOBs and the Firm as a whole, and also reflect the losses in the CIO.

Douglas Braunstein: Vice Chairman (Former Chief Financial Officer). Mr. Braunstein became CFO in June 2010 and remained in that role until December 31, 2012, after which he became Vice Chairman. Prior to becoming CFO, Mr. Braunstein led Investment Banking coverage for the Americas and held other senior roles in the Investment Bank. In his new role, Mr. Braunstein will focus on serving top clients of the Firm, drawing on his years of experience and his experience in key client coverage roles in the Investment Bank.

In making its compensation determination, the Compensation & Management Development Committee focused on the entire range of Mr. Braunstein’s responsibilities. As he had in the prior year, during 2012 Mr. Braunstein continued to further the Firm’s fundamental objectives of maintaining strong financial discipline, guarding safety and soundness, liquidity management, assisting in managing the Firm’s interaction with regulatory and supervisory authorities, and collaborating with the LOBs to drive business performance, growth, efficiency and returns.

With respect to the losses incurred in CIO, in July 2012 the Firm reported that it had determined that a material weakness existed in its internal controls over financial reporting at March 31, 2012, related to the valuation control function for the synthetic credit portfolio managed by CIO during the first quarter of 2012. The control deficiency was closed out by September 30, 2012. The Management Task Force Report also noted weaknesses in the performance of the CIO Finance organization in the events leading up to the CIO losses. The Finance organization, which was led by Mr. Braunstein, was responsible for such weaknesses.

In consideration of the above, the Committee approved the following compensation:

• $750,000 in base salary, no increase in 2012 or for 2013

• A $2.125 million cash incentive for 2012, compared to $2.9 million for 2011

• An RSU award of $2.125 million, compared to $4.35 million for 2011

• No SARs, compared to $1.5 million in SARs for 2011

Mary Callahan Erdoes: CEO Asset Management. Ms. Erdoes has been Chief Executive Officer of Asset Management (AM) since 2009. In 2012, Ms. Erdoes continued a focus on priorities that included maintaining strong financial and investment performance, growing AM’s client franchise, investing in technology to support growth and achieve efficiencies, maintaining strong risk controls, and developing and retaining talent.

• Three important financial measures for Asset Management are revenue growth, pretax earnings margin and ROE.

◦ For 2012, AM achieved record revenues of $9.9 billion, a 4% increase over 2011 and the fourth consecutive year of growth.

◦ AM achieved an ROE of 24% and a pretax earnings margin of 28%.

• At the end of 2012, assets under management (“AUM”) in the top two fund quartiles were 67%, 74% and 76%, respectively, over a 1-, 3- and 5-year time period.

• AM showed strong growth in long-term AUM flows, loan balances and deposit balances.

• Continued investments were made in the technology infrastructure to support both the growth and control agendas.

20 JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement

In consideration of the above, the Committee approved the following compensation:

• $750,000 in base salary, no increase in 2012 or for 2013

• A $4.9 million cash incentive for 2012, compared to $4.7 million for 2011

• An RSU award of $7.35 million, compared to $7.05 million for 2011

• A SAR award of $2.0 million, unchanged from 2011

Daniel Pinto: Co-CEO Corporate & Investment Bank. Mr. Pinto became Co-Chief Executive Officer of the Corporate & Investment Bank (“CIB”) in July 2012 and has been Chief Executive Officer of Europe, the Middle East and Africa since June 2011. He had been head or co-head of the Investment Bank Global Fixed Income business (now part of Corporate & Investment Bank) from November 2009 until July 2012. He was Global Head of Emerging Markets from 2006 until 2009, and was also responsible for the Global Credit Trading & Syndicate business from 2008 until 2009.

In 2012, the Corporate & Investment Bank was created from the combination of the heritage Investment Bank and Treasury Services & Securities businesses and has outlined a number of strategic priorities that reflect the continuation of the agenda of each business as well as several new priorities that are driven by the business combination. These include international expansion, particularly for the Global Corporate Bank and Treasury Services solutions, global Prime Brokerage build-out, electronic trading investments, and optimizing its client coverage model across both Banking and Markets & Investor Services. In addition, the CIB will continue to be focused on expense discipline and prudent management of its risk-weighted assets and capital. As Co-CEO of CIB, Mr. Pinto has played a strategic role in integrating the business and setting the course for achieving CIB’s multi-year priorities. Among the achievements in 2012 for CIB were the following:

• Delivered net income of $8.4 billion on revenue of $34.3 billion.

• Helped clients raise $500 billion of debt and equity capital

• Led the market in arranging $650 billion of loans and commitments for clients

• Ranked #1 in Global IB Fees and #1 in Fixed Income Markets revenue

• Ranked #1 in All American Fixed Income and Equity Research

• #1 USD wire clearer with 20% share of Fed and CHIPS

• Record in Assets under Custody of $18.8 trillion, up 12% from the prior year

• Continuing to extend the Firm’s international presence and execute our strategic technology reengineering program

In consideration of the above, the Committee approved the following compensation with the terms and composition structured to reflect applicable U.K. standards as described at page 23:

• $750,000 in base salary, no increase in 2012 or for 2013

• An $8.125 million cash incentive for 2012

• An RSU award of $7.125 million

• A SAR award of $1.0 million

Matthew Zames: Co-Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Zames demonstrated leadership and risk management discipline in 2012. He held three key roles this year, prior to which he had served with distinction in a number of senior Investment Banking management roles. First, from January to May 2012, he was the head of Mortgage Banking Capital Markets, which he continues to lead, and co-head of Global Fixed Income in the Investment Bank.

• Fixed Income Markets reported revenue of $5.0 billion in the first quarter of 2012, which ranked #1 in revenue versus its top 10 peers

• Mortgage Capital Markets distributed more than $160 billion of closed loan volume to investors in support of record Mortgage Banking production; 2012 pretax income of $3.6 billion

• Led the acquisition of a $71.4 billion mortgage servicing portfolio

In May of 2012, Mr. Dimon asked Mr. Zames to become the Chief Investment Officer of the Firm following trading losses in CIO. Mr. Zames led the successful de-risking of the Synthetic Credit Portfolio and refocused CIO on its core mandate of conservative investing of its portfolio and asset and liability management. He brought in a new, highly

JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement 21

experienced CIO management team, including a Chief Risk Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Controller, and head of Europe.

In mid-July 2012, with CIO repositioned, Mr. Zames was promoted to a newly created role of Co-Chief Operating Officer. In addition to CIO and Mortgage Banking Capital Markets, he oversees Treasury & Funding, Strategy, One Equity Partners, Regulatory Affairs and joint management of Oversight & Controls and Compliance across the Firm. As Co-Chief Operating Officer, he also contributes to a variety of key firmwide initiatives. In addition to his impact on CIO and in Mortgage Capital Markets, his accomplishments as Co-Chief Operating Officer include:

• Centralizing the Firm’s Controls and Compliance organization to respond to incoming regulatory inquiries and develop a strong control environment across the Firm

• Leading a firmwide initiative to reduce expenses

• Hiring new talent within the Chief Operating Office

In consideration of the above, the Committee approved the following compensation:

• $750,000 in base salary, no increase in 2012 or for 2013

• A $6.1 million cash incentive for 2012

• An RSU award of $9.15 million

• A SAR award of $1.0 million

1 Salary reflects the annualized amounts as of December 31 for each year.

2 For all Named Executive Officers, except Mr. Pinto, the RSUs granted for 2012 vest in two equal installments on January 13, 2015 and January 13, 2016. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of common stock on the vesting date and non-preferential dividend equivalents, payable in cash, equal to any dividends paid during the vesting period. RSUs have no voting rights. Additional conditions applicable to these awards are described at page 28. For Mr. Pinto, see note 5 to this table.

3 The Firm awarded SARs to the Named Executive Officers, effective January 17, 2013, with an exercise price of $46.58. The SARs will become exercisable 20% per year over the five-year period from January 17, 2013. All shares obtained upon exercise must be held until the fifth year after grant and are subject to the Firm’s stock retention requirement. The SARs had a grant date fair value of $9.56 per SAR. Assumptions under the Black-Scholes valuation model were used to determine grant date fair value. Additional conditions applicable to these awards are described at page 28.

4 Mr. Pinto and Mr. Zames were not Named Executive Officers in either 2011 or 2010.

5 For Mr. Pinto, the terms and composition of his compensation reflects applicable U.K. standards. Under rules applicable in the U.K., a portion (60%) of Mr. Pinto’s cash bonus shown in this table was deferred, with half of the deferred amount payable at the end of 18 months and the balance payable at the end of three years. Such mandatory deferral is subject to terms and conditions similar to those for RSUs. Until paid, such amounts accrue interest. For Mr. Pinto, $3,250,000 of the RSUs granted for 2012 vest immediately and the balance vests in two equal installments, on July 25, 2014, and January 13, 2016. All of such RSUs must be held for not less than six months following vesting.

The above table is presented to show how the Compensation & Management Development Committee viewed compensation actions, but it differs substantially from the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”) required by the SEC and is not a substitute for the information required by the SCT at page 30.

The SCT shows compensation information in a format required by the SEC. There are two principal differences between the SCT and the above table:

• The Firm grants both cash and equity incentive compensation after the earnings for a performance year have been announced. In both the above table and the SCT, cash incentive compensation granted in 2013 for 2012 performance is shown as 2012 compensation. The above table treats equity awards similarly, so that equity awards granted in 2013 for 2012 performance are shown as 2012 compensation. The SCT does not follow this treatment and instead reports the value of equity awards in the year in which they are made. As a result, equity awards granted in 2013 for 2012 performance are shown in the above table as 2012 compensation, but the SCT reports for 2012 the value of equity awards granted in 2012 in respect of 2011 performance.

• The SCT reports the change in pension value and nonqualified deferred compensation earnings and all other compensation. These amounts are not shown above.

JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement 23

Advisory resolution to approve executive compensation

Proposal 3 is an annual advisory resolution to approve executive compensation, and the Board recommends that shareholders vote for approval of this resolution. Shareholders approved similar resolutions in 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 by votes of 97%, 96%, 73% and 92%, respectively, in each case as a percentage of shares cast including abstentions. We believe the result in 2011 was attributable to a recommendation by a proxy advisory firm that cited as a key reason for its recommendation the discretionary nature of the Firm’s executive compensation program.

The Compensation & Management Development Committee has considered making a portion of incentive awards for the CEO and other members of the Operating Committee formulaic, based on pre-set targets, but believes that:

• Its current approach provides a disciplined assessment of multi-year priorities and achievements and has resulted in proper alignment of compensation and performance, and

• There is a greater risk of misaligning incentives and creating unintended consequences with a formulaic approach than the current approach of carefully considering a broader spectrum of factors relative to overall performance. We believe history has shown there are as many disadvantages to shareholders as advantages to formulaic pay plans.

Although awards are not made on a formulaic basis, starting in 2012, the Firm added to the terms of RSU awards to members of the Operating Committee and other Tier 1 employees certain protection-based vesting conditions described at page 28 that add specific numerical thresholds that will result in formal compensation reviews and are designed to be effective in the event of material losses or earnings substantially below the Firm’s potential.

The Compensation & Management Development Committee further notes that the compensation decisions made for 2012 in respect of the Firm’s CEO and CFO illustrate the effectiveness of the Firm’s disciplined but not formulaic process of assessment based on the performance of the individual employee, relevant line of business or function and the Firm as a whole. In each case, significant compensation action was taken despite the very strong results of each of the Firm’s lines of business and for the Firm as a whole because of the events associated with the losses in the CIO.

The Firm conducts twice-annual outreach discussions with its major shareholders on compensation and other governance matters and considers shareholder views expressed in those discussions as well as the results of the say on pay and other shareholder input.

Compensation framework

Corporate governance and Board oversight -JPMorgan Chase’s compensation framework is supported by strong corporate governance and board oversight.

• The Board of Directors, through the Compensation & Management Development Committee, oversees our compensation programs, including the overall incentive pools, percentage paid in cash and stock, and the equity award terms and conditions.

• The Compensation & Management Development Committee approves compensation for members of the Operating Committee, and for the CEO makes a recommendation to the Board for its ratification. No member of the Operating Committee other than the CEO (as described at page 18) has a role in making a recommendation to the Compensation & Management Development Committee as to the compensation of any member of the Operating Committee.

• In addition to approving compensation for Operating Committee members, the Compensation & Management Development Committee approves the formula, pool calculation and performance goals for the shareholder-approved Key Executive Performance Plan (“KEPP”) as required by Section 162(m)(1) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. The Compensation & Management Development Committee does not require all compensation to be awarded in a tax-deductible manner, but it is their intent to do so when consistent with overall corporate objectives.

• The Compensation & Management Development Committee also reviews line of business total incentive accruals versus performance throughout the year, approves final aggregate incentive funding, and approves total equity grants under the Firm’s long-term incentive plan and the terms and conditions for each type of award.

• The Compensation & Management Development Committee also reviews the compensation of a number of highly compensated individuals globally, such as employees in the U.K. covered by regulations of the Financial Services

24 JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement

Authority, and employees in the U.S. covered by guidance of the Federal Reserve as part of seeking to ensure consistency with applicable regulatory standards in the principal jurisdictions in which we operate.

• The Compensation & Management Development Committee each year reviews the Firm’s compensation programs with the Chief Risk Officer with the objective of ensuring that such compensation programs do not encourage unnecessary or excessive risk-taking. The Compensation & Management Development Committee also meets at least annually with one or more members of the Risk Policy Committee.

• The Compensation & Management Development Committee has delegated authority to the Head of Human Resources Officer to administer and amend the compensation and benefits programs.

• Internal Audit conducts regular, independent audits of the Firm’s compliance with its established policies and controls and applicable regulatory requirements regarding incentive compensation management. Audit findings are reported to appropriate levels of management, and all adversely-rated audits are reported to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

Relevant competitor framework -The Compensation & Management Development Committee views benchmarking against comparison groups to compare our compensation to the market, to stay abreast of best practices, to be competitive and to use these market factors to inform, but not override, the focus on pay for performance and internal equity.

• The Compensation & Management Development Committee reviews and selects peer companies that either directly compete with us for business and/or talent or are global organizations in other industries with scope, size or other business and financial characteristics similar to JPMorgan Chase.

• The Compensation & Management Development Committee does not target or benchmark compensation at any specific percentile or level paid by other companies, but rather considers compensation, including actual compensation levels typically available from public data provided by Human Resources management, among other factors when making determinations.

• Because we view our executive officers as highly talented executives capable of rotating among the leadership positions of our businesses and key functions, we also place importance on the internal pay relationships among members of our Operating Committee.

• The Compensation & Management Development Committee and Board of Directors did not engage the services of a compensation consultant in 2012; rather, the Firm’s Human Resources department provides the Compensation & Management Development Committee with both internal and external compensation data publicly available and from outside consultants, and updates throughout the year.

As part of benchmarking we consider companies in two different peer frames:

Primary, industry specific, competitor group:
American Express	Goldman Sachs
Bank of America	Morgan Stanley
Citigroup	Wells Fargo

General industry global organizations:
Altria	GE	Pfizer
Boeing	Hewlett-Packard	Procter & Gamble
Chevron	IBM	Time Warner
Cisco	Johnson & Johnson	United Technologies
Comcast	Merck	Walmart
Disney	Oracle	3M
ExxonMobil	Pepsico

Due to our business model and diverse operations of our various lines of business, other firms considered for comparison by our LOBs are Barclays, BNY Mellon, Capital One Financial, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, HSBC, BlackRock and UBS.

JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement 25

Integrated risk, compensation and financial management framework – We approach our incentive compensation arrangements through an integrated risk, compensation and financial management framework to encourage a culture of risk awareness and personal accountability.

Our approach to financial measurement is based on two key principles:

• Earnings recognition, where appropriate, reflects the inherent risks of positions taken to generate profits.

• All LOBs are measured with earnings and balance sheets as though they were stand-alone companies. This approach is reflected in arms-length agreements and market-based pricing for revenue sharing among businesses, funds transfer pricing, expense allocations and capital allocations.

Integrating risk with the compensation framework – We use balancing mechanisms, such as risk-adjusted metrics, deferrals, clawbacks and multi-year year vesting on long-term incentives to seek to ensure that compensation considers the relationship of near-term rewards to longer-term risks.

• The use of risk-adjusted financial results in compensation arrangements seeks to ensure that longer-term risks are first quantified and then applied in current-year incentives. Therefore for certain risk, credit and other senior employees, incentive compensation in the current year would be appropriately affected by a number of factors, such as capital charges, valuation adjustments, reserving, and other factors resulting from the consideration of long-term risks.

• Stringent recovery provisions are in place for incentive awards (cash and equity incentive compensation).

As part of our control processes, compensation of risk and control professionals is not predominantly based on the performance of the business they oversee.

Pay mix – Our compensation structure is designed to contribute to the achievement of the Firm’s short-term and long-term strategic and operational objectives, while avoiding excessive risk-taking inconsistent with the Firm’s risk management strategy. This is accomplished in part through a balanced total compensation program comprised of a mix of fixed pay (base salary) and variable pay in the form of cash incentives and long-term, equity-based incentives that vest over time. Incentives are split between cash and deferred equity. The percentage of equity being deferred and awarded is higher for more highly compensated employees, thus increasing the aggregate value subject to the continued performance of the Firm’s stock.

• We also believe that providing the appropriate level of salary and annual cash incentive is important in ensuring that our senior officers are not overly focused on the short-term performance of our stock.

• The majority of compensation plans at JPMorgan Chase address potential timing conflicts by including payment deferral features. Awards that are deferred into equity have multi-year vesting. By staggering the vesting of equity awards over time, the interests of employees to build long-term, sustainable performance (i.e., quality earnings) are better aligned with the long-term interests of both customers and shareholders.

Equity grant practices– Equity grants are awarded as part of the annual compensation process and as part of employment offers for new hires.

• Equity-based incentives for the majority of senior managers are granted in the form of RSUs and SARs.

• RSU grants generally vest over three years, 50% after two years and 50% after three years or in accordance with applicable U.K. standards. RSUs carry no voting rights; however, dividend equivalents are paid on the RSUs at the time actual dividends are paid on shares of JPMorgan Chase common stock.

• SARs become exercisable 20% per year over five years and any shares received upon exercise must be held for not less than five years from the grant date.

• The grant price is not less than the average of the high and the low prices of JPMorgan Chase common stock on the grant date.

• Grants made as part of the annual compensation process are generally awarded in January after earnings are released.

• The Firm does not grant options with restoration rights and prohibits repricing of stock options and SARs.

Required share retention – Share retention policies apply to our directors and members of the Operating Committee.

• Directors pledge to retain all shares of JPMorgan Chase while they serve as a director.

• Operating Committee members are expected to establish and maintain a significant level of direct ownership. For Mr. Dimon and other members of the Operating Committee, after-tax shares they receive from equity-based

26 JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement

awards, including options, are subject to a 75% retention requirement during the first 10 years from grant of the award and 50% thereafter. Half of unvested RSUs (the approximate after tax-equivalent) are included as part of both the ownership and the retention calculation.

• Executives are subject to these retention requirements during their service on the Operating Committee; any exceptions are subject to approval by the General Counsel.

• The Firm’s percentage retention requirements result in NEOs being required to hold shares that have a value equal to a substantial multiple of their salaries. For Mr. Dimon, his share ownership, as shown in the Security Ownership table at page 15, was substantially in excess of his required retention as of that date and his required retention was more than 20 times his base salary.

No hedging –

• Operating Committee members and Directors: No hedging of the economic risk of their ownership of our shares is permitted, even for shares owned outright. No short sales, no hedging of unvested RSUs or unexercised options or SARs, and no hedging of deferred compensation.

• Other employees: No short sales, no hedging of unvested RSUs or unexercised options or SARs, and no hedging of deferred compensation. If they own shares outright and can sell them, they are permitted to hedge them, subject to compliance with window period policies that restrict transactions in JPMorgan Chase’s shares pending the release of earnings and applicable preclearance rules.

Long-standing recovery provisions – Incentive awards are intended and expected to vestin accordance with their terms but we have strong recovery provisions that would permit recovery of incentive compensation awards in appropriate circumstances. We retain the right to reduce current year incentives to redress any prior imbalance that we have subsequently determined to have existed, and a clawback review or other recovery mechanism may be initiated as a result of a material restatement of earnings or by acts or omissions of employees as outlined below, including a failure to supervise in appropriate circumstances.Beyond the recovery provisions that apply to all employees, additional provisions apply to the Operating Committee and to other Tier 1 employees.

• The Firm may seek repayment of cash and equity incentive compensation in the event of a material restatement of the Firm’s financial results for the relevant period under our recoupment policy adopted in 2006.

• Equity awards are subject to the Firm’s right to cancel an unvested or unexercised award, and to require repayment of the value of certain shares distributed under awards already vested if:

— the employee is terminated for cause or could have been terminated for cause,

— the employee engages in conduct that causes material financial or reputational harm,

— the Firm determines that the award was based on materially inaccurate performance metrics,

— the award was based on a material misrepresentation by the employee, or

— for members of the Operating Committee and Tier 1 employees, such employees improperly or with gross negligence fail to identify, raise, or assess, in a timely manner and as reasonably expected, risks and/or concerns with respect to risks material to the Firm or its business activities.

Issues that may give rise to recovery determinations may be raised at any time, including in meetings of the Firm's risk committees, annual assessments of employee performance and when Tier I employees resign or their employment is terminated by the Firm. A formal, discretionary compensation review would occur following a determination that the cause and materiality of a risk related loss, issue or other facts and circumstances warranted such a review, and in the circumstances set forth under the protection-based vesting provisions described below. The Compensation & Management Development Committee is responsible for determinations with respect to Operating Committee members (subject to ratification by the Board of Directors for determinations with respect to the CEO) and has delegated authority for determinations with respect to other employees to the Director of Human Resources. The Director of Human Resources would make such determinations based on reviews and recommendations made by a committee generally composed of the Firm's senior Risk, Human Resources, Legal and Financial officers and the chief executive officer of the line of business for which the review was undertaken.

JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement 27

Protection-based vesting – In 2012, the Firm added provisions in our equity awards for the Operating Committee and other Tier 1 employees that we call protection-based vesting. These provisions were designed to meet requirements of our regulators and to be effective in the event of material losses or earnings substantially below the Firm’s potential that could create substantial financial risk. In 2013, the Firm increased the applicability of the protection-based vesting based on Cumulative Return on Tangible Common Equity, as described below, from 50% to 100% of the RSUs that are scheduled to vest at the end of three years for members of the Operating Committee.

For members of the Operating Committee, up to a combined total of 50% of RSUs granted in 2013 (“at risk RSUs”) may be cancelled if:

(i)  The CEO determines that cancellation of all or portion of at risk RSUs is appropriate in light of any one or a combination of the following factors:

• The executive’s performance in relation to the priorities for the executive’s position, or the Firm’s performance in relation to the priorities for which the executive shares responsibility as a member of the Operating Committee, have been unsatisfactory for a sustained period of time (the “performance determination condition”)

• Annual pre-provision net income reported at the Firm level is negative for any calendar year ending during the vesting period

• Awards granted to participants in a Line of Business, for which the executive exercises, or during the vesting period exercised direct or indirect responsibility, were in whole or in part cancelled because the Line of Business did not meet its annual Line of Business Financial Threshold ¹ 

(ii)  To the extent not cancelled pursuant to the above circumstances, then any remaining at risk RSUs scheduled to vest on January 13, 2016 will be cancelled, absent extraordinary circumstances, if the Firm does not meet a 15% Cumulative Return on Tangible Common Equity over the period 2013, 2014 and 2015 (the sum of the Firm’s reported net income for all three years, divided by reported year-end tangible equity averaged over the three years).

For SARs granted in 2013, unexercisable SARs may be cancelled or deferred if the CEO determines that such action is appropriate under the above performance determination condition. Any determination with respect to these RSU and SAR provisions is subject to ratification by (and for an award to the CEO would be made by) the Compensation and Management Development Committee.

In addition to formal recovery provisions and protection-based vesting, the Compensation & Management Development Committee believes that inappropriate risk-taking is also discouraged by management and compensation practices we have long employed. Employee performance is subject to frequent assessment, and we retain the flexibility to reduce current year incentives. Where warranted, individuals may be terminated for cause and may be required to forfeit unvested awards, with certain previously distributed shares also subject to recovery.

There are no golden parachutes or special severance plans –

• No golden parachutes for any executives.

• No employment contracts other than occasional exceptions upon hire ². No change-in-control agreements.

• No special severance programs for Operating Committee members; the Firm’s policy limits severance to a maximum of 52 weeks salary based on years of service.

• Equity award terms provide that awards continue to vest on the original schedule, without acceleration and subject to additional restrictions, for employees who have resigned and meet the Firm’s full-career eligibility requirements.

____________________

1 For the Named Executive Officers, failure to meet the annual Line of Business Financial Thresholds would be as follows:

Asset Management - annual negative pre-provision net income;

Corporate & Investment Bank (“CIB”) - annual negative pre-provision net income for CIB overall and/or annual negative revenues, excluding DVA, for any of seven specified businesses within CIB, as set forth in the executive's award agreement;

Chief Investment Office (“CIO”) - annual trading loss in the mark-to-market portfolios in excess of $1.5 billion; and in

Corporate Functions (other than CIO) - annual negative pre-provision net income of the Firm

2 Some jurisdictions outside the U.S. require that employees be provided a document that sets out the basic terms of that employment which may be referred to as an employment agreement.

28 JPMorgan Chase & Co./ 2013 Proxy Statement

There are no special executive benefits –

• No pension credits for incentives.

• No 401(k) Savings Plan matching contributions for any senior executive.

• No special medical, dental, insurance or disability benefits for executives. The higher an executive’s compensation, the higher the premiums they pay.

• No private club dues, car allowances, financial planning, tax gross-ups for benefits.

• Voluntary deferred compensation program is limited to a maximum individual contribution of $1 million annually, with a $10 million lifetime cap for cash deferrals made after 2005.

The Firm reports the cost of Mr. Dimon’s personal use of the Firm’s aircraft and cars and the cost of residential security services. The Firm requires such use as a matter of security protection for Mr. Dimon and does not view these items as special executive benefits.

Talent management, development and succession planning – As part of our resolve to focus on long-term sustained value, we look to ensure that we are developing leaders for the future. We have introduced a disciplined process of talent reviews focused on thorough assessments, enhanced executive development programs and rotations of top executives to prepare them for greater responsibility. We are committed to having a strong pipeline to deal with succession for our Operating Committee, including the CEO position. Turnover within the Operating Committee in 2012 was higher than normal due to specific succession planning and executive development objectives set by the Board several years ago, the reorganization of the Firm to better serve our customers and clients, as well as to gain operating efficiencies, and the events of the CIO.

At least annually the independent directors make an evaluation of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, normally in connection with a review of executive officer annual compensation. Succession planning is also considered at least annually by the independent directors with the Chief Executive Officer. The Compensation & Management Development Committee regularly discusses management development and provides updates to the full Board.

Compensation & Management Development Committee report

The Compensation & Management Development Committee has reviewed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and discussed that analysis with management.

Based on such review and discussion with management, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. This report is provided as of March 19, 2013, by the following independent directors, who comprise the Compensation & Management Development Committee:

Lee R. Raymond (Chairman)

Stephen B. Burke

William C. Weldon

The Compensation Discussion and Analysis is intended to describe our 2012 performance, the compensation decisions for our Named Executive Officers and the Firm’s philosophy and approach to compensation. The following tables at pages 30-36 present additional information required in accordance with SEC rules, including the Summary Compensation Table.

1 Salary reflects the actual amount paid in each year.

2 Includes amounts awarded, whether paid or deferred. Cash incentive compensation reflects compensation for the period presented, which was awarded in the following year.

3 Includes amounts awarded during the year shown. Amounts are the fair value on the grant date (or, if no grant date was established, on the award date). The Firm’s accounting for employee stock-based incentives (including assumptions used to value employee stock options and SARs) granted during the years ended December 2012, 2011 and 2010 is described in Note 10 to the Firm’s Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2012 Annual Report at pages 241–243.

4 Amounts are the aggregate change in the actuarial present value of the accumulated benefits under all defined benefit and actuarial pension plans (including supplemental plans) for the respective years shown. Amounts shown also include earnings in excess of 120% of the applicable federal rate on deferred compensation balances where the rate of return is not calculated in the same or in a similar manner as earnings on hypothetical investments available under the Firm’s qualified plans: Mr. Braunstein, $1,580,231, $1,431,889 and $1,296,173, in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

5 The All other compensation column for Mr. Dimon includes: $64,437 for personal use of aircraft; $37,113 for personal use of cars; $68,379 for the cost of residential and related security paid by the Firm; and $91 for the cost of life insurance premiums paid by the Firm (for basic life insurance coverage equal to one times salary up to a maximum of $100,000, which program covers all benefit-eligible employees).

Incremental costs are determined as follows:

• Aircraft: operating cost per flight hour for the aircraft type used, developed by an independent reference source, including fuel, fuel additives and lubricants; landing and parking fees; crew expenses; small supplies and catering; maintenance, labor and parts; engine restoration costs; and a maintenance service plan.

8 Under rules applicable in the U.K., a portion (60%) of Mr. Pinto’s cash bonus shown in this table was deferred, with half of the deferred amount payable at the end of 18 months and the balance payable at the end of three years. Such mandatory deferral is subject to terms and conditions similar to those for RSUs. Until paid, such amounts accrue interest.

1 Effective January 17, 2013, the Firm awarded RSU awards and stock-settled SARs as part of the 2012 annual incentive compensation. Because these awards were granted in 2013, they do not appear in this table, which is required to include only equity awards actually granted during 2012. These awards are reflected in the “Salary and incentive compensation” table at page 23.

2 For all Named Executive Officers except Mr. Pinto, the RSUs vest in two equal installments on January 13, 2014 and 2015. For Mr. Pinto, 84,374 RSUs vested on the grant date, 58,155 RSUs vest on July 25, 2013 and 58,155 RSUs vest on January 13, 2015; these RSUs are subject to a 6-month hold period post-vesting. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of common stock on the vesting date and non-preferential dividend equivalents, payable in cash, equal to any dividends paid during the vesting period. RSUs have no voting rights.

3 These SARs will become exercisable 20% per year over the five-year period from the date of grant. Shares resulting from exercise must be held at least five years from the grant date.
