Selected Purchase Considerations

  • PRESERVATION OF CAPITAL AT MATURITY At maturity, you will receive your initial investment in the notes back if the notes are held to maturity, regardless of the performance of the Basket. Because the notes are our senior unsecured obligations, payment of any amount at maturity is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.
  • ANNUAL INTEREST PAYMENTS — The notes offer the potential to earn annual Coupon Payments with a variable Coupon Rate that will not be less than the Minimum Coupon Rate of 0.00% per annum or greater than the Coupon Cap of 9.60% per annum. The Coupon Rate will equal the weighted average Stock Performance of the Reference Stocks on the applicable Coupon Determination Date, provided that the Coupon Rate will not be less than the Minimum Coupon Rate or greater than the Coupon Cap. For each Reference Stock, the Stock Performance on any Coupon Determination Date will be equal to (i) the Coupon Cap if the closing price of such Reference Stock has appreciated beyond the Stock Return Threshold from the pricing date to such Coupon Determination Date or (ii) the greater of the Stock Return and the Stock Return Floor for such Reference Stock if the closing price for such Reference Stock has not appreciated beyond the Stock Return Threshold or declined from the pricing date to such Coupon Determination Date. Accordingly, you will receive a Coupon Payment on a Coupon Payment Date if the closing prices of a sufficient number of the Reference Stocks have appreciated from the Pricing Date to the applicable Coupon Determination Date to offset any negative Stock Return of any other Reference Stock, each subject to the Coupon Cap and the Stock Return Floor.
  • RETURN LINKED TO AN EQUALLY WEIGHTED BASKET OF 10 REFERENCE STOCKS — The Coupon Rate of the notes is linked to the performance of an equally weighted basket, which consists of 10 Reference Stocks. These Reference Stocks are the common stocks of Amazon.com, Inc., Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, General Mills, Inc., Intel Corporation, McDonald’s Corporation, Altria Group, Inc., Newmont Mining Corporation, AT&T Inc., Wells Fargo & Company and Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.

 PS-1
  • TAX TREATMENT — You should review carefully the section entitled “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement no. 155-A-II.  Subject to the limitations described in the accompanying product supplement, and based on certain factual representations received from us, in the opinion of our special tax counsel, Sidley Austin LLP, the notes should be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as “variable rate debt instruments”. We and you, by virtue of purchasing the notes, agree to treat the notes as variable rate debt instruments. Accordingly, interest paid on the notes should generally be taxable to you as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with your regular method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In general, gain or loss realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of the notes will be capital gain or loss.

    Subject to certain assumptions and representations received from us, the discussion in this section entitled “Tax Treatment”, when read in combination with the section entitled “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement no. 155-A-II, constitutes the full opinion of Sidley Austin LLP regarding the material U.S. federal income tax treatment of owning and disposing of the notes.

Selected Risk Considerations

  • YOU MAY NOT RECEIVE COUPON PAYMENTS ON YOUR NOTES — Your only return on the notes will be the annual Coupon Payments, if any, paid over the term of the notes. If the closing prices of one or more of the Reference Stocks have declined from the pricing date to the applicable Coupon Determination Date, resulting in negative Stock Returns for such Reference Stocks, any such negative Stock Returns, although limited in their effect on your return by the Stock Return Floor, could offset entirely the positive contribution to the Coupon Rate from any other Reference Stocks that have positive Stock Returns, although limited by the Return Cap. Under these circumstances, the Coupon Rate will be equal to the Minimum Coupon Rate of 0.00% per annum and no Coupon Payment will be made on each applicable Coupon Payment Date. If the Minimum Coupon Rate applies for each of the applicable Coupon Payment Dates, over the term of the notes you will not receive any Coupon Payment over the term of the notes. At maturity, you will receive a cash payment equal to $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount note. Therefore, the return on your investment in the notes may be less than the amount that would be paid on a conventional debt security having a similar maturity issued by us or an issuer with a comparable credit rating. The Coupon Payments paid over the term of the notes may not compensate you for any loss in value due to inflation and other factors relating to the value of money over time.
  • LIMITED RETURN ON THE NOTES — The appreciation potential of the notes is limited by the Coupon Cap of 9.60% per annum. On each Coupon Determination Date, even if one or more of the Stock Returns is greater than the Stock Return Threshold, the Coupon Rate will not exceed the Coupon Cap. Moreover, the Stock Performance of each Reference Stock in the Basket is limited to the Coupon Cap, even if the Stock Return of such Reference Stock is greater than the Coupon Cap. Accordingly, your return on each Coupon Payment Date will be limited, regardless of the actual appreciation of the closing prices of the Reference Stocks, which may be significant.
  • CHANGES IN THE CLOSING PRICES OF THE REFERENCE STOCKS MAY OFFSET EACH OTHER — The notes are linked to an equally weighted basket consisting of 10 Reference Stocks. Price movements in the Reference Stocks may change such that the Stock Returns for the Reference Stocks on any relevant Coupon Determination Date may not correlate with each other. At a time when the closing prices of one or more of the Reference Stocks increases, the closing prices of the other Reference Stocks may not increase as much or may even decline in value. Therefore, in calculating the Coupon Rate for any relevant Coupon Payment Date, the positive contribution from a Reference Stock with a positive Stock Return may be moderated, or more than offset, by declines in the closing prices of the other Reference Stocks. In addition, a positive contribution by a Reference Stock is limited to the Coupon Cap and a negative contribution by a Reference Stock is limited to the Stock Return Floor, which may have a disproportionate impact on the Coupon Rate. There can be no assurance that you will receive a Coupon Payment on any Coupon Payment Date.
  • CORRELATION (OR LACK OF CORRELATION) OF PERFORMANCES AMONG THE REFERENCE STOCKS MAY REDUCE THE PERFORMANCE OF THE NOTES — Performances among the Reference Stocks may become highly correlated from time to time during the term of the notes, including, but not limited to, a period in which there is a substantial decline in the primary securities markets for the Reference Stocks. High correlation during periods of negative returns among the Reference Stocks could cause the Coupon Payments to be zero and adversely affect the value of the notes. In addition, the performance of the Reference Stocks may not be correlated and, accordingly, your investment in the notes may only produce a positive return if there is a broad based rise in the industries represented by the Reference Stocks.
  • CREDIT RISK OF JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. — The notes are subject to the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase & Co. and our credit ratings and credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the notes. Payment on the notes is dependent on JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s ability to pay the amount due on the notes at maturity, and therefore your payment on the notes is subject to our credit risk and to changes in the market’s view of our creditworthiness.  Any decline in our credit ratings or increase in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking our credit risk is likely to adversely affect the value of the notes.
  • POTENTIAL CONFLICTS We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the notes, including acting as calculation agent. In performing these duties, the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the notes. We and/or our affiliates may also currently or from time to time engage in business with the Reference Stock issuers, including extending loans to, or making equity investments in, such Reference Stock issuers or providing advisory services to such Reference Stock

 PS-2
    issuers. In addition, one or more of our affiliates may publish research reports or otherwise express opinions with respect to the Reference Stock issuers and these reports may or may not recommend that investors buy or hold the Reference Stocks. As a prospective purchaser of the notes, you should undertake an independent investigation of the applicable Reference Stock issuer that in your judgment is appropriate to make an informed decision with respect to an investment in the notes.
  • NO OWNERSHIP RIGHTS IN THE REFERENCE STOCKS — As a holder of the notes, you will not have any ownership interest or rights in any of the Reference Stocks, such as voting rights or dividend payments. In addition, the issuers of the Reference Stocks will not have any obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the notes in taking any corporate action that might affect the value of the relevant Reference Stocks and the notes.
  • NO AFFILIATION WITH THE REFERENCE STOCK ISSUERS — We are not affiliated with the issuers of the Reference Stocks. We assume no responsibility for the adequacy of the information about the Reference Stock issuers contained in this pricing supplement. You should make your own investigation into the Reference Stocks and their issuers. We are not responsible for the Reference Stock issuers’ public disclosure of information, whether contained in SEC filings or otherwise.
  • CERTAIN BUILT-IN COSTS ARE LIKELY TO ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE NOTES PRIOR TO MATURITY — While the payment at maturity described in this pricing supplement is based on the full principal amount of your notes, the original issue price of the notes includes the agent’s commission or reflects the deduction of a discount allowed to each agent and includes the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the notes. As a result, and as a general matter, the price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to purchase notes from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, will likely be lower than the full principal amount and may be lower than the price at which you initially purchased the notes and any sale prior to the maturity date could result in a substantial loss to you. This secondary market price will also be affected by a number of factors aside from the agent’s commission or discount and hedging costs, including those set forth under “Many Economic and Market Factors Will Impact the Value of the Notes” below.
    The notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your notes to maturity.
  • LACK OF LIQUIDITY — The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. JPMS intends to offer to purchase the notes in the secondary market but is not required to do so. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the notes easily. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the notes, the price at which you may be able to trade your notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which JPMS is willing to buy the notes.
  • HEDGING AND TRADING IN THE REFERENCE STOCKS — While the notes are outstanding, we or any of our affiliates or an unaffiliated hedging agent may carry out hedging activities related to the notes, including in the Reference Stocks or instruments related to one or more of the Reference Stocks. We or our affiliates may also trade in the Reference Stocks or instruments related to the Reference Stocks from time to time. Any of these hedging or trading activities as of the pricing date and during the term of the notes could adversely affect our payment to you on any Coupon Payment Date.
  • ANTI-DILUTION PROTECTION IS LIMITED — The calculation agent will make adjustments to the Share Adjustment Factor for each Reference Stock to reflect certain events affecting such Reference Stock. However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment in response to all events that could affect the Reference Stocks. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to make an adjustment, the value of the notes may be materially and adversely affected. See “General Terms of Notes — Anti-Dilution Adjustments” in the accompanying product supplement for further information.
  • MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS WILL INFLUENCE THE VALUE OF THE NOTES — In addition to the closing price of the Reference Stock on any day, the value of the notes will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each other, including:
    • the expected volatility in the Reference Stocks;
    • the time to maturity of the notes;
    • the dividend rates paid on the Reference Stocks;
    • the correlation (or lack of correlation) in price movements among the Reference Stocks;
    • interest and yield rates in the market generally;
    • a variety of economic, financial, political, regulatory and judicial events;
    • the occurrence of certain events affecting the issuers of the Reference Stocks that may or may not require an adjustment to the applicable Share Adjustment Factor, including a merger or acquisition; and
    • our creditworthiness, including actual or anticipated downgrades in our credit ratings.

Sensitivity Analysis — Hypothetical Coupon Rates for one Coupon Payment Date for Each $1,000 note

The following tables and examples illustrate hypothetical Coupon Rates for a Coupon Payment Date for a basket of ten hypothetical Reference Stocks, each with a hypothetical Initial Share Price of $100 and a hypothetical Final Share Price as set forth in the table for each example. The following tables and examples reflect the Coupon Cap of 9.60% per annum, the Stock Return Threshold of 9.60% per annum, the Minimum Coupon Rate of 0.00% per annum and the Stock Return Floor of -20%.

The actual Initial Share Price for each Reference Stock is different from the hypothetical Initial Share Price and different from the Initial Share Price of each of the other Reference Stocks. The actual Final Share Price for each Reference Stock included in the Basket will be determined on the applicable Coupon Determination Date and will likely be different from the hypothetical Final Share Prices set forth below. The hypothetical Coupon Rates set forth below are for illustrative purposes only and may not be the actual Coupon Rates for any Coupon Payment Date applicable to a purchaser of the notes. The numbers appearing in the following tables and examples have been rounded for ease of analysis.

As illustrated by Table 1 above, because 8 of the 10 Reference Stocks have positive Stock Returns, ranging from 0.10% to 6.00%, and even though the other 2 Reference Stocks (Stock 6 and Stock 8) have negative Stock Returns of -5.00% and -3.00%, the Coupon Rate is 1.31% per annum, and the investor receives a Coupon Payment on the applicable Coupon Payment Date of $13.10 per $1,000 note. Even when most of the Reference Stocks only have modest positive Stock Returns, if the negative Stock Returns for the other Reference Stocks are sufficiently small, the investor will receive a Coupon Payment on the applicable Coupon Payment Date.

0.00% per annum

Explanation for Example 2

As illustrated by Table 2 above, even though 6 of the 10 Reference Stocks have Stock Returns equal to or greater than zero, ranging from 0.00% to 50.00%, because the other 4 Reference Stocks (Stock 1, Stock 3, Stock 7 and Stock 9) have significant negative Stock Returns of -19.00%,-15.00%, -18.00% and -50.00%, and although the Stock Performance of Stock 9 will be the greater of the Stock Return of -50% and the Stock Return Floor, which is -20%, the weighted average Stock Performance is -2.76%. However, because the Coupon Rate may not be less than 0.00%, the Coupon Rate is 0.00% per annum, and the investor receives no Coupon Payment on the applicable Coupon Payment Date. Even when most of the Reference Stocks have positive Stock Returns, if the negative Stock Returns for the other Reference Stocks are sufficiently large, the investor will receive no Coupon Payment on the applicable Coupon Payment Date.

Even when all of the Reference Stocks have significant positive Stock Returns, the Coupon Payment on the applicable Coupon Payment Date is limited by the Coupon Cap.

As illustrated by Table 4 above, even though 6 of the 10 Reference Stocks have Stock Returns equal to or greater than zero, ranging from 0.00% to 50.00%, because the other 4 Reference Stocks (Stock 1, Stock 3, Stock 7 and Stock 9) have negative Stock Returns of -9.80%,-2.00%, -18.00% and -9.00%, the average Stock Performance is 0%. Therefore, the Coupon Rate is 0.00% per annum, and the investor receives no Coupon Payment on the applicable Coupon Payment Date. Even when most of the Reference Stocks have significant positive Stock Returns, if the negative Stock Returns for the other Reference Stocks are sufficiently large, the investor will receive no Coupon Payment on the applicable Coupon Payment Date.
