Notes
1) Represents the performance of the Index based on, as applicable to the
relevant measurement period, the hypothetical backtested daily Index closing
levels from Mar 28,2002 through Aug 27, 2009, and the actual historical
performance of the Index based on the daily Index closing level from Aug 28,
2009 through Mar 30, 2012, as well as the performance of the US Generic
Government 10 Year Yield Index over the same period. There is no guarantee of
any future performance for these indices based on this information. Source:
Bloomberg and JPMorgan.
2) On a quarterly basis (generally, the second to last business day in February,
May, August and November), J.P. Morgan Securities Ltd., or JPMSL, acting as the
Index calculation agent, will rebalance the Index to take synthetic long
positions in the next 10 year Treasury Futures Contract scheduled to expire
immediately following the contract closest to expiration.
3) Calculated based on the annualized standard deviation for the ten year
period prior to Mar 30, 2012
4) For the above analysis, the Sharpe Ratio, which is a measure of risk-adjusted
performance, is computed as the ten year annualized historical return divided by
the ten year annualized volatility.

Key Risks
[] Our affiliate, JPMSL, is the index calculation agent and may adjust the
Index in a way that affects its level. The policies and judgments for which
JPMSL is responsible could have an impact, positive or negative, on the
level of the Index and the value of your investment. JPMSL is under no
obligation to consider your interest as an investor in financial
instruments linked to the Index.
[] The Index comprises notional assets only. You will not have any claim
against any of the 10-year Treasury futures underlying the Index or the
related Treasury securities.
[] Interest Rate Risk -- The level of the Index changes daily, at times
significantly based upon the current market prices of the volatile 10-year
Treasury futures contracts and the related Treasury notes. These market
prices are influenced by a variety of factors, particularly interest rate
changes, the yields on the Treasury futures/notes as compared to current
market interest rates and the actual or perceived credit quality of the
U.S. government.
[] The Index may be subject to high levels of volatility. Futures contracts on
the 10-year U.S. Treasury notes are highly leveraged and often display
higher volatility and less liquidity than the 10-year U.S. Treasury Notes.
[] The settlement price of 10 year Treasury Futures may not be readily
available.
[] The Index was established in August 2009 and therefore has a limited
operating history.
[] The Index may in the future be subject to an adjustment factor that could
negatively affect the level of the Index.
The risks identified above are not exhaustive. You should also review carefully
the related "Risk Factors" section in the relevant product supplement and the
"Selected Risk Considerations" in the relevant term sheet or pricing supplement.
