Notes

(1) Represents the performance of the Index based on, as applicable to the
relevant measurement period, the hypothetical backtested weekly Index closing
levels from November 28, 2003 through June 29, 2007, and the actual historical
performance of the Index based on the weekly Index closing level from July 6,
2007 through November 29, 2013, as well as the performance of the MSCI World
Index ("MSCI World"), the Dow Jones -- UBS Commodity Index(SM) ("DJ-UBS") and
the JPMorgan GBI (USD Hedged) Global Bond Index ("JPM GBI") over the same
period. For the purpose of the chart illustrated on page 1, each index was set
equal to 100 on January 31, 2002. For calculations of recent performance table
on page 1 and comparison of hypothetical and historical performance table on
page 2 actual index levels have been used. There is no guarantee of any future
performance for these three indices based on this information. Source:
Bloomberg and JPMorgan.
(2) Calculated from the historical returns, as applicable to the relevant
measurement period, of the indices over a six-month observation period. For any
given day, represents the annualized standard deviation of each index's
arithmetic daily returns for the 126-index day period preceding that day. The
back-tested, hypothetical, historical six-month annualized volatility has
inherent limitations. These volatility results were achieved by means of a
retroactive application of a back-tested volatility model designed with the
benefit of hindsight. No representation is made that in the future the Index,
the MSCI World, DJ-UBS and JPM GBI will have the volatilities as shown above or
that the Index will outperform any alternative investment strategy. Alternative
modeling techniques or assumptions might produce significantly different
results and may prove to be more appropriate. Actual six-month annualized
volatilities may vary materially from this analysis. Source: Bloomberg and
JPMorgan.
(3) On a quarterly basis (each January, April, July, and October), J.P. Morgan
Securities Ltd., or JPMSL, acting as the Index calculation agent, will
rebalance the Index to take synthetic long positions in the Basket Constituents
based on mathematical rules that govern the Index and track the returns of the
synthetic portfolio above cash. The weights for each Basket Constituent will be
adjusted to comply with certain allocation constraints, including constraints
on individual Basket Constituents, as well as the individual sectors.

(4) Calculated based on the annualized standard deviation for the ten year
period prior to November 29, 2013

(5) 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.
(6) Correlation refers to the degree the applicable index has changed relative
to daily changes in the JPMorgan Efficiente (USD) Index.

Key Risks

o There are risks associated with a momentum-based investment strategy.
Efficiente is different from a strategy that seeks long-term exposure to a
portfolio consisting of constant components with fixed weights. The Index may
fail to realize gains that could occur from holding assets that have experienced
price declines, but experience a sudden price spike thereafter.

o Correlation of performances among the Basket Constituents may reduce the
performance of the Index amongst the Basket Constituents. High correlation
during periods of negative returns among Basket Constituents representing any
one sector or asset type which have a substantial weighting in the Index could
have a material adverse effect on the performance of the Strategy.

o Our affiliate, JPMSL, is the 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 securities linked to the Index.
o The Index may not be successful, may not outperform any alternative
strategy related to the Basket Constituents, or may not achieve its target
volatility of 8%.
o The investment strategy involves quarterly rebalancing and maximum
weighting caps applied to the Basket Constituents by asset type and
geographical region.
o Changes in the value of the Basket Constituents may offset each other.
o An investment linked to the Index is subject to risks associated with non-
U.S. securities markets, such as emerging markets and currency exchange risk.
o The Index was established on July 2, 2007 and has a limited operating
history.
