SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index

Performance Update - February 2014

OVERVIEW

The SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index (the
"Index") provides investors with exposure to the "blue chip" names of the SandP
500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index. It also adds a volatility
control mechanism that targets 8% volatility by adjusting its level of exposure
to the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index. This volatility
control mechanism seeks to create a more consistent risk-return profile for the
Dividend Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Index.

Key Features of the Index

o Exposure to the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index, a group
of 40 or more SandP 500[R] stocks with records of consistently increasing
dividends over the past 25 years. SandP can relax this criterion if less than 40
names qualify.

o In an effort to maintain a constant annualized volatility of 8%, the Index
uses an algorithm to dynamically adjust exposure daily.

o To adjust exposure, the Index has the ability to employ leverage of up to 150%
during periods of low volatility.

o Levels published daily by Standard and Poor's on Bloomberg. The SandP 500[R]
Dividend Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index targets 8% volatility
and is published to Bloomberg under the ticker SPXD8UE.

Notes on performance, volatility, leverage and, Sharpe Ratio statistics

Hypothetical, historical performance measures: Represent the performance of the
Index based on, as applicable to the relevant measurement period, the
hypothetical backtested daily Index closing levels from January 30, 2004 through
August 24, 2010, and the actual historical performance of the Index based on the
daily Index closing level from August 25, 2010 through January 31, 2014, as well
as the performance of the SandP 500[R] Index over the same period. For purposes
of these examples, each index was equal to 100 at the beginning of the relevant
measurement period and returns are calculated arithmetically (not compounded).
There is no guarantee the relevant Index will outperform the SandP 500[R] Total
Return Index, the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index or any
alternative investment strategy. Sources: Bloomberg and JPMorgan.

Volatility is calculated from the historical returns, as applicable to the
relevant measurement period, of the SandP 500[R] Total Return Index, the SandP
500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index and the SandP 500[R] Dividend
Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index. Volatility represents the
annualized standard deviation of the relevant index's arithmetic daily returns
through September 30, 2013. The index leverage is the hypothetical back-tested
amount of exposure of the Index to the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total
Return Index and should not be considered indicative of the actual leverage that
would be assigned during an investment in the Index. 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.

The back-tested, hypothetical, historical annualized volatility and index
leverage have inherent limitations. These volatility and leverage 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 relevant indices will have the volatility as shown. Alternative
modeling techniques or assumptions might produce significantly different results
and may prove to be more appropriate. Actual annualized volatilities and
leverage may vary materially from this analysis. Source: Bloomberg and JPMorgan.

Key Risks

o The Index has a limited operating history and may perform in unexpected ways.
The Index began publishing on August 25, 2010 and, therefore, has a limited
history. SandP has calculated the returns that hypothetically might have been
generated had the Index existed in the past, but those calculations are subject
to many limitations and do not reflect actual trading, liquidity constraints,
fees and other costs.

o The Index may not be successful, may not outperform the SandP 500[R] Dividend
Aristocrats Total Return Index and may not achieve its target volatility. No
assurance can be given that the volatility strategy will be successful or that
the Index will outperform the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return
Index or any alternative strategy that might be employed to reduce the level of
risk of the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index . We also can
give no assurance that the Index will achieve its target volatility of 8%.

o The Index is not a total return index, and is subject to short-term money
market fund borrowing costs-- As an "excess return" index, the SandP 500[R]
Dividend Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index calculates the return
on a leveraged or deleveraged investment in the SandP 500[R] Dividend
Aristocrats Total Return Index where the investment was made through the use of
borrowed funds. Investments linked to this "excess return" index, which
represents an unfunded position in the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total
Return Index , will be subject to short-term money market fund borrowing costs
and will not include the "total return" feature or the cash component of the
"total return" index, which represents a funded position in the SandP 500[R]
Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index .

o The Index represents portfolios consisting of the SandP 500[R] Dividend
Aristocrats Total Return Index and a borrowing cost component accruing interest
based on a synthetically rolling 3-month bond with reference to the 2-month and
3-month U.S. LIBOR rates. The Index dynamically adjusts its exposures to the
SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index based on the SandP 500[R]
Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index's historic volatility. The Index's'
exposure to the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index will
decrease when historical volatility causes the risk level of the SandP 500[R]
Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index to reach a high threshold. If, at any
time, the Index exhibits low exposure to the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats
Total Return Index and the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index
subsequently appreciates significantly, the Index will not participate fully in
this appreciation.
