S and P 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index

Performance Update - March 2014

OVERVIEW

The S and P 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index (the
"Index") provides investors with exposure to the "blue chip" names of the S and
P 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 S and P 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

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

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

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

Levels published daily by Standard and Poor's on Bloomberg. The S and P 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 February 27, 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 February 28,
2014, as well as the performance of the S and P 500[R] Index over the same
period. For purposes of these examples, each index was set 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 S and P 500[R] Total Return Index, the S and P 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 S and P 500[R] Total
Return Index, the S and P 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index and the
S and P 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 February 28, 2014. The index leverage is the
hypothetical back-tested amount of exposure of the Index to the S and P 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

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. S and P 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.

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

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 S and P 500[R] Dividend
Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index calculates the return on a
leveraged or deleveraged investment in the S and P 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 S and P 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 S and P 500[R] Dividend
Aristocrats Total Return Index .

The Index represents portfolios consisting of the S and P 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 S
and P 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index based on the S and P 500[R]
Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index's historic volatility. The Index's'
exposure to the S and P 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index will
decrease when historical volatility causes the risk level of the S and P 500[R]
Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index to reach a high threshold. If, at any
time, the Index exhibits low exposure to the S and P 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats
Total Return Index and the S and P 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return
Index subsequently appreciates significantly, the Index will not participate
fully in this appreciation.
