Please see Key rRsks on the next page for additional information. Source: J. P.
 Morgan. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. " JPUSBLCS
 Index " refers to the performance of J.P. Morgan Balanced Capital Strength
 Index (Bloomberg: JPUSBLCS Index) (the "Index") . The levels of the Index
 incorporate an adjustment factor of 0.50% per annum and a deduction for a
 borrowing cost.

Hypothetical, historical performance measures: Represents the monthly and full
 calendar year performance of the Index based on as applicable to the relevant
 measurement period, the hypothetical back tested daily closing levels from
 December 31, 2007 through April 29,2014 and the actual historical performance
 of the Index based on daily closing levels from April 30, 2014 through November
 28, 2014. YTD reflects the year to date performance of the Index from the last
 business day of the previous calendar year through, and including June 28,
 2013. The hypothetical historical values above have not been verified by an
 independent third party. The back - tested, hypothetical historical results
 above have inherent limitations. These back - tested results are achieved by
 means of a retroactive application of a back - tested model designed with the
 benefit of hindsight. No representation is made that an investment linked to
 the Index will or is likely to achieve returns similar to those shown.
 Alternative modelling techniques or assumptions would produce different
 hypothetical historical information that might prove to be more appropriate and
 that might differ significantly from the hypothetical historical information
 set forth above. Hypothetical back -tested results are neither an indicator nor
 a guarantee of future returns. Actual results will vary, perhaps materially,
 from the analysis implied in the hypothetical historical information that forms
 part of the information contained in the table above.
