Notes

Hypothetical, historical performance measures: Represents the performance of
the JPMorgan U.S. Sector Rotator TR Series X Index based on, as applicable to
the relevant measurement period, the hypothetical backtested daily closing
levels through August 17, 2014 and actual performance from August 18, 2014
through December 31, 2014, as well as the actual performance of the S&P 500
Total Return Index and the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index over the same
periods. 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 J.P. Morgan US
Sector Rotator TR Series X Index will outperform the S&P 500 Total Return Index
, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index or any alternative investment
strategy. Sources: Bloomberg and JPMorgan.

S&P 500 Total Return Index represents the total returns of the S&P 500 Index.
Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (Total Return) represents the returns of the
Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.
Volatility: hypothetical, historical annualized volatility levels are presented
for informational purposes only. Volatility levels are calculated from the
hypothetical historical returns, as applicable to the relevant measurement
period, of the JPMorgan US Sector Rotator TR Series X Index, S&P 500 Total
Return Index, and the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.
Volatility represents the annualized standard deviation of the relevant index's
arithmetic hypothetical daily returns since December 31, 2004. The Sharpe
Ratio, which is an hypothetical measure of risk-adjusted performance, is
computed as the ten year annualized historical return divided by the ten year
annualized volatility.
Correlation : Correlation refers to the performance of the relevant index to
the JPMorgan U.S. Sector Rotator TR Series X Index.

The back-tested, hypothetical, historical annualized volatility and index
returns may use substitutes for any ETF that was not in existence or did not
meet the liquidity standards at that particular time.

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

Key Risks

  There are risks associated with a momentum-based  investment strategy--The
JPMorgan U. S.  Sector Rotator TR Series X Index (the "Index") 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.

  Correlation of performances among the constituents may reduce the performance
of the Index--performances  among the constituents comprising the Index from
time to time (the "Constituents") may become highly correlated from time to
time during the term of your investment.  High correlation during periods of
negative returns among Constituents representing any one sector or asset type
that have a substantial weighting in the Index could have a material adverse
effect on the performance of the Index.

  Our affiliate, JPMS plc, is the Index sponsor and may adjust the Index in a
way that affects its level--The  policies and judgments for which JPMS plc is
responsible could have an impact, positive or negative, on the level of the
Index and the value of your investment.  JPMS plc is under no obligation to
consider your interest as an investor with returns linked to the Index.

 The Index may not be successful and may not outperform any alternative
strategy related to the Constituents.

 The investment strategy involves monthly rebalancing and maximum weighting
caps applied to the Constituents by asset type that may reduce your return.

 Changes in the value of the Constituents may offset each other.

 The Index comprises notional assets and liabilities.  There is no actual
portfolio of assets to which any person is entitled or in which any person has
any ownership interest.

 The Index was established on August 18, 2014 and has a limited operating
history.

The risks identified above are not exhaustive. You should also review carefully

underlying supplement, term sheet or pricing supplement.
