Notes

1     Represents  the  performance  of  the Index based on, as applicable to the
      relevant  measurement  period,  the  hypothetical  backtested  daily Index
      closing  levels  from  June  30, 2005 through June 2, 2011, and the actual
      historical performance of the index based on tha daily Index closing level
      from June 3, 2011 through July 31, 2015, as well as the performance of the
      SandP  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 calculated arithmetically (not compounded)
      .  There  is no guarantee the Index will outperform the SandP 500[R] Index
      or any alternative investment strategy. Source: Bloomberg and JPMorgan.

2     Calculated  based  on  the  annualized standard deviation for the ten year
      period  prior  to  July  31,  2015.  Past performance is not indicative of
      future returns.

3     The  historical  volatility levels of the SandP 500[R] Index are presented
      for  informational  purposes  only  and have inherent limitations. For the
      purpose  of  this  graph,  volatility  is  calculated  in  accordance with
      Standard  and  Poor's  official methodology used in the calculation of the
      SandP  500[R]  RC2 Index. No representation is made that in the future the
      SandP  500[R]  Index  will  have  the  volatility shown above. Alternative
      modeling  techniques  or assumptions might produce significantly different
      results  and  may  prove  to  be more appropriate. The hypothetical equity
      exposure  obtained  from  such  back  -  testing  should not be considered
      indicative  of  the  actual  exposure  that  would be assigned during your
      investment  in  the  Index.  No  representation  is  made  that the actual
      performance  of  the  Index  would  result in exposure consistent with the
      hypothetical  exposure displayed in the preceding graph. Actual annualized
      volatilities  and  exposures  will  vary,  perhaps  materially,  from this
      analysis. Source: Bloomberg and JPMorgan.

4     Correlation  is  calculated  from the historical returns, as applicable to
      the   relevant   measurement  period,  of  the  SandP  500[R]  Index  (the
      "Underlying  Index")  over  a  six - month observation period. Correlation
      refers  to  the  degree  that the SandP 500 RC2 8% Excess Return Index has
      changed relative to daily changes in the SandP 500 Index Index for the ten
      year period prior to July 31, 2015.

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.

Key Risks

o     The  Index  has  a limited operating history and may perform in unexpected
      ways  -the  Index  began  publishing on June 3, 2011 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 either underlying
      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 Underlying Equity Index or the Underlying Bond Index or any
      alternative strategy that might be employed to reduce the level of risk of
      the  Underlying  Equity  Index. We also can give you no assurance that the
      Index will achieve its target volatility of 8% .

o     The  Index may significantly underperform the Underlying Equity Index -the
      Index  is  designed to allocate its exposure between the Underlying Equity
      Index  and the Underlying Bond Index in a manner that results in the Index
      targeting  a volatility of 8% . It is not possible to predict the level of
      exposure that the Index will have to either the Underlying Equity Index or
      Underlying  Bond Index over a given period of time. However the Index will
      likely  have  less, and possibly significantly less, than 100% exposure to
      the  Underlying  Equity  Index over a period of time. Consequently, if the
      Underlying Equity Index increases in value over the applicable period, the
      Index  will  likely  underperform  the  Underlying  Equity Index, possibly
      significantly,  over the same period if the Underlying Bond Index declines
      or  does not increase in value to the same extent over that period. If the
      Underlying  Equity  Index  and  the  Underlying  Bond Index are negatively
      correlated  and  the  Index has relatively high exposure to the Underlying
      Bond Index and relatively low exposure to the Underlying Equity Index, the
      Index  may  experience  a  significant  negative  performance  even as the
      Underlying Equity Index rises.

o     In  certain circumstances, the Index will be notionally invested, in part,
      in  cash,  on  which  no  interest or other return will accrue -in certain
      circumstances  the Index will be solely allocated to the Underlying Equity
      Index  with  a  weight  less  than  100%  and  with the balance notionally
      allocated  to  cash.  No  net  return  or interest will accrue on any such
      portion  of  the  Index exposure that is notionally allocated to cash, and
      such portion may be significant. Such portion is effectively uninvested.

o     The  Index  is  subject  to the negative impact of an interest deduction--
      because  the  Index  is  an  excess  return  index, the level of the Index
      reflects  the  weighted returns of the Underlying Indices less an interest
      deduction,  which  is generally based on the return from a synthetic daily
      roling  3-  month  bond,  with reference to the 2- month and 3-month U. S.
      LIBOR  rates. As a result, the performance of the Index will be subject to
      the negative impact of those interest rates.

Key Risks Continued

o     The returns of the Underlying Indicies may offset each other or may become
      correlated  in  decline  -at a time when the value of one Underlying Index
      increases,  the  value  of  the other Underlying Index may not increase as
      much  or  may  even decline, offsetting the potentially positive effect of
      the  performance  of the former Underlying Index on the performance of the
      Index.  Historically,  the  performance of the Underlying Equity Index has
      often  been  negatively  correlated  with  the  performance of the futures
      contracts  underlying  the Underlying Bond Index. It is also possible that
      the  returns  of  the Underlying Indices may be positively correlated with
      each  other.  In  this  case,  a decline in one Underlying Index would not
      moderate  the  effect  of  a  decline in the other Underlying Index on the
      performance of the Index, but would rather exacerbate it. As a result, the
      Index may not perform as well as an alternative index that tracks only one
      Underlying Index.

o     Our  affiliate,  J.  P.  Morgan Securities LLC ("JPMS") helped develop the
      SandP  500[R]  Daily RC2 8% Excess Return Index. JPMS worked with SandP in
      developing  the  guidelines  and  policies  governing  the composition and
      calculation of the SandP 500[R] Daily RC2 8% Excess Return Index. Although
      judgments,  policies  and determinations concerning the SandP 500[R] Daily
      RC2  8% Excess Return Index were made by JPMS, JPMorgan Chase and Co. , as
      the  parent  company  of  JPMS, ultimately controls JPMS. In addition, the
      policies  and  judgments  for  which  JPMS  was  responsible could have an
      impact,  positive  or negative, on the level of the SandP 500[R] Daily RC2
      8%  Excess  Return  Index.  JPMS  is  under no obligation to consider your
