THE SandP 500(R) RISK CONTROL 10% EXCESS RETURN INDEX STRATEGY GUIDE


Overview

The SandP 500([R]) Risk Control 10% Excess Return Index (the "SandP 500 Risk
Control Index" or the "Index") provides investors with a broad U.S. equities
index that has the potential for greater stability and lower overall risk when
compared to the SandP 500([R]) Total Return Index.

The SandP 500 Risk Control Index tracks the performance of a hypothetical
portfolio that invests in the SandP 500([R]) Total Return Index (the "Underlying
Index"), which reflects dividend reinvestment in the SandP 500([R]) Index, and
is funded at LIBOR. The Underlying Index is sometimes referred to as the "SPTR"
or "SandP 500([R]) TR". The exposure of the SandP 500 Risk Control Index to the
Underlying Index can range from 0% to 150%, and is determined by the level of
observed volatility in equity returns. This exposure is dynamically adjusted on
a daily basis to target a 10% level of volatility, though there is no guarantee
the Index will achieve this target.

Key features of the Index include:

[]   exposure to the SandP 500([R]) Total Return Index with the benefit of a
     risk control mechanism that targets an annualized volatility of 10%

[]   exposure adjusted on a daily basis with the ability to employ leverage of
     up to 150% during periods of low volatility

[]   closing levels published daily by Standard and Poor's on Bloomberg under
     the ticker SPXT10UE

The following graph sets forth the historical performance of the SandP 500([R])
Index from January 3, 2000 through June 30, 2010 and the performance of the
SandP 500 Risk Control Index based on hypothetical back-tested closing levels
from January 3, 2000 through May 13, 2009, and actual historical closing levels
from May 14, 2009 through June 30, 2010. Over this period, the SandP 500 Risk
Control Index had annualized returns of -0.52% with an annualized volatility of
9.98% in comparison to the SandP 500([R]) Index which had annualized returns of
- -1.39% with an annualized volatility of 21.83% . There is no guarantee that the
SandP 500 Risk Control Index will outperform the SandP 500([R]) Index, or any
alternative strategy during the term of your investment in CDs linked to the
SandP 500 Risk Control Index.

Note: Because the Index did not exist prior to May 13, 2009, all retrospective
levels provided above and in the graph on the previous page are simulated and
must be considered illustrative only. The simulated data was constructed using
certain procedures that may vary from the procedures used to calculate the Index
going forward, and on the basis of certain assumptions that may not hold during
future periods. The variations used in producing simulated historical data from
those used to calculate the Index going forward could produce variations in
returns of indeterminate direction and amount. Past hypothetical performance
results are neither indicative of nor a guarantee of future returns. Actual
results will vary, potentially materially, from the hypothetical historical
performance provided herein. Please see "Important Information" at the front of
this publication for a discussion of certain additional limitations of
back-testing and simulated returns.

"Annualized return" is calculated arithmetically and was not calculated on a
compound basis.

"Annualized volatility" means the standard deviation of each Index's arithmetic
daily returns scaled for a one-year period based on the period from January 3,
2000 through June 30, 2010.

The Index is an excess return index that reflects the hypothetical cost of
borrowing at LIBOR to fund a hypothetical investment in the SandP 500([R]) Total
Return Index (which includes dividend reinvestment). The hypothetical cost of
borrowing reflected in the Index may partially or totally offset any gains from
the dividend reinvestment feature included in the SandP 500([R]) Total Return
Index. Accordingly, in order to provide a more meaningful comparison, we have
displayed the hypothetical performance, annualized return and annualized
volatility of the Index and the price return version of the SandP 500([R]) Index
in the preceding graph and table.

Index description

Dynamic Exposure

The SandP 500 Risk Control Index represents a portfolio with variable exposure
to the SandP 500([R]) Total Return Index, which reflects dividend reinvestment
in the SandP 500([R]) Index, and is funded at LIBOR. The exposure to the SandP
500([R]) Total Return Index can range between 0% and 150% and is determined by
the level of observed volatility in equity returns. The return of the SandP 500
Risk Control Index consists of two components: (1) the return on the allocation
to the SandP 500([R]) Total Return Index, which reflects dividend reinvestment
in the SandP 500([R]) Index, and (2) the cost of borrowing required to fund the
equity investment.

Targeting Volatility

The exposure to the SandP 500([R]) Total Return Index is adjusted on a daily
basis to target a 10% level of volatility. Volatility is a measurement of the
variability of returns based on historical performance and, in the case of the
case of the Index, is calculated using weightings to give more significance to
recent observations. In addition, a short-term measure and a long-term measure
of volatility are used to cause the Index to deleverage quickly, but increase
exposure more gradually on a relative basis. If the volatility level reaches a
threshold which is above the target volatility, exposure to the SandP 500([R])
Total Return Index is reduced. If the risk level is too low, the Index will
employ a leverage factor greater than 100% to maintain the target volatility.

The following graph sets forth the hypothetical back-tested exposure to the
Underlying Index as well as the observed volatility. For the purposes of this
graph, volatility is calculated according to Standard and Poor's([R]) official
methodology used in the calculation of the SandP 500 Risk Control Index.

Note: The historical volatility levels of the SandP 500([R]) TR are presented
for informational purposes only and have inherent limitations. No representation
is made that in the future the SandP 500 TR will have volatility shown above.
Alternative modeling techniques or assumptions might produce significantly
different results and may prove to be more appropriate. The hypothetical
leverage factors obtained from such back-testing should not be considered
indicative of the actual leverage that would be assigned during your investment
in the Index. No representation is made that the actual performance of the Index
would result in leverage factors consistent with the hypothetical leverage
factors displayed in the preceding graph. Actual annualized volatilities and
leverage factors will vary, perhaps materially, from this analysis. Please see
"Important Information" at the front of this publication for a discussion of
certain additional limitations of back-testing and simulated returns.


 

 
 



THE SandP 500(R) RISK CONTROL 10% EXCESS RETURN INDEX STRATEGY GUIDE


Risks associated with the SandP 500([R]) Risk Control 10% Excess Return

THE INDEX HAS A LIMITED HISTORY AND MAY PERFORM IN UNEXPECTED WAYS -- The Index
began publishing on May 13, 2009 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. Unlike historical performance, such hypothetical calculations do
not reflect actual trading, liquidity constraints, fees and other costs. In
addition, the models used to calculate these hypothetical returns are based on
certain data, assumptions and estimates. Different models or models using
different data, assumptions or estimates might result in materially different
hypothetical performance.

THE INDEX MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL, MAY NOT OUTPERFORM THE UNDERLYING INDEX AND MAY
NOT ACHIEVE ITS TARGET VOLATILITY -- The Index employs a mathematical algorithm
designed to control the level of risk of the Underlying Index by establishing a
specific volatility target and dynamically adjusting the exposure to the
Underlying Index based on its observed historical volatility. No assurance can
be given that the volatility strategy will be successful or that the Index will
outperform the Underlying Index or any alternative strategy that might be
employed to reduce the level of risk of the Underlying Index. We also can give
you no assurance that the Index will achieve its target volatility of 10%.

THE SandP 500([R]) RISK CONTROL 10% EXCESS RETURN INDEX IS NOT THE TOTAL RETURN
INDEX AND IS SUBJECT TO SHORT-TERM MONEY MARKET FUND BORROWING COSTS -- As an
"excess return" index, the SandP 500([R]) Risk Control 10% Excess Return Index
calculates the return on a leveraged or deleveraged investment in the Underlying
Index where the investment was made through the use of borrowed funds. By
contrast, the SandP 500([R]) Risk Control 10% Total Return Index is a "total
return" index which tracks returns of varying allocation between the Underlying
Index and an accumulating cash position according to the target volatility.
Investments linked to this "excess return" index, which represents an unfunded
position in the Underlying Index, will be subject to short-term money market
fund borrowing costs and will not include the "total return" feature or cash
component of the "total return" index, which represents a funded position in the
Underlying Index.

THE INDEX DYNAMICALLY ADJUSTS EXPOSURE TO THE UNDERLYING INDEX BASED ON HISTORIC
VOLATILITY THAT CAN LEAD TO AN UNDEREXPOSURE TO THE PERFORMANCE OF THE
UNDERLYING INDEX -- The Index represents a portfolio consisting of the
Underlying Index and a borrowing cost component accruing interest based on U.S.
overnight LIBOR. The Index dynamically adjusts its exposure to the Underlying
Index based on the Underlying Index's historic volatility. The Index's exposure
to the Underlying Index will decrease when historical volatility causes the risk
level of the Underlying Index to reach a high threshold. If, at any time, the
Index exhibits low exposure to the Underlying Index and the Underlying Index
subsequently appreciates significantly, the Index will not participate fully in
this appreciation.

OUR AFFILIATE, J.P. MORGAN SECURITIES INC., HELPED DEVELOP THE SandP 500([R])
RISK CONTROL 10% EXCESS RETURN INDEX -- J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. ("JPMSI"),
