Hypothetical Examples of Amounts Payable at Maturity

The following examples illustrate how the total returns set forth in the table on the previous page are calculated.

Example 1: The Ending Underlying Value increases from the Initial Underlying Value of 105 to an Ending Underlying Value of 110.25. Because the Ending Underlying Value of 110.25 is greater than the Initial Underlying Value of 105, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $1,044.60 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:

$1,000 x (1 + 5%) – $5.40 = $1,044.60

Example 2: The Ending Underlying Value increases from the Initial Underlying Value of 105 to an Ending Underlying Value of 105.2625. Even though the Ending Underlying Value of 105.2625 is greater than the Initial Underlying Value of 105, because the Underlying Return is less than 0.54%, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $997.10 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:

$1,000 x (1 +0.25%) – $5.40 = $997.10

Example 3: The Ending Underlying Value decreases from the Initial Underlying Value of 105 to an Ending Underlying Value of 84. Because the Ending Underlying Value of 84 is less than the Initial Underlying Value of 105, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $794.60 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:

$1,000 x (1 + -20%) – $5.40 = $794.60

Example 4: The Ending Underlying Value decreases from the Initial Underlying Value of 105 to an Ending Underlying Value of 0. Because the Ending Underlying Value of 0 is less than the Initial Underlying Value of 105, and because the payment at maturity per $1,000 principal amount note may not be less than $0, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $0 per $1,000 principal amount note.

JPMorgan Commodity Investable Global Asset Rotator Excess Return

The JPMorgan Commodity Investable Global Asset Rotator Excess Return (the “Commodity-IGAR” or the “Underlying”) was developed and is maintained by J.P. Morgan Securities Ltd. to implement a momentum-based algorithmic strategy for commodity allocations. As of the date of this amended and restated term sheet, the Underlying is being calculated by the Global Index Research Group, which is a walled-off entity within JPMSI. The Commodity-IGAR references the value of a synthetic portfolio selected from a limited universe of commodity sub-indices, each of which is a component of the S&P GSCITM Index (“S&P GSCITM”) and is intended to serve as a benchmark value for a particular commodity.

Historical performance data for each sub-index is run through the Commodity-IGAR algorithms on a monthly basis. The algorithms test each sub-index’s performance and consistency. The performance test filters out sub-indices that have not demonstrated one-year appreciation, and the consistency test filters out sub-indices that have not demonstrated consistent positive monthly performance over a one-year period, attributing greater weight to more recent monthly periods.

Up to twelve sub-indices that pass both tests are selected for inclusion in the synthetic portfolio until the next monthly rebalancing. The selected sub-indices are each weighted one-twelfth. If more than twelve sub-indices pass both tests, the twelve best-performing sub-indices are included in the synthetic portfolio. If fewer than twelve sub-indices meet the selection criteria, the balance of the synthetic portfolio is deemed uninvested. The synthetic portfolio for July 2010 contains five constituents (the S&P GSCITM Unleaded Gasoline Index — Excess Return; the S&P GSCITM Nickel Index — Excess Return; the S&P GSCITM Gold Index — Excess Return; the S&P GSCITM Silver Index — Excess Return; and the S&P GSCITM Feeder Cattle Index — Excess Return), and therefore seven-twelfths of the synthetic portfolio is currently deemed uninvested. The value of the Commodity-IGAR is the value of the synthetic portfolio, less a deemed calculation agency fee deducted daily at an annual rate of 0.96%.

The value of the Commodity-IGAR is published each trading day under the Bloomberg ticker symbol “CMDTYER”.

Selected Risk Considerations

An investment in the notes involves significant risks. Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the S&P GSCITM constituent sub-indices, in any of the commodities whose futures contracts determine the levels of the S&P GSCITM constituent sub-indices or the constituent sub-indices of the Commodity-IGAR, or in any contracts relating to such commodities for which there is an active secondary market. These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” section of the accompanying product supplement no. 90-A-I dated July 7, 2009.

Hypothetical Back-tested Data and Historical Information

The following graph sets forth the hypothetical back-tested performance of the Underlying based on the hypothetical back-tested weekly Underlying closing values from January 7, 2005 through September 8, 2006, and the historical performance of the Underlying based on the weekly Underlying closing values from September 15, 2006 through July 9, 2010. The Underlying closing value on July 15, 2010 was 106.5028. We obtained the Underlying closing values below from Bloomberg Financial Markets. We make no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of the information obtained from Bloomberg Financial Markets.

The hypothetical back-tested and historical values of the Underlying should not be taken as an indication of future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the Underlying closing value on the pricing date or on the Observation Date. We cannot give you assurance that the performance of the Underlying will result in the return of any of your initial investment at maturity. The data for the hypothetical back-tested performance of the Commodity-IGAR set forth in the following graph was calculated on materially the same basis on which the performance of the Commodity-IGAR is now calculated, but the number of S&P GSCITM sub-indices, and thus the universe of potential constituent sub-indices, has changed over time. For example, in January 1991, there were only 17 S&P GSCITM sub-indices. There are currently 24 sub-indices. Hypothetical daily performance data for the Commodity-IGAR is net of index calculation costs of 0.96% per annum.

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.

Alternative modeling 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 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 chart above.

Supplemental Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)

We own, directly or indirectly, all of the outstanding equity securities of JPMSI, the agent for this offering. The net proceeds received from the sale of the notes will be used, in part, by JPMSI or one of its affiliates in connection with hedging our obligation under the notes. In accordance with NASD Rule 2720, JPMSI may not make sales in this offering to any of its discretionary accounts without the prior written approval of the customer.

We expect that delivery of the notes will be made against payment for the notes on or about the settlement date set forth on the front cover of this amended and restated term sheet, which will be the sixth business day following the expected pricing date of the notes (this settlement cycle being referred to as T+6). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to that trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on the pricing date or the two succeeding business days will be required to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement and should consult their own advisers.
