General
Key Terms
Index: |
CBOE S&P 500 BuyWrite IndexSM (the BXMSM Index or the Index) |
|
Payment at Maturity: |
Payment at maturity will reflect the performance of the Index less an annual issuers fee of 1.5%, which accrues daily over the term of the notes. The principal amount of your notes will be fully exposed to any decline in the Index. Accordingly, at maturity, you will receive an amount calculated as follows: |
|
$1,000 x [1 + (Index Return (1.5% x days since pricing date/365))] |
||
where days since pricing date is the number of calendar days from the pricing date to and including the Observation Date. If the calculation above produces a number that is less than zero, the payment at maturity will be zero. |
||
You will lose some or all of your investment if the BXMSM Index declines at all or increases by less than approximately 1.5411%. |
||
Issuers Fee: |
1.5% annual fee applied to the principal amount of the notes with daily accrual. Accordingly, you will lose some of the principal amount of your notes if any positive Index Return is less than approximately 1.5411%. |
|
Index Return: |
The performance of the Index from the Initial Index Level to the Ending Index Level, calculated as follows: |
|
|
Ending
Index Level Initial Index Level |

Hypothetical Examples of Amounts Payable at Maturity
The following examples illustrate how the total returns set forth in the table above are calculated.
Example 1: The level of the Index increases from an Initial Index Level of 820 to an Ending Index Level of 861. Because the Ending Index Level of 861 is greater than the Initial Index Level of 820, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $1,034.59 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:
$1,000 x [1 + (5% (1.5% x 375/365))] = $1,034.59
Example 2: The level of the Index decreases from an Initial Index Level of 820 to an Ending Index Level of 779. Because the Ending Index Level of 779 is less than the Initial Index Level of 820, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $934.59 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:
$1,000 x [1 + (-5% (1.5% x 375/365))] = $934.59
Selected Purchase Considerations
INVESTMENT EXPOSURE TO THE CBOE S&P 500 BUYWRITE INDEXSM The BXMSM Index measures the total rate of return of a hypothetical covered call strategy applied to the S&P 500® Index. This strategy consists of a hypothetical portfolio consisting of a long position indexed to the S&P 500® Index on which are deemed sold a succession of one-month, at-the-money or just out-of-the-money call options on the S&P 500® Index listed on the CBOE. Dividends paid on the component stocks underlying the S&P 500® Index are included in the calculation of the rate of return on the BXMSM Index on a daily basis.
LIMITED PROTECTION AGAINST LOSS The sale of a succession of one-month calls provides a degree of cushion against downside risk. However, because the theoretical proceeds from the sale of calls are nominally reinvested in the S&P 500® Index for purposes of calculating the BXMSM Index, you may lose some or all of the amount you invested if the S&P 500® Index declines. Because the notes are our senior unsecured obligations, payment of any amount at maturity is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.
DIVERSIFICATION OF THE BXMSM INDEX The return on the notes is linked to the performance of the BXMSM Index, which is in turn linked to the S&P 500® Index and the value of call options written on the S&P 500® Index. The S&P 500® Index consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity, and industry group representation. For additional information on the BXMSM Index and the S&P 500® Index, see the information set forth under The CBOE S&P 500 BuyWrite IndexSM and the S&P 500® Index, respectively, in the accompanying product supplement no. 28-I.

Selected Risk Considerations
An investment in the notes involves significant risks. Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the BXMSM Index or the S&P 500® Index or any of the component instruments of the BXMSM Index or the S&P 500® Index. These risks are explained in more detail in the Risk Factors section of the accompanying product supplement no. 28-I dated March 24, 2006.
YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS The notes do not guarantee any return of principal. The return on the notes is linked to the performance of the BXMSM Index and will depend on whether, and the extent to which, the Index Return is positive or negative. Your investment will be fully exposed to any decline in the Ending Index Level as compared to the Initial Index Level. Furthermore, you will lose a portion of the principal amount of your notes if any positive Index Return is less than approximately 1.5411%, assuming the notes priced on the expected pricing date set forth on the front cover of this term sheet.
LIMIT ON MONTHLY GROWTH OF THE BXMSM INDEX The potential increase of the BXMSM Index is limited by the call option nominally sold each month. The BXMSM Index is intended to track the performance of a buy-write strategy on the S&P 500® Index. A buy-write strategy will tend to underperform a direct investment in the S&P 500® Index during periods of rising stock prices. For additional information on the BXMSM Index, see the information set forth under The CBOE S&P 500 BuyWrite IndexSM in the accompanying product supplement no. 28-I.
CERTAIN BUILT-IN COSTS ARE LIKELY TO ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE NOTES PRIOR TO MATURITY While the payment at maturity described in this term sheet is based on the full principal amount of your notes, the original issue price of the notes includes the issuers fee, which fee will affect your payment at maturity. The issuers fee reflects a 12.5 basis points per month, or 1.5% per annum, fee that accrues on a daily basis and includes the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the notes. As a result, the price, if any, at which J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., whom we refer to as JPMSI, will be willing to purchase notes from you in secondary market transactions will likely be lower than the original issue price unless the Index appreciates significantly.
NO INTEREST OR DIVIDEND PAYMENTS OR VOTING RIGHTS As a holder of the notes, you will not receive interest payments, and you will not have voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends, call premiums or other distributions or other rights that holders of the instruments composing the BXMSM Index or the S&P 500® Index would have. Instead, dividends and call premiums are nominally reinvested in the S&P 500® Index each month.
LACK OF LIQUIDITY The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. JPMSI intends to offer to purchase the notes in the secondary market but is not required to do so. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the notes easily. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the notes, the price at which you may be able to trade your notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which JPMSI is willing to buy the notes.
POTENTIAL CONFLICTS We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the notes, including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the notes. In performing these duties, the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the notes. In addition, we are currently one of the companies that make up S&P 500® Index. We will not have any obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the notes in taking any corporate action that might affect the value of the S&P 500® Index and the notes.

Historical Information
The first graph below sets forth the historical performance of a hypothetical $1,000 investment in the BXMSM Index and a hypothetical $1,000 investment in the S&P 500® Total Return Index from April 4, 1997 through May 4, 2007. The S&P 500® Total Return Index is a measure of the total return of the stocks comprising the S&P 500® Index that includes dividends by adding the daily indexed dividend returns on those stocks to the daily price change of the S&P 500® Index. In each case, the performance of the hypothetical $1,000 investment is reported excluding any fees or other deductions that could be applicable to an actual investment linked to the BXMSM Index or the S&P 500® Total Return Index, such as the 1.5% annual issuers fee applicable to the notes.
The second graph below sets forth the historical performance of the BXMSM Index based on the weekly Index closing level from April 4, 1997 through May 4, 2007. The BXMSM Index closing level on May 9, 2007 was 821.60. We obtained the BXMSM Index closing levels, S&P 500® Total Return Index closing levels and other information 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 historical levels of the BXMSM Index do not reflect the 1.5% annual issuers fee included in an investment in the notes and should not be taken as an indication of future performance. No assurance can be given as to the BXMSM Index closing level on the Observation Date. We also cannot give you assurance that the performance of the BXMSM Index will result in the return of any of your initial investment.
Supplemental Underwriting Information
JPMSI, acting as agent for JPMorgan Chase & Co., will receive a commission that will depend on market conditions on the pricing date. In no event will that commission, which includes structuring and development fees, exceed $15.41 per $1,000 principal amount note. See Underwriting beginning on page PS-25 of the accompanying product supplement no. 28-I.
For a different portion of the notes to be sold in this offering, an affiliated bank will receive a fee and another affiliate will receive a structuring and development fee. In no event will the total amount of these fees exceed $15.41 per $1,000 principal amount note.
