SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index

Performance Update - September 2011

OVERVIEW

The SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index (the
"Index") provides investors with exposure to the "blue chip" names of the SandP
500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index. It also adds a volatility
control mechanism that targets 8% volatility by adjusting its level of exposure
to the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index. This volatility
control mechanism seeks to create a more consistent risk-return profile for the
Dividend Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Index.

Key Features of the Index

[]   Exposure to the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index, a
     group of 40 or more SandP 500[R] stocks with records of consistently
     increasing dividends over the past 25 years. SandP can relax this criterion
     if less than 40 names qualify.

[]   In an effort to maintain a constant annualized volatility of 8%, the Index
     uses an algorithm to dynamically adjust exposure daily.

[]   To adjust exposure, the Index has the ability to employ leverage of up to
     150% during periods of low volatility.

[]   Levels published daily by Standard and Poor's on Bloomberg. The SandP
     500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index targets 8%
     volatility and is published to Bloomberg under the ticker SPXD8UE.

Notes on performance, volatility, leverage and, Sharpe Ratio statistics

Hypothetical, historical performance measures: Represent the performance of the
Index based on, as applicable to the relevant measurement period, the
Hypothetical backtested daily Index closing levels from May 31, 2001 through
August 24, 2010, and the actual historical performance of the Index based on the
daily Index closing level from August 25, 2010 through August 31, 2011, 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 are calculated arithmetically (not
compounded). There is no guarantee the relevant Index will outperform the SandP
500[R] Total Return Index, the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return
Index or any alternative investment strategy. Sources: Bloomberg and JPMorgan.
Volatility is calculated from the historical returns, as applicable to the
relevant measurement period, of the SandP 500[R] Total Return Index, the SandP
500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index and the SandP 500[R] Dividend
Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index. Volatility represents the
annualized standard deviation of the relevant index's arithmetic daily returns
since July 31, 2001. The index leverage is the hypothetical back-tested amount
of exposure of the Index to the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return
Index and should not be considered indicative of the actual leverage that would
be assigned during an investment in the Index. 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. The
back-tested, hypothetical, historical annualized volatility and index leverage
have inherent limitations. These volatility and leverage 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 as shown. Alternative modeling
techniques or assumptions might produce significantly different results and may
prove to be more appropriate. Actual annualized volatilities and leverage may
vary materially from this analysis. Source: Bloomberg and JPMorgan.

Key Risks

[]   The Index has a limited operating history and may perform in unexpected
     ways. The Index began publishing on August 25, 2010 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.

[]   The Index may not be successful, may not outperform the SandP 500[R]
     Dividend Aristocrats Total Return 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 SandP 500[R] Dividend
     Aristocrats Total Return Index or any alternative strategy that might be
     employed to reduce the level of risk of the SandP 500[R] Dividend
     Aristocrats Total Return Index . We also can give no assurance that the
     Index will achieve its target volatility of 8%.

[]   The Index is not a total return index, and is subject to short-term money
     market fund borrowing costs-- As an "excess return" index, the SandP 500[R]
     Dividend Aristocrats Risk Control 8% Excess Return Index calculates the
     return on a leveraged or deleveraged investment in the SandP 500[R]
     Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index where the investment was made
     through the use of borrowed funds. Investments linked to this "excess
     return" index, which represents an unfunded position in the SandP 500[R]
     Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index , will be subject to short-term
     money market fund borrowing costs and will not include the "total return"
     feature or the cash component of the "total return" index, which represents
     a funded position in the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return
     Index .

[]   The Index represents portfolios consisting of the SandP 500[R] Dividend
     Aristocrats Total Return Index and a borrowing cost component accruing
     interest based on a synthetically rolling 3-month bond with reference to
     the 2-month and 3-month U.S. LIBOR rates. The Index dynamically adjusts its
     exposures to the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index based
     on the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index's historic
     volatility. The Index's' exposure to the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats
     Total Return Index will decrease when historical volatility causes the risk
     level of the SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index to reach
     a high threshold. If, at any time, the Index exhibits low exposure to the
     SandP 500[R] Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index and the SandP 500[R]
     Dividend Aristocrats Total Return Index subsequently appreciates
     significantly, the Index will not participate fully in this appreciation.
