NOTES
[1] Past performance is not indicative of future returns. Hypothetical,
historical performance measures: Represent the performance of the ETF
Efficiente Index based on, as applicable to the relevant measurement period,
the hypothetical backtested daily closing levels through October 28, 2010, and
the actual historical performance of the ETF based on the daily closing level
from October 29, 2010 through April 30, 2012, as well as the performance of the
S&P 500 Index ("S&P 500"), and the Barclays Aggregate Bond Index (Excess
Return) over the same periods 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 ETF Efficiente Index will outperform the S&P 500 Index, the Barclays
Aggregate Bond Index (Excess Return) 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 S&P 500 Index and the Barclays Aggregate
Bond Index (Excess Return). Volatility represents the annualized standard
deviation of the relevant index's arithmetic daily returns since April 30,
2002. 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 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
[] There are risks associated with a momentum-based investment strategy--The
ETF Efficiente Index (the "Strategy") is different from a strategy that
seeks long-term exposure to a portfolio consisting of constant components
with fixed weights. The Strategy may fail to realize gains that could occur
from holding assets that have experienced price declines, but experience a
sudden price spike thereafter.
[] Correlation of performances among the basket constituents may reduce the
performance of strategy--performances among the basket constituents
comprising the index from time to time (the "Basket Constituents") may
become highly correlated from time to time during the term of your
investment. High correlation during periods of negative returns among Basket
Constituents representing any one sector or asset type that have a
substantial weighting in the Strategy could have a material adverse effect
on the performance of the Strategy.
[] Our affiliate, JPMSL, is the Calculation Agent and may adjust the Index in a
way that affects its level--The policies and judgments for which JPMSL is
responsible could have an impact, positive or negative, on the level of the
Index and the value of your investment. JPMSL is under no obligation to
consider your interest as an investor in securities linked to the Index.
[] The Index may not be successful, may not outperform any alternative strategy
related to the Basket Constituents, or may not achieve its target volatility
of 5%.
[] The investment strategy involves monthly rebalancing and maximum weighting
caps applied to the Basket Constituents by asset type and geographical
region.
[] Changes in the value of the Basket Constituents may offset each other.
[] An investment linked to the Index is subject to risks associated with
non-U.S. securities markets, such as emerging markets and currency exchange
risk.
[] The Index was established on October 29, 2010 and has a limited operating
history
