JPMorgan Alerian MLP Index ETNs
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OVERVIEW
JPMorgan Alerian MLP Index Exchange Traded Notes ("ETNs") provide convenient
access to midstream energy MLPs. The ETNs pay a variable quarterly coupon
linked to the cash distributions paid on the MLPs in the index, less accrued
tracking fees(1). The ETN coupons are reported on Form 1099s and therefore
eliminate the administrative burden associated with K-1 forms. Investors can
trade the ETNs on the NYSE, Arca exchange or receive a cash payment at the
scheduled maturity or upon early repurchase(2), based on the performance of the
index. The ETNs are senior, unsecured obligations of JPMorgan Chase & Co.

Sources: Bloomberg, JPMorgan. Calculated as of May 29, 2009. The standard
deviation and correlation are based on monthly returns over the past 5 years.
The returns, standard deviations and correlations are provided for
informational purposes only. Correlation refers to correlation of the relevant
index to the Alerian MLP Index. The returns are total returns which reflect the
performance of each index including dividends. Historical performance of the
Index is not indicative of future performance of the Index or the ETNs. There
is no guarantee that the Index or the ETNs will outperform any investment
strategy.
1. The "Accrued Tracking Fee" for a given coupon period, as more fully
described in the relevant pricing supplement, represents an amount equal to the
Tracking Fee of 0.85% per annum accrued for that coupon period multiplied by
the Current Indicative Value on the Index Business Day prior to the date of
determination, plus the aggregate amounts, if any, by which the previous
Accrued Tracking Fees have exceeded the cash distributions, if any, made by the
underlying MLPs.
2. Investors may request on a weekly basis that the Issuer repurchase a minimum
of 50,000 notes prior to the maturity date, subject to the procedures described
in the relevant pricing supplement. Early repurchases will be subject to a
Repurchase Fee of 0.125%, as further described in the relevant pricing
supplement.
3. The intraday indicative value of the ETNs (the "IIV") is meant to
approximate the intrinsic economic value of an ETN. The IIV calculation will be
provided for reference purposes only. It is not intended as a price or
quotation. The IIV will be based on the intraday indicative values of the
Index, and may not be equal to the payment at maturity or upon early
repurchase. Please see the relevant pricing supplement for details.
4. Current yield equals the most recent coupon annualized and divided by the
closing price of the ETN on May 29, 2009, and rounded to one decimal place for
ease of presentation. The coupons are based on the cash distributions, if any,
paid on the underlying MLPs, less the Accrued Tracking Fee. The coupons are
variable and may be zero.

MLP Overview:
What are MLPs? Master Limited Partnerships ("MLPs") are limited partnerships
that are publicly traded on a U.S. securities exchange. The majority of MLPs
currently operate in the energy infrastructure industry, owning assets such as
pipelines that transport crude oil, natural gas and other refined petroleum
products. MLPs typically generate fee-based revenues, which tend not to be
directly tied to changes in commodity prices.
Why invest in MLPs? MLPs provide relatively low correlation to a wide range of
asset classes including equities and commodities and have produced attractive
historical yields compared to other income-oriented investments.
Benefits of Investing in the ETNs
Exposure to a portfolio of energy MLPs through a single investment.
Income via quarterly coupons linked to the cash distributions, if any, paid on
the MLPs in the Index, less fees.
No K-1 forms will be received by investors in the ETNs. The coupons are
reported as ordinary income on Form 1099. There is no leverage to the MLPs in
the ETN performance.
Hypothetical, Historical Total Return Index Performance
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[GRAPHIC OMITTED]
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sources: Bloomberg, JPMorgan. As of May 29, 2009. Each of these indices was
calculated based on a level for such index set equal to 100% on December 29,
1995. Hypothetical, historical performance of the Index is not indicative of
future performance of the Index or the ETNs. Fluctuations in the Index may be
more or less than that for the value of the ETNs. All returns displayed above
reflect the index performance including dividends, and are calculated without
deducting any applicable transaction fees. There is no guarantee that the Index
or the ETNs will outperform any alternative investment strategy. Your payment
at maturity or upon early repurchase of the ETNs, as more fully described in
the relevant pricing supplement is based on the VWAP Level of the Alerian MLP
Index which excludes dividends. The VWAP Level of the Index will most likely
differ from its closing level.
What are the main risks in the ETNs?
The ETNs may result in a loss.
The ETNs are exposed to the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase & Co.
The ETNs may not have an active trading market and may not continue to be
listed over their term.
The payment at maturity or upon early repurchase of the ETNs will be based on
the VWAP Level of the Index and not on the closing level of the Index. The VWAP
Level of the Index will most likely differ from the closing level of the Index
or the IIV.
The coupon payments on the ETNs will be variable and may be zero. The Accrued
Tracking Fee reduces the potential coupons and/or the payment at maturity or
upon early repurchase.
The Issuer's obligation to repurchase the ETNs is on a weekly basis, and is
subject to substantial minimum size restrictions.
You will not know how much you will receive upon early repurchase at the time
that you elect we repurchase your ETNs.
The risks identified above are not exhaustive. You should also review carefully
the related "Risk Factors" section of the relevant product supplement and the
"Selected Risk Considerations" in the relevant pricing supplement.
