Index: | The Philadelphia Stock Exchange, Inc. Housing SectorSM Index (the PHLX Housing SectorSM Index or the Index). |
Return Leverage Factor: | 3 |
Payment at Maturity: | If the Ending Index Level is less than the Initial Index Level (i.e., the Index declines), you will receive a cash payment that provides you a return per $1,000 principal amount note equal to the Index Change multiplied by three, subject to a Maximum Total Return on the note of 52.5%. For example, if the Index Change is more than 17.5%, you will receive the Maximum Total Return on the note of 52.5%, which entitles you to the maximum final payment of $1,525 for every $1,000 principal amount of note you hold. Accordingly, if the Index Change is positive (i.e., the Index declines), your final payment per $1,000 principal amount note will, subject to the Maximum Total Return, be calculated as follows: |
$1,000 + [$1,000 x (Index Change x 3)] |
| The actual Maximum Total Return on the note will be set on the pricing date and will not be less than 52.5%. |
Your principal is protected up to a 20% increase in the Index. Therefore, if the Index Change is between 0% and 20%, you will receive the principal amount of your notes at maturity. | |
If the Ending Index Level increases by more than 20%, you will lose 1.25% of the principal amount of your notes for every 1% that the Index increases beyond 20%. Your final payment per $1,000 principal amount note will be calculated as follows: | |
$1,000 + ($1,000 x (Index Change + 20%) x 1.25) | |
You will lose some or all of your investment at maturity if the Ending Index Level increases from the Initial Index Level by more than 20%, provided that the final payment per note shall not be less than $0. | |

If the notes priced today, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., whom we refer to as JPMSI, acting as agent for JPMorgan Chase & Co., would receive a commission of approximately $42.25 per $1,000 principal amount note and would use a portion of that commission to pay selling concessions to other dealers of not more than $20.00 per $1,000 principal amount note. The actual commission received by JPMSI may be more or less than $42.25 and will depend on market conditions on the pricing date. In no event will the commission received by JPMSI, which includes concessions to be paid to other dealers, exceed $70.00 per $1,000 principal amount note. See Underwriting beginning on page PS-20 of the accompanying product supplement no. 6-I.

What is the Total Return on the Notes at Maturity Assuming a Range of Performance for the Index? The following table illustrates the hypothetical total return at maturity on the notes. The total return as used in this term sheet is the number, expressed as a percentage, that results from comparing the payment at maturity per $1,000 principal amount note to $1,000. The hypothetical total returns set forth below assume a Maximum Total Return on the notes of 52.5%. The hypothetical total returns set forth below are for illustrative purposes only and may not be the actual total returns applicable to a purchaser of the notes. The numbers appearing in the following table have been rounded for ease of analysis. |

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 decreases from the Initial Index Level of 520 to an Ending Index Level of 468. Because the Ending Index Level of 468 is less than the Initial Index Level of 520 and the Index Change of 10% multiplied by three does not exceed the hypothetical Maximum Total Return of 52.5%, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $1,300 per $1,000 principal amount note. Payment at maturity per $1,000 principal amount note = $1,000 + ($1,000 x (10% x 3)) = $1,300

Example 2: The level of the Index increases from the Initial Index Level of 520 to an Ending Index Level of 572. Because the Ending Index Level of 572 is greater than the Initial Index Level of 520, and because that increase is less than 20%, the investor will receive a payment at maturity of $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount note. Example 3: The level of the Index decreases from the Initial Index Level of 520 to an Ending Index Level of 312. Because the Index Change of 40% multiplied by three exceeds the hypothetical Maximum Total Return of 52.5%, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $1,525 per $1,000 principal amount note, the maximum final payment on the notes. Example 4: The level of the Index increases from the Initial Index Level of 520 to an Ending Index Level of 728. Because the Ending Index Level of 728 is greater than the Initial Index Level of 520, the Index Change is negative and the investor will receive a payment at maturity of $750 per $1,000 principal amount note. $1,000 + ($1,000 x [-40% +20%] x 1.25) = $750 Historical Information The following graph sets forth the historical performance of the PHLX Housing SectorSM Index based on the weekly Index closing level from January 1, 2001 through December 30, 2005. The Index closing level on December 30, 2005 was 518.08. We obtained the Index closing levels and other information below from Bloomberg Financial Markets, and accordingly, make no representation or warranty as to their accuracy or completeness. The historical levels of the Index should not be taken as an indication of future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the Index closing level on the Observation Date. We cannot give you assurance that the performance of the Index will result in the return of any of your initial investment. |
