JPMorgan plans to price capped index knock-out notes tied to S&P 500

By Marisa Wong

Milwaukee, May 25 - JPMorgan Chase & Co. plans to price 0% capped index knock-out notes due Dec. 5, 2011 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to an FWP filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A knock-out event occurs if the index falls by more 35.3% at any time during the life of the notes.

If a knock-out event occurs, the payout at maturity will be par plus the index return, which could be positive or negative.

If a knock-out event has not occurred, the payout will be par plus the greater of the index return and a contingent minimum return of at least 10%. The exact minimum will be set at pricing.

In both cases, the payout is subject to a maximum return of at least 30% that will be set at pricing.

The notes are expected to price on May 28 and settle on June 3.

J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. is the agent.
