New Issue: JPMorgan prices $22.14 million notes linked to buffered return enhanced indexes

By Toni Weeks

San Diego, Feb. 14 - JPMorgan Chase & Co. priced $22.14 million of 0% notes due Feb. 27, 2013 linked to a weighted basket of three buffered return enhanced components, each converted into dollars, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The basket includes the Euro Stoxx 50 index with a 55% weight, the Topix index with a 23% weight and the FTSE 100 index with a 22% weight. Their underlying currencies are the euro, the Japanese yen and the British pound sterling, respectively.

The adjusted closing level for each basket index on any day is equal to the index's closing level multiplied by the exchange rate of the underlying currency that day.

The final level for each basket index will equal the average of the adjusted closing levels on the five trading days ending Feb. 22, 2013.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the basket return, which will equal the sum of the weighted component returns of the basket indexes.

If an index finishes above the initial level, its component return will be double the underlying return, up to a maximum return of 19.5% for each index.

If an index falls by up to 10%, its component return will be zero.

If an index falls by more than 10%, its component return will be 0% minus 1.1111% for every 1% decline beyond 10%.

The maximum payout at maturity is $1,195 per $1,000 principal amount of notes.
