JPMorgan plans notes on buffered return enhanced indexes, currencies

By Toni Weeks

San Diego, May 8 - JPMorgan Chase & Co. plans to price 0% capped buffered return enhanced notes due May 30, 2013 linked to three buffered return enhanced components and their related currencies, according to an FWP filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The basket consists of the Euro Stoxx 50 index with a 55% weight, the FTSE 100 index with a 22% weight and the Topix index with a 23% weight.

The related currencies are the euro for the Euro Stoxx, the pound for the FTSE 100 and the yen for the Topix.

The basket return will equal the sum of the weighted component returns for the three basket components.

For each index, the underlying return will be the return of the index multiplied by the return of its related currency relative to the dollar.

If an index's underlying return is positive, its component return will be double the underlying return, subject to a maximum return of at least 19.1%. The exact maximum return will be set at pricing.

If an index's underlying return is flat or negative but not less than negative 10%, its component return will be 0%. If an index's underlying return is less than negative 10%, its component return will be 0% minus 1.1111% for every 1% that the underlying return is less than negative 10%.

The notes (Cusip: 48125VYD6) are expected to price May 11 and settle May 16.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC will act as placement agent.
