New Issue: JPMorgan prices $3.82 million airbag phoenix autocallables linked to Valero Energy

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, April 24 - JPMorgan Chase & Co. priced $3.82 million of airbag phoenix autocallable optimization securities due Oct. 27, 2015 linked to Valero Energy Corp. shares, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 11.3% if Valero Energy shares close at or above the coupon barrier, 75% of the initial share price, on the observation date for that month.

The notes will be called at par plus the coupon if the stock closes at or above the initial share price on any quarterly observation date.

If the notes are not called, the payout at maturity will be par unless the final share price is less than the conversion price, in which case the payout will be a number of Valero Energy shares equal to $1,000 divided by the conversion price. The conversion price is 85% of the initial share price.

UBS Financial Services Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC are the agents.
