New Issue: JPMorgan prices $2.29 million high/low coupon callable yield notes on S&P 500, gold fund

By Jennifer Chiou

New York, Oct. 6 - JPMorgan Chase & Co. priced $2.29 million of high/low coupon callable yield notes due Oct. 10, 2012 linked to the S&P 500 index and the Market Vectors Gold Miners exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A knock-in event occurs if any component falls to or below 50% of its initial level during the life of the notes.

If a knock-in event does not occur during a monthly observation period, the coupon will be 15.25% for that period. If a knock-in event occurs during a monthly observation period, the coupon for that interest period and each subsequent monthly interest period will be 2%. Interest is payable monthly.

The notes are callable at par on any of the call dates: Jan. 9, April 9 and July 9, 2012.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either component falls to or below its knock-in level during the life of the notes, in which case investors will receive par plus the return of the worst-performing component, up to a maximum payout of par.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC is the agent.
