New Issue: JPMorgan prices $3.4 million high/low coupon callable yield notes on two funds, one index

By Toni Weeks

San Diego, June 30 - JPMorgan Chase & Co. priced $3.4 million of high/low coupon callable yield notes due June 29, 2012 linked to the Russell 2000 index, the Market Vectors Gold Miners exchange-traded fund and the iShares MSCI Brazil index fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A knock-out event occurs if any underlying component falls to or below 65% of its initial level during the life of the notes.

If a knock-out event never occurs, the coupon will be 12.75% per year.

If a knock-out event occurs during any monthly monitoring period, the coupon for that interest period and each subsequent interest period will be 4%. Interest is payable monthly.

The notes are callable at par on Dec. 30, 2011 and March 30, 2012.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any component falls to or below its knock-out 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.
