By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., Oct. 15 - JPMorgan Chase & Co. priced $3.05 million contingent coupon callable yield notes due Oct. 19, 2015 linked to Valero Energy Corp. shares, according to a 424B2 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the stock closes at or above its barrier level, 65% of its initial level, on a quarterly observation date, the notes will pay a coupon at an annualized rate of 11.1% for that quarter.

The payout at maturity will be par unless Valero stock finishes below its barrier level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline in the share price.

The notes are callable at par on any interest payment date.
