New Issue: JPMorgan prices $1 million contingent interest autocallables tied to Masco, Weatherford

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, May 16 - JPMorgan Chase & Co. priced $1 million of autocallable contingent interest notes due June 4, 2014 linked to the lesser performing of Masco Corp. shares and Weyerhaeuser Co. shares, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If each stock closes at or above its interest barrier, 65% of the initial price, on a quarterly review date, the notes will pay a contingent coupon of 2.9%, equivalent to 12.6% per year. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid that quarter.

If each stock closes at or above its initial price on any quarterly review date other than the final review date, the notes will be automatically called at par plus the contingent coupon.

A trigger event occurs if either stock finishes below the 65% trigger price.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon unless a trigger event occurs, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the lesser performing stock.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC is the agent.
