New Issue: JPMorgan prices $2.02 million annual review notes linked to S&P 500, Euro Stoxx 50

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Dec. 26 - JPMorgan Chase & Co. priced $2.02 million of 0% lesser index annual review notes due Jan. 10, 2011 linked to the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Euro Stoxx 50 indexes, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If each index is at or above its call level on a review date, the notes will be called. The call level for each index is 90% of its initial level for the first review date and 100% of its initial level for the second and third review dates.

Investors will receive par plus 15.3% if the notes are called on Jan. 5, 2009, par plus 30.6% if called on Jan. 5, 2010 and par plus 45.9% if called on Jan. 5, 2011.

If the notes are not called, the payout at maturity will be par unless one or both indexes decline by more than 10%. Investors will lose 1.1111% for every 1% decline in the lesser-performing index beyond 10%.

J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. is the agent.
