New Issue: JPMorgan prices $2.24 million 5% bearish autocallable yield notes tied to two ETFs

By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., Oct. 3 - JPMorgan Chase & Co. priced $2.24 million of 5% annualized bearish autocallable yield notes due April 4, 2013 linked to the better performing of the SPDR S&P Metals & Mining ETF and the Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest is payable monthly.

The notes will be called automatically at par plus accrued interest if the exchange-traded funds close at or below their initial levels on any of four monthly call dates.

A trigger event occurs if the closing price of either fund is greater than its initial price by more than the upside buffer amount - 41% of the initial price - on any day during the life of the notes.

If the notes are not called, the payout will be par plus accrued interest unless a trigger event has occurred and the final level of either fund is greater than its initial level, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% gain of the better performing fund.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC is the agent.
