JPMorgan plans digital contingent coupon CDs due 2018 on 10 stocks

By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., July 3 - JPMorgan Chase & Co. plans to price digital contingent coupon certificates of deposit due July 31, 2018 linked to a basket of stocks, according to a term sheet.

The basket includes the common stocks of AT&T, Inc., Bristol-Meyers Squibb Co., Coca-Cola Co., Kimberly-Clark Corp., McDonald's Corp., Philip Morris International, Inc., Procter & Gamble Co., Reynolds American Inc., Southern Co. and Unilever plc.

Interest is payable annually and will equal the sum of the weighted performances of the basket stocks, subject to a minimum coupon of 0%. If a basket stock's underlying return is zero or positive, its performance will be equal to the coupon cap, which will be at least 5.75% and will be set at pricing. If the underlying return is negative, the basket component's performance will be the greater of the stock return and negative 15%.

The payout at maturity will be par.

The CDs (Cusip: 48124JN46) are expected to price July 26 and settle July 31.
