Securities linked to JPMorgan ETF Efficiente 5 Index (the "Strategy") are our
senior unsecured obligations and are not secured debt. Investing in these
securities is not equivalent to a direct investment in the Strategy or any
index fund that forms part of the Strategy.
Investments in securities linked to the Strategy require investors to assess
several characteristics and risk factors that may not be present in other types
of transactions. In reaching a determination as to the appropriateness of any
proposed transaction, clients should undertake a thorough independent review of
the legal, regulatory, credit, tax, accounting and economic consequences of
such transaction in relation to their particular circumstances. This free
writing prospectus contains market data from various sources other than us and
our affiliates, and, accordingly, we make no representation or warranty as to
the market data's accuracy or completeness. All information is subject to
change without notice. We or our affiliated companies may make a market or deal
as principal in the securities mentioned in this document or in options,
futures or other derivatives based thereon.
Use of Simulated Returns
Any historical composite performance records included in this free writing
prospectus are hypothetical and it should be noted that the constituents have
not traded together in the manner shown in the composite historical replication
of the indices included in this free writing prospectus. No representation is
being made that the Strategy will achieve a composite performance record
similar to that shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between
a hypothetical historical composite performance record and the actual record
that the combination of those underlying elements subsequently achieved.
Back-testing and other statistical analysis material that is provided in
connection with the explanations of the potential returns of the securities
linked to the Strategy use simulated analysis and hypothetical circumstances to
estimate how it may have performed prior to its actual existence. For time
periods prior to the launch of an exchange-traded fund included in the Strategy
and such exchange-traded fund's initial satisfaction of a minimum liquidity
standard, back-testing uses alternative performance information derived from a
related index, after deducting hypothetical fund fees, rather than performance
information for such exchange-traded fund.
The results obtained from "back-testing" information should not be considered
indicative of the actual results that might be obtained from an investment or
participation in a financial instrument or transaction referencing the Index.
J.P. Morgan provides no assurance or guarantee that the securities linked to
the Index will operate or would have operated in the past in a manner
consistent with these materials. The hypothetical historical levels presented
herein have not been verified by an independent third party, and such
hypothetical historical levels have inherent limitations.

Overview
The JPMorgan ETF Efficiente 5 Index (the "Index," the "Strategy," or "ETF
Efficiente") is a member of J.P. Morgan's family of Efficiente indices, which
generally seek to provide exposure to a range of asset classes and geographic
regions based on the modern portfolio theory approach to asset allocation. ETF
Efficiente leverages the convenience of exchange-traded funds ("ETF"s) as well
as the rapidly growing investment options available with ETFs to provide
exposure to a wide range of asset classes and regions. The Index selects from a
basket of 12 ETFs (the "ETF Constituents") and the JPMorgan Cash Index USD 3
Month (the "Cash Index"). The ETF Constituents, together with the Cash Index,
are referred to as the Basket Constituents.
Key features of the Index include:
[] the use of ETFs to provide access to a broad range of asset classes and
geographic regions;
[] exposure to developed market equities, bonds (including Treasuries and
corporate bonds), emerging markets, alternative investments (broad commodities
exposure, gold and real estate) and inflation;
[] the weights allocated to the Basket Constituents are dynamic and are
determined monthly based on a rules-based methodology that targets an
annualized volatility of 5% or less;
[] an algorithmic portfolio construction which utilizes momentum and
correlation across asset classes;
[] the Index is an excess return index and reflects the weighted performance of
the Basket Constituents (including reinvested dividends for the ETF
Constituents) in excess of the performance of the Cash Index; and
[] the Index levels incorporate the daily deduction fee of 0.50% per annum and
are published on Bloomberg under the ticker EEJPUS5E.
The table and graph below illustrate the performance of the Index based on the
hypothetical back-tested closing levels from December 31, 2004 through October
29, 2010 and actual performance from October 30, 2010 to December 31, 2014.
Based on the hypothetical back-tested performance, the Index realized
annualized returns of 5.12% per annum over the period. There is no guarantee
that ETF Efficiente will outperform the SandP 500 Index or the Barclays Capital
Aggregate Index during the term of your investment in securities linked to the
Index.

Morgan Note: Because the Index did not exist prior to October 29, 2010, all retrospective levels provided in the graph and table above are simulated and must be considered illustrative only. The simulated data was constructed using certain procedures that may vary from the procedures used to calculate the Index going forward, and on the basis of certain assumptions that may not hold during future periods. The variations in procedures used in producing simulated historical data from those used to calculate the Index going forward could produce differences in returns of indeterminate direction and amount. Past hypothetical performance results are neither indicative of nor a guarantee of future returns. Actual results will vary, potentially materially, from the hypothetical historical performance described herein. Please see "Important Information" at the front of this publication for a discussion of certain additional limitations of back-testing and simulated returns. "Return" is the percentage return of the relevant index over the period indicated, and where "Annualized" is indicated, is the annual compounded return of the relevant index over the period "Annualized volatility" is the annualized standard deviation of the daily returns of the relevant index for the full period from December 31, 2004 to December 31, 2014. "SandP 500 Index Excess Return" represents a hypothetical index constructed from the total returns of the SandP 500 Index with the returns of the Cash Index deducted "Barclays Aggregate Index Excess Return" represents a hypothetical index constructed from the returns of the Barclays Aggregate Index with the returns of the Cash Index deducted Growth Trend of Assets Under Management in ETFs The ETF industry has grown rapidly since 2002, with total assets under management increasing from approximately $100 billion at the end of 2002 to approximately $1.7 trillion as of December 2013, as illustrated in the chart. There are now over 1500 ETFs listed in the United States covering a range of asset classes and investment styles. Source: State Street Global Advisors. GRAPHIC OMMITTED |

Strategy description The Index employs an allocation strategy based on modern portfolio theory. The modern portfolio theory approach to asset allocation suggests how a rational investor should allocate capital across the available universe of assets to maximize return for a given risk appetite. The Index uses the concept of an "efficient frontier" to define the asset allocation of the Index. An efficient frontier for a portfolio of assets defines the optimal return of the portfolio for a given amount of risk, using the volatility of returns of hypothetical portfolios as the measure of risk. Illustration of the Efficient Frontier GRAPHIC OMMITTED On a monthly basis, J.P. Morgan Securities Ltd., acting as the ETF Efficiente calculation agent, will rebalance the Index to determine the allocations to the Basket Constituents based on the mathematical rules that govern the Index. The weights for each Basket Constituent will be determined subject to certain weighting constraints, including constraints on the weight of each Basket Constituent as well as constraints on the sum of the weights of Basket Constituents within a sector. For more information on the weighting constraints related to the Basket Constituents comprising the Index, see "What are the Basket Constituents?". The Index seeks to identify the weights for each Basket Constituent that would have resulted in the hypothetical portfolio with the highest return over the previous six months while realizing an annualized volatility over the same period of 5% or less. Thus, the portfolio exhibiting the highest return with an annualized volatility of 5% or less is selected, and the weighting for such portfolio is applied to the Basket Constituents. This forms the practical application of the modern portfolio theory and the efficient frontier. No assurance can be given that the ETF Efficiente Index will achieve its target volatility of 5%. The actual realized volatility of the Index may be greater or less than 5%. On each selection date for the monthly rebalancing of the Index, the weighting algorithm implements the following steps: [] ETF Efficiente identifies all Eligible Portfolios as described under "What are the Basket Constituents?" and calculates the performance for each portfolio for an observation period over the previous six months. [] For each Eligible Portfolio, ETF Efficiente calculates the annualized realized volatility over that same observation period. [] The performance and the volatilities of the Eligible Portfolios are used to construct the "efficient frontier." [] ETF Efficiente selects the Eligible Portfolio with the strongest performance that has an annualized realized volatility equal to or less than 5%. If no such portfolio exists, the target volatility is increased in increments of 1%, and the selection procedure is repeated until a portfolio is identified. |
 |
The Index is an excess return index and reflects the weighted performance of
the Basket Constituents (including reinvested dividends for the ETF
Constituents) in excess of the performance of the Cash Index. The Index levels
also incorporate the daily deduction of a fee of 0.50% per annum.
The ETF Efficiente calculation agent will publish the Index values for the
Index on Bloomberg, subject to the occurrence of a market disruption event. You
can find the current Index value on Bloomberg under the ticker EEJPUS5E.
There is no guarantee that the concept of an efficient frontier combined with
modern portfolio theory will generate positive returns for the Index or that
other theories applied to the portfolio of the Basket Constituents would not
produce a better result than an investment linked to the Index.
What are the Basket Constituents?

and the Basket Constituents.
An Eligible Portfolio is any hypothetical portfolio composed of the above
Basket Constituents whose weights satisfy the following weighting constraints:
[] The minimum possible weight assigned to any Basket Constituent is 0%.
[] The weight assigned to each Basket Constituent is an integral multiple of
5%.
[] The maximum possible weight assigned to any Basket Constituent is 20%, with
the exception of (i) the JPMorgan Cash Index USD 3 Month or the iShares[R] TIPS
Bond ETF, each of which have a maximum possible weight of 50%; and (ii) the
iShares[R] Russell 2000 ETF, the iShares[R] SandP GSCI Commodity-Indexed Trust or
the SPDR[R] Gold Trust, each of which have a maximum possible weight of 10%.
Under certain circumstances, the weighting of the JPMorgan Cash Index USD 3
Month may be greater than 50%. The weight of the JPMorgan Cash Index USD 3
Month at any given time represents the portion of the Index that is uninvested
at that time.
|

[] The maximum possible weight assigned to (i) either the Developed Equity or
the Bonds sector is 50%; and (ii) either the Emerging Markets or the
Alternative Investments sector is 25%. In addition, the sum of the weights
assigned to the JPMorgan Cash Index USD 3 Month and the iShares([R]) TIPS Bond
ETF cannot exceed 50%.
[] The sum of the weights assigned to all Basket Constituents will be equal to
100%.
Historical analysis
The Index aims to provide exposure across a diverse spectrum of asset classes
and geographic regions.
Diversified exposure
As illustrated in the table below, equities (as represented by the SandP 500
Index) and bonds (as represented by the Barclays Capital Aggregate Index) have
historically displayed negative correlation. Correlation can be described as a
measure of the degree to which two components change relative to each other. A
diversified approach to investing would stipulate maintaining exposure to a
variety of asset classes to attempt to generate positive returns in a wide
range of market environments.
Based on the rebalancing methodology and the constraints described in "What are
the Basket Constituents?", ETF Efficiente can dynamically allocate to the
Basket Constituents in response to the current market environment, with the
potential to exploit any low historical correlations exhibited by the Basket
Constituents. The hypothetical correlations below illustrate that returns of
the Index have historically not been overly dependent on either bonds or
equities.

hypothetical, historical correlations in the summary above.
Targeting volatility
As described in "Strategy description," the Index targets an annualized
realized volatility of 5%. The graph below illustrates the hypothetical
six-month realized volatility of the Index as well as that of the SandP 500 Index
and the Barclays Capital Aggregate Index between May 2005 and November 2014.
Volatility is a measurement of the variability of returns. The historical, or
"realized," volatility of a portfolio can be measured in a number of ways. For
the purposes of the graph below, volatility is calculated from the historical
daily returns of the indices over a six-month observation period.
For any given day, the "six-month annualized volatility" is the annualized
standard deviation of the daily returns of the relevant index using the closing
levels of the index during the 126 index-day period preceding that day. For
example, for the day, October 31, 2010, the data point on the graph for that
day represents the annualized standard deviation of the daily returns using
closing levels of the relevant index during the 126 index-days up to and
including October 31, 2010.

Morgan Note: The hypothetical, historical six-month annualized volatility levels of ETF Efficiente, the SandP 500([R]) Index, and the Barclays Aggregate Index, are presented for informational purposes only. The back-tested, hypothetical, historical six-month annualized volatility has inherent limitations. These volatility levels reflect historical performance (and in the case of the Index hypothetical historical performance). No representation is made that in the future ETF Efficiente, the SandP 500([R]) Index or the Barclays Aggregate Index will have the volatilities as shown above. There is no guarantee that ETF Efficiente will outperform any alternative investment strategy, including the Barclays Aggregate Index or the SandP 500([R]) Index. Alternative modeling techniques or assumptions might produce significantly different results and may prove to be more appropriate. Actual six-month annualized volatilities will vary, perhaps materially, from this analysis. Please see "Important Information" at the front of this publication for a discussion of certain additional limitations of back-testing and simulated returns. Hypothetical historical sector weightings The following graph illustrates the hypothetical historical allocation to the various sectors, the Cash Index (labeled as "Cash") or the iShares([R]) TIPS Bond Fund (labeled as "Inflation") based on the rebalancing mechanics set forth under the "Strategy description." For a detailed description of which Basket Constituents make up each sector displayed in this graph, please see "What are the Basket Constituents?".

Risks associated with the Strategy THE STRATEGY COMPRISES NOTIONAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES--The exposures to the dynamic basket that tracks the excess returns of the Basket Constituents above the JPMorgan Cash Index USD 3 Month are purely notional. There is no actual portfolio of assets to which any person is entitled or in which any person has any ownership interest. THERE ARE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH A MOMENTUM-BASED INVESTMENT STRATEGY--The Strategy employs a mathematical model intended to implement what is known as a momentum-based investment strategy, which seeks to capitalize on positive market price trends based on the supposition that positive market price trends may continue. This Strategy is different from a strategy that seeks long-term exposure to a portfolio consisting of constant components with fixed weights. The Strategy may fail to realize gains that could occur from holding assets that have experienced price declines, but experience a sudden price spike thereafter. CORRELATION OF PERFORMANCES AMONG THE BASKET CONSTITUENTS MAY REDUCE PERFORMANCE OF THE STRATEGY--Performances among the Basket Constituents may become highly correlated from time to time during the term of your investment. High correlation during periods of negative returns among Basket Constituents representing any one sector or asset type that have a substantial weighting in the Strategy could have a material adverse effect on the performance of the Strategy. THE INDEX MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL, OUTPERFORM ANY ALTERNATIVE STRATEGY THAT MIGHT BE EMPLOYED IN RESPECT OF THE BASKET CONSTITUENTS OR ACHIEVE ITS TARGET VOLATILITY --The Index follows a notional rules-based proprietary strategy that operates on the basis of pre-determined rules. No assurance can be given that the investment strategy on which the Index is based will be successful or that the Index will outperform any alternative strategy that might be employed in respect of the Basket Constituents. Furthermore, no assurance can be given that the Index will achieve its target volatility of 5%. The actual realized volatility of the Index may be greater or less than 5%. THE COMMODITY FUTURES CONTRACTS UNDERLYING THE iSHARES([R]) SandP GSCI COMMODITY-INDEXED TRUST ARE SUBJECT TO UNCERTAIN LEGAL AND REGULATORY REGIMES--The commodity futures contracts that underlie the iShares([R]) SandP GSCI Commodity-Indexed Trust are subject to legal and regulatory regimes that may change in ways that could adversely affect our ability to hedge our obligations under the Strategy or your investment linked to the Strategy. Under these circumstances, we may, in our sole and absolute discretion, determine your payment at maturity early. Because we will not make this early determination payment until the maturity date, the amount you receive at maturity will not reflect any further appreciation of the Strategy after such early determination. OUR AFFILIATE, J.P. MORGAN SECURITIES LTD., OR JPMSL, IS THE CALCULATION AGENT AND MAY ADJUST THE STRATEGY IN A WAY THAT AFFECTS ITS LEVEL--The policies and judgments for which JPMSL is responsible could have an impact, positive or negative, on the level of the Strategy and the value of your investment. JPMSL is under no obligation to consider your interest as an investor in securities linked to the Strategy. OTHER KEY RISKS: [] The Index Levels incorporate the daily deduction of a fee of 0.50% per annum [] The Strategy may not be successful, may not outperform any alternative strategy related to the Basket Constituents and may not achieve its target volatility of 5%. [] The investment strategy involves monthly rebalancing and maximum weighting caps that are applied to the Basket Constituents by asset type and geographical region. [] Changes in the value of the Basket Constituents may offset each other. [] The ETF Efficiente Index may be partially uninvested, which could result in a portion or most of the ETF Efficiente Index reflecting no return. [] An investment in securities linked to the Strategy is subject to risks associated with non-U.S. markets, including emerging markets. [] The securities linked to the Strategy are subject to currency exchange risk. |
