The terms of the notes
as set forth below, to the extent they differ or conflict with those set forth in the accompanying product supplement no. 1-I,
will supersede the terms set forth in product supplement no. 1-I. In particular, whether the Accrual Provision is satisfied will
depend on the Six-Month USD LIBOR and the Index Level on the applicable Accrual Determination Date (rather than on the Six-Month
USD LIBOR on a LIBOR Determination Date and the Index Level on an Equity Index Determination Date as described in product supplement
1-I), as set forth below, and interest will be payable to the holders of record at the close of business on the business day immediately
preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date. Please refer to “Additional Key Terms — Accrual

|
Key Terms
Maturity Date:
|
If the notes have not been redeemed, April 16, 2027, or if such day is not a business day, the next succeeding business day
|
Payment at Maturity:
|
If the notes have not been redeemed, at maturity you will receive a cash payment for each $1,000 principal amount note of $1,000
plus
any accrued and unpaid interest.
|
Redemption Feature:
|
At our option, we may redeem the notes, in whole but not in part, on the 16th calendar day of January, April, July and October of each year, commencing April 16, 2013 (each, a “Redemption Date”) by providing at least 5 business days’ notice;
provided, however,
that if any Redemption Date is not a business day, then such Redemption Date shall be the following business day. If the notes are redeemed, you will receive on the applicable Redemption Date a cash payment equal to $1,000 for each $1,000 principal amount note redeemed. Any accrued and unpaid interest on notes redeemed will be paid to the person who is the holder of record of such notes at the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the applicable Redemption Date.
|
Interest:
|
With respect to each Interest Period, for each $1,000 principal amount note, the interest payment will be calculated as follows:
|
|
$1,000 × Interest Rate × (number of days in the Interest Period / 360),
|
|
where the number of days in the Interest Period will be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days with twelve months of thirty days each.
|
Interest Rate:
|
With respect to each Interest Period, a rate per annum, calculated as follows:
|
|
Interest Factor ×
|
Variable
Days
Actual Days
|
, where
|
|
“Variable Days” is the actual number of calendar days during such Interest Period on which the Accrual Provision is satisfied, and “Actual Days” means, with respect to each Interest Payment Date, the actual number of calendar days in the Interest Period.
|
|
The Interest Rate may not equal the Interest Factor during any Interest Period. The Interest Rate will depend on the number of calendar days during any given Interest Period on which the Accrual Provision is satisfied and may be zero.
|
Interest Factor:
|
7.00% per annum
|
Interest Period:
|
The period beginning on and including the issue date of the notes and ending on but excluding the first Interest Payment Date and each successive period beginning on and including an Interest Payment Date and ending on but excluding the next succeeding Interest Payment Date

(1) The price to the public includes the estimated cost of hedging
our obligations under the notes through one or more of our affiliates.
(2) J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, which we refer to as JPMS, acting
as agent for JPMorgan Chase & Co., will receive a commission of $50.38 per $1,000 principal amount note and will use a portion
of that commission to allow selling concessions to other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers of $25.27 per $1,000 principal amount
note. This commission will include the projected profits that our affiliates expect to realize, some of which will be allowed
to other unaffiliated dealers, for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the notes. The concessions of $25.27
include concessions to be allowed to selling dealers and concessions to be allowed to any arranging dealer. See “Plan of
Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)” beginning on page PS-42 of the accompanying product supplement no. 1-I.
(3) JPMS sold the notes in one or more negotiated transactions at
varying prices determined at the time of each sale, which were at market prices prevailing, at prices related to such prevailing
prices or at negotiated prices, provided that such prices were not less than $975.00 per $1,000 principal amount note and not more
than $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount note. See “Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)” beginning on page

E medium-term notes of which these notes are a part, and the more detailed information contained in product supplement no. 1-I
dated November 14, 2011 and underlying supplement no. 1-I dated November 14, 2011.
This pricing supplement, together with the
documents listed below, contains the terms of the notes, supplements the term sheet related hereto dated March 27, 2012 and supersedes
all other prior or contemporaneous oral statements as well as any other written materials including preliminary or indicative pricing
terms, correspondence, trade ideas, structures for implementation, sample structures, fact sheets, brochures or other educational
materials of ours.
You should carefully consider, among other things, the matters set forth in “Risk Factors” in
the accompanying product supplement no. 1-I and the accompanying underlying supplement no. 1-I, as the notes involve risks not
associated with conventional debt securities. We urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers
before you invest in the notes.
You may access these documents on the SEC website at
www.sec.gov
as follows (or if such address has changed, by reviewing our filings for the relevant date on the SEC website):

JPMorgan Chase & Co.
Additional Key Terms
Interest Payment Dates:
|
Interest on the notes will be payable quarterly in arrears on the 16th calendar day of January, April, July and October of each year (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing July 16, 2012, up to and including the Interest Payment Date corresponding to the Maturity Date, or, if the notes have been redeemed, the applicable Redemption Date. See “Selected Purchase Considerations — Quarterly Interest Payments” in this pricing supplement for more information.
|
Accrual Provision:
|
For each Interest Period, the Accrual Provision shall be deemed to have been satisfied on each calendar day during such Interest Period on which both (a) the Six-Month USD LIBOR, as determined on the Accrual Determination Date relating to such calendar day, is less than or equal to the LIBOR Strike and (b) the Index Level, as determined on the Accrual Determination Date relating to such calendar day, is greater than or equal to the Index Strike. If the Six-Month USD LIBOR determined on any Accrual Determination Date relating to a calendar day is greater than the LIBOR Strike and/or the Index Level as determined on the Accrual Determination Date relating to such calendar day is less than the Index Strike, then the Accrual Provision shall be deemed not to have been satisfied for such calendar day.
|
LIBOR Strike:
|
6.00%
|
Index Strike:
|
1125
|
Six-Month USD LIBOR:
|
For each Accrual Determination Date, the Six-Month USD LIBOR refers to the London Interbank Offered Rate for deposits in U.S. dollars with a Designated Maturity of six months that appears on Reuters page “LIBOR01” under the heading “6Mo” (or any successor page) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Accrual Determination Date, as determined by the calculation agent. If on such Accrual Determination Date, the Six-Month USD LIBOR cannot be determined by reference to Reuters page “LIBOR01” (or any successor page), then the calculation agent will determine the Six-Month USD LIBOR in accordance with the procedures set forth in the accompanying product supplement no. 1-I under “Description of Notes — Interest — The Underlying Rates— LIBOR Rate.”
|
Index Level:
|
On any Trading Day, the official closing level of the S&P 500
®
Index (the “Index”) published following the regular official weekday close of trading for the S&P 500
®
Index on Bloomberg Professional
®
Service page “SPX Index HP” on such Trading Day. If a market disruption event exists with respect to the S&P 500
®
Index on any Accrual Determination Date, the Index Level on the immediately preceding Accrual Determination Date for which no market disruption event occurs or is continuing will be the Index Level for such disrupted Accrual Determination Date (and will also be the Index Level for the originally scheduled Accrual Determination Date). In certain circumstances, the Index Level will be based on the alternative calculation of the S&P 500
®
Index as described under “General Terms of Notes — Discontinuation of an Equity Index; Alteration of Method of Calculation” in the accompanying product supplement no. 1-I.
|
Accrual Determination Date:
|
For each calendar day during an Interest Period, the second Trading Day prior to such calendar day. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for all calendar days in the Exclusion Period, the Accrual Determination Date will be the first Trading Day that precedes such Exclusion Period.
|
Exclusion Period:
|
The period commencing on the seventh Business Day prior to but excluding each Interest Payment Date.

®
Index or the relevant successor index, if applicable, are traded, other than a day on which trading on such relevant exchange or exchange on which such futures or options contracts are traded is scheduled to close prior to its regular weekday closing time, and (b) commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business (including dealings in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in London.

Selected Purchase Considerations
·
|
|
PRESERVATION OF CAPITAL
AT MATURITY OR UPON REDEMPTION
— We will pay you at least 100% of the principal amount of your notes if you hold the
notes to maturity or upon redemption, regardless of whether the Accrual Provision is satisfied for any calendar day of any Interest
Period. Because the notes are our senior unsecured obligations, payment of any amount at maturity or upon redemption is subject
to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.
|
·
|
|
QUARTERLY INTEREST PAYMENTS
— The notes offer quarterly interest payments at the applicable Interest Rate. Interest will accrue at a rate per annum
equal to the product of (1) the Interest Factor and (2) the Variable Days
divided by
the Actual Days. Interest, if any,
will be payable quarterly in arrears on the 16th calendar day of January, April, July and October of each year (each such date,
an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing July 16, 2012, to and including the Interest Payment Date corresponding to
the Maturity Date, to the holders of record at the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the applicable
Interest Payment Date.
If an Interest Payment Date is not a business day, payment will be made on the
next business day immediately following such day,
provided
that any interest payment on such Interest Payment Date, as
postponed, will accrue to but excluding such Interest Payment Date, as postponed.
|
·
|
|
POTENTIAL QUARTERLY REDEMPTION
BY US AT OUR OPTION
— At our option, we may redeem the notes, in whole but not in part, on the 16th calendar day of
January, April, July and October of each year (each such date, a “Redemption Date”), commencing April 16, 2013 for
a cash payment equal to $1,000 for each $1,000 principal amount note redeemed. Any accrued and unpaid interest on notes redeemed
will be paid to the person who is the holder of record of such notes at the close of business on the business day immediately
preceding the applicable Redemption Date.
|
·
|
|
DIVERSIFICATION OF THE
S&P 500
®
INDEX
— The return on the notes is linked to the S&P 500
®
Index. The
S&P 500
®
Index consists of 500 component stocks selected to provide a performance benchmark for the U.S. equity
markets. For additional information about the Index, see the information set forth under “The S&P 500
®
Index”
in the accompanying underlying supplement no. 1-I.

TREATED AS VARIABLE RATE
DEBT INSTRUMENTS
— You should review carefully the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”
in the accompanying product supplement no. 1-I. You and we agree to treat the notes as “variable rate debt instruments”
for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Assuming this characterization is respected, interest paid on the notes will generally be
taxable to you as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with your method of accounting
for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In general, gain or loss realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of the
notes will be capital gain or loss. Prospective purchasers are urged to consult their own tax advisers regarding the U.S.
federal income tax consequences of an investment in the notes. Purchasers who are not initial purchasers of notes at their
issue price on the issue date should consult their tax advisers with respect to the tax consequences of an investment in the notes,
and the potential application of special rules.
|
Subject
to certain assumptions and representations received from us, the discussion in this section entitled “Treated As Variable
Rate Debt Instruments”, when read in combination with the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”
in the accompanying product supplement, constitutes the full opinion of Sidley Austin
llp
regarding the material U.S. federal income tax treatment of owning and disposing of the notes.
Selected Risk Considerations
An investment in the notes involves significant risks.
These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” section of the accompanying product supplement no. 1-I
dated November 14, 2011 and the accompanying underlying supplement no. 1-I dated November 14, 2011.
·
|
|
THE
NOTES ARE NOT ORDINARY DEBT SECURITIES; THE INTEREST RATE ON THE NOTES IS NOT FIXED BUT IS VARIABLE
—
The rate of interest paid by us on the notes for each Interest Period is not fixed, but will vary depending on whether the Accrual
Provision is satisfied, and whether such Accrual Provision is satisfied will depend on the daily fluctuations in the Six-Month
USD LIBOR and the Index Level. Consequently, the return on the notes may be less than those otherwise payable on debt issued by
us with similar maturities. Although the variable interest rate on the notes is determined, in part, by reference to the Six-Month
USD LIBOR and the Index Level, the notes do not actually pay interest at the Six-Month USD LIBOR nor do they track the Index Level.
You should consider, among other things, the overall annual percentage rate of interest to maturity as compared to other equivalent
investment alternatives.
|
·
|
|
The
interest rate on the notes is limited by the interest factor
—The Interest Rate for each Interest Period will
be limited by the Interest Factor. Interest will accrue at a rate per annum equal to the product of (1) the Interest Factor of
7.00% per annum and (2) the Variable Days
divided by
the Actual Days. As a result, the Interest Rate for any Interest Period
will never exceed the Interest Factor.
|
·
|
|
The
interest rate on the notes is based on an Accrual Provision linked to the Six-Month USD LIBOR and the
INDEX LEVEL
,
which may result in an interest rate of zero
— Although the maximum rate is equal to the Interest Factor of 7.00%
per annum, for every calendar day during any Interest Period on which the Accrual Provision is not satisfied, the Interest Rate
for that Interest Period will be reduced. We cannot predict the factors that may cause the Accrual Provision to be satisfied,
or not, on any calendar day. The amount of interest you accrue on the notes in any Interest Period may decrease even if the applicable
Six-Month USD LIBOR decreases or the Index Level increases. If the Accrual Provision is not satisfied for an entire Interest Period,
the Interest Rate for such period would be zero. In that event, you will not be compensated for any loss in value due to inflation
and other factors relating to the value of money over time during such period.

CREDIT RISK OF JPMORGAN
CHASE & CO. —
The notes are subject to the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase & Co. and our credit ratings and credit
spreads may adversely affect the market value of the notes. Investors are dependent on JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s ability
to pay all amounts due on the notes at maturity, on any Interest Payment Date or upon redemption by us, and therefore investors
are subject to our credit risk and to changes in the market’s view of our creditworthiness. Any decline in our credit ratings
or increase in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking our credit risk is likely to adversely affect the value of
the notes.
|
·
|
|
POTENTIAL CONFLICTS
—
We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the notes, including acting as calculation agent
and hedging our obligations under the notes. In performing these duties, our economic interests and the economic interests of
the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the notes. In addition,
our business activities, including hedging and trading activities for our own accounts or on behalf of customers, could cause
our economic interests to be adverse to yours and could adversely affect any payments on the notes and the value of the notes.
It is possible that hedging or trading activities of ours or our affiliates could result in substantial returns for us or our
affiliates while the value of the notes declines. Please refer to “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Notes Generally”
in the accompanying product supplement for additional information about these risks.
|
·
|
|
THE REDEMPTION FEATURE
MAY FORCE A POTENTIAL EARLY EXIT
— If we redeem the notes, the amount of interest payable on the notes will be less
than the full amount of interest that would have been payable if the notes were held to maturity, and, for each $1,000 principal
amount note, you will receive $1,000 plus accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date.
|
·
|
|
REINVESTMENT RISK
—
If we redeem the notes, the term of the notes may be reduced to as short as one year and you will not receive interest payments
after the applicable Redemption Date. There is no guarantee that you would be able to reinvest the proceeds from an investment
in the notes at a comparable return and/or with a comparable interest rate for a similar level of risk in the event the notes
are redeemed prior to the Maturity Date.
|
·
|
|
CERTAIN BUILT-IN COSTS
ARE LIKELY TO AFFECT ADVERSELY THE VALUE OF THE NOTES PRIOR TO MATURITY
— While the payment at maturity described in
this pricing supplement is based on the full principal amount of your notes, the original issue price of the notes includes the
agent’s commission and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the notes. As a result, and as a general matter,
the price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to purchase notes from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, will
likely be lower than the original issue price, and any sale prior to the Maturity Date could result in a substantial loss to you.
This secondary market price will also be affected by a number of factors aside from the agent’s commission and hedging costs,
including those set forth under “Many Economic and Market Factors Will Impact the Value of the Notes” below.
|
The
notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your notes to
maturity.
·
|
|
The
Six-Month USD LIBOR AND the INDEX may be volatile
— The Six-Month USD LIBOR is subject to volatility due to a
variety of factors affecting interest rates generally and the rates of U.S. Treasury securities specifically, including:
|
·
|
|
sentiment regarding underlying
strength in the U.S. and global economies;
|
·
|
|
expectation regarding the
level of price inflation;
|
·
|
|
sentiment regarding credit
quality in U.S. and global credit markets;
|
·
|
|
central bank policy regarding
interest rates; and
|
·
|
|
performance of capital markets.
|
Recently,
the S&P 500
®
Index has experienced significant volatility. Increases in the Six-Month USD LIBOR or decreases
in the Index Level could result in the Accrual Provision not being satisfied and thus in the reduction of interest payable on
the notes.
·
|
|
WHETHER
THE Accrual PROVISION IS SATISFIED WILL DEPEND ON A NUMBER OF FACTORS, WHICH MAY RESULT IN AN INTEREST RATE OF ZERO
—
The amount of interest, if any, payable on the notes will depend on a number of factors that can affect the levels of the Six-Month
USD LIBOR and the Index Level including, but not limited to:
|
·
|
|
changes in, or perceptions
about, future Six-Month USD LIBOR and Index Levels;
|
·
|
|
general economic conditions;
|
·
|
|
prevailing interest rates;
|
·
|
|
the dividend rates on the
equity securities underlying the S&P 500
®
Index; and
|
·
|
|
policy of the Federal Reserve
Board regarding interest rates.
|
These
and other factors may have a negative impact on the payment of interest on the notes. In addition, these and other factors may
have a negative impact on the value of your notes in the secondary market.
·
|
|
the
method of determining the interest rate for any Interest Period may not directly correlate with actual levels of the applicable
Six-Month USD LIBOR OR THE INDEX LEVEL
— The determination of the Interest Rate payable for any Interest Period
will be based, in part, on the Six-Month USD LIBOR and the Index Level, but it will not directly correlate with actual levels
of the underlying Six-Month USD LIBOR or the Index Level. We will use the Six-Month USD LIBOR and Index Level on each Accrual
Determination Date to determine whether the Accrual Provision is satisfied for any calendar day in the applicable Interest Period.
|
·
|
|
LACK OF LIQUIDITY
—
The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. JPMS intends to offer to purchase the notes in the secondary market but
is not required to do so. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell
the notes easily. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the notes, the price at which you may be
able to trade your notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which JPMS is willing to buy the notes.
|
·
|
|
NO DIVIDEND PAYMENTS OR
VOTING RIGHTS
— As a holder of the notes, you will not have voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends or other
distributions or other rights that holders of the securities included in the S&P 500
®
Index would have.
|
·
|
|
HEDGING AND TRADING IN
THE UNDERLYINGS
— While the notes are outstanding, we or any of our affiliates may carry out hedging activities related
to the notes, including trading instruments related to the Six-Month USD LIBOR, the Index and the equity securities included in
the Index. We or our affiliates
|
JPMorgan Structured Investments
|
PS-4
|
Callable Range Accrual Notes linked to the Six-Month
USD LIBOR and the S&P 500
®
Index
|
may also trade in the equity securities included in the Index from time to time. Any of these hedging or trading activities as
of the Pricing Date and during the term of the notes could affect adversely the likelihood of a redemption or our payment to you
at maturity.
·
|
|
Variable
price reoffering risks
— JPMS sold the notes at market prices prevailing, at prices related to then-prevailing
prices or at negotiated prices,
provided
that such prices were not less than $975.00 per $1,000 principal amount note or
more than $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount note. Accordingly, there is a risk that the price you pay for the notes will be higher
than the prices paid by other investors based on the date and time you make your purchase, from whom you purchase the notes (
e.g.
,
directly from JPMS or through a broker or dealer), any related transaction cost (
e.g.
, any brokerage commission), whether
you hold your notes in a brokerage account, a fiduciary or fee-based account or another type of account and other market factors
beyond our control.
|
·
|
|
MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET
FACTORS WILL IMPACT THE VALUE OF THE NOTES
— In addition to the levels of the Six-Month USD LIBOR and the Index Level
on any day of an Interest Period, the value of the notes will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may
either offset or magnify each other, including:
|
·
|
|
the expected volatility of
the Six-Month USD LIBOR and the S&P 500
®
Index;
|
·
|
|
the time to maturity of the
notes;
|
·
|
|
the redemption feature and
whether we are expected to redeem the notes, which are likely to limit the value of the notes;
|
·
|
|
the dividend rates on the
equity securities underlying the Index;
|
·
|
|
the expected positive or negative
correlation between the Six-Month USD LIBOR and the S&P 500
®
Index, or the expected absence of any such correlation;
|
·
|
|
interest and yield rates in
the market generally, as well as the volatility of those rates;
|
·
|
|
the likelihood, or expectation,
that the notes will be redeemed by us, based on prevailing market interest rates or otherwise;
|
·
|
|
a variety of economic, financial,
political, regulatory and judicial events; and
|
·
|
|
our creditworthiness, including
actual or anticipated downgrades in our credit ratings.

Hypothetical Examples of Calculation of
the Interest Rate on the Notes for an Interest Period
The following examples illustrate how to calculate the
Interest Rate on the notes for three hypothetical Interest Periods. For purposes of the following examples, we have assumed that
there are 90 days in the applicable Interest Period and that the Six-Month USD LIBOR is less than or equal to the LIBOR Strike
of 6.00% per annum. The hypothetical Six-Month USD LIBOR, Index Levels and Interest Rates in the following examples are for illustrative
purposes only and may not correspond to the actual Six-Month USD LIBOR, Index Levels or Interest Rates for any Interest Period
applicable to a purchaser of the notes. The numbers appearing in the following examples have been rounded for ease of analysis.
Example 1: The Index Level is greater than or equal
to the Index Strike on 70 calendar days during the Interest Period.
Because the Accrual Provision is satisfied for 70 calendar
days and the Interest Factor is 7.00% per annum, the Interest Rate for the Interest Period is 5.44% per annum, calculated as follows:
7.00% × ( 70 / 90 ) = 5.44%
per annum
Example 2: The Index Level is greater than or equal
to the Index Strike on 50 calendar days during the Interest Period.
Because the Accrual Provision is satisfied for 50 calendar
days and the Interest Factor is 7.00% per annum, the Interest Rate for the Interest Period is 3.89% per annum, calculated as follows:
7.00% × ( 50 / 90 ) = 3.89%
per annum
Example 3: The Index Level is less than the Index
Strike on each calendar day during the Interest Period.
Regardless of the Interest Factor, because the Accrual Provision is
not satisfied on any calendar day, the Interest Rate for the Interest Period is 0.00% per annum.
