Investments
Fixed to Floating Rate Notes Linked to the Consumer Price
Index due April 8, 2022
General
Senior unsecured obligations of JPMorgan Chase & Co. maturing April 8, 2022.
With respect to the Initial Interest Periods (which we expect to be from April 8, 2011 through but excluding April
8, 2013), Interest on the notes will be payable monthly in arrears at a rate equal to 4.00% per annum. With
respect to each Interest Period (other than the Initial Interest Periods), Interest on the notes will be payable
monthly in arrears at a rate per annum equal to the lagging year-over-year change in the Consumer Price
Index ("CPI"), as described below in "CPI Rate", plus 2.00% per annum, subject to the Maximum Interest Rate
and the Minimum Interest Rate. In no case will the Interest Rate for any monthly Interest Period be less than
the Minimum Interest Rate of 0.00% or greater than the Maximum Interest Rate of 7.75%.
The notes are designed for investors who seek (a) monthly interest payments that are, for the Initial Interest
Periods, fixed at 4.00% per annum, and then for all subsequent Interest Periods are linked to the year-over-
year change in the CPI as determined on each Determination Date plus 2.00%, subject to the Maximum
Interest Rate of 7.75% and the Minimum Interest Rate of 0.00%, and (b) the return of their initial investment at
maturity. Any payment on the notes is subject to the credit risk of JP Morgan Chase & Co.
Interest will be payable based on the actual number of days in the Interest Period and 360 days in the calendar
year.
Minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.
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. 165-A-IV, will supersede the terms set forth in product

excluding the first Interest Payment Date and each successive period beginning on
and including an Interest Payment Date and ending on but excluding April 8, 2013.
CPI Rate:
For any Interest Period (other than the Initial Interest Periods), the CPI Rate will be
calculated as follows:
CPI - CPI
where: CPI is the CPI level for the second calendar month prior to the
t

business days immediately prior to April 8, 2014) is the Determination Date of the CPI
Rate with respect to interest due and payable on May 8, 2014. On the April 2014
Determination Date, interest will be based on changes between the CPI level in
February 2013 and February 2014.
Interest Periods:
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

and including the Maturity Date. If an Interest Payment Date is not a business day,
payment will be made on the immediately following business day, provided that any
interest payable on such Interest Payment Date, as postponed, will accrue to but
excluding such Interest Payment Date, as postponed, and the next Interest Period, if
applicable, will commence on such Interest Payment Date, as postponed.
Payment at Maturity:
On the Maturity Date, we will pay you the principal amount of your notes plus any
accrued and unpaid interest.

Selected Purchase Considerations
PRESERVATION OF CAPITAL AT MATURITY ­ You will receive at least 100% of the principal amount of
your notes if you hold the notes to maturity, regardless of the year-over-year change in the CPI. Because the
notes are our senior unsecured obligations, payment of any amount at maturity is subject to our ability to pay
our obligations as they become due.
MONTHLY INTEREST PAYMENTS ­ With respect to the Initial Interest Periods (expected to be April 8, 2011
through but excluding April 8, 2013), a rate per annum equal to 4.00%. With respect to each Interest Period
thereafter, a rate per annum equal to the lagging year-over-year change in the CPI, as defined in "CPI Rate",
on each applicable Determination Date, plus 2.00%, subject to the Maximum Interest Rate and the Minimum
Interest Rate. In no case will the Interest Rate for any monthly Interest Period be less than the Minimum
Interest Rate of 0.00% or greater than the Maximum Interest Rate of 7.75% per annum. The notes offer
monthly interest payments at the applicable Interest Rate, which may be zero. Interest, if any, will be payable
monthly in arrears on the 8th calendar day of each month (each such date, an "Interest Payment Date"),
commencing May 8, 2011, to and including the Maturity Date. 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. The
monthly interest payments after the Initial Interest Periods are affected by, and contingent upon, the CPI Rate,
subject to the Maximum Interest Rate. The yield on the notes may be less than the overall return you would
receive from a conventional debt security that you could purchase today with the same maturity as the notes. If
an Interest Payment Date is not a business day, payment will be made on the immediately following business
day.
INFLATION PROTECTION ­ After the Initial Interest Periods, the Interest Rate on the notes will be a rate per
annum equal to the CPI Rate, plus 2.00%, subject to the Maximum Interest Rate of 7.75% per annum. In no
case will the Interest Rate for any monthly Interest Period be less than the Minimum Interest Rate of 0.00% per
annum.
TAXED AS CONTINGENT PAYMENT DEBT INSTRUMENTS -- You should review carefully the section
entitled "Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences" in the accompanying disclosure statement. Subject
to the limitations described therein, in the opinion of our special tax counsel, Sidley Austin LLP, the notes will be
treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as "contingent payment debt instruments." You will generally be

Page 6 of 12
required to accrue and recognize original issue discount ("OID") as interest income in each year at the
"comparable yield," as determined by us, even though the actual interest payments made with respect to the
notes during a taxable year may differ from the amount of OID that must be accrued during that taxable year.
In addition, solely for purposes of determining the amount of OID that you will be required to accrue, we are
also required to construct a "projected payment schedule" in respect of the notes representing a series of
payments the amount and timing of which would produce a yield to maturity on the notes equal to the
comparable yield. You will be required to make adjustments to the amount of OID you must recognize each
taxable year to reflect the difference, if any, between the actual amount of interest payments made and the
projected amount of the interest payments (as reflected in the projected payment schedule). Under the
forgoing rules, you will not be required to separately include in income the interest payments you receive with
respect to the notes. To obtain the comparable yield and the projected payment schedule in respect of the
notes, contact a certified financial analyst at the Global Securities Group desk at (800) 576-3529. Generally,
amounts received at maturity or earlier sale or disposition in excess of your tax basis, if any, will be treated as
additional interest income while any loss will be treated as an ordinary loss to the extent of all previous interest
inclusions with respect to the notes, which will be deductible against other income (e.g., employment and
interest income), with the balance treated as capital loss, the deductibility of which may be subject to
limitations. Purchasers who are not initial purchasers of notes at the issue price should consult their tax
advisers with respect to the tax consequences of an investment in the notes, including the treatment of the
difference, if any, between their basis in the notes and the notes' adjusted issue price.

Subject to certain assumptions and representations received from us, the discussion in this section
entitled "Taxed as Contingent Payment Debt Instruments", when read in combination with the section
entitled "Certain 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
THE AMOUNT OF EACH MONTHLY INTEREST PAYMENT AFTER THE INTEREST PAYMENTS ON THE
NOTES DURING THE INITIAL INTEREST PERIODS MAY BE ZERO ­ You will receive an interest payment
for the applicable Initial Interest Period based on a rate per annum equal to 4.00% and for the applicable
Interest Periods thereafter, an interest payment based on a rate per annum equal to the CPI Rate, plus 2.00%,
subject to the Minimum Interest Rate of 0.00% and the Maximum Interest Rate of 7.75% per annum.
Therefore, if the CPI Rate is less than or equal to -2.00% for any Interest Period, the Interest Rate on your
notes for such Interest Period will be equal to zero.
FLOATING RATE NOTES DIFFER FROM FIXED RATE NOTES ­ The rate of interest paid by us on the
notes for each Interest Period after the Initial Interest Periods will be equal to the CPI Rate, plus 2.00%,
subject to the Maximum Interest Rate of 7.75% per annum which may be less than returns otherwise payable
on debt securities issued by us with similar maturities. In no case will the Interest Rate for any monthly Interest
Period be less than the Minimum Interest Rate of 0.00%. You should consider, among other things, the overall
potential annual percentage rate of interest to maturity of the notes as compared to other investment
alternatives.
YOUR MAXIMUM GAIN ON THE NOTES IS LIMITED BY THE MAXIMUM INTEREST RATE -- With respect
to any Determination Date after the Initial Interest Periods, if the CPI Rate plus 2.00% is greater than the
Maximum Interest Rate of 7.75% per annum, for each $1,000 principal amount note, you will receive on the
corresponding Interest Payment Date an Interest payment that will not exceed $77.50 per annum prorated on
a 360 day basis, regardless of the performance of the relevant CPI Rate, which may be significant. As such,
you will not participate in any positive year-over-year change in the CPI beyond 5.75%.
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. Payment
on the notes is dependent on JPMorgan Chase & Co.'s ability to pay the amount due on the notes at maturity
or upon early redemption, as applicable, and therefore your payment on the notes is 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, the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to
your interests as an investor in the notes.
THESE NOTES MAY BE MORE RISKY THAN NOTES WITH A SHORTER TERM -- By purchasing a note
with a longer term, you are more exposed to fluctuations in interest rates than if you purchased a note with a
shorter term. Specifically, you may be negatively affected if certain interest rate scenarios occur. For example,
if interest rates begin to rise, the market value of your notes will decline and the Interest Rate applicable to that
specific Interest Period may be less than a note issued at such time. For example, if the Interest Rate
applicable to your notes at such time was 4.00% per annum, but a debt security issued in the then current
market could yield an interest rate of 6.00% per annum, your note would be less valuable if you tried to sell
that note in the secondary market.
CERTAIN BUILT-IN COSTS ARE LIKELY TO ADVERSELY AFFECT 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 through one or more of our affiliates. 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.
LACK OF LIQUIDITY -- The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. JPMS intends to offer to
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/19617/000089109211002368/e43069_424b2.htm

Page 8 of 12
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.
MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS WILL IMPACT THE VALUE OF THE NOTES -- In addition to
the level of the CPI on any day, 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 in the CPI;
the time to maturity of the notes;
interest and yield rates in the market generally, as well as the volatility of those rates;
fluctuations in the prices of various consumer goods and energy resources;

inflation and expectations concerning inflation;

for All Urban Consumers, reported monthly by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Labor Department (the

Hypothetical Interest Rates Based on Historical CPI Levels
Provided below are historical levels of the CPI as reported by the BLS for the period from January 2002 to December
2010. Also provided below are the hypothetical Interest Rates for hypothetical interest payments in the calendar
months from January 2004 to February 2011 that would have resulted from the historical levels of the CPI presented
below, based on the spread of 2.00%, the Minimum Interest Rate of 0.00% per annum and Maximum Interest Rate of
7.75% per annum. We obtained the historical information included below from Bloomberg Financial Markets and we
make no representation or warranty as to the accuracy of completeness of the information so obtained from
Bloomberg Financial Markets.
The historical levels of the CPI should not be taken as an indication of future levels of the CPI, and no assurance can
be given as to the level of the CPI for any reference month. The hypothetical Interest Rates that follow are intended
to illustrate the effect of general trends in the CPI on the amount of interest payable to you on the notes and assume
that the change in the CPI will be measured on a year-over-year basis. However, the CPI may not increase or
decrease over the term of the notes in accordance with any of the trends depicted by the historical information in the
table below, and the size and frequency of any fluctuations in the CPI level over the term of the notes, which we refer
to as the volatility of the CPI, may be significantly different than the historical volatility of the CPI indicated in the table.
Additionally, for ease of presentation, the hypothetical Interest Rates set forth below have only been calculated to the
third decimal point and rounded to the nearest second decimal point, which is different from the rounding convention
applicable to the notes. As a result, the hypothetical Interest Rates depicted in the table below should not be taken as
an indication of the actual Interest Rates that will be paid with regard to the Interest Periods over the term of the
notes.
Interest Calculation
Example 1: Since the Interest Period commencing April 8, 2011 has an Interest Rate of 4.00% (due to such Interest
Period falling in the Initial Interest Periods), the interest payment per $1,000 principal amount note for the anticipated
Interest Period from and including April 8, 2011 to but excluding May 8, 2011 will be $3.33. This monthly interest
payment is calculated as follows:
$1,000 × 4.00% × (30/360) = $3.33
The example above is simplified and the calculation is rounded for ease of analysis.
Example 2: If February 6, 2011 were a Determination Date for an Interest Period other than an Initial Interest Period,
the hypothetical Interest Rate would be 3.14% per annum, resulting in a hypothetical $2.62 interest payment per
$1,000 principal amount note for the hypothetical Interest Period from and including February 8, 2011 to but
excluding March 8, 2011. This monthly interest payment is calculated as follows:
1,000 × 3.14% × (30/360) = $2.62
The Interest Rate of 3.14% per annum is calculated by adding 2.00% to the relevant CPI Rate. The CPI Rate is
calculated based on the percent change in the CPI for the one year period from November 2009 (216.330) to
November 2010 (218.803) as follows:
