a Deferral Election in accordance with Article III. With respect to amounts not subject to an
annual enrollment period, he or she shall become a Participant when the Deferral Election is
irrevocable.
ARTICLE IIIDEFERRAL AND DISTRIBUTION ELECTIONS
3.1 Timing of Deferral
(a) General Rule. An Eligible Employee for any Plan Year may make a Deferral
Election by completing and submitting a Deferral Election Form during the annual enrollment period
established by the Administrator with respect to Bonuses and Commissions; provided that in
the case of the first Plan Year in which an Employee becomes an Eligible Employee in accordance
with Article II, such Deferral Election may be made with respect to services to be performed
subsequent to the Deferral Election within thirty (30) days after the Employee becomes an Eligible
Employee; provided further that with respect to Other Compensation, the Deferral Election
Form shall be submitted and returned in accordance with the period established by the Administrator
and as provided in Section 3.1 (d) below.
(b) Commission Deferrals. With respect to Commissions to be earned in any Plan
Year, a Participant may make a Deferral Election during the enrollment period which shall occur on
or before December 31st of the year prior to the Plan Year to which the Deferral
Election relates.
(c) Bonus Deferrals. A Participant may elect to defer a portion of any Bonus
amounts to be earned in a performance year by completing and submitting a Deferral Election Form
during an annual enrollment period which shall occur no later than December 31st prior
to the calendar year to which the Deferral Election relates; provided that if the
Administrator determines that a Bonus is a Performance Based Bonus, a Participant may elect to
defer a portion of any Performance-Based Bonus by making a Deferral Election during the enrollment
period which shall occur at least six months prior to the end of the performance period to which
such Performance-Based Bonus relates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to a Bonus
earned in the 2004 performance year, a Participant may be permitted to make a later enrollment
election in good faith reliance on Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005-1.
(d) Other Compensation Deferrals. The Plan Administrator in his discretion may
permit an Eligible Employee who has been awarded Other Compensation to make an election to defer
such Other Compensation which election shall occur no later than the 30th day after the Eligible
Employee obtains the legally binding right to the Other Compensation; provided that such
election shall be made at least 12 months in advance of the earliest date at which a substantial
risk of forfeiture within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code could lapse; provided
further that prior to having a legally binding right to Other Compensation, a Participant may
elect to defer all or a portion of such amount. With respect to Other Compensation awarded in the
form of restricted stock units for performance year 2004, Eligible Employees shall be permitted to
make an election on or before March 15, 2005 to defer either the dividend equivalents associated
with such units or the units themselves in good faith reliance on Internal Revenue Service Notice
2005-1.
3.2 Amount of Deferrals.
(a) Commissions. A Participant may elect to defer a percentage of his/her Commissions
with respect to the Plan Year to which the Deferral Election relates in whole percentages only.
The Administrator may specify the maximum and minimum percentage or amount that the Participant may
defer with respect to a Plan Year, which may be different as among Participants.
(b) Bonus. A Participant may elect to defer a (i) percentage (in whole percentages
only), (ii) a dollar amount or (iii) such combination of a dollar amount and percentage (as the
Administrator may specify) of the Participants Bonus with respect to the calendar year to which
the Deferral Election relates. The Administrator may specify a minimum amount or maximum amount
that a Participant may defer for any Plan Year; provided that if the percentage (or
combination dollar amount and percentage elected) would result in a deferral of an amount less than
the minimum amount or more than the maximum annual amount, the Deferral Election shall not be
effective for the Plan Year to the extent that it is less than minimum amount or to the extent of
the excess over the maximum annual amount; provided, further, that with respect to a newly
eligible employee, any portion of a Bonus attributable to services rendered after date of
eligibility shall be the maximum amount deferral hereunder. See Appendices A and C for the
maximum and minimums applicable to 2005 and 2006.
(c) Other Compensation. A Participant may elect to defer a percentage or dollar
amount of his/her Other Compensation to which the Deferral Election relates. The Administrator may
specify the minimum and maximum dollar amount that a Participant may defer.
(d) Adjustment for Taxes. In the event that a Participants Deferral Election
results in insufficient non-deferred compensation from which the Company may withhold taxes (or
such amount that is required to be deducted), the Participants Deferral Election shall be reduced
by the amount necessary to allow the Company to satisfy such withholding requirements, unless
acceptable other arrangements are made for the payment of such taxes or other amounts.
(e) Maximum Deferral. The Administrator may specify an aggregate maximum amount that
can be deferred by any Participant under the Plan. Commencing with calendar year 2006, the maximum
aggregate Deferred Amounts of any Participant shall be $10 million. A
Participants Deferral Election for any calendar year shall be reduced, when it combined with
other previous Deferred Amounts, exceeds $10 million. See Sections 3.2(b) and (c) regarding
reductions in a Deferred Amount when an annual maximum is exceeded.
3.3 Distribution Elections
(a) Form of Payment. At the same time that a Participant makes a Deferral Election,
the Participant may make a Distribution Election on a Distribution Election Form as to the form of
payment. Such Participant may elect to receive the Deferred Amount (including investment
experience) subject to the Deferral Election either in a lump sum or in up to 15 annual
installments.
(b) Date of Distribution. At same time that a Participant makes a Deferral
Election, the Participant may make a Distribution Election on a Distribution Election Form as to
when the Deferred Amount (including investment experience) subject to the Deferral Election is to
be distributed. Such Participant may elect to commence receiving such amount either following a
Separation from Service and/or in January of a specific year. If a specific year is elected, such
year shall not be earlier than the second anniversary following date that the Deferred Amount is
credited to the Participants Account nor with respect to the DSIB Investment Option later than
the than the Participants sixty-five birthday. See Appendix B.
(c) Changes in Form and Date of Distribution. The Administrator, in his or her
discretion, may permit a particular Participant to change the form and time of distribution in
accordance with Section 409A (a)(4) of the Code and Proposed Regulations, as well as final
Regulations when issued.
(d) Special Limitations On Distributions of Certain Investment Options.
Notwithstanding Sections 3.3 (a) and (b) or any Distribution Election to the contrary, the
following applies:
(i) Deferred Amounts treated as invested in the DSIB Investment Option shall be paid in 15
installments and shall only be distributed following a Separation from Service. If a Participant
has selected a specific year to commence distribution of the DSIB Investment Option and is
employed on such date by the Company or one of its Affiliates, then such amounts shall be payable
following a Separation from Service on an Initial Distribution Date
and in annual installments on each subsequent Distribution Date. If Participant has incurred a
Separation from Service and has selected a date of distribution beyond his/her sixty fifth
birthday, the election shall be disregarded; and the first installment shall commence on the later
of the Initial Distribution Date or the Distribution Date, following the Participants sixty
fifth birthday and in annual installments thereafter on each
subsequent Distribution Date. See Appendices B and D.
(ii)
Because the calculation of any investment experience allocated to a
Participants Account with respect to the
Private Equity Investment Option following a Separation from Service
is not administratively practicable within the meaning Treasury
Proposed Regulation 1.409-A3, it shall be distributed to the
Participant (except in the case of a Specified Employee) within 60 days following the date of such
allocation. In the case of a Specified Employee, such Participant shall not receive any
distribution until six months have elapsed from the date of the Separation from Service.
(e) Failure to Make A Distribution Election. Unless Section 3.3 (c) applies, if a
Participant fails to make a Distribution Election with respect to any Deferred Amount for a
particular Plan Year, the Participant shall receive the Participants Account balance attributable
to that Deferred Amount in a lump sum on the Initial Distribution Date applicable to that
Participant; except as provided above with respect to Deferred Amounts treated as invested in DSIB
and Private Equity Investment Options.
3.4 Effective Date and Irrevocability. Unless the Administrator otherwise determines
or Section 3.2 applies with respect to minimum/maximum deferrals, a Deferral Election and
Distribution Election shall become effective upon the last business day of the enrollment period
with respect to the Plan Year to which they relate, or in the case of Other Compensation as of the
date that such Deferral and Distribution Election are received. With respect to Bonus and
Commissions, a Deferral Election shall be effective for the Plan Year to which it relates and shall
expire at the end of such Plan Year. A Deferral Election and Distribution Election shall be
irrevocable when they becomes effective and may not be modified, except in the case of the 2005
Deferred Amount as provided in Article VI, in the event of an Unforeseeable Emergency as provided
in Article VII or a subsequent election as provided in Section 3.3(c).
3.5 Mandatory Deferrals. Nothing in this Plan should be construed from prohibiting
the Company from imposing a mandatory deferral; provided that such deferral and distribution
thereof complies with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.
ARTICLE IVPARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS
The Company shall establish an Account with respect to each Participant. The Company shall credit
a Participants Deferred Amounts to his Account in accordance with the Participants Deferral
Election Form. The Company shall credit the Deferred Amounts to the Participants Account as of
the date on which the amounts would have been paid by the Company or other such other date as may
be specified with respect Other Compensation, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator.
ARTICLE VINVESTMENT ACCOUNTS
5.1 Allocation/Transfer Election. A Participant shall elect Investment Options to be
used to determine the value of a Participants Account. A Participant shall use the
Allocation/Transfer Election to specify his/her allocations/transfers among the Investment Options.
In the event that the Participant fails to make an Allocation/Transfer Election with respect to a
Deferred Amount or with respect to a credit from the Private Equity Investment while a Participant
is employed by the Company or one of its Affiliates, such Deferred Amount shall be automatically
treated as allocated or transferred to the Short-Term Investment Option, unless the Administrator
otherwise directs.
5. 2 Continuation of Investment Election. With respect to Commissions, an
Allocation/Transfer Election submitted by a Participant during the annual enrollment shall be a
continuing Allocation Election with respect to the allocation of future Deferred Amounts during
the Plan Year until a new Allocation/Transfer Election is submitted by the Participant. In the
event that the Participant fails to make an Allocation/Transfer Election with respect to a
Deferred Amount, it shall be automatically treated as allocated or transferred to the Short-Term
Investment Option, unless the Administrator otherwise directs.
5.3 Reallocation/Transfer Among Investment Options. A Participant may reallocate or
transfer his Account balances among the Investment Options by submitting a new Allocation/Transfer
Election in such form and at such time or times as may be specified by the Administrator. The
Administrator may, in his sole and absolute discretion, restrict transfer, allocation or
reallocation by Participants into or out of specified Investment Options or specify minimum or
maximum amounts that may be allocated or transferred by Participants. See Appendices A and C for
the restrictions applicable to the 2005 and 2006.
5.4 Changes in Investment Options. The Administrator, in his sole and absolute
discretion, shall be permitted to add or remove Investment Options provided that any such additions
or removals of Investment Options shall not be effective with respect to the investment experience
credited prior to the effective date of the change. In the event that the Administrator removes
or replaces an Investment Option, the Administrator may direct the transfer of balances previously
allocated to that Investment Option to other Investment Options.
5.5 DSIB Investment Option. Deferred Amounts treated as invested in the DSIB
Investment Option shall earn the rate of return specified by the Administrator for that year and
future years up to the January 1, immediately prior to the distribution of the first installment of
the DSIB. The DSIB rate of return shall not be applicable if employment of a Participant
terminates with less than five years of service, or before age 65 with respect to deferrals made
within 12 month of termination of employment. In such circumstances, that portion of the Account
shall receive, in lieu of the DSIB rate, the rate provided by the Stable Value Investment Option
for calendar year 2005 and thereafter the rate provided by the Short-Term Investment Option.
Effective as of February 1, 2005, DSIB was no longer an Investment Option under the Plan. See
Appendix B for a full description of the DSIB Investment Option
5.6 JPMorgan Chase Common Stock Investment Option . As of the date that any Deferred
Amount is treated as invested in the JPMorgan Chase Common Stock Investment Option, the number of
hypothetical shares to be allocated to a Participants Account shall be determined by using the New
York Stock Exchange Closing Price for that day if such credit, transfer, or allocation is received
prior to closing of the New York Stock Exchange for that day. If the Exchange is closed, the next
business days closing price shall be used. Dividend equivalents on such hypothetical shares
allocated to an Account shall be converted into additional shares on a similar basis.
5.7 Account Valuation. As of a Valuation Date, a Participants Account shall be
valued as the sum of the value of all Deemed Investments of the Account minus any withdrawals or
distributions from such Account. Investment experience with respect to each Investment Option will
be credited and debited to, or otherwise reflected in, the balance of such Account.
5.8 No Ownership. A Participants election of Investment Options as measuring devices
for determining the value of a Participants Account does not represent actual ownership of, or any
ownership rights in or to, the investments to which the Investment Options refer, nor is the
Company or Bank, as applicable, in any way bound or directed to make actual investments
corresponding to Deemed Investments. A Participants Allocation/Transfer Election shall be used
solely for purposes of determining the value of such Participants Account.
5.9 Life Insurance. In the event that, in its discretion, the Company or Bank, as
applicable, purchases an insurance policy or policies insuring the life of a Participant to allow
the Company or Bank to recover the cost of providing the benefits hereunder, neither the
Participant, Participants Beneficiary, nor any other person shall have or acquire any rights
whatsoever in such policy or policies or in the proceeds therefrom, and the Participant shall
cooperate with the Company and Bank in the acquisition of such life insurance policy.

sole and absolute discretion, determine that a Participant has incurred an Unforeseeable Emergency.
If such a determination is made, the Administrator may cancel a Deferral Election for the balance
of the Plan Year and, taking into account the dollar value of such cancellation to the Participant,
shall authorize a distribution limited to the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the
emergency need (which may include amounts necessary to pay any Federal, state, or local income
taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the distribution). For these purposes, a
distribution shall not be allowed to the extent that the hardship may be relieved through
reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise, or by liquidation of the
Participants assets (to the extent such liquidation would not itself cause a severe financial
hardship).
7.7 Acceleration of Distributions.
(a) Minimum Account/Voluntary Termination. Notwithstanding any Distribution Election
or any Plan term to the contrary, a Participant shall receive his/her Account on the Initial
Distribution Date if (i) the value of the Account is less than $15,000 (excluding Deemed
Investments in Private Equity and DSIB Investment Options) or (ii) for Deferred Amounts credited
under this Plan after calendar year 2005, the Participants Separation from Service was for
reasons other than a Job Elimination, Retirement or Disability.
(b) FICA Amount. The Plan, at the discretion of Administrator, may permit the
acceleration of an amount equal to the (i) FICA Amount with respect to any Participant (ii) the
income tax at source on wages imposed under Section 3401 of the Code or the corresponding
withholding provisions of applicable state, local, or foreign tax laws as a result of the payment
of the FICA Amount, and (iii) the additional income tax at source on wages attributable to the
pyramiding Section 3401 wages and taxes. However, the total payment under this Section shall not
exceed the aggregate of the FICA Amount, and the income tax withholding related to such FICA
Amount.
(c) Payments Upon Income Inclusion Under Section 409A. The Plan, at the discretion
of Administrator, may permit the acceleration of the time or schedule of a payment to a Participant
under the Plan at any time the Plan or any arrangement that is aggregated with the Plan under
Treasury Regulations fails to meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code with respect to
such Participant. Such payment shall not exceed the amount required to be included in income as a
result of the failure to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury
Regulations.
(d) Prohibition On Acceleration of Distributions. Other than provided for in
Articles III and VII, the Plan shall not permit the acceleration of the time or schedule of any
payment under the Plan except as provided by the Code or Treasury Regulations.
7.8 Delaying Payment.
(a)
162(m) Delay. If, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrator, the Companys
deduction with respect to a distribution of Deferred Amounts or any other amount would be limited
or eliminated by application of Section 162(m) of the Code, such distribution shall be delayed to
the Initial Distribution Date (or such earlier distribution date
required by Treasury Regulations), unless with respect to an amount subject to a mandatory deferral,
the Participant has made a Distribution Election that extends the distribution date beyond the
Initial Distribution Date.
(b) Security laws violation. If, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrator
distribution of a Deferred Amount would violate Federal securities laws or other applicable laws,
then such distribution shall be delayed to the date at which the Administrator reasonably
anticipates that the payment of the amount will not cause such violation. For this purpose, the
distribution of a Deferred Amount that would cause an inclusion in
gross income or the application of any penalty provision or other provision of the Code shall not be deemed a
violation of applicable laws.
ARTICLE VIIILIABILITY AND FUNDING
8.1 Unsecured Creditor. The right of any Participant or Beneficiary to receive future
payments under the provisions of the Plan shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of
(i) the Bank if the Participating Company employing the Participant at the time that his/her
compensation is deferred was a bank or a bank subsidiary, or (ii) the Company, if the Participating
Company employing the Participant at the time his/her compensation is deferred was not a bank or a
bank subsidiary.
8.2
No Funding. All benefits in respect of a Participant under this Plan shall be paid
directly from either the general funds of the Company or Bank, as applicable. No special or
separate fund shall be established and no other segregation of assets shall be made to assure
payment of any benefits hereunder. No Participant or Beneficiary shall have any right, title or
interest whatsoever in or to any investments which the Company or Bank, as applicable, may make to
aid the Company or Bank, as applicable, in meeting their obligation hereunder. Nothing contained
in this Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to
create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between the Company or Bank and any
Participant or Beneficiary.
ARTICLE IXAMENDMENT AND TERMINATION
9.1 Amendment and Plan Termination. The Administrator, Committee or the Board may at
any time modify, amend or terminate the Plan. Any such modification, amendment or termination
shall not cancel, reduce or otherwise adversely affect the amount of benefits of any Participant
accrued. Any termination shall conform to Section 409A of the Code.
9.2 Compliance with Law. It is intended that this Plan comply with all provisions of
the Code and regulations and rulings in effect from time to time regarding the permissible deferral
of compensation and taxes thereon, and it is understood that this Plan does so comply. If any
provision of this Plan is inconsistent with Section 409A of the Code, then such provision shall
be null and void from date included in the Plan, unless the application of such change is
prospective in nature.

APPENDIX A2005 PROGRAM RULES
Deferral Limits for 2005
A Participant is permitted a minimum deferral of $5000 and a maximum deferral of 90% of the Bonus or $1 million. If an election were to result in a deferral of more than $1 million, the deferral will be reduced accordingly and apportioned pro rata in accordance with the percentage elections among the Investment Options.
A Participant is permitted a minimum deferral of $5000 and a maximum deferral of 90% of the Bonus or $1 million. If an election were to result in a deferral of more than $1 million, the deferral will be reduced accordingly and apportioned pro rata in accordance with the percentage elections among the Investment Options.
A Participant is permitted a maximum deferral into each of the DSIB and Stable Value
Investment Options of $500,000. If an investment election results in a deferral to either of these
Investment Options of more than $500,000, any amounts in excess of such limits will be directed to
the Short-Term Fixed Income Investment Option.
Limitations on transfers and reallocations.
The following special provisions limit the reallocation or transfer of account balances in JPMorgan Chase Common Stock, Stable Value, Deferred Supplemental Income Benefit (DSIB), Private Equity, Multi-Strategy II and the International Equity Investment Options:
The following special provisions limit the reallocation or transfer of account balances in JPMorgan Chase Common Stock, Stable Value, Deferred Supplemental Income Benefit (DSIB), Private Equity, Multi-Strategy II and the International Equity Investment Options:
A Participant can reallocate or transfer any Account balance (other than that attributable
to Private Equity) from Investment Options into JPMorgan Chase Common Stock Investment
Option, but may not reallocate or transfer any portion of the Account out of JPMorgan Chase
Common Stock Investment Option.
A Participant may not reallocate or transfer any of Account balances from other hypothetical Investment Options into the Stable Value, DSIB, and Private Equity
Investment Options.
No portion of the Participants Account balances in the DSIB and Private Equity Investment
Options may be reallocated or transferred into another Investment Option.
A Participant may not reallocate or transfer any Account balances from other hypothetical
Investment Options into Multi-Strategy II Investment Option.
If a Participant reallocates and/or transfers balances into the International Large Cap
Index, International Large Cap Value, International Large Cap Core, or International Small
Cap Investment Options, then no subsequent amount (including any prior balance) can be
reallocated or transferred out of that particular Investment Option for 30 calendar days
from the date of the initial reallocation/transfer.
APPENDIX B

You may elect to have your Deferred Compensation Program account
balance treated as if invested in the Deferred Supplemental Income
Benefit (DSIB) investment choice. With DSIB, your investments earn a
rate of return based on your age when your deferred compensation is
credited to DSIB and your age when you receive payment. (For more
information, see Table 1 on page 22, which shows the rates in effect
for amounts deferred, transferred, or reallocated into pending DSIB
during 2004 and for deferrals of performance year 2004 cash bonuses, as
applicable. Table 2 shows reduction factors for benefits commenced
before age 65.)
JPMorgan Chase may seek to defray the costs of this
investment choice by purchasing, owning, and being the beneficiary of
life insurance policies on the lives of certain employees. You will not
be required to complete an insurance application to defer through DSIB,
nor will a medical examination be necessary. If you choose to invest
through DSIB, you may be required to complete a consent form that
allows JPMorgan Chase to purchase life insurance on you. You will have
no interest in the proceeds of this insurance.
Once amounts (2004 performance year bonus deferrals and 2004
Pending DSIB) are credited to DSIB in January 2005, such amounts
cannot be transferred out.
Minimum Deferral Amount: The minimum annual deferral amount into DSIB
is $5,000. Any deferrals below the applicable minimum will be credited
to the Short-Term Fixed Income investment choice and receive interest
based on the Short-Term Fixed Income rate for the applicable period.
You may then transfer this amount to most of the other investment
choices offered under the program.
Deferral Limits: The annual limit on new deferrals into DSIB and
pending DSIB (for commission-paid employees) is $500,000. JPMorgan
Chase reserves the right to further restrict the deferred amounts
invested in this investment choice, as it does with all investment
choices, in its sole discretion. Participants will be advised if
JPMorgan Chase exercises its discretion. Such restricted amounts will
be credited to the Short-Term Fixed Income investment choice and
receive interest based on the Short-Term Fixed Income rate for the
applicable period.
Pending DSIB: Voluntary Compensation Deferral Plan
deferrals allocated to DSIB during 2005, will remain in pending
status, unless you subsequently transfer such amounts out of pending
status during 2005. In pending status, the amounts will accrue
interest at the rates offered by the Short-Term Fixed Income
investment choice. In January 2006, these amounts will automatically
be credited to DSIB and, at such time, will earn the rate then in
effect for DSIB (such rates will be announced in fall 2005). Once
these amounts are credited to DSIB in January 2006, such amounts
cannot be transferred out.
Note for Commission-Paid Employees: If you transfer and/or
reallocate balances out of pending DSIB, then no subsequent amount
can be transferred or reallocated back into pending DSIB in a given
year.

Transfer Restrictions: You may not reallocate or transfer any of your
Deferred Compensation Program account balances from other hypothetical
investment choices into DSIB. In addition, no portion of your account
balance in DSIB may be reallocated or transferred into another
investment choice.
DSIB Payments
You may not elect to receive payments from DSIB while employed.
Instead, payments are scheduled to begin in the year following your
retirement or termination of employment, subject to the firms
acceptance and to any applicable legal requirements.
Payments from DSIB are made in 15 equal annual installments. You will
have 60 days from your retirement or termination date (but not later
than December 31 of the year of your retirement/termination) to
request to defer payments to a later year, subject to the firms
acceptance and to any applicable legal requirements. If you do not
make a request, the first of 15 DSIB payments will begin as soon as
administratively possible following your retirement or termination
under the terms and conditions for distributions.
Under the following circumstances, your deferrals invested
through DSIB will be recalculated as if they had been invested in
the Short-Term Fixed Income investment choice:
| If your employment terminates with fewer than five years of service (including service with predecessor organizations); or | |
| If your employment terminates before age 65 and your deferral was invested in DSIB for less than 12 months prior to your termination. |
Examples:
| If you defer a portion of your 2004 performance year bonus into DSIB and your employment terminates before January 1, 2006 (12 months after January 1, 2005), your DSIB deferral will be recalculated at the Short-Term Fixed Income rate, unless you are age 65 or older at the time of termination. | |
| If you defer a portion of your 2005 eligible compensation (for commission-paid employees) into Pending DSIB and your employment terminates before January 1, 2007 (12 months after January 1, 2006), your DSIB deferral will be recalculated at the Short-Term Fixed Income rate, unless you are age 65 or older at the time of termination. |
In such cases, this amount will be distributed to you following
your termination of employment under the same terms and
conditions for distributions from the Short-Term Fixed Income
investment choice. (See the accompanying Voluntary Bonus Deferral
Plan Brochure or the Voluntary Compensation Deferral Plan
Brochure for details on distributions.)

An Important Tax Note
Estate tax law is very complex and
subject to change. You should
consider consulting a qualified tax
advisor before electing a survivor
benefit payment method. The Lump-Sum
Survivor Benefit payment choices are
designed to address a potential cash
flow problem that can arise due to
U.S. estate taxes.
Survivor Benefits
In the event of your death before payments begin, DSIB provides
annual survivor payments to your beneficiary(ies) for 15 years. These
benefits begin as soon as administratively practical.
The annual survivor payment is approximately equivalent to the annual
benefit that you would have received at age 60. DSIB Table 3 on page
24 shows the survivor benefits payable per $1,000 deferred.
In the event of your death after payments begin, the remaining annual
payments will be paid to your beneficiary(ies) in the same amount as
had been paid to you.
You may elect to have all or a portion of your
benefit paid to your beneficiary(ies) as a lump sum if certain
conditions are met. (Please see Lump-Sum Survivor Benefits below.)
For more information about choosing your beneficiary(ies), please
see the accompanying Deferred Compensation Program Highlights.
Lump-Sum Survivor Benefits
As an alternative to the annuity form of payment described in
Survivor Benefits above, you can select a lump-sum form of survivor
benefit to be paid to your beneficiary in the event of your
death.
Under U.S. federal estate tax law, if your beneficiary is your
spouse, the value of the DSIB benefit would not be subject to estate
tax. However, if your beneficiary is not your spouse, or your spouse
is not a U.S. citizen, and your estate is large enough to be subject
to federal estate taxes, then upon your death the present value of
all of the future DSIB benefit payments would be subject to federal
estate tax. Those taxes would be payable almost immediately, even
though the DSIB benefit would be payable over a number of years.
Special
conditions must be satisfied at the time of your death in
order for a lump-sum payment election to apply, as described in the
section Conditions on Lump-Sum Survivor Benefits below.
There are
two forms of lump-sum benefits available:
1. | A lump-sum survivor benefit The lump-sum benefit is equivalent to the present value of the applicable survivor annuity as of the distribution date, i.e., the year in which the estate tax is due. In the event annuity payments have already commenced at the time of your death, the lump-sum benefit is the present value equivalent of the remaining annuity payments. | |
2. | 50% of the above amount payable as a lump sum, and the remaining portion of the benefit payable in equal annual installments beginning in the year the lump-sum portion is paid. |
Conditions on Lump-Sum Survivor Benefits
You may make an election for one of the lump-sum survivor
benefit payment choices described in the Lump-Sum Survivor Benefits
section above at any time. However, your election will be effective
only if each of the following conditions is satisfied at the time of
your death:
| Your beneficiary must be someone other than your spouse, or must be a spouse who is not a U.S. citizen; | |
| The annual installment benefit payable to your beneficiary must be greater than $50,000; and |

| At least one year must have elapsed between your election of a lump-sum survivor benefit and your death (unless your death is due to an accident, as defined under the JPMorgan Chase Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) Insurance Plan, subsequent to your election). |
If at the time of your death any of these conditions is not
satisfied, your survivor benefit will be paid to your beneficiary
in equal annual installments. Please Note: Even if one or more of
the conditions is not currently satisfied, you may make a
contingent election in case circumstances change and all
conditions are met at the time of your death.
How the Lump-Sum Payments Are Calculated
Under the terms of DSIB, the full lump-sum survivor benefit will be equal to the present value of the applicable annuity payments that would otherwise be paid to your beneficiary. The lump-sum portion of the 50% lump-sum/50% annuity payment choice will be equal to half the value of the full lump-sum benefit.
Under the terms of DSIB, the full lump-sum survivor benefit will be equal to the present value of the applicable annuity payments that would otherwise be paid to your beneficiary. The lump-sum portion of the 50% lump-sum/50% annuity payment choice will be equal to half the value of the full lump-sum benefit.
To determine the present value, a discount rate based on your unique
weighted average rates of return for your cumulative DSIB deferrals
will be used. The rate of return on DSIB deferrals can be found in
the footnotes to your periodic Deferred Compensation account
statements.
Please Note: While JPMorgan Chase will use your DSIB
rate of return to determine the value of a lump-sum payment, the
Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will apply its own discount rate in
calculating the present value of these annuity payments for purposes
of determining estate taxes due. The discount rate used by the IRS
may be lower or higher than the rate of return used by the Deferred
Compensation Program.
Electing a Lump-Sum Survivor Benefit
If you would like to elect a lump-sum survivor benefit, you
must use the DSIB Survivor Benefit Election Form. You can print the
election form from the Deferred Compensation Program home page on My
Rewards @ Work:,
From Work: Company Home > Resources > Benefits
& Programs.
From
Home: www.MyRewardsAtWork.com via the Internet.
You
may make a lump-sum election at any time, even if you have already
begun receiving your payments. Your election can also be changed at
any time. Remember, however, that for a lump-sum payment to apply,
at least one year must elapse between the date of your election and
the date of your death, as outlined in Conditions on Lump-Sum
Survivor Benefits. Similarly, to revoke a lump-sum payment choice
election, at least one year must elapse between the date of
revocation and the date of your death. The date of your election (or
revocation) is the date your election form is acknowledged by
Executive Compensation and Benefits.
Please Note: If you do not submit the election form, in the event of
your death, your benefit will automatically be paid to your
beneficiary in equal annual payments.
