Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(b) JPMorgan Chase & Co., a Delaware corporation (“JPMorgan Chase” or the “Firm”), has announced that James E. Staley, the Chairman of the Firm's Corporate & Investment Bank, will be leaving the Firm to join BlueMountain Capital Management as a Managing Partner and Member of its Management Committee.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

The Firm and a number of other financial institutions have entered into a settlement agreement with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System providing for the termination of the Independent Foreclosure Review programs that had been required under the Consent Orders with such banking regulators relating to each bank's residential mortgage servicing, foreclosure and loss-mitigation activities.  Under this settlement, the Firm will make a cash payment of $753 million into a settlement fund for distribution to qualified borrowers.  The Firm has also committed an additional $1.2 billion to foreclosure prevention actions under the settlement, which will be fulfilled through credits given to the Firm under the framework established by the global settlement previously entered into with certain federal and state government agencies. The Firm expects to incur a charge of approximately $700 million (pretax) in the fourth quarter of 2012 related to the Independent Foreclosure Review settlement. The Firm will report its fourth quarter 2012 results on January 16, 2013.
