Item 8.01 Other Events.

On October 16, 2013, JPMorgan Chase & Co. (the “Firm”) announced that its subsidiary, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan Chase Bank”), had entered into a consent order with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”) in resolution of the CFTC’s investigation of trading of credit default swap indices by certain former London-based traders in the Firm’s Chief Investment Office (“CIO”). JPMorgan Chase Bank has agreed to pay a $100 million civil money penalty and to continue to implement enhancements to JPMorgan Chase Bank’s control and supervision systems in connection with swaps trading activities. The CFTC’s action is based on findings of violation concerning CIO trading activity on February 29, 2012 in a particular credit default swap index instrument. The CFTC’s order may be accessed at its website: www.cftc.gov.

On September 19, 2013, the Firm settled several other CIO-related matters with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority.

Litigation and certain government investigations relating to the CIO, including by the Department of Justice and the Massachusetts Securities Division, remain ongoing.
