Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously disclosed, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. signed a term sheet with Deutsche Bank National Trust Company (“DBNTC”) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) to resolve (a) pending litigation brought by DBNTC against the FDIC, in its capacity as receiver (the “FDIC-Receiver”) for Washington Mutual Bank (“WMB”) and in its corporate capacity, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as defendants, relating to alleged breaches of certain representations and warranties given by certain WMB affiliates in connection with mortgage securitization agreements and (b) JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.’s outstanding indemnification claims pursuant to the terms of the Purchase & Assumption Agreement between JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and the FDIC relating to JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A.’s purchase of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of Washington Mutual Bank.

On August 19, 2016, the parties executed and delivered definitive agreements resolving the outstanding disputes between JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and the FDIC regarding which WMB liabilities JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. did and did not assume in connection with its acquisition of assets, deposits and certain liabilities of WMB from the FDIC-Receiver in September 2008 (the “WMB Transaction”). The agreements also resolve all disputes among DBNTC, the FDIC and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. concerning the mortgage repurchase and other liabilities asserted by DBNTC in its capacity as trustee of 99 residential mortgage-backed securitization trusts issued or sponsored by WMB or its affiliates in an action filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia and currently on appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. Under the terms of the settlement, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. will also release all of its indemnity and other claims against the WMB receivership estate, including substantially more than $1 billion in claims relating to the WMB Transaction, and be paid $645 million in cash from the WMB receivership estate. The FDIC-Receiver will also provide DBNTC an allowed claim in the receivership estate. The settlement, which remains subject to certain judicial approval procedures, will result in the dismissal of the four WMB-related actions pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia to which the Firm and the FDIC are parties and in pre-tax income to the Firm in the amount of the cash payment in the future period in which it is recognized.
