JPMorgan Chase & Co. announced in September 2013 that JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Chase USA and JPMorgan Bank and Trust Company, N.A. (collectively, the “Banks”) entered into a consent order with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) regarding collections litigation processes pursuant to which the Banks agreed to take certain corrective actions. The consent order was issued in connection with the Banks’ past oversight of third parties, operational processes and control functions related to collections litigation practices, the execution and notarization of sworn documents, and the compliance with the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, in connection with a small percentage of JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s credit card, student loan, auto loan, business banking and commercial banking customers who defaulted on their loan or contract.
Also in September 2013, Chase USA and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. entered into consent orders with the OCC and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) regarding the billing practices for certain credit monitoring products. Those banks stopped enrollments in the credit monitoring products in mid-2012 and have credited or refunded the customers affected. Under the consent orders, the banks paid penalties and will take certain corrective actions.
Chase USA does not expect that the consent orders described above will adversely affect the payment of principal or interest by the issuing entity on the notes offered hereunder.
Chase USA is experiencing heightened scrutiny by its regulators of its compliance with new and existing regulations, and with respect to its controls and operational processes. Accordingly, Chase USA expects that its banking supervisors will in the future continue to take more formal enforcement actions against Chase USA rather than issuing informal supervisory actions or criticisms.
S-2
Subject to the terms and conditions of the underwriting agreement for the offered notes, the issuing entity has agreed to sell to each of the underwriters named below, and each of those underwriters has severally agreed to purchase, the principal amount of the offered notes opposite its name:
Underwriters | Principal Amount | |||
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC | $ | 416,668,000 | ||
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC | 416,666,000 | |||
RBC Capital Markets, LLC | 416,666,000 | |||
|
| |||
Total | $ | 1,250,000,000 | ||
|
| |||
The several underwriters have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of the underwriting agreement, to purchase all $1,250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the offered notes if any of the offered notes are not purchased.
The underwriters have advised the issuing entity that the several underwriters propose initially to offer the offered notes to the public at the public offering price on the cover page of this prospectus supplement, and to certain dealers at that public offering price less a concession not in excess of 0.15000% of the principal amount of the offered notes. The underwriters may allow, and those dealers may reallow to other dealers, a concession not in excess of 0.07500% of the principal amount.
After the public offering, the public offering price and other selling terms may be changed by the underwriters.
Each underwriter of the offered notes has represented and agreed that:
| • | it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 with respect to anything done by it in relation to the offered notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom; and |
| • | it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and it will only communicate or cause to be communicated any invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of any offered notes in circumstances in which section 21(1) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 does not apply to the issuing entity. |
In connection with the sale of the offered notes, the underwriters may engage in:
| • | over-allotments, in which members of the syndicate selling the offered notes sell more notes than the issuing entity actually sold to the syndicate, creating a syndicate short position; |
| • | stabilizing transactions, in which purchases and sales of the offered notes may be made by the members of the selling syndicate at prices that do not exceed a specified maximum; |
| • | syndicate covering transactions, in which members of the selling syndicate purchase the offered notes in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions; and |
| • | penalty bids, by which the underwriter reclaims a selling concession from a syndicate member when any of the offered notes originally sold by that syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions. |
S-3
These stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may cause the price of the offered notes to be higher than it would otherwise be. These transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.
The issuing entity and Chase USA will, jointly and severally, indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under applicable securities laws, or contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities. The issuing entity’s obligation to indemnify the underwriters will be limited to available finance charge collections after making all required payments and required deposits under the indenture.
The issuing entity will receive proceeds of $1,246,589,625 from the sale of the offered notes. This amount represents 99.72717% of the principal amount of those notes and is net of the underwriting discount of $3,125,000. The underwriting discount represents 0.25000% of the principal amount of those notes. Deposits will be made to Class C reserve subaccounts for outstanding Class C notes in an aggregate amount of $18,750,000. The issuing entity will pay these proceeds to Chase USA which will use the proceeds as described in “Use of Proceeds” in this prospectus supplement. Additional issuance expenses are estimated to be $410,000.
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. and an affiliate of Chase USA and of JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association.
