SCHEDULE II

On May 20, 2015, JPMorgan Chase announced settlements with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Reserve relating to the JPMorgan Chases foreign exchange (FX) trading business. Under the DOJ resolution, JPMorgan Chase entered a plea of guilty to a single antitrust violation and agreed to pay a fine of $550 million. Judgment consistent with the terms of the plea agreement was entered on January 10, 2017. Under the resolution with the Federal Reserve, JPMorgan Chase has agreed to a fine of $342 million and has agreed to the entry of a Consent Order. The settlements also call for certain remedial actions.

On February 29, 2016, JPMorgan Chase and the Indiana Secretary of State, Securities Division (the Division) entered into a Consent Agreement to resolve the Divisions investigation into JPMorgan Chases residential mortgage backed securities business for the period from 2005 to 2008. The Division alleged that JPMorgan Chases conduct was outside the standards of honesty and ethics generally accepted in the securities trade and industry. On March 1, 2016, the Division entered an Order to Adopt the Consent Agreement.

On November 17, 2016, JPMorgan Chase entered into a settlement with the SEC under which JPMorgan Chase, without admitting or denying the allegations, consented to the entry of an order (the Order) that finds that JPMorgan Chase violated Sections 13(B)(2)(A), 13(B)(2)(B) and 30A of the Exchange Act. The Order finds that JPMorgan Chase violated the Anti-Bribery provisions of the federal securities laws by corruptly providing valuable internships and employment to relatives and friends of foreign government officials (Referral Hires) in order to assist JPMorgan Chase in retaining and obtaining business. In addition, the Order finds that JPMorgan Chase violated the books and records provisions and the internal accounting controls provisions of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) in conjunction with certain Referral Hires. The Order directs JPMorgan Chase to cease-and-desist from committing or causing any violations and any future violations of the above-enumerated statutory provisions. Additionally, the Order required JPMorgan Chase to pay a total of $105,507,668 in disgorgement and prejudgment interest of $25,083,737, which was paid on November 27, 2016. In addition, JPMorgan Chase was ordered to comply with certain undertakings, including reporting to the SEC staff periodically, at no less than nine-month intervals during a three-year term, the status of JPMorgan Chases remediation and implementation of compliance measures relating to FCPA and applicable anti-corruption laws, and certifying that JPMorgan Chase has made a good faith effort to comply with the undertakings.

JPMorgan Chase entered into another settlement on November 17, 2016 related to the same conduct referenced in the immediately preceding paragraph. JPMorgan Chase entered into a settlement with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRB) resulting in the FRB issuing an order (the FRB Order). The FRB Order directs JPMorgan Chase to cease-and-desist such conduct and to pay a civil money penalty of $61,932,500 which was paid on November 17, 2016. In addition, the FRB Order requires JPMorgan Chase to take the following steps: (a) submit an acceptable written plan, and timeline for implementation, to improve senior managements oversight of JPMorgan Chases firm-wide compliance risk management program with regard to compliance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations and applicable internal policies and procedures in connection with the firms hiring of candidates who were referred, directly or indirectly, by foreign government officials and existing or prospective commercial clients (Referral Hiring Practices); (b) submit an acceptable written plan, and timeline for implementation, to enhance the effectiveness of JPMorgan Chases firm-wide compliance risk management program with regard to the oversight and implementation of anti-bribery processes and procedures in connection with the firms Referral Hiring Practices; and (c) submit an acceptable written plan, and timeline for implementation, to enhance the effectiveness of JPMorgan Chases compliance with internal policies and procedures as well as applicable U.S. laws and regulations in its Referral Hiring Practices.


In addition to the above matters, the Reporting Persons are defendants or putative defendants in numerous legal proceedings, including private civil litigations and regulatory/government investigations. The litigations range from individual actions involving a single plaintiff to class action lawsuits with potentially millions of class members. Investigations involve both formal and informal proceedings, by both governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations. These legal proceedings are at varying stages of adjudication, arbitration or investigation, and involve each of the Filing Partys lines of business and geographies and a wide variety of claims (including common law tort and contract claims and statutory antitrust, securities and consumer protection claims), some of which present novel legal theories. Based on current knowledge, the Reporting Persons believe they have asserted meritorious defenses to the claims asserted against them in their currently outstanding legal proceedings, intends to defend themselves vigorously in all such matters and do not believe that any pending legal proceeding would have a material effect on the Reporting Persons performance of the services contemplated. For further discussion, please refer to JPMorgan Chases publicly-filed disclosures, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC and other regulatory reports, which descriptions are hereby incorporated by reference.
