2005 DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
Restated Effective as of December 31, 2008
PREAMBLE
     Effective January 1, 2005, JPMorgan Chase & Co (“Company”) established the
JPMorgan Chase & Co. 2005 Deferred Compensation Plan (“Plan”). The purpose of
the Plan is to provide Participants with an opportunity to defer payment of a
portion their compensation as a means of saving for their retirement or other
purposes.
     The Plan applies to deferrals or vesting of deferrals that occurred on or
after January 1, 2005. Pursuant to final and proposed Treasury Regulations and
Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005-1 promulgated under Section 409A of the
Code, the Plan has been interpreted and operated in good faith compliance with
Section 409A through December 31, 2008. Effective December 31, 2008, this Plan
has been amended to reflect changes in tax laws as mandated by Section 409A of
the Code. The Plan, dated January 1, 2005 and employee communications through
December 31, 2008 shall constitute the plan for the interim period of good faith
compliance. All sections of the Plan shall be interpreted in such a manner as to
comply with Section 409A
     At all times, this Plan is entirely unfunded, both for tax purposes and for
purposes of Title I of ERISA. This Plan is maintained primarily for the purpose
of providing non-qualified deferred compensation for a select group of eligible
management and highly compensated employees and is not a qualified plan within
the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code. Further, the Plan is not subject to
any of the ERISA provisions regarding participation, vesting, funding or
fiduciary responsibility.
     Vested amounts deferred under the JPMorgan Chase Deferred Compensation
Program prior to January 1, 2005 (“ Prior Program”), as well as investment
experience thereon, are separately accounted for and remain subject to the terms
and conditions of that Program as in effect on that date. No change to the
operations or terms of the Program occurred after October 3, 2004 (other than
with respect to Investment Options to be offered in calendar year 2006). The
Prior Program will not comply with Section 409A of the Code, unless there is a
material modification of such Program

Bonuses and, subject to an election being made available, Commissions; provided
that in the case of the first Plan Year in which an Employee becomes an Eligible
Employee in accordance with Article II, such Deferral Election may be made with

Bonus with respect to the calendar year to which the Deferral Election relates.
The Administrator may specify a minimum amount or maximum amount that a
Participant may defer for any Plan Year; provided that if the percentage (or

(i)an amount less than the minimum amount of $5000, the lesser of the specified
minimum or 100% of the Bonus will be deferred or (ii) an amount more than the
maximum annual deferral amount of $1 million, the Deferral Election shall not be

Deferral Election, the Participant may make a Distribution Election on a
Distribution Election Form as to when the Deferred Amount (including investment

shall be paid in 15 equal annual installments and shall only be distributed
following a Separation from Service. If a Participant has selected a specific
year to commence distribution of the DSIB Investment Option and is employed on
such date by the Company or one of its Affiliates, then such amounts shall be
payable following a Separation from Service on the Initial Distribution Date. If
Participant has incurred a Separation from Service and has selected a date of
distribution beyond his/her sixty-fifth birthday, the election shall be
disregarded; and the first installment shall commence on the Initial

Option (other than Private Equity). Such amount (including subsequent investment
experience from other Investment Options) attributable to Private Equity
investment experience, irrespective of any other distribution election shall be
distributed to a Participant in a lump sum in calendar year 2012. If there is
any balance in a Participant’s Account associated with the Deemed Investment in
the Private Equity Investment Option as of the Distribution Date, then such
balance shall be increased or decreased using the average rate of return with
respect to the Private Equity Investment Option up to the Distribution Date.

to any Deferred Amount for a particular Plan Year, the Participant shall receive
the Participant’s Account balance attributable to that Deferred Amount in a lump
sum on the Initial Distribution Date applicable to that Participant; except as
provided above with respect to Deferred Amounts treated as invested in DSIB and
Private Equity Investment Option.

provided in Article VII or a subsequent election as provided in Section 3.3(c).

Participant has incurred an Unforeseeable Emergency. If such a determination is
made, the Administrator may cancel a Deferral Election for the balance of the
Plan Year and, taking into account the dollar value of such cancellation to the
Participant, shall authorize a distribution limited to the amount reasonably
necessary to satisfy the emergency need (which may include amounts necessary to
pay any Federal, state, or local income taxes or penalties reasonably
anticipated to result from the distribution). (For these purposes, a
distribution shall not be allowed to the extent that the hardship may be
relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise, or by
liquidation of the Participant’s assets (to the extent such liquidation would
not itself cause a severe financial hardship).) Any such distribution shall be
made within 90 days immediately following the receipt of the request from
receipt of the Participant’s requests.
     7.8 Acceleration of Distributions.
          (a) FICA Amount. The Plan, at the discretion of Administrator, may
permit the acceleration of an amount equal to the (i) FICA Amount with respect
to any Participant (ii) the income tax at source on wages imposed under
Section 3401 of the Code or the corresponding withholding provisions of
applicable state, local, or foreign tax laws as a result of the payment of the
FICA Amount, and (iii) the additional income tax at source on wages attributable
to the pyramiding Section 3401 wages and taxes. However, the total payment under
this Section shall not exceed the aggregate of the FICA Amount, and the income
tax withholding related to such FICA Amount.
          (b) Payments Upon Income Inclusion Under Section 409A. The Plan, at
the discretion of Administrator, may permit the acceleration of the time or
schedule of a payment to a Participant under the Plan at any time the Plan or
any arrangement that is aggregated with the Plan under Treasury Regulations
fails to meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code with respect to such
Participant. Such payment shall not exceed the amount required to be included in
income as a result of the failure to comply with the requirements of
Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulations.

16

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          (c) Prohibition On Acceleration of Distributions. Other than provided
for in Articles III and VII, the Plan shall not permit the acceleration of the
time or schedule of any payment under the Plan except as provided by the Code or
Treasury Regulations.
     7.9 Delaying Payment for Security laws violation. If, in the reasonable
judgment of the Administrator distribution of a Deferred Amount would violate
Federal securities laws or other applicable laws, then such distribution shall
be delayed to the date at which the Administrator reasonably anticipates that
the payment of the amount will not cause such violation. For this purpose, the
distribution of a Deferred Amount that would cause an inclusion in gross income
or the application of any penalty provision or other provision of the Code shall
not be deemed a violation of applicable laws.
