North American Credit Research

Analyst Certification:
The research analyst(s) denoted by an AC on the cover of this report certifies (or, where multiple research analysts are primarily
responsible for this report, the research analyst denoted by an AC on the cover or within the document individually certifies, with respect
to each security or issuer that the research analyst covers in this research) that: (1) all of the views expressed in this report accurately reflect
his or her personal views about any and all of the subject securities or issuers; and (2) no part of any of the research analysts compensation
was, is, or will be directly or indirectly related to the specific recommendations or views expressed by the research analyst(s) in this report.
Conflict of Interest:
This research contains the views, opinions and recommendations of J.P. Morgan credit research analysts. Research analysts
routinely consult with J.P. Morgan trading desk personnel in formulating views, opinions and recommendations in preparing
research. Trading desks may trade, or have traded, as principal on the basis of the research analyst(s) views and report(s).
Therefore, this research may not be independent from the proprietary interests of J.P. Morgan trading desks which may conflict
with your interests. In addition, research analysts receive compensation based, in part, on the quality and accuracy of their analysis,
client feedback, trading desk and firm revenues and competitive factors. As a general matter, J.P. Morgan and/or its affiliates
normally make a market and trade as principal in fixed income securities discussed in research reports.

Important Disclosures
Explanation of Credit Research Ratings:
Ratings System: J.P. Morgan uses the following sector/issuer portfolio weightings: Overweight (over the next three months, the
recommended risk position is expected to outperform the relevant index, sector, or benchmark), Neutral (over the next three months, the
recommended risk position is expected to perform in line with the relevant index, sector, or benchmark), and Underweight (over the next
three months, the recommended risk position is expected to underperform the relevant index, sector, or benchmark). J.P. Morgans
Emerging Market research uses a rating of Marketweight, which is equivalent to a Neutral rating.
Valuation & Methodology: In J.P. Morgans credit research, we assign a rating to each company (Overweight, Underweight or Neutral)
based on our credit view of the company and the relative value of its financial instruments, taking into account the ratings assigned to the
company by credit rating agencies and the market prices for the companys securities. Our credit view of a company is based upon our
opinion as to whether the company will be able service its debt obligations when they become due and payable. We assess this by
analyzing, among other things, the companys credit position using standard credit ratios such as cash flow to debt and fixed charge
coverage (including and excluding capital investment). We also analyze the companys ability to generate cash flow by reviewing standard
operational measures for comparable companies in the sector, such as revenue and earnings growth rates, margins, and the composition of
the companys balance sheet relative to the operational leverage in its business.
