It's the same conversion that will be happening every tier from now on, think of it this way:

* All JP & VP that currently exists in 4.2 is being combined into JP when 4.3 hits. *

Your JP & VP will be combined into JP, and everything that's currently able to be purchased with VP will be purchasable with JP instead.

In addition, there will be new, better VP items available. You'll start out with 0 VP, since it was just merged with JP. You didn't "lose" anything, though, it's all just merged into JP.

Let's say right now, you're at 2130 VP and 0 JP, 1 random heroic away from purchasing your T12 chest. Then 4.3 hits, and you have 0 valor and 2130 JP. BUT, this is ok, because that T12 you were salivating over is now purchaseable with JP, so it's actually better - you're a few bosses away, rather than a random heroic.

What this process DOESN'T allow you to do is grind out a bunch of Valor now, and use it to instantly buy a T13 valor piece when 4.3 drops. VP we get today is inferor to the VP we'll be getting once 4.3 drops. This is by design, to don't want people to feel like they're a step behind because they didn't grind out stuff before the patch.
