receive a cash payment at maturity, for each $1,000 principal
amount note, equal to (a) $1,000 plus (b) the Contingent Interest
Payment applicable to the final Review Date.
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final
Value is less than the Trigger Value, your payment at maturity
per $1,000 principal amount note will be calculated as follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × Fund Return)
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final
Value is less than the Trigger Value, you will lose more than
40.00% of your principal amount at maturity and could lose all of

Hypothetical Payout Examples
The following examples illustrate payments on the notes linked to a hypothetical Fund, assuming a range of performances for the
hypothetical Fund on the Review Dates. The hypothetical payments set forth below assume the following:
●an Initial Value of $100.00;
●an Interest Barrier and a Trigger Value of $60.00 (equal to 60.00% of the hypothetical Initial Value); and
●a Contingent Interest Rate of 10.25% per annum (payable at a rate of 0.85417% per month).
The hypothetical Initial Value of $100.00 has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and does not represent the actual Initial Value.
The actual Initial Value is the closing price of one share of the Fund on the Pricing Date and is specified under "Key Terms - Initial Value"
in this pricing supplement. For historical data regarding the actual closing prices of one share of the Fund, please see the historical
information set forth under “The Fund” in this pricing supplement.
Each hypothetical payment set forth below is for illustrative purposes only and may not be the actual payment applicable to a purchaser
of the notes. The numbers appearing in the following examples have been rounded for ease of analysis.
Example 1 — Notes are automatically called on the sixth Review Date.

Total Payment

$1,051.25 (5.125% return)
|
Because the closing price of one share of the Fund on the sixth Review Date is greater than or equal to the Initial Value, the notes will be
automatically called for a cash payment, for each $1,000 principal amount note, of $1,008.5417 (or $1,000 plus the Contingent Interest
Payment applicable to the sixth Review Date), payable on the applicable Call Settlement Date. The notes are not automatically callable
before the sixth Review Date, even though the closing price of one share of the Fund on each of the first, second, third, fourth and fifth
Review Dates is greater than the Initial Value. When added to the Contingent Interest Payments received with respect to the prior
Review Dates, the total amount paid, for each $1,000 principal amount note, is $1,051.25. No further payments will be made on the
notes.

Because the notes have not been automatically called and the Final Value is greater than or equal to the Trigger Value, the payment at
maturity, for each $1,000 principal amount note, will be $1,008.5417 (or $1,000 plus the Contingent Interest Payment applicable to the
final Review Date). When added to the Contingent Interest Payments received with respect to the prior Review Dates, the total amount
paid, for each $1,000 principal amount note, is $1,025.625.

Because the notes have not been automatically called, the Final Value is less than the Trigger Value and the Fund Return is -50.00%,
the payment at maturity will be $500.00 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:
$1,000 + [$1,000 × (-50.00%)] = $500.00
The hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments on the notes shown above apply only if you hold the notes for their entire term
or until automatically called. These hypotheticals do not reflect the fees or expenses that would be associated with any sale in the
secondary market. If these fees and expenses were included, the hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments shown above would
likely be lower.
Selected Risk Considerations
An investment in the notes involves significant risks. These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” sections of the
accompanying prospectus supplement and product supplement.
●YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS —
The notes do not guarantee any return of principal. If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final Value is less than
the Trigger Value, you will lose 1% of the principal amount of your notes for every 1% that the Final Value is less than the Initial
Value. Accordingly, under these circumstances, you will lose more than 40.00% of your principal amount at maturity and could lose
all of your principal amount at maturity.
●THE NOTES DO NOT GUARANTEE THE PAYMENT OF INTEREST AND MAY NOT PAY ANY INTEREST AT ALL —
If the notes have not been automatically called, we will make a Contingent Interest Payment with respect to a Review Date only if
the closing price of one share of the Fund on that Review Date is greater than or equal to the Interest Barrier. If the closing price of
one share of the Fund on that Review Date is less than the Interest Barrier, no Contingent Interest Payment will be made with
respect to that Review Date. Accordingly, if the closing price of one share of the Fund on each Review Date is less than the Interest
Barrier, you will not receive any interest payments over the term of the notes.
●CREDIT RISKS OF JPMORGAN FINANCIAL AND JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. —
Investors are dependent on our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s ability to pay all amounts due on the notes. Any actual or potential
change in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s creditworthiness or credit spreads, as determined by the market for taking that credit risk,
is likely to adversely affect the value of the notes. If we and JPMorgan Chase & Co. were to default on our payment obligations, you
may not receive any amounts owed to you under the notes and you could lose your entire investment.

PS-4 | Structured Investments

|
|

Miners ETF
|
●AS A FINANCE SUBSIDIARY, JPMORGAN FINANCIAL HAS NO INDEPENDENT OPERATIONS AND HAS LIMITED ASSETS —
As a finance subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co., we have no independent operations beyond the issuance and administration of
our securities. Aside from the initial capital contribution from JPMorgan Chase & Co., substantially all of our assets relate to
obligations of our affiliates to make payments under loans made by us or other intercompany agreements. As a result, we are
dependent upon payments from our affiliates to meet our obligations under the notes. If these affiliates do not make payments to us
and we fail to make payments on the notes, you may have to seek payment under the related guarantee by JPMorgan Chase & Co.,
and that guarantee will rank pari passu with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of JPMorgan Chase & Co.
●THE APPRECIATION POTENTIAL OF THE NOTES IS LIMITED TO THE SUM OF ANY CONTINGENT INTEREST PAYMENTS
THAT MAY BE PAID OVER THE TERM OF THE NOTES,
regardless of any appreciation in the price of one share of the Fund, which may be significant. You will not participate in any
appreciation in the price of one share of the Fund.
●POTENTIAL CONFLICTS —
We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the notes. In performing these duties, our and JPMorgan Chase &
Co.’s economic interests are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the notes. It is possible that hedging or trading
activities of ours or our affiliates in connection with the notes could result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value
of the notes declines. Please refer to “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest” in the accompanying product
supplement.
●THERE ARE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FUND —
The Fund is subject to management risk, which is the risk that the investment strategies of the Fund’s investment adviser, the
implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. These constraints could
adversely affect the market price of the shares of the Fund and, consequently, the value of the notes.
●THE PERFORMANCE AND MARKET VALUE OF THE FUND, PARTICULARLY DURING PERIODS OF MARKET VOLATILITY,
MAY NOT CORRELATE WITH THE PERFORMANCE OF THE FUND’S UNDERLYING INDEX AS WELL AS THE NET ASSET
VALUE PER SHARE —
The Fund does not fully replicate its Underlying Index (as defined under “The Fund” below) and may hold securities different from
those included in its Underlying Index. In addition, the performance of the Fund will reflect additional transaction costs and fees that
are not included in the calculation of its Underlying Index. All of these factors may lead to a lack of correlation between the
performance of the Fund and its Underlying Index. In addition, corporate actions with respect to the equity securities underlying the
Fund (such as mergers and spin-offs) may impact the variance between the performances of the Fund and its Underlying Index.
Finally, because the shares of the Fund are traded on a securities exchange and are subject to market supply and investor demand,
the market value of one share of the Fund may differ from the net asset value per share of the Fund.
During periods of market volatility, securities underlying the Fund may be unavailable in the secondary market, market participants
may be unable to calculate accurately the net asset value per share of the Fund and the liquidity of the Fund may be adversely
affected. This kind of market volatility may also disrupt the ability of market participants to create and redeem shares of the Fund.
Further, market volatility may adversely affect, sometimes materially, the prices at which market participants are willing to buy and
sell shares of the Fund. As a result, under these circumstances, the market value of shares of the Fund may vary substantially from
the net asset value per share of the Fund. For all of the foregoing reasons, the performance of the Fund may not correlate with the
performance of its Underlying Index as well as the net asset value per share of the Fund, which could materially and adversely
affect the value of the notes in the secondary market and/or reduce any payment on the notes.
●NON-U.S. SECURITIES RISK —
Some of the equity securities held by the Fund have been issued by non-U.S. companies. Investments in securities linked to the
value of such non-U.S. equity securities involve risks associated with the securities markets in the home countries of the issuers of
those non-U.S. equity securities. Also, there is generally less publicly available information about companies in some of these
jurisdictions than there is about U.S. companies that are subject to the reporting requirements of the SEC.
●THE NOTES ARE SUBJECT TO CURRENCY EXCHANGE RISK —
Because the prices of the non-U.S. equity securities held by the Fund are converted into U.S. dollars for purposes of calculating the
net asset value of the Fund, holders of the notes will be exposed to currency exchange rate risk with respect to each of the
currencies in which the non-U.S. equity securities held by the Fund trade. Your net exposure will depend on the extent to which
those currencies strengthen or weaken against the U.S. dollar and the relative weight of equity securities held by the Fund
denominated in each of those currencies. If, taking into account the relevant weighting, the U.S. dollar strengthens against those
currencies, the price of the Fund will be adversely affected and any payment on the notes may be reduced.

Miners ETF
|
●RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE GOLD AND SILVER MINING INDUSTRIES —
All or substantially all of the equity securities held by the VanEck® Junior Gold Miners ETF are issued by companies whose primary
line of business is directly associated with the gold and/or silver mining industries. As a result, the value of the notes may be subject
to greater volatility and be more adversely affected by a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence affecting these industries
than a different investment linked to securities of a more broadly diversified group of issuers. Investments related to gold and silver
are considered speculative and are affected by a variety of factors. Competitive pressures may have a significant effect on the
financial condition of gold and silver mining companies. Also, gold and silver mining companies are highly dependent on the price of
gold and silver bullion, respectively, and may be adversely affected by a variety of worldwide economic, financial and political
factors. The price of gold and silver may fluctuate substantially over short periods of time so the VanEck® Junior Gold Miners ETF's
share price may be more volatile than other types of investments. Fluctuation in the prices of gold and silver may be due to a
number of factors, including changes in inflation, changes in currency exchange rates and changes in industrial and commercial
demand for metals (including fabricator demand). Additionally, increased environmental or labor costs may depress the value of
metal investments. In particular, a drop in the price of gold and/or silver bullion would particularly adversely affect the profitability of
small- and medium-capitalization mining companies and their ability to secure financing. Furthermore, companies that are only in
the exploration stage are typically unable to adopt specific strategies for controlling the impact of the price of gold or silver. A
significant number of the companies held by the VanEck® Junior Gold Miners ETF may be early stage mining companies that are in
the exploration stage only or that hold properties that might not ultimately produce gold or silver. The exploration and development
of mineral deposits involve significant financial risks over a significant period of time, which even a combination of careful
evaluation, experience and knowledge may not eliminate. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing
mines. Major expenditures may be required to establish reserves by drilling and to construct mining and processing facilities at a
site. In addition, many early stage miners operate at a loss and are dependent on securing equity and/or debt financing, which
might be more difficult to secure for an early stage mining company than for a more established counterpart. These factors could
affect the gold and silver mining industries and could affect the value of the equity securities held by the VanEck® Junior Gold
Miners ETF and the price of the VanEck® Junior Gold Miners ETF during the term of the notes, which may adversely affect the value
of your notes.
●THE BENEFIT PROVIDED BY THE TRIGGER VALUE MAY TERMINATE ON THE FINAL REVIEW DATE—
If the Final Value is less than the Trigger Value and the notes have not been automatically called, the benefit provided by the Trigger
Value will terminate and you will be fully exposed to any depreciation in the closing price of one share of the Fund.
●THE AUTOMATIC CALL FEATURE MAY FORCE A POTENTIAL EARLY EXIT —
If your notes are automatically called, the term of the notes may be reduced to as short as approximately six months and you will not
receive any Contingent Interest Payments after the applicable Call Settlement Date. There is no guarantee that you would be able to
reinvest the proceeds from an investment in the notes at a comparable return and/or with a comparable interest rate for a similar
level of risk. Even in cases where the notes are called before maturity, you are not entitled to any fees and commissions described
on the front cover of this pricing supplement.
●YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE DIVIDENDS ON THE FUND OR THE SECURITIES HELD BY THE FUND OR HAVE ANY RIGHTS
WITH RESPECT TO THE FUND OR THOSE SECURITIES.
●THE ANTI-DILUTION PROTECTION FOR THE FUND IS LIMITED —
The calculation agent will make adjustments to the Share Adjustment Factor for certain events affecting the shares of the Fund.
However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment in response to all events that could affect the shares of the Fund. If an
event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to make an adjustment, the value of the notes may be materially and
adversely affected.
●THE RISK OF THE CLOSING PRICE OF ONE SHARE OF THE FUND FALLING BELOW THE INTEREST BARRIER OR THE
TRIGGER VALUE IS GREATER IF THE PRICE OF ONE SHARE OF THE FUND IS VOLATILE.
●LACK OF LIQUIDITY—
The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Accordingly, the price at which you may be able to trade your notes is likely
to depend on the price, if any, at which JPMS is willing to buy the notes. You may not be able to sell your notes. The notes are not
designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your notes to maturity.
●THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES IS LOWER THAN THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE (PRICE TO PUBLIC) OF THE
NOTES —
The estimated value of the notes is only an estimate determined by reference to several factors. The original issue price of the notes
exceeds the estimated value of the notes because costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the notes are included in
the original issue price of the notes. These costs include the selling commissions, the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates
expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the notes and the estimated cost of hedging our
obligations under the notes. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.
●THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES DOES NOT REPRESENT FUTURE VALUES OF THE NOTES AND MAY DIFFER
FROM OTHERS’ ESTIMATES —
See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.
●THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES IS DERIVED BY REFERENCE TO AN INTERNAL FUNDING RATE —
The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated value of the notes may differ from the market-implied funding
rate for vanilla fixed income instruments of a similar maturity issued by JPMorgan Chase & Co. or its affiliates. Any difference may
be based on, among other things, our and our affiliates’ view of the funding value of the notes as well as the higher issuance,
operational and ongoing liability management costs of the notes in comparison to those costs for the conventional fixed income
instruments of JPMorgan Chase & Co. This internal funding rate is based on certain market inputs and assumptions, which may
prove to be incorrect, and is intended to approximate the prevailing market replacement funding rate for the notes. The use of an
internal funding rate and any potential changes to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the notes and any secondary
market prices of the notes. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.

|
●THE VALUE OF THE NOTES AS PUBLISHED BY JPMS (AND WHICH MAY BE REFLECTED ON CUSTOMER ACCOUNT
STATEMENTS) MAY BE HIGHER THAN THE THEN-CURRENT ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES FOR A LIMITED TIME
PERIOD —
We generally expect that some of the costs included in the original issue price of the notes will be partially paid back to you in
connection with any repurchases of your notes by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period.
See “Secondary Market Prices of the Notes” in this pricing supplement for additional information relating to this initial period.
Accordingly, the estimated value of your notes during this initial period may be lower than the value of the notes as published by
JPMS (and which may be shown on your customer account statements).
●SECONDARY MARKET PRICES OF THE NOTES WILL LIKELY BE LOWER THAN THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE OF THE
NOTES —
Any secondary market prices of the notes will likely be lower than the original issue price of the notes because, among other things,
secondary market prices take into account our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances and, also,
because secondary market prices may exclude selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, and estimated hedging costs
that are included in the original issue price of the notes. As a result, the price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to buy the notes
from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, is likely to be lower than the original issue price. Any sale by you prior to the
Maturity Date could result in a substantial loss to you.
●SECONDARY MARKET PRICES OF THE NOTES WILL BE IMPACTED BY MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS —
The secondary market price of the notes during their term will be impacted by a number of economic and market factors, which may
either offset or magnify each other, aside from the selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, estimated hedging costs
and the price of one share of the Fund. Additionally, independent pricing vendors and/or third party broker-dealers may publish a
price for the notes, which may also be reflected on customer account statements. This price may be different (higher or lower) than
the price of the notes, if any, at which JPMS may be willing to purchase your notes in the secondary market. See “Risk Factors —
Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — Secondary market prices of the notes will be
impacted by many economic and market factors” in the accompanying product supplement.
The Fund
The VanEck® Junior Gold Miners ETF (formerly known as the VanEck Vectors® Junior Gold Miners ETF) is an exchange-traded fund of
the VanEck® ETF Trust, a registered investment company, that seeks to replicate as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the
price and yield performance of the MVIS® Global Junior Gold Miners Index, which we refer to as the Underlying Index with respect to the
VanEck® Junior Gold Miners ETF. The MVIS® Global Junior Gold Miners Index is a modified market capitalization weighted index that is
designed to track the performance of the global gold and silver mining small-cap segment. For additional information about the VanEck®
Junior Gold Miners ETF, see “Fund Descriptions — The VanEck Vectors® ETFs” in the accompanying underlying supplement.
Historical Information
The following graph sets forth the historical performance of the Fund based on the weekly historical closing prices of one share of the
Fund from January 5, 2018 through June 23, 2023. The closing price of one share of the Fund on June 29, 2023 was $35.08. We
obtained the closing prices above and below from the Bloomberg Professional® service (“Bloomberg”), without independent verification.
The closing prices above and below may have been adjusted by Bloomberg for actions taken by the Fund, such as stock splits.
The historical closing prices of one share of the Fund should not be taken as an indication of future performance, and no assurance can
be given as to the closing price of one share of the Fund on any Review Date. There can be no assurance that the performance of the
Fund will result in the return of any of your principal amount or the payment of any interest.

Tax Treatment
You should review carefully the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product
supplement no. 4-I. In determining our reporting responsibilities we intend to treat (i) the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes as
prepaid forward contracts with associated contingent coupons and (ii) any Contingent Interest Payments as ordinary income, as
described in the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders — Notes
Treated as Prepaid Forward Contracts with Associated Contingent Coupons” in the accompanying product supplement. Based on the
advice of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, our special tax counsel, we believe that this is a reasonable treatment, but that there are other
reasonable treatments that the IRS or a court may adopt, in which case the timing and character of any income or loss on the notes
could be materially affected. In addition, in 2007 Treasury and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal
income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments. The notice focuses in particular on whether to require
investors in these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related
topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments and the relevance of factors such as the nature of the
underlying property to which the instruments are linked. While the notice requests comments on appropriate transition rules and effective
dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially affect the tax
consequences of an investment in the notes, possibly with retroactive effect. The discussions above and in the accompanying product
supplement do not address the consequences to taxpayers subject to special tax accounting rules under Section 451(b) of the Code.
You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the notes, including
possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by the notice described above.
Non-U.S. Holders — Tax Considerations. The U.S. federal income tax treatment of Contingent Interest Payments is uncertain, and
although we believe it is reasonable to take a position that Contingent Interest Payments are not subject to U.S. withholding tax (at least
if an applicable Form W-8 is provided), it is expected that withholding agents will (and we, if we are the withholding agent, intend to)
withhold on any Contingent Interest Payment paid to a Non-U.S. Holder generally at a rate of 30% or at a reduced rate specified by an
applicable income tax treaty under an “other income” or similar provision. We will not be required to pay any additional amounts with
respect to amounts withheld. In order to claim an exemption from, or a reduction in, the 30% withholding tax, a Non-U.S. Holder of the
notes must comply with certification requirements to establish that it is not a U.S. person and is eligible for such an exemption or
reduction under an applicable tax treaty. If you are a Non-U.S. Holder, you should consult your tax adviser regarding the tax treatment of
the notes, including the possibility of obtaining a refund of any withholding tax and the certification requirement described above.
Section 871(m) of the Code and Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 871(m)”) generally impose a 30% withholding
tax (unless an income tax treaty applies) on dividend equivalents paid or deemed paid to Non-U.S. Holders with respect to certain
financial instruments linked to U.S. equities or indices that include U.S. equities. Section 871(m) provides certain exceptions to this
withholding regime, including for instruments linked to certain broad-based indices that meet requirements set forth in the applicable
Treasury regulations. Additionally, a recent IRS notice excludes from the scope of Section 871(m) instruments issued prior to January 1,
2025 that do not have a delta of one with respect to underlying securities that could pay U.S.-source dividends for U.S. federal income
tax purposes (each an “Underlying Security”). Based on certain determinations made by us, our special tax counsel is of the opinion that
Section 871(m) should not apply to the notes with regard to Non-U.S. Holders. Our determination is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS
may disagree with this determination. Section 871(m) is complex and its application may depend on your particular circumstances,
including whether you enter into other transactions with respect to an Underlying Security. You should consult your tax adviser regarding
the potential application of Section 871(m) to the notes.
In the event of any withholding on the notes, we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts so withheld.
The Estimated Value of the Notes
The estimated value of the notes set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement is equal to the sum of the values of the following
hypothetical components: (1) a fixed-income debt component with the same maturity as the notes, valued using the internal funding rate
described below, and (2) the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the notes. The estimated value of the notes does
not represent a minimum price at which JPMS would be willing to buy your notes in any secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The
internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated value of the notes may differ from the market-implied funding rate for
vanilla fixed income instruments of a similar maturity issued by JPMorgan Chase & Co. or its affiliates. Any difference may be based on,
among other things, our and our affiliates’ view of the funding value of the notes as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing
liability management costs of the notes in comparison to those costs for the conventional fixed income instruments of JPMorgan Chase
& Co. This internal funding rate is based on certain market inputs and assumptions, which may prove to be incorrect, and is intended to
approximate the prevailing market replacement funding rate for the notes. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential changes
to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the notes and any secondary market prices of the notes. For additional
information, see “Selected Risk Considerations — The Estimated Value of the Notes Is Derived by Reference to an Internal Funding
Rate” in this pricing supplement.

The value of the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the notes is derived from internal pricing models of our
affiliates. These models are dependent on inputs such as the traded market prices of comparable derivative instruments and on various
other inputs, some of which are market-observable, and which can include volatility, dividend rates, interest rates and other factors, as
well as assumptions about future market events and/or environments. Accordingly, the estimated value of the notes is determined when
the terms of the notes are set based on market conditions and other relevant factors and assumptions existing at that time.
The estimated value of the notes does not represent future values of the notes and may differ from others’ estimates. Different pricing
models and assumptions could provide valuations for the notes that are greater than or less than the estimated value of the notes. In
addition, market conditions and other relevant factors in the future may change, and any assumptions may prove to be incorrect. On
future dates, the value of the notes could change significantly based on, among other things, changes in market conditions, our or
JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s creditworthiness, interest rate movements and other relevant factors, which may impact the price, if any, at
which JPMS would be willing to buy notes from you in secondary market transactions.
The estimated value of the notes is lower than the original issue price of the notes because costs associated with selling, structuring and
hedging the notes are included in the original issue price of the notes. These costs include the selling commissions paid to JPMS and
other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in
hedging our obligations under the notes and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the notes. Because hedging our
obligations entails risk and may be influenced by market forces beyond our control, this hedging may result in a profit that is more or less
than expected, or it may result in a loss. A portion of the profits, if any, realized in hedging our obligations under the notes may be
allowed to other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, and we or one or more of our affiliates will retain any remaining hedging profits. See
“Selected Risk Considerations — The Estimated Value of the Notes Is Lower Than the Original Issue Price (Price to Public) of the Notes”
in this pricing supplement.
Secondary Market Prices of the Notes
For information about factors that will impact any secondary market prices of the notes, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the
Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — Secondary market prices of the notes will be impacted by many economic
and market factors” in the accompanying product supplement. In addition, we generally expect that some of the costs included in the
original issue price of the notes will be partially paid back to you in connection with any repurchases of your notes by JPMS in an amount
that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period. These costs can include selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if
any, and, in some circumstances, estimated hedging costs and our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt
issuances. This initial predetermined time period is intended to be the shorter of six months and one-half of the stated term of the notes.
The length of any such initial period reflects the structure of the notes, whether our affiliates expect to earn a profit in connection with our
hedging activities, the estimated costs of hedging the notes and when these costs are incurred, as determined by our affiliates. See
“Selected Risk Considerations — The Value of the Notes as Published by JPMS (and Which May Be Reflected on Customer Account
Statements) May Be Higher Than the Then-Current Estimated Value of the Notes for a Limited Time Period” in this pricing supplement.
Supplemental Use of Proceeds
The notes are offered to meet investor demand for products that reflect the risk-return profile and market exposure provided by the
notes. See “How the Notes Work” and “Hypothetical Payout Examples” in this pricing supplement for an illustration of the risk-return
profile of the notes and “The Fund” in this pricing supplement for a description of the market exposure provided by the notes.
The original issue price of the notes is equal to the estimated value of the notes plus the selling commissions paid to JPMS and other
affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, plus (minus) the projected profits (losses) that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent
in hedging our obligations under the notes, plus the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the notes.
