Dual Directional Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the S&P 500® Index due September 3, 2026
Trigger Performance Leveraged Upside SecuritiesSM
Principal at Risk Securities
Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co.
The Dual Directional Trigger PLUS, or “Trigger PLUS,” will pay no interest and do not guarantee any return of your principal at maturity. At maturity, if the underlying index has appreciated in value, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment plus leveraged upside performance of the underlying index, subject to a maximum upside payment at maturity. If the underlying index has depreciated in value but by no more than 20%, investors will receive at maturity the stated principal amount of the Trigger PLUS plus an unleveraged positive return equal to the absolute value of the percentage decline, which will effectively be limited to a positive 20% return. However, if the underlying index has depreciated by more than 20% in value, at maturity investors will lose the benefit of the absolute return feature and will lose 1% of the stated principal amount for every 1% of decline in the value of the underlying index over the term of the Trigger PLUS. The Trigger PLUS are for investors who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income and appreciation above the maximum upside payment at maturity in exchange for the leverage and absolute return features that in each case apply to a limited range of the performance of the underlying index. The Trigger PLUS are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, which we refer to as JPMorgan Financial, the payment on which is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., issued as part of JPMorgan Financial’s Medium-Term Notes, Series A, program. Any payment on the Trigger PLUS is subject to the credit risk of JPMorgan Financial, as issuer of the Trigger PLUS, and the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase & Co., as guarantor of the Trigger PLUS. The investor may lose some or all of the stated principal amount of the Trigger PLUS.

Key Investment Rationale
Trigger PLUS offer leveraged upside exposure to an underlying asset and the opportunity, through the absolute return feature, to earn a positive return at maturity for a limited range of negative performance of the underlying asset. At maturity, if the underlying asset has appreciated, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment plus leveraged upside performance of the underlying asset, subject to the maximum upside payment at maturity. At maturity, if the underlying asset has depreciated in value but by no more than 20%, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment plus an unleveraged positive return equal to the absolute value of the percentage decline in the underlying asset, which will effectively be limited to a positive 20% return. However, at maturity, if the underlying asset has depreciated in value by more than 20%, investors will lose the benefit of the absolute return feature and will lose 1% of the stated principal amount for every 1% of decline, without any buffer. Investors may lose some or all of the stated principal amount of the Trigger PLUS.
| Leveraged Upside Performance | The Trigger PLUS offer investors an opportunity to capture enhanced returns for a certain range of positive performance relative to a direct investment in the underlying index. |
| Absolute Return Feature | The Trigger PLUS offer investors an opportunity to earn an unleveraged positive return if the final index value is less than or equal to the initial index value but is greater than or equal to the trigger level. |
| Upside Scenario if the Underlying Index Appreciates | The final index value is greater than the initial index value and, at maturity, the Trigger PLUS pay the stated principal amount of $1,000 plus a return equal to 200% of the index percent change, subject to the maximum upside payment at maturity of $1,325.00 (132.50% of the stated principal amount) per Trigger PLUS. |
| Absolute Return Scenario | The final index value is less than or equal to the initial index value but is greater than or equal to the trigger level, which is 80% of the initial index value. In this case, the Trigger PLUS pay a 1% positive return for each 1% negative return of the underlying index. For example, if the final index value is 5% less than the initial index value, the Trigger PLUS will provide a total positive return of 5% at maturity. The maximum return you may receive in this scenario is a positive 20% return at maturity. |
| Downside Scenario | The final index value is less than the trigger level. In this case, the Trigger PLUS pay an amount that is over 20% less than the stated principal amount and this decrease will be by an amount that is proportionate to the percentage decline in the final index value from the initial index value. (Example: if the underlying index decreases in value by 30%, the Trigger PLUS will pay an amount that is less than the stated principal amount by 30%, or $700.00 per Trigger PLUS.) |

How the Dual Directional Trigger PLUS Work
Payoff Diagram
The payoff diagram below illustrates the payment at maturity on the Trigger PLUS based on the following terms:
| Stated principal amount: | $1,000 per Trigger PLUS |
| Leverage factor: | 200% |
| Trigger level: | 80% of the initial index value |

 |
How it works
| § | Upside Scenario. If the final index value is greater than the initial index value, for each $1,000 principal amount Trigger PLUS, investors will receive the $1,000 stated principal amount plus a return equal to 200% of the appreciation of the underlying index over the term of the Trigger PLUS, subject to the maximum upside payment at maturity. Under the terms of the Trigger PLUS, an investor will realize the maximum upside payment at maturity at a final index value of 116.25% of the initial index value. |
| § | For example, if the underlying index appreciates 5%, investors will receive a 10% return, or $1,100.00 per Trigger PLUS. |
| § | Absolute Return Scenario. If the final index value is less than or equal to the initial index value but is greater than or equal to the trigger level, investors will receive a 1% positive return on the Trigger PLUS for each 1% negative return of the underlying index. |
| § | For example, if the underlying index depreciates 5%, investors will receive a 5% return, or $1,050.00 per Trigger PLUS. |
| § | The maximum return you may receive in this scenario is a positive 20% return at maturity. |
| § | Downside Scenario. If the final index value is less than the trigger level, investors will lose the benefit of the absolute return feature and will instead receive an amount that is significantly less than the stated principal amount by an amount proportionate to the percentage decrease of the final index value from the initial index value. This amount will be less than 80% of the stated principal amount per Trigger PLUS. |
| § | For example, if the underlying index depreciates 50%, investors will lose 50% of their principal and receive only $500.00 per Trigger PLUS at maturity, or 50% of the stated principal amount. |

The hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments on the Trigger PLUS shown above apply only if you hold the Trigger PLUS for their entire term. These hypotheticals do not reflect 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.

Risk Factors
The following is a non-exhaustive list of certain key risk factors for investors in the Trigger PLUS. For further discussion of these and other risks, you should read the sections entitled “Risk Factors” of the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying product supplement. We urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers in connection with your investment in the Trigger PLUS.
Risks Relating to the Trigger PLUS Generally
| § | The Trigger PLUS do not pay interest or guarantee the return of any principal and your investment in the Trigger PLUS may result in a loss. The terms of the Trigger PLUS differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that the Trigger PLUS do not pay interest or guarantee the payment of any principal amount at maturity. If the final index value is less than the trigger level (which is 80% of the initial index value), you will lose the benefit of the absolute return feature and the payment at maturity will be an amount in cash that is over 20% less than the stated principal amount of each Trigger PLUS, and this decrease will be by an amount that is proportionate to the decrease in the value of the underlying index and may be zero. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the Trigger PLUS, and, accordingly, you could lose your entire initial investment in the Trigger PLUS. |
| § | The appreciation potential of the Trigger PLUS is limited by the maximum upside payment at maturity if the underlying index has appreciated. The appreciation potential of Trigger PLUS is limited by the maximum upside payment at maturity of $1,325.00 (132.50% of the stated principal amount) per Trigger PLUS if the underlying index has appreciated. Although the leverage factor provides 200% exposure to any increase in the final index value as compared to the initial index value on the valuation date, because the maximum upside payment at maturity will be limited to 132.50% of the stated principal amount for the Trigger PLUS, any increase in the final index value by more than 16.25% will not further increase the return on the Trigger PLUS. |
| § | Your maximum downside gain on the Trigger PLUS is limited by the trigger level. If the final index value is less than or equal to the initial index value and greater than or equal to the trigger level, you will receive at maturity $1,000 plus a return equal to the absolute index return, which will reflect a 1% positive return for each 1% negative return on the underlying index, subject to an effective limit of 20%. Because you will not receive a positive return if the underlying index has depreciated below the trigger level, your maximum downside payment will be $1,200.00 per $1,000.00 stated principal amount Trigger PLUS. |
| § | The Trigger PLUS are subject to the credit risks of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co., and any actual or anticipated changes to our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s credit ratings or credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the Trigger PLUS. Investors are dependent on our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s ability to pay all amounts due on the Trigger PLUS. Any actual or anticipated decline in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s credit ratings or increase in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s credit spreads determined by the market for taking that credit risk is likely to adversely affect the market value of the Trigger PLUS. If we and JPMorgan Chase & Co. were to default on our payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the Trigger PLUS and you could lose your entire investment. |
| § | 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 Trigger PLUS. If these affiliates do not make payments to us and we fail to make payments on the Trigger PLUS, 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 benefit provided by the trigger level may terminate on the valuation date. If the final index value is less than the trigger level, the benefit provided by the trigger level will terminate and you will be fully exposed to any depreciation of the underlying index. |
| § | Secondary trading may be limited. The Trigger PLUS will not be listed on a securities exchange. There may be little or no secondary market for the Trigger PLUS. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not |

JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC
Dual Directional Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the S&P 500® Index due September 3, 2026

Principal at Risk Securities
provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the Trigger PLUS easily. JPMS may act as a market maker for the Trigger PLUS but is not required to do so. Because we do not expect that other market makers will participate significantly in the secondary market for the Trigger PLUS, the price at which you may be able to trade your Trigger PLUS is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which JPMS is willing to buy the Trigger PLUS. If at any time JPMS or another agent does not act as a market maker, it is likely that there would be little or no secondary market for the Trigger PLUS.
| § | The tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS are uncertain. There is no direct legal authority as to the proper U.S. federal income tax characterization of the Trigger PLUS, and we do not intend to request a ruling from the IRS. The IRS might not accept, and a court might not uphold, the treatment of the Trigger PLUS described in “Additional Information about the Trigger PLUS ― Additional Provisions ― Tax considerations” in this document and in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement. If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the Trigger PLUS, the timing and character of any income or loss on the Trigger PLUS could differ materially and adversely from our description herein. 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; the relevance of factors such as the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” regime, which very generally can operate to recharacterize certain long-term capital gain as ordinary income and impose a notional interest charge. 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 and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS, possibly with retroactive effect. You should review carefully the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement and consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS, including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by this notice. |
Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest
| § | Economic interests of the issuer, the guarantor, the calculation agent, the agent of the offering of the Trigger PLUS and other affiliates of the issuer may be different from those of investors. We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the Trigger PLUS, including acting as calculation agent and as an agent of the offering of the Trigger PLUS, hedging our obligations under the Trigger PLUS and making the assumptions used to determine the pricing of the Trigger PLUS and the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS, which we refer to as the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS. In performing these duties, our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s economic interests and the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the Trigger PLUS. The calculation agent has determined the initial index value and the trigger level, will determine the final index value and will calculate the amount of payment you will receive at maturity, if any. Determinations made by the calculation agent, including with respect to the occurrence or non-occurrence of market disruption events, the selection of a successor to the underlying index or calculation of the final index value in the event of a discontinuation or material change in method of calculation of the underlying index, may affect the payment to you at maturity. |
In addition, our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s business activities, including hedging and trading activities, could cause our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s economic interests to be adverse to yours and could adversely affect any payment on the Trigger PLUS and the value of the Trigger PLUS. It is possible that hedging or trading activities of ours or our affiliates in connection with the Trigger PLUS could result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value of the Trigger PLUS declines. Please refer to “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest” in the accompanying product supplement for additional information about these risks.
| § | Hedging and trading activities by the issuer and its affiliates could potentially affect the value of the Trigger PLUS. The hedging or trading activities of the issuer’s affiliates and of any other hedging counterparty with respect to the Trigger PLUS on or prior to the pricing date and prior to maturity could have adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, the value of the underlying index and, as a |

Principal at Risk Securities
result, could decrease the amount an investor may receive on the Trigger PLUS at maturity, if any. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to the pricing date could have affected the initial index value and the trigger level and, therefore, could potentially increase the level that the final index value must reach before you receive a payment at maturity that exceeds the issue price of the Trigger PLUS or so that you do not suffer a loss on your initial investment in the Trigger PLUS. Additionally, these hedging or trading activities during the term of the Trigger PLUS, including on the valuation date, could adversely affect the final index value and, accordingly, the payment to you at maturity, if any. It is possible that these hedging or trading activities could result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value of the Trigger PLUS declines.
Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Trigger PLUS
| § | The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS is lower than the original issue price (price to public) of the Trigger PLUS. The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS is only an estimate determined by reference to several factors. The original issue price of the Trigger PLUS exceeds the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS because costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the Trigger PLUS are included in the original issue price of the Trigger PLUS. These costs include the selling commissions, the structuring fee, the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the Trigger PLUS and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the Trigger PLUS. See “Additional Information about the Trigger PLUS — The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS” in this document. |
| § | The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS does not represent future values of the Trigger PLUS and may differ from others’ estimates. The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS is determined by reference to internal pricing models of our affiliates. This estimated value of the Trigger PLUS is based on market conditions and other relevant factors existing at the time of pricing and assumptions about market parameters, which can include volatility, dividend rates, interest rates and other factors. Different pricing models and assumptions could provide valuations for the Trigger PLUS that are greater than or less than the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS. 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 Trigger PLUS 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 Trigger PLUS from you in secondary market transactions. See “Additional Information about the Trigger PLUS — The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS” in this document. |
| § | The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS is derived by reference to an internal funding rate. The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS 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 Trigger PLUS as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability management costs of the Trigger PLUS 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 Trigger PLUS. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential changes to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the Trigger PLUS and any secondary market prices of the Trigger PLUS. See “Additional Information about the Trigger PLUS — The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS” in this document. |
| § | The value of the Trigger PLUS as published by JPMS (and which may be reflected on customer account statements) may be higher than the then-current estimated value of the Trigger PLUS for a limited time period. We generally expect that some of the costs included in the original issue price of the Trigger PLUS will be partially paid back to you in connection with any repurchases of your Trigger PLUS by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period. These costs can include selling commissions, the structuring fee, projected hedging profits, if any, and, in some circumstances, estimated hedging costs and our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances. See “Additional Information about the Trigger PLUS — Secondary market prices of the Trigger PLUS” in this document for additional information relating to this initial period. Accordingly, the estimated value of |

JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC
Dual Directional Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the S&P 500® Index due September 3, 2026
Trigger Performance Leveraged Upside SecuritiesSM
Principal at Risk Securities
your Trigger PLUS during this initial period may be lower than the value of the Trigger PLUS as published by JPMS (and which may be shown on your customer account statements).
| § | Secondary market prices of the Trigger PLUS will likely be lower than the original issue price of the Trigger PLUS. Any secondary market prices of the Trigger PLUS will likely be lower than the original issue price of the Trigger PLUS 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, the structuring fee, projected hedging profits, if any, and estimated hedging costs that are included in the original issue price of the Trigger PLUS. As a result, the price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to buy Trigger PLUS 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. See the immediately following risk factor for information about additional factors that will impact any secondary market prices of the Trigger PLUS. |
The Trigger PLUS are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your Trigger PLUS to maturity. See “— Risks Relating to the Trigger PLUS Generally — Secondary trading may be limited” above.
| § | Secondary market prices of the Trigger PLUS will be impacted by many economic and market factors. The secondary market price of the Trigger PLUS 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, structuring fee, projected hedging profits, if any, estimated hedging costs and the closing level of the underlying index, including: |
| o | any actual or potential change in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s creditworthiness or credit spreads; |
| o | customary bid-ask spreads for similarly sized trades; |
| o | our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances; |
| o | the actual and expected volatility of the underlying index; |
| o | the time to maturity of the Trigger PLUS; |
| o | the dividend rates on the equity securities included in the underlying index; |
| o | interest and yield rates in the market generally; and |
| o | a variety of other economic, financial, political, regulatory and judicial events. |
Additionally, independent pricing vendors and/or third party broker-dealers may publish a price for the Trigger PLUS, which may also be reflected on customer account statements.

Additional Information about the Trigger PLUS
Please read this information in conjunction with the terms on the front cover of this document.
| Additional Provisions: | |
| Postponement of maturity date: | If the scheduled maturity date is not a business day, then the maturity date will be the following business day. If the scheduled valuation date is not a trading day or if a market disruption event occurs on that day so that the valuation date is postponed and falls less than three business days prior to the scheduled maturity date, the maturity date of the Trigger PLUS will be postponed to the third business day following the valuation date as postponed. |
| Minimum ticketing size: | $1,000 / 1 Trigger PLUS |
| Trustee: | Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (formerly Bankers Trust Company) |
| Calculation agent: | JPMS |
| The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS: |
The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS set forth on the cover of this document 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 Trigger PLUS, valued using the internal funding rate described below, and (2) the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the Trigger PLUS. The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS does not represent a minimum price at which JPMS would be willing to buy your Trigger PLUS in any secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS 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 Trigger PLUS as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability management costs of the Trigger PLUS 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 Trigger PLUS. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential changes to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the Trigger PLUS and any secondary market prices of the Trigger PLUS. For additional information, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Trigger PLUS — The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS is derived by reference to an internal funding rate” in this document. The value of the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the Trigger PLUS 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 Trigger PLUS on the pricing date is based on market conditions and other relevant factors and assumptions existing at that time. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Trigger PLUS — The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS does not represent future values of the Trigger PLUS and may differ from others’ estimates” in this document. The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS is lower than the original issue price of the Trigger PLUS because costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the Trigger PLUS are included in the original issue price of the Trigger PLUS. These costs include the selling commissions paid to JPMS and other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, the structuring fee, the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the Trigger PLUS and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the Trigger PLUS. 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 Trigger PLUS 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 “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Trigger PLUS — The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS is lower than the original issue price (price to public) of the Trigger PLUS” in this document. |

| Secondary market prices of the Trigger PLUS: | For information about factors that will impact any secondary market prices of the Trigger PLUS, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Trigger PLUS — Secondary market prices of the Trigger PLUS will be impacted by many economic and market factors” in this document. In addition, we generally expect that some of the costs included in the original issue price of the Trigger PLUS will be partially paid back to you in connection with any repurchases of your Trigger PLUS by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period that is intended to be the shorter of two years and one-half of the stated term of the Trigger PLUS. The length of any such initial period reflects the structure of the Trigger PLUS, whether our affiliates expect to earn a profit in connection with our hedging activities, the estimated costs of hedging the Trigger PLUS and when these costs are incurred, as determined by our affiliates. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Trigger PLUS — The value of the Trigger PLUS as published by JPMS (and which may be reflected on customer account statements) may be higher than the then-current estimated value of the Trigger PLUS for a limited time period.” |
| Tax considerations: |
You should review carefully the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement no. 4-I. The following discussion, when read in combination with that section, constitutes the full opinion of our special tax counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, regarding the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of the Trigger PLUS. Based on current market conditions, in the opinion of our special tax counsel, your Trigger PLUS should be treated as “open transactions” that are not debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as more fully described in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders — Notes Treated as Open Transactions That Are Not Debt Instruments” in the accompanying product supplement. Assuming this treatment is respected, the gain or loss on your Trigger PLUS should be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if you hold your Trigger PLUS for more than a year, whether or not you are an initial purchaser of Trigger PLUS at the issue price. However, the IRS or a court may not respect this treatment of the Trigger PLUS, in which case the timing and character of any income or loss on the Trigger PLUS could be materially and adversely 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; the relevance of factors such as the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” regime, which very generally can operate to recharacterize certain long-term capital gain as ordinary income and impose a notional interest charge. 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 and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS, possibly with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS, including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by this notice. 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 Trigger PLUS with regard to Non-U.S. Holders. |
| Supplemental use of proceeds and hedging: | The Trigger PLUS are offered to meet investor demand for products that reflect the risk-return profile and market exposure provided by the Trigger PLUS. See “How the Trigger PLUS Work” in this document for an illustration of the risk-return profile of the Trigger PLUS and “S&P 500® Index Overview” in this document for a description of the market exposure |

provided by the Trigger PLUS. The original issue price of the Trigger PLUS is equal to the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS plus the selling commissions paid to JPMS and other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers and the structuring fee, plus (minus) the projected profits (losses) that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the Trigger PLUS, plus the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the Trigger PLUS. | |
| Benefit plan investor considerations: | See “Benefit Plan Investor Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement. |
| Supplemental plan of distribution: |
Subject to regulatory constraints, JPMS intends to use its reasonable efforts to offer to purchase the Trigger PLUS in the secondary market, but is not required to do so. JPMS, acting as agent for JPMorgan Financial, will pay all of the selling commissions it receives from us to Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. In addition, Morgan Stanley Wealth Management will receive a structuring fee as set forth on the cover of this document for each Trigger PLUS. We or our affiliate may enter into swap agreements or related hedge transactions with one of our other affiliates or unaffiliated counterparties in connection with the sale of the Trigger PLUS and JPMS and/or an affiliate may earn additional income as a result of payments pursuant to the swap or related hedge transactions. See “— Supplemental use of proceeds and hedging” above and “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying product supplement. Canada The Trigger PLUS may be sold only to purchasers purchasing, or deemed to be purchasing, as principal that are accredited investors, as defined in National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions (“NI 45-106”) or subsection 73.3(1) of the Securities Act (Ontario) (the “OSA”), and are permitted clients, as defined in National Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements, Exemptions and Ongoing Registrant Obligations (“NI-33-103”). Accordingly, by placing a purchase order for Trigger PLUS, each purchaser of Trigger PLUS in Canada will be deemed to have represented to the issuer, the guarantor and each agent and dealer participating in the sale of the Trigger PLUS that such purchaser: · is an “accredited investor” as defined in section 1.1 of NI 45-106 or subsection 73.3(1) of the OSA and is either purchasing the Trigger PLUS as principal for its own account, or is deemed to be purchasing the Trigger PLUS as principal by applicable law; · is a “permitted client” as defined in section 1.1 of NI 31-103 and, in particular, if the purchaser is an individual, he or she beneficially owns financial assets (as defined in section 1.1 of NI 45-106) having an aggregate realizable value that, before taxes but net of any related liabilities, exceeds CAD $5,000,000; · is not a company or other entity created or being used solely to purchase or hold Trigger PLUS as an “accredited investor”; and · is not an “insider” of the issuer or the guarantor and is not registered as a dealer, adviser or otherwise under the securities laws of any province or territory of Canada. The Trigger PLUS are being distributed in Canada on a private placement basis only and therefore any resale of the Trigger PLUS must be made in accordance with an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the prospectus requirements of applicable securities laws. Each of the issuer and the guarantor is not a reporting issuer in any province or territory in Canada and the Trigger PLUS are not listed on any stock exchange in Canada and there is currently no public market for the Trigger PLUS in Canada. Each of the issuer and the guarantor currently has no intention of becoming a reporting issuer in Canada, filing a prospectus with any securities regulatory authority in Canada to qualify the resale of the Trigger PLUS to the public, or listing its Trigger PLUS on any stock exchange in Canada. Canadian purchasers are advised to seek legal advice prior to any resale of the Trigger PLUS. Securities legislation in certain provinces or territories of Canada may provide a purchaser with remedies for rescission or damages if this document (including any amendment thereto) contains a misrepresentation, provided that the remedies for rescission or damages are exercised by the purchaser within the time limit prescribed by the securities legislation of the purchaser’s province or territory. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the purchaser’s province or territory for particulars of these rights or consult with a legal advisor. |
