QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

The following is a brief Q&A that will help explain the Proposal, including the reasons for the Proposal. A more detailed discussion of the Proposal is in the proxy statement that follows this Q&A. Shareholders should read the entire proxy statement carefully.

A.  Shareholders of each Fund are being asked to vote on the Proposal to change the Fund from a "diversified company" to a "non-diversified company" by eliminating the related fundamental investment policy. Because the investment policy is "fundamental," shareholder approval is required to eliminate it. Approval of the Proposal will be determined for each Fund separately, solely by the voting results of shareholders of that Fund.

A.  Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), a "diversified company" must have at least 75% of the value of its total assets represented by cash and cash items (including receivables), U.S. government securities, securities of other investment companies, and other securities limited in respect of any one issuer to an amount not greater than 5% of the company's total assets and not more than 10% of any class of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer. In effect, the aggregated total of single-issuer positions of 5% or more cannot exceed 25% of a fund's assets. In contrast, the 1940 Act defines a "non-diversified company" as a fund other than a diversified company, and places no single-issuer limits on the fund due to that classification.

A.  Yes. The Board of Trustees of each Trust has reviewed and approved the Proposal. The Board of Trustees of each Trust, including all of the Independent Trustees (i.e., Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Funds as defined in the 1940 Act), determined that, for each Fund, the Proposal is in the best interests of the Fund.

The Board of Trustees of each Trust unanimously recommends that shareholders vote "FOR" the Proposal.

A.  Each Fund is currently classified as a diversified company and has a related fundamental investment policy on diversification. As a result, each Fund is limited in its ownership of securities of single issuers. In contrast to the Funds, each Fund's benchmark index, the S&P 500 Index, is not limited by the 1940 Act diversification requirement. Over the past several years, certain stocks of technology-related issuers contained in the S&P 500 Index have experienced significant increases in their market capitalizations. As a result, this index has become much more concentrated at the individual stock level. This level of index concentration coupled with the limitations placed on a diversified company can, at times, constrain a Fund's ability to fully achieve target exposures to individual securities and limits its ability to invest above 5% in certain issuers, and forces each Fund's portfolio to be underweight at least some of the top holdings in its benchmark, even if the Fund's portfolio management team finds them to be attractive investment opportunities. This limitation can ultimately inhibit the opportunity for the Fund to implement its principal investment strategy and can hinder its ability to outperform its benchmark or non-diversified peer funds with otherwise similar investment strategies, on a risk-return basis. Shareholder approval of the Proposal would allow each Fund to operate as a non-diversified company, which would provide each Fund's portfolio management team with additional investment flexibility and the potential to enhance the Fund's performance.

A.  While approval of the Proposal would provide each Fund's portfolio management team with greater long-term flexibility in executing its investment strategy by allowing increased exposures to certain holdings, and may allow for the potential for greater risk, it is not otherwise expected to affect the way the Funds are currently

managed. The investment objective and investment strategies for each Fund will not change due to approval of the Proposal and the portfolio management teams currently intend to manage each Fund using the substantially similar risk and volatility guidelines it has used managing such Fund while they have been classified as diversified. In addition, while each Fund's fundamental investment policy on diversification would be eliminated, all other fundamental investment policies will remain unchanged.

A.  If shareholders do not approve this Proposal for a Fund, it will remain a diversified company and retain its current fundamental investment policy on diversification.

A.  In the event that the necessary quorum to transact business is not obtained by the date of the Meeting or the Proposal does not receive sufficient votes for approval, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies. In the event of an adjournment within 60 days from the date of the Meeting, no further notice would be provided other than an announcement at the Meeting to be adjourned. The persons named as proxies would vote upon such adjournment(s) after consideration of the best interests of all shareholders.

A.  As a shareholder of JPMorgan U.S. Research Enhanced Equity Fund or JPMorgan U.S. Research Enhanced Large Cap ETF, you are entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value, and a proportionate fractional vote for any remainder of net asset value, represented by such shareholder's shares as of the Record Date. The Record Date is [March 26], 2026.

A.  Voting is quick and easy. You can vote in any of four ways: by telephone, via the Internet, by returning the Proxy Card by mail, or by participating in the Meeting. We encourage you to vote by telephone or via the Internet, which will reduce the time and costs associated with this proxy solicitation.

If you have any questions after reviewing the proxy materials, please call the proxy solicitor, Sodali & Co Fund Solutions, at 1-888-394-3290. Representatives are available to assist you Monday through Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., Eastern Time. We will get you the answers that you need promptly.

PROPOSAL

TO CHANGE JPMORGAN U.S. RESEARCH ENHANCED EQUITY FUND AND JPMORGAN U.S. RESEARCH ENHANCED LARGE CAP ETF FROM A DIVERSIFIED COMPANY TO A NON-DIVERSIFIED COMPANY BY ELIMINATING THE RELATED FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT POLICY

The Meeting is being held to act on the proposal ("Proposal") for each Fund to change the Fund from a diversified company to a non-diversified company by eliminating the related fundamental investment policy, as shown in the following table:

Because the above investment policies are fundamental, shareholder approval is required to eliminate them.

The Board of Trustees of each Trust has reviewed and approved the Proposal for each Fund. The Board of Trustees of each Trust, including all of the Independent Trustees (i.e., Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Funds as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act")), determined that, for each Fund, the Proposal is in the best interests of the Fund. The Board of Trustees of each Trust unanimously recommends that shareholders vote "FOR" the Proposal for each Fund.

Section 5(b)(1) of the 1940 Act, a federal statute regulating the operations of mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, requires funds to be classified as either a "diversified company" or "non-diversified company" and such classification is considered a fundamental investment policy, meaning that it cannot be changed or eliminated without shareholder approval. A "diversified company," pursuant to Section 5(b)(1) of the 1940 Act must have 75% of the value of its total assets represented by cash and cash items (including receivables), U.S. government securities, securities of other investment companies, and other securities limited in respect of any one issuer to an amount not greater than 5% of the company's total assets and not more than 10% of any class of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer. In effect, the aggregated total of single-issuer positions of 5% or more cannot exceed 25% of each Fund's assets. In contrast, a "non-diversified company" does not have this limitation under the 1940 Act and therefore can invest a greater percentage of its assets in fewer issuers.

Although each Fund is an actively managed fund, and not an index fund, it is expected that each Fund will invest in the top holdings of the Fund's benchmark index. The Fund's portfolio management team may underweight or overweight such holdings relative to the index based on its evaluation of those companies. The diversification status of each Fund limits its ability to invest above 5% in certain issuers and forces each Fund's portfolio to be underweight at least some of the top holdings in its benchmark index, even if the Fund's portfolio management team finds them to be attractive investment opportunities. As a result, a Fund's portfolio management team may be prohibited from being equal to or overweight relative to the Fund's benchmark index in these top holdings.

The benchmark index for each Fund is listed in the following table:

In contrast to the Funds, the benchmark index is not limited by the 1940 Act diversification requirement. Over the past several years, certain stocks of technology-related issuers contained in the S&P 500 Index have experienced significant increases in their market capitalizations. As a result, the S&P 500 Index has become

much more concentrated at the individual stock level. For example, as of December 31, 2025, 26.39% of the S&P 500 Index was represented by four stocks that have a greater than 5% weight. This level of index concentration coupled with the limitations placed on a diversified company can, at times, constrain a Fund's ability to fully achieve target exposures to individual securities.

In selecting investments for each Fund, J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. ("JPMIM" or the "Adviser") considers the stocks in each Fund's benchmark index as potential investments, in accordance with the Fund's principal investment strategy. Due to the 1940 Act diversification requirement, at various times, the Funds must underweight at least some of these holdings relative to their weights in their benchmark index even if the Adviser finds them to be attractive investment opportunities. The diversification status forces each Fund to be underweight its benchmark's top holdings, meaning the Adviser cannot choose to equal or overweight positions relative to a Fund's benchmark even if, in accordance with the Fund's investment objective and principal investment strategy, the Adviser determines that they represent the best available investment opportunity. This limitation can ultimately inhibit the opportunity for the Fund to implement its principal investment strategy and can hinder its ability to outperform its benchmark or non-diversified peer funds with otherwise similar investment strategies, on a risk-return basis. The Adviser believes reclassifying each Fund as a non-diversified company is in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders because the non-diversified status will provide the Adviser with additional investment flexibility and the potential to enhance the Fund's performance.

While approval of the Proposal would provide the Adviser with greater long-term flexibility in executing each Fund's investment strategy by allowing increased exposures to certain holdings, it is not otherwise expected to affect the way the Funds are currently managed. The investment objective and investment strategies for each Fund will not change due to approval of the Proposal. In addition, while each Fund's fundamental investment policy on diversification would be eliminated, all other fundamental investment policies will remain unchanged.

The 1940 Act diversification requirements are separate and apart from the diversification requirements that each Fund complies with in order to qualify for special tax treatment as set forth in Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. This Proposal does not in any way affect a Fund's intent to comply with the diversification requirements of Subchapter M. As a non-diversified company, the percentage of a Fund's assets invested in any single issuer would not be limited by the 1940 Act, but would remain subject to Subchapter M's broader diversification requirements.

Investing a larger percentage of a Fund's assets in any one issuer could increase the Fund's risk of loss and make its share price more volatile because the value of its shares would be more susceptible to adverse events affecting that issuer. If the Adviser takes a larger position in an issuer that subsequently has an adverse return, a Fund may have a greater loss than it would have had if the Adviser had diversified the Fund's investments consistent with Section 5(b)(1) of the 1940 Act. While the change to a non-diversified company classification may allow for the potential for greater risk taking by a Fund, the portfolio management team currently intends to manage the Fund's using the substantially similar risk and volatility guidelines it has used managing the Fund while it has been classified as a diversified company.

If shareholders approve the Proposal, each Fund may operate as a non-diversified company or, in the Adviser's discretion, it may not, subject to the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. However, if a Fund does not operate as a non-diversified company for three consecutive years following shareholder approval, the 1940 Act rules will require the Fund to be automatically re-classified as a diversified company. This would require a Fund again to seek shareholder approval to operate as a non-diversified company.

At a meeting held on March 12, 2026, the Equity Committee of the Board of Trustees, on behalf of the Board for each Trust, unanimously approved the submission of this Proposal to shareholders for their approval.

Administrator

JPMIM, 270 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10017, serves as administrator for the Trusts.

VOTING INFORMATION

Shareholders Entitled to Vote

You are entitled to vote at the Meeting, including any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, if you owned shares of any Fund at the close of business on the Record Date of [March 26], 2026.

Quorum

For each Fund, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of record of one-third of the outstanding shares of the Fund entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum at the Meeting for acting on the Proposal.

Voting Requirement

Shareholders of each Fund will vote separately on the proposal for their respective Fund. For each Fund, approval of the Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of its outstanding voting securities as of the Record Date, within the meaning of the 1940 Act. This means the affirmative vote of the lesser of: (a) 67% or more of the shares present at the meeting or represented by proxy if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund are present or represented by proxy or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. The approval of the Proposal by one Fund is not contingent on the approval of the other Fund.

How Votes will be Counted

Each shareholder of each Fund is entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value, and a proportionate fractional vote for any remainder of net asset value, represented by such shareholder's shares as of the Record Date. Executed Proxy Cards marked as "withhold" votes will be treated as shares that are present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Meeting. "Withhold" votes will be treated as votes against the Proposal. Treating "withhold" votes as votes against the Proposal can have the effect of causing shareholders who choose not to participate in the proxy vote to prevail over shareholders who cast votes or provide voting instructions to their brokers or nominees. Each Fund may request that selected brokers or nominees return proxies on behalf of shares for which voting instructions have not been received if doing so is necessary to obtain a quorum. "Withhold" votes will not be voted "FOR" or "AGAINST" any adjournment.

If a Proxy Card is properly executed and returned in time to be voted at the Meeting, the proxies named on the card will vote the shares represented by the proxy in accordance with the instructions marked on the card. Unmarked but properly executed Proxy Cards will be voted FOR the Proposal. If you simply sign, date and return the Proxy Card, but do not specify a vote, your proxy will be voted FOR the Proposal.

How to Vote

Any shareholder of a Fund on the Record Date can vote in any of four ways: by telephone, via the Internet, by returning the Proxy Card by mail, or by participating in the Meeting.

Please follow the instructions on your Proxy Card.

Revoking a Proxy or Changing a Vote

Shares represented by proxies, unless previously revoked, will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions of the shareholders. To revoke a proxy, the shareholder giving such proxy must either (1) submit to the Trust a subsequently dated Proxy Card, (2) deliver to the applicable Trust a written notice of revocation, or (3) otherwise give notice of revocation in open Meeting, in all cases prior to the exercise of the authority granted in the proxy.

Adjournment

In the event that the necessary quorum to transact business is not obtained by the date of the Meeting, or, in the event that the Proposal does not receive sufficient votes for approval, whether or not a quorum is present, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies. Any such adjournment will require an affirmative vote by the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting. In determining whether to adjourn the Meeting, the following factors may be considered: the percentage of votes actually cast, the percentage of negative votes actually cast, the nature of any further solicitation and the information to be provided to shareholders with respect to the reasons for the solicitation. In addition, if, in the judgment of persons named as proxies, it is advisable to defer action on the Proposal, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting for a reasonable period or periods. In the event of an adjournment, no further notice is needed other than an announcement at the Meeting to be adjourned if the adjourned meeting is held within 60 days from the date of the Meeting. For purposes of calculating a vote to adjourn the Meeting, any broker non-votes received will be excluded from the calculation of the number of votes required to approve any proposal to adjourn a meeting. The persons named as proxies will vote upon such adjournment after consideration of the best interests of all shareholders.

Broker "Non-Votes"

For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for transacting business at the Meeting, executed proxies marked as broker "non-votes" (that is, proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote shares on a particular matter with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power) will be treated as shares that are present for quorum purposes but which have not been voted. Accordingly, broker non-votes will effectively be a vote against the Proposal, for which the required vote is a majority of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote on the matter. As described above in the section entitled "Adjournments," broker non-votes will have no effect on votes to adjourn the Meeting.

Method of Solicitation

Proxies are being solicited by mail. Additional solicitations may be made by telephone, e-mail, or other personal contact by officers or employees of JPMIM and their affiliates or by proxy soliciting firms retained by the Funds. The Funds have retained Sodali & Co Fund Solutions ("Sodali"), a proxy solicitor, to assist in the solicitation of proxies primarily by contacting shareholders by mail. By contract with JPMIM, Sodali will be, among other things: (i) required to maintain the confidentiality of all shareholder information; (ii) prohibited from selling or otherwise disclosing to any third party shareholder information; and (iii) required to comply with applicable state telemarketing laws. The cost of retaining such proxy solicitor will be deemed an expense relating to the Meeting. In addition, JPMIM may reimburse persons holding shares in their names or in the names of their nominees for expenses incurred in forwarding solicitation material to their beneficial owners. The aggregate costs of the

Meeting, including the costs of preparing, assembling, mailing and transmitting proxy materials and of soliciting proxies on behalf of the Board, are estimated not to exceed $[350,000]. JPMorgan U.S. Research Enhanced Equity Fund is subject to a contractual expense limitation; as a result, the proxy expenses will be borne by JPMIM for JPMorgan U.S. Research Enhanced Equity Fund if the Fund's operating expenses (including proxy expenses) are above its expense limitation. As of the date of this proxy statement, JPMorgan U.S. Research Enhanced Equity Fund's gross operating expenses exceeded its expense limitation. JPMorgan U.S. Research Enhanced Large Cap ETF has a unitary fee structure in place. While costs of holding shareholder meetings are excluded from the Fund's unitary fee, JPMIM has determined to voluntarily assume proxy expenses for the JPMorgan U.S. Research Enhanced Large Cap ETF.

As the Meeting date approaches, shareholders of the Funds may receive a call from a representative of JPMIM or Sodali if the Funds have not yet received their vote. Authorization to permit JPMIM or Sodali to execute proxies may be obtained by telephonic or electronically transmitted instructions from Fund shareholders. Proxies that are obtained telephonically will be recorded in accordance with the procedures set forth below. Management of the Funds believes that these procedures are reasonably designed to ensure that the identity of the shareholder casting the vote is accurately determined and that the voting instructions of the shareholder are accurately determined. In all cases where a telephonic proxy is solicited, a JPMIM or Sodali representative is required to ask the shareholder for the shareholder's full name, address, and confirmation that the shareholder has received this Proxy Statement.

If the shareholder information solicited agrees with the information provided to JPMIM or Sodali by the Funds, the JPMIM or Sodali representative has the responsibility to explain the process, read the Proposal listed on the Proxy Card, and ask for the shareholder's instructions on the Proposal. The representative of JPMIM or Sodali, although permitted to answer questions about the process, is not permitted to recommend to the shareholder how to vote, other than to read any recommendation set forth in this Proxy Statement. Sodali will record the shareholder's instructions on the card. Within 72 hours, JPMIM or Sodali will send the shareholder a letter or mailgram to confirm the shareholder's vote and ask the shareholder to call JPMIM or Sodali immediately if the shareholder's instructions are not correctly reflected in the confirmation.

OTHER MATTERS

No Other Matters. We know of no business other than the Proposal contained in this Proxy Statement to be considered at the meeting. If, however, any other matters are properly brought before the Meeting, the persons named in the accompanying form of proxy will vote thereon in accordance with their judgment.

Shareholders Sharing the Same Address. As permitted by law, only one copy of this Proxy Statement may be delivered to shareholders residing at the same address, unless such shareholders have notified the applicable Trust of their desire to receive multiple copies of the shareholder reports and proxy statements that the Trust sends. If you would like to receive an additional copy, please contact the applicable Trust by writing to the Trust's address, or by calling the telephone number shown on the front page of this Proxy Statement. The Trust will then promptly deliver, upon request, a separate copy of this Proxy Statement to any shareholder residing at an address to which only one copy was mailed. Shareholders wishing to receive separate copies of a Fund's shareholder reports and proxy statements in the future, and shareholders sharing an address that wish to receive a single copy if they are receiving multiple copies, should also send a request as indicated.

Shareholder Proposals. Each Trust does not hold annual shareholder meetings. Any shareholder proposal intended to be presented at any future meeting of shareholders must be received by the Funds at their principal office a reasonable time before the solicitation of proxies for such meeting in order for such proposal to be considered for inclusion in the proxy statement relating to such meeting.

Shareholder Communications with Board. Shareholders wishing to send communications to the Board of Trustees or specific members of the Board should submit the communication in writing to the attention of the Secretary of the Trust, at 277 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10172, identifying the correspondence as intended for the Board of Trustees or for a specified member of the Board. The Secretary will maintain a copy of any such communication and promptly forward it to the Governance Committee no less frequently than monthly. The Governance Committee will periodically review such communications and determine how to respond, if at all. Other members of the Board will receive, no less frequently than quarterly, a summary of all shareholders communications received during the prior quarter, which summary shall identify the substance of such communications.
