Supplemental Terms of the Notes
The notes are not commodity futures contracts or swaps and are not regulated under the Commodity Exchange Act of 1936,
as amended (the "Commodity Exchange Act"). The notes are offered pursuant to an exemption from regulation under the
Commodity Exchange Act, commonly known as the hybrid instrument exemption, that is available to securities that have one or more
payments indexed to the value, level or rate of one or more commodities, as set out in section 2(f) of that statute. Accordingly, you are
not afforded any protection provided by the Commodity Exchange Act or any regulation promulgated by the Commodity Futures
Trading Commission.
Any values of the Underlyings, and any values derived therefrom, included in this pricing supplement may be corrected, in the event of
manifest error or inconsistency, by amendment of this pricing supplement and the corresponding terms of the notes. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the indenture governing the notes, that amendment will become effective without consent of the holders of
the notes or any other party.
Hypothetical Payout Profile
The following table and graph illustrate the hypothetical total return and payment at maturity on the notes linked to three hypothetical
Underlyings. The "total return" as used in this pricing supplement is the number, expressed as a percentage, that results from
comparing the payment at maturity per $1,000 principal amount note to $1,000. The hypothetical total returns and payments set forth
below assume the following:
• an Initial Value for the Least Performing Underlying of 100.00;
• a Contingent Digital Return of 29.50%;
• a Digital Barrier for the Least Performing Underlying of 80.00 (equal to 80.00% of its hypothetical Initial Value); and
• a Barrier Amount for the Least Performing Underlying of 70.00 (equal to 70.00% of its hypothetical Initial Value).
The hypothetical Initial Value of the Least Performing Underlying of 100.00 has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and does not
represent the actual Initial Value of any Underlying. The actual Initial Value of each Underlying is the closing value of that Underlying
on the Pricing Date and is specified under "Key Terms - Initial Value" in this pricing supplement. For historical data regarding the
actual closing values of each Underlying, please see the historical information set forth under "The Underlyings" in this pricing
supplement.
Each hypothetical total return or hypothetical payment at maturity set forth below is for illustrative purposes only and may not be the
actual total return or payment at maturity applicable to a purchaser of the notes. The numbers appearing in the following table and
graph have been rounded for ease of analysis.

The following graph demonstrates the hypothetical payments at maturity on the notes for a range of Least Performing Underlying
Returns. There can be no assurance that the performance of the Least Performing Underlying will result in the return of any of your
principal amount.
How the Notes Work
Upside Scenario:
If the Final Value of each Underlying is greater than or equal to its Digital Barrier of 80.00% of its Initial Value, investors will receive at
maturity the $1,000 principal amount plus a fixed return equal to the Contingent Digital Return of 29.50%, which reflects the maximum
return at maturity.
• If the closing value of the Least Performing Underlying increases 5.00%, investors will receive at maturity a return equal to 29.50%,
or $1,295.00 per $1,000 principal amount note.
• If the closing value of the Least Performing Underlying increases 50.00%, investors will receive at maturity a return equal to
29.50%, or $1,295.00 per $1,000 principal amount note.
• If the closing value of the Least Performing Underlying decreases 10.00%, investors will receive at maturity a return equal to
29.50%, or $1,295.00 per $1,000 principal amount note.
Par Scenario:
If the Final Value of any Underlying is less than its Digital Barrier of 80.00% of its Initial Value but the Final Value of each Underlying is
greater than or equal to its Barrier Amount of 70.00% of its Initial Value, investors will receive at maturity the principal amount of their
notes.
Downside Scenario:
If the Final Value of any Underlying is less than its Barrier Amount of 70.00% of its Initial Value, investors will lose 1% of the principal
amount of their notes for every 1% that the Final Value of the Least Performing Underlying is less than its Initial Value.
• For example, if the closing value of the Least Performing Underlying declines 60.00%, investors will lose 60.00% of their principal
amount and receive only $400.00 per $1,000 principal amount note at maturity.
The hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments on the notes shown above apply only if you hold the notes for their entire term.
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 and in Annex A to the accompanying prospectus addendum.
Risks Relating to the Notes Generally
• YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS -
The notes do not guarantee any return of principal. If the Final Value of any Underlying is less than its Barrier Amount, you will
lose 1% of the principal amount of your notes for every 1% that the Final Value of the Least Performing Underlying is less than its
Initial Value. Accordingly, under these circumstances, you will lose more than 30.00% of your principal amount at maturity and
could lose all of your principal amount at maturity.
• YOUR MAXIMUM GAIN ON THE NOTES IS LIMITED TO THE CONTINGENT DIGITAL RETURN,
regardless of any appreciation of any Underlying, which may be significant.
• YOUR ABILITY TO RECEIVE THE CONTINGENT DIGITAL RETURN MAY TERMINATE ON THE OBSERVATION DATE -
If the Final Value of any Underlying is less than its Digital Barrier, you will not be entitled to receive the Contingent Digital Return at
maturity.
• 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.
• 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 and the collection of intercompany obligations. Aside from the initial capital contribution from JPMorgan Chase &
Co., substantially all of our assets relate to obligations of JPMorgan Chase & Co. to make payments under loans made by us to
JPMorgan Chase & Co. or under other intercompany agreements. As a result, we are dependent upon payments from JPMorgan
Chase & Co. to meet our obligations under the notes. We are not a key operating subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. and in a
bankruptcy or resolution of JPMorgan Chase & Co. we are not expected to have sufficient resources to meet our obligations in
respect of the notes as they come due. If JPMorgan Chase & Co. does not make payments to us and we are unable 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. For more
information, see the accompanying prospectus addendum.
• YOU ARE EXPOSED TO THE RISK OF DECLINE IN THE VALUE OF EACH UNDERLYING -
Payments on the notes are not linked to a basket composed of the Underlyings and are contingent upon the performance of each
individual Underlying. Poor performance by any of the Underlyings over the term of the notes may negatively affect your payment
at maturity and will not be offset or mitigated by positive performance by any other Underlying.
• YOUR PAYMENT AT MATURITY WILL BE DETERMINED BY THE LEAST PERFORMING UNDERLYING.
• THE BENEFIT PROVIDED BY THE BARRIER AMOUNT MAY TERMINATE ON THE OBSERVATION DATE -
If the Final Value of any Underlying is less than its Barrier Amount, the benefit provided by the Barrier Amount will terminate and
you will be fully exposed to any depreciation of the Least Performing Underlying.
• THE NOTES DO NOT PAY INTEREST.
• YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE DIVIDENDS ON THE SECURITIES INCLUDED IN EITHER INDEX OR HAVE ANY RIGHTS WITH
RESPECT TO THE FUND OR THE SECURITIES OR COMMODITIES INCLUDED IN OR HELD BY ANY UNDERLYING.
• THE RISK OF THE CLOSING VALUE OF AN UNDERLYING FALLING BELOW ITS BARRIER AMOUNT IS GREATER IF THE
VALUE OF THAT UNDERLYING IS VOLATILE.
PS-5 | Structured Investments
Digital Barrier Notes Linked to the Least Performing of the SPDR® Gold
Trust, the Russell 2000® Index and the Nasdaq-100 Index®
• 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.
Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest
• 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.
In addition, the benchmark price of the Fund's Underlying Commodity (as defined under "The Underlyings" below) is administered
by the London Bullion Market Association ("LBMA") or an independent service provider appointed by the LBMA, and we are, or one
of our affiliates is, a price participant that contributes to the determination of that price. Furthermore, our affiliate is the custodian of
the Fund. We and our affiliates will have no obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the notes in taking any actions in
connection with our roles as a price participant and a custodian that might affect the Fund or the notes.
Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes
• 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,
PS-6 | Structured Investments
Digital Barrier Notes Linked to the Least Performing of the SPDR® Gold
Trust, the Russell 2000® Index and the Nasdaq-100 Index®
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 values of the Underlyings. 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.
Risks Relating to the Underlyings
• THE FUND IS NOT AN INVESTMENT COMPANY OR COMMODITY POOL AND WILL NOT BE SUBJECT TO REGULATION
UNDER THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940, AS AMENDED, OR THE COMMODITY EXCHANGE ACT -
Accordingly, you will not benefit from any regulatory protections afforded to persons who invest in regulated investment companies
or commodity pools.
• 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 COMMODITY AS WELL AS THE NET
ASSET VALUE PER SHARE -
The Fund does not fully replicate the performance of its Underlying Commodity (as defined under "The Underlyings" below) due to
the fees and expenses charged by the Fund or by restrictions on access to the Underlying Commodity due to other circumstances.
The Fund does not generate any income, and as the Fund regularly sells its Underlying Commodity to pay for ongoing expenses,
the amount of its Underlying Commodity represented by each share gradually declines over time. The Fund sells its Underlying
Commodity to pay expenses on an ongoing basis irrespective of whether the trading price of the shares rises or falls in response to
changes in the price of its Underlying Commodity. The sale by the Fund of its Underlying Commodity to pay expenses at a time of
low prices for its Underlying Commodity could adversely affect the value of the notes. Additionally, there is a risk that part or all of
the Fund's holdings in its Underlying Commodity could be lost, damaged or stolen. Access to the Fund's Underlying Commodity
could also be restricted by natural events (such as an earthquake) or human actions (such as a terrorist attack). All of these
factors may lead to a lack of correlation between the performance of the Fund and its Underlying Commodity. In addition, 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, the Fund's Underlying Commodity 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 Commodity 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.
• THE NOTES ARE SUBJECT TO RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH GOLD WITH RESPECT TO THE FUND -
The investment objective of the Fund is to reflect the performance of the price of gold bullion, less the expenses of the Fund's
operations. The price of gold is primarily affected by the global demand for and supply of gold. The market for gold bullion is
global, and gold prices are subject to volatile price movements over short periods of time and are affected by numerous factors,
including macroeconomic factors, such as the structure of and confidence in the global monetary system, expectations regarding
the future rate of inflation, the relative strength of, and confidence in, the U.S. dollar (the currency in which the price of gold is
usually quoted), interest rates, gold borrowing and lending rates and global or regional economic, financial, political, regulatory,
judicial or other events. Gold prices may be affected by industry factors, such as industrial and jewelry demand as well as lending,
sales and purchases of gold by the official sector, including central banks and other governmental agencies and multilateral
institutions that hold gold. Additionally, gold prices may be affected by levels of gold production, production costs and short-term
changes in supply and demand due to trading activities in the gold market. From time to time, above-ground inventories of gold
PS-7 | Structured Investments
Digital Barrier Notes Linked to the Least Performing of the SPDR® Gold
Trust, the Russell 2000® Index and the Nasdaq-100 Index®
may also influence the market. It is not possible to predict the aggregate effect of all or any combination of these factors. The
price of gold has recently been, and may continue to be, extremely volatile.
• THERE ARE RISKS RELATING TO COMMODITIES TRADING ON THE LBMA WITH RESPECT TO THE FUND -
The investment objective of the Fund is to reflect the performance of the price of gold bullion, less the expenses of the Fund's
operations. The price of gold is determined by the LBMA or an independent service provider appointed by the LBMA. The LBMA
is a self-regulatory association of bullion market participants. Although all market-making members of the LBMA are supervised by
the Bank of England and are required to satisfy a capital adequacy test, the LBMA itself is not a regulated entity. If the LBMA
should cease operations, or if bullion trading should become subject to a value added tax or other tax or any other form of
regulation currently not in place, the role of the LBMA gold price as a global benchmark for the value of gold may be adversely
affected. The LBMA is a principals' market, which operates in a manner more closely analogous to an over-the-counter physical
commodity market than regulated futures markets, and certain features of U.S. futures contracts are not present in the context of
LBMA trading. For example, there are no daily price limits on the LBMA which would otherwise restrict fluctuations in the prices of
LBMA contracts. In a declining market, it is possible that prices would continue to decline without limitation within a trading day or
over a period of trading days. The LBMA may alter, discontinue or suspend calculation or dissemination of the LBMA gold price,
which could adversely affect the value of the notes. The LBMA, or an independent service provider appointed by the LBMA, will
have no obligation to consider your interests in calculating or revising the LBMA gold price.
• SINGLE COMMODITY PRICES TEND TO BE MORE VOLATILE THAN, AND MAY NOT CORRELATE WITH, THE PRICES OF
COMMODITIES GENERALLY -
The Fund is linked to a single commodity and not to a diverse basket of commodities or a broad-based commodity index. The
Fund's Underlying Commodity may not correlate to the price of commodities generally and may diverge significantly from the prices
of commodities generally. As a result, the notes carry greater risk and may be more volatile than notes linked to the prices of more
commodities or a broad-based commodity index.
• 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.
• AN INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES IS SUBJECT TO RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH SMALL CAPITALIZATION STOCKS WITH
RESPECT TO THE RUSSELL 2000® INDEX -
Small capitalization companies may be less able to withstand adverse economic, market, trade and competitive conditions relative
to larger companies. Small capitalization companies are less likely to pay dividends on their stocks, and the presence of a
dividend payment could be a factor that limits downward stock price pressure under adverse market conditions.
• NON-U.S. SECURITIES RISK WITH RESPECT TO THE NASDAQ-100 INDEX® -
Some of the equity securities included in the Nasdaq-100 Index® 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 home countries of the issuers of
those non-U.S. equity securities.

Tax Treatment
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 notes.
Based on current market conditions, in the opinion of our special tax counsel it is reasonable to treat the notes 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 notes should be treated as long-term
capital gain or loss if you hold your notes for more than a year, whether or not you are an initial purchaser of notes at the issue price.
However, the IRS or a court may not respect this treatment, in which case the timing and character of any income or loss on the notes
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

Digital Barrier Notes Linked to the Least Performing of the SPDR® Gold
Trust, the Russell 2000® Index and the Nasdaq-100 Index®
consequences of an investment in the notes, possibly with retroactive effect. 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
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, 2027 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.
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 - Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and
Secondary Market Prices of the Notes - 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 - Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes - 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 - Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices
of the Notes - 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 "Hypothetical Payout Profile" and "How the Notes Work" in this pricing supplement for an illustration of the risk-return profile
of the notes and "The Underlyings" 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.
Validity of the Notes and the Guarantee
In the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, as special products counsel to JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co., when the
notes offered by this pricing supplement have been issued by JPMorgan Financial pursuant to the indenture, the trustee and/or paying
agent has made, in accordance with the instructions from JPMorgan Financial, the appropriate entries or notations in its records relating
to the master global note that represents such notes (the "master note"), and such notes have been delivered against payment as
contemplated herein, such notes will be valid and binding obligations of JPMorgan Financial and the related guarantee will constitute a
valid and binding obligation of JPMorgan Chase & Co., enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general
applicability (including, without limitation, concepts of good faith, fair dealing and the lack of bad faith), provided that such counsel
expresses no opinion as to (i) the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law on the
conclusions expressed above or (ii) any provision of the indenture that purports to avoid the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent
transfer or similar provision of applicable law by limiting the amount of JPMorgan Chase & Co.'s obligation under the related guarantee.
This opinion is given as of the date hereof and is limited to the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State
of Delaware and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act. In addition, this opinion is subject to customary assumptions about the
trustee's authorization, execution and delivery of the indenture and its authentication of the master note and the validity, binding nature
and enforceability of the indenture with respect to the trustee, all as stated in the letter of such counsel dated February 24, 2023, which
was filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 by JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. on February 24,
2023.
