General
|
●
|
|
The notes are designed for investors who seek a Contingent Interest Payment if, (1) with respect to the first Review Date, the closing price of one share of
each Reference Stock or, (2) with respect to the final Review Date, the Final Stock Price of each Reference Stock is greater than or equal to 60% of its Initial Stock Price, which we refer to as an Interest Barrier. Investors should be
willing to forgo fixed interest and dividend payments, in exchange for the opportunity to receive Contingent Interest Payments.
|
|
●
|
|
Investors in the notes should be willing to accept the risk of losing some or all of their principal if a Trigger Event (as defined below) has occurred and the
risk that no Contingent Interest Payment may be made with respect to some or all Review Dates. Contingent Interest Payments should not be viewed as periodic interest payments.
|
|
●
|
|
If the closing price of one share of each Reference Stock is greater than or equal to its Interest Barrier on the final Review Date, investors will receive, in
addition to the Contingent Interest Payment with respect to that Review Date, any previously unpaid Contingent Interest Payments for the first Review Date.
|
|
●
|
|
The notes will be automatically called if the closing price of one share of each Reference Stock on the first Review Date is greater than or equal to its Initial
Stock Price. The earliest date on which an automatic call may be initiated, is May 11, 2017.
|
|
●
|
|
The notes 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.
Any payment on the notes is subject to the credit risk of JPMorgan Financial, as issuer of the notes, and the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase & Co., as guarantor of the
notes.
|
|
●
|
|
The payment at maturity is
not
linked to a basket of the Reference Stocks. The payment at maturity is linked to the performance of each of the
Reference Stocks individually, as described below.

|
●
|
|
Minimum denominations of $10,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof

What Are the Payments on the Notes, Assuming a Range of Performances for the Lesser Performing
Reference Stock?
If the notes have not been automatically called and, (1) with respect to the first Review Date, the closing price of one share
of each Reference Stock or, (2) with respect to the final Review Date, the Final Stock Price of each Reference Stock is greater than or equal to its Interest Barrier, you will receive on the applicable Interest Payment Date for each $1,000
principal amount note a Contingent Interest Payment equal to $62.50. If, (1) with respect to the first Review Date, the closing price of one share of either Reference Stock or, (2) with respect to the final Review Date, the Final Stock
Price of either Reference Stock is less than its Interest Barrier, no Contingent Interest Payment will be made with respect to that Review Date. We refer to the Interest Payment Date immediately following any Review Date on which the closing price
of one share of either Reference Stock or Final Stock Price of either Reference Stock, as applicable, is less than its Interest Barrier as a No-Coupon Date. The following table reflects the Contingent Interest Payment of $62.50 per
$1,000 principal amount note and illustrates the hypothetical total Contingent Interest Payments per $1,000 principal amount note over the term of the notes depending on how many No-Coupon Dates occur.

The following table illustrates the hypothetical payments on the notes in different hypothetical scenarios.
Each hypothetical
payment set forth below assumes that the Lesser Performing Reference Stock are the American depositary shares of Banco Santander, S.A. and that the closing price of the other Reference Stock on each Review Date is greater than or equal to its
Initial Stock Price (and, therefore, its Interest Barrier and Trigger Level). We make no representation or warranty as to which of the Reference Stocks will be the Lesser Performing Reference Stock for purposes of calculating your actual payment at
maturity, if any, or as to what the closing price of one share of either Reference Stock will be on any Review Date.
In addition, the following table and examples assume an Initial Stock Price for the Lesser Performing Reference Stock of $4.70,
and an Interest Barrier and a Trigger Level for the Lesser Performing Reference Stock of $2.82 (equal to 60% of the hypothetical Initial Stock Price) and reflects the Contingent Interest Payment of $62.50. Each hypothetical payment set forth below
is for illustrative purposes only and may not be the actual payment applicable to a purchaser of the notes. The numbers appearing in the following table and examples have been rounded for ease of analysis.

Review Date. The applicable amount shown in the table above does not include any previously unpaid Contingent Interest Payment that may be payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date.
(3) A Trigger Event occurs if the Final Stock Price of either Reference Stock (
i.e.,
the arithmetic average of the closing prices
of one share of either Reference Stock on the Ending Averaging Dates) is less than its Trigger Level.
Hypothetical Examples of
Amounts Payable on the Notes
The following examples illustrate how payments on the notes in different hypothetical scenarios are calculated.
Example 1: The price of one share of the Lesser Performing Reference Stock increases from its Initial Stock Price of $4.70 to a closing level of
$5.64 on the first Review Date.
Because the closing price of one share of the Lesser Performing Reference Stock on the first Review Date is greater than its Interest Barrier, the investor is entitled to receive a Contingent Interest Payment in
connection with the that Review Date. In addition, because the closing price of one share of the Lesser Performing Reference Stock on the first Review Date is greater than its Initial Stock Price, the notes are automatically called. Accordingly, the
investor receives a payment of $1,062.50 per $1,000 principal amount note on the relevant Call Settlement Date, consisting of a Contingent Interest Payment of $62.50 per $1,000 principal amount note and repayment of principal equal to $1,000 per
$1,000 principal amount note.
Example 2: The notes are not automatically called prior to maturity, a Contingent Interest Payment is paid in
connection with the first Review Date and the price of one share of the Lesser Performing Reference Stock increases from its Initial Stock Price of $4.70 to an Final Stock Price of $5.64 A Trigger Event has not occurred.
The investor
receives a payment of $62.50 per $1,000 principal amount note in connection with the first Review Date. Because the notes are not automatically called prior to maturity and a Trigger Event has not occurred, the investor receives at maturity a
payment of $1,062.50 per $1,000 principal amount note. This payment consists of a Contingent Interest Payment of $62.50 per $1,000 principal amount note and repayment of principal equal to $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount note. The total
amount paid on the notes over the term of the notes is $1,125 per $1,000 principal amount note.
This represents the maximum total payment an investor may receive over the term of the notes.
Example 3: The notes are not automatically called prior to maturity, a Contingent Interest Payment is not paid in connection with the first Review Date and the
price of one share of the Lesser Performing Reference Stock decreases from its Initial Stock Price of $4.70 to a Final Stock Price of $2.82 A Trigger Event has not occurred.
Because the notes are not automatically called prior to
maturity and a Trigger Event has not occurred, even though the Final Stock Price of the Lesser Performing Reference Stock is less than its Initial Stock Price, the investor receives at maturity a payment of $1,125 per $1,000 principal amount
note. This payment consists of Contingent Interest Payments of $125 per $1,000 principal amount note (reflecting the Contingent Interest Payment for the final Review Date and the unpaid Contingent Interest Payment for the first Review Date) and
repayment of principal equal to $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount note. The total amount paid on the notes over the term of the notes is $1,125 per $1,000 principal amount note.
This represents the maximum total payment an investor
may receive over the term of the notes
.
Example 4: The notes are not automatically called prior to maturity, a Contingent Interest Payment is
paid in connection with the first Review Date and the price of one share of the Lesser Performing Reference Stock decreases from its Initial Stock Price of $4.70 to a Final Stock Price of $1.88 A Trigger Event has occurred.
The investor
receives a payment of $62.50 per $1,000 principal amount note in connection with the first Review Date. Because the notes are not automatically called prior to maturity and a Trigger Event has occurred, the investor receives at maturity of $400 per
$1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × -60%) = $400
The total value of the payments on the notes over the term of the notes is $462.50 per $1,000 principal amount note.
Example 5: The notes are not automatically called prior to maturity, no Contingent Interest Payment is paid in connection with the first Review Date and the
price of one share of the Lesser Performing Reference Stock decreases from its Initial Stock Price of $4.70 to a Final Stock Price of $1.41 A Trigger Event has occurred.
Because the notes are not automatically called prior to maturity, no
Contingent Interest Payment is paid in connection with the first Review Date and a Trigger Event has occurred, the investor receives no payments over the term of the notes, other than a payment at maturity of $300 per $1,000 principal amount note,
calculated as follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × -70%) = $300
The hypothetical payments on the notes shown above apply
only if you hold the notes for their entire term or until automatically called.
These hypotheticals do not reflect fees or expenses that would be
associated with any sale in the secondary market. If these fees and expenses were included, the hypothetical payments shown above would likely be lower.

Selected Purchase Considerations

|
|
CONTINGENT INTEREST PAYMENTS
The notes offer the potential to earn a Contingent Interest Payment in connection with each Review Date of $62.50 per
$1,000 principal amount note. If the notes have not been automatically called and, (1) with respect to the first Review Date, the closing price of one share of each Reference Stock or, (2) with respect to the final Review Date, the Final
Stock Price of each Reference Stock is greater than or equal to its Interest Barrier, you will receive on the applicable Interest Payment Date a Contingent Interest Payment for that Review Date
plus
, with respect to the final Review Date, any
previously unpaid Contingent Interest Payments for the first Review Date. If, (1) with respect to the first Review Date, the closing price of one share of either Reference Stock or, (2) with respect to the final Review Date, the Final
Stock Price of either Reference Stock is less than its Contingent Interest Barrier, no Contingent Interest Payment will be made with respect to that Review Date. You will not receive any unpaid Contingent Interest Payment if the Final Stock Price of
either Reference Stock on the final Review Date is less than its Interest Barrier. If the closing price of one share of either Reference Stock or the Final Stock Price of either Reference Stock on the final Review Date is less than its Interest
Barrier, you will not receive any Contingent Interest Payments over the term of the notes. If payable, a Contingent Interest Payment will be made to the holders of record at the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the
applicable Interest Payment Date.
Because the notes are our unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, the payment of which is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., payment of any amount on the notes is subject to
our ability to pay our obligations as they become due and JPMorgan Chase & Co.s ability to pay its obligations as they become due.
|
|
●
|
|
POTENTIAL EARLY EXIT AS A RESULT OF THE AUTOMATIC CALL FEATURE
If the closing price of one share of each Reference Stock on the first Review Date
is greater than or equal to its Initial Stock Price, your notes will be automatically called prior to the Maturity Date. Under these circumstances, you will receive a cash payment, for each $1,000 principal amount note, equal to (a) $1,000
plus
(b) the Contingent Interest Payment applicable to that Review Date, payable on the Call Settlement Date. Even in cases where the notes are called before maturity, you are not entitled to any fees and commissions described on the
front cover of this pricing supplement.
|
|
●
|
|
THE NOTES DO NOT GUARANTEE THE RETURN OF YOUR PRINCIPAL IF THE NOTES HAVE NOT BEEN AUTOMATICALLY CALLED
If the notes have not been automatically
called, we will pay you your principal back at maturity only if a Trigger Event has not occurred.
However, if the notes have not been automatically called and a Trigger Event has occurred, you will lose some or all of the principal amount of your
notes at maturity.
|
|
●
|
|
EXPOSURE TO EACH OF THE REFERENCE STOCKS
The return on the notes is linked to the Lesser Performing Reference Stock, which will be one of the two
Reference Stocks. See Key Terms Relating to the Reference Stocks and The Reference Stocks in this pricing supplement for more information.

TAX TREATMENT
You should review carefully the section entitled Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences in the accompanying
product supplement no. 4-I. In determining our reporting responsibilities we intend to treat (i) the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid forward contracts with associated contingent coupons and (ii) any Contingent
Interest Payments as ordinary income, as described in the section entitled Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders Notes Treated as Prepaid Forward Contracts with Associated Contingent
Coupons in the accompanying product supplement. Based on the advice of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, our special tax counsel, we believe that this is a reasonable treatment, but that there are other reasonable treatments that the IRS or
a court may adopt, in which case the timing and character of any income or loss on the notes could be materially affected. In addition, in 2007 Treasury and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of
prepaid forward contracts and similar instruments. The notice focuses in particular on whether to require investors in these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related
topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments and the relevance of factors such as the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked. While the notice requests comments on appropriate
transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially affect the tax consequences of an investment in the notes, possibly with retroactive effect. 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.
|
Non-U.S. Holders Tax Considerations
. The U.S. federal income tax treatment of Contingent Interest Payments is uncertain, and although
we believe it is reasonable to take a position that Contingent Interest Payments are not subject to U.S. withholding tax (at least if an applicable Form W-8 is provided), a withholding agent may nonetheless withhold on these payments (generally at a
rate of 30%, subject to the possible reduction of that rate under an applicable income tax treaty), unless income from your notes is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if an applicable treaty so
requires, attributable to a permanent establishment in the United States). If you are not a United States person, you are urged to consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the notes in light of
your particular circumstances.
FATCA.
Withholding under legislation commonly referred to as FATCA could apply to
payments with respect to the notes that are treated as U.S.-source fixed or determinable annual or periodical income (FDAP Income) for U.S. federal income tax purposes (such as interest, if the notes are recharacterized, in
whole or in part, as debt instruments, or Contingent Interest Payments if they are otherwise treated as FDAP Income). Under a recent IRS notice, withholding under FATCA will not apply to payments of gross proceeds (other than any amount treated as
FDAP Income) of a taxable disposition, including an early redemption or redemption at maturity, of the notes. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application of FATCA to the notes.
In the event of any withholding on the notes, we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts so withheld.

Selected Risk Considerations
An investment in the notes involves significant risks. Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the Reference Stock. These risks are explained in more detail in the Risk Factors
sections of the accompanying product supplement.
|
●
|
|
YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS
The notes do not guarantee any return of principal. If the notes have not been
automatically called and a Trigger Event has occurred, you will lose 1% of the principal amount of your notes at maturity for every 1% that the Final Stock Price of the Lesser Performing Reference Stock is less than its Initial Stock Price. Under
these circumstances, you will lose more than 40.00% of your principal amount at maturity and could lose all of the principal amount of your notes at maturity.
|
|
●
|
|
THE NOTES DO NOT GUARANTEE THE PAYMENT OF INTEREST AND MAY NOT PAY ANY INTEREST AT ALL
The terms of the notes differ from those of conventional
debt securities in that, among other things, whether we pay interest is linked to the performance of the Reference Stock. Contingent Interest Payments should not be viewed as periodic interest payments. If the notes have not been automatically
called and if, (1) with respect to the first Review Date, the closing price of one share of each Reference Stock or, (2) with respect to the final Review Date, the Final Stock Price of each Reference Stock is greater than or equal to its
Interest Barrier, we will make a Contingent Interest Payment with respect to that Review Date (and will pay you any previously unpaid Contingent Interest Payment for the first Review Date). If, (1) with respect to the first Review Date, the
closing price of one share of either Reference Stock or, (2) with respect to the final Review Date, the Final Stock Price of either Reference Stock is less than its Contingent Interest Barrier, no Contingent Interest Payment will be made with
respect to that Review Date. You will not receive any unpaid Contingent Interest Payment if the Final Stock Price of either Reference Stock on the final Review Date is less than its Interest Barrier. Accordingly, if, (1) with respect to the
first Review Date, the closing price of one share of either Reference Stock or, (2) with respect to the final Review Date, the Final Stock Price of either Reference Stock is less than its Interest Barrier, you will not receive any Contingent
Interest Payments over the term of the notes.
|
|
●
|
|
CREDIT RISKS OF JPMORGAN FINANCIAL AND JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
The notes are subject to our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.s credit
risks, and our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.s credit ratings and credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the notes. 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. Aside from the initial capital contribution from JPMorgan Chase & Co., substantially all of our assets relate to obligations
of our affiliates to make payments under loans made by us or other intercompany agreements. As a result, we are dependent upon payments from our affiliates to meet our obligations under the notes. If these affiliates do not make payments to us and
we fail to make payments on the notes, you may have to seek payment under the related guarantee by JPMorgan Chase & Co., and that guarantee will rank pari passu with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of JPMorgan
Chase & Co.
|
|
●
|
|
THE AUTOMATIC CALL FEATURE MAY FORCE A POTENTIAL EARLY EXIT
If the notes are automatically called, the amount of Contingent Interest Payments made
on the notes may be less than the amount of Contingent Interest Payments that might have been payable if the notes were held to maturity, and, for each $1,000 principal amount note, you will receive on the Call Settlement Date $1,000
plus
the
Contingent Interest Payment applicable to the relevant Review Date.
|
|
●
|
|
REINVESTMENT RISK
If your notes are automatically called, the term of the notes may be reduced to as short as approximately six months and you will
not receive any Contingent Interest Payments after the Call Settlement Date. There is no guarantee that you would be able to reinvest the proceeds from an investment in the notes at a comparable return and/or with a comparable interest rate for a
similar level of risk in the event the notes are automatically called prior to the Maturity Date.
|
|
●
|
|
THE APPRECIATION POTENTIAL OF THE NOTES IS LIMITED, AND YOU WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN ANY APPRECIATION OF EITHER REFERENCE STOCK
The appreciation
potential of the notes is limited to the sum of any Contingent Interest Payments that may be paid over the term of the notes, regardless of any appreciation of either Reference Stock, which may be significant. You will not participate in any
appreciation of either Reference Stock. Accordingly, the return on the notes may be significantly less than the return on a direct investment in either Reference Stock during the term of the notes.
|
|
●
|
|
POTENTIAL CONFLICTS
We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the notes, including acting as calculation
agent and as an agent of the offering of the notes, hedging our obligations under the notes and making the assumptions used to determine the pricing of the notes and the estimated value of the notes when the terms of the notes are set, which we
refer to as the estimated value of the notes. 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 notes. 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 notes and the value of 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 for additional information about these risks.
|
We and/or our
affiliates may also currently or from time to time engage in business with the Reference Stock issuers, including extending loans to, or making equity investments in, those issuers or providing advisory services to those issuers. In addition,
one or more of our affiliates may publish research reports or otherwise express opinions with respect to the Reference Stock issuers, and these reports may or may not recommend that investors buy or hold the Reference Stocks. As a prospective
purchaser of the notes, you should undertake an independent investigation of the Reference Stock issuers that in your judgment is appropriate to make an informed decision with respect to an investment in the notes.
|
●
|
|
YOU ARE EXPOSED TO THE RISK OF DECLINE IN THE CLOSING PRICE OF ONE SHARE OF EACH REFERENCE STOCK
Your return on the notes and your payment at
maturity, if any, is not linked to a basket consisting of the Reference Stocks. If the notes have not been automatically called, your payment at maturity is contingent upon the performance of each individual Reference Stock such that you will be
equally exposed to the risks related to either of the Reference Stocks. Poor performance by either of the Reference Stocks over the term of the notes may negatively affect whether you will receive a Contingent Interest Payment on any Interest
Payment Date and your payment at maturity and will not be offset or mitigated by positive performance by the other Reference Stock. Accordingly, your investment is subject to the risk of decline in the closing price of one share of each Reference
Stock.
|
|
●
|
|
YOUR PAYMENT AT MATURITY MAY BE DETERMINED BY THE LESSER PERFORMING REFERENCE STOCK
Because the payment at maturity will be determined based on the
performance of the Lesser Performing Reference Stock, you will not benefit from the performance of the other Reference Stock. Accordingly, if the notes have not been automatically called and a Trigger Event has occurred, you will lose some or all of
your principal amount at maturity, even if the Final Stock Price of the other Reference Stock is greater than or equal to its Initial Stock Price.
|
|
●
|
|
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
The estimated value of
the notes is determined by reference to internal pricing models of our affiliates when the terms of the notes are set. This estimated value of the notes is based on market conditions and other relevant factors existing at that time 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 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. 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 is 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-rate debt of JPMorgan Chase & Co. 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. These costs can include projected hedging profits, if any, and, in some circumstances, estimated hedging costs and our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances.
See Secondary Market Prices of the Notes in this pricing supplement for additional information relating to this initial period. Accordingly, the estimated value of your notes during this initial period may be lower than the value of the
notes as published by JPMS (and which may be shown on your customer account statements).
|
|
●
|
|
SECONDARY MARKET PRICES OF THE NOTES WILL LIKELY BE LOWER THAN THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE OF THE NOTES
Any secondary market prices of the notes will
likely be lower than the original issue price of the notes because, among other things, secondary market prices take into account our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances and, also, because secondary market prices
(a) exclude selling commissions and (b) may exclude 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 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. See the immediately following risk consideration for information about additional factors that will impact any secondary market prices of the 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. See Lack of Liquidity below.
|
●
|
|
SECONDARY MARKET PRICES OF THE NOTES WILL BE IMPACTED BY MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS
The secondary market price of the notes during their term
will be impacted by a number of economic and market factors, which may either offset or magnify each other, aside from the selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, estimated hedging costs and the price of one share of each Reference
Stock, including:
|
|
●
|
|
any actual or potential change in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.s creditworthiness or credit spreads;
|
|
●
|
|
customary bid-ask spreads for similarly sized trades;
|
|
●
|
|
our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances;
|
|
●
|
|
the actual and expected volatility of the Reference Stocks;
|
|
●
|
|
the time to maturity of the notes;
|
|
●
|
|
whether the closing price of one share of either Reference Stock or the Final Stock Price of either Reference Stock, as applicable, has been, or is expected to
be, less than its Interest Barrier on any Review Date and whether a Trigger Event is expected to occur;
|
|
●
|
|
the likelihood of an automatic call being triggered;
|
|
●
|
|
the dividend rates on the Reference Stocks;
|
|
●
|
|
interest and yield rates in the market generally;
|
|
●
|
|
the exchange rate and the volatility of the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the European Union euro and the correlation between that rate and the
prices of the Reference Stocks;
|
|
●
|
|
the occurrence of certain events affecting the issuer of a Reference Stock that may or may not require an adjustment to the Stock Adjustment Factor for that
Reference Stock, including a merger or acquisition; and
|
|
●
|
|
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 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.
|
●
|
|
NO OWNERSHIP OR DIVIDEND RIGHTS IN THE REFERENCE STOCKS
As a holder of the notes, you will not have any ownership interest or rights in either of
the Reference Stocks, such as voting rights or dividend payments. In addition, the issuers of the Reference Stocks will not have any obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the notes in taking any corporate action that might affect the
value of the Reference Stocks and the notes.
|
|
●
|
|
NO AFFILIATION WITH THE REFERENCE STOCK ISSUERS
We are not affiliated with the issuers of the Reference Stocks. We have not independently verified
any of the information about the Reference Stock issuers contained in this pricing supplement. You should undertake your own investigation into the Reference Stocks and their issuers. We are not responsible for the Reference Stock issuers
public disclosure of information, whether contained in SEC filings or otherwise.

THERE ARE IMPORTANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES OF BANCO SANTANDER AND BBVA AND THE RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF THE
CAPITAL STOCK OF BANCO SANTANDER AND THE ORDINARY SHARES OF BBVA, RESPECTIVELY
You should be aware that your return on the notes is linked to the price of each of the American depositary shares (ADSs) of Banco Santander and
the ADSs of BBVA and not the shares of capital stock of Banco Santander or the ordinary shares of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A., as applicable. There are important differences between the rights of holders of ADSs and the rights of holders
of the capital stock or ordinary shares, as applicable. Each ADS is a security evidenced by American depositary receipts that represents one share of capital stock of Banco Santander or one ordinary share of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A., as
applicable. The ADSs are issued pursuant to a deposit agreement, which sets forth the rights and responsibilities of the ADS depositaries, Banco Santander and Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A., and holders of the ADSs, which may be different
from the rights of holders of the shares of capital stock of Banco Santander, S.A. or the ordinary shares of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. For example, either of the ADS depositaries may make distributions in respect of the shares of capital
stock or ordinary shares, as applicable, that are not passed on to the holders of its ADSs. Any such differences between the rights of holders of the ADSs and the rights of holders of the shares of capital stock or ordinary shares may be significant
and may materially and adversely affect the value of the ADSs and, as a result, the notes.
|
|
●
|
|
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH NON-U.S. SECURITIES
An investment in notes linked to the value of ADSs representing interests in the shares of capital stock
of Banco Santander or the ordinary shares of BBVA, which are each issued by a Spanish issuer, involves risks associated with the home country of Banco Santander and BBVA. The prices of non-U.S. equity securities may be affected by political,
economic, financial and social factors in the home country of the issuer of the non-U.S. equity securities (
i.e.
, Spain), including changes in that countrys government, economic and fiscal policies, currency exchange laws or other laws
or restrictions. Moreover, the economy of that country may differ favorably or unfavorably from the economy of the United States in such respects as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources and
self-sufficiency. The issuers home country may be subjected to different and, in some cases, more adverse economic environments.

CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE RISK
Because the ADSs of Banco Santander and BBVA are quoted and traded in U.S. dollars on the New York Stock Exchange and
the shares of capital stock of Banco Santander and the ordinary shares of BBVA are quoted and traded in European Union euros on the Spanish stock exchanges in Madrid, Bilbao, Barcelona and Valencia (the Spanish Stock Exchanges, fluctuations in
the exchange rate between the European Union euro and the U.S. dollar will likely affect the relative value of the ADSs and capital stock of Banco Santander and the relative value of the ADSs and the ordinary shares of BBVA, in each case in the two
currencies and, as a result, will likely affect the market price of the ADSs of Banco Santander and BBVA trading on the New York Stock Exchange. These trading differences and currency exchange rates may affect the market value of the notes and
whether the closing price of one share of either Reference Stock will fall below the Interest Barrier on the first Review Date or whether the Final Stock Price of either Reference Stock will fall below the Trigger Level. The European Union euro has
been subject to fluctuations against the U.S. dollar in the past and may be subject to significant fluctuations in the future. Previous fluctuations or periods of relative stability in the exchange rate between the European Union euro and the U.S.
dollar is not necessarily indicative of fluctuations or periods of relative stability in those rates that may occur over the term of the notes. The exchange rate between the European Union euro and the U.S. dollar is the result of the supply of, and
the demand for, those currencies. Changes in the exchange rates result over time from the interaction of many factors directly or indirectly affecting economic and political conditions in Spain and the United States, including economic and political
developments in other countries. Of particular importance are rates of inflation, interest rate levels, the balance of payments, any political, civil or military unrest and the extent of governmental surpluses or deficits in Spain and the United
States, all of which are in turn sensitive to the monetary, fiscal and trade policies pursued by Spain and the United States and other jurisdictions important to international trade and finance.
|
|
●
|
|
VOLATILITY RISK
Greater expected volatility with respect to a Reference Stock indicates a greater likelihood as of the Pricing Date that the
Reference Stock could close below its Initial Stock Price by more than the Contingent Buffer Amount on one or more Ending Averaging Dates. A Reference Stocks volatility, however, can change significantly over the term of the notes. The closing
price of one share of a Reference Stock could fall sharply at any time during the term of the notes, which could result in a significant loss of principal.
|
|
●
|
|
LACK OF LIQUIDITY
The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. JPMS intends to offer to purchase the notes in the secondary market but
is not required to do so. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the notes easily. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the notes, 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.
|
|
●
|
|
THE ANTI-DILUTION PROTECTION FOR THE REFERENCE STOCK IS LIMITED AND MAY BE DISCRETIONARY
The calculation agent will make adjustments to the Stock
Adjustment Factor for certain corporate events affecting the Reference Stock. However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment in response to all events that could affect the Reference Stock. 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. You should also be aware that the calculation agent may make adjustments in response to events that are not described in the accompanying
product supplement to account for any diluting or concentrative effect, but the calculation agent is under no obligation to do so or to consider your interests as a holder of the notes in making these determinations.

Public Information
All information contained herein on the Reference Stocks is derived from

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 is 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-rate debt of JPMorgan Chase & Co. For additional information,
see Selected Risk Considerations The Estimated Value of the Notes Is Derived by Reference to an Internal Funding Rate in this pricing supplement. The value of the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the
notes is derived from internal pricing models of our affiliates. These models are dependent on inputs such as the traded market prices of comparable derivative instruments and on various other inputs, some of which are market-observable, and which
can include volatility, dividend rates, interest rates and other factors, as well as assumptions about future market events and/or environments. Accordingly, the estimated value of the notes is determined when the terms of the notes are set based on
market conditions and other relevant factors and assumptions existing at that time. See Selected Risk Considerations The Estimated Value of the Notes Does Not Represent Future Values of the Notes and May Differ from Others
Estimates in this pricing supplement.
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. We or one or more of our affiliates will retain any profits realized in hedging our obligations under the notes. See Selected Risk Considerations The Estimated Value
of the Notes Is Lower Than the Original Issue Price (Price to Public) of the Notes in this pricing supplement.
Secondary Market
Prices of the Notes
For information about factors that will impact any secondary market prices of the notes, see Selected Risk Considerations
Secondary Market Prices of the Notes Will Be Impacted by Many Economic and Market Factors in this pricing 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 that is intended to be the shorter of six months and one-half of the stated term of the
notes. The length of any such initial period reflects the structure of the notes, whether our affiliates expect to earn a profit in connection with our hedging activities, the estimated costs of hedging the notes and when these costs are incurred,
as determined by our affiliates. See Selected Risk Considerations The Value of the Notes as Published by JPMS (and Which May Be Reflected on Customer Account Statements) May Be Higher Than the Then-Current Estimated Value of the Notes
for a Limited Time Period.
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 What Are the Payments on the Notes, Assuming a Range of
Performances for the Reference Stocks? and Hypothetical Examples of Amounts Payable on the Notes in this pricing supplement for an illustration of the risk-return profile of the notes and The Reference Stocks 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 executed and issued by JPMorgan Financial and authenticated by the trustee pursuant to the indenture, and 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 the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law on the conclusions expressed above. 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 trustees authorization, execution and delivery of the indenture
and its authentication of the notes 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, 2016, which was filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement on Form S-3 by JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. on February 24, 2016.
