Hypothetical Payout Profile
The following table and graph illustrate the hypothetical total
return and payment at maturity on the notes linked to two
hypothetical Indices. 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 Lesser Performing Index of
100.00; |
|
· |
a Contingent Digital Return of 63.00%; and |
|
· |
a Barrier Amount for the Lesser Performing Index of 75.00
(equal to 75.00% of its hypothetical Initial Value). |
The hypothetical Initial Value of the Lesser Performing Index of
100.00 has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and does not
represent the actual Initial Value of either Index. The actual
Initial Value of each Index is the closing level of that Index on
the Pricing Date and is specified under “Key Terms — Initial Value”
in this pricing supplement. For historical data regarding the
actual closing levels of each Index, please see the historical
information set forth under “The Indices” 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 sub-set of Lesser Performing Index
Returns detailed in the table above (-100% to 100%). There can be
no assurance that the performance of the Lesser Performing Index
will result in the return of any of your principal amount.

How the Notes Work
Upside Scenario:
If the Final Value of each Index is greater than or equal to its
Initial Value, investors will receive at maturity the $1,000
principal amount plus a return equal to the greater of (a)
the Contingent Digital Return of 63.00% and (b) the Lesser
Performing Index Return.
|
· |
If the closing level of the Lesser Performing Index increases
10.00%, investors will receive at maturity a 63.00% return, or
$1,630.00 per $1,000 principal amount note. |
|
· |
If the closing level of the Lesser Performing Index increases
65.00%, investors will receive at maturity a 65.00% return, or
$1,650.00 per $1,000 principal amount note. |
Par Scenario:
If the Final Value of either Index is less than its Initial Value
but the Final Value of each Index is greater than or equal to its
Barrier Amount of 75.00% of its Initial Value, investors will
receive at maturity the principal amount of their notes.
Downside Scenario:
If the Final Value of either Index is less than its Barrier Amount
of 75.00% of its Initial Value, investors will lose 1% of the
principal amount of their notes for every 1% that the Final Value
of the Lesser Performing Index is less than its Initial Value.
|
· |
For example, if the closing level of the Lesser Performing
Index 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, product supplement and
underlying supplement.
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 either Index 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 Lesser Performing Index is less than its Initial
Value. Accordingly, under these circumstances, you will lose more
than 25.00% of your principal amount at maturity and could lose all
of your principal amount at maturity.
|
· |
YOUR ABILITY TO RECEIVE THE CONTINGENT DIGITAL RETURN MAY
TERMINATE ON THE OBSERVATION DATE — |
If the Final Value of either Index is less than its Initial Value,
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. 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.
|
· |
YOU ARE EXPOSED TO THE RISK OF DECLINE IN THE LEVEL OF EACH
INDEX — |
Payments on the notes are not linked to a basket composed of the
Indices and are contingent upon the performance of each individual
Index. Poor performance by either of the Indices over the term of
the notes may negatively affect your payment at maturity and will
not be offset or mitigated by positive performance by the other
Index.
|
· |
YOUR PAYMENT AT MATURITY WILL BE DETERMINED BY THE LESSER
PERFORMING INDEX. |
|
· |
THE BENEFIT PROVIDED BY THE BARRIER AMOUNT MAY TERMINATE ON
THE OBSERVATION DATE — |
If the Final Value of either Index 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 Lesser Performing
Index.
|
· |
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 THOSE
SECURITIES. |
|
· |
THE RISK OF THE CLOSING LEVEL OF AN INDEX FALLING BELOW ITS
BARRIER AMOUNT IS GREATER IF THE LEVEL OF THAT INDEX IS
VOLATILE. |
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
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.
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 structuring and hedging the notes are included in the original
issue price of the notes. These costs include the structuring fee,
the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates expect to
realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations
under the notes and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations
under the notes. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this
pricing supplement.
|
· |
THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES DOES NOT REPRESENT FUTURE
VALUES OF THE NOTES AND MAY DIFFER FROM OTHERS’ ESTIMATES
— |
See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing
supplement.
|
· |
THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES IS DERIVED BY REFERENCE TO
AN INTERNAL FUNDING RATE — |
The internal funding rate used in the determination of the
estimated value of the notes may differ from the market-implied
funding rate for vanilla fixed income instruments of a similar
maturity issued by JPMorgan Chase & Co. or its
affiliates. Any difference may be based on, among other things, our
and our affiliates’ view of the funding value of the notes as well
as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability
management costs of the notes in comparison to those costs for the
conventional fixed income instruments of JPMorgan
Chase & Co. This internal funding rate is based on
certain market inputs and assumptions, which may prove to be
incorrect, and is intended to approximate the prevailing market
replacement funding rate for the notes. The use of an internal
funding rate and any potential changes to that rate may have an
adverse effect on the terms of the notes and any secondary market
prices of the notes. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this
pricing supplement.
|
· |
THE VALUE OF THE NOTES AS PUBLISHED BY JPMS (AND WHICH MAY
BE REFLECTED ON CUSTOMER ACCOUNT STATEMENTS) MAY BE HIGHER THAN THE
THEN-CURRENT ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES FOR A LIMITED TIME PERIOD
— |
We generally expect that some of the costs included in the original
issue price of the notes will be partially paid back to you in
connection with any repurchases of your notes by JPMS in an amount
that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period. See
“Secondary Market Prices of the Notes” in this pricing supplement
for additional information relating to this initial period.
Accordingly, the estimated value of your notes during this initial
period may be lower than the value of the notes as published by
JPMS (and which may be shown on your customer account
statements).
|
· |
SECONDARY MARKET PRICES OF THE NOTES WILL LIKELY BE LOWER
THAN THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE OF THE NOTES — |
Any secondary market prices of the notes will likely be lower than
the original issue price of the notes because, among other things,
secondary market prices take into account our internal secondary
market funding rates for structured debt issuances and, also,
because secondary market prices (a) exclude the structuring fee 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 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 structuring
fee, projected hedging profits, if any, estimated hedging costs and
the levels of the Indices. 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

JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. IS CURRENTLY ONE OF THE

but JPMorgan Chase & Co. will not have any obligation
to consider your interests in taking any corporate action that
might affect the level of the Dow Jones Industrial
AverageTM.
|
· |
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.

Tax Treatment
You should review carefully
the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax
Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement no. 4-II. 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 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,
2025 that do not have a delta of one with respect to underlying
securities that could pay U.S.-source dividends for U.S. federal
income tax purposes (each an “Underlying Security”). Based on
certain determinations made by us, our special tax counsel is of
the opinion that Section 871(m) should not apply to the notes with
regard to Non-U.S. Holders. Our determination is not binding
on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this determination.
Section 871(m) is complex and its application may depend on your
particular circumstances, including whether you enter into other
transactions with respect to an Underlying Security. You
should consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application
of Section 871(m) to the notes.
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 structuring and
hedging the notes are included in the original issue price of the
notes. These costs include the structuring fee paid to 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 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 Indices” 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 structuring fee paid to 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.
Supplemental Plan of Distribution
We expect that delivery of the notes will be made against payment
for the notes on or about the Original Issue Date set forth on the
front cover of this pricing supplement, which will be the third
business day following the Pricing Date of the notes (this
settlement cycle being referred to as “T+3”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the
secondary market generally are required to settle in two business
days, unless the parties to that trade expressly agree otherwise.
Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on any date prior
to two business days before delivery will be required to specify an
alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent
a failed settlement and should consult their own advisors.
Supplemental Information About the Form of the Notes
The notes will initially be represented by a type of global
security that we refer to as a master note. A master note
represents multiple securities that may be issued at different
times and that may have different terms. The trustee and/or
paying agent will, in accordance with instructions from us, make
appropriate entries or notations in its records relating to the
master note representing the notes to indicate that the master note
evidences the notes.
