Contingent Income Auto-Callable
Securities due May 20, 2020
All Payments on the
Securities Based on the Worse Performing of the Common Stock of Netflix, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Facebook, Inc.
Principal at Risk Securities
Fully and Unconditionally
Guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co.
Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities
do not guarantee the payment of interest or the repayment of principal. Instead, the securities offer the opportunity for
investors to earn a contingent quarterly payment equal to 3.50% of the stated principal amount with respect to each determination
date on which the closing price of each of the common stock of Netflix, Inc.,
and
the Class A common stock of Facebook,
Inc. is
greater than or equal to
its 65.00% of its initial stock price, which we refer to as a downside threshold level.
However, if, on any determination date, the closing price of
either
underlying stock is less than its downside threshold
level, you will not receive any contingent quarterly payment for the related quarterly period. In addition, if the closing
price of
each
underlying stock is greater than or equal to its initial stock price on any determination date (other than
the final determination date), the securities will be automatically redeemed for an amount per security equal to the stated principal
amount
plus
the contingent quarterly payment with respect to that determination date. If the securities have not
been automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the final stock price of
each
underlying stock is greater than or equal
to its downside threshold level, the payment at maturity due on the securities will be the stated principal amount and the contingent
quarterly payment with respect to the final determination date. If, however, the securities have not been automatically redeemed
prior to maturity and the final stock price of
either
underlying stock is less than its downside threshold level, you will
be exposed to the decline in the worse performing of the underlying stocks, as compared to its initial stock price, on a 1-to-1
basis and will receive a cash payment at maturity that is less than 65% of the stated principal amount of the securities and could
be zero. The securities are for investors who are willing to risk their principal and seek an opportunity to earn interest at
a potentially above-market rate in exchange for the risk of receiving few or no contingent quarterly payments and also the risk
of receiving a cash payment at maturity that is significantly less than the stated principal amount of the securities and could
be zero.
Accordingly, investors could lose their entire initial investment in the securities
. Because all payments
on the securities are based on the worse performing of the underlying stocks, a decline of either underlying stock below its downside
threshold level will result in few or no contingent quarterly payments and/or significant loss of your initial investment, even
if the other underlying stock appreciates or has not declined as much. Investors will not participate in any appreciation
of either underlying stock. The securities are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC,
which we refer to as JPMorgan Financial, the payment on which is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase &
Co., issued as part of JPMorgan Financial’s Medium-Term Notes, Series A, program.
Any payment on the securities is subject
to the credit risk of JPMorgan Financial, as issuer of the securities, and the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase & Co., as guarantor
of the securities.

Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due May 20, 2020
Based on the Worse Performing of the Common Stock of Netflix, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Facebook, Inc.
Investment Summary
The Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities
due May 20, 2020 Based on the Worse Performing of the Common Stock of Netflix, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Facebook, Inc.,
which we refer to as the securities, do not provide for the regular payment of interest. Instead, the securities provide an opportunity
for investors to earn a contingent quarterly payment, which is an amount equal to $0.35 (3.50% of the stated principal amount)
per security, with respect to each quarterly determination date on which the closing price of each underlying stock is greater
than or equal to 65% of its initial stock price, which we refer to as a downside threshold level. The contingent quarterly payment,
if any, will be payable quarterly on the contingent payment date immediately following the related determination date. However,
if the closing price of either underlying stock is less than its downside threshold level on any determination date, investors
will receive no contingent quarterly payment for the related quarterly period. It is possible that the closing price of one share
of one or both underlying stocks could be below their respective downside threshold levels on most or all of the determination
dates so that you will receive few or no contingent quarterly payments during the term of the securities. We refer to these payments
as contingent, because there is no guarantee that you will receive a payment on any contingent payment date. Even if both of the
underlying stocks were to be at or above their respective downside threshold levels on some quarterly determination dates, one
or both underlying stocks may fluctuate below their respective downside threshold level(s) on others.
If the closing price of each underlying
stock is greater than or equal to its initial closing value on any determination date (other than the final determination date),
the securities will be automatically redeemed for an early redemption payment equal to the stated principal amount
plus
the contingent quarterly payment with respect to the related determination date. If the securities have not previously been redeemed
and the final stock price of each underlying stock is greater than or equal to its downside threshold level, the payment at maturity
will be the sum of the stated principal amount and the contingent quarterly payment with respect to the final determination date.
However, if the securities have not previously been redeemed and the final stock price of either underlying stock is less than
its downside threshold level, investors will be exposed to the decline in the worse performing underlying stock, as compared to
its initial stock price, on a 1-to-1 basis. Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity will be (i) the stated principal
amount
times
(ii) the stock performance factor of the worse performing underlying stock, which will be less than 65% of
the stated principal amount of the securities and could be zero. Investors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk
of losing their entire principal and also the risk of receiving few or no contingent quarterly payments over the term of the securities.
In addition, investors will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying stocks.
Supplemental Terms of the Securities
For purposes of the accompanying product supplement, each
underlying stock is a “Reference Stock.”
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC
Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due May 20, 2020
Based on the Worse Performing of the Common Stock of Netflix, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Facebook, Inc.
Key Investment Rationale
The securities do not provide for the regular payment of interest.
Instead, the securities offer investors an opportunity to earn a contingent quarterly payment equal to 3.50% of the stated principal
amount with respect to each determination date on which the closing price of each underlying stock is
greater than or equal
to
65% of its initial stock price, which we refer to as a downside threshold level. The securities may be redeemed prior to
maturity for the stated principal amount per security
plus
the applicable contingent quarterly payment, and the payment
at maturity will vary depending on the final stock price of each underlying stock, as follows:
Scenario 1
|
This scenario assumes that, prior to early
redemption, each underlying stock closes at or above its downside threshold level on some determination dates but one or both of
the underlying stocks closes below their respective downside threshold levels on the others. On the 3
rd
determination
date, the closing price of each underlying stock is greater than or equal to its initial stock price.
Investors receive the contingent
quarterly payment for the quarterly periods in which the closing price of each underlying stock is at or above its downside threshold
level on the related determination date.
On the contingent payment
date immediately following the 3
rd
determination date, the securities will be automatically redeemed for the stated
principal amount
plus
the contingent quarterly payment with respect to the related determination date.
|
Scenario 2
|
This scenario assumes that each underlying
stock closes at or above its downside threshold level on some determination dates but one or both of the underlying stocks closes
below their respective downside threshold levels on the others, and each underlying stock closes below its initial stock price
on all the determination dates prior to the final determination date. On the final determination date, each underlying stock closes
at or above its downside threshold level.
Consequently, the securities
are not automatically redeemed, and investors receive a contingent quarterly payment for the quarterly periods in which the closing
price of each underlying stock is at or above its downside threshold level on the related determination date. At maturity, investors
will receive the stated principal amount and the contingent quarterly payment with respect to the final determination date.
|
Scenario 3
|
This scenario assumes that each underlying
stock closes at or above its downside threshold level on some determination dates but one or both of the underlying stocks closes
below their respective downside threshold levels on the others, and each underlying stock closes below its initial stock price
on all the determination dates prior to the final determination date. On the final determination date, one or both of the underlying
stocks close below their downside threshold levels.
Consequently, the securities are not automatically
redeemed, and investors receive a contingent quarterly payment for the quarterly periods in which the closing price of each underlying
stock is at or above its downside threshold level on the related determination date. At maturity, investors will receive the stated
principal amount
times
the stock performance factor of the worse performing underlying stock, which will be less than 65%
of the stated principal amount and could be zero.
Investors will lose some and may lose
all of their principal in this scenario.

Hypothetical Examples
The following hypothetical examples illustrate how to determine
whether a contingent quarterly payment is payable with respect to a determination date, whether the securities will be automatically
redeemed on any determination date prior to the final determination date and how to calculate the payment at maturity if the securities
have not been redeemed early. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only. Whether you receive a contingent quarterly
payment or whether the securities will be automatically redeemed will be determined by reference to the closing price of each underlying
stock on each quarterly determination date and the amount you will receive at maturity, if any, will be determined by reference
to the final stock price of each underlying stock. The hypothetical initial stock price of each underlying stock of $100.00 has
been chosen for illustrative purposes only and does not represent the actual initial stock price of either underlying stock. The
actual initial stock price of each underlying stock is the closing price of that underlying stock on the pricing date and is specified
on the cover of this pricing supplement. For historical data regarding the actual closing prices of each underlying stock, please
see the historical information set forth under “Netflix, Inc. Overview” and “Facebook, Inc. Overview," as
applicable, in this pricing supplement. The actual downside threshold level of each underlying stock is specified on the cover
of this pricing supplement. Any payment on the securities is subject to our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s credit risks.
The numbers in the hypothetical examples below may have been rounded for the ease of analysis. The examples below are based on
the following assumed terms:
Contingent
quarterly payment:
|
A contingent
quarterly payment of $0.35 per quarter per security will be paid on the securities on each contingent payment date
but
only if
the closing price of each underlying stock is at or above its downside threshold level on the related determination
date.
|
Early
redemption:
|
If the closing price
of each underlying stock is
greater than or equal to
its initial stock price on any quarterly determination date (other
than the final determination date), the securities will be automatically redeemed for an early redemption payment equal to
the stated principal amount
plus
the contingent quarterly payment with respect to the related determination date.
|
Payment at maturity
(if the securities have not been automatically redeemed early):
|
If
the final stock price of each underlying stock is
greater than or equal to
its
downside threshold level: the stated principal amount and the contingent quarterly payment
with respect to the final determination date
If the final stock price
of either underlying stock is less than its downside threshold level: (i) the stated principal amount

(ii)
the stock performance factor of the worse performing underlying stock

On hypothetical determination
date 1, each underlying stock closes at or above its downside threshold level. Therefore, a contingent quarterly payment of $0.35
is payable on the relevant contingent payment date.
On each of the hypothetical determination
dates 2 and 3, one underlying stock closes at or above its downside threshold level but the other underlying stock closes below
its downside threshold level. Therefore, no contingent quarterly payment is payable on the relevant contingent payment date.
On hypothetical determination
date 4, each underlying stock closes below its downside threshold level and, accordingly, no contingent quarterly payment is payable
on the relevant contingent payment date.
You will not receive a contingent
quarterly payment on any contingent payment date if the closing price of either underlying stock is below its downside threshold
level on the related determination date.

In example 1, the final stock
price of each underlying stock is at or above its downside threshold level. Therefore, you receive at maturity the stated principal
amount of the securities and the contingent quarterly payment with respect to the final determination date.
In example 2, the final stock
price of one underlying stock is at or above its downside threshold level but the final stock price of the other underlying stock
is below its downside threshold level. Therefore, you are exposed to the downside performance of the worse performing underlying
stock at maturity and receive a cash payment at maturity equal to the stated principal amount
times
the stock performance
factor of the worse performing underlying stock.
Similarly, in examples 3 and
4, the final stock price of each underlying stock is below its downside threshold level, and you receive a cash payment at maturity
equal to the stated principal amount
times
the stock performance factor of the worse performing underlying stock.
If the final stock price of
EITHER underlying stock is below its downside threshold level, you will be exposed to the downside performance of the worse performing
underlying stock at maturity, and your payment at maturity will be less than 65% of the stated principal amount per security and
could be zero.
The
hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments on the securities shown above apply
only if you hold the securities for their
entire term or until early redemption.
These hypotheticals do not reflect fees or expenses that would be associated with any
sale in the secondary market. If these fees and expenses were included, the hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments shown
above would likely be lower.

Risk Factors
The following is a non-exhaustive list of certain key risk factors
for investors in the securities. For further discussion of these and other risks, you should read the section entitled “Risk
Factors” of the accompanying product supplement. We urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other
advisers in connection with your investment in the securities.
|
§
|
The securities do not guarantee the return of any principal and your investment in the securities may result in a loss.
The terms of the securities differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that the securities do not guarantee the return of
any of the principal amount at maturity. Instead, if the securities have not been automatically redeemed prior to maturity and
if the final stock price of
either
of the underlying stocks is less than its downside threshold level, you will be exposed
to the decline in the closing price of the worse performing underlying stock, as compared to its initial stock price, on a 1-to-1
basis. Under these circumstances, you will receive for each security that you hold at maturity a cash payment equal to the stated
principal amount
times
the stock performance factor of the worse performing underlying stock.
In this case, your payment
at maturity will be less than 65% of the stated principal amount and could be zero.
|
|
§

You will not receive any contingent quarterly payment for any quarterly period if the closing price of either underlying
stock on the relevant determination date is less than its downside threshold level.
The terms of the securities differ from
those of ordinary debt securities in that the securities do not guarantee the payment of regular interest. Instead, a contingent
quarterly payment will be made with respect to a quarterly period only if the closing price of each underlying stock on the relevant
determination date is greater than or equal to its
downside threshold level
. If the
closing price of either underlying stock is below its
downside threshold level
on
any determination date, you will not receive a contingent quarterly payment for the relevant quarterly period.
It
is possible that the closing price of one or both underlying
stocks
could
be below their respective downside threshold levels on most or all of the determination dates so that you will
receive
few
or no contingent quarterly payments. If you do not earn sufficient contingent quarterly payments over the term of the securities,
the overall return on the securities may be less than the amount that would be paid on one of our conventional debt securities
of comparable maturity.
|
|
§
|
The contingent quarterly payment is based solely on the closing prices of the underlying stocks on the specified determination
dates
.
Whether the contingent quarterly payment will be made
with respect to a determination date will be based on the closing price of each underlying stock on that determination date. As
a result, you will not know whether you will receive the contingent quarterly payment until the related determination date. Moreover,
because the contingent quarterly payment is based solely on the closing price of each underlying stock on a specific determination
date, if the closing price of either of the underlying stocks on that determination date is below its
downside
threshold level
, you will not receive any contingent quarterly payment with respect to that determination date, even if
the closing price of that underlying stock was higher on other days during the related quarterly period.
|
|
§
|
You are exposed to the price risk of both underlying stocks, with respect to all the contingent quarterly payments, if any,
and the payment at maturity, if any.
Your return on the securities is not linked to a basket consisting of the underlying stocks.
Rather, it will be contingent upon the independent performance of each underlying stock. Unlike an instrument with a return linked
to a basket of underlying assets in which risk is mitigated and diversified among all the components of the basket, you will be
exposed to the risks related to each underlying stock. The performance of the underlying stocks may not be correlated. Poor performance
by
either
underlying stock over the term of the securities may negatively affect your return and will not be offset or mitigated
by any positive performance by the other underlying stock. Accordingly, your investment is subject to the risk of decline in the
closing price of each underlying stock.
|
To receive
any
contingent quarterly
payments,
each
underlying stock must close at or above its
downside threshold level
on the applicable determination date. In addition, if
either
underlying stock has declined to below its downside threshold
level as of the final determination date, you will be
fully exposed
to the decline in the worse performing underlying stock,
as compared to its initial stock price, on a 1-to-1 basis, even if the other underlying stock has appreciated. Under this scenario,
the value of any such payment will be less than 65% of the stated principal amount and could be zero.
|
§
|
Because the securities are linked to the performance of the worse performing underlying
stock, you are exposed to greater risks of no contingent quarterly payments and sustaining a significant loss on your investment
than if the securities were linked to just one underlying stock.
The risk that you will not receive any contingent quarterly
payments, or that you will suffer a significant loss on your investment is greater if you invest in the securities than if you
invest in substantially similar securities that are linked to the performance of just one underlying stock. With two underlying
stocks, it is more likely that either underlying stock will close below its
|

Based on the Worse Performing of the Common Stock of Netflix, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Facebook, Inc.
|
|
downside threshold level on any determination date
than if the securities were linked to only one underlying stock. In addition, you will not benefit from the performance of the
underlying stock other than the worse performing underlying stock. Therefore it is more likely that you will not receive any contingent
quarterly payments and that you will suffer a significant loss on your investment.
|
|
§
|
The securities are subject to the credit risks of JPMorgan Financial
and JPMorgan Chase & Co., and any actual or anticipated changes to our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s credit ratings or
credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the securities.
Investors are dependent on our and JPMorgan
Chase & Co.’s ability to pay all amounts due on the securities. Any actual or anticipated decline in our or JPMorgan
Chase & Co.’s credit ratings or increase in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s credit spreads determined by the
market for taking that credit risk is likely to adversely affect the market value of the securities. If we and JPMorgan Chase &
Co. were to default on our payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the securities 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 securities. If these affiliates
do not make payments to us and we fail to make payments on the securities, 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.
|
|
§
|
Investors will not participate in any appreciation of either underlying
stock.
Investors will not participate in any appreciation of either underlying stock from
its initial stock price, and the return on the securities will be limited to the contingent quarterly payment that is paid with
respect to each determination date on which the closing price of each underlying stock is greater than or equal to its
downside
threshold level
, if any.
|
|
§
|
Early redemption risk.
The
term of your investment in the securities may be limited to as short as approximately three months by the automatic early redemption
feature of the securities. If the securities are redeemed prior to maturity, you will receive no more contingent quarterly payments
and may be forced to reinvest in a lower interest rate environment and you may not be able to reinvest the proceeds from an investment
in the securities at a comparable return for a similar level of risk.
|
|
§
|
Economic interests of the issuer, the guarantor, the calculation
agent, the agent of the offering of the securities and other affiliates of the issuer may be different from those of investors.
We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the securities,
including acting as calculation agent and as an agent of the offering of the securities, hedging our obligations under the securities
and making the assumptions used to determine the pricing of the securities and the estimated value of the securities, which we
refer to as the estimated value of the securities. 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 securities. The calculation agent has determined the initial stock prices and the downside threshold levels
and will determine the final stock prices and whether the closing price of each underlying stock on any determination date is greater
than or equal to its initial stock price or is below its downside threshold level. Determinations made by the calculation agent,
including with respect to the occurrence or non-occurrence of market disruption events, may affect the payment to you at maturity
or whether the securities are redeemed early.
|
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 securities
and the value of the securities. It is possible that hedging or trading activities of ours or our affiliates in connection with
the securities could result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value of the securities declines. Please
refer to “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest” in the accompanying product supplement for
additional information about these risks.
|
§
|
The estimated value of the securities is lower than the original
issue price (price to public) of the securities.
The estimated value of the securities is
only an estimate determined by reference to several factors. The original issue price of the securities exceeds the estimated value
of the securities because costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the securities are included in the original issue
price of the securities. These costs include the selling commissions, the structuring fee, the projected profits, if any, that
our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the securities and the estimated
cost of hedging our obligations under the securities. See “Additional Information about the Securities — The estimated
value of the securities” in this document.

|
§
|
The estimated value of the securities does not represent future
values of the securities and may differ from others’ estimates. The estimated value of the securities is determined by reference
to internal pricing models of our affiliates.
This estimated value of the securities is
based on market conditions and other relevant factors existing at the time of pricing and assumptions about market parameters,
which can include volatility, dividend rates, interest rates and other factors. Different pricing models and assumptions could
provide valuations for the securities that are greater than or less than the estimated value of the securities. 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 securities 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 securities from you in secondary market transactions. See “Additional Information about
the Securities — The estimated value of the securities” in this document.
|
|
§
|
The estimated value of the securities is derived by reference to
an internal funding rate.
The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated
value of the securities 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 securities as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability management costs
of the securities 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 securities. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential changes
to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the securities and any secondary market prices of the securities. See “Additional
Information about the Securities — The estimated value of the securities” in this document.
|
|
§
|
The value of the securities as published by JPMS (and which may
be reflected on customer account statements) may be higher than the then-current estimated value of the securities for a limited
time period.
We generally expect that some of the costs included in the original issue price
of the securities will be partially paid back to you in connection with any repurchases of your securities by JPMS in an amount
that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period. These costs can include selling commissions, the structuring fee,
projected hedging profits, if any, and, in some circumstances, estimated hedging costs and our internal secondary market funding
rates for structured debt issuances. See “Additional Information about the Securities — Secondary market prices of
the securities” in this document for additional information relating to this initial period. Accordingly, the estimated value
of your securities during this initial period may be lower than the value of the securities as published by JPMS (and which may
be shown on your customer account statements).
|
|
§
|
Secondary market prices of the securities will likely be lower than
the original issue price of the securities.
Any secondary market prices of the securities
will likely be lower than the original issue price of the securities because, among other things, secondary market prices take
into account our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances and, also, because secondary market prices
may exclude selling commissions and the structuring fee, projected hedging profits, if any, and estimated hedging costs that are
included in the original issue price of the securities. As a result, the price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to buy securities
from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, is likely to be lower than the original issue price. Any sale by you prior
to the maturity date could result in a substantial loss to you. See the immediately following risk factor for information about
additional factors that will impact any secondary market prices of the securities.
|
The
securities are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your securities
to maturity. See “— Secondary trading may be limited” below.
|
§
|
Secondary market prices of the securities will be impacted by many
economic and market factors.
The secondary market price of the securities during their
term will be impacted by a number of economic and market factors, which may either offset or magnify each other, aside from the
selling commissions, structuring fee, projected hedging profits, if any, estimated hedging costs and the closing price of each
underlying 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 in the closing price of each underlying stock;
|
|
○
|
the time to maturity of the securities;
|
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC
Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due May 20, 2020
Based on the Worse Performing of the Common Stock of Netflix, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Facebook, Inc.
|
○
|
whether the closing price of one share of either underlying stock has been, or is expected to be, less than its downside threshold
level on any determination date;
|
|
○
|
the likelihood of an early redemption being triggered;
|
|
○
|
the dividend rates on the underlying stocks;
|
|
○
|
the actual and expected positive or negative correlation between the underlying stocks, or the actual or expected absence of
any such correlation;
|
|
○
|
interest and yield rates in the market generally;
|
|
○
|
the occurrence of certain events affecting the issuer of an underlying stock that may or may not require an adjustment to its
stock adjustment factor, 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 securities, which may also be reflected on customer account
statements. This price may be different (higher or lower) than the price of the securities, if any, at which JPMS may be willing
to purchase your securities in the secondary market.
|
§
|
Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in either
underlying stock.
Investors in the securities will not have voting rights or rights to receive
dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the underlying stock.
|
|
§
|
No affiliation with Netflix, Inc. or Facebook, Inc.
Netflix,
Inc. and Facebook, Inc. are not affiliates of ours, are not involved with this offering in any way, and have no obligation to consider
your interests in taking any corporate actions that might affect the value of the securities. We have not made any due diligence
inquiry with respect to Netflix, Inc. and Facebook, Inc. in connection with this offering.
|
|
§
|
We may engage in business with or involving Netflix, Inc. or Facebook,
Inc. without regard to your interests.
We or our affiliates may presently or from time to
time engage in business with Netflix, Inc. or Facebook, Inc. without regard to your interests and thus may acquire non-public information
about Netflix, Inc. or Facebook, Inc. Neither we nor any of our affiliates undertakes to disclose any such information to you.
In addition, we or our affiliates from time to time have published and in the future may publish research reports with respect
to Netflix, Inc. or Facebook, Inc., which may or may not recommend that investors buy or hold an underlying stock.
|
|
§
|
The anti-dilution protection for the underlying stocks is limited
and may be discretionary.
The calculation agent will make adjustments to the stock adjustment
factor of an underlying stock and other adjustments for certain corporate events affecting that underlying stock. However, the
calculation agent will not make an adjustment in response to all events that could affect either underlying stock. If an event
occurs that does not require the calculation agent to make an adjustment, the value of the securities 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 securities in making these determinations
.
|
|
§
|
Hedging and trading activities by the issuer and its affiliates could potentially affect the value of the
securities
.
The hedging or trading activities of the issuer’s affiliates and of any other hedging counterparty with respect to the
securities on or prior to the pricing date and prior
to maturity could have adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, the closing prices of the underlying stocks. Any
of these hedging or trading activities
on or prior to the pricing date could have affected the initial stock prices and,
as a result, the downside threshold levels, which are the respective levels at or above which the underlying stocks must close
on each determination date in order for you to earn a contingent quarterly payment or, if the securities are not called prior to
maturity, in order for you to avoid being exposed to the negative price performance of the worse performing underlying stock at
maturity. Additionally, these hedging or trading activities during the term of the securities could potentially affect the values
of the underlying stocks on the determination dates and, accordingly, whether investors will receive one or more contingent quarterly
payments, whether the securities are automatically redeemed prior to maturity and, if the securities are not redeemed prior to
maturity, the payment to you at maturity. It is possible that these hedging or trading activities could result in substantial returns
for us or our affiliates while the value of the securities declines.

§

Secondary trading may be limited.
Th
e
securities will not be listed on a securities exchange. There may be little or no secondary market for the securities. Even if
there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the securities easily
.
JPMS
may act as a market maker for the securities, but is not required to do so. Because we do not expect that other market
makers will participate significantly in the secondary market for the securities, the price at which you may be able to trade your
securities is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which
JPMS
is willing to buy the securities. If at any time
JPMS
or another agent does not act as a market maker, it is likely that there would be little or no secondary market for the securities.

|
The U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities are uncertain.
There is no direct legal
authority as to the proper U.S. federal income tax treatment of the securities, and we do not intend to request a ruling from the
IRS. The IRS might not accept, and a court might not uphold, the treatment of the securities as prepaid forward contracts with
associated contingent coupons, as described in “Additional Information about the Securities — Additional Provisions
— Tax considerations” in this document and in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying
product supplement. If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the securities, the timing and character
of any income or loss on the securities could be materially affected. Although the U.S. federal income tax treatment of contingent
quarterly payments (including any contingent quarterly payments paid in connection with an early redemption or at maturity) is
uncertain, in determining our reporting responsibilities we intend (in the absence of an administrative determination or judicial
ruling to the contrary) to treat any contingent quarterly payments as ordinary income. 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 securities,
possibly with retroactive effect. You should review carefully the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”
in the accompanying product supplement and consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment
in the securities, including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by this notice.
|
Non-U.S. Holders — Tax Consideration.
The U.S. federal income tax treatment of contingent quarterly payments is uncertain, and although we believe it is reasonable
to take a position that contingent quarterly 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 securities 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). In the event of any withholding, we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with
respect to amounts so withheld. 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 securities in light of your particular circumstances.

Calculation
agent:
|
JPMS
|
The
estimated value of the securities:
|
The
estimated value of the securities set forth on the cover of this document is equal to
the sum of the values of the following hypothetical components: (1) a fixed-income debt
component with the same maturity as the securities, valued using the internal funding
rate described below, and (2) the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms
of the securities. The estimated value of the securities does not represent a minimum
price at which JPMS would be willing to buy your securities in any secondary market (if
any exists) at any time. The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated
value of the securities 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 securities as well as the higher issuance, operational and
ongoing liability management costs of the securities 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
securities. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential changes to that rate
may have an adverse effect on the terms of the securities and any secondary market prices
of the securities. For additional information, see “Risk Factors — The estimated
value of the securities is derived by reference to an internal funding rate” in
this document. The value of the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms
of the securities 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
securities on the pricing date is based on market conditions and other relevant factors
and assumptions existing at that time. See “Risk Factors — The estimated
value of the securities does not represent future values of the securities and may differ
from others’ estimates” in this document.
The estimated value
of the securities is lower than the original issue price of the securities because costs associated with selling, structuring
and hedging the securities are included in the original issue price of the securities. These costs include the selling
commissions paid to JPMS and other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, the structuring fee, the projected profits, if
any, that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the securities
and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the securities. 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 securities. See “Risk Factors — The estimated value of the securities is lower than the original
issue price (price to public) of the securities” in this document.
|
Secondary
market prices of the securities:
|
For information about factors that
will impact any secondary market prices of the securities, see “Risk Factors — Secondary market prices of the
securities will be impacted by many economic and market factors” in this document. In addition, we generally expect
that some of the costs included in the original issue price of the securities will be partially paid back to you in connection
with any repurchases of your securities by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period
that is intended to be the shorter of two years and one-half of the stated term of the securities. The length of
any such initial period reflects the structure of the securities, whether our affiliates expect to earn a profit in connection
with our hedging activities, the estimated costs of hedging the securities and when these costs are incurred, as determined
by our affiliates. See “Risk Factors — The value of the securities as published by JPMS (and which
may be reflected on customer account statements) may be higher than the then-current estimated value of the securities for
a limited time period.”

Tax
considerations:
|
You
should review carefully the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax
Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement no. MS-1-I. In determining
our reporting responsibilities we intend to treat (i) the securities for U.S. federal
income tax purposes as prepaid forward contracts with associated contingent coupons and
(ii) any contingent quarterly 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

Based on the Worse Performing of the Common Stock of Netflix, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Facebook, Inc.
|
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 securities 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 securities, possibly with retroactive effect.
The discussions above and in the accompanying product supplement do not address the consequences
to taxpayers subject to special tax accounting rules under Section 451(b) of the Code.
You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences
of an investment in the securities, including possible alternative treatments and the
issues presented by the notice described above.
Non-U.S. Holders —
Tax Considerations.
The U.S. federal income tax treatment of contingent quarterly payments is uncertain, and although
we believe it is reasonable to take a position that contingent quarterly 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 securities 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 securities in light of your particular circumstances.
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 (such an index, a “Qualified Index”). Additionally,
a recent IRS notice excludes from the scope of Section 871(m) instruments issued prior to January 1, 2021 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 securities 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 securities.
FATCA
. Withholding
under legislation commonly referred to as “FATCA” could apply to payments with respect to the securities 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 securities are recharacterized, in whole or in part, as
debt instruments, or contingent quarterly payments if they are otherwise treated as FDAP Income). If the securities are
recharacterized, in whole or in part, as debt instruments, withholding could also apply to payments of gross proceeds
of a taxable disposition, including an early redemption or redemption at maturity, although under recently proposed regulations
(the preamble to which specifies that taxpayers are permitted to rely on them pending finalization), no withholding will
apply to payments of gross proceeds (other than any amount treated as FDAP Income). You should consult your tax adviser
regarding the potential application of FATCA to the securities.
In the event of any withholding
on the securities, we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts so withheld.

Supplemental
use of proceeds and hedging:
|
The
securities are offered to meet investor demand for products that reflect the risk-return
profile and market exposure provided by the securities. See “How the Securities
Work” and “Hypothetical Examples” in this document for an illustration
of the risk-return profile of the securities and “Netflix, Inc. Overview”
and “Facebook, Inc. Overview” in this document for a description of the market
exposure provided by the securities.
The original issue
price of the securities is equal to the estimated value of the securities plus the selling commissions paid to JPMS and
other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers and the structuring fee, plus (minus) the projected profits (losses) that our
affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the securities, plus the estimated
cost of hedging our obligations under the securities.

Based on the Worse Performing of the Common Stock of Netflix, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Facebook, Inc.
Supplemental
plan of distribution:
|
Subject
to regulatory constraints, JPMS intends to use its reasonable efforts to offer to purchase
the securities in the secondary market, but is not required to do so. JPMS, acting as
agent for JPMorgan Financial, will pay all of the selling commissions it receives from
us to Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. In addition, Morgan Stanley Wealth Management
will receive a structuring fee as set forth on the cover of this document for each security.
We or our affiliate may
enter into swap agreements or related hedge transactions with one of our other affiliates or unaffiliated counterparties
in connection with the sale of the securities and JPMS and/or an affiliate may earn additional income as a result of payments
pursuant to the swap or related hedge transactions. See “— Supplemental use of proceeds and hedging”
above and “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying product supplement.
We expect that delivery
of the securities will be made against payment for the securities on or about the original issue date set forth on the
front cover of this document, which will be the third business day following the pricing date of the securities (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 securities 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.

Validity
of the securities and the guarantee:
|
In the opinion of Davis
Polk & Wardwell LLP, as special products counsel to JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co., when the securities
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 securities 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 securities 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 March 8, 2018, which was filed as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement on Form S-3 by JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co. on March 8, 2018.
