Callable Contingent Interest Notes Linked to the

Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by JPMorgan

General
|
·
|
The
notes are designed for investors who seek a Contingent Interest Payment with respect to each Review Date for which the closing
level of each of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50®
Index (in the case of any Review Date other than the final Review Date) or the Ending Index Level of each Index (in the
case of the final Review Date) is greater than or equal to 70.00% of its Initial Index Level, 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.
|
|
·
|
The
notes may be redeemed early, in whole but not in part, at our option on any of the Interest Payment Dates. The earliest date on
which the notes may be redeemed early is March 3, 2020.
|
|
·
|
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 composed of the Indices. The payment at maturity is linked to the
performance of each of the Indices individually, as described below.

|
Contingent Interest Payments:
|
If the notes have not been previously redeemed early and, with
respect to any Review Date, the closing level of each Index (in the case of any Review Date other than the final Review Date) or
the Ending Index Level of each Index (in the case of the final Review Date) 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 at least $18.125. The actual Contingent Interest Payment will be provided in the pricing supplement and will not be less than
$18.125.
If, with respect to any Review Date, the closing level of any
Index (in the case of any Review Date other than the final Review Date) or the Ending Index Level of any Index (in the case of
the final Review Date) is less than its Interest Barrier, no Contingent Interest Payment will be made with respect to that Review
Date.
|
Interest Barrier / Trigger Level:
|
With respect to each Index, an amount that represents 70.00% of its Initial Index Level
|
Early Redemption:
|
We, at our election, may redeem the notes early, in whole but not in part, on any of the Interest Payment Dates at a price for each $1,000 principal amount note equal to $1,000 plus the Contingent Interest Payment, if any, applicable to the immediately preceding Review Date. If we intend to redeem your notes early, we will deliver notice to The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, at least three business days before the applicable Interest Payment Dates on which the notes are redeemed early.
|
Payment at Maturity:
|
If the notes have not been redeemed early and a Trigger Event
has not occurred, you will receive a cash payment at maturity, for each $1,000 principal amount note, equal to (a)
$1,000 plus (b) the Contingent Interest Payment applicable to the final Review Date.
If the notes have not been redeemed early and a Trigger Event
has occurred, at maturity you will lose 1% of the principal amount of your notes for every 1% that the Ending Index
Level of the Least Performing Index is less than its Initial Index Level. Under these circumstances, your payment at maturity per
$1,000 principal amount note will be calculated as follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × Least Performing
Index Return)
If the notes have not been redeemed early and a Trigger Event
has occurred, you will lose more than 30.00% of your principal amount at maturity and could lose up to the entire principal amount
of your notes at maturity.

What Are the Payments on the Notes, Assuming
a Range of Performances for the Least Performing Index?
If the notes have not been previously redeemed early and,
with respect to any Review Date, the closing level of each Index (in the case of any Review Date other than the final Review Date)
or the Ending Index Level of each Index (in the case of the final Review Date) 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 at least $18.125. The actual Contingent Interest Payment will be provided in the pricing supplement and will not be less than
$18.125. If the notes have not been previously redeemed early and, with respect to any Review Date, the closing level of any Index
(in the case of any Review Date other than the final Review Date) or the Ending Index Level of any Index (in the case of the final
Review Date) 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 level of any Index is less than its
Interest Barrier as a “No-Coupon Date.” The following table assumes a Contingent Interest Payment of $18.125 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 Least Performing
Index is the Russell 2000® Index and that the notes have not been previously redeemed early. We make no representation
or warranty as to which of the Indices will be the Least Performing Index for purposes of calculating your actual payment at maturity,
if any, or as to what the closing level of any Index will be on any Review Date. In addition, the following table and examples
assume an Initial Index Level for the Least Performing Index of 1,500, an Interest Barrier and a Trigger Level for the Least Performing
Index of 1,050.50 (equal to 70.00% of the hypothetical Initial Index Level) and a Contingent Interest Payment of $18.125. The actual
Contingent Interest Payment will be provided in the pricing supplement and will not be less than $18.125. 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.

(1) You will receive a Contingent Interest Payment in
connection with a Review Date (other than the final Review Date) if the closing level of each Index on that Review Date is greater
than or equal to its Interest Barrier.
(2) With respect to each Index, the Ending Index Level
is equal to the arithmetic average of the closing levels of that Index on the Ending Averaging Dates.
(3) You will receive a Contingent Interest Payment
in connection with the final Review Date if the Ending Index Level is greater than or equal to its Interest Barrier.
(4) A Trigger Event occurs if the Ending Index Level
(i.e., the arithmetic average of the closing levels on the Ending Averaging Dates) of any Index 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 notes have not been redeemed early, Contingent
Interest Payments are paid in connection with each of the Review Dates preceding the final Review Date and the level of the Least
Performing Index increases from the Initial Index Level of 1,500 to an Ending Index Level of 1,800 — A Trigger Event has
not occurred. The investor receives a payment of $18.125 per $1,000 principal amount note in connection with each of the Review
Dates preceding the final Review Date. Because the notes have not been redeemed early and a Trigger Event has not occurred, the
investor receives at maturity a payment of $1,018.125 per $1,000 principal amount note. This payment consists of a Contingent Interest
Payment of $18.125 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 $1,072.50 per $1,000 principal amount note. This represents
the maximum total payment an investor may receive over the term of the notes.
Example 2: The notes have not been redeemed early, Contingent
Interest Payments are paid in connection with two of the Review Dates preceding the final Review Date and the level of the Least
Performing Index decreases from the Initial Index Level of 1,500 to an Ending Index Level of 1,050 — A Trigger Event has
not occurred. The investor receives a payment of $18.125 per $1,000 principal amount note in connection with two of the Review
Dates preceding the final Review Date. Because the notes have not been redeemed early and a Trigger Event has not occurred, even
though the Ending Index Level of the Least Performing Index is less than its Initial Index Level, the investor receives at maturity
a payment of $1,018.125 per $1,000 principal amount note. This payment consists of a Contingent Interest Payment of $18.125 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 $1,054.375 per $1,000 principal amount note.
Example 3: The notes have not been redeemed early, Contingent
Interest Payments are paid in connection with each of the Review Dates preceding the final Review Date and the level of the Least
Performing Index decreases from the Initial Index Level of 1,500 to an Ending Index Level of 600 — A Trigger Event has occurred.
The investor receives a payment of $18.125 per $1,000 principal amount note in connection with each of the Review Dates preceding
the final Review Date. Because the notes have not been redeemed early, a Trigger Event has occurred and the Least Performing Index
Return is -60%, the investor receives at maturity a payment of $400 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × -60%) = $400
The total amount paid on the notes over the term of the notes
is $454.375 per $1,000 principal amount note.
Example 4: The notes have not been redeemed early, no Contingent
Interest Payments are paid in connection with the Review Dates preceding the final Review Date and the level of the Least Performing
Index decreases from the Initial Index Level of 1,500 to an Ending Index Level of 450 — A Trigger Event has occurred. Because
the notes have not been redeemed early, no Contingent Interest Payments are paid in connection with the Review Dates preceding
the final Review Date, a Trigger Event has occurred and the Ending Index Level of the Least Performing Index is less than its Interest
Barrier, 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. 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 at least $18.125* per $1,000 principal
amount note. If the notes have not been redeemed early and, with respect to any Review Date, the closing level of each Index (in
the case of any Review Date other than the final Review Date) or the Ending Index Level of each Index (in the case of the final
Review Date) is greater than or equal to its Interest Barrier, you will receive a Contingent Interest Payment on the applicable
Interest Payment Date. If the notes have not been redeemed early and, with respect to any Review Date, the closing level of any
Index (in the case of any Review Date other than the final Review Date) or the Ending Index Level of any Index (in the case of
the final Review Date) is less than its Interest Barrier, no Contingent Interest Payment will be made with respect to that Review
Date. 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.
|
* The actual Contingent Interest Payment
will be provided in the pricing supplement and will not be less than $18.125.
|
·
|
POTENTIAL EARLY EXIT AS A RESULT OF THE OPTIONAL
EARLY REDEMPTION FEATURE — We, at our election, may redeem the notes early, in whole but not in part, on any of the Interest
Payment Dates. If the notes are redeemed early, you will receive $1,000 plus the Contingent Interest Payment, if any, applicable
to the immediately preceding Review Date for each $1,000 principal amount note on the applicable Interest Payment Date on which
the notes are redeemed early. Even in cases where the notes are redeemed 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 REDEEMED EARLY — If the notes have not been redeemed early, we will pay you your
principal back at maturity only if a Trigger Event has not occurred. However, if the notes have not been redeemed early and
a Trigger Event has occurred, you will lose more than 30.00% of your principal amount and could lose up to the entire principal
amount of your notes at maturity.

INDICES — The return on the notes is linked to the Least Performing Index, which will be any of the S&P 500®
Index, the Russell 2000® Index or the EURO STOXX 50® Index.
|
The S&P 500®
Index consists of stocks of 500 companies selected to provide a performance benchmark for the U.S. equity markets. For additional
information about the S&P 500® Index, see “Equity Index Descriptions — The S&P U.S. Indices”
in the accompanying underlying supplement.
The Russell 2000®
Index consists of the middle 2,000 companies included in the Russell 3000E™ Index and, as a result of the index calculation
methodology, consists of the smallest 2,000 companies included in the Russell 3000® Index. The Russell 2000®
Index is designed to track the performance of the small capitalization segment of the U.S. equity market. For additional information
about the Russell 2000® Index, see “Equity Index Descriptions — The Russell Indices” in the accompanying
underlying supplement.
The EURO STOXX 50®
Index consists of 50 component stocks of market sector leaders from within the Eurozone. The EURO STOXX 50® Index
and STOXX® are the intellectual property (including registered trademarks) of STOXX Limited, Zurich, Switzerland
and/or its licensors (the “Licensors”), which are used under license. The notes based on the EURO STOXX 50®
Index are in no way sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by STOXX Limited and its Licensors and neither STOXX Limited nor any

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 Latham & Watkins 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. 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 notes, 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 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.
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, we expect that Section 871(m) will 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. If necessary, further information regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) will be provided in the
pricing supplement for the notes. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application of Section 871(m)
to the notes.
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). If the notes 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 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 one or more of the Indices or any of the equity securities included in
or held by the Indices. These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” sections of the accompanying
product supplement and the accompanying underlying 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 redeemed early and a Trigger Event has occurred,
you will lose 1% of your principal amount at maturity for every 1% that the Ending Index Level of the Least Performing Index is
less than its Initial Index Level. Accordingly, under these circumstances, you will lose more than 30.00% of your principal
amount at maturity and could lose up to the entire 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 each Index. Contingent Interest Payments should not
be viewed as periodic interest payments. If the notes have not been redeemed early, we will make a Contingent Interest Payment
with respect to a Review Date only if the closing level of each Index (in the case of any Review Date other than the final Review
Date) or the Ending Index Level of each Index (in the case of the final Review Date) is greater than or equal to its Interest Barrier.
If the notes have not been redeemed early and, with respect to any Review Date, the closing level of any Index (in the case of
any Review Date other than the final Review Date) or the Ending Index Level of any Index (in the case of the final Review Date)
is less than its Interest Barrier, no Contingent Interest Payment will be made with respect to that Review Date, and the Contingent
Interest Payment that would otherwise have been payable with respect to that Review Date will not be accrued and subsequently paid.
Accordingly, if the closing level of any Index on each Review Date (other than the final Review Date) and the Ending Index Level
of any Index are less than its Interest Barrier, you will not receive any 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 OPTIONAL EARLY REDEMPTION FEATURE MAY FORCE
A POTENTIAL EARLY EXIT — If the notes are redeemed early, 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 $1,000 plus the Contingent Interest Payment, if any, applicable
to the immediately preceding Review Date on the applicable Interest Payment Date on which the notes are redeemed early.
|
|
·
|
REINVESTMENT RISK — If your notes are
redeemed early, the term of the notes may be reduced to as short as three months and you will not receive any Contingent Interest
Payments after the applicable Interest Payment 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 redeemed early prior to the Maturity Date.
|
|
·
|
THE APPRECIATION POTENTIAL OF THE NOTES IS LIMITED,
AND YOU WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN ANY APPRECIATION IN THE LEVEL OF ANY INDEX — 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 any Index, which may be significant. You will not participate in any appreciation of any Index. Accordingly, the return on the
notes may be significantly less than the return on a direct investment in any Index 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.
|
In
addition, JPMorgan Chase & Co. is currently one of the companies that make up the S&P 500® Index,
but JPMorgan Chase & Co. will have no obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the notes in taking any corporate
action that might affect the value of the S&P 500® Index.
|
·
|
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.
|
|
·
|
YOU ARE EXPOSED TO THE RISK OF DECLINE IN THE
LEVEL OF EACH INDEX — Your return on the notes and your payment at maturity, if any, is not linked to a basket consisting
of the Indices. If the notes have not been redeemed early, your payment at maturity is contingent upon the performance of each
individual Index such that you will be equally exposed to the risks related to each of the Indices. The performance
of the Indices may not be correlated. Poor performance by any of the Indices 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 any other Index. Accordingly, your investment is subject to the risk of decline in the
level of each Index.
|
|
·
|
THE BENEFIT PROVIDED
BY THE TRIGGER LEVEL MAY TERMINATE ON THE FINAL REVIEW DATE — If the Ending Index Level of any Index is less than its
Trigger Level (i.e., a Trigger Event occurs) and the notes have not been redeemed early, the benefit provided by the Trigger
Level will terminate and you will be fully exposed to any depreciation of the Least Performing Index from its Initial Index Level
to its Ending Index Level.
|
|
·
|
YOUR PAYMENT AT MATURITY WILL BE DETERMINED BY
THE LEAST PERFORMING INDEX — Because the payment at maturity will be determined based on the performance of the Least
Performing Index, you will not benefit from the performance of any other Index. Accordingly, if the notes have not been redeemed
early and a Trigger Event has occurred, you will lose some or all of your principal amount at maturity, even if the Ending Index
Level of any other Index is greater than or equal to its Initial Index Level.
|
|
·
|
THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES WILL BE 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 will exceed 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 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. These costs can include selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, and, in some circumstances,
estimated hedging costs and our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances. 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 may exclude selling commissions,
projected hedging profits, if any, and estimated hedging costs that are included in the original issue price of the notes. As a
result, the price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to buy 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 levels of the Indices, 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 levels
of the Indices;
|
|
·
|
the time to maturity of the notes;
|
|
·
|
whether the closing level of any Index or Ending
Index Level, 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 optional early redemption feature and whether
we are expected to redeem the notes early, which is likely to limit the value of the notes;
|
|
·
|
the dividend rates on the equity securities included
in the Indices;
|
|
·
|
the actual and expected positive or negative correlation
among the Indices, or the actual or expected absence of any such correlation;
|
|
·
|
interest and yield rates in the market generally;
|
|
·
|
the exchange rates and the volatility of the exchange
rates between the U.S. dollar and each of the currencies in which the equity securities included in the EURO STOXX 50®
Index trade and the correlation among those rates and the level of the EURO STOXX 50® Index; 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 DIVIDENDS OR VOTING RIGHTS — As a
holder of the notes, you will not have voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions or other rights
that holders of securities included in any Index would have.
|
|
·
|
NON-U.S. SECURITIES RISK WITH RESPECT TO THE EURO
STOXX 50® INDEX — The equity securities included in the EURO STOXX 50® Index have been
issued by non-U.S. companies. Investments in securities linked to the value of such non-U.S. equity securities involve risks associated
with the securities markets in the home countries of the issuers of those non-U.S. equity securities, including risks of volatility
in those markets, governmental intervention in those markets and cross shareholdings in companies in certain countries. Also, there
is generally less publicly available information about companies in some of these jurisdictions than there is about U.S. companies
that are subject to the reporting requirements of the SEC.
|
|
·
|
NO DIRECT EXPOSURE TO FLUCTUATIONS IN FOREIGN
EXCHANGE RATES — The value of your notes will not be adjusted for exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar
and the currencies upon which the equity securities included in the EURO STOXX 50® Index are based, although any
currency fluctuations could affect the performance of the EURO STOXX 50® Index. Therefore, if the applicable currencies
appreciate or depreciate relative to the U.S. dollar over the term of the notes, you will not receive any additional payment or
incur any reduction in any payment on the notes.
|
|
·
|
VOLATILITY RISK — Greater expected volatility
with respect to an Index indicates a greater likelihood as of the Pricing Date that the closing level of that Index on a Review
Date (other than the final Review Date) or the Ending Index Level of that Index could be less than its Interest Barrier and/or
that a Trigger Event could occur. An Index’s volatility, however, can change significantly over the term of the notes. The
closing level of an Index could fall sharply on any day during the term of the notes, which could result in your not receiving
any Contingent Interest Payment or a significant loss of principal, or both.
|
|
·
|
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 FINAL TERMS AND VALUATION OF THE NOTES WILL
BE PROVIDED IN THE PRICING SUPPLEMENT — The final terms of the notes will be based on relevant market conditions when
the terms of the notes are set and will be provided in the pricing supplement. In particular, each of the estimated value of the
notes and the Contingent Interest Payment will be provided in the pricing supplement and each may be as low as the applicable minimum
set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement. Accordingly, you should consider your potential investment in the notes based
on the minimums for the estimated value of the notes and the Contingent Interest Payment.

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 — 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 will be 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 Will Be 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.”

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.
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.
