Performing of the Russell 2000® Index, the Nasdaq-100 Index® and the S&P 500® Index due
September 16, 2027
Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co.
| · | 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 Russell 2000® Index, the Nasdaq-100 Index® and the S&P 500® Index,
which we refer to as the Indices, is greater than or equal to 60.00% of its Initial Value, which we refer to as an Interest Barrier. |
| · | The notes may be redeemed early, in whole but not in part, at our option on any of the Interest Payment Dates (other than the first
through fifth and final Interest Payment Dates). |
| · | The earliest date on which the notes may be redeemed early is March 14, 2025. |
| · | Investors should be willing to accept the risk of losing some or all of their principal and the risk that no Contingent Interest Payment
may be made with respect to some or all Review Dates. |
| · | Investors should also be willing to forgo fixed interest and dividend payments, in exchange for the opportunity to receive Contingent
Interest Payments. |
| · | 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. |

Maturity
Date*: September 16, 2027 |
Early Redemption:
We, at our election, may redeem the notes early, in whole but not in
part, on any of the Interest Payment Dates (other than the first through fifth and final Interest Payment Dates) at a price, for each
$1,000 principal amount note, equal to (a) $1,000 plus (b) 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 Date on which the notes are redeemed early.
Payment at Maturity:
If the notes have not been redeemed early and the Final Value of each
Index is greater than or equal to its Trigger Value, 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 the Final Value of any
Index is less than its Trigger Value, your payment at maturity per $1,000 principal amount note, in addition to any Contingent Interest
Payment, will be calculated as follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × Least Performing Index
Return)
If the notes have not been redeemed early and the Final Value of
any Index is less than its Trigger Value, you will lose more than 30.00% of your principal amount at maturity and could lose all of your
principal amount at maturity.

Hypothetical
Payout Examples
The following examples illustrate payments on the notes
linked to three hypothetical Indices, assuming a range of performances for the hypothetical Least Performing Index on the Review Dates.
Each hypothetical payment set forth below assumes that the closing level of each Index that is not the Least Performing Index on each
Review Date is greater than or equal to its Initial Value (and therefore its Interest Barrier and Trigger Value).
The hypothetical payments set forth below assume the
following:
| · | the notes have not been redeemed early; |
| · | an Initial Value for the Least Performing Index of 100.00; |
| · | an Interest Barrier for the Least Performing Index of 60.00 (equal to 60.00% of its hypothetical Initial Value); |
| · | a Trigger Value for the Least Performing Index of 70.00 (equal to 70.00% of its hypothetical Initial Value); and |
| · | a Contingent Interest Rate of 7.05% per annum. |
The hypothetical Initial Value of the Least Performing
Index of 100.00 has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and may not represent a likely actual Initial Value of any Index. The actual
Initial Value of each Index will be the closing level of that Index on the Pricing Date and will be provided in the pricing supplement.
For historical data regarding the actual closing levels of each Index, please see the historical information set forth under “The
Indices” in this pricing supplement.
Each hypothetical 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 examples
have been rounded for ease of analysis.
Example 1 — Notes have NOT been redeemed early
and the Final Value of the Least Performing Index is greater than or equal to its Trigger Value.
Date |
Closing Level of Least
Performing Index |
Payment (per $1,000 principal amount note) |
First Review Date |

Second Review Date |

Third through Thirty-Fifth Review Dates |

$0 |
Final Review Date |
90.00 |
$1,005.875 |
|
Total Payment |
$1,017.625 (1.7625% return) |
Because the notes have not been redeemed early and
the Final Value of the Least Performing Index is greater than or equal to its Trigger Value, the payment at maturity, for each $1,000
principal amount note, will be $1,005.875 (or $1,000 plus the Contingent Interest Payment applicable to the final Review Date).
When added to the Contingent Interest Payments received with respect to the prior Review Dates, the total amount paid, for each $1,000
principal amount note, is $1,017.625.

Total Payment |
$655.875 (-34.4125% return) |
Because the notes have not been redeemed early and
the Final Value of the Least Performing Index is less than its Trigger Value but is greater than or equal to its Interest Barrier and
the Least Performing Index Return is -35.00%, the payment at maturity will be $655.875 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as
follows:
$1,000 + [$1,000 × (-35.00%)] + $5.875 = $655.875

3 — Notes have NOT been redeemed early and the Final Value of the Least Performing Index is less than its Trigger Value and its
Interest Barrier.

Final Review Date |

$400.00 |
|
Total Payment |
$400.00 (-60.00% return) |
Because the notes have not been redeemed early, the
Final Value of the Least Performing Index is less than its Trigger Value and its Interest Barrier and the Least Performing Index Return
is -60.00%, the payment at maturity will be $400.00 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:
$1,000 + [$1,000 × (-60.00%)] = $400.00
The hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments
on the notes shown above apply only if you hold the notes for their entire term. These hypotheticals do not reflect the fees or
expenses that would be associated with any sale in the secondary market. If these fees and expenses were included, the hypothetical returns
and hypothetical payments shown above would likely be lower.
Selected
Risk Considerations
An investment in the notes involves significant risks.
These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” sections of the accompanying prospectus supplement and product
supplement and in Annex A to the accompanying prospectus addendum.
Risks Relating to the Notes Generally
| · | YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS — |
The notes do not guarantee any return of principal.
If the notes have not been redeemed early and the Final Value of any Index is less than its Trigger Value, you will lose 1% of the principal
amount of your notes for every 1% that the Final Value of the Least Performing Index is less than its Initial Value. Accordingly, under
these circumstances, you will lose more than 30.00% of your principal amount at maturity and could lose all of your principal amount at
maturity.
| · | THE NOTES DO NOT GUARANTEE THE PAYMENT OF INTEREST AND MAY NOT PAY ANY INTEREST AT ALL — |
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 on that Review Date is greater
than or equal to its Interest Barrier. If the closing level of any Index on that Review Date is less than its Interest Barrier, no Contingent
Interest Payment will be made with respect to that Review Date. Accordingly, if the closing level of any Index on each Review Date is
less than its Interest Barrier, you will not receive any interest payments over the term of the notes.
PS-5
| Structured Investments
Callable Contingent Interest Notes Linked to the Least Performing
of the Russell 2000® Index, the Nasdaq-100 Index® and the S&P 500® Index |
|
| · | CREDIT RISKS OF JPMORGAN FINANCIAL AND JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. — |
Investors are dependent on our and JPMorgan
Chase & Co.’s ability to pay all amounts due on the notes. Any actual or potential change in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s
creditworthiness or credit spreads, as determined by the market for taking that credit risk, is likely to adversely affect the value of
the notes. If we and JPMorgan Chase & Co. were to default on our payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed
to you under the notes and you could lose your entire investment.
| · | AS A FINANCE SUBSIDIARY, JPMORGAN FINANCIAL HAS NO INDEPENDENT OPERATIONS AND HAS LIMITED ASSETS — |
As a finance subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co.,
we have no independent operations beyond the issuance and administration of our securities and the collection of intercompany obligations.
Aside from the initial capital contribution from JPMorgan Chase & Co., substantially all of our assets relate to obligations
of JPMorgan Chase & Co. to make payments under loans made by us to JPMorgan Chase & Co. or under other intercompany
agreements. As a result, we are dependent upon payments from JPMorgan Chase & Co. to meet our obligations under the notes.
We are not a key operating subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. and in a bankruptcy or resolution of JPMorgan Chase & Co.
we are not expected to have sufficient resources to meet our obligations in respect of the notes as they come due. If JPMorgan Chase & Co.
does not make payments to us and we are unable to make payments on the notes, you may have to seek payment under the related guarantee
by JPMorgan Chase & Co., and that guarantee will rank pari passu with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations
of JPMorgan Chase & Co. For more information, see the accompanying prospectus addendum.
| · | 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.
| · | YOU ARE EXPOSED TO THE RISK OF DECLINE IN THE LEVEL OF EACH INDEX — |
Payments on the notes are not linked to a basket
composed of the Indices and are contingent upon the performance of each individual Index. Poor performance by 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.
| · | YOUR PAYMENT AT MATURITY WILL BE DETERMINED BY THE LEAST PERFORMING INDEX. |
| · | THE BENEFIT PROVIDED BY THE TRIGGER VALUE MAY TERMINATE ON THE FINAL REVIEW DATE — |
If the Final Value of any Index is less than
its Trigger Value and the notes have not been redeemed early, the benefit provided by the Trigger Value will terminate and you will be
fully exposed to any depreciation of the Least Performing Index.
| · | THE OPTIONAL EARLY REDEMPTION FEATURE MAY FORCE A POTENTIAL EARLY EXIT — |
If we elect to redeem your notes early, the
term of the notes may be reduced to as short as approximately six months and you will not receive any Contingent Interest Payments after
the 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. Even in cases where we elect to redeem
your notes before maturity, you are not entitled to any fees and commissions described on the front cover of this pricing supplement.
| · | YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE DIVIDENDS ON THE SECURITIES INCLUDED IN ANY INDEX OR HAVE ANY RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO THOSE SECURITIES. |
| · | THE RISK OF THE CLOSING LEVEL OF AN INDEX FALLING BELOW ITS INTEREST BARRIER OR TRIGGER VALUE IS GREATER IF THE LEVEL OF THAT INDEX
IS VOLATILE. |
The notes will not be listed on any securities
exchange. Accordingly, the price at which you may be able to trade your notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which JPMS
is willing to buy the notes. You may not be able to sell your notes. The notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments.
Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your notes to maturity.
| · | THE FINAL TERMS AND VALUATION OF THE NOTES WILL BE PROVIDED IN THE PRICING SUPPLEMENT — |
You should consider your potential investment
in the notes based on the minimums for the estimated value of the notes and the Contingent Interest Rate.

Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest
We and our affiliates play a variety of roles
in connection with the notes. In performing these duties, our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s economic interests are potentially
adverse to your interests as an investor in the notes. It is possible that hedging or trading activities of ours or our affiliates in
connection with the notes could result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value of the notes declines. Please refer
to “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest” in the accompanying product supplement.
Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary
Market Prices of the Notes
| · | THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES 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 —
|
See “The Estimated Value of the Notes”
in this pricing supplement.
| · | THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES IS DERIVED BY REFERENCE TO AN INTERNAL FUNDING RATE — |
The internal funding rate used in the determination
of the estimated value of the notes may differ from the market-implied funding rate for vanilla fixed income instruments of a similar
maturity issued by JPMorgan Chase & Co. or its affiliates. Any difference may be based on, among other things, our and our
affiliates’ view of the funding value of the notes as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability management
costs of the notes in comparison to those costs for the conventional fixed income instruments of JPMorgan Chase & Co. This
internal funding rate is based on certain market inputs and assumptions, which may prove to be incorrect, and is intended to approximate
the prevailing market replacement funding rate for the notes. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential changes to that rate
may have an adverse effect on the terms of the notes and any secondary market prices of the notes. See “The Estimated Value of the
Notes” in this pricing supplement.
| · | THE VALUE OF THE NOTES AS PUBLISHED BY JPMS (AND WHICH MAY BE REFLECTED ON CUSTOMER ACCOUNT STATEMENTS) MAY BE HIGHER THAN THE
THEN-CURRENT ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES FOR A LIMITED TIME PERIOD — |
We generally expect that some of the costs included
in the original issue price of the notes will be partially paid back to you in connection with any repurchases of your notes by JPMS in
an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period. See “Secondary Market Prices of the Notes” in this
pricing supplement for additional information relating to this initial period. Accordingly, the estimated value of your notes during this
initial period may be lower than the value of the notes as published by JPMS (and which may be shown on your customer account statements).
| · | SECONDARY MARKET PRICES OF THE NOTES WILL LIKELY BE LOWER THAN THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE OF THE NOTES — |
Any secondary market prices of the notes will
likely be lower than the original issue price of the notes because, among other things, secondary market prices take into account our
internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances and, also, because secondary market prices may exclude selling commissions,
projected hedging profits, if any, and estimated hedging costs that are included in the original issue price of the notes. As a result,
the price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to buy the notes from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, is likely to be
lower than the original issue price. Any sale by you prior to the Maturity Date could result in a substantial loss to you.
| · | SECONDARY MARKET PRICES OF THE NOTES WILL BE IMPACTED BY MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS — |
The secondary market price of the notes during
their term will be impacted by a number of economic and market factors, which may either offset or magnify each other, aside from the
selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, estimated hedging costs and the levels of the Indices. Additionally, independent
pricing vendors and/or third party broker-dealers may publish a price for the notes, which may also be reflected on customer account statements.
This price may be different (higher or lower) than the price of the notes, if any, at which JPMS may be willing to purchase your notes
in the secondary market. See “Risk Factors —

| · | JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. IS CURRENTLY ONE OF THE COMPANIES THAT MAKE UP THE S&P 500® INDEX, |
but JPMorgan Chase & Co. will
not have any obligation to consider your interests in taking any corporate action that might affect the level of the 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.
| · | NON-U.S. SECURITIES RISK WITH RESPECT TO THE NASDAQ-100 INDEX® — |
Some of the equity securities included in the
Nasdaq-100 Index® have been issued by non-U.S. companies. Investments in securities linked to the value of such non-U.S.
equity securities involve risks associated with the home countries of the issuers of those non-U.S. equity securities.

The Indices
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 Nasdaq-100 Index® is a modified
market capitalization-weighted index of 100 of the largest non-financial securities listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market based on market
capitalization. For additional information about the Nasdaq-100 Index®, see “Equity Index Descriptions — The
Nasdaq-100 Index®” in the accompanying underlying supplement.
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.
Historical Information
The following graphs set forth the historical performance
of each Index based on the weekly historical closing levels from January 4, 2019 through August 30, 2024. The closing level of the Russell
2000® Index on September 4, 2024 was 2,145.219. The closing level of the Nasdaq-100 Index® on September

Tax Treatment
You should review carefully the section entitled “Material
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement no. 4-I. In determining our reporting responsibilities
we intend to treat (i) the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid forward contracts with associated contingent coupons
and (ii) any Contingent Interest Payments as ordinary income, as described in the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income
Tax Consequences — Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders — Notes Treated as Prepaid Forward Contracts with Associated Contingent
Coupons” in the accompanying product supplement. Based on the advice of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, our special tax counsel,
we believe that this is a reasonable treatment, but that there are other reasonable treatments that the IRS or a court may adopt, in which
case the timing and character of any income or loss on the notes could be materially affected. In addition, in 2007 Treasury and the IRS
released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar
instruments. The notice focuses in particular on whether to require investors in these instruments to accrue income over the term of their
investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments
and the relevance of factors such as the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked. While the notice requests
comments on appropriate transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration
of these issues could materially affect the tax consequences of an investment in the notes, possibly with retroactive effect. 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), it
is expected that withholding agents will (and we, if we are the withholding agent, intend to) withhold on any Contingent Interest Payment
paid to a Non-U.S. Holder generally at a rate of 30% or at a reduced rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty under an “other
income” or similar provision. We will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts withheld.
In order to claim an exemption from, or a reduction in, the 30% withholding tax, a Non-U.S. Holder of the notes must comply with certification
requirements to establish that it is not a U.S. person and is eligible for such an exemption or reduction under an applicable tax treaty.
If you are a Non-U.S. Holder, you should consult your tax adviser regarding the tax treatment of the notes, including the possibility
of obtaining a refund of any withholding tax and the certification requirement described above.
Section 871(m) of the Code and Treasury regulations
promulgated thereunder (“Section 871(m)”) generally impose a 30% withholding tax (unless an income tax treaty applies) on
dividend equivalents paid or deemed paid to Non-U.S. Holders with respect to certain financial instruments linked to U.S. equities or
indices that include U.S. equities. Section 871(m) provides certain exceptions to this withholding regime, including for instruments linked
to certain broad-based indices that meet requirements set forth in the applicable Treasury regulations. Additionally, a recent IRS notice
excludes from the scope of Section 871(m) instruments issued prior to January 1, 2027 that do not have a delta of one with respect to
underlying securities that could pay U.S.-source dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes (each an “Underlying Security”).
Based on certain determinations made by us, 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.
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.
The Estimated
Value of the Notes
The estimated value of the notes set forth on the
cover of this pricing supplement is equal to the sum of the values of the following hypothetical components: (1) a fixed-income debt component
with the same maturity as the notes, valued using the internal funding rate described below, and (2) the derivative or derivatives underlying
the economic terms of the notes. The estimated value of the notes does not represent a minimum price at which JPMS would be willing to
buy your notes in any secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated
value of the notes may differ from the market-implied funding rate for vanilla fixed income instruments of a similar maturity issued by
JPMorgan Chase & Co. or its affiliates. Any difference may be based on, among other things, our and our affiliates’
view of the funding value of the notes as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability management costs of the notes
in comparison to those costs for the conventional fixed income instruments of JPMorgan Chase & Co. This internal funding
rate is based on certain market inputs and assumptions, which may prove to be incorrect, and is intended to approximate the prevailing
market replacement funding rate for the notes. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential changes to that rate may have an
adverse effect on the terms of the notes and any secondary market prices of the notes. For additional information, see “Selected
Risk Considerations — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — The Estimated Value
of the Notes Is Derived by Reference to an Internal Funding Rate” in this pricing supplement.
The value of the derivative or derivatives underlying
the economic terms of the notes is derived from internal pricing models of our affiliates. These models are dependent on inputs such as
the traded market prices of comparable derivative instruments and on various other inputs, some of which are market-observable, and which
can include volatility, dividend rates, interest rates and other factors, as well as assumptions about future market events and/or environments.
Accordingly, the estimated value of the notes is determined when the terms of the notes are set based on market conditions and other relevant
factors and assumptions existing at that time.
The estimated value of the notes does not represent
future values of the notes and may differ from others’ estimates. Different pricing models and assumptions could provide valuations
for the notes that are greater than or less than the estimated value of the notes. In addition, market conditions and other relevant factors
in the future may change, and any assumptions may prove to be incorrect. On future dates, the value of the notes could change significantly
based on, among other things, changes in market conditions, our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s creditworthiness, interest
rate movements and other relevant factors, which may impact the price, if any, at which JPMS would be willing to buy notes from you in
secondary market transactions.
The estimated value of the notes 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. A portion
of the profits, if any, realized in hedging our obligations under the notes may be allowed to other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers,
and we or one or more of our affiliates will retain any remaining hedging profits. See “Selected Risk Considerations — Risks
Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — The Estimated Value of the Notes 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 “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices
of the Notes — Secondary market prices of the notes will be impacted by many economic and market factors” in the accompanying
product supplement. In addition, we generally expect that some of the costs included in the original issue price of the notes will be
partially paid back to you in connection with any repurchases of your notes by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial
predetermined period. These costs can include selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, and, in some circumstances, estimated
hedging costs and our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances. This initial predetermined time period is
intended to be the shorter of six months and one-half of the stated term of the notes. The length of any such initial period reflects
the structure of the notes, whether our affiliates expect to earn a profit in connection with our hedging activities, the estimated costs
of hedging the notes and when these costs are incurred, as determined by our affiliates. See “Selected Risk Considerations —
Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — The Value of the Notes as Published by JPMS (and
Which May Be Reflected on Customer Account Statements) May Be Higher Than the Then-Current Estimated Value of the Notes for a Limited
Time Period” in this pricing supplement.
Supplemental
Use of Proceeds
The notes are offered to meet investor demand for products
that reflect the risk-return profile and market exposure provided by the notes. See “How the Notes Work” and “Hypothetical
Payout Examples” in this pricing supplement for an illustration of the risk-return profile of the notes and “The Indices”
in this pricing supplement for a description of the market exposure provided by the notes.
The original issue price of the notes is equal to the
estimated value of the notes plus the 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.
Additional
Terms Specific to the Notes
You may revoke your offer to purchase the notes at
any time prior to the time at which we accept such offer by notifying the applicable agent. We reserve the right to change the terms of,
or reject any offer to purchase, the notes prior to their issuance. In the event of any changes to the terms of the notes, we will notify
you and you will be asked to accept such changes in connection with your purchase. You may also choose to reject such changes, in which
case we may reject your offer to purchase.
You should read this pricing supplement together with
the accompanying prospectus, as supplemented by the accompanying prospectus supplement relating to our Series A medium-term notes of which
these notes are a part, the accompanying prospectus addendum and the more detailed information contained in the accompanying product supplement
and the accompanying underlying supplement. This pricing supplement, together with the documents listed below, contains the terms of the
notes and supersedes all other prior or contemporaneous oral statements as well as any other written materials including preliminary or
indicative pricing terms, correspondence, trade ideas, structures for implementation, sample structures, fact sheets, brochures or other
educational materials of ours. You should carefully consider, among other things, the matters set forth in the “Risk Factors”
sections of the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying product supplement and in Annex A to the accompanying prospectus
addendum, as the notes involve risks not associated with conventional debt securities. We urge you to consult your investment, legal,
tax, accounting and other advisers before you invest in the notes.
