Structured Investments
$273,000
Auto Callable Contingent Interest Notes Linked to the Lesser
Performing of the NASDAQ-100 Index® and the S&P
500® Index due April 3, 2024
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 NASDAQ-100 Index® and the
S&P 500® Index, which we refer to as the Indices, is
greater than or equal to 70.00% of its Initial Value, which we
refer to as an Interest Barrier. |
|
● |
The notes will be automatically called if the closing level of
each Index on any Review Date (other than the first through
eleventh and final Review Dates) is greater than or equal to its
Initial Value. |
|
● |
The earliest date on which an automatic call may be initiated
is June 28, 2023. |
|
● |
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. |
|
● |
Payments on the notes are not linked to a basket composed of
the Indices. Payments on the notes are linked to the performance of
each of the Indices individually, as described below. |
|
● |
Minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples
thereof |
|
● |
The notes priced on June 28, 2022 and are expected to settle on

Automatic Call:
If the closing level of each
Index on any Review Date (other than the first through eleventh and
final Review Dates) is greater than or equal to its Initial Value,
the notes will be automatically called for a cash payment, for each
$1,000 principal amount note, equal to (a) $1,000 plus (b)
the Contingent Interest Payment applicable to that Review Date,
payable on the applicable Call Settlement Date. No further payments
will be made on the notes.
Payment at Maturity:
If the notes have not been
automatically called 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 automatically called and the Final Value of either
Index is less than its Trigger Value, your payment at maturity per
$1,000 principal amount note will be calculated as
follows:
$1,000 +
($1,000 × Lesser Performing Index Return)
If the notes have not been
automatically called and the Final Value of either 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
two hypothetical Indices, assuming a range of performances for the
hypothetical Lesser Performing Index on the Review Dates. Each
hypothetical payment set forth below assumes that the closing level
of the Index that is not the Lesser Performing Index on each Review
Date is greater than or equal to its Initial Value (and therefore
its Interest Barrier and Trigger Value).
In addition, the hypothetical payments set forth below assume the
following:
|
● |
an Initial Value for the Lesser Performing Index of
100.00; |
|
● |
an Interest Barrier and a Trigger Value for the Lesser
Performing Index of 70.00 (equal to 70.00% of its hypothetical
Initial Value); and |
|
● |
a Contingent Interest Rate of 8.70% per annum (payable at a
rate of 0.725% per month). |
The hypothetical Initial Value of the Lesser
Performing Index of 100.00 has been chosen for illustrative
purposes only and does not represent the actual Initial Value of
either Index.
The actual Initial Value of each Index
is the closing level of that
Index on the Pricing Date and is specified under “Key Terms
- Initial Value” in this pricing supplement. For historical data
regarding the actual closing levels of each
Index, please see the historical information set forth under
“The Indices” in this pricing supplement.
Each hypothetical 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.

Auto Callable Contingent Interest Notes Linked to the Lesser
Performing of the NASDAQ-100 Index® and the S&P

|
 |
Example 1 — Notes are automatically called on the twelfth Review
Date.
Date |
Closing Level of Lesser
Performing Index |
Payment (per $1,000 principal amount note) |
First Review Date |
105.00 |
$7.25 |
Second Review Date |

$7.25 |
Third through Eleventh Review Dates |
Greater than Interest Barrier |
$7.25 |
Twelfth Review Date |
110.00 |
$1,007.25 |
|
Total Payment |
$1,087.00 (8.70% return) |
Because the closing level of each Index on the twelfth Review Date
is greater than or equal to its Initial Value, the notes will be
automatically called for a cash payment, for each $1,000 principal
amount note, of $1,007.25 (or $1,000 plus the Contingent
Interest Payment applicable to the twelfth Review Date), payable on
the applicable Call Settlement Date. The notes are not
automatically callable before the twelfth Review Date, even though
the closing level of each Index on each of the first through
eleventh Review Dates is greater than its Initial Value. 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 $1,087.00. No further payments will be
made on the notes.
Example 2 — Notes have NOT been automatically called and the
Final Value of the Lesser Performing Index is greater than or equal
to its Trigger Value.
Date |
Closing Level of Lesser
Performing Index |
Payment (per $1,000 principal amount note) |
First Review Date |
95.00 |
$7.25 |
Second Review Date |
85.00 |
$7.25 |
Third through Twentieth Review Dates |
Less than Interest Barrier |
$0 |
Final Review Date |
90.00 |
$1,007.25 |
|
Total Payment |
$1,021.75 (2.175% return) |
Because the notes have not been automatically called and the Final
Value of the Lesser Performing Index is greater than or equal to
its Trigger Value, the payment at maturity, for each $1,000
principal amount note, will be $1,007.25 (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 $1,021.75.
Example 3 — Notes have NOT been automatically called and the
Final Value of the Lesser Performing Index is less than its Trigger
Value.
Date |
Closing
Level of Lesser
Performing Index |
Payment
(per $1,000 principal amount note) |
First Review Date |
60.00 |

Second Review Date |
65.00 |
$0 |
Third through Twentieth Review Dates |
Less than Interest Barrier |
$0 |
Final Review Date |
60.00 |
$600.00 |
|
Total Payment |
$600.00 (-40.00% return) |
Because the notes have not been automatically called, the Final
Value of the Lesser Performing Index is less than its Trigger Value
and the Lesser Performing Index Return
is -40.00%, the payment at maturity will be $600.00 per
$1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:
$1,000 + [$1,000 × (-40.00%)] = $600.00
The hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments on the notes
shown above apply only if you hold the notes for their entire
term or until automatically called. These hypotheticals do not
reflect the fees or expenses that would be associated with any sale
in the secondary market. If these fees and expenses were included,
the hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments shown above
would likely be lower.

Selected Risk Considerations
An
investment in the notes involves significant risks. These risks are
explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” sections of the
accompanying prospectus supplement, product supplement and
underlying supplement.
|
● |
YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS —
The notes do not guarantee any return of principal. If the notes
have not been automatically called and the Final Value of either
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 Lesser 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 automatically called, 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 either
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 either Index on
each Review Date is 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. —
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 APPRECIATION POTENTIAL OF THE NOTES IS LIMITED TO THE
SUM OF ANY CONTINGENT INTEREST PAYMENTS THAT MAY BE PAID OVER THE
TERM OF THE NOTES,
regardless of any appreciation of either Index, which may be
significant. You will not participate in any appreciation of either
Index. |
|
● |
POTENTIAL CONFLICTS —
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. |
|
● |
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. |
|
● |
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
securities markets in the home countries of the issuers of those
non-U.S. equity securities. 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. |
|
● |
YOU ARE EXPOSED TO THE RISK OF DECLINE IN THE LEVEL OF EACH
INDEX—
Payments on the notes are not linked to a basket composed of the
Indices and are contingent upon the performance of each individual
Index. Poor performance by either of the Indices over the term of
the notes may result in the notes not being automatically called on
a Review Date, may negatively affect whether you will receive a
Contingent Interest Payment on any Interest Payment Date and your
payment at maturity and will not be offset or mitigated by positive
performance by the other Index. |
|
● |
YOUR PAYMENT AT MATURITY WILL BE DETERMINED BY THE LESSER
PERFORMING INDEX. |
|
● |
THE BENEFIT PROVIDED BY THE TRIGGER VALUE MAY TERMINATE ON
THE FINAL REVIEW DATE—
If the Final Value of either Index is less than its Trigger Value
and the notes have not been automatically called, the benefit
provided by the Trigger Value will terminate and you will be fully
exposed to any depreciation of
the Lesser Performing Index. |
|
● |
THE AUTOMATIC CALL FEATURE MAY FORCE A POTENTIAL EARLY EXIT
—
If your notes are automatically called, the term of the notes may
be reduced to as short as approximately one year and you will not
receive any Contingent Interest Payments after the applicable Call
Settlement Date. There is no guarantee that you would be able to
reinvest the proceeds from an investment in the notes at a
comparable return and/or with a comparable interest rate for a
similar level of risk. Even in cases where the notes are called
before maturity, you are not entitled to any fees and commissions
described on the front cover of this pricing supplement. |

|

|
● |
YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE DIVIDENDS ON THE SECURITIES INCLUDED IN
EITHER INDEX OR HAVE ANY RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO THOSE
SECURITIES. |
|
● |
THE RISK OF THE CLOSING LEVEL OF AN INDEX FALLING BELOW ITS
INTEREST BARRIER OR TRIGGER VALUE IS GREATER IF THE LEVEL OF THAT
INDEX IS VOLATILE. |
|
● |
LACK OF LIQUIDITY—
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 ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES IS LOWER THAN THE ORIGINAL
ISSUE PRICE (PRICE TO PUBLIC) OF THE NOTES —
The estimated value of the notes is only an estimate determined by
reference to several factors. The original issue price of the notes
exceeds the estimated value of the notes because costs associated
with selling, structuring and hedging the notes are included in the
original issue price of the notes. These costs include the selling
commissions, the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates
expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our
obligations under the notes and the estimated cost of hedging our
obligations under the notes. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes”
in this pricing supplement. |
|
● |
THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES DOES NOT REPRESENT FUTURE
VALUES OF THE NOTES AND MAY DIFFER FROM OTHERS’ ESTIMATES —
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 —
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. |

Historical Information
The following graphs set forth the historical performance of each
Index based on the weekly historical closing levels from January 6,
2017 through June 24, 2022. The closing level of the NASDAQ-100
Index® on June 28, 2022 was 11,637.77. The closing level
of the S&P 500® Index on June 28, 2022 was 3,821.55.

Tax Treatment
You should review carefully the section entitled “Material U.S.
Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product
supplement no. 4-II. 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), 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. Additionally, a recent IRS notice
excludes from the scope of Section 871(m) instruments issued prior
to January 1, 2023 that do not have a delta of one with respect to
underlying securities that could pay U.S.-source dividends for U.S.
federal income tax purposes (each an “Underlying Security”). Based
on certain determinations made by us, our special tax counsel is of
the opinion that Section 871(m) should not apply to the notes with
regard to Non-U.S. Holders. Our determination is not binding on the
IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this determination. Section
871(m) is complex and its application may depend on your particular
circumstances, including whether you enter into other transactions
with respect to an Underlying Security. You should consult your tax
adviser regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) to
the notes.
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 — The Estimated Value of the Notes Is Derived by
Reference to an Internal Funding Rate” in this pricing
supplement.

The value of the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic
terms of the notes is derived from internal pricing models of our
affiliates. These models are dependent on inputs such as the traded
market prices of comparable derivative instruments and on various
other inputs, some of which are market-observable, and which can
include volatility, dividend rates, interest rates and other
factors, as well as assumptions about future market events and/or
environments. Accordingly, the estimated value of the notes is
determined when the terms of the notes are set based on market
conditions and other relevant factors and assumptions existing at
that time.
The estimated value of the notes does not represent future values
of the notes and may differ from others’ estimates. Different
pricing models and assumptions could provide valuations for the
notes that are greater than or less than the estimated value of the
notes. In addition, market conditions and other relevant factors in
the future may change, and any assumptions may prove to be
incorrect. On future dates, the value of the notes could change
significantly based on, among other things, changes in market
conditions, our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s creditworthiness,
interest rate movements and other relevant factors, which may
impact the price, if any, at which JPMS would be willing to buy
notes from you in secondary market transactions.
The estimated value of the notes is lower than the original issue
price of the notes because costs associated with 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 — The Estimated Value of the Notes Is Lower
Than the Original Issue Price (Price to Public) of the Notes” in
this pricing supplement.
Secondary Market Prices of the Notes
For information about factors that will impact any secondary market
prices of the notes, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the
Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes —
Secondary market prices of the notes will be impacted by many
economic and market factors” in the accompanying product
supplement. In addition, we generally expect that some of the costs
included in the original issue price of the notes will be partially
paid back to you in connection with any repurchases of your notes
by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial
predetermined period. These costs can include 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 — 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.
Supplemental Plan of Distribution
We expect that delivery of the notes will be made against payment
for the notes on or about the Original Issue Date set forth on the
front cover of this pricing supplement, which will be the third
business day following the Pricing Date of the notes (this
settlement cycle being referred to as “T+3”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the
secondary market generally are required to settle in two business
days, unless the parties to that trade expressly agree otherwise.
Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on any date prior
to two business days before delivery will be required to specify an
alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent
a failed settlement and should consult their own advisors.
Supplemental Information About the Form of the Notes
The notes will initially be represented by a type of global
security that we refer to as a master note. A master note
represents multiple securities that may be issued at different
times and that may have different terms. The trustee and/or
paying agent will, in accordance with instructions from us, make
appropriate entries or notations in its records relating to the
master note representing the notes to indicate that the master note
evidences the notes.
