Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase &
Co.
The PLUS will pay no interest and do not guarantee any return of your
principal at maturity. At maturity, if the ETF Shares have increased in price, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their
investment plus leveraged upside performance of the ETF Shares, subject to a maximum payment at maturity. However, if the ETF Shares have
decreased in price, at maturity investors will lose 1% for every 1% decline. The PLUS are for investors who seek an equity-based return
and who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income and upside above the maximum payment at maturity in exchange for
the leverage feature that applies to a limited range of positive performance of the ETF Shares. The PLUS are unsecured and unsubordinated
obligations of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, which we refer to as JPMorgan Financial, the payment on which is fully and unconditionally
guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., issued as part of JPMorgan Financial’s Medium-Term Notes, Series A, program. Any payment
on the PLUS is subject to the credit risk of JPMorgan Financial, as issuer of the PLUS, and the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase & Co.,
as guarantor of the PLUS. The investor may lose some or all of the stated principal amount of the PLUS.

Key Investment Rationale
PLUS offer leveraged exposure to an underlying asset, which may
be equities, commodities and/or currencies, without any protection against negative performance of the underlying asset. If the underlying
asset has decreased in value, investors are fully exposed to the negative performance of the underlying asset. At maturity, if the underlying
asset has appreciated, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment plus leveraged upside performance of the
underlying asset, subject to the maximum payment at maturity. At maturity, if the underlying asset has depreciated, the investor will
lose 1% for every 1% decline. Investors may lose some or all of the stated principal amount of the PLUS.
Leveraged Performance |
The PLUS offer investors an opportunity to capture enhanced returns for a certain range of positive performance relative to a direct investment in the ETF Shares. |
Upside Scenario |
The ETF Shares increase in price and, at maturity, the PLUS pay the stated principal amount of $10 plus a return equal to 300% of the share percent increase, subject to the maximum payment at maturity of $12.30 (123.00% of the stated principal amount) per PLUS. |
Par Scenario |
The final share price is equal to the initial share price and, at maturity, the PLUS pay the stated principal amount of $10 per PLUS. |
Downside Scenario |
The ETF Shares decline in price and, at maturity, the PLUS pay an amount that is less than the stated principal amount by an amount that is proportionate to the percentage decline of the final share price from the initial share price. (Example: if the ETF Shares decrease in price by 20%, the PLUS will pay an amount that is less than the stated principal amount by 20%, or $8 per PLUS.) |

|
How it works
| § | Upside
Scenario. If the final share price is greater than the initial share price, for each $10 principal amount PLUS, investors
will receive the $10 stated principal amount plus a return equal to 300% of the appreciation of the ETF Shares over the term of
the PLUS, subject to the maximum payment at maturity. Under the terms of the PLUS, an investor will realize the maximum payment at maturity
at a final share price of approximately 107.667% of the initial share price. |
| § | Par
Scenario. If the final share price is equal to the initial share price, investors will receive the stated principal amount
of $10 per PLUS. |
| § | Downside
Scenario. If the final share price is less than the initial share price, investors will receive an amount that is less than
the stated principal amount by an amount proportionate to the percentage decrease of the final share price from the initial share price. |
| § | For example, if the ETF Shares depreciate 50%, investors will lose 50% of their principal and receive only $5 per PLUS at maturity,
or 50% of the stated principal amount. |
The hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments
on the PLUS shown above apply only if you hold the PLUS 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 returns and
hypothetical payments shown above would likely be lower.

Risk Factors
The following
is a non-exhaustive list of certain key risk factors for investors in the PLUS. For further discussion of these and other
risks, you should read the sections entitled “Risk Factors” of the accompanying prospectus supplement, the accompanying product
supplement and the accompanying underlying supplement. We urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers
in connection with your investment in the PLUS.
Risks Relating to the
PLUS Generally
| § | The PLUS do not pay interest or guarantee the return of any principal and
your investment in the PLUS may result in a loss. The terms of the PLUS differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that
the PLUS do not pay interest or guarantee the payment of any principal amount at maturity. If the final share price is less than the initial
share price, the payment at maturity will be an amount in cash that is less than the stated principal amount of each PLUS by an amount
proportionate to the decrease in the price of the ETF Shares and may be zero. |
| § | The appreciation potential of the PLUS is limited by the maximum payment
at maturity. The appreciation potential of the PLUS is limited by the maximum payment at maturity
of $12.30 (123.00% of the stated principal amount) per PLUS. Because the maximum payment at maturity will be limited to 123.00% of the
stated principal amount for the PLUS, any increase in the final share price by more than approximately 7.667% will not further increase
the return on the PLUS. |
| § | The PLUS are subject to the credit risks of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co., and any actual or anticipated changes
to our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s credit ratings or credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the PLUS. Investors
are dependent on our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s ability to pay all amounts due on the PLUS. Any actual or anticipated decline
in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s credit ratings or increase in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s credit spreads determined
by the market for taking that credit risk is likely to adversely affect the market value of the PLUS. If we and JPMorgan Chase & Co.
were to default on our payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the PLUS 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 PLUS. If these affiliates do not make payments to
us and we fail to make payments on the PLUS, 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. |
| § | Secondary trading may be limited. The
PLUS will not be listed on a securities exchange. There may be little or no secondary market for the PLUS. Even if there is a secondary
market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the PLUS easily.
JPMS may act as a market maker for the PLUS, but is not required to do so. Because we do not expect that other market makers will
participate significantly in the secondary market for the PLUS, the price at which you may be able to trade your PLUS is likely to depend
on the price, if any, at which JPMS is willing to
buy the PLUS. If at any time JPMS or another agent
does not act as a market maker, it is likely that there would be little or no secondary market for the PLUS. |
| § | The tax consequences of an investment in the PLUS are uncertain. There is no direct legal authority as to the proper U.S. federal
income tax characterization of the PLUS, and we do not intend to request a ruling from the IRS. The IRS might not accept, and a court
might not uphold, the treatment of the PLUS described in “Additional Information about the PLUS ― Additional Provisions ―
Tax considerations” in this document and in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product
supplement. If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the PLUS, the timing and character of any income or loss
on the PLUS could differ materially and adversely from our description herein. |
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC
PLUS Based on the Performance of the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF due December 5, 2023
Performance Leveraged Upside SecuritiesSM
Principal at Risk Securities
Even if the treatment of the PLUS is respected,
the IRS may assert that the PLUS constitute “constructive ownership transactions” within the meaning of Section 1260 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), in which case any gain recognized in respect of the PLUS that would
otherwise be long-term capital gain and that is in excess of the “net underlying long-term capital gain” (as defined in Section
1260) would be treated as ordinary income, and a notional interest charge would apply as if that income had accrued for tax purposes at
a constant yield over the term of the PLUS. Our special tax counsel has not expressed an opinion with respect to whether the constructive
ownership rules apply to the PLUS.
In addition, in 2007 Treasury and the IRS
released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar
instruments. The notice focuses in particular on whether to require investors in these instruments to accrue income over the term of their
investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments;
the relevance of factors such as the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which
income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these instruments
are or should be subject to the constructive ownership regime described above. While the notice requests comments on appropriate transition
rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially
and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the PLUS, possibly with retroactive effect.
You should review carefully the section
entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement and consult your tax adviser
regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the PLUS, including the potential application of the constructive
ownership rules, possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by this notice.
Risks Relating to Conflicts
of Interest
| § | Economic interests of the issuer, the guarantor, the calculation agent, the agent of the offering of the PLUS and other affiliates
of the issuer may be different from those of investors. We and our affiliates play a variety
of roles in connection with the issuance of the PLUS, including acting as calculation agent and as an agent of the offering of the PLUS,
hedging our obligations under the PLUS and making the assumptions used to determine the pricing of the PLUS and the estimated value of
the PLUS, which we refer to as the estimated value of the PLUS. 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 PLUS. The calculation agent has determined the initial share price, will determine the final share price and will calculate
the amount of payment you will receive at maturity, if any. Determinations made by the calculation agent, including with respect to the
occurrence or non-occurrence of market disruption events, the selection of a successor to the ETF Shares or calculation of the final share
price in the event of a discontinuation of the ETF Shares, and any anti-dilution adjustments, may affect the payment to you at maturity.
|
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 PLUS and the
value of the PLUS. It is possible that hedging or trading activities of ours or our affiliates in connection with the PLUS could result
in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value of the PLUS declines. Please refer to “Risk Factors — Risks
Relating to Conflicts of Interest” in the accompanying product supplement for additional information about these risks.
| § | Hedging and trading activities by the issuer and its affiliates could potentially affect the value of the PLUS.
The hedging or trading activities of the issuer’s affiliates and of any other hedging counterparty with respect to the PLUS
on or prior to the pricing date and prior to maturity could have adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, the value of
the ETF Shares, and, as a result, could decrease the amount an investor may receive on the PLUS at maturity, if any. Any of these hedging
or trading activities on or prior to the pricing date could have affected the initial share price and, therefore, could potentially increase
the level that the final share price must reach before you receive a payment at maturity that exceeds the issue price of the PLUS or so
that you do not suffer a loss on your initial investment in the PLUS. Additionally, these hedging or trading activities during the term
of the PLUS, including on the valuation date, could adversely affect the final share price and, accordingly, the payment to you at maturity,
if any. It is possible that these hedging or trading activities could result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the
value of the PLUS declines. |

Risks Relating to the
Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the PLUS
| § | The estimated value of the PLUS is lower than the original issue price
(price to public) of the PLUS. The estimated value of the PLUS is only an estimate determined by
reference to several factors. The original issue price of the PLUS exceeds the estimated value of the PLUS because costs associated with
selling, structuring and hedging the PLUS are included in the original issue price of the PLUS. These costs include the selling commissions,
the structuring fee, the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations
under the PLUS and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the PLUS. See “Additional Information about the PLUS —
The estimated value of the PLUS” in this document. |
| § | The estimated value of the PLUS does not represent future values of the
PLUS and may differ from others’ estimates. The estimated value of the PLUS is determined by reference to internal pricing models
of our affiliates. This estimated value of the PLUS is based on market conditions and other relevant
factors existing at the time of pricing and assumptions about market parameters, which can include volatility, dividend rates, interest
rates and other factors. Different pricing models and assumptions could provide valuations for the PLUS that are greater than or less
than the estimated value of the PLUS. 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 PLUS 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 PLUS from you in secondary market transactions. See “Additional
Information about the PLUS — The estimated value of the PLUS” in this document. |
| § | The estimated value of the PLUS is derived by reference to an internal
funding rate. The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated value of the
PLUS 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 PLUS as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability management costs of the PLUS 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
PLUS. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential changes to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the PLUS and
any secondary market prices of the PLUS. See “Additional Information about the PLUS — The estimated value of the PLUS”
in this document. |
| § | The value of the PLUS as published by JPMS (and which may be reflected
on customer account statements) may be higher than the then-current estimated value of the PLUS for a limited time period. We
generally expect that some of the costs included in the original issue price of the PLUS will be partially paid back to you in connection
with any repurchases of your PLUS by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period. These costs can
include selling commissions, the structuring fee, projected hedging profits, if any, and, in some circumstances, estimated hedging costs
and our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances. See “Additional Information about the PLUS —
Secondary market prices of the PLUS” in this document for additional information relating to this initial period. Accordingly, the
estimated value of your PLUS during this initial period may be lower than the value of the PLUS as published by JPMS (and which may be
shown on your customer account statements). |
| § | Secondary market prices of the PLUS will likely be lower than the original
issue price of the PLUS. Any secondary market prices of the PLUS will likely be lower than the original
issue price of the PLUS 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, the structuring fee, projected
hedging profits, if any, and estimated hedging costs that are included in the original issue price of the PLUS. As a result, the price,
if any, at which JPMS will be willing to buy PLUS from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, is likely to be lower than the
original issue price. Any sale by you prior to the maturity date could result in a substantial loss to you. See the immediately following
risk factor for information about additional factors that will impact any secondary market prices of the PLUS. |
The PLUS are not designed to be short-term
trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your PLUS to maturity. See “— Secondary trading may
be limited” below.

Principal at Risk Securities
| § | Secondary market prices of the PLUS will
be impacted by many economic and market factors. The secondary market price of the PLUS during their term will be impacted
by a number of economic and market factors, which may either offset or magnify each other, aside from the selling commissions, structuring
fee, projected hedging profits, if any, estimated hedging costs and the price of one share of the ETF Shares, 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 of the ETF Shares; |
| § | the time to maturity of the PLUS; |
| § | the dividend rates on the ETF Shares and the equity securities underlying the ETF Shares; |
| § | 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 underlying the ETF Shares trade and the correlation among those rates and the price of one ETF Share; |
| § | the occurrence of certain events to the ETF Shares that may or may not require an adjustment to the share adjustment factor; 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 PLUS, which may also be reflected on customer account statements. This price
may be different (higher or lower) than the price of the PLUS, if any, at which JPMS may be willing to purchase your PLUS in the secondary
market.
Risks Relating to the ETF Shares
| § | Investing in the PLUS is not equivalent to investing in the ETF Shares.
Investing in the PLUS is not equivalent to investing in the ETF Shares, the index tracked by the ETF
Shares, which we refer to as the underlying index, or the stocks underlying the ETF Shares or the underlying index. Investors in the PLUS
will not have voting rights or rights to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the ETF Shares,
the reference index or the stocks held by the ETF Shares or the underlying index. |
| § | Adjustments to the ETF Shares or the underlying index could adversely affect
the value of the PLUS. Those responsible for calculating and maintaining the ETF Shares and the underlying index, can add,
delete or substitute the components of the ETF Shares or the underlying index, or make other methodological changes that could change
the value of the ETF Shares or the underlying index. Any of these actions could adversely affect the price of the ETF Shares and, consequently,
the value of the PLUS. |
| § | There are risks associated with the ETF Shares. Although the ETF Shares are listed for trading on a securities exchange and
a number of similar products have been traded on various securities exchanges for varying periods of time, there is no assurance that
an active trading market will continue for the ETF Shares or that there will be liquidity in the trading market. The ETF Shares are subject
to management risk, which is the risk that the investment strategy of the investment adviser to the ETF Shares, the implementation of
which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. These constraints could adversely affect the market
price of the ETF Shares and, consequently, the value of the PLUS. |
| § | The performance and market value of the ETF Shares, particularly during
periods of market volatility, may not correlate with the performance of the underlying index as well as the net asset value per ETF Share.
The iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF does not fully replicate the underlying index and may hold securities different
from those included in the underlying index. In addition, the performance of the ETF Shares will reflect additional transaction costs
and fees that are not included in the calculation of the underlying index. All of these factors may lead to a lack of correlation between
the performance of the ETF Shares and the underlying index. In addition, corporate actions with respect to the |
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC
PLUS Based on the Performance of the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF due December 5, 2023
Performance Leveraged Upside SecuritiesSM
Principal at Risk Securities
equity securities underlying the ETF Shares (such as mergers
and spin-offs) may impact the variance between the performances of the ETF Shares and the underlying index. Finally, because the ETF Shares
are traded on a securities exchange and are subject to market supply and investor demand, the market value of one ETF Share may differ
from the net asset value per ETF Share.
During periods of market volatility, securities
underlying the ETF Shares may be unavailable in the secondary market, market participants may be unable to calculate accurately the net
asset value per ETF Share and the liquidity of the ETF Shares may be adversely affected. This kind of market volatility may also disrupt
the ability of market participants to create and redeem ETF Shares. Further, market volatility may adversely affect, sometimes materially,
the prices at which market participants are willing to buy and sell ETF Shares. As a result, under these circumstances, the market value
of ETF Shares may vary substantially from the net asset value per ETF Share. For all of the foregoing reasons, the performance of the
ETF Shares may not correlate with the performance of the underlying index as well as its net asset value per ETF Share, which could materially
and adversely affect the value of the securities in the secondary market and/or reduce any payment on the securities.
| § | The PLUS are subject to risks
associated with securities issued by non-U.S. companies. The equity securities underlying the ETF Shares have been issued by non-U.S.
companies. Investments in PLUS 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, and generally non-U.S. companies are subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements and
securities trading rules different from those applicable to U.S. reporting companies. |
| § | The PLUS are subject to currency
exchange risk. Because the prices of the equity securities underlying the ETF Shares are converted into U.S. dollars for the purposes
of calculating the net asset value of the ETF Shares, holders of the PLUS will be exposed to currency exchange rate risk with respect
to the currencies in which securities underlying the ETF Shares are traded. Your net exposure will depend on the extent to which the currencies
in which securities underlying the ETF Shares are traded strengthen or weaken against the U.S. dollar. If the U.S. dollar strengthens
against the currencies in which securities underlying the ETF Shares are traded, the net asset value of the ETF Shares will be adversely
affected and the amount we pay you at maturity may be reduced. Of particular importance to potential currency exchange risk are: |
| o | existing and expected rates of inflation; |
| o | existing and expected interest rate levels; |
| o | the balance of payments in the countries issuing those currencies and the
United States and between each country and its major trading partners; |
| o | political, civil or military unrest in the countries issuing those currencies
and the United States; and |
| o | the extent of government surpluses or deficits in the countries issuing those
currencies and the United States. |
| § | All
of these factors are in turn sensitive to the monetary, fiscal and trade policies pursued by the governments of the countries issuing
those currencies and the United States and other countries important to international trade and finance. |
| § | The PLUS entail emerging markets
risk. The equity securities underlying the ETF Shares have been issued by non-U.S. companies located in emerging markets countries.
Countries with emerging markets may have relatively unstable governments, may present the risks of nationalization of businesses, restrictions
on foreign ownership and prohibitions on the repatriation of assets, and may have less protection of property rights than more developed
countries. The economies of countries with emerging markets may be based on only a few industries, may be highly vulnerable to changes
in local or global trade conditions, and may suffer from extreme and volatile debt burdens or inflation rates. Local securities |

markets may trade a small number of securities and may be unable
to respond effectively to increases in trading volume, potentially making prompt liquidation of holdings difficult or impossible at times.
| § | Recent executive orders may
adversely affect the performance of the ETF Shares. Pursuant to recent executive orders, U.S. persons are prohibited from engaging
in transactions in, or possession of, publicly traded securities of certain companies that are determined to be linked to the People’s
Republic of China military, intelligence and security apparatus, or securities that are derivative of, or are designed to provide investment
exposure to, those securities. The sponsor of the underlying index for the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF has
recently removed the equity securities of a small number of companies from that underlying index in response to these executive orders
and, as a result, these stocks have also been removed from the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF. If the issuer
of any of the equity securities held by the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF is in the future designated as such a prohibited
company, the value of that company may be adversely affected, perhaps significantly, which would adversely affect the performance of the
ETF Shares. In addition, under these circumstances, each of the sponsor of the underlying index for the iShares®
MSCI Emerging Markets ETF and the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF is expected to remove the equity securities of that
company from that underlying index and the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF, respectively. Any changes to the composition
of the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF in response to these executive orders could adversely affect the performance
of the ETF Shares. |
| § | Governmental legislative and
regulatory actions, including sanctions, could adversely affect your investment in the PLUS. Governmental legislative and regulatory
actions, including, without limitation, sanctions-related actions by the U.S. or a foreign government, could prohibit or otherwise restrict
persons from holding the PLUS or the ETF Shares, or engaging in transactions in them, and any such action could adversely affect the value
of the PLUS or the ETF Shares. These legislative and regulatory actions could result in restrictions on the PLUS. You may
lose a significant portion or all of your initial investment in the PLUS if you are forced to divest the PLUS due to the government mandates,
especially if such divestment must be made at a time when the value of the PLUS has declined. |
| § | The anti-dilution protection
for the ETF Shares is limited. The
calculation agent will make adjustments to the share adjustment factor for certain events affecting the ETF Shares. However, the
calculation agent will not make an adjustment in response to all events that could affect the ETF Shares. If an event occurs that
does not require the calculation agent to make an adjustment, the value of the PLUS may be materially and adversely affected. |

This document relates only to the PLUS offered hereby and does
not relate to the ETF Shares. We have derived all disclosures contained in this document regarding the iShares® MSCI Emerging
Markets ETF from the publicly available documents described in the first paragraph under this “iShares® MSCI Emerging
Markets ETF Overview” section, without independent verification. In connection with the offering of the PLUS, neither we nor the
agent has participated in the preparation of such documents or made any due diligence inquiry with respect to the iShares®
MSCI Emerging Markets ETF. Neither we nor the agent makes any representation that such publicly available documents or any other publicly
available information regarding the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF is accurate or complete. Furthermore, we cannot
give any assurance that all events occurring prior to the date hereof (including events that would affect the accuracy or completeness
of the publicly available documents described in the first paragraph under this “iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF
Overview” section) that would affect the trading price of the ETF Shares (and therefore the price of the ETF Shares at the time
we priced the PLUS) have been publicly disclosed. Subsequent disclosure of any such events or the disclosure of or failure to disclose
material future events concerning the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF could affect the value received at maturity, if
any, with respect to the PLUS and therefore the trading prices of the PLUS.
Neither we nor any of our affiliates makes any representation
to you as to the performance of the ETF Shares.

Additional Information about the PLUS
Please read this information in conjunction with the summary terms
on the front cover of this document.
Additional Provisions: |
Postponement of maturity date: |
If the scheduled maturity date is not a business day, then the maturity date will be the following business day. If the scheduled valuation date is not a trading day or if a market disruption event occurs on that day so that the valuation date is postponed and falls less than three business days prior to the scheduled maturity date, the maturity date of the PLUS will be postponed to the third business day following the valuation date as postponed. |
Minimum ticketing size: |

Trustee: |
Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (formerly Bankers Trust Company) |
Calculation agent: |
JPMS |
The estimated value of the PLUS: |
The estimated value of the PLUS set forth on the cover of
this document is equal to the sum of the values of the following hypothetical components: (1) a fixed-income debt component with the same
maturity as the PLUS, valued using the internal funding rate described below, and (2) the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic
terms of the PLUS. The estimated value of the PLUS does not represent a minimum price at which JPMS would be willing to buy your PLUS
in any secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated value of the
PLUS 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 PLUS as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability management costs of the PLUS 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
PLUS. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential changes to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the PLUS and
any secondary market prices of the PLUS. For additional information, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value
and Secondary Market Prices of the PLUS — The estimated value of the PLUS is derived by reference to an internal funding rate”
in this document. The value of the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the PLUS 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 PLUS on the pricing
date is based on market conditions and other relevant factors and assumptions existing at that time. See “Risk Factors — Risks
Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the PLUS — The estimated value of the PLUS does not represent future
values of the PLUS and may differ from others’ estimates” in this document.
The estimated value of the PLUS is lower than the original issue
price of the PLUS because costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the PLUS are included in the original issue price of
the PLUS. These costs include the selling commissions paid to JPMS and other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, the structuring fee,
the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the
PLUS and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the PLUS. 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 PLUS 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 “Risk Factors — Risks Relating
to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the PLUS — The estimated value of the PLUS is lower than the original issue
price (price to public) of the PLUS” in this document. |
Secondary market prices of the PLUS: |
For information about factors that will impact any secondary market prices of the PLUS, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the PLUS —Secondary market prices of the PLUS will be impacted by many economic and market factors” in this document. In addition, we generally expect that some of the costs included in the original issue price of the PLUS will be partially paid back to you in |

|
connection with any repurchases of your PLUS by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period that is intended to be the shorter of two years and one-half of the stated term of the PLUS. The length of any such initial period reflects the structure of the PLUS, whether our affiliates expect to earn a profit in connection with our hedging activities, the estimated costs of hedging the PLUS and when these costs are incurred, as determined by our affiliates. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the PLUS — The value of the PLUS as published by JPMS (and which may be reflected on customer account statements) may be higher than the then-current estimated value of the PLUS for a limited time period.” |
Tax considerations: |
You should review carefully the section entitled “Material
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement no. MS-1-II. The following discussion, when read in
combination with that section, constitutes the full opinion of our special tax counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, regarding the material
U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of the PLUS.
Based on current market conditions, in the opinion of our
special tax counsel, your PLUS should be treated as “open transactions” that are not debt instruments for U.S. federal income
tax purposes, as more fully described in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders
— Notes Treated as Open Transactions That Are Not Debt Instruments” in the accompanying product supplement. Assuming this
treatment is respected, subject to the possible application of the “constructive ownership” rules, the gain or loss on your
PLUS should be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if you hold your PLUS for more than a year, whether or not you are an initial
purchaser of the PLUS at the issue price. The PLUS could be treated as “constructive ownership transactions” within the meaning
of Section 1260 of the Code, in which case any gain recognized in respect of the PLUS that would otherwise be long-term capital gain and
that was in excess of the “net underlying long-term capital gain” (as defined in Section 1260) would be treated as ordinary
income, and a notional interest charge would apply as if that income had accrued for tax purposes at a constant yield over your holding
period for the PLUS. Our special tax counsel has not expressed an opinion with respect to whether the constructive ownership rules apply
to the PLUS. Accordingly, U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisers regarding the potential application of the constructive ownership
rules.
The IRS or a court may not respect the treatment of the PLUS
described above, in which case the timing and character of any income or loss on your PLUS could be materially and adversely affected.
In addition, in 2007 Treasury and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid
forward contracts” and similar instruments. The notice focuses in particular on whether to require investors in these instruments
to accrue income over the term of their investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related topics, including the character of
income or loss with respect to these instruments; the relevance of factors such as the nature of the underlying property to which the
instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors should be
subject to withholding tax; and whether these instruments are or should be subject to the constructive ownership regime described above.
While the notice requests comments on appropriate transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated
after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the PLUS, possibly
with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the
PLUS, including the potential application of the constructive ownership rules, possible alternative treatments and the issues presented
by this notice.
Section 871(m) of the Code and Treasury regulations promulgated
thereunder (“Section 871(m)”) generally impose a 30% withholding tax (unless an income tax treaty applies) on dividend equivalents
paid or deemed paid to Non-U.S. Holders with respect to certain financial instruments linked to U.S. equities or indices that include
U.S. equities. Section 871(m) provides certain exceptions to this withholding regime, including for instruments linked to certain broad-based
indices that meet requirements set forth in the applicable Treasury regulations. Additionally, a recent IRS notice excludes from the scope
of Section 871(m) instruments issued prior to January 1, 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 PLUS 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 |
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC
PLUS Based on the Performance of the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF due December 5, 2023
Performance Leveraged Upside SecuritiesSM
Principal at Risk Securities
|
with respect to an Underlying Security. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) to the PLUS. |
Supplemental use of proceeds and hedging: |
The PLUS are offered to meet investor demand for products
that reflect the risk-return profile and market exposure provided by the PLUS. See “How the PLUS Work” in this document for
an illustration of the risk-return profile of the PLUS and “iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF Overview” in
this document for a description of the market exposure provided by the PLUS.
The original issue price of the PLUS is equal to the estimated
value of the PLUS plus the selling commissions paid to JPMS and other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers and the structuring fee, plus
(minus) the projected profits (losses) that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under
the PLUS, plus the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the PLUS. |
Benefit plan investor considerations: |
See “Benefit Plan Investor Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement. |
Supplemental plan of distribution: |
Subject to regulatory constraints, JPMS intends to use its reasonable
efforts to offer to purchase the PLUS in the secondary market, but is not required to do so. JPMS, acting as agent for JPMorgan Financial,
will pay all of the selling commissions it receives from us to Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. In addition, Morgan Stanley Wealth Management
will receive a structuring fee as set forth on the cover of this document for each PLUS.
We or our affiliate may enter into swap agreements or related hedge
transactions with one of our other affiliates or unaffiliated counterparties in connection with the sale of the PLUS and JPMS and/or an
affiliate may earn additional income as a result of payments pursuant to the swap or related hedge transactions. See “— Supplemental
use of proceeds and hedging” above and “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying product supplement.
We expect that delivery of the PLUS will be made against payment
for the PLUS on or about the original issue date set forth on the front cover of this document, which will be the third business day following
the pricing date of the PLUS (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 PLUS 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.
Canada
The PLUS may be sold only to purchasers purchasing, or deemed to
be purchasing, as principal that are accredited investors, as defined in National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions (“NI 45-106”)
or subsection 73.3(1) of the Securities Act (Ontario) (the “OSA”), and are permitted clients, as defined in National
Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements, Exemptions and Ongoing Registrant Obligations (“NI-33-103”).
Accordingly, by placing a purchase order for PLUS, each purchaser
of PLUS in Canada will be deemed to have represented to the issuer, the guarantor and each agent and dealer participating in the sale
of the PLUS that such purchaser:
· is an “accredited investor” as defined in section 1.1 of NI 45-106 or subsection 73.3(1) of the OSA and is either
purchasing the PLUS as principal for its own account, or is deemed to be purchasing the PLUS as principal by applicable law;
· is a “permitted client” as defined in section 1.1 of NI 31-103 and, in particular, if the purchaser is an individual,
he or she beneficially owns financial assets (as defined in section 1.1 of NI 45-106) having an aggregate realizable value that, before
taxes but net of any related liabilities, exceeds CAD$5,000,000;
· is not a company or other entity created or being used solely to purchase or hold PLUS as an “accredited investor”;
and
· is not an “insider” of the issuer or the guarantor and is not registered as a dealer, adviser or otherwise under the
securities laws of any province or territory of Canada.
The PLUS are being distributed in Canada on a private placement basis
only and therefore any resale of the PLUS must be made in accordance with an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the prospectus
requirements of applicable securities laws. Each of the issuer and the guarantor is not a reporting issuer in any province or territory
in Canada and the PLUS are not listed on any stock exchange in Canada and there is currently no

public market for the PLUS in Canada. Each of the issuer and the
guarantor currently has no intention of becoming a reporting issuer in Canada, filing a prospectus with any securities regulatory authority
in Canada to qualify the resale of the PLUS to the public, or listing its PLUS on any stock exchange in Canada. Canadian purchasers are
advised to seek legal advice prior to any resale of the PLUS.
Securities legislation in certain provinces or territories of Canada
may provide a purchaser with remedies for rescission or damages if this document (including any amendment thereto) contains a misrepresentation,
provided that the remedies for rescission or damages are exercised by the purchaser within the time limit prescribed by the securities
legislation of the purchaser’s province or territory. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities
legislation of the purchaser’s province or territory for particulars of these rights or consult with a legal advisor.
The issuer, the guarantor, the agents and the dealers are relying
on the statutory exemption contained in section 3A.3 of National Instrument 33-105 Underwriting Conflicts (“NI 33-105”),
which provides that the disclosure requirements of NI 33-105 regarding underwriter conflicts of interest in connection with this offering
are not applicable.
By purchasing PLUS, the purchaser acknowledges that the issuer, the
guarantor, the agents and the dealers and their respective agents and advisers may each collect, use and disclose its name, telephone
number, address, the number and value of any PLUS purchased and other specified personally identifiable information (the “personal
information”), including the principal amount of PLUS that it has purchased and whether the purchaser is an “insider”
of the issuer or the guarantor or a “registrant” for purposes of meeting legal, regulatory and audit requirements and as otherwise
permitted or required by law or regulation. By purchasing PLUS, the purchaser consents to the foregoing collection, use and disclosure
of the personal information pertaining to the purchaser.
Furthermore, by purchasing PLUS, the purchaser acknowledges that
the personal information concerning the purchaser (A) will be disclosed to the relevant Canadian securities regulatory authorities
and may become available to the public in accordance with the requirements of applicable securities and freedom of information laws and
the purchaser consents to the disclosure of the personal information; (B) is being collected indirectly by the applicable Canadian
securities regulatory authority under the authority granted to it in securities legislation; and (C) is being collected for the purposes
of the administration and enforcement of the applicable Canadian securities legislation. By purchasing PLUS, the purchaser shall be deemed
to have authorized such indirect collection of the personal information by the relevant Canadian securities regulatory authorities.
Questions about the indirect collection of personal information should
be directed to the securities regulatory authority in the province of the purchaser, using the following contact information: in British
Columbia, the British Columbia Securities Commission can be contacted at P.O. Box 10142, Pacific Center, 701 West Georgia Street, Vancouver,

the local jurisdiction.
The purchaser acknowledges that each of the issuer and the guarantor
is an entity formed under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of Canada. Some or all of the managers and officers of the issuer or the
guarantor may be located outside Canada and, as a result, it may not be possible for purchasers to effect service of process within Canada
upon such entity or such persons. All or a substantial portion of the assets of each of the issuer and the guarantor may be located outside
of Canada and, as a result, it may not be possible to satisfy a judgment in Canada against the issuer, the guarantor or their respective
directors and officers or to enforce a judgment obtained in Canadian courts against the issuer, the guarantor or such persons outside
of Canada. The PLUS will not be governed by the laws of any province or territory of Canada. Accordingly, it may not be possible to enforce
PLUS in accordance with their terms in a Canadian court.
This document does not address the Canadian tax consequences of ownership
of PLUS. Prospective purchasers should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the Canadian and other tax considerations applicable
to them. |
Supplemental
information about the form of the PLUS: |
The PLUS 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 PLUS to indicate that the master note evidences the PLUS. |
Validity of the PLUS and the guarantee: |
In the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, as special products counsel to JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co., when the PLUS offered by this pricing supplement have been issued by JPMorgan Financial pursuant to the indenture, the trustee and/or paying agent has made, in accordance with the instructions from JPMorgan Financial, the appropriate entries or notations in its records relating to the master global note that represents such PLUS (the “master note”), and such PLUS have been delivered against payment as contemplated herein, such PLUS will be valid and binding obligations of JPMorgan Financial and the related guarantee will constitute a valid and binding obligation of JPMorgan Chase & Co., enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability (including, without limitation, concepts of good faith, fair dealing and the lack of bad faith), provided that such counsel expresses no opinion as to (i) the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law on the conclusions expressed above or (ii) any provision of the indenture that purports to avoid the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law by limiting the amount of JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s obligation under the related guarantee. This opinion is given as of the date hereof and is limited to the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act. In addition, this opinion is subject to customary assumptions about the trustee’s authorization, execution and delivery of the indenture and its authentication of the master note and the validity, binding nature and enforceability of the indenture with respect to the trustee, all as stated in the letter of such counsel dated May 6, 2022, which was filed as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K by JPMorgan Chase & Co. on May 6, 2022. |
