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.
● YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS —
The notes do not guarantee any return of principal. If the Final Value is less than the Initial Value by more than 10.00%, you will
lose 1% of the principal amount of your notes for every 1% that the Final Value is less than the Initial Value by more than 10.00%.
Accordingly, under these circumstances, you will lose up to 90.00% of your principal amount at maturity.
● YOUR MAXIMUM GAIN ON THE NOTES IS LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM RETURN,
regardless of any appreciation of the Index, which may be significant.
● 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.
● 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.
● THE NOTES DO NOT PAY INTEREST.
● YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE DIVIDENDS ON THE SECURITIES INCLUDED IN THE INDEX OR HAVE ANY RIGHTS WITH
RESPECT TO THOSE SECURITIES.
● NON-U.S. SECURITIES RISK —
The non-U.S. equity securities included in the 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 and/or the securities markets in the
home countries of the issuers of those non-U.S. equity securities. Also, with respect to equity securities that are not listed in the
U.S., 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.
● THE NOTES ARE SUBJECT TO CURRENCY EXCHANGE RISK —
Because the prices of the equity securities included in the Index are converted into U.S. dollars for purposes of calculating the level
of the Index, holders of the notes will be exposed to currency exchange rate risk with respect to each of the currencies in which the
equity securities included in the Index trade. Your net exposure will depend on the extent to which those currencies strengthen or
weaken against the U.S. dollar and the relative weight of equity securities included in the Index denominated in each of those
currencies. If, taking into account the relevant weighting, the U.S. dollar strengthens against those currencies, the level of the Index
will be adversely affected and any payment on the notes may be reduced.
● WE MAY ACCELERATE YOUR NOTES IF A CHANGE-IN-LAW EVENT OCCURS —
Upon the announcement or occurrence of legal or regulatory changes that the calculation agent determines are likely to interfere
with your or our ability to transact in or hold the notes or our ability to hedge or perform our obligations under the notes, we may, in
our sole and absolute discretion, accelerate the payment on your notes and pay you an amount determined in good faith and in a
commercially reasonable manner by the calculation agent. If the payment on your notes is accelerated, your investment may result
in a loss and you may not be able to reinvest your money in a comparable investment. Please see “General Terms of Notes —
Consequences of a Change-in-Law Event” in the accompanying product supplement for more information.
● 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 J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, which we refer to as 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.
