JPMorgan prices uncapped buffered equity notes due 2029
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is offering uncapped buffered equity notes linked to an equally weighted basket of the S&P 500®, Russell 2000®, iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF and iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF, with a Buffer Amount of 15.00% and an Upside Leverage Factor of at least 1.00. The Strike Basket Value is set to 100.00 on February 23, 2026; the notes are expected to price on or about February 25, 2026 and settle on or about March 2, 2026, with maturity on or about June 28, 2029.
Per $1,000 principal amount, the estimated value if priced today is approximately $980.00, and will not be less than $950.00 when terms are set; selling commissions will not exceed $6.00 per $1,000. Payments at maturity depend on the Basket Return: investors receive upside (>=1.00×Basket Return) if positive, full principal if loss is within the 15.00% buffer, and will lose up to 85.00% of principal if losses exceed the buffer. Payments are subject to the credit risk of the issuer and guarantor.

Insights
Notes provide leveraged upside with a partial 15.00% buffer and significant downside exposure.
The structure offers at least a 1.00 Upside Leverage Factor, meaning positive Basket Returns are passed through on a one-for-one basis (or higher if specified). The Strike Basket Value is fixed at 100.00 as of February 23, 2026, and final payoff depends on the Basket Return on the Observation Date of June 25, 2029.
Key dependencies include the relative performance and correlation of the four Underlyings and issuer credit. Secondary market liquidity is likely limited, selling commissions can be up to $6.00 per $1,000, and the estimated initial value floor is $950.00 as disclosed.
Tax treatment may be complex; counsel expects "open transaction" treatment but Section 1260 and Section 871(m) risks remain.
Special tax counsel states it is reasonable to treat the notes as open transactions (not debt) such that gains may be long-term capital if held >1 year, subject to the constructive ownership rules of Section 1260. The counsel did not opine definitively on Section 1260 applicability.
The issuer expects Section 871(m) not to apply for Non-U.S. Holders under current determinations; the IRS could disagree. Holders should consult tax advisers regarding potential withholding or recharacterization risks.

Payment at Maturity:
If the Final Basket Value is greater than the Strike Basket
Value, your payment at maturity per $1,000 principal amount
note will be calculated as follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × Basket Return × Upside Leverage Factor)
If the Final Basket Value is equal to the Strike Basket Value

Amount, you will receive the principal amount of your notes at
maturity.
If the Final Basket Value is less than the Strike Basket Value
by more than the Buffer Amount, your payment at maturity
per $1,000 principal amount note will be calculated as
follows:
$1,000 + [$1,000 × (Basket Return + Buffer Amount)]

The following graph demonstrates the hypothetical payments at maturity on the notes for a range of Basket Returns. There can be no
assurance that the performance of the Basket will result in the return of any of your principal amount in excess of $150.00 per $1,000
principal amount note, subject to the credit risks of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co.
How the Notes Work
Upside Scenario:
If the Final Basket Value is greater than the Strike Basket Value, investors will receive at maturity the $1,000 principal amount plus a
return equal to the Basket Return times the Upside Leverage Factor of at least 1.00.
• Assuming a hypothetical Upside Leverage Factor of 1.00, if the closing level of the Basket increases 5.00%, investors will receive
at maturity a return equal to 5.00%, or $1,050.00 per $1,000 principal amount note.
Par Scenario:
If the Final Basket Value is equal to the Strike Basket Value or is less than the Strike Basket Value by up to the Buffer Amount of
15.00%, investors will receive at maturity the principal amount of their notes.
Downside Scenario:
If the Final Basket Value is less than the Strike Basket Value by more than the Buffer Amount of 15.00%, investors will lose 1% of the
principal amount of their notes for every 1% that the Final Basket Value is less than the Strike Basket Value by more than the Buffer
Amount.
• For example, if the closing level of the Basket declines 60.00%, investors will lose 45.00% of their principal amount and receive
only $550.00 per $1,000 principal amount note at maturity, calculated as follows:
$1,000 + [$1,000 × (-60.00% + 15.00%)] = $550.00
The hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments on the notes shown above apply only if you hold the notes for their entire term.
These hypotheticals do not reflect the fees or expenses that would be associated with any sale in the secondary market. If these fees
and expenses were included, the hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments shown above would likely be lower.

Selected Risk Considerations
An investment in the notes involves significant risks. These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” sections of the
accompanying prospectus supplement and product supplement and in Annex A to the accompanying prospectus addendum.
Risks Relating to the Notes Generally
• YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS —
The notes do not guarantee any return of principal. If the Final Basket Value is less than the Strike Basket Value by more than
15.00%, you will lose 1% of the principal amount of your notes for every 1% that the Final Basket Value is less than the Strike
Basket Value by more than 15.00%. Accordingly, under these circumstances, you will lose up to 15.00% of your principal amount
at maturity.
• CREDIT RISKS OF JPMORGAN FINANCIAL AND JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. —
Investors are dependent on our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s ability to pay all amounts due on the notes. Any actual or potential
change in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s creditworthiness or credit spreads, as determined by the market for taking that credit
risk, is likely to adversely affect the value of the notes. If we and JPMorgan Chase & Co. were to default on our payment
obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the notes and you could lose your entire investment.
• AS A FINANCE SUBSIDIARY, JPMORGAN FINANCIAL HAS NO INDEPENDENT OPERATIONS AND HAS LIMITED ASSETS
—
As a finance subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co., we have no independent operations beyond the issuance and administration of
our securities and the collection of intercompany obligations. Aside from the initial capital contribution from JPMorgan Chase &
Co., substantially all of our assets relate to obligations of JPMorgan Chase & Co. to make payments under loans made by us to
JPMorgan Chase & Co. or under other intercompany agreements. As a result, we are dependent upon payments from JPMorgan
Chase & Co. to meet our obligations under the notes. We are not a key operating subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. and in a
bankruptcy or resolution of JPMorgan Chase & Co. we are not expected to have sufficient resources to meet our obligations in
respect of the notes as they come due. If JPMorgan Chase & Co. does not make payments to us and we are unable to make
payments on the notes, you may have to seek payment under the related guarantee by JPMorgan Chase & Co., and that
guarantee will rank pari passu with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of JPMorgan Chase & Co. For more
information, see the accompanying prospectus addendum.
• THE NOTES DO NOT PAY INTEREST.
• CORRELATION (OR LACK OF CORRELATION) OF THE UNDERLYINGS —
The notes are linked to an equally weighted Basket composed of four Underlyings. In calculating the Final Basket Value, an
increase in the value of one of the Underlyings may be moderated, or more than offset, by lesser increases or declines in the
values of the other Underlyings. In addition, high correlation of movements in the values of the Underlyings during periods of
negative returns among the Underlyings could have an adverse effect on the payment at maturity on the notes.
• YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE DIVIDENDS ON EITHER FUND OR THE SECURITIES INCLUDED IN OR HELD BY ANY
UNDERLYING OR HAVE ANY RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO EITHER FUND OR THOSE SECURITIES.
• 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 JPMS is willing to buy the notes. You may not be able to sell your notes. The notes
are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your notes to maturity.

• THE FINAL TERMS AND VALUATION OF THE NOTES WILL BE PROVIDED IN THE PRICING SUPPLEMENT —
You should consider your potential investment in the notes based on the minimums for the estimated value of the notes and the
Upside Leverage Factor.
Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest
• 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.
Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes
• THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES WILL BE LOWER THAN THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE (PRICE TO PUBLIC) OF
THE NOTES —
The estimated value of the notes is only an estimate determined by reference to several factors. The original issue price of the
notes will exceed the estimated value of the notes because costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the notes are
included in the original issue price of the notes. These costs include the selling commissions, the projected profits, if any, that our
affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the notes and the estimated cost of hedging
our obligations under the notes. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.
• THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES DOES NOT REPRESENT FUTURE VALUES OF THE NOTES AND MAY DIFFER
FROM OTHERS’ ESTIMATES —
See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.
• THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES IS DERIVED BY REFERENCE TO AN INTERNAL FUNDING RATE —
The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated value of the notes may differ from the market-implied funding
rate for vanilla fixed income instruments of a similar maturity issued by JPMorgan Chase & Co. or its affiliates. Any difference may
be based on, among other things, our and our affiliates’ view of the funding value of the notes as well as the higher issuance,
operational and ongoing liability management costs of the notes in comparison to those costs for the conventional fixed income
instruments of JPMorgan Chase & Co. This internal funding rate is based on certain market inputs and assumptions, which may
prove to be incorrect, and is intended to approximate the prevailing market replacement funding rate for the notes. The use of an
internal funding rate and any potential changes to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the notes and any
secondary market prices of the notes. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.
• THE VALUE OF THE NOTES AS PUBLISHED BY JPMS (AND WHICH MAY BE REFLECTED ON CUSTOMER ACCOUNT
STATEMENTS) MAY BE HIGHER THAN THE THEN-CURRENT ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES FOR A LIMITED TIME
PERIOD —
We generally expect that some of the costs included in the original issue price of the notes will be partially paid back to you in
connection with any repurchases of your notes by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period.
See “Secondary Market Prices of the Notes” in this pricing supplement for additional information relating to this initial period.
Accordingly, the estimated value of your notes during this initial period may be lower than the value of the notes as published by
JPMS (and which may be shown on your customer account statements).
• SECONDARY MARKET PRICES OF THE NOTES WILL LIKELY BE LOWER THAN THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE OF THE
NOTES —
Any secondary market prices of the notes will likely be lower than the original issue price of the notes because, among other
things, secondary market prices take into account our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances and,
also, because secondary market prices may exclude selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, and estimated hedging
costs that are included in the original issue price of the notes. As a result, the price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to buy the
notes from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, is likely to be lower than the original issue price. Any sale by you prior to
the Maturity Date could result in a substantial loss to you.

Consisting of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index, the iShares®
MSCI EAFE ETF and the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF
• 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 level of the Basket. 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.
Risks Relating to the Basket
• JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. IS CURRENTLY ONE OF THE COMPANIES THAT MAKE UP THE S&P 500® INDEX,
but JPMorgan Chase & Co. will not have any obligation to consider your interests in taking any corporate action that might affect
the level of the S&P 500® Index.
• AN INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES IS SUBJECT TO RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH SMALL CAPITALIZATION STOCKS WITH
RESPECT TO THE RUSSELL 2000® INDEX —
Small capitalization companies may be less able to withstand adverse economic, market, trade and competitive conditions relative
to larger companies. Small capitalization companies are less likely to pay dividends on their stocks, and the presence of a
dividend payment could be a factor that limits downward stock price pressure under adverse market conditions.
• THERE ARE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FUNDS —
The Funds are subject to management risk, which is the risk that the investment strategies of the applicable Fund’s investment
adviser, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. These
constraints could adversely affect the market prices of the shares of the Funds and, consequently, the value of the notes.
• THE PERFORMANCE AND MARKET VALUE OF EACH FUND, PARTICULARLY DURING PERIODS OF MARKET
VOLATILITY, MAY NOT CORRELATE WITH THE PERFORMANCE OF THAT FUND’S UNDERLYING INDEX AS WELL AS
THE NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE —
Each Fund does not fully replicate its Underlying Index (as defined under “The Underlyings” below) and may hold securities
different from those included in its Underlying Index. In addition, the performance of each Fund will reflect additional transaction
costs and fees that are not included in the calculation of its Underlying Index. All of these factors may lead to a lack of correlation
between the performance of each Fund and its Underlying Index. In addition, corporate actions with respect to the equity securities
underlying a Fund (such as mergers and spin-offs) may impact the variance between the performances of that Fund and its
Underlying Index. Finally, because the shares of each Fund are traded on a securities exchange and are subject to market supply
and investor demand, the market value of one share of each Fund may differ from the net asset value per share of that Fund.
During periods of market volatility, securities underlying each Fund may be unavailable in the secondary market, market
participants may be unable to calculate accurately the net asset value per share of that Fund and the liquidity of that Fund may be
adversely affected. This kind of market volatility may also disrupt the ability of market participants to create and redeem shares of
a Fund. Further, market volatility may adversely affect, sometimes materially, the prices at which market participants are willing to
buy and sell shares of a Fund. As a result, under these circumstances, the market value of shares of a Fund may vary
substantially from the net asset value per share of that Fund. For all of the foregoing reasons, the performance of each Fund may
not correlate with the performance of its Underlying Index as well as the net asset value per share of that Fund, which could
materially and adversely affect the value of the notes in the secondary market and/or reduce any payment on the notes.
• NON-U.S. SECURITIES RISK WITH RESPECT TO THE FUNDS —
The equity securities held by the Funds 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, 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 WITH RESPECT TO THE FUNDS —
Because the prices of the non-U.S. equity securities held by each Fund are converted into U.S. dollars for purposes of calculating
the net asset value of that Fund, holders of the notes will be exposed to currency exchange rate risk with respect to each of the
currencies in which the non-U.S. equity securities held by that Fund trade. With respect to each Fund, 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

MSCI EAFE ETF and the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF
securities held by that Fund denominated in each of those currencies. If, taking into account the relevant weighting, the U.S. dollar
strengthens against those currencies, the price of the relevant Fund will be adversely affected and any payment on the notes may
be reduced.
• EMERGING MARKETS RISK WITH RESPECT TO THE iSHARES® MSCI EMERGING MARKETS ETF —
The equity securities held by the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF 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 iSHARES® MSCI EMERGING
MARKETS ETF —
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 iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF. 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 iShares® MSCI
Emerging Markets ETF.
• THE ANTI-DILUTION PROTECTION FOR THE FUNDS IS LIMITED —
The calculation agent will make adjustments to the Share Adjustment Factor for each Fund for certain events affecting the shares
of that Fund. However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment in response to all events that could affect the shares of
the Funds. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to make an adjustment, the value of the notes may be
materially and adversely affected.

Historical Information
The following graphs set forth the historical performance of the Basket as a whole, as well as each Underlying, based on the weekly
historical closing values from January 8, 2021 through February 20, 2026. The graph of the historical performance of the Basket
assumes that the closing level of the Basket on January 8, 2021 was 100 and that the weights of the Underlyings were as specified
under “Key Terms — Basket” in this pricing supplement on that date. The closing value of the S&P 500® Index on February 23, 2026
was 6,837.75. The closing value of the Russell 2000® Index on February 23, 2026 was 2,620.989. The closing value of the iShares®
MSCI EAFE ETF on February 23, 2026 was $104.47. The closing value of the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF on February 23,
2026 was $61.65. We obtained the closing values above and below from the Bloomberg Professional® service (“Bloomberg”), without
independent verification. The closing values of the Funds above and below may have been adjusted by Bloomberg for actions taken by
the Funds, such as stock splits.
The historical closing levels of the Basket and the closing values of the Underlyings should not be taken as an indication of future
performance, and no assurance can be given as to the closing level of the Basket on the Observation Date or the closing values of the
Underlyings on the Observation Date. There can be no assurance that the performance of the Basket will result in the return of any of
your principal amount in excess of $150.00 per $1,000 principal amount note, subject to the credit risks of JPMorgan Financial and
JPMorgan Chase & Co.

Tax Treatment
You should review carefully the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product
supplement no. 4-I. 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 notes.
Based on current market conditions, in the opinion of our special tax counsel it is reasonable to treat the notes 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 notes should be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if you hold your notes for more than
a year, whether or not you are an initial purchaser of notes at the issue price. The notes 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 notes 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 notes. Our special tax counsel has not expressed an opinion with respect to whether the
constructive ownership rules apply to the notes. 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 notes described above, in which case the timing and character of any income
or loss on your notes 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 notes, possibly with retroactive effect. You
should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the notes, 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, 2027 that do not have a delta of one with respect to underlying securities that could pay U.S.-source dividends for U.S. federal
income tax purposes (each an “Underlying Security”). Based on certain determinations made by us, we expect that Section 871(m) will
not apply to the notes with regard to Non-U.S. Holders. Our determination is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with
this determination. Section 871(m) is complex and its application may depend on your particular circumstances, including whether you
enter into other transactions with respect to an Underlying Security. If necessary, further information regarding the potential application
of Section 871(m) will be provided in the pricing supplement for the notes. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the potential
application of Section 871(m) to the notes.
The Estimated Value of the Notes
The estimated value of the notes set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement is equal to the sum of the values of the following
hypothetical components: (1) a fixed-income debt component with the same maturity as the notes, valued using the internal funding
rate described below, and (2) the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the notes. The estimated value of the
notes does not represent a minimum price at which JPMS would be willing to buy your notes in any secondary market (if any exists) at
any time. The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated value of the notes may differ from the market-implied
funding rate for vanilla fixed income instruments of a similar maturity issued by JPMorgan Chase & Co. or its affiliates. Any difference
may be based on, among other things, our and our affiliates’ view of the funding value of the notes as well as the higher issuance,
operational and ongoing liability management costs of the notes in comparison to those costs for the conventional fixed income
instruments of JPMorgan Chase & Co. This internal funding rate is based on certain market inputs and assumptions, which may prove
to be incorrect, and is intended to approximate the prevailing market replacement funding rate for the notes. The use of an internal
funding rate and any potential changes to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the notes and any secondary market
prices of the notes. For additional information, see “Selected Risk Considerations — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and
Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — The Estimated Value of the Notes Is Derived by Reference to an Internal Funding Rate” in this
pricing supplement.
The value of the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the notes is derived from internal pricing models of our
affiliates. These models are dependent on inputs such as the traded market prices of comparable derivative instruments and on
various other inputs, some of which are market-observable, and which can include volatility, dividend rates, interest rates and other
factors, as well as assumptions about future market events and/or environments. Accordingly, the estimated value of the notes is
determined when the terms of the notes are set based on market conditions and other relevant factors and assumptions existing at that
time.
The estimated value of the notes does not represent future values of the notes and may differ from others’ estimates. Different pricing
models and assumptions could provide valuations for the notes that are greater than or less than the estimated value of the notes. In
addition, market conditions and other relevant factors in the future may change, and any assumptions may prove to be incorrect. On
future dates, the value of the notes could change significantly based on, among other things, changes in market conditions, our or
JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s creditworthiness, interest rate movements and other relevant factors, which may impact the price, if any, at
which JPMS would be willing to buy notes from you in secondary market transactions.

The estimated value of the notes will be lower than the original issue price of the notes because costs associated with selling,
structuring and hedging the notes are included in the original issue price of the notes. These costs include the selling commissions
paid to JPMS and other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming
risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the notes and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the notes. Because
hedging our obligations entails risk and may be influenced by market forces beyond our control, this hedging may result in a profit that
is more or less than expected, or it may result in a loss. A portion of the profits, if any, realized in hedging our obligations under the
notes may be allowed to other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, and we or one or more of our affiliates will retain any remaining hedging
profits. See “Selected Risk Considerations — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — The
Estimated Value of the Notes Will Be Lower Than the Original Issue Price (Price to Public) of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.
Secondary Market Prices of the Notes
For information about factors that will impact any secondary market prices of the notes, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the
Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — Secondary market prices of the notes will be impacted by many
economic and market factors” in the accompanying product supplement. In addition, we generally expect that some of the costs
included in the original issue price of the notes will be partially paid back to you in connection with any repurchases of your notes by
JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period. These costs can include selling commissions,
projected hedging profits, if any, and, in some circumstances, estimated hedging costs and our internal secondary market funding rates
for structured debt issuances. This initial predetermined time period is intended to be the shorter of six months and one-half of the
stated term of the notes. The length of any such initial period reflects the structure of the notes, whether our affiliates expect to earn a
profit in connection with our hedging activities, the estimated costs of hedging the notes and when these costs are incurred, as
determined by our affiliates. See “Selected Risk Considerations — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices
of the Notes — The Value of the Notes as Published by JPMS (and Which May Be Reflected on Customer Account Statements) May
Be Higher Than the Then-Current Estimated Value of the Notes for a Limited Time Period” in this pricing supplement.
Supplemental Use of Proceeds
The notes are offered to meet investor demand for products that reflect the risk-return profile and market exposure provided by the
notes. See “Hypothetical Payout Profile” and “How the Notes Work” in this pricing supplement for an illustration of the risk-return profile
of the notes and “The Basket” in this pricing supplement for a description of the market exposure provided by the notes.
The original issue price of the notes is equal to the estimated value of the notes plus the selling commissions paid to JPMS and other
affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, plus (minus) the projected profits (losses) that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent
in hedging our obligations under the notes, plus the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the notes.
Additional Terms Specific to the Notes
You may revoke your offer to purchase the notes at any time prior to the time at which we accept such offer by notifying the applicable

changes to the terms of the notes, we will notify you and you will be asked to accept such changes in connection with your purchase.
You may also choose to reject such changes, in which case we may reject your offer to purchase.
