The J.P.
Morgan Dynamic BlendSM Index
The J.P. Morgan Dynamic BlendSM Index (the
“Index”) was developed and is maintained and calculated by J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (“JPMS”). The Index has
been calculated on a “live” basis (i.e., using real-time data) since March 23, 2021. The Index is reported by Bloomberg
L.P. under the ticker symbol “JPUSDYBL Index.”
The Index attempts to provide a dynamic rules-based
allocation to the J.P. Morgan US Large Cap Equities Futures Index (the “Equity Constituent”) and the J.P. Morgan 2Y US Treasury
Futures Index (the “Bond Constituent” and, together with the Equity Constituent, the “Portfolio Constituents”)
while targeting a level volatility of 3.0% (the “Target Volatility”). The Index tracks the return of (a) a notional dynamic
portfolio consisting of the Equity Constituent and the Bond Constituent, less (b) the daily deduction of 0.95% per annum (the “Index
Deduction”). Each futures contract underlying a Portfolio Constituent as of a particular time is referred to as an “Underlying
Futures Contract.”
| · | The Equity Constituent is an excess return index that tracks the return of a notional rolling futures position in futures contracts
on the S&P 500® Index. For additional information about the Equity Constituent, see “Background on the J.P. Morgan
Futures Indices” in the accompanying underlying supplement. |
| · | The Bond Constituent is an excess return index that tracks the return of a notional rolling futures position in futures contracts
on 2-Year U.S. treasury notes. For additional information about the Bond Constituent, see “Background on the J.P. Morgan Futures
Indices” in the accompanying underlying supplement. |
The Index provides a diversified exposure that rebalances
daily based on measures of market risk and diversification to attempt to deliver stable volatility over time.
Considerations Relating to the Volatility of the
Portfolio Constituents. Under normal market conditions, the Equity Constituent’s realized volatility has tended to be relatively
more variable than the Bond Constituent’s realized volatility. Consequently, and because the Index seeks to maintain an annualized
realized volatility approximately equal to the Target Volatility of only 3.0%, the Index methodology may be more likely to shift exposure
from the Equity Constituent to the Bond Constituent during periods of relatively higher market volatility and to shift exposure from the
Bond Constituent to the Equity Constituent under normal market conditions exhibiting relatively lower market volatility.
In general, equity markets have historically been more
likely to outperform fixed-income markets during periods of relatively lower market volatility and to underperform fixed-income markets
during periods of relatively higher market volatility. However, there can be no assurance that the Index allocation strategy will achieve
its intended results or that the Index will outperform any alternative index or strategy that might reference the Portfolio Constituents.
Past performance should not be considered indicative of future performance.
In any initial selection between two eligible notional
portfolios, the Index will select the portfolio that has the higher allocation to the Portfolio Constituent with a higher realized volatility,
as described below, which generally will cause the Equity Constituent to receive a higher allocation than if the portfolio that has the
higher allocation to the Portfolio Constituent with a lower realized volatility were selected.
Furthermore, under normal market conditions, the Equity
Constituent’s realized volatility has tended to be significantly higher than the Bond Constituent’s realized volatility. Under
these circumstances and because the Target Volatility is only 3.0%, the Index is generally expected to be more heavily weighted towards
the Bond Constituent. Past performance should not be considered indicative of future performance. Under circumstances where the Equity
Constituent’s realized volatility is significantly higher than that of the Bond Constituent, the performance of the Index is expected
to be influenced to a greater extent by the performance of the Equity Constituent than by the performance of the Bond Constituent, even
if the weight of the Bond Constituent is significantly greater than the weight of the Equity Constituent.
Consequently, even in cases where the allocation to
the Bond Constituent is greater than the allocation to the Equity Constituent, the Index may be influenced to a greater extent by the
performance of the Equity Constituent than by the performance of the Bond Constituent because, under some conditions, the greater allocation
to the Bond Constituent will not be sufficiently large to offset the greater realized volatility of the Equity Constituent.
Calculating the level of the Index. On any given
day, the closing level of the Index reflects (a) the weighted return performance of the Portfolio Constituents less (b) the 0.95%
per annum daily Index Deduction. The Index Level was set equal to 100.00 on July 25, 1990, the base date of the Index. The Index is an
“excess return” index because, through the Portfolio Constituents, it provides notional exposure to futures contract returns
that reflect changes in the price of those futures contracts, as well as their “roll” returns described below. The Index is
not a “total return” index because it does not reflect interest that could be earned on funds notionally committed to the
trading of futures contracts.

No assurance can be given that the investment strategy
used to construct the Index will achieve its intended results or that the Index will be successful or will outperform any alternative
index or strategy that might reference the Portfolio Constituents. Furthermore, no assurance can be given that the realized volatility
of the Index will approximate the Target Volatility. The actual realized volatility of the Index may be greater or less than the Target
Volatility.
If the aggregate weight of the Portfolio Constituents
in the Index is less than 100%, the Index will not be fully invested, and any uninvested portion will earn no return. The Index Deduction
is deducted daily at a rate of 0.95% per annum, even when the Index is not fully invested.
The Index is described as a “notional”
or “synthetic” portfolio of assets because there is no actual portfolio of assets to which any person is entitled or in which
any person has any ownership interest. The Index merely references certain assets, the performance of which will be used as a reference
point for calculating the level of the Index.
See “The J.P. Morgan Dynamic BlendSM
Index” in the accompanying underlying supplement for more information about the Index.

Supplemental
Terms of the Notes
Any values of the Index, and any values derived therefrom,
included in this pricing supplement may be corrected, in the event of manifest error or inconsistency, by amendment of this pricing supplement
and the corresponding terms of the notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the indenture governing the notes, that amendment
will become effective without consent of the holders of the notes or any other party.
Hypothetical Payout
Profile
The following table and graph illustrate the hypothetical
payment at maturity on the notes linked to a hypothetical Index. The hypothetical payments set forth below assume the following:
| · | an Initial Value of 100.00; and |
| · | a Participation Rate of 550.00%. |
The hypothetical Initial Value of 100.00 has been chosen
for illustrative purposes only and may not represent a likely actual Initial Value. The actual Initial Value will be the closing level
of the Index on the Pricing Date and will be provided in the pricing supplement. For historical data regarding the actual closing levels
of the Index, please see the historical information set forth under “Hypothetical Back-Tested Data and Historical Information”
in this pricing supplement.
Each hypothetical payment at maturity set forth below
is for illustrative purposes only and may not be the actual payment at maturity applicable to a purchaser of the notes. The numbers appearing
in the following table and graph have been rounded for ease of analysis.

The following graph demonstrates the hypothetical payments
at maturity on the notes for a range of Index Returns. There can be no assurance that the performance of the Index will result in a payment
at maturity in excess of $1,000.00 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 Value is greater than the Initial Value,
investors will receive at maturity the $1,000 principal amount plus the Additional Amount, which is equal to $1,000 times the
Index Return times the Participation Rate of at least 550.00%.
| · | Assuming a hypothetical Participation Rate of 550.00%, if the closing level of the Index increases 10.00%, investors will receive
at maturity a return equal to 55.00%, or $1,550.00 per $1,000 principal amount note. |
Par Scenario:
If the Final Value is equal to or less than the Initial
Value, the Additional Amount will be zero and investors will receive at maturity the principal amount of their notes.
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, product
supplement and underlying supplement and in Annex A to the accompanying prospectus addendum.
Risks Relating to the Notes Generally
| · | THE NOTES MAY NOT PAY MORE THAN THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT AT MATURITY — |
If the Final Value is less than or equal to
the Initial Value, you will receive only the principal amount of your notes at maturity, and you will not be compensated for any loss
in value due to inflation and other factors relating to the value of money over time.
| · | THE LEVEL OF THE INDEX WILL INCLUDE A 0.95% PER ANNUM DAILY DEDUCTION — |
The Index is subject to a 0.95% per annum daily
deduction. As a result of the deduction of this index fee, the level of the Index will trail the value of a hypothetical identically constituted
synthetic portfolio from which no such fee or cost is deducted.
| · | 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
PS-5
| Structured Investments
Notes Linked to the J.P. Morgan Dynamic BlendSM Index |
|
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. |
| · | YOU WILL NOT HAVE ANY RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO THE PORTFOLIO CONSTITUENTS, THE UNDERLYING FUTURES
CONTRACTS OR THE SECURITIES INCLUDED IN THE INDEX UNDERLYING THE UNDERLYING FUTURES CONTRACTS. |
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 Participation Rate.
Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest
We and our affiliates play a variety of roles
in connection with the notes. In performing these duties, our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s economic interests are potentially
adverse to your interests as an investor in the notes. It is possible that hedging or trading activities of ours or our affiliates in
connection with the notes could result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value of the notes declines. Please refer
to “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest” in the accompanying product supplement. See also “—
Risks Relating to the Index — Our Affiliate, JPMS, Is the Index Sponsor and the Index Calculation Agent of the Index and Each Portfolio
Constituent and May Adjust the Index or Each Portfolio Constituent in a Way that Affects Its Level” below.
JPMS is one of the primary dealers through which
the U.S. Federal Reserve conducts open-market purchases and sales of U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities, including U.S. Treasury
notes. These activities may affect the prices and yields on the U.S. Treasury notes, which may in turn affect the level of the Bond Constituent
and the level of the Bond Constituent. JPMS has no obligation to take into consideration your interests as a holder of the notes when
undertaking these activities.
| · | JPMS AND ITS AFFILIATES MAY HAVE PUBLISHED RESEARCH, EXPRESSED OPINIONS OR PROVIDED RECOMMENDATIONS THAT ARE INCONSISTENT WITH
INVESTING IN OR HOLDING THE NOTES, AND MAY DO SO IN THE FUTURE — |
Any research, opinions or recommendations could
affect the market value of the notes. Investors should undertake their own independent investigation of the merits of investing
in the notes and the Portfolio Constituents and the futures contracts composing the Portfolio Constituents.

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

but JPMorgan Chase & Co. will
not have any obligation to consider your interests in taking any corporate action that might affect the securities included in the reference
index underlying the Underlying Futures Contracts of the Equity Constituent.
| · | OUR AFFILIATE, JPMS, IS THE INDEX SPONSOR AND THE INDEX CALCULATION AGENT OF THE INDEX AND EACH PORTFOLIO CONSTITUENT AND MAY ADJUST
THE INDEX OR EACH PORTFOLIO CONSTITUENT IN A WAY THAT AFFECTS ITS LEVEL — |
JPMS, one of our affiliates, currently acts as
the index sponsor and the index calculation agent for the Index and the Portfolio Constituents and is responsible for calculating and
maintaining the Index and the Portfolio Constituents and developing the guidelines and policies governing their composition and calculation.
In performing these duties, JPMS may have interests adverse to the interests of the holders of the notes, which may affect your return
on the notes, particularly where JPMS, as the index sponsor and the index calculation agent of the Index and the Portfolio Constituents,
is entitled to exercise discretion. The rules governing the Index and the Portfolio Constituents may be amended at any time by the index
sponsor of the Index and the Portfolio Constituents, in its sole discretion. The rules also permit the use of discretion by the index
sponsor and the index calculation agent of the Index and the Portfolio Constituents in specific instances, including, but not limited
to, the determination of whether to replace a Portfolio Constituent with a substitute or successor upon the occurrence of certain events
affecting that Portfolio Constituent, the selection of any substitute or successor and the determination of the levels to be used in the
event of market disruptions that affect the ability of the index calculation agent of the Index and the Portfolio Constituents to calculate
and publish the levels of the Index and the Portfolio Constituents and the interpretation of the rules governing the Index and the Portfolio
Constituents. Although JPMS, acting as the index sponsor and the index calculation agent, will make all determinations and take all action
in relation to the Index and the Portfolio Constituents acting in good faith, it should be noted that JPMS may have interests adverse
to the interests of the holders of the notes and the policies and judgments for which JPMS is responsible could have an impact, positive
or negative, on the level of the Index and the value of your notes.
Although judgments, policies and determinations
concerning the Index and the Portfolio Constituents are made by JPMS, JPMorgan Chase & Co., as the ultimate parent company
of JPMorgan Chase Bank and JPMS, ultimately controls JPMorgan Chase and JPMS. JPMS has no obligation to consider your interests in taking
any actions that might affect the value of your notes. Furthermore, the inclusion of the Portfolio Constituents in the Index is not an
investment recommendation by us or JPMS of any of the Portfolio Constituents, or any of the futures contracts composing any of the Portfolio
Constituents.
| · | THE INDEX MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL OR OUTPERFORM ANY ALTERNATIVE STRATEGY THAT MIGHT BE EMPLOYED IN RESPECT OF THE PORTFOLIO CONSTITUENTS
— |
The Index follows a notional rules-based proprietary
strategy that operates on the basis of pre-determined rules. Under this strategy, the Index seeks to maintain an annualized realized volatility
approximately equal to the Target Volatility of 3.0% by rebalancing its exposures to the Portfolio Constituents on each day based on two
measures of realized portfolio volatility: a shorter-term volatility measure and a longer-term volatility measure. By seeking to maintain
an annualized realized volatility approximately equal to the Target Volatility, the Index may underperform an alternative strategy that
seeks to maintain a higher annualized realized volatility or an alternative strategy that does not seek to maintain a level volatility.
In addition, on each day, the Index generally
selects the notional portfolio identified for the volatility measure that has the lower allocation to the Equity Constituent as the notional
portfolio to be tracked by the Index. The Index’s selection of the notional portfolio with the lower allocation to the Equity Constituent
may be more likely to result in the Index tracking a notional portfolio with a lower realized volatility than if the Index were to select
the notional portfolio with the higher allocation to the Equity Constituent. No assurance can be given that the investment strategy on
which the Index is based will be successful or that the Index will outperform any alternative strategy that might be employed in respect
of the Portfolio Constituents.
| · | THE INDEX MAY NOT APPROXIMATE ITS TARGET VOLATILITY — |
No assurance can be given that the Index will
maintain an annualized realized volatility that approximates the Target Volatility. The actual realized volatility of the Index may be
greater or less than the Target Volatility. The Index seeks to maintain an annualized realized volatility approximately equal to the Target
Volatility of 3.0% by rebalancing its exposures to the Portfolio Constituents on each day based on two measures of realized portfolio
volatility. However, there is no guarantee that trends exhibited by either measure of realized portfolio volatility will continue in the
future. The volatility of a notional portfolio on any day may change quickly and unexpectedly. Accordingly, the actual realized annualized
volatility of the Index on a daily basis may be greater than or less than the Target Volatility, which may adversely affect the level
of the Index and the value of the notes.

|
| · | THE PERFORMANCE OF THE INDEX MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY ITS TARGET VOLATILITY OF 3.0% — |
The Index seeks to maintain an annualized
realized volatility approximately equal to the Target Volatility of 3.0%. A Target Volatility of 3.0% is relatively low as compared to
indices with similar investment strategies established prior to the Index. A relatively lower Target Volatility could result in poorer
performance in general over time, especially during periods of rising markets. See also “— A Significant Portion of the Index’s
Exposure May Be Allocated to the Bond Constituent” and “— The Index May Be More Heavily Influenced by the Performance
of the Equity Constituent Than the Performance of the Bond Constituent in General over Time” below.
| · | THE INDEX MAY BE SIGNIFICANTLY UNINVESTED — |
For each volatility measure on each day, the
Index seeks to identify a notional portfolio composed of the Portfolio Constituents that has an annualized realized volatility determined
for that volatility measure approximately equal to the Target Volatility of 3.0% and an aggregate weight of 100%. If the Index identifies
and selects such a notional portfolio for a volatility measure, but the weight of either Portfolio Constituent is greater than 100%, the
weight of that Portfolio Constituent in the notional portfolio selected for that volatility measure on that day will be 100% and, if the
weight of either Portfolio Constituent is less than 0%, the weight of that Portfolio Constituent in the notional portfolio selected for
that volatility measure on that day will be 0%. In addition, if there is no such notional portfolio for a volatility measure, the Index
selects for that volatility measure on that day the notional portfolio with the lowest realized volatility.
As a result of applying a cap and floor and
in the case of selecting the notional portfolio with the lowest realized volatility, the resulting notional portfolio may be greater than
or less than 3.0% for the relevant volatility measure. If the annualized realized volatility of the notional portfolio selected for a
volatility measure on any day is greater than 3.0%, that notional portfolio will be adjusted so that the weight of each Portfolio Constituent
in that notional portfolio will be reduced proportionately to achieve a notional portfolio that has an annualized realized volatility
for the relevant volatility measure of 3.0%. Under these circumstances, the aggregate weight of the Portfolio Constituents in that notional
portfolio will be less than 100%.
If the Index tracks a notional portfolio with
an aggregate weight that is less than 100%, the Index will not be fully invested, and any uninvested portion will earn no return. The
Index may be significantly uninvested on any given day, and will realize only a portion of any gains due to appreciation of the Portfolio
Constituents on any such day. The Index Deduction is deducted daily at a rate of 0.95% per annum, even when the Index is not fully invested.
| · | A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THE INDEX’S EXPOSURE MAY BE ALLOCATED TO THE BOND CONSTITUENT — |
Under normal market conditions, the Equity Constituent
has tended to exhibit a realized volatility that is higher than the Target Volatility and that is higher than the realized volatility
of the Bond Constituent in general over time. As a result, and because the Target Volatility is only 3.0% the Index will generally need
to reduce its exposure to the Equity Constituent in order to approximate the Target Volatility. Therefore, the Index may have significant
exposure for an extended period of time to the Bond Constituent, and that exposure may be greater, perhaps significantly greater, than
its exposure to the Equity Constituent. Moreover, under certain circumstances, the Index may have no exposure to the Equity Constituent.
However, the returns of the Bond Constituent may be significantly lower than the returns of the Equity Constituent, and possibly even
negative while the returns of the Equity Constituent are positive, which will adversely affect the level of the Index and any payment
on, and the value of, the notes.
| · | THE INDEX MAY BE MORE HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY THE PERFORMANCE OF THE EQUITY CONSTITUENT THAN THE PERFORMANCE OF THE BOND CONSTITUENT
IN GENERAL OVER TIME — |
In any initial selection between two eligible
notional portfolios, the Index will select the portfolio that has the higher allocation to the Portfolio Constituent with a higher realized
volatility, as described under “The J.P. Morgan Dynamic BlendSM Index” in the accompanying underlying supplement,
which generally will cause the Equity Constituent to receive a higher allocation than if the portfolio that has the higher allocation
to the Portfolio Constituent with a lower realized volatility were selected.
Furthermore, under normal market conditions, the
Equity Constituent’s realized volatility has been relatively more variable and has tended to be significantly higher than the Bond
Constituent’s realized volatility. Under these circumstances and because the Target Volatility is only 3.0%, the Index is generally
expected to be more heavily weighted towards the Bond Constituent. However, under circumstances where the Equity Constituent’s realized
volatility is significantly higher than that of the Bond Constituent, the performance of the Index is expected to be influenced to a greater
extent by the performance of the Equity Constituent than by the performance of the Bond Constituent, even if the weight of the Bond Constituent
is significantly greater than the weight of the Equity Constituent.
Consequently, even in cases where the allocation
to the Bond Constituent is greater than the allocation to the Equity Constituent, the Index may be influenced to a greater extent by the
performance of the Equity Constituent than by the performance of the Bond

|
Constituent because, under some conditions, the greater allocation
to the Bond Constituent will not be sufficiently large to offset the greater realized volatility of the Equity Constituent.
Accordingly, the level of the Index may decline
if the value of the Equity Constituent declines, even if the value of the Bond Constituent increases at the same time. See also “—
The Returns of the Portfolio Constituents May Offset Each Other or May Become Correlated in Decline” below.
| · | THE RETURNS OF THE PORTFOLIO CONSTITUENTS MAY OFFSET EACH OTHER OR MAY BECOME CORRELATED IN DECLINE — |
At a time when the value of one Portfolio Constituent
increases, the value of the other Portfolio Constituent may not increase as much or may even decline. This may offset the potentially
positive effect of the performance of the former Portfolio Constituent on the performance of the Index. During the term of the notes,
it is possible that the value of the Index may decline even if the value of one Portfolio Constituent rises, because of the offsetting
effect of a decline in the other Portfolio Constituent. It is also possible that the returns of the Portfolio Constituents may be positively
correlated with each other. In this case, a decline in one Portfolio Constituent would be accompanied by a decline in the other Portfolio
Constituent, which may adversely affect the performance of the Index. As a result, the Index may not perform as well as an alternative
index that tracks only one Portfolio Constituent or the other.
| · | HYPOTHETICAL BACK-TESTED DATA RELATING TO THE INDEX DO NOT REPRESENT ACTUAL HISTORICAL DATA AND ARE SUBJECT TO INHERENT LIMITATIONS
— |
The hypothetical back-tested performance of the
Index set forth under “Hypothetical Back-Tested Data and Historical Information” in this pricing supplement is purely theoretical
and does not represent the actual historical performance of the Index and has not been verified by an independent third party. Hypothetical
back-tested performance measures have inherent limitations. Alternative modelling techniques might produce significantly different results
and may prove to be more appropriate. Past performance, and especially hypothetical back-tested performance, is not indicative of future
results. This type of information has inherent limitations and you should carefully consider these limitations before placing reliance
on such information. Hypothetical back-tested performance is derived by means of the retroactive application of a back-tested model that
has been designed with the benefit of hindsight.
| · | THE INVESTMENT STRATEGY USED TO CONSTRUCT THE INDEX INVOLVES DAILY ADJUSTMENTS TO ITS NOTIONAL EXPOSURE TO ITS PORTFOLIO CONSTITUENTS
— |
The Index is subject to daily adjustments to
its notional exposure to its Portfolio Constituents. By contrast, a notional portfolio that is not subject to daily exposure adjustments
in this manner could see greater compounded gains over time through exposure to a consistently and rapidly appreciating portfolio consisting
of the relevant Portfolio Constituents. Therefore, your return on the notes may be less than the return you could realize on an alternative
investment in the relevant Portfolio Constituents that is not subject to daily exposure adjustments. No assurance can be given that the
investment strategy used to construct the Index will outperform any alternative investment in the Portfolio Constituents of the Index.
| · | A PORTFOLIO CONSTITUENT OF THE INDEX MAY BE REPLACED BY A SUBSTITUTE INDEX OR FUTURES CONTRACT IN CERTAIN EXTRAORDINARY EVENTS
— |
Following the occurrence of certain extraordinary
events with respect to a Portfolio Constituent as described in the accompanying underlying supplement, a Portfolio Constituent may be
replaced by a substitute index or futures contract or the index calculation agent may cease calculating and publishing in the Index. You
should realize that changing a Portfolio Constituent may affect the performance of the Index, and therefore, the return on the notes,
as the substitute index or futures contract may perform significantly better or worse than the original Portfolio Constituent. For example,
the substitute or successor Portfolio Constituent may have higher fees or worse performance than the original Portfolio Constituent.
Moreover, the policies of the index sponsor
of the substitute index or futures contract concerning the methodology and calculation of the substitute index or futures contract, including
decisions regarding additions, deletions or substitutions of the assets underlying the substitute index or futures contract could affect
the level or price of the substitute index or futures contract and therefore the value of the notes. The amount payable on the notes and
their market value could also be affected if the sponsor of a substitute index or the sponsor of the reference index of a substitute futures
contract discontinues or suspends calculation or dissemination of the relevant index, in which case it may become difficult to determine
the market value of the notes. The sponsor of the substitute index or futures contract will have no obligation to consider your interests
in calculating or revising such substitute index or futures contract.

| · | EACH PORTFOLIO CONSTITUENT IS SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANT RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE UNDERLYING FUTURES CONTRACTS — |
The Portfolio Constituents each track the returns
of the Underlying Futures Contracts. The price of an Underlying Futures Contract depends not only on the price of the underlying asset
referenced by the Underlying Futures Contract, but also on a range of other factors, including but not limited to changing supply and
demand relationships, interest rates, governmental and regulatory policies and the policies of the exchanges on which the Underlying Futures
Contracts trade. In addition, the futures markets are subject to temporary distortions or other disruptions due to various factors, including
the lack of liquidity in the markets, the participation of speculators and government regulation and intervention. These factors and others
can cause the prices of the Underlying Futures Contracts to be volatile and could adversely affect the level of each Portfolio Constituent
and the Index and any payments on, and the value of, your notes.
| · | SUSPENSION OR DISRUPTIONS OF MARKET TRADING IN THE UNDERLYING FUTURES CONTRACTS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF YOUR NOTES —
|
Futures markets are subject to temporary distortions
or other disruptions due to various factors, including lack of liquidity, the participation of speculators, and government regulation
and intervention. In addition, futures exchanges generally have regulations that limit the amount of the Underlying Futures Contract price
fluctuations that may occur in a single day. These limits are generally referred to as “daily price fluctuation limits” and
the maximum or minimum price of a contract on any given day as a result of these limits is referred to as a “limit price.”
Once the limit price has been reached in a particular contract, no trades may be made at a price beyond the limit, or trading may be limited
for a set period of time. Limit prices have the effect of precluding trading in a particular contract or forcing the liquidation of contracts
at potentially disadvantageous times or prices. These circumstances could delay the calculation of the level of each Portfolio Constituent
and could adversely affect the level of each Portfolio Constituent and the Index and any payments on, and the value of, your notes.
| · | AN INCREASE IN THE MARGIN REQUIREMENTS FOR THE UNDERLYING FUTURES CONTRACTS INCLUDED IN THE PORTFOLIO CONSTITUENTS MAY ADVERSELY
AFFECT THE LEVEL OF THAT PORTFOLIO CONSTITUENT — |
Futures exchanges require market participants
to post collateral in order to open and keep open positions in the Underlying Futures Contracts. If an exchange increases the amount of
collateral required to be posted to hold positions in the Underlying Futures Contracts, market participants who are unwilling or unable
to post additional collateral may liquidate their positions, which may cause the price or liquidity of the relevant Underlying Futures
Contracts to decline significantly. As a result, the level of the relevant Portfolio Constituent and the Index and any payments on, and
the value of, the notes may be adversely affected.
| · | THE INDEX MAY IN THE FUTURE INCLUDE UNDERLYING FUTURES CONTRACTS THAT ARE NOT TRADED ON REGULATED FUTURES EXCHANGES — |
The Index, through its exposure to the Portfolio
Constituents, is currently based solely on futures contracts traded on regulated futures exchanges (referred to in the United States as
“designated contract markets”). If these exchange-traded futures contracts cease to exist, or if the calculation agent for
the Portfolio Constituents substitutes an Underlying Futures Contract in certain circumstances, the Index may in the future include futures
contract or over-the-counter contracts traded on trading facilities that are subject to lesser degrees of regulation or, in some cases,
no substantive regulation. As a result, trading in such contracts, and the manner in which prices and volumes are reported by the relevant
trading facilities, may not be subject to the provisions of, and the protections afforded by, the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, or other
applicable statutes and related regulations that govern trading on regulated U.S. futures exchanges or similar statutes and regulations
that govern trading on regulated non-U.S. futures exchanges. In addition, many electronic trading facilities have only recently initiated
trading and do not have significant trading histories. As a result, the trading of contracts on such facilities, and the inclusion of
such contracts in the Index, through its exposure to the Portfolio Constituents, may be subject to certain risks not presented by the
Underlying Futures Contracts, including risks related to the liquidity and price histories of the relevant contracts.
| · | NEGATIVE ROLL RETURNS ASSOCIATED WITH THE UNDERLYING FUTURES CONTRACTS CONSTITUTING THE PORTFOLIO CONSTITUENTS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT
THE PERFORMANCE OF THE PORTFOLIO CONSTITUENTS AND THE VALUE OF THE NOTES — |
The Portfolio Constituents each reference Underlying
Futures Contracts. Unlike common equity securities, futures contracts, by their terms, have stated expirations. As the exchange-traded
Underlying Futures Contracts that compose the Portfolio Constituents approach expiration, they are replaced by similar contracts that
have a later expiration. For example, an Underlying Futures Contract notionally purchased and held in June may specify a September expiration
date. As time passes, the contract expiring in September is replaced by a contract for delivery in December. This is accomplished by notionally
selling the September contract and notionally purchasing the December contract. This process is referred to as “rolling.”
Excluding other considerations, if prices are higher in the distant delivery months than in the nearer delivery months, the notional purchase
of the December contract would take place at a price that is higher than the price of the September contract, thereby creating a negative
“roll return.”
PS-11
| Structured Investments
Notes Linked to the J.P. Morgan Dynamic BlendSM Index |
|
Negative roll returns adversely affect the returns of the Portfolio
Constituents and, therefore, the level of the Index and any payments on, and the value of, the notes. Because of the potential effects
of negative roll returns, it is possible for the value of a Portfolio Constituent to decrease significantly over time, even when the near-term
or spot prices of the underlying assets or instruments are stable or increasing. In addition, interest rates have been historically low
for an extended period and, if interest rates revert to their historical means, the likelihood that a roll return related to any Portfolio
Constituent will be negative, as well as the adverse effect of negative roll returns on any Portfolio Constituent, will increase.

Hypothetical
Back-Tested Data and Historical Information
The following graph sets forth the hypothetical back-tested
performance of the Index based on the hypothetical back-tested weekly closing levels of the Index from January 4, 2019 through March 19,
2021 and the historical performance of the Index based on the weekly historical closing levels of the Index from March 26, 2021 through
December 6, 2024. The Index was established on March 23, 2021, as represented by the vertical line in the following graph. All data to
the left of that vertical line reflect hypothetical back-tested performance of the Index. All data to the right of that vertical line
reflect actual historical performance of the Index. The closing level of the Index on December 10, 2024 was 152.65. We obtained the closing
levels above and below from the Bloomberg Professional® service (“Bloomberg”), without independent verification.
The data for the hypothetical back-tested performance
of the Index set forth in the following graph are purely theoretical and do not represent the actual historical performance of the Index.
See “Selected Risk Considerations — Risks Relating to the Index — Hypothetical Back-Tested Data Relating to the Index
Do Not Represent Actual Historical Data and Are Subject to Inherent Limitations” above.
The hypothetical back-tested and historical closing
levels of the Index should not be taken as an indication of future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the closing level
of the Index on the Pricing Date or the Observation Date. There can be no assurance that the performance of the Index will result in a
payment at maturity in excess of your principal amount, subject to the credit risks of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co.
The hypothetical
back-tested closing levels of the Index have inherent limitations and have not been verified by an independent third party. These hypothetical
back-tested closing levels are determined by means of a retroactive application of a back-tested model designed with the benefit of hindsight.
Hypothetical back-tested results are neither an indicator nor a guarantee of future returns. No representation is made that an investment
in the notes will or is likely to achieve returns similar to those shown. Alternative modeling techniques or assumptions would produce
different hypothetical back-tested closing levels of the Index that might prove to be more appropriate and that might differ significantly
from the hypothetical back-tested closing levels of the Index set forth above.
Treatment as Contingent Payment Debt Instruments
You should review
carefully the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences,” and in particular the subsection thereof entitled
“— Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders — Notes with a Term of More than One Year — Notes Treated as Contingent Payment
Debt Instruments” in the accompanying product supplement no. 3-I. Unlike a traditional debt instrument that provides for periodic
payments of interest at a single fixed rate, with respect to which a cash-method investor generally recognizes income only upon receipt
of stated interest, our special tax counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, is of the opinion that the notes will be treated for U.S.
federal income tax purposes as “contingent payment debt instruments.” As discussed in that subsection, you generally will
be required to accrue original issue discount (“OID”) on your notes in each taxable year at the “comparable yield,”
as determined by us, although we will not make any payment with respect to the notes until maturity. Upon sale or exchange (including
at maturity), you will recognize taxable income or loss equal to the difference between the amount received from the sale or exchange
and your adjusted
PS-13

Notes Linked to the J.P. Morgan Dynamic BlendSM Index |
|
basis in the note, which generally will equal the cost thereof, increased
by the amount of OID you have accrued in respect of the note. You generally must treat any income as interest income and any loss as ordinary
loss to the extent of previous interest inclusions, and the balance as capital loss. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to
limitations. The discussions herein and in the accompanying product supplement do not address the consequences to taxpayers subject to
special tax accounting rules under Section 451(b) of the Code. Purchasers who are not initial purchasers of notes at their issue price
should consult their tax advisers with respect to the tax consequences of an investment in notes, including the treatment of the difference,
if any, between the basis in their notes and the notes’ adjusted issue price.
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 discussions
in the preceding paragraphs, when read in combination with the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”
(and in particular the subsection thereof entitled “— Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders — Notes with a Term of More than
One Year — Notes Treated as Contingent Payment Debt Instruments”) in the accompanying product supplement, constitute the full
opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP regarding the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of notes.
Comparable
Yield and Projected Payment Schedule
We will determine
the comparable yield for the notes and will provide that comparable yield and the related projected payment schedule (or information about
how to obtain them) in the pricing supplement for the notes, which we will file with the SEC. The comparable yield for the notes will
be determined based upon a variety of factors, including actual market conditions and our borrowing costs for debt instruments of comparable
maturities at the time of issuance. The comparable yield and projected payment schedule are determined solely to calculate the amount
on which you will be taxed with respect to the notes in each year and are neither a prediction nor a guarantee of what the actual yield
will be.
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
PS-14
| Structured Investments
Notes Linked to the J.P. Morgan Dynamic BlendSM Index |
|
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 J.P. Morgan
Dynamic BlendSM Index” in this pricing supplement for a description of the market exposure provided by the notes.
The original issue price of the notes is equal to the
estimated value of the notes plus the selling commissions paid to JPMS and other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, plus (minus) the
projected profits (losses) that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the notes,
plus the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the notes.
Additional
Terms Specific to the Notes
You may revoke your offer to purchase the notes at
any time prior to the time at which we accept such offer by notifying the applicable agent. We reserve the right to change the terms of,
or reject any offer to purchase, the notes prior to their issuance. In the event of any changes to the terms of the notes, we will notify
you and you will be asked to accept such changes in connection with your purchase. You may also choose to reject such changes, in which
case we may reject your offer to purchase.
