Auto Callable Barrier Notes Linked to the Lesser Performing of the
S&P 500® Index and the Russell 2000®
Index due July 1, 2027
Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by JPMorgan
Chase & Co.
|
· |
The notes are designed for investors who seek early exit prior
to maturity at a premium if, on any Review Date (other than the
final Review Date), the closing level of each of the S&P
500® Index and the Russell 2000® Index, which
we refer to as the Indices, is at or above its Call Value. |
|
· |
The earliest date on which an automatic call may be initiated
is June 28, 2023. |
|
· |
The notes are also designed for investors who seek uncapped,
unleveraged exposure to any appreciation of the lesser performing
of the Indices at maturity, if the notes have not been
automatically called. |
|
· |
Investors should be willing to forgo interest and dividend
payments and be willing to accept the risk of losing some or all of
their principal amount at maturity. |
|
· |
The notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, which we refer to as JPMorgan
Financial, the payment on which is fully and unconditionally
guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. Any payment on the notes
is subject to the credit risk of JPMorgan Financial, as issuer of
the notes, and the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase & Co., as
guarantor of the notes. |
|
· |
Payments on the notes are not linked to a basket composed of
the Indices. Payments on the notes are linked to the performance of
each of the Indices individually, as described below. |
|
· |
Minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples
thereof |
|
· |
The notes priced on June 27, 2022 and are expected to settle on

Automatic Call:
If the closing level of each Index on any Review Date (other than
the final Review Date) is greater than or equal to its Call Value,
the notes will be automatically called for a cash payment, for each
$1,000 principal amount note, equal to (a) $1,000 plus (b)
the Call Premium Amount applicable to that Review Date, payable on
the applicable Call Settlement Date. No further payments will be
made on the notes.
If the notes are automatically called, you will not benefit from
the feature that provides you with a return at maturity equal to
the Lesser Performing Index Return if the Final Value of each Index
is greater than its Initial Value. Because this feature does
not apply to the payment upon an automatic call, the payment upon
an automatic call may be significantly less than the payment at
maturity for the same level of appreciation in the Lesser
Performing Index.
Payment at Maturity:
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final Value
of each Index is greater than its Initial Value, your payment at
maturity per $1,000 principal amount note will be calculated as
follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × Lesser Performing Index Return)
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final Value
of either Index is equal to or less than its Initial Value but the
Final Value of each Index is greater than or equal to its Barrier
Amount, you will receive the principal amount of your notes at
maturity.
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final Value
of either Index is less than its Barrier Amount, your payment at
maturity per $1,000 principal amount note will be calculated as
follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × Lesser Performing Index Return)
If the notes have not been
automatically called and the Final Value of either Index is less
than its Barrier Amount, you will lose more than 40.00% of your
principal amount at maturity and could lose all of your principal
amount at maturity.

Payment at Maturity If the Notes Have Not Been Automatically
Called
The following table illustrates the hypothetical total return and
payment at maturity on the notes linked to two hypothetical
indices. The “total return” as used in this pricing supplement is
the number, expressed as a percentage, that results from comparing
the payment at maturity per $1,000 principal amount note to $1,000.
The hypothetical total returns and payments set forth below assume
the following:
|
· |
the notes have not been automatically called; |
|
· |
an Initial Value for the Lesser Performing Index of 100.00;
and |
|
· |
a Barrier Amount for the Lesser Performing Index of 60.00
(equal to 60.00% of its hypothetical Initial Value). |
The hypothetical Initial Value of the Lesser Performing Index of
100.00 has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and does not
represent the actual Initial Value of either Index. The actual
Initial Value of each Index is the closing level of that Index on
the Pricing Date and is specified under “Key Terms — Initial Value”
in this pricing supplement. For historical data regarding the
actual closing levels of each Index, please see the historical
information set forth under “The Indices” in this pricing
supplement.
Each hypothetical total return or hypothetical payment at maturity
set forth below is for illustrative purposes only and may not be
the actual total return or payment at maturity applicable to a
purchaser of the notes. The numbers appearing in the following
table have been rounded for ease of analysis.

Note Payout Scenarios
Upside Scenario If Automatic Call:
If the closing level of each Index on any Review Date (other than
the final Review Date) is greater than or equal to its Call Value,
the notes will be automatically called and investors will receive
on the applicable Call Settlement Date the $1,000 principal amount
plus the Call Premium Amount, applicable to that Review
Date. No further payments will be made on the notes.
|
· |
If the
closing level of the Lesser Performing Index increases 10.00% as of
the first Review Date, the notes will be automatically called and
investors will receive a 9.00% return, or $1,090.00 per $1,000
principal amount note. |
|
· |
If the notes
have not been previously automatically called and the closing level
of the Lesser Performing Index increases 65.00% as of the fourth
Review Date, the notes will be automatically called and investors
will receive a 36.00% return, or $1,360.00 per $1,000 principal
amount note. |
Upside Scenario If No Automatic Call:
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final Value
of each Index is greater than its Initial Value, investors will
receive at maturity the $1,000 principal amount plus a
return equal to the Lesser Performing Index Return.
|
· |
If the notes have not been automatically called and the closing
level of the Lesser Performing Index increases 10.00%, investors
will receive at maturity a 10.00% return, or $1,100.00 per $1,000
principal amount note. |
Par Scenario:
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final Value
of either Index is equal to or less than its Initial Value but the
Final Value of each Index is greater than or equal to its Barrier
Amount of 60.00% of its Initial Value, investors will receive at
maturity the principal amount of their notes.
Downside Scenario:
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final Value
of either Index is less than its Barrier Amount of 60.00% of its
Initial Value, investors will lose 1% of the principal amount of
their notes for every 1% that the Final Value of the Lesser
Performing Index is less than its Initial Value.
|
· |
For example,
if the notes have not been automatically called and the closing
level of the Lesser Performing Index declines 60.00%, investors
will lose 60.00% of their principal amount and receive $400.00 per
$1,000 principal amount note at maturity. |
The hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments on the notes
shown above apply only if you hold the notes for their entire
term or until automatically called. These hypotheticals do not
reflect the fees or expenses that would be associated with any sale
in the secondary market. If these fees and expenses were included,
the hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments shown above
would likely be lower.
Selected Risk Considerations
An investment in the notes involves significant risks. These risks
are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” sections of the
accompanying prospectus supplement, product supplement and
underlying supplement.
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 notes
have not been automatically called and the Final Value of either
Index is less than its Barrier Amount, you will lose 1% of the
principal amount of your notes for every 1% that the Final Value of
the Lesser Performing Index is less than its Initial Value.
Accordingly, under these circumstances, you will lose more than
40.00% of your principal amount at maturity and could lose all 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.

Index
|
 |
|
· |
AS A FINANCE
SUBSIDIARY, JPMORGAN FINANCIAL HAS NO INDEPENDENT OPERATIONS AND
HAS LIMITED ASSETS — |
As a finance subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co., we have no
independent operations beyond the issuance and administration of
our securities. Aside from the initial capital contribution from
JPMorgan Chase & Co., substantially all of our assets relate to
obligations of our affiliates to make payments under loans made by
us or other intercompany agreements. As a result, we are dependent
upon payments from our affiliates to meet our obligations under the
notes. If these affiliates do not make payments to us and we fail
to make payments on the notes, you may have to seek payment under
the related guarantee by JPMorgan Chase & Co., and that
guarantee will rank pari passu with all other unsecured and
unsubordinated obligations of JPMorgan Chase & Co.
|
· |
IF THE NOTES ARE
AUTOMATICALLY CALLED, THE APPRECIATION POTENTIAL OF THE NOTES IS
LIMITED TO THE APPLICABLE CALL PREMIUM AMOUNT PAID ON THE
NOTES, |
regardless of the appreciation of either Index, which may be
significant. In addition, if the notes are automatically called,
you will not benefit from the feature that provides you with a
return at maturity equal to the Lesser Performing Index Return if
the Final Value of each Index is greater than its Initial
Value. Because this feature does not apply to the payment
upon an automatic call, the payment upon an automatic call may be
significantly less than the payment at maturity for the same level
of appreciation in the Lesser Performing Index.
|
· |
YOU ARE EXPOSED TO
THE RISK OF DECLINE IN THE LEVEL OF EACH INDEX — |
Payments on the notes are not linked to a basket composed of the
Indices and are contingent upon the performance of each individual
Index. Poor performance by either Index over the term of the notes
may result in the notes not being automatically called on a Review
Date, may negatively affect your payment at maturity and will not
be offset or mitigated by positive performance by the other
Index.
|
· |
YOUR PAYMENT AT
MATURITY WILL BE DETERMINED BY THE LESSER PERFORMING
INDEX. |
|
· |
THE BENEFIT
PROVIDED BY THE BARRIER AMOUNT MAY TERMINATE ON THE FINAL REVIEW
DATE — |
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final Value
of either Index is less than its Barrier Amount, the benefit
provided by the Barrier Amount will terminate and you will be fully
exposed to any depreciation of the Lesser Performing Index.
|
· |
THE AUTOMATIC CALL
FEATURE MAY FORCE A POTENTIAL EARLY EXIT — |
If your notes are automatically called, the term of the notes may
be reduced to as short as approximately one year. There is no
guarantee that you would be able to reinvest the proceeds from an
investment in the notes at a comparable return for a similar level
of risk. Even in cases where the notes are called before maturity,
you are not entitled to any fees and commissions described on the
front cover of this pricing supplement.
|
· |
THE NOTES DO NOT
PAY INTEREST. |
|
· |
YOU WILL NOT
RECEIVE DIVIDENDS ON THE SECURITIES INCLUDED IN EITHER INDEX OR
HAVE ANY RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO THOSE SECURITIES. |
|
· |
THE RISK OF THE
CLOSING LEVEL OF AN INDEX FALLING BELOW ITS BARRIER AMOUNT IS
GREATER IF THE LEVEL OF THAT INDEX IS VOLATILE. |
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.
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.

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

|
· |
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.

The S&P 500® Index consists of stocks of 500
companies selected to provide a performance benchmark for the U.S.
equity markets. For additional information about the S&P

The Russell 2000® Index consists of the middle 2,000
companies included in the Russell 3000E™ Index and, as a result of
the index calculation methodology, consists of the smallest 2,000
companies included in the Russell 3000® Index. The
Russell 2000® Index is designed to track the performance
of the small capitalization segment of the U.S. equity market. For
additional information about the Russell 2000® Index,
see “Equity Index Descriptions — The Russell Indices” in the
accompanying underlying supplement.
Historical Information
The following graphs set forth the historical performance of each
Index based on the weekly historical closing levels from January 6,
2017 through June 24, 2022. The closing level of the S&P
500® Index on June 27, 2022 was 3,900.11. The closing
level of the Russell 2000® Index on June 27, 2022 was
1,771.742. We obtained the closing levels above and below from the
Bloomberg Professional® service (“Bloomberg”), without
independent verification.
The historical closing levels of each Index should not be taken as
an indication of future performance, and no assurance can be given
as to the closing level of either Index on any Review Date. There
can be no assurance that the performance of the Indices will result
in the return of any of your principal amount.

Tax Treatment
You should review carefully the section entitled “Material U.S.
Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product
supplement no. 4-II. The following discussion, when read in
combination with that section, constitutes the full opinion of our
special tax counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, regarding the
material U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning and
disposing of 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, 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. However, the IRS or a court may not respect this
treatment, in which case the timing and character of any income or
loss on the 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,
which very generally can operate to recharacterize certain
long-term capital gain as ordinary income and impose a notional
interest charge. 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 possible
alternative treatments and the issues presented by this notice.
Section 871(m) of the Code and Treasury regulations promulgated
thereunder (“Section 871(m)”) generally impose a 30% withholding
tax (unless an income tax treaty applies) on dividend equivalents
paid or deemed paid to Non-U.S. Holders with respect to certain
financial instruments linked to U.S. equities or indices that
include U.S. equities. Section 871(m) provides certain exceptions
to this withholding regime, including for instruments linked to
certain broad-based indices that meet requirements set forth in the
applicable Treasury regulations. Additionally, a recent IRS notice
excludes from the scope of Section 871(m) instruments issued prior
to January 1, 2023 that do not have a delta of one with respect to
underlying securities that could pay U.S.-source dividends for U.S.
federal income tax purposes (each an “Underlying Security”). Based
on certain determinations made by us, our special tax counsel is of
the opinion that Section 871(m) should not apply to the notes with
regard to Non-U.S. Holders. Our determination is not binding on the
IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this determination. Section
871(m) is complex and its application may depend on your particular
circumstances, including whether you enter into other transactions
with respect to an Underlying Security. You should consult your tax
adviser regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) to
the notes.
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 is lower than the original issue
price of the notes because costs associated with selling,
structuring and hedging the notes are included in the original
issue price of the notes. These costs include the selling
commissions paid to JPMS and other affiliated or unaffiliated
dealers, the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates expect
to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations
under the notes and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations
under the notes. Because hedging our obligations entails risk and
may be influenced by market forces beyond our control, this hedging
may result in a profit that is more or less than expected, or it
may result in a loss. A portion of the profits, if any, realized in
hedging our obligations under the notes may be allowed to other
affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, and we or one or more of our
affiliates will retain any remaining hedging profits. See “Selected
Risk Considerations — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and
Secondary Market Prices of the Notes — The Estimated Value of the
Notes Is Lower Than the Original Issue Price (Price to Public) of
the Notes” in this pricing supplement.
Secondary Market Prices of the Notes
For information about factors that will impact any secondary market
prices of the notes, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the
Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes —
Secondary market prices of the notes will be impacted by many
economic and market factors” in the accompanying product
supplement. In addition, we generally expect that some of the costs
included in the original issue price of the notes will be partially
paid back to you in connection with any repurchases of your notes
by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial
predetermined period. These costs can include selling commissions,
projected hedging profits, if any, and, in some circumstances,
estimated hedging costs and our internal secondary market funding
rates for structured debt issuances. This initial predetermined
time period is intended to be the shorter of six months and
one-half of the stated term of the notes. The length of any such
initial period reflects the structure of the notes, whether our
affiliates expect to earn a profit in connection with our hedging
activities, the estimated costs of hedging the notes and when these
costs are incurred, as determined by our affiliates. See “Selected
Risk Considerations — 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 “How the Notes Work” and “Note Payout Scenarios” in this
pricing supplement for an illustration of the risk-return profile
of the notes and “The Indices” in this pricing supplement for a
description of the market exposure provided by the notes.
The original issue price of the notes is equal to the estimated
value of the notes plus the selling commissions paid to JPMS and
other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, plus (minus) the
projected profits (losses) that our affiliates expect to realize
for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the
notes, plus the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the
notes.
Supplemental Plan of Distribution
We expect that delivery of the notes will be made against payment
for the notes on or about the Original Issue Date set forth on the
front cover of this pricing supplement, which will be the third
business day following the Pricing Date of the notes (this
settlement cycle being referred to as “T+3”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the
secondary market generally are required to settle in two business
days, unless the parties to that trade expressly agree otherwise.
Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on any date prior
to two business days before delivery will be required to specify an
alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent
a failed settlement and should consult their own advisors.
Supplemental Information About the Form of the Notes
The notes will initially be represented by a type of global
security that we refer to as a master note. A master note
represents multiple securities that may be issued at different
times and that may have different terms. The trustee and/or
paying agent will, in accordance
PS-10

|
 |
with instructions from us, make appropriate entries or notations in
its records relating to the master note representing the notes to
indicate that the master note evidences the notes.
