over the term of the notes, assuming no early redemption, payable
at a rate of 2.9625% per quarter. |

Hypothetical Payout Examples
The following examples illustrate payments on the notes linked to a
hypothetical Reference Stock, assuming a range of performances for
the hypothetical Reference Stock on the Observation Date.
The hypothetical payments set forth below assume the following:
|
· |
the notes have not been redeemed early; |
|
· |
an Initial Value of $100.00; |
|
· |
a Trigger Value of $50.00 (equal to 50.00% of the hypothetical
Initial Value); and |
|
· |
an Interest Rate of 11.85% per annum (payable at a rate of
2.9625% per quarter). |
The hypothetical Initial Value of $100.00 has been chosen for
illustrative purposes only and does not represent the actual
Initial Value. The actual Initial Value is the closing price of one
share of the Reference Stock on the Pricing Date and is specified
under “Key Terms — Initial Value” in this pricing supplement. For
historical data regarding the actual closing prices of one share of
the Reference Stock, please see the historical information set
forth under “The Reference Stock” in this pricing supplement.
Each hypothetical payment set forth below is for illustrative
purposes only and may not be the actual payment applicable to a
purchaser of the notes. The numbers appearing in the following
examples have been rounded for ease of analysis.
Example 1 — Notes have NOT been redeemed early and the Final
Value is greater than or equal to the Trigger Value.
Date |
Closing Price |
|
Observation Date |
$80.00 |
Final Value is greater than or equal
to Trigger Value |
|
Total Payment |
$1,237.00 (23.70% return) |
Because the notes have not been redeemed early and the Final Value
is greater than or equal to the Trigger Value, the payment at
maturity, for each $1,000 principal amount note, will be $1,029.625
(or $1,000 plus the Interest Payment applicable to the
Maturity Date). When added to the Interest Payments received with
respect to the prior Interest Payment Dates, the total amount paid,
for each $1,000 principal amount note, is $1,237.00.
Example
2 — Notes have NOT been redeemed early and the Final Value is less
than the Trigger Value.
Date |
Closing Price |
|
Observation Date |
$40.00 |
Final Value is less than Trigger
Value |
|
Total Payment |
$637.00 (-36.30% return) |
Because the notes have not been redeemed early, the Final Value is
less than the Trigger Value and the Stock Return is -60.00%, the
payment at maturity will be $429.625 per $1,000 principal amount
note, calculated as follows:
$1,000 + [$1,000 × (-60.00%)] + $29.625 = $429.625
When added to the Interest Payments received with respect to the
prior Interest Payment Dates, the total amount paid, for each
$1,000 principal amount note, is $637.00.

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.
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 redeemed early and the Final Value is less than the
Trigger Value, you will lose 1% of the principal amount of your
notes for every 1% that the Final Value is less than the Initial
Value. Accordingly, under these circumstances, you will lose more
than 50.00% 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.
|
· |
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.
|
· |
THE APPRECIATION POTENTIAL OF THE NOTES IS LIMITED TO THE
SUM OF THE INTEREST PAYMENTS PAID OVER THE TERM OF THE
NOTES, |
regardless of any appreciation of the Reference Stock, which may be
significant. You will not participate in any appreciation of the
Reference Stock.
|
· |
THE BENEFIT PROVIDED BY THE TRIGGER VALUE MAY TERMINATE ON
THE OBSERVATION DATE — |
If the Final Value is less than the Trigger Value and the notes
have not been redeemed early, the benefit provided by the Trigger
Value will terminate and you will be fully exposed to any
depreciation of the Reference Stock.
|
· |
THE OPTIONAL EARLY REDEMPTION FEATURE MAY FORCE A POTENTIAL
EARLY EXIT — |
If we elect to redeem your notes early, the term of the notes may
be reduced to as short as approximately six months and you will not
receive any Interest Payments after the applicable Interest Payment
Date. There is no guarantee that you would be able to reinvest the
proceeds from an investment in the notes at a comparable return
and/or with a comparable interest rate for a similar level of risk.
Even in cases where we elect to redeem your notes before maturity,
you are not entitled to any fees and commissions described on the
front cover of this pricing supplement.
|
· |
YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE DIVIDENDS ON THE REFERENCE STOCK OR
HAVE ANY RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO THE REFERENCE STOCK. |
|
· |
THE RISK OF THE CLOSING PRICE OF ONE SHARE OF THE REFERENCE
STOCK FALLING BELOW THE TRIGGER VALUE IS GREATER IF THE PRICE OF
ONE SHARE OF THE REFERENCE STOCK 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 price of one share of the Reference Stock.
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 Reference Stock
|
· |
NO AFFILIATION WITH THE REFERENCE STOCK ISSUER — |
We have not independently verified any of the information about the
Reference Stock issuer contained in this pricing supplement. You
should undertake your own investigation into the Reference Stock
and its issuer. We are not responsible for the Reference Stock
issuer’s public disclosure of information, whether contained in SEC
filings or otherwise.
|
· |
LIMITED TRADING HISTORY — |
The Reference Stock commenced
trading on The Nasdaq Stock Market on June 12, 2019 and therefore
has limited historical performance. Accordingly, historical
information for the Reference Stock is available only since that
date. Past performance should not be considered indicative of
future performance.
|
· |
THE ANTI-DILUTION PROTECTION FOR THE REFERENCE STOCK IS
LIMITED AND MAY BE DISCRETIONARY — |
The calculation agent will not make an adjustment in response to
all events that could affect the Reference Stock. The calculation
agent may make adjustments in response to events that are not
described in the accompanying product supplement to account for any
diluting or concentrative effect, but the calculation agent is
under no obligation to do so or to consider your interests as a
holder of the notes in making these determinations.

The Reference Stock
All information contained herein on the Reference Stock and on
CrowdStrike is derived from publicly available sources, without
independent verification. According to its publicly available
filings with the SEC, CrowdStrike is a cybersecurity company that
provides cloud-delivered protection of endpoints, cloud workloads,
identity and data via a software as a service (“SaaS”)
subscription-based model that spans multiple security markets,

threat intelligence services, identity protection and log
management. The Class A common stock of CrowdStrike, par
value $0.0005 per share (Bloomberg ticker: CRWD), is registered
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which we
refer to as the Exchange Act, and is listed on The Nasdaq Stock

Historical Information
The following graph sets forth the historical performance of the
Reference Stock based on the weekly historical closing prices of
one share of the Reference Stock from June 14, 2019 through May 26,
2023. The Reference Stock commenced trading on The Nasdaq Stock
Market on June 12, 2019 and therefore has limited historical
performance. The closing price of one share of the Reference Stock
on June 6, 2023 was $153.04. We obtained the closing prices above
and below from the Bloomberg Professional® service
(“Bloomberg”), without independent verification. The closing prices
above and below may have been adjusted by Bloomberg for corporate
actions, such as stock splits, public offerings, mergers and
acquisitions, spin-offs, delistings and bankruptcy.
The historical closing prices of one share of the Reference Stock
should not be taken as an indication of future performance, and no
assurance can be given as to the closing price of one share of the
Reference Stock on the Observation Date. There can be no assurance
that the performance of the Reference Stock 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-I. Based on the advice of Davis Polk &
Wardwell LLP, our special tax counsel, and on current market
conditions, in determining our reporting responsibilities we intend
to treat the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes as units
each comprising: (x) a cash-settled Put Option written by you that
is terminated if an early redemption occurs and that, if not
terminated, in circumstances where the payment due at maturity is
less than $1,000 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest), requires
you to pay us an amount equal to that difference and (y) a Deposit
of $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount note to secure your potential
obligation under the Put Option, as more fully described in
“Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Tax Consequences
to U.S. Holders — Notes Treated as Units Each Comprising a Put
Option and a Deposit” in the accompanying product supplement, and
in particular in the subsection thereof entitled “— Notes with a
Term of More than One Year.” By purchasing the notes, you
agree (in the absence of an administrative determination or
judicial ruling to the contrary) to follow this treatment and the
allocation described in the following paragraph. However,
there are other reasonable treatments that the IRS or a court may
adopt, 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
PS-7
| Structured Investments
Callable Yield Notes Linked to the Class A Common Stock of
CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc.
|
 |
notice focuses on a number of issues, the most relevant of which
for investors in the notes are the character of income or loss
(including whether the Put Premium might be currently included as
ordinary income) and the degree, if any, to which income realized
by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding tax.
While it is not clear whether the notes would be viewed as similar
to the typical prepaid forward contract described in the notice, it
is possible that 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.
In determining our reporting responsibilities, we intend to treat
approximately 47.76% of each Interest Payment as interest on the
Deposit and the remainder as Put Premium. Assuming that the
treatment of the notes as units each comprising a Put Option and a
Deposit is respected, amounts treated as interest on the Deposit
will be taxed as ordinary income, while the Put Premium will not be
taken into account prior to sale or settlement, including a
settlement following an early redemption.
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, 2025 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 discussions above 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. You should
consult your tax adviser regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal
income tax consequences of an investment in the notes, including
possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by the
2007 notice. Purchasers who are not initial purchasers of
notes at the issue price should also consult their tax advisers
with respect to the tax consequences of an investment in the notes,
including possible alternative treatments, as well as the
allocation of the purchase price of the notes between the Deposit
and the Put Option.
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 “Hypothetical Payout Examples”
in this pricing supplement for an illustration of the risk-return
profile of the notes and “The Reference Stock” 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.
Validity of the Notes and the Guarantee
In the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, as special
products counsel to JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan
Chase & Co., when the notes offered by this pricing

indenture, the trustee and/or paying agent has made, in accordance
with the instructions from JPMorgan Financial, the appropriate
entries or notations in its records relating to the master global

have been delivered against payment as contemplated herein, such
notes will be valid and binding obligations of JPMorgan Financial
and the related guarantee will constitute a valid and binding
obligation of JPMorgan Chase & Co., enforceable in
accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally,
concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general
applicability (including, without limitation, concepts of good
faith, fair dealing and the lack of bad faith), provided
that such counsel expresses no opinion as to (i) the effect of
fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of
applicable law on the conclusions expressed above or (ii) any
provision of the indenture that purports to avoid the effect of
fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of
applicable law by limiting the amount of JPMorgan
Chase & Co.’s obligation under the related guarantee.
This opinion is given as of the date hereof and is limited to the
laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act.
In addition, this opinion is subject to customary assumptions about
the trustee’s authorization, execution and delivery of the
indenture and its authentication of the master note and the
validity, binding nature and enforceability of the indenture with
respect to the trustee, all as stated in the letter of such counsel
dated February 24, 2023, which was filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement on Form S-3 by JPMorgan Financial and
JPMorgan Chase & Co. on February 24, 2023.
