Key Terms

The MerQube US Tech+ Vol Advantage Index

The MerQube US Tech+ Vol Advantage Index (the “Index”) was developed by MerQube (the “Index Sponsor” and “Index Calculation Agent”), in coordination with JPMS, and is maintained by the Index Sponsor and is calculated and published by the Index Calculation Agent. The Index was established on June 22, 2021. An affiliate of ours currently has a 10% equity interest in the Index Sponsor, with a right to appoint an employee of JPMS, another of our affiliates, as a member of the board of directors of the Index Sponsor.

Since February 9, 2024 (the “Amendment Effective Date”), the underlying asset to which the Index is linked (the “Underlying Asset”) has been an unfunded position in the QQQ Fund, calculated as the excess of the total return of the QQQ Fund over a notional financing cost. Prior to the Amendment Effective Date, the Underlying Asset was an unfunded rolling position in E-Mini Nasdaq-100 futures (the “Futures Contracts”).

The investment objective of the QQQ Fund is to seek to track the investment results, before fees and expenses, of the Nasdaq-100 Index^®. For more information about the QQQ Fund and the Nasdaq-100 Index^®, see “Background on the Invesco QQQ Trust^SM, Series 1” and “Background on the Nasdaq-100 Index^®,” respectively, in the accompanying underlying supplement.

The Index attempts to provide a dynamic rules-based exposure to the Underlying Asset, while targeting a level of implied volatility, with a maximum exposure to the Underlying Asset of 500% and a minimum exposure to the Underlying Asset of 0%. The Index is subject to a 6.0% per annum daily deduction, and the performance of the Underlying Asset is subject to a notional financing cost deducted daily.

On each weekly Index rebalance day, the exposure to the Underlying Asset is set equal to (a) the 35% implied volatility target (the “target volatility”) divided by (b) the one-week implied volatility of the QQQ Fund, subject to a maximum exposure of 500%. For example, if the implied volatility of the QQQ Fund is equal to 17.5%, the exposure to the Underlying Asset will equal 200% (or 35% / 17.5%) and if the implied volatility of the QQQ Fund is equal to 40%, the exposure to the Underlying Asset will equal 87.5% (or 35% / 40%). The Index’s exposure to the Underlying Asset will be greater than 100% when the implied volatility of the QQQ Fund is below 35%, and the Index’s exposure to the Underlying Asset will be less than 100% when the implied volatility of the QQQ Fund is above 35%. In general, the Index’s target volatility feature is expected to result in the volatility of the Index being more stable over time than if no target volatility feature were employed. No assurance can be provided that the volatility of the Index will be stable at any time. The Index uses the implied volatility of the QQQ Fund as a proxy for the realized volatility of the Underlying Asset.

The Index tracks the performance of the QQQ Fund, with distributions, if any, notionally reinvested, less the daily deduction of a notional financing cost. The notional financing cost is intended to approximate the cost of maintaining a position in the QQQ Fund using borrowed funds at a rate of interest equal to SOFR plus a spread of 0.50% per annum. SOFR, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, is intended to be a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by Treasury securities. The Index is an “excess return” index and not a “total return” index because, as part of the calculation of the level of the Index, the performance of the QQQ Fund is reduced by the notional financing cost. The notional financing cost has been deducted from the performance of the QQQ Fund since the Amendment Effective Date.

The 6.0% per annum daily deduction and the notional financing cost will offset any appreciation of the Underlying Asset, will heighten any depreciation of the Underlying Asset and will generally be a drag on the performance of the Index. The Index will trail the performance of an identical index without such deductions.

Holding the estimated value of the notes and market conditions constant, the Interest Rate, the Buffer Amount and the other economic terms available on the notes are more favorable to investors than the terms that would be available on a hypothetical note issued by us linked to an identical index without a daily deduction.  However, there can be no assurance that any improvement in the terms of the notes derived from the daily deduction will offset the negative effect of the daily deduction on the performance of the Index.  The return on the notes may be lower than the return on a hypothetical note issued by us linked to an identical index without a daily deduction.

The daily deduction and the volatility of the Index (as influenced by the Index’s target volatility feature) are two of the primary variables that affect the economic terms of the notes. Additionally, the daily deduction and volatility of the Index are two of the inputs our affiliates’ internal pricing models use to value the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the notes for purposes of determining the estimated value of the notes set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement. The daily deduction will effectively reduce the value of the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the notes. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” and “Selected Risk Considerations — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.

The Index is subject to risks associated with the use of significant leverage. The notional financing cost deducted daily will be magnified by any leverage provided by the Index. In addition, the Index may be significantly uninvested on any given day, and, in that case, will realize only a portion of any gains due to appreciation of the Underlying Asset on that day. The index deduction is deducted daily at a rate of 6.0% per annum, even when the Index is not fully invested.

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 Underlying Asset.

For additional information about the Index, see “The MerQube Vol Advantage Index Series” in the accompanying underlying supplement.

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 Examples

The following examples illustrate payments on the notes linked to a hypothetical Index, assuming a range of performances for the hypothetical Index on the Review Dates. The hypothetical payments set forth below assume the following:

·

an Initial Value of 100.00;

·

a Buffer Amount of 15.00%; and

·

an Interest Rate of 7.00% per annum.

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 level of the 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 the Index, please see the historical information set forth under “Hypothetical Back-Tested Data and Historical Information” 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 are automatically called on the first Review Date.

Date	Closing Level
First Review Date	105.00	Notes are automatically called
	Total Payment	$1,070.00 (7.00% return)

Because the closing level of the Index on the first Review Date is greater than or equal to the Initial Value, the notes will be automatically called for a cash payment, for each $1,000 principal amount note, of $1,005.8333 (or $1,000 plus the Interest Payment applicable to the corresponding Interest Payment Date), payable on the applicable Call Settlement 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 $1,070.00. No further payments will be made on the notes.

Example 2 — Notes have NOT been automatically called and the Final Value is greater than or equal to the Initial Value or less than the Initial Value by up to the Buffer Amount.

Date	Closing Level
First Review Date	95.00	Notes NOT automatically called
Second Review Date	90.00	Notes NOT automatically called
Third through Forty-Eighth Review Dates	Less than Initial Value	Notes NOT automatically called
Final Review Date	75.00	Final Value is less than the Initial Value by up to the Buffer Amount
	Total Payment	$1,350.00 (35.00% return)

Because the notes have not been automatically called and the Final Value is greater than or equal to the Initial Value or less than the Initial Value by up to the Buffer Amount, the payment at maturity, for each $1,000 principal amount note, will be $1,005.8333 (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 $1,350.00.

 

Example 3 — Notes have NOT been automatically called and the Final Value is less than the Initial Value by more than the Buffer Amount.

Date	Closing Level
First Review Date	80.00	Notes NOT automatically called
Second Review Date	70.00	Notes NOT automatically called
Third through Forty-Eighth Review Dates	Less than Initial Value	Notes NOT automatically called
Final Review Date	40.00	Final Value is less than the Initial Value by more than the Buffer Amount
	Total Payment	$900.00 (-10.00% return)

 

Because the notes have not been automatically called, the Final Value is less than the Initial Value by more than the Buffer Amount and the Index Return is -60.00%, the payment at maturity will be $555.8333 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:

$1,000 + [$1,000 × (-60.00% + 15.00%)] + $5.8333 = $555.8333

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 $900.00.

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 and in Annex A to the accompanying prospectus addendum.

Risks Relating to the Notes Generally

·

YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS —

The notes do not guarantee any return of principal. If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final Value is less than the Initial Value by more than 15.00%, you will lose 1% of the principal amount of your notes for every 1% that the Final Value is less than the Initial Value by more than 15.00%. Accordingly, under these circumstances, you will lose up to 85.00% of your principal amount at maturity.

·

THE LEVEL OF THE INDEX WILL INCLUDE A 6.0% PER ANNUM DAILY DEDUCTION —

The Index is subject to a 6.0% per annum daily deduction. As a result, the level of the Index will trail the value of an identically constituted synthetic portfolio that is not subject to any such deduction.

This deduction will place a significant drag on the performance of the Index, potentially offsetting positive returns on the Index’s investment strategy, exacerbating negative returns of its investment strategy and causing the level of the Index to decline steadily if the return of its investment strategy is relatively flat. The Index will not appreciate unless the return of its investment strategy is sufficient to offset the negative effects of this deduction, and then only to the extent that the return of its investment strategy is greater than this deduction. As a result of this deduction, the level of the Index may decline even if the return of its investment strategy is otherwise positive.

The daily deduction is one of the inputs our affiliates’ internal pricing models use to value the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the notes for purposes of determining the estimated value of the notes set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement. The daily deduction will effectively reduce the value of the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the notes. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” and “— Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.

·

THE LEVEL OF THE INDEX WILL INCLUDE THE DEDUCTION OF A NOTIONAL FINANCING COST —

Since the Amendment Effective Date, the performance of the Underlying Asset has been subject to a notional financing cost deducted daily. The notional financing cost is intended to approximate the cost of maintaining a position in the QQQ Fund using

borrowed funds at a rate of interest equal to the daily SOFR rate plus a fixed spread. The actual cost of maintaining a position in the QQQ Fund at any time may be less than the notional financing cost. As a result of this deduction, the level of the Index will trail the value of an identically constituted synthetic portfolio that is not subject to any such deduction.

·

CREDIT RISKS OF JPMORGAN FINANCIAL AND JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. —

Investors are dependent on our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s ability to pay all amounts due on the notes. Any actual or potential change in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s creditworthiness or credit spreads, as determined by the market for taking that credit risk, is likely to adversely affect the value of the notes. If we and JPMorgan Chase & Co. were to default on our payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the notes and you could lose your entire investment.

·

AS A FINANCE SUBSIDIARY, JPMORGAN FINANCIAL HAS NO INDEPENDENT OPERATIONS AND HAS LIMITED ASSETS —

As a finance subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co., we have no independent operations beyond the issuance and administration of our securities and the collection of intercompany obligations. Aside from the initial capital contribution from JPMorgan Chase & Co., substantially all of our assets relate to obligations of JPMorgan Chase & Co. to make payments under loans made by us to JPMorgan Chase & Co. or under other intercompany agreements. As a result, we are dependent upon payments from JPMorgan Chase & Co. to meet our obligations under the notes. We are not a key operating subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. and in a bankruptcy or resolution of JPMorgan Chase & Co. we are not expected to have sufficient resources to meet our obligations in respect of the notes as they come due. If JPMorgan Chase & Co. does not make payments to us and we are unable to make payments on the notes, you may have to seek payment under the related guarantee by JPMorgan Chase & Co., and that guarantee will rank pari passu with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of JPMorgan Chase & Co. For more information, see the accompanying prospectus addendum.

·

THE 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 Index, which may be significant. You will not participate in any appreciation of the 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 and you will not receive any Interest Payments after the applicable Call Settlement 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 the notes are called 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 QQQ FUND OR THE SECURITIES HELD BY THE QQQ FUND OR HAVE ANY RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO THE QQQ FUND OR THOSE SECURITIES.

·

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, the Index and the components of the Index.

·

LACK OF LIQUIDITY —

The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Accordingly, the price at which you may be able to trade your notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which JPMS is willing to buy the notes. You may not be able to sell your notes. The notes are not designed to be short term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and wiling to hold your notes to maturity.

Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest

·

POTENTIAL CONFLICTS —

We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the notes. In performing these duties, our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s economic interests are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the notes. It is possible that hedging or trading activities of ours or our affiliates in connection with the notes could result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value of the notes declines. Please refer to “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest” in the accompanying product supplement.

An affiliate of ours currently has a 10% equity interest in the Index Sponsor, with a right to appoint an employee of JPMS, another of our affiliates, as a member of the board of directors of the Index Sponsor. The Index Sponsor can implement policies, make judgments or enact changes to the Index methodology that could negatively affect the performance of the Index. The Index Sponsor can also alter, discontinue or suspend calculation or dissemination of the Index. Any of these actions could adversely affect the value of the notes. The Index Sponsor has no obligation to consider your interests in calculating, maintaining or revising the Index, and we, JPMS, our other affiliates and our respective employees are under no obligation to consider your interests as an investor in the notes in connection with the role of our affiliate as an owner of an equity interest in the Index Sponsor or the role of an employee of JPMS as a member of the board of directors of the Index Sponsor.

In addition, JPMS worked with the Index Sponsor in developing the guidelines and policies governing the composition and calculation of the Index. Although judgments, policies and determinations concerning the Index were made by JPMS, JPMorgan Chase & Co., as the parent company of JPMS, ultimately controls JPMS. The policies and judgments for which JPMS was responsible could have an impact, positive or negative, on the level of the Index and the value of your notes. JPMS is under no obligation to consider your interests as an investor in the notes in its role in developing the guidelines and policies governing the Index or making judgments that may affect the level of the Index.

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 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.

Risks Relating to the Index

·

THE INDEX SPONSOR MAY ADJUST THE INDEX IN A WAY THAT AFFECTS ITS LEVEL, AND THE INDEX SPONSOR HAS NO OBLIGATION TO CONSIDER YOUR INTERESTS —

The Index Sponsor is responsible for maintaining the Index. The Index Sponsor can add, delete or substitute the components of the Index or make other methodological changes that could affect the level of the Index. The Index Sponsor has no obligation to consider your interests in calculating or revising the Index.

·

THE INDEX MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL OR OUTPERFORM ANY ALTERNATIVE STRATEGY THAT MIGHT BE EMPLOYED IN RESPECT OF THE UNDERLYING ASSET —

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 with respect to the Underlying Asset.

·

THE INDEX MAY NOT APPROXIMATE ITS TARGET VOLATILITY —

No assurance can be given that the Index will maintain an annualized realized volatility that approximates its target volatility of 35%. The Index’s target volatility is a level of implied volatility and therefore the actual realized volatility of the Index may be greater or less than the target volatility. On each weekly Index rebalance day, the Index’s exposure to the Underlying Asset is set equal to (a) the 35% implied volatility target divided by (b) the one-week implied volatility of the QQQ Fund, subject to a maximum exposure of 500%. The Index uses the implied volatility of the QQQ Fund as a proxy for the realized volatility of the Underlying Asset. However, there is no guarantee that the methodology used by the Index to determine the implied volatility of the QQQ Fund will be representative of the realized volatility of the QQQ Fund. The volatility of the Underlying Asset on any day may change quickly and unexpectedly and realized volatility may differ significantly from implied volatility. In general, over time, the realized volatility of the QQQ Fund has tended to be lower than its implied volatility; however, at any time that realized volatility may exceed its implied volatility, particularly during periods of market volatility. Accordingly, the actual annualized realized volatility of the Index 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 INDEX IS SUBJECT TO RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE USE OF SIGNIFICANT LEVERAGE —

On a weekly Index rebalance day, the Index will employ leverage to increase the exposure of the Index to the Underlying Asset if the implied volatility of the QQQ Fund is below 35%, subject to a maximum exposure of 500%. Under normal market conditions in the past, the QQQ Fund has tended to exhibit an implied volatility below 35%. Accordingly, the Index has generally employed leverage in the past, except during periods of elevated volatility. When leverage is employed, any movements in the prices of the Underlying Asset will result in greater changes in the level of the Index than if leverage were not used. In particular, the use of leverage will magnify any negative performance of the Underlying Asset, which, in turn, would negatively affect the performance of the Index. Because the Index’s leverage is adjusted only on a weekly basis, in situations where a significant increase in volatility is accompanied by a significant decline in the price of the Underlying Asset, the level of the Index may decline significantly before the following Index rebalance day when the Index’s exposure to the Underlying Asset would be reduced. In addition, the notional financing cost deducted daily will be magnified by any leverage provided by the Index.

·

THE INDEX MAY BE SIGNIFICANTLY UNINVESTED —

On a weekly Index rebalance day, the Index’s exposure to the Underlying Asset will be less than 100% when the implied volatility of the QQQ Fund is above 35%. If the Index’s exposure to the Underlying Asset 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 Underlying Asset on any such day. The 6.0% per annum deduction is deducted daily, even when the Index is not fully invested.

·

AN INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES WILL BE SUBJECT TO RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH NON-U.S. SECURITIES —

Some of the equity securities held by the QQQ Fund are issued by non-U.S. companies. Investments in securities linked to the value of such non-U.S. equity securities involve risks associated with the home countries of the issuers of those non-U.S. equity

securities. The prices of securities issued by non-U.S. companies may be affected by political, economic, financial and social factors in the home countries of those issuers, or global regions, including changes in government, economic and fiscal policies and currency exchange laws.

·

THERE ARE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE QQQ FUND —

The QQQ Fund is subject to management risk, which is the risk that the investment strategies of the QQQ Fund’s investment adviser, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. These constraints could adversely affect the market price of the shares of the QQQ Fund and, consequently, the value of the notes.

THE PERFORMANCE AND MARKET VALUE OF THE QQQ FUND, PARTICULARLY DURING PERIODS OF MARKET VOLATILITY, MAY NOT CORRELATE WITH THE PERFORMANCE OF THE QQQ FUND’S UNDERLYING INDEX AS WELL AS THE NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE —

The QQQ Fund does not fully replicate its underlying index and may hold securities different from those included in its underlying index. In addition, the performance of the QQQ Fund will reflect additional transaction costs and fees that are not included in the calculation of its underlying index. All of these factors may lead to a lack of correlation between the performance of the QQQ Fund and its underlying index. In addition, corporate actions with respect to the equity securities underlying the QQQ Fund (such as mergers and spin-offs) may impact the variance between the performances of the QQQ Fund and its underlying index. Finally, because the shares of the QQQ Fund are traded on a securities exchange and are subject to market supply and investor demand, the market value of one share of the QQQ Fund may differ from the net asset value per share of the QQQ Fund.

During periods of market volatility, securities underlying the QQQ Fund may be unavailable in the secondary market, market participants may be unable to calculate accurately the net asset value per share of the QQQ Fund and the liquidity of the QQQ Fund may be adversely affected. This kind of market volatility may also disrupt the ability of market participants to create and redeem shares of the QQQ Fund. Further, market volatility may adversely affect, sometimes materially, the prices at which market participants are willing to buy and sell shares of the QQQ Fund. As a result, under these circumstances, the market value of shares of the QQQ Fund may vary substantially from the net asset value per share of the QQQ Fund. For all of the foregoing reasons, the performance of the QQQ Fund may not correlate with the performance of its underlying index as well as the net asset value per share of the QQQ Fund, which could materially and adversely affect the value of the notes in the secondary market and/or reduce any payment on the notes.

HYPOTHETICAL BACK-TESTED DATA RELATING TO THE INDEX DO NOT REPRESENT ACTUAL HISTORICAL DATA AND ARE SUBJECT TO INHERENT LIMITATIONS, AND THE HISTORICAL AND HYPOTHETICAL BACK-TESTED PERFORMANCE OF THE INDEX ARE NOT INDICATIONS OF ITS FUTURE PERFORMANCE —

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. 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. 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.

In addition, the QQQ Fund replaced the Futures Contracts as the Underlying Asset on the Amendment Effective Date. No assurance can be provided that the QQQ Fund is an appropriate substitute for the Futures Contracts. This replacement may adversely affect the performance of the Index and the value of the notes, as the QQQ Fund, subject to a notional financing cost, may perform worse, perhaps significantly worse, than the Futures Contracts. The Index lacks any operating history with the QQQ Fund as the Underlying Asset prior to the Amendment Effective Date and may perform in unanticipated ways. Investors in the notes should bear this difference in mind when evaluating the historical and hypothetical back-tested performance shown in this pricing supplement.

OTHER KEY RISK:

o

THE INDEX WAS ESTABLISHED ON JUNE 22, 2021 AND MAY PERFORM IN UNANTICIPATED WAYS.

Please refer to the “Risk Factors” section of the accompanying underlying supplement for more details regarding the above-listed and other risks.

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 June 18, 2021, and the historical performance of the Index based on the weekly historical closing levels of the Index from June 25, 2021 through September 6, 2024. The Index was established on June 22, 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 September 6, 2024 was 10,079.40. 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, and the Historical and Hypothetical Back-Tested Performance of the Index Are Not Indications of Its Future Performance” 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 any Review Date. There can be no assurance that the performance of the Index will result in the return of any of your principal amount in excess of $150.00 per $1,000 principal amount note, subject to the credit risks of JPMorgan Financial and JPMorgan Chase & Co.

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.

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 automatic call 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 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 a portion of each Interest Payment equal to approximately 5.56% per annum times the amount of the Deposit times the number of days in the applicable period divided by 365 as interest on the Deposit (so that the amount allocated as interest on the Deposit will vary from Interest Payment to Interest Payment depending on the number of days in the applicable period) and the remainder of each Interest Payment 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 automatic call.

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, 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 MerQube US Tech+ Vol Advantage 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.

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 supplement have been issued by JPMorgan Financial pursuant to the 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 note that represents such notes (the “master note”), and such notes 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.
