Automatic Call:
If the closing price of one share of the Reference
Stock on any Review Date (other than the final 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, equal to (a) $1,000 plus (b) the Contingent Interest Payment

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 Review Dates. The
hypothetical payments set forth below assume the following:
|
●
|
an Initial Value of $100.00;
|
|
●
|
an Interest Barrier and a Trigger Value of $80.00 (equal to 80.00% of the hypothetical Initial Value); and
|
|
●
|
a Contingent Interest Rate of 13.05% per annum (payable at a rate of 3.2625% per quarter).
|
The hypothetical Initial Value of $100.00 has been chosen for illustrative
purposes only and may not represent a likely actual Initial Value.
The actual Initial Value will be the closing price of one share of
the Reference Stock on the Pricing Date and will be provided in the 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 are automatically called on the first
Review Date.

|
Total Payment
|
$1,032.625 (3.2625% return)

Because the closing price of one share of the Reference Stock 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 $1,032.625 (or $1,000 plus the Contingent Interest Payment applicable to the first Review Date),
payable on the applicable Call Settlement Date. No further payments will be made on the notes.

and the Final Value is greater than or equal to the Trigger Value.

|
Because the notes have not been automatically called 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 $1,032.625
(or $1,000 plus the Contingent Interest Payment applicable to the final Review Date). When added to the Contingent Interest Payments
received with respect to the prior Review Dates, the total amount paid, for each $1,000 principal amount note, is $1,097.875.
Example 3 — Notes have NOT been automatically called
and the Final Value is less than the Trigger Value.

Because the notes have not been automatically called, the Final Value
is less than the Trigger Value and the Stock Return is
-30.00%, the payment at maturity will be $700.00 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:
$1,000 + [$1,000 × (-30.00%)] = $700.00

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” section of the accompanying prospectus supplement and product supplement.
|
●
|
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
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 20.00% of your principal amount at maturity and could lose all of your
principal amount at maturity.
|
|
●
|
THE NOTES DO NOT GUARANTEE THE PAYMENT OF INTEREST AND MAY NOT PAY ANY INTEREST AT ALL —
If the notes have not been automatically called, we will make a Contingent Interest Payment with respect to a Review Date only if the
closing price of one share of the Reference Stock on that Review Date is greater than or equal to the Interest Barrier. If the closing
price of one share of the Reference Stock on that Review Date is less than the Interest Barrier, no Contingent Interest Payment will be
made with respect to that Review Date. Accordingly, if the closing price of one share of the Reference Stock on each Review Date is less
than the Interest Barrier, you will not receive any interest payments over the term of the notes.
|
|
●
|
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 ANY CONTINGENT INTEREST PAYMENTS THAT MAY BE 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.
|
|
●
|
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.
|
|
●
|
THE BENEFIT PROVIDED BY THE TRIGGER VALUE MAY TERMINATE ON THE FINAL REVIEW DATE—
If the Final Value is less than the Trigger Value and the notes have not been automatically called, the benefit provided by the Trigger
Value will terminate and you will be fully exposed to any depreciation of the Reference Stock.
|
|
●
|
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 three months and you will not
receive any Contingent 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 REFERENCE STOCK OR HAVE ANY RIGHTS WITH RESPECT 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.
|
|
●
|
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 RISK OF THE CLOSING PRICE OF THE REFERENCE STOCK FALLING BELOW THE INTEREST BARRIER OR THE TRIGGER VALUE IS GREATER IF THE
PRICE OF THE REFERENCE STOCK IS VOLATILE.
|
|
●
|
LACK OF LIQUIDITY—
The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Accordingly, the price at which you may be able to trade your notes is likely
to depend on the price, if any, at which JPMS is willing to buy the notes. You may not be able to sell your notes. The notes are not designed
to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your notes to maturity.
|
|
●
|
THE FINAL TERMS AND VALUATION OF THE NOTES WILL BE PROVIDED IN THE PRICING SUPPLEMENT —
You should consider your potential investment in the notes based on the minimums for the estimated value of the notes and the Contingent
Interest Rate.
|
|
●
|
THE TAX DISCLOSURE IS SUBJECT TO CONFIRMATION —
The information set forth under “Tax Treatment” in this pricing supplement remains subject to confirmation by our special
tax counsel following the pricing of the notes. If that information cannot be confirmed by our tax counsel, you may be asked to accept
revisions to that information in connection with your purchase. Under these circumstances, if you decline to accept revisions to that
information, your purchase of the notes will be canceled.
|
|
●
|
THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES WILL BE LOWER THAN THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE (PRICE TO PUBLIC) OF THE NOTES —
The estimated value of the notes is only an estimate determined by reference to several factors. The original issue price of the notes
will exceed the estimated value of the notes because costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the notes are included in
the original issue price of the notes. These costs include the selling commissions, the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates
expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the notes and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations
under the notes. See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.
|
|
●
|
THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES DOES NOT REPRESENT FUTURE VALUES OF THE NOTES AND MAY DIFFER FROM OTHERS’ ESTIMATES —
See “The Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.
|
|
●
|
THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES IS DERIVED BY REFERENCE TO AN INTERNAL FUNDING RATE —
The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated value of the notes may differ from the market-implied funding rate
for vanilla fixed income instruments of a similar maturity issued by JPMorgan Chase & Co. or its affiliates. Any difference may be
based on, among other things, our and our affiliates’ view of the funding value of the notes as well as the higher issuance, operational
and ongoing liability management costs of the notes in comparison to those costs for the conventional fixed income instruments of JPMorgan
Chase & Co. This internal funding rate is based on certain market inputs and assumptions, which may prove to be incorrect, and is
intended to approximate the prevailing market replacement funding rate for the notes. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential
changes to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the notes and any secondary market prices of the notes. See “The
Estimated Value of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.

|
|
●
|
THE VALUE OF THE NOTES AS PUBLISHED BY JPMS (AND WHICH MAY BE REFLECTED ON CUSTOMER ACCOUNT STATEMENTS) MAY BE HIGHER THAN THE
THEN-CURRENT ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE NOTES FOR A LIMITED TIME PERIOD —
We generally expect that some of the costs included in the original issue price of the notes will be partially paid back to you in connection
with any repurchases of your notes by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period. See “Secondary
Market Prices of the Notes” in this pricing supplement for additional information relating to this initial period. Accordingly,
the estimated value of your notes during this initial period may be lower than the value of the notes as published by JPMS (and which
may be shown on your customer account statements).
|
|
●
|
SECONDARY MARKET PRICES OF THE NOTES WILL LIKELY BE LOWER THAN THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE OF THE NOTES —
Any secondary market prices of the notes will likely be lower than the original issue price of the notes because, among other things,
secondary market prices take into account our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances and, also, because
secondary market prices may exclude selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, and estimated hedging costs that are included
in the original issue price of the notes. As a result, the price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to buy the notes from you in secondary
market transactions, if at all, is likely to be lower than the original issue price. Any sale by you prior to the Maturity Date could
result in a substantial loss to you.
|
|
●
|
SECONDARY MARKET PRICES OF THE NOTES WILL BE IMPACTED BY MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS —
The secondary market price of the notes during their term will be impacted by a number of economic and market factors, which may either
offset or magnify each other, aside from the selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, estimated hedging costs and the price
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.

Tax Treatment
You should review carefully the section entitled “Material
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement no. 4-II. In determining our reporting responsibilities
we intend to treat (i) the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid forward contracts with associated contingent coupons
and (ii) any Contingent Interest Payments as ordinary income, as described in the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income
Tax Consequences — Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders — Notes Treated as Prepaid Forward Contracts with Associated Contingent
Coupons” in the accompanying product supplement. We expect to ask our special tax counsel to advise us that this is a reasonable
treatment, although 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 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 and the relevance of factors such
as the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked. 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
affect the tax consequences of an investment in the notes, possibly with retroactive effect. 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 the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the notes, including possible
alternative treatments and the issues presented by the notice described above.
Non-U.S. Holders — Tax Considerations. The U.S. federal
income tax treatment of Contingent Interest Payments is uncertain, and although we believe it is reasonable to take a position that Contingent
Interest Payments are not subject to U.S. withholding tax (at least if an applicable Form W-8 is provided), a withholding agent may nonetheless
withhold on these payments (generally at a rate of 30%, subject to the possible reduction of that rate under an applicable income tax
treaty), unless income from your notes is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if
an applicable treaty so requires, attributable to a permanent establishment in the United States). If you are not a United States person,
you are urged to consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the notes in light of
your particular circumstances.
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, we expect that Section 871(m) will not apply to the notes with regard to
Non-U.S. Holders. Our determination is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this determination. Section 871(m) is complex
and its application may depend on your particular circumstances, including whether you enter into other transactions with respect to an
Underlying Security. If necessary, further information regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) will be provided in the pricing
supplement for the notes. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) to the notes.
In the event of any withholding on the notes, we will not be required
to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts so withheld.
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 — The Estimated
Value of the Notes Is Derived by Reference to an Internal Funding Rate” in this pricing supplement.
The value of the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic
terms of the notes is derived from internal pricing models of our affiliates. These models are dependent on inputs such as the traded
market prices of comparable derivative instruments and on various other inputs, some of which are market-observable, and which can include
volatility, dividend rates, interest rates and other factors, as well as assumptions about future market events and/or environments. Accordingly,
the estimated value of the notes is determined when the terms of the notes are set based on market conditions and other relevant factors
and assumptions existing at that time.
The estimated value of the notes does not represent future values
of the notes and may differ from others’ estimates. Different pricing models and assumptions could provide valuations for the notes
that are greater than or less than the estimated value of the notes. In addition, market conditions and other relevant factors in the
future may change, and any assumptions may prove to be incorrect. On future dates, the value of the notes could change significantly based
on, among other things, changes in market conditions, our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s creditworthiness, interest rate movements
and other relevant factors, which may impact the price, if any, at which JPMS would be willing to buy notes from you in secondary market
transactions.
The estimated value of the notes will be lower than the original
issue price of the notes because costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the notes are included in the original issue price
of the notes. These costs include the selling commissions paid to JPMS and other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, the projected profits,
if any, that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the notes and the estimated
cost of hedging our obligations under the notes. Because hedging our obligations entails risk and may be influenced by market forces beyond
our control, this hedging may result in a profit that is more or less than expected, or it may result in a loss. A portion of the profits,
if any, realized in hedging our obligations under the notes may be allowed to other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, and we or one
or more of our affiliates will retain any remaining hedging profits. See “Selected Risk Considerations — The Estimated Value
of the Notes Will Be Lower Than the Original Issue Price (Price to Public) of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.
Secondary Market Prices
of the Notes
For information about factors that will impact any secondary market
prices of the notes, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Notes —
Secondary market prices of the notes will be impacted by many economic and market factors” in the accompanying product supplement.
In addition, we generally expect that some of the costs included in the original issue price of the notes will be partially paid back
to you in connection with any repurchases of your notes by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over an initial predetermined period.
These costs can include selling commissions, projected hedging profits, if any, and, in some circumstances, estimated hedging costs and
our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances. This initial predetermined time period is intended to be the
shorter of six months and one-half of the stated term of the notes. The length of any such initial period reflects the structure of the
notes, whether our affiliates expect to earn a profit in connection with our hedging activities, the estimated costs of hedging the notes
and when these costs are incurred, as determined by our affiliates. See “Selected Risk Considerations — 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.
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.
Additional Terms Specific
to the Notes
You may revoke your offer to purchase the notes at any time prior
to the time at which we accept such offer by notifying the applicable agent. We reserve the right to change the terms of, or reject any
offer to purchase, the notes prior to their issuance. In the event of any changes to the terms of the notes, we will notify you and you
will be asked to accept such changes in connection with your purchase. You may also choose to reject such changes, in which case we may
reject your offer to purchase.
You should read this pricing supplement together with the accompanying
prospectus, as supplemented by the accompanying prospectus supplement relating to our Series A medium-term notes of which these notes
are a part, and the more detailed information contained in the accompanying product supplement. This pricing supplement, together with
the documents listed below, contains the terms of the notes and supersedes all other prior or contemporaneous oral statements as well
as any other written materials including preliminary or indicative pricing terms, correspondence, trade ideas, structures for implementation,

and other advisers before you invest in the notes.
