Market Linked Securities — Auto-Callable with
Contingent Absolute Return and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Class A Common
Stock of MicroStrategy Incorporated due February 20, 2029 |
n Linked
to the Class A common stock of MicroStrategy Incorporated (the “Underlying Stock”)
n Unlike
ordinary debt securities, the securities do not pay interest or repay a fixed amount of principal at maturity and are subject to potential
automatic call upon the terms described below. Whether the securities are automatically called for a fixed call premium or, if not automatically
called, the maturity payment amount, will depend, in each case, on the stock closing price of the Underlying Stock on the relevant call
date (including the final calculation day).
n Automatic
Call. If the stock closing price of the Underlying Stock on any call date (occurring monthly, beginning after approximately one year
and ending on the final calculation day) is greater than or equal to the call value, the securities will be automatically called for the
principal amount plus the call premium applicable to that call date. The call premium applicable to each call date will be a percentage
of the principal amount that increases for each call date based on a simple (non-compounding) return of approximately at least 26.75%
per annum (to be provided in the pricing supplement). Please see “Terms of the Securities — Call Dates and Call Premiums”
below for the call dates and call premiums. The call value is 80.00% of the starting price on each call date.
n Maturity
Payment Amount. If the securities are not automatically called on or prior to the final calculation day, at maturity, you will receive
a maturity payment amount that may be greater than or less than the principal amount of the securities, depending on the performance of
the Underlying Stock from the starting price to the ending price. The maturity payment amount will reflect the following terms:
n If
the price of the Underlying Stock is less than the call value but greater than or equal to 50% of the starting price (the “threshold
price”), you will receive the principal amount plus a positive return equal to the absolute value of the percentage decline in the
price of the Underlying Stock from the starting value to the ending price, which will be effectively capped at a positive return of 50%.
n If
the price of the Underlying Stock is less than the threshold price, you will receive less than the principal amount and will have full
downside exposure to the decrease in the price of the Underlying Stock from the starting price, and you will lose more than 50%, and possibly
all, of the principal amount.
n Investors
may lose some or all of the principal amount.
n If
the securities are automatically called, the positive return on the securities will be limited to the applicable call premium, even if
the stock closing price of the Underlying Stock on the applicable call date significantly exceeds the starting price. Therefore, you will
not have the opportunity to participate in any appreciation of the Underlying Stock beyond the applicable fixed call premium or earn any
positive return from any depreciation of the Underlying Stock due to the absolute return feature.
n The
securities are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, which we refer to as JPMorgan Financial,
the payment on which is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. Any payment on the securities is subject
to the credit risk of JPMorgan Financial, as issuer of the securities, and the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase & Co., as guarantor
of the securities.
n No
periodic interest payments or dividends
n No
exchange listing; designed to be held to maturity |
The securities have complex features and investing
in the securities involves risks not associated with an investment in conventional debt securities. See “Risk Factors” beginning
on page S-2 of the accompanying prospectus supplement, Annex A to the accompanying prospectus addendum, “Risk Factors” beginning
on page PS-11 of the accompanying product supplement and “Selected Risk Considerations” on page PS-11 in this pricing supplement.

If the stock closing price of the Underlying Stock on any call date is greater

Call Settlement Date1, 2: |
Three business days after the applicable call date, provided that the call settlement date for the final call date is the stated maturity date |
Maturity Payment Amount: |
If the securities are not automatically called on or prior to the final calculation

$1,000 + ($1,000 × absolute

price to the ending price, and you will lose more than 50%, and possibly all, of the principal amount of your securities at maturity. |
Stock Return: |
The “stock return” is the percentage change from the starting
price to the ending price, calculated as follows:
ending price – starting price
starting price |
Absolute Stock Return: |
The “absolute stock return” is the absolute value of the stock return. For example, a -5.00% stock return will result in a +5.00% absolute stock return. |
Starting Price: |
, the stock closing price of the Underlying Stock on the pricing date |
Ending Price: |
The “ending price” will be the stock closing price of the Underlying Stock on the final calculation day |
Call Value: |
, 80.00% of the starting price |
Threshold Price: |
, 50.00% of the starting price |

Additional
Information about the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Securities
You may revoke your offer to purchase the securities 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 securities prior to their issuance. In the event of any changes to the terms of the securities, 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 securities are a part,
the accompanying prospectus addendum 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 securities 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, sample structures, fact sheets, brochures or other educational materials of ours. You should carefully
consider, among other things, the matters set forth in the “Risk Factors” sections of the accompanying prospectus supplement
and the accompanying product supplement and in Annex A to the accompanying prospectus addendum, as the securities involve risks not associated
with conventional debt securities. We urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers before you invest
in the securities.
You may access these documents on the SEC website at www.sec.gov as follows
(or if such address has changed, by reviewing our filings for the relevant date on the SEC website):
Our Central Index Key, or CIK, on the SEC website is 1665650, and JPMorgan
Chase & Co.’s CIK is 19617. As used in this pricing supplement, “we,” “us” and “our”
refer to JPMorgan Financial.
Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Contingent Absolute Return and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Class A Common Stock of MicroStrategy Incorporated due February 20, 2029
The
Estimated Value of the Securities
The estimated value of the securities 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 securities, valued using the internal funding rate described below, and (2) the derivative or derivatives
underlying the economic terms of the securities. The estimated value of the securities does not represent a minimum price at which JPMS
would be willing to buy your securities in any secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The internal funding rate used in the determination
of the estimated value of the securities 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 securities as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability management
costs of the securities 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 securities. The use of an internal funding rate and any potential changes to that
rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the securities and any secondary market prices of the securities. For additional information,
see “Selected Risk Considerations — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Securities —
The Estimated Value of the Securities 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 securities 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 securities is determined when the terms of the
securities are set based on market conditions and other relevant factors and assumptions existing at that time. See “Selected Risk
Considerations — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of the Securities — The Estimated Value
of the Securities Does Not Represent Future Values of the Securities and May Differ from Others’ Estimates” in this pricing
supplement.
The estimated value of the securities will be lower than the
original issue price of the securities because costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the securities are included in the
original issue price of the securities. These costs include the selling commissions paid to WFS (which WFS has advised us includes selling
concessions and distribution expense fees), the projected profits, if any, that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent
in hedging our obligations under the securities and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the securities. 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 securities
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 Securities
— The Estimated Value of the Securities Will Be Lower Than the Original Issue Price (Price to Public) of the Securities” in
this pricing supplement.
Secondary
Market Prices of the Securities
For information about factors that will impact any secondary
market prices of the securities, see “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary Market Prices of
the Notes — Secondary market prices of the securities 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 securities will
be partially paid back to you in connection with any repurchases of your securities by JPMS in an amount that will decline to zero over
an initial predetermined period that is intended to be approximately four months. The length of any such initial period reflects the structure
of the securities, whether our affiliates expect to earn a profit in connection with our hedging activities, the estimated costs of hedging
the securities 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 Securities — The Value of the Securities as Published by JPMS
(and Which May Be Reflected on Customer Account Statements) May Be Higher Than the Then-Current Estimated Value of the Securities for
a Limited Time Period” in this pricing supplement.
Supplemental
Use of Proceeds
The securities are offered to meet investor demand for products
that reflect the risk-return profile and market exposure provided by the securities. See “Hypothetical Examples and Returns”
in this pricing supplement for an illustration of the risk-return profile of the securities and “The Underlying Stock” in
this pricing supplement for a description of the market exposure provided by the securities.
The original issue price of the securities is equal to the
estimated value of the securities plus the selling commissions paid to WFS (which WFS has advised us includes selling concessions and
distribution expense fees), plus (minus) the projected profits (losses) that our affiliates expect to realize for assuming risks inherent
in hedging our obligations under the securities, plus the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the securities.
Supplemental
Terms of the Securities
Any values of the Underlying Stock, 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 securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the indenture governing
the securities, that amendment will become effective without consent of the holders of the securities or any other party.

Investor
Considerations
The securities are not appropriate for all investors.
The securities may be an appropriate investment for you if all of the following statements are true:
| § | You do not seek an investment that produces periodic interest or coupon payments or other sources of current income. |
| § | You understand that the absolute stock return feature applies only if the securities are not automatically called and the Underlying
Stock is less than the call value but is greater than or equal to the threshold price, that any positive return in the event that the
ending price is less than the call value is limited to 50% and that any decline in the ending price from the starting price below the
threshold price will result in a loss, rather than a positive return, on the securities. |
| § | You anticipate that the stock closing price of the Underlying Stock will be greater than or equal to the call value on at least one
call date. |
| § | You are willing and able to accept that you will not participate in any appreciation of the Underlying Stock, which may be significant,
and that any potential return on the securities is limited to the applicable call premium, if any, paid on the securities. |
| § | You are willing and able to accept the risk that, if the securities are not automatically called and the ending price is less than
the threshold price, you will lose more than 50%, and possibly all, of the principal amount of your securities at maturity. |
| § | You are willing and able to accept that if the securities are automatically call, you will forgo participation in any appreciation
of the Underlying Stock or any positive return from any depreciation of the Underlying Stock due to the absolute stock return feature. |
| § | You are willing and able to accept the risks associated with an investment linked to the performance of the Underlying Stock, as explained
in more detail in the “Selected Risk Considerations” section of this pricing supplement. |
| § | You understand and accept that you will not be entitled to receive dividends or distributions that may be paid to holders of the Underlying
Stock, nor will you have any voting rights with respect to the Underlying Stock. |
| § | You are willing and able to accept the risk that the securities may be automatically called prior to maturity and that you may not
be able to reinvest your money in an alternative investment with comparable risk and yield. |
| § | You do not seek an investment for which there will be an active secondary market and you are willing and able to hold the securities
to maturity if the securities are not automatically called. |
| § | You are willing and able to assume our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s credit risks for all payments on the securities. |
The securities may not be an appropriate investment for
you if any of the following statements are true:
| § | You seek an investment that produces periodic interest or coupon payments or other sources of current income. |
| § | You anticipate that the stock closing price of the Underlying Stock will be less than the call value on each call date. |
| § | You are unwilling or unable to accept that the absolute stock return feature applies only if the securities are not automatically
called and the Underlying Stock decreases from the call value but is greater than or equal to the threshold price, that any positive return
in the event that the ending price is less than the call value is limited to 50% and that any decline in the ending price from the starting
price below the threshold price will result in a loss, rather than a positive return, on the securities. |
| § | You seek an investment that participates in the full appreciation of the Underlying Stock rather than an investment with a return
that is limited to the applicable call premium, if any, paid on the securities. |
| § | You seek an investment that provides for the full repayment of principal at maturity and/or you are unwilling or unable to accept
the risk that, if the securities are not automatically called and the ending price is less than the threshold price, you will lose more
than 50%, and possibly all, of the principal amount of your securities at maturity. |
| § | You are unwilling or unable to accept that if the securities are automatically call, you will forgo participation in any appreciation
of the Underlying Stock or any positive return from any depreciation of the Underlying Stock due to the absolute stock return feature. |

| § | You seek an investment that entitles you to dividends or distributions that may be paid to holders of the Underlying Stock, or voting
rights with respect to the Underlying Stock. |
| § | You are unwilling or unable to accept the risk that the securities may be automatically called prior to maturity and that you may
not be able to reinvest your money in an alternative investment with comparable risk and yield. |

The considerations identified above are not exhaustive.
Whether or not the securities are an appropriate investment for you will depend on your individual circumstances, and you should reach
an investment decision only after you and your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors have carefully considered the appropriateness
of an investment in the securities in light of your particular circumstances. You should also review carefully the “Selected Risk
Considerations” section in this pricing supplement, the “Risk Factors” sections in the accompanying prospectus supplement
and product supplement and Annex A to the accompanying prospectus addendum. For more information about the Underlying Stock, please see
the section titled “The Underlying Stock” below.

Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Class A Common Stock of MicroStrategy Incorporated due February 20, 2029
Determining
Timing and Amount of Payment on the Securities
Whether the securities are automatically called on any
call date for the applicable call premium will each be determined based on the stock closing price of the Underlying Stock on the applicable
call date as follows:
If the securities are not automatically called, then
on the stated maturity date, you will receive a cash payment per security (the maturity payment amount) calculated as follows:

Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Class A Common Stock of MicroStrategy Incorporated due February 20, 2029
Selected
Risk Considerations
An investment in the securities involves significant risks.
Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in the Underlying Stock. Some of the risks that apply to an investment
in the securities are summarized below, but we urge you to read the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the securities generally
in the “Risk Factors” sections of the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying product supplement and in Annex
A to the accompanying prospectus addendum. You should not purchase the securities unless you understand and can bear the risks of investing
in the securities.
Risks Relating to the Securities Generally
| · | If the Securities Are Not Automatically Called and the Ending Price Is Less Than the Threshold Price,
You Will Lose More Than 50%, and Possibly All, of the Principal Amount of Your Securities at Maturity — The securities do not
guarantee the full return of principal. If the securities are not automatically called, the return on the securities at maturity is linked
to the performance of the Underlying Stock and will depend on the extent to which the Underlying Stock has depreciated. If the ending
price is less than the threshold price, you will lose 1% of the principal amount of the securities for every 1% that the ending price
is less than the starting price (expressed as a percentage of the starting price). Accordingly, under these circumstances, you will lose
more than 50%, and possibly all, of your principal amount at maturity. |
| · | If the Securities Are Not Automatically Called, Your Potential for a Positive Return from Depreciation
of the Underlying Stock Is Limited — The absolute stock return feature applies only if the securities are not automatically
called and the ending price of the Underlying Stock is less than the call value but greater than or equal to the threshold price, which
is equal to 50% of the starting price. Therefore, any potential return on the securities in the event that the securities are not
automatically called and the ending price of the Underlying Stock is less than the starting price is limited to 50%. Any decline
in the ending price of the Underlying Stock from the starting price below the threshold price will result in a loss, rather than a positive
return, on the securities. |
| · | If the Securities Are Automatically Called, the Potential Return on the Securities Is Limited to the Applicable
Call Premium — If the securities are automatically called, the potential return on the securities is limited to the applicable
call premium, regardless of any appreciation of the Underlying Stock, which may be significant. You will not have the opportunity to participate
in any appreciation of the Underlying Stock or earn any positive return from any depreciation of the Underlying Stock due to the absolute
stock return feature. Therefore, your return on the securities may be lower than the return on a direct investment in the Underlying Stock.
Furthermore, if the securities are called on an earlier call date, you will receive a lower call premium than if the securities were called
on a later call date, and accordingly, if the securities are called on one of the earlier call dates, you will not receive the highest
potential call premium. |
| · | You Will Be Subject to Reinvestment Risk — If your securities are automatically called early,
the term of the securities may be reduced to as short as approximately one year. There is no guarantee that you would be able to reinvest
the proceeds from an investment in the securities at a comparable return for a similar level of risk in the event the securities are automatically
called prior to maturity. Even in cases where the securities are called before maturity, you are not entitled
to any fees and commissions described on the front cover of this pricing supplement. |
| · | The Securities Are Subject to the 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 securities.
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 securities. If we and JPMorgan Chase & Co.
were to default on our payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the securities 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 securities. 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 securities as they come due. If JPMorgan Chase & Co. does not make payments to us and we are unable to make payments
on the securities, 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 Benefit Provided by the Threshold Price May Terminate on the Final Calculation Day — If
the ending price is less than the threshold price and the securities have not been automatically called, the benefit provided by the threshold
price will terminate and you will be fully exposed to any depreciation of the Underlying Stock. |
Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Contingent Absolute Return and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Class A Common Stock of MicroStrategy Incorporated due February 20, 2029
| · | No Interest or Dividend Payments or Voting Rights — As a holder of the securities, you will
not receive interest payments, and you will not have voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions or other
rights that holders of the Underlying Stock would have. |
| · | Lack of Liquidity — The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Accordingly,
the price at which you may be able to trade your securities is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which JPMS or WFS is willing
to buy the securities. You may not be able to sell your securities. The securities are not designed to be short-term trading instruments.
Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your securities to maturity. |
| · | The Final Terms and Estimated Valuation of the Securities Will Be Provided in the Pricing Supplement
— You should consider your potential investment in the securities based on the minimums for the estimated value of the securities
and the call premiums. |
| · | The U.S. Federal Tax Consequences of the Securities Are Uncertain, and May Be Adverse to a Holder of
the Securities — See “Tax Considerations” below and “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Notes Generally
— The tax consequences of an investment in the notes are uncertain” in the accompanying product supplement. |
Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest
| · | Potential Conflicts — We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance
of the securities, including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the securities and making the assumptions used
to determine the pricing of the securities and the estimated value of the securities when the terms of the securities are set, which we
refer to as the estimated value of the securities. In performing these duties, our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s economic
interests and the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as
an investor in the securities. In addition, our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s business activities, including hedging
and trading activities, could cause our and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s economic interests to be adverse to yours and could
adversely affect any payment on the securities and the value of the securities. It is possible that hedging or trading activities of ours
or our affiliates in connection with the securities could result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value of the
securities declines. Please refer to “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest” in the accompanying product
supplement for additional information about these risks. |
Risks Relating to the Estimated Value
and Secondary Market Prices of the Securities
| · | The Estimated Value of the Securities Will Be Lower Than the Original Issue Price (Price to Public) of
the Securities — The estimated value of the securities is only an estimate determined by reference to several factors. The original
issue price of the securities will exceed the estimated value of the securities because costs associated with selling, structuring and
hedging the securities are included in the original issue price of the securities. 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 securities and
the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the securities. See “The Estimated Value of the Securities” in this pricing
supplement. |
| · | The Estimated Value of the Securities Does Not Represent Future Values of the Securities and May Differ
from Others’ Estimates — The estimated value of the securities is determined by reference to internal pricing models of
our affiliates when the terms of the securities are set. This estimated value of the securities is based on market conditions and other
relevant factors existing at that time and assumptions about market parameters, which can include volatility, dividend rates, interest
rates and other factors. Different pricing models and assumptions could provide valuations for the securities that are greater than or
less than the estimated value of the securities. 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 securities 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 securities from you in secondary market
transactions. See “The Estimated Value of the Securities” in this pricing supplement. |
| · | The Estimated Value of the Securities Is Derived by Reference to an Internal Funding Rate —
The internal funding rate used in the determination of the estimated value of the securities 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 securities as well as the higher issuance,
operational and ongoing liability management costs of the securities 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 securities. The use of an internal
funding rate and any potential changes to that rate may have an adverse effect on the terms of the securities and any secondary market
prices of the securities. See “The Estimated Value of the Securities” in this pricing supplement. |
Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Contingent Absolute Return and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Class A Common Stock of MicroStrategy Incorporated due February 20, 2029
| · | The Value of the Securities as Published by JPMS (and Which May Be Reflected on Customer Account Statements)
May Be Higher Than the Then-Current Estimated Value of the Securities for a Limited Time Period — We generally expect that some
of the costs included in the original issue price of the securities will be partially paid back to you in connection with any repurchases
of your securities 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. See “Secondary Market Prices of the Securities” in this pricing supplement for
additional information relating to this initial period. Accordingly, the estimated value of your securities during this initial period
may be lower than the value of the securities as published by JPMS (and which may be shown on your customer account statements). |
| · | Secondary Market Prices of the Securities Will Likely Be Lower Than the Original Issue Price of the Securities
— Any secondary market prices of the securities will likely be lower than the original issue price of the securities 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 securities. As a result, the price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to buy
securities 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 stated maturity date could result in a substantial loss to you. See the immediately following risk consideration for information
about additional factors that will impact any secondary market prices of the securities. |
The securities are not designed
to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your securities to maturity. See “—
Risks Relating to the Securities Generally — Lack of Liquidity” above.
| · | Many Economic and Market Factors Will Impact the Value of the Securities — As described under
“The Estimated Value of the Securities” in this pricing supplement, the securities can be thought of as securities that combine
a fixed-income debt component with one or more derivatives. As a result, the factors that influence the values of fixed-income debt
and derivative instruments will also influence the terms of the securities at issuance and their value in the secondary market.
Accordingly, the secondary market price of the securities 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 Underlying Stock, including: |
| · | any actual or potential change in our or JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s
creditworthiness or credit spreads; |
| · | customary bid-ask spreads for similarly sized trades; |
| · | our internal secondary market funding rates for structured debt issuances; |
| · | the actual and expected volatility of the Underlying Stock; |
| · | the time to maturity of the securities; |
| · | the dividend rate on the Underlying Stock; |
| · | the occurrence of certain events affecting the Underlying Stock that may or may not require an adjustment to the adjustment factor
of the Underlying Stock; |
| · | interest and yield rates in the market generally; and |
| · | a variety of other economic, financial, political, regulatory and judicial events. |
Additionally, independent pricing vendors and/or third party broker-dealers
may publish a price for the securities, which may also be reflected on customer account statements. This price may be different
(higher or lower) than the price of the securities, if any, at which JPMS may be willing to purchase your securities in the secondary
market.
Risks Relating to the Underlying
Stock
| · | No Affiliation with the Underlying Stock Issuer — We are not affiliated
with the Underlying Stock Issuer. We have not independently verified any of the information about the Underlying Stock Issuer contained
in this pricing supplement. You should make your own investigation into the Underlying Stock and the Underlying Stock Issuer.
We are not responsible for the Underlying Stock Issuer’s public disclosure of information, whether contained in SEC filings or otherwise. |
| · | The Anti-Dilution Protection Is Limited and May Be Discretionary — The
calculation agent will make adjustments to the adjustment factor for the Underlying Stock and other adjustments for certain corporate
events affecting the Underlying Stock. However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment in response to all events that
could affect the Underlying Stock. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to make an adjustment, the value
of the securities may be |

Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Class A Common Stock of MicroStrategy Incorporated due February 20, 2029
materially and adversely affected. Subject to the
foregoing, the calculation agent is under no obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the securities in making these determinations.
| · | Any Payment on the Securities Will Depend upon the Performance of the Underlying Stock and Therefore the
Securities Are Subject to the Following Risks, Each as Discussed in More Detail in the Accompanying Product Supplement. |
| · | The Securities May Become Linked to the Common Stock of a Company Other Than the Original Underlying Stock
Issuer. |
| · | You Will Have No Ownership Rights in the Underlying Stock. Investing in the securities is not
equivalent to investing directly in the Underlying Stock. As a holder of the securities, you will not have any ownership interest
or rights in the Underlying Stock, such as voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions. In addition,
the issuer of the Underlying Stock will not have any obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the securities in taking any
corporate action that might affect the value of the Underlying Stock and the securities. |
| · | Historical Prices of the Underlying Stock Should Not Be Taken as an Indication of the Future Performance
of the Underlying Stock During the Term of the Securities. |
| · | We
Cannot Control Actions by the Underlying Stock Issuer. |

Examples and Returns |
The payout profile
and return table below illustrate the hypothetical payment upon an automatic call or at stated maturity for a security on a hypothetical
offering of securities based on a range of hypothetical stock returns, with the assumptions set forth in the table below. The examples
below illustrate the hypothetical payment upon an automatic call or at stated maturity for a security on a hypothetical offering of securities
under various scenarios, with the assumptions set forth in the table below. The terms used for purposes of these hypothetical examples
do not represent the actual starting price, call value, or threshold price.
The hypothetical starting price of $100.00 has been chosen
for illustrative purposes only and may not represent a likely actual starting price. The actual starting price will be the stock closing
price of the Underlying Stock on the pricing date and will be specified in the pricing supplement. For historical data regarding the actual
closing prices of the Underlying Stock, please see the historical information set forth under “The Underlying Stock” in this
pricing supplement.
The payout
profile, return table and examples below assume that an investor purchases the securities for $1,000 per security. These examples are
for purposes of illustration only and the values used in the examples may have been rounded for ease of analysis. The payout profile,
return table and examples below do not take into account any tax consequences from investing in the securities. The actual payment upon
an automatic call or the maturity payment amount, as applicable, and resulting pre-tax total rate of return will depend on the actual
terms of the securities.

Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Class A Common Stock of MicroStrategy Incorporated due February 20, 2029
| (1) | The hypothetical pre-tax total rate of return is the number, expressed as a percentage, that results from comparing the payment per
security on a call settlement date or the maturity payment amount per security to the principal amount of $1,000. |
Hypothetical Examples of Payment Upon an Automatic
Call or at Maturity
Example 1. The stock closing price of the Underlying Stock on the
first call date is greater than or equal to the call value and the securities are automatically called on the first call date:
|
Underlying Stock |
Hypothetical starting price: |
$100.00 |
Hypothetical stock closing price on first call date: |
$130.00 |
Hypothetical call value: |
$80.00 |
Because the hypothetical stock closing price of the Underlying Stock on
the first call date is greater than or equal to the hypothetical call value, the securities are automatically called on the first call
date and you will receive on the related call settlement date the principal amount of your securities plus a call premium of 26.75%
of the principal amount. Even though the Underlying Stock on the first call date appreciated by 30.00% from the starting price to the
stock closing price on the first call date in this example, your return is limited to the call premium of 26.75% that is applicable to
that call date.
On the call settlement date, you will receive $1,267.50 per security.
You will not receive any further payments after the call settlement date.
Example 2. The securities are not automatically called prior to the
final call date (the final calculation day). The stock closing price of the Underlying Stock on the final calculation day is greater than
or equal to the call value and the securities are automatically called on the final calculation day:
|
Underlying Stock |
Hypothetical starting price: |
$100.00 |
Hypothetical stock closing price on call dates prior to the final calculation day: |
Various (all below call value) |
Hypothetical stock closing price on final calculation day (i.e., the ending price): |
$90.00 |
Hypothetical call value: |
$80.00 |
|
|
|
Because the hypothetical stock closing price of the Underlying Stock
on each call date prior to the final call date (which is the final calculation day) is less than the hypothetical call value, the securities
are not called prior to the final calculation day. Because the stock closing price of the Underlying Stock on the final calculation day
is greater than or equal to the hypothetical call value for the final calculation day, the securities are automatically called on the
final calculation day and you will receive on the related call settlement date (which is the stated maturity date) the principal amount
of your securities plus a call premium of 107.00% of the principal amount.
On the call settlement date (which is the stated maturity date), you
will receive $2,070.00 per security.
Example 3. The securities are not automatically called. The ending
price is less than the call value but greater than the threshold price, and the maturity payment amount is greater than the principal
amount and reflects the absolute stock return:
|
Underlying Stock |
Hypothetical starting price: |
$100.00 |
Hypothetical stock closing price on each call date: |
Various (all below call value) |
Hypothetical ending price: |
$70.00 |
Hypothetical threshold price: |
$50.00 |
Hypothetical stock return
(ending price – starting price)/starting price: |
-30.00% |
Because the securities are not automatically called and the hypothetical
ending price is less than the hypothetical call value, but is not less than the hypothetical threshold price, the maturity payment amount
per security would be equal to:
$1,000
+ ($1,000 × absolute stock return)
Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Contingent Absolute Return and Contingent Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Class A Common Stock of MicroStrategy Incorporated due February 20, 2029
$1,000 + ($1,000
× 30.00%)
= $1,300.00
On the stated maturity date, you would receive $1,300.00 per security.
Example 4. The securities are not automatically called. The ending price
is less than the threshold price, and the maturity payment amount is less than the principal amount:
|
Underlying Stock |
Hypothetical starting price: |
$100.00 |
Hypothetical stock closing price on each call date: |
Various (all below call value) |
Hypothetical ending price: |
$40.00 |
Hypothetical threshold price: |
$50.00 |
Hypothetical stock return
(ending price – starting price)/starting price: |
-60.00% |
Because the securities are not automatically called and the hypothetical
ending price is less than the hypothetical threshold price, you would lose a portion of the principal amount of your securities and receive
the maturity payment amount equal to:
$1,000 + ($1,000 ×
stock return)
$1,000 + ($1,000 ×
-60.00%)
= $400.00
On the stated maturity date, you will receive $400.00 per security.
If the ending price is less than the threshold price, you will lose more
than 50%, and possibly all, of your principal amount of the securities at maturity.
The hypothetical returns and hypothetical payments on the securities shown
above apply only if you hold the securities 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.

Tax
Considerations
You should review carefully the section entitled “Material
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the accompanying product supplement no. WF-1-I. The following discussion, when read in
combination with that section, constitutes the full opinion of our special tax counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, regarding the material
U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of securities.
Based on current market conditions, in the opinion of our
special tax counsel it is reasonable to treat the securities as “open transactions” that are not debt instruments for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, as more fully described in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Tax Consequences
to U.S. Holders — Notes Treated as Open Transactions That Are Not Debt Instruments” in the accompanying product supplement.
Assuming this treatment is respected, the gain or loss on your securities should be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if you hold
your securities for more than a year, whether or not you are an initial purchaser of securities at the issue price. However, the IRS or
a court may not respect this treatment, in which case the timing and character of any income or loss on the securities could be materially
and adversely affected. In addition, in 2007 Treasury and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income tax
treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments. The notice focuses in particular on whether to require investors
in these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related topics, including
the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments; the relevance of factors such as the nature of the underlying property
to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors
should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership”
regime, which very generally can operate to recharacterize certain long-term capital gain as ordinary income and impose a notional interest
charge. While the notice requests comments on appropriate transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance
promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the securities,
possibly with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment
in the securities, including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by this notice.
Section 871(m) of the Code and Treasury regulations promulgated
thereunder (“Section 871(m)”) generally impose a 30% withholding tax (unless an income tax treaty applies) on dividend equivalents
paid or deemed paid to Non-U.S. Holders with respect to certain financial instruments linked to U.S. equities or indices that include
U.S. equities. Section 871(m) provides certain exceptions to this withholding regime, including for instruments linked to certain broad-based
indices that meet requirements set forth in the applicable Treasury regulations. Additionally, a recent IRS notice excludes from the scope
of Section 871(m) instruments issued prior to January 1, 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 our representation
that the securities do not have a “delta of one” within the meaning of the regulations, our special tax counsel believes that
these regulations should not apply to the securities with regard to non-U.S. Holders, and we have determined to treat the securities as
not being subject to Section 871(m). 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 securities. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application of Section
871(m) to the securities.
