●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 structuring and hedging the notes are included in
the
original issue
price of the notes. These costs include 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 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 projected hedging profits, if
any, estimated hedging costs and the levels of the
Indices.
Additionally, independent pricing vendors and/or third party
broker-dealers may publish a price for the notes, which may
also
be
reflected on customer account statements. This price may be
different (higher or lower) than the price of the notes, if any, at
which
JPMS
may be willing to purchase your notes in the secondary market. See
“Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Estimated Value
and
Secondary Market
Prices of the Notes — Secondary market prices of the notes will be
impacted by many economic and market
factors” in the
accompanying product supplement.
