Selected Risk Considerations
An investment in the notes involves significant risks. These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” sections of the
accompanying prospectus supplement and product supplement and in Annex A to the accompanying prospectus addendum.
● 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 level of the Index on that Review Date is greater than or equal to the Interest Barrier. If the closing level of the Index 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 level of the Index 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 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 ANY CONTINGENT INTEREST PAYMENTS
THAT MAY BE 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.
● 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.
● NON-U.S. SECURITIES RISK —
The non-U.S. equity securities included in the Index have been 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 and/or the securities markets in the
home countries of the issuers of those non-U.S. equity securities. Also, with respect to equity securities that are not listed in the
U.S., there is generally less publicly available information about companies in some of these jurisdictions than there is about U.S.
companies that are subject to the reporting requirements of the SEC.
● RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE TECHNOLOGY SECTOR —
All or substantially all of the equity securities included in the Index are issued by companies whose primary line of business is
directly associated with the technology sector. As a result, the value of the notes may be subject to greater volatility and be more
adversely affected by a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence affecting this sector than a different investment linked to
securities of a more broadly diversified group of issuers. The value of stocks of technology companies and companies that rely
heavily on technology is particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence,
government regulation and competition, both domestically and internationally, including competition from foreign competitors with
lower production costs. Stocks of technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology, especially those of
smaller, less-seasoned companies, tend to be more volatile than the overall market. Technology companies are heavily dependent
on patent and intellectual property rights, the loss or impairment of which may adversely affect profitability. Additionally, companies
in the technology sector may face dramatic and often unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of
qualified personnel. These factors could affect the technology sector and could affect the value of the equity securities included in
the Index and the level of the Index during the term of the notes, which may adversely affect the value of your notes.
● 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 Index.
