JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC
Structured Investments
Auto Callable Yield Notes Linked to the Common Stock
of Microsoft Corporation due December 31, 2025
Fully
and Unconditionally Guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co.
| ● | The notes are designed for investors who seek a higher interest rate than the yield on a conventional debt security with the same
maturity issued by us. The notes will pay at
least 6.85% per annum interest over the term of the notes, assuming no automatic call, payable at a rate of at least 0.57083% per
month. |
| ● | The notes will be automatically called 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 earliest date on which an automatic call may be initiated is May 27, 2025. |
| ● | Investors should be willing to accept the risk of losing some or all of their principal and be willing to forgo dividend payments,
in exchange for Interest Payments. |
| ● | The notes 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 notes is subject to the
credit risk of JPMorgan Financial, as issuer of the notes, and the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase & Co., as guarantor of the notes. |
| ● | Minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof |
| ● | The notes are expected to price on or about November 26, 2024 and are expected to settle on or about December 2, 2024. |

Total Interest Payments
The table below illustrates the hypothetical total Interest
Payments per $1,000 principal amount note over the term of the notes based on a hypothetical Interest Rate of 6.85% per annum, depending
on how many Interest Payments are made prior to automatic call or maturity. If the notes have not been automatically called, the hypothetical
total Interest Payments per $1,000 principal amount note over the term of the notes will be equal to the maximum amount shown in the table
below. The actual Interest Rate will be provided in the pricing supplement and will be at least 6.85% per annum.

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; |
| ● | a Trigger Value of $70.00 (equal to 70.00% of the hypothetical Initial Value); and |
| ● | an Interest Rate of 6.85% per annum (payable at a rate of 0.57083% per month). |
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.
Date |
Closing Price |
|
First Review Date |
$101.00 |
Notes are automatically called |
|
Total Payment |
$1,034.25 (3.425% 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 $1,005.7083 (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 $1,034.25. No further payments will be made on
the notes.

Total Payment |
$1,074.2083 (7.42083% return) |
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 $1,005.7083 (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 $1,074.2083.

|
Total Payment |
$574.2083 (-42.57917% return) |
Because the notes have not been automatically called,
the Final Value is less than the Trigger Value and the Stock Return is -50.00%, the payment at maturity will be $505.7083 per $1,000 principal
amount note, calculated as follows:
$1,000 + [$1,000 × (-50.00%)] + $5.7083 = $505.7083
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 $574.2083.
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 and product 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
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 30.00% of your principal amount at maturity and could lose all of your
principal amount at maturity. |
| ● | 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. |
PS-4
| Structured Investments
Auto Callable Yield Notes Linked to the Common Stock
of Microsoft Corporation |
|
| ● | 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 Reference Stock, which may be significant. You will not participate in any appreciation of the Reference
Stock. |
| ● | 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 six months 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 REFERENCE STOCK OR HAVE ANY RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO THE REFERENCE STOCK. |
| ● | THE RISK OF THE CLOSING PRICE OF ONE SHARE OF THE REFERENCE STOCK FALLING BELOW THE TRIGGER VALUE IS GREATER IF THE PRICE OF ONE
SHARE 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 J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, which we refer to as 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 Interest
Rate. |
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. |
Risks Relating to the Estimated Value and Secondary
Market Prices of the Notes
| ● | 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. |
PS-5
| Structured Investments
Auto Callable Yield Notes Linked to the Common Stock
of Microsoft Corporation |
|
| ● | 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 price of one share 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. |
Risks Relating 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. |

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
PS-7
| Structured Investments
Auto Callable Yield Notes Linked to the Common Stock
of Microsoft Corporation |
|
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 4.56% 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, 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.
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 will be lower than the
original issue price 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. 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 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 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 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 (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.
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, the accompanying prospectus addendum and the more detailed information contained in the accompanying product supplement.
