A Letter from Jamie Dimon, Our Chairman and CEO, and Stephen B. Burke, Our Lead Independent Director

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

In connection with the 2024 Annual Meeting, we want to share with you some of the highlights of the work of the Board. The Board oversaw the Firm's continued strong financial performance in 2023, building upon its momentum from prior years. We experienced growth across all of our market-leading lines of business and maintained a fortress balance sheet. We achieved managed revenue of $162.4 billion, which was a record for the 6th consecutive year, as well as record net income of $49.6 billion and ROTCE of 21%. The Firm increased its quarterly common dividend from $1.00 to $1.05 per share. In addition, we successfully navigated and supported our clients and customers through the regional bank turmoil, and completed our acquisition of the assets of First Republic Bank.

The Board is focused on the many factors that contribute to the Firm's long-term strong performance, including continued investment in products, technology and people. We remain vigilant and prepared to work with our customers, clients and communities around the world across a broad range of economic environments. At all times, we are guided by our fundamental business principles and our commitment to building long-term value for our shareholders. This was especially important to our work in the past year, as geopolitics and conflicts developments around the world produced much uncertainty. The ongoing wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, growing tensions with China and a politically divided America have the potential to lead to a restructuring of the global order, in addition to having profound human consequences.

In this environment, the Board's efforts are focused on making informed decisions and taking appropriate actions to help ensure that our Firm is resilient and we can be there for our clients - in both good times and bad times. Among other matters, in the past year the Board focused on the following:

• Executive succession planning

One of the Board's top priorities is to plan for an orderly CEO transition in the medium term. As discussed in more detail in this proxy statement, the Board is spending significant time on developing Operating Committee members who are well-known to shareholders as strong potential CEO candidates. Earlier this year, the Firm announced leadership and organizational changes to continue to position the Firm for the future. Jennifer Piepszak and Troy Rohrbaugh were named Co-CEOs of the expanded Commercial & Investment Bank, and Marianne Lake became sole CEO of Consumer & Community Banking. Mary Erdoes remains CEO of Asset &

April 8, 2024

Wealth Management, and Daniel Pinto continues as President and Chief Operating Officer. The Board believes that these senior management changes and new alignment will help the Firm better serve its clients as well as further develop the Firm's most senior leaders. Should the need arise in the near-term, we view Mr. Pinto as a key executive who is immediately ready to fulfill the responsibilities of the CEO. We also continue to develop a deep bench of potential leaders who can execute the Firm's strategy and enhance our strong culture.

  • Board refreshment

We are committed to maintaining a vital Board for today and the future. In January of this year, we were fortunate to add Mark Weinberger to our Board and are pleased to nominate him for election by shareholders at the annual meeting. As retired Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Ernst & Young LLP, he brings to the Board an impressive combination of skills, experience and personal qualities that will serve our shareholders, the Firm and the Board well. We would also like to take this opportunity to thank Tim Flynn and Mike Neal, who are retiring from the Board this year. We benefited greatly from their respective insights and contributions as directors and trusted advisors.

  • Oversight of key issues

We are pleased to report that your Board has been diligently focused on overseeing key issues that are critical to the success and sustainability of our institution. One such area is Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is revolutionizing the world around us. While the full impact of AI on our business remains to be seen, we recognize its potential to transform every aspect of our operations. To capitalize on this and other groundbreaking technological advances, we are making strategic investments in resources and expertise, positioning the Firm for success in a rapidly changing competitive landscape. Concurrently, we are taking steps to prevent unintended misuse of AI and to mitigate potential cybersecurity risks.

In addition, the Board is actively overseeing the Firm's efforts in addressing climate change and promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). As a global financial institution, we play a crucial role in supporting our clients' decarbonization strategies and helping to address the broader challenges of transitioning to a low- carbon economy. We are committed to making informed decisions based on the best interests of our Firm and clients, rather than adhering to simplistic statements or arbitrary rules. Furthermore, we firmly believe in the value of DEI, both as a moral imperative and as a

strategic driver of success. By fostering a diverse and inclusive workforce, we enable innovation, smarter decision-making, and better financial results for our business and the economy as a whole. We continue to work closely with management to promote equal treatment, opportunity and access throughout our organization.

Our company's success is built upon the efforts of thousands of employees, our superb senior management team and our outstanding Board members. And it is with a heavy heart that

we remember one such Board member, our colleague and friend, Jim Crown, who served as a member of our Board of Directors from 2004 until his unexpected passing last year. His wisdom and spirit are profoundly missed.

We look forward to continuing to deliver value to our customers, shareholders and stakeholders while remaining firm in our business principles. On behalf of the entire Board, we are grateful for your support of the Board and the Firm.
