Subject: Please Encourage Your Plans to Vote This Proxy

We recently announced a shareholder proxy for three of our funds, JPMorgan Large Cap Growth Fund, JPMorgan Growth Advantage Fund and JPMorgan U.S. GARP Equity Fund (the "Funds"), to vote on a proposal to change each Fund from a "diversified company" to a "non-diversified company" by eliminating the related fundamental investment policy (the "Proposal") (see the supplement to the registration statements filed on July 1, 2024). We are working with our recordkeeping partners to get the proxy materials to the plans holding these Funds, and we wanted to ensure you are aware of this communication to your plan sponsor clients.

We need your help - please encourage your impacted plan sponsors to vote as soon as possible!

•

Plans are eligible to vote if they owned shares of an impacted Fund at the close of business on July 31, 2024. The tickers and CUSIPs for the respective share classes of the Funds are provided below.

•

Each Plan's vote is extremely important, and voting is quick and easy. Plans can vote "For" the Proposal, "Against" the Proposal or "Abstain" from voting. The Funds' Board of Trustees is recommending a vote "FOR" the proposal.

•

There are four convenient methods for plans to cast their vote: by telephone, via the Internet, by returning the proxy card they receive by mail, or by participating in the shareholder meeting. See the proxy statement filed on August 15, 2024 for details.

•

The shareholder meeting is scheduled to be held at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on October 2, 2024, at 277 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10172, 17th Floor. It is possible that the meeting could be postponed to a later date/time to allow additional time for shareholders to vote.

•

Plans may receive multiple proxy cards if they hold Fund shares in multiple accounts or subplans. Plans should be sure to vote all control numbers associated with their plan accounts.

•

If a plan hasn't received its proxy materials, please have them call our proxy coordination partner, EQ, at 1-888-628-1041. They will likely need to provide the recordkeeper name where their shares are held, and, if held through a TPA, they may also need to provide the custodian name (example: holding shares through XYZ TPA, trading through ABC clearing firm).

If you or your plan sponsor clients have any questions after reviewing the proxy materials, please call 1-888-628-1041. We will get you the answers that you need promptly.

Thank you!
