JPMorgan China Region Fund Inc. Shareholder Update November 215 FOR INSTITUTIONAL/WHOLESALE/PROFESSIONAL CLIENT AND QUALIFIED INVESTOR USE ONLY NOT FOR RETAIL USE OR DISTRIBUTION

Market outlook and investment themes 1 FOR INSTITUTIONAL/WHOLESALE/PROFESSIONAL CLIENT AND QUALIFIED INVESTOR USE ONLY NOT FOR RETAIL USE OR DISTRIBUTION

China Outlook Minimal economic fallout coming from A-share market reversal. Policy direction largely unchanged but execution is key. RMB depreciation should be slow, with credibility at risk and massive reserves to intervene. Near term sentiment may remain volatile as the deleveraging process continue. Despite headwinds, we continue to focus on secular growth opportunities in the new economy sectors: internet, healthcare, consumption and environmental protection. Source: J.P. Morgan Asset Management. As at October 215.

Investment philosophy We are growth-oriented investors from highly diverse backgrounds who primarily invest in higher quality companies We believe Greater China offers attractive growth opportunities comprising both domestic demand and niche exporters We principally formulate and review investment theses through discussions with corporate management teams. These conversations facilitate judgments on quality and sustainability of growth Our solid local knowledge and strong local contacts via our large and well-resourced teams give us an edge We average 5-2 company visits/meetings per fund manager/analyst per year Our Taipei office not only provides research support throughout Greater China, but is also one of the largest domestic investors in Taiwan (managing over USD1.1bn* in domestic equities) Portfolio construction decisions are the responsibility of the primary portfolio manager on each fund, with oversight on strategies, sizing and risk from the team leader Only including pure equity mandates.

International investing involves a greater degree of risk and increased volatility. Changes in currency exchange rates and differences in accounting and taxation policies outside the U.S. can raise or lower returns. Also, some overseas markets may not be as politically and economically stable as the United States and other nations. The risks associated with foreign securities are magnified in countries in "emerging markets." These countries may have relatively unstable governments and less-established market economies than developed countries. Emerging markets may face greater social, economic, regulatory and political uncertainties. These risks make emerging market securities more volatile and less liquid than securities issued in more developed countries J.P.
