current beliefs and expectations of J.P. Morgan's and Chase's management and are

merger making it more difficult to maintain relationships with clients,
employees or suppliers; increased competition and its effect on pricing,
spending, third-party relationships and revenues; the risk of new and changing
regulation in the U.S. and internationally. Additional factors that could cause
Chase's and J.P. Morgan's results to differ materially from those described in

                      CHASE AND J.P. MORGAN AGREE TO MERGE


         New York, September 13, 2000 - - THE CHASE MANHATTAN CORPORATION (NYSE:
CMB) AND J.P. MORGAN & CO. INCORPORATED (NYSE: JPM) TODAY ANNOUNCED THAT THEY
HAVE AGREED TO MERGE. THE MERGED FIRM WILL BE NAMED J.P. MORGAN CHASE & CO.
LEVERAGING PREMIER BRANDS AND COMPREHENSIVE CAPABILITIES ACROSS AN UNPARALLELED
CLIENT FRANCHISE, J.P. MORGAN CHASE & CO. WILL BE A FORMIDABLE GLOBAL COMPETITOR
IN FINANCIAL SERVICES, POSITIONED FOR SUPERIOR GROWTH AND PROFITABILITY.

The merged company will have assets of approximately $660 billion and
stockholders' equity of more than $36 billion. On a pro-forma basis, J.P. Morgan
Chase & Co. in 1999 would have had net income of approximately $7.5 billion and
revenues of approximately $31 billion.

The merger agreement, which has been approved by the boards of directors of both
companies, provides that 3.7 shares of Chase common stock will be exchanged for
each share of J.P. Morgan common stock. Each series of preferred stock of J.P.
Morgan will be exchanged for a similar series of preferred stock of Chase, the
surviving corporation of the merger. The transaction is expected to be accounted
for as a pooling of interests and to be tax-free to J.P. Morgan and Chase
stockholders. Based upon Chase's closing price yesterday, the transaction would
have a value of approximately $207 for each share of J.P. Morgan common stock.

                                     -more-

The wholesale business will be known globally as J.P. Morgan and will encompass
investment banking (including strategic advisory, equity and debt capital
raising, credit, and global trading and market-making activities), operating
services, wealth management, institutional asset management and private equity.
The retail business will be known as Chase, consisting of credit cards, regional
consumer banking in the New York tri-state area and Texas, mortgage banking,
diversified consumer lending, insurance and middle-market banking.

Douglas A. Warner III, Chairman and CEO of J.P. Morgan, will become Chairman of
J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. and co-Chair of the firm's Executive Committee, its
senior policy making management group, comprised of senior executives from both
Chase and J.P. Morgan. William B. Harrison, Jr., Chairman and CEO of Chase, will
become President and CEO of J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. and co-Chair of the
Executive Committee. In addition to Messrs. Warner and Harrison, the Board of
Directors of J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. will consist of eight members from the
current Chase board and five members from the current J.P. Morgan board.

"This merger is a breakthrough for J.P. Morgan and Chase that will position the
new firm as a global powerhouse," said Mr. Warner. "With a formidable client
franchise and a potent array of capabilities to address the full spectrum of
clients' needs, we see exceptional prospects for sustained growth and
profitability. A diversified revenue stream enhances those prospects. And our
clients will find a common commitment to high standards of integrity, excellence
and service."

Mr. Harrison said, "This transaction combines the most comprehensive group of
clients with extensive financial and intellectual capital. We will have the
capability to meet our clients' needs anywhere in the world with trusted advice
and integrated execution. Our new firm will have leadership positions across a
broad array of businesses in growth markets." (See attached table.)

"Our past mergers have demonstrated that the expansion of product capabilities
applied to a complementary set of clients results in incremental revenue growth.
Expense savings will also result as we combine duplicate functions. As in the
past, we will focus on a smooth integration and make the new organization the
best of both," said Mr. Harrison.

The members of the Executive Committee, reporting to Mr. Harrison, will be:
Geoffrey T. Boisi, David A. Coulter, Ramon de Oliveira, Walter A. Gubert, Thomas
B. Ketchum, Donald H. Layton, James B. Lee, Jr., Marc J. Shapiro and Jeffrey C.
Walker.

Mr. Gubert will be chairman of the J.P. Morgan investment bank. Messrs. Boisi
and Layton will be co-CEOs of the investment bank and coordinate all of the
wholesale banking activities. Mr. Lee will head the investment bank's new
business and commitments committees, working with many of the firm's most
important clients on new business initiatives. Mr. de Oliveira will head the
institutional asset management and wealth management businesses.

Mr. Coulter will continue to head the retail business of the firm and lead its
Internet initiatives. Mr. Walker will continue as head of the new firm's private
equity group. Mr. Shapiro will continue in his present capacity as head of
finance, risk management and administration. Mr. Ketchum will co-chair the
merger transition team with Mr. Shapiro.

In addition, Denis J. O'Leary and Nicolas S. Rohatyn will co-head the
combination of Chase.com and LabMorgan, reporting to Mr. Coulter.

Chase and J.P. Morgan announced the following additional senior management
positions: Dina Dublon, chief financial officer, John J. Farrell, human
resources, Frederick W. Hill, marketing and communications, and William H.
McDavid, general counsel.

Neal Garonzik, vice chairman of Chase, has decided to leave the firm. Mr.
Harrison said, "A little over a year ago, Neal agreed to join Chase for a period
of time to help us with our equity and asset management strategies. While he was
here, we acquired both Hambrecht & Quist and Robert Fleming and saw major
improvements in the quality and profitability of our wealth management
businesses. Neal's experience has been invaluable and we will continue to seek
his advice."

The merger is expected to result in synergies of approximately $1.9 billion
(pre-tax), consisting of estimated cost savings of approximately $1.5 billion
(pre-tax) and estimated incremental net revenues of approximately $400 million
(pre-tax). The synergies are anticipated to be achieved by the end of the second
year following the merger, with one-third estimated to be realized in the first
year. It is anticipated that the merger will result in costs of approximately
$2.8 billion (pre-tax), a portion of which will be taken as a charge upon
closing.

The worldwide headquarters of J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. will be in Manhattan,
although no decision has been made as to the exact location.

                  Chase and J.P. Morgan have granted each other options to
purchase up to 19.9 percent of the outstanding shares of each other's common
stock upon the occurrence of certain events.

The deal is expected to close in the first quarter of 2001 and is subject to
approval by shareholders of both companies, as well as by U.S. Federal and state
and foreign regulatory authorities.

rendered a fairness opinion to its Board of Directors. J.P. Morgan Securities
Inc. served as financial advisor to J.P. Morgan and rendered a fairness opinion

[Message from Bill Harrison]

Dear Colleagues:

We are announcing this morning our decision to merge with J.P. Morgan, creating
a global financial services leader that will rank among the world's most
profitable companies.


                                       8

                                       9

Together, J.P. Morgan and Chase will have exceptional competitive advantages in
the highest growth areas of our industry. The combination will create a greatly
expanded client list, a complete range of product expertise and experience, and
an enlarged global network -- a terrific strategic fit that provides for
significant revenue growth potential.

Our clients will benefit from a company that can meet any of their financial
needs -- anywhere in the world -- from private equity and asset management, to
investment banking and operating services. They will also benefit from a highly
talented team of professionals, a team that shares a mutual dedication to
integrity, excellence and partnership. Add to these advantages the strength of
our U.S. consumer franchise, and we have all the ingredients to power a winning
growth strategy.

Our new company will be called J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., which capitalizes on the
worldwide recognition of both names. We also want to capitalize on the
particular strengths of each name in our two main markets. Therefore our
wholesale businesses will be known globally under the name J.P. Morgan. Our
consumer businesses will be known by the name Chase.

Sandy Warner, J.P. Morgan's chairman and CEO, will become chairman of J.P.
Morgan Chase and co-chairman of the firm's Executive Committee. I will become
president and chief executive officer of the new company, and co-chair of the
Executive Committee. The members of the Executive Committee, reporting to me,
are Geoff Boisi, David Coulter, Ramon de Oliveira, Walter Gubert, Thomas
Ketchum, Don Layton, Jimmy Lee, Marc Shapiro and Jeff Walker.

Our merger is all about growth, but it will also provide opportunities to
increase efficiency and reduce expenses. We expect savings from combining
facilities and systems. Where there are overlapping jobs, some positions may
need to be eliminated. Any decisions will be made fairly and objectively, on a
case-by-case basis.

We anticipate the merger will close during the first quarter of 2001. You will
find details of the transaction in the attached press release, and slides that
we will use later today at a meeting with financial analysts and the news media.
You will also find attached a copy of Sandy's letter to J.P. Morgan's employees.

An e-mail box for your questions and comments will be set up in the near future,
but in the meantime I hope you begin to share them with me so we can address
them in future communications. We intend to keep the information flow strong and
steady.

Many of you have worked on previous mergers, and are well aware of the
challenges and opportunities before us. We have a great track record of

                                       9

integrating companies, and I believe that J.P. Morgan Chase will prove equally
successful. Please join Sandy and me in fulfilling the enormous potential before
us.

13 September 2000

To:      All Morgan Colleagues
From:    Sandy Warner

A few minutes ago we announced that J.P. Morgan and Chase have agreed to merge.
The new J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. will be a formidable global competitor with
extraordinary combined resources and superior growth potential. You'll find the
details in the news release and other materials accessible through MorganToday
and our public website. Here I want to tell you why our Board, our management
team, and I decided to take this step - an historic one by any measure.

>From the experienced pro to the newest analyst, all of us have poured energy,
ideas, and aspirations into J.P. Morgan. We have built superb capabilities in
investment banking, markets, asset management, and e-finance; competed
successfully against the best institutions in the world; and above all won the
confidence of our clients through objective advice, fair dealing, and great
solutions. We transformed this firm. And we have delivered increasingly strong
financial performance.

Now, by joining forces with Chase, we stand to vastly accelerate growth. It's
that simple. This opportunity arises from a powerful combination of clients,
capabilities, and people.

Together, we can leverage our brand, and our combined breadth and depth of
expertise, across a client base of unparalleled scope and diversity. We will
create an institution that works to meet the spectrum of client needs with a
full complement of top-tier capabilities. We will generate more capacity to
invest for the future. And we will create unprecedented opportunities for highly
talented people in a global growth business.

Until now, no business combination has presented a value proposition more
compelling than J.P. Morgan's alone. This transaction in fact would not have
made sense for either firm without the transformation of recent years achieved
by both. Focus on clients, pursuit of excellence, and strong values are integral
to the heritage of both Chase and J.P. Morgan. Chase's drive to win matches our
own. And the mutual respect that our management teams have developed will, I
believe, extend throughout our firms as colleagues come to know one another.
This is the right course, the right partner, and the right time.

Bill Harrison of Chase will become president and chief executive officer of the
new firm, and I will become chairman. We will co-chair an Executive Committee,
whose members are Geoff Boisi, David Coulter, Ramon de Oliveira, Walter Gubert,
Tom Ketchum, Don Layton, Jimmy Lee, Marc Shapiro, and Jeff Walker. In addition,
Clayton Rose will be chief operating officer of the investment bank; Bill
Winters will be co-head of markets; and Nick Rohatyn will co-head the
combination of Chase.com and LabMorgan.

This merger is about growth, but there are also efficiencies that can be
realized as we integrate. There will be savings from combining facilities and
systems, and inevitably some overlapping jobs. Any decisions on positions to be
eliminated will be made fairly and objectively, case by case.

You will have many questions, and we pledge to answer them as directly and
promptly as we can in the coming days and months. As a first step, Bill Harrison
and I will host a "town meeting" for employees Thursday at 9:00 a.m. (New York
time). An audiotape will be available to all. For details on this and other
news, check MorganToday, where we will post ongoing bulletins to keep you
informed. You'll also be able to ask questions through an electronic question
box.

I cannot write, and you cannot read, this message without being conscious of the
great heritage of J.P. Morgan. We are uniting two firms that have helped shape
the world of finance, each in its own way. It's my conviction that the new J.P.
Morgan Chase & Co. will enrich our legacy and carry it stronger into the future.
In closing, I ask you to stay focused on our clients as we embark on the
transition, and engage in this new enterprise with wholehearted optimism. Our
potential for growth and success is tremendous.

This presentation contains statements that are forward-looking within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such
statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of J.P. Morgan's
and Chase's management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties.
Actual results may differ from those set forth in the forward-looking
statements. These uncertainties include: the ability to obtain governmental
approvals of the merger on the proposed terms and schedule; the failure of
Chase and J.P. Morgan stockholders to approve the merger; the risk that the
businesses will not be integrated successfully; the risk that the revenue
synergies and cost savings from the merger may not be fully realized or may
take longer to realize than expected; disruption from the merger making it more
difficult to maintain relationships with clients, employees or suppliers;
increased competition and its effect on pricing, spending, third-party
relationships and revenues; the risk of new and changing regulation in the U.S.
and internationally. Additional factors that could cause Chase's and J.P.
Morgan's results to differ materially from those described in the
forward-looking statements can be found in the 1999 Annual Reports on Form 10-K
of Chase and J.P. Morgan, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
