PRIME MONEY MARKET FUND

REGISTRANT: J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS
(J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE PRIME MONEY MARKET FUND)

[GRAPHIC]

GOAL
The fund's goal is to maximize current income consistent with the preservation
of capital and same-day liquidity. This goal can be changed only with
shareholder approval.

[GRAPHIC]

INVESTMENT APPROACH
Principal Strategies
The fund looks for investments across a broad spectrum of U.S.
dollar-denominated money market securities, typically emphasizing different
types of securities at different times in order to take advantage of changing
yield differentials. The fund's investments may include obligations issued by
the U.S. Treasury, government agencies, domestic and foreign banks and
corporations, foreign governments, repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase
agreements, as well as asset-backed securities, taxable municipal obligations,
and other money market instruments. Some of these investments may be illiquid or
purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis.

The fund's yield will vary in response to changes in interest rates. How well
the fund's yield compares to the yields of similar money market funds will
depend on the success of the investment process described on page 10.

Principal Risks
As with all money market funds, the fund's investments are subject to various
risks, which, while generally considered to be minimal, could cause its share
price to fall below $1. For example, the issuer or guarantor of a portfolio
security or the counterparty to a contract could default on its obligation. An
unexpected rise in interest rates could also lead to a loss in share price if
the fund is near the maximum allowable dollar weighted average maturity
(currently not to exceed 90 days) at the time. To the extent that the fund
invests in foreign securities, the fund could lose money because of foreign
government actions, political instability, or lack of adequate and accurate
information. Also, the fund may have difficulty valuing its illiquid holdings
and may be unable to sell them at the time or price it desires. While these
possibilities exist, the fund's investment process and management policies are
designed to minimize the likelihood and impact of these risks. To date, through
this process, the fund's share price has never deviated from $1.

An investment in the fund is not a deposit of any bank and is not insured or
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government
agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1
per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
The fund's assets are managed by
J.P. Morgan, which currently manages approximately $326 billion, including more
than $52 billion using similar strategies as the fund.

The advisor uses a team of portfolio managers and traders to manage the fund.
The portfolio management team is led by John Donohue, vice president, who has
been on the team since joining J.P. Morgan in June of 1997 from Goldman Sachs &
Co., where he was an Institutional Money Market Portfolio Manager; and Mark
Settles, vice president, who has been on the team since November 1999 and has
been at J.P. Morgan since 1994. Prior to managing this fund, Mr. Settles was a
fixed income trader on J.P. Morgan's New York and London trading desks. The
traders on the team are Donald Clemmenson, vice president, who has been on the
team since its inception; Gunter Heiland, associate, who has been on the team
since joining J.P. Morgan in June of 1997 from Salomon Brothers, where he was a
sales assistant; and Kimberly Weil, who has been on the team since its
inception.

fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes:
$10,000 initial investment, 5% return each year, net expenses for the period

sold at the end of each time period. The example is for comparison only; the
fund's actual return and your actual costs may be higher or lower.

1 The fund commenced operations on 10/23/97. Returns reflect performance of
the J.P. Morgan Prime Money Market Fund, a separate feeder fund investing
in the same master portfolio, prior to that date.

Returns for periods prior to 7/31/93 reflect performance of The Pierpont
Money Market Fund, the predecessor of the J.P. Morgan Prime Money Market
Fund. These returns reflect lower operating expenses than those of the
fund. Therefore, these returns may be higher than the fund's would have
been had it existed during the same period.
2 The fund's fiscal year end is 11/30.
3 The fund has a master/feeder structure as described on page 13. This table
shows the fund's expenses and its share of master portfolio expenses for
the past fiscal year expressed as a percentage of the fund's average net
assets.
4 Service Organizations (described on page 11) may charge other fees to their
customers who are the beneficial owners of shares in connection with their
customers' accounts. Such fees, if any, may affect the return such
customers realize with respect to their investments.
5 Reflects an agreement dated 6/1/99 by Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New
York ("Morgan Guaranty"), an affiliate of J.P. Morgan, to reimburse the
fund to the extent expenses exceed 0.45% (excluding extraordinary expenses)
of the fund's average daily net assets through 2/28/01.

GOAL
The fund's goal is to provide high current income consistent with the
preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. This goal can be changed without
shareholder approval.

[GRAPHIC]

INVESTMENT APPROACH
Principal Strategies
The fund purchases securities that offer the highest credit quality and provide
regular income. It invests exclusively in U.S. Treasury obligations and
repurchase agreements collateralized by these obligations. Some of these
investments may be purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis.

The portion of the fund's income derived from direct investments in U.S.
Treasury obligations may be exempt from state and local personal income taxes.

Principal Risks
While the fund's U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the full faith and
credit of the federal government, investors should bear in mind that any
repurchase agreements the fund may hold do not have this guarantee (even though
they are fully collateralized by Treasuries), and that in any case, government
guarantees do not extend to shares of the fund itself.

Portfolio Management
The fund's assets are managed by J.P. Morgan, which currently manages
approximately $326 billion, including more than $52 billion using similar
strategies as the fund.

The advisor uses a team of portfolio managers and traders to manage the fund.
The portfolio management team is led by John Donohue, vice president, who has
been on the team since its inception, after joining J.P. Morgan in June of 1997
from Goldman Sachs & Co., where he was an Institutional Money Market Portfolio
Manager; and Mark Settles, vice president, who has been on the team since
November 1999 and has been at J.P. Morgan since 1994. Prior to managing this
fund, Mr. Settles was a fixed income trader on J.P. Morgan's New York and London
trading desks. The traders on the team are Donald Clemmenson, vice president,
Gunter Heiland, associate, and Kimberly Weil, each of whom has been on the team
since its inception. Prior to joining J.P. Morgan, Mr. Heiland was a sales
assistant at Salomon Brothers.

GOAL

preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. This goal can be changed only
with shareholder approval.

[GRAPHIC]

INVESTMENT APPROACH

Principal Strategies
The fund purchases securities that offer very high credit quality and pay
regular income that is generally free from state and local income taxes. It
invests exclusively in U.S. government agency obligations such as the Federal
Farm Credit Bank, the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Federal Home Loan Bank,
the Student Loan Marketing Association, and in obligations of the U.S. Treasury.
Some of these investments may be purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery
basis.

Principal Risks
While the fund's U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the full faith and
credit of the Government, investors should bear in mind that any agency
obligations the fund may hold do not have this guarantee, and that in any case
government guarantees do not extend to shares of the fund itself.

Most of the fund's income is generally exempt from state and local personal
income taxes and from some corporate income taxes (although not federal income
taxes). Because of this beneficial tax status, the fund's yields are generally
lower than those of taxable money market funds when compared on a pre-tax basis.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
The fund's assets are managed by J.P. Morgan, which currently manages
approximately $326 billion, including more than $52 billion using similar
strategies as the fund.

GOAL
The fund's goal is to maximize current income that is exempt from federal income
tax consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. This
goal can be changed only with shareholder approval.

[GRAPHIC]

INVESTMENT APPROACH

Principal Strategies
The fund invests primarily in high quality municipal obligations whose income is
exempt from federal income taxes. The fund's municipal obligations must fall
into the highest short-term rating category (top two highest categories for New
York State obligations) or be of equivalent quality. The fund may also invest in
certain structured municipal obligations, and in certain municipal or other
obligations whose income is subject to tax, including the alternative minimum
tax. Although the fund is permitted to hold these other obligations or cash, it
aims to be fully invested in municipal obligations. In order to maintain
liquidity, the fund may buy securities with puts that allow the fund to
liquidate the securities on short notice. Some of the fund's securities may be
purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis.

The fund's income is generally exempt from federal income taxes. A small portion
may be exempt from state or local income taxes.

Portfolio Management
The fund's assets are managed by
J.P. Morgan, which currently manages approximately $326 billion, including more
than $52 billion using similar strategies as the fund.

The advisor uses a team of portfolio managers and traders to manage the fund.
The portfolio management team is led by John Donohue, vice president, who has
been on the team since joining J.P. Morgan in June of 1997 from Goldman Sachs &
Co., where he was an Institutional Money Market Portfolio Manager; and Richard
Oswald, vice president, who has been on the team since joining J.P. Morgan in
October of 1996. Prior to managing this fund, Mr. Oswald served as Treasurer of
CBS and President of its finance unit. The traders on the team are Donald
Clemmenson, vice president, who has been on the team since its inception; Gunter
Heiland, associate, who has been on the team since joining J.P. Morgan in June
of 1997 from Salomon Brothers, where he was a sales assistant; and Kimberly
Weil, who has been on the team since its inception.

J.P. Morgan Tax Exempt Money Market Fund, a separate feeder fund investing in
the same master portfolio, prior to that date. Returns for periods prior to

MONEY MARKET MANAGEMENT APPROACH
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
J.P. MORGAN
Known for its commitment to proprietary research and its disciplined investment
strategies, J.P. Morgan is the asset management choice for many of the world's
most respected corporations, financial institutions, governments, and
individuals. Today, J.P. Morgan employs over 380 analysts and portfolio managers
around the world and has approximately $326 billion in assets under management,
including assets managed by the funds' advisor, J.P. Morgan Investment
Management Inc.

J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE MONEY MARKET FUNDS
Each of these funds invests in high-quality short-term debt securities by
investing through a master portfolio (another fund with the same goal). Each
fund accrues dividends daily, pays them to shareholders monthly, and seeks to
maintain a stable $1 share price.

WHO MAY WANT TO INVEST

The funds are designed for investors who:

o want an investment that strives to
preserve capital

o want regular income from a high
quality portfolio

o want a highly liquid investment

o are looking for an interim
investment

o are pursuing a short-term goal

o are seeking income that is generally exempt from state and local income taxes
(in the case of Federal Money Market Fund) or exempt from federal income tax
(in the case of Tax Exempt Money Market Fund)

The funds are designed for investors who:

o are investing for long-term growth

o are investing for high income

o require the added security of the
FDIC insurance

o in the case of Tax Exempt Money Market Fund, are investing through an IRA or
other tax- advantaged retirement plan

MONEY MARKET FUNDS
AND STABILITY

Money market funds are subject to a range of federal regulations designed to
promote stability. For example, money market funds must maintain a weighted
average maturity of no more than 90 days, and generally may not invest in any
securities with a remaining maturity of more than 13 months. Keeping the
weighted average maturity this short helps funds in their pursuit of a stable $1
share price.

<PAGE>

THE SPECTRUM OF MONEY MARKET FUNDS
The funds described in this prospectus differ primarily in the types of
securities they hold and in the tax status of the income they offer. The table
below provides an overview of the main types of securities in which each fund
may invest. The distinguishing features of each money market fund are described
in more detail on the preceding pages.

9 MONEY MARKET MANAGEMENT APPROACH

<PAGE>

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Money Market Investment Process
While each fund follows its own strategy, the funds as a group share a single
investment philosophy. This philosophy, developed by the funds' advisor,
emphasizes investment quality through in-depth research of short-term securities
and their issuers. This allows each fund to focus on providing current income
without compromising share price stability.

In researching short-term securities, J.P. Morgan's credit analysts enhance the
data furnished by rating agencies by drawing on the insights of J.P. Morgan's
fixed income trading specialists and equity analysts. Only securities highly
rated by independent rating agencies as well as J.P. Morgan's proprietary
ratings system are considered for investment.

In managing the funds described in this prospectus, J.P. Morgan employs a
three-step process that combines maturity determination, sector allocation and
fundamental research for identifying portfolio securities:

[GRAPHIC]

J.P.Morgan uses a disciplined process
to control each fund's sensitivity
to interest rates

Maturity determination Based on analysis of a range of factors, including
current yields, economic forecasts, and anticipated fiscal and monetary
policies, J.P. Morgan establishes the desired dollar weighted average maturity
for each fund within the permissible 90-day range. Controlling weighted average
maturity allows the funds to manage risk, since securities with shorter
maturities are typically less sensitive to interest rate shifts than those with
longer maturities.

[GRAPHIC]

The funds invest across different
sectors for diversification and to
take advantage of yield spreads

Sector allocation Analysis of the yields available in different sectors of the
short-term debt market allows J.P. Morgan to adjust each fund's sector
allocation, with the goal of enhancing current income while also maintaining
diversification across permissible sectors.

[GRAPHIC]

Security selection Based on the results of the firm's credit research and each
fund's maturity determination and sector allocation, the portfolio managers and
dedicated fixed-income traders make buy and sell decisions according to each
fund's goal and strategy.

YOUR INVESTMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVESTING THROUGH A SERVICE ORGANIZATION
Prospective investors may only purchase shares of each fund with the assistance
of a service organization. Your service organization is paid by the fund to
assist you in establishing your fund account, executing transactions, and
monitoring your investment. The minimum amount for initial investments in a fund
is $10,000,000 and for additional investments $25,000, although these minimums
may be less for some investors. Service organizations may provide the following
services in connection with their customers' investments in the funds:

o Acting, directly or through an agent, as the sole
shareholder of record

o Maintaining account records for customers

o Processing orders to purchase, redeem or exchange
shares for customers

o Responding to inquiries from prospective and existing shareholders

o Assisting customers with investment procedures

ACCOUNT AND TRANSACTION POLICIES
Business days and NAV calculations The funds' regular business days are the same
as those of the New York Stock Exchange. The Service Federal and Service Tax
Exempt Money Market Funds calculate their net asset value per share (NAV) every
business day at 4:00 p.m. eastern time. The Service Treasury Money Market Fund
calculates its NAV every business day at 4:30 p.m. eastern time. The Service
Prime Money Market Fund calculates its NAV every business day at 5:00 p.m.
eastern time.

Timing of orders Orders to buy or sell shares are executed at the next NAV
calculated after the order has been accepted. Purchase and redemption orders for
each fund must be received at the times indicated in the table below:
Fund Cut-off Time
Service Prime Money Market 5:00 p.m.
Service Treasury Money Market 4:30 p.m.
Service Federal Money Market 2:00 p.m.
Service Tax Exempt Money Market 12:00 noon

For the purchase to be effective and dividends to be earned on the same day,
immediately available funds must be received by a fund by its close of business
on that day. Service organizations will be responsible for transmitting accepted
orders and payments to the funds within the time period agreed upon by them. A
fund has the right to suspend redemption of shares as permitted by law and to
postpone payment of proceeds for up to seven days.

Timing of settlements When you buy shares, you will become the owner of record
when a fund receives your payment.

Redemption orders for each fund received by the respective cut-off times will be
paid in immediately available funds, normally on the same day, according to
instructions on file.

When you sell shares that you recently purchased by check, your order will be
executed at the next NAV but the proceeds will not be available until your check
clears. This may take up to 15 days.

Statements and reports The funds send monthly account statements as well as
confirmations after each purchase or sale of shares (except reinvestments).
Every six months, each fund sends out an annual or semi-annual report containing
information on its holdings and a discussion of recent and anticipated market
conditions and fund performance.

Accounts with below-minimum balances If your account balance falls below the
minimum for 30 days as a result of selling shares (and not because of
performance), the fund reserves the right to request that you buy more shares or
close your account. If your account balance is still below the minimum 60 days
after notification, the fund reserves the right to close out your account and
send the proceeds to the address of record.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Substantially all income dividends are declared daily and paid monthly. If all
of an investor's shares are redeemed during the month, accrued but unpaid
dividends are paid with

11 YOUR INVESTMENT

<PAGE>

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the redemption proceeds. Shares of the funds earn dividends on the business day
their purchase is effective, but not on the business day their redemption is
effective.

Dividends and distributions are reinvested in additional fund shares.
Alternatively, you may instruct your financial professional or J.P. Morgan Funds
Services to have them sent to you by check, credited to a separate account, or
invested in another J.P. Morgan Institutional Fund.

TAX CONSIDERATIONS
In general, selling shares, exchanging shares, and receiving distributions
(whether reinvested or taken in cash) are all taxable events. The transactions
below typically create the following tax liabilities:

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transaction Tax status
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Income dividends from Prime Ordinary income
Money Market, Treasury Money
Market and Federal Money
Market Funds
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Income dividends from Tax Exempt from federal
Exempt Money Market Fund income taxes
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Short-term capital gains Ordinary income
distributions

Every January, each fund issues tax information on its distributions for the
previous year.

Any investor for whom a fund does not have a valid taxpayer identification
number will be subject to backup withholding for taxes.

The tax considerations described in this section do not apply to tax-deferred
accounts or other non-taxable entities.

Because each investor's tax circumstances are unique, please consult your tax
professional about your fund investment.

FUND DETAILS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MASTER/FEEDER STRUCTURE
As noted earlier, each fund is a "feeder" fund that invests in a master
portfolio. (Except where indicated, this prospectus uses the term "the fund" to
mean the feeder fund and its master portfolio taken together.)

Each master portfolio accepts investments from other feeder funds, and all the
feeders of a given master portfolio bear the portfolio's expenses in proportion
to their assets. However, each feeder can set its own transaction minimums,
fund-specific expenses, and other conditions. This means that one feeder could
offer access to the same master portfolio on more attractive terms, or could
experience better performance, than another feeder. Information about other
feeders is available by calling 1-800-766-7722. Generally, when a master
portfolio seeks a vote, its feeder fund will hold a shareholder meeting and cast
its vote proportionately, as instructed by its shareholders. Fund shareholders
are entitled to one full or fractional vote for each dollar or fraction of a
dollar invested.

Each feeder fund and its master portfolio expect to maintain consistent goals,
but if they do not, the feeder fund will withdraw from the master portfolio,
receiving its assets either in cash or securities. Each feeder fund's trustees
would then consider whether the feeder fund should hire its own investment
adviser, invest in a different master portfolio, or take other action.

MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION
The feeder funds described in this prospectus and their corresponding master
portfolios are all governed by the same trustees. The trustees are responsible
for overseeing all business activities. The trustees are assisted by Pierpont
Group, Inc., which they own and operate on a cost basis; costs are shared by all
funds governed by these trustees. Funds Distributor Inc., as co-administrator,
along with J.P. Morgan, provides fund officers. J.P. Morgan, as
co-administrator, oversees each fund's other service providers.

J.P. Morgan, subject to the expense reimbursements described earlier in this
prospectus, receives the following fees for investment advisory and other
services:

Advisory services 0.20% of the first $1 billion of
each master portfolio's average
net assets plus 0.10% over
$1 billion
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Administrative services Master portfolio's and fund's pro-
(fee shared with Funds rata portions of 0.09% of the
Distributor, Inc.)first $7 billion
of average net assets in
J.P. Morgan-advised portfolios,
plus 0.04% over $7 billion
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shareholder services 0.05% of each fund's
average net assets

Each fund has a service plan which allows it to pay service organizations up to
0.25% of the average net assets of the shares held in the name of the service
organization.

J.P. Morgan may also pay fees to certain firms and professionals for providing
recordkeeping or other services in connection with investments in a fund.

Year 2000 Fund operations and shareholders could be adversely affected if the
computer systems used by J.P. Morgan, the funds' other service providers and
other entities with computer systems linked to the funds do not properly process
and calculate January 1, 2000 and dates thereafter. J.P. Morgan has been working
to avoid these problems and has obtained assurances from other service providers
that they have taken similar steps. However, it is not certain that these
actions will be sufficient to prevent these date-related problems from adversely
impacting fund operations and shareholders. In addition, to the extent that
operations of issuers of securities held by the funds are impaired by
date-related problems or prices of securities decline as a result of real or
perceived date-related problems of issuers held by the funds or generally, the
net asset value of the fund will decline. While the funds cannot predict at this
time the degree of impact, it is possible that foreign markets will be less
prepared than those in the U.S.

The fund's goal is to maximize current income consistent with the preservation
of capital and same-day liquidity. This goal can be changed without shareholder
approval.

INVESTMENT APPROACH

Principal Strategies

The fund looks for investments across a broad spectrum of U.S.
dollar-denominated money market securities, typically emphasizing different
types of securities at different times in order to take advantage of changing
yield differentials. The fund's investments may include obligations issued by
the U.S. Treasury, government agencies, domestic and foreign banks and
corporations, foreign governments, repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase
agreements, as well as asset-backed securities, taxable municipal obligations,
and other money market instruments. Some of these investments may be illiquid or
purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis.

Principal Risks

As with all money market funds, the fund's investments are subject to various
risks, which, while generally considered to be minimal, could cause its share
price to fall below $1. For example, the issuer or guarantor of a portfolio
security or the counterparty to a contract could default on its obligation. An
unexpected rise in interest rates could also lead to a loss in share price if
the fund is near the maximum allowable dollar weighted average maturity
(currently not to exceed 90 days) at the time. To the extent that the fund
invests in foreign securities, the fund could lose money because of foreign
government actions, political instability, or lack of adequate and accurate
information. Also, the fund may have difficulty valuing its illiquid holdings
and may be unable to sell them at the time or price it desires. While these
possibilities exist, the fund's investment process and management policies are
designed to minimize the likelihood and impact of these risks. To date, through
this process, the fund's share price has never deviated from $1.

An investment in the fund is not a deposit of any bank and is not
insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other
government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your
investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the
fund.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT

The fund's assets are managed by J.P. Morgan, which currently manages
approximately $326 billion, including more than $52 billion using similar
strategies as the fund.

The advisor uses a team of portfolio managers and traders to manage the fund.
The portfolio management team is led by John Donohue, vice president, who has
been on the team since joining J.P. Morgan in June of 1997 from Goldman Sachs &
Co., where he was an Institutional Money Market Portfolio Manager; and Mark
Settles, vice president, who has been on the team since November 1999 and has
been at J.P. Morgan since 1994_. Prior to managing this fund, Mr. Settles was a
fixed income trader on J.P. Morgan's New York and London trading desks. The
traders on the team are Donald Clemmenson, vice president, who has been on the
team since its inception; Gunter Heiland, associate, who has been on the team
since joining J.P. Morgan in June of 1997 from Salomon Brothers, where he was a
sales assistant; and Kimberly Weil, who has been on the team since its
inception.

GOAL

The fund's goal is to provide high current income consistent with the
preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. This goal can be changed only
with shareholder approval.

[graph omitted]

INVESTMENT APPROACH

Principal Strategies

The fund purchases securities that offer the highest credit quality and provide
regular income. It invests exclusively in U.S. Treasury obligations and
repurchase agreements collateralized by these obligations. Some of these
investments may be purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis.

The portion of the fund's income derived from direct investments in U.S.
Treasury obligations may be exempt from state and local personal income taxes.

Principal Risks

While the fund's U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the full faith and
credit of the federal government, investors should bear in mind that any
repurchase agreements the fund may hold do not have this guarantee (even though
they are fully collateralized by Treasuries), and that in any case, government
guarantees do not extend to shares of the fund itself.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT

The fund's assets are managed by J.P. Morgan, which currently manages
approximately $326 billion, including more than $52 billion using similar
strategies as the fund.

The portfolio management team is led by John Donohue, vice president, who has

INVESTMENT APPROACH

Principal Strategies

The fund invests primarily in high quality municipal obligations whose income is
exempt from federal income taxes. The fund's municipal obligations must fall
into the highest short-term rating category (top two highest categories for New
York State obligations) or be of equivalent quality. The fund may also invest in
certain structured municipal obligations, and in certain municipal or other
obligations whose income is subject to tax, including the alternative minimum
tax. Although the fund is permitted to hold these other obligations or cash, it
aims to be fully invested in municipal obligations. In order to maintain
liquidity, the fund may buy securities with puts that allow the fund to
liquidate the securities on short notice. Some of the fund's securities may be
purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis.

The fund's income is generally exempt from federal income taxes. A small portion
may be exempt from state or local income taxes.

MONEY MARKET MANAGEMENT APPROACH
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

J.P. MORGAN
Known for its commitment to proprietary research and its disciplined investment
strategies, J.P. Morgan is the asset management choice for many of the world's
most respected corporations, financial institutions, governments, and
individuals. Today, J.P. Morgan employs over 380 analysts and portfolio managers
around the world and has approximately $326 billion in assets under management,
including assets managed by the funds' advisor, J.P. Morgan Investment
Management Inc.

J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL MONEY MARKET FUNDS
Each of these funds invests in high-quality short-term debt securities by
investing through a master portfolio (another fund with the same goal). Each
fund accrues dividends daily, pays them to shareholders monthly, and seeks to
maintain a stable $1 share price.

WHO MAY WANT TO INVEST

The funds are designed for investors who:

o want an investment that strives to preserve capital

o want regular income from a high quality portfolio

o want a highly liquid investment

o are looking for an interim investment

o are pursuing a short-term goal

o are seeking income that is generally exempt from state and local income
taxes (in the case of Federal Money Market Fund) or exempt from federal
income tax (in the case of Tax Exempt Money Market Fund)

The funds are not designed for investors who:

o are investing for long-term growth

o are investing for high income

o require the added security of the FDIC insurance

o in the case of Tax Exempt Money Market Fund, are investing through an IRA or
other tax-advantaged retirement plan

MONEY MARKET FUNDS
AND STABILITY

Money market funds are subject
to a range of federal regulations designed to promote stability. For example,
money market funds must maintain a weighted average maturity of no more than 90
days, and generally may not invest in any securities with a remaining maturity
of more than 13 months. Keeping the weighted average maturity this short helps
funds in their pursuit of a stable $1 share price.

MONEY MARKET INVESTMENT PROCESS

While each fund follows its own
strategy, the funds as a group share a
single investment philosophy. This
philosophy, developed by the funds'
advisor, emphasizes investment quality
through in-depth research of short-term
securities and their issuers. This
allows each fund to focus on providing
current income without compromising
share price stability.

In researching short-term securities,
J.P. Morgan's credit analysts enhance
the data furnished by rating agencies
by drawing on the insights of J.P.
Morgan's fixed income trading
specialists and equity analysts. Only
securities highly rated by independent
rating agencies as well as J.P.
Morgan's proprietary ratings system are
considered for investment.

In managing the funds described in this
prospectus, J.P. Morgan employs a
three-step process that combines
maturity determination, sector
allocation and fundamental research for
identifying portfolio securities:

[graph omitted]

J.P. Morgan uses a disciplined process Maturity determination Based on
to control each fund's sensitivity analysis of a range of factors,
to interest rates including current yields, economic
forecasts, and anticipated fiscal and
monetary policies, J.P. Morgan
establishes the desired dollar weighted
average maturity for each fund within
the permissible 90-day range.
Controlling weighted average maturity
allows the funds to manage risk, since
securities with shorter maturities are
typically less sensitive to interest
rate shifts than those with longer
maturities.

[graph omitted]

The funds invest across different Sector allocation Analysis of the
sectors for diversification and to yields available in different sectors
take advantage of yield spreads of the short-term debt market allows
J.P. Morgan to adjust each fund's
sector allocation, with the goal of
enhancing current income while also
maintaining diversification across
permissible sectors.

[graph omitted]

YOUR INVESTMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For your convenience, the J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds offer several ways to
start and add to fund investments.

INVESTING THROUGH A FINANCIAL PROFESSIONAL
If you work with a financial professional, either at J.P. Morgan or elsewhere,
he or she is prepared to handle your planning and transaction needs. Your
financial professional will be able to assist you in establishing your fund
account, executing transactions, and monitoring your investment. If your fund
investment is not held in the name of your financial professional and you prefer
to place a transaction order yourself, please use the instructions for investing
directly.

INVESTING THROUGH AN EMPLOYER-SPONSORED
RETIREMENT PLAN
Your fund investments are handled through your plan. Refer to your plan
materials or contact your benefits office for information on buying, selling, or
exchanging fund shares.

INVESTING THROUGH AN IRA OR ROLLOVER IRA
Please contact a J.P. Morgan Retirement Services Specialist at 1-888-576-4472
for information on J.P. Morgan's comprehensive IRA services, including lower
minimum investments.

INVESTING DIRECTLY
Investors may establish accounts without
the help of an intermediary by using the instructions below and at right:

o Determine the amount you are investing. The minimum amount for initial
investments in a fund is $10,000,000 and for additional investments $25,000,
although these minimums may be less for some investors. For more information
on minimum investments, call 1-800-766-7722.

o Complete the application, indicating how much of your investment you want to
allocate to which fund(s). Please apply now for any account privileges you
may want to use in the future, in order to avoid the delays associated with
adding them later on.

o Mail in your application, making your initial investment as shown below.

For answers to any questions, please speak with a J.P. Morgan Funds Services
Representative at 1-800-766-7722.

OPENING YOUR ACCOUNT

By wire

o Mail your completed application to the Shareholder Services Agent.

o Call the Shareholder Services Agent to obtain an account number and to place
a purchase order. Funds that are wired without a purchase order will be
returned uninvested.

o After placing your purchase order, instruct your bank to wire the amount
of your investment to:

Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York - Delaware
Routing number: 031-100-238
Credit: J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds
Account number: 001-57-689
FFC: your account number, name of registered owner(s) and fund name

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SELLING SHARES

By phone -- wire payment
o Call the Shareholder Services Agent to verify that the wire redemption
privilege is in place on your account. If it is not, a representative can
help you add it.

o Place your wire request. If you are transferring money to a non-Morgan
account, you will need to provide the representative with the personal
identification number (PIN) that was provided to you when you opened your
fund account.

By phone -- check payment
o Call the Shareholder Services Agent and place your request. Once your
request has been verified, a check for the net amount, payable to the
registered owner(s), will be mailed to the address of record. For checks
payable to any other party or mailed to any other address, please make your
request in writing (see below).

In writing
o Write a letter of instruction that includes the following information: The
name of the registered owner(s) of the account; the account number; the fund
name; the amount you want to sell; and the recipient's name and address or
wire information, if different from those of the account registration.

o Indicate whether you want the proceeds sent by check or by wire.

o Make sure the letter is signed by an authorized party. The Shareholder
Services Agent may require additional information, such as a signature
guarantee.

o Mail the letter to the Shareholder Services Agent.

By exchange
o Call the Shareholder Services Agent to effect an exchange.

Redemption in kind
o Each fund reserves the right to make redemptions of over $250,000 in
securities rather than in cash.

ACCOUNT AND TRANSACTION POLICIES

Telephone orders The funds accept telephone orders from all shareholders. To
guard against fraud, the funds require shareholders to use a PIN, and may record
telephone orders or take other reasonable precautions. However, if a fund does
take such steps to ensure the authenticity of an order, you may bear any loss if
the order later proves fraudulent.

Exchanges You may exchange shares in these funds for shares in any other J.P.
Morgan Institutional or J.P. Morgan mutual fund at no charge (subject to the
securities laws of your state). When making exchanges, it is important to
observe any applicable minimums. Keep in mind that, for tax purposes, an
exchange is considered a sale.

A fund may alter, limit, or suspend its exchange policy at any time.

Business days and NAV calculations The funds' regular business days are the same
as those of the New York Stock Exchange. The Federal and Tax Exempt Money Market
Funds calculate their net asset value per share (NAV) every business day at 4:00
p.m. eastern time. The Treasury Money Market Fund calculates its NAV every
business day at 4:30 p.m. eastern time. The Prime Money Market Fund calculates
its NAV every business day at 5:00 p.m. eastern time.

Fund Cut-off Time

Prime Money Market 5:00 p.m.

Treasury Money Market 4:30 p.m.

Federal Money Market 2:00 p.m.

Tax Exempt Money Market 12:00 noon

YOUR INVESTMENT | 12
<PAGE>

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the purchase to be effective and dividends to be earned on the same day,
immediately available funds must be received by a fund by its close of business
on that day. A fund has the right to suspend redemption of shares as permitted
by law and to postpone payment of proceeds for up to seven days.

Timing of settlements When you buy shares, you will become the owner
of record when a fund receives your payment.

Redemption orders for each fund
received by the cut-off times will be paid in immediately available funds,
normally on the same day, according to instructions on file. In-kind redemptions
(described on page 12) will be available as promptly as is feasible.

When you sell shares that you recently purchased by check, your order will be
executed at the next NAV but the proceeds will not be available until your check
clears. This may take up to 15 days.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Substantially all income dividends are declared daily and paid monthly. If all
of an investor's shares are redeemed during the month, accrued but unpaid
dividends are paid with the redemption proceeds. Shares of the funds earn
dividends on the business day their purchase is effective, but not on the
business day their redemption is effective.

TAX CONSIDERATIONS

In general, selling shares, exchanging shares, and receiving distributions
(whether reinvested or taken in cash) are all taxable events. The transactions
below typically create the following tax liabilities:
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transaction Tax status

Income dividends from Prime Ordinary income
Money Market, Treasury Money
Market and Federal Money
Market Funds

Income dividends from Tax Exempt from federal
Exempt Money Market Fund income taxes

Short-term capital gains Ordinary income
distributions

Every January, each fund issues tax information on its distributions for the
previous year.

Any investor for whom a fund does not have a valid taxpayer identification
number will be subject to backup withholding for taxes.

The tax considerations described in this section do not apply to tax-deferred
accounts or other non-taxable entities.

Because each investor's tax circumstances are unique, please consult your tax
professional about your fund investment.

FUND DETAILS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MASTER/FEEDER STRUCTURE
As noted earlier, each fund is a series of J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds, a
Massachusetts business trust, and a "feeder" fund that invests in a master
portfolio. (Except where indicated, this prospectus uses the term "the fund" to
mean the feeder fund and its master portfolio taken together.)

Each feeder fund and its master portfolio expect to maintain consistent goals,
but if they do not, the feeder fund will withdraw from the master portfolio,
receiving its assets either in cash or securities.Each feeder fund's trustees
would then consider whether the feeder fund should hire its own investment
adviser, invest in a different master portfolio, or take other action.

J.P. Morgan, subject to the expense reimbursements described earlier in this
prospectus, receives the following fees for investment advisory and other
services:

Advisory services 0.20% of the first $1 billion of
each master portfolio's average
net assets plus 0.10% over
$1 billion

Administrative services Master portfolio's and fund's -
(fee shared with Funds prorata portions of 0.09% of
Distributor, Inc.) the first $7 billion of average
net assets in J.P. Morgan-
advised portfolios, plus 0.04%
over $7 billion

Shareholder services 0.10% of each fund's
average net assets

J.P. Morgan may also pay fees to certain firms and professionals for providing
recordkeeping or other services in connection with investments in a fund.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The financial tables are intended to help you understand each fund's financial
performance for the past one through five fiscal years or periods, as
applicable. Certain information reflects financial results for a single fund
share. The total returns in the tables represent the rate that an investor would
have earned (or lost) on an investment in a fund (assuming reinvestment of all
dividends are distributions). Except where noted, this information has been
audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, whose reports, along with each fund's
financial statements, are included in the respective fund's annual report, which
are available upon request.

GENERAL

This Statement of Additional Information relates only to the J.P.
Morgan Institutional Prime Money Market Fund, the J.P. Morgan Institutional
Treasury Money Market Fund and the J.P. Morgan Institutional Federal Money
Market Fund (each, a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"). Each Fund is a
series of shares of beneficial interest of the J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds,
an open-end management investment company formed as a Massachusetts business
trust (the "Trust"). In addition to the Funds, the Trust consists of other
series representing separate investment funds (each a "J.P. Morgan Institutional
Fund"). The other J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds are covered by separate
Statements of Additional Information.

This Statement of Additional Information describes the financial
history, investment objective and policies, management and operation of each of
the Funds and provides additional information with respect to the Funds and
should be read in conjunction with the relevant Fund's current Prospectus (the
"Prospectus"). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings
accorded to them in the Prospectus. The Funds' executive offices are located at
60 State Street, Suite 1300, Boston, Massachusetts 02109.

Unlike other mutual funds which directly acquire and manage their own
portfolio of securities, each Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by
investing all of its investable assets in a corresponding Master Portfolio (the
"Portfolio"), a corresponding open-end management investment company having the
same investment objective as the Fund. Each Fund invests in a Portfolio through
a two-tier master-feeder investment fund structure. See "Special Information
Concerning Investment Structure."

Each Portfolio is advised by J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc.
("JPMIM" or the "Advisor").

Investments in a Fund are not deposits or obligations of, or guaranteed
or endorsed by, Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York, ("Morgan"), an
affiliate of the Advisor or any other bank. Shares of a Fund are not federally
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board,
or any other governmental agency. An investment in a Fund is subject to risk
that may cause the value of the investment to fluctuate, and when the investment
is redeemed, the value may be higher or lower than the amount originally
invested by the investor.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

The following discussion supplements the information regarding the
investment objective of each Fund and the policies to be employed to achieve the
objective by each Portfolio as set forth herein and in the applicable
Prospectus. The investment objectives of each Fund and the investment objectives
of its corresponding Portfolio are identical. Accordingly, references below to a
Portfolio also include the corresponding Fund; similarly, references to a Fund
also include the corresponding Portfolio unless the context requires otherwise.

J.P. Morgan Institutional Prime Money Market Fund (the "Prime Money
Market Fund") is designed for investors who seek high current income consistent
with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity from a portfolio of high
quality money market instruments. The Prime Money Market Fund's investment
objective is to maximize current income consistent with the preservation of
capital and same day liquidity. The Prime Money Market Fund attempts to achieve
this objective by investing all of its investable assets in The Prime Money
Market Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a diversified open-end management investment
company having the same investment objective as the Prime Money Market Fund.

The Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by maintaining
a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of not more than 90 days and by
investing in U.S. dollar denominated securities described in this Statement of
Additional Information that meet certain rating criteria, present minimal credit
risk and have effective maturities of not more than thirteen months. The
Portfolio's ability to achieve maximum current income is affected by its high
quality standards. See "Quality and Diversification Requirements."

J.P. Morgan Institutional Treasury Money Market Fund (the "Treasury
Money Market Fund") is designed for investors who seek high current income
consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity from a
portfolio of high quality money market instruments. The Treasury Money Market
Fund's investment objective is to provide current income, consistent with the
preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. The Treasury Money Market Fund
attempts to accomplish this objective by investing all of its investable assets
in The Treasury Money Market Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a diversified open-end
management investment company having the same investment objective as the
Treasury Money Market Fund.

The Portfolio attempts to achieve its investment objective by
maintaining a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of not more than 90
days and by investing in U.S. Treasury securities and related repurchase
agreement transactions as described in this Statement of Additional Information
that have effective maturities of not more than thirteen months. See "Quality
and Diversification Requirements."

J.P. Morgan Institutional Federal Money Market Fund (the "Federal Money
Market Fund") is designed for investors who seek high current income consistent
with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity from a portfolio of high
quality money market instruments. The Federal Money Market Fund's investment
objective is to provide current income, consistent with the preservation of
capital and same-day liquidity. The Federal Money Market Fund attempts to
accomplish this objective by investing all of its investable assets in The
Federal Money Market Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a diversified open-end
management investment company having the same investment objective as the
Federal Money Market Fund.

The Portfolio attempts to achieve its investment objective by
maintaining a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of not more than 90
days and by investing in U.S. Treasury securities and in obligations of certain
U.S. Government agencies, as described in this Statement of Additional
Information that have effective maturities of not more than thirteen months. See
"Quality and Diversification Requirements."

Money Market Instruments

A description of the various types of money market instruments that may be
purchased by the Funds appears below. Also see "Quality and Diversification
Requirements."

U.S. Treasury Securities. Each of the Funds may invest in direct
obligations of the U.S. Treasury, including Treasury bills, notes and bonds, all
of which are backed as to principal and interest payments by the full faith and
credit of the United States.

Additional U.S. Government Obligations. Each of the Funds (other than
the Treasury Money Market Fund) may invest in obligations issued or guaranteed
by U.S. Government agencies or instrumentalities. These obligations may or may
not be backed by the "full faith and credit" of the United States. Securities
which are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States include
obligations of the Government National Mortgage Association, the Farmers Home
Administration, and the Export-Import Bank. In the case of securities not backed
by the full faith and credit of the United States, each Fund must look
principally to the federal agency issuing or guaranteeing the obligation for
ultimate repayment and may not be able to assert a claim against the United
States itself in the event the agency or instrumentality does not meet its
commitments. Securities in which each Fund may invest that are not backed by the
full faith and credit of the United States include, but are not limited to: (i)
obligations of the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation, the Federal Home Loan Banks and the U.S. Postal Service, each of
which has the right to borrow from the U.S. Treasury to meet its obligations;
(ii) securities issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association, which are
supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the
agency's obligations; and (iii) obligations of the Federal Farm Credit System
and the Student Loan Marketing Association, each of whose obligations may be
satisfied only by the individual credits of the issuing agency.

Foreign Government Obligations. The Prime Money Market Fund, subject to
its applicable investment policies, may also invest in short-term obligations of
foreign sovereign governments or of their agencies, instrumentalities,
authorities or political subdivisions. See "Foreign Investments." These
securities must be denominated in the U.S. dollar.

Bank Obligations. The Prime Money Market Fund, unless otherwise noted
in the Prospectus or below, may invest in negotiable certificates of deposit,
time deposits and bankers' acceptances of (i) banks, savings and loan
associations and savings banks which have more than $2 billion in total assets
and are organized under the laws of the United States or any state, (ii) foreign
branches of these banks or of foreign banks of equivalent size (Euros) and (iii)
U.S. branches of foreign banks of equivalent size (Yankees). See "Foreign
Investments." The Prime Money Market Fund will not invest in obligations for
which the Advisor, or any of its affiliated persons, is the ultimate obligor or
accepting bank. The Prime Money Market Fund, may also invest in obligations of
international banking institutions designated or supported by national
governments to promote economic reconstruction, development or trade between
nations (e.g., the European Investment Bank, the Inter-American Development
Bank, or the World Bank).

Commercial Paper. The Prime Money Market Fund may invest in commercial
paper, including master demand obligations. Master demand obligations are
obligations that provide for a periodic adjustment in the interest rate paid and
permit daily changes in the amount borrowed. Master demand obligations are
governed by agreements between the issuer and Morgan acting as agent, for no
additional fee. The monies loaned to the borrower come from accounts managed by
Morgan or its affiliates, pursuant to arrangements with such accounts. Interest
and principal payments are credited to such accounts. Morgan, an affiliate of
the Advisor, has the right to increase or decrease the amount provided to the
borrower under an obligation. The borrower has the right to pay without penalty
all or any part of the principal amount then outstanding on an obligation
together with interest to the date of payment. Since these obligations typically
provide that the interest rate is tied to the Federal Reserve commercial paper
composite rate, the rate on master demand obligations is subject to change.
Repayment of a master demand obligation to participating accounts depends on the
ability of the borrower to pay the accrued interest and principal of the
obligation on demand which is continuously monitored by Morgan. Since master
demand obligations typically are not rated by credit rating agencies, the Prime
Money Market Fund may invest in such unrated obligations only if at the time of
an investment the obligation is determined by the Advisor to have a credit
quality which satisfies the Prime Money Market Fund's quality restrictions. See
"Quality and Diversification Requirements." Although there is no secondary
market for master demand obligations, such obligations are considered by the
Prime Money Market Fund to be liquid because they are payable upon demand. The
Prime Money Market Fund does not have any specific percentage limitation on
investments in master demand obligations. It is possible that the issuer of a
master demand obligation could be a client of Morgan to whom Morgan, in its
capacity as a commercial bank, has made a loan.

Asset-backed Securities. The Prime Money Market Fund may also invest in
securities generally referred to as asset-backed securities, which directly or
indirectly represent a participation interest in, or are secured by and payable
from, a stream of payments generated by particular assets, such as motor vehicle
or credit card receivables or other asset-backed securities collateralized by
such assets. Asset-backed securities provide periodic payments that generally
consist of both interest and principal payments. Consequently, the life of an
asset-backed security varies with the prepayment experience of the underlying
obligations. Payments of principal and interest may be guaranteed up to certain
amounts and for a certain time period by a letter of credit issued by a
financial institution unaffiliated with the entities issuing the securities. The
asset-backed securities in which a Fund may invest are subject to the Fund's
overall credit requirements. However, asset-backed securities, in general, are
subject to certain risks. Most of these risks are related to limited interests
in applicable collateral. For example, credit card debt receivables are
generally unsecured and the debtors are entitled to the protection of a number
of state and federal consumer credit laws, many of which give such debtors the
right to set off certain amounts on credit card debt thereby reducing the
balance due. Additionally, if the letter of credit is exhausted, holders of
asset-backed securities may also experience delays in payments or losses if the
full amounts due on underlying sales contracts are not realized. Because
asset-backed securities are relatively new, the market experience in these
securities is limited and the market's ability to sustain liquidity through all
phases of the market cycle has not been tested.

Repurchase Agreements. Each of the Funds may enter into repurchase
agreements with brokers, dealers or banks that meet the credit guidelines
approved by the Funds' Trustees. In a repurchase agreement, a Fund buys a
security from a seller that has agreed to repurchase the same security at a
mutually agreed upon date and price. The resale price normally is in excess of
the purchase price, reflecting an agreed upon interest rate. This interest rate
is effective for the period of time a Fund is invested in the agreement and is
not related to the coupon rate on the underlying security. A repurchase
agreement may also be viewed as a fully collateralized loan of money by a Fund
to the seller. The period of these repurchase agreements will usually be short,
from overnight to one week, and at no time will any Fund invest in repurchase
agreements for more than thirteen months. The securities which are subject to
repurchase agreements, however, may have maturity dates in excess of thirteen
months from the effective date of the repurchase agreement. The Treasury Money
Market Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements involving U.S. Treasury
securities. The Federal Money Market Fund may only enter into repurchase
agreements involving U.S. Treasury securities and Permitted Agency Securities.
The Funds will always receive securities as collateral whose market value is,
and during the entire term of the agreement remains, at least equal to 100% of
the dollar amount invested by the Funds in each agreement plus accrued interest,
and the Funds will make payment for such securities only upon physical delivery
or upon evidence of book entry transfer to the account of the Custodian. Each
Fund will be fully collateralized within the meaning of paragraph (a)(4) of Rule
2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). If
the seller defaults, a Fund might incur a loss if the value of the collateral
securing the repurchase agreement declines and might incur disposition costs in
connection with liquidating the collateral. In addition, if bankruptcy
proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller of the security,
realization upon disposal of the collateral by a Fund may be delayed or limited.

The Prime Money Market Fund may make investments in other debt
securities with remaining effective maturities of not more than thirteen months,
including, without limitation, corporate and foreign bonds, asset-backed
securities and other obligations described in the Prospectus or this Statement
of Additional Information.

Foreign Investments

The Prime Money Market Fund may invest in certain foreign securities.
All investments must be U.S. dollar-denominated. Investment in securities of
foreign issuers and in obligations of foreign branches of domestic banks
involves somewhat different investment risks from those affecting securities of
U.S. domestic issuers. There may be limited publicly available information with
respect to foreign issuers, and foreign issuers are not generally subject to
uniform accounting, auditing and financial standards and requirements comparable
to those applicable to domestic companies. Any foreign commercial paper must not
be subject to foreign withholding tax at the time of purchase.

Investors should realize that the value of the Fund's investments in
foreign securities may be adversely affected by changes in political or social
conditions, diplomatic relations, confiscatory taxation, expropriation,
nationalization, limitation on the removal of funds or assets, or imposition of
(or change in) exchange control or tax regulations in those foreign countries.
In addition, changes in government administrations or economic or monetary
policies in the United States or abroad could result in appreciation or
depreciation of portfolio securities and could favorably or unfavorably affect
the Fund's operations. Furthermore, the economies of individual foreign nations
may differ from the U.S. economy, whether favorably or unfavorably, in areas
such as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital
reinvestment, resource self-sufficiency and balance of payments position; it may
also be more difficult to obtain and enforce a judgment against a foreign
issuer. Any foreign investments made by the Fund must be made in compliance with
U.S. and foreign currency restrictions and tax laws restricting the amounts and
types of foreign investments.

Additional Investments

Municipal Bonds. The Prime Money Market Fund may invest in municipal bonds
issued by or on behalf of states, territories and possessions of the United
States and the District of Columbia and their political subdivisions, agencies,
authorities and instrumentalities. The Prime Money Market Fund may also invest
in municipal notes of various types, including notes issued in anticipation of
receipt of taxes, the proceeds of the sale of bonds, other revenues or grant
proceeds, as well as municipal commercial paper and municipal demand obligations
such as variable rate demand notes and master demand obligations. These
municipal bonds and notes will be taxable securities; income generated from
these investments will be subject to federal, state and local taxes.

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Securities. Each of the Funds may
purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. For example,
delivery of and payment for these securities can take place a month or more
after the date of the purchase commitment. The purchase price and the interest
rate payable, if any, on the securities are fixed on the purchase commitment
date or at the time the settlement date is fixed. The value of such securities
is subject to market fluctuation and for money market instruments and other
fixed income securities, no interest accrues to a Fund until settlement takes
place. At the time a Fund makes the commitment to purchase securities on a
when-issued or delayed delivery basis, it will record the transaction, reflect
the value each day of such securities in determining its net asset value and, if
applicable, calculate the maturity for the purposes of average maturity from
that date. At the time of settlement a when-issued security may be valued at
less than the purchase price. To facilitate such acquisitions, each Fund will
maintain with the Custodian a segregated account with liquid assets, consisting
of cash, U.S. Government securities or other appropriate securities, in an
amount at least equal to such commitments. On delivery dates for such
transactions, each Fund will meet its obligations from maturities or sales of
the securities held in the segregated account and/or from cash flow. If a Fund
chooses to dispose of the right to acquire a when-issued security prior to its
acquisition, it could, as with the disposition of any other portfolio
obligation, incur a gain or loss due to market fluctuation. Also, a Fund may be
disadvantaged if the other party to the transaction defaults.

Investment Company Securities. Securities of other investment companies
may be acquired by each of the Funds and their corresponding Portfolios to the
extent permitted under the 1940 Act or any order pursuant thereto. These limits
currently require that, as determined immediately after a purchase is made, (i)
not more than 5% of the value of a Fund's total assets will be invested in the
securities of any one investment company, (ii) not more than 10% of the value of
its total assets will be invested in the aggregate in securities of investment
companies as a group, and (iii) not more than 3% of the outstanding voting stock
of any one investment company will be owned by a Fund, provided however, that a
Fund may invest all of its investable assets in an open-end investment company
that has the same investment objective as the Fund (its corresponding
Portfolio). As a shareholder of another investment company, a Fund or Portfolio
would bear, along with other shareholders, its pro rata portion of the other
investment company's expenses, including advisory fees. These expenses would be
in addition to the advisory and other expenses that a Fund or Portfolio bears
directly in connection with its own operations.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements. Each of the Funds may enter into reverse
repurchase agreements. In a reverse repurchase agreement, a Fund sells a
security and agrees to repurchase the same security at a mutually agreed upon
date and price reflecting the interest rate effective for the term of the
agreement. For purposes of the 1940 Act a reverse repurchase agreement is also
considered as the borrowing of money by the Fund and, therefore, a form of
leverage. Leverage may cause any gains or losses for a Fund to be magnified. The
Funds will invest the proceeds of borrowings under reverse repurchase
agreements. In addition, except for liquidity purposes, a Fund will enter into a
reverse repurchase agreement only when the expected return from the investment
of the proceeds is greater than the expense of the transaction. A Fund will not
invest the proceeds of a reverse repurchase agreement for a period which exceeds
the duration of the reverse repurchase agreement. Each Fund will establish and
maintain with the custodian a separate account with a segregated portfolio of
securities in an amount at least equal to its purchase obligations under its
reverse repurchase agreements. See "Investment Restrictions" for each Fund's
limitations on reverse repurchase agreements and bank borrowings.

Loans of Portfolio Securities. Subject to applicable investment
restrictions, each Fund is permitted to lend its securities in an amount up to
33 1/3% of the value of the Fund's net assets. Each of the Funds may lend its
securities if such loans are secured continuously by cash or equivalent
collateral or by a letter of credit in favor of the Fund at least equal at all
times to 100% of the market value of the securities loaned, plus accrued
interest. While such securities are on loan, the borrower will pay the Fund any
income accruing thereon. Loans will be subject to termination by the Funds in
the normal settlement time, generally three business days after notice, or by
the borrower on one day's notice. Borrowed securities must be returned when the
loan is terminated. Any gain or loss in the market price of the borrowed
securities which occurs during the term of the loan inures to a Fund and its
respective investors. The Funds may pay reasonable finders' and custodial fees
in connection with a loan. In addition, a Fund will consider all facts and
circumstances including the creditworthiness of the borrowing financial
institution, and no Fund will make any loans in excess of one year. Loans of
portfolio securities may be considered extensions of credit by the Funds. The
risks to each Fund with respect to borrowers of its portfolio securities are
similar to the risks to each Fund with respect to sellers in repurchase
agreement transactions. See "Repurchase Agreements". The Funds will not lend
their securities to any officer, Trustee, Director, employee or other affiliate
of the Funds, the Advisor or the Distributor, unless otherwise permitted by
applicable law.

Illiquid Investments, Privately Placed and Certain Unregistered
Securities. The Prime Money Market Fund may invest in privately placed,
restricted, Rule 144A or other unregistered securities. No Fund may acquire any
illiquid holdings if, as a result thereof, more than 10% of a Fund's net assets
would be in illiquid investments. Subject to this non-fundamental policy
limitation, the Funds may acquire investments that are illiquid or have limited
liquidity, such as the Prime Money Market Fund's investments in private
placements or investments that are not registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") and cannot be offered for public sale in the
United States without first being registered under the 1933 Act. An illiquid
investment is any investment that cannot be disposed of within seven days in the
normal course of business at approximately the amount at which it is valued by
the Funds. The price the Funds pay for illiquid securities or receives upon
resale may be lower than the price paid or received for similar securities with
a more liquid market. Accordingly the valuation of these securities will reflect
any limitations on their liquidity.

The Prime Money Market Fund may also purchase Rule 144A securities sold
to institutional investors without registration under the 1933 Act. These
securities may be determined to be liquid in accordance with guidelines
established by the Advisor and approved by the Trustees. The Trustees will
monitor the Advisor's implementation of these guidelines on a periodic basis.

As to illiquid investments, a Fund is subject to a risk that should the
Fund decide to sell them when a ready buyer is not available at a price the Fund
deems representative of their value, the value of the Fund's net assets could be
adversely affected. Where an illiquid security must be registered under the 1933
Act, before it may be sold, a Fund may be obligated to pay all or part of the
registration expenses, and a considerable period may elapse between the time of
the decision to sell and the time the Fund may be permitted to sell a security
under an effective registration statement. If, during such a period, adverse
market conditions were to develop, a Fund might obtain a less favorable price
than prevailed when it decided to sell.

Synthetic Instruments. The Prime Money Market Fund may invest in
certain synthetic instruments. Such instruments generally involve the deposit of
asset-backed securities in a trust arrangement and the issuance of certificates
evidencing interests in the trust. The certificates are generally sold in
private placements in reliance on Rule 144A. The Advisor will review the
structure of synthetic instruments to identify credit and liquidity risks and
will monitor those risks. See "Illiquid Investments, Privately Placed and
Certain Unregistered Securities".

Quality and Diversification Requirements

Each of the Funds intends to meet the diversification requirements of
the 1940 Act. Current 1940 Act diversification requirements require that with
respect to 75% of the assets of each Fund: (1) the Fund may not invest more than
5% of its total assets in the securities of any one issuer, except obligations
of the U.S. Government, its agencies and instrumentalities, and (2) the Fund may
not own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer. As
for the other 25% of the Fund's assets not subject to the limitation described
above, there is no limitation on investment of these assets under the 1940 Act,
so that all of such assets may be invested in securities of any one issuer.
Investments not subject to the limitations described above could involve an
increased risk to a Fund should an issuer, or a state or its related entities,
be unable to make interest or principal payments or should the market value of
such securities decline.

At the time any of the Funds invests in any taxable commercial paper,
master demand obligation, bank obligation or repurchase agreement, the issuer
must have outstanding debt rated A or higher by Moody's or Standard & Poor's,
the issuer's parent corporation, if any, must have outstanding commercial paper
rated Prime-1 by Moody's or A-1 by Standard & Poor's, or if no such ratings are
available, the investment must be of comparable quality in Morgan's opinion.

Prime Money Market Fund. In order to maintain a stable net asset value,
the Prime Money Market Fund will (i) limit its investment in the securities
(other than U.S. Government securities) of any one issuer to no more than 5% of
its assets, measured at the time of purchase, except for investments held for
not more than three business days and (ii) limit investments to securities that
present minimal credit risks and securities (other than U.S. Government
securities) that are rated within the highest short-term rating category by at
least two nationally recognized statistical rating organizations ("NRSROs") or
by the only NRSRO that has rated the security. Securities which originally had a
maturity of over one year are subject to more complicated, but generally similar
rating requirements. A description of illustrative credit ratings is set forth
in "Appendix A." The Fund may also purchase unrated securities that are of
comparable quality to the rated securities described above. Additionally, if the
issuer of a particular security has issued other securities of comparable
priority and security and which have been rated in accordance with (ii) above,
that security will be deemed to have the same rating as such other rated
securities.

In addition, the Board of Trustees has adopted procedures which (i)
require the Board of Trustees to approve or ratify purchases by the Fund of
securities (other than U.S. Government securities) that are unrated; (ii)
require the Fund to maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of not
more than 90 days and to invest only in securities with a remaining maturity of
not more than 397 days; and (iii) require the Fund, in the event of certain
downgradings of or defaults on portfolio holdings, to dispose of the holding,
subject in certain circumstances to a finding by the Trustees that disposing of
the holding would not be in the Fund's best interest.

Treasury Money Market Fund. In order to maintain a stable net asset
value, the Treasury Money Market Fund will limit its investments to direct
obligations of the U.S. Treasury, including Treasury bills, notes and bonds, and
related repurchase agreement transactions, each having a remaining maturity of
not more than thirteen months at the time of purchase and will maintain a
dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of not more than 90 days.

Federal Money Market Fund. In order to maintain a stable net asset
value, the Federal Money Market Fund will limit its investments to direct
obligations of the U.S. Treasury, including Treasury bills, notes and bonds, and
certain U.S. Government agency securities with remaining maturities of not more
than thirteen months at the time of purchase and will maintain a dollar-weighted
average portfolio maturity of not more than 90 days.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

The investment restrictions of each Fund and its corresponding
Portfolio are identical, unless otherwise specified. Accordingly, references
below to a Fund also include the Fund's corresponding Portfolio unless the
context requires otherwise; similarly, references to a Portfolio also include
its corresponding Fund unless the context requires otherwise.

The investment restrictions below have been adopted by the Trust with
respect to each Fund and by each corresponding Portfolio. Except where otherwise
noted, these investment restrictions are "fundamental" policies which, under the
1940 Act, may not be changed without the vote of a majority of the outstanding
voting securities of the Fund or Portfolio, as the case may be. A "majority of
the outstanding voting securities" is defined in the 1940 Act as the lesser of
(a) 67% or more of the voting securities present at a meeting if the holders of
more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities are present or represented by
proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities. The percentage
limitations contained in the restrictions below apply at the time of the
purchase of securities. Whenever a Fund is requested to vote on a change in the
fundamental investment restrictions of its corresponding Portfolio, the Trust
will hold a meeting of Fund shareholders and will cast its votes as instructed
by the Fund's shareholders.

The Prime Money Market Fund and the Federal Money Market Fund and their
corresponding Portfolios:

1. May not make any investment inconsistent with the Fund's classification as a
diversified investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

2. May not purchase any security which would cause the Fund to concentrate its
investments in the securities of issuers primarily engaged in any particular
industry except as permitted by the SEC. In the case of Prime Money Market Fund,
this restriction does not apply to instruments considered to be domestic bank
money market instruments.

3. May not issue senior securities, except as permitted under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 or any rule, order or interpretation thereunder;

4. May not borrow money, except to the extent permitted by applicable law;

5. May not underwrite securities of other issuers, except to the extent that the
Fund, in disposing of portfolio securities, may be deemed an underwriter within
the meaning of the 1933 Act;

6. May not purchase or sell real estate, except that, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, the Fund may (a) invest in securities or other instruments
directly or indirectly secured by real estate, and (b) invest in securities or
other instruments issued by issuers that invest in real estate;

7. May not purchase or sell commodities or commodity contracts unless acquired
as a result of ownership of securities or other instruments issued by persons
that purchase or sell commodities or commodities contracts; but this shall not
prevent the Fund from purchasing, selling and entering into financial futures
contracts (including futures contracts on indices of securities, interest rates
and currencies), options on financial futures contracts (including futures
contracts on indices of securities, interest rates and currencies), warrants,
swaps, forward contracts, foreign currency spot and forward contracts or other
derivative instruments that are not related to physical commodities; and

8. May make loans to other persons, in accordance with the Fund's investment
objective and policies and to the extent permitted by applicable law.

The Treasury Money Market Fund may not:

1. Enter into reverse repurchase agreements which together with any other
borrowing exceed in the aggregate one-third of the market value of the Fund's or
the Portfolio's total assets, less liabilities other than the obligations
created by reverse repurchase agreements;

2. Borrow money, except in amounts not to exceed one third of the Fund's total
assets (including the amount borrowed) less liabilities (other than borrowings)
(i) from banks for temporary or short-term purposes or for the clearance of
transactions, (ii) in connection with the redemption of Fund shares or to
finance failed settlements of portfolio trades without immediately liquidating
portfolio securities or other assets, (iii) in order to fulfill commitments or
plans to purchase additional securities pending the anticipated sale of other
portfolio securities or assets and (iv) pursuant to reverse repurchase
agreements entered into by the Fund.1

3. Purchase the securities or other obligations of any one issuer if,
immediately after such purchase, more than 5% of the value of the Fund's or the
Portfolio's total assets would be invested in securities or other obligations of
any one such issuer; provided, however, that the Fund may invest all or part of
its investable assets in an open-end management investment company with the same
investment objective and restrictions as the Fund. This limitation also shall
not apply to issues of the U.S. Government and repurchase agreements related
thereto;

4. Purchase the securities or other obligations of issuers conducting their
principal business activity in the same industry if, immediately after such
purchase, the value of its investment in such industry would exceed 25% of the
value of the Fund's or the Portfolio's total assets; provided, however, that the
Fund may invest all or part of its assets in an open-end management investment
company with the same investment objective and restrictions as the Fund. For
purposes of industry concentration, there is no percentage limitation with
respect to investments in U.S. Government securities and repurchase agreements
related thereto;

5. Make loans, except through purchasing or holding debt obligations, repurchase
agreements, or loans of portfolio securities in accordance with the Fund's or
the Portfolio's investment objective and policies (see "Investment Objectives
and Policies");

6. Purchase or sell puts, calls, straddles, spreads, or any combination thereof,
real estate, commodities, or commodity contracts or interests in oil, gas, or
mineral exploration or development programs;

7. Purchase securities on margin, make short sales of securities, or maintain a
short position, provided that this restriction shall not be deemed to be
applicable to the purchase or sale of when-issued securities or of securities
for delivery at a future date;

8. Acquire securities of other investment companies, except as permitted by the
1940 Act or in connection with a merger, consolidation, reorganization,
acquisition of assets or an offer of exchange; provided, however, that nothing
in this investment restriction shall prevent the Trust from investing all or
part of the Fund's assets in an open-end management investment company with the
same investment objective and restrictions as the Fund;

9. Act as an underwriter of securities; or

10. Issue senior securities, except as may otherwise be permitted by the
foregoing investment restrictions or under the 1940 Act or any rule, order or
interpretation thereunder.

The Treasury Money Market Fund's Portfolio has adopted substantially
similar fundamental investment restrictions, except investment restrictions
numbered 7 and 8 above are non-fundamental at the Portfolio level.
Any differences are not expected to materially impact portfolio management.

Non-Fundamental Investment Restrictions - Prime Money Market Fund and
Federal Money Market Fund. The investment restrictions described below are not
fundamental policies of the Funds and their corresponding Portfolios and may be
changed by their Trustees. These non-fundamental investment policies require
that the Funds and their corresponding Portfolios:

(i) May not acquire any illiquid securities, such as repurchase agreements with
more than seven days to maturity or fixed time deposits with a duration of over
seven calendar days, if as a result thereof, more than 10% of the market value
of the Fund's total assets would be in investments which are illiquid;

(ii) May not purchase securities on margin, make short sales of securities, or
maintain a short position, provided that this restriction shall not be deemed to
be applicable to the purchase or sale of when-issued or delayed delivery
securities.

(iii) May not acquire securities of other investment companies, except as
permitted by the 1940 Act or any order pursuant thereto.

(iv) The Prime Money Market Fund may not borrow money, except from banks for
extraordinary or emergency purposes and then only in amounts not to exceed 10%
of the value of the Fund's total assets, taken at cost, at the time of such
borrowing. Mortgage, pledge, or hypothecate any assets except in connection with
any such borrowing and in amounts not to exceed 10% of the value of the Fund's
net assets at the time of such borrowing. The Fund will not purchase securities
while borrowings exceed 5% of the Fund's total assets; provided, however, that
the Fund may increase its interest in an open-end management investment company
with the same investment objective and restrictions as the Fund while such
borrowings are outstanding. This borrowing provision is included to facilitate
the orderly sale of portfolio securities, for example, in the event of
abnormally heavy redemption requests, and is not for investment purposes and
shall not apply to reverse repurchase agreements.

(v) The Federal Money Market Fund may not borrow money (not including reverse
repurchase agreements), except from banks for temporary or extraordinary or
emergency purposes and then only in amounts up to 10% of the value of the Fund's
or the Portfolio's total assets, taken at cost at the time of such borrowing
(and provided that such borrowings and reverse repurchase agreements do not
exceed in the aggregate one-third of the market value of the Fund's and the
Portfolio's total assets less liabilities other than the obligations represented
by the bank borrowings and reverse repurchase agreements). Mortgage, pledge, or
hypothecate any assets except in connection with any such borrowing and in
amounts up to 10% of the value of the Fund's or the Portfolio's net assets at
the time of such borrowing. The Fund or the Portfolio will not purchase
securities while borrowings exceed 5% of the Fund's or the Portfolio's total
assets, respectively; provided, however, that the Fund may increase its interest
in an open-end management investment company with the same investment objective
and restrictions as the Fund while such borrowings are outstanding. This
borrowing provision is included to facilitate the orderly sale of portfolio
securities, for example, in the event of abnormally heavy redemption requests,
and is not for investment purposes.

Non-Fundamental Investment Restrictions - Treasury Money Market Fund.
The investment restriction described below is not a fundamental policy of the
Fund or the Portfolio and may be changed by their respective Trustees. This
non-fundamental investment policy requires that Fund may not:

(i) acquire any illiquid securities, such as repurchase agreements with more
than seven days to maturity or fixed time deposits with a duration of over seven
calendar days, if as a result thereof, more than 10% of the Fund's net assets
would be in investments that are illiquid.

There will be no violation of any investment restriction if that
restriction is complied with at the time the relevant action is taken
notwithstanding a later change in market value of an investment, in net or total
assets, in the securities rating of the investment, or any other later change.

For purposes of fundamental investment restrictions regarding industry
concentration, the Advisor may classify issuers by industry in accordance with
classifications set forth in the Directory of Companies Filing Annual Reports
With The Securities and Exchange Commission or other sources. In the absence of
such classification or if the Advisor determines in good faith based on its own
information that the economic characteristics affecting a particular issuer make
it more appropriately considered to be engaged in a different industry, the
Advisor may classify accordingly. For instance, personal credit finance
companies and business credit finance companies are deemed to be separate
industries and wholly owned finance companies are considered to be in the
industry of their parents if their activities are primarily related to financing
the activities of their parents.

The Trustees of the Trust are the same as the Trustees of each of the

individuals are Trustees of the Trust, each of the Portfolios and the J.P.
Morgan Funds up to and including creating a separate board of trustees.

Each Trustee is currently paid an annual fee of $75,000 (adjusted as of
April 1, 1997) for serving as Trustee of the Trust, each of the Master
Portfolios (as defined below), the J.P. Morgan Funds and J.P. Morgan Series
Trust and is reimbursed for expenses incurred in connection with service as a

$23,610 to a defined contribution plan on his behalf and paid $17,700 in

plan. Currently there are 17 investment companies (14 investment companies
comprising the Master Portfolios, the J.P. Morgan Funds, the Trust and J.P.
Morgan Series Trust) in the fund complex.

The Trustees decide upon general policies and are responsible for
overseeing the Trust's and Portfolio's business affairs. Each of the Portfolios
and the Trust has entered into a Fund Services Agreement with Pierpont Group,
Inc. to assist the Trustees in exercising their overall supervisory
responsibilities over the affairs of the Portfolios and the Trust. Pierpont
Group, Inc. was organized in July 1989 to provide services for The J.P. Morgan
Family of Funds (formerly The Pierpont Family of Funds), and the Trustees are
the equal and sole shareholders of Pierpont Group, Inc. The Trust and the
Portfolios have agreed to pay Pierpont Group, Inc. a fee in an amount
representing its reasonable costs in performing these services to the Trust, the
Portfolios and certain other registered investment companies subject to similar
agreements with Pierpont Group, Inc. These costs are periodically reviewed by
the Trustees. The principal offices of Pierpont Group, Inc. are located at 461
Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10017.

The aggregate fees paid to Pierpont Group, Inc. by each Fund and its
corresponding Portfolio during the indicated fiscal periods are set forth below:

INVESTMENT ADVISOR

The Funds have not retained the services of an investment adviser
because each Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing all of
its investable assets in a corresponding Portfolio. Subject to the supervision
of the Portfolio's Trustees, the Advisor makes each Portfolio's day-to-day
investment decisions, arranges for the execution of Portfolio transactions and
generally manages the Portfolio's investments. Effective October 1, 1998 each
Portfolio's investment advisor is JPMIM. Prior to that date, Morgan was the
investment advisor. JPMIM, a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan & Co.
Incorporated ("J.P. Morgan"), is a registered investment adviser under the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, which manages employee benefit
funds of corporations, labor unions and state and local governments and the
accounts of other institutional investors, including investment companies.
Certain of the assets of employee benefit accounts under its management are
invested in commingled pension trust funds for which Morgan serves as trustee.

J.P. Morgan, through the Advisor and other subsidiaries, acts as
investment advisor to individuals, governments, corporations, employee benefit
plans, mutual funds and other institutional investors with combined assets under
management of approximately $326 billion.

J.P. Morgan has a long history of service as adviser, underwriter and
lender to an extensive roster of major companies and as a financial advisor to
national governments. The firm, through its predecessor firms, has been in
business for over a century and has been managing investments since 1913.

The basis of the Advisor's investment process is fundamental investment
research as the firm believes that fundamentals should determine an asset's
value over the long term. J.P. Morgan currently employs over 120 full time
research analysts, among the largest research staffs in the money management
industry, in its investment management divisions located in New York, London,
Tokyo, Frankfurt, and Singapore to cover companies, industries and countries on
site. In addition, the investment management divisions employ approximately 380
capital market researchers, portfolio managers and traders. The Advisor's fixed
income investment process is based on analysis of real rates, sector
diversification and quantitative and credit analysis.

The investment advisory services the Advisor provides to the Portfolios
are not exclusive under the terms of the Advisory Agreements. The Advisor is
free to and does render similar investment advisory services to others. The
Advisor serves as investment advisor to personal investors and other investment
companies and acts as fiduciary for trusts, estates and employee benefit plans.
Certain of the assets of trusts and estates under management are invested in
common trust funds for which the Advisor serves as trustee. The accounts which
are managed or advised by the Advisor have varying investment objectives and the
Advisor invests assets of such accounts in investments substantially similar to,
or the same as, those which are expected to constitute the principal investments
of the Portfolios. Such accounts are supervised by employees of the Advisor who
may also be acting in similar capacities for the Portfolios. See "Portfolio
Transactions."

Morgan, also a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan, is a bank
holding company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware. Morgan, whose
principal offices are at 60 Wall Street, New York, New York 10260, is a New York
trust company which conducts a general banking and trust business. Morgan is
subject to regulation by the New York State Banking Department and is a member
bank of the Federal Reserve System. Through offices in New York City and abroad,
Morgan offers a wide range of services, primarily to governmental,
institutional, corporate and high net worth individual customers in the United
States and throughout the world.

The Portfolios are managed by employees of the Advisor who, in acting
for their customers, including the Portfolios, do not discuss their investment
decisions with any personnel of J.P. Morgan or any personnel of other divisions
of the Advisor or with any of its affiliated persons, with the exception of
certain other investment management affiliates of J.P. Morgan.

As compensation for the services rendered and related expenses such as
salaries of advisory personnel borne by the Advisor under the Investment
Advisory Agreements, the Portfolio corresponding to each Fund has agreed to pay
the Advisor a fee, which is computed daily and may be paid monthly, equal to the
annual rates of 0.20% of each Portfolio's average daily net assets up to $1
billion and 0.10% of each Portfolio's average daily net assets in excess of $1
billion.

The table below sets forth for each Portfolio listed the advisory fees
paid to Morgan and JPMIM, as applicable, for the fiscal periods indicated. See
the Prospectus and below for applicable expense limitations.

The Prime Money Market Portfolio -- For the fiscal years ended November 30,
1996, 1997 and 1998: $4,503,793, $5,063,662 and $7,199,733, respectively.

The Treasury Money Market Portfolio -- For the period July 7, 1997 (commencement
of operations) through October 31, 1997 and the fiscal year ended October 31,
1998: $49,123 and $1,080,743, respectively.

The Federal Money Market Portfolio -- For the fiscal years ended October 31,
1996, 1997 and 1998: $653,326, $659,707 and $1,736,610 respectively.

The Investment Advisory Agreements provide that they will continue in
effect for a period of two years after execution only if specifically approved
thereafter annually in the same manner as the Distribution Agreement. See
"Distributor" below. Each of the Investment Advisory Agreements will terminate
automatically if assigned and is terminable at any time without penalty by a
vote of a majority of the Portfolio's Trustees, or by a vote of the holders of a
majority of the Portfolio's outstanding voting securities, on 60 days' written
notice to the Advisor and by the Advisor on 90 days' written notice to the
Portfolio. See "Additional Information."

The Glass-Steagall Act and other applicable laws generally prohibit
banks and their subsidiaries, such as the Advisor, from engaging in the business
of underwriting or distributing securities, and the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System has issued an interpretation to the effect that under
these laws a bank holding company registered under the federal Bank Holding
Company Act or subsidiaries thereof may not sponsor, organize, or control a
registered open-end investment company continuously engaged in the issuance of
its shares, such as the Trust. The interpretation does not prohibit a holding
company or a subsidiary thereof from acting as investment advisor and custodian
to such an investment company. The Advisor believes that it may perform the
services for the Portfolio contemplated by the Advisory Agreement without
violation of the Glass-Steagall Act or other applicable banking laws or
regulations. On November 12, 1999, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act was signed into
law, the relevant provisions of which go into effect March 11, 2000. Until March
11, 2000, federal banking law, specifically the Glass-Steagall Act and the Bank
Holding Company Act, generally prohibits banks and bank holding companies and
their subsidiaries, such as the Advisor, from engaging in the business of
underwriting or distributing securities. Pursuant to interpretations issued
under these laws by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, such
entities also may not sponsor, organize or control a registered open-end
investment company continuously engaged in the issuance of its shares (together
with underwriting and distributing securities, the "Prohibited Activities"),
such as the Trust. These laws and interpretations do not prohibit a bank holding
company or a subsidiary thereof from acting as investment advisor and custodian
to such an investment company. The Advisor believes that it may perform the
services for the Portfolio contemplated by the Advisory Agreement without
violation of the laws in effect until March 11, 2000. Effective March 11, 2000,
the sections of the Glass-Steagall Act which prohibited the Prohibited
Activities are repealed, and the Bank Holding Company Act is amended to permit
bank holding companies which satisfy certain capitalization, managerial and
other criteria (the "Criteria") to engage in the Prohibited Activities; bank
holding companies which do not satisfy the Criteria may continue to engage in
any activity that was permissible for a bank holding company under the Bank
Holding Company Act as of November 11, 1999. Because the services to be
performed for the Portfolio under the Advisory Agreement were permissible for a
bank holding company as of November 11, 1999, the Advisor believes that it also
may perform such services after March 11, 2000 whether or not the Advisor's
parent satisfies the Criteria. State laws on this issue may differ from the
interpretation of relevant federal law, and banks and financial institutions may
be required to register as dealers pursuant to state securities laws.

Under separate agreements, Morgan provides certain financial, fund
accounting and administrative services to the Trust and the Portfolios and
shareholder services for the Trust. See "Services Agent" and "Shareholder
Servicing" below.

DISTRIBUTOR

FDI serves as the Trust's exclusive Distributor and holds itself
available to receive purchase orders for each of the Fund's shares. In that
capacity, FDI has been granted the right, as agent of the Trust, to solicit and
accept orders for the purchase of each of the Fund's shares in accordance with
the terms of the Distribution Agreement between the Trust and FDI. Under the
terms of the Distribution Agreement between FDI and the Trust, FDI receives no
compensation in its capacity as the Trust's distributor. FDI is a wholly owned
indirect subsidiary of Boston Institutional Group, Inc. FDI also serves as
exclusive placement agent for the Portfolio. FDI currently provides
administration and distribution services for a number of other investment
companies.

The Distribution Agreement shall continue in effect with respect to
each of the Funds for a period of two years after execution only if it is
approved at least annually thereafter (i) by a vote of the holders of a majority
of the Fund's outstanding shares or by its Trustees and (ii) by a vote of a
majority of the Trustees of the Trust who are not "interested persons" (as
defined by the 1940 Act) of the parties to the Distribution Agreement, cast in
person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval (see
"Trustees and Officers"). The Distribution Agreement will terminate
automatically if assigned by either party thereto and is terminable at any time
without penalty by a vote of a majority of the Trustees of the Trust, a vote of
a majority of the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust, or by
a vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares as defined
under "Additional Information," in any case without payment of any penalty on 60
days' written notice to the other party. The principal offices of FDI are
located at 60 State Street, Suite 1300, Boston, Massachusetts 02109.

CO-ADMINISTRATOR

Under Co-Administration Agreements with the Trust and the Portfolios
dated August 1, 1996, FDI also serves as the Trust's and the Portfolios'
Co-Administrator. The Co-Administration Agreements may be renewed or amended by
the respective Trustees without a shareholder vote. The Co-Administration
Agreements are terminable at any time without penalty by a vote of a majority of
the Trustees of the Trust or the Portfolios, as applicable, on not more than 60
days' written notice nor less than 30 days' written notice to the other party.
The Co-Administrator may subcontract for the performance of its obligations,
provided, however, that unless the Trust or the Portfolios, as applicable,
expressly agrees in writing, the Co-Administrator shall be fully responsible for
the acts and omissions of any subcontractor as it would for its own acts or
omissions. See "Services Agent" below.

FDI (i) provides office space, equipment and clerical personnel for
maintaining the organization and books and records of the Trust and the
Portfolio; (ii) provides officers for the Trust and the Portfolio; (iii)
prepares and files documents required for notification of state securities
administrators; (iv) reviews and files marketing and sales literature; (v) files
Portfolio regulatory documents and mails Portfolio communications to Trustees
and investors; and (vi) maintains related books and records.

For its services under the Co-Administration Agreements, each Fund and
Portfolio has agreed to pay FDI fees equal to its allocable share of an annual
complex-wide charge of $425,000 plus FDI's out-of-pocket expenses. The amount
allocable to each Fund or Portfolio is based on the ratio of its net assets to
the aggregate net assets of the Trust, the Master Portfolios and certain other
investment companies subject to similar agreements with FDI.

The table below sets forth for each Fund listed and its corresponding
Portfolio the administrative fees paid to FDI for the fiscal periods indicated.

SERVICES AGENT

The Trust, on behalf of each Fund, and the Portfolios have entered
into Administrative Services Agreements (the "Services Agreements") with Morgan
pursuant to which Morgan is responsible for certain administrative and related
services provided to each Fund and its corresponding Portfolio. The Services
Agreements may be terminated at any time, without penalty, by the Trustees or
Morgan, in each case on not more than 60 days' nor less than 30 days' written
notice to the other party.

Under the Services Agreements, each of the Funds and the Portfolios
has agreed to pay Morgan fees equal to its allocable share of an annual
complex-wide charge. This charge is calculated daily based on the aggregate net
assets of the Master Portfolios and J.P. Morgan Series Trust in accordance with
the following annual schedule: 0.09% of the first $7 billion of their aggregate
average daily net assets and 0.04% of their aggregate average daily net assets
in excess of $7 billion, less the complex-wide fees payable to FDI. The portion
of this charge payable by each Fund and Portfolio is determined by the
proportionate share that its net assets bear to the total net assets of the
Trust, the Master Portfolios, the other investors in the Master Portfolios for
which Morgan provides similar services and J.P. Morgan Series Trust.

Under prior administrative services agreements in effect from December
29, 1995 through July 31, 1996, with Morgan, each Fund's corresponding Portfolio
(except the Treasury Money Market Portfolio) paid Morgan a fee equal to its
proportionate share of an annual complex-wide charge. This charge was calculated
daily based on the aggregate net assets of the Master Portfolios in accordance
with the following schedule: 0.06% of the first $7 billion of the Master
Portfolios' aggregate average daily net assets, and 0.03% of the Master
Portfolios' aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $7 billion.

The table below sets forth for each Fund listed and its corresponding
Portfolio the fees paid to Morgan as Services Agent. See the Prospectus and
below for applicable expense limitations.

CUSTODIAN AND TRANSFER AGENT

State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street"), 225 Franklin
Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, serves as the Trust's and each Portfolio's
custodian and fund accounting agent and each Fund's transfer and dividend
disbursing agent. Pursuant to the Custodian Contracts, State Street is
responsible for maintaining the books of account and records of portfolio
transactions and holding portfolio securities and cash. The custodian maintains
portfolio transaction records. As transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent,
State Street is responsible for maintaining account records detailing the
ownership of Fund shares and for crediting income, capital gains and other
changes in share ownership to shareholder accounts.

SHAREHOLDER SERVICING

The Trust on behalf of each of the Funds has entered into a Shareholder
Servicing Agreement with Morgan pursuant to which Morgan acts as shareholder
servicing agent for its customers and for other Fund investors who are customers
of a Financial Professional. Under this agreement, Morgan is responsible for
performing shareholder account, administrative and servicing functions, which
include but are not limited to, answering inquiries regarding account status and
history, the manner in which purchases and redemptions of Fund shares may be
effected, and certain other matters pertaining to a Fund; assisting customers in
designating and changing dividend options, account designations and addresses;
providing necessary personnel and facilities to coordinate the establishment and
maintenance of shareholder accounts and records with the Funds' transfer agent;
transmitting purchase and redemption orders to the Funds' transfer agent and
arranging for the wiring or other transfer of funds to and from customer
accounts in connection with orders to purchase or redeem Fund shares; verifying
purchase and redemption orders, transfers among and changes in accounts;
informing the Distributor of the gross amount of purchase orders for Fund
shares; monitoring the activities of the Funds' transfer agent; and providing
other related services.

Effective August 1, 1998, under the Shareholder Servicing Agreement,
each Fund has agreed to pay Morgan for these services a fee at the annual rate
of 0.10% (expressed as a percentage of the average daily net asset values of
Fund shares owned by or for shareholders for whom Morgan is acting as
shareholder servicing agent).
Morgan acts as shareholder servicing agent for all shareholders.

The table below sets forth for each Fund listed the shareholder
servicing fees paid by each Fund to Morgan for the fiscal periods indicated. See
the Prospectus and below for applicable expense limitations.

Prime Money Market Fund -- For the fiscal years ended November 30, 1996, 1997
and 1998: $600,276, $625,222 and $1,682,644, respectively.

Treasury Money Market Fund -- For the period July 8, 1997 (commencement of
operations) through October 31, 1997 and for the fiscal year ended October 31,
1998: $8,000 and $116,683, respectively.

Federal Money Market Fund -- For the fiscal years ended October 31, 1996, 1997
and 1998: $75,343, $54,403 and $370,516, respectively.

As discussed under "Investment Advisor," the Glass-Steagall Act and
other applicable laws and regulations limit the activities of bank holding
companies and certain of their subsidiaries in connection with registered
open-end investment companies. The activities of Morgan in acting as shareholder
servicing agent for Fund shareholders under the Shareholder Servicing Agreement
and providing administrative services to the Funds and the Portfolios under the
Services Agreements, and the activities of JPMIM in acting as Advisor to the
Portfolios under the Investment Advisory Agreements, may raise issues under
these laws. However, Morgan and JPMIM believe that they may properly perform
these services and the other activities described in the Prospectus without
violation of the Glass-Steagall Act or other applicable banking laws or
regulations.

If Morgan were prohibited from providing any of the services under the
Shareholder Servicing Agreement and the Services Agreements, the Trustees would
seek an alternative provider of such services. In such event, changes in the
operation of the Funds or the Portfolios might occur and a shareholder might no
longer be able to avail himself or herself of any services then being provided
to shareholders by Morgan.

The Funds may be sold to or through financial intermediaries who are
customers of J.P. Morgan ("financial professionals"), including financial
institutions and broker-dealers, that may be paid fees by J.P. Morgan or its
affiliates for services provided to their clients that invest in the Funds. See
"Financial Professionals" below. Organizations that provide recordkeeping or
other services to certain employee benefit or retirement plans that include the
Funds as an investment alternative may also be paid a fee.

FINANCIAL PROFESSIONALS

The services provided by financial professionals may include
establishing and maintaining shareholder accounts, processing purchase and
redemption transactions, arranging for bank wires, performing shareholder
subaccounting, answering client inquiries regarding the Trust, assisting clients
in changing dividend options, account designations and addresses, providing
periodic statements showing the client's account balance and integrating these
statements with those of other transactions and balances in the client's other
accounts serviced by the financial professional, transmitting proxy statements,
periodic reports, updated prospectuses and other communications to shareholders
and, with respect to meetings of shareholders, collecting, tabulating and
forwarding executed proxies and obtaining such other information and performing
such other services as Morgan or the financial professional's clients may
reasonably request and agree upon with the financial professional.

Although there is no sales charge levied directly by the Fund,
financial professionals may establish their own terms and conditions for
providing their services and may charge investors a transaction-based or other
fee for their services. Such charges may vary among financial professionals but
in all cases will be retained by the financial professional and not be remitted
to the Fund or J.P. Morgan.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

The independent accountants of the Trust and the Portfolios are
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, 1177 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York
10036. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP conducts an annual audit of the financial
statements of each of the Funds and the Portfolios, assists in the preparation
and/or review of each of the Fund's and the Portfolio's federal and state income
tax returns and consults with the Funds and the Portfolios as to matters of
accounting and federal and state income taxation.

EXPENSES

In addition to the fees payable to Pierpont Group, Inc., JPMIM, Morgan
and FDI under various agreements discussed under "Trustees and Officers,"
"Investment Advisor," "Co-Administrator, "Distributor," "Services Agent" and
"Shareholder Servicing" above, the Funds and the Portfolios are responsible for
usual and customary expenses associated with their respective operations. Such
expenses include organization expenses, legal fees, accounting and audit
expenses, insurance costs, the compensation and expenses of the Trustees, costs
associated with their registration fees under federal securities laws, and
extraordinary expenses applicable to the Funds or the Portfolios. For the Funds,
such expenses also include transfer, registrar and dividend disbursing costs,
the expenses of printing and mailing reports, notices and proxy statements to
Fund shareholders, and filing fees under state securities laws. For the
Portfolios, such expenses also include custodian fees. For additional
information regarding waivers or expense subsidies, see the Prospectus.

J.P. Morgan has agreed that it will reimburse the Funds noted below
until February 28, 2001 to the extent necessary to maintain the Fund's total
operating expenses (which include expenses of the Fund and the Portfolio) at the
following annual rates of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Prime Money Market Fund: 0.20%
Treasury Money Market Fund: 0.20%
Federal Money Market Fund: 0.20%

These limits do not cover extraordinary expenses. These
reimbursement/waiver arrangements will continue through at least February 28,
2001.

The table below sets forth for each Fund listed the fees and other
expenses J.P. Morgan reimbursed under the expense reimbursement arrangements
described above or pursuant to prior expense reimbursement arrangements for the
fiscal periods indicated.

Prime Money Market Fund --For the fiscal years ended November 30, 1996, 1997 and
1998: $1,231,624, $1,069,381 and $2,571,638, respectively.

1996, 1997 and 1998: $238,343, $250,377 and $415,825.

PURCHASE OF SHARES

Additional Minimum Balance Information. If your account balance falls
below the minimum for 30 days as a result of selling shares (and not because of
performance), each Fund reserves the right to request that you buy more shares
or close your account. If your account balance is still below the minimum 60
days after notification, the Fund reserves the right to close out your account
and send the proceeds to the address of record.

Method of Purchase. Investors may open accounts with the Fund only
through the Distributor. All purchase transactions in Fund accounts are
processed by Morgan as shareholder servicing agent and the Fund is authorized to
accept any instructions relating to a Fund account from Morgan as shareholder
servicing agent for the customer. All purchase orders must be accepted by the
Distributor. Prospective investors who are not already customers of Morgan may
apply to become customers of Morgan for the sole purpose of Fund transactions.
There are no charges associated with becoming a Morgan customer for this
purpose. Morgan reserves the right to determine the customers that it will
accept, and the Trust reserves the right to determine the purchase orders that
it will accept.

References in the Prospectus and this Statement of Additional
Information to customers of Morgan or a financial professional include customers
of their affiliates and references to transactions by customers with Morgan or a
financial professional include transactions with their affiliates. Only Fund
investors who are using the services of a financial institution acting as
shareholder servicing agent pursuant to an agreement with the Trust on behalf of
a Fund may make transactions in shares of a Fund.

Each Fund may, at its own option, accept securities in payment for
shares. The securities delivered in such a transaction are valued by the method
described in "Net Asset Value" as of the day the Fund receives the securities.
This is a taxable transaction to the shareholder. Securities may be accepted in
payment for shares only if they are, in the judgment of the Advisor, appropriate
investments for the Fund's corresponding Portfolio. In addition, securities
accepted in payment for shares must: (i) meet the investment objective and
policies of the acquiring Fund's corresponding Portfolio; (ii) be acquired by
the applicable Fund for investment and not for resale (other than for resale to
the Fund's corresponding Portfolio); and (iii) be liquid securities which are
not restricted as to transfer either by law or liquidity of market. Each Fund
reserves the right to accept or reject at its own option any and all securities
offered in payment for its shares.

Prospective investors may purchase shares with the assistance of a
Financial Professional, and the Financial Professional may charge the investor a
fee for this service and other services it provides to its customers.

REDEMPTION OF SHARES

Investors may redeem shares as described in the Prospectus.
Shareholders redeeming shares of the Funds should be aware that the Funds
attempt to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share; however, there
can be no assurance that they will be able to continue to do so, and in that
case the net asset value of the Fund's shares might deviate from $1.00 per
share. Accordingly, a redemption request might result in payment of a dollar
amount which differs from the number of shares redeemed. See "Net Asset Value"
below.

If the Trust on behalf of a Fund and its corresponding Portfolio
determine that it would be detrimental to the best interest of the remaining
shareholders of a Fund to make payment wholly or partly in cash, payment of the
redemption price may be made in whole or in part by a distribution in kind of
securities from the Portfolio, in lieu of cash, in conformity with the
applicable rule of the SEC. If shares are redeemed in kind, the redeeming
shareholder might incur transaction costs in converting the assets into cash.
The method of valuing portfolio securities is described under "Net Asset Value,"
and such valuation will be made as of the same time the redemption price is
determined. The Trust on behalf of the Treasury Money Market and Federal Money
Market Funds and their corresponding Portfolios have elected to be governed by
Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act pursuant to which such Funds and their
corresponding Portfolios are obligated to redeem shares solely in cash up to the
lesser of $250,000 or one percent of the net asset value of such Fund during any
90-day period for any one shareholder. The Trust will redeem Fund shares in kind
only if it has received a redemption in kind from the corresponding Portfolio
and therefore shareholders of the Fund that receive redemptions in kind will
receive securities of the Portfolio. The Portfolios have advised the Trust that
the Portfolios will not redeem in kind except in circumstances in which a Fund
is permitted to redeem in kind.

Further Redemption Information. Investors should be aware that
redemptions from a Fund may not be processed if a redemption request is not
submitted in proper form. To be in proper form, the Fund must have received the
shareholder's taxpayer identification number and address. In addition, if a
shareholder sends a check for the purchase of fund shares and shares are
purchased before the check has cleared, the transmittal of redemption proceeds
from the shares will occur upon clearance of the check which may take up to 15
days. The Trust, on behalf of a Fund, and the Portfolios reserve the right to
suspend the right of redemption and to postpone the date of payment upon
redemption as follows: (i) for up to seven days, (ii) during periods when the
New York Stock Exchange is closed for other than weekends and holidays or when
trading on such Exchange is restricted as determined by the SEC by rule or
regulation, (iii) during periods in which an emergency, as determined by the
SEC, exists that causes disposal by the Portfolio of, or evaluation of the net
asset value of, its portfolio securities to be unreasonable or impracticable, or
(iv) for such other periods as the SEC may permit.

EXCHANGE OF SHARES

An investor may exchange shares from any Fund into shares of any other
J.P. Morgan Institutional Fund or J.P. Morgan mutual fund, without charge. An
exchange may be made so long as after the exchange the investor has shares, in
each fund in which he or she remains an investor, with a value of at least that
fund's minimum investment amount. Shareholders should read the prospectus of the
fund into which they are exchanging and may only exchange between fund accounts
that are registered in the same name, address and taxpayer identification
number. Shares are exchanged on the basis of relative net asset value per share.
Exchanges are in effect redemptions from one fund and purchases of another fund
and the usual purchase and redemption procedures and requirements are applicable
to exchanges. Each Fund generally intends to pay redemption proceeds in cash,
however, since it reserves the right at its sole discretion to pay redemptions
over $250,000 in-kind as a portfolio of representative securities rather than in
cash, the Fund reserves the right to deny an exchange request in excess of that
amount. See "Redemption of Shares". Shareholders subject to federal income tax
who exchange shares in one fund for shares in another fund may recognize capital
gain or loss for federal income tax purposes. Shares of the Fund to be acquired
are purchased for settlement when the proceeds from redemption become available.
The Trust reserves the right to discontinue, alter or limit the exchange
privilege at any time.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Each Fund declares and pays dividends and distributions as described in
the Prospectus.

If a shareholder has elected to receive dividends and/or capital gain
distributions in cash and the postal or other delivery service is unable to
deliver checks to the shareholder's address of record, such shareholder's
distribution option will automatically be converted to having all dividend and
other distributions reinvested in additional shares. No interest will accrue on
amounts represented by uncashed distribution or redemption checks.

NET ASSET VALUE

Each of the Funds computes its net asset value once daily on Monday
through Friday as described in the Prospectus. The net asset value will not be
computed on the day the following legal holidays are observed: New Year's Day,
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day,
Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veteran's Day, Thanksgiving Day, and
Christmas Day. In the event that trading in the money markets is scheduled to
end earlier than the close of the New York Stock Exchange in observance of these
holidays, the Funds and their corresponding Portfolios would expect to close for
purchases and redemptions an hour in advance of the end of trading in the money
markets. The Funds and the Portfolios may also close for purchases and
redemptions at such other times as may be determined by the Board of Trustees to
the extent permitted by applicable law. On any business day when the Bond Market
Association ("BMA") recommends that the securities market close early, the Funds
reserve the right to cease accepting purchase and redemption orders for same
business day credit at the time BMA recommends that the securities market close.
On days the Funds close early, purchase and redemption orders received after the
Funds close will be credited the next business day. The days on which net asset
value is determined are the Funds' business days.

The net asset value of each Fund is equal to the value of the Fund's
investment in its corresponding Portfolio (which is equal to the Fund's pro rata
share of the total investment of the Fund and of any other investors in the
Portfolio less the Fund's pro rata share of the Portfolio's liabilities) less
the Fund's liabilities. The following is a discussion of the procedures used by
the Portfolios corresponding to each Fund in valuing their assets.

The Portfolios' portfolio securities are valued by the amortized cost
method. The purpose of this method of calculation is to attempt to maintain a
constant net asset value per share of the Fund of $1.00. No assurances can be
given that this goal can be attained. The amortized cost method of valuation
values a security at its cost at the time of purchase and thereafter assumes a
constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, regardless of the
impact of fluctuating interest rates on the market value of the instrument. If a
difference of more than 1/2 of 1% occurs between valuation based on the
amortized cost method and valuation based on market value, the Trustees will
take steps necessary to reduce such deviation, such as changing a Fund's
dividend policy, shortening the average portfolio maturity, realizing gains or
losses, or reducing the number of outstanding Fund shares. Any reduction of
outstanding shares will be effected by having each shareholder contribute to a
Fund's capital the necessary shares on a pro rata basis. Each shareholder will
be deemed to have agreed to such contribution in these circumstances by his
investment in the Funds. See "Taxes."

PERFORMANCE DATA

From time to time, the Funds may quote performance in terms of yield,
actual distributions, total return or capital appreciation in reports, sales
literature and advertisements published by the Trust. Current performance
information for the Funds may be obtained by calling the number provided on the
cover page of this Statement of Additional Information. See the Prospectus.

Yield Quotations. As required by regulations of the SEC, current yield
for the Funds is computed by determining the net change exclusive of capital
changes in the value of a hypothetical pre-existing account having a balance of
one share at the beginning of a seven-day calendar period, dividing the net
change in account value of the account at the beginning of the period, and
multiplying the return over the seven-day period by 365/7. For purposes of the
calculation, net change in account value reflects the value of additional shares
purchased with dividends from the original share and dividends declared on both
the original share and any such additional shares, but does not reflect realized
gains or losses or unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Effective yield for
each Fund is computed by annualizing the seven-day return with all dividends
reinvested in additional Fund shares.

Below is set forth historical yield information for the periods indicated:

Prime Money Market Fund (5/31/99 unaudited): 7-day current yield: 4.81%; 7-day
effective yield: 4.93%.

Treasury Money Market Fund (4/30/99 unaudited): 7-day current yield: 4.65%;
7-day effective yield: 4.75%.

Federal Money Market Fund (4/30/99 unaudited): 7-day current yield: 4.68%; 7-day
effective yield: 4.79%.

Total Return Quotations. Historical performance information for the Prime Money
Market Fund will be that of its corresponding predecessor J.P. Morgan Fund and
will be presented in accordance with applicable SEC staff interpretations. The
applicable financial information in the registration statement for the J.P.
Morgan Funds (Registration Nos. 033-54632 and 811-07340) is incorporated herein
by reference.

Below is set forth historical return information for each Fund or its
predecessor for the periods indicated:

Prime Money Market Fund (5/31/99 unaudited): Average annual total return, 1
year: 5.28%; average annual total return, 5 years: 5.48%; average annual total
return, 10 years: 5.45%; aggregate total return, 1 year: 5.28%; aggregate total
return, 5 years: 30.58%; aggregate total return, 10 years: 70.06%.

Treasury Money Market Fund (4/30/99 unaudited): Average annual total return, 1
year: 4.87%; average annual total return, 5 years: N/A; average annual total
return, commencement of operations (July 7, 1997) to period end: 5.36%;
aggregate total return, 1 year: 4.87%; aggregate total return, 5 years: N/A;
aggregate total return, commencement of operations (July 7, 1997) to period end:
9.93%.

Federal Money Market Fund (4/30/99 unaudited): Average annual total return, 1
year: 5.17%; average annual total return, 5 years: 5.27%; average annual total
return, 10 years: N/A; average annual total return, commencement of operations
(January 4, 1993) to period end: 4.76%; aggregate total return, 1 year: 5.17%;
aggregate total return, 5 years: 29.29%; aggregate total return, 10 years: N/A;
aggregate total return, commencement of operations (January 4, 1993) to period
end: 34.12%.

Aggregate total returns, reflecting the cumulative percentage change
over a measuring period, may also be calculated.

General. A Fund's performance will vary from time to time depending
upon market conditions, the composition of its corresponding Portfolio, and its
operating expenses. Consequently, any given performance quotation should not be
considered representative of a Fund's performance for any specified period in
the future. In addition, because performance will fluctuate, it may not provide
a basis for comparing an investment in a Fund with certain bank deposits or
other investments that pay a fixed yield or return for a stated period of time.

Comparative performance information may be used from time to time in
advertising the Funds' shares, including appropriate market indices or data from
Lipper Analytical Services, Inc., Micropal, Inc., Ibbotson Associates,
Morningstar Inc., the Dow Jones Industrial Average and other industry
publications.

From time to time, the Funds may, in addition to any other permissible
information, include the following types of information in advertisements,
supplemental sales literature and reports to shareholders: (1) discussions of
general economic or financial principles (such as the effects of compounding and
the benefits of dollar-cost averaging); (2) discussions of general economic
trends; (3) presentations of statistical data to supplement such discussions;
(4) descriptions of past or anticipated portfolio holdings for one or more of
the Funds; (5) descriptions of investment strategies for one or more of the
Funds; (6) descriptions or comparisons of various savings and investment
products (including, but not limited to, qualified retirement plans and
individual stocks and bonds), which may or may not include the Funds; (7)
comparisons of investment products (including the Funds) with relevant markets
or industry indices or other appropriate benchmarks; (8) discussions of Fund
rankings or ratings by recognized rating organizations; and (9) discussions of
various statistical methods quantifying the Fund's volatility relative to its
benchmark or to past performance, including risk adjusted measures. The Funds
may also include calculations, such as hypothetical compounding examples, which
describe hypothetical investment results in such communications. Such
performance examples will be based on an express set of assumptions and are not
indicative of the performance of any of the Funds.

PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

The Advisor places orders for all Portfolios for all purchases and sales of
portfolio securities, enters into repurchase agreements, and may enter into
reverse repurchase agreements and execute loans of portfolio securities on
behalf of all the Portfolios. See "Investment Objectives and Policies."

Fixed income and debt securities are generally traded at a net price
with dealers acting as principal for their own accounts without a stated
commission. The price of the security usually includes profit to the dealers. In
underwritten offerings, securities are purchased at a fixed price which includes
an amount of compensation to the underwriter, generally referred to as the
underwriter's concession or discount. On occasion, certain securities may be
purchased directly from an issuer, in which case no commissions or discounts are
paid.

Portfolio transactions for the Portfolios will be undertaken principally to
accomplish a Portfolio's objective in relation to expected movements in the
general level of interest rates. The Portfolios may engage in short-term trading
consistent with their objectives. See "Investment Objectives and Policies."

In connection with portfolio transactions for the Portfolios, the
Advisor intends to seek best execution on a competitive basis for both purchases
and sales of securities.

The Portfolios have a policy of investing only in securities with
maturities of not more than thirteen months, which will result in high portfolio
turnovers. Since brokerage commissions are not normally paid on investments
which the Portfolios make, turnover resulting from such investments should not
adversely affect the net asset value or net income of the Portfolios.

Subject to the overriding objective of obtaining best execution of
orders, the Advisor may allocate a portion of a Portfolio's brokerage
transactions to affiliates of the Advisor. In order for affiliates of the
Advisor to effect any portfolio transactions for a Portfolio, the commissions,
fees or other remuneration received by such affiliates must be reasonable and
fair compared to the commissions, fees, or other remuneration paid to other
brokers in connection with comparable transactions involving similar securities
being purchased or sold on a securities exchange during a comparable period of
time. Furthermore, the Trustees of each Portfolio, including a majority of the
Trustees who are not "interested persons," have adopted procedures which are
reasonably designed to provide that any commissions, fees, or other remuneration
paid to such affiliates are consistent with the foregoing standard.

Portfolio securities will not be purchased from or through or sold to
or through the Co-Administrator, the Distributor or the Advisor or any other
"affiliated person" (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Co-Administrator,
Distributor or Advisor when such entities are acting as principals, except to
the extent permitted by law. In addition, the Portfolios will not purchase
securities during the existence of any underwriting group relating thereto of
which the Advisor or an affiliate of the Advisor is a member, except to the
extent permitted by law.

On those occasions when the Advisor deems the purchase or sale of a
security to be in the best interests of a Portfolio as well as other customers
including other Portfolios, the Advisor to the extent permitted by applicable
laws and regulations, may, but is not obligated to, aggregate the securities to
be sold or purchased for a Portfolio with those to be sold or purchased for
other customers in order to obtain best execution, including lower brokerage
commissions if appropriate. In such event, allocation of the securities so
purchased or sold as well as any expenses incurred in the transaction will be
made by the Advisor in the manner it considers to be most equitable and
consistent with its fiduciary obligations to a Portfolio. In some instances,
this procedure might adversely affect a Portfolio.

MASSACHUSETTS TRUST

The Trust is a trust fund of the type commonly known as a
"Massachusetts business trust" of which each Fund is a separate and distinct
series. A copy of the Declaration of Trust for the Trust is on file in the
office of the Secretary of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Declaration of
Trust and the By-Laws of the Trust are designed to make the Trust similar in
most respects to a Massachusetts business corporation. The principal distinction
between the two forms concerns shareholder liability described below.

Effective January 9, 1997, the name of The Treasury Money Market
Portfolio was changed to The Federal Money Market Portfolio. Effective May 12,
1997, the name of The Money Market Portfolio was changed to The Prime Money
Market Portfolio. Effective January 1, 1998, the name of the Trust was changed
from "The JPM Institutional Funds" to "J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds," and
each Fund's name changed accordingly.

Under Massachusetts law, shareholders of such a trust may, under
certain circumstances, be held personally liable as partners for the obligations
of the trust which is not the case for a corporation. However, the Trust's
Declaration of Trust provides that the shareholders shall not be subject to any
personal liability for the acts or obligations of any Fund and that every
written agreement, obligation, instrument or undertaking made on behalf of any
Fund shall contain a provision to the effect that the shareholders are not
personally liable thereunder.

No personal liability will attach to the shareholders under any
undertaking containing such provision when adequate notice of such provision is
given, except possibly in a few jurisdictions. With respect to all types of
claims in the latter jurisdictions, (i) tort claims, (ii) contract claims where
the provision referred to is omitted from the undertaking, (iii) claims for
taxes, and (iv) certain statutory liabilities in other jurisdictions, a
shareholder may be held personally liable to the extent that claims are not
satisfied by a Fund. However, upon payment of such liability, the shareholder
will be entitled to reimbursement from the general assets of a Fund. The
Trustees intend to conduct the operations of the Trust in such a way so as to
avoid, as far as possible, ultimate liability of the shareholders for
liabilities of the Funds.

The Trust's Declaration of Trust further provides that the name of the
Trust refers to the Trustees collectively as Trustees, not as individuals or
personally, that no Trustee, officer, employee or agent of a Fund is liable to a
Fund or to a shareholder, and that no Trustee, officer, employee, or agent is
liable to any third persons in connection with the affairs of a Fund, except as
such liability may arise from his or its own bad faith, willful misfeasance,
gross negligence or reckless disregard of his or its duties to such third
persons. It also provides that all third persons shall look solely to Fund
property for satisfaction of claims arising in connection with the affairs of a
Fund. With the exceptions stated, the Trust's Declaration of Trust provides that
a Trustee, officer, employee, or agent is entitled to be indemnified against all
liability in connection with the affairs of a Fund.

The Trust shall continue without limitation of time subject to the
provisions in the Declaration of Trust concerning termination by action of the
shareholders or by action of the Trustees upon notice to the shareholders.

DESCRIPTION OF SHARES

The Trust is an open-end management investment company organized as a
Massachusetts business trust in which each Fund represents a separate series of
shares of beneficial interest. See "Massachusetts Trust."

The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited
number of full and fractional shares ($0.001 par value) of one or more series
and classes within any series and to divide or combine the shares (of any
series, if applicable) without changing the proportionate beneficial interest of
each shareholder in a Fund (or in the assets of other series, if applicable).
Each share represents an equal proportional interest in a Fund with each other
share. Upon liquidation of a Fund, holders are entitled to share pro rata in the
net assets of a Fund available for distribution to such shareholders. See
"Massachusetts Trust." Shares of a Fund have no preemptive or conversion rights
and are fully paid and nonassessable. The rights of redemption and exchange are
described in the Prospectus and elsewhere in this Statement of Additional
Information.

The shareholders of the Trust are entitled to one vote for each dollar
of net asset value (or a proportionate fractional vote in respect of a
fractional dollar amount), on matters on which shares of the Fund shall be
entitled to vote. Subject to the 1940 Act, the Trustees themselves have the
power to alter the number and the terms of office of the Trustees, to lengthen
their own terms, or to make their terms of unlimited duration subject to certain
removal procedures, and appoint their own successors, provided, however, that
immediately after such appointment the requisite majority of the Trustees have
been elected by the shareholders of the Trust. The voting rights of shareholders
are not cumulative so that holders of more than 50% of the shares voting can, if
they choose, elect all Trustees being selected while the shareholders of the
remaining shares would be unable to elect any Trustees. It is the intention of
the Trust not to hold meetings of shareholders annually. The Trustees may call
meetings of shareholders for action by shareholder vote as may be required by
either the 1940 Act or the Trust's Declaration of Trust.

Shareholders of the Trust have the right, upon the declaration in
writing or vote of more than two-thirds of its outstanding shares, to remove a
Trustee. The Trustees will call a meeting of shareholders to vote on removal of
a Trustee upon the written request of the record holders of 10% of the Trust's
shares. In addition, whenever ten or more shareholders of record who have been
such for at least six months preceding the date of application, and who hold in
the aggregate either shares having a net asset value of at least $25,000 or at
least 1% of the Trust's outstanding shares, whichever is less, shall apply to
the Trustees in writing, stating that they wish to communicate with other
shareholders with a view to obtaining signatures to request a meeting for the
purpose of voting upon the question of removal of any Trustee or Trustees and
accompanied by a form of communication and request which they wish to transmit,
the Trustees shall within five business days after receipt of such application
either: (1) afford to such applicants access to a list of the names and
addresses of all shareholders as recorded on the books of the Trust; or (2)
inform such applicants as to the approximate number of shareholders of record,
and the approximate cost of mailing to them the proposed communication and form
of request. If the Trustees elect to follow the latter course, the Trustees,
upon the written request of such applicants, accompanied by a tender of the
material to be mailed and of the reasonable expenses of mailing, shall, with
reasonable promptness, mail such material to all shareholders of record at their
addresses as recorded on the books, unless within five business days after such
tender the Trustees shall mail to such applicants and file with the SEC,
together with a copy of the material to be mailed, a written statement signed by
at least a majority of the Trustees to the effect that in their opinion either
such material contains untrue statements of fact or omits to state facts
necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading, or would be
in violation of applicable law, and specifying the basis of such opinion. After
opportunity for hearing upon the objections specified in the written statements
filed, the SEC may, and if demanded by the Trustees or by such applicants shall,
enter an order either sustaining one or more of such objections or refusing to
sustain any of them. If the SEC shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of
such objections, or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or more of
such objections, the SEC shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing,
that all objections so sustained have been met, and shall enter an order so
declaring, the Trustees shall mail copies of such material to all shareholders
with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such
tender.

The Trustees have authorized the issuance and sale to the public of
shares of 22 series of the Trust. The Trustees have no current intention to
create any classes within the initial series or any subsequent series. The
Trustees may, however, authorize the issuance of shares of additional series and
the creation of classes of shares within any series with such preferences,
privileges, limitations and voting and dividend rights as the Trustees may
determine. The proceeds from the issuance of any additional series would be
invested in separate, independently managed portfolios with distinct investment
objectives, policies and restrictions, and share purchase, redemption and net
asset valuation procedures. Any additional classes would be used to distinguish
among the rights of different categories of shareholders, as might be required
by future regulations or other unforeseen circumstances. All consideration
received by the Trust for shares of any additional series or class, and all
assets in which such consideration is invested, would belong to that series or
class, subject only to the rights of creditors of the Trust and would be subject
to the liabilities related thereto. Shareholders of any additional series or
class will approve the adoption of any management contract or distribution plan
relating to such series or class and of any changes in the investment policies
related thereto, to the extent required by the 1940 Act.

For information relating to mandatory redemption of Fund shares or
their redemption at the option of the Trust under certain circumstances, see the
Prospectus.

As of November 30, 1999, the following owned of record, or to the
knowledge of management, beneficially owned more than 5% of the outstanding
shares of:

Prime Money Market Fund: JPMIM as Institutional Prime Money Market Offset
Omnibus Account (24.88%); and Morgan as Agent for ASW Holding (5.08%).

Federal Money Market Fund: Global Card Holdings Inc. (7.64%); Morgan as
Agent for M. Monaghan (5.65%).

SPECIAL INFORMATION CONCERNING INVESTMENT STRUCTURE

Unlike other mutual funds which directly acquire and manage their own
portfolio of securities, each Fund is an open-end management investment company
which seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing all of its
investable assets in a corresponding Master Portfolio, a separate registered
investment company with the same investment objective and policies as the Fund.
Generally, when a Master Portfolio seeks a vote to change a fundamental
investment restriction, its feeder fund(s) will hold a shareholder meeting and
cast its vote proportionately, as instructed by its shareholders. Fund
shareholders are entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value (or a
proportionate fractional vote in respect of a fractional dollar amount), on
matters on which shares of the Fund shall be entitled to vote.

In addition to selling a beneficial interest to a Fund, a Portfolio may
sell beneficial interests to other mutual funds or institutional investors. Such
investors will invest in the Portfolio on the same terms and conditions and will
bear a proportionate share of the Portfolio's expenses. However, the other
investors investing in the Portfolio may sell shares of their own fund using a
different pricing structure than the Fund. Such different pricing structures may
result in differences in returns experienced by investors in other funds that
invest in the Portfolio. Such differences in returns are not uncommon and are
present in other mutual fund structures. Information concerning other holders of
interests in the Portfolio is available from Morgan at (800) 521-5411.

The Trust may withdraw the investment of a Fund from a Portfolio at any
time if the Board of Trustees of the Trust determines that it is in the best
interests of the Fund to do so. Upon any such withdrawal, the Board of Trustees
would consider what action might be taken, including the investment of all the
assets of the Fund in another pooled investment entity having the same
investment objective and restrictions in accordance with the investment policies
with respect to the Portfolio described above and in each Fund's prospectus.

Certain changes in a Portfolio's fundamental investment policies or
restrictions, or a failure by a Fund's shareholders to approve such change in
the Portfolio's investment restrictions, may require withdrawal of the Fund's
interest in the Portfolio. Any such withdrawal could result in a distribution in
kind of portfolio securities (as opposed to a cash distribution) from the
Portfolio which may or may not be readily marketable. The distribution in kind
may result in the Fund having a less diversified portfolio of investments or
adversely affect the Fund's liquidity, and the Fund could incur brokerage, tax
or other charges in converting the securities to cash. Notwithstanding the
above, there are other means for meeting shareholder redemption requests, such
as borrowing.

Smaller funds investing in a Portfolio may be materially affected by
the actions of larger funds investing in the Portfolio. For example, if a large
fund withdraws from the Portfolio, the remaining funds may subsequently
experience higher pro rata operating expenses, thereby producing lower returns.

Additionally, because a Portfolio would become smaller, it may become
less diversified, resulting in potentially increased portfolio risk (however,
these possibilities also exist for traditionally structured funds which have
large or institutional investors who may withdraw from a fund). Also, funds with
a greater pro rata ownership in the Portfolio could have effective voting
control of the operations of the Portfolio. Whenever the Fund is requested to
vote on matters pertaining to the Portfolio (other than a vote by the Fund to
continue the operation of the Portfolio upon the withdrawal of another investor
in the Portfolio), the Trust will hold a meeting of shareholders of the Fund and
will cast all of its votes proportionately as instructed by the Fund's
shareholders. The Trust will vote the shares held by Fund shareholders who do
not give voting instructions in the same proportion as the shares of Fund
shareholders who do give voting instructions. Shareholders of the Fund who do
not vote will have no affect on the outcome of such matters.

TAXES

The following discussion of tax consequences is based on U.S. federal
tax laws in effect on the date of this Statement of Additional Information.
These laws and regulations are subject to change by legislative or
administrative action, possibly on a retroactive basis.

Each Fund intends to qualify and remain qualified as a regulated
investment company under Subchapter M of the Code. As a regulated investment
company, a Fund must, among other things, (a) derive at least 90% of its gross
income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to loans of stock and
securities, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or
foreign currency and other income (including but not limited to gains from
options, futures, and forward contracts) derived with respect to its business of
investing in such securities or foreign currency; and (b) diversify its holdings
so that, at the end of each quarter of its taxable year, (i) at least 50% of the
value of the Fund's total assets is represented by cash, cash items, U.S.
Government securities, investments in other regulated investment companies, and
other securities limited, in respect of any one issuer, to an amount not greater
than 5% of the Fund's total assets, and 10% of the outstanding voting securities
of such issuer, and (ii) not more than 25% of the value of its total assets is
invested in the securities of any one issuer (other than U.S. Government
securities or securities of other regulated investment companies). As a
regulated investment company, a Fund (as opposed to its shareholders) will not
be subject to federal income taxes on the net investment income and capital gain
that it distributes to its shareholders, provided that at least 90% of its net
investment income and realized net short-term capital gain in excess of net
long-term capital loss for the taxable year is distributed in accordance with
the Code's timing requirements.

Under the Code, a Fund will be subject to a 4% excise tax on a portion
of its undistributed taxable income and capital gains if it fails to meet
certain distribution requirements by the end of the calendar year. Each Fund
intends to make distributions in a timely manner and accordingly does not expect
to be subject to the excise tax.

For federal income tax purposes, dividends that are declared by a Fund
in October, November or December as of a record date in such month and actually
paid in January of the following year generally will be treated as if they were
paid on December 31 of the year declared. Therefore, such dividends will be
taxable to a shareholder in the year declared rather than the year paid.

Distributions of net investment income and realized net short-term
capital gain in excess of net long-term capital losses (other than exempt
interest dividends) are generally taxable to shareholders of the Funds as
ordinary income whether such distributions are taken in cash or reinvested in
additional shares. Distributions to corporate shareholders of the Funds are not
eligible for the dividends received deduction. Distributions of net long-term
capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gain in excess of net short-term
capital loss) are taxable to shareholders of a Fund as long-term capital gains,
regardless of whether such distributions are taken in cash or reinvested in
additional shares and regardless of how long a shareholder has held shares in
the Fund. In general, long-term capital gain of an individual shareholder will
be subject to a 20% rate of tax.

To maintain a constant $1.00 per share net asset value, the Trustees of
the Trust may direct that the number of outstanding shares be reduced pro rata.
If this adjustment is made, it will reflect the lower market value of portfolio
securities and not realized losses. The adjustment may result in a shareholder
having more dividend income than net income in his account for a period. When
the number of outstanding shares of a Fund is reduced, the shareholder's basis
in the shares of the Fund may be adjusted to reflect the difference between
taxable income and net dividends actually distributed. This difference may be
realized as a capital loss when the shares are liquidated. Subject to certain
limited exceptions, capital losses cannot be used to offset ordinary income. See
"Net Asset Value."

Gains or losses on sales of portfolio securities will be treated as
long-term capital gains or losses if the securities have been held for more than
one year except in certain cases where, if applicable, a put option is acquired
or a call option is written thereon or straddle rules are otherwise applicable.
Other gains or losses on the sale of securities will be short-term capital gains
or losses. Gains and losses on the sale, lapse or other termination of options
on securities will be treated as gains and losses from the sale of securities.
Except as described below, if an option written by a Portfolio lapses or is
terminated through a closing transaction, such as a repurchase by the Portfolio
of the option from its holder, the Portfolio will realize a short-term capital
gain or loss, depending on whether the premium income is greater or less than
the amount paid by the Portfolio in the closing transaction. If securities are
purchased by a Portfolio pursuant to the exercise of a put option written by it,
the Portfolio will subtract the premium received from its cost basis in the
securities purchased.

Any distribution of net investment income or capital gains will have
the effect of reducing the net asset value of Fund shares held by a shareholder
by the same amount as the distribution. If the net asset value of the shares is
reduced below a shareholder's cost as a result of such a distribution, the
distribution, although constituting a return of capital to the shareholder, will
be taxable as described above.

Any gain or loss realized on the redemption or exchange of Fund shares
by a shareholder who is not a dealer in securities will be treated as long-term
capital gain or loss if the shares have been held for more than one year, and
otherwise as short-term capital gain or loss. Long-term capital gain of an
individual holder is subject to maximum tax rate of 20%. However, any loss
realized by a shareholder upon the redemption or exchange of shares in the Fund
held for six months or less will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the
extent of any long-term capital gain distributions received by the shareholder
with respect to such shares. Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors
concerning the limitations on the deductibility of capital losses. Additionally,
any loss realized on a redemption or exchange of shares of a Fund will be
disallowed to the extent the shares disposed of are replaced within a period of
61 days beginning 30 days before such disposition, such as pursuant to
reinvestment of a dividend in shares of the Fund.

The Prime Money Market Fund may invest in Equity Securities of foreign
issuers. If the Fund purchases shares in certain foreign corporations (referred
to as passive foreign investment companies ("PFICs") under the Code), the Fund
may be subject to federal income tax on a portion of an "excess distribution"
from such foreign corporation, including any gain from the disposition of such
shares, even though a portion of such income may have to be distributed as a
taxable dividend by the Fund to its shareholders. In addition, certain interest
charges may be imposed on the Fund as a result of such distributions.
Alternatively, the Fund may in some cases be permitted to include each year in
its income and distribute to shareholders a pro rata portion of the foreign
investment fund's income, whether or not distributed to the Fund.

The Prime Money Market Fund will be permitted to "mark to market" any
marketable stock held by the Fund in a PFIC. If the Fund made such an election,
it would include in income each year an amount equal to its share of the excess,
if any, of the fair market value of the PFIC stock as of the close of the
taxable year over the adjusted basis of such stock. The Fund would be allowed a
deduction for its share of the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of the PFIC
stock over its fair market value as of the close of the taxable year, but only
to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains with respect to the stock included
by the Fund for prior taxable years.

If a correct and certified taxpayer identification number is not on
file, the Fund is required, subject to certain exemptions, to withhold 31% of
certain payments made or distributions declared to non-corporate shareholders.

Foreign Shareholders. Dividends of net investment income and
distributions of realized net short-term gain in excess of net long-term loss to
a shareholder who, as to the United States, is a nonresident alien individual,
fiduciary of a foreign trust or estate, foreign corporation or foreign
partnership (a "foreign shareholder") will be subject to U.S. withholding tax at
the rate of 30% (or lower treaty rate) unless the dividends are effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or business of the shareholder, in which case the
dividends will be subject to tax on a net income basis at the graduated rates
applicable to U.S. individuals or domestic corporations. Distributions treated
as long term capital gains to foreign shareholders will not be subject to U.S.
tax unless the distributions are effectively connected with the shareholder's
trade or business in the United States or, in the case of a shareholder who is a
nonresident alien individual, the shareholder was present in the United States
for more than 182 days during the taxable year and certain other conditions are
met.

In the case of a foreign shareholder who is a nonresident alien
individual or foreign entity, a Fund may be required to withhold U.S. federal
income tax as "backup withholding" at the rate of 31% from distributions treated
as long-term capital gains and from the proceeds of redemptions, exchanges or
other dispositions of Fund shares unless IRS Form W-8 (or any successor form) is
provided. Transfers by gift of shares of a Fund by a foreign shareholder who is
a nonresident alien individual will not be subject to U.S. federal gift tax, but
the value of shares of the Fund held by such a shareholder at his or her death
will be includible in his or her gross estate for U.S. federal estate tax
purposes.

State and Local Taxes. Each Fund may be subject to state or local taxes
in jurisdictions in which the Fund is deemed to be doing business. In addition,
the treatment of a Fund and its shareholders in those states which have income
tax laws might differ from treatment under the federal income tax laws.
Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to any state or
local taxes.

Other Taxation. The Trust is organized as a Massachusetts business
trust and, under current law, neither the Trust nor any Fund is liable for any
income or franchise tax in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, provided that each
Fund continues to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M
of the Code. The Portfolios are organized as New York trusts. The Portfolios are
not subject to any federal income taxation or income or franchise tax in the
State of New York or The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The investment by a Fund
in its corresponding Portfolio does not cause the Fund to be liable for any
income or franchise tax in the State of New York.

The Year 2000 Initiative

With the new millennium rapidly approaching, organizations have
continued to examine their computer systems to ensure they are year 2000
compliant. The issue, in simple terms, is that many existing computer systems
use only two numbers to identify a year in the date field with the assumption
that the first two digits are always "19." As the century is implied in the
date, on January 1, 2000, computers that are not year 2000 compliant will assume
the year is 1900. Systems that calculate, compare, or sort using the incorrect
date will cause erroneous results, ranging from system malfunctions to incorrect
or incomplete transaction processing. If not remedied, potential risks include
business interruption or shutdown, financial loss, reputation loss, and/or legal
liability.

J.P. Morgan has undertaken a firmwide initiative to address the year
2000 issue and has developed a comprehensive plan to prepare, as appropriate,
its computer systems. Each business line has taken responsibility for
identifying and fixing the problem within its own area of operation and for
addressing all interdependencies. A multidisciplinary team of internal and
external experts supports the business teams by providing direction and firmwide
coordination. Working together, the business and multidisciplinary teams have
completed a thorough education and awareness initiative and a global inventory
and assessment of J.P. Morgan's technology and application portfolio to
understand the scope of the year 2000 impact at J.P. Morgan. J.P. Morgan has
renovated and tested these technologies and applications in partnership with
external consulting and software development organizations, as well as with year
2000 tool providers. J.P. Morgan has also worked with key external parties,
including clients, counterparties, vendors, exchanges, depositories, utilities,
suppliers, agents and regulatory agencies, to stem the potential risks the year
2000 problem poses to J.P. Morgan and to the global financial community. For
potential failure scenarios where the risks are deemed significant and where
such risk is considered to have a higher probability of occurrence, J.P. Morgan
has developed business recovery/contingency plans. These plans will define the
infrastructure that should be put in place for managing a failure during the
millennium event itself.

Costs associated with efforts to prepare J.P. Morgan's systems for the
year 2000 approximated $93.3 million in 1997, $132.7 million in 1998 and $36.6
million for the first eight months of 1999. J.P. Morgan is continuing its
efforts to prepare its systems for the year 2000. The total cost to become
year-2000 compliant is estimated at $300 million (for firmwide systems upgrade,
not just for systems relating to mutual funds), for internal systems renovation
and testing, testing equipment, and both internal and external resources working
on the project. The costs associated with J.P. Morgan becoming year-2000
compliant will be borne by J.P. Morgan and not the Funds.

APPENDIX A

Description of Security Ratings

STANDARD & POOR'S

Corporate and Municipal Bonds

AAA - Debt rated AAA have the highest ratings assigned by Standard & Poor's to a
debt obligation. Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is extremely
strong.

AA - Debt rated AA have a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal and differ from the highest rated issues only in a small degree.

A - Debt rated A have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal
although they are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in
circumstances and economic conditions than debt in higher rated categories.

BBB - Debt rated BBB are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay interest
and repay principal. Whereas they normally exhibit adequate protection
parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more
likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest and repay principal for
debt in this category than for debt in higher rated categories.

Commercial Paper, including Tax Exempt

A - Issues assigned this highest rating are regarded as having the greatest
capacity for timely payment. Issues in this category are further refined
with the designations 1, 2, and 3 to indicate the relative degree of
safety.

A-1 - This designation indicates that the degree of safety regarding timely
payment is very strong.

Short-Term Tax-Exempt Notes

SP-1 - The short-term tax-exempt note rating of SP-1 is the highest
rating assigned by Standard & Poor's and has a very strong or
strong capacity to pay principal and interest. Those issues
determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics are
given a "plus" (+) designation.

SP-2 - The short-term tax-exempt note rating of SP-2 has a satisfactory capacity
to pay principal and interest.

<PAGE>

MOODY'S

Corporate and Municipal Bonds

Aaa - Bonds which are rated Aaa are judged to be of the best quality.
They carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are
generally referred to as "gilt edge." Interest payments are
protected by a large or by an exceptionally stable margin and
principal is secure. While the various protective elements are
likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are most
unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of such
issues.

Aa - Bonds which are rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by
all standards. Together with the Aaa group they comprise what are
generally known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower than
the best bonds because margins of protection may not be as large
as in Aaa securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be
of greater amplitude or there may be other elements present which
make the long term risks appear somewhat larger than in Aaa
securities.

A - Bonds which are rated A possess many favorable investment attributes and
are to be considered as upper medium grade obligations. Factors giving
security to principal and interest are considered adequate but elements may
be present which suggest a susceptibility to impairment sometime in the
future.

Baa - Bonds which are rated Baa are considered as medium grade
obligations, i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly
secured. Interest payments and principal security appear adequate
for the present but certain protective elements may be lacking or
may be characteristically unreliable over any great length of
time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and
in fact have speculative characteristics as well.

Commercial Paper, including Tax Exempt

Prime-1 - Issuers rated Prime-1 (or related supporting institutions) have
a superior capacity for repayment of short-term promissory
obligations. Prime-1 repayment capacity will normally be
evidenced by the following characteristics:

- Leading market positions in well established industries.
- High rates of return on funds employed.
- Conservative capitalization structures with moderate reliance on debt
and ample asset protection.
- Broad margins in earnings coverage of fixed financial charges and
high internal cash generation.
- Well established access to a range of financial markets and assured
sources of alternate liquidity.

Short-Term Tax Exempt Notes

MIG-1 - The short-term tax-exempt note rating MIG-1 is the highest
rating assigned by Moody's for notes judged to be the best
quality. Notes with this rating enjoy strong protection from
established cash flows of funds for their servicing or from
established and broad-based access to the market for refinancing,
or both.

MIG-2- MIG-2 rated notes are of high quality but with margins of protection not
as large as MIG-1.

the Fund has no current intention of engaging in this form of leverage. 2 Mr.

GENERAL

This Statement of Additional Information relates only to the J.P.
Morgan Institutional Service Tax Exempt Money Market Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund
is a series of shares of beneficial interest of the J.P. Morgan Institutional
Funds, an open-end management investment company formed as a Massachusetts
business trust (the "Trust"). In addition to the Fund, the Trust consists of
other series representing separate investment funds (each a "J.P. Morgan
Institutional Fund"). The other J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds are covered by
separate Statements of Additional Information.

This Statement of Additional Information describes the financial
history, investment objective and policies, management and operation of the Fund
and provides additional information with respect to the Fund and should be read
in conjunction with the Fund's current Prospectus (the "Prospectus").
Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings accorded to
them in the Prospectus. The Fund's executive offices are located at 60 State
Street, Suite 1300, Boston, Massachusetts 02109.

Unlike other mutual funds which directly acquire and manage their own
portfolio of securities, the Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by
investing all of its investable assets in a corresponding Master Portfolio (the
"Portfolio"), an open-end management investment company having the same
investment objective as the Fund. The Fund invests in the Portfolio through a
two-tier master-feeder investment fund structure. See "Special Information
Concerning Investment Structure."

The Portfolio is advised by J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. ("JPMIM"
or the "Advisor").

Investments in the Fund are not deposits or obligations of, or
guaranteed or endorsed by, Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York,
("Morgan"), an affiliate of the Advisor, or any other bank. Shares of the Fund
are not federally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the
Federal Reserve Board, or any other governmental agency. An investment in the
Fund is subject to risk that may cause the value of the investment to fluctuate,
and when the investment is redeemed, the value may be higher or lower than the
amount originally invested by the investor.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES

The following discussion supplements the information regarding the
investment objective of the Fund and the policies to be employed to achieve the
objective by the Portfolio as set forth herein and in the Prospectus. The
investment objective of the Fund and the investment objective of its
corresponding Portfolio are identical. Accordingly, references below to the
Portfolio also include the Fund; similarly, references to the Fund also include
the Portfolio unless the context requires otherwise.

The Fund is designed for investors who seek high current income
consistent with the preservation of capital and same day liquidity from a
portfolio of high quality money market instruments. The Fund's investment
objective is maximize current income that is exempt from federal income tax
consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. See "Taxes."
The Fund attempts to achieve this objective by investing all of its investable
assets in The Tax Exempt Money Market Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a diversified
open-end management investment company having the same investment objective as
the Fund.

The Portfolio attempts to achieve its investment objective by
maintaining a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of not more than 90
days and by investing in U.S. dollar-denominated securities described in this
Statement of Additional Information that meet certain rating criteria, present
minimal credit risks, have effective maturities of not more than thirteen months
and earn interest wholly exempt from federal income tax in the opinion of bond
counsel for the issuer. If attractive municipal obligations are not available,
the Fund may hold cash rather than invest in taxable money market instruments.
The Portfolio, however, may temporarily invest up to 20% of total assets in
taxable securities in abnormal market conditions, for defensive purposes only.
For purposes of this calculation, obligations that generate income that may be
treated as a preference item for purposes of the alternative minimum tax shall
not be considered taxable securities. See "Quality and Diversification
Requirements." Interest on these securities may be subject to state and local
taxes. For more detailed information regarding tax matters, including the
applicability of the alternative minimum tax, see "Taxes."

Money Market Instruments

A description of the various types of money market instruments that may be
purchased by the Fund appears below. Also see "Quality and Diversification
Requirements."

Tax Exempt Obligations

The Fund may invest in tax exempt obligations to the extent consistent with
the Fund's investment objective and policies. A description of the various types
of tax exempt obligations which may be purchased by the Fund appears below. See
"Quality and Diversification Requirements."

Municipal Bonds. Municipal bonds are debt obligations issued by the
states, territories and possessions of the United States and the District of
Columbia, by their political subdivisions and by duly constituted authorities
and corporations. For example, states, territories, possessions and
municipalities may issue municipal bonds to raise funds for various public
purposes such as airports, housing, hospitals, mass transportation, schools,
water and sewer works. They may also issue municipal bonds to refund
outstanding obligations and to meet general operating expenses. Public
authorities issue municipal bonds to obtain funding for privately operated
facilities, such as housing and pollution control facilities, for industrial
facilities or for water supply, gas, electricity or waste disposal facilities.

Municipal bonds may be general obligation or revenue bonds. General
obligation bonds are secured by the issuer's pledge of its full faith, credit
and taxing power for the payment of principal and interest. Revenue bonds are
payable from revenues derived from particular facilities, from the proceeds of
a special excise tax or from other specific revenue sources. They are not
generally payable from the general taxing power of a municipality.

<PAGE>

Municipal Notes. Municipal notes are subdivided into three categories of
short-term obligations: municipal notes, municipal commercial paper and
municipal demand obligations.

Municipal notes are short-term obligations with a maturity at the time
of issuance ranging from six months to five years. The principal types of
municipal notes include tax anticipation notes, bond anticipation notes,
revenue anticipation notes, grant anticipation notes and project notes. Notes
sold in anticipation of collection of taxes, a bond sale, or receipt of other
revenues are usually general obligations of the issuing municipality or
agency.

Municipal commercial paper typically consists of very short-term
unsecured negotiable promissory notes that are sold to meet seasonal working
capital or interim construction financing needs of a municipality or agency.
While these obligations are intended to be paid from general revenues or
refinanced with long-term debt, they frequently are backed by letters of
credit, lending agreements, note repurchase agreements or other credit
facility agreements offered by banks or institutions.

Municipal demand obligations are subdivided into two types: variable rate
demand notes and master demand obligations.

Variable rate demand notes are tax exempt municipal obligations or
participation interests that provide for a periodic adjustment in the interest
rate paid on the notes. They permit the holder to demand payment of the notes,
or to demand purchase of the notes at a purchase price equal to the unpaid
principal balance, plus accrued interest either directly by the issuer or by
drawing on a bank letter of credit or guaranty issued with respect to such
note. The issuer of the municipal obligation may have a corresponding right to
prepay at its discretion the outstanding principal of the note plus accrued
interest upon notice comparable to that required for the holder to demand
payment. The variable rate demand notes in which the Fund may invest are
payable, or are subject to purchase, on demand usually on notice of seven
calendar days or less. The terms of the notes provide that interest rates are
adjustable at intervals ranging from daily to six months, and the adjustments
are based upon the prime rate of a bank or other appropriate interest rate
index specified in the respective notes. Variable rate demand notes are valued
at amortized cost; no value is assigned to the right of the Fund to receive
the par value of the obligation upon demand or notice.

Master demand obligations are tax exempt municipal obligations that
provide for a periodic adjustment in the interest rate paid and permit daily
changes in the amount borrowed. The interest on such obligations is, in the
opinion of counsel for the borrower, excluded from gross income for federal
income tax purposes. For a description of the attributes of master demand
obligations, see "Money Market Instruments" above. Although there is no
secondary market for master demand obligations, such obligations are
considered by the Fund to be liquid because they are payable upon demand. The
Fund has no specific percentage limitations on investments in master demand
obligations.

The Fund may purchase securities of the type described above if they
have effective maturities within thirteen months. As required by regulation of
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), this means that on the
date of acquisition the final stated maturity (or if called for redemption,
the redemption date) must be within thirteen months or the maturity must be
deemed to be no more than 397 days because of a maturity shortening mechanism,
such as a variable interest rate, coupled with a conditional or unconditional
right to resell the investment to the issuer or a third party. See "Variable
Rate Demand Notes" and "Puts." A substantial portion of the Fund's portfolio
is subject to maturity shortening mechanisms consisting of variable interest
rates coupled with unconditional rights to resell the securities to the
issuers either directly or by drawing on a domestic or foreign bank letter of
credit or other credit support arrangement. See "Foreign Investments."

Puts. The Fund may purchase without limit municipal bonds or notes
together with the right to resell the bonds or notes to the seller at an
agreed price or yield within a specified period prior to the maturity date of
the bonds or notes. Such a right to resell is commonly known as a "put." The
aggregate price for bonds or notes with puts may be higher than the price for
bonds or notes without puts. Consistent with the Fund's investment objective
and subject to the supervision of the Trustees, the purpose of this practice
is to permit the Fund to be fully invested in tax exempt securities while
preserving the necessary liquidity to purchase securities on a when-issued
basis, to meet unusually large redemptions, and to purchase at a later date
securities other than those subject to the put. The principal risk of puts is
that the writer of the put may default on its obligation to repurchase. The
Advisor will monitor each writer's ability to meet its obligations under puts.

Puts may be exercised prior to the expiration date in order to fund
obligations to purchase other securities or to meet redemption requests. These
obligations may arise during periods in which proceeds from sales of Fund
shares and from recent sales of portfolio securities are insufficient to meet
obligations or when the funds available are otherwise allocated for
investment. In addition, puts may be exercised prior to the expiration date in
order to take advantage of alternative investment opportunities or in the
event the Advisor revises its evaluation of the creditworthiness of the issuer
of the underlying security. In determining whether to exercise puts prior to
their expiration date and in selecting which puts to exercise, the Advisor
considers the amount of cash available to the Fund, the expiration dates of
the available puts, any future commitments for securities purchases,
alternative investment opportunities, the desirability of retaining the
underlying securities in the Fund's portfolio and the yield, quality and
maturity dates of the underlying securities.

The Fund values any municipal bonds and notes which are subject to puts
at amortized cost. No value is assigned to the put. The cost of any such put
is carried as an unrealized loss from the time of purchase until it is
exercised or expires. The Board of Trustees would, in connection with the
determination of the value of a put, consider, among other factors, the
creditworthiness of the writer of the put, the duration of the put, the dates
on which or the periods during which the put may be exercised and the
applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.

Since the value of the put is partly dependent on the ability of the
put writer to meet its obligation to repurchase, the Fund's policy is to enter
into put transactions only with municipal securities dealers who are approved
by the Advisor. Each dealer will be approved on its own merits, and it is the
Fund's general policy to enter into put transactions only with those dealers
which are determined to present minimal credit risks. In connection with such
determination, the Trustees will review regularly the Advisor's list of
approved dealers, taking into consideration, among other things, the ratings,
if available, of their equity and debt securities, their reputation in the
municipal securities markets, their net worth, their efficiency in
consummating transactions and any collateral arrangements, such as letters of
credit, securing the puts written by them. Commercial bank dealers normally
will be members of the Federal Reserve System, and other dealers will be
members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or members of
a national securities exchange. The Trustees have directed the Advisor not to
enter into put transactions with any dealer which in the judgment of the
Advisor becomes more than a minimal credit risk. In the event that a dealer
should default on its obligation to repurchase an underlying security, the
Fund is unable to predict whether all or any portion of any loss sustained
could subsequently be recovered from such dealer.

The Trust has been advised by counsel that the Fund will be considered
the owner of the securities subject to the puts so that the interest on the
securities is tax exempt income to the Fund. Such advice of counsel is based
on certain assumptions concerning the terms of the puts and the attendant
circumstances.

Taxable Investments

The Fund attempts to invest its assets in tax exempt securities and
when investments are not available, may hold cash or may invest to a limited
extent in taxable securities. While the Fund does not currently intend to
invest in taxable securities, in abnormal market conditions for defensive
purposes only, it may invest up to 20% of the value of its total assets in
securities, the interest income on which may be subject to federal, state or
local income taxes. The taxable investments permitted for the Fund include
obligations of the U.S. Government and its agencies and instrumentalities,
bank obligations, commercial paper and repurchase agreements.

The Fund may make investments in other debt securities with remaining
effective maturities of not more than thirteen months, including without
limitation corporate bonds, and other obligations described in the Prospectus
or this Statement of Additional Information.

U.S. Treasury Securities. The Fund may invest in direct obligations of the
U.S. Treasury, including Treasury bills, notes and bonds, all of which are
backed as to principal and interest payments by the full faith and credit of the
United States.

Additional U.S. Government Obligations. The Fund may invest in
obligations issued or guaranteed by U.S. Government agencies or
instrumentalities. These obligations may or may not be backed by the "full
faith and credit" of the United States. Securities which are backed by the
full faith and credit of the United States include obligations of the
Government National Mortgage Association, the Farmers Home Administration, and
the Export-Import Bank. In the case of securities not backed by the full faith
and credit of the United States, the Fund must look principally to the federal
agency issuing or guaranteeing the obligation for ultimate repayment and may
not be able to assert a claim against the United States itself in the event
the agency or instrumentality does not meet its commitments. Securities in
which the Fund may invest that are not backed by the full faith and credit of
the United States include, but are not limited to: (i) obligations of the
Tennessee Valley Authority, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, the
Federal Home Loan Banks and the U.S. Postal Service, each of which has the
right to borrow from the U.S. Treasury to meet its obligations; (ii)
securities issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association, which are
supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase
the agency's obligations; and (iii) obligations of the Federal Farm Credit
System and the Student Loan Marketing Association, each of whose obligations
may be satisfied only by the individual credits of the issuing agency.

Bank Obligations. The Fund, unless otherwise noted in the Prospectus or
below, may invest in negotiable certificates of deposit, time deposits and
bankers' acceptances of (i) banks, savings and loan associations and savings
banks which have more than $2 billion in total assets and are organized under
the laws of the United States or any state, (ii) foreign branches of these
banks or of foreign banks of equivalent size (Euros) and (iii) U.S. branches
of foreign banks of equivalent size (Yankees). The Fund may not invest in
obligations of foreign branches of foreign banks. The Fund will not invest in
obligations for which the Advisor, or any of its affiliated persons, is the
ultimate obligor or accepting bank.

Commercial Paper. The Fund may invest in commercial paper, including
master demand obligations. Master demand obligations are obligations that
provide for a periodic adjustment in the interest rate paid and permit daily
changes in the amount borrowed. Master demand obligations are governed by
agreements between the issuer and Morgan acting as agent, for no additional
fee. The monies loaned to the borrower come from accounts managed by Morgan or
its affiliates, pursuant to arrangements with such accounts. Interest and
principal payments are credited to such accounts. Morgan, an affiliate of the
Advisor, has the right to increase or decrease the amount provided to the
borrower under an obligation. The borrower has the right to pay without
penalty all or any part of the principal amount then outstanding on an
obligation together with interest to the date of payment. Since these
obligations typically provide that the interest rate is tied to the Federal
Reserve commercial paper composite rate, the rate on master demand obligations
is subject to change. Repayment of a master demand obligation to participating
accounts depends on the ability of the borrower to pay the accrued interest
and principal of the obligation on demand which is continuously monitored by
Morgan. Since master demand obligations typically are not rated by credit
rating agencies, the Fund may invest in such unrated obligations only if at
the time of an investment the obligation is determined by the Advisor to have
a credit quality which satisfies the Fund's quality restrictions. See "Quality
and Diversification Requirements." Although there is no secondary market for
master demand obligations, such obligations are considered by the Fund to be
liquid because they are payable upon demand. The Fund does not have any
specific percentage limitation on investments in master demand obligations. It
is possible that the issuer of a master demand obligation could be a client of
Morgan to whom Morgan, in its capacity as a commercial bank, has made a loan.

Repurchase Agreements. The Fund, unless otherwise noted in the
Prospectus or below, may enter into repurchase agreements with brokers,
dealers or banks that meet the credit guidelines approved by the Fund's
Trustees. In a repurchase agreement, the Fund buys a security from a seller
that has agreed to repurchase the same security at a mutually agreed upon date
and price. The resale price normally is in excess of the purchase price,
reflecting an agreed upon interest rate. This interest rate is effective for
the period of time the Fund is invested in the agreement and is not related to
the coupon rate on the underlying security. A repurchase agreement may also be
viewed as a fully collateralized loan of money by the Fund to the seller. The
period of these repurchase agreements will usually be short, from overnight to
one week, and at no time will the Fund invest in repurchase agreements for
more than 397 days. The securities which are subject to repurchase agreements,
however, may have maturity dates in excess of 397 days from the effective date
of the repurchase agreement. The Fund will always receive securities as
collateral whose market value is, and during the entire term of the agreement
remains, at least equal to 100% of the dollar amount invested by the Fund in
the agreement plus accrued interest, and the Fund will make payment for such
securities only upon physical delivery or upon evidence of book entry transfer
to the account of the Custodian. The Fund will be fully collateralized within
the meaning of paragraph (a)(4) of Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). If the seller defaults, the Fund might
incur a loss if the value of the collateral securing the repurchase agreement
declines and might incur disposition costs in connection with liquidating the
collateral. In addition, if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect
to the seller of the security, realization upon disposal of the collateral by
the Fund may be delayed or limited.

Additional Investments

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Securities. The Fund may purchase
securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. For example, delivery
of and payment for these securities can take place a month or more after the
date of the purchase commitment. The purchase price and the interest rate
payable, if any, on the securities are fixed on the purchase commitment date
or at the time the settlement date is fixed. The value of such securities is
subject to market fluctuation and for money market instruments and other fixed
income securities no interest accrues to the Fund until settlement takes
place. At the time the Fund makes the commitment to purchase securities on a
when-issued or delayed delivery basis, it will record the transaction, reflect
the value each day of such securities in determining its net asset value and,
if applicable, calculate the maturity for the purposes of average maturity
from that date. At the time of settlement a when-issued security may be valued
at less than the purchase price. To facilitate such acquisitions, the Fund
will maintain with the Custodian a segregated account with liquid assets,
consisting of cash, U.S. Government securities or other appropriate
securities, in an amount at least equal to such commitments. On delivery dates
for such transactions, the Fund will meet its obligations from maturities or
sales of the securities held in the segregated account and/or from cash flow.
If the Fund chooses to dispose of the right to acquire a when-issued security
prior to its acquisition, it could, as with the disposition of any other
portfolio obligation, incur a gain or loss due to market fluctuation. Also, a
Fund may be disadvantaged if the other party to the transaction defaults.

Investment Company Securities. Securities of other investment companies
may be acquired by the Fund and Portfolio to the extent permitted under the
1940 Act or any order pursuant thereto. These limits currently require that,
as determined immediately after a purchase is made, (i) not more than 5% of
the value of the Fund's total assets will be invested in the securities of any
one investment company, (ii) not more than 10% of the value of its total
assets will be invested in the aggregate in securities of investment companies
as a group, and (iii) not more than 3% of the outstanding voting stock of any
one investment company will be owned by the Fund, provided however, that the
Fund may invest all of its investable assets in an open-end investment company
that has the same investment objective as the Fund (its corresponding
Portfolio). As a shareholder of another investment company, the Fund or
Portfolio would bear, along with other shareholders, its pro rata portion of
the other investment company's expenses, including advisory fees. These
expenses would be in addition to the advisory and other expenses that the Fund
or Portfolio bears directly in connection with its own operations.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may enter into reverse
repurchase agreements. In a reverse repurchase agreement, a Fund sells a
security and agrees to repurchase the same security at a mutually agreed upon
date and price reflecting the interest rate effective for the term of the
agreement. For purposes of the 1940 Act a reverse repurchase agreement is also
considered as the borrowing of money by the Fund and, therefore, a form of
leverage. Leverage may cause any gains or losses for the Fund to be magnified.
The Fund will invest the proceeds of borrowings under reverse repurchase
agreements. In addition, except for liquidity purposes, the Fund will enter
into a reverse repurchase agreement only when the expected return from the
investment of the proceeds is greater than the expense of the transaction. The
Fund will not invest the proceeds of a reverse repurchase agreement for a
period which exceeds the duration of the reverse repurchase agreement. The
Fund will establish and maintain with the custodian a separate account with a
segregated portfolio of securities in an amount at least equal to its purchase
obligations under its reverse repurchase agreements. See "Investment
Restrictions" for the Fund's limitations on reverse repurchase agreements and
bank borrowings.

Loans of Portfolio Securities. Subject to applicable investment
restrictions, the Fund is permitted to lend its securities in an amount up to
33 1/3% of the value of the Fund's net assets. The Fund may lend its
securities if such loans are secured continuously by cash or equivalent
collateral or by a letter of credit in favor of the Fund at least equal at all
times to 100% of the market value of the securities loaned, plus accrued
interest. While such securities are on loan, the borrower will pay the Fund
any income accruing thereon. Loans will be subject to termination by the Fund
in the normal settlement time, generally three business days after notice, or
by the borrower on one day's notice. Borrowed securities must be returned when
the loan is terminated. Any gain or loss in the market price of the borrowed
securities which occurs during the term of the loan inures to the Fund and its
respective investors. The Fund may pay reasonable finders' and custodial fees
in connection with a loan. In addition, the Fund will consider all facts and
circumstances including the creditworthiness of the borrowing financial
institution, and the Fund will not make any loans in excess of one year. Loans
of portfolio securities may be considered extensions of credit by the Fund.
The risks to the Fund with respect to borrowers of its portfolio securities
are similar to the risks to the Fund with respect to sellers in repurchase
agreement transactions. See "Repurchase Agreements". The Fund will not lend
its securities to any officer, Trustee, Director, employee or other affiliate
of the Fund, the Advisor or the Distributor, unless otherwise permitted by
applicable law.

Illiquid Investments, Privately Placed and Certain Unregistered
Securities. The Fund may invest in privately placed, restricted, Rule 144A or
other unregistered securities. The Fund may not acquire any illiquid holdings
if, as a result thereof, more than 10% of the Fund's net assets would be in
illiquid investments. Subject to this non-fundamental policy limitation, the
Portfolio may acquire investments that are illiquid or have limited liquidity,
such as private placements or investments that are not registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") and cannot be offered for
public sale in the United States without first being registered under the 1933
Act. An illiquid investment is any investment that cannot be disposed of
within seven days in the normal course of business at approximately the amount
at which it is valued by the Portfolio. The price the Portfolio pays for
illiquid securities or receives upon resale may be lower than the price paid
or received for similar securities with a more liquid market. Accordingly the
valuation of these securities will reflect any limitations on their liquidity.

The Fund may also purchase Rule 144A securities sold to institutional
investors without registration under the 1933 Act. These securities may be
determined to be liquid in accordance with guidelines established by the
Advisor and approved by the Trustees. The Trustees will monitor the Advisor's
implementation of these guidelines on a periodic basis.

As to illiquid investments, the Fund is subject to a risk that should
the Fund decide to sell them when a ready buyer is not available at a price
the Fund deems representative of their value, the value of the Fund's net
assets could be adversely affected. Where an illiquid security must be
registered under the 1933 Act, before it may be sold, the Fund may be
obligated to pay all or part of the registration expenses, and a considerable
period may elapse between the time of the decision to sell and the time the
Fund may be permitted to sell a security under an effective registration
statement. If, during such a period, adverse market conditions were to
develop, the Fund might obtain a less favorable price than prevailed when it
decided to sell.

Synthetic Instruments. The Fund may invest in certain synthetic
variable rate instruments. Such instruments generally involve the deposit of a
long-term tax exempt bond in a custody or trust arrangement and the creation
of a mechanism to adjust the long-term interest rate on the bond to a variable
short-term rate and a right (subject to certain conditions) on the part of the
purchaser to tender it periodically to a third part at par. Morgan will review
the structure of synthetic variable rate instruments to identify credit and
liquidity risks (including the conditions under which the right to tender the
instrument would no longer be available) and will monitor those risks. In the
event that the right to tender the instrument is no longer available, the risk
to the Portfolio will be that of holding the long-term bond, which may require
the disposition of the bond which could be at a loss. In the case of some
types of instruments credit enhancement is not provided, and if certain
events, which may include (a) default in the payment of principal or interest
on the underlying bond, (b) downgrading of the bond below investment grade or
(c) a loss of the bond's tax exempt status, occur, then (i) the put will
terminate, (ii) the risk to the Fund will be that of holding a long-term bond,
and (iii) the disposition of the bond may be required which could be at a
loss.

Quality and Diversification Requirements

The Fund intends to meet the diversification requirements of the 1940
Act. Current 1940 Act requirements require that with respect to 75% of the
assets of the Fund are subject to the following fundamental limitations: (1)
the Fund may not invest more than 5% of its total assets in the securities of
any one issuer, except obligations of the U.S. Government, its agencies and
instrumentalities, and (2) the Fund may not own more than 10% of the
outstanding voting securities of any one issuer. As for the other 25% of the
Fund's assets not subject to the limitation described above, there is no
limitation on investment of these assets under the 1940 Act, so that all of
such assets may be invested in securities of any one issuer. Investments not
subject to the limitations described above could involve an increased risk to
the Fund should an issuer, or a state or its related entities, be unable to
make interest or principal payments or should the market value of such
securities decline.

At the time the Fund invests in any taxable commercial paper, master
demand obligation, bank obligation or repurchase agreement, the issuer must
have outstanding debt rated A or higher by Moody's or Standard & Poor's, the
issuer's parent corporation, if any, must have outstanding commercial paper
rated Prime-1 by Moody's or A-1 by Standard & Poor's, or if no such ratings
are available, the investment must be of comparable quality in Morgan's
opinion.

For purposes of diversification and concentration under the 1940 Act,
identification of the issuer of municipal bonds or notes depends on the terms
and conditions of the obligation. If the assets and revenues of an agency,
authority, instrumentality or other political subdivision are separate from
those of the government creating the subdivision and the obligation is backed
only by the assets and revenues of the subdivision, such subdivision is
regarded as the sole issuer. Similarly, in the case of an industrial
development revenue bond or pollution control revenue bond, if the bond is
backed only by the assets and revenues of the nongovernmental user, the
nongovernmental user is regarded as the sole issuer. If in either case the
creating government or another entity guarantees an obligation, the guaranty
is regarded as a separate security and treated as an issue of such guarantor.
Since securities issued or guaranteed by states or municipalities are not
voting securities, there is no limitation on the percentage of a single
issuer's securities which the Fund may own so long as it does not invest more
than 5% of its total assets that are subject to the diversification limitation
in the securities of such issuer, except obligations issued or guaranteed by
the U.S. Government. Consequently, the Fund may invest in a greater percentage
of the outstanding securities of a single issuer than would an investment
company which invests in voting securities. See "Investment Restrictions."

In order to attain its objective of maintaining a stable net asset
value, the Fund will limit its investments to securities that present minimal
credit risks and securities (other than New York State municipal notes) that
are rated within the highest rating assigned to short-term debt securities
(or, in the case of New York State municipal notes, within one of the two
highest ratings assigned to short-term debt securities) by at least two NRSROs
or by the only NRSRO that has rated the security. Securities which originally
had a maturity of over one year are subject to more complicated, but generally
similar rating requirements. The Fund may also purchase unrated securities
that are of comparable quality to the rated securities described above.
Additionally, if the issuer of a particular security has issued other
securities of comparable priority and security and which have been rated in
accordance with the criteria described above that security will be deemed to
have the same rating as such other rated securities.

In addition, the Board of Trustees has adopted procedures which (i)
require the Fund to maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of
not more than 90 days and to invest only in securities with a remaining
maturity of not more than thirteen months and (ii) require the Fund, in the
event of certain downgrading of or defaults on portfolio holdings, to dispose
of the holding, subject in certain circumstances to a finding by the Trustees
that disposing of the holding would not be in the Fund's best interest.

The credit quality of variable rate demand notes and other municipal
obligations is frequently enhanced by various credit support arrangements with
domestic or foreign financial institutions, such as letters of credit,
guarantees and insurance, and these arrangements are considered when
investment quality is evaluated. The rating of credit-enhanced municipal
obligations by a NRSRO may be based primarily or exclusively on the credit
support arrangement.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

The investment restrictions of the Fund and Portfolio are identical,
unless otherwise specified. Accordingly, references below to the Fund also
include the Portfolio unless the context requires otherwise; similarly,
references to the Portfolio also include the Fund unless the context requires
otherwise.

The investment restrictions below have been adopted by the Trust, with
respect to the Fund, and, except as noted, by the Portfolio. Except where
otherwise noted, these investment restrictions are "fundamental" policies
which, under the 1940 Act, may not be changed without the vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund or Portfolio, as the case may
be. A "majority of the outstanding voting securities" is defined in the 1940
Act as the lesser of (a) 67% or more of the voting securities present at a
meeting if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities
are present or represented by proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding
voting securities. The percentage limitations contained in the restrictions
below apply at the time of the purchase of securities. Whenever the Fund is
requested to vote on a change in the fundamental investment restrictions of
the Portfolio, the Trust will hold a meeting of Fund shareholders and will
cast its votes as instructed by the Fund's shareholders.

The Fund may not:

1. Borrow money, except from banks for temporary, extraordinary or
emergency purposes and then only in amounts up to 10% of the value of
the Fund's total assets, taken at cost at the time of such borrowing;
or mortgage, pledge or hypothecate any assets except in connection
with any such borrowing in amounts up to 10% of the value of the
Fund's net assets at the time of such borrowing. The Fund will not
purchase securities while borrowings exceed 5% of the Fund's total
assets, provided, however, that the Fund may increase its interest in
an open-end management investment company with the same investment
objective and restrictions as the Fund's while such borrowings are
outstanding. This borrowing provision, for example, facilitates the
orderly sale of portfolio securities in the event of abnormally heavy
redemption requests or in the event of redemption requests during
periods of tight market supply. This provision is not for leveraging
purposes;

2. Invest more than 25% of its total assets in securities of governmental
units located in any one state, territory, or possession of the United
States. The Fund may invest more then 25% of its total assets in
industrial development and pollution control obligations whether or not
the users of facilities financed by such obligations are in the same
industry;1

3. Purchase industrial revenue bonds if, as a result of such purchase,
more than 5% of total Fund assets would be invested in industrial
revenue bonds where payment of principal and interest are the
responsibility of companies with fewer than three years of operating
history;

4. Purchase the securities or other obligations of any one issuer if,
immediately after such purchase, more than 5% of the value of the
Fund's total assets would be invested in securities or other
obligations of any one such issuer, provided, however, that the Fund
may invest all or part of its investable assets in an open-end
management investment company with the same investment objective and
restrictions as the Fund's. Each state and each political subdivision,
agency or instrumentality of such state and each multi-state agency of
which such state is a member will be a separate issuer if the security
is backed only by the assets and revenues of that issuer. If the
security is guaranteed by another entity, the guarantor will be deemed
to be the issuer. This limitation shall not apply to securities issued
or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or
instrumentalities or to permitted investments of up to 25% of the
Fund's total assets;2

5. Make loans, except through the purchase or holding of debt obligations,
repurchase agreements, or loans of portfolio securities in accordance
with the Fund's investment objective and policies (see "Investment
Objectives and Policies");
6. Purchase or sell puts, calls, straddles, spreads, or any combination
thereof except to the extent that securities subject to a demand
obligation, stand-by commitments and puts may be purchased (see
"Investment Objectives and Policies"); real estate; commodities;
commodity contracts; or interests in oil, gas, or mineral exploration
or development programs. However, the Fund may purchase municipal
bonds, notes or commercial paper secured by interests in real estate;

7. Purchase securities on margin, make short sales of securities, or
maintain a short position, provided that this restriction shall not be
deemed to be applicable to the purchase or sale of when-issued
securities or of securities for delayed delivery;

8. Acquire securities of other investment companies, except as permitted by the
1940 Act;

9. Act as an underwriter of securities; or

10. Issue senior securities, except as may otherwise be permitted by the
foregoing investment restrictions or under the 1940 Act or any rule,
order or interpretation thereunder.

The Tax Exempt Money Market Portfolio, except as noted below, has
adopted substantially similar fundamental investment restrictions. Investment
restrictions numbered 3, 7 and 8 above are non-fundamental for the Portfolio.
The Portfolio's fundamental borrowing restriction allows the Portfolio to borrow
to the extent permitted by law, currently 33-1/3% of total assets. The
Portfolio, however, has adopted a non-fundamental investment restriction
limiting its borrowing ability to 10% of total assets. These differences are not
expected to materially affect the management of the Portfolio.

Non-Fundamental Investment Restriction. The investment restriction
described below is not a fundamental policy of the Fund may be changed by their
respective Trustees. This non-fundamental investment policy requires that the
Fund may not:

(i) acquire any illiquid securities, such as repurchase agreements with
more than seven days to maturity or fixed time deposits with a duration
of over seven calendar days, if as a result thereof, more than 10% of
the Fund's net assets would be in investments that are illiquid.

For purposes of fundamental investment restrictions regarding industry
concentration, the Advisor may classify issuers by industry in accordance with
classifications set forth in the Directory of Companies Filing Annual Reports
With The Securities and Exchange Commission or other sources. In the absence of
such classification or if the Advisor determines in good faith based on its own
information that the economic characteristics affecting a particular issuer make
it more appropriately considered to be engaged in a different industry, the
Advisor may classify an issuer accordingly. For instance, personal credit
finance companies and business credit finance companies are deemed to be
separate industries and wholly owned finance companies are considered to be in
the industry of their parents if their activities are primarily related to
financing the activities of their parents.

TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS

Trustees

The Trustees of the Trust, who are also the Trustees of the Portfolio,
their business addresses, principal occupations during the past five years and
dates of birth are set forth below.

WILLIAM G. BURNS--Trustee; Retired, Former Vice Chairman and Chief
Financial Officer, NYNEX. His address is 2200 Alaqua Drive, Longwood, Florida

contributed $23,610 to a defined contribution plan on his behalf and paid
$17,700 in insurance premiums for his benefit.

(***)No investment company within the fund complex has a pension or retirement
plan. Currently there are 17 investment companies (14 investment companies
comprising the Master Portfolios, the J.P. Morgan Funds, the Trust and J.P.
Morgan Series Trust) in the fund complex.

The Trustees decide upon general policies and are responsible for
overseeing the Trust's and Portfolio's business affairs. The Portfolio and the
Trust have entered into a Fund Services Agreement with Pierpont Group, Inc. to
assist the Trustees in exercising their overall supervisory responsibilities
over the affairs of the Portfolio and the Trust. Pierpont Group, Inc. was
organized in July 1989 to provide services for The Pierpont Family of Funds (now
the J.P. Morgan Family of Funds), and the Trustees are the equal and sole
shareholders of Pierpont Group, Inc. The Trust and the Portfolio have agreed to
pay Pierpont Group, Inc. a fee in an amount representing its reasonable costs in
performing these services to the Trust, the Portfolio and certain other
registered investment companies subject to similar agreements with Pierpont
Group, Inc. These costs are periodically reviewed by the Trustees. The principal
offices of Pierpont Group, Inc. are located at 461 Fifth Avenue, New York, New
York 10017.

The aggregate fees paid to Pierpont Group, Inc. by the Fund and
Portfolio during the indicated fiscal years are set forth below:

Fund -- For the period November 4, 1997 (commencement of operations) through
August 31, 1998 and for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999: $26 and $282.

Portfolio -- For the fiscal years ended August 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999: $43,285,
$53,097 and $46,121.

Officers

The Trust's and Portfolio's executive officers (listed below), other
than the Chief Executive Officer, are provided and compensated by Funds
Distributor, Inc. ("FDI"), a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Boston
Institutional Group, Inc. The officers conduct and supervise the business
operations of the Trust and the Portfolio. The Trust and the Portfolio have no
employees.

The officers of the Trust and the Portfolio, their principal
occupations during the past five years and dates of birth are set forth below.
Unless otherwise specified, each officer holds the same position with the Trust
and the Portfolio. The business address of each of the officers unless otherwise
noted is Funds Distributor, Inc., 60 State Street, Suite 1300, Boston,
Massachusetts 02109.

MATTHEW HEALEY; Chief Executive Officer; Chairman, Pierpont Group, since
prior to 1993. His address is Pine Tree Country Club Estates, 10286 Saint
Andrews Road, Boynton Beach, Florida 33436. His date of birth is August 23,
1937.

KATHLEEN K. MORRISEY. Vice President and Assistant Secretary. Vice
President and Assistant Secretary of FDI. Manager of Treasury Services
Administration and an officer of certain investment companies advised or
administered by Montgomery Asset Management, L.P. and Dresdner RCM Global
Investors, Inc., and their respective affiliates. From July 1994 to November
1995, Ms. Morrisey was a Fund Accountant II for Investors Bank & Trust Company.
Her date of birth is July 5, 1972.

INVESTMENT ADVISOR

The Fund has not retained the services of an investment adviser because
the Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing all of its
investable assets in a corresponding Portfolio. Subject to the supervision of
the Portfolio's Trustees, the Advisor makes the Portfolio's day-to-day
investment decisions, arranges for the execution of Portfolio transactions and
generally manages the Portfolio's investments. Effective October 1, 1998 the
Portfolio's investment advisor is JPMIM. Prior to that date, Morgan was the
Portfolio's investment advisor. JPMIM, a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan
& Co. Incorporated ("J.P. Morgan"), is a registered investment adviser under the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, which manages employee benefit
funds of corporations, labor unions and state and local governments and the
accounts of other institutional investors, including investment companies.
Certain of the assets of employee benefit accounts under its management are
invested in commingled pension trust funds for which Morgan serves as trustee.

The investment advisory services the Advisor provides to the Portfolio
are not exclusive under the terms of the Advisory Agreement. The Advisor is free
to and does render similar investment advisory services to others. The Advisor
serves as investment advisor to personal investors and other investment
companies and acts as fiduciary for trusts, estates and employee benefit plans.
Certain of the assets of trusts and estates under management are invested in
common trust funds for which the Advisor serves as trustee. The accounts which
are managed or advised by the Advisor have varying investment objectives and the
Advisor invests assets of such accounts in investments substantially similar to,
or the same as, those which are expected to constitute the principal investments
of the Portfolio. Such accounts are supervised by employees of the Advisor who
may also be acting in similar capacities for the Portfolio. See "Portfolio
Transactions."

The Portfolio is managed by employees of the Advisor who, in acting for
their customers, including the Portfolio, do not discuss their investment
decisions with any personnel of J.P. Morgan or any personnel of other divisions
of the Advisor or with any of its affiliated persons, with the exception of
certain other investment management affiliates of J.P. Morgan.

As compensation for the services rendered and related expenses such as
salaries of advisory personnel borne by the Advisor under the Investment
Advisory Agreement, the Portfolio has agreed to pay the Advisor a fee, which is
computed daily and may be paid monthly, equal to the annual rate of 0.20% of the
Portfolio's average daily net assets up to $1 billion and 0.10% of the
Portfolio's average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion.

The Portfolio paid the following advisory fees to Morgan and JPMIM, as
applicable, for the fiscal years ended August 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999:
$2,267,159, $2,710,567 and $3,052,997.

The Investment Advisory Agreement provides that it will continue in
effect for a period of two years after execution only if specifically approved
thereafter annually in the same manner as the Distribution Agreement. See
"Distributor" below. The Investment Advisory Agreement will terminate
automatically if assigned and is terminable at any time without penalty by a
vote of a majority of the Portfolio's Trustees, or by a vote of the holders of a
majority of the Portfolio's outstanding voting securities, on 60 days' written
notice to the Advisor and by the Advisor on 90 days' written notice to the
Portfolio. See "Additional Information."

Under separate agreements, Morgan provides certain financial, fund
accounting and administrative services to the Trust and the Portfolio and
shareholder services for the Trust. See "Services Agent" and "Shareholder
Servicing" below.

DISTRIBUTOR

FDI serves as the Trust's exclusive Distributor and holds itself
available to receive purchase orders for the Fund's shares. In that capacity,
FDI has been granted the right, as agent of the Trust, to solicit and accept
orders for the purchase of the Fund's shares in accordance with the terms of the
Distribution Agreement between the Trust and FDI. Under the terms of the
Distribution Agreement between FDI and the Trust, FDI receives no compensation
in its capacity as the Trust's distributor. FDI is a wholly owned indirect
subsidiary of Boston Institutional Group, Inc. FDI also serves as exclusive
placement agent for the Portfolio. FDI currently provides administration and
distribution services for a number of other investment companies.

The Distribution Agreement shall continue in effect with respect to the
Fund for a period of two years after execution only if it is approved at least
annually thereafter (i) by a vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund's
outstanding shares or by its Trustees and (ii) by a vote of a majority of the
Trustees of the Trust who are not "interested persons" (as defined by the 1940
Act) of the parties to the Distribution Agreement, cast in person at a meeting
called for the purpose of voting on such approval (see "Trustees and Officers").
The Distribution Agreement will terminate automatically if assigned by either
party thereto and is terminable at any time without penalty by a vote of a
majority of the Trustees of the Trust, a vote of a majority of the Trustees who
are not "interested persons" of the Trust, or by a vote of the holders of a
majority of the Fund's outstanding shares as defined under "Additional
Information," in any case without payment of any penalty on 60 days' written
notice to the other party. The principal offices of FDI are located at 60 State
Street, Suite 1300, Boston, Massachusetts 02109.

CO-ADMINISTRATOR

Under Co-Administration Agreements with the Trust and the Portfolio
dated August 1, 1996, FDI also serves as the Trust's and the Portfolio's
Co-Administrator. The Co-Administration Agreements may be renewed or amended by
the respective Trustees without a shareholder vote. The Co-Administration
Agreements are terminable at any time without penalty by a vote of a majority of
the Trustees of the Trust or the Portfolio, as applicable, on not more than 60
days' written notice nor less than 30 days' written notice to the other party.
The Co-Administrator may subcontract for the performance of its obligations,
provided, however, that unless the Trust or the Portfolio, as applicable,
expressly agrees in writing, the Co-Administrator shall be fully responsible for
the acts and omissions of any subcontractor as it would for its own acts or
omissions. See "Services Agent" below.

FDI (i) provides office space, equipment and clerical personnel for
maintaining the organization and books and records of the Trust and the
Portfolio; (ii) provides officers for the Trust and the Portfolio; (iii)
prepares and files documents required for notification of state securities
administrators; (iv) reviews and files marketing and sales literature; (v) files
regulatory documents and mails Portfolio communications to Trustees and
investors; and (vi) maintains related books and records.

For its services under the Co-Administration Agreements, the Fund and
Portfolio have agreed to pay FDI fees equal to its allocable share of an annual
complex-wide charge of $425,000 plus FDI's out-of-pocket expenses. The amount
allocable to the Fund or Portfolio is based on the ratio of its net assets to
the aggregate net assets of the Trust, the Master Portfolios and certain other
investment companies subject to similar agreements with FDI.

The Fund paid the following administrative fees to FDI for the fiscal
period November 4, 1997 (commencement of operations) through August 31, 1998 and
the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999: $28 and $187.

The Portfolio paid the following administrative fees to FDI for the
fiscal years ended August 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999: $25,082, $24,913 and $20,175.

SERVICES AGENT

The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, and the Portfolio have entered into
Administrative Services Agreements (the "Services Agreements") with Morgan
pursuant to which Morgan is responsible for certain administrative and related
services provided to the Fund and Portfolio. The Services Agreements may be
terminated at any time, without penalty, by the Trustees or Morgan, in each case
on not more than 60 days' nor less than 30 days' written notice to the other
party.

Under the Services Agreements, the Fund and the Portfolio have agreed
to pay Morgan fees equal to its allocable share of an annual complex-wide
charge. This charge is calculated daily based on the aggregate net assets of the
Master Portfolios and J.P. Morgan Series Trust in accordance with the following
annual schedule: 0.09% of the first $7 billion of their aggregate average daily
net assets and 0.04% of their aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $7
billion, less the complex-wide fees payable to FDI. The portion of this charge
payable by the Fund and Portfolio is determined by the proportionate share that
its net assets bear to the total net assets of the Trust, the Master Portfolios,
the other investors in the Master Portfolios for which Morgan provides similar
services and J.P. Morgan Series Trust.

The Fund paid the following fees paid Morgan as Services Agent for the
fiscal period November 4, 1997 (commencement of operations) through August 31,
1998 and for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999: $392 and $3,144.

The Portfolio paid the following fees paid Morgan as Services Agent for
the fiscal years ended August 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999: $397,340, $502,654 and
$542,467.

CUSTODIAN AND TRANSFER AGENT

State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street"), 225 Franklin
Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, serves as the Trust's and the Portfolio's
custodian and fund accounting agent and the Fund's transfer and dividend
disbursing agent. Pursuant to the Custodian Contracts, State Street is
responsible for maintaining the books of account and records of portfolio
transactions and holding portfolio securities and cash. The custodian maintains
portfolio transaction records. As transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent,
State Street is responsible for maintaining account records detailing the
ownership of Fund shares and for crediting income, capital gains and other
changes in share ownership to shareholder accounts.

SHAREHOLDER SERVICING

The Trust on behalf of the Fund has entered into a Shareholder
Servicing Agreement with Morgan pursuant to which Morgan acts as shareholder
servicing agent for its customers and for other Fund investors who are customers
of a Service Organization. Under this agreement, Morgan is responsible for
performing shareholder account, administrative and servicing functions, which
include but are not limited to, answering inquiries regarding account status and
history, the manner in which purchases and redemptions of Fund shares may be
effected, and certain other matters pertaining to the Fund; assisting customers
in designating and changing dividend options, account designations and
addresses; providing necessary personnel and facilities to coordinate the
establishment and maintenance of shareholder accounts and records with the
Fund's transfer agent; transmitting purchase and redemption orders to the Fund's
transfer agent and arranging for the wiring or other transfer of funds to and
from customer accounts in connection with orders to purchase or redeem Fund
shares; verifying purchase and redemption orders, transfers among and changes in
accounts; informing the Distributor of the gross amount of purchase orders for
Fund shares; monitoring the activities of the Fund's transfer agent; and
providing other related services.

Under the Shareholder Servicing Agreement, the Fund has agreed to pay
Morgan for these services a fee at the annual rate (expressed as a percentage of
the average daily net asset value of Fund shares owned by or for shareholders
for whom Morgan is acting as shareholder servicing agent) of 0.05%. Morgan acts
as shareholder servicing agent for all shareholders.

The Fund paid the following shareholder servicing fee to Morgan for the
period November 4, 1997 (commencement of operations) through August 31, 1998 and
for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999: $696 and $5,935.

As discussed under "Investment Advisor," the Glass-Steagall Act and
other applicable laws and regulations limit the activities of bank holding
companies and certain of their subsidiaries in connection with registered
open-end investment companies. The activities of Morgan in acting as shareholder
servicing agent for Fund shareholders under the Shareholder Servicing Agreement
and providing administrative services to the Fund and the Portfolio under the
Services Agreements, and the activities of JPMIM in acting as Advisor to the
Portfolio under the Investment Advisory Agreement may raise issues under these
laws. However, JPMIM and Morgan believe that they may properly perform these
services and the other activities described in the Prospectus without violation
of the Glass-Steagall Act or other applicable banking laws or regulations.

If Morgan were prohibited from providing any of the services under the
Shareholder Servicing Agreement and the Services Agreements, the Trustees would
seek an alternative provider of such services. In such event, changes in the
operation of the Fund or the Portfolio might occur and a shareholder might no
longer be able to avail himself or herself of any services then being provided
to shareholders by Morgan.

SERVICE ORGANIZATION

The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, has adopted a service plan (the
"Plan") with respect to the shares which authorizes the Fund to compensate
Service Organizations for providing certain account administration and other
services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. Pursuant
to the Plan, the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, enters into agreements with
Service Organizations which purchase shares on behalf of their customers
("Service Agreements"). Under such Service Agreements, the Service Organizations
may: (a) act, directly or through an agent, as the sole shareholder of record
and nominee for all customers, (b) maintain or assist in maintaining account
records for each customer who beneficially owns shares, and (c) process or
assist in processing customer orders to purchase, redeem and exchange shares,
and handle or assist in handling the transmission of funds representing the
customers' purchase price or redemption proceeds. As compensation for such
services, the Trust on behalf of the Fund pays each Service Organization a
service fee in an amount up to 0.25% (on an annualized basis) of the average
daily net assets of the shares of the Fund attributable to or held in the name
of such Service Organization for its customers (0.20% where J.P. Morgan acts as
a service organization).

Conflicts of interest restrictions (including the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974) may apply to a Service Organization's receipt of
compensation paid by the Trust in connection with the investment of fiduciary
funds in shares. Service Organizations, including banks regulated by the
Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation, and investment advisers and other money managers subject
to the jurisdiction of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Department of
Labor or state securities commissions, are urged to consult legal advisers
before investing fiduciary assets in shares. In addition, under some state
securities laws, banks and other financial institutions purchasing shares on
behalf of their customers may be required to register as dealers.

The Trustees of the Trust, including a majority of Trustees who are not
interested persons of the Trust and who have no direct or indirect financial
interest in the operation of such Plan or the related Service Agreements,
initially voted to approve the Plan and Service Agreements at a meeting called
for the purpose of voting on such Plan and Service Agreements on April 9, 1997.
The Plan was approved by the initial shareholders of each Fund on June 3, 1997,
remains in effect until July 10, 1998 and will continue in effect thereafter
only if such continuance is specifically approved annually by a vote of the
Trustees in the manner described above. The Plan may not be amended to increase
materially the amount to be spent for the services described therein without
approval of the shareholders of the Fund, and all material amendments of the
Plan must also be approved by the Trustees in the manner described above. The
Plan may be terminated at any time by a majority of the Trustees as described
above or by vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Fund. The
Service Agreements may be terminated at any time, without payment of any
penalty, by vote of a majority of the disinterested Trustees as described above
or by a vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Fund on not more
than 60 days' written notice to any other party to the Service Agreements. The
Service Agreements shall terminate automatically if assigned. So long as the
Plans are in effect, the selection and nomination of those Trustees who are not
interested persons shall be determined by the non-interested members of the
Board of Trustees. The Trustees have determined that, in their judgment, there
is a reasonable likelihood that the Plan will benefit the Funds and Fund
shareholders. In the Trustees' quarterly review of the Plan and Service
Agreements, they will consider their continued appropriateness and the level of
compensation provided therein.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

The independent accountants of the Trust and the Portfolio are
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, 1177 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York
10036. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP conducts an annual audit of the financial
statements of the Fund and the Portfolio, assists in the preparation and/or
review of the Fund's and the Portfolio's federal and state income tax returns
and consults with the Fund and the Portfolio as to matters of accounting and
federal and state income taxation.

EXPENSES

In addition to the fees payable to Pierpont Group, Inc., JPMIM, Morgan
and FDI under various agreements discussed under "Trustees and Officers,"
"Investment Advisor," "Co-Administrator", "Distributor", "Services Agent" and
"Shareholder Servicing" above, the Fund and the Portfolio are responsible for
usual and customary expenses associated with their respective operations. Such
expenses include organization expenses, legal fees, accounting and audit
expenses, insurance costs, the compensation and expenses of the Trustees, costs
associated with their registration fees under federal securities laws, and
extraordinary expenses applicable to the Fund or the Portfolio. For the Fund,
such expenses also include transfer, registrar and dividend disbursing costs,
the expenses of printing and mailing reports, notices and proxy statements to
Fund shareholders, and filing fees under state securities laws. For the
Portfolio, such expenses also include custodian fees. For additional information
regarding waivers or expense subsidies, see the Prospectus.

J.P. Morgan has agreed that it will reimburse the Fund until February
28, 2001 to the extent necessary to maintain the Fund's total operating expenses
(which include expenses of the Fund and the Portfolio) at the annual rate of
0.45% of the Fund's average daily net assets. This limit does not cover
extraordinary expenses.

J.P. Morgan reimbursed the following in fees and other expenses under
the expense reimbursement arrangement described above for the period November 3,
1997 (commencement of operations) through August 31, 1998 and for the fiscal
year ended August 31, 1999: $72,847 and $77,179.

PURCHASE OF SHARES

Additional Minimum Balance Information. If your account balance falls
below the minimum for 30 days as a result of selling shares (and not because of
performance), the Fund reserves the right to request that you buy more shares or
close your account. If your account balance is still below the minimum 60 days
after notification, the Fund reserves the right to close out your account and
send the proceeds to the address of record.

References in the Prospectus and this Statement of Additional
Information to customers of Morgan or a Service Organization include customers
of their affiliates and references to transactions by customers with Morgan or a
Service Organization include transactions with their affiliates. Only Fund
investors who are using the services of a financial institution acting as
shareholder servicing agent pursuant to an agreement with the Trust on behalf of
the Fund may make transactions in shares of the Fund.

The Fund may, at its own option, accept securities in payment for
shares. The securities delivered in such a transaction are valued by the method
described in "Net Asset Value" as of the day the Fund receives the securities.
This is a taxable transaction to the shareholder. Securities may be accepted in
payment for shares only if they are, in the judgment of the Advisor, appropriate
investments for the Portfolio. In addition, securities accepted in payment for
shares must: (i) meet the investment objective and policies of the Portfolio;
(ii) be acquired by the Fund for investment and not for resale (other than for
resale to the Portfolio); and (iii) be liquid securities which are not
restricted as to transfer either by law or liquidity of market. The Fund
reserves the right to accept or reject at its own option any and all securities
offered in payment for its shares.

Prospective investors may purchase shares with the assistance of a
Service Organization, and the Service Organization may charge the investor a fee
for this service and other services it provides to its customers.

REDEMPTION OF SHARES

Investors may redeem shares as described in the Prospectus.
Shareholders redeeming shares of the Fund should be aware that the Fund attempts
to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share; however, there can be
no assurance that it will be able to continue to do so, and in that case the net
asset value of the Fund's shares might deviate from $1.00 per share.
Accordingly, a redemption request might result in payment of a dollar amount
which differs from the number of shares redeemed. See "Net Asset Value" below.

If the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, and the Portfolio determine that
it would be detrimental to the best interest of the remaining shareholders of
the Fund to make payment wholly or partly in cash, payment of the redemption
price may be made in whole or in part by a distribution in kind of securities
from the Portfolio, in lieu of cash, in conformity with the applicable rule of
the SEC. If shares are redeemed in kind, the redeeming shareholder might incur
transaction costs in converting the assets into cash. The method of valuing
portfolio securities is described under "Net Asset Value," and such valuation
will be made as of the same time the redemption price is determined. The Trust,
on behalf of the Fund, has elected to be governed by Rule 18f-1 under the 1940
Act pursuant to which the Portfolio is obligated to redeem shares solely in cash
up to the lesser of $250,000 or one percent of the net asset value of the Fund
during any 90-day period for any one shareholder. The Trust will redeem Fund
shares in kind only if it has received a redemption in kind from the Portfolio
and therefore shareholders of the Fund that receive redemptions in kind will
receive securities of the Portfolio. The Portfolio has advised the Trust that
the Portfolio will not redeem in kind except in circumstances in which the Fund
is permitted to redeem in kind.

Further Redemption Information. Investors should be aware that
redemptions from the Fund may not be processed if a redemption request is not
submitted in proper form. To be in proper form, the Fund must have received the
shareholder's taxpayer identification number and address. In addition, if a
shareholder sends a check for the purchase of fund shares and shares are
purchased before the check has cleared, the transmittal of redemption proceeds
from the shares will occur upon clearance of the check which may take up to 15
days. The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, and the Portfolio reserve the right to
suspend the right of redemption and to postpone the date of payment upon
redemption as follows: (i) for up to seven days, (ii) during periods when the
New York Stock Exchange is closed for other than weekends and holidays or when
trading on such Exchange is restricted as determined by the SEC by rule or
regulation, (iii) during periods in which an emergency, as determined by the
SEC, exists that causes disposal by the Portfolio of, or evaluation of the net
asset value of, its portfolio securities to be unreasonable or impracticable, or
(iv) for such other periods as the SEC may permit.

EXCHANGE OF SHARES

An investor may exchange shares from the Fund into shares of any other
J.P. Morgan Institutional or J.P. Morgan mutual fund, without charge. An
exchange may be made so long as after the exchange the investor has shares, in
each fund in which he or she remains an investor, with a value of at least that
fund's minimum investment amount. Shareholders should read the prospectus of the
fund into which they are exchanging and may only exchange between fund accounts
that are registered in the same name, address and taxpayer identification
number. Shares are exchanged on the basis of relative net asset value per share.
Exchanges are in effect redemptions from one fund and purchases of another fund
and the usual purchase and redemption procedures and requirements are applicable
to exchanges. The Fund generally intends to pay redemption proceeds in cash,
however, since it reserves the right at its sole discretion to pay redemptions
over $250,000 in-kind as a portfolio of representative securities rather than in
cash, the Fund reserves the right to deny an exchange request in excess of that
amount. See "Redemption of Shares". Shareholders subject to federal income tax
who exchange shares in one fund for shares in another fund may recognize capital
gain or loss for federal income tax purposes. Shares of the Fund to be acquired
are purchased for settlement when the proceeds from redemption become available.
The Trust reserves the right to discontinue, alter or limit the exchange
privilege at any time.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

The Fund declares and pays dividends and distributions as described in
the Prospectus.

NET ASSET VALUE

The Fund computes its net asset value once daily on Monday through
Friday as described in the Prospectus. The net asset value will not be computed
on the day the following legal holidays are observed: New Year's Day, Martin
Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence
Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.
In the event that trading in the money markets is scheduled to end earlier than
the close of the New York Stock Exchange in observance of these holidays, the
Fund and Portfolio would expect to close for purchases and redemptions an hour
in advance of the end of trading in the money markets. The Fund and the
Portfolio may also close for purchases and redemptions at such other times as
may be determined by the Board of Trustees to the extent permitted by applicable
law. On any business day when the Bond Market Association ("BMA") recommends
that the securities market close early, the Fund reserves the right to cease
accepting purchase and redemption orders for same business day credit at the
time BMA recommends that the securities market close. On days the Fund closes
early, purchase and redemption orders received after the Fund closes will be
credited the next business day. The days on which net asset value is determined
are the Fund's business days.

The net asset value of the Fund is equal to the value of the Fund's
investment in the Portfolio (which is equal to the Fund's pro rata share of the
total investment of the Fund and of any other investors in the Portfolio less
the Fund's pro rata share of the Portfolio's liabilities) less the Fund's
liabilities. The following is a discussion of the procedures used by the
Portfolio in valuing its assets.

The Portfolio's portfolio securities are valued by the amortized cost
method. The purpose of this method of calculation is to attempt to maintain a
constant net asset value per share of the Fund of $1.00. No assurances can be
given that this goal can be attained. The amortized cost method of valuation
values a security at its cost at the time of purchase and thereafter assumes a
constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, regardless of the
impact of fluctuating interest rates on the market value of the instrument. If a
difference of more than 1/2 of 1% occurs between valuation based on the
amortized cost method and valuation based on market value, the Trustees will
take steps necessary to reduce such deviation, such as changing the Fund's
dividend policy, shortening the average portfolio maturity, realizing gains or
losses, or reducing the number of outstanding Fund shares. Any reduction of
outstanding shares will be effected by having each shareholder contribute to the
Fund's capital the necessary shares on a pro rata basis. Each shareholder will
be deemed to have agreed to such contribution in these circumstances by his
investment in the Fund. See "Taxes."

PERFORMANCE DATA

From time to time, the Fund may quote performance in terms of yield,
actual distributions, total return or capital appreciation in reports, sales
literature and advertisements published by the Trust. Current performance
information for the Fund may be obtained by calling the number provided on the
cover page of this Statement of Additional Information.

Yield Quotations. As required by regulations of the SEC, current yield
for the Fund is computed by determining the net change exclusive of capital
changes in the value of a hypothetical pre-existing account having a balance of
one share at the beginning of a seven-day calendar period, dividing the net
change in account value of the account at the beginning of the period, and
multiplying the return over the seven-day period by 365/7. For purposes of the
calculation, net change in account value reflects the value of additional shares
purchased with dividends from the original share and dividends declared on both
the original share and any such additional shares, but does not reflect realized
gains or losses or unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Effective yield for
the Fund is computed by annualizing the seven-day return with all dividends
reinvested in additional Fund shares. The tax equivalent yield is computed by
first computing the yield as discussed above. Then the portion of the yield
attributable to securities the income of which was exempt for federal income tax
purposes is determined. This portion of the yield is then divided by one minus
the stated assumed federal income tax rate for individuals and then added to the
portion of the yield that is not attributable to securities, the income of which
was tax exempt.

Below is set forth historical yield information for the periods
indicated:

The historical yield information of the Fund for the period ended August
31, 1999 is as follows: 7-day current yield: 2.77%; 7-day tax equivalent yield
at 39.6% tax rate: 4.59%; 7-day effective yield: 2.80%.

Total return quotations. Historical performance information for periods
prior to the establishment of the Fund will be that of its related series of the
J.P. Morgan Funds and will be presented in accordance with applicable SEC staff
interpretations. The applicable financial information in the registration
statement for the J.P. Morgan Funds (Registration Nos. 033-54632 and 811-07340)
is incorporated herein by reference.

The historical performance information shown below may reflect
operating expenses which were lower than those of the Fund. These returns may be
higher than would have occurred if an investment had been made during the
periods indicated in the Fund.

Historical return information for the Fund's related series of the J.P.
Morgan Funds for the years ended August 31, 1999 is as follows: Average annual
total return, 1 year: 2.78%; Average annual total return, 5 years: 3.25%;
average annual total return, 10 years: 3.41%; aggregate total return, 1 year:
2.78%; aggregate total return, 5 years: 17.35%; aggregate total return, 10
years: 39.82%.

Aggregate total returns, reflecting the cumulative percentage change
over a measuring period, may also be calculated.

General. The Fund's performance will vary from time to time depending
upon market conditions, the composition of the Portfolio, and its operating
expenses. Consequently, any given performance quotation should not be considered
representative of the Fund's performance for any specified period in the future.
In addition, because performance will fluctuate, it may not provide a basis for
comparing an investment in the Fund with certain bank deposits or other
investments that pay a fixed yield or return for a stated period of time.

Comparative performance information may be used from time to time in
advertising the Fund's shares, including appropriate market indices or data from
Lipper Analytical Services, Inc., Micropal, Inc., Ibbotson Associates,
Morningstar Inc., the Dow Jones Industrial Average and other industry
publications.

From time to time, the Fund may, in addition to any other permissible
information, include the following types of information in advertisements,
supplemental sales literature and reports to shareholders: (1) discussions of
general economic or financial principles (such as the effects of compounding and
the benefits of dollar-cost averaging); (2) discussions of general economic
trends; (3) presentations of statistical data to supplement such discussions;
(4) descriptions of past or anticipated portfolio holdings for the Fund; (5)
descriptions of investment strategies for the Fund; (6) descriptions or
comparisons of various savings and investment products (including, but not
limited to, qualified retirement plans and individual stocks and bonds), which
may or may not include the Fund; (7) comparisons of investment products
(including the Fund) with relevant markets or industry indices or other
appropriate benchmarks; (8) discussions of Fund rankings or ratings by
recognized rating organizations; and (9) discussions of various statistical
methods quantifying the Fund's volatility relative to its benchmark or to past
performance, including risk adjusted measures. The Fund may also include
calculations, such as hypothetical compounding examples, which describe
hypothetical investment results in such communications. Such performance
examples will be based on an express set of assumptions and are not indicative
of the performance of the Fund.

PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

The Advisor places orders for the Portfolio for all purchases and sales of
portfolio securities, enters into repurchase agreements, and may enter into
reverse repurchase agreements and execute loans of portfolio securities on
behalf of the Portfolio. See "Investment Objectives and Policies."

Fixed income and debt securities and municipal bonds and notes are
generally traded at a net price with dealers acting as principal for their own
accounts without a stated commission. The price of the security usually includes
profit to the dealers. In underwritten offerings, securities are purchased at a
fixed price which includes an amount of compensation to the underwriter,
generally referred to as the underwriter's concession or discount. On occasion,
certain securities may be purchased directly from an issuer, in which case no
commissions or discounts are paid.

Portfolio transactions for the Portfolio will be undertaken principally
to accomplish the Portfolio's objective in relation to expected movements in the
general level of interest rates. The Portfolio may engage in short-term trading
consistent with its objective. See "Investment Objective and Policies --
Portfolio Turnover." The Portfolio will not seek profits through short-term
trading, but the Portfolio may dispose of any portfolio security prior to its
maturity if it believes such disposition is appropriate even if this action
realizes profits or losses.

In connection with portfolio transactions for the Portfolio, the
Advisor intends to seek the best price and execution on a competitive basis for
both purchases and sales of securities.

The Portfolio has a policy of investing only in securities with
maturities of not more than thirteen months, which will result in high portfolio
turnover. Since brokerage commissions are not normally paid on investments which
the Portfolio makes, turnover resulting from such investments should not
adversely affect the net asset value or net income of the Portfolio.

Subject to the overriding objective of obtaining best execution of
orders, the Advisor may allocate a portion of the Portfolio's brokerage
transactions to affiliates of the Advisor. In order for affiliates of the
Advisor to effect any portfolio transactions for the Portfolio, the commissions,
fees or other remuneration received by such affiliates must be reasonable and
fair compared to the commissions, fees, or other remuneration paid to other
brokers in connection with comparable transactions involving similar securities
being purchased or sold on a securities exchange during a comparable period of
time. Furthermore, the Trustees of the Portfolio, including a majority of the
Trustees who are not "interested persons," have adopted procedures which are
reasonably designed to provide that any commissions, fees, or other remuneration
paid to such affiliates are consistent with the foregoing standard.

Portfolio securities will not be purchased from or through or sold to
or through the Co-Administrator, the Distributor or the Advisor or any other
"affiliated person" (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Co-Administrator,
Distributor or Advisor when such entities are acting as principals, except to
the extent permitted by law. In addition, the Portfolio will not purchase
securities during the existence of any underwriting group relating thereto of
which the Advisor or an affiliate of the Advisor is a member, except to the
extent permitted by law.

On those occasions when the Advisor deems the purchase or sale of a
security to be in the best interests of the Portfolio as well as other customers
including other Portfolios, the Advisor to the extent permitted by applicable
laws and regulations, may, but is not obligated to, aggregate the securities to
be sold or purchased for the Portfolio with those to be sold or purchased for
other customers in order to obtain best execution, including lower brokerage
commissions if appropriate. In such event, allocation of the securities so
purchased or sold as well as any expenses incurred in the transaction will be
made by the Advisor in the manner it considers to be most equitable and
consistent with its fiduciary obligations to the Portfolio. In some instances,
this procedure might adversely affect the Portfolio.

MASSACHUSETTS TRUST

The Trust is a trust fund of the type commonly known as a
"Massachusetts business trust" of which the Fund is a separate and distinct
series. A copy of the Declaration of Trust for the Trust is on file in the
office of the Secretary of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Declaration of
Trust and the By-Laws of the Trust are designed to make the Trust similar in
most respects to a Massachusetts business corporation. The principal distinction
between the two forms concerns shareholder liability described below.

Effective January 1, 1998, the name of the Trust was changed from "The
JPM Institutional Funds" to "J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds," and the Fund's
name changed accordingly.

Under Massachusetts law, shareholders of such a trust may, under
certain circumstances, be held personally liable as partners for the obligations
of the trust which is not the case for a corporation. However, the Trust's
Declaration of Trust provides that the shareholders shall not be subject to any
personal liability for the acts or obligations of the Fund and that every
written agreement, obligation, instrument or undertaking made on behalf of the
Fund shall contain a provision to the effect that the shareholders are not
personally liable thereunder.

No personal liability will attach to the shareholders under any
undertaking containing such provision when adequate notice of such provision is
given, except possibly in a few jurisdictions. With respect to all types of
claims in the latter jurisdictions, (i) tort claims, (ii) contract claims where
the provision referred to is omitted from the undertaking, (iii) claims for
taxes, and (iv) certain statutory liabilities in other jurisdictions, a
shareholder may be held personally liable to the extent that claims are not
satisfied by the Fund. However, upon payment of such liability, the shareholder
will be entitled to reimbursement from the general assets of the Fund. The
Trustees intend to conduct the operations of the Trust in such a way so as to
avoid, as far as possible, ultimate liability of the shareholders for
liabilities of the Fund.

The Trust's Declaration of Trust further provides that the name of the
Trust refers to the Trustees collectively as Trustees, not as individuals or
personally, that no Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Fund is liable to
the Fund or to a shareholder, and that no Trustee, officer, employee, or agent
is liable to any third persons in connection with the affairs of the Fund,
except as such liability may arise from his or its own bad faith, willful
misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of his or its duties to such
third persons. It also provides that all third persons shall look solely to Fund
property for satisfaction of claims arising in connection with the affairs of
the Fund. With the exceptions stated, the Trust's Declaration of Trust provides
that a Trustee, officer, employee, or agent is entitled to be indemnified
against all liability in connection with the affairs of the Fund.

<PAGE>

DESCRIPTION OF SHARES

The Trust is an open-end management investment company organized as a
Massachusetts business trust in which the Fund represents a separate series of
shares of beneficial interest. See "Massachusetts Trust."

The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited
number of full and fractional shares ($0.001 par value) of one or more series
and classes within any series and to divide or combine the shares (of any
series, if applicable) without changing the proportionate beneficial interest of
each shareholder in the Fund (or in the assets of other series, if applicable).
Each share represents an equal proportional interest in the Fund with each other
share. Upon liquidation of the Fund, holders are entitled to share pro rata in
the net assets of the Fund available for distribution to such shareholders. See
"Massachusetts Trust." Shares of the Fund have no preemptive or conversion
rights and are fully paid and nonassessable. The rights of redemption and
exchange are described in the Prospectus and elsewhere in this Statement of
Additional Information.

For information relating to mandatory redemption of Fund shares or
their redemption at the option of the Trust under certain circumstances, see the
Prospectus.

As of November 30, 1999, the following owned of record more than 5% of the
outstanding shares of the Fund: Hare & Co. (100.00%).

The address of each owner listed above is c/o Morgan, 522 Fifth Avenue,
New York, New York, 10036. As of the date of this Statement of Additional
Information, the officers and Trustees as a group owned less than 1% of the
shares of the Fund.

SPECIAL INFORMATION CONCERNING INVESTMENT STRUCTURE

Unlike other mutual funds which directly acquire and manage their own
portfolio of securities, the Fund is an open-end management investment company
which seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing all of its
investable assets in the Master Portfolio, a separate registered investment
company with the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. Generally,
when a Master Portfolio seeks a vote to change a fundamental investment
restriction, its feeder fund(s) will hold a shareholder meeting and cast its
vote proportionately, as instructed by its shareholders. Fund shareholders are
entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value (or a proportionate
fractional vote in respect of a fractional dollar amount), on matters on which
shares of the Fund shall be entitled to vote.

In addition to selling a beneficial interest to the Fund, the Portfolio
may sell beneficial interests to other mutual funds or institutional investors.
Such investors will invest in the Portfolio on the same terms and conditions and
will bear a proportionate share of the Portfolio's expenses. However, the other
investors investing in the Portfolio may sell shares of their own fund using a
different pricing structure than the Fund. Such different pricing structures may
result in differences in returns experienced by investors in other funds that
invest in the Portfolio. Such differences in returns are not uncommon and are
present in other mutual fund structures. Information concerning other holders of
interests in the Portfolio is available from Morgan at (800) 766-7722.

The Trust may withdraw the investment of the Fund from the Portfolio at
any time if the Board of Trustees of the Trust determines that it is in the best
interests of the Fund to do so. Upon any such withdrawal, the Board of Trustees
would consider what action might be taken, including the investment of all the
assets of the Fund in another pooled investment entity having the same
investment objective and restrictions in accordance with the investment policies
with respect to the Portfolio described above and in the Fund's prospectus.

Certain changes in the Portfolio's fundamental investment policies or
restrictions, or a failure by the Fund's shareholders to approve such change in
the Portfolio's investment restrictions, may require withdrawal of the Fund's
interest in the Portfolio. Any such withdrawal could result in a distribution in
kind of portfolio securities (as opposed to a cash distribution) from the
Portfolio which may or may not be readily marketable. The distribution in kind
may result in the Fund having a less diversified portfolio of investments or
adversely affect the Fund's liquidity, and the Fund could incur brokerage, tax
or other charges in converting the securities to cash. Notwithstanding the
above, there are other means for meeting shareholder redemption requests, such
as borrowing.

Smaller funds investing in the Portfolio may be materially affected by
the actions of larger funds investing in the Portfolio. For example, if a large
fund withdraws from the Portfolio, the remaining funds may subsequently
experience higher pro rata operating expenses, thereby producing lower returns.

Additionally, because the Portfolio would become smaller, it may become
less diversified, resulting in potentially increased portfolio risk (however,
these possibilities also exist for traditionally structured funds which have
large or institutional investors who may withdraw from a fund). Also, funds with
a greater pro rata ownership in the Portfolio could have effective voting
control of the operations of the Portfolio. Whenever the Fund is requested to
vote on matters pertaining to the Portfolio (other than a vote by the Fund to
continue the operation of the Portfolio upon the withdrawal of another investor
in the Portfolio), the Trust will hold a meeting of shareholders of the Fund and
will cast all of its votes proportionately as instructed by the Fund's
shareholders. The Trust will vote the shares held by Fund shareholders who do
not give voting instructions in the same proportion as the shares of Fund
shareholders who do give voting instructions. Shareholders of the Fund who do
not vote will have no affect on the outcome of such matters.

TAXES

The Fund intends to qualify and remain qualified as a regulated
investment company under Subchapter M of the Code. As a regulated investment
company, the Fund must, among other things, (a) derive at least 90% of its gross
income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to loans of stock and
securities, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or
foreign currency and other income (including but not limited to gains from
options, futures, and forward contracts) derived with respect to its business of
investing in such stock, securities or foreign currency; and (b) diversify its
holdings so that, at the end of each fiscal quarter of its taxable year, (i) at
least 50% of the value of the Fund's total assets is represented by cash, cash
items, U.S. Government securities, investments of other regulated investment
companies, and other securities limited, in respect of any one issuer, to an
amount not greater than 5% of the Fund's total assets, and 10% of the
outstanding voting securities of such issuer, and (ii) not more than 25% of the
value of its total assets is invested in the securities of any one issuer (other
than U.S. Government securities or securities of other regulated investment
companies). As a regulated investment company, the Fund (as opposed to its
shareholders) will not be subject to federal income taxes on the net investment
income and capital gain that it distributes to its shareholders, provided that
at least 90% of its net investment income and realized net short-term capital
gain in excess of net long-term capital loss for the taxable year is distributed
in accordance with the Code's timing requirements.

Under the Code, the Fund will be subject to a 4% excise tax on a
portion of its undistributed taxable income and capital gains if it fails to
meet certain distribution requirements by the end of the calendar year. The Fund
intends to make distributions in a timely manner and accordingly does not expect
to be subject to the excise tax.

For federal income tax purposes, dividends that are declared by the
Fund in October, November or December as of a record date in such month and
actually paid in January of the following year will be treated as if they were
paid on December 31 of the year declared. Therefore, such dividends generally
will be taxable to a shareholder in the year declared rather than the year paid.

The Fund intends to qualify to pay exempt-interest dividends to its
shareholders by having, at the close of each quarter of its taxable year, at
least 50% of the value of its total assets consist of tax exempt securities. An
exempt-interest dividend is that part of dividend distributions made by the Fund
which is properly designated as consisting of interest received by the Fund on
tax exempt securities. Shareholders will not incur any federal income tax on the
amount of exempt-interest dividends received by them from the Fund, other than
the alternative minimum tax under certain circumstances. In view of the Fund's
investment policies, it is expected that a substantial portion of all dividends
will be exempt-interest dividends, although the Fund may from time to time
realize and distribute net short-term capital gains and may invest limited
amounts in taxable securities under certain circumstances.

Distributions of net investment income and realized net short-term
capital gains in excess of net long-term capital loss (other than exempt
interest dividends) are generally taxable to shareholders of the Fund as
ordinary income whether such distributions are taken in cash or reinvested in
additional shares. Distributions to corporate shareholders of the Fund are not
eligible for the dividends received deduction. Distributions of net long-term
capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gain in excess of net short-term
capital loss) are taxable to shareholders of the Fund as long-term capital
gains, regardless of whether such distributions are taken in cash or reinvested
in additional shares and regardless of how long a shareholder has held shares in
the Fund. In general, long-term capital gain of an individual shareholder will
be subject to a 20% rate of tax.

To maintain a constant $1.00 per share net asset value, the Trustees of
the Trust may direct that the number of outstanding shares be reduced pro rata.
If this adjustment is made, it will reflect the lower market value of portfolio
securities and not realized losses. The adjustment may result in a shareholder
having more dividend income than net income in his account for a period. When
the number of outstanding shares of the Fund is reduced, the shareholder's basis
in the shares of the Fund may be adjusted to reflect the difference between
taxable income and net dividends actually distributed. This difference may be
realized as a capital loss when the shares are liquidated. Subject to certain
limited exceptions, capital losses cannot be used to offset ordinary income. See
"Net Asset Value."

Gains or losses on sales of portfolio securities will be treated as
long-term capital gains or losses if the securities have been held for more than
one year except in certain cases where, if applicable, a put option is acquired
or a call option is written thereon or straddle rules are otherwise applicable.
Other gains or losses on the sale of securities will be short-term capital gains
or losses. Gains and losses on the sale, lapse or other termination of options
on securities will be treated as gains and losses from the sale of securities.
If an option written by the Portfolio lapses or is terminated through a closing
transaction, such as a repurchase by the Portfolio of the option from its
holder, the Portfolio will realize a short-term capital gain or loss, depending
on whether the premium income is greater or less than the amount paid by the
Portfolio in the closing transaction. If securities are purchased by the
Portfolio pursuant to the exercise of a put option written by it, the Portfolio
will subtract the premium received from its cost basis in the securities
purchased.

Any gain or loss realized on the redemption or exchange of Fund shares
by a shareholder who is not a dealer in securities will be treated as long-term
capital gain or loss if the shares have been held for more than one year, and
otherwise as short-term capital gain or loss. Long-term capital gain of an
individual holder is subject to maximum tax rate of 20%. However, any loss
realized by a shareholder upon the redemption or exchange of shares in the Fund
held for six months or less will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the
extent of any long-term capital gain distributions received by the shareholder
with respect to such shares. Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors
concerning the limitations on the deductibility of capital losses. Additionally,
any loss realized on a redemption or exchange of shares of the Fund will be
disallowed to the extent the shares disposed of are replaced by securities that
are substantially identical to shares of the Fund within a period of 61 days
beginning 30 days before such disposition, such as pursuant to reinvestment of a
dividend in shares of the Fund.

In the case of a foreign shareholder who is a nonresident alien
individual or foreign entity, the Fund may be required to withhold U.S. federal
income tax as "backup withholding" at the rate of 31% from distributions treated
as long-term capital gains and from the proceeds of redemptions, exchanges or
other dispositions of Fund shares unless IRS Form W-8 (or any successor form) is
provided. Transfers by gift of shares of the Fund by a foreign shareholder who
is a nonresident alien individual will not be subject to U.S. federal gift tax,
but the value of shares of the Fund held by such a shareholder at his or her
death will be includible in his or her gross estate for U.S. federal estate tax
purposes.

State and Local Taxes. The Fund may be subject to state or local taxes
in jurisdictions in which the Fund is deemed to be doing business. In addition,
the treatment of the Fund and its shareholders in those states which have income
tax laws might differ from treatment under the federal income tax laws.
Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to any state or
local taxes.

Other Taxation. The Trust is organized as a Massachusetts business
trust and, under current law, neither the Trust nor the Fund is liable for any
income or franchise tax in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, provided that the
Fund continues to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M
of the Code. The Portfolio is organized as a New York trust. The Portfolio is
not subject to any federal income taxation or income or franchise tax in the
State of New York or The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The investment by the
Fund in the Portfolio does not cause the Fund to be liable for any income or
franchise tax in the State of New York.

APPENDIX A
Description of Security Ratings

STANDARD & POOR'S

Corporate and Municipal Bonds

AAA - Debt rated AAA have the highest ratings assigned by Standard & Poor's to
a debt obligation. Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is
extremely strong.

AA - Debt rated AA have a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal and differ from the highest rated issues only in a small degree.

A - Debt rated A have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal
although they are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of
changes in circumstances and economic conditions than debt in higher rated
categories.

BBB - Debt rated BBB are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay
interest and repay principal. Whereas it normally exhibit adequate
protection parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing
circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay
interest and repay principal for debt in this category than for debt in
higher rated categories.

Commercial Paper, including Tax Exempt

A-1 - This designation indicates that the degree of safety regarding timely
payment is very strong.

Short-Term Tax-Exempt Notes

SP-2 - The short-term tax-exempt note rating of SP-2 has a satisfactory capacity
to pay principal and interest.

<PAGE>

MOODY'S

Corporate and Municipal Bonds

Aaa - Bonds which are rated Aaa are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to
as "gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large or by an
exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure. While the various
protective elements are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized
are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of such
issues.

Aa - Bonds which are rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by all
standards. Together with the Aaa group they comprise what are generally
known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds because
margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa securities or
fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or there may
be other elements present which make the long term risks appear somewhat
larger than in Aaa securities.

Baa - Bonds which are rated Baa are considered as medium grade obligations,
i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest
payments and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain
protective elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable
over any great length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment
characteristics and in fact have speculative characteristics as well.
Commercial Paper, including Tax Exempt

Prime-1 - Issuers rated Prime-1 (or related supporting institutions)
have a superior capacity for repayment of short-term
promissory obligations. Prime-1 repayment capacity will
normally be evidenced by the following characteristics:

Short-Term Tax Exempt Notes

MIG-2 - MIG-2 rated notes are of high quality but with margins of protection not
as large as MIG-1.

- --------
1Pursuant to an interpretation of the staff of the SEC, the Fund may
not invest more than 25% of its assets in industrial development bonds
in projects of similar type or in the same state. The Fund shall comply
with this interpretation until such time as it may be modified by the
staff of the SEC. 2For purposes of interpretation of Investment
Restriction No. 4 "guaranteed by another entity" includes credit
substitutions, such as letters of credit or insurance, unless the
Advisor determines that the security meets the Fund's credit standards
without regard to the credit substitution.

3Mr. Healey is an "interested person" (as defined in the 1940 Act) of
the Trust. Mr. Healey is also an "interested person" (as defined in the
1940 Act) of the Advisor due to his son's affiliation with JPMIM.

GENERAL

This Statement of Additional Information relates only to the J.P.
Morgan Institutional Service Prime Money Market Fund, the J.P. Morgan
Institutional Service Treasury Money Market Fund and the J.P. Morgan
Institutional Service Federal Money Market Fund (each, a "Fund" and
collectively, the "Funds"). Each Fund is a series of shares of beneficial
interest of the J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds, an open-end management
investment company formed as a Massachusetts business trust (the "Trust"). In
addition to the Funds, the Trust consists of other series representing separate
investment funds (each a "J.P. Morgan Institutional Fund"). The other J.P.
Morgan Institutional Funds are covered by separate Statements of Additional
Information.

Each Portfolio is advised by J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc.
("JPMIM" or the "Advisor").

Investments in a Fund are not deposits or obligations of, or guaranteed
or endorsed by, Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York, ("Morgan"), an
affiliate of the Advisor, or any other bank. Shares of a Fund are not federally
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board,
or any other governmental agency. An investment in a Fund is subject to risk
that may cause the value of the investment to fluctuate, and when the investment
is redeemed, the value may be higher or lower than the amount originally
invested by the investor.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

J.P. Morgan Institutional Service Prime Money Market Fund (the "Prime
Money Market Fund") is designed for investors who seek high current income
consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity from a
portfolio of high quality money market instruments. The Prime Money Market
Fund's investment objective is to maximize current income consistent with the
preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. The Prime Money Market Fund
attempts to achieve this objective by investing all of its investable assets in
The Prime Money Market Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a diversified open-end
management investment company having the same investment objective as the Prime
Money Market Fund.

J.P. Morgan Institutional Service Treasury Money Market Fund (the
"Treasury Money Market Fund") is designed for investors who seek high current
income consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity from a
portfolio of high quality money market instruments. The Treasury Money Market
Fund's investment objective is to provide current income, consistent with the
preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. The Treasury Money Market Fund
attempts to accomplish this objective by investing all of its investable assets
in The Treasury Money Market Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a diversified open-end
management investment company having the same investment objective as the
Treasury Money Market Fund.

J.P. Morgan Institutional Service Federal Money Market Fund (the
"Federal Money Market Fund") is designed for investors who seek high current
income consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity from a
portfolio of high quality money market instruments. The Federal Money Market
Fund's investment objective is to provide current income, consistent with the
preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. The Federal Money Market Fund
attempts to accomplish this objective by investing all of its investable assets
in The Federal Money Market Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a diversified open-end
management investment company having the same investment objective as the
Federal Money Market Fund.

The Portfolio attempts to achieve its investment objective by
maintaining a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of not more than 90
days and by investing in U.S. Treasury securities and in obligations of certain
U.S. Government agencies, as described in this Statement of Additional
Information that have effective maturities of not more than thirteen months. See
"Quality and Diversification Requirements."

Money Market Instruments

A description of the various types of money market instruments that may be
purchased by the Funds appears below. Also see "Quality and Diversification
Requirements."

Bank Obligations. The Prime Money Market Fund, unless otherwise noted
in the Prospectus or below, may invest in negotiable certificates of deposit,
time deposits and bankers' acceptances of (i) banks, savings and loan
associations and savings banks which have more than $2 billion in total assets
and are organized under the laws of the United States or any state, (ii) foreign
branches of these banks or of foreign banks of equivalent size (Euros) and (iii)
U.S. branches of foreign banks of equivalent size (Yankees). The Prime Money
Market Fund will not invest in obligations for which the Advisor, or any of its
affiliated persons, is the ultimate obligor or accepting bank. The Prime Money
Market Fund may also invest in obligations of international banking institutions
designated or supported by national governments to promote economic
reconstruction, development or trade between nations (e.g., the European
Investment Bank, the Inter-American Development Bank, or the World Bank).

Asset-backed Securities. The Prime Money Market Fund may also invest in
securities generally referred to as asset-backed securities, which directly or
indirectly represent a participation interest in, or are secured by and payable
from, a stream of payments generated by particular assets, such as motor vehicle
or credit card receivables or other asset-backed securities collateralized by
such assets. Asset-backed securities provide periodic payments that generally
consist of both interest and principle payments. Consequently, the life of an
asset-backed security varies with the prepayment experience of the underlying
obligations. Payments of principal and interest may be guaranteed up to certain
amounts and for a certain time period by a letter of credit issued by a
financial institution unaffiliated with the entities issuing the securities. The
asset-backed securities in which a Fund may invest are subject to the Fund's
overall credit requirements. However, asset-backed securities, in general, are
subject to certain risks. Most of these risks are related to limited interests
in applicable collateral. For example, credit card debt receivables are
generally unsecured and the debtors are entitled to the protection of a number
of state and federal consumer credit laws, many of which give such debtors the
right to set off certain amounts on credit card debt thereby reducing the
balance due. Additionally, if the letter of credit is exhausted, holders of
asset-backed securities may also experience delays in payments or losses if the
full amounts due on underlying sales contracts are not realized. Because
asset-backed securities are relatively new, the market experience in these
securities is limited and the market's ability to sustain liquidity through all
phases of the market cycle has not been tested.

Repurchase Agreements. Each of the Funds may enter into repurchase
agreements with brokers, dealers or banks that meet the credit guidelines
approved by the Funds' Trustees. In a repurchase agreement, a Fund buys a
security from a seller that has agreed to repurchase the same security at a
mutually agreed upon date and price. The resale price normally is in excess of
the purchase price, reflecting an agreed upon interest rate. This interest rate
is effective for the period of time the Fund is invested in the agreement and is
not related to the coupon rate on the underlying security. A repurchase
agreement may also be viewed as a fully collateralized loan of money by a Fund
to the seller. The period of these repurchase agreements will usually be short,
from overnight to one week, and at no time will any Fund invest in repurchase
agreements for more than thirteen months. The securities which are subject to
repurchase agreements, however, may have maturity dates in excess of thirteen
months from the effective date of the repurchase agreement. The Treasury Money
Market Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements involving U.S. Treasury
securities. The Federal Money Market Fund may only enter into repurchase
agreements involving U.S. Treasury securities and Permitted Agency Securities.
The Funds will always receive securities as collateral whose market value is,
and during the entire term of the agreement remains, at least equal to 100% of
the dollar amount invested by the Funds in each agreement plus accrued interest,
and the Funds will make payment for such securities only upon physical delivery
or upon evidence of book entry transfer to the account of the Custodian. Each
Fund will be fully collateralized within the meaning of paragraph (a)(4) of Rule
2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). If
the seller defaults, a Fund might incur a loss if the value of the collateral
securing the repurchase agreement declines and might incur disposition costs in
connection with liquidating the collateral. In addition, if bankruptcy
proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller of the security,
realization upon disposal of the collateral by a Fund may be delayed or limited.

The Prime Money Market Fund may make investments in other debt
securities with remaining effective maturities of not more than thirteen months,
including, without limitation, corporate and foreign bonds and other obligations
described in the Prospectus or this Statement of Additional Information.

Foreign Investments

Additional Investments

Municipal Bonds. The Prime Money Market Fund may invest in municipal
bonds issued by or on behalf of states, territories and possessions of the
United States and the District of Columbia and their Political subdivisions,
agencies, authorities and instrumentalities. The Prime Money Market Fund may
also invest in municipal notes of various types, including notes issued in
anticipation of receipt of taxes, the proceeds of the sale of bonds, other
revenues or grant proceeds, as well as municipal commercial paper and municipal
demand obligations such as variable rate demand notes and master demand
obligations. These municipal bonds and notes will be taxable securities; income
generated from these investments will be subject to federal, state and local
taxes.

Loans of Portfolio Securities. Subject to applicable investment
restrictions, each Fund is permitted to lend its securities in an amount up to
33 1/3% of the value of the Fund's net assets. Each of the Funds may lend its
securities if such loans are secured continuously by cash or equivalent
collateral or by a letter of credit in favor of the Fund at least equal at all
times to 100% of the market value of the securities loaned, plus accrued
interest. While such securities are on loan, the borrower will pay the Fund any
income accruing thereon. Loans will be subject to termination by the Funds in
the normal settlement time, generally three business days after notice, or by
the borrower on one day's notice. Borrowed securities must be returned when the
loan is terminated. Any gain or loss in the market price of the borrowed
securities which occurs during the term of the loan inures to a Fund and its
respective investors. The Funds may pay reasonable finders' and custodial fees
in connection with a loan. In addition, a Fund will consider all facts and
circumstances including the creditworthiness of the borrowing financial
institution, and no Fund will make any loans in excess of one year. The risks to
each Fund with respect to borrowers of its portfolio securities are similar to
the risks to the Funds with respect to sellers in repurchase agreement
transactions. See "Repurchase Agreements". The Funds will not lend their
securities to any officer, Trustee, Director, employee or other affiliate of the
Funds, the Advisor or the Distributor, unless otherwise permitted by applicable
law.

Illiquid Investments, Privately Placed and Certain Unregistered
Securities. The Funds, except the Treasury Money Market Fund, may invest in
privately placed, restricted, Rule 144A or other unregistered securities. No
Fund may acquire any illiquid holdings if, as a result thereof, more than 10% of
a Funds' net assets would be in illiquid investments. Subject to this
fundamental policy limitation (Prime Money Market Fund only), the Portfolios may
acquire investments that are illiquid or have limited liquidity, such as private
placements or investments that are not registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") and cannot be offered for public sale in the
United States without first being registered under the 1933 Act. An illiquid
investment is any investment that cannot be disposed of within seven days in the
normal course of business at approximately the amount at which it is valued by
the Portfolios. The price the Portfolios pay for illiquid securities or receives
upon resale may be lower than the price paid or received for similar securities
with a more liquid market. Accordingly the valuation of these securities will
reflect any limitations on their liquidity.

The Funds may also purchase Rule 144A securities sold to institutional
investors without registration under the 1933 Act. These securities may be
determined to be liquid in accordance with guidelines established by the Advisor
and approved by the Trustees. The Trustees will monitor the Advisor's
implementation of these guidelines on a periodic basis.

Quality and Diversification Requirements

Each of the Funds intends to meet the diversification requirements of
the 1940 Act. Current 1940 Act requirements require that with respect to 75% of
the assets of each Fund are subject to the following fundamental limitations:
(1) the Fund may not invest more than 5% of its total assets in the securities
of any one issuer, except obligations of the U.S. Government, its agencies and
instrumentalities, and (2) the Fund may not own more than 10% of the outstanding
voting securities of any one issuer. As for the other 25% of the Fund's assets
not subject to the limitation described above, there is no limitation on
investment of these assets under the 1940 Act, so that all of such assets may be
invested in securities of any one issuer. Investments not subject to the
limitations described above could involve an increased risk to a Fund should an
issuer, or a state or its related entities, be unable to make interest or
principal payments or should the market value of such securities decline.

At the time any of the Funds invest in any taxable commercial paper,
master demand obligation, bank obligation or repurchase agreement, the issuer
must have outstanding debt rated A or higher by Moody's or Standard & Poor's,
the issuer's parent corporation, if any, must have outstanding commercial paper
rated Prime-1 by Moody's or A-1 by Standard & Poor's, or if no such ratings are
available, the investment must be of comparable quality in Morgan's opinion.

Prime Money Market Fund. In order to maintain a stable net asset value,
the Prime Money Market Fund will (i) limit its investment in the securities
(other than U.S. Government securities) of any one issuer to no more than 5% of
its assets, measured at the time of purchase, except for investments held for
not more than three business days; and (ii) limit investments to securities that
present minimal credit risks and securities (other than U.S. Government
securities) that are rated within the highest short-term rating category by at
least two nationally recognized statistical rating organizations ("NRSROs") or
by the only NRSRO that has rated the security. Securities which originally had a
maturity of over one year are subject to more complicated, but generally similar
rating requirements. A description of illustrative credit ratings is set forth
in "Appendix A." The Fund may also purchase unrated securities that are of
comparable quality to the rated securities described above. Additionally, if the
issuer of a particular security has issued other securities of comparable
priority and security and which have been rated in accordance with (ii) above,
that security will be deemed to have the same rating as such other rated
securities.

In addition, the Board of Trustees has adopted procedures which (i)
require the Board of Trustees to approve or ratify purchases by the Fund of
securities (other than U.S. Government securities) that are unrated; (ii)
require the Fund to maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of not
more than 90 days and to invest only in securities with a remaining maturity of
not more than thirteen months; and (iii) require the Fund, in the event of
certain downgradings of or defaults on portfolio holdings, to dispose of the
holding, subject in certain circumstances to a finding by the Trustees that
disposing of the holding would not be in the Fund's best interest.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

The investment restrictions below have been adopted by the Trust with
respect to each Fund and, except as noted, by each corresponding Portfolio.
Except where otherwise noted, these investment restrictions are "fundamental"
policies which, under the 1940 Act, may not be changed without the vote of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund or Portfolio, as the
case may be. A "majority of the outstanding voting securities" is defined in the
1940 Act as the lesser of (a) 67% or more of the voting securities present at a
meeting if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities are
present or represented by proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding voting
securities. The percentage limitations contained in the restrictions below apply
at the time of the purchase of securities. Whenever a Fund is requested to vote
on a change in the fundamental investment restrictions of its corresponding
Portfolio, the Trust will hold a meeting of Fund shareholders and will cast its
votes as instructed by the Fund's shareholders.

The Treasury Money Market Fund and its corresponding portfolio:

1. May not make any investment inconsistent with the Fund's classification as a
diversified investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

2. May not purchase any security which would cause the Fund to concentrate its
investments in the securities of issuers primarily engaged in any particular
industry except as permitted by the SEC;

3. May not issue senior securities, except as permitted under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 or any rule, order or interpretation thereunder;

4. May not borrow money, except to the extent permitted by applicable law;

5. May not underwrite securities of other issuers, except to the extent that the
Fund, in disposing of portfolio securities, may be deemed an underwriter within
the meaning of the 1933 Act;

6. May not purchase or sell real estate, except that, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, the Fund may (a) invest in securities or other instruments
directly or indirectly secured by real estate, (b) invest in securities or other
instruments issued by issuers that invest in real estate;

8. May make loans to other persons, in accordance with the Fund's investment
objective and policies and to the extent permitted by applicable law.

The Prime Money Market Fund may not:

1. Acquire any illiquid securities, such as repurchase agreements with more than
seven days to maturity or fixed time deposits with a duration of over seven
calendar days, if as a result thereof, more than 10% of the Fund's net assets
would be in investments which are illiquid;

2. Enter into reverse repurchase agreements exceeding in the aggregate one-third
of the market value of the Fund's total assets, less liabilities other than
obligations created by reverse repurchase agreements;

3. Borrow money, except from banks for extraordinary or emergency purposes and
then only in amounts not to exceed 10% of the value of the Fund's total assets,
taken at cost, at the time of such borrowing. Mortgage, pledge, or hypothecate
any assets except in connection with any such borrowing and in amounts not to
exceed 10% of the value of the Fund's net assets at the time of such borrowing.
The Fund will not purchase securities while borrowings exceed 5% of the Fund's
total assets; provided, however, that the Fund may increase its interest in an
open-end management investment company with the same investment objective and
restrictions as the Fund while such borrowings are outstanding. This borrowing
provision is included to facilitate the orderly sale of portfolio securities,
for example, in the event of abnormally heavy redemption requests, and is not
for investment purposes and shall not apply to reverse repurchase agreements;

5. Purchase the securities or other obligations of issuers conducting their
principal business activity in the same industry if, immediately after such
purchase, the value of its investment in such industry would exceed 25% of the
value of the Fund's total assets; provided, however, that the Fund may invest
all or part of its investable assets in an open-end management investment
company with the same investment objective and restrictions as the Fund. For
purposes of industry concentration, there is no percentage limitation with
respect to investments in U.S. Government securities, negotiable certificates of
deposit, time deposits, and bankers' acceptances of U.S. branches of U.S. banks;

6. Make loans, except through purchasing or holding debt obligations, or
entering into repurchase agreements, or loans of portfolio securities in
accordance with the Fund's investment objective and policies (see "Investment
Objectives and Policies");

7. Purchase or sell puts, calls, straddles, spreads, or any combination thereof,
real estate, commodities, or commodity contracts or interests in oil, gas, or
mineral exploration or development programs. However, the Fund may purchase
bonds or commercial paper issued by companies which invest in real estate or
interests therein including real estate investment trusts;

8. Purchase securities on margin, make short sales of securities, or maintain a
short position, provided that this restriction shall not be deemed to be
applicable to the purchase or sale of when-issued securities or of securities
for delivery at a future date;

9. Acquire securities of other investment companies, except as permitted by the
1940 Act;

10. Act as an underwriter of securities; or

11. Issue senior securities, except as may otherwise be permitted by the
foregoing investment restrictions or under the 1940 Act or any rule, order or
interpretation thereunder.

The Prime Money Market Portfolio, except as noted below, has adopted
substantially similar fundamental investment restrictions. Investment
restrictions numbered 8 and 9 above are non-fundamental for the Portfolio. The
Portfolio's fundamental borrowing restriction allows the Portfolio to borrow to
the extent permitted by law, currently 33-1/3% of total assets. The Portfolio,
however, has adopted a non-fundamental investment restriction limiting its
borrowing ability to 10% of total assets.
These differences are not expected to materially affect the management of the
Portfolio.

The Federal Money Market Fund may not:

1. Enter into reverse repurchase agreements which together with any other
borrowing exceeds in the aggregate one-third of the market value of the Fund's
or the Portfolio's total assets, less liabilities other than the obligations
created by reverse repurchase agreements;

2. Borrow money (not including reverse repurchase agreements), except from banks
for temporary or extraordinary or emergency purposes and then only in amounts up
to 10% of the value of the Fund's or the Portfolio's total assets, taken at cost
at the time of such borrowing (and provided that such borrowings and reverse
repurchase agreements do not exceed in the aggregate one-third of the market
value of the Fund's and the Portfolio's total assets less liabilities other than
the obligations represented by the bank borrowings and reverse repurchase
agreements). Mortgage, pledge, or hypothecate any assets except in connection
with any such borrowing and in amounts up to 10% of the value of the Fund's or
the Portfolio's net assets at the time of such borrowing. The Fund or the
Portfolio will not purchase securities while borrowings exceed 5% of the Fund's
or the Portfolio's total assets, respectively; provided, however, that the Fund
may increase its interest in an open-end management investment company with the
same investment objective and restrictions as the Fund while such borrowings are
outstanding. This borrowing provision is included to facilitate the orderly sale
of portfolio securities, for example, in the event of abnormally heavy
redemption requests, and is not for investment purposes;

9. Act as an underwriter of securities; or

10. Issue senior securities, except as may otherwise be permitted by the
foregoing investment restrictions or under the 1940 Act or any rule, order or
interpretation thereunder.

The Federal Money Market Portfolio, except as noted below, has adopted
substantially similar fundamental investment restrictions. Investment
restrictions numbered 7 and 8 above are non-fundamental for the Portfolio. The
Portfolio's fundamental borrowing restriction allows the Portfolio to borrow to
the extent permitted by law, currently 33-1/3% of total assets. The Portfolio,
however, has adopted a non-fundamental investment restriction limiting its
borrowing ability to 10% of total assets.
These differences are note expected to materially affect the management of the

equal and sole shareholders of Pierpont Group, Inc. The Trust and the Portfolios
have agreed to pay Pierpont Group, Inc. a fee in an amount representing its
reasonable costs in performing these services to the Trust, the Portfolios and
certain other registered investment companies subject to similar agreements with
Pierpont Group, Inc. These costs are periodically reviewed by the Trustees. The
principal offices of Pierpont Group, Inc. are located at 461 Fifth Avenue, New

SERVICES AGENT

The Trust, on behalf of each Fund, and the Portfolios have entered into
Administrative Services Agreements (the "Services Agreements") with Morgan
pursuant to which Morgan is responsible for certain administrative and related
services provided to each Fund and its corresponding Portfolio. The Services
Agreements may be terminated at any time, without penalty, by the Trustees or
Morgan, in each case on not more than 60 days' nor less than 30 days' written
notice to the other party.

Under the Services Agreements, each of the Funds and the Portfolios has
agreed to pay Morgan fees equal to its allocable share of an annual complex-wide
charge. This charge is calculated daily based on the aggregate net assets of the
Master Portfolios and J.P. Morgan Series Trust in accordance with the following
annual schedule: 0.09% of the first $7 billion of their aggregate average daily
net assets and 0.04% of their aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $7
billion, less the complex-wide fees payable to FDI. The portion of this charge
payable by each Fund and Portfolio is determined by the proportionate share that
its net assets bear to the total net assets of the Trust, the Master Portfolios,
the other investors in the Master Portfolios for which Morgan provides similar
services and J.P. Morgan Series Trust.

The table below sets forth for each Fund listed and its corresponding
Portfolio the fees paid to Morgan as Services Agent. See the Prospectus and
below for applicable expense limitations.

CUSTODIAN AND TRANSFER AGENT

SHAREHOLDER SERVICING

The Trust on behalf of each of the Funds has entered into a Shareholder
Servicing Agreement with Morgan pursuant to which Morgan acts as shareholder
servicing agent for its customers and for other Fund investors who are customers
of a Service Organization. Under this agreement, Morgan is responsible for
performing shareholder account, administrative and servicing functions, which
include but are not limited to, answering inquiries regarding account status and
history, the manner in which purchases and redemptions of Fund shares may be
effected, and certain other matters pertaining to a Fund; assisting customers in
designating and changing dividend options, account designations and addresses;
providing necessary personnel and facilities to coordinate the establishment and
maintenance of shareholder accounts and records with the Funds' transfer agent;
transmitting purchase and redemption orders to the Funds' transfer agent and
arranging for the wiring or other transfer of funds to and from customer
accounts in connection with orders to purchase or redeem Fund shares; verifying
purchase and redemption orders, transfers among and changes in accounts;
informing the Distributor of the gross amount of purchase orders for Fund
shares; monitoring the activities of the Funds' transfer agent; and providing
other related services.

Under the Shareholder Servicing Agreement, each Fund has agreed to pay
Morgan for these services a fee at the annual rate (expressed as a percentage of
the average daily net asset values of Fund shares owned by or for shareholders
for whom Morgan is acting as shareholder servicing agent) of 0.05%. Morgan acts
as shareholder servicing agent for all shareholders.

The table below sets forth for each Fund the shareholder servicing fees
paid by each Fund to Morgan for the fiscal periods indicated. See the Prospectus
and below for applicable expense limitations.

Prime Money Market Fund -- For the period October 23, 1997 (commencement of
operations) through November 30, 1997 and for the fiscal year ended October 31,
1998: $60 and $164,079, respectively.

Treasury Money Market Fund -- For the period July 7, 1997 (commencement of
operations) through October 31, 1997 and for the fiscal year ended October 31,
1998: $25,501 and $180,336, respectively.

Federal Money Market Fund -- For the period November 5, 1997 (commencement of
operations) through October 31, 1998: $5,626.

As discussed under "Investment Advisor," the Glass-Steagall Act and
other applicable laws and regulations limit the activities of bank holding
companies and certain of their subsidiaries in connection with registered
open-end investment companies. The activities of Morgan in acting as shareholder
servicing agent for Fund shareholders under the Shareholder Servicing Agreement
and providing administrative services to the Funds and the Portfolios under the
Services Agreements, and the activities of JPMIM in acting as Advisor to the
Portfolios under the Investment Advisory Agreements, may raise issues under
these laws. However, JPMIM and Morgan believe that they may properly perform
these services and the other activities described in the Prospectus without
violation of the Glass-Steagall Act or other applicable banking laws or
regulations.

SERVICE ORGANIZATION

The Trust, on behalf of each Fund, has adopted a service plan (the
"Plan") with respect to the shares which authorizes the Funds to compensate
Service Organizations for providing certain account administration and other
services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. Pursuant
to the Plan, the Trust, on behalf of each Fund, enters into agreements with
Service Organizations which purchase shares on behalf of their customers
("Service Agreements"). Under such Service Agreements, the Service Organizations
may: (a) act, directly or through an agent, as the sole shareholder of record
and nominee for all customers, (b) maintain or assist in maintaining account
records for each customer who beneficially owns shares, and (c) process or
assist in processing customer orders to purchase, redeem and exchange shares,
and handle or assist in handling the transmission of funds representing the
customers' purchase price or redemption proceeds. As compensation for such
services, the Trust on behalf of each Fund pays each Service Organization a
service fee in an amount up to 0.25% (on an annualized basis) of the average
daily net assets of the shares of each Fund attributable to or held in the name
of such Service Organization for its customers (0.20% where J.P.
Morgan acts as a service organization).

The Trustees of the Trust, including a majority of Trustees who are not
interested persons of the Trust and who have no direct or indirect financial
interest in the operation of such Plan or the related Service Agreements,
initially voted to approve the Plan and Service Agreements at a meeting called
for the purpose of voting on such Plan and Service Agreements on April 9, 1997.
The Plan was approved by the initial shareholders of each Fund on June 3, 1997,
remains in effect until July 10, 1998 and will continue in effect thereafter
only if such continuance is specifically approved annually by a vote of the
Trustees in the manner described above. The Plan may not be amended to increase
materially the amount to be spent for the services described therein without
approval of the shareholders of the affected Fund, and all material amendments
of the Plan must also be approved by the Trustees in the manner described above.
The Plan may be terminated at any time by a majority of the Trustees as
described above or by vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the
affected Fund. The Service Agreements may be terminated at any time, without
payment of any penalty, by vote of a majority of the disinterested Trustees as
described above or by a vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the
affected Fund on not more than 60 days' written notice to any other party to the
Service Agreements. The Service Agreements shall terminate automatically if
assigned. So long as the Plans are in effect, the selection and nomination of
those Trustees who are not interested persons shall be determined by the
non-interested members of the Board of Trustees. The Trustees have determined
that, in their judgment, there is a reasonable likelihood that the Plan will
benefit the Funds and Fund shareholders. In the Trustees' quarterly review of
the Plan and Service Agreements, they will consider their continued
appropriateness and the level of compensation provided therein.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

EXPENSES

In addition to the fees payable to Pierpont Group, Inc., JPMIM, Morgan,
FDI and Service Organizations under various agreements discussed under "Trustees
and Officers," "Investment Advisor," "Co-Administrator", "Distributor,"
"Services Agent" and "Shareholder Servicing" above, the Funds and the Portfolios
are responsible for usual and customary expenses associated with their
respective operations. Such expenses include organization expenses, legal fees,
accounting and audit expenses, insurance costs, the compensation and expenses of
the Trustees, costs associated with their registration fees under federal
securities laws, and extraordinary expenses applicable to the Funds or the
Portfolios. For the Funds, such expenses also include transfer, registrar and

and proxy statements to Fund shareholders, and filing fees under state
securities laws. For the Portfolios, such expenses also include custodian fees.
For additional information regarding waivers or expense subsidies, see the
Prospectus.

J.P. Morgan has agreed that it will reimburse the Funds noted below
until further notice to the extent necessary to maintain the Fund's total
operating expenses (which include expenses of the Fund and the Portfolio) at the
following annual rates of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Prime Money Market Fund: 0.45%
Treasury Money Market Fund: 0.45%

These limits do not cover extraordinary expenses. These
reimbursements/waiver arrangements will continue through at least February 28,

PURCHASE OF SHARES

Shares may be purchased for accounts held in the name of a Service
Organization that provides certain account administration and other services to
its customers, including acting directly or through an agent as the sole
shareholder of record, maintenance or assistance in maintaining account records
and processing orders to purchase, redeem and exchange shares. Shares of each
Fund bear the cost of service fees at the annual rate of up to 0.25% of 1% of
the average daily net assets of such shares.

It is possible that an institution or its affiliate may offer shares of
different funds which invest in the same Portfolio to its customers and thus
receive different compensation with respect to different funds. Certain aspects
of the shares may be altered, after advance notice to shareholders, if it is
deemed necessary in order to satisfy certain tax regulatory requirements.

REDEMPTION OF SHARES

EXCHANGE OF SHARES

An investor may exchange shares from any Fund into shares of any other
J.P. Morgan Institutional or J.P. Morgan mutual fund, without charge. An
exchange may be made so long as after the exchange the investor has shares, in
each fund in which he or she remains an investor, with a value of at least that
fund's minimum investment amount. Shareholders should read the prospectus of the
fund into which they are exchanging and may only exchange between fund accounts
that are registered in the same name, address and taxpayer identification
number. Shares are exchanged on the basis of relative net asset value per share.
Exchanges are in effect redemptions from one fund and purchases of another fund
and the usual purchase and redemption procedures and requirements are applicable
to exchanges. Each Fund generally intends to pay redemption proceeds in cash,
however, since it reserves the right at its sole discretion to pay redemptions
over $250,000 in-kind as a portfolio of representative securities rather than in
cash, the Fund reserves the right to deny an exchange request in excess of that
amount. See "Redemption of Shares". Shareholders subject to federal income tax
who exchange shares in one fund for shares in another fund may recognize capital
gain or loss for federal income tax purposes. Shares of the Fund to be acquired
are purchased for settlement when the proceeds from redemption become available.
The Trust reserves the right to discontinue, alter or limit the exchange
privilege at any time.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Each Fund declares and pays dividends and distributions as described in
the Prospectus.

SPECIAL INFORMATION CONCERNING INVESTMENT STRUCTURE

TAXES

Each Fund intends to qualify and remain qualified as a regulated
investment company under Subchapter M of the Code. As a regulated investment
company, a Fund must, among other things, (a) derive at least 90% of its gross
income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to loans of stock and
securities, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or
foreign currency and other income (including but not limited to gains from
options, futures, and forward contracts) derived with respect to its business of
investing in such stock, securities or foreign currency; and (b) diversify its
holdings so that, at the end of each fiscal quarter of its taxable year, (i) at
least 50% of the value of the Fund's total assets is represented by cash, cash
items, U.S. Government securities, investments of other regulated investment
companies, and other securities limited, in respect of any one issuer, to an
amount not greater than 5% of the Fund's total assets, and 10% of the
outstanding voting securities of such issuer, and (ii) not more than 25% of the
value of its total assets is invested in the securities of any one issuer (other
than U.S. Government securities or securities of other regulated investment
companies). As a regulated investment company, a Fund (as opposed to its
shareholders) will not be subject to federal income taxes on the net investment
income and capital gain that it distributes to its shareholders, provided that
at least 90% of its net investment income and realized net short-term capital
gain in excess of net long-term capital loss for the taxable year is distributed
in accordance with the Code's timing requirements.

For federal income tax purposes, dividends that are declared by a Fund
in October, November or December as of a record date in such month and actually
paid in January of the following year will be treated as if they were paid on
December 31 of the year declared. Therefore, such dividends generally, will be
taxable to a shareholder in the year declared rather than the year paid.

Distributions of net investment income and realized net short-term
capital gains in excess of net long-term capital loss (other than exempt
interest dividends) are generally taxable to shareholders of the Funds as
ordinary income whether such distributions are taken in cash or reinvested in
additional shares. Distributions to corporate shareholders of the Funds are not
eligible for the dividends received deduction. Distributions of net long-term
capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gains in excess of net short-term
capital loss) are taxable to shareholders of a Fund as long-term capital gain,
regardless of whether such distributions are taken in cash or reinvested in
additional shares and regardless of how long a shareholder has held shares in
the Fund. In general, long-term capital gain of an individual shareholder will
be subject to a 20% rate of tax.

Gains or losses on sales of portfolio securities will be treated as
long-term capital gains or losses if the securities have been held for more than
one year except in certain cases where, if applicable a put option is acquired
or a call option is written thereon or straddle rules are otherwise applicable.
Other gains or losses on the sale of securities will be short-term capital gains
or losses. Gains and losses on the sale, lapse or other termination of options
on securities will be treated as gains and losses from the sale of securities.
If an option written by a Portfolio lapses or is terminated through a closing
transaction, such as a repurchase by the Portfolio of the option from its
holder, the Portfolio will realize a short-term capital gain or loss, depending
on whether the premium income is greater or less than the amount paid by the
Portfolio in the closing transaction. If securities are purchased by a Portfolio
pursuant to the exercise of a put option written by it, the Portfolio will
subtract the premium received from its cost basis in the securities purchased.

If a correct and certified taxpayer identification number is not on
file, the Fund is required, subject to certain exemptions, to withold 31% of
certain payments made or distributions declared to non-corporate shareholders.

APPENDIX A

Description of Security Ratings

STANDARD & POOR'S

Corporate and Municipal Bonds

AAA - Debt rated AAA have the highest ratings assigned by Standard & Poor's to
a debt obligation. Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is
extremely strong.

AA - Debt rated AA have a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal and differ from the highest rated issues only in a small degree.

A - Debt rated A have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal
although they are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of
changes in circumstances and economic conditions than debt in higher rated
categories.

BBB - Debt rated BBB are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay
interest and repay principal. Whereas they normally exhibit adequate
protection parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing
circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay
interest and repay principal for debt in this category than for debt in
higher rated categories.

Commercial Paper, including Tax Exempt

A-1 - This designation indicates that the degree of safety regarding timely
payment is very strong.

Short-Term Tax-Exempt Notes

SP-2 - The short-term tax-exempt note rating of SP-2 has a satisfactory capacity
to pay principal and interest.

<PAGE>

MOODY'S

Corporate and Municipal Bonds

Aaa - Bonds which are rated Aaa are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to
as "gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large or by an
exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure. While the various
protective elements are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized
are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of such
issues.

Aa - Bonds which are rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by all
standards. Together with the Aaa group they comprise what are generally
known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds because
margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa securities or
fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or there may
be other elements present which make the long term risks appear somewhat
larger than in Aaa securities.

Baa - Bonds which are rated Baa are considered as medium grade obligations,
i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest
payments and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain
protective elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable
over any great length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment
characteristics and in fact have speculative characteristics as well.

Commercial Paper, including Tax Exempt

Short-Term Tax Exempt Notes

MIG-2- MIG-2 rated notes are of high quality but with margins of protection not
as large as MIG-1.

GENERAL

This Statement of Additional Information relates only to the J.P.
Morgan Institutional Tax Exempt Money Market Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund is a
series of shares of beneficial interest of the J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds,
an open-end management investment company formed as a Massachusetts business
trust (the "Trust"). In addition to the Fund, the Trust consists of other series
representing separate investment funds (each a "J.P. Morgan Institutional
Fund"). The other J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds are covered by separate
Statements of Additional Information.

The Portfolio is advised by J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. ("JPMIM"
or the "Advisor").

Investments in the Fund are not deposits or obligations of, or
guaranteed or endorsed by, Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York,
("Morgan"), an affiliate of the Advisor or any other bank. Shares of the Fund
are not federally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the
Federal Reserve Board, or any other governmental agency. An investment in the
Fund is subject to risk that may cause the value of the investment to fluctuate,
and when the investment is redeemed, the value may be higher or lower than the
amount originally invested by the investor.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES

The Fund is designed for investors who seek high current income
consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity from a
portfolio of high quality money market instruments. The Fund's investment
objective is to maximize current income that is exempt from federal income tax
consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. See "Taxes."
The Fund attempts to achieve this objective by investing all of its investable
assets in The Tax Exempt Money Market Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a diversified
open-end management investment company having the same investment objective as
the Fund.

Money Market Instruments

A description of the various types of money market instruments that may be
purchased by the Fund appears below. Also see "Quality and Diversification
Requirements."

Tax Exempt Obligations

Municipal Notes. Municipal notes are subdivided into three categories of
short-term obligations: municipal notes, municipal commercial paper and
municipal demand obligations.

Municipal demand obligations are subdivided into two types: variable rate
demand notes and master demand obligations.

The Fund values any municipal bonds and notes which are subject to
puts at amortized cost. No value is assigned to the put. The cost of any such
put is carried as an unrealized loss from the time of purchase until it is
exercised or expires. The Board of Trustees would, in connection with the
determination of the value of a put, consider, among other factors, the
creditworthiness of the writer of the put, the duration of the put, the dates
on which or the periods during which the put may be exercised and the
applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.

Taxable Investments

The Portfolio attempts to invest its assets in tax exempt securities
and when investments are not available, may hold cash or may invest to a
limited extent in taxable securities. While the Fund does not currently intend
to invest in taxable securities, in abnormal market conditions for defensive
purposes only, it may invest up to 20% of the value of its total assets in
securities, the interest income on which may be subject to federal, state or
local income taxes. The taxable investments permitted for the Portfolio
include obligations of the U.S. Government and its agencies and
instrumentalities, bank obligations, commercial paper and repurchase
agreements.

Bank Obligations. The Fund, unless otherwise noted in the Prospectus
or below, may invest in negotiable certificates of deposit, time deposits and
bankers' acceptances of (i) banks, savings and loan associations and savings
banks which have more than $2 billion in total assets and are organized under
the laws of the United States or any state, (ii) foreign branches of these
banks or of foreign banks of equivalent size (Euros) and (iii) U.S. branches
of foreign banks of equivalent size (Yankees). The Fund may not invest in
obligations of foreign branches of foreign banks. The Fund will not invest in
obligations for which the Advisor, or any of its affiliated persons, is the
ultimate obligor or accepting bank.

Additional Investments

Investment Company Securities. Securities of other investment
companies may be acquired by the Fund and Portfolio to the extent permitted
under the 1940 Act or any order pursuant thereto. These limits currently
require that, as determined immediately after a purchase is made, (i) not more
than 5% of the value of the Fund's total assets will be invested in the
securities of any one investment company, (ii) not more than 10% of the value
of its total assets will be invested in the aggregate in securities of
investment companies as a group, and (iii) not more than 3% of the outstanding
voting stock of any one investment company will be owned by the Fund, provided
however, that the Fund may invest all of its investable assets in an open-end
investment company that has the same investment objective as the Fund (its
corresponding Portfolio). As a shareholder of another investment company, the
Fund or Portfolio would bear, along with other shareholders, its pro rata
portion of the other investment company's expenses, including advisory fees.
These expenses would be in addition to the advisory and other expenses that
the Fund or Portfolio bears directly in connection with its own operations.

Quality and Diversification Requirements

The Fund intends to meet the diversification requirements of the 1940
Act. Current 1940 Act diversification requirements require that with respect
to 75% of the assets of the Fund: (1) the Fund may not invest more than 5% of
its total assets in the securities of any one issuer, except obligations of
the U.S. Government, its agencies and instrumentalities, and (2) the Fund may
not own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer.
As for the other 25% of the Fund's assets not subject to the limitation
described above, there is no limitation on investment of these assets under
the 1940 Act, so that all of such assets may be invested in securities of any
one issuer. Investments not subject to the limitations described above could
involve an increased risk to the Fund should an issuer, or a state or its
related entities, be unable to make interest or principal payments or should
the market value of such securities decline.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

The investment restrictions below have been adopted by the Trust, with
respect to the Fund, and by the Portfolio. Except where otherwise noted, these
investment restrictions are "fundamental" policies which, under the 1940 Act,
may not be changed without the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting
securities of the Fund or Portfolio, as the case may be. A "majority of the
outstanding voting securities" is defined in the 1940 Act as the lesser of (a)
67% or more of the voting securities present at a meeting if the holders of
more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities are present or represented
by proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities. The
percentage limitations contained in the restrictions below apply at the time
of the purchase of securities. Whenever the Fund is requested to vote on a
change in the fundamental investment restrictions of the Portfolio, the Trust
will hold a meeting of Fund shareholders and will cast its votes as instructed
by the Fund's shareholders.

The Fund and its corresponding Portfolio:

1. May not make any investment inconsistent with the Fund's classification as a
diversified investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940;

2. May not purchase any security which would cause the Fund to concentrate its
investments in the securities of issuers primarily engaged in any particular
industry except as permitted by the SEC;

3. May not issue senior securities, except as permitted under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 or any rule, order or interpretation thereunder;

4. May not borrow money, except to the extent permitted by applicable law;

5. May not underwrite securities of other issuers, except to the extent that the
Fund, in disposing of portfolio securities, may be deemed an underwriter within
the meaning of the 1933 Act;

8. May make loans to other persons, in accordance with the Fund's investment
objective and policies and to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Non-Fundamental Investment Restrictions. The investment restrictions
described below are not fundamental policies of the Fund and its corresponding
Portfolio and may be changed by their Trustees. These non-fundamental investment
policies require that the Fund and its corresponding Portfolio:

(iii) May not acquire securities of other investment companies, except as
permitted by the 1940 Act or any order pursuant thereto.

(iv) May not borrow money, except from banks for temporary, extraordinary or
emergency purposes and then only in amounts up to 10% of the value of the Fund's
total assets, taken at cost at the time of such borrowing; or mortgage, pledge
or hypothecate any assets except in connection with any such borrowing in
amounts up to 10% of the value of the Fund's net assets at the time of such
borrowing. The Fund will not purchase securities while borrowings exceed 5% of
the Fund's total assets, provided, however, that the Fund may increase its
interest in an open-end management investment company with the same investment
objective and restrictions as the Fund's while such borrowings are outstanding.
This borrowing provision, for example, facilitates the orderly sale of portfolio
securities in the event of abnormally heavy redemption requests or in the event
of redemption requests during periods of tight market supply. This provision is
not for leveraging purposes.

(v) May not purchase industrial revenue bonds if, as a result of such purchase,
more than 5% of total Fund assets would be invested in industrial revenue bonds
where payment of principal and interest are the responsibility of companies with
fewer than three years of operating history.

For purposes of fundamental investment restrictions regarding industry
concentration, the Advisor may classify issuers by industry in accordance with
classifications set forth in the Directory of Companies Filing Annual Reports
With The Securities and Exchange Commission or other sources. In the absence of
such classification or if the Advisor determines in good faith based on its own
information that the economic characteristics affecting a particular issuer make
it more appropriately considered to be engaged in a different industry, the
Advisor may classify an issuer accordingly. For instance, personal credit
finance companies and business credit finance companies are deemed to be
separate industries and wholly owned finance companies are considered to be in
the industry of their parents if their activities are primarily related to
financing the activities of their parents.

York trust company which conducts a general banking and trust business. Morgan
is subject to regulation by the New York State Banking Department and is a
member bank of the Federal Reserve System. Through offices in New York City

States and throughout the world.

The Portfolio paid the following advisory fees to Morgan and JPMIM, as
applicable, for the fiscal years ended August 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999:
$2,267,159, $2,710,567 and $3,052,997.

$147,085.

for the fiscal years ended August 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999: $397,340, $502,654
and $542,467.

CUSTODIAN AND TRANSFER AGENT

SHAREHOLDER SERVICING

The Trust on behalf of the Fund has entered into a Shareholder
Servicing Agreement with Morgan pursuant to which Morgan acts as shareholder
servicing agent for its customers and for other Fund investors who are customers
of a Financial Professional. Under this agreement, Morgan is responsible for
performing shareholder account, administrative and servicing functions, which
include but are not limited to, answering inquiries regarding account status and
history, the manner in which purchases and redemptions of Fund shares may be
effected, and certain other matters pertaining to the Fund; assisting customers
in designating and changing dividend options, account designations and
addresses; providing necessary personnel and facilities to coordinate the
establishment and maintenance of shareholder accounts and records with the
Fund's transfer agent; transmitting purchase and redemption orders to the Fund's
transfer agent and arranging for the wiring or other transfer of funds to and
from customer accounts in connection with orders to purchase or redeem Fund
shares; verifying purchase and redemption orders, transfers among and changes in
accounts; informing the Distributor of the gross amount of purchase orders for
Fund shares; monitoring the activities of the Fund's transfer agent; and
providing other related services.

Under the Shareholder Servicing Agreement, the Fund has agreed to pay
Morgan for these services a fee at the annual rate of 0.10%(expressed as a
percentage of the average daily net asset value of Fund shares owned by or for
shareholders for whom Morgan is acting as shareholder servicing agent). Morgan
acts as shareholder servicing agent for all shareholders.

The shareholder servicing fees paid by the Fund to Morgan for the
fiscal years ended August 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999 were as follows: $97,098,
$278,809 and $552,311. See "Expenses" in the Prospectus and below for applicable
expense limitations.

As discussed under "Investment Advisor," the Glass-Steagall Act and
other applicable laws and regulations limit the activities of bank holding
companies and certain of their subsidiaries in connection with registered
open-end investment companies. The activities of Morgan in acting as shareholder
servicing agent for Fund shareholders under the Shareholder Servicing Agreement
and providing administrative services to the Fund and the Portfolio under the
Services Agreements, and the activities of JPMIM in acting as Advisor to the
Portfolio under the Investment Advisory Agreement may raise issues under these
laws. However, Morgan and JPMIM believes that they may properly perform these
services and the other activities described in the Prospectus without violation
of the Glass-Steagall Act or other applicable banking laws or regulations.

If Morgan were prohibited from providing any of the services under the
Shareholder Servicing Agreement and the Services Agreements, the Trustees would
seek an alternative provider of such services. In such event, changes in the
operation of the Fund or the Portfolio might occur and a shareholder might no
longer be able to avail himself or herself of any services then being provided
to shareholders by Morgan.

The Fund may be sold to or through financial intermediaries who are
customers of J.P. Morgan ("financial professionals"), including financial
institutions and broker-dealers, that may be paid fees by J.P. Morgan or its
affiliates for services provided to their clients that invest in the Fund. See
"Financial Professionals" below. Organizations that provide recordkeeping or
other services to certain employee benefit or retirement plans that include the
Fund as an investment alternative may also be paid a fee.

FINANCIAL PROFESSIONALS

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

EXPENSES

In addition to the fees payable to Pierpont Group, Inc., JPMIM, Morgan
and FDI under various agreements discussed under "Trustees and Officers,"
"Investment Advisor," "Co-Administrator", "Distributor," "Services Agent" and
"Shareholder Servicing" above, the Fund and the Portfolio are responsible for
usual and customary expenses associated with their respective operations. Such
expenses include organization expenses, legal fees, accounting and audit
expenses, insurance costs, the compensation and expenses of the Trustees, costs
associated with their registration fees under federal securities laws, and
extraordinary expenses applicable to the Fund or the Portfolio. For the Fund,
such expenses also include transfer, registrar and dividend disbursing costs,
the expenses of printing and mailing reports, notices and proxy statements to
Fund shareholders, and filing fees under state securities laws. For the
Portfolio, such expenses also include custodian fees. For additional information
regarding waivers or expense subsidies, see the Prospectus.

J.P. Morgan has agreed that it will reimburse all Fund expenses until
February 28, 2001 except those allocated to the Fund by the Portfolio. If the
Portfolio's allocation of expenses to the Fund exceeds 0.25% of the Fund's
average daily net assets, J.P. Morgan will reimburse the Fund to the extent
necessary to maintain the Fund's expenses at the annual rate of 0.25% of the
Fund's average daily net assets. If the Portfolio's allocation of expenses to
the Fund falls below 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets, J.P. Morgan
will reimburse the Fund's expenses in excess of those required to bring the
Fund's expenses to the annual rate of 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net
assets. These limits do not cover extraordinary expenses.

The table below sets forth the fees and other expenses J.P. Morgan
reimbursed under the expense reimbursement arrangements described above or
pursuant to prior expense reimbursement arrangements for the fiscal periods
indicated.

Fund -- For the fiscal years ended August 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999: $199,947,
$646,533 and $809,338.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

The Fund declares and pays dividends and distributions as described in
the Prospectus.

NET ASSET VALUE

The Fund computes its net asset value once daily on Monday through
Friday as described in the Prospectus. The net asset value will not be computed
on the day the following legal holidays are observed: New Year's Day, Martin
Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence
Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veteran's Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas
Day. In the event that trading in the money markets is scheduled to end earlier
than the close of the New York Stock Exchange in observance of these holidays,
the Fund and Portfolio would expect to close for purchases and redemptions an
hour in advance of the end of trading in the money markets. The Fund and the
Portfolio may also close for purchases and redemptions at such other times as
may be determined by the Board of Trustees to the extent permitted by applicable
law. On any business day when the Bond Market Association ("BMA") recommends
that the securities market close early, the Fund reserves the right to cease
accepting purchase and redemption orders for same business day credit at the
time BMA recommends that the securities market close. On days the Fund closes
early, purchase and redemption orders received after the Fund closes will be
credited the next business day. The days on which net asset value is determined
are the Fund's business days.

PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

In connection with portfolio transactions for the Portfolio, the
Advisor intends to seek the best price and execution on a competitive basis for
both purchases and sales of securities.

Portfolio securities will not be purchased from or through or sold to
or through the Co-Administrator, the Distributor or the Advisor or any other
"affiliated person" (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Co-Administrator,
Distributor or Advisor when such entities are acting as principals, except to
the extent permitted by law. In addition, the Portfolio will not purchase
securities during the existence of any underwriting group relating thereto of
which the Advisor or an affiliate of the Advisor is a member, except to the
extent permitted by law.

MASSACHUSETTS TRUST

Effective January 1, 1998, the name of the Trust was changed from "The
JPM Institutional Funds" to "J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds," and the Fund's
name changed accordingly.

Under Massachusetts law, shareholders of such a trust may, under
certain circumstances, be held personally liable as partners for the obligations
of the trust which is not the case for a corporation. However, the Trust's
Declaration of Trust provides that the shareholders shall not be subject to any
personal liability for the acts or obligations of the Fund and that every
written agreement, obligation, instrument or undertaking made on behalf of the
Fund shall contain a provision to the effect that the shareholders are not
personally liable thereunder.

No personal liability will attach to the shareholders under any
undertaking containing such provision when adequate notice of such provision is
given, except possibly in a few jurisdictions. With respect to all types of
claims in the latter jurisdictions, (i) tort claims, (ii) contract claims where
the provision referred to is omitted from the undertaking, (iii) claims for
taxes, and (iv) certain statutory liabilities in other jurisdictions, a
shareholder may be held personally liable to the extent that claims are not
satisfied by the Fund. However, upon payment of such liability, the shareholder
will be entitled to reimbursement from the general assets of the Fund. The
Trustees intend to conduct the operations of the Trust in such a way so as to
avoid, as far as possible, ultimate liability of the shareholders for
liabilities of the Fund.

The Trust's Declaration of Trust further provides that the name of the
Trust refers to the Trustees collectively as Trustees, not as individuals or
personally, that no Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Fund is liable to
the Fund or to a shareholder, and that no Trustee, officer, employee, or agent
is liable to any third persons in connection with the affairs of the Fund,
except as such liability may arise from his or its own bad faith, willful
misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of his or its duties to such
third persons. It also provides that all third persons shall look solely to Fund
property for satisfaction of claims arising in connection with the affairs of
the Fund. With the exceptions stated, the Trust's Declaration of Trust provides
that a Trustee, officer, employee, or agent is entitled to be indemnified
against all liability in connection with the affairs of the Fund.

DESCRIPTION OF SHARES

The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited
number of full and fractional shares ($0.001 par value) of one or more series
and classes within any series and to divide or combine the shares (of any
series, if applicable) without changing the proportionate beneficial interest of
each shareholder in the Fund (or in the assets of other series, if applicable).
Each share represents an equal proportional interest in the Fund with each other
share. Upon liquidation of the Fund, holders are entitled to share pro rata in
the net assets of the Fund available for distribution to such shareholders. See
"Massachusetts Trust." Shares of the Fund have no preemptive or conversion
rights and are fully paid and nonassessable. The rights of redemption and
exchange are described in the Prospectus and elsewhere in this Statement of
Additional Information.

For information relating to mandatory redemption of Fund shares or
their redemption at the option of the Trust under certain circumstances, see the
Prospectus.

As of November 30, 1999, the following owned of record more than 5% of the
outstanding shares of the Fund: E. H. Skove (5.37%).

SPECIAL INFORMATION CONCERNING INVESTMENT STRUCTURE

TAXES

The Fund intends to qualify and remain qualified as a regulated
investment company under Subchapter M of the Code. As a regulated investment
company, the Fund must, among other things, (a) derive at least 90% of its gross
income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to loans of stock and
securities, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or
foreign currency and other income (including but not limited to gains from
options, futures, and forward contracts) derived with respect to its business of
investing in such securities or foreign currency; and (b) diversify its holdings
so that, at the end of each quarter of its taxable year, (i) at least 50% of the
value of the Fund's total assets is represented by cash, cash items, U.S.
Government securities, securities of other regulated investment companies, and
other securities limited, in respect of any one issuer, to an amount not greater
than 5% of the Fund's total assets, and 10% of the outstanding voting securities
of such issuer, and (ii) not more than 25% of the value of its total assets is
invested in the securities of any one issuer (other than U.S. Government
securities or securities of other regulated investment companies). As a
regulated investment company, the Fund (as opposed to its shareholders) will not
be subject to federal income taxes on the net investment income and capital gain
that it distributes to its shareholders, provided that at least 90% of its net
investment income and realized net short-term capital gain in excess of net
long-term capital loss for the taxable year is distributed in accordance with
the Code's timing requirements.

Distributions of net investment income and realized net short-term
capital gains in excess of net long-term capital losses (other than exempt
interest dividends) are generally taxable to shareholders of the Fund as
ordinary income whether such distributions are taken in cash or reinvested in
additional shares. Distributions to corporate shareholders of the Fund are not
eligible for the dividends received deduction. Distributions of net long-term
capital gain (i.e., net long-term capital gain in excess of net short-term
capital loss) are taxable to shareholders of the Fund as long-term capital
gains, regardless of whether such distributions are taken in cash or reinvested
in additional shares and regardless of how long a shareholder has held shares in
the Fund. In general, long-term capital gain of an individual shareholder will
be subject to a 20% rate of tax.

To maintain a constant $1.00 per share net asset value, the Trustees of
the Trust may direct that the number of outstanding shares be reduced pro rata.
If this adjustment is made, it will reflect the lower market value of portfolio
securities and not realized losses. The adjustment may result in a shareholder
having more dividend income than net income in his account for a period. When
the number of outstanding shares of the Fund is reduced, the shareholder's basis
in the shares of the Fund may be adjusted to reflect the difference between
taxable income and net dividends actually distributed. This difference may be
realized as a capital loss when the shares are liquidated. Subject to certain
limited exceptions, capital losses cannot be used to offset ordinary income. See
"Net Asset Value."

Gains or losses on sales of portfolio securities will be treated as
long-term capital gains or losses if the securities have been held for more than
one year except in certain cases where, if applicable, a put option is acquired
or a call option is written thereon or straddle rules are otherwise applicable.
Other gains or losses on the sale of securities will be short-term capital gains
or losses. Gains and losses on the sale, lapse or other termination of options
on securities will be treated as gains and losses from the sale of securities.
If an option written by the Portfolio lapses or is terminated through a closing
transaction, such as a repurchase by the Portfolio of the option from its
holder, the Portfolio will realize a short-term capital gain or loss, depending
on whether the premium income is greater or less than the amount paid by the
Portfolio in the closing transaction. If securities are purchased by the
Portfolio pursuant to the exercise of a put option written by it, the Portfolio
will subtract the premium received from its cost basis in the securities
purchased.

Any gain or loss realized on the redemption or exchange of Fund shares
by a shareholder who is not a dealer in securities will be treated as long-term
capital gain or loss if the shares have been held for more than one year, and
otherwise as short-term capital gain or loss. Long-term capital gain of an
individual holder is subject to maximum tax rate of 20%. However, any loss
realized by a shareholder upon the redemption or exchange of shares in the Fund
held for six months or less will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the
extent of any long-term capital gain distributions received by the shareholder
with respect to such shares. Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors
concerning the limitations on the deductibility of capital losses. Additionally,
any loss realized on a redemption or exchange of shares of the Fund will be
disallowed to the extent the shares disposed of are replaced by securities that
are substantially identical to shares of the Fund within a period of 61 days
beginning 30 days before such disposition, such as pursuant to reinvestment of a
dividend in shares of the Fund.

The Year 2000 Initiative

With With the new millennium rapidly approaching, organizations have
continued to examine their computer systems to ensure they are year 2000
compliant. The issue, in simple terms, is that many existing computer systems
use only two numbers to identify a year in the date field with the assumption
that the first two digits are always "19." As the century is implied in the
date, on January 1, 2000, computers that are not year 2000 compliant will assume
the year is 1900. Systems that calculate, compare, or sort using the incorrect
date will cause erroneous results, ranging from system malfunctions to incorrect
or incomplete transaction processing. If not remedied, potential risks include
business interruption or shutdown, financial loss, reputation loss, and/or legal
liability.

APPENDIX A

Description of Security Ratings

STANDARD & POOR'S

Corporate and Municipal Bonds

AAA - Debt rated AAA have the highest ratings assigned by Standard & Poor's to
a debt obligation. Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is
extremely strong.

AA - Debt rated AA have a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal and differ from the highest rated issues only in a small degree.

A - Debt rated A have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal
although they are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of
changes in circumstances and economic conditions than debt in higher rated
categories.

BBB - Debt rated BBB are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay
interest and repay principal. Whereas they normally exhibit adequate
protection parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing
circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay
interest and repay principal for debt in this category than for debt in
higher rated categories.

Commercial Paper, including Tax Exempt

A-1 - This designation indicates that the degree of safety regarding timely
payment is very strong.

Short-Term Tax-Exempt Notes

SP-2 - The short-term tax-exempt note rating of SP-2 has a satisfactory capacity
to pay principal and interest.

<PAGE>

MOODY'S

Corporate and Municipal Bonds

Aaa - Bonds which are rated Aaa are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to
as "gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large or by an
exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure. While the various
protective elements are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized
are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of such
issues.

Aa - Bonds which are rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by all
standards. Together with the Aaa group they comprise what are generally
known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds because
margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa securities or
fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or there may
be other elements present which make the long term risks appear somewhat
larger than in Aaa securities.

Baa - Bonds which are rated Baa are considered as medium grade obligations,
i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest
payments and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain
protective elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable
over any great length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment
characteristics and in fact have speculative characteristics as well.

Commercial Paper, including Tax Exempt

Prime-1 - Issuers rated Prime-1 (or related supporting institutions)
have a superior capacity for repayment of short-term
promissory obligations. Prime-1 repayment capacity will
normally be evidenced by the following characteristics:

<PAGE>

Short-Term Tax Exempt Notes

MIG-2 - MIG-2 rated notes are of high quality but with margins of protection not
as large as MIG-1.

the Trust. Mr. Healey is also an "interested person" (as defined in the
1940 Act) of the Advisor due to his son's affiliation with JPMIM.

ITEM 24. PERSONS CONTROLLED BY OR UNDER COMMON CONTROL WITH THE FUND.

Not applicable.

ITEM 25. INDEMNIFICATION.

Reference is made to Section 5.3 of Registrant's Declaration of Trust and
Section 5 of Registrant's Distribution Agreement.

Registrant, its Trustees and officers are insured against certain expenses in
connection with the defense of claims, demands, actions, suits, or proceedings,
and certain liabilities that might be imposed as a result of such actions, suits
or proceedings.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), may be permitted to directors, trustees,
officers and controlling persons of the Registrant and the principal underwriter
pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the Registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, trustee, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant
and the principal underwriter in connection with the successful defense of any
action, suite or proceeding) is asserted against the Registrant by such
director, trustee, officer or controlling person or principal underwriter in
connection with the shares being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

ITEM 26. BUSINESS AND OTHER CONNECTIONS OF THE INVESTMENT ADVISER.
