LETTER TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE J.P. MORGAN TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND
October 1, 1999
Dear Shareholder:
The past year has seen some major shifts in the global economy. The U.S. has
continued to be the engine of global growth; however, whereas last fall saw most
of the world's economies stumbling heavily, this fall has been a period of
reignited growth. Japan has shown the greatest strength as its equity market has
been among the top performers for most of the year, due to a renewal of investor
confidence. The emerging markets, crippled by currency crises and ensuing asset
crises, have made substantial progress in recovery (though, of course, some are
still limping). And Europe, stalled for most of the year, has shown improvement
in many of the major economies. All this with subdued global inflation. During
the one-year period ended August 31, 1999, the J.P. Morgan Tax Exempt Money
Market Fund returned 2.75%, while its benchmark, the IBC Money Fund Report Tax
Free Retail Fund Average, posted a return of 2.61%. The fund's average 7-day
current yield of 2.70% translates to a tax equivalent yield of 4.47%, assuming a
39.6% federal income tax rate.
The fund maintained a stable $1.00 net asset value over the period. On
August 31, 1999, the net assets of the fund were approximately $1.6 billion,
while the net assets of the master portfolio, in which the fund invests, were
approximately $2.1 billion. Dividends of approximately $0.03 were paid from
ordinary income, all of which is exempt from federal income taxes.
This report includes a question and answer session with Dick Oswald, the
portfolio manager primarily responsible for the master portfolio. In this
interview, Dick talks about the events of the previous 12 months that had the
greatest effect on the portfolio and discusses how our investment strategy was
used to protect assets in a difficult environment.
As chairman and president of Asset Management Services, we appreciate your
investment in the fund. If you have any comments or questions, please call your
Morgan representative or J.P. Morgan Funds Services at (800) 521-5411.
Sincerely yours,
/s/ Ramon de Oliveira /s/ Keith M. Schappert

FUND PERFORMANCE
EXAMINING PERFORMANCE
One way to look at performance is to review a fund's average annual total
return. This figure takes the fund's actual (or cumulative) return and shows
what would have happened if the fund had achieved that return by performing at a
constant rate each year. Average annual total returns represent the average
yearly change of a fund's value over various time periods, typically one, five,
or ten years (or since inception). Total returns for periods of less than one
year are not annualized and provide a picture of how a fund has performed over
the short term.

PORTFOLIO MANAGER Q&A
[PHOTO]
The following is an interview with DICK OSWALD, VICE PRESIDENT, responsible for
managing the master portfolio, in which the fund invests. Dick joined Morgan in
October 1996 after eight years with CBS Inc., where he served as corporate
treasurer and president of the company's investment subsidiary. In this
capacity, he managed a portfolio invested in a broad range of fixed income
securities including preferred stocks and tax-exempt bonds. Prior to CBS Inc.,
he was at Primerica Corporation and Price Waterhouse. Dick earned a BA from the
University of Toronto and an MBA from the Rochester Institute of Technology, and
is licensed as a CPA in New York State.
This interview was conducted on September 15, 1999, and represents Dick's views
on that date.
WHAT FACTORS HAVE HAD THE GREATEST IMPACT ON THE TAX-EXEMPT MONEY MARKET OVER
THE PAST YEAR?
DO: There have been two key influences on the tax-exempt money market over the
past 12 months. Traditionally, the short-term tax-exempt market is affected by
seasonal factors such as year-end balance sheet-related activity, tax-exempt
coupon payment dates, and tax payment due dates. In the periods around year-end
and April 15th there tends to be an outflow of assets from the market which
causes rates to spike upwards. In April of this year, for example, short-term
rates rose 100 basis points. The opposite happened on January 1st and July 1st
when many municipal bonds pay interest. Much of this money flows into the
short-term markets for immediate investment which pushes demand for short-term
securities up and rates down.
In addition to the seasonality of this market, a dearth of supply in the past
year has also helped to keep short-term rates low. As the economy continues to
boom, more and more tax dollars have been flowing into the coffers of
municipalities, reducing the need for short-term financing. This drop in
issuance is particularly noticeable in the variable rate demand note (VRDN)
sector, in which the portfolio is a regular investor.
HOW HAVE YOU HAD THE PORTFOLIO POSITIONED TO WEATHER THIS VOLATILITY?
DO: Staying liquid is the key to weathering the interest rate volatility. We are
fortunate to have a relatively stable investor base; thus we can minimize
liquidity - that is, reduce the amount of cash needed on hand - and can invest a
bit farther out on the yield curve. To minimize liquidity, we reduce our
holdings in the lowest yielding securities, usually those with the shortest
term. This is particularly critical around the coupon payment dates mentioned
above when inflows into tax-exempt money market instruments usually cause
short-term rates to fall. As a result, we benefit from that rise.
TO WHAT DO YOU ATTRIBUTE THE FUND'S OUTPERFORMANCE IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS?
DO: Minimizing the lowest yielding securities in the portfolio, as well as
anticipating the traditional rate movements and increasing the average life of
the holdings, has been the main contributing factor to our out performance.
3
<PAGE>
WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK GOING FORWARD?
DO: We see several things happening in the coming months. First, we expect the
lack of supply to continue, if not worsen. This, in turn, should cause the short
end of the yield curve (1 day to 1 year) to steepen further. Second, we
anticipate investors will want greater daily liquidity in response to growing
concerns as Y2K approaches. The result of investors paying a premium for
liquidity will be to drive short-term rates down in a rising rate environment.
Additionally, issuers will be worried about potential Y2K problems and, as we
are seeing in the taxable market, many issuers have set maturities for late
January into February to avoid potential year-end complications.
IN LIGHT OF THIS FORECAST, HOW ARE YOU POSITIONING THE PORTFOLIO?
DO: We will keep duration on the shorter side in anticipation of further Fed
hikes. We will continue to monitor our liquidity levels and selectively invest
in attractive opportunities as issuers push the maturities of their short-term
borrowings out past year-end.

<PAGE>
GLOSSARY OF TERMS
AVERAGE MATURITY: The weighted average time to maturity of the entire portfolio
with the weights equal to the percentage of the portfolio invested in each
security (see Maturity).
CREDIT RATING: The rating assigned to a bond or note by independent rating
agencies such as Standard & Poor's Corporation and Moody's Investors Service. In
evaluating creditworthiness, these agencies assess the issuer's present
financial condition and future ability and willingness to make principal and
interest payments when due.
CREDIT RISK: Financial risk that an obligation will not be paid and a loss will
result.
LETTER OF CREDIT: Instrument or document issued by a bank guaranteeing the
payment of a customer's drafts up to a stated amount and eliminating the
seller's risk.
MATURITY: The date on which the life of a financial instrument ends through cash
or physical settlement or expiration with no value or the date a security comes
due and fully payable.
VARIABLE RATE DEMAND NOTE: Note representing borrowings that is payable on
demand and that bears interest tied to a base money market rate, usually the
bank prime rate. The rate on the note is adjusted upward or downward each time
the base rate changes.
YIELD: Coupon rate of interest on a bond divided by the purchase price. As a
bond's price falls, its yield rises and vice versa.
YIELD CURVE: A graph showing the term structure or level of interest rates
ranging from the shortest to the longest maturities. The resulting curve shows
if short-term interest rates are higher or lower than long-term rates. Normally,
the longer the bond, the higher the yield it offers, resulting in a positive
yield curve. An inverted yield curve can occur when there are supply/demand
imbalances for various maturities, which results in short-term rates at higher
levels than longer-term instruments.
YIELD SPREAD: The difference in yield between different types of securities. For
example, if a Treasury bond is yielding 6.00% and a municipal is yielding 5.00%,
the yield spread is 1.00% or 100 basis points.

J.P. MORGAN TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AUGUST 31, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
J.P. Morgan Tax Exempt Money Market Fund (the "fund") is a separate series of
the J.P. Morgan Funds, a Massachusetts business trust (the "trust") which was
organized on November 4, 1992. The trust is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company.
The fund, prior to its tax-free reorganization on July 11, 1993, to a series of
the trust, operated as a stand-alone mutual fund. Costs related to the
reorganization were borne by Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York
("Morgan"), a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated
("J.P. Morgan").
The fund invests 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 value of such
investment included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects the
fund's proportionate interest in the net assets of the portfolio (79% at August
31, 1999). The performance of the fund is directly affected by the performance
of the portfolio. The financial statements of the portfolio, including the
Schedule of Investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be
read in conjunction with the fund's financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual amounts could differ from
those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
a) Valuation of securities by the portfolio is discussed in Note 1a of the
portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in
this report.
b) The fund records its share of net investment income, realized gain and
loss and adjusts its investment in the portfolio each day. All the net
investment income and realized gain and loss of the portfolio is allocated
pro rata among the fund and other investors in the portfolio at the time
of such determination.
c) Substantially all the fund's net investment income and net realized
capital gain, if any, are declared as dividends daily and paid monthly.
Net short-term capital gains, if any, will be distributed in accordance
with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"),
as amended, and may be reflected in the fund's daily dividends.
Substantially all the realized net long-term capital gains, if any, are
declared and paid annually, except that an additional capital gains
distribution may be made in a given year to the extent necessary to avoid
the imposition of federal excise tax on the fund.
d) Expenses incurred by the trust with respect to any two or more funds in
the trust are allocated in proportion to the net assets of each fund in
the trust, except where allocations of direct expenses to each fund can
otherwise be made fairly. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are
charged to that fund.
e) The fund is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes
and intends to comply with the provisions of the Code, as amended,
applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
substantially all of its income, including net realized capital gains, if
any, within the prescribed time periods. Accordingly, no provision for
federal income or excise tax is necessary.

<PAGE>
J.P. MORGAN TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
AUGUST 31, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
f) For federal income tax purposes, the fund had a capital loss carryforward
at August 31, 1999 of $244,941, of which $8,529 expires in 2003 and
$236,412 expires in 2004. The fund utilized $28,019 of its capital loss
carryforward during the fiscal year. To the extent that this capital loss
is used to offset future capital gains, it is probable that the gains so
offset will not be distributed to shareholders.
g) The fund incurred approximately $67,652 of realized long term capital
losses in the period from November 1, 1998 to August 31, 1999. These
losses were deferred for tax purposes until September 1, 1999.
2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
a) The trust, on behalf of the fund, has retained Funds Distributor, Inc.
("FDI"), a registered broker-dealer, to serve as co-administrator and
distributor for the fund. Under a Co-Administration Agreement between FDI
and the trust on behalf of the fund, FDI provides administrative services
necessary for the operations of the fund, furnishes office space and
facilities required for conducting the business of the fund and pays the
compensation of the fund's officers affiliated with FDI. The fund 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 the fund is based on the ratio of the fund's net
assets to the aggregate net assets of the trust and certain other
investment companies subject to similar agreements with FDI. For the
fiscal year ended August 31, 1999, the fee for these services amounted to
$23,415.
b) The trust, on behalf of the fund, has an Administrative Services Agreement
(the "Services Agreement") with Morgan, under which Morgan is responsible
for certain aspects of the administration and operation of the fund. Under
the Services Agreement, the fund has agreed to pay Morgan a fee equal to
its allocable share of an annual complex-wide charge. This charge is
calculated based on the aggregate average daily net assets of the
portfolio and the other portfolios in which the trust and the J.P. Morgan
Institutional Funds invest (the "master portfolios") and J.P. Morgan
Series Trust in accordance with the following annual schedule: 0.09% on
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 is determined by the proportionate share its net assets bear
to the net assets of the trust, the master portfolios, other investors in
the master portfolios for which Morgan provides similar services, and
J.P. Morgan Series Trust. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999, the
fee for these services amounted to $391,466.
c) The trust, on behalf of the fund, has a Shareholder Servicing Agreement
with Morgan to provide account administration and personal account
maintenance service to fund shareholders. The agreement provides for the
fund to pay Morgan a fee for these services which is computed daily and
paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of
the fund. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999, the fee for these
services amounted to $3,715,230.
Morgan, Charles Schwab & Co. ("Schwab") and the trust are parties to
separate services and operating agreements (the "Schwab Agreements")
whereby Schwab makes fund shares available to customers of investment
advisors and other financial intermediaries who are Schwab's clients. The
fund is not
13

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
responsible for payments to Schwab under the Schwab Agreements; however,
in the event the Schwab Agreement with Schwab is terminated for reasons
other than a breach by Schwab and the relationship between the trust and
Morgan is terminated, the fund would be responsible for the ongoing
payments to Schwab with respect to pre-termination shares.
d) The trust, on behalf of the fund, has a Fund Services Agreement with
Pierpont Group, Inc. ("Group") to assist the trustees in exercising their
overall supervisory responsibilities for the trust's affairs. The trustees
of the trust represent all the existing shareholders of Group. The fund's
allocated portion of Group's costs in performing its services amounted to
$32,377 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999.
e) An aggregate annual fee of $75,000 is paid to each trustee for serving as
a trustee of the trust, the J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds, the master
portfolios and J.P. Morgan Series Trust. The Trustees' Fees and Expenses
shown in the financial statements represents the fund's allocated portion
of the total fees and expenses. The trust's Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer also serves as Chairman of Group and receives compensation and
employee benefits from Group in his role as Group's Chairman. The
allocated portion of such compensation and benefits included in the Fund
Services Fee shown in the financial statements was $6,200.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees and Shareholders of
J.P. Morgan Tax Exempt Money Market Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities and the
related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial
highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
J.P. MorganTax Exempt Money Market Fund (one of the series constituting part of
the J.P. Morgan Funds, hereafter referred to as the "fund") at August 31, 1999,
the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net
assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial
highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and
financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the fund's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the

THE TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AUGUST 31, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Tax Exempt Money Market Portfolio (the "portfolio") is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end
management investment company which was organized as a trust under the laws of
the State of New York on January 29, 1993. The portfolio commenced operations on
July 12, 1993. The portfolio'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. The Declaration of Trust permits the trustees
to issue an unlimited number of beneficial interests in the portfolio.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual amounts could differ from
those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting
policies of the portfolio:
a) Investments are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
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 instruments.
b) Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest
income, which includes the amortization of premiums and discounts, if any,
is recorded on an accrual basis. For financial and tax reporting purposes,
realized gains and losses are determined on the basis of specific lot
identification.
c) The portfolio intends to be treated as a partnership for federal income
tax purposes. As such, each investor in the portfolio will be taxed on its
share of the portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended
that the portfolio's assets will be managed in such a way that an investor
in the portfolio will be able to satisfy the requirements of Subchapter M
of the Internal Revenue Code. The cost of securities is substantially the
same for book and tax purposes.
2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
a) Prior to October 1, 1998, the portfolio had an Investment Advisory
Agreement with Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York ("Morgan"), a
wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated ("J.P. Morgan").
Under the terms of the agreement, the portfolio paid Morgan at an annual
rate of 0.20% of the portfolio's average daily net assets up to $1 billion
and 0.10% on any excess over $1 billion. Effective October 1, 1998, the
portfolio's investment advisor is J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc.,
("JPMIM"), an affiliate of Morgan and a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P.
Morgan, and the terms of the agreement have remained the same. For the
fiscal year ended August 31, 1999, such fees amounted to $3,052,997.
b) The portfolio has retained Funds Distributor, Inc. ("FDI"), a registered
broker-dealer, to serve as the co-administrator and exclusive placement
agent. Under a Co-Administration Agreement between FDI and the portfolio,
FDI provides administrative services necessary for the operations of the
portfolio, furnishes office space and facilities required for conducting
the business of the portfolio and pays the compensation of the officers
affiliated with FDI. The portfolio has agreed to pay FDI fees equal to its
35

THE TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
AUGUST 31, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
allocable share of an annual complex-wide charge of $425,000 plus FDI's
out-of-pocket expenses. The amount allocable to the portfolio is based on
the ratio of the portfolio's net assets to the aggregate net assets of the
portfolio and certain other investment companies subject to similar
agreements with FDI. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999, the fee
for these services amounted to $20,175.
c) The portfolio has an Administrative Services Agreement (the "Services
Agreement") with Morgan under which Morgan is responsible for certain
aspects of the administration and operation of the portfolio. Under the
Services Agreement, the portfolio has agreed to pay Morgan a fee equal to
its allocable share of an annual complex-wide charge. This charge is
calculated based on the aggregate average daily net assets of the
portfolio and certain other portfolios for which JPMIM acts as investment
advisor (the "master portfolios") and J.P. Morgan Series Trust in
accordance with the following annual schedule: 0.09% on 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 portfolio is determined by the proportionate share that its net assets
bear to the net assets of the master portfolios, other investors in the
master portfolios for which Morgan provides similar services, and J.P.
Morgan Series Trust. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999, the fee
for these services amounted to $542,467.
d) The portfolio has a Fund Services Agreement with Pierpont Group, Inc.
("Group") to assist the trustees in exercising their overall supervisory
responsibilities for the portfolio's affairs. The trustees of the
portfolio represent all the existing shareholders of Group. The
portfolio's allocated portion of Group's costs in performing its services
amounted to $46,121 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999.
e) An aggregate annual fee of $75,000 is paid to each trustee for serving as
a trustee of the trust, the J.P. Morgan Funds, the J.P. Morgan
Institutional Funds, the master portfolios and J.P. Morgan Series Trust.
The Trustees' Fees and Expenses shown in the financial statements
represents the portfolio's allocated portion of the total fees and
expenses. The portfolio's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer also serves
as Chairman of Group and receives compensation and employee benefits from
Group in his role as Group's Chairman. The allocated portion of such
compensation and benefits included in the Fund Services Fee shown in the
financial statements was $8,800.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees and Investors of
The Tax Exempt Money Market Portfolio
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the supplementary data present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of The Tax Exempt Money Market Portfolio (the
"portfolio") at August 31, 1999, the results of its operations for the year then
ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period
then ended and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period
then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements and supplementary data (hereafter referred to as "financial
statements") are the responsibility of the portfolio's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at
August 31, 1999 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
