LETTER TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE J.P. MORGAN TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND

January 3, 2000

Dear Shareholder:

During the one-year period ended November 30, 1999, the J.P. Morgan Tax
Exempt Money Market Fund returned 2.78% versus the 2.62% return of the Lipper
Tax Exempt Money Market Funds Average. The fund's average 7-day current yield
of 3.29% translates to a tax equivalent yield of 5.45%, assuming a 39.6%
federal income tax rate.

The fund maintained a stable $1.00 net asset value over the period. On
November 30, 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 $0.01
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 and member of
the portfolio management team for 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 a CPA. This interview was
conducted on December 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 three key factors that influenced 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 15 there tends to be an outflow of assets
from the market that causes rates to spike upwards. The opposite occurs on
January 1 and June 1 when many municipalities make coupon payments. Secondly,
three Fed rate increases in June, October, and November pushed short-term
tax-exempt yields higher in sympathy with their taxable counterparts. And
finally, concerns over Y2K-related effects on the availability of investments
over the year end have caused a great deal of speculation and positioning as
December 31 approaches.

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. In addition, we entered into an
agreement to purchase a block of short-term tax-exempt notes over year-end to
ensure that the fund would have sufficient attractive investments at a time
when liquidity was expected to disappear.

I would like to note that, during the period, the fund received an AAA rating
from both Standard & Poor's and Moody's. All of our money market funds now
have this top rating.

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 outperformance.

                                                                             3
<PAGE>

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK GOING FORWARD?

DO: We see several things happening in the coming months. Despite earlier
fears of a lack of supply over year-end, year-end activity is progressing
rather normally. We expect the rising rate environment to continue, with a 25
basis point hike expected from the Fed at its February meeting. Eventually,
these incremental steps will bring about the desired slowdown and "soft
landing." We think that the current strength in oil prices will translate
into increasing headline inflation, noticeable as early as the first quarter
of 2000. Global growth will also continue its positive trend which will have
implications down the road for U.S. assets as other countries' assets become
more attractive on a relative value basis.

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.

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.

                                                                            5

J.P. MORGAN TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 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"). At a meeting on November 12, 1998, the trustees elected to change the
fund's fiscal year end from August 31 to November 30.

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 (78% at
November 30, 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 gains, 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   f) For federal income tax purposes, the fund had a capital loss carryforward
      at November 30, 1999 of $502,327, of which $8,529 expires in 2003,
      $236,412 expires in 2004 and $257,386 expires in 2007. 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.

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 three
      months ended November 30, 1999 and for the fiscal year ended August 31,
      1999, the fee for these services amounted to $5,493 and $23,415,
      respectively.

   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 three months ended November 30, 1999 and for
      the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999, the fee for these services amounted
      to $100,847 and $391,466, respectively.

   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 three months ended November 30, 1999 and for the fiscal
      year ended August 31, 1999, the fee for these services amounted to
      $1,003,173 and $3,715,230, respectively.

      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 responsible for payments to Schwab under the Schwab
      Agreements; however, in the event the Services

                                                                              13
<PAGE>

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      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
      $6,927 and $32,377 for the three months ended November 30, 1999 and for
      the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999, respectively.

   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 $1,300 and $6,200 for
      the three months ended November 30, 1999 and for the fiscal year ended
      August 31, 1999, respectively.

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. Morgan Tax Exempt Money Market Fund (one of the series constituting part of
J.P. Morgan Funds, hereafter referred to as the "fund") at November 30, 1999,
and the results of its operations for the three months ended November 30, 1999
and for the year ended August 31, 1999, the changes in its net assets for the
three months ended November 30, 1999 and for each of the two years in the period
ended August 31, 1999 and the financial highlights for the three months ended
November 30, 1999 and for each of the five years in the period ended August 31,
1999, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States. 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States,
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 provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

THE TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 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 no-load 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. At a
meeting on November 12, 1998, the trustees elected to change the portfolios
fiscal year end from August 31 to November 30.

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) The portfolio has an Investment Advisory Agreement with J.P. Morgan
      Investment Management Inc. ("JPMIM"), an affiliate of Morgan Guaranty
      Trust Company of New York ("Morgan"), and a wholly owned subsidiary of
      J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated ("J.P. Morgan"). Under the terms of the
      agreement, the portfolio pays JPMIM 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. For the three months ended November 30, 1999 and
      for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999, such fees amounted to $760,119
      and $3,052,997, respectively.

   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

38
<PAGE>
THE TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOVEMBER 30, 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 three months ended November 30, 1999 and for
      the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999, the fee for these services amounted
      to $4,090 and $20,175, respectively.

   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 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 three months ended November 30, 1999 and for the fiscal year ended
      August 31, 1999, the fee for these services amounted to $128,236 and
      $542,467, respectively.

   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 $8,727 and $46,121 for the three months ended November 30,
      1999 and for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999, respectively.

   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 $1,700 and $8,800 for the three months ended
      November 30, 1999 and for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1999,
      respectively.

                                                                              39

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 November 30, 1999, and the results of its operations for the
three months ended November 30, 1999 and for the year ended August 31, 1999, the
changes in its net assets for the three months ended November 30, 1999 and for
each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 1999 and the supplementary
data for the three months ended November 30, 1999 and for each of the five years
in the period ended August 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States. These financial statements and
financial highlights (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 auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States, 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
November 30, 1999 by correspondence with the custodian, provide a reasonable
basis for the opinion expressed above.
