1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The New York Total Return Bond Portfolio (the "Portfolio") is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a non-diversified, open-end
management investment company which was organized as a trust under the laws of
the State of New York. The Portfolio commenced operations on April 11, 1994. The
Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of
beneficial interests in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the
Portfolio:
a)Portfolio securities are valued by an outside independent pricing service
approved by the Trustees. The value of each security for which readily
available market quotations exist is based on a decision as to the
broadest and most representative market for such security. The value of
such security will be based either on the last sale price on a national
securities exchange, or, in the absence of recorded sales, at the readily
available closing bid price on such exchanges, or at the quoted bid price
in the over-the-counter market. Because of the large number of municipal
bond issues outstanding and the varying maturity dates, coupons and risk
factors applicable to each issuer's bonds, no readily available market
quotations exist for most municipal securities. Securities or other assets
for which market quotations are not readily available are valued in
accordance with procedures established by the Portfolio's Trustees. Such
procedures include the use of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and
type, indications as to values from dealers, and general market
conditions. All portfolio securities with a remaining maturity of less
than 60 days are valued by the amortized cost method.
b)The Portfolio incurred organization expenses in the amount of $11,473.
These costs were deferred and are being amortized by the Portfolio on a
straight-line basis over a five-year period from the commencement of
operations.
c)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.
d)The Portfolio intends to be treated as a partnership for federal income
tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Portfolio will be taxable 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.

2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
a)The Portfolio has an investment advisory agreement with Morgan Guaranty
Trust Company of New York ("Morgan"). Under the terms of the investment
advisory agreement, the Portfolio pays Morgan a fee at an annual rate of
0.30% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. For the six months
ended September 30, 1995, this fee amounted to $107,385.
b)The Portfolio retains Signature Broker-Dealer Services, Inc. ("Signature")
to serve as Administrator and exclusive placement agent. Signature
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 Portfolio's
officers affiliated with Signature. The agreement provides for a fee to be
paid to Signature at an annual fee rate determined by the following
schedule: 0.01% of the first $1 billion of the aggregate average daily net
assets of the Portfolio and the other portfolios subject to the
Administrative Services Agreement, 0.008% of the next $2 billion of such
net assets, 0.006% of the next $2 billion of such net assets, and 0.004%
of such net assets in excess of $5 billion. The daily equivalent of the
fee rate is applied daily to the net assets of the Fund. For the six
months ended September 30, 1995, Signature's fee for these services
amounted to $2,144.
c)During the six months ended September 30, 1995, the Portfolio had a
Financial and Fund Accounting Services Agreement ("Services Agreement")
with Morgan under which Morgan received a fee, based on the percentages
described below, for overseeing certain aspects of the administration and
operation of the Portfolio which was also designed to provide an expense
limit for certain expenses of the Portfolio. The fee was calculated at
0.10% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets up to $200 million,
0.05% of the next $200 million of average daily net assets, and 0.03% of
average daily net assets thereafter. For the six months ended September
30, 1995, the fee for these services amounted to $6,529. Effective
September 1, 1995, the Services Agreement was terminated and an interim
agreement was entered into between the Portfolio and Morgan, which
provides for the continuation of the oversight services that were outlined
under the prior agreement and that Morgan shall bear all of its expenses
incurred in connection with these services.
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 $3,090 for the six months ended September 30, 1995.
e)An aggregate annual fee of $65,000 is paid to each Trustee for serving as
Trustee of The Pierpont Funds, The JPM Institutional Funds, and their
corresponding Portfolios and The Series Portfolio. The Trustees' Fees and
Expenses shown in the financial statements represent the Portfolio's
allocated portion of these total fees and expenses. The Trustee who serves
as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of these Funds and Portfolios also
serves as Chairman of Group and received

compensation and employee benefits from Group in his role as Group's

in the Fund Services Fee shown in the financial statements was $400.
