1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Disciplined Equity Portfolio (the "Portfolio") is one of eight subtrusts
(portfolios) comprising The Series Portfolio (the "Series Portfolio"). The
Series Portfolio is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the "Act"), as a no-load open-end management investment company which
was organized as a trust under the laws of the State of New York on June 24,
1994. The Portfolio commenced operations on December 30, 1996. The Portfolio's
investment objective is to provide a high total return from a broadly
diversified portfolio of equity securities. 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)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 average of readily available closing bid
and asked prices on such exchanges. Securities listed on a foreign
exchange are valued at the last quoted sale price available before the
time when net assets are valued. Unlisted securities are valued at the
average of the quoted bid and asked prices in the over-the-counter market.
Securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily
available are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures
established by the Portfolio's Trustees. Such procedures include the use
of independent pricing services, which use prices based upon yields or
prices of securities 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)Securities transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. Dividend
income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or as of the time that the
relevant ex-dividend date and amount become known. 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)Futures -- A futures contract is an agreement to purchase/sell a specified
quantity of an underlying instrument at a specified future date or to
make/receive a cash payment based on the value of a securities index. The
price at which the purchase and sale will take place is fixed when the
Portfolio enters into the contract. Upon entering into such a contract the
Portfolio is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or
liquid securities equal to the minimum "initial margin" requirements of
the exchange. Pursuant to the contract, the Portfolio agrees to receive
from, or pay to, the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily
fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known
as "variation margin" and are recorded by the Portfolio as unrealized
gains or losses. When the contract is closed, the Portfolio records a
realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the
contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time when it was
closed. The Portfolio
28
<PAGE>
THE DISCIPLINED EQUITY PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
invests in futures contracts for the purpose of hedging its existing
portfolio securities, or securities the Portfolio intends to purchase,
against fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing market
interest rates or securities movements. The use of futures transactions
involves the risk of imperfect correlation of movements in the price of
futures contracts, interest rates and the underlying hedged assets and the
possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
Futures transactions during the period December 30, 1996 (commencement of
operations) to May 31, 1997 are summarized as follows:

d)The Portfolio intends to be treated as a partnership for federal income
tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Portfolio will be subject to
taxation 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.
e)The Portfolio's custodian takes possession of the collateral pledged for
investments in repurchase agreements on behalf of the Portfolio. It is the
policy of the Portfolio to value the underlying collateral daily on a
mark-to-market basis to determine that the value, including accrued
interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price plus accrued interest.
In the event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Portfolio has
the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in
satisfaction of the obligation. Under certain circumstances, in the event
of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization
and/or retention of the collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal
proceedings.
f)The Portfolio incurred organization expenses in the amount of $10,000.
Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York ("Morgan") has agreed to pay the
organization expenses of the Portfolio. The Portfolio has agreed to
reimburse Morgan for these costs which are being deferred and amortized on
a straight-line basis over a period not to exceed five years beginning
with the commencement of operations of the Portfolio.
g)Expenses incurred by the Series Portfolio with respect to any two or more
portfolios in the Series Portfolio are allocated in proportion to the net
assets of each portfolio in the Series Portfolio, except where allocations
of direct expenses to each portfolio can otherwise be made fairly.
Expenses directly attributable to a portfolio are charged to that
portfolio.

2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
a)The Portfolio has an Investment Advisory Agreement with Morgan. Under the
terms of the agreement, the Portfolio pays Morgan at an annual rate of
0.35% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. For the period from
December 30, 1996 (commencement of operations) to May 31, 1997, such fees
amounted to $73,985.
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
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
JPM Pierpont Funds, The JPM Institutional Funds, the Portfolio and the
other portfolios (the "Master Portfolios") in which The JPM Pierpont Funds
and The JPM Institutional Funds invest , JPM Series Trust and JPM Series
Trust II. For the period from December 30, 1996 (commencement of
operations) to May 31, 1997, the fee for these services amounted to $520.
c)The Portfolio has an Administrative Services Agreement (the "Services
Agreement") with Morgan under which Morgan is responsible for overseeing
certain aspects of the administration and operation of the Portfolio.
Under the Services Agreement, the Portfolio had agreed to pay Morgan a fee
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 JPM 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 total net assets of the Master
Portfolios, other investors in the Master Portfolios for which Morgan
provides similar services, The JPM Pierpont Funds, The JPM Institutional
Funds, and JPM Series Trust. For the period from December 30, 1996
(commencement of operations) to May 31, 1997, the fee for these services
amounted to $6,614.
In addition, Morgan has agreed to reimburse the Portfolio to the extent
necessary to maintain the total operating expenses of the Portfolio at no
more than 0.45% of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio through
February 28, 1998. For the period from December 30, 1996 (commencement of
operations) to May 31, 1997, Morgan has agreed to reimburse the Portfolio
$68,970 for expenses under this agreement.
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 $607 for the period from December 30, 1996 (commencement of
operations) to May 31, 1997.

e)An aggregate annual fee of $75,000 is paid to each Trustee for serving as
a Trustee of The JPM Pierpont Funds, The JPM Institutional Funds, the
Master Portfolios and JPM Series Trust. The Trustees' Fees and Expenses
shown in the financial statements represents the Portfolio's allocated
portion of the total fees and expenses. Prior to April 1, 1997, the
aggregate annual Trustee fee was $65,000. The Portfolio's Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer also serves as Chairman of Group and received
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 $122.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees and Investors of
The Disciplined Equity Portfolio
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operation and of
changes in net assets and the supplementary data present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of The Disciplined Equity Portfolio (one of the
portfolios comprising part of The Series Portfolio, hereafter referred to as the
"Portfolio") at May 31, 1997, and the results of its operations, the changes in
its net assets and the supplementary data for the period December 30, 1996
(commencement of operations) to May 31, 1997, 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 audit. We conducted our audit 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 audit, which included
confirmation of securities at May 31, 1997 by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers and the application of alternative auditing procedures where
confirmations from brokers were not received, provides a reasonable basis for
the opinion expressed above.
