JPMORGAN U.S. MID AND SMALL CAP EQUITY FUNDS PRESIDENT'S LETTER FEBRUARY 17, 2004 [PHOTO OF GEORGE C.W. GATCH] "BETTER-THAN-EXPECTED CORPORATE PROFITS, LOW INTEREST RATES, AND POSITIVE ECONOMIC DATA - ALL HELPED TO SUSTAIN THE RALLY." DEAR SHAREHOLDER: We are pleased to present this annual report for the JPMorgan Mid and Small Cap Equity Funds. Inside, you will find information detailing the performance of the Funds for the year ended December 31, 2003, along with reports from the Portfolio Managers. PROFIT INCREASES END THREE-YEAR BEAR MARKET While the market declined throughout most of the first quarter of 2003 due to geo-political and economic uncertainty, by mid-March it began a rally that would continue until the end of the year. The rally began as coalition forces prepared to take military action in Iraq and acquired momentum in the following months. Utterances by the U.S. Federal Reserve confirming its determination to avoid deflation and to nurture growth (leading ultimately to a 1/4-point rate cut in late June) fueled the rally. In addition, Congress approved the Bush Administration's $350 billion package of tax cuts in an attempt to boost consumer demand. By the fourth quarter, there was a clear trend of recovering economic growth, with third-quarter GDP growth reported at a surprisingly buoyant 7.2%. Better-than-expected corporate profits, low interest rates, and positive economic data -- including evidence of manufacturing growth and business spending -- all helped to sustain the rally. DIVERGENT PERFORMANCES The market's rise was far from uniform, however. While the broad-based S&P 500 Index rose 28.7% during the year, the greatest gains were among the technology and small cap stocks that surged on a wave of market liquidity. The technology-laden NASDAQ climbed 50.8% and the Russell 2000 Index of small stocks 47.3%. What the indices do not show is that the biggest increases of all were among low quality, non-earning stocks that investors had chosen not to own in the bear market. For fund managers, 2003 was a year when great gains were made for investors, although it was sometimes difficult to outperform benchmark indices. Fund managers prefer to invest in the higher quality stocks, with sustainable earnings growth, which tend to outperform over time. OUTLOOK As we enter 2004, investors who stayed invested through the trough of the bear market have good reason to feel vindicated. The question now is whether equities will continue their upward path. Our view is that they will, although we do not anticipate gains of the same magnitude as 2003. From an economic perspective, there is a hint of a "Goldilocks" economy (not too hot, not too cold, but just right), with a healthy combination of strong earnings growth and low inflation. Furthermore, election years have historically seen substantial rises in equity prices, with small company stocks outperforming. In this case, 2003's enormous fiscal and monetary stimuli have primed the economy. IMPORTANT MERGER NEWS As you may know, JPMorgan Chase and Bank One have agreed to merge by mid-2004, subject to approval by the Firms' shareholders and certain regulatory agencies. We feel the merger is compelling both strategically and financially. The new JPMorgan Chase will have top-tier positions in both wholesale and retail financial services, an extensive client base and greater scale. We will have an extraordinarily talented team that shares common values and a strong client orientation. All of us at JPMorgan Fleming Asset Management would like to thank you for your investment. Should you have any questions, please contact us at the JPMorgan Funds Service Center at 1-800-348-4782. Sincerely, /s/ George C.W. Gatch George C.W. Gatch President JPMorgan Funds 2 JPMORGAN DYNAMIC SMALL CAP FUND AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2003 (UNAUDITED) FUND FACTS Fund Inception 5/19/1997 Fiscal Year End DECEMBER 31 Net Assets as of 12/31/2003 (In Millions) $ 191.4 Primary Benchmark S&P SMALL CAP 600 BARRA GROWTH INDEX
Q: HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM? A: JPMorgan Dynamic Small Cap Fund, which seeks capital growth over the long term, rose 39.04% (Select shares) in the year ended December 31, 2003. This compares with an appreciation of 37.32% for the S&P Small Cap 600 BARRA Growth Index, the Fund's benchmark. Q: WHY DID THE FUND PERFORM IN THIS WAY? A: The Fund outperformed its S&P Small Cap 600 BARRA Growth Index during an exceptionally strong year for small cap stocks. Strong stock selection drove performance relative to the benchmark, with the Health Services and Systems, Consumer Cyclical and Pharmaceutical sectors having the largest positive impact. In Health Services & Systems, Odyssey Healthcare, a provider of hospice services to terminally ill patients, surged during the year. The stock has benefited from strong fundamentals and positive Medicare Drug Benefit legislation that allowed hospice care to be maintained as a Medicare benefit. VCA Antech, an owner and operator of veterinary hospitals and labs, performed well as positive underlying fundamentals in the pet healthcare market led to robust earnings growth. Advanced Neuromodulation Systems Inc. ("ANSI"), a company that makes implanted medical devices that treat chronic pain, outperformed the sector, as measured by the benchmark. ANSI has benefited from several successful product cycles that have enabled the company to deliver better than expected earnings, record sales, and increased guidance. In the Pharmaceutical sector, a number of biotechnology companies performed well. Celgene Corporation, a maker of drugs to treat cancer and immunological diseases, was a positive contributor. The stock rallied following the release of positive results of a clinical study published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology regarding Celgene's lead cancer drug, Thalomid. Martek Biosciences benefited from its infant formula product cycle. Scios, a manufacturer of cardiovascular drugs, was acquired by Johnson & Johnson in February at a significant premium to its share price. In the Consumer Cyclical sector, post-secondary education providers, Career Education Corp. and Education Management Corp., led performance as they benefited from strong enrollment and tuition growth. Leather accessory manufacturer, Coach Inc., also outperformed the sector, as it continued to deliver strong sales. Two of the weakest sectors relative to the benchmark were Retail and Software and Services, where companies such as California Pizza Kitchen, Too Inc., Verisity Ltd., and Pinnacle Systems fell after reporting disappointing earnings. In Semiconductors, portfolio holdings rose substantially, but still trailed the sector, as the portfolio tended not to hold the low quality, non-earning stocks in the sector that led the rally. Q: HOW WAS THE FUND MANAGED? A: During the year, we increased our weightings in areas that we believe are positioned to benefit from an economic and market recovery. We increased weightings in technology, biotechnology and industrial manufacturing stocks throughout the 12 months. At year-end, the Fund had significant overweights in the Systems Hardware, Energy, Pharmaceuticals and Industrial Cyclical sectors. We funded these increases by reducing weightings in the Health Services and Systems and Finance sectors. 3 [CHART] PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS Consumer Goods & Services 27.0% Technology 26.3% Health Services & Systems 13.1% Industrial Products & Services 10.2% Pharmaceuticals 7.3% Finance & Insurance 7.1% Energy 6.0% Short-Term Investments 1.3% Telecommunications 0.8% REITs 0.5% Utilities 0.4%

Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. The Fund commenced operations on 5/19/97. Class A and Class B Shares were introduced on 5/19/97. Returns for the Select Shares prior to 4/5/99 (offering date of the Select Shares) are calculated using the historical expenses of the Class A Shares, which are higher than the expenses of the Select Shares. Returns for the Class C Shares prior to 1/7/98 (offering date of the Class C Shares) are calculated using the historical expenses of the Class A Shares, which are lower than the expenses of the Class C Shares. The graph illustrates comparative performance for $10,000 invested in Class A Shares of the JPMorgan Dynamic Small Cap Fund, S&P SmallCap 600/BARRA Growth Index, and Lipper Small-Cap Growth Funds Index from May 19, 1997 to December 31, 2003. The performance of the Fund assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains and includes a sales charge. The performance of the indices reflects an initial investment at the end of the month following the Fund's inception. The performance of the indices does not include a sales charge and has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains of the securities included in the benchmark. The S&P SmallCap 600/BARRA Growth Index is a capitalization-weighted index of all the stocks in the S&P SmallCap 600 Index with higher price-to-book ratios. The Lipper Small-Cap Growth Funds Index represents the total returns of the funds in the indicated category, as defined by Lipper, Inc. Investors cannot invest directly in an index. Class A Shares have a $2,500 minimum initial deposit and carry a 5.75% sales charge. Certain fees and expenses of the fund are currently being waived and reimbursed as described in the prospectus. Had the expenses not been subsidized or waived, returns would have been lower. Also all performance shown in this section does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or redemption of fund shares. 5 JPMORGAN MID CAP EQUITY FUND AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2003 (UNAUDITED) FUND FACTS Fund Inception 1/1/1997 Fiscal Year End DECEMBER 31 Net Assets as of 12/31/2003 (In Millions) $ 194.1 Primary Benchmark RUSSELL MID CAP EQUITY
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM? A. JPMorgan Mid Cap Equity Fund, which seeks long-term capital growth, rose 32.29% during the year ended December 31, 2003. This compares to a return of 40.08% return from the Russell Midcap(R) Index, the Fund's benchmark. Q. WHY DID THE FUND PERFORM THIS WAY? A. Against a backdrop of a quick end to formal war activity in Iraq, better-than-expected earnings results, substantial government tax cuts and evidence of a strong recovery, 2003 turned out to be a strong year for equity returns. The Fund participated in the market's rapid ascent, although results trailed the benchmark index, which recorded its best-ever calendar year return. All sectors posted positive returns in the period, with particularly strong stock selection in the Financials sector. Weaker stock selection in the Information Technology and Consumer Discretionary sectors, however, offset the stronger results and led to the Fund's underperformance. The portfolio's top detractors were Jones Apparel, a leading manufacturer of brand name clothing and accessories, and Brinker International, operator of Chili's Grill & Bar and other restaurant chains. Shares of Jones Apparel declined after management announced in January that they were in discussions regarding a possible restructuring of its license agreements with Polo Ralph Lauren. We sold our position in the company due to the uncertainty over how the issue will be resolved, and the potential financial impact of the resolution. Shares of Brinker International declined as investor sentiment turned negative due to rising industry costs and adverse weather conditions earlier in the year. Following this announcement we eliminated our position. The portfolio's top contributor was T. Rowe Price Group, a leading provider of no-load mutual funds. As the equity markets rebounded and mutual fund inflows turned strongly positive, investors bid up the price of many asset management companies. We believe increased fund inflows, plus the appreciation of existing fund assets, will have a direct, positive impact on T. Rowe's revenues, which are tied to the overall level of assets under management. Q. HOW WAS THE FUND MANAGED? A. The portfolio managers' focus remains on stock selection, believing that quality companies -- regardless of their economic sector -- trading at attractive valuations will outperform in the long-term. The portfolio managers sought to maintain significant sector diversification in the portfolio and to avoid any large bets contingent on macroeconomic or sector trends. 6 [CHART] PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS Consumer Goods & Services 23.0% Technology 21.2% Finance & Insurance 17.8% Industrial Products & Services 8.4% Energy 6.5% Health Services & Systems 6.2% REITs 4.5% Pharmaceuticals 3.7% Utilities 3.5% Telecommunications 3.3% Short-Term Investments 1.9%

Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM? A. JPMorgan Mid Cap Growth Fund, which seeks to provide long-term growth from a portfolio of mid-capitalization stocks, rose 37.53% (Class A shares, without sales charge) in the year ended December 31, 2003. This compares with a gain of 42.72% for the Russell Midcap(R) Growth Index, the Fund's benchmark. Q. WHY DID THE FUND PERFORM IN THIS WAY? A. The Fund posted a solid gain for the period, but results trailed its benchmark. All sectors posted positive returns in the period, with particularly strong stock selection in the Producer Durable and Auto and Transportation sectors. Weaker stock selection in the Consumer Discretionary and Health Care sectors, however, offset the stronger results in those sectors and led to the Fund's underperformance. The portfolio's top detractors were casino operator Harrah's Entertainment, and hospital operator Triad Hospitals. Shares of Harrah's Entertainment declined early in 2003 after management reported disappointing quarterly earnings. The casino operator said market and weather-related sales weakness in certain areas negatively impacted earnings. Shares of Triad Hospitals declined as investor sentiment turned negative after the company withdrew its previously issued earnings forecasts and increased its bad debt provision. Following these announcements, we eliminated our positions in both companies. The portfolio's top contributor for the period was Omnicare, the provider of pharmacy services to long-term care institutions. Omnicare posted higher profit on strong demand and the acquisition of NCS Healthcare. The company is uniquely positioned as a comprehensive provider of pharmaceutical care to the nation's growing elderly population. Electronic components manufacturer Vishay Intertechnology also contributed strongly to the Fund's total return as the sector rebounded on signs of a recovery. Vishay's breadth of product offering should benefit it considerably as trends improve further in 2004. Q. HOW WAS THE FUND MANAGED? A. Given the range of events the market encountered in 2003, the portfolio manager has sought to maintain significant sector diversification in the portfolio and to avoid any large bets contingent on macroeconomic or sector trends. The portfolio manager's focus remains on stock selection, believing that quality growth companies -- regardless of their economic sector -- will perform well over the long-term. During the period we did increase the Fund's weighting in the Technology sector, where we added names such as Lucent Technologies, Corning and Juniper Networks. To fund these new names we reduced the portfolio's exposure in the Consumer Discretionary sector, by eliminating Retail stocks that had disappointed such as TJX, Circuit City, and Office Depot. 9 [CHART] PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS Technology 39.4% Consumer Goods & Services 25.5% Health Services & Systems 10.6% Pharmaceuticals 7.3% Finance & Insurance 6.7% Energy 5.2% Industrial Products & Services 2.8% Telecommunications 2.3% Short-Term Investments 0.2%

Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM? A. JPMorgan Mid Cap Value Fund, which seeks growth from capital appreciation, rose 30.62% (Institutional shares) during the year ended December 31, 2003. This compares with a gain of 38.06% for the Russell MidCap(R) Value Index, the Fund's benchmark. Q. WHY DID THE FUND PERFORM THIS WAY? A. Although the Fund participated in the market's climb, results trailed the benchmark for the period. In a period when all sectors of the fund and benchmark registered gains, it was the more aggressive, high beta stocks that led the benchmark higher. The Fund's underweight position in the Information Technology sector and large cash position were the primary drags on performance. Additionally, the Fund's Consumer Discretionary holdings, which rose sharply during the period, performed poorly. On the plus side many of the Fund's core Financial Service holdings performed well during the year as improving economic conditions, net interest margin stabilization, rebounding equity markets and expectations of industry consolidation, aided the sector. Even though the asset management companies have enjoyed the vibrant recovery, the regional banks and mortgage companies have also managed to keep pace. In particular, Golden West Financial, MGIC Investment, T. Rowe Price, North Fork Bancorp, and TCF Financial were amongst the top contributors to the portfolio's total return during the year. Despite the Fund's strong performance a few of the portfolio's holdings did not fare well. The top detractor to the Fund's total return was Black & Decker, which continues to face a number of challenges including increased private label competition in its power tool business. As a result of these issues, we sold our position in the company early in the year before the market recovery. Q. HOW WAS THE FUND MANAGED? A. Despite the Fund's solid gains for the period, performance relative to the market was somewhat muted by lack of exposure to the highly cyclical and/or highly leveraged segments of the market that were the driving force behind the rally in U.S. equities in 2003. As is often the case, our overriding focus on quality and value -- which generally avoids investments in highly cyclical and leveraged companies -- works to smooth out portfolio performance at sharp inflection points in the market such as the one just experienced. 12 [CHART] PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS Finance & Insurance 25.7% Consumer Goods & Services 23.0% Industrial Products & Services 12.7% Energy 8.3% Technology 7.2% Short-Term Investments 6.1% Telecommunications 4.3% Utilities 4.3% REITs 4.1% Health Services & Systems 3.1% Pharmaceuticals 1.2%

Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. The Fund commenced operations on 11/13/97. Returns for the Select Shares prior to 10/31/01 (offering date of the Select Shares) are calculated using the historical expenses of the Institutional Shares, which are lower than the expenses of the Select Shares. Returns for the Class A, Class B, and Class C Shares prior to 4/30/01 (offering date of the Class A, Class B, and Class C Shares) are calculated using the historical expenses of the Institutional Shares, which are lower than the expenses of the Class A Shares, Class B and C Shares. The graph illustrates comparative performance for $3,000,000 invested in Institutional Shares of the JPMorgan Mid Cap Value Fund, Russell MidCap Value Index, S&P MidCap 400/BARRA Value Index, and Lipper Mid-Cap Value Funds Index from November 13, 1997 to December 31, 2003. The performance of the Fund assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains and does not include a sales charge. The performance of the indices reflects an initial investment at the end of the month following the Fund's inception. The performance of the indices does not include a sales charge and has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains of the securities included in the benchmark. The Russell MidCap Value Index is an unmanaged, capitalization weighted, price only index that measures the performance of those companies included in the Russell MidCap Index that have lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth rates. The S&P MidCap 400/BARRA Value Index is an unmanaged, capitalization weighted, price only index of 400 stocks that measure performance of the mid-sized company segment of the U.S. market. The S&P MidCap 400/BARRA Value Index is a subset of the MidCap 400 Index, which contains companies with lower price-to-book ratios. The Lipper Mid-Cap Value Funds Index represents the total returns of the funds in the indicated category, as defined by Lipper, Inc. Investors cannot invest directly in an index. Institutional Shares have a $3,000,000 minimum initial deposit and carry no sales charge. Certain fees and expenses of the Fund are currently being waived and reimbursed as described in the prospectus. Had the expenses not been subsidized or waived, returns would have been lower. Also all performance shown in this section does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or redemption of fund shares. 14 JP MORGAN SMALL CAP EQUITY FUND AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2003 (UNAUDITED) FUND FACTS Fund Inception 12/20/1994 Fiscal Year End DECEMBER 31 Net Assets as of 12/31/2003 (In Millions) $ 746.5 Primary Benchmark S&P SMALL CAP 600 INDEX
Q: HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM? A: JPMorgan Small Cap Equity Fund, which seeks capital growth over the long term, rose 36.37% (Class A shares, net of fees) during the year ended December 31, 2003. This compares with an appreciation of 38.78% by the S&P Small Cap 600 Index, the Fund's benchmark. Q: WHY DID THE FUND PERFORM THIS WAY? A: The Fund delivered strong absolute performance in 2003, although it trailed its benchmark. In the rally that dominated the 2003 equity market, it was low-quality, non-earning, micro-cap stocks that led the market for most of the year. Our bias toward owning high-quality, profitable, relatively large small cap companies hurt relative performance during the year. Stock selection added to relative performance in a number of areas, most significantly in the Health Services and Systems and Pharmaceuticals sectors. In Health Services and Systems, our holdings gained 60% during the year. Key holdings such as managed care provider, Coventry Health Care, medical device manufacturer, Inamed Corp, and contact lens maker, Cooper Companies, drove the sector's outperformance. In Pharmaceuticals, Scios, a biotechnology company that makes drugs to treat cardiovascular diseases and chronic pain, contributed to performance when it was acquired by Johnson & Johnson. Stock selection in the Industrial Cyclical and Basic Materials sectors detracted from relative performance. As the most cyclical stocks led the rally, our less cyclical holdings underperformed. Our less cyclical holdings included Alliant Techsystems, a maker of defense equipment; Waste Connections, a waste collection company; and EMCOR Group, a provider of construction and facilities services. In the Basic Materials sector, the portfolio suffered from being underweight in the metals and mining industry as rising commodity prices and the weak dollar drove a robust rally. In addition, our holdings in the Specialty Chemical industry sector such as Scotts Company, Georgia Gulf Corp., Spartech Corp. and Albemarle Corp. all underperformed. The stock price of Cambrex Corp., a manufacturer of specialty chemicals used to make pharmaceuticals, was the largest detractor, declining 16% during the year after reducing its profit forecast in early April. Q: HOW WAS THE FUND MANAGED? A: During the year, we increased our weightings in areas that we believe are positioned to benefit from an economic and market recovery, such as technology and industrial cyclical stocks. At year-end, the Fund had significant overweights in the Systems Hardware and Industrial Cyclical sectors. We were underweight in the Basic Materials and Finance sectors. 15 [CHART] PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS Consumer Goods & Services 28.6% Technology 19.5% Industrial Products & Services 18.1% Finance & Insurance 11.5% Health Services & Systems 8.9% Energy 6.3% Utilities 2.5% Pharmaceuticals 2.0% REITs 1.7% Telecommunications 0.5% Short-Term Investments 0.4%

Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. The Fund commenced operations on 12/20/94. Returns for the Select Shares prior to 5/7/96 (offering date of the Select Shares) are calculated using the historical expenses of the Class A Shares, which are higher than the expenses of the Select Shares. Returns for the Class B Shares prior to 3/28/95 (offering date of the Class B Shares) are calculated using the historical expenses of the Class A Shares, which are lower than the expenses of the Class B Shares. The graph illustrates comparative performance for $10,000 invested in Class A Shares of the JPMorgan Small Cap Equity Fund, S&P SmallCap 600 Index and Lipper Small-Cap Core Funds Index from December 20, 1994 to December 31, 2003. The performance of the Fund assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains and includes a sales charge. The performance of the indices reflects an initial investment at the end of the month following the Fund's inception. The performance of the indices does not include a sales charge and has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains of the securities included in the benchmark. The S&P SmallCap 600 Index includes 600 stocks of small U.S. Companies chosen for market size, liquidity and industry group representation. The Lipper Small-Cap Core Funds Index represents the total returns of the funds in the indicated category, as defined by Lipper, Inc. Investors cannot invest directly in an index. Class A Shares have a $2,500 minimum initial deposit and carry a 5.75% sales charge. Certain fees and expenses of the Fund are currently being waived and reimbursed as described in the prospectus. Had the expenses not been subsidized or waived, returns would have been lower. Also all performance shown in this section does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or redemption of fund shares. 17 JPMORGAN SMALL CAP GROWTH FUND AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2003 (UNAUDITED) FUND FACTS Fund Inception 11/14/1997 Fiscal Year End DECEMBER 31 Net Assets as of 12/31/2003 (In Millions) $ 4.4 Primary Benchmark RUSSSELL 2000 GROWTH INDEX
Q: HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM? A: JPMorgan Small Cap Growth Fund, which seeks growth from capital appreciation, rose 40.25% (Institutional shares) during the year ended December 31, 2003. This compares with a gain of 48.53% for the Russell 2000(R) Growth Index, the Fund's benchmark. Q: WHY DID THE FUND PERFORM THIS WAY? A: The Fund participated in the market's rapid ascent, although results trailed the benchmark index. All sectors posted positive returns in the period, with particularly strong stock selection in the Utilities sector. Weaker stock selection in the Healthcare sector, however, offset the stronger results and led to the Fund's underperformance. Medcath was the portfolio's top detractor in the period, disappointing investors with lackluster results earlier in the year. The company, which develops hospitals focused on providing cardiovascular care, reported earnings that met expectations but reflected moderate deterioration in several important operating trends. We believed the lower-quality earnings raised the possibility that it may become increasingly difficult for the company to achieve ongoing operational efficiencies. Additionally, Daisytek International, the leading wholesale distributor of consumable computer and non-paper office supplies, also detracted from the portfolio's performance. The company reported lower than expected profits for its fiscal third quarter, citing a heavy cost burden associated with the company's growth initiatives and a looming shortfall in working capital. As a result of these announcements, both positions were sold from the portfolio. Global Imaging Systems was the portfolio's top contributor for the period. Shares rose strongly after the company reported its eleventh consecutive quarter in which earnings per share exceeded consensus estimates, driven by a combination of strong revenues and gross margins. The company provides sales, service, and support of copiers, faxes, PCs and PC networks, printers, and document imaging and storage equipment. Another top contributor was Packeteer, the provider of bandwidth management software. The sluggish economy has been a key driver of growth for the bandwidth management industry as customers seek low-cost solutions to improve network capacity in a time when expensive network upgrades are not possible. Q: HOW WAS THE FUND MANAGED? A: We continue to focus on maintaining our longstanding philosophy of making long-term investments in small cap growth companies with leading competitive positions and strong management. During the period, we did increase the Fund's weighting in the Technology sector, where we added names such as Artisan Components, Aeroflex and Lawson Software. To fund these new names we reduced the portfolio's exposure in the Financial Services sector, by eliminating stocks that had disappointed such as AmeriCredit and Brown & Brown as well as taking profits from those that performed extremely well such as Checkfree and Chelsea Properties. 18 [CHART] PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS Technology 29.6% Consumer Goods & Services 20.0% Health Services & Systems 11.3% Industrial Products & Services 9.2% Finance & Insurance 7.8% Pharmaceuticals 7.6% Energy 5.2% Telecommunications 4.5% Short-Term Investments 3.8% REITs 1.0%

Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Fund commenced operations on 11/14/97. Returns for the Select Shares prior to 10/31/01 (offering date of the Select Shares) are calculated using the historical expenses of the Institutional Shares, which are lower than the expenses of the Select Shares. Returns for the Class A, Class B, and Class C Shares prior to 4/30/01 (offering date of the Class A, Class B, and Class C Shares) are calculated using the historical expenses of the Institutional Shares, which are lower than the expenses of the Class A, Class B, and Class C Shares. The graph illustrates comparative performance for $3,000,000 invested in Institutional Shares of the JPMorgan Small Cap Growth Fund, Russell 2000 Index, Russell 2000 Growth Index and Lipper Small-Cap Growth Funds Index from November 14, 1997 to December 31, 2003. The performance of the Fund assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains and does not include a sales charge. The performance of the indices reflects an initial investment at the end of the month following the Fund's inception. The performance of the indices does not include a sales charge and has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains of the securities included in the benchmark. The Russell 2000 Index is an unmanaged, capitalization weighted price only index, which is comprised of 2000 of the smallest stocks (on the basis of capitalization) in the Russell 3000 Index. The Russell 2000 Growth Index measures the performance of those Russell 2000 companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth rates. The Lipper Small-Cap Growth Funds Index represents the total returns of the funds in the indicated category, as defined by Lipper, Inc. Investors cannot invest directly in an index. Institutional Shares have a $3,000,000 minimum initial deposit and carry no sales charge. Certain fees and expenses of the Fund are currently being waived and reimbursed as described in the prospectus. Had the expenses not been subsidized or waived, returns would have been lower. Also all performance shown in this section does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or redemption of fund shares. 20 JPMORGAN TRUST SMALL CAP EQUITY FUND AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2003 (UNAUDITED) FUND FACTS Fund Inception 1/1/1997 Fiscal Year End DECEMBER 31 Net Assets as of 12/31/2003 (In Millions) $ 386.0 Primary Benchmark S&P SMALL CAP 600 INDEX
Q: HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM? A: JPMorgan Trust Small Cap Equity Fund, which seeks capital growth over the long term, rose 35.20% during the year ended December 31, 2003. This compares with an appreciation of 38.78% by the S&P Small Cap 600 Index, the Fund's benchmark. Q: WHY DID THE FUND PERFORM THIS WAY? A: The Fund delivered strong absolute performance in 2003, although it trailed its benchmark. In the rally that dominated the 2003 equity market, it was low-quality, non-earning, micro-cap stocks that led the market for most of the year. Our bias toward owning high-quality, profitable, relatively large small cap companies hurt relative performance during the year. Stock selection added to relative performance in a number of areas, most significantly in the Health Services and Systems and Pharmaceuticals sectors. In Health Services and Systems, our holdings gained 60% during the year. Key holdings such as managed care provider, Coventry Health Care, medical device manufacturer, Inamed Corp, and contact lens maker, Cooper Companies, drove this outperformance. In Pharmaceuticals, Scios, a biotechnology company that makes drugs to treat cardiovascular diseases and chronic pain, contributed to performance when it was acquired by Johnson & Johnson. Given the strong rally in the market, our large cash position was a major detractor from relative performance. Stock selection in the Industrial Cyclical and Basic Materials sectors also negatively impacted relative performance. As the most cyclical stocks led the rally, our less cyclical holdings underperformed. Our less cyclical holdings included Alliant Techsystems, a maker of defense equipment; Waste Connections, a waste collection company; and EMCOR Group, a provider of construction and facilities services. In the Basic Materials sector, the portfolio suffered from being underweight in the metals and mining industry stocks as rising commodity prices and the weak dollar drove a robust rally. In addition, our holdings in the specialty chemical industry sector, such as Scotts Company, Georgia Gulf Corp., Spartech Corp. and Albemarle Corp. all underperformed. The stock price of Cambrex Corp., a manufacturer of specialty chemicals used to make pharmaceuticals, was the largest detractor, declining 16% during the year after reducing its profit forecast in early April. Q: HOW WAS THE FUND MANAGED? A: During the year, we increased our weightings in areas that we believe are positioned to benefit from an economic and market recovery, such as technology and industrial cyclical stocks. At year-end, the Fund had significant overweights in the Systems Hardware and Industrial Cyclical sectors. We were underweight in the Basic Materials and Finance sectors. 21 [CHART] PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS Consumer Goods & Services 27.7% Technology 19.9% Industrial Products & Services 18.4% Finance & Insurance 11.8% Health Services & Systems 9.2% Energy 5.9% Utilities 2.5% Pharmaceuticals 1.8% REITs 1.7% Short-Term Investments 1.1%

Source: Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. The fund commenced operations on 1/1/97. Returns for the Fund prior to 1/1/97 (offering date of the Shares) are calculated using the historical expenses at the level indicated (absent reimbursements) in the Expense Summary for the Fund as disclosed in the Prospectus. The account was not registered with the SEC and was not subject to investment restrictions of registered mutual funds. If the account had been registered, performance may have been adversely affected. The graph illustrates comparative performance for $1,000,000 invested in the JPMorgan Trust Small Cap Equity Fund, S&P SmallCap 600 Index, and Lipper Small-Cap Core Funds Index from December 31, 1993 to December 31, 2003. The performance of the Fund assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains. The performance of the indices does not include a sales charge and has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains of the securities included in the benchmark. The S&P SmallCap 600 Index includes 600 stocks of small U.S. Companies chosen for market size, liquidity and industry group representation. The Lipper Small-Cap Core Funds Index represents the total returns of the funds in the indicated category, as defined by Lipper, Inc. Investor's cannot invest directly in an index. Select Shares have a $1,000,000 minimum initial deposit and carry no sales charge. Certain fees and expenses of the Fund are currently being waived and reimbursed as described in the prospectus. Had the expenses not been subsidized or waived, returns would have been lower. Also all performance shown in this section does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or redemption of fund shares. 23 JPMORGAN U.S. SMALL COMPANY FUND AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2003 (UNAUDITED) FUND FACTS Fund Inception 11/4/1993 Fiscal Year End DECEMBER 31 Net Assets as of 12/31/2003 (In Millions) $ 339.5 Primary Benchmark RUSSELL 2000 INDEX
Q: HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM? A: JPMorgan U.S. Small Company Fund, which seeks to provide high total return from a portfolio of small company stocks, had a return of 40.03% (Institutional shares) during the year ended December 31, 2003. This compares to a 47.25% return from the Russell 2000 Index, the Fund's benchmark. Q: WHY DID THE FUND PERFORM THIS WAY? A: The Fund underperformed its benchmark for the year, as both stock selection and sector weightings detracted from performance. Stock selection within Finance, Industrial Cyclical and Pharmaceuticals positively contributed to performance, while Software and Services, Health Services and Systems and Systems Hardware detracted from it. An overweight in Pharmaceuticals contributed, while an underweight in Basic Materials sectors had a negative impact on performance. Main stock contributors for the year were Unova Inc., Wabash National Corp. and Doral Financial Corp., while main detractors included Emcor Group Inc., CTI Molecular Imaging and First Horizon Pharmaceuticals. Q: HOW WAS THE FUND MANAGED? A: The Fund utilizes active stock selection, within a systematic valuation process. This strategy invests in a diversified portfolio of 200 to 250 U.S. small capitalization stocks, with the aim of limiting the style or theme volatility that characterizes many small-cap fund competitors. As such, it is managed to maintain risk characteristics similar to those of the Russell 2000 index. The portfolio management team continued to focus on the bottom-up selection of attractively valued small-cap companies with strong fundamentals. Investment decisions are made based on market conditions, analysts' input and the portfolio managers' own quantitative and qualitative analysis. 24 [CHART] PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS Technology 22.0% Consumer Goods & Services 18.0% Industrial Products & Services 17.3% Finance & Insurance 14.6% Pharmaceuticals 8.5% Health Services & Systems 5.7% REITs 5.4% Energy 3.7% Telecommunications 2.5% Utilities 1.9% Short-Term Investments 0.3% Fixed Income 0.1%

Q: HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM? A: JPMorgan U.S. Small Company Opportunities Fund, which seeks to provide long-term growth through a portfolio of small company growth stocks, rose 28.13% during the year ended December 31, 2003. This compares with a gain of 48.53% for the Russell 2000(R) Growth Index, the Fund's benchmark. Q: WHY DID THE FUND PERFORM THIS WAY? A: The Fund participated in the market's rapid ascent, although results trailed the benchmark index. All sectors posted positive returns in the period, however, weaker stock selection in the Consumer Discretionary sector led to the Fund's underperformance. Alloy Online was the portfolio's top detractor in the period, disappointing investors with lackluster results earlier in the year. The company, which operates a retail catalog and online presence, reported earnings that fell short of expectations due to higher expenses in its retail business. Additionally shares of the semiconductor company Monolithic Systems declined when its major customer, Nintendo, slashed the sales forecast of its Gamecube. As a result of these announcements, both positions were sold from the portfolio. Global Imaging Systems was the portfolio's top contributor for the period. Shares rose strongly after the company reported its eleventh consecutive quarter in which earnings per share exceeded consensus estimates, driven by a combination of strong revenues and gross margins. The company provides sales, service, and support of copiers, faxes, PCs and PC networks, printers, and document imaging and storage equipment. Q: HOW WAS THE FUND MANAGED? A: During the year, management of the portfolio was transitioned to a new team that currently manages the JPMorgan Small Cap Growth Fund. The portfolio managers utilize a "bottom up" approach to construct the fund's portfolio, basing their stock selection on a combination of proprietary company research complemented by research derived from third-party sources. The research process is designed to identify companies with predictable and durable business models deemed capable of achieving sustainable growth. Potential investments are subjected to rigorous financial analysis and a disciplined approach to valuation. As a result of the transition, the number of holdings in the Fund was reduced. Additionally, the portfolio's exposure to the Consumer Discretionary sector was increased and to fund these new names the portfolio's exposure in the Materials and Processing sector was eliminated. 27 [CHART] PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS Technology 30.5% Consumer Goods & Services 20.9% Health Services & Systems 11.7% Industrial Products & Services 9.6% Finance & Insurance 8.2% Pharmaceuticals 7.8% Energy 5.4% Telecommunications 4.7% REITs 1.0% Short-Term Investments 0.2%

SEE NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. 76 JPMORGAN FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. ORGANIZATION J.P. Morgan Funds ("JPMF"), J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds ("JPMIF"), J.P. Morgan Mutual Fund Group ("JPMMFG"), J.P. Morgan Mutual Fund Select Group ("JPMMFSG") and the J.P. Morgan Mutual Fund Investment Trust ("JPMMFIT") were organized as Massachusetts business trusts and J.P. Morgan Fleming Mutual Fund Group, Inc. ("JPMFMFG") was organized as a Maryland corporation. JPMF, JPMIF, JPMMFG, JPMMFSG, JPMMFIT and JPMFMFG (collectively, the "Trusts") are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (the "1940 Act"), as open-end management investment companies. The Trusts were organized on the following dates: JPMF November 4, 1992 JPMIF November 4, 1992 JPMMFG May 11, 1987 JPMMFSG October 1, 1996 JPMMFIT September 23, 1997 JPMFMFG August 19, 1997
The following are nine separate portfolios of the Trusts (collectively, the "Funds"):
FUND CLASSES OFFERED JPMorgan Dynamic Small Cap Fund ("DSCF") Class A, Class B, Class C and Select JPMorgan Mid Cap Equity Fund ("MCEF") Select JPMorgan Mid Cap Growth Fund ("MCGF") Class A and Class B JPMorgan Mid Cap Value Fund ("MCVF") Class A, Class B, Class C, Institutional and Select JPMorgan Small Cap Equity Fund ("SCEF") Class A, Class B and Select JPMorgan Small Cap Growth Fund ("SCGF") Class A, Institutional and Select JPMorgan Trust Small Cap Equity Fund ("TSCEF") Select JPMorgan U.S. Small Company Fund ("USSCF") Institutional and Select JPMorgan U.S. Small Company Opportunities Fund ("USSCOF") Select
JPMMFG, JPMMFSG, JPMMFIT and JPMFMFG were formerly named Mutual Fund Group, Mutual Fund Select Group, Mutual Fund Investment Trust and The Fleming Mutual Fund Group, Inc., respectively. The name changes went into effect on May 1, 2003. MCEF and TSCEF were formerly named JPMorgan Select Mid Cap Equity Fund and JPMorgan Select Small Cap Equity Fund, respectively. The name changes went into effect on April 30, 2003. USSCOF is a separate series of JPMF. USSCF is a separate series of JPMIF. SCEF and DSCF are separate series of JPMMFG. MCEF and TSCEF are separate series of JPMMFSG. MCGF is a separate series of JPMMFIT. MCVF and SCGF are separate series of JPMFMFG. On September 12, 2003, SCGF Class B and Class C shares merged into Class A shares and Class B and Class C shares closed. 77 Class A shares generally provide for a front-end sales charge while Class B and Class C shares provide for a contingent deferred sales charge. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares after eight years. No sales charges are assessed with respect to the Institutional Class shares and Select Class shares. All classes of shares have equal rights as to earnings, assets and voting privileges except that each class may bear different transfer agent, distribution and shareholder servicing fees and each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its distribution plan and shareholder servicing agreements. Class A shares for which front-end charges have been waived may be subject to redemption charges as described in the Funds' prospectus. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES THE FOLLOWING IS A SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES FOLLOWED BY THE FUNDS: The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS -- Equity securities, purchased options and futures contracts are valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded. The value of National Market Systems equity securities quotes by the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. shall generally be the Nasdaq Official Closing Price. Securities for which sale prices are not available and other over-the-counter securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked quotations. Fixed income securities (other than convertible bonds) with a maturity of 61 days or more held by the Funds will be valued each day based on readily available market quotations received from independent or affiliated commercial pricing services. Such pricing services will generally provide bidside quotations. Convertible bonds are valued at the last sale price on the primary exchange on which the bond is principally traded. Short-term investments with 60 days or less to maturity at time of purchase are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. When valuations are not readily available, securities are valued at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees. It is reasonably possible that the estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and such differences could have been material. Trading in securities on most foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets is normally completed before the close of the domestic market and may also take place on days when the domestic market is closed. In accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees, the Funds apply fair value pricing on a daily basis for all non-U.S. and non-Canadian equity securities held in its portfolio by utilizing the quotations of an independent pricing service, unless the Fund's advisor, J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. ("JPMIM" or the "Advisor"), determines that use of another valuation methodology is appropriate. The pricing service uses statistical analyses and quantitative models to adjust local market prices using factors such as subsequent movements and changes in the prices of indices, securities and exchange rates in other markets, in determining fair value as of the time a Fund calculates its net asset value. B. FUTURES CONTRACTS -- When a Fund enters into a futures contract, it makes an initial margin deposit in a segregated account, either in cash or liquid securities. Thereafter, the futures contract is marked to market and the Fund makes (or receives) additional cash payments daily to (or from) the broker. Changes in the value of the contract are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contract is closed or settled, at which time a realized gain or loss is recognized. Index futures contracts are used to control the asset mix of the portfolios in the most efficient manner. Short index 78 futures contracts are used for hedging purposes; i.e., to reduce the exposure to equities. Long index futures contracts are used to gain exposure to equities, when it is anticipated that this will be more efficient than buying stocks directly. Use of long futures contracts subjects the Fund to risk of loss in excess of amounts shown on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, up to the notional value of the futures contract. Use of short futures contracts subjects the Funds to unlimited risk of loss. The Funds may enter into futures contracts only on exchanges or boards of trade. The exchange or board of trade acts as the counterparty to each futures transaction; therefore, the Fund's credit risk is limited to failure of the exchange or board of trade. As of December 31, 2003, USSCF had outstanding futures contracts as listed on the Fund's Portfolio of Investments. C. RESTRICTED AND ILLIQUID SECURITIES -- The Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale or are illiquid. Restricted securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration. A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available market or if its valuation has not changed for a certain period of time. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at the current valuation may be difficult. D. SECURITIES ON LOAN -- For all of the Funds, the Board of Trustees has approved the lending of securities through its custodian JPMorgan Chase Bank ("JPMCB"), an affiliate of the Funds, acting as lending agent to certain borrowers. By lending investment securities, the Funds attempt to increase net investment income through the receipt of interest (after rebates and fees) on collateral received in connection with the loan. The net amount of interest earned, after the rebate and fee, is included in the Statement of Operations as Securities lending (net). The loans are secured by collateral at least equal, at all times, to the value of the securities loaned plus in the case of fixed income securities, any accrued but unpaid interest thereon. Gain or loss on the value of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan will be for the account of the Fund. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. The Fund has the right under the lending agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on demand. JPMCB invests the cash collateral on behalf of the Funds in accordance with investment guidelines contained in the securities lending agreement. At December 31, 2003, the market value of securities loaned and the amount of collateral received were as follows (amounts in thousands):
MARKET VALUE OF MARKET VALUE OF SECURITIES LOANED COLLATERAL RECEIVED DSCF $ 9,054 $ 9,403 MCEF 6,057 6,168 MCGF 5,346 5,423 MCVF 6,130 6,290 SCEF 117,020 120,673 SCGF 89 91 TSCEF 16,942 17,319 USSCF 22,653 23,338 USSCOF -- --
JPMCB as lending agent receives a fee equal to 0.06% of the average dollar value of U.S. securities out on loan 79 during a given month and 0.1142% of the average dollar value of loans on non-U.S. securities outstanding during a given month from the Funds as detailed below (amounts in thousands): DSCF $ 14 MCEF 6 MCGF 5 MCVF 6 SCEF 53 SCGF --^ TSCEF 22 USSCF 35 USSCOF 3
^ Amount rounds to less the one thousand. Risks of delay in recovery of securities or even loss of rights in the securities may occur should the borrower of the securities fail financially. Risks may also arise to the extent that the value of the securities loaned increases above the value of the collateral received. JPMCB will indemnify the Fund from any loss resulting from a borrower's failure to return a loaned security when due. E. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date (the date the order to buy or sell is executed). Securities gains and losses are calculated on the identified cost basis. Interest income is determined on the basis of coupon interest accrued using the interest method adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is recorded on the ex-dividend date or when the fund first learns of the dividend. F. ALLOCATION OF INCOME AND EXPENSES -- Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged to that Fund; other expenses of the Trusts are allocated proportionately among each of the Funds within the Trusts in relation to the net assets of each Fund or on another reasonable basis. Expenses directly attributable to a particular class are charged directly to such class. In calculating the net asset value per share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses and expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day. G. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- Each Fund is treated as a separate taxable entity for Federal income tax purposes. The Fund's policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders all of its distributable net investment income and net realized gain on investments. In addition, the Funds intend to make distributions as required to avoid excise taxes. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income or excise tax is necessary. H. DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Dividends and distributions paid to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains is determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. To the extent these "book/tax" differences are permanent in nature (i.e., that they result from other than timing of recognition -- "temporary differences"), such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their Federal tax-basis treatment. 80 The following amounts were reclassified within the capital accounts (amounts in thousands):
ACCUMULATED ACCUMULATED UNDISTRIBUTED/ NET REALIZED (OVERDISTRIBUTED) GAIN (LOSS) PAID-IN-CAPITAL NET INVESTMENT INCOME ON INVESTMENTS FUND DSCF $ (2,281) $ 2,281 $ -- MCEF --^ 12 (12) MCGF (629) 629 -- MCVF -- 61 (61) SCEF (2,129) 2,087 42 SCGF (21) 21 --^ TSCEF -- --^ --^ USSCF (472) 147 325 USSCOF (138) 137 1
^ Amount rounds to less than one thousand. The reclassifications for DSCF and MCGF relate primarily to the character for the tax purposes of current year non-deductible net operating losses. The reclassifications for MCEF, MCVF, TSCEF and USSCF relate primarily to the character for tax purposes of distributions received from investments in REITs and the character for tax purposes of dividends paid. The reclassifications for SCEF, SCGF and USSCOF relate primarily to the character for the tax purposes of current year non-deductible net operating losses and the character for tax purposes of distributions received from investments in REITs. I. OTHER EXPENSES -- Other expenses in the Statement of Operations include fees related to line of credit, insurance, pricing and reporting services. 3. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES A. INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE -- Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreements, JPMIM acts as the investment advisor to the Funds. Prior to September 1, 2003, J.P. Morgan Fleming Asset Management (USA) Inc. ("JPMFAM") served as the Advisor to DSCF, MCEF, MCGF, SCEF and TSCEF. Robert Fleming Inc. ("Fleming"), a wholly owned subsidiary of JPMCB, was the Advisor for MCVF and SCGF. On September 1, 2003, JPMFAM and Fleming merged into JPMIM. Prior to October 1, 2003, JPMIM was a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. On October 1, 2003, JPMIM became a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan Fleming Asset Management Holdings, Inc., which is a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. The investment advisory services and personnel providing investment advice have not changed as a result of the merger and ownership change. Neither the merger nor the ownership change constituted an assignment under the 1940 Act or the Investment Advisors Act of 1940. The Advisor supervises the investments of each respective Fund and 81 for such services is paid a fee. The fee is accrued daily and paid monthly based on each Fund's respective average daily net assets. The annual fee for each Fund is as follows:
INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE (%) DSCF 0.65% MCEF 0.65% MCGF 0.65% MCVF 0.70% SCEF 0.65% SCGF 0.80% TSCEF 0.65% USSCF 0.60% USSCOF 0.60%
The Advisors waived fees as outlined in Note 3.F. The Funds may invest in one or more of the affiliated JPMorgan Money Market Funds. The Adviser has agreed to waive and/or reimburse its advisory fee from the Funds in an amount sufficient to offset any doubling up of investment advisory, administration and shareholder servicing fees related to each Fund's investment in an affiliated money market fund. B. DISTRIBUTION FEE -- Pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, J.P. Morgan Fund Distributors, Inc. ("JPMFD" or "Distributor"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc., serves as the Trusts' exclusive underwriter and promotes and arranges for the sale of each Fund's shares. JPMFD receives no compensation in its capacity as the Funds' underwriter. The Trustees have adopted Distribution Plans (the "Distribution Plans") for Class A, B, and C Shares of the Funds in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Distribution Plans provide that each Fund shall pay distribution fees, including payments to the Distributor, at annual rates of the average daily net assets as shown in the table below (%):
CLASS A CLASS B CLASS C FUND DSCF 0.25 0.75 0.75 MCEF n/a n/a n/a MCGF 0.25^ 0.75^ n/a MCVF 0.25 0.75^ 0.75^ SCEF 0.25 0.75 n/a SCGF 0.25 n/a n/a TSCEF n/a n/a n/a USSCF n/a n/a n/a USSCOF n/a n/a n/a
^ Prior to May 1, 2003, MCGF Class B and MCVF Classes B and C paid the Distributor a fee computed daily and paid monthly at an annual rate equal to 1.00% of the respective Fund Class average daily net assets. MCGF Class A paid 0.30%. 82 In addition, JPMFD receives the contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") from redemptions of Class B and C shares. The Distributor waived fees as outlined in 3.F. C. SHAREHOLDER SERVICING FEE -- The Trusts have entered into Shareholder Servicing Agreements on behalf of the Funds with JPMCB under which JPMCB provides account administration and personal account maintenance services to shareholders. JPMCB may obtain the services of one or more Shareholder Servicing Agents. For these services, JPMCB or the Shareholder Servicing Agent will receive a fee that is computed daily and paid monthly equal to a percentage of the average daily net assets as shown in the table below (%):
INSTITUTIONAL SELECT CLASS A CLASS B CLASS C CLASS CLASS FUND DSCF 0.25 0.25 0.25 n/a 0.25 MCEF n/a n/a n/a n/a 0.25 MCGF 0.25 0.25 n/a n/a n/a MCVF 0.25 0.25 0.25 0.10 0.25 SCEF 0.25 0.25 n/a n/a 0.25 SCGF 0.25 n/a n/a 0.10 0.25 TSCEF n/a n/a n/a n/a 0.25 USSCF n/a n/a n/a 0.10 0.25 USSCOF n/a n/a n/a n/a 0.25
JPMCB may enter into services contracts with certain entities under which it will pay all or a portion of the annual fee to such entities for performing shareholder and administrative services Effective May 1, 2003, a shareholder servicing fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets was implemented for Class A and Class B shares of the MCGF, Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the MCVF and Class A shares of the SCGF. Also effective May 1, 2003, a shareholder servicing fee of 0.10% of average daily net assets was implemented for the Institutional Class of MCVF and SCGF. In addition, the shareholder servicing fee for Class A shares of the SCEF changed from 0.10% to 0.25%. In addition, JPMCB, Charles Schwab & Co. ("Schwab") and the Trusts are parties to separate services and operating agreements (the "Schwab Agreements") whereby Schwab makes shares of the Funds available to customers of investment advisers and other financial intermediaries who are Schwab's clients. The Funds are not responsible for payments to Schwab under the Schwab Agreements; however, in the event the servicing agreement with Schwab is terminated for reasons other than a breach by Schwab and the relationship between the Trusts and JPMCB is terminated, the Funds would be responsible for the ongoing payments to Schwab with respect to pre-termination shares. JPMCB waived fees as outlined in Note 3.F. D. CUSTODIAN AND ACCOUNTING FEES -- JPMCB provides portfolio custody services for all the Funds. Compensation for such services is presented in the Statement of Operations as custodian fees. The custodian fees may be reduced by credits earned by each Fund, based on the uninvested cash balances held by the custodian. Such earning credits are presented separately in the Statement of Operations. 83 E. ADMINISTRATION FEE -- Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, JPMCB (the "Administrator") provides certain administration services to the Funds. In consideration of these services, the Administrator receives a fee computed daily and paid monthly at the annual rate equal to 0.15% of the first $25 billion of the average daily net assets of all non-money market funds in the JPMorgan Fund Complex and 0.075% of the average daily net assets in excess of $25 billion. Effective May 1, 2003 MCVF and SCGF pay administrative fees as stated above. Prior to May 1, 2003, MCVF and SCGF paid the Administrator a fee computed daily and paid monthly at an annual rate equal to 0.10% of the respective Fund's average daily net assets. BISYS Fund Services, LP ("BISYS") serves as the Funds' sub-administrator. For its services as sub-administrator, BISYS receives a portion of the fees payable to JPMCB as Administrator. The Administrator has contractually agreed to reimburse the Funds to the extent that total operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, extraordinary expenses and expenses related to the deferred compensation plan) exceed the percentages of their respective average daily net assets as shown in the table below (%):

G. OTHER -- Certain officers of the Trusts are officers of JPMorgan Chase & Co. or of BISYS or their subsidiaries. During the year, the Funds may have purchased securities from an underwriting syndicate in which the principal underwriter or members of the syndicate were affiliated with the Advisors. The Funds may use related party broker/dealers. For the year ended December 31, 2003, MCEF, USSCF and USSCOF incurred approximately (in thousands) $4, $2 and $1, respectively, as brokerage commissions with brokers/dealers affiliated with JPMCB. The SEC has granted an exemptive order permitting each fund to engage in principal transactions with J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., an affiliated broker, involving taxable money market instruments subject to certain conditions. 85 4.

For DSCF, MCGF, MCVF and SCGF, the difference between book and tax basis unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) is primarily attributed to wash sale loss deferrals. For USSCF, the difference between book and tax basis unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) is due to wash sale loss deferrals, the mark to market of futures contracts, REIT basis adjustments and allocation of tax basis on "Master/Feeder" takedown. For MCEF, SCEF, TSCEF and USSCOF, the difference between book and tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is primarily attributed to wash sale loss deferrals and REIT basis adjustments. For DSCF, MCEF, MCGF, MCVF, SCEF, SCGF, TSCEF and USSCF, the cumulative timing difference account primarily consists of deferred compensation. For USSCOF, the cumulative timing difference account primarily consists of deferred compensation and current year post-October loss deferrals. 91 At December 31, 2003, the following Funds have capital loss carryovers, which will be available to offset capital gains. To the extent that any net capital loss carryovers are used to offset future capital gains, it is probable that the gains so offset will not be distributed to shareholders (amounts in thousands):

During the year ended December 31, 2003, DSCF, MCVF, SCEF, TSCEF and USSCF utilized capital loss carryforwards of (in thousands) $2,496, $448, $21,837, $6,751 and $15,612, respectively. Capital losses incurred after October 31, within a Fund's fiscal year, are deemed to arise on the first business day of the following fiscal year for tax purposes. USSCOF incurred a post-October realized capital loss of $124 (amount in thousands). 8. BANK BORROWINGS Pursuant to a Line of Credit Agreement, dated April 17, 2003, the Funds may borrow money for temporary or emergency purposes. The Funds had entered into the agreement, enabling them to participate with other JPMorgan Funds in a line of credit with JPMCB, as administrative agent, and with a syndicate of banks, which permits borrowings up to $250 million, collectively. Interest is charged to each Fund based on its borrowings at an annual rate equal to the sum of the Federal Funds 92 Rate plus 0.50%. The Funds also pay a commitment fee of 0.09% per annum on the average daily amount of the available commitment, which is allocated on a pro-rata basis to the Funds. The commitment fee is included in Other expenses on the Statement of Operations. This agreement will expire on April 15, 2004. Prior to April 17, 2003, the Funds could borrow money for temporary or emergency purposes. The Funds had entered into an agreement, enabling it to participate with other JPMorgan Funds in an unsecured line of credit with a syndicate of banks, which permitted borrowings up to $400 million, collectively. Interest was charged to each Fund based on its borrowings at an annual rate equal to the sum of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The Funds also paid a commitment fee of 0.10% per annum on the average daily amount of the available commitment, which was allocated on a pro-rata basis to the Funds. This agreement expired on April 16, 2003. The commitment fee is included in Other expenses on the Statement of Operations. During the year ended December 31, 2003, USSCF and USSCOF had borrowed against the Line of Credit Agreement. The details of the borrowing were as follows (amounts in thousands):
AVERAGE AVERAGE AMOUNT OUTSTANDING* INTEREST RATE FUND USSCF $ 70 1.63% USSCOF 37 1.63%
* The average amount outstanding was calculated based on the daily balances during the period from January 1, 2003 through December 31, 2003. 9. CONCENTRATIONS AND INDEMNIFICATIONS From time to time, the Funds may have a concentration of several shareholders which may be a related party, holding a significant percentage of shares outstanding. Investment activities of these shareholders could have a material impact on the Funds. In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. Each Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against each Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote. 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENT On January 14, 2004, J. P. Morgan Chase and Co. and Bank One Corp. announced they have entered into an agreement and plan of merger. The merger is subject to the approval of the shareholders of both institutions as well as U.S. federal and state and foreign regulatory authorities. Completion of the transaction is expected to occur in mid-2004. 93 11. CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS Capital share transactions were as follows for the periods presented (amounts in thousands):

(b) AUDIT-RELATED FEES. There were no audit-related fees for the Registrant during the Reporting Periods. The aggregate fees billed in the Reporting Periods for assurance and related services by the Auditor to the Registrant's investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant ("Service Affiliates"), that were reasonably related to the performance of the annual audit of the Service Affiliates, which required pre-approval by the Audit Committee were $8,277,000 from May 6, 2003 to December 31, 2003 (prior to May 6, 2003 services provided by the Auditor were not required to be pre-approved).
