of the Investment Company Act of 1940 Act, as amended) on the 13th day of
December, 2007 and that said resolutions are in full force and effect:

		RESOLVED, that it is the finding of the Trustees of J.P. Morgan
	Series Trust II and J.P. Morgan Institutional Trust, (collectively, the
	"Trusts") and separately the finding of the Independent Trustees that
	the proposed Fidelity Bond written by St. Paul Fire and Marine
	Insurance Company (the "Bond") in the aggregate amount of $3,200,000,
	covering the Trusts, in accordance with the requirements of Rule 17g-1
	promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section
	17(g) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, is reasonable
	in form and amount, after having given due consideration to, among
	other things, the value of the aggregate assets of each of the funds
	that are series of the Trusts to which any person covered under the
	Bond may have access, the type and terms of the arrangements made for
	the custody and safekeeping of assets of the Trusts, the number of other
	parties named as insured parties under the Bond and the nature of the
	business activities of other parties; and

         	FURTHER RESOLVED, that the premium to be paid by the Trusts
	under the Bond be, and hereby is, approved by the Trustees and
	separately by the Independent Trustees after having given due
	consideration to, among other things, the number of other parties
	insured under the Bond, the nature of the business activities of those
	other parties, the amount of the Bond and the extent to which the
	share of the maximum premium allocated to each Trust under the Bond
	is no more than the premium that such Trust would have had to pay had
	it maintained a single insured bond; and

         	FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Bond be, and hereby is, approved by
	a vote of a majority of the Trustees and separately by the Independent
	Trustees; and

	them hereby is, authorized and directed to enter into an agreement
	among the Trusts, in substantially the form furnished to the Trustees,
	as required by Rule 17g-1, with the other named insureds under the Bond
	providing that in the event any recovery is received under the Bond as
	a result of a loss sustained by a Trust and also by one or more of the
	other named insureds, that Trust shall receive an equitable and
	proportionate share of the recovery, but in no event less than the
	amount it would have received had it provided and maintained a single
	insured bond with the minimum coverage required by paragraph (d)(1)
	of the aforementioned Rule 17g-1; and

       	 	FURTHER RESOLVED, that the appropriate officers of the Trusts be,
	and they hereby are, authorized and directed to prepare, execute and
	file such amendments and supplements to the aforesaid agreement, and
	to take such other action as may be necessary or appropriate in order
	to conform to the provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
	amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder; and

        	FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Secretary of the Trusts shall file the
	Bond with the Securities and Exchange Commission and give notice required
	under paragraph (g) of the aforementioned Rule 17g-1; and

         	FURTHER RESOLVED, that the appropriate officers of the Trusts be,
	and each of them hereby is, authorized to make any and all payments and
	to do any and all other acts, in the name of the Trusts and on their
	behalf, as they, or any of them, may determine to be necessary or
	desirable and proper in connection with or in furtherance of the
	foregoing resolutions.
