MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE PRIME MONEY MARKET FUND -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REGISTRANT: J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS (J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE PRIME MONEY MARKET FUND) [GRAPHIC] GOAL The fund's goal is to maximize current income consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. This goal can be changed only with shareholder approval. [GRAPHIC] INVESTMENT APPROACH Principal Strategies The fund looks for investments across a broad spectrum of U.S. dollar-denominated money market securities, typically emphasizing different types of securities at different times in order to take advantage of changing yield differentials. The fund's investments may include obligations issued by the U.S. Treasury, government agencies, domestic and foreign banks and corporations, foreign governments, repurchase agreements, as well as asset-backed securities, taxable municipal obligations, and other money market instruments. Some of these investments may be illiquid or purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. The fund's yield will vary in response to changes in interest rates. How well the fund's yield compares to the yields of similar money market funds will depend on the success of the investment process described on page 11. Principal Risks As with all money market funds, the fund's investments are subject to various risks, which, while generally considered to be minimal, could cause its share price to fall below $1. For example, the issuer or guarantor of a portfolio security or the counterparty to a contract could default on its obligation. An unexpected rise in interest rates could also lead to a loss in share price if the fund is near the maximum allowable dollar weighted average maturity (currently not to exceed 90 days) at the time. To the extent that the fund invests in foreign securities, the fund could lose money because of foreign government actions, political instability, or lack of adequate and accurate information. Also, the fund may have difficulty valuing its illiquid holdings and may be unable to sell them at the time or price it desires. While these possibilities exist, the fund's investment process and management policies are designed to minimize the likelihood and impact of these risks. To date, through this process, the fund's share price has never deviated from $1. An investment in the fund is not a deposit of any bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT The fund's assets are managed by J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc., a subsidiary of J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., J.P. Morgan Chase currently manages more than $700 billion, including more than $____ billion using similar strategies as the fund. The advisor uses a team of portfolio managers and traders to manage the fund. The portfolio management team is led by John Donohue, vice president, who has been on the team since joining J.P. Morgan in June of 1997 from Goldman Sachs & Co., where he was an Institutional Money Market Portfolio Manager; and Mark Settles, vice president, who has been on the team since November 1999 and has been at J.P. Morgan since 1994. Prior to managing this fund, Mr. Settles was a fixed income trader on J.P. Morgan's New York and London trading desks. The traders on the team are Donald Clemmenson, vice president, who has been on the team since its inception; Gunter Heiland, vice president, who has been on the team since joining J.P. Morgan in June of 1997 from Salomon Brothers, where he was a sales assistant; and Kimberly Weil, who has been on the team since its inception. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Before you invest Investors considering these funds should understand that: o There is no assurance that these funds will meet their investment goals o These funds do not represent complete investment programs 2 | J.P.

The example assumes: $10,000 initial investment, 5% return each year, net expenses for the period 3/1/01 through 2/28/02 and total operating expenses thereafter, and all shares sold at the end of each time period. The example is for comparison only; the fund's actual return and your actual costs may be higher or lower. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 yr. 3 yrs. 5 yrs. 10 yrs. Your cost($) 46 153 270 612 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) The fund commenced operations on 10/23/97, and returns reflect the performance of the fund from 11/1/97 forward. For the period from 8/1/93 through 10/31/97, returns reflect the performance of the J.P. Morgan Prime Money Market Fund, a separate feeder fund investing in the same master portfolio. For the period from 1/1/91 through 7/31/93, returns reflect the performance of The Pierpont Money Market Fund, the predecessor to the J.P. Morgan Prime Money Market Fund. The returns of these predecessor funds reflect lower operating expenses than those of the fund. Therefore, these returns may be higher than the fund's would have been had it existed during the same period. (2) The fund's fiscal year end is 11/30. (3) The fund has a master/feeder structure as described on page 14. This table shows the fund's expenses and its share of master portfolio expenses for the past fiscal year expressed as a percentage of the fund's average net assets. (4) Service Organizations (described on page 12) may charge other fees to their customers who are the beneficial owners of shares in connection with their customers' accounts. Such fees, if any, may affect the return such customers realize with respect to their investments. (5) Reflects an agreement by Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York ("Morgan Guaranty"), an affiliate of J.P. Morgan, to reimburse the fund to the extent total operating expenses exceed 0.45% (excluding interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses) of the fund's average daily net assets through 2/28/02. J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE PRIME MONEY MARKET FUND | 3 J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE TREASURY MONEY MARKET FUND | TICKER SYMBOL: JPMXX -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REGISTRANT: J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS (J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE TREASURY MONEY MARKET FUND) [GRAPHIC] GOAL The fund's goal is to provide high current income consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. This goal can be changed without shareholder approval. [GRAPHIC] INVESTMENT APPROACH Principal Strategies The fund purchases securities that offer the highest credit quality and provide regular income. It invests primarily in U.S. Treasury obligations and repurchase agreements collateralized by these obligations. Some of these investments may be purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. The fund may also invest in certain bank obligations when Treasury obligations or repurchase agreements are temporarily unavailable to the fund. The fund's yield will vary in response to changes in interest rates. How well the fund's yield compares to the yields of similar money market funds will depend on the success of the investment process described on page 11. The portion of the fund's income derived from direct investments in U.S. Treasury obligations may be exempt from state and local personal income taxes. Principal Risks While the fund's U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the full faith and credit of the federal government, investors should bear in mind that any repurchase agreements the fund may hold do not have this guarantee (even though they are fully collateralized by Treasuries), and that in any case, government guarantees do not extend to shares of the fund itself. An investment in the fund is not a deposit of any bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT The fund's assets are managed by J.P.

MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE TREASURY MONEY MARKET FUND | 5 J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE FEDERAL MONEY MARKET FUND -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REGISTRANT: J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS (J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE FEDERAL MONEY MARKET FUND) [GRAPHIC] GOAL The fund's goal is to provide high current income consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. This goal can be changed only with shareholder approval. [GRAPHIC] INVESTMENT APPROACH Principal Strategies The fund purchases securities that offer very high credit quality and pay regular income that is generally free from state and local income taxes. It invests exclusively in U.S. government agency obligations such as the Federal Farm Credit Bank, the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Federal Home Loan Bank, the Student Loan Marketing Association, and in obligations of the U.S. Treasury. Some of these investments may be purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. The fund's yield will vary in response to changes in interest rates. How well the fund's yield compares to the yields of similar money market funds will depend on the success of the investment process described on page 11. Principal Risks While the fund's U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the full faith and credit of the Government, investors should bear in mind that any agency obligations the fund may hold do not have this guarantee, and that in any case government guarantees do not extend to shares of the fund itself. Most of the fund's income is generally exempt from state and local personal income taxes and from some corporate income taxes (although not federal income taxes). Because of this beneficial tax status, the fund's yields are generally lower than those of taxable money market funds when compared on a pre-tax basis. As with all money market funds, the fund's investments are subject to various risks, which, while generally considered to be minimal, could cause its share price to fall below $1. For example, the issuer or guarantor of a portfolio security could default on its obligation. An unexpected rise in interest rates could also lead to a loss in share price if the fund is near the maximum allowable dollar weighted average maturity (currently not to exceed 90 days) at the time. However, the fund's investment process and management policies are designed to minimize the likelihood and impact of these risks.

MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE FEDERAL MONEY MARKET FUND | 7 J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REGISTRANT: J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS (J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND) [GRAPHIC] GOAL The fund's goal is to maximize current income that is exempt from federal income tax consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. This goal can be changed only with shareholder approval. [GRAPHIC] INVESTMENT APPROACH Principal Strategies The fund invests primarily in high quality municipal obligations whose income is exempt from federal income taxes. The fund's municipal obligations must fall into the highest short-term rating category (top two highest categories for New York State obligations) or be of equivalent quality. The fund may also invest in certain structured municipal obligations, and in certain municipal or other obligations whose income is subject to tax, including the alternative minimum tax. Although the fund is permitted to hold these other obligations or cash, it aims to be fully invested in municipal obligations. In order to maintain liquidity, the fund may buy securities with puts that allow the fund to liquidate the securities on short notice. Some of the fund's securities may be purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. The fund's yield will vary in response to changes in interest rates. How well the fund's yield compares to the yields of similar money market funds will depend on the success of the investment process described on page 11. The fund's income is generally exempt from federal income taxes. A small portion may be exempt from state or local income taxes. Principal Risks As with all money market funds, the fund's investments are subject to various risks, which, while generally considered to be minimal, could cause its share price to fall below $1.

Your cost($) 46 199 365 847 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) The fund commenced operations on 11/4/97, and returns reflect the performance of the fund from 12/1/97 forward. For the period 8/1/93 to 11/30/97, returns reflect the performance of J.P. Morgan Tax Exempt Money Market Fund, a separate feeder fund investing in the same master portfolio. For the period 1/1/91 to 7/31/93 returns reflect performance of The Pierpont Tax Exempt Money Market Fund, the predecessor of the J.P. Morgan Tax Exempt Money Market Fund. The returns of these predecessor funds reflect lower operating expenses than those of the fund. Therefore, these returns may be higher than the fund's would have been had it existed during the same period. (2) The fund's fiscal year end is 11/30. Prior to 1999, the fund's fiscal year end was 8/31. (3) The fund has a master/feeder structure as described on page 14. This table shows the fund's expenses and its share of master portfolio expenses for the past fiscal year expressed as a percentage of the fund's average net assets. (4) Service Organizations (described on page 12) may charge other fees to their customers who are the beneficial owners of shares in connection with their customers' accounts. Such fees, if any, may affect the return such customers realize with respect to their investments. (5) Reflects an agreement by Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York ("Morgan Guaranty"), an affiliate of J.P. Morgan, to reimburse the fund to the extent total operating expenses exceed 0.45% (excluding interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses) of the fund's average daily net assets through 2/28/02. J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND | 9 MONEY MARKET MANAGEMENT APPROACH -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- J.P. MORGAN Known for its commitment to proprietary research and its disciplined investment strategies, J.P. Morgan Chase is the asset management choice for many of the world's most respected corporations, financial institutions, governments, and individuals. Today, J.P. Morgan Chase employs approximately ___ research analysts, capital market researchers, portfolio managers and traders around the world and has more than $700 billion in assets under management, including assets managed by the fund's advisor, J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL SERVICE MONEY MARKET FUNDS Each of these funds invests in high-quality short-term debt securities by investing through a master portfolio (another fund with the same goal). Each fund accrues dividends daily, pays them to shareholders monthly, and seeks to maintain a stable $1 share price. THE SPECTRUM OF MONEY MARKET FUNDS The funds described in this prospectus differ primarily in the types of securities they hold and in the tax status of the income they offer. The table below provides an overview of the main types of securities in which each fund may invest. The distinguishing features of each money market fund are described in more detail on the preceding pages. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHO MAY WANT TO INVEST The funds are designed for investors who: o want an investment that strives to preserve capital o want regular income from a high quality portfolio o want a highly liquid investment o are looking for an interim investment o are pursuing a short-term goal o are seeking income that is generally exempt from state and local income taxes (in the case of Federal Money Market Fund) or exempt from federal income tax (in the case of Tax Exempt Money Market Fund) The funds are not designed for investors who: o are investing for long-term growth o are investing for high income o require the added security of the FDIC insurance o in the case of Tax Exempt Money Market Fund, are investing through an IRA or other tax-advantaged retirement plan MONEY MARKET FUNDS AND STABILITY Money market funds are subject to a range of federal regulations designed to promote stability. For example, money market funds must maintain a weighted average maturity of no more than 90 days, and generally may not invest in any securities with a remaining maturity of more than 13 months. Keeping the weighted average maturity this short helps funds in their pursuit of a stable $1 share price. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Primary investments -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Service Service Service Service Prime Treasury Federal Tax Exempt Money Market Money Market Money Market Money Market -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. Treasuries* o o o -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. government agency instruments o o* -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Domestic & foreign bank obligations o -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Domestic & foreign short-term corporate obligations o -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Foreign governments o -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Illiquid holdings o -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements o o -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tax-exempt municipal obligations** o * Income is generally exempt from state and local income taxes ** Income is generally exempt from federal income taxes 10 | MONEY MARKET MANAGEMENT APPROACH -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MONEY MARKET INVESTMENT PROCESS While each fund follows its own strategy, the funds as a group share a single investment philosophy. This philosophy, developed by the funds' advisor, emphasizes investment quality through in-depth research of short-term securities and their issuers. This allows each fund to focus on providing current income without compromising share price stability. In researching short-term securities, J.P. Morgan's credit analysts enhance the data furnished by rating agencies by drawing on the insights of J.P. Morgan's fixed income trading specialists and equity analysts. Only securities highly rated by independent rating agencies as well as J.P. Morgan's proprietary ratings system are considered for investment. In managing the funds described in this prospectus, J.P. Morgan employs a three-step process that combines maturity determination, sector allocation and fundamental research for identifying portfolio securities: [GRAPHIC] J.P. Morgan uses a disciplined process to control each fund's sensitivity to interest rates Maturity determination Based on analysis of a range of factors, including current yields, economic forecasts, and anticipated fiscal and monetary policies, J.P. Morgan establishes the desired dollar weighted average maturity for each fund within the permissible 90-day range. Controlling weighted average maturity allows the funds to manage risk, since securities with shorter maturities are typically less sensitive to interest rate shifts than those with longer maturities. [GRAPHIC] The funds invest across different sectors for diversification and to take advantage of yield spreads Sector allocation Analysis of the yields available in different sectors of the short-term debt market allows J.P. Morgan to adjust each fund's sector allocation, with the goal of enhancing current income while also maintaining diversification across permissible sectors. [GRAPHIC] Each fund selects its securities as described earlier in this prospectus Security selection Based on the results of the firm's credit research and each fund's maturity determination and sector allocation, the portfolio managers and dedicated fixed-income traders make buy and sell decisions according to each fund's goal and strategy. MONEY MARKET MANAGEMENT APPROACH | 11 YOUR INVESTMENT -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INVESTING THROUGH A SERVICE ORGANIZATION Prospective investors may only purchase shares of each fund with the assistance of a service organization. Your service organization is paid by the fund to assist you in establishing your fund account, executing transactions, and monitoring your investment. The minimum amount for initial investments in a fund by a service organization is $10,000,000 and for additional investments $25,000, although these minimums may be less for some investors. Service organizations may provide the following services in connection with their customers' investments in the funds: o Acting, directly or through an agent, as the sole shareholder of record o Maintaining account records for customers o Processing orders to purchase, redeem or exchange shares for customers o Responding to inquiries from shareholders o Assisting customers with investment procedures ACCOUNT AND TRANSACTION POLICIES Business days and NAV calculations The funds' regular business days are the same as those of the New York Stock Exchange. The Service Prime Money Market Fund and Service Treasury Money Market Fund calculate their NAV every business day at 5:00 p.m. eastern time. The Service Federal and Service Tax Exempt Money Market Funds calculate their net asset value per share (NAV) every business day at 4:00 p.m. eastern time. Timing of orders Orders to buy or sell shares are executed at the next NAV calculated after the order has been accepted. Purchase and redemption orders for each fund must be received at the times indicated in the table below: Fund Cut-off Time Service Prime Money Market 5:00 p.m. Service Treasury Money Market 5:00 p.m. Service Federal Money Market 2:00 p.m. Service Tax Exempt Money Market 12:00 noon For the purchase to be effective and dividends to be earned on the same day, immediately available funds must be received by a fund by its close of business on that day. Service organizations will be responsible for transmitting accepted orders and payments to the funds within the time period agreed upon by them. A fund has the right to suspend redemption of shares as permitted by law and to postpone payment of proceeds for up to seven days. Timing of settlements When you buy shares, you will become the owner of record when a fund receives your payment. Redemption orders for each fund received by the respective cut-off times will be paid in immediately available funds, normally on the same day, according to instructions on file. When you sell shares that you recently purchased by check, your order will be executed at the next NAV but the proceeds will not be available until your check clears. This may take up to 15 days. Statements and reports The funds send monthly account statements as well as confirmations after each purchase or sale of shares (except reinvestments). Every six months, each fund sends out an annual or semi-annual report containing information on its holdings and a discussion of recent and anticipated market conditions and fund performance. Accounts with below-minimum balances If your account balance falls below the minimum for 30 days as a result of selling shares (and not because of performance), the fund reserves the right to request that you buy more shares or close your account. If your account balance is still below the minimum 60 days after notification, the fund reserves the right to close out your account and send the proceeds to the address of record. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS Substantially all income dividends are declared daily and paid monthly. If all of an investor's shares are redeemed during the month, accrued but unpaid dividends are paid with 12 | YOUR INVESTMENT -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the redemption proceeds. Shares of the funds earn dividends on the business day their purchase is effective, but not on the business day their redemption is effective. Dividends and distributions are reinvested in additional fund shares. Alternatively, you may instruct your financial professional or J.P. Morgan Funds Services to have them sent to you by check, credited to a separate account, or invested in another J.P. Morgan Institutional Fund. TAX CONSIDERATIONS In general, selling shares, exchanging shares, and receiving distributions (whether reinvested or taken in cash) are all taxable events. The transactions below typically create the following tax liabilities: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Transaction Tax status Income dividends from Prime Ordinary income Money Market, Treasury Money Market and Federal Money Market Funds Income dividends from Tax Generally exempt from federal Exempt Money Market Fund income taxes Short-term capital gains Ordinary income distributions Every January, each fund issues tax information on its distributions for the previous year. Any investor for whom a fund does not have a valid taxpayer identification number will be subject to backup withholding for taxes. The tax considerations described in this section do not apply to tax-deferred accounts or other non-taxable entities. Because each investor's tax circumstances are unique, please consult your tax professional about your fund investment. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shareholder Services Agent Morgan Christiana Center J.P. Morgan Funds Services - 2/OPS3 500 Stanton Christiana Road Newark, DE 19713 1-800-766-7722 Representatives are available 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. eastern time on fund business days. YOUR INVESTMENT | 13 FUND DETAILS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MASTER/FEEDER STRUCTURE As noted earlier, each fund is a "feeder" fund that invests in a master portfolio. (Except where indicated, this prospectus uses the term "the fund" to mean the feeder fund and its master portfolio taken together.) Each master portfolio accepts investments from other feeder funds, and all the feeders of a given master portfolio bear the portfolio's expenses in proportion to their assets. However, each feeder can set its own transaction minimums, fund-specific expenses, and other conditions. This means that one feeder could offer access to the same master portfolio on more attractive terms, or could experience better performance, than another feeder. Information about other feeders is available by calling 1-800-766-7722. Generally, when a master portfolio seeks a vote, its feeder fund will hold a shareholder meeting and cast its vote proportionately, as instructed by its shareholders. Fund shareholders are entitled to one full or fractional vote for each dollar or fraction of a dollar invested. Each feeder fund and its master portfolio expect to maintain consistent goals, but if they do not, the feeder fund will withdraw from the master portfolio, receiving its assets either in cash or securities. Each feeder fund's trustees would then consider whether the feeder fund should hire its own investment adviser, invest in a different master portfolio, or take other action. MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION The feeder funds described in this prospectus and their corresponding master portfolios are all governed by the same trustees. The trustees are responsible for overseeing all business activities. The trustees are assisted by Pierpont Group, Inc., which they own and operate on a cost basis; costs are shared by all funds governed by these trustees. Funds Distributor Inc., as co-administrator, along with J.P. Morgan, provides fund officers. J.P. Morgan, as co-administrator, oversees each fund's other service providers. J.P. Morgan, subject to the expense reimbursements described earlier in this prospectus, receives the following fees for investment advisory and other services: Advisory services 0.20% of the first $1 billion of each master portfolio's average net assets plus 0.10% over $1 billion Administrative services Master portfolio's and fund's (fee shared with Funds pro-rata portions of 0.09% of Distributor, Inc.) the first $7 billion of average net assets in J.P. Morgan- advised portfolios, plus 0.04% over $7 billion Shareholder services 0.05% of each fund's average net assets Each fund has a service plan which allows it to pay service organizations up to 0.25% of the average net assets of the shares held in the name of the service organization. J.P. Morgan may also pay fees to certain firms and professionals for providing recordkeeping or other services in connection with investments in a fund. 14 | FUND DETAILS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THIS PAGE IS LEFT BLANK INTENTIONALLY | 15 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS The financial tables are intended to help you understand each fund's financial performance for the past periods indicated. Certain information reflects financial results for a single fund share. The total returns in the tables represent the rate that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in a fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions). Except where noted, this information has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, whose reports, along with each fund's financial statements, are included in the respective fund's annual report, which are available upon request. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- J.P.
