Dear Shareholder:
Several weeks ago we mailed proxy material to shareholders of JPMorgan Funds regarding the upcoming Special Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for Thursday, January 20, 2005.At this time, the Funds’ records indicate that you have not yet cast your vote for the matters set forth in the proxy material. It is extremely important to vote your shares no matter the size of your investment.
The purpose of the meeting is to seek approval for a number of initiatives that the Trustees of JPMorgan have recently undertaken. These initiatives, as outlined on the enclosed proxy card, follow the July 1, 2004 merger of Bank One Corporation, the former parent of Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation, into JPMorgan Chase & Co. the parent of J.P. Morgan Investment Management.
The Board of Trustees of the JPMorgan Funds and the Board of Trustees of the One Group Funds approved these initiatives. They are designed to integrate the operations of the two fund families, streamline the operations and product offerings of the two fund complexes and take advantage of potential economies of scale that may result. Please see the proxy material previously mailed to you for additional information about the proposed initiatives to be voted upon for the meeting.
For your convenience we have set up three methods to cast your vote.
