Summary of loan loss experience:

For significant accounting policies and details regarding our loan loss
experience for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, refer to pages
67-69 and pages 91-92 of J.P. Morgan's 1999 Annual Report to Stockholders
incorporated herein by reference. (See Exhibit 13 to this Form 10-K). In
addition, the tables below provide a summary of credit loss experience for the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995.

Allowances for credit losses

Prior to December 31, 1996, our reserves and allowances for credit losses were
displayed in the aggregate as a reduction of loans in our Consolidated balance
sheet. Beginning December 31, 1996, in accordance with the American Institute
of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Banks and Savings Institutions Audit
Guide, the aggregate allowance was apportioned and displayed as a reduction to
loans, as a reduction of trading assets related to determining the fair value of
our derivatives portfolio, and as other liabilities related to off-balance-sheet
lending commitments. Amounts were allocated based on assigning specific
counterparty, industry, and country allocations based on product or balance
sheet caption of the underlying counterparty exposure; amounts related to the
general component were proportionally allocated to balance sheet captions based
on an assessment of the level of risk of the underlying exposures.

(a)     Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were 0.05%, and 0.01%
        for 1996 and 1995, respectively.
(b)     Not reflected in the above table are transfers to the international
        portion of the allowance from the domestic portion of $23 million in
        1996.
(c)     Balance at January 1, 1996 represents the aggregate allowance.
        Reclassifications represent the estimated apportionment of the aggregate
        allowance at December 31, 1995 as well as changes across balance sheet
        captions for allowances during 1996.  Reclassifications had no impact on
        net income and, accordingly, were not shown on the Consolidated
        statement of income.  Subsequent to July 1, 1998, reclassifications
        across balance sheet captions for allowances are reflected as provisions
        or reversals of provisions in the Consolidated statement of income.  If
        reclassifications prior to July 1, 1998 were included in the
        Consolidated statement of income, these captions would change as
        follows, with no impact on net income: in 1996, Provision for loan
        losses would decrease by $307 million, Trading revenue would decrease by
        $196 million, and Other revenue would decrease by $111 million.
(d)     1995 summarizes the activity of the aggregate allowance for credit
        losses that was shown as a reduction of loans in 1995.

The following table summarizes the activity of the allowance for credit losses
on lending commitments for the year ended December 31, 1996.

(a)During 1999, we revised our model for calculating expected credit losses to
incorporate factors for estimating loss previously included in our country,
industry, expected loss, and general components of our allowances. For
disclosure purposes, the country, industry, expected loss, and general
components of prior periods have been aggregated and included in the expected
loss caption in the above table.

Cross-border and local outstandings under the regulatory basis:

The following presents our cross-border and local outstandings under the
regulatory basis established by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination
Council (FFIEC). Bank regulatory rules differ from management's view in the
treatment of credit derivatives, trading account short positions, and the use of
fair value versus cost of investment securities. In addition, management does
not net local funding or liabilities against any local exposures as allowed by
the FFIEC. Refer to page 50 of J.P. Morgan's 1999 Annual Report to Stockholders
incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 13 to this Form 10-K for more
