Supplement dated November 2, 2006
to the Prospectuses as dated above

Market Timing Procedures. Effective November 1, 2006 (the “Effective Date”), the language in the Prospectuses for the above referenced funds (the “Funds”) concerning market timing and redemption fee procedures was revised. In connection with these changes, the existing disclosure concerning market timing in the sections entitled “How To Do Business with the Fund(s) — When can I buy shares?” or “How Your Account Works — Purchasing Fund Shares” of the Prospectuses is hereby replaced with the following effective on the Effective Date:

The JPMorgan Funds do not authorize market timing and, except for the Funds identified below, use reasonable methods to identify market timers and to prevent such activity. However, there can be no assurance that these methods will prevent market timing or other trading that may be deemed abusive. Market timing is an investment strategy using frequent purchases, redemptions and/or exchanges in an attempt to profit from short-term market movements. Market timing may result in dilution of the value of Fund shares held by long-term shareholders, disrupt portfolio management and increase Fund expenses for all shareholders. Although market timing may affect any Fund, these risks may be higher for Funds that invest significantly in non-U.S. securities or thinly traded securities (e.g., certain small cap securities), such as international, global or emerging market funds or small cap funds. For example, when a Fund invests in securities trading principally in non-U.S. markets that close prior to the close of the NYSE, market timers may seek to take advantage of the difference between the prices of these securities at the close of their non-U.S. markets and the value of such securities when the Fund calculates its net asset value. The JPMorgan Funds or the Distributor will prohibit any purchase order (including exchanges) with respect to one investor, a related group of investors or their agent(s), where they detect a pattern of either purchases and sales of one of the JPMorgan Funds, or exchanges between or among the JPMorgan Funds, that indicates market timing or trading that they determine is abusive.

•  
  The JPMorgan Funds’ Board of Trustees has adopted policies and procedures that use a variety of methods to identify market timers, including reviewing “round trips” in and out of the JPMorgan Funds by investors. A “round trip” includes a purchase or exchange into a Fund followed or preceded by a redemption or exchange out of the same Fund. If the Distributor detects that you have completed two round trips within 60 days in the same Fund, the Distributor will reject your purchase and exchange orders for a period of at least 90 days. For subsequent violations, the Distributor may, in its sole discretion, reject your purchase and exchange orders temporarily or permanently. In identifying market timers, the Distributor may also consider activity of accounts that it believes to be under common ownership or control.

•  
  Market timers may disrupt portfolio management and harm Fund performance. To the extent that the Funds are unable to identify market timers effectively, long-term investors may be adversely affected. Although the JPMorgan Funds use a variety of methods to detect and deter market timing, there is no assurance that the Funds’ own operational systems and procedures will identify and eliminate all market-timing strategies. For example, certain accounts, which are known as omnibus accounts, include multiple investors and such accounts typically provide the Funds with a net purchase or redemption order on any given day where purchasers of Fund shares and redeemers of Fund shares are netted against one another and the identity of individual purchasers and redeemers are not known by the Fund. While the Funds seek to monitor for market timing activities in omnibus accounts, the netting effect limits the Funds’ ability to locate and eliminate individual market timers. As a

  result, the Funds are often dependent upon Financial Intermediaries who utilize their own policies and procedures to identify market timers. These policies and procedures may be different than those utilized by the Funds.

•  
  The Funds have attempted to put safeguards in place to assure that Financial Intermediaries have implemented procedures designed to deter market timing and abusive trading. Despite these safeguards, there is no assurance that the Funds will be able to effectively identify and eliminate market timing and abusive trading in the Funds particularly with respect to omnibus accounts.

•  
  The JPMorgan Funds will seek to apply the Funds’ market timing policies and restrictions as uniformly as practicable to accounts with the Funds, except with respect to the following:

1.
  Trades that occur through omnibus accounts at Financial Intermediaries as described above,

2.
  Purchases, redemptions and exchanges made on a systematic basis,

3.
  Automatic reinvestments of dividends and distributions,

4.
  Purchases, redemptions or exchanges that are part of a rebalancing program, such as a wrap program, or

5.
  Bona fide asset allocation programs.

Please see the Statement of Additional Information for a further description of these arrangements.

•  
  Certain of the JPMorgan Funds are intended for short-term investment horizons and do not monitor for market timers or prohibit such short-term trading activity. Those Funds are the JPMorgan Enhanced Income Fund, JPMorgan Short Duration Bond Fund, JPMorgan Short Term Bond Fund, JPMorgan Short Term Bond Fund II, JPMorgan Short Term Municipal Bond Fund, JPMorgan Tax Aware Enhanced Income Fund, JPMorgan Tax Aware Short-Intermediate Income Fund, JPMorgan Treasury & Agency Fund, JPMorgan Ultra Short Duration Bond Fund and the JPMorgan money market funds. Although these Funds are managed in a manner that is consistent with their investment objectives, frequent trading by shareholders may disrupt their management and increase their expenses.

•  
  In addition to rejecting purchase orders in connection with suspected market timing activities, the Distributor can reject a purchase order (including purchase orders for the Funds listed above) for any reason, including purchase orders that it does not think are in the best interests of a Fund and/or its shareholders or if it determines the trading to be abusive. Your Financial Intermediary may also have additional procedures for identifying market timers and rejecting or otherwise restricting purchase orders and/or exchanges.

Redemption Fee Procedures. In addition to the changes outlined above, the following disclosure replaces the existing disclosure concerning redemption fees in the section entitled “How to do Business with the Funds — Do I pay a redemption fee?” of the Prospectuses for the JPMorgan International Equity Fund and the JPMorgan International Value Fund effective on the Effective Date:

Do I pay a redemption fee?

•  
  If you sell or exchange your shares of the JPMorgan Asia Equity Fund, the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Debt Fund, the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Equity Fund, the JPMorgan High Yield Bond Fund, the JPMorgan International Equity Fund, JPMorgan International Growth Fund, the JPMorgan International Opportunities Fund, the JPMorgan Intrepid International Fund, the JPMorgan International Small Cap Equity Fund, the JPMorgan International Value Fund, the JPMorgan Intrepid European Fund, and the JPMorgan Japan Fund (collectively, the “Redemption Fee Funds”) within 60 days of purchase or exchange into the Fund, you will pay a redemption fee of 2.00% of the value of the shares sold in addition to any applicable CDSC. The day after your purchase order is accepted (i.e., trade date




   
  plus 1) is considered the first day for purposes of calculating the 60-day holding period. Shares acquired in conjunction with a Fund merger, the transfer of substantially all of the assets of a common or collective fund, or the substitution of a Fund for an existing investment alternative by an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to be held for 60 days for purposes of calculating the 60 day holding period.

•  
  The redemption fee does not apply to:

1.
  Shares acquired through reinvested distributions (dividends and capital gains),

2.
  Shares purchased by mutual fund wrap fee programs,

3.
  Shares redeemed in connection with death or disability (as defined in Section 72(m)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code) within one year of such death or disability,

4.
  Shares redeemed as part of a termination of certain employer-sponsored retirement plans,

5.
  Redemption of an employer-sponsored retirement plan’s entire share position with the Fund,

6.
  Involuntary redemptions resulting from a failure to maintain the required minimum balance in an account or involuntary forfeiture of shares by a participant of an employee benefit plan,

7.
  Shares redeemed by balance forward qualified retirement plans,

8.
  Shares redeemed by a “fund of funds” such as the JPMorgan Investor Funds or JPMorgan SmartRetirement Funds provided the “fund of funds” is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940,

9.
  Shares redeemed on a systematic basis, including shares redeemed as a result of required minimum distributions under certain employer-sponsored retirement plans or IRAs or as part of a rebalancing program,

10.
  Shares obtained through operation of the conversion feature applicable to Class B Shares,

11.
  Shares redeemed by 529 Plans including shares redeemed as the result of rebalancing or as a result of participant direction, and

12.
  Shares redeemed as part of a bona fide asset allocation program.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a redemption fee may be charged in the event that the Distributor determines that any redemptions potentially falling into one of the categories listed above are being used as a market timing strategy. The Statement of Additional Information contains additional details concerning redemption fees. Your Financial Intermediary may not recognize the same exceptions to the imposition of a redemption fee. Check with your Financial Intermediary for more details.

•  
  The redemption fees are paid to the Redemption Fee Funds and are designed to offset the brokerage commissions, capital gains impact, and other costs associated with fluctuations in fund asset levels and cash flow caused by short-term shareholder trading. The Redemption Fee Funds do not impose a redemption fee if the amount of such fee would be less than $50. Your Financial Intermediary may have a lower minimum or no minimum for charging redemption fees. Check with your Financial Intermediary for more details.

•  
  The Redemption Fee Funds often do not have direct access to shareholder information and are dependent upon Financial Intermediaries to apply redemption fees to Redemption Fee Fund accounts held by such Financial Intermediaries on behalf of multiple investors. These accounts, which may




    
  include omnibus accounts or retirement plan accounts typically, provide the Redemption Fee Funds with a net purchase or redemption request on any given day where purchasers of Redemption Fee Fund shares and redeemers of Redemption Fee Fund shares are netted against one another. In these circumstances, the identity of individual purchasers and redeemers whose orders are aggregated are not known by the Redemption Fee Funds. While the Redemption Fee Funds may request information concerning individual shareholders, the Funds generally must rely on the Financial Intermediary to identify shareholders who should be charged a redemption fee as well as to collect the redemption fee and remit it to the Redemption Fee Funds. There is no assurance that such Financial Intermediaries will be effective or uniform in applying the redemption fees to underlying accounts or that such Financial Intermediaries will assess, collect or remit such redemption fees.

Portfolio Holdings Disclosure Policy. In addition to the changes outlined above, the following disclosure replaces the existing disclosure concerning portfolio holdings in the section entitled “Shareholder Information — Portfolio Holdings Disclosure” of the Prospectuses for the JPMorgan International Equity Fund and the JPMorgan International Value Fund effective on the Effective Date:
