JPMorgan and Pera Museum Partner to Tour Renowned Corporate Art Collection

JPMorgan announces a collaborative partnership with the Suna and
Inan Kirac Foundation's Pera Museum in Istanbul, Turkey to present
master artworks from the firm's JPMorgan Chase Art Collection as a
special exhibition. The exhibition, entitled: Collected Visions, will
feature 70 modern and contemporary works by leading artists of the
20th century in three floors of the Pera galleries.

Begun nearly 50 years ago by David Rockefeller when he was head of
Chase Manhattan Bank, the JPMorgan Chase Art Collection is one of the
oldest and most extensive corporate collections in the world. The
exhibition at the Pera Museum - on view October 26, 2007 through to
January 6, 2008 - marks the first time the firm has displayed many
museum-quality pieces in its modern and contemporary collection for an
international audience. It marks the start of a tour in which
Collected Visions will travel to other international cities where
JPMorgan has a presence.

"Collected Visions will be a unique opportunity to view many of
the distinguished artworks from the JPMorgan Chase Art Collection,"
said Murad Megalli, Senior Country Officer for JPMorgan in Turkey. "We
are delighted that this rare, modern and contemporary art exhibition
will travel to Turkey, where JPMorgan has done business for more than
100 years. As a leading financial institution, the firm is committed
to enriching the communities and culture of the areas where we operate
around the world."

Commenting on the upcoming art show, Ozalp Birol, General Manager
of the Suna and Inan Kirac Foundation Culture and Arts Enterprises
said, "The Collected Visions exhibition the Pera Museum helps
demonstrate the value of a corporate art collection and acts as an
incentive in guiding Turkish private sector corporations and
institutions towards collecting. We are proud to be working with
JPMorgan and honoring their cultural leadership on this project."

The Collected Visions exhibit will feature painting, sculpture,
photography and works on paper from 41 Americans and 18 international
artists. The selected works date back to 1959, when the firm's
corporate art program was started, and includes recent acquisitions
representing today's art.

The exhibition will feature works by leading artists, including
Dan Flavin, Josef Albers, Milton Avery, Romare Bearden, Jean Dubuffet,
Roy Lichtenstein, Cindy Sherman and Jean-Michel Basquiat. Several
pieces are included because of their association with American pop
culture, including Andy Warhol's silkscreened images of Marilyn
Monroe. Contemporary abstract oils by Turkish painter Canan Tolon will
also be exhibited.

"We are thrilled to be able to share many of the leading works in
the JPMorgan Chase Art Collection, normally viewed by a limited
audience, with a broader set of clients, employees and communities,"
said Lisa K. Erf, Director, JPMorgan Chase Art Collection. "We hope to
encourage more companies to grow and share their collections, as
well."

The JPMorgan Chase Art Collection reflects the firm's historic
roots and a legacy of philanthropy going back to two of its founders,
David Rockefeller and J. Pierpont Morgan. The collection represents
the holdings of more than a dozen heritage firms. The roots of the
collection and philosophy of art in the workplace began with the
building of the One Chase Manhattan Plaza building in New York's lower
Manhattan financial district. The firm embraced a modern building
design that incorporated contemporary art in the workplace. Since that
time, JPMorgan Chase has included arts and culture in its
philanthropic programs and integrated art in its corporate locations
around the globe including offices in London, Paris, Frankfurt, Tokyo,
Singapore, Buenos Aires and Sao Paolo. It is now recognized as a
leader in the field of corporate collections and credited with a model
that has been emulated across the world.

Educational programs for children, university students and adults
will be organized for community participation, and a fully illustrated
catalogue will be published on the occasion of the exhibition.
