For immediate release
The Federal Reserve Board on Friday announced that public meetings will be held next

The purpose of these meetings is to collect information relating to factors the Board is
required to consider under the Bank Holding Company Act. These factors are the effects of
the proposal on the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of the
companies and banks involved in the proposal, competition in the relevant markets, and the
convenience and needs of the communities to be served. Convenience and needs
considerations include the records of performance of J. P. Morgan Chase and Bank One
under the Community Reinvestment Act.

Requests should be sent to John G. Ricketti, Vice President, Federal Reserve Bank of New
York, 33 Liberty Street, New York, New York 10045 (facsimile: 212-720-2845) for those
wishing to testify at the meeting to be held in New York, or Alicia Williams, Vice President,
Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, 230 South LaSalle Street, Chicago, Illinois 60604
(facsimile: 312-913-2626), for those wishing to testify at the meeting to be held in Chicago.
