On June 15, 2002, Arthur Andersen LLP ("Arthur Andersen"), Bank One
Corporation's former independent public accountants, was convicted of federal
obstruction of justice. Bank One decided to no longer engage Arthur Andersen as
its principal accountants in 2001 and selected KPMG LLP to serve as its
independent public accountants for fiscal 2001. Arthur Andersen audited Bank
One's financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 and
December 31, 2000. As a result, you may have no effective remedy against Arthur
Andersen in connection with a material misstatement or omission in those
financial statements, particularly in the event that Arthur Andersen ceases to
exist or becomes insolvent as a result of the conviction or other proceedings
against it.
