APPENDIX A
ADVISORY FEE SCHEDULES
     The Adviser shall serve as investment adviser for each Fund of the Trust listed below. The Trust will pay the Adviser, as full compensation for all services provided under this Agreement with respect to each Fund, the fee computed separately for such Fund at an annual rate as follows (the “Adviser Fee”).
     The term Aggregate Net Assets in the chart below includes the net assets of a Fund of the Trust. It also includes with respect to certain Funds as indicated in the chart the net assets of one or more other portfolios, but in each case only for the period during which the subadviser for the Fund also serves as the subadviser for the other portfolio(s) and only with respect to the net assets of such other portfolio(s) that are managed by the subadviser.
     For purposes of determining Aggregate Net Assets and calculating the Adviser Fee, the net assets of the Fund and each other fund of the Trust are determined as of the close of business on the previous business day of the Trust, and the net assets of each portfolio of each other fund are determined as of the close of business on the previous business day of that fund.
     The Adviser Fee for a Fund shall be based on the applicable annual fee rate for the Fund which for each day shall be equal to (i) the sum of the amounts determined by applying the annual percentage rates in the table to the applicable portions of Aggregate Net Assets divided by (ii) Aggregate Net Assets (the “Applicable Annual Fee Rate”). The Adviser Fee for each Fund shall be accrued and paid daily to the Adviser for each calendar day. The daily fee accruals will be computed by multiplying the fraction of one over the number of calendar days in the year by the Applicable Annual Fee Rate, and multiplying this product by the net assets of the Fund. Fees shall be paid either by wire transfer or check, as directed by the Adviser.
     If, with respect to any Fund, this Agreement becomes effective or terminates, or if the manner of determining the Applicable Annual Fee Rate changes, before the end of any month, the fee (if any) for the period from the effective date to the end of such month or from the beginning of such month to the date of termination or from the beginning of such month to the date of such change, as the case may be, shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period bears to the full month in which such effectiveness or termination or change occurs.

During the period during which PIMCO is the subadviser to the Portfolio, if Relationship Net Assets* equal or exceed $3 Billion, the following fee schedule shall apply:

*   The term Relationship Net Assets shall mean the aggregate net assets of all portfolios of the John Hancock Trust and the John Hancock Funds II that are subadvised by PIMCO. These funds currently include the Total Return Trust, the Real Return Bond Trust and the Global Bond Trust, each a series of the Trust, and the Total Return Fund, the Real Return Bond Fund and the Global Bond Fund, each a series of John Hancock Funds II.

It also includes with respect to the Portfolio the net assets of the Total Return Trust, a series of John Hancock Trust but only for the period during which the subadviser for the Portfolio also serves as the subadviser for the Total Return Trust. For purposes of determining Total Return Net Assets and calculating the Advisory Fee, the net assets of the Portfolio are determined as of the close of business on the previous business day of the Trust, and the net assets of the Total Return Trust are determined as of the close of business on the previous business day of that fund.
The Adviser Fee for a Portfolio shall be based on the applicable annual fee rate for the Portfolio which for each day shall be equal to (i) the sum of the amounts determined by applying the annual percentage rates in the table to the applicable portions of Total Return Net Assets divided by (ii) Total Return Net Assets (the “Applicable Annual Fee Rate”). The Adviser Fee for each Portfolio shall be accrued and paid daily to the Adviser for each calendar day. The daily fee accruals will be computed by multiplying the fraction of one over the number of calendar days in the year by the Applicable Annual Fee Rate, and multiplying this product by the net assets of the Portfolio. Fees shall be paid either by wire transfer or check, as directed by the Adviser.
If, with respect to any Portfolio, this Agreement becomes effective or terminates, or if the manner of determining the Applicable Annual Fee Rate changes, before the end of any month, the fee (if any) for the period from the effective date to the end of such month or from the beginning of such month to the date of termination or from the beginning of such month to the date such change, as the case may be, shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period bears to the full month in which such effectiveness or termination or change occurs.

The daily Adviser Fee for each Fund of Funds shall be the sum of the daily fee on Affiliated Fund Assets and the daily fee on Other Assets. Fees shall be paid either by wire transfer or check, as directed by the Adviser.

          (a) Fee on Affiliated Fund Assets. The fee on Affiliated Fund Assets is stated as an annual percentage of the current value of either the net assets or the Aggregate Net Assets (as applicable) of the Fund of Funds, in each case determined in accordance with the fee schedule set forth below for the Fund of Funds, and that percentage rate (the “Applicable Annual Affiliated Funds Fee Rate”) is applied to the Affiliated Fund Assets of the Fund of Funds. For each day, the Applicable Annual Affiliated Funds Fee Rate for the Fund of Funds shall be equal to (i) the sum of the amounts determined by applying the annual percentage rates for Affiliated Fund Assets in the fee schedule to the applicable portions of the net assets or Aggregate Net Assets of the Fund of Funds divided by (ii) the net assets or Aggregate Net Assets, as applicable, of the Fund of Funds. The daily fee accrual on Affiliated Fund Assets will be computed by multiplying the fraction of one over the number of calendar days in the year by the Applicable Annual Affiliated Funds Fee Rate, and multiplying this product by the Affiliated Fund Assets of the Fund of Funds.
          (b) Fee on Other Assets. The fee on Other Assets is stated as an annual percentage of the current value of either the net assets or the Aggregate Net Assets (as applicable) of the Fund of Funds, in each case determined in accordance with the fee schedule set forth below for the Fund of Funds, and that percentage rate (the “Applicable Annual Other Assets Fee Rate”) is applied to the Other Assets of the Fund of Funds. For each day, the Applicable Annual Other Assets Fee Rate for the Fund of Funds shall be equal to (i) the sum of the amounts determined by applying the annual percentage rates for Other Assets in the fee schedule to the applicable portions of the net assets or Aggregate Net Assets of the Fund of Funds, divided by (ii) the net assets or Aggregate Net Assets, as applicable, of the Fund of Funds. The daily fee accrual on Other Assets will be computed by multiplying the fraction of one over the number of calendar days in the year by the Applicable Annual Other Assets Fee Rate, and multiplying this product by the Other Assets of the Fund of Funds.
     Net assets, Aggregate Net Assets, Affiliated Fund Assets and Other Assets with respect to a Fund of Funds shall be determined as of the close of business on the previous business day of JHT for JHT Funds, as of the close of business on the previous business day of JHF II for JHF II Funds and as of the close of business on the previous business day of JHF III for JHF III Funds.
     If, with respect to any Fund of Funds, this Agreement becomes effective or terminates, or if the manner of determining the Applicable Annual Affiliated Funds Fee Rate or the Applicable Annual Other Assets Fee Rate changes, before the end of any month, the fee (if any) for the period from the effective date to the end of such month or from the beginning of such month to the date of termination or from the beginning of such month to the date such change, as the case may be, shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period bears to the full month in which such effectiveness or termination or change occurs.
