Management fee	0.81		0.81	0.81	0.81	0.81		0.81

1	Distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees have been restated to reflect the Rule 12b-1 plan fee schedule effective July 1, 2019.
2	"Service plan fee" has been restated to reflect maximum allowable fees.
3	"Other expenses" have been restated from fiscal year amounts to reflect current fees and expenses.
4	The advisor contractually agrees to reduce its management fee or, if necessary, make payment to the fund, in an amount equal to the amount by which expenses of the fund exceed 0.88% of average daily net assets of the fund, and expenses of Class I and Class R6 shares exceed 0.98% and 0.88%, respectively, of average daily net assets attributable to the class. For purposes of these agreements, "expenses of the fund" means all fund expenses, excluding (a) taxes, (b) brokerage commissions, (c) interest expense, (d) litigation and indemnification expenses and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the fund's business, (e) class-specific expenses, (f) borrowing costs, (g) prime brokerage fees, (h) acquired fund fees and expenses paid indirectly, and (i) short dividend expense and "expenses of Class I and Class R6 shares" means expenses of the fund plus class-specific expenses. Each agreement expires on February 29, 2020, unless renewed by mutual agreement of the fund and the advisor based upon a determination that this is appropriate under the circumstances at that time. The advisor also contractually agrees to waive a portion of its management fee and/or reimburse expenses for the fund and certain other John Hancock funds according to an asset level breakpoint schedule that is based on the aggregate net assets of all the funds participating in the waiver or reimbursement. This waiver is allocated proportionally among the participating funds. During its most recent fiscal year, the fund's reimbursement amounted to 0.01% of the fund's average daily net assets. This agreement expires on June 30, 2020, unless renewed by mutual agreement of the fund and the advisor based upon a determination that this is appropriate under the circumstances at that time.
5	The distributor contractually agrees to limit its Rule 12b-1 fees for Class R4 shares to 0.15%. This agreement expires on February 29, 2020, unless renewed by mutual agreement of the fund and the distributor based upon a determination that this is appropriate under the circumstances at that time.

EXPENSE EXAMPLE

This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. Please see below a hypothetical example showing the expenses of a $10,000 investment for the time periods indicated and then, except as shown below, assuming you sell all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example assumes a 5% average annual return and that fund expenses will not change over the periods. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

Expenses ($)	A		C	I	R2	R4	R6
Shares		Sold	Not Sold
1 year	620	302	202	100	142	116	90
3 years	878	629	629	321	444	388	287
5 years	1,155	1,081	1,081	559	769	680	501
10 years	1,945	2,336	2,336	1,244	1,689	1,512	1,117
