Amendment to

Management Fee Waiver Agreement

Between JNL Series Trust and

Jackson National Asset Management, LLC


This Amendment, is made by and between JNL Series Trust (the “Trust”) on behalf of the funds listed on Schedule A (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) and Jackson National Asset Management, LLC (the “Adviser”).

Whereas, the Trust and the Adviser entered into a Management Fee Waiver Agreement dated April 30, 2012 (“Agreement”), whereby the Adviser agreed to waive, for each Fund listed on Schedule A, a portion of its advisory fee in the amounts listed on Schedule A, as it may be amended and approved by the Board of Trustees from time to time.

Whereas, the parties desire to amend Schedule A of the Agreement to include a fee waiver for the JNL/FPA + DoubleLine Flexible Allocation Fund, effective April 25, 2016, pursuant to the terms set forth in the Agreement; and to remove the JNL/Mellon Capital Global Alpha Fund and respective fee waiver, since the JNL/Mellon Capital Global Alpha Fund was previously merged into the JNL/AQR Managed Futures Strategy Fund of the Trust.

Now Therefore, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the Trust and the Adviser agree as follows:

1.
Schedule A to the Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with Schedule A dated April 25, 2016, attached hereto.

2.
This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, which together shall constitute one document.

In Witness Whereof, the parties have caused this Amendment to be executed, effective as of April 25, 2016.
