JHF II 2011 Amended and Restated TA Agr

2.04 As-of Transactions. An “as-of” transaction is defined as a transaction processed at a time other than the time of the computation of net asset value per share next computed after receipt of such orders. The effective date of such transactions will be a date prior to the processing date. The difference in the share price between the “as-of” trade date and the processing date could result in a gain or loss to the Share class of a Portfolio and may increase or dilute the assets of the affected Share class or any dividends paid by the Portfolio with respect to such Share class during the Accumulation Period (as defined below).

(a) With respect to this Section 2.04:

(i) “Accumulation Period” shall mean a calendar year;

(ii) “Materiality” shall mean the point at which the net asset value of the Share class is impacted to the extent described in Section 2.04(a)(iii) below;

(iii) “As-of” impact will be considered material if the cumulative net effect is greater than or equal to $.005 per outstanding share over the Accumulation Period; and

(iv) Gains or losses that do not impact the net asset value (NAV) of the Share class (as described in Section 2.04(a)(iii)) of the Portfolio shall be deemed immaterial.

(b) With respect to the treatment of financial gains and losses resulting from “as-of” transactions in each Share class of the Portfolios, JHSS shall utilize a system to identify and track, at the Share class level, both on a daily and cumulative basis, the impact of all “as-of” transactions processed. This tracking will be reflected on the daily report prepared by JHSS. Daily and cumulative gain/loss balances will be reported “net” at the Share class level.

(c) If upon any day during the Accumulation Period, the cumulative net effect of “as-of” transactions on the Fund is negative and is greater than or equal to $.005 per outstanding share, JHSS will (i) notify the Fund; and (ii) work closely with the Fund to identify and resolve the loss amount. In addition, the Fund will cause its fund accounting agent to book the appropriate payable/receivable entry in order to “keep the Share class whole”.

(d) Upon confirmation of any such material cumulative loss within the relevant Accumulation Period, JHSS will reimburse the Fund in such amount as may be necessary to reduce the negative cumulative net effect to less than $.005 per outstanding share.

(e) For Selling Firm or Broker errors, JHSS shall make a reasonable attempt to recover any negative net effect upon a Fund over $100 from the Selling firm or broker that caused the error. At the end of each month, the receivables collected under this program shall be sent to the Fund. However, if a Selling Firm or Broker error had caused the cumulative negative net effect upon a Fund to exceed the threshold described in paragraph 2.04(c), prompting JHSS to make a payment to the Fund, the amount will be withheld from the collected amount by JHSS.

(f) JHSS shall supply to the Fund from time to time, as mutually agreed upon, reports summarizing the as-of transactions identified pursuant to this Section 2.04, and the daily and cumulative net effects of such as-of transactions, and shall advise the Fund at the end of each month of the net cumulative effect at such time. JHSS shall promptly advise the Fund if at any time the cumulative net effect is greater than or equal to $.005 per outstanding share. The cumulative net effect upon the Share class of each Portfolio shall be reset to zero for the transactions of the first business day of the next Accumulation Period.
