Re: Amended and Restated Expense Limitation Agreement and Voluntary Expense Limitation Notice

With reference to the Advisory Agreement approved by the Board or entered into by and between John Hancock Investment Management LLC (the “Adviser”) and John Hancock Funds II (the “Trust”), as amended, on behalf of each series of the Trust (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”), we hereby notify you as follows:

1. The Adviser agrees to waive its management fee for each Fund or, to the extent necessary, bear other expenses, as set forth in the Appendices attached hereto. As noted in the Appendices, certain waivers are voluntary and may be terminated at any time by the Adviser upon notice to the Trust.

2. We understand and intend that the Trust will rely on this undertaking in overseeing the preparation and filing of Post-effective Amendments to the Registration Statement on Form N-1A for the Trust and the Funds with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in accruing each Fund’s expenses for purposes of calculating its net and gross asset value per share, and for other purposes permitted under Form N-1A and/or the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and we expressly permit the Trust so to rely.

A copy of the document establishing the Trust is filed with the Secretary of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This Agreement is executed by the officer in his capacity as such and not as an individual and is not binding upon any of the Trustees, officers or shareholders of the Trust individually but only upon the assets of the Funds.
