funds, and to institutional customers. We also offer specialized property and aviation retrocession products. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As at December&nbsp;31,

company incorporated under the Insurance Companies Act. MFC was incorporated on April&nbsp;26, 1999 for the purpose of becoming the publicly traded holding company of MLI following its demutualization. MLI was incorporated on June&nbsp;23, 1887, by
a Special Act of Parliament of the Dominion of Canada. Pursuant to the provisions of the <I>Canadian and British Insurance Companies Act</I> (Canada), the predecessor legislation to the Insurance Companies Act, MLI undertook a plan of mutualization
and became a mutual life insurance company on December&nbsp;19, 1968. As a mutual life insurance company, MLI had no common shareholders and its Board of Directors was elected by its participating policyholders in accordance with the Insurance
Companies Act. Pursuant to Letters Patent of Conversion, effective September&nbsp;23, 1999, MLI implemented a plan of demutualization under the Insurance Companies Act and converted to a life insurance company with common shares and became a wholly
owned subsidiary of MFC. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Asia Division </B></P>

Before deciding whether to invest in the notes, you should carefully consider the risks relating to Manulife and the other information in this prospectus supplement, the prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus
supplement and the prospectus, including the risks and uncertainties discussed under &#147;Risk Management,&#148; &#147;Risk Factors&#148; and &#147;Critical Accounting and Actuarial Policies&#148; in the management&#146;s discussion and analysis in
the Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">40-F.</FONT> The risks and uncertainties described below, in the prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference are not the only ones we may face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are
unaware of, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, may also become important factors that affect us. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely
affected, with the result that the trading price of the notes could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Because the
indenture contains no limit on the amount of additional debt that we may incur, our ability to make timely payments on the notes you hold may be affected by the amount and terms of our future debt. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our ability to make timely payments on our outstanding debt may depend on the amount and terms of our other obligations, including any notes.
The indenture does not contain any limitation on the amount of indebtedness or other liabilities that we or any of our subsidiaries may incur in the future, including additional senior debt securities and subordinated debt securities. As we issue
additional notes under the indenture or incur other indebtedness, unless our earnings grow in proportion to our debt and other fixed charges, our ability to service the notes on a timely basis may become impaired. We expect that we will from time to
time incur additional debt and other liabilities. In addition, MFC is not restricted from paying dividends on or repurchasing its securities under the indenture. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The value of the notes will be affected by the general creditworthiness of MFC. Real or anticipated changes in credit ratings on the notes may
affect the market value of the notes. No assurance can be given that any credit rating assigned to the notes will not be lowered or withdrawn entirely by the relevant rating agency. In addition, real or anticipated changes in credit ratings could
adversely impact the marketability of the insurance and wealth management products offered by MFC and could affect the cost at which MFC obtains funding, thereby affecting MFC&#146;s liquidity, business, financial condition or results of operations.
Credit rating agencies remain concerned with: our capital and net earnings volatility associated with fair-value accounting; net exposures to equity markets and lower interest rates; and challenges associated with managing <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">in-force</FONT> long term care, universal life with secondary guarantees and variable annuity products in the United States. Some credit rating agencies also view our financial leverage and earnings coverage metrics as not
meeting expectations. There can be no guarantee that downgrades will not occur. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Our holding company structure may adversely affect the ability of

from its insurance and other subsidiaries as the principal source of cash flow to meet its obligations with respect to its indebtedness (including the notes). As a result, MFC&#146;s cash flows and ability to service its obligations, including the
notes, are dependent upon the earnings of its subsidiaries and the distribution of those earnings and other funds by its subsidiaries to it. Substantially all of MFC&#146;s business is currently conducted through its subsidiaries. In addition, the
Superintendent is considering capital requirements for MLI on a standalone basis that could further restrict dividends and other distributions to MFC. </P>

payment of any dividend on shares of an insurance company if there are reasonable grounds for believing: (i)&nbsp;the company does not have adequate capital and adequate and appropriate forms of
liquidity; or (ii)&nbsp;the declaration or the payment of the dividend would cause the company to be in contravention of any regulation made under the Insurance Companies Act respecting the maintenance of adequate capital and adequate and
appropriate forms of liquidity, or of any direction made to the company by the Superintendent. All of our U.S. and Asian operating life insurance companies are subsidiaries of MLI. Accordingly, a restriction on dividends from MLI would prevent MFC
from obtaining dividends from its U.S. and Asian insurance businesses. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Certain of MFC&#146;s U.S. insurance subsidiaries also are subject
to insurance laws in Michigan, New York, Massachusetts and Vermont, the jurisdictions in which these subsidiaries are domiciled, which impose general limitations on the payment of dividends and other upstream distributions by these subsidiaries to
MLI. Our Asian insurance subsidiaries are also subject to restrictions in the jurisdictions in which these subsidiaries are domiciled which could affect their ability to pay dividends to MLI in certain circumstances. In addition, the ability of
MFC&#146;s insurance subsidiaries to pay dividends to MFC in the future will depend on their earnings and regulatory restrictions. These subsidiaries are subject to a variety of insurance and other laws and regulations that vary by jurisdiction and
are intended to protect policyholders and beneficiaries in that jurisdiction first and foremost, rather than investors. These subsidiaries are generally required to maintain solvency and capital standards as set by their local regulators and may
also be subject to other regulatory restrictions, all of which may limit the ability of subsidiary companies to pay dividends or make distributions to MFC. Such limits could have a material adverse effect on MFC&#146;s liquidity, including its
ability to service its debt, including the notes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Potential changes to regulatory capital and actuarial and accounting standards could
also limit the ability of the insurance subsidiaries to pay dividends or make distributions and could have a material adverse effect on MFC&#146;s liquidity and on internal capital mobility, including on MFC&#146;s ability to service its debt,
including the notes. We may be required to raise additional capital, which could be dilutive to existing shareholders, or to limit the new business we write, or to pursue actions that would support capital needs but adversely impact our subsequent
earnings potential. In addition, the timing and outcome of these initiatives could have a significantly adverse impact on our competitive position relative to that of other Canadian and international financial institutions with which we compete for
business and capital. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">MFC seeks to maintain capital in its insurance subsidiaries in excess of the minimum required in all jurisdictions
in which MFC does business. The minimum requirements in each jurisdiction may increase due to regulatory changes and we may decide to maintain additional capital in our operating subsidiaries to fund expected growth of the business or to deal with
changes in the risk profile of such subsidiaries. Any such increases in the level of capital may reduce the ability of the operating companies to pay dividends and have a material adverse effect on MFC&#146;s liquidity. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The notes are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries and the notes will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of our
subsidiaries. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The notes are obligations exclusively of MFC and are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries, and our subsidiaries
have no obligation to pay any amounts due on the notes. Furthermore, except to the extent MFC has a priority or equal claim against its subsidiaries as a creditor, the notes will be structurally subordinated to debt and preferred stock at the
subsidiary level because, as the common shareholder of its subsidiaries, MFC will be subject to the prior claims of creditors of its subsidiaries. As a result, a holder of notes will not have any claim as a creditor against our subsidiaries.
Accordingly, the notes are structurally subordinated to all liabilities of MFC&#146;s subsidiaries, including liabilities to policyholders and contract holders. Therefore, holders of notes should rely only on MFC&#146;s assets for payments on the
notes. As of December&nbsp;31, 2016, MFC&#146;s subsidiaries had $6,726&nbsp;million of long-term debt and capital instruments<I>.</I> </P>

Senior Indebtedness of MFC that permits the holders to accelerate the maturity of such Senior Indebtedness, the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the notes will not be paid unless and until such default has been cured, waived or ceased
to exist. Upon the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness, by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, all principal, premium, if any, and interest on such matured Senior Indebtedness must first be paid in full prior to any payment in respect of the
notes. As of December&nbsp;31, 2016, MFC had $5,689&nbsp;million of Senior Indebtedness and $461&nbsp;million of Subordinated Indebtedness outstanding. MFC does not currently have any Policy Liabilities. </P>

subsidiaries of MLI, a restriction on dividends from MLI would prevent MFC from obtaining dividends from its U.S. and Asian insurance businesses. Certain of MFC&#146;s U.S. insurance subsidiaries also are subject to insurance laws in Michigan, New
York, Massachusetts and Vermont, the jurisdictions in which these subsidiaries are domiciled, which impose general limitations on the payment of dividends and other upstream distributions by these subsidiaries to MLI. Our Asian insurance
subsidiaries are also subject to restrictions which could affect their ability to pay dividends to MLI in certain circumstances. In addition, the payment of other upstream distributions by the Company&#146;s insurance subsidiaries is limited under

at the subsidiary level because, as the common shareholder of its subsidiaries, MFC will be subject to the prior claims of creditors of its subsidiaries. Consequently, the notes are structurally subordinated to all liabilities of any of MFC&#146;s
subsidiaries, including liabilities to policyholders and contract holders. Substantially all of MFC&#146;s business is currently conducted through its subsidiaries, and MFC expects this to continue. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the opinion of Torys LLP, there are currently no reasons under the present laws of the Province of Ontario or the federal laws of Canada
applicable therein for avoiding recognition of the judgments of New York Courts on the indenture in respect of the notes based upon public policy. However, it may be difficult for holders of the notes to effect service within the United States upon
the Company&#146;s directors and officers and the experts named in this prospectus supplement and the prospectus who are not residents of the United States. The Company has designated John Hancock Life Insurance Company (U.S.A.) as the
Company&#146;s authorized agent upon whom process may be served in a legal action or proceeding against the Company arising out of or in connection with the indenture. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Based on the opinion of Torys LLP, the Company believes that a monetary judgment of a United States court predicated solely upon the civil
liability provisions of United States federal securities laws would likely be enforceable in Canada if the United States court in which the judgment was obtained had a basis for jurisdiction in the matter that was recognized by a Canadian court for
such purposes. It is less certain that an action could be brought in Canada in the first instance on the basis of liability predicated solely upon such laws. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The recognition and enforceability in the Province of Ontario of any such judgment of the New York Court may be limited by applicable Canadian
federal and provincial bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">winding-up</FONT> or other similar laws generally affecting the enforceability of creditors&#146; rights. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the <I>Currency Act</I> (Canada), a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of Ontario may only award judgment for a sum of
money in Canadian currency, and in enforcing a foreign judgment for a sum of money in a foreign currency, a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of Ontario will render its decision in the Canadian currency equivalent of such foreign
currency calculated at the rate of exchange determined in accordance with the <I>Courts of Justice Act</I> (Ontario), which rate of exchange may be the rate in existence on a day other than the day of payment of the judgment. </P>

any, of settlement in immediately available funds on trading activity in the notes. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for notes in definitive form, no Global Security may be transferred except as a whole by DTC to a nominee of DTC

organizations which are participants in such systems. Clearstream and Euroclear will hold interests on behalf of their participants through customers&#146; securities accounts in Clearstream&#146;s and Euroclear&#146;s names on the books of their
respective depositaries, which in turn will hold such interests in customers&#146; securities accounts in the depositaries&#146; names on the books of DTC. Citibank, N.A. will act as depositary for Clearstream and JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. will act

registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5&nbsp;million issues of U.S. and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> equity
issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC&#146;s participants (&#147;<I>Direct Participants</I>&#148;) deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct
Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges in Direct Participants&#146; accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities
certificates. Direct Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust&nbsp;&amp; Clearing Corporation
(&#147;<I>DTCC</I>&#148;). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such

DTC&#146;s records. The ownership interest of each Beneficial Owner is in turn to be recorded on the records of Direct Participants and Indirect Participants. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase.
Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct Participants or Indirect Participants through which such Beneficial
Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in notes are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing
their ownership interests in the notes, except in the limited circumstances that may be provided in the indenture, as the case may be. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To
facilitate subsequent transfers, all notes deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC&#146;s partnership nominee, Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC.
The deposit of the notes with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co. or such other DTC nominee do not affect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the notes. DTC&#146;s
records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such securities are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following is a discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the purchase, ownership and disposition of the
notes by U.S. Holders (as defined below) that purchase the notes at their issue price (generally the first price at which a substantial amount of the notes is sold, excluding sales to bond houses, brokers or similar persons or organizations acting
in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers) pursuant to this offering and hold such notes as capital assets. This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &#147;Code&#148;), U.S. Treasury
regulations promulgated or proposed thereunder and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, all as in effect on the date hereof, and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, or to different interpretation.
This discussion does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to specific U.S. Holders in light of their particular circumstances (including U.S. Holders that are directly or indirectly related to the
Company) or to U.S. Holders subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law (such as banks, insurance companies, dealers in securities or other U.S. Holders that generally mark their securities to market for U.S. federal income tax
purposes, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> entities, retirement plans, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, certain former citizens or residents of the United States, U.S. Holders that hold a note as part
of a straddle, hedge, conversion or other integrated transaction or U.S. Holders that have a &#147;functional currency&#148; other than the U.S. dollar). This discussion does not address any U.S. state or local or
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> tax considerations or any U.S. federal estate, gift or alternative minimum tax considerations. </P>

(i)&nbsp;an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii)&nbsp;a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii)&nbsp;an estate the income of which
is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source or (iv)&nbsp;a trust (x)&nbsp;with respect to which a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over its administration and one or more U.S. persons have the
authority to control all of its substantial decisions or (y)&nbsp;that has in effect a valid election under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. </P>

issued with more than <I>de minimis</I> original issue discount (&#147;OID&#148;). However, if the notes are issued with more than <I>de minimis</I> OID, each U.S. Holder generally will be required to include OID in income (as interest) as it
accrues, regardless of its regular method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes, using a constant yield method, before such U.S. Holder receives any payment attributable to such income. The remainder of this discussion assumes that the
notes are not issued with more than de minimis OID. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Interest income on the notes generally will be treated as income from sources outside

reference in this prospectus. In addition, our representatives may make forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, the media and others. All such statements are made pursuant to the &#147;safe harbour&#148; provisions of Canadian
provincial securities laws and the <I>U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995</I>. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The forward-looking statements in this
prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to MFC&#146;s possible or assumed future results set out under &#147;Corporate Strategy&#148;, &#147;General
Development of the Business&#148;, and &#147;Business Operations&#148; in our most recent annual information form, which we refer to as our AIF, and in the management&#146;s discussion and analysis in our most recent annual report and our most
recent interim financial report. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The forward-looking statements in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this
prospectus also relate to, among other things, MFC&#146;s objectives, goals, strategies, intentions, plans, beliefs, expectations and estimates, and can generally be identified by the use of words such as &#147;may&#148;, &#147;will&#148;,

import, and include statements concerning possible or assumed future results. Although MFC believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, such statements involve risks and uncertainties, and undue
reliance should not be placed on such statements and they should not be interpreted as confirming market or analysts&#146; expectations in any way. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Certain material factors or assumptions are applied in making forward-looking statements, including those described under &#147;Key Planning

in such statements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations include but are not limited

any combination of the Securities described in this prospectus in one or more offerings up to an aggregate principal amount of US$5,000,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies or currency units) or, if any Debt Securities are issued at an
original issue discount, such greater amount as shall result in an aggregate issue price of US$5,000,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies or currency units). Each time we sell Securities under the registration statement, we will provide a

experts named in this prospectus who are not residents of the United States or to enforce against them, both in and outside of the United States, judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon civil liability under United States federal
securities laws. We believe that a monetary judgment of a United States court predicated solely upon civil liability under United States federal securities laws would likely be enforceable in Canada if the United States court in which the judgment
was obtained had a basis for jurisdiction in the matter that was recognized by a Canadian court for such purposes. We cannot assure you that this will be the case. It is less certain that an action could be brought in Canada in the first instance on
the basis of liability predicated solely upon such laws. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">MFC is a life insurance company incorporated under the ICA. MFC was incorporated on April&nbsp;26, 1999 for the purpose of becoming the
publicly traded holding company of MLI following its demutualization. MLI was incorporated on June&nbsp;23, 1887, by a Special Act of Parliament of the Dominion of Canada. Pursuant to the provisions of the <I>Canadian and British Insurance Companies
Act</I> (Canada), the predecessor legislation to the ICA, MLI undertook a plan of mutualization and became a mutual life insurance company on December&nbsp;19, 1968. As a mutual life insurance company, MLI had no common shareholders and its Board of
Directors was elected by its participating policyholders in accordance with the ICA. Pursuant to Letters Patent of Conversion, effective September&nbsp;23, 1999, MLI implemented a plan of demutualization under the ICA and converted to a life
insurance company with common shares and became a wholly owned subsidiary of MFC. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We are a leading provider of financial protection and

earnings and other funds by its subsidiaries to MFC. Substantially all of MFC&#146;s business is currently conducted through its subsidiaries, and MFC expects this to continue. </P>

(ii)&nbsp;the declaration or the payment of the dividend would cause the company to be in contravention of any regulation made under the ICA respecting the maintenance of adequate capital and adequate and appropriate forms of liquidity, or of any
direction made to the company by the Superintendent. All of our U.S. and Asian operating life insurance companies are subsidiaries of MLI. Accordingly, a restriction on dividends from MLI would prevent MFC from obtaining dividends from its U.S. and

limitations on the payment of dividends and other upstream distributions by these subsidiaries to MLI. Our Asian insurance subsidiaries are also subject to restrictions in the jurisdictions in
which these subsidiaries are domiciled which could affect their ability to pay dividends to MLI in certain circumstances. Accordingly, the Debt Securities will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries,

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The ICA contains restrictions on the purchase or other acquisition, issue, transfer and voting of the shares of MFC. Pursuant to these
restrictions, no person is permitted to acquire any shares of MFC if the acquisition would cause the person to have a &#147;significant interest&#148; in any class of shares of MFC unless the prior approval of the Minister of Finance is obtained.
The restrictions also prohibit any person from becoming a &#147;major shareholder&#148; of MFC. In addition, MFC is not permitted to record in its securities register any transfer or issue of shares if the transfer or issue would cause the person to
breach the ownership restrictions. For these purposes, a person has a significant interest in a class of shares of MFC where the aggregate of any shares of that class beneficially owned by that person, any entity controlled by that person and by any
person associated or acting jointly or in concert with that person exceeds 10% of all the outstanding shares of that class of shares of MFC. A person is a major shareholder if the aggregate of any shares in a class of voting shares held by that
person and by any entity controlled by that person exceeds 20% of the outstanding shares of that class, or, for a class of non-voting shares, a holding exceeds 30% of that class. If a person contravenes any of these restrictions, the Minister of
Finance may, by order, direct such person to dispose of all or any portion of those shares. In addition, the ICA prohibits life insurance companies, including MFC, from recording in its securities register a transfer or issue of any share to Her
Majesty in right of Canada or of a province, an agent or agency of Her Majesty, a foreign government or an agent or agency of a foreign government and provides further that no person may exercise the voting rights attached to those shares of an
insurance company. The ICA exempts from such constraints certain foreign financial institutions which are controlled by foreign governments and eligible agents provided certain conditions are satisfied. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under applicable insurance laws and regulations in Michigan, New York, Massachusetts, and Vermont, no person may acquire control of any of our
insurance company subsidiaries domiciled in any such state without obtaining prior approval of such state&#146;s insurance regulatory authority. Under applicable laws and regulations, any person acquiring, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the
voting securities of any other person is presumed to have acquired &#147;control&#148; of such person. Thus, any person seeking to acquire 10% or more of the voting securities of MFC must obtain the prior approval of the insurance regulatory
authorities in certain states including Michigan, Massachusetts, Vermont and New York, or must demonstrate to the relevant insurance commissioner&#146;s satisfaction that the acquisition of such securities will not give them control of MFC. Under
U.S. law, the failure to obtain such prior approval would entitle MFC or the insurance regulatory authorities to seek injunctive relief, including enjoining any proposed acquisition, the voting of such securities at any meeting of the holders of
Common Shares, or seizing shares owned by such person, and such shares may not be entitled to be voted at any meeting of the holders of Common Shares. </P>

we refer to as the Trust II, MFC and MLI have covenanted for the benefit of holders of the outstanding Manulife Financial Capital Trust II Notes &#150; Series I, which we refer to as the Trust II Notes, that, if an &#147;Other Deferral Event&#148;
as defined in the applicable agreement occurs, MLI will not declare or pay cash dividends on any MLI Public Preferred Shares (as defined below), if any are outstanding, and if no MLI Public Preferred Shares are outstanding, MFC will not declare or
pay cash dividends on its Preferred Shares and Common Shares, in each case, until the sixth month following the relevant Other Deferral Event date. An Other Deferral Event will occur if interest is not paid in full in cash on the Trust II Notes on
any interest payment date or if MLI elects that holders of Trust II Notes invest interest payable on the Trust II Notes on any interest payment date in a new series of MLI Class 1 Shares. &#147;MLI Public Preferred Shares&#148; means, at any time,
preferred shares of MLI which at that time: (a)&nbsp;have been issued to the public (excluding any preferred shares of MLI held beneficially by affiliates of MLI); (b)&nbsp;are listed on a recognized stock exchange; and (c)&nbsp;have an aggregate
liquidation entitlement of at least $200 million, provided however, if at any time, there is more than one class of MLI Public Preferred Shares outstanding, then the most senior class or classes of outstanding MLI Public Preferred Shares shall, for
all purposes, be the MLI Public Preferred Shares. </P>
