1. Organization
John Hancock GA Senior Loan Trust (the fund) is a Delaware statutory trust that is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a closed-end management investment company. The investment objective of the fund is to generate current income.
The fund is only offered to "accredited investors" within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 1933 Act), non-U.S. investors within the meaning of Regulation S under the 1933 Act, and other investors eligible to invest in a private placement.
Basis of consolidation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of John Hancock GA Senior Loan Trust Subsidiary Trust LLC (the subsidiary), which was incorporated on October 10, 2024, and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the fund. The fund and its subsidiary are advised by Manulife Investment Management Private Markets (US) LLC (the Advisor). As of June 30, 2026, the net assets of the subsidiary were $5,807,121 representing 0.46% of the fund's consolidated net assets. Intercompany accounts and transactions, if any, have been eliminated. The consolidated fund's investments include positions of the fund and the subsidiary.
2. Significant accounting policies
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be significant. The fund qualifies as an investment company under Topic 946 of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) of US GAAP.
Events or transactions occurring after the end of the fiscal period through the date that the consolidated financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the fund:
Security valuation. Investments are valued at the end of each month at a minimum. The fund invests primarily in senior loans. The Advisor, assisted by its Pricing Committee (composed of officers of the Advisor and its affiliates), determines the fair value of the fund's securities that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available pursuant to procedures established by the Advisor, as the fund's valuation designee, and adopted by the Board of Trustees. In connection with that determination, portfolio valuations are prepared in accordance with the Advisor's valuation policy using valuation obtained from independent valuation firms and/or proprietary models.
Valuation techniques include discounted cash flow models, comparison with similar instruments for which observable market prices exist and other valuation models. Assumptions and inputs used in valuation techniques include risk-free and benchmark interest rates, credit spreads and other inputs used in estimating discount rates. For senior loans, the fund uses valuations from independent valuation firms, which are based on models developed from recognized US GAAP valuation approaches under ASC 820. Some or all of the significant inputs into these models may be unobservable and are derived either from observable market prices or rates or are estimated based on unobservable assumptions. Valuation models that employ significant unobservable inputs require a higher degree of management judgment and estimation in the determination of fair value. Judgment and estimation are usually required for the selection of the appropriate valuation model to be used, determination of expected future cash flows on the financial instrument being valued, determination of the probability of counterparty default and prepayments and selection of appropriate discount rates.
24
John Hancock GA Senior Loan Trust
Notes to financial statements 6-30-26 (unaudited)
The Pricing Committee engages in oversight activities with respect to pricing vendors, which includes, among other things, back-testing of pricing vendor prices against actual trades, conducting periodic due diligence meetings and reviews, and periodically reviewing the inputs, assumptions and methodologies used by these vendors. Nevertheless, market quotations, official closing prices, or information furnished by a pricing vendor could be inaccurate, which could lead to a security being valued incorrectly.
Equity securities are generally valued at the last sale price or, for certain markets, the official closing price as of the close of the relevant exchange. Securities not traded on a particular day are valued using last available bid prices. A security that is listed or traded on more than one exchange is typically valued at the price on the exchange where the security was acquired or most likely will be sold. In certain instances, the Pricing Committee may determine to value equity securities using prices obtained from another exchange or market if trading on the exchange or market on which prices are typically obtained did not open for trading as scheduled, or if trading closed earlier than scheduled, and trading occurred as normal on another exchange or market.
The fund uses a three tier hierarchy to prioritize the pricing assumptions, referred to as inputs, used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. Level 1 includes securities valued using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes securities valued using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk. Prices for securities valued using these inputs are received from independent pricing vendors and brokers and are based on an evaluation of the inputs described. Level 3 includes securities valued using significant unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable, including the Advisor's assumptions in determining the fair value of investments. Factors used in determining value may include market or issuer specific events or trends, changes in interest rates and credit quality. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Changes in valuation techniques and related inputs may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy.
Senior loan investments are measured at fair value based on the present value of the expected cash flows of the loans. There are no quoted prices in active markets. Assumptions and inputs used in the valuation of senior loan investments include prepayment estimates, determination of the discount rate based on the risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk (including estimation of probability of default), liquidity and any other adjustments that the independent valuation firm believes that a third-party market participant would take into account in pricing a transaction. Senior loan investment valuations rely primarily on the use of significant unobservable inputs, including credit assumptions, which require significant judgment and, accordingly, are classified as Level 3.
Other debt obligations are typically valued based on the evaluated prices provided by an independent pricing vendor. Independent pricing vendors utilize matrix pricing which takes into account factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data, as well as broker supplied prices. Other debt obligations are generally classified as Level 2.
Equity investments that do not have a counterparty trading in public market will be fair valued as determined in good faith by the Pricing Committee following procedures established by the Advisor and adopted by the Board of Trustees. Private equities rely primarily on the use of significant unobservable inputs, which require significant judgment and, accordingly, are classified as Level 3.
Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at their respective net asset values each business day and are generally classified as Level 1.

*A weighted average is an average in which each input in the grouping is assigned a weighting before summing to a single average value. The weighting of the input is determined based on a security's fair value as a percentage of the total fair value.
A change to unobservable inputs of the fund's Level 3 securities as of June 30, 2026 could have resulted in changes to the fair value measurement, as follows:

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of Level 3 investments, the fair value of the investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed and may differ materially from the values that may ultimately be received or settled. Further, such investments will generally be subject to legal and other restrictions, or otherwise will be less liquid than publicly traded instruments. If the fund is required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, the fund might realize significantly less than the value at which such investment will have been previously been recorded. The fund's investments will be subject to market risk. Market risk is the potential for changes in the value due to market changes. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the investments are traded.
Senior loans. The fund invests in senior loans. Senior loans include first and second lien term loans, delayed draw term loans, and revolving credit facilities. The fund will only invest in loans and commitments that are determined to be below investment-grade. The fund's investment policies are based on credit quality at the time of purchase. Credit quality is determined by the Advisor. The fund may invest in loans with a maturity of up to nine years from the closing date of the loan. The Advisor typically expects to employ a buy-and-hold strategy. The fund may invest in loans either by transacting directly at the initial funding date or acquiring loans in secondary market transactions. The fund may invest in loans secured by substantially all of the assets of the borrower and the other loan parties, subject to customary exceptions, including a pledge of the equity of the borrower and its subsidiaries.
The fund may be subject to greater levels of credit risk, call (or prepayment) risk, settlement risk and liquidity risk than funds that do not invest in senior loans. Senior loans are considered predominantly speculative with respect to an issuer's continuing ability to make principal and interest payments, and may be more volatile than other types of securities. An economic downturn or individual corporate developments could adversely affect the market for these instruments and reduce the fund's ability to sell these instruments at an advantageous time or price. An economic downturn would generally lead to a higher non-payment rate and a senior loan may lose significant value before a default occurs. The fund may also be subject to greater levels of liquidity risk than funds that do not invest in senior loans. In addition, the senior loans in which the fund invests may not be listed on any exchange and a secondary market for such loans may be comparatively less liquid relative to markets for other more liquid fixed income securities. Consequently, transactions in senior loans may involve greater costs than transactions in more actively traded securities. Restrictions on transfers in loan agreements, a lack of publicly-available information, irregular or no trading activity and wide bid/ask spreads among other factors, may, in certain circumstances, make senior loans difficult to value accurately or sell at an advantageous time or price than other types of securities or instruments. These factors may result in the fund being unable to realize full value for the senior loans and/or may result in the fund not receiving the proceeds from a sale of a senior loan for an extended period after such sale, each of which could result in losses to the fund. Senior loans may have extended trade settlement periods which may result in cash not being immediately available to the fund. If an issuer of a senior loan prepays or redeems the loan prior to maturity, the fund may have to reinvest the proceeds in other senior loans or similar instruments that may pay lower interest rates. Senior loans in which the fund invests may or may not be collateralized, although the loans may not be fully collateralized and the collateral may be unavailable or insufficient to meet the obligations of the borrower. The fund may have limited rights to exercise remedies against such collateral or a borrower, and loan agreements may impose certain procedures that delay receipt of the proceeds of collateral or require the fund to act collectively with other creditors to exercise its
27

Notes to financial statements 6-30-26 (unaudited)
rights with respect to a senior loan. Because of the risks involved in investing in senior loans, an investment in the fund should be considered speculative. Junior loans, which are secured and unsecured subordinated loans, second lien loans and subordinate bridge loans, involve a higher degree of overall risk than senior loans of the same borrower due to the junior loan's lower place in the borrower's capital structure and, in some cases, their unsecured status.
The fund may also enter into, or acquire participations in, delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities, in which a bank or other lender agrees to make loans up to a maximum amount upon demand by the borrower during a specified term. These commitments may have the effect of requiring the fund to increase its investment in a company at a time when it might not be desirable to do so (including at a time when the company's financial condition makes it unlikely that such amounts will be repaid). Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities are subject to credit, interest rate and liquidity risk and the risks of being a lender. Unfunded loan commitments are marked to market in accordance with the fund's valuation policies. Any related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on unfunded commitments is included in unaffiliated investments, at value in the Consolidated statement of assets and liabilities and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Consolidated statement of operations. As of June 30, 2026, the fund had the following unfunded commitments outstanding.

Security transactions and related investment income. Investment security transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one basis for NAV calculations. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on trade date. Interest income is accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization/accretion of premiums/discounts on debt securities. Debt obligations may be placed in a non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by stopping current accruals and writing off interest receivable when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful. Dividend income is recorded on ex-date, except for dividends of certain foreign securities where the dividend may not be known until after the ex-date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds from litigation.
Overdrafts. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, the fund's custodian may, in its discretion, advance funds to the fund to make properly authorized payments. When such payments result in an overdraft, the fund is obligated to repay the custodian for any overdraft, including any costs or expenses associated with the overdraft. The custodian may have a lien, security interest or security entitlement in any fund property that is not otherwise segregated or pledged, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to the extent of any overdraft. Overdrafts at period end are presented under the caption Due to custodian in the Consolidated statement of assets and liabilities.

Notes to financial statements 6-30-26 (unaudited)
Line of credit. The fund has entered into a revolving promissory note agreement with John Hancock Funding Company, LLC (JH Funding) and a Line of Credit agreement with John Hancock Life Insurance Company (JHUSA). The aggregate outstanding borrowings under the agreements with both JHUSA and JH Funding for the fund will not exceed $500 million. Prior to January 30, 2026, the Line of Credit agreement was $350 million. Any borrowings will be first drawn from JHUSA up to $50 million, subject to certain conditions as specified in the agreement; otherwise, the borrowings will be drawn from JH Funding. There were no upfront fees or commitment fees paid by the fund in connection with these line of credit agreements. The borrowings under these agreements are designed to be short-term and will not be used for investment leverage.
Expenses. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Consolidated statement of cash flows. A Consolidated statement of cash flows is presented when a certain percentage of the fund's investments is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Information on financial transactions that have been settled through the receipt and disbursement of cash is presented in the Consolidated statement of cash flows. The cash amount shown in the Consolidated statement of cash flows is the amount included in the fund's Consolidated statement of assets and liabilities and represents the cash on hand at the fund's custodian and does not include any short-term investments.
Federal income taxes. The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and will not be subject to federal income tax on taxable income that is distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
For federal income tax purposes, as of December 31, 2025, the fund has a long-term capital loss carryforward of $1,920,493 available to offset future net realized capital gains. This carryforward does not expire.
As of December 31, 2025, the fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require consolidated financial statement recognition, derecognition or disclosure. The fund's federal tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years.
Distribution of income and gains. Distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-date. The fund generally declares and pays dividends quarterly. Capital gain distributions, if any, are typically distributed annually.
Such distributions, on a tax basis, if any, are determined in conformity with income tax regulations, which may differ from US GAAP. Distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits, if any, are reported in the fund's consolidated financial statements as a return of capital. The final determination of tax characteristics of the fund's distribution will occur at the end of the year and will subsequently be reported to shareholders.
Capital accounts within the consolidated financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences at fiscal year end. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences, if any, will reverse in a subsequent period. Book-tax differences are primarily attributable to distributions payable.
3. Guarantees and indemnifications
Under the fund's organizational documents, its Officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the fund enters into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the fund that have not yet occurred. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

4. Fees and transactions with affiliates
The Advisor serves as investment advisor for the fund. The fund does not have a principal underwriter. The fund has entered into a Placement Agency Agreement with John Hancock Investment Management Distributors LLC (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Advisor, to offer to sell shares of the fund. The Advisor is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Manulife Financial Corporation (MFC) and the Distributor is an indirect, principally owned subsidiary of John Hancock Life Insurance Company (U.S.A.), which in turn is a subsidiary of MFC.
Management fee. The fund has an investment management agreement with the Advisor under which the fund pays an annual fee rate of 0.55% of average net assets, accrued daily and paid quarterly in arrears. Effective March 1, 2026, the Advisor has a subadvisory agreement with Comvest Credit Advisors LLC, an indirectly owned subsidiary of MFC and an affiliate of the Advisor. The fund is not responsible for payment of the subadvisory fees.
Performance fee. The fund has an agreement with the Advisor under which the fund pays a performance fee at an annual rate of 10% of the fund's net profits, if any, over the high water mark (as defined below) provided that the performance fee shall be due only if (and, to the extent necessary, shall be reduced by an amount so that), after deducting such performance fee the fund's net profits as of the end of the applicable quarter will at least equal a defined preferred return (as defined below). For the purposes of calculating the performance fee, net profits will be determined by taking into account net realized gain or loss (including realized gain that has been distributed to shareholders during a fiscal quarter and net of fund expenses, including the management fee) and the net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation of securities positions, as well as dividends, interest and other income. No performance fee will be payable for any fiscal quarter unless losses and depreciation from prior fiscal quarters (the "cumulative loss") have been recovered by the fund, which is referred to as a "high water mark" calculation. The cumulative loss to be recovered before payment of performance fees will be reduced in the event of withdrawals by shareholders. The Advisor is under no obligation to repay any performance fees previously paid by the fund. Thus, the payment of performance fee for a fiscal quarter will not be reversed by the subsequent decline of the fund's net asset value in any subsequent fiscal quarter.
The preferred return as of the end of the applicable fiscal quarter is an amount equal to (a) 1.25% (the "preferred return rate") multiplied by (b) the fund's net asset value as of the beginning of the fiscal quarter, adjusted to reflect additions to the fund's net asset value resulting from new share purchases during the fiscal quarter and reductions to the fund resulting from withdrawals by, or distributions to, shareholders during the fiscal quarter (the "preferred return base"). The performance fee is accrued monthly and paid quarterly.
Accounting and legal services. Pursuant to a service agreement, the fund reimburses the Advisor for all expenses associated with providing the administrative, financial, legal, compliance, accounting and recordkeeping services to the fund, including the preparation of all tax returns, periodic reports to shareholders and regulatory reports, among other services. These accounting and legal services fees incurred, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, amounted to an annual rate of 0.03% of the fund's average net assets.
Trustee expenses. The fund compensates each Trustee who is not an employee of the Advisor or its affiliates.
Co-investment. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the fund is permitted to negotiate certain investments with entities with which it would be restricted from doing so under the 1940 Act, such as the Advisor and its affiliates. The fund is permitted to co-invest with affiliates if certain conditions are met. For example, the Advisor makes an independent determination of the appropriateness of the investment for the fund. Also, a "required majority" (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the fund's independent trustees make
32
John Hancock GA Senior Loan Trust
Notes to financial statements 6-30-26 (unaudited)
certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction as set forth in the order, including that (1) the terms of the transactions, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to the fund and shareholders and do not involve overreaching by the fund or shareholders on the part of any person concerned and (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of shareholders and is consistent with the fund's investment objective and strategies. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, commitments entered into by the fund pursuant to the exemptive order amounted to $549,766,877, including unfunded commitments of $229,726,237.
5. Fund share transactions
Affiliates of the fund owned 100% of shares of the fund on June 30, 2026.
6. Purchase and sale of securities
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term investments, amounted to $382,396,891 and $98,048,627, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2026.
7. Segment reporting
The management committee of the Advisor acts as the fund's chief operating decision maker (the CODM), assessing performance and making decisions about resource allocation. The fund represents a single operating segment, as the CODM monitors and assesses the operating results of the fund as a whole, and the fund's long-term strategic asset allocation is managed in accordance with the terms of its prospectus, based on a defined investment strategy which is executed by the portfolio management team of the fund's subadvisor. Segment assets are reflected in the Consolidated statement of assets and liabilities as "Total assets", which consists primarily of total investments at value. The financial information, including the measurement of profit and loss and significant expenses, provided to and reviewed by the CODM is consistent with that presented within the Consolidated statement of operations, which includes "Increase (decrease) in net assets from operations", Consolidated statements of changes in net assets, which includes "Increase (decrease) in net assets from fund share transactions", and Consolidated financial highlights, which includes total return and income and expense ratios.

Investment Objective
The fund's investment objective is to generate current income.
Principal Investment Strategies
Under normal market conditions, the fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in senior loans. Senior loans include first and second lien term loans, delayed draw term loans, and revolving credit facilities. The fund may also make investments and acquire securities in connection with senior loans, including equity co-investments. Equity co-investments in which the fund may invest are typically small investments in a direct or indirect parent company of the borrower. Senior loans do not include commercial mortgage loans (including subordinated real estate mezzanine financing). The fund will only invest in loans and commitments that are determined to be below investment-grade, also called junk bonds (i.e., fixed-income securities rated Ba or lower by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or BB or lower by S&P Global Ratings or Fitch Ratings, as applicable, at the time of investment, or determined by a manager to be of comparable quality to securities so rated). The fund's investment policies are based on credit quality at the time of purchase. Credit quality is determined by the Advisor. The fund may invest in loans with a maturity of up to nine years from the closing date of the loan. The Advisor typically expects to employ a buy-and-hold strategy. The fund may invest in loans either by transacting directly at the initial funding date or acquiring loans in secondary market transactions.
The fund may invest in loans secured by substantially all of the assets of the borrower and the other loan parties (subject to customary exceptions), including a pledge of the equity of the borrower and its subsidiaries. While real property is not a primary source of collateral, occasionally mortgages are part of the collateral package if the borrower owns particularly valuable real property. The fund may also invest in subordinated debt obligations to the extent permitted by the fund's investment restrictions.
The Advisor undertakes a comprehensive due diligence process, which includes a credit review and internal loan rating process as well as review of loan terms and collateral. The Advisor does not intend to cause the fund to borrow money or leverage its investments for the purpose of funding investments, other than in instances of short-term liquidity needs, and paying fund expenses.
The fund's investments may also include original-issue-discount instruments and contractual "payment-in-kind," or PIK, interest arrangements.
Principal Risks
An investment in the fund is subject to investment and market risks, including the possible loss of the entire principal invested.
The fund's main risks are listed below in alphabetical order, not in order of importance.
Changing distribution level & return of capital risk. There is no guarantee prior distribution levels will be maintained, and distributions may include a substantial tax return of capital. A return of capital is the return of all or a portion of a shareholder's investment in the fund.
Credit and counterparty risk. The issuer or guarantor of a fixed-income security may not make timely payments or otherwise honor its obligations. A downgrade or default affecting any of the fund's securities could affect the fund's performance.
Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities risk. Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities may have the effect of requiring the fund to increase its investment in a company at a time when it might not be desirable to do so (including at a time when the company's financial condition makes it unlikely that such amounts will be repaid). Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities are subject to credit, interest rate and liquidity risk and the risks of being a lender.
34
John Hancock GA Senior Loan Trust
Investment objective, principal investment strategies, and principal risks (unaudited)
Economic and market events risk. Events in the U.S. and global financial markets, including actions taken by the U.S. Federal Reserve or foreign central banks to stimulate or stabilize economic growth, may at times result in unusually high market volatility, which could negatively impact performance. Reduced liquidity in credit and fixed-income markets could adversely affect issuers worldwide. Financial Institutions could suffer losses as interest rates rise or economic conditions deteriorate.
Fixed-income securities risk. A rise in interest rates typically causes bond prices to fall. The longer the average maturity or duration of the bonds held by a fund, the more sensitive it will likely be to interest-rate fluctuations. An issuer may not make all interest payment or repay all or any of the principal borrowed.
Changes in a security's credit quality may adversely affect fund performance. Additionally, the value of inflation-indexed securities is subject to the effects of changes in market interest rates caused by factors other than inflation (real interest rates). Generally, when real interest rates rise, the value of inflation-indexed securities will fall and the fund's value may decline as a result of this exposure to these securities.
Illiquid and restricted securities risk. Illiquid and restricted securities may be difficult to value and may involve greater risks than liquid securities. Illiquidity may have an adverse impact on a particular security's market price and the fund's ability to sell the security.
Liquidity risk. The extent (if at all) to which a security may be sold without negatively impacting its market value may be impaired by reduced market activity or participation, legal restrictions, or other economic and market impediments. Liquidity risk may be magnified in rising interest rate environments due to higher than normal repurchase requests. Widespread selling of fixed-income securities during periods of reduced demand may adversely impact the price or salability of such securities.
Loan participations risk. Participations and assignments involve special types of risks, including credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and the risks of being a lender. Investments in loan participations and assignments present the possibility that a fund could be held liable as a co-lender under emerging legal theories of lender liability. If a fund purchases a participation, it may only be able to enforce its rights through the lender and may assume the credit risk of the lender in addition to the borrower.
Lower-rated and high-yield fixed-income securities risk. Lower-rated and high-yield fixed-income securities (junk bonds) are subject to greater credit quality risk, risk of default, and price volatility than higher-rated fixed-income securities, may be considered speculative, and can be difficult to resell.
Operational and cybersecurity risk. Cybersecurity breaches may allow an unauthorized party to gain access to fund assets, customer data, or proprietary information, or cause a fund or its service providers to suffer data corruption or lose operational functionality. Similar incidents affecting issuers of a fund's securities may negatively impact performance. Operational risk may arise from human error, error by third parties, communication errors, or technology failures, among other causes.
Senior loans risk. Senior loans may be comparatively less liquid relative to markets for other more liquid fixed income securities. Restrictions on transfers in loan agreements, a lack of publicly-available information, irregular trading activity and wide bid/ask spreads among other factors, may, in certain circumstances, make senior loans difficult to value accurately or sell at an advantageous time or price than other types of securities or instruments. Senior loans may have extended trade settlement periods which may result in cash not being immediately available. If an issuer of a senior loan prepays or redeems the loan prior to maturity, the fund may have to reinvest the proceeds in other senior loans or similar instruments that may pay lower interest rates. Senior loans in which the fund invests may or may not be collateralized, although the loans may not be fully collateralized and the collateral may be unavailable or insufficient to meet the obligations of the borrower. The fund may have limited rights to exercise remedies against such collateral or a borrower, and loan agreements may impose certain procedures that delay receipt of the proceeds of collateral or require the fund to act collectively with other creditors to exercise its rights with respect to a senior loan.

Investment objective, principal investment strategies, and principal risks (unaudited)
Subordinated liens on collateral risk. Certain debt investments that the fund may make will be secured on a second priority basis by the same collateral securing senior secured debt of such companies. The first priority liens on the collateral will secure the fund's obligations under any outstanding senior debt and may secure certain other future debt that may be permitted to be incurred by the fund under the agreements governing the debt. The holders of obligations secured by the first priority liens on the collateral will generally control the liquidation of and be entitled to receive proceeds from any realization of the collateral to repay their obligations in full before the fund is so entitled. There can be no assurance that the proceeds, if any, from the sale or sales of all of the collateral would be sufficient to satisfy the debt obligations secured by the second priority liens after payment in full of all obligations secured by the first priority liens on the collateral.

Board considerations (unaudited)
EVALUATION OF ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY AGREEMENTS BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
Approval of Subadvisory Agreements
At a meeting held on December 17, 2025, the Board of Trustees (the Board) of the John Hancock Senior Loan Trust (the fund), including all of the Trustees who are not parties to any Agreement or considered to be interested persons of the Trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act) (the Independent Trustees), considered and approved a subadvisory agreement between Manulife Investment Management Private Markets (US) LLC (the Advisor) and Comvest Credit Advisors, LLC (the Subadvisor) with respect to the fund (the Subadvisory Agreement). The Independent Trustees also met separately with counsel to the Independent Trustees to evaluate and discuss the information presented.
On December 17, 2025, the Board subsequently considered and approved an amendment to the Subadvisory Agreement ("Amended Subadvisory Agreement") between the fund and the Subadvisor which added an additional breakpoint to the subadvisory fee approved under the Subadvisory Agreement (the Amended Subadvisory Agreement, together with the Subadvisory Agreement, the Subadvisory Agreements).
In considering the approval of the Subadvisory Agreements, with respect to the fund, the Board received in advance of the meetings a variety of materials relating to the fund and the Subadvisor, including (but not limited to) comparative performance for a peer group of similar funds, fee and expense information for a peer group of similar funds, performance information for applicable benchmark indices relative to similar funds; and, with respect to the Subadvisor, comparative performance information and fee information for similarly managed accounts, as applicable. The information received and considered by the Board in connection with the October 22, 2025 and December 17, 2025 meetings and throughout the year was both written and oral.
Throughout the process, the Board asked questions of and requested additional information from management. The Board is assisted by counsel for the fund and the Independent Trustees were also separately assisted by independent legal counsel throughout the process. The Independent Trustees also received a memorandum from their independent legal counsel discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed Subadvisory Agreements and discussed the proposed Subadvisory Agreements in private sessions with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of management were present.
In making its determination with respect to approval of the Subadvisory Agreements, the Board reviewed:
(a)information relating to the Subadvisor's business;
(b)the performance of comparable funds, as applicable, managed by the key members of the proposed portfolio management team and the experience of the Subadvisor's affiliates in managing similar strategies;
(c)the proposed subadvisory fee for the fund, including breakpoints under the Subadvisory Agreement and Amended Subadvisory Agreement; and
(d)information relating to the nature and scope of any material relationships and their significance to the Trust's Advisor and Subadvisor, including the affiliation between the Advisor and Subadvisor.
Nature, extent, and quality of services. With respect to the services to be provided by the Subadvisor, the Board noted that the key members of the portfolio management team managing the fund currently manage a similar strategy overseen by the Board. The Board received and reviewed information provided by the Subadvisor, including the Subadvisor's Form ADV. The Board considered the Subadvisor's current level of staffing and its overall resources, as well as considered information relating to the Subadvisor's compensation program. The Board reviewed the Subadvisor's history and investment experience, as well as
37
John Hancock GA Senior Loan Trust
Board considerations (unaudited)
information regarding the qualifications, background, and responsibilities of the Subadvisor's investment and compliance personnel who will provide services to the fund. The Board considered, among other things, the Subadvisor's compliance program and any disciplinary history. The Board reviewed the Subadvisor's regulatory history, including whether it was involved in any regulatory actions or investigations as well as material litigation, and any settlements and amelioratory actions undertaken, as appropriate. The Board noted that the Advisor conducts regular periodic reviews of the Subadvisor and its operations in regard to the funds, including regarding investment processes and organizational and staffing matters. The Board also noted that the Trust's CCO and his staff conduct regular, periodic compliance reviews with the Subadvisor and present reports to the Independent Trustees regarding the same, which includes evaluating the regulatory compliance systems of the Subadvisor and procedures reasonably designed to assure compliance with the federal securities laws. The Board also took into account the financial condition of the Subadvisor.
The Board considered the Subadvisor's investment process and philosophy. The Board took into account that the Subadvisor's responsibilities will include the development and maintenance of an investment program for the fund that is consistent with the fund's investment objective, the selection of investment securities and the placement of orders for the purchase and sale of such securities, as well as the implementation of compliance controls related to performance of these services. The Board also considered information with respect to the Subadvisor's brokerage policies and practices, including with respect to best execution and soft dollars.
Subadvisor compensation. In considering the cost of services to be provided by the Subadvisor and the profitability to the Subadvisor of its relationship with the fund, the Board noted that the fees under the Subadvisory Agreements will be paid by the Advisor and not the fund.
The Board also relied on the ability of the Advisor to negotiate the Subadvisory Agreements with the Subadvisor.
The Board also received information regarding the nature and scope (including their significance to the Advisor and its affiliates and to the Subadvisor) of any material relationships with respect to the Subadvisor, which include arrangements in which the Subadvisor or its affiliates provide advisory, distribution, or other management services in connection with financial products sponsored by the Advisor or its affiliates. The Board also considered any other potential conflicts of interest the Advisor might have in connection with the Subadvisory Agreements. In particular, the Board noted that the Advisor is newly affiliated with the Subadvisor.
In addition, the Board considered other potential indirect benefits that the Subadvisor and its affiliates may receive from the Subadvisor's relationship with the fund, such as the opportunity to provide advisory services to additional funds in the John Hancock Fund Complex and reputational benefits.
Subadvisory fees.The Board considered that the fund will pay an advisory fee to the Advisor and that, in turn, the Advisor will pay a subadvisory fee to the Subadvisor.
Subadvisor performance. The Board noted that it reviews at its regularly scheduled meetings information about the performance of other funds managed by the Advisor. The Board noted the Advisor's expertise and resources in monitoring the performance, investment style and risk-adjusted performance of the Subadvisor. The Board was mindful of the Advisor's ability to monitor subadvisor performance.
The Board's decision to approve the Subadvisory Agreements was based on a number of determinations, including the following:
(1)the Subadvisor has extensive experience and demonstrated skills as a manager, and may reasonably be expected to provide a high quality of investment management services to the fund;
38
John Hancock GA Senior Loan Trust
Board considerations (unaudited)
(2)the Subadvisor provided performance information for a composite of comparable accounts over various time periods;
(3)the proposed subadvisory fees are reasonable in relation to the level and quality of services to be provided under the Subadvisory Agreements; and
(4)that the subadvisory fees will be paid by the Advisor not the fund.
***
Based on the Board's evaluation of all factors that the Board deemed to be material, including but not limited to those factors described above, and assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that approval of the Subadvisory Agreements would be in the best interest of the fund and its shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, and the Independent Trustees voting separately, approved the Subadvisory Agreements.
