Dear Fellow Shareholder:

attend the annual shareholder meeting on Wednesday, March 2, 2005 at 9:00
A.M., Eastern Time, to be held at John Hancock Funds, 101 Huntington Avenue,
Boston, MA 02199.

The proposals set forth in the enclosed proxy statement are routine items. A

changes to a fund's investment objectives, policies or restrictions, or to the
investment management contracts.

ELECT YOUR FUND'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES

For each fund, proposal number one asks common shareholders to elect four
Trustees and preferred shareholders to elect one Trustee. Trustees will serve
until their respective successors are elected and qualified. Your proxy
statement includes a brief description of each nominee's background.

RATIFY THE TRUSTEES' SELECTION OF PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

For each fund, proposal number two asks you to ratify or reject the Trustees'
selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as each fund's independent registered
public accounting firm for the fund's current fiscal year.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT!

Please complete the enclosed proxy ballot form, sign it and mail it to us
immediately. For your convenience, a postage-paid return envelope has been
provided. Your prompt response will help avoid the cost of additional mailings

RECORD OWNERSHIP
    The Trustees of each fund have fixed the close of business on January 12,
2005 as the record date to determine which shareholders are entitled to vote
at the meeting. Common and Preferred shareholders of each fund are entitled to
one vote per share on all business of the meetings or any postponement of the
meeting relating to their fund and respective share class. On the record date,
the following number of shares of beneficial interest of each fund were
outstanding:

        FUND                                 COMMON SHARES     PREFERRED SHARES
        ----                                 -------------     ----------------
Premium Dividend I                             15,292,571             685
Premium Dividend II                            15,046,539           1,000
Select Dividend                                10,010,393             700
Global Dividend                                 8,344,700             600
Preferred Dividend                              7,257,200             525

    The funds' management does not know of anyone who beneficially owned more
than 5% of either class of any fund's shares outstanding as of the record
date, except for The Commerce Group, Inc., 211 Main Street, Webster, MA 01570,
which holds the following Common Shares: 10.7% of Premium Dividend I, 33.5% of
Premium Dividend II, 18.1% of Global Dividend and 18.1% of Preferred Dividend.
(Beneficial ownership means voting power and/or investment power, which
includes the power to dispose of shares.)

    Although the annual meetings of the funds are being held jointly and
proxies are being solicited through the use of this joint proxy statement,
shareholders of each fund will vote separately as to proposals affecting their
fund.


                                  PROPOSAL 1

                             ELECTION OF TRUSTEES
              (COMMON SHARES AND PREFERRED SHARES OF EACH FUND)

GENERAL
    Each fund's Board of Trustees consists of ten members. Holders of the
Common Shares are entitled to elect eight Trustees and holders of the
Preferred Shares are entitled to elect two Trustees. Messrs. Carlin, Chapman,
Cunningham, Ladner, Moore, Pruchansky, Shepherdson and Smith have been
designated as subject to election by holders of the Common Shares of each
fund. Mr. Dion and Ms. McGill Peterson have been designated as subject to
election by holders of the Preferred Shares of each fund.

    Each Board of Trustees is divided into three staggered term classes; two
classes contain three Trustees each and one class contains four Trustees. The
term of one class expires each year, and no term continues for more than three
years after the applicable election. Each class of Trustees will stand for
election at the conclusion of their respective three-year terms. Classifying
the Trustees in this manner may prevent replacement of a majority of the
Trustees for up to a two-year period.

    As of the date of this proxy, each nominee for election currently serves
as Trustee of each fund except for Mr. Chapman who is an Independent Trustee
on other funds within the John Hancock complex. Using the enclosed proxy card,
you may authorize the proxies to vote your shares for the nominees
representing your shares or you may withhold from the proxies authority to
vote your shares for one or more of the nominees representing your shares. If
no contrary instructions are given, the proxies will vote FOR the nominees.
Each of the nominees has consented to his or her nomination and has agreed to
serve if elected. If, for any reason, any nominee should not be available for
election or able to serve as a Trustee, the proxies will exercise their voting
power in favor of such substitute nominee, if any, as the funds' Trustees may
designate. The funds have no reason to believe that it will be necessary to
designate a substitute nominee.

PROPOSAL 1
    For each fund, Messrs. Carlin, Chapman, Cunningham and Shepherdson are the
current nominees for election by the Common Shareholders and Ms. McGill
Peterson is the current nominees for election by the Preferred Shareholders.

VOTE REQUIRED FOR PROPOSAL 1
    The vote of a plurality of the votes cast by the Common Shares and the
Preferred Shares, voting as separate classes, of a fund is sufficient to elect
the Common shares' and Preferred shares' respective nominees of that fund.

INFORMATION CONCERNING TRUSTEES
    The following table sets forth certain information regarding the nominees
for election to the Boards. The table also shows his or her principal
occupation or employment and other directorships during the past five years
and the number of John Hancock funds overseen by the Trustee. The table also
lists the Trustees who are not currently standing for election: The terms of
Messrs. Dion, Ladner and Moore will expire at the 2006 annual meeting and the
terms of Messrs. Pruchansky and Smith will expire at the 2007 annual meeting.

(1) Business address for independent and non-independent Trustees and officers is 101 Huntington Avenue, Boston, Massachusetts
    02199.

    Each Trust's board of trustees currently has four standing Committees: the Audit Committee, the Administration Committee, the
Contracts/Operations Committee and the Investment Performance Committee. Each Committee is comprised of Independent Trustees who
are not "interested persons."

    The current membership of each Committee and the anticipated membership if the nominees are elected, are set forth below.


                        AUDIT                       ADMINISTRATION           CONTRACTS/OPERATIONS        INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE

----------
* Mr. Toolan reached the age of mandatory retirement and retired on December 31, 2004.


    All members of each fund's Audit Committee are Independent under the New
York Stock Exchange's Revised Listing Rules, and each member is financially
literate with at least one having accounting or financial management
expertise. The Board has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee,
which is attached as Attachment 1. The Audit Committee recommends to the full
Board the appointment of outside auditors for the fund, monitors and oversees
the audits of the fund, communicates with both independent auditors and
internal auditors on a regular basis and provides a forum for the auditors to
report and discuss any matters they deem appropriate at any time. Each Audit
Committee reports that it has (1) reviewed and discussed each fund's audited
financial statements with management; (2) discussed with the independent
auditors the matters relating to the quality of each fund's financial
reporting as required by SAS 61; (3) received written disclosures and an
independence letter from the independent auditors required by Independent
Standards Board Standard No. 1, and discussed with the auditors their
independence; and (4), based on these discussions, recommended to the Board
that each fund's financial statements be included in each fund's annual report
for the last fiscal year (see Attachment 2).

    All of the Independent Trustees are members of the Administration
Committee. The Administration Committee reviews the activities of the other
three standing committees and makes the final selection and nomination of
candidates to serve as Independent Trustees. All members of the Administration
Committee are independent under the New York Stock Exchange's Revised Listing
Rules and are Independent Trustees. The Board has adopted a written charter
for the Administration Committee, which is attached as Attachment 3 to this
proxy. The Administration Committee selects and nominates for elections
candidates for Independent Trustees. The Trustees who are not Independent
Trustees and the officers of the fund are nominated and selected by the Board.

    In reviewing a potential nominee and in evaluating the renomination of
current Independent Trustees, the Administration Committee expects to apply
the following criteria: (i) the nominee's reputation for integrity, honesty
and adherence to high ethical standards, (ii) the nominee's business acumen,
experience and ability to exercise sound judgments, (iii) a commitment to
understand the fund and the responsibilities of a trustee of an investment
company, (iv) a commitment to regularly attend and participate in meetings of
the Board and its committees, (v) the ability to understand potential
conflicts of interest involving management of the fund and to act in the
interests of all shareholders, and (vi) the absence of a real or apparent
conflict of interest that would impair the nominee's ability to represent the
interests of all the shareholders and to fulfill the responsibilities of an
Independent Trustee. The Administration Committee does not necessarily place
the same emphasis on each criteria and each nominee may not have each of these
qualities. The Administration Committee does not discriminate on the basis of
race, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, disability or any
other basis proscribed by law.

    As long as an existing Independent Trustee continues, in the opinion of
the Administration Committee, to satisfy these criteria, each fund anticipates
that the Committee would favor the renomination of an existing Trustee rather
than a new candidate. Consequently, while the Administration Committee will
consider nominees recommended by shareholders to serve as trustees, the
Administration Committee may only act upon such recommendations if there is a
vacancy on the Board or the Administration Committee determines that the
selection of a new or additional Independent Trustee is in the best interests
of the funds. In the event that a vacancy arises or a change in Board
membership is determined to be advisable, the Administration Committee will,
in addition to any shareholder recommendations, consider candidates identified
by other means, including candidates proposed by members of the Administration
Committee. While it has not done so in the past, the Administration Committee
may retain a consultant to assist the Committee in a search for a qualified
candidate.

    Any shareholder recommendation must be submitted in compliance with all of
the pertinent provisions of Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, to be considered by the Administration Committee. In
evaluating a nominee recommended by a shareholder, the Administration
Committee, in addition to the criteria discussed above, may consider the
objectives of the shareholder in submitting that nomination and whether such
objectives are consistent with the interests of all shareholders. If the Board
determines to include a shareholder's candidate among the slate of nominees,
the candidate's name will be placed on the fund's proxy card. If the
Administration Committee or the Board determines not to include such candidate
among the Board's designated nominees and the shareholder has satisfied the
requirements of Rule 14a-8, the shareholder's candidate will be treated as a
nominee of the shareholder who originally nominated the candidate. In that
case, the candidate will not be named on the proxy card distributed with the
fund's proxy statement. Each of the nominees for election as Trustee was
recommended by the Administration Committee, except for Mr. Shepherdson, who
was recommended by the Board.

    Shareholders may communicate with the members of the Board as a group or
individually. Any such communication should be sent to the Board or an
individual Trustee in care of the secretary of the fund at the address on the
notice of this meeting. The Secretary may determine not to forward any letter
to the members of the Board that does not relate to the business of the fund.
Mr. Shepherdson typically attends shareholder meetings and other members of
the Board may, but generally do not, attend.

    The Contracts/Operations Committee oversees the initiation, operation and
renewal of the various contracts between the fund and other entities. These
contracts include advisory, custodial and transfer agency agreements and
arrangements with other service providers.

    The Investment Performance Committee monitors and analyzes the performance
of the funds generally, consults with the Adviser as necessary if a fund is
considered to require special attention, and reviews fund peer groups and
other comparative standards as necessary.

    Each board of trustees and each committee held four meetings during each
fund's fiscal year. With respect to each fund, no Trustee attended fewer than
75% of the aggregate of (1) the total number of meetings of the Trustees of
the fund; and (2) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the
Trustees on which they served. The funds hold joint meetings of the Trustees
and all committees.

----------
(1) The amounts reflect the aggregate dollar range of equity securities beneficially owned by the Trustees in the Funds and in all
    John Hancock funds overseen by each Trustee. For each Trustee, the amounts reflected include share equivalents of certain John
    Hancock funds in which the Trustee is deemed to be invested pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan for Independent
    Trustees, as more fully described under "Remuneration of Trustees and Officers". The information as to beneficial ownership is
    based on statements furnished to the funds by the Trustees. Each of the Trustees has all voting and investment powers with
    respect to the shares indicated. None of the Trustees beneficially owned individually, and the Trustees and executive officers
    of the funds as a group did not beneficially own, in excess of one percent of the outstanding shares of any fund.

  + Mr. Chapman was not a Trustee of these funds in 2004.


COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
    Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires a fund's
executive officers, Trustees and persons who own more than ten percent of a
fund's shares ("10% Shareholders") to file reports of ownership and changes in
ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Executive
officers, Trustees, and 10% Shareholders are also required by SEC regulations
to furnish each fund with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based
solely on a review of the copies of these reports furnished to the funds and
representations that no other reports were required to be filed, each fund
believes that during the past fiscal year its executive officers, Trustees and
10% Shareholders complied with all applicable Section 16(a) filing
requirements.

REMUNERATION OF TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
    The following table provides information regarding the compensation paid
by the funds and the other investment companies in the John Hancock fund
complex to the Independent Trustees for their services for each fund's most
recently completed fiscal year. Any non-Independent Trustees and each of the
officers of the funds are interested persons of the Adviser, are compensated
by the Adviser and/or its affiliates and receive no compensation from the

----------
(1) The total compensation paid by the John Hancock fund complex to the Independent Trustees for the calendar year ended December
    31, 2004. All the Independent Trustees were Trustees of 28 funds in the John Hancock Fund Complex except for Ms. Peterson and
    Mr. Moore who were trustees of 31 funds, Mr. Chapman who was a trustee of 21 funds and Mr. Ladner who was a trustee of 49
    funds.
  * As of December 31, 2004, the value of the aggregate accrued deferred compensation amount from all funds in the John Hancock
    fund complex for Mr. Chapman was $69,035, for Mr. Cunningham was $627,144, for Mr. Dion was $242,968, for Mr. Moore was
    $273,394, for Mr. Pruchansky was $194,392, for Mr. Smith was $331,243 and for Mr. Toolan was $686,931 under the John Hancock
    Deferred Compensation Plan for Independent Trustees (the "Plan"). Under the Plan, an Independent Trustee may elect to have his
    deferred fees invested by a fund in shares of one or more funds in the John Hancock fund complex, and the amount paid to the
    Trustees under the Plan will be determined based upon the performance of such investments. Deferral of Trustees' fees does not
    obligate any fund to retain the services of any Trustee or obligate any fund to pay any particular level of compensation to
    the Trustee.
  # Mr. Chapman was not Trustee of these Funds in 2004.
  + Mr. Toolan reached the age of mandatory retirement and retired as of December 31, 2004.


MATERIAL RELATIONSHIPS OF THE INDEPENDENT TRUSTEES
    As of December 31, 2004, none of the Independent Trustees, nor any
immediate family member, owns shares of John Hancock Advisers, LLC (the
"investment adviser") or is a principal underwriter of the funds, nor does any
such person own shares of a company controlling, controlled by or under common
control with the investment adviser or a principal underwriter of the funds.

    There have been no transactions by the funds since the beginning of the
funds' last two fiscal years, nor are there any transactions currently
proposed, in which the amount exceeds $60,000 and in which any trustee of the
funds or any immediate family members has or will have a direct or indirect
material interest, nor have any of the foregoing persons been indebted to the
funds in an amount in excess of $60,000 at any time since that date.

    No Independent Trustee, nor any immediate family member has had, in the
past five years, any direct or indirect interest, the value of which exceeds
$60,000, in the investment adviser, a principal underwriter of the funds or in
a person (other than a registered investment company) directly or indirectly
controlling, controlled by or under common control with, the investment
adviser or principal underwriter of the funds. Moreover, no Independent
Trustee or immediate family member has, or has had in the last two fiscal
years of the funds, any direct or indirect relationships or material interest
in any transaction or in any currently proposed transaction, in which the
amount involved exceeds $60,000, in which the following persons were or are a
party: the funds, an officer of the funds, any investment company sharing the
same investment adviser or principal underwriter as the funds or any officer
of such a company, any investment adviser or principal underwriter of the
funds or any officer of such a party, any person directly or indirectly
controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment adviser
or principal underwriter of the funds, or any officer of such a person.

    Within the last two completed fiscal years of the funds, no officer of any
investment adviser or principal underwriter of the funds or of any person
directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with
the investment adviser or principal underwriter of the funds, has served as a
director on a board of a company, where any of the Independent Trustees or
nominees of the funds, or immediate family members of such persons, has served
as an officer.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
    There are no material pending legal proceedings to which any trustee or
affiliated person is a party adverse to the funds or any of its affiliated
persons or has a material interest adverse to the funds or any of its
affiliated persons. In addition, there have been no legal proceedings that are
material to an evaluation of the ability or integrity of any trustee or
executive officer of the funds within the past five years.

                                  PROPOSAL 2

                         RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF
              THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
              (COMMON SHARES AND PREFERRED SHARES OF EACH FUND)

    The Trustees of each fund, including a majority of each fund's Independent
Trustees, have selected Deloitte & Touche, LLP ("Deloitte & Touche") to act as
independent registered public accounting firm for each fund's 2005 fiscal
year. The funds' 2005 fiscal year ends are: Premium Dividend I -- September
30, 2005; Premium Dividend II -- October 31, 2005; Select Dividend -- June 30,
2005; Global Dividend -- July 31, 2005; and Preferred Dividend -- May 31,
2005.

    The following table sets forth the aggregate fees billed by the
independent accountants for each fund's 2003 and 2004 fiscal years for
professional services rendered for: (i) the audit of the fund's annual
financial statements and the review of financial statements included in the
fund's reports to stockholders, (ii) assurance and related services that are
reasonably related to the audit of the fund's financial statements, (iii) tax
compliance, tax advice or tax planning and (iv) all services other than (i),
(ii) and (iii). The table also discloses the aggregate fees paid during the
2003 and 2004 calendar years to the funds', independent accountants by John
Hancock Advisers, LLC and any entity controlling, controlled by or under
common control with, John Hancock Advisers, LLC to the extent that the
engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of
registered investment companies (the "Adviser and Adviser Affiliates").

    The fund's Audit Committee has adopted procedures to pre-approve audit and
non-audit services for the funds and the Adviser and Adviser Affiliates. These
procedures identify certain types of audit and non-audit services that are
anticipated to be provided by Deloitte & Touche during a calendar year and,
provided the services are within the scope and value standards set forth in
the procedures, pre-approve those engagements. The scope and value criteria
are reviewed annually. These procedures require both audit and non-audit
sources to be approved by the Audit Committee prior to Deloitte & Touche being
engaged. In recommending Deloitte & Touche as the funds' independent
accountants, the Audit Committee has considered the compensation provided to
Deloitte & Touche for audit and non-audit services to the Adviser and Adviser
Affiliates and has determined that such compensation is not incompatible with
maintaining Deloitte & Touche's independence. The aggregate amount of non-
audit fees paid to Deloitte & Touche by the funds, the Adviser and an Advisor
Affiliate that provide services to the funds, which includes amounts described
above, were $171,475 and $96,250 for the years ending December 31, 2003 and
2004.

    Deloitte & Touche has advised the funds that it has no direct or indirect
financial interest in any of the funds. This selection is subject to the
approval by the shareholders of the funds at the meetings. The enclosed proxy
card provides space for instructions directing the proxies named on the card
to vote for, against, or abstain from ratifying that selection. A
representative of Deloitte & Touche is expected to be present at the meeting,
will have the opportunity to make a statement if the representative desires to
do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions relating to
the examination of the funds' financial statements.

    The Boards of Trustees, including each Fund's Independent Trustees,
unanimously recommend that shareholders ratify the selection of Deloitte &
Touche as independent registered public accounting firm of the funds.

VOTE REQUIRED TO RATIFY THE SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC
ACCOUNTING FIRM
    The approval of a "majority" (as described below) of the Common Shares and
the Preferred Shares, voting as a single class, of each fund is required to
ratify the selection of Deloitte & Touche as such fund's independent
registered public accounting firm for that fund's 2005 fiscal year.

                                MISCELLANEOUS

VOTING; QUORUM; ADJOURNMENT
    The following vote is required to approve each respective proposal:



PROPOSAL                                                                       VOTE REQUIRED
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                     
Election of Trustees                    For each class, a plurality of all votes cast, assuming a quorum exists.* A "plurality"
(Proposal 1)                            means that the five nominees up for election by the Common Shares or Preferred Shares
                                        receiving the greatest number of votes of the Common Shares or Preferred Shares, as the case
                                        may be, will be elected as Trustees, regardless of the number of votes cast.

                                        COMMON AND PREFERRED CLASSES VOTE SEPARATELY ON THIS PROPOSAL.

Ratification of Public Accountants      The affirmative vote of more than 50% of the votes cast, assuming a quorum exists.*
(Proposal 2)

                                        COMMON AND PREFERRED CLASSES VOTE TOGETHER AS A SINGLE CLASS ON THIS PROPOSAL.

------------
* In order for a "quorum" to exist, a majority of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote must be present at the meeting,
  either in person or by proxy, determined in accordance with the table below.


    Proposals 1 and 2 in this proxy statement are considered routine matters
on which brokers holding shares in "street name" may vote without instruction
under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange. While, as noted above, both of
the proposals in this proxy statement are routine, for non-routine proposals,
brokers that are member organizations of the New York Stock Exchange may vote
Preferred Shares for which they have not received instructions in proportion
to the shares for which they have received instructions. Proportionate voting
of Preferred Shares may occur on a non-routine proposal only if: (i) at least
30% of the Preferred Shares of the fund outstanding and entitled to vote have
been voted; (ii) less than 10% of such Preferred Shares voted against the
proposal; (iii) the shareholders of the Common Shares of the fund have
approved the proposal (except with respect to plurality votes); and (iv) a
majority of the Independent Trustees of the fund have approved the proposal.

    The following table summarizes how the quorum and voting requirements are
determined.

                                      exists.                                         Shares present by proxy will be voted by the
                                                                                      proxyholder in accordance with instructions

    If a quorum is not present, the persons named as proxies may vote their
proxies to adjourn the meeting to a later date. If a quorum is present, but
there are insufficient votes to approve any proposal, the persons named as
proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the meeting to permit further
solicitation. Shareholder action may be taken on one or more proposals prior
to such adjournment. Proxies instructing a vote for a proposal will be voted
in favor of an adjournment with respect to that proposal, and proxies
instructing a vote against a proposal will be voted against an adjournment
with respect to that proposal.

EXPENSES AND METHODS OF SOLICITATION
    The costs of the meeting, including the solicitation of proxies, will be
paid by the funds. Persons holding shares as nominees will be reimbursed by
the relevant fund, upon request, for their reasonable expenses in sending
soliciting material to the principals of the accounts. In addition to the
solicitation of proxies by mail, Trustees, officers and employees of the funds
or of the funds' investment adviser may solicit proxies in person or by
telephone. John Hancock Advisers, LLC, 101 Huntington Avenue, Boston,
Massachusetts 02199-7603, serves as each fund's investment adviser and serves
as the administrator of Premium Dividend I, Premium Dividend II, Select
Dividend, Global Dividend and Preferred Dividend. Mellon Investor Services LLC
has been retained to assist in the solicitation of proxies at a cost of
approximately $3,000 for each Fund, plus reasonable expenses.

TELEPHONE VOTING
    In addition to soliciting proxies by mail, by fax or in person, the funds
may also arrange to have votes recorded by telephone by officers and employees
of the funds or by the personnel of the adviser or the transfer agent or
solicitor. The telephone voting procedure is designed to verify a
shareholder's identity, to allow a shareholder to authorize the voting of
shares in accordance with the shareholder's instructions and to confirm that
the voting instructions have been properly recorded.

    o A shareholder will be called on a recorded line at the telephone number
      in the funds' account records and will be asked to provide the
      shareholder's social security number or other identifying information.

    o The shareholder will then be given an opportunity to authorize proxies to
      vote his or her shares at the meeting in accordance with the
      shareholder's instructions.

Alternatively, a shareholder may call the Funds' Voice Response Unit to vote;

    o Read the proxy statement and have your proxy card at hand.

    o Call the toll-free-number located on your proxy card.

    o Follow recorded instructions.

    With both methods of telephone voting, to ensure that the shareholder's
instructions have been recorded correctly, the shareholder will also receive a
confirmation of the voting instructions.

    If the shareholder decides after voting by telephone to attend the
Meeting, the shareholder can revoke the proxy at that time and vote the shares
at the Meeting.

INTERNET VOTING
    You will also have the opportunity to submit your voting instructions via
the Internet by utilizing a program provided through a vendor. Voting via the
Internet will not affect your right to vote in person if you decide to attend
the meeting. Do not mail the proxy card if you are voting via the Internet. To
vote via the Internet, you will need the information on your proxy card. These
Internet voting procedures are designed to authenticate shareholder
identities, to allow shareholders to give their voting instructions and to
confirm that shareholders' instructions have been recorded properly. If you
are voting via the Internet you should understand that there may be costs
associated with electronic access, such as usage charges from Internet access
providers and telephone companies, that must be borne to you.

    o Read the proxy statement and have your card on hand.

    o Go to the website listed on the card.

    o Follow the directions on the website. Please call 1-800-852-0218 if you
      have any problems.

    o To insure that your instructions have been recorded correctly, you will
      receive a confirmation of your voting instructions immediately after your
      submission.

OTHER MATTERS
    The management of the funds knows of no business to be brought before the
annual meetings except as mentioned above. If, however, any other matters were
properly to come before the meetings, the persons named in the enclosed form
of proxy intend to vote on such matters in accordance with their best
judgment. If any shareholders desire additional information about the matters
proposed for action, the management of the funds will provide further
information.

    The meeting is scheduled as a joint meeting of the respective shareholders
of the funds because the shareholders of the funds are generally expected to
consider and vote on similar matters. The Boards of Trustees of the funds have
determined that the use of this joint proxy statement for the meetings is in
the best interest of each fund's shareholders. In the event that any
shareholder present at the meetings objects to the holding of a joint meeting
and moves for an adjournment of the annual meeting with respect to his or her
fund to a time immediately after the annual meetings so that his or her fund's
meeting may be held separately, the persons named as proxies will vote in
favor of such adjournment.

    The shareholders of each fund will vote separately on each proposal, and
voting by shareholders of one fund will have no effect on the outcome of
voting by shareholders of the other funds.

                            SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

    Shareholder proposals intended to be presented at a fund's annual meeting
in 2006 must be received by that fund at its offices at 101 Huntington Avenue,
Boston, Massachusetts, after September 21, 2005 but no later than October 20,
2005 for inclusion in that fund's proxy statement relating to that meeting
(subject to certain exceptions).

              IT IS IMPORTANT THAT PROXIES BE RETURNED PROMPTLY

                              JOHN HANCOCK FUNDS
                           AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

    A. Membership. The Audit Committee shall be composed exclusively of
Trustees who are:

    o not "interested persons" ("Independent Trustees") as defined in the
      Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, of John Hancock Advisers, LLC
      (the "Adviser");

    o independent as defined by the New York Stock Exchange rules and Rule
      10A-3(b)(1) of the Exchange Act (except as otherwise permitted by the
      applicable rules of the NYSE);

    o financially literate, as such qualification is interpreted by the Board
      of Trustees in its business judgment, or must become financially literate
      within a reasonable period of time after his or her appointment to the
      Audit Committee; and

    o free of any relationship that, in the opinion of the Administration
      Committee, may interfere or give the appearance of interfering with such
      member's individual exercise of independent judgment.

    The Audit Committee shall be composed of at least three Independent
Trustees who are designated for membership from time to time by the
Administration Committee, subject to ratification by the Board of Trustees. At
least one member of the Audit Committee must have accounting or related
financial management expertise, as the Board of Trustees interprets such
qualification in its business judgment.

    B. Purpose. The Audit Committee's purpose is to:

    1. assist the Board of Trustee's oversight of (1) the integrity of the
       funds' financial statements, (2) the funds' compliance with legal and
       regulatory requirements (except to the extent such responsibility is
       delegated to another committee), (3) the independent auditor's
       qualifications and independence, and (4) the performance of the funds'
       independent auditors and internal;

    2. act as a liaison between the funds' independent auditors and the full
       Board;

    3. to approve prior to appointment the funds' independent auditors and to
       review and evaluate the qualifications, independence and performance of
       the funds' independent auditors; and

    4. prepare the Audit Committee Report to be included in the funds' annual
       proxy statement or other filings, as required by the Securities and
       Exchange Commission (SEC).

    The Audit Committee shall discharge its responsibilities, and shall access
the information provided by the funds' management and independent auditors, in
accordance with its business judgment.

    C. Oversight. Oversight is the primary role of the Audit Committee. The
Adviser is responsible for maintaining appropriate systems for accounting and
internal controls and preparing the funds' financial statements. The
independent auditors are responsible for auditing the funds' financial
statements. The Audit Committee and the Board of Trustees recognize that the
funds' officers, the Adviser and the independent auditors have more
experience, expertise, resources and time, and more detailed knowledge and
information regarding the funds' accounting, auditing, internal control and
financial reporting practices than the Audit Committee does. Accordingly, the
Audit Committee's oversight role is not intended to provide any expert or
special assurance as to the financial statements and other financial
information provided by a fund to its shareholders and others. The authority
and responsibilities set forth in this Charter do not reflect or create any
duty or obligation of the Audit Committee to plan or conduct any audit, to
determine or certify that any fund's financial statements are complete,
accurate, fairly presented, or in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles or applicable law, or to guarantee any independent
auditor's report.

    The independent auditors shall report directly to the Audit Committee, and
the Audit Committee shall be directly responsible for oversight of the work of
the independent auditors, including resolution of disagreements between any
fund's officers, the Adviser and the independent auditors regarding financial
reporting.

    D. Specific Responsibilities. The Audit Committee shall have the following
duties and powers, to be exercised at such times and in such manner as the
Committee shall deem necessary or appropriate:

     1. To act as a liaison between the funds' independent auditors and the
        Board of Trustees and to report regularly to the Board of Trustees the
        Audit Committee's conclusions with respect to the independent auditors
        and the funds' financial statements and accounting controls.

     2. To approve, and recommend to the Board of Trustees for its
        ratification, the selection, appointment, retention and compensation
        of an independent auditor for each fund prior to the engagement of
        that independent auditor.

     3. To meet with independent auditors, including private meetings, and, as
        necessary, the Adviser's internal auditors and the funds' officers to
        review:

        o the arrangements for and scope of the annual audit and any special
          audits;

        o the funds' financial statements and reports and to discuss any
          matters of concern relating to the funds' financial statements,
          including the independent auditor's comments on such financial
          statements;

        o the funds' policies with respect to risk assessment and risk
          management;

        o the resolution of any disagreements between the independent auditors
          and the Adviser regarding the funds' financial reporting; and

        o the form of opinion the independent auditors propose to render to the
          Board of Trustees and shareholders.

     4. To monitor the independent auditors to attempt to identify:

        o conflicts of interest between the funds and the independent auditors
          as a result of employment relationships;

        o the provision of prohibited non-audit services to a fund by its
          independent auditor; violations of audit partner rotation
          requirements; and

        o prohibited independent auditor compensation arrangements whereby
          individuals employed by the auditor are compensated based on selling
          non- audit services to the fund.

        The independent auditors should promptly contact the Audit Committee
        or its Chair about any significant issue or disagreement concerning a
        fund's accounting practices or financial statements that is not
        resolved to their satisfaction or if Section 10A(b) of the Exchange
        Act has been implicated.

     5. To ensure that the independent auditors inform the Audit Committee on
        a periodic basis of all relationships between the independent auditors
        and the Adviser; to engage in a dialogue with the independent auditors
        with respect to any disclosed relationships or services that may
        impact the objectivity and independence of the independent auditors;
        and to recommend that the Board of Trustees take appropriate action in
        response to the independent auditors' report.

     6. To pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided to each fund
        by its independent auditors, directly or by establishing pre-approval
        policies and procedures pursuant to which such services may be
        rendered. To pre-approve all non-audit services provided by the funds'
        independent auditors to the Adviser and any entity controlling,
        controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser that provides
        ongoing services to a fund, if the engagement relates directly to the
        operations and financial reporting of the fund. The Audit Committee is
        authorized to delegate, to the extent permitted by law, pre-approval
        responsibilities to one or more members of the Audit Committee who
        shall report to the Audit Committee regarding approved services at the
        Audit Committee's next regularly scheduled meeting.

     7. With respect to any fund listed on the New York Stock Exchange, to
        consider whether the Audit Committee will recommend to the Board of
        Trustees that the audited financial statements be included in the
        fund's annual report. The Board of Trustees delegates to the Audit
        Committee the authority to release the funds' financial statements for
        publication in the annual and semi-annual report, subject to the Board
        of Trustees' right to review and ratify such financial statements
        following publication. The Audit Committee shall prepare an annual
        committee report for inclusion where necessary in the proxy statement
        of a fund relating to its annual meeting of security holders or in any
        other filing required by the SEC's rules.

     8. To obtain and review, at least annually, a report by the independent
        auditor describing: its own internal quality-control procedures; any
        material issues raised by the most recent internal quality-control
        review, or peer review, of the firm, or by any inquiry or
        investigation by governmental or professional authorities, within the
        preceding five years, regarding any independent audit by the firm, and
        any steps taken to deal with any such issues; and, to assess the
        auditor's independence, all relationships between the independent
        auditor and each fund, including the disclosures required by any
        applicable Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1.

     9. To review with the independent auditor any problems that may be
        reported to the Audit Committee arising out of a fund's accounting,
        auditing or financial reporting functions and management's response,
        and to receive and consider reports on critical accounting policies
        and practices and alternative treatments discussed with management.

    10. To investigate improprieties or suspected improprieties in the
        operations of a fund and to establish procedures for the confidential,
        anonymous submission by employees of the Adviser or any other provider
        of accounting related services of complaints regarding accounting,
        internal accounting controls, or auditing matters. The procedures
        currently in effect are attached as Exhibit A.

    11. To review with the funds' principal executive officer and/or principal
        financial officer in connection with required certifications on Form
        N-CSR any significant deficiencies in the design or operation of
        internal control over financial reporting or material weaknesses
        therein and any reported evidence or fraud involving management or
        other employees who have a significant role in the fund's internal
        control over financial reporting.

    E. Subcommittees. The Audit Committee may, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, form and delegate authority to one or more subcommittees
(including a subcommittee consisting of a single member), as it deems
appropriate from time to time under the circumstances. Any decision of a
subcommittee to preapprove audit or non-audit services shall be presented to
the full Audit Committee at its next meeting.

    F. Additional Responsibilities. The Committee shall serve as the
"qualified legal compliance committee" (as such term is defined in 17 CFR Part
205)("QLCC"), the duties of which are listed on Exhibit B to this charter; and
shall also perform other tasks assigned to it from time to time by the
Administration Committee or the full Board, and will report findings and
recommendations to the Administration Committee or the full Board, as
appropriate.

    G. Funding. Each fund shall provide for appropriate funding, as determined
by the Audit Committee, in its capacity as a committee of the Board of
Trustees, for payment of:

    o Compensation to any registered public accounting firm engaged for the
      purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other
      audit, review or attest services for the fund.

    o Compensation to any advisers employed by the Audit Committee under its
      authority to engage independent counsel and other advisers.

    o Ordinary administrative expenses of the Audit Committee that are
      necessary or appropriate in carrying out its duties.

    H. Governance. One member of the Committee shall be appointed as chair.
The chair shall be responsible for leadership of the Committee, including
scheduling meetings or reviewing and approving the schedule for them,
preparing agendas or reviewing and approving them before meetings, presiding
over meetings, and making reports to the Administration Committee or the full
Board, as appropriate.

    The designation of a person as an "audit committee financial expert"
within the meaning of the rules under Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002, shall not impose any greater responsibility or liability on that person
than the responsibility and liability imposed on such person as a member of
the Committee, nor shall it decrease the duties and obligations of other
Committee members or the Board.

    The compensation of Audit Committee members shall be as determined by the
Board of Trustees. No member of the Audit Committee may receive, directly or
indirectly, any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from a fund,
other than fees paid in his or her capacity as a member of the Board of
Trustees or as a member of a committee of the Board.

    I. Evaluation. At least annually, the Audit Committee shall evaluate its
own performance, including whether the Audit Committee is meeting frequently
enough to discharge its responsibilities appropriately. The Committee shall
review this charter at least annually and shall recommend such changes to the
Administration Committee or the full Board as it deems appropriate.


                                  EXHIBIT A

         POLICY FOR RAISING AND INVESTIGATING COMPLAINTS OR CONCERNS
                     ABOUT ACCOUNTING OR AUDITING MATTERS

    As contemplated by the Audit Committee Charter, the Committee has
established the following procedures for:

    o the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by a fund
      regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters;
      and

    o the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of the John Hancock
      Advisers, LLC or its affiliates of concerns regarding questionable
      accounting or auditing matters.

A.  Policy Objectives

    The objective of this policy is to provide a mechanism by which complaints
and concerns regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing
matters may be raised and addressed without the fear or threat of retaliation.
The funds desire and expects that the employees and officers of John Hancock
Advisers, LLC or any other service provider to the funds will report any
complaints or concerns they may have regarding accounting, internal accounting
controls or auditing matters.

B.  Procedures for Raising Complaints and Concerns

    Persons with complaints regarding accounting, internal accounting controls
or auditing matters or concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing
matters may submit such complaints or concerns to the attention of the funds'
Secretary by sending a letter or other writing to the funds' principal
executive offices. Complaints and concerns may be made anonymously to any of
the above individuals. In addition any complaints or concerns may also be
communicated anonymously, directly to any member of the Audit Committee.

C.  Procedures for Investigating and Resolving Complaints and Concerns

    All complaints and concerns received will be promptly forwarded to the
Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees or the chair of the Audit Committee,
unless they are determined to be without merit by Secretary of the funds. If
sent only to the chair, the chair may determine the appropriate response or
may refer the issues to the entire Audit Committee. In any event, the funds'
Secretary will provide a record of all complaints and concerns received
(whether or not determined to have merit) to the Audit Committee each fiscal
quarter.

    The Audit Committee will evaluate any complaints or concerns received
(including those reported to the committee on a quarterly basis and which the
funds' Secretary has previously determined to be without merit). If the Audit
Committee requires additional information to evaluate any complaint or
concern, it may conduct an investigation, including interviews of persons
believed to have relevant information. The Audit Committee may, in its
discretion, assume responsibility for directing or conducting any
investigation or may delegate such responsibility to another person or entity.

    After its evaluation of the complaint or concern, the Audit Committee will
authorize such follow-up actions, if any, as deemed necessary and appropriate
to address the substance of the complaint or concern. The funds reserve the
right to take whatever action the Audit Committee believes appropriate, up to
and including discharge of any employee deemed to have engaged in improper
conduct.

    Regardless of whether a complaint or concern is submitted anonymously, the
Audit Committee will strive to keep all complaints and concerns and the
identity of those who submit them and participate in any investigation as
confidential as possible, limiting disclosure to those with a business need to
know.

    John Hancock Advisers, LLC and its affiliates shall not penalize or
retaliate against any person or entity for reporting a complaint or concern,
unless it is determined that the complaint or concern was made with knowledge
that it was false. The funds will not tolerate retaliation against any person
or entity for submitting, or for cooperating in the investigation of, a
complaint or concern. Moreover, any such retaliation is unlawful and may
result in criminal action. Any retaliation will warrant disciplinary action
against the offending party, up to and including termination of employment.

    John Hancock Advisers, LLC and its subadvisers shall include this policy
in its employee manual and shall distribute, at least annually, the policy to
all of its employees.

    The funds shall retain records of all complaints and concerns received,
and the disposition thereof, for five years.


                                  EXHIBIT B

                QUALIFIED LEGAL COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE ("QLCC")
                         DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

    The QLCC shall adopt written procedures for the confidential receipt,
retention, and consideration of any report of evidence of a material
violation.

    The QLCC has the authority and responsibility, once a report of evidence
of a material violation by a fund, its officers, directors, employees or
agents has been received by the QLCC:

      (i) to inform the CLO and CEO of such report (except in the case where
          the reporting attorney reasonably believes that it would be futile
          to report evidence of a material violation to the CLO and CEO, and
          has informed the QLCC of such belief); and

     (ii) to determine whether an investigation is necessary or appropriate,
          and, if it determines an investigation is necessary or appropriate,
          to:

            (A) notify the full board of directors;

            (B) initiate an investigation, which may be conducted either by the
                CLO or by outside attorneys; and

            (C) retain such additional expert personnel as the QLCC deems
                necessary;

          and, at the conclusion of such investigation, to:

            (A) recommend, by majority vote, that the fund implement an
                appropriate response to evidence of a material violation; and

            (B) inform the CLO and the CEO and the Board of Trustees of the
                results of any such investigation and the appropriate remedial
                measures.

    (iii) by majority vote, to take all other appropriate action, including
          notifying the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in the event
          that the fund fails in any material respect to implement an
          appropriate response that the QLCC has recommended.

    The information contained in this report shall not be deemed to be
"soliciting material" or "filed" or incorporated by reference in future
filings with the SEC, or subject to the liabilities of Section 18 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent that we specifically
incorporate it by reference into a document filed under the Securities Act of
1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

    The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with the Fund's management
and Deloitte & Touche LLP the audited financial statements of the Funds
contained in the Annual Reports on Form N-CSR for the 2004 fiscal year. The
Audit Committee has also discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP the matters
required to be discussed pursuant to SAS No. 61 (Codification of Statements on
Auditing Standards, AU Section 380), which includes, amount other items,
matters related to the conduct of the audit of the Fund's financial
statements.

    The Audit Committee has received and reviewed the written disclosures and
the letter from Deloitte & Touche LLP required by Independence Standards Board
Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), and has
discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP its independence from the Funds.

    Based on the review and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee
recommended to the Board of Trustees that the audited financial statements be
included in each Fund's Annual Report on Form N-CSR for filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

                       Submitted by the Audit Committee
                           John P. Toolan, Chairman

necessary to carry out its duties. The Committee shall have direct access to
such officers of and service providers to the funds as it deems desirable.

    H. Review. The Committee shall review this Charter periodically and
recommend such changes to the full Board as it deems desirable.


                                   ANNEX A

GENERAL CRITERIA

    1. Nominees should have a reputation for integrity, honesty and adherence
       to high ethical standards.

    2. Nominees should have demonstrated business acumen, experience and
       ability to exercise sound judgments in matters that relate to the
       current and long-term objectives of the Fund(s) and should be willing
       and able to contribute positively to the decision-making process of the
       Fund(s).

    3. Nominees should have a commitment to understand the Fund(s), and the
       responsibilities of a Trustee/Director of an investment company and to
       regularly attend and participate in meetings of the Board and its
       committees.

    4. Nominees should have the ability to understand the sometimes
       conflicting interests of the various constituencies of the Fund,
       including shareholders and the management company, and to act in the
       interests of all shareholders.

    5. Nominees should not have, nor appear to have, a conflict of interest
       that would impair the nominee's ability to represent the interests of
       all the shareholders and to fulfill the responsibilities of a director
       /trustee.

    6. Nominees shall not be discriminated against on the basis of race,
       religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, disability or any
       other basis proscribed by law. The value of diversity on the Board
       should be considered.

APPLICATION OF CRITERIA TO EXISTING
    The renomination of existing Trustees should not be viewed as automatic,
but should be based on continuing qualification under the criteria set forth
above. In addition, the Administrative Committee shall consider the existing
trustees' performance on the Board and any committee.

REVIEW OF SHAREHOLDER NOMINATIONS
    Any shareholder recommendation must be submitted in compliance with all of
the pertinent provisions of Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 to be considered by the Administration Committee. In evaluating a nominee
recommended by a shareholder, the Administration Committee, in addition to the
criteria discussed above, may consider the objectives of the shareholder in
submitting that nomination and whether such objectives are consistent with the
interests of all shareholders. If the Board determines to include a
shareholder's candidate among the slate of nominees, the candidate's name will
be placed on the Fund's proxy card. If the Administration Committee or the
Board determines not to include such candidate among the Board's designated
nominees and the shareholder has satisfied the requirements of Rule 14a-8, the
shareholder's candidate will be treated as a nominee of the shareholder who
originally nominated the candidate. In that case, the candidate will not be
named on the proxy card distributed with the Fund's proxy statement.

    As long as an existing Independent Trustee continues, in the opinion of
the Administration Committee, to satisfy the criteria listed above, the
Committee generally would favor the re-nomination of an existing Trustee
rather than a new candidate. Consequently, while the Administration Committee
will consider nominees recommended by shareholders to serve as trustees, the
Administration Committee may only act upon such recommendations if there is a
vacancy on the Board or the Administration Committee determines that the
selection of a new or additional Independent Trustee is in the best interests
of the Fund. In the event that a vacancy arises or a change in Board
membership is determined to be advisable, the Administration Committee will,
in addition to any shareholder recommendations, consider candidates identified
by other means, including candidates proposed by members of the Administration
Committee. While it has not done so in the past, the Administration Committee
may retain a consultant to assist the Committee in a search for a qualified
candidate.

COMMUNICATIONS FROM SHAREHOLDERS
    Shareholders may communicate with the members of the Board as a group or
individually. Any such communication should be sent to the Board or an
individual Trustee c/o the secretary of the Fund at the address on the notice
of this meeting. The Secretary may determine not to forward any letter to the
members of the Board that does not relate to the business of the Fund.
