Performance of other annuity products issued by John Hancock Life Insurance Company (U.S.A.) or John Hancock Life Insurance Company of New York will not be the same due to different charges. Results are based on historical performance of the Venture 4 Variable Annuity subaccount of John Hancock Life Insurance Company (U.S.A.) Separate Account H or John Hancock Life Insurance Company of New York Separate Account A (the Separate Accounts ) that invest in corresponding portfolios of the John Hancock Variable Insurance Trust (JHVIT). The intent is to reflect performance of a hypothetical investment in a subaccount of the Separate Accounts since its commencement of operations. Performance reflects the asset charges for Series I shares of the underlying JHVIT Portfolios from inception to 1/27/02 and the asset charges for the underlying Series II shares for the periods subsequent to 1/27/02. The performance for Series II shares will be lower than Series I shares due to the Series II 12b-1 fees. During the time period shown in the chart, the Lifestyle portfolios fund-level expenses were partially reimbursed. If such expenses had not been reimbursed, returns would be lower. The investment objectives and policies of these JHVIT portfolios may be similar to those of other funds managed by the same investment managers. There is no guarantee that any portfolio s investment results will be comparable to the investment results of another fund, including other funds with the same manager. Investment results will differ and be higher or lower than the investment results of other such funds. GLOSSARY OF TERMS Nonstandardized performance reflects hypothetical changes in the Venture 4 Variable Annuity unit values since the inception of the underlying portfolio, which may be earlier than the date the portfolio became available in John Hancock s variable annuity separate accounts.

If the nonstandardized performance reflected these charges, performance would be lower where such charges are applicable.

The adjusted nonstandardized performance reflects the maximum withdrawal charge of 6% decreasing over 4 years to zero.

Standard deviation describes by how much and with what likelihood an asset class might miss its average return. The higher a portfolio s overall standard deviation, the greater the volatility it might experience in the underlying asset.

The standardized performance and adjusted non-standardized performance reflect the contract s withdrawal charge of 6% decreasing over 3 years to zero. The non-standardized performance does not reflect withdrawal charges. If the non-standardized performance reflected these fees, performance would be lower in the years the charges applied. The performance data presented represents past performance. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results, and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. The investment return and total value of a contract will fluctuate so that a client s interest in the contract, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than its original cost. For the most recent month-end performance, please contact your financial advisor, visit our website at www.jhannuities.com or www.jhannuitiesnewyork.com, or call 800-344-1029. Performance shown is that of the Venture 4 Variable Annuity product. Performance of other annuity products issued by John Hancock Life Insurance Company (U.S.A.) or John Hancock Life Insurance Company of New York will not be the same due to different charges. Results are based on historical performance of the John Hancock Life Insurance Company (U.S.A.) Separate Account H, or of the John Hancock Life Insurance Company of New York Separate Account A, Venture 4 Variable Annuity sub-accounts that invest in corresponding portfolios of the John Hancock Variable Insurance Trust (JHVIT). The intent is to reflect performance of a hypothetical investment in a sub-account since its commencement of operations. The investment objectives and policies of these JHVIT portfolios may be similar to those of other funds managed by the same investment sub-advisors [or portfolio managers]. There is no guarantee that any portfolio s investment results will be comparable to the investment results of another fund, including other funds with the same sub-advisor. Investment results will differ and be higher or lower than the investment results of other such funds. This material is authorized for distribution only when preceded or accompanied by current Venture 4 Variable Annuities product and fund prospectuses that contain complete details on investment objectives, risks, fees, charges, and expenses as well as other information about the contract and the underlying portfolios of the investment company. Please read the prospectuses and consider these factors carefully before purchasing. For additional prospectuses, please contact your financial advisor or visit www.jhannuities.com or www.jhannuitiesnewyork.com. Withdrawals may be subject to withdrawal charges and will reduce the death benefit, optional benefits and contract value. Withdrawals will come first from any gain in the contract. In addition, withdrawals of taxable amounts will be subject to ordinary income tax and, if made prior to age 59½, a 10% IRS penalty tax may apply. Variable annuities are not FDIC insured, are long-term contracts designed for retirement purposes, and are subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of principal. Diversification, asset allocation or rebalancing does not guarantee a profit or protect against a loss. Please note that asset allocation may not be appropriate for everyone, particularly those interested in directing the underlying portfolio options of their annuity contract on their own. The Company does not provide advice regarding appropriate portfolio allocations; please discuss this matter with your financial advisor.
