Performance figures assume all distributions have been reinvested. Figures reflect maximum sales charges on Class A shares of 4.5% and the applicable contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) on Class B and Class C shares. The returns for Class C shares have been adjusted to reflect the elimination of the front-end sales charge effective 7-15-04. The Class B shares’ CDSC declines annually between years 1 to 6 according to the following schedule: 5, 4, 3, 3, 2, 1%. No sales charge will be assessed after the sixth year. Class C shares held for less than one year are subject to a 1% CDSC. Sales charges are not applicable to Class I, Class R2, and Class R6 shares.

The expense ratios of the fund, both net (including any fee waivers or expense limitations) and gross (excluding any fee waivers or expense limitations), are set forth according to the most recent publicly available prospectuses for the fund and may differ from those disclosed in the Financial highlights tables in this report. The fee waivers and expense limitations are contractual at least until 9-30-13 for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I, Class R2, and Class R6 shares. Had the fee waivers and expense limitations not been in place, gross expenses would apply. The expense ratios are as follows:

	Class A	Class B	Class C	Class I	Class R2*	Class R6
Net (%)	1.01	1.71	1.71	0.61	1.04	0.54
Gross (%)	1.06	1.76	1.76	0.66	1.09	0.59

* Expenses have been estimated for the Class’s first full year of operations.

The returns reflect past results and should not be considered indicative of future performance. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Due to market volatility, the fund’s current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown. For current to the most recent month-end performance data, please call 800-225-5291 or visit the fund’s website at jhfunds.com.

The performance table above and the chart on the next page do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder may pay on fund distributions or on the redemption of fund shares. The fund’s performance results reflect any applicable fee waivers or expense reductions, without which the expenses would increase and results would have been less favorable.

^† Index is the Barclays Government/Credit Bond Index.

Performance of the classes will vary based on the difference in sales charges paid by shareholders investing in the different classes and the fee structure of those classes.

The Class C shares investment with maximum sales charge has been adjusted to reflect the elimination of the front-end sales charge effective 7-15-04.

Barclays Government/Credit Bond Index is an unmanaged index of U.S. government bonds, U.S. corporate bonds, and Yankee bonds.

It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Index figures do not reflect expenses or sales charges, which would have resulted in lower values if they did.

Management’s discussion of
Fund performance

John Hancock Asset Management a division of Manulife Asset Management (US) LLC

Effective May 15, 2013, Barry Evans relinquished his role as portfolio manager on the fund, as he assumes a new leadership role as president of John Hancock Asset Management a division of Manulife Asset Management (North America) Limited. The fund continues to be managed by Howard Greene and Jeffrey Given.

Performance in fixed-income markets was mixed over the past year, with U.S. Treasuries and AAA-rated debt significantly underperforming more speculative sectors of the market. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, a broad measure of domestic bond-market performance, returned 0.91% for the 12-month period. Corporate bonds generally outperformed government debt, with high-yield bonds leading the market. Certain securitized sectors, including segments of the mortgage-backed securities market, also posted strong returns.

For the year ended May 31, 2013, John Hancock Bond Fund’s Class A shares posted a total return of 7.93%, excluding sales charges. By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Barclays Government/Credit Bond Index, returned 1.19%, and the fund’s peer group, the Morningstar, Inc. intermediate-term bond fund category, posted an average return of 3.48%.^† Our decision to continue to avoid U.S. Treasuries in favor of high-yield bonds and certain mortgage-backed securities was the primary driver of the fund’s outperformance. U.S. Treasury yields had hit record lows in July 2012, and with the economy continuing to improve, we believed the risks of higher interest rates far outweighed the potential rewards. This turned out to be the right call for the fund: Interest rates have crept steadily higher in 2013, and Treasuries—whose prices are driven almost entirely by interest-rate movements—posted sizeable losses. Meanwhile, the high-yield market posted robust gains during the period amid strong demand, and our sizable position benefited performance. The fund’s allocation to nonagency residential mortgage-backed securities also performed well. When the housing market began to correct, this sector sold off dramatically. While we don’t necessarily believe these securities will return to par, the default and foreclosure rates affiliated with these securities have been declining, and the cash flow has been solid.

This commentary reflects the views of the portfolio managers through the end of the period discussed in this report. As such, they are in no way guarantees of future events and are not intended to be used as investment advice or a recommendation regarding any specific security. They are also subject to change at any time as market and other conditions warrant.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

^† Figures from Morningstar, Inc. include reinvested distributions and do not take into account sales charges. Actual load-adjusted performance is lower.

Your expenses

These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing operating expenses of investing in the fund so you can compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Understanding fund expenses

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur two types of costs:

■ Transaction costs, which include sales charges (loads) on purchases or redemptions (varies by share class), minimum account fee charge, etc.

■ Ongoing operating expenses, including management fees, distribution and service fees (if applicable), and other fund expenses.

We are going to present only your ongoing operating expenses here.

Actual expenses/actual returns

This example is intended to provide information about the fund’s actual ongoing operating expenses and is based on the fund’s actual return. It assumes an account value of $1,000.00 on December 1, 2012, with the same investment held until May 31, 2013.

	Account value	Ending value	Expenses paid during
	on 12-1-12	on 5-31-13	period ended 5-31-131
Class A	$1,000.00	$1,019.10	$4.88
Class B	1,000.00	1,015.60	8.39
Class C	1,000.00	1,015.50	8.39
Class I	1,000.00	1,021.00	2.97
Class R2	1,000.00	1,020.10	5.09
Class R6	1,000.00	1,021.40	2.62

Together with the value of your account, you may use this information to estimate the operating expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value at May 31, 2013, by $1,000.00, then multiply it by the “expenses paid” for your share class from the table above. For example, for an account value of $8,600.00, the operating expenses should be calculated as follows:

Your expenses

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes

This table allows you to compare the fund’s ongoing operating expenses with those of any other fund. It provides an example of the fund’s hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each class’s actual expense ratio and an assumed 5% annualized return before expenses (which is not the fund’s actual return). It assumes an account value of $1,000.00 on December 1, 2012, with the same investment held until May 31, 2013. Look in any other fund shareholder report to find its hypothetical example and you will be able to compare these expenses. Please remember that these hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period.

	Account value	Ending value	Expenses paid during
	on 12-1-12	on 5-31-13	period ended 5-31-131
Class A	$1,000.00	$1,020.10	$4.89
Class B	1,000.00	1,016.60	8.40
Class C	1,000.00	1,016.60	8.40
Class I	1,000.00	1,022.00	2.97
Class R2	1,000.00	1,019.90	5.09
Class R6	1,000.00	1,022.30	2.62

Remember, these examples do not include any transaction costs, therefore, these examples will not help you to determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included, your expenses would have been higher. See the prospectuses for details regarding transaction costs.

¹ Expenses are equal to the fund’s annualized expense ratio of 0.97%, 1.67%, 1.67%, 0.59%, 1.01%, and 0.52% for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I, Class R2, and Class R6 shares, respectively, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

¹ As a percentage of net assets on 5-31-13.

² Ratings are from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. If not available, we have used ratings from Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services. In the absence of ratings from these agencies, we have used Fitch Ratings, Inc. ratings. “Not Rated” securities are those with no ratings available from these agencies. All ratings are as of 5-31-13 and do not reflect subsequent downgrades or upgrades, if any.

Fixed-income investments are subject to interest-rate and credit risk; their value will normally decline as interest rates rise or if the creditor is unable or unwilling to make principal or interest payments. Investments in higher-yielding, lower-rated securities involve additional risks as these securities include a higher risk of default and loss of principal. Foreign investing, especially in emerging markets, has additional risks, such as currency and market volatility and political and social instability. Mortgage and asset-backed securities may be sensitive to changes in interest rates, subject to early repayment risk and their value may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of issuer creditworthiness. The use of hedging and derivatives transactions could produce disproportionate gains or losses and may increase volatility and costs. For additional information on these and other risk considerations, please see the Fund’s prospectuses.

Notes to financial statements

Note 1 — Organization

John Hancock Bond Fund (the Fund) is a series of John Hancock Sovereign Bond Fund (the Trust), an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). The investment objective of the Fund is to seek a high level of current income consistent with prudent investment risk.

The Fund may offer multiple classes of shares. The shares currently offered are detailed in the Statement of assets and liabilities. Class A and Class C shares are offered to all investors. Class B shares are closed to new investors. Class I shares are offered to institutions, certain investors and certain 529 plans. Class R2 shares are available only to certain retirement plans. Class R6 shares are available only to certain retirement plans, institutions and other investors. Shareholders of each class have exclusive voting rights to matters that affect that class. The distribution and service fees, if any, and transfer agent fees for each class may differ. Class B shares convert to Class A shares eight years after purchase.

Note 2 — Significant accounting policies

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be significant. Events or transactions occurring after the end of the fiscal period through the date that the 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 stated at value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally at 4:00 P.M., Eastern Time. In order to value the securities, the Fund uses the following valuation techniques: Equity securities held by the Fund are valued at the last sale price or official closing price on the principal securities exchange on which they trade. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, the securities are valued using the last quoted bid or evaluated price. Debt obligations are valued based on the evaluated prices provided by an independent pricing service, which utilizes both dealer-supplied and electronic data processing techniques, taking 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. Futures contracts are valued at the quoted daily settlement prices established by the exchange on which they trade. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rates supplied by an independent pricing service. Certain securities and traded only in the over-the-counter market are valued at the last bid price quoted by brokers making markets in the securities at the close of trading. Certain short-term securities are valued at amortized cost. Other portfolio securities and assets, for which reliable market quotations are not readily available, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s Pricing Committee following procedures established by the Board of Trustees, which include price verification procedures. The frequency with which these fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and fair value of securities may differ significantly from the value that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed.

Annual report | Bond Fund  39 

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 Fund’s own 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 may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy.

The following is a summary of the values by input classification of the Fund’s investments as of May 31, 2013, by major security category or type:

Repurchase agreements. The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements. When the Fund enters into a repurchase agreement, it receives collateral that is held in a segregated account by the Fund’s custodian. The collateral amount is marked-to-market and monitored on a daily basis to ensure that the collateral held is in an amount not less than the principal amount of the repurchase agreement plus any accrued interest. In the event of a default by the counterparty, realization of the collateral proceeds could be delayed, during which time the collateral value may decline. Collateral for certain tri-party repurchase agreements is held at a third-party custodian bank in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund.

Security transactions and related investment income. Investment security transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one basis for daily net asset value 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

40  Bond Fund | Annual report 

receivable when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-date, except for dividends of foreign securities where the dividend may not be known until after the ex-date. In those cases, dividend income, net of withholding taxes, is recorded when the Fund becomes aware of the dividends. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds from litigation.

Securities lending. The Fund may lend its portfolio securities to earn additional income. It receives cash collateral from the borrower in an amount not less than the market value of the loaned securities. The fund will invest its collateral in John Hancock Collateral Investment Trust (JHCIT), an affiliate of the Fund, which has a floating net asset value (NAV). JHCIT invests in short-term investments as part of the securities lending program, and as a result, the Fund will receive the benefit of any gains and bear any losses generated by JHCIT. Although the risk of the loss of the securities lent is mitigated by receiving collateral from the borrower and through securities lending provider indemnification, the Fund could experience a delay in recovering its securities and possible losses of income or value if the borrower fails to return the securities, collateral investments decline in value or the fund loses its rights in the collateral should the borrower fail financially. The Fund may receive compensation for lending its securities by retaining a portion of the return on the investment of the collateral and compensation from fees earned from borrowers of the securities. Net income received from JHCIT is a component of securities lending income as recorded on the Statement of operations.

Stripped securities. Stripped securities are financial instruments structured to separate principal and interest cash flows so that one class receives principal payments from the underlying assets (PO or principal only), while the other class receives the interest cash flows (IO or interest only). Both PO and IO investments represent an interest in the cash flows of an underlying stripped security. If the underlying assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the Fund may fail to fully recover its initial investment in an IO security. The market value of these securities can be extremely volatile in response to changes in interest rates. In addition, these securities present additional credit risk such that the Fund may not receive all or part of its principal or interest payments because the borrower or issuer has defaulted on its obligation.

Line of credit. The Fund may borrow from banks for temporary or emergency purposes, including meeting redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely sale of securities. Pursuant to the Fund’s custodian agreement, the custodian may loan money to the Fund to make properly authorized payments. The Fund is obligated to repay the custodian for any overdraft, including any related costs or expenses. 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.

In addition, the Fund and other affiliated funds have entered into an agreement with Citibank N.A. that enables them to participate in a $300 million unsecured committed line of credit. A commitment fee, payable at the end of each calendar quarter, based on the average daily unused portion of the line of credit, is charged to each participating fund on a pro rata basis and is reflected in other expenses on the Statement of operations. Prior to March 27, 2013, the Fund participated in a $100 million unsecured line of credit, also with Citibank, with terms otherwise similar to the existing agreement. Commitment fees for the year ended May 31, 2013 were $2,275. For the year ended May 31, 2013, the Fund had no borrowings under either line of credit.

Expenses. Within the John Hancock Funds complex, expenses that are directly attributable to an individual fund are allocated to such fund. Expenses that are not readily attributable to a specific fund are allocated among all funds in an equitable manner, taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the fund’s relative net assets. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.

Annual report | Bond Fund  41 

Class allocations. Income, common expenses and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are determined at the fund level and allocated daily to each class of shares based on the net assets of the class. Class-specific expenses, such as distribution and service fees, if any, and transfer agent fees, are calculated daily for each class, based on the net asset value of the class and the applicable specific expense rates.

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.

As of, May 31, 2013 the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require 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 dividends daily and pays them monthly. Capital gain distributions, if any, are distributed annually. The tax character of distributions for the years ended May 31, 2013 and 2012 was as follows:

	MAY 31, 2013	MAY 31, 2012
Ordinary Income	$73,276,065	$57,781,022
Long-Term Capital Gain	—	$1,013,539

Distributions paid by the Fund with respect to each class of shares are calculated in the same manner, at the same time and in the same amount, except for the effect of class level expenses that may be applied differently to each class. As of May 31, 2013, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis consisted of $7,605,925 of undistributed ordinary income and $4,151,767 of long-term capital gains.

Such distributions and distributable earnings, on a tax basis, are determined in conformity with income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Material distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits, if any, are reported in the Fund’s financial statements as a return of capital.

Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. 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 and amortization and accretion on debt securities.

New accounting pronouncements. In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11 (ASU 2011-11), Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities and in January 2013, Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-1, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. These updates create new disclosure requirements requiring entities to disclose both gross and net information for derivatives and other financial instruments that are either offset in the Statement of assets and liabilities or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The disclosure requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and interim periods within those annual periods. These updates may result in additional disclosure relating to the presentation of derivatives and certain other financial instruments.

Note 3 — Derivative instruments

The Fund may invest in derivatives in order to meet its investment objective. The use of derivatives involves risks different from, or potentially greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities. Specifically, the Fund is exposed to the risk that the counterparty to an over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives contract will be unable or unwilling to make timely settlement payments or otherwise honor its obligations. OTC derivatives transactions typically can only be closed out with the other party to the transaction. If the counterparty defaults, the Fund will have contractual remedies, but there is no assurance that the counterparty will meet its contractual obligations or that the Fund will succeed in enforcing them.

Futures. A futures contract is a contractual agreement to buy or sell a particular currency or financial instrument at a pre-determined price in the future. Risks related to the use of futures contracts include possible illiquidity of the futures markets, contract prices that can be highly volatile and imperfectly correlated to movements in the underlying financial instrument and potential losses in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statement of assets and liabilities. Use of long futures contracts subjects the Fund to the risk of loss up to the notional value of the futures contracts. Use of short futures contracts subjects the Fund to unlimited risk of loss.

Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit initial margin with the broker in the form of cash or securities. The amount of required margin is generally based on a percentage of the contract value; this amount is the initial margin for the trade. The margin deposit must then be maintained at the established level over the life of the contract. Futures collateral receivable/payable is included on the Statement of assets and liabilities. Futures contracts are marked-to-market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (variation margin) and unrealized gain or loss is recorded by the Fund. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.

During the year ended May 31, 2013, the Fund used futures contracts to manage duration of the portfolio. During the year ended May 31, 2013, the Fund held futures contracts with notional values ranging up to $21.0 million, as measured at each quarter end. The following table summarizes the contracts held at May 31, 2013.

Note 4 — Guarantees and indemnifications

Under the Trust’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.

Note 5 — Fees and transactions with affiliates

John Hancock Advisers, LLC (the Advisor) serves as investment adviser for the Fund. John Hancock Funds, LLC (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Advisor, serves as principal underwriter of the Fund. The Advisor and the Distributor are indirect, wholly owned subsidiaries of Manulife Financial Corporation (MFC).

Management fee. The Fund has an investment management contract with the Advisor under which the Fund pays a daily management fee to the Advisor equivalent, on an annual basis, to the sum of: (a) 0.500% of the first $500,000,000 of the Fund’s average daily net assets, (b) 0.475% of the next $500,000,000 of the Fund’s average daily net assets, (c) 0.450% of the next $500,000,000 of the Fund’s average daily net assets, (d) 0.450% of the next $500,000,000 of the Fund’s average daily net assets, (e) 0.400% of the next $500,000,000 of the Fund’s average daily net assets, and (f) 0.350% of the Fund’s average daily net assets in excess of $2,500,000,000. The Advisor has a subadvisory agreement with John Hancock Asset Management a division of Manulife Asset Management (US) LLC, an indirectly owned subsidiary of MFC and an affiliate of the Advisor. The Fund is not responsible for payment of the subadvisory fees.

The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive a portion of its management fee and/or reimburse or pay operating expenses of the Fund in order to reduce the total annual Fund operating expenses for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I, Class R2 and Class R6 shares by 0.05% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. Accordingly, these expense reductions amounted to $629,121, $21,432, $77,656, $99,940, $283 and $1,175 for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I, Class R2 and Class R6 shares, respectively, for the year ended May 31, 2013. These fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements expire on September 30, 2013, unless renewed by mutual agreement of the Fund and the Advisor based upon a determination that this is appropriate under the circumstances at the time.

The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain expenses for Class R6 shares of the Fund. This agreement excludes certain expenses such as taxes, brokerage

44  Bond Fund | Annual report 

commissions, interest expense, litigation and indemnification expenses and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. The fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements were such that these expenses would not exceed 0.57% for Class R6 shares. The fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements will continue in effect until September 30, 2013, unless renewed by mutual agreement of the Fund and the Advisor based upon a determination that this is appropriate under the circumstances at the time. For the year ended May 31, 2013, there were no reductions related to this agreement.

The investment management fees incurred for the year ended May 31, 2013 were equivalent to a net annual effective rate of 0.423% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

Accounting and legal services. Pursuant to a service agreement, the Fund reimburses the Advisor for all expenses associated with providing the administrative, financial, legal, 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 expenses are allocated to each share class based on its relative net assets at the time the expense was incurred. These accounting and legal services fees incurred for the year ended May 31, 2013 amounted to an annual rate of 0.02% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

Distribution and service plans. The Fund has a distribution agreement with the Distributor. The Fund has adopted distribution and service plans with respect to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R2 pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, to pay the Distributor for services provided as the distributor of shares of the Fund. In addition, under a service plan for Class R2, the Fund pays for certain other services. The Fund pays the following contractual rates of distribution and service fees under these arrangements, expressed as an annual percentage of average daily net assets for each class of the Fund’s shares.

CLASS	RULE 12b–1 FEE	SERVICE FEE
Class A	0.30%	—
Class B	1.00%	—
Class C	1.00%	—
Class R2	0.25%	0.25%

Sales charges. Class A shares are assessed up-front sales charges, which resulted in payments to the Distributor amounting to $5,995,598 for the year ended May 31, 2013. Of this amount, $729,248 was retained and used for printing prospectuses, advertising, sales literature and other purposes, $5,014,913 was paid as sales commissions to broker-dealers and $251,437 was paid as sales commissions to sales personnel of Signator Investors, Inc., a broker-dealer affiliate of the Advisor.

Class A, Class B and Class C shares may be subject to contingent deferred sales charges (CDSCs). Certain Class A shares that are acquired through purchases of $1 million or more and are redeemed within one year of purchase are subject to a 1.00% sales charge. Class B shares that are redeemed within six years of purchase are subject to CDSCs, at declining rates, beginning at 5.00%. Class C shares that are redeemed within one year of purchase are subject to a 1.00% CDSC. CDSCs are applied to the lesser of the current market value at the time of redemption or the original purchase cost of the shares being redeemed. Proceeds from CDSCs are used to compensate the Distributor for providing distribution-related services in connection with the sale of these shares. During the year ended May 31, 2013, CDSCs received by the Distributor amounted to $6,956, $75,056 and $32,767 for Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively.

Transfer agent fees. The Fund has a transfer agent agreement with John Hancock Signature Services, Inc. (Signature Services), an affiliate of the Advisor. The transfer agent fees paid to Signature Services are determined based on the cost to Signature Services (Signature Services Cost) of providing recordkeeping services. The Signature Services Cost includes a component of allocated

Annual report | Bond Fund  45 

John Hancock corporate overhead for providing transfer agent services to the Fund and to all other John Hancock affiliated funds. It also includes out-of-pocket expenses that are comprised of payments made to third-parties for recordkeeping services provided to their clients who invest in one or more John Hancock funds. In addition, Signature Services Cost may be reduced by certain fees that Signature Services receives in connection with retirement and small accounts. Signature Services Cost is calculated monthly and allocated, as applicable, to four categories of share classes: Institutional Share Classes, Retirement Share Classes, Municipal Bond Classes and all other Retail Share Classes. Within each of these categories, the applicable costs are allocated to the affected John Hancock affiliated funds and/or classes, based on the relative average daily net assets.

Class level expenses. Class level expenses for the year ended May 31, 2013 were:

	DISTRIBUTION AND	TRANSFER
CLASS	SERVICE FEES	AGENT FEES
Class A	$3,773,581	$2,271,936

Trustee expenses. The Fund compensates each Trustee who is not an employee of the Advisor or its affiliates. Under the John Hancock Group of Funds Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) which was terminated in November 2012, certain Trustees could have elected, for tax purposes, to defer receipt of this compensation. Any deferred amounts were invested in various John Hancock funds. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting liability are included within Other receivables and prepaid expenses and Payable to affiliates — Trustees’ fees, respectively, in the accompanying Statement of assets and liabilities. Plan assets will be liquidated in accordance with the Plan documents.

Auditor’s report

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of John Hancock Sovereign Bond Fund and Shareholders of John Hancock Bond Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of John Hancock Bond Fund (the “Fund”) at May 31, 2013, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at May 31, 2013 by correspondence with the custodian, agent banks and brokers, and the application of alternative auditing procedures where securities purchased confirmations had not been received, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Evaluation of Advisory and Subadvisory Agreements by the Board of Trustees

This section describes the evaluation by the Board of Trustees (the Board) of John Hancock Sovereign Bond Fund (the Trust) of the Advisory Agreement (the Advisory Agreement) with John Hancock Advisers, LLC (the Advisor) and the Subadvisory Agreement (the Subadvisory Agreement) with John Hancock Asset Management a division of Manulife Asset Management (US) LLC (the Subadvisor) for John Hancock Bond Fund (the Fund). The Advisory Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement are collectively referred to as the Agreements.

Approval of Advisory and Subadvisory Agreements

At in-person meetings held on May 16-17, 2013, the Board, including the Trustees who are not considered to be interested persons of the Trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act) (the Independent Trustees), reapproved for an annual period the continuation of the Advisory Agreement between the Trust and the Advisor and the Subadvisory Agreement between the Advisor and the Subadvisor with respect to the Fund.

In considering the Advisory Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement, the Board received in advance of the meeting a variety of materials relating to the Fund, the Advisor and the Subadvisor, including comparative performance, fee and expense information for peer groups of similar mutual funds prepared by an independent third-party provider of mutual fund data; performance information for relevant indexes; and, with respect to the Subadvisor, comparative performance information for comparably managed accounts; and other information provided by the Advisor and the Subadvisor regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Advisor and the Subadvisor under their respective Agreement, as well as information regarding the Advisor’s revenues and costs of providing services to the Fund and compensation paid to affiliates of the Advisor. At the meeting at which the renewal of the Advisory Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement is considered, particular focus is given to information concerning Fund performance, comparability of fees and total expenses and profitability. However, the Board notes that the evaluation process with respect to the Advisor and the Subadvisor is an ongoing one. In this regard, the Board also took into account discussions with management and information provided to the Board at prior meetings with respect to the services provided by the Advisor and the Subadvisor to the Fund, including quarterly performance reports prepared by management containing reviews of investment results, and periodic presentations from the Subadvisor with respect to the Fund. The Board noted the affiliation of the Subadvisor with the Advisor, noting any potential conflicts of interest. The Board also considered the nature, quality and extent of the services to be provided to John Hancock Fund portfolios by the Advisor’s affiliates, including distribution services.

Throughout the process, the Board asked questions of and requested additional information from management. The Board is assisted by counsel for the Trust and the Independent Trustees are also separately assisted by independent legal counsel throughout the process. The Independent Trustees also received a memorandum from their independent counsel discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreements and discussed the proposed continuation of the Agreements in private sessions with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of management were present.

Approval of Advisory Agreement

In approving the Advisory Agreement with respect to the Fund, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered a variety of factors, including those discussed below. The Board also considered other factors (including conditions and trends prevailing generally in the economy, the securities markets and the industry) and does not treat any single factor as determinative, and each Trustee may attribute different weights to different factors. The Board’s conclusions may be based in part on its consideration of the advisory and subadvisory arrangements in prior years and on the Board’s ongoing regular review of Fund performance and operations throughout the year.

50  Bond Fund | Annual report 

Nature, extent and quality of services. Among the information received by the Board from the Advisor relating to the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund, the Board reviewed information provided by the Advisor relating to its operations and personnel, descriptions of its organizational and management structure, and information regarding the Advisor’s compliance and regulatory history, including its Form ADV. The Board also noted that on a regular basis it receives and reviews information from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) regarding the Fund’s compliance policies and procedures established pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act. The Board also considered the Advisor’s risk management processes. The Board considered that the Advisor is responsible for the management of the day-to-day operations of the Fund, including, but not limited to, general supervision of and coordination of the services provided by the Subadvisor, and is also responsible for monitoring and reviewing the activities of the Subadvisor and other third-party service providers.

In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Advisor, the Trustees also took into account their knowledge of the Advisor’s management and the quality of the performance of the Advisor’s duties, through Board meetings, discussions and reports during the preceding year and through each Trustee’s experience as a Trustee of the Trust and of the other trusts in the complex.

In the course of their deliberations regarding the Advisory Agreement, the Board considered, among other things:

(a) the skills and competency with which the Advisor has in the past managed the Trust’s affairs and its subadvisory relationships, the Advisor’s oversight and monitoring of the Subadvisor’s investment performance and compliance programs, such as the Subadvisor’s compliance with fund policies and objective(s), review of brokerage matters, including with respect to trade allocation and best execution and the Advisor’s timeliness in responding to performance issues;

(b) the background, qualifications and skills of the Advisor’s personnel;

(c) the Advisor’s compliance policies and procedures and its responsiveness to regulatory changes and mutual fund industry developments;

(d) the Advisor’s administrative capabilities, including its ability to supervise the other service providers for the Fund;

(e) the financial condition of the Advisor and whether it has the financial wherewithal to provide a high level and quality of services to the Fund; and

(f) the Advisor’s reputation and experience in serving as an investment advisor to the Trust and the benefit to shareholders of investing in funds that are part of a family of funds offering a variety of investments.

The Board concluded that the Advisor may reasonably be expected to continue to provide a high quality of services under the Advisory Agreement with respect to the Fund.

Investment performance. In considering the Fund’s performance, the Board noted that it reviews at its regularly scheduled meetings information about the Fund’s performance results. In connection with the consideration of the Advisory Agreement, the Board:

(a) reviewed information prepared by management regarding the Fund’s performance;

(b) considered the comparative performance of the Fund’s benchmark;

Annual report | Bond Fund  51 

(c) considered the performance of comparable funds, if any, as included in the report prepared by an independent third-party provider of mutual fund data. Such report included the Fund’s ranking within a smaller group of peer funds and the Fund’s ranking within broader groups of funds; and

(d) took into account the Advisor’s analysis of the Fund’s performance and its plans and recommendations regarding the Trust’s subadvisory arrangements generally.

The Board noted that the Fund outperformed its benchmark index and peer group average for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended December 31, 2012.

The Board concluded that the performance of the Fund has generally been in line with or outperformed the historical performance of comparable funds and the Fund’s benchmark.

Fees and expenses. The Board reviewed comparative information prepared by an independent third-party provider of mutual fund data including, among other data, the Fund’s contractual and actual advisory fees and total expenses as compared to similarly situated investment companies deemed to be comparable to the Fund. The Board considered the Fund’s ranking within a smaller group of peer funds chosen by the independent third-party provider, as well as the Fund’s ranking within broader groups of funds. In comparing the Fund’s actual and contractual management fee to that of comparable funds, the Board noted that such fee includes both advisory and administrative costs.

The Board noted that net management fees for this Fund are equal to the peer group median and that total expenses for this Fund are higher than the peer group median.

The Board also took into account management’s discussion with respect to the advisory/subadvisory fee structure, including the amount of the advisory fee retained by the Advisor after payment of the subadvisory fee. The Board also took into account that management had agreed to implement an overall fee waiver across a number of funds in the complex, including the Fund, which is discussed further below. The Board also noted management’s discussion of the Fund’s expenses and that the Fund has a contractual fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement which reduces certain expenses of the Fund and that such waiver is not reflected in the comparative fee information. The Board reviewed information provided by the Advisor concerning investment advisory fees charged by the Advisor or one of its advisory affiliates to other clients (including other funds in the complex) having similar investment mandates, if any. The Board considered any differences between the Advisor’s and Subadvisor’s services to the Fund and the services they provide to other comparable clients or funds. The Board concluded that the advisory fee paid with respect to the Fund is reasonable.

Profitability/Indirect benefits. In considering the costs of the services to be provided and the profits to be realized by the Advisor and its affiliates (including the Subadvisor) from the Advisor’s relationship with the Trust, the Board:

(a) reviewed financial information of the Advisor;

(b) reviewed and considered an analysis presented by the Advisor regarding the net profitability to the Advisor and its affiliates of the Fund;

(c) received and reviewed profitability information with respect to the John Hancock fund complex as a whole;

(d) received information with respect to the Advisor’s allocation methodologies used in preparing the profitability data;

(e) considered that the Advisor also provides administrative services to the Fund on a cost basis pursuant to an administrative services agreement;

52  Bond Fund | Annual report 

(f) noted that the Fund’s Subadvisor is an affiliate of the Advisor;

(g) noted that affiliates of the Advisor provide transfer agency services and distribution services to the Fund, and that the Trust’s distributor also receives Rule 12b-1 payments to support distribution of the Fund;

(h) noted that the Advisor also derives reputational and other indirect benefits from providing advisory services to the Fund;

(i) noted that the subadvisory fees for the Fund are paid by the Advisor; and

(j) considered that the Advisor should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits in exchange for the level of services it provides to the Fund and the entrepreneurial risk that it assumes as Advisor.

Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the level of profitability, if any, of the Advisor and its affiliates (including the Subadvisor) from their relationship with the Fund was reasonable and not excessive.

Economies of scale. In considering the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of Fund shareholders, the Board:

(a) with respect to each fund in the John Hancock fund complex, including the Fund (except those listed below), considered that the Advisor has agreed, effective June 1, 2013, to waive its management fee for the Fund and each of the open-end funds of John Hancock Funds II, John Hancock Funds III, each other John Hancock Fund (except those listed below) (the Participating Portfolios) or otherwise reimburse the expenses of the Participating Portfolios as follows (the Reimbursement): The Reimbursement shall equal, on an annualized basis, 0.01% of that portion of the aggregate net assets of all the Participating Portfolios that exceeds $75 billion but is less than or equal to $125 billion, 0.0125% of that portion of the aggregate net assets of all the Participating Portfolios that exceeds $125 billion but is less than or equal to $150 billion and 0.015% of that portion of the aggregate net assets of all the Participating Portfolios that exceeds $150 billion. (The John Hancock Funds that are not Participating Portfolios as of the date of this annual report are each of the fund of funds, money market funds, index funds and closed-end funds);

(b) reviewed the Trust’s advisory fee structure and the incorporation therein of any subadvisory fee breakpoints in the advisory fees charged and concluded that (i) the Fund’s fee structure contains breakpoints at the subadvisory fee level and that such breakpoints are reflected as breakpoints in the advisory fees for the Fund and (ii) although economies of scale cannot be measured with precision, these arrangements permit shareholders of the Fund to benefit from economies of scale if the Fund grows. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s advisory fee structure; and

(c) the Board also considered the effect of the Fund’s growth in size on its performance and fees. The Board also noted that if the Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund may realize other economies of scale.

Approval of Subadvisory Agreement

In making its determination with respect to approval of the Subadvisory Agreement, the Board reviewed:

(1) information relating to the Subadvisor’s business, including current subadvisory services to the Trust (and other funds in the John Hancock family of funds);

Annual report | Bond Fund  53 

(2) the historical and current performance of the Fund and comparative performance information relating to the Fund’s benchmark and comparable funds; and

(3) the subadvisory fee for the Fund, including any breakpoints, and comparative fee information, where available, prepared by an independent third-party provider of mutual fund data.

Nature, extent and quality of services. With respect to the services provided by the Subadvisor, the Board received information provided to the Board by the Subadvisor, including the Subadvisor’s Form ADV, as well as took into account information presented throughout the past year. The Board considered the Subadvisor’s current level of staffing and its overall resources, as well as received information relating to the Subadvisor’s compensation program. The Board reviewed the Subadvisor’s history and investment experience, as well as information regarding the qualifications, background and responsibilities of the Subadvisor’s investment and compliance personnel who provide services to the Fund. The Board also considered, among other things, the Subadvisor’s compliance program and any disciplinary history. The Board also considered the Subadvisor’s risk assessment and monitoring process. The Board reviewed the Subadvisor’s regulatory history, including whether it was currently 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, including regarding investment processes and organizational and staffing matters. The Board also noted that the 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 by them 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 include the development and maintenance of an investment program for the Fund, which is consistent with the Fund’s investment objectives, 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 received 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 Agreement are paid by the Advisor and not the Fund.

The Board also received information and took into account any other potential conflicts of interests the Advisor might have in connection with the Subadvisory Agreement.

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 portfolios of the Trust and reputational benefits.

Subadvisory fees. The Board considered that the Fund pays an advisory fee to the Advisor and that, in turn, the Advisor pays a subadvisory fee to the Subadvisor. The Board also took into account the subadvisory fees paid by the Advisor to fees charged by the Fund’s Subadvisor to manage other subadvised portfolios and portfolios not subject to regulation under the 1940 Act, as applicable.

Subadvisor performance. As noted above, the Board considered the Fund’s performance as compared to the Fund’s peer group and benchmark and noted that the Board reviews information about the Fund’s performance results at its regularly scheduled meetings. The Board noted the Advisor’s expertise and resources in monitoring the performance, investment style and risk-adjusted

54  Bond Fund | Annual report 

performance of the Subadvisor. The Board was mindful of the Advisor’s focus on the Subadvisor’s performance. The Board also noted the Subadvisor’s long-term performance record for similar accounts, as applicable.

The Board’s decision to approve the Subadvisory Agreement was based on a number of determinations, including the following:

(1) The Subadvisor has extensive experience and demonstrated skills as a manager;

(2) The performance of the Fund generally has been in line with or outperformed the historical performance of comparable funds and the Fund’s benchmark and the Fund’s overall performance is satisfactory;

(3) The subadvisory fees are reasonable in relation to the level and quality of services being provided; and

(4) Subadvisory fee breakpoints are reflected as breakpoints in the advisory fees for the Fund in order to permit shareholders to benefit from economies of scale if the Fund grows.

* * * 

Based on their evaluation of all factors that they deemed to be material, including those factors described above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that renewal of the Advisory Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement would be in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, and the Independent Trustees voting separately, approved the Advisory Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement for an additional one-year period.

(e)(1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures:

The trust’s Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm (the “Auditor”) relating to the operations or financial reporting of the funds. Prior to the commencement of any audit or non-audit services to a fund, the Audit Committee reviews the services to determine whether they are appropriate and permissible under applicable law.

The trust’s Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures to, among other purposes, provide a framework for the Committee’s consideration of audit-related and non-audit services by the Auditor. The policies and procedures require that any audit-related and non-audit service provided by the Auditor and any non-audit service provided by the Auditor to a fund service provider that relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of a fund are subject to approval by the Audit Committee before such service is provided. Audit-related services provided by the Auditor that are expected to exceed $25,000 per year/per fund are subject to specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. Tax services provided by the Auditor that are expected to exceed $30,000 per year/per fund are subject to specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.

All audit services, as well as the audit-related and non-audit services that are expected to exceed the amounts stated above, must be approved in advance of provision of the service by formal resolution of the Audit Committee. At the regularly scheduled Audit Committee meetings, the Committee reviews a report summarizing the services, including fees, provided by the Auditor.

(e)(2) Services approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X:

Audit-Related Fees, Tax Fees and All Other Fees:

There were no amounts that were approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to the de minimis exception under Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

(f) According to the registrant’s principal accountant for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2013, the percentage of hours spent on the audit of the registrant's financial statements for the most recent fiscal year that were attributed to work performed by persons who were not full-time, permanent employees of principal accountant was less than 50%.

(g) The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the registrant’s principal accountant for non-audit services rendered to the registrant and rendered to the registrant's control affiliates for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2013 and 2012 amounted to the following:

Trust		May 31, 2013		May 31, 2012
John Hancock Sovereign Bond Fund	$	2,841,066	$	3,334,303

(h) The audit committee of the registrant has considered the non-audit services provided by the registrant’s principal accountant to the control affiliates and has determined that the services that were not pre-approved are compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.
