FORM OF APPENDIX B
I. NON-MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS
Each non-money market portfolio of the Trust shall pay JSC for its transfer
agency services a fee, calculated and payable for each day that this Agreement
is in effect, of 1/365 of 0.16% of the daily closing net asset value of such
portfolio, plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with
JSC's services as transfer agent. In addition, each of the non-money market
portfolios listed below shall pay a monthly fee at the annual rate of $4.00 per
open shareholder account per year:
Janus Balanced Fund
Janus Enterprise Fund
Janus Equity Income Fund
Janus Federal Tax-Exempt Fund
Janus Flexible Income Fund
Janus Fund 2
Janus Growth and Income Fund
Janus High-Yield Fund
Janus Mercury Fund
Janus Orion Fund
Janus Short-Term Bond Fund

All such fees shall be subject to reduction as set forth in section 5.c of this
Agreement. If an account is open on any day of a month, the per account fee (if
applicable) shall be payable for that month.
II. MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS
Notwithstanding the above, however, JSC agrees that it shall not look to the
Funds or the Trust for compensation for its services provided under this
Agreement to Janus Money Market Fund, Janus Government Money Market Fund or
Janus Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund (collectively, the "Money Funds"). JSC shall
be compensated for its services to the Money Funds entirely by Janus Capital
Corporation, the administrator to the Money Funds, pursuant to an Administration
Agreement between Janus Capital Corporation and each of the Money Funds.
