Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation

under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On June 15, 2026, Jackson Financial Inc. (the “Company”)

issued $750 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.150% Senior Notes due 2037 (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes

will mature on January 15, 2037. Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at the rate of 6.150% per annum and is payable semi-annually

on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing July 15, 2026. Prior to October 15, 2036 (the “Par Call Date”),

the Senior Notes will be redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the greater of

(1) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the

redemption date (assuming the Senior Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of

twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined in the Supplemental Indenture referred to below) plus 25 basis points, less (b) interest

accrued and unpaid to the date of redemption, and (2) 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes to be redeemed plus, in either

case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. On or after the Par Call Date, the Senior Notes will be redeemable at

the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes to be

redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. The Senior Notes are unsecured.

The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to the Company’s Indenture

dated as of November 23, 2021 (the “Indenture”), with The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, as

supplemented by a supplemental indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”) providing for the terms of the Senior Notes. The Indenture

contains covenants that restrict the Company’s ability, with specified exceptions, to (i) incur debt secured by any capital

stock of Jackson National Life Insurance Company (“JNLIC”), or any entity (other than the Company) having direct or indirect

control of JNLIC, unless the Senior Notes are secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such secured debt so long as such debt is

so secured; (ii) sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of capital stock of JNLIC, or any entity (other than the Company) having

direct or indirect control of JNLIC; and (iii) merge with or into or consolidate with another entity or convey, lease or otherwise

transfer all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to any other entity. Events of default include failure to pay interest

or principal, cross defaults to material indebtedness, and insolvency and bankruptcy events.

The net proceeds of the Senior Notes are expected to be used for general

corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, (i) repaying or redeeming at or before maturity, the Company’s $400,000,000

5.170% Senior Notes due June 8, 2027 and/or JNLIC’s $250,000,000 8.15% surplus notes due March 15, 2027.

The Senior Notes were sold pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement dated

June 8, 2026 with Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., BNP Paribas Securities Corp., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, and SC America Securities,

LLC, as representatives of several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”). A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is

filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this report. The Senior Notes were sold pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3

(File No. 333-284340).

Certain Underwriters or their affiliates have engaged in, and may in

the future engage in, other commercial and investment banking and commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with the Company

and its affiliates. The Underwriters and their affiliates have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions

for these transactions.

A copy of the Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture, which sets

forth the terms of the Senior Notes, are attached to this report as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, and are incorporated in this report

by reference.

In connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes, Willkie Farr &

Gallagher LLP provided the Company with the legal opinion letter attached to this report as Exhibit 5.1.

SAFE HARBOR

The information in this report contains forward-looking statements

about future events and circumstances and their effects upon revenues, expenses and business opportunities. Generally speaking, any statement

in this report not based upon historical fact is a forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by the

“estimate,” “forecast,” “intend,” “look,” “may,” “expect,” “believe,”

“anticipate,” “plan,” “predict,” “remain,” “future,” “confident”

and “commit” or similar expressions. In particular, statements regarding plans, strategies, prospects, targets and expectations

regarding the business and industry are forward-looking statements. They reflect expectations, are not guarantees of performance and speak

only as of the dates the statements are made. We caution investors that these forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown

risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, expressed or implied. Other factors that

could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include those reflected in Part I, Item

1A. Risk Factors and Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Jackson Financial Inc., a corporation organized

under the laws of Delaware (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell to the several underwriters named in Schedule II

hereto (the “Underwriters”), for whom you are acting as representatives (the “Representatives”), $750,000,000

principal amount of its 6.150% Senior Notes due 2037 (the “Securities”). The Securities are to be issued under an indenture,

dated as of November 23, 2021 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company,

N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Eighth Supplemental Indenture, to be dated as of the Closing Date

(as defined below) (the “Eighth Supplemental Indenture”; and the Base Indenture, as supplemented and amended by the Eighth

Supplemental Indenture, being referred to herein as the “Indenture”). To the extent there are no additional parties listed

on Schedule II other than you, the term Representatives as used herein shall mean you as the Underwriters, and the terms shall be

construed as equivalents. The terms Representatives and Underwriters shall mean either the singular or plural as the context requires.

The use of the neuter in this Agreement shall include the feminine and masculine wherever appropriate.

The Company has prepared and

filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) an automatic shelf registration statement as defined

in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively,

the “Securities Act”), on Form S-3 (File No. 333-284340), including a base prospectus dated January 17, 2025,

relating to the Securities and other securities of the Company (the “Basic Prospectus”). The registration statement as amended

to the date of this Agreement, including the information (if any) deemed to be part of the registration statement pursuant to Rule 430B

under the Securities Act, is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement.” The Basic Prospectus, as supplemented

by the prospectus supplement relating to the offering of the Securities, in the form first used to confirm sales of Securities (or in

the form first made available to the Underwriters by the Company to meet requests of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Securities

Act), is hereinafter referred to as the “Prospectus.” The Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the preliminary prospectus

supplement, dated June 8, 2026, relating to the offering of the Securities, in the form filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under

the Securities Act is hereinafter referred to as the “Preliminary Prospectus.”

For purposes of this Agreement, “free writing

prospectus” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, “Disclosure Package” means the Preliminary

Prospectus together with any free writing prospectus set forth in Schedule III hereto and any writings in addition to the Preliminary

Prospectus that the parties expressly agree in writing to treat as part of the Disclosure Package (“Issuer Written Information”),

and “road show” means any road show as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act. As used herein, the terms

“Registration Statement,” “Basic Prospectus,” “Preliminary Prospectus,” “Disclosure Package”

and “Prospectus” shall include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3

under the Securities Act, as of the effective date of the Registration Statement or the date of such Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus,

as the case may be. The terms “supplement,” “amendment,” and “amend” as used herein with respect

to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Disclosure Package, any preliminary prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus

shall include all documents subsequently filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as

amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the “Exchange Act”), that are deemed

to be incorporated by reference therein. “Execution Time” means the date and time that this Agreement is executed and delivered

by the parties hereto.

1.            Representations

and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, each Underwriter as set forth below in this Section 1.

to the use of the Registration Statement, including as an automatic shelf registration statement.

2

(b)            (i) The

Registration Statement, when it became effective and as of the effective date of any amendment thereto, did not and will not contain

therein not misleading, and complied and will comply in all material respects with the Securities Act, (ii) the Prospectus, as of

the date of the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto and as of the Closing Date, will not contain any untrue statement

of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances

fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,

and will comply in all material respects with the Securities Act, (iv) any preliminary prospectus supplement filed as part of the

Registration Statement as originally filed or as part of any amendment thereto, or filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities

Act, complied when so filed in all material respects with the Securities Act, and (v) each road show, if any, when considered together

representations and warranties set forth in this paragraph do not apply to statements or omissions in the Registration Statement, the

Disclosure Package or the Prospectus based upon and in conformity with information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Company

in writing by such Underwriter through you expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished

by any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof. No statement of material fact included

(c)            Other

authorize, approve or refer to any Issuer Written Information that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the

Securities, other than (i) any document not constituting a prospectus pursuant to Section 2(a)(10)(a) of the Securities

Act or Rule 134 under the Securities Act, (ii) the documents set forth in Schedule III hereto, (iii) each road show

in accordance with the Securities Act (to the extent required thereby) and does not conflict with the information contained in the Registration

Statement or the Disclosure Package, and, when taken together with the Preliminary Prospectus accompanying, or delivered prior to delivery

of, such Issuer Written Information, did not, and as of the Closing Date, will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or

omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were

made, not misleading, provided that the Company makes no representation and warranty with respect to any statements or omissions

made in each such Issuer Written Information based upon and in conformity with information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the

Company in writing by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in such Issuer Written Information, it being understood

and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

3

documents filed or are to be filed pursuant to the Exchange Act and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus

and the Disclosure Package, when they were filed with the Commission conformed or will conform in all material respects to the requirements

of the Exchange Act, and none of such documents contained or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or will

Act.

(f)             The

Company is not, and after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Securities and the application of the proceeds thereof as described

in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus will not be, required to register as an “investment company” as such term is

defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(g)            The

Company has not taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that could reasonably be expected to cause or result in any

stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Securities.

(h)            Each

of the Company and each Significant Subsidiary (as defined below) has been (i) duly incorporated or organized, as applicable, and

is validly existing and in good standing (to the extent that such concept is applicable) under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation

or organization, with power and authority (corporate and other) to own its properties and conduct its business as described in the Disclosure

Package and the Prospectus, and (ii) duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing under the laws of each other jurisdiction

in which it owns or leases properties or conducts any business that requires such qualification, except to the extent that the failure

to be so qualified, be in good standing or have such power or authority would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse change

or effect, or any development involving a prospective material adverse change or effect, in or affecting (a) the business, properties,

general affairs, management, financial position, stockholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries,

taken as a whole or (b) the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement, including the issuance and sale

of the Securities (a “Material Adverse Effect”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Significant Subsidiary” means

the subsidiaries listed on Annex A hereto.

4

(i)             All

(l)             The

holders of outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company are not entitled to preemptive or other rights to subscribe for the Securities;

and, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, no options, warrants or other rights to purchase,

agreements or other obligations to issue, or rights to convert any obligations into or exchange any securities for, shares of capital

stock of or ownership interests in the Company are outstanding.

(m)           Each

subsidiary of the Company that is required to be organized and licensed as an insurance company (each, an “Insurance Subsidiary”

and, collectively, the “Insurance Subsidiaries”) is duly organized and licensed as an insurance company in the jurisdiction

in which it is chartered or organized and is duly licensed or authorized as an insurer in each other jurisdiction where it is required

to be so licensed or authorized to conduct its business as described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, except in each case

where the failure to be so licensed or authorized in each other jurisdiction would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse

Effect; each of the Company and each Insurance Subsidiary has made all required filings under applicable insurance company statutes and

has filed all notices, reports, documents or other information required to be filed thereunder, except in each case where the failure

to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; each of the Company and each Insurance Subsidiary has all

other necessary authorizations, approvals, orders, consents, licenses, certificates, permits, registrations and qualifications, of and

and except as set forth or contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus; none of the Company or any Insurance Subsidiary

has received any notification from any insurance regulatory authority to the effect that any additional authorization, approval, order,

consent, license, certificate, permit, registration or qualification from any insurance regulatory authority is needed to be obtained

by any of the Company or any Insurance Subsidiary other than in any case where the failure to acquire such additional authorization,

approval, order, consent, license, certificate, permit, registration or qualification, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably

be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; except as set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, no subsidiary of the

Company is currently prohibited, directly or indirectly, under any law, rule, regulation, agreement or other instrument to which it is

a party or is subject, from paying any dividends to the Company, from making any other distribution on such subsidiary’s capital

stock or similar ownership interest, from repaying to the Company any loans or advances to such subsidiary from the Company or from transferring

any of such subsidiary’s properties or assets to the Company or any other subsidiary of the Company except where such prohibition

would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and except as set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus,

no insurance regulatory authority having jurisdiction over any Insurance Subsidiary has issued any order or decree impairing, restricting

or prohibiting (i) the payment of dividends by any Insurance Subsidiary to its parent or the payment of dividends by such parent

to the Company (directly or indirectly through one or more intermediate holding companies directly or indirectly wholly owned by the

Company) or (ii) the continuation of the business of the Company or any of the Insurance Subsidiaries in all material respects as

presently conducted.

(n)            The

Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company. The Indenture has been duly authorized by the Company, has

been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery thereof

by the Trustee, when executed and delivered by the Company, will constitute a legal, valid, binding instrument enforceable against the

Company in accordance with its terms (subject, as to the enforcement of remedies, to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency,

moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally from time to time in effect and to general principles of equity);

and the Securities have been duly authorized, and, when executed and authenticated in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture

and delivered to and paid for by the Underwriters, will have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and will constitute the

legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms and entitled to the

benefits of the Indenture (subject, as to the enforcement of remedies, to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium

or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally from time to time in effect and to general principles of equity).

(p)            The

execution and delivery by the Company of, and the performance by the Company of its obligations under, this Agreement, the Indenture

and the Securities, including the issuance and sale of the Securities, or the consummation of any other of the transactions herein or

and warranties which are qualified as to materiality, with the same effect as if made on the Closing Date, and (ii) in the case

of representations and warranties that are not so qualified, in all material respects, and that the Company shall have performed all

of its obligations hereunder to be performed at or prior to the Closing Date; and

(ii)           since

the date of the most recent financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (exclusive

of any amendment or supplement thereto), there has been no material adverse change or effect, or any development involving a prospective

material adverse change or effect, in or affecting the business, properties, general affairs, management, financial position, stockholders’

equity or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, except as set forth in or contemplated in the

Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto).

(d)            At

the Execution Time and at the Closing Date, the Company shall have requested and caused KPMG LLP to furnish to the Representatives letters,

dated respectively as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives

and confirming that they are independent accountants within the meaning of the Exchange Act, containing statements and information of

the type ordinarily included in accountants’ “comfort letters” to Underwriters with respect to the financial statements

and certain financial information contained or incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, provided

that the letter delivered on the Closing Date shall use a “cut-off date” not earlier than three Business Days before the

Closing Date.

16

All references in this Section 6(d) to

the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus include any amendment or supplement thereto at the date of the applicable letter.

(e)            The

Representatives shall have received, at the Execution Time and the Closing Date, a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of the

Company dated respectively as of the Execution Time or the Closing Date, as applicable, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives

and in substantially the form attached hereto as Annex C, stating, as of such date, the conclusions and findings of such individual,

in his or her capacity as Chief Financial Officer of the Company, with respect to the financial information and such other matters as

reasonably requested by the Representatives.

(f)            The

Representatives shall have received, on and as of the Closing Date, reasonably satisfactory evidence of the good standing of the Company

and its Significant Subsidiaries in their respective jurisdictions of organization (to the extent that such concept is applicable), in

each case in writing or any standard form of telecommunication, from the appropriate governmental authorities of such jurisdictions,

provided that the evidence of good standing for those entities except for the Company may be as of any date reasonably satisfactory

to the Representatives, through and including the Closing Date.

(g)            Subsequent

to the Execution Time or, if earlier, the dates as of which information is given in the Disclosure Package (exclusive of any amendment

or supplement thereto) and the Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), there shall not have been any change, or

any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the condition (financial or otherwise), prospects, earnings, business

or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of

business, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement

thereto), the effect of which is, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable

to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (exclusive of

any amendment or supplement thereto).

(h)            The

Securities shall be eligible for clearance and settlement through The Depository Trust Company.

(i)             Subsequent

to the Execution Time, there shall not have been any decrease in the rating of any of the debt securities of the Company or any of its

subsidiaries by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (as defined for purposes of Rule 3(a)(62)

under the Exchange Act) or any notice given of any intended or potential decrease in any such rating or of a possible change in any such

rating that does not indicate the direction of the possible change.

(j)            Prior

to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to the Representatives such further information, certificates and documents as

the Representatives may reasonably request.

7.        Reimbursement

of Expenses. If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the

Underwriters set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 10

hereof or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any

provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters severally

through the Representatives on demand for all expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been

incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities.

17

8.        Indemnification

and Contribution. (a)  The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees

and agents of each Underwriter, each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the

Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each affiliate of each Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under

the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or

other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) that arise out of, or are

based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any

amendment thereof or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary

in order to make the statements therein, not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material

fact contained in the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any preliminary prospectus, the Disclosure Package, any Issuer

Written Information, any road show, or any other written information used by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the offer

and sale of the Securities, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein

a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not

misleading, in each case except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon any such untrue

statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon and in conformity with information relating to any Underwriter

furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein, it being understood and

agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

(b)            Each

Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the directors and officers of the Company

and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20

of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or

other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) that arise out of or are based

upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any

Issuer Written Information, any road show, or any other written information used by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the

offer or sale of the Securities, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged

omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but

only with reference to information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through the Representatives

expressly for use in the Registration Statement, Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any

Issuer Written Information, any road show, or any other written information used by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the

offer or sale of the Securities, or in any amendment or supplement thereto; it being understood and agreed that the only such information

furnished by any Underwriter consists of the following information in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus furnished on behalf

of each Underwriter: the statements set forth in the third sentence of the eighth paragraph under the caption “Underwriting”

and the first sentence of the tenth paragraph under the caption “Underwriting.”

18

(c)            In

case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity

may be sought pursuant to Section 8(a) or 8(b), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the

person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request

of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and

any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to

such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses

of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall

have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded

parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be

inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in

respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction,

be liable for (A) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Underwriters and

all persons, if any, who control any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20

of the Exchange Act or who are affiliates of any Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act and (B) the

fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Company, its directors, its officers and

each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either such Section, and that all such fees and expenses shall be

reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Underwriters and such control persons and affiliates of

any Underwriters, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Representatives. In the case of any such separate firm for the Company,

and such directors, officers and control persons of the Company, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Company. The indemnifying

party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably

withheld, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify

the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without

the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which

any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless

such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter

of such proceeding.

19

(d)            To

the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or 8(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient

in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu

of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result

of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received

by the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and the indemnified party or parties, on the other hand, from the offering of

the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 8(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such

proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 8(d)(i) above but also the relative

fault of the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and of the indemnified party or parties, on the other hand, in connection

with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable

considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection

with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of

the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the

Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities.

The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among

other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material

fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access

to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute

pursuant to this Section 8 are several in proportion to the respective number of Securities they have purchased hereunder, and not

joint.

(e)            The

Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were determined

by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation

that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 8(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified

party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, subject

to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating

or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute

any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities purchased and distributed by it were offered exceeds

the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement

or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the

Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies

provided for in this Section 8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to

any indemnified party at law or in equity.

20

(f)            The

indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 8 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the

Company contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this

Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, any person controlling any Underwriter or any affiliate

of any Underwriter, or the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and

payment for any of the Securities.

9.        Default

by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased

by any such Underwriter hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations

under this Agreement, the Representatives may in their discretion arrange for the Representatives or another party or other parties to

purchase such Securities on the terms contained herein. If within thirty-six hours after such default by any Underwriter, the Representatives

do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of thirty-six hours within

which to procure another party or other parties reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives to purchase such Securities on such terms.

If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities described in the preceding two sentences, the aggregate

principal amount of Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of

the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth in Schedule II hereto, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated

severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their names

in Schedule II hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the non-defaulting

Underwriters) the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however,

that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed

to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth in Schedule II hereto after giving effect

to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities described in the preceding two sentences, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall

have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Securities, and if such non-defaulting

Underwriters do not purchase all the Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any non-defaulting Underwriter or

the Company. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for

such period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Prospectus

or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter

of its liability, if any, to the Company or any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder. The term

“Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall include any person substituted under this Section 9 with like effect (unless

the context otherwise requires) as if such person had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Securities.

10.      Termination.

This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company prior

to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such time (i) trading in securities generally on the New

York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such exchange; (ii) trading

of any securities of the Company shall have been suspended on any national exchange; (iii) a banking moratorium shall have been

declared either by U.S. federal, Delaware or New York State authorities; (iv) there shall have occurred a material disruption in

commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services; or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of

hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial

markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or

delivery of the Securities as contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto).

21

11.      Representations

and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company

or its officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless

of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters or the Company or any of the indemnified persons referred to in Section 8

hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall survive the

termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

13.      Successors.

This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the indemnified

persons referred to in Section 8 hereof and their respective successors, and, except as expressly set forth in Section 5(k) hereof,

no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder.

14.      Integration.

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company and the Underwriters,

or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

15.      Applicable

Law. This Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed

in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

16.      Waiver

ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

22

17.      No

Fiduciary Duty. The Company hereby acknowledges that (a) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement

is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters and any affiliate through

which it may be acting, on the other, (b) the Underwriters are acting as principal and not as an agent or fiduciary of the Company

and (c) the Company’s engagement of the Underwriters in connection with the offering and the process leading up to the offering

is as independent contractors and not in any other capacity. Furthermore, the Company agrees that it is solely responsible for making

its own judgments in connection with the offering (irrespective of whether any of the Underwriters has advised or is currently advising

the Company on related or other matters). The Company agrees that they will not claim that the Underwriters have rendered advisory services

of any nature or respect, or owe an agency, fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, in connection with such transaction or the process

leading thereto.

18.      Waiver

of Tax Confidentiality. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, purchasers of the Securities (and each employee, representative

or other agent of a purchaser) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax

structure of any transaction contemplated herein and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided

to the purchasers of the Securities relating to such U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure, other than any information for which

nondisclosure is reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable securities laws.

19.      Recognition

of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes. (a) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a

proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation

in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution

Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United

States.

(b) In the event that any Underwriter that

is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime,

Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent

than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the

United States or a state of the United States.

As used in this Section 19, “BHC Act

Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C.

defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b), (ii) a “covered bank” as that term

is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b) or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that

Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder

and (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement or any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed

*Under Rule 15c6-1 under

the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day

to the business day before delivery thereafter will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+5, to

specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement and should consult their own advisor.

EIGHTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, dated as of June 15,

2026 (this “Eighth Supplemental Indenture”), between Jackson Financial Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),

and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., not in its individual capacity but solely in its capacity as trustee hereunder (together

with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Trustee”), supplementing the Indenture, dated as of November 23,

2021 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company executed and delivered the

Base Indenture to the Trustee to provide for the future issuance of the Company’s senior debt securities (the “Securities”),

to be issued from time to time in one or more series as might be determined by the Company under the Base Indenture;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Base Indenture

and this Eighth Supplemental Indenture (together, the “Indenture”), the Company has duly authorized the creation and

issuance of its 6.150% Senior Notes due 2037 (the “Notes”) in an initial aggregate principal amount of $750,000,000,

the form and substance of such Notes, and the terms, provisions and conditions thereof to be set forth herein as provided in the Indenture;

WHEREAS, the Company has requested that the Trustee,

in respect to the Notes, execute and deliver this Eighth Supplemental Indenture in such capacity; and

WHEREAS, all requirements necessary to make this

Eighth Supplemental Indenture a valid instrument in accordance with its terms and to make the Notes, when executed by the Company and

authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent, the valid obligations of the Company, have been done and performed,

and the execution and delivery of this Eighth Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized in all respects;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the purchase

and acceptance of the Notes by the holders thereof, and for the purpose of setting forth, as provided in the Indenture, the form and

substance of the Notes, and the terms, provisions and conditions thereof, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

term defined anywhere in this Eighth Supplemental Indenture has the same meaning throughout;

(d)            the

term that is defined in the Base Indenture insofar as the use or effect of such term in the Base Indenture, as previously defined, is

concerned;

(e)            the

singular includes the plural and vice versa;

(f)            headings

SECTION 1.02         Establishment.

(a)            There

is hereby established a new series of Securities to be issued under the Indenture, to be designated as the Company’s “6.150%

Senior Notes due 2037”.

(b)            There

are to be authenticated and delivered the Notes, in an initial aggregate principal amount of $750,000,000. No further Notes shall be

authenticated and delivered, except as provided by Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.07, 2.11, 3.03 or 9.04 of the Base Indenture; provided, however,

that the aggregate principal amount of the Notes may be increased in the future with no limit, without notice to or the consent of the

holders of the Notes, on the same terms and with the same CUSIP and ISIN numbers as the Notes, except for any difference, if applicable,

in the issue price, issue date, the first Interest Payment Date and the initial interest accrual date; provided that no Event of Default

with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing. The Notes shall be issued in fully registered form.

2

(c)            The

Notes shall be issued in the form of one or more Global Securities, registered in the name of the Depositary (as defined below) or its

nominee. Each Note and the Trustee’s or Authenticating Agent’s Certificate of Authentication thereof, shall be in substantially

the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto. The depositary with respect to the Notes shall be The Depository Trust Company (the “Depositary”).

(d)            Any

additional Notes authenticated and delivered pursuant to Section 1.02(b) shall be governed by this Eighth Supplemental Indenture

and shall rank equal in right of payment with the Notes issued on the date of this Eighth Supplemental Indenture and, together with the

Notes, shall be treated as a single series of Notes for all purposes.

(e)            Each

Note shall be dated the date of authentication thereof and shall bear interest from the Original Issue Date or from the most recent Interest

Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for to, but excluding, the Stated Maturity or any earlier Redemption Date.

SECTION 1.03         Payment

of Principal and Interest.

(a)            The

principal of the Notes shall be due at the Stated Maturity. The unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall bear interest at the rate

of 6.150% per year until paid or duly provided for. Interest shall be paid semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing

on July 15, 2026, to the Person in whose name the Notes are registered on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date;

provided that interest payable at the Stated Maturity or on a Redemption Date (in each case, whether or not an Interest Payment Date)

will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable. Any such interest that is not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith

cease to be payable to the holders of Notes on such Regular Record Date and may be paid as provided in Section 2.03 of the Base

Indenture.

(b)            Payments

of interest on the Notes will include interest accrued to but excluding the respective Interest Payment Dates. Interest payments for

the Notes shall be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

(c)            If

any date on which interest is payable on the Notes is not a Business Day, then payment of the interest payable on such date will be made

on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), except that,

if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in

each case with the same force and effect as if made on the date the payment was originally payable.

(d)            The

Trustee is hereby designated as Security Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes and all payments of the principal of, and premium,

if any, and interest due on the Notes at the Stated Maturity or upon redemption will be made upon surrender of the Notes at the Corporate

Trust Office of the Trustee in New York.

(e)            The

principal of, and premium, if any, and interest due on the Notes shall be paid in such coin or currency of the United States of America

as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments of interest (including interest on any Interest

Payment Date) will be made, subject to such surrender where applicable and subject, in the case of a Global Security, to the Trustee’s

or Paying Agent’s arrangements with the Depositary, at the option of the Company, (i) by check mailed to the address of the

Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register, or (ii) by wire transfer at such place and to such

account at a banking institution in the United States of America as may be designated in writing to the Trustee and Paying Agent at least

15 days prior to the date for payment by the Person entitled thereto.

SECTION 1.04         Global

Securities.

(a)            Except

under the limited circumstances described below, Notes represented by Global Securities will not be exchangeable for, and will not otherwise

be issuable as, Notes in definitive form. The Global Securities described above may not be transferred except by the Depositary to a

nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor

Depositary or a nominee of the successor Depositary.

(b)            Except

as otherwise provided in this Eighth Supplemental Indenture, owners of beneficial interests in such Global Securities will not be considered

the holders thereof for any purpose under the Indenture, and no Global Security representing a Note shall be exchangeable, except for

another Global Security of like denomination and to be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee or to a successor Depositary

or its nominee. The rights of holders of such Global Securities shall be exercised only through the Depositary.

(c)            A

Global Security shall be exchangeable in whole or, from time to time, in part for Notes in definitive registered form only as provided

in the Indenture. If (i) at any time the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary

for the Notes or if at any time the Depositary shall no longer be registered or in good standing as a “clearing agency”

registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or other applicable statute

or regulation, at such time as the Depositary is required to be so registered and the Depositary so notifies the Company and, in each

case, the Company does not appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such

condition, as the case may be or (ii) subject to the procedures of the Depositary, the Company in its sole discretion determines

that the Notes shall be exchangeable for Notes in definitive registered form and executes and, in each case, delivers to the Trustee

or an Authenticating Agent a written order of the Company providing that the Notes shall be so exchangeable, the Notes shall be exchangeable

for Notes in definitive registered form; provided that the definitive Notes so issued in exchange for the Notes shall be in denominations

of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, and be of like aggregate principal amount and tenor as the portion of

the Notes to be exchanged. Except as provided herein, owners of beneficial interests in the Notes will not be entitled to have Notes

registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to physical delivery of Notes in definitive registered form and will not be

considered the holders thereof for any purpose under the Indenture. None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent nor the Security

Registrar shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial

ownership interests in the Notes, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to this Section 1.04(c) shall be exchangeable for Notes registered in such

names as the Depositary shall direct.

4

SECTION 1.05         Defeasance.

The provisions of Sections 13.02 and 13.03 of

the Base Indenture will apply to the Notes. An election by the Company to defease the Notes may be evidenced by a Certificate.

SECTION 1.06         No

Sinking Fund.

The Notes shall not be entitled to any sinking

fund, and Sections 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 of the Base Indenture will not apply to the Notes.

SECTION 1.07         Redemption

at the Option of the Company.

(a)            The

provisions of Sections 3.01, 3.02 and 3.03, as supplemented by the terms of this Eighth Supplemental Indenture, will apply to the Notes.

(b)            At

any time and from time to time prior to the Par Call Date, the Notes will be redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or in

part, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater

of (1) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to

the Redemption Date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve

30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 25 basis points, less (b) interest accrued to the Redemption Date, and (2) 100% of

the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

(c)            At

any time and from time to time on or after the Par Call Date, the Notes will be redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or

in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon

to the Redemption Date.

For purposes of this Section 1.07:

“Treasury Rate” means, with

respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company

as of 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or as of such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors

of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent

day that appear as of such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal

Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily) - H.15” (or any successor designation or publication)

(“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal”

(or any successor caption or heading) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as

applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the

Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal

to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than

and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate

to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal

places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield

for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury

constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable,

of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

5

If on the third business day preceding the redemption

date H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual

equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United

States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United

States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date

equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the

Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there

are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting

the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United

States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury

securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual

yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed

as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three

decimal places.

The Company’s actions and determinations

in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Trustee will have no

duty to calculate or verify the calculation of the redemption price.

(d)            Notwithstanding

Section 3.02 of the Base Indenture, the notice of redemption with respect to any redemption pursuant to Section 3.01 need not

set forth the Redemption Price but only the manner of calculation thereof as described above. Notice of any redemption shall be mailed

or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not

more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed.

SECTION 1.08         Reporting

Covenant.

(a)            For

so long as the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the

Company shall file with the Trustee and make available to the holders of the Securities (without exhibits), without cost to any holder,

copies of all documents that the Company files with, or furnishes to, the Commission under the Exchange Act, within 15 days after the

Company files them with, or furnishes them to, the Commission. Any such documents that are publicly available through the EDGAR system

of the Commission (or any successor system) shall be deemed to have been filed with the Trustee and made available to holders in accordance

with the Company’s obligations under this Section 1.08. If at any time the Company is not subject to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of

the Exchange Act, and to the extent not satisfied by the foregoing, the Company will make available to the holders of the Securities

and to prospective investors, for so long as any Securities are outstanding, in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed

from time to time by the Commission, such information as may be required pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) of the Securities Act.

6

(b)            Delivery

of such reports, statements, information and documents to the Trustee shall be for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s

receipt of such reports, information and documents shall not constitute actual or constructive notice of any information contained therein

or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of the covenants contained in this

Indenture (as to which the Trustee will be entitled to conclusively rely upon an Officers’ Certificate). The Trustee shall not

be obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or otherwise, the Company’s compliance with the covenants or with respect

to any reports or other documents filed with the SEC or EDGAR or any website under the Indenture.

ARTICLE II

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

SECTION 2.02         Notes

Unaffected by Other Supplemental Indentures.

To the extent the terms of the Base Indenture

are amended as provided herein, no such amendment shall in any way affect the terms of any other supplemental indenture or any other

series of Securities. This Eighth Supplemental Indenture shall relate and apply solely to the Notes.

SECTION 2.03         Trustee

Not Responsible for Recitals.

The recitals herein contained are made by the

Company and not by the Trustee or the Agents, and neither the Trustee nor the Agents assume any responsibility for the correctness thereof.

the Notes.

SECTION 2.04         Ratification

and Incorporation of Base Indenture.

As supplemented hereby, the Base Indenture is

in all respects ratified and confirmed, and the Base Indenture and this Eighth Supplemental Indenture shall be read, taken and construed

as one and the same instrument.

SECTION 2.05         Governing

Law.

THIS EIGHTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE SHALL BE DEEMED

TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND FOR ALL PURPOSES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE

In case any one or more of the provisions contained

in this Eighth Supplemental Indenture or in the Notes shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect,

such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Eighth Supplemental Indenture or of the

Notes, but this Eighth Supplemental Indenture and the Notes shall be construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision

had never been contained herein or therein.

SECTION 2.07         Executed

burden or expense to the Trustee). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract

or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity

and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by

applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures

and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions

6.150% Senior Notes due 2037

1            This

Note is one of a duly authorized issue of senior debt securities of the Company (the “Securities”) issued and issuable

in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of November 23, 2021 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented

by the Eighth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 15, 2026 (the “Eighth Supplemental Indenture,” and together

with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.,

as trustee (the “Trustee”), to which the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made

for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the

holders of the Notes issued thereunder and of the terms upon which said Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note

is one of the series designated on the face hereof as the 6.150% Senior Notes due 2037. Capitalized terms used herein for which no definition

is provided herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Indenture.

2            This

Note is exchangeable in whole or, from time to time, in part for Notes in definitive registered form only as provided herein and in the

Indenture. If (i) at any time the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for this

Note or if at any time the Depositary shall no longer be registered or in good standing as a “clearing agency” registered

pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or other applicable statute or regulation,

at such time as the Depositary is required to be so registered and the Depositary so notifies the Company and, in each case, the Company

does not appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as

the case may be, (ii) any Event of Default or Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes or (iii) subject

to the procedures of the Depositary, the Company in its sole discretion determines that this Note shall be exchangeable for Notes in

definitive registered form and executes and delivers to the Security Registrar a written order of the Company providing that this Note

shall be so exchangeable, this Note shall be exchangeable for Notes in definitive registered form, provided that the definitive Notes

so issued in exchange for this Note shall be in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof and be of

like aggregate principal amount and tenor as the portion of this Note to be exchanged. Except as provided herein or in the Eighth Supplemental

Indenture, owners of beneficial interests in this Note will not be entitled to have Notes registered in their names, will not receive

or be entitled to physical delivery of Notes in definitive registered form and will not be considered the holders thereof for any purpose

under the Indenture. None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent nor the Security Registrar shall have any responsibility or liability

for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in this Note, or for maintaining,

supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

3            If

an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable

in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.

A-6

4            The

Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations

of the Company and the rights of the holders of the Securities under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the

consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series

to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes

at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the holders of all Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture

and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the holder of this Note shall be

conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer

hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

5            The

Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness of the Company pursuant to this Note and

(b) restrictive covenants and the related Events of Default, upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein,

which provisions apply to this Note.

6            (a)

At any time and from time to time prior to October 15, 2036 (the “Par Call Date”), the Notes will be redeemable

at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded

to three decimal places) equal to the greater of (1) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments

of principal and interest thereon discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual

basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 25 basis points, less (b) interest

accrued to the Redemption Date, and (2) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued

and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

(b)            At

any time and from time to time on or after the Par Call Date, the Notes will be redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or

in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon

to the Redemption Date.

For purposes of this Section 6:

“Treasury Rate” means, with

respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company

as of 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or as of such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors

of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent

day that appear as of such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal

Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily) - H.15” (or any successor designation or publication)

(“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal”

(or any successor caption or heading) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as

applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the

Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal

to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than

and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate

to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal

places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield

for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury

constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable,

of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

A-7

If on the third business day preceding the redemption

date H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual

equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United

States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United

States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date

equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the

Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there

are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting

the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United

States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury

securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual

yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed

as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three

decimal places.

The Company’s actions and determinations

in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Trustee will have no

duty to calculate or verify the calculation of the redemption price.

(c)            Notice

of any redemption will be mailed (or, if the Notes are represented by one or more Global Securities, transmitted in accordance with the

Depositary’s standard procedures therefor) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each holder

of the Notes to be redeemed; provided, however, that any notice of redemption may be sent more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date

if such notice is issued in connection with a defeasance pursuant to Article XIII of the Base Indenture or a satisfaction and discharge

pursuant to Article XI of the Base Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the Redemption

Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes called for redemption and all rights under such Notes will terminate.

(d)            The

notice of redemption need not set forth the Redemption Price but only the manner of calculation thereof as described above.

A-8

7            [Intentionally

Omitted.]

8            The

Company shall be responsible for calculating the Redemption Price with respect to any redemption occurring prior to the Par Call Date.

9            No

reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company,

which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest due on this Note at the time, place and

rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

10          (a)

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security

Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company for such purpose, duly endorsed

by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company or the Security Registrar and duly executed

by, the holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and

of like tenor and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge

shall be made for any such exchange or registration of transfer, but the Company will require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any

tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

(b)            Prior

to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Security Registrar of

the Company or the Trustee may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes

(subject to Section 1.03(a) of the Eighth Supplemental Indenture), whether or not this Note be overdue and notwithstanding

any notice of ownership or writing thereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar, and none of the Company nor the Trustee

nor any Paying Agent nor the Security Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary. Except as provided in Section 1.03(a) of

the Eighth Supplemental Indenture, all payments of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest due on this Note made to or upon

the order of the registered holder hereof shall, to the extent of the amount or amounts so paid, effectually satisfy and discharge liability

for moneys payable on this Note.

(c)            The

Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000, or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal

amount of Notes of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the holder surrendering the same upon surrender of the Note or

Notes to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Company.

11          No

recourse shall be had for payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on this Note, or for any claim based hereon, or

otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director,

past, present or future, as such, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution,

statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance

hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof, expressly waived and released.

Re:         Jackson

Financial Inc. - Underwritten Public Offering of Senior Notes

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special

counsel to Jackson Financial Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the issuance and sale

by the Company of $750,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 6.150% Senior Notes due 2037 (the “Senior Notes”),

pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated June 8, 2026 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), among the Company

and the representatives (the “Representatives”) of the underwriters (the “Underwriters”) listed

on Schedule II, among the Company and the Representatives. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings

ascribed to such terms in the Underwriting Agreement.

In the above capacity, we

have reviewed: (a) the registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-284340) filed by the Company with the Securities

and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities

Act”), which automatically became effective under the Securities Act on January 17, 2025, allowing for delayed offerings

pursuant to Rule 415 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act (the “Rules and Regulations”),

including the documents incorporated by reference therein (the “Registration Statement”); (b) the prospectus,

dated January 17, 2025 (the “Base Prospectus”), filed as part of the Registration Statement; (c) the preliminary

prospectus supplement, dated June 8, 2026, relating to the Senior Notes, in the form filed by the Company with the Commission on

June 8, 2026 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations; (d) the prospectus supplement, dated June 8,

2026 (together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”), relating to the Senior Notes, in the form filed by the

Company with the Commission on June 9, 2026 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations; (e) the Issuer

Free Writing Prospectus containing the final pricing terms of the Senior Notes dated June 8, 2026; (f) an executed copy of

the Underwriting Agreement; (g) an executed copy of the Indenture, dated as of November 23, 2021 (the “Senior Indenture”),

between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”); (h) an

executed copy of the Eighth Supplemental Indenture relating to the Senior Notes, dated as of June 15, 2026 (the “Supplemental

We have also examined, have

relied as to matters of fact upon and have assumed the accuracy of originals or copies certified, or otherwise identified to our satisfaction,

of such records, agreements, documents and other instruments and such representations, statements and certificates or comparable documents

of or from public officials and officers and representatives of the Company and of representations of such persons whom we have deemed

appropriate, and have made such other investigations as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter

set forth. In such examination, and in connection with our review of all such documents, including the documents referred to in clauses

(a) through (j) of the preceding paragraph, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all persons,

the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us

as copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents.

With your permission, for

purposes of the opinion expressed herein, we have assumed that the Trustee has the power and authority to authenticate the certificates

representing the Senior Notes.

Based upon and subject to

the foregoing, and subject to the further limitations, qualifications and assumptions stated herein, we are of the opinion that the issuance

and sale of the Senior Notes have been duly authorized by the Company, each certificate representing the Senior Notes has been duly executed

and delivered by the Company, and when each certificate representing the Senior Notes has been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee

in accordance with the terms of the Senior Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture and the Senior Notes have been delivered to the Underwriters

against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Senior Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture,

the Senior Notes will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, entitled to the benefits of the Senior Indenture

and the Supplemental Indenture, and will be enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to (i) bankruptcy,

insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting

creditors' rights generally; and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such principles are considered in a proceeding

at law or in equity).

We express no opinion as

to the effect of any federal or state laws regarding fraudulent transfers or conveyances. We express no opinion as to the laws of any

jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal laws

of the United States. In particular (and without limiting the generality of the foregoing), we express no opinion concerning the effect,

if any, of any law of any jurisdiction (except the State of New York) in which any holder of any Senior Notes is located that limits

the rate of interest that such holder may charge or collect. Furthermore, we express no opinion as to: (i) whether a United States

federal court would accept jurisdiction in any dispute, action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Senior Notes or

the Indenture or the transactions contemplated thereby; and (ii) any waiver of inconvenient forum.
