Contractual arrangements have been made with the fund’s investment adviser, Transamerica Asset Management, Inc. (“TAM”), through March 1, 2011, to waive fees and/or reimburse fund expenses to the extent that the fund’s total operating expenses exceed 1.17%, excluding 12b-1 fees and extraordinary expenses. TAM is entitled to reimbursement by the fund of fees waived or expenses reduced during any of the previous 36 months if on any day the estimated annualized fund operating expenses are less than the cap, excluding 12b-1 fees and extraordinary expenses. The fund may not recapture any fees waived and/or reimbursed prior to March 1, 2008. The expense cap may be terminated by the fund’s Board of Trustees at any time.

^b	Annual fund operating expenses for Classes A, B, C and T have been restated to reflect expenses for the current fiscal year. Annual fund operating expenses for Class I are based on estimates for the current fiscal year.

Example: This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the fund operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

If the shares are redeemed at the end of each period:
Share Class	1 year	3 years	5 years	10 years
A	$ 696	$ 1,030	$ 1,386	$ 2,387
B⁺	$ 720	$ 1,043	$ 1,393	$ 2,588
C	$ 320	$ 706	$ 1,218	$ 2,626
I	$ 97	$ 303	$ 525	$ 1,166
T	$ 944	$ 1,144	$ 1,360	$ 1,981
If the shares are not redeemed:
Share Class	1 year	3 years	5 years	10 years
A	$ 696	$ 1,030	$ 1,386	$ 2,387
B⁺	$ 220	$ 743	$ 1,293	$ 2,588
C	$ 220	$ 706	$ 1,218	$ 2,626
I	$ 97	$ 303	$ 525	$ 1,166
T	$ 944	$ 1,144	$ 1,360	$ 1,981

+ Examples for Class B shares assume conversion into Class A shares eight years after purchase.

The Example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends (and other distributions). If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

Portfolio Turnover: The fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the fund performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the portfolio turnover rate was 53% of the average value of the fund's portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in domestic common stocks. The fund invests primarily in common stocks of growth-oriented companies. Each stock is evaluated and ranked on a consistent set of growth, valuation, and quality criteria and the fund will seek diversified sources of return from these criteria.

The fund’s sub-adviser, Wellington Management Company, LLP, uses what is sometimes referred to as a “bottom up” approach, which is the use of fundamental analysis to identify specific securities within industries or sectors for purchase or sale. Fundamental analysis involves the assessment of a company’s business environment, market share, management, global expansion plans, balance sheet, income statement, anticipated earnings, revenues, and other related measures of value.

The sub-adviser continually monitors every company in the fund’s portfolio for fundamental attractiveness. The fund typically sells an investment when the investment achieves its anticipated potential, the company begins to show deteriorating relative fundamentals or alternative investments become sufficiently more attractive.

Consistent with the fund’s objective and other policies, the fund may invest to a lesser extent in derivatives, including futures, forwards, options and swaps. The fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in foreign securities (not including American Depositary Receipts, American Depositary Shares or U.S. dollar denominated securities of foreign issuers).

The fund may invest in cash, cash equivalent securities or short-term debt securities, repurchase agreements and money market instruments. Under adverse or unstable market, economic or political conditions, the fund may take temporary defensive positions in cash and short-term debt securities without limit.

Principal Risks: The value of your investment in the fund, as well as the amount of return you receive on your investment, may fluctuate significantly from day to day and over time. You may lose part or all of your investment in the fund or your investment may not perform as well as other similar investments. The following is a summary of certain risks (in alphabetical order) of investing in the fund. You may lose money if you invest in this fund.

•

Currency – When the fund invests in securities denominated in foreign currencies, the fund may incur currency conversion costs and may be affected favorably or unfavorably by changes in the rates of exchange between those currencies and the U.S. dollar. Currency exchange rates can be volatile and are affected by, among other factors, the general economics of a country, the actions of the U.S. and foreign governments or control banks, the imposition of currency controls, and speculation.

•	Defensive Investing – Short-term debt securities held by the fund for defensive investing purposes can fluctuate in value. Like other fixed income securities, they are subject to risk, including market, interest rate and credit risk. If the fund holds

cash uninvested it will be subject to the credit risk of the depository institution holding the cash. If a significant amount of the fund's assets are used for defensive investing purposes, it will be more difficult for the fund to achieve its objective.

•

Derivatives – Using derivatives can increase fund losses and reduce opportunities for gains when market prices, interest rates or the derivative instruments themselves behave in a way not anticipated by the fund. Using derivatives also can have a leveraging effect and increase fund volatility. Derivatives may be difficult to sell, unwind or value, and the counterparty may default on its obligations to the fund. The fund's investments in derivative instruments may involve a small investment relative to the amount of investment exposure assumed and may result in losses exceeding the amounts invested in those instruments.

•

Fixed-Income Securities – The market prices of fixed-income securities may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions, inflation, changes in interest rates, lack of liquidity in the bond markets or adverse investor sentiment. When market prices fall, the value of your investment will go down. A rise in rates tends to have a greater impact on the prices of longer term or duration securities.

•	Focused Investing – To the extent the fund invests in a limited number of issuers, changes in the value of individual securities may have a significant impact on your investment.

•

Foreign Securities – Foreign securities are subject to a number of additional risks, including nationalization or expropriation of assets, imposition of currency controls or restrictions, confiscatory taxation, political or financial instability and other adverse economic or political developments. Lack of information and less market regulation also may affect the value of these securities.

•

Growth Stocks – Returns on growth stocks may not move in tandem with returns on other categories of stocks or the market as a whole. Growth stocks may be particularly susceptible to rapid price swings or to adverse developments. Growth stocks as a group may be out of favor and underperform the overall equity market for a long period of time, for example, while the market favors “value” stocks.

•

Increase in Expenses – Your actual costs of investing in the fund may be higher than the expenses shown in “Annual Fund Operating Expenses” for a variety of reasons. For example, expense ratios may be higher than those shown if average net assets decrease. Net assets are more likely to decrease and fund expense ratios are more likely to increase when markets are volatile.

•

Market – The market prices of the fund's securities may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions, inflation, changes in interest rates or currency rates, lack of liquidity in the markets or adverse investor sentiment. Market prices of securities also may go down due to events or conditions that affect particular sectors or issuers. When market prices fall, the value of your investment will go down. The recent financial crisis has caused a significant decline in the value and liquidity of many securities. In response to the financial crisis, the federal government has taken various steps to stimulate the economy, and the expiration or termination of these stimulus measures may negatively affect the value and liquidity of certain securities. The fund may experience a substantial or complete loss on any individual security.

•	Portfolio Selection – The sub-adviser’s judgment about a particular security or issuer, or about the economy or a particular sector, region or market segment, or about an investment strategy, may prove to be incorrect.

•	Small- or Medium-Sized Companies – Small- or medium-sized companies may be more at risk than larger companies because, among other things, they may have limited product lines, operating history, market or financial resources, or because they may depend on a limited management group.

•	Stocks – Stocks may be volatile – their prices may go up and down dramatically over the shorter term. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, industries, the securities market as a whole or the over-all economy.

Performance: The bar chart and the table below provide some indication of the risks of investing in the fund by showing you how the fund’s performance has varied from year to year, and how the fund’s average annual total returns for different periods compare to the returns of a broad measure of market performance. The bar chart does not reflect the impact of sales charges, which, if reflected, would lower the returns. The table, which shows average annual total returns for each class of shares of the fund, includes deduction of applicable sales charges. Absent limitation of the fund’s expenses, total returns would be lower. As with all mutual funds, past performance (before and after taxes) is not a prediction of future results. Updated performance information is available on our website at www.transamericafunds.com or by calling 1-888-233-4339.
