Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for AB Variable Products Series Fund, Inc. (the “Company”) in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of an indefinite number of shares, par value $.001 per share, of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (each, a “Class,” and collectively, the “Shares”), as applicable, of the Company’s AB Large Cap Growth Portfolio, AB Relative Value Portfolio, AB Sustainable Global Thematic Portfolio, AB Small Cap Growth Portfolio, AB International Value Portfolio, AB Discovery Value Portfolio, AB Balanced Hedged Allocation Portfolio, AB Dynamic Asset Allocation Portfolio and AB Global Risk Allocation—Moderate Portfolio (the “Portfolios”). The Company is a Maryland corporation and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company.

As counsel for the Company, we have participated in the preparation of the Post-Effective Amendment to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form N-1A (File Nos. 33-18647 and 811-05398) to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on April 28, 2025 and to become effective on May 1, 2025, pursuant to paragraph (b) of Rule 485 under the Securities Act (as so amended, the “Registration Statement”) in which this letter is included as Exhibit (i). We have examined the Charter and By-Laws of the Company and applicable amendments and supplements thereto and have relied upon such corporate records of the Company and such other documents and certificates as to factual matters as we have deemed to be necessary to render the opinion expressed herein.

Based on such examination, we are of the opinion that the Shares to be offered for sale pursuant to the Registration Statement are, to the extent of the number of Shares of the relevant Classes of the above-referenced Portfolios authorized to be issued by the Company in its Charter, duly authorized, and, when sold, issued and paid for as contemplated by the Registration
