Adjusted Policy Value—The policy value increased or decreased by any excess interest adjustment.

 

Annuitant—The person on whose life any annuity payments involving life contingencies will be based.

 

Annuity Commencement Date—The date upon which annuity payments are to commence. This date may be any date at least thirty days after the policy date and may not be later than the last day of the policy month following the month after the annuitant attains age 95.

Annuity Payment Option—A method of receiving a stream of annuity payments selected by the owner.

 

Cash Value—The adjusted policy value less any applicable surrender charge and rider fees (imposed upon surrender).

 

Excess Interest Adjustment—A positive or negative adjustment to amounts surrendered (both partial or full surrenders and transfers) or applied to annuity payment options from the fixed account guaranteed period options prior to the end of the guaranteed period. The adjustment reflects changes in the interest rates declared by Transamerica since the date any payment was received by, or an amount was transferred to, the guaranteed period option. The excess interest adjustment can either decrease or increase the amount to be received by the owner upon full surrender or commencement of annuity payments, depending upon whether there has been an increase or decrease in interest rates, respectively.

Policy Date— The date shown on the policy data page attached to the policy and the date on which the policy becomes effective.

 

Policy Value—On or before the annuity commencement date, the policy value is equal to the owner’s:

 

  premium payments; minus

 

  gross partial surrenders (partial surrenders minus excess interest adjustments plus the surrender charge on the portion of the requested partial surrender that is subject to the surrender charge); plus

 

  interest credited in the fixed account; plus

 

  accumulated gains in the separate account; minus

 

  accumulated losses in the separate account; minus

 

  service charges, rider fees, premium taxes, transfer fees, and other charges, if any.

 

Policy Year—A policy year begins on the policy date and on each policy anniversary.

 

Separate Account—Separate Account VA B, a separate account established and registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), to which premium payments under the policies may be allocated.

 

Subaccount—A subdivision within the separate account, the assets of which are invested in specified underlying fund portfolios.

 

You (Your)—the owner of the contract.

SUMMARY

 

The sections in this summary correspond to sections in this prospectus, which discuss the topics in more detail.

 

1. THE ANNUITY POLICY

 

The flexible premium deferred variable annuity policy offered by Transamerica Life Insurance Company (Transamerica, we, us, or our) provides a way for you to invest on a tax-deferred basis in the following investment choices: various subaccounts of the separate account and the fixed account of Transamerica. The policy is intended to accumulate money for retirement or other long-term investment purposes.

 

This policy currently offers subaccounts that are listed in Section 3. Each subaccount invests exclusively in shares of one of the underlying funds. The policy value may depend on the investment experience of the selected subaccounts. Therefore, you bear the entire investment risk with respect to all policy value in any subaccount. You could lose the amount that you invest.

 

The fixed account offers an interest rate that Transamerica guarantees.

 

The policy, like all deferred annuity policies, has two phases: the “accumulation phase” and the “income phase.” During the accumulation phase, earnings accumulate on a tax-deferred basis and are taxed as ordinary income when you take them out of the policy. The income phase occurs when you annuitize and begin receiving regular annuity payments from your policy. The money you can accumulate during the accumulation phase will largely determine the payments you receive during the income phase.

 

2. PURCHASE

 

You can buy a nonqualified policy with $5,000 or more, and a qualified policy with $1,000 or more, under most circumstances. You can add as little as $50 at any time during the accumulation phase.

 

3. INVESTMENT CHOICES

 

You can allocate your premium payments to one or more of the following underlying fund portfolios described in the underlying fund prospectuses:

As of May 1, 2003, new policy owners may only invest in the Service Class subaccounts of AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. The Initial Class subaccounts of the AEGON/ Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. are only available to owners that purchased the policy before May 1, 2003. The Service Class of the AEGON/ Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. has a Rule 12b-1 Plan (and higher expenses) and the Initial Class does not.

 

Depending upon their investment performance, you can make or lose money in any of the subaccounts.

 

You can also allocate your premium payments to the fixed account.

 

We currently allow you to transfer money between any of the investment choices during the accumulation phase. We reserve the right to impose a $10 fee for each transfer in excess of 12 transfers per policy year and to impose restrictions and limitations on transfers.

 

4. PERFORMANCE

 

The value of the policy will vary up or down depending upon the investment performance of the subaccounts you choose. We provide past performance information in Appendix B and in the SAI. This data does not indicate future performance.

 

5. EXPENSES

 

Note: The following section on expenses and the Annuity Policy Fee Table and expense examples only apply to policies issued after the date of this prospectus. See Appendix C for older policies.

 

No deductions are made from premium payments at the time you buy the policy so that the full amount of each premium payment is invested in one or more of your investment choices.

 

We may deduct a surrender charge of up to 8% of premium payments surrendered within seven years after the premium is paid. We will calculate surrender charges by taking the earnings, if any, out before premium payments.

 

Full surrenders, partial surrenders, and transfers from a guaranteed period option of the fixed account may also be subject to an excess interest adjustment, which may increase or decrease the amount you receive. This adjustment may also apply to amounts applied to an annuity payment option from a guaranteed period option of the fixed account prior to the end of the guaranteed period option.

 

6


Table of Contents

We deduct daily mortality and expense risk fees and administrative charges at an annual rate of 1.30% (if you choose the “Return of Premium Death Benefit”), or 1.50% (if you choose the Annual Step-Up Death Benefit), or 1.80% (if you choose the “Double Enhanced Death Benefit”) from the assets in each subaccount.

 

During the accumulation phase, we deduct an annual service charge of no more than $35 from the policy value on each policy anniversary and at the time of surrender. The charge is waived if either the policy value or the sum of all premium payments, minus all partial surrenders, is at least $50,000.

 

Upon full surrender, payment of a death benefit, or when annuity payments begin, we will deduct state premium taxes, if applicable, which currently range from 0% to 3.50%.

 

If you elect the Initial Payment Guarantee when you annuitize, there is a daily fee currently equal to an annual rate of 1.25% of the daily net asset value in the subaccounts.

 

If you elect the Additional Death Distribution, there is an annual fee during the accumulation phase of 0.25% of the policy value.

 

The value of the net assets of the subaccounts will reflect the management fee and other expenses incurred by the underlying fund portfolios.

 

6. ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY

 

You can generally take out $500 or more anytime during the accumulation phase (except under certain qualified policies). You may generally take free of surrender charges each year:

 

  10% of your premium payments; or

 

  any gains in the policy.

 

Amounts surrendered in excess of this free amount may be subject to a surrender charge and excess interest adjustment. You may also have to pay income tax and a tax penalty on any money you take out.

 

The gains in the policy are the amount equal to the policy value, minus the sum of all premium payments, reduced by all prior partial surrenders deemed to be from premium.

 

If you have policy value in the fixed account, you may take out any cumulative interest credited free of excess interest adjustments.

 

Access to amounts held in qualified policies may be restricted or prohibited.

 

Surrenders are not generally permitted during the income phase unless you elect the Life with Emergency CashSM annuity payment option.

 

7. ANNUITY PAYMENTS (THE INCOME PHASE)

 

The policy allows you to receive income under one of several annuity payment options. You may choose from fixed payment options, variable payment options, or a combination of both. If you select a variable payment option, the dollar amount of your payments may go up or down. However, the Initial Payment Guarantee is available as an optional rider and it guarantees a minimum amount for each payment.

 

8. DEATH BENEFIT

 

If the sole annuitant dies before the income phase begins, then the beneficiary will generally receive a death benefit. If the owner is not the annuitant, no death benefit is paid if the owner dies.

 

Naming different persons as owner and annuitant can affect to whom and whether amounts will be paid. Use care when naming owners, annuitants and beneficiaries, and consult your agent if you have questions.

 

When you purchase a policy you generally may choose one of the following guaranteed minimum death benefits:

 

  Double Enhanced; or

 

7


Table of Contents
  Annual Step-Up; or

 

  Return of Premium.

 

Charges are lower for the Return of Premium Death Benefit.

 

After the policy is issued, the guaranteed minimum death benefit cannot be changed.

 

The death benefit is paid first to a surviving owner, if any; it is only paid to the beneficiary if there is no surviving owner.

 

9. TAXES

 

Earnings, if any, are generally not taxed until taken out. If you take money out of a nonqualified policy during the accumulation phase, earnings come out first for federal tax purposes, and are taxed as ordinary income. If you are younger than 59½ when you take money out, you may incur a 10% federal penalty tax on the taxable earnings. For nonqualified and certain qualified policies, payments during the income phase may be considered partly a return of your original investment so that part of each payment may not be taxable as income. For qualified policies, payments during the income phase are, in many cases, considered as all taxable income.

 

10. ADDITIONAL FEATURES

 

This policy has additional features that might interest you. These include the following:

 

  You can arrange to have money automatically sent to you monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually while your policy is in the accumulation phase. This feature is referred to as the “Systematic Payout Option” (“SPO”). Amounts you receive may be included in your gross income, and in certain circumstances, may be subject to penalty taxes.

 

  You can elect an optional rider at the time of annuitization that guarantees your variable annuity payments will never be less than a percentage of the initial payment. This feature is called the “Initial Payment Guarantee” (“IPG”). There is an extra charge for this rider.

 

  You can elect an optional rider that pays an amount in addition to the policy death benefit in certain circumstances. This feature is called the “Additional Death Distribution” (“ADD”). There is an extra charge for this rider.

 

  Under certain medically related circumstances, you may surrender all or part of the policy value without a surrender charge and excess interest adjustment. This feature is called the “Nursing Care and Terminal Condition Withdrawal Option.”

 

  Under certain unemployment circumstances, you may surrender all or a portion of the policy value free of surrender charges and excess interest adjustments. This feature is called the “Unemployment Waiver.”

 

  You may generally make transfers and/or change the allocation of additional premium payments by telephone. We may restrict or eliminate this feature.

 

  You can arrange to automatically transfer money (at least $500 per transfer) monthly or quarterly from certain investment options into one or more subaccounts. This feature is known as “Dollar Cost Averaging.”

 

  We will, upon your request, automatically transfer amounts among the subaccounts on a regular basis to maintain a desired allocation of the policy value among the various subaccounts. This feature is called “Asset Rebalancing.”

 

These features may not be available for all policies, may vary for certain policies, and may not be suitable for your particular situation.

11. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Right to Cancel Period. You may return your policy for a refund, but only if you return it within a prescribed period, which is generally at least 10 days (after you receive the policy), or whatever longer time may be required by state law. The amount of the refund will generally be the premiums paid and accumulated gains or losses in the separate account. Please note, we will not credit interest on amounts allocated to the fixed account if you return your policy for a refund during the right to cancel period. We will pay the refund within 7 days after we receive (at our administrative and service office) written notice of cancellation and the returned policy within the applicable period. The policy will then be deemed void.

 

No Probate. Usually, the person receiving the death benefit under this policy will not have to go through probate. State laws vary on how the amount that may be paid is treated for estate tax purposes.

 

Who should purchase the Policy? This policy is designed for people seeking long-term tax-deferred accumulation of assets, generally for retirement or other long-term purposes; and for persons who have maximized their use of other retirement savings methods, such as 401(k) plans. The tax-deferred feature is most attractive to people in high federal and state tax brackets. The tax deferral features of variable annuities are unnecessary when purchased to fund a qualified plan. You should not buy this policy if you are looking for a short-term investment, market timing, or if you cannot take the risk of losing money that you put in.

 

There are various fees and charges associated with variable annuities. You should consider whether the features and benefits of this policy, unique to variable annuities, such as the opportunity for lifetime income payments, a guaranteed death benefit, the guaranteed level of certain charges, and additional features, make this policy appropriate for your needs.

 

Old Policies. This prospectus generally describes policies issued after the date of this prospectus. See Appendix C for information on how older policies have different features and requirements, and sometimes different fees and deductions.

 

State Variations. Certain provisions of the policies may be different than the general description in this prospectus, and certain riders and options may not be available, because of the legal restrictions in your state. See your policy for specific variations since any such state variations will be included in your policy or in riders or endorsements attached to your policy. See your agent or contact us for specific information that may be applicable to your state.

 

Financial Statements. Financial Statements for Transamerica and the subaccounts are in the SAI. Condensed financial information for the subaccounts (those in operation before January 1, 2004) is in Appendix A to this prospectus.

The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year, the maximum fees and expenses of any of the portfolios, and the highest combination of separate account expenses and optional rider fees. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

 

Example(11)    1 Year

   3 Years

   5 Years

   10 Years

If the policy is surrendered at the end of the applicable time period.

   $ 1,094    $ 1,767    $ 2,359    $ 3,894

If the policy is annuitized at the end of the applicable time period or if you do not surrender your policy.

   $ 361    $ 1,101    $ 1,866    $ 3,894

 

(1) During the income phase the fees may be different than those described in the Fee Table. See Section 5, Expenses.

 

11


Table of Contents
(2) The surrender charge, if any is imposed, applies to each policy, regardless of how policy value is allocated among the separate account and the fixed account. The surrender charge decreases based on the number of years since the premium payment was made.

 

If you select the Life with Emergency CashSM annuity payment option, you will be subject to a surrender charge after the annuity commencement date. See Section 5, Expenses.

 

(3) The transfer fee, if any is imposed, applies to each policy, regardless of how policy value is allocated among the separate account and the fixed account. There is no fee for the first 12 transfers per year. For additional transfers, Transamerica may charge a fee of $10 per transfer.

 

(4) The service charge applies to the fixed account and the separate account, and is assessed on a pro rata basis relative to each account’s policy value as a percentage of the policy’s total policy value. The annual service charge is deducted on each policy anniversary and at the time of full surrender. We may waive the service charge in certain instances.

 

(5) The mortality and expense risk fee shown (1.15%) is for the “Return of Premium Death Benefit.”

 

(6) The fee for the “Double Enhanced Death Benefit” (0.50%) is in addition to the mortality and expense risk fee for a total mortality and expense risk fee of 1.65%.

 

(7) The fee for the “Annual Step-Up Death Benefit” (0.20%) is in addition to the mortality and expense risk fee for a total mortality and expense risk fee of 1.35%.

 

(8) The Double Enhanced Death Benefit fee is included herein.

 

(9) The annual Additional Death Distribution fee is 0.25% of the policy value and is deducted only during the accumulation phase.

 

(10) The fee table information relating to the underlying fund portfolios is for the year ending December 31, 2003 (unless otherwise noted) and was provided to Transamerica by the underlying fund portfolios, their investment advisors or managers, and Transamerica has not and cannot independently verify the accuracy or completeness of such information. Actual future expenses of the portfolios may be greater or less than those shown in the Table.

 

(11) The Example does not reflect premium tax charges or transfer fees. Different fees and expenses not reflected in the Example may be assessed during the income phase of the policy.

 

Please remember that the Example is an illustration and does not represent past or future expenses. Your actual expenses may be lower or higher than those reflected in the Example. Similarly, your rate of return may be more or less than the 5% assumed in the Example.

1. THE ANNUITY POLICY

 

This prospectus describes the Transamerica Landmark Variable Annuity policy offered by Transamerica Life Insurance Company. This prospectus generally describes policies issued on or after the date of this prospectus. Policies issued before that date may have different features (such as different death benefits or annuity payment options) and different charges. These differences are noted in Appendix C.

 

An annuity is a contract between you, the owner, and an insurance company (in this case Transamerica), where the insurance company promises to pay you an income in the form of annuity payments. These payments begin on a designated date, referred to as the annuity commencement date. Until the annuity commencement date, your annuity is in the accumulation phase and the earnings (if any) are tax deferred. Tax deferral means you generally are not taxed until you take money out of your annuity. After you annuitize, your annuity switches to the income phase.

 

The policy is a flexible premium deferred variable annuity. You can use the policy to accumulate funds for retirement or other long-term financial planning purposes. Your individual investment and your rights are determined primarily by your own policy.

 

The policy is a “flexible premium” annuity because after you purchase it, you can generally make additional investments of $50 or more until the annuity commencement date. You are not required to make any additional investments.

 

The policy is a “variable” annuity because the value of your investments can go up or down based on the performance of your investment choices. If you invest in the separate account, the amount of money you are able to accumulate in your policy during the accumulation phase depends upon the performance of your investment choices. You could lose the amount you allocate to the separate account. The amount of annuity payments you receive during the income phase from the separate account also depends upon the investment performance of your investment choices for the income phase. However, if you annuitize under the Initial Payment Guarantee, then Transamerica will guarantee a minimum amount of your annuity payments. There is an extra charge for this rider.

 

The policy also contains a fixed account. The fixed account offers interest at rates that we guarantee will not decrease during the selected guaranteed period. There may be different interest rates for each different guaranteed period that you select.

 

2. PURCHASE

 

Policy Issue Requirements

 

Transamerica will not issue a policy unless:

 

  Transamerica receives (at our administrative and service office) all information needed to issue the policy;

 

  Transamerica receives (at our administrative and service office) a minimum initial premium payment; and

 

  The annuitant, owner, and any joint owner are age 90 or younger (may be lower for qualified policies).

 

We reserve the right to reject any application or premium payment.

 

Premium Payments

 

You should make checks for premium payments payable only to Transamerica Life Insurance Company and send them to the administrative and service office. Your check must be honored in order for Transamerica to pay any associated payments and benefits due under the policy.

 

13


Table of Contents

Initial Premium Requirements

 

The initial premium payment for nonqualified policies must be at least $5,000, and at least $1,000 for qualified policies. There is generally no minimum initial premium payment for policies issued under section 403(b) of the Internal Revenue Code; however, your premium must be received within 90 days of the policy date or your policy will be canceled. We will credit your initial premium payment to your policy within two business days after the day we receive it and your complete policy information. If we are unable to credit your initial premium payment, we will contact you within five business days and explain why. We will also return your initial premium payment at that time unless you let us keep it and credit it as soon as possible.

 

The date on which we credit your initial premium payment to your policy is generally the policy date. The policy date is used to determine policy years, policy months and policy anniversaries.

 

There may be delays in our receipt of applications that are outside of our control (for example, because of the failure of the selling broker/dealer or sales agent to forward the application to us promptly, or because of delays in determining that the policy is suitable for you). Any such delays will affect when your policy can be issued and your premium allocated among your investment choices.

 

Additional Premium Payments

 

You are not required to make any additional premium payments. However, you can generally make additional premium payments as often as you like during the accumulation phase. Additional premium payments must be at least $50. We will credit additional premium payments to your policy as of the business day we receive your premium and required information. Additional premium payments must be received before the New York Stock Exchange closes to get same-day pricing of the additional premium payment.

 

Maximum Total Premium Payments

 

Cumulative premium payments above $1,000,000 require prior approval by Transamerica.

 

Allocation of Premium Payments

 

When you purchase a policy, we will allocate your premium payment to the investment choices you select. Your allocation must be in whole percentages and must total 100%. We will allocate additional premium payments the same way, unless you request a different allocation.

 

If you allocate premium payments to the Dollar Cost Averaging program, you must give us instructions regarding the subaccount(s) to which transfers are to be made or we cannot accept your premium payment.

 

You may change allocations for future additional premium payments by sending written instructions to our administrative and service office or by telephone, subject to the limitations described under “Telephone Transactions.” The allocation change will apply to premium payments received on or after the date we receive the change request.

 

You could lose the amount you allocate to the variable subaccounts.

 

Transamerica reserves the right to restrict or refuse any premium payment.

 

Policy Value

 

You should expect your policy value to change from valuation period to valuation period. A valuation period begins at the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on each business day and ends at the close of regular trading on the next succeeding business day. A business day is each day that the New York Stock Exchange is open. The New York Stock Exchange generally closes at 4:00 p.m. eastern time. Holidays are generally not business days.

The general public may not purchase shares of these underlying fund portfolios. The names and investment objectives and policies may be similar to other portfolios managed by the same investment advisor or manager that are sold directly to the public. You should not expect the investment results of the underlying fund portfolios to be the same as those of other portfolios.

 

More detailed information, including an explanation of the portfolios’ fees and investment objectives, may be found in the current prospectuses for the underlying fund portfolios, which accompany this prospectus. You should read the prospectuses for the underlying fund portfolios carefully before you invest.

 

We may receive expense reimbursements or other revenues from the underlying fund portfolios or their managers. The amount of these reimbursements or revenues, if any, may be substantial and may be different for different portfolios and may be based on the amount of assets that Transamerica or the separate account invests in the underlying fund portfolios. Currently these revenues are up to 0.75% of assets each year.

 

We do not guarantee that any of the subaccounts will always be available for premium payments, allocations, or transfers. See the SAI for more information concerning the possible addition, deletion, or substitution of investments.

 

We also reserve the right to limit the number of subaccounts you are invested in at any one time.

 

The Fixed Account

 

Premium payments allocated and amounts transferred to the fixed account become part of Transamerica’s general account. Interests in the general account have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”), nor is the general account registered as an investment company under the 1940 Act. Accordingly, neither the general account nor any interests therein are generally subject to the provisions of the 1933 or 1940 Acts.

 

While we do not guarantee that the fixed account will always be available for investment, we do guarantee that the interest credited to the fixed account will not be less than the guaranteed minimum effective annual interest rate shown on your policy (the “guaranteed minimum”). We determine credited rates, which are guaranteed for at least one year, in our sole discretion. You bear the risk that we will not credit interest greater than the guaranteed minimum. At the end of the guaranteed period option you selected, the value in that guaranteed period option will automatically be transferred into a new guaranteed period option of the same length (or the next shorter period if the same period is no longer offered) at the current interest rate for that period. You can transfer to another investment choice by giving us notice within 30 days before the end of the expiring guaranteed period.

 

Full and partial surrenders and transfers from a guaranteed period option of the fixed account are generally subject to an excess interest adjustment (except at the end of the guaranteed period). This adjustment will also be made to amounts that you apply to an annuity payment option. This adjustment may increase or decrease the amount of interest credited to your policy. The excess interest adjustment will not decrease the interest credited to your policy below the guaranteed minimum, however.

 

17


Table of Contents

We also guarantee that upon full surrender your cash value attributable to the fixed account will not be less than the amount required by the applicable nonforfeiture law at the time the policy is issued.

 

If you select the fixed account, your money will be placed with Transamerica’s other general assets. The amount of money you are able to accumulate in the fixed account during the accumulation phase depends upon the total interest credited. The amount of annuity payments you receive during the income phase from the fixed portion of your policy will remain level for the entire income phase.

 

We reserve the right to refuse any premium payment to the fixed account.

 

Transfers

 

During the accumulation phase, you may make transfers to or from any subaccount or to the fixed account as often as you wish within certain limitations.

 

Transfers out of a guaranteed period option of the fixed account are limited to the following:

 

  Transfers at the end of a guaranteed period. No excess interest adjustment will apply.

 

  Transfers of amounts equal to interest credited. This may affect your overall interest-crediting rate, because transfers are deemed to come from the oldest premium payment first.

 

  Other than at the end of a guaranteed period, transfers of amounts from the guaranteed period option in excess of amounts equal to interest credited, are subject to an excess interest adjustment. If it is a negative adjustment, the maximum amount you can transfer in any one policy year is 25% of the amount in that guaranteed period option, less any previous transfers during the current policy year. If it is a positive adjustment, we do not limit the amount that you can transfer.

 

Each transfer must be at least $500, or the entire subaccount value. Transfers of interest from a guaranteed period option of the fixed account must be at least $50. If less than $500 remains as a result of the transfer, then we reserve the right to include that amount in the transfer. Transfer requests must be received while the New York Stock Exchange is open to get same-day pricing of the transaction.

 

We reserve the right to prohibit transfers to the fixed account.

 

The number of transfers permitted may be limited and a $10 charge per transfer may apply.

 

During the income phase, you may transfer values out of any subaccount; however, you cannot transfer values out of the fixed account. The minimum amount that can be transferred during this phase is the lesser of $10 of monthly income, or the entire monthly income of the annuity units in the subaccount from which the transfer is being made.

 

Transfers made by telephone are subject to the limitations described below under “Telephone Transactions.”

 

Disruptive Trading and Market Timing

 

Statement of Policy. This policy was not designed for the use of programmed, large, frequent, or short-term transfers. Such transfers may be disruptive to the underlying fund portfolios and increase transaction costs.

 

Programmed, large, frequent, or short-term transfers among the subaccounts or between the subaccounts and the fixed account can cause risks with adverse effects for other policy owners (and beneficiaries and underlying fund portfolios). These risks and harmful effects include: (1) dilution of the interests of long-term investors in a subaccount if purchases or transfers into or out of an underlying fund portfolio are made at unit values that do not reflect an accurate value for the underlying fund portfolio’s investments (some “market timers” attempt to do this through methods known as “time-zone arbitrage” and “liquidity arbitrage”); (2) an adverse effect on

 

18


Table of Contents

portfolio management, such as impeding a portfolio manager’s ability to sustain an investment objective, causing the underlying fund portfolio to maintain a higher level of cash than would otherwise be the case, or causing an underlying fund portfolio to liquidate investments prematurely (or otherwise at an inopportune time) in order to pay withdrawals or transfers out of the underlying fund portfolio; and (3) increased brokerage and administrative expenses. These costs are borne by all policy owners invested in those subaccounts, not just those making the transfers.

 

Do not invest with us if you intend to conduct market timing or other disruptive trading.

 

Detection. We have developed policies and procedures with respect to market timing and other transfers and do not grant exceptions thereto. We employ various means in an attempt to detect and deter market timing and disruptive trading. However, despite our monitoring we may not be able to detect nor halt all harmful trading. In addition, because other insurance companies with different policies and procedures may invest in the underlying fund portfolios, we cannot guarantee all harmful trading will be detected or that an underlying fund portfolio will not suffer harm from programmed, large, frequent, or short-term transfers among subaccounts of variable products issued by these other insurance companies.

 

Deterrence. If we determine you are engaged in market timing or other disruptive trading, we may take one or more actions in an attempt to halt such trading. Your ability to make transfers is subject to modification or restriction if we determine, in our sole opinion, that your exercise of the transfer privilege may disadvantage or potentially harm the rights or interests of other policy owners. As described below, restrictions may take various forms, and may include permanent loss of expedited transfer privileges. We consider transfers by telephone, fax, overnight mail, or the Internet to be “expedited” transfers. We may also restrict the transfer privileges of others acting on your behalf, including your registered representative or an asset allocation or investment advisory service.

 

We reserve the right to reject any premium payment or transfer request from any person without prior notice, if, in our judgment, the payment or transfer, or series of transfers, would have a negative impact on an underlying fund portfolio’s operations, if an underlying fund portfolio would reject or has rejected our purchase order, or because of a history of large or frequent transfers. We may impose other restrictions on transfers, such as requiring written transfer requests with an original signature conveyed only via U.S. Mail for all transfers, or even prohibit transfers for any owner who, in our view, has abused, or appears likely to abuse, the transfer privilege. We may, at any time and without prior notice, discontinue transfer privileges, modify our procedures, impose holding period requirements or limit the number, size, frequency, manner, or timing of transfers we permit. We also reserve the right to reverse a potentially harmful transfer. For all of these purposes, we may aggregate two or more policies that we believe are connected.

 

In addition to our internal policies and procedures, we will administer your policy to comply with state, federal, and other regulatory requirements concerning transfers. We reserve the right to implement, administer, and charge you for any fee or restriction, including redemption fees, imposed by any underlying fund portfolio. To the extent permitted by law, we also reserve the right to defer the transfer privilege at any time we are unable to purchase or redeem shares of any of the underlying fund portfolios.

 

4. PERFORMANCE

 

Transamerica periodically advertises performance of the various subaccounts. Performance figures might not reflect charges for options, riders, or endorsements. We may disclose at least three different kinds of performance. First, we may calculate performance by determining the percentage change in the value of an accumulation

 

19


Table of Contents

unit by dividing the increase (decrease) for that unit by the value of the accumulation unit at the beginning of the period. This performance number reflects the deduction of the mortality and expense risk fees and administrative charges. It does not reflect the deduction of any applicable premium taxes, surrender charges, or fees for any optional riders or endorsements. The deduction of any applicable premium taxes, surrender charges, or rider fees would reduce the percentage increase or make greater any percentage decrease.

 

Second, advertisements may also include total return figures, which reflect the deduction of the mortality and expense risk fees and administrative charges. These figures may also include or exclude surrender charges.

 

Third, in addition, for certain investment portfolios, performance may be shown for the period commencing from the inception date of the investment portfolio (i.e., before commencement of subaccount operations). These figures should not be interpreted to reflect actual historical performance of the subaccounts.

 

We also may, from time to time, include in our advertising and sales materials, the performance of other funds or accounts managed by the subadvisor, the performance of predecessors to the underlying fund portfolios, tax deferred compounding charts and other hypothetical illustrations, which may include comparisons of currently taxable and tax deferred investment programs, based on selected tax brackets.

 

All types of performance data may not reflect all of the fees and charges that may be deducted (such as fees for optional benefits) and performance figures would be lower if these charges were included.

 

Appendix B to this prospectus contains past performance information that you may find useful. It is divided into various parts, depending upon the type of performance information shown. Past performance is no indication of future performance; future performance will vary and future results will not be the same as the results shown.

 

5. EXPENSES

 

There are charges and expenses associated with your policy that reduce the return on your investment in the policy.

 

Surrender Charges

 

During the accumulation phase, you can surrender part or all of the cash value (restrictions may apply to qualified policies). We may apply a surrender charge to compensate us for expenses relating to sales, including commissions to registered representatives and other promotional expenses.

 

You can surrender up to the greater of 10% of your premium payments or any gains in the policy once each year free of surrender charges. This amount is referred to as the free percentage and is determined at the time of surrender. (The free percentage is not cumulative, so not surrendering anything in one year does not increase the surrender charge free amount in subsequent years.) If the surrender is in excess of this free amount, you might have to pay a surrender charge, which is a contingent deferred sales charge, on the excess amount.

 

The following schedule shows the surrender charges that apply during the seven years following payment of each premium payment:

 

Number of Years

Table of Contents

For example, assume your premium is $100,000 and your policy value is $106,000 at the beginning of the second policy year and you surrender $30,000. Since that amount is more than your free amount ($10,000), you would pay a surrender charge of $1,600 on the remaining $20,000 (8% of $30,000—$10,000).

 

Likewise, assume your policy value is $80,000 (premium payments $100,000) at the beginning of the second policy year and you surrender your policy. You would pay a surrender charge of $7,200 [8% of ($100,000 – ($100,000 x 10%))].

 

You can generally choose to receive the full amount of a requested partial surrender by directing us to deduct any applicable surrender charge (and any applicable excess interest adjustment) from your remaining policy value. You receive your cash value upon full surrender.

 

For surrender charge purposes, earnings are considered to be surrendered first, then the oldest premium is considered to be surrendered next.

 

Surrender charges are waived if you surrender money under the Nursing Care and Terminal Condition Withdrawal Option or the Unemployment Waiver.

 

Keep in mind that surrenders may be taxable and, if made before age 59½, may be subject to a 10% federal penalty tax. For tax purposes, surrenders from nonqualified policies are considered to come from earnings first.

 

Life with Emergency CashSM Surrender Charge

 

If you select the Life with Emergency CashSM annuity payment option, then you can surrender your policy even after annuity payments have begun. However, there is a surrender charge during the first four years after the annuity commencement date. The following schedule shows the current surrender charge:

 

Number of Years

Since Annuity

Commencement Date


  

Surrender Charge

(as a percentage of

adjusted policy value)


 

0 – 1

   4 %

1 – 2

   3 %

2 – 3

   2 %

3 – 4

   1 %

more than 4

   0 %

 

Note carefully the following three things about this surrender charge:

 

  this surrender charge is measured from the annuity commencement date and not from the premium payment date;

 

  this surrender charge is a percentage of the adjusted policy value applied to the Life with Emergency CashSM annuity payment option, and not a percentage of premium; and

 

  under this payment option, there is no surrender charge free amount.

 

Excess Interest Adjustment

 

Surrenders and transfers from the fixed account may be subject to an excess interest adjustment. This adjustment could retroactively reduce the interest credited in the fixed account to the guaranteed minimum or increase the amount credited. This adjustment may also apply to amounts applied to an annuity payment option.

 

Mortality and Expense Risk Fees

 

We charge a fee as compensation for bearing certain mortality and expense risks under the policy. This fee is assessed daily based on the net asset value of each subaccount. Examples of such risks include a guarantee of annuity rates, the death benefit, certain expenses of the policy, and assuming the risk that the current charges will be insufficient in the future to cover costs of administering the policy. We may also pay distribution expenses out of this charge.

 

During the accumulation phase: for the Return of Premium Death Benefit, the daily mortality and expense risk fee is at an annual rate of 1.15%; for the Annual Step-Up Death Benefit, the daily

 

21


Table of Contents

mortality and expense risk fee is 0.20% higher, at an annual rate of 1.35%, and for the Double Enhanced Death Benefit, the mortality and expense risk fee is 0.50% higher, at an annual rate of 1.65%. During the income phase, the mortality and expense risk fee is at an annual rate of 1.10%.

 

If this charge does not cover our actual costs, we absorb the loss. Conversely, if the charge more than covers actual costs, the excess is added to our surplus. We expect to profit from this charge. We may use any profit for any proper purpose, including distribution expenses.

 

Administrative Charges

 

We deduct a daily administrative charge to cover the costs of administering the policy (including certain distribution-related expenses). This charge is equal to an annual rate of 0.15% of the daily net asset value of each subaccount during both the accumulation phase and the income phase.

 

In addition, during the accumulation phase, an annual service charge of $35 (but not more than 2% of the policy value) is charged on each policy anniversary and at surrender. The service charge is waived if your policy value or the sum of your premiums, less all partial surrenders, is at least $50,000.

 

Premium Taxes

 

Some states assess premium taxes on the premium payments you make. We currently do not deduct for these taxes at the time you make a premium payment. However, we will deduct the total amount of premium taxes, if any, from the policy value when:

 

  you begin receiving annuity payments;

 

  you surrender the policy; or

 

  a death benefit is paid.

 

Generally, premium taxes range from 0% to 3.50%, depending on the state.

 

Federal, State and Local Taxes

 

We may in the future deduct charges from the policy for any taxes we incur because of the policy. However, no deductions are being made at the present time.

 

Transfer Fee

 

You are allowed to make 12 free transfers per year before the annuity commencement date. If you make more than 12 transfers per year, we reserve the right to charge $10 for each additional transfer. Premium payments, Asset Rebalancing, and Dollar Cost Averaging transfers do not count as one of your 12 free transfers per year. All transfer requests made at the same time are treated as a single request.

 

Initial Payment Guarantee

 

If you elect the Initial Payment Guarantee at the time of annuitization, there is a rider fee currently at an annual rate of 1.25% of the daily net asset value. This fee may be higher or lower at the time you annuitize and elect the rider.

 

Additional Death Distribution

 

If you elect the Additional Death Distribution, there is an annual rider fee during the accumulation phase of 0.25% of the policy value. The rider fee will be deducted on each rider anniversary and upon termination of the rider (once we have received all necessary regulatory approvals) during the accumulation phase.

 

Portfolio Fees and Expenses

 

The value of the assets in each subaccount will reflect the fees and expenses paid by the underlying fund portfolios. The minimum and maximum fund expenses for the previous calendar year are found in the “Annuity Policy Fee Table” section of this prospectus. See the prospectuses for the underlying fund portfolios for more information.

6. ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY

 

During the accumulation phase, you can have access to the money in your policy in the following ways:

 

  by making a surrender (either a full or partial surrender); or

 

  by taking systematic payouts.

 

Surrenders

 

If you take a full surrender, you will receive your cash value.

 

If you want to take a partial surrender, in most cases it must be for at least $500. Unless you tell us otherwise, we will take the surrender from each of the investment choices in proportion to the policy value.

 

You may elect to take up to the greater of 10% of your premium payments or any gains in the policy free of surrender charges once each policy year. Remember that any surrender you take will reduce the policy value, and the amount of the death benefit. See Section 8, Death Benefit, for more details. A surrender may also reduce other benefits.

 

Surrenders may be subject to a surrender charge. Surrenders from the fixed account may also be subject to an excess interest adjustment. Income taxes, federal tax penalties and certain restrictions may apply to any surrenders you make.

 

Surrenders from qualified policies may be restricted or prohibited.

 

During the income phase, you will receive annuity payments under the annuity payment option you select; however, you generally may not take any other surrenders, either full or partial, unless you elect a Life with Emergency CashSM payment option.

 

Delay of Payment and Transfers

 

Payment of any amount due from the separate account for a surrender, a death benefit, or the death of the owner of a nonqualified policy, will generally occur within seven days from the date we receive all required information at our administrative and service office. We may defer such payment from the separate account if:

 

  the New York Stock Exchange is closed other than for usual weekends or holidays or trading on the Exchange is otherwise restricted;

 

  an emergency exists as defined by the SEC or the SEC requires that trading be restricted; or

 

  the SEC permits a delay for the protection of owners.

 

In addition, transfers of amounts from the subaccounts may be deferred under these circumstances.

 

Federal laws designed to counter terrorism and prevent money laundering by criminals might in certain circumstances require us to reject a premium payment and/or “freeze” a policy owner’s account. If these laws apply in a particular situation, we would not be allowed to pay any request for withdrawals, surrenders, or death benefits, make transfers, or continue making annuity payments absent instructions from the appropriate federal regulator. We may also be required to provide information about you and your policy to government agencies or departments.

 

Pursuant to the requirements of certain state laws, we reserve the right to defer payment of the cash value from the fixed account for up to six months. We may defer payment of any amount until your premium check has cleared your bank.

 

Excess Interest Adjustment

 

Money that you transfer out of or surrender from a guaranteed period option of the fixed account before the end of its guaranteed period (the number of years you specified the money would remain in

 

23


Table of Contents

the guaranteed period option) may be subject to an excess interest adjustment. At the time you request a transfer or surrender (either full or partial), if interest rates set by Transamerica have risen since the date of the initial guarantee, the excess interest adjustment will result in a lower cash value on surrender or transfer. However, if interest rates have fallen since the date of the initial guarantee, the excess interest adjustment will result in a higher cash value on surrender or transfer.

 

Any amount surrendered in excess of the cumulative interest credited is generally subject to an excess interest adjustment. An excess interest adjustment may also be made on amounts applied to an annuity payment option.

 

There will be no excess interest adjustment on any of the following:

 

  surrenders of cumulative interest credited;

 

  Nursing Care and Terminal Condition Withdrawal Option surrenders;

 

  Unemployment Waiver surrenders;

 

  surrenders to satisfy any minimum distribution requirements; and

 

  Systematic Payout Option payments, which do not exceed cumulative interest credited at the time of payment.

 

Please note that in these circumstances you will not receive a higher cash value if interest rates have fallen nor will you receive a lower cash value if interest rates have risen.

 

The excess interest adjustment may vary for certain policies and may not be applicable for all policies.

 

7. ANNUITY PAYMENTS (THE INCOME PHASE)

 

You choose the annuity commencement date. You can change this date by giving us written notice 30 days before the current annuity commencement date. The new annuity commencement date must be at least 30 days after we receive notice of the change. The latest annuity commencement date generally cannot be after the policy month following the month in which the annuitant attains age 95. The earliest annuity commencement date is 30 days after you purchase your policy.

 

Before the annuity commencement date, if the annuitant is alive, you may choose an annuity payment option or change your election. If the annuitant dies before the annuity commencement date, the death benefit is payable in a lump sum or under one of the annuity payment options (unless the surviving spouse continues the policy).

 

Unless you specify otherwise, the annuitant will receive the annuity payments. After the annuitant’s death, the beneficiary you designate at annuitization will receive any remaining guaranteed payments.

 

Annuity Payment Options

 

The policy provides several annuity payment options that are described below. You may choose any combination of annuity payment options. We will use your adjusted policy value to provide these annuity payments. If the adjusted policy value on the annuity commencement date is less than $2,000, we reserve the right to pay it in one lump sum in lieu of applying it under an annuity payment option. You can receive annuity payments monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. (We reserve the right to change the frequency if payments would be less than $50.)

 

Unless you choose to receive variable payments, the amount of each payment will be set on the annuity commencement date and will not change. You may, however, choose to receive variable payments. The dollar amount of the first variable payment will be determined in accordance with the annuity payment rates set forth in the applicable table contained in the policy. The dollar amount of additional variable payments will vary based on the investment performance of the subaccount(s). The dollar amount of each variable payment after the first may increase, decrease, or remain constant. If

 

24


Table of Contents

the actual investment performance (net of fees and expenses) exactly matched the assumed investment return of 5% at all times, the amount of each variable annuity payment would remain equal. If actual investment performance (net of fees and expenses) exceeds the assumed investment return, the amount of the variable annuity payments would increase. Conversely, if actual investment performance (net of fees and expenses) is lower than the assumed investment return, the amount of the variable annuity payments would decrease. Please note that these changes only occur annually under the Initial Payment Guarantee.

 

A charge for premium taxes and an excess interest adjustment may be made when annuity payments begin.

 

The annuity payment options are explained below. Options 1 and 2 are fixed only. Options 3 and 4 can be fixed or variable.

 

Payment Option 1—Income for a Specified Period. We will make level payments only for a fixed period. No funds will remain at the end of the period.

 

Payment Option 2—Income of a Specified Amount. Payments are made for any specified amount until the amount applied to this option, with interest, is exhausted. This will be a series of level payments followed by a smaller final payment.

 

Payment Option 3—Life Income. You may choose between:

 

  No Period Certain (fixed or variable)—Payments will be made only during the annuitant’s lifetime.

 

  10 Years Certain (fixed or variable)—Payments will be made for the longer of the annuitant’s lifetime or ten years.

 

  Guaranteed Return of Policy Proceeds (fixed only)—Payments will be made for the longer of the annuitant’s lifetime or until the total dollar amount of payments we made to you equals the amount applied to this option.

 

  Life with Emergency CashSM (fixed or variable)—Payments will be made during the annuitant’s lifetime. With the Life with Emergency CashSM feature, you are able to surrender all or a portion of the Life with Emergency CashSM benefit. The amount you surrender must be at least $2,500. We will provide you with a Life with Emergency CashSM benefit schedule that will assist you in estimating the amount you have available to surrender. A partial surrender will reduce all future payments pro rata. A surrender charge may apply and there may be tax consequences (consult a tax advisor before requesting a full or partial surrender). The maximum surrender charge is 4% of the annuitized amount (see “Expenses” for the surrender charge schedule). The Life with Emergency CashSM benefit will continue through age 100 of the annuitant. The Life with Emergency CashSM benefit is also a death benefit that is paid upon the death of the annuitant. (For qualified policies the death benefit ceases at the date the annuitant reaches the IRS age limitation.)

 

Payment Option 4—Joint and Survivor Annuity. You may choose between:

 

  No Period Certain (fixed or variable)—Payments are made during the joint lifetime of the annuitant and a joint annuitant of your selection. Payments will be made as long as either person is living.

 

 

Life with Emergency CashSM (fixed or variable)—Payments will be made during the joint lifetime of the annuitant and a joint annuitant of your selection. Payments will be made as long as either person is living. With the Life with Emergency CashSM feature, you are able to surrender all or a portion of the Life with Emergency CashSM benefit. The amount you surrender must be at least $2,500. We will provide you with a Life with Emergency CashSM benefit schedule that will assist you in estimating the amount you have available to surrender. A partial surrender will reduce all future payments pro rata. A surrender charge

 

25


Table of Contents
 

may apply and there may be tax consequences (consult a tax advisor before requesting a full or partial surrender). The maximum surrender charge is 4% of the annuitized amount (see “Expenses” for the surrender charge schedule). The Life with Emergency CashSM benefit will continue through age 100 of the surviving joint annuitant. The Life with Emergency CashSM benefit is also a death benefit that is paid upon the death of the surviving joint annuitant. (For qualified policies the death benefit ceases on the date the surviving joint annuitant reaches the IRS joint age limitation.) The death benefit is equal to the surrender value without any surrender charges

 

Other annuity payment options may be arranged by agreement with Transamerica. Certain annuity payment options may not be available for all policies.

 

NOTE CAREFULLY:

 

IF:

 

  you choose Life Income with No Period Certain or a Joint and Survivor Annuity with No Period Certain; and

 

  the annuitant dies before the due date of the second (third, fourth, etc.) annuity payment;

 

THEN:

 

  we may make only one (two, three, etc.) annuity payments.

 

IF:

 

  you choose Income for a Specified Period, Life Income with 10 years Certain, Life Income with Guaranteed Return of Policy Proceeds, or Income of a Specified Amount; and

 

  the person receiving payments dies prior to the end of the guaranteed period;

 

THEN:

 

  the remaining guaranteed payments will be continued to that person’s beneficiary, or their present value may be paid in a single sum.

 

However, IF:

 

  you choose Life with Emergency CashSM; and
  the annuitant dies before age 101;

 

THEN:

 

  a Life with Emergency CashSM death benefit will be paid.

 

We will not pay interest on amounts represented by uncashed annuity payment checks if the postal or other delivery service is unable to deliver checks to the payee’s address of record. The person receiving payments is responsible for keeping Transamerica informed of their current address.

 

8. DEATH BENEFIT

 

We will pay a death benefit to your beneficiary, under certain circumstances, if the annuitant dies during the accumulation phase. If there is a surviving owner(s) when the annuitant dies, the surviving owner(s) will receive the death benefit instead of the listed beneficiary. The person receiving the death benefit may choose an annuity payment option, or may choose to receive a lump sum.

 

When We Pay A Death Benefit

 

We will pay a death benefit IF:

 

  you are both the annuitant and sole owner of the policy; and

 

  you die before the annuity commencement date.

 

We will pay a death benefit to you (owner) IF:

 

  you are not the annuitant; and

 

  the annuitant dies before the annuity commencement date.`

 

If the only person receiving the death benefit is the surviving spouse, then he or she may elect to continue the policy as the new annuitant and owner, instead of receiving the death benefit. All current surrender charges will be waived.

 

26


Table of Contents

When We Do Not Pay A Death Benefit

 

We will not pay a death benefit IF:

 

  you are not the annuitant; and

 

  you die prior to the annuity commencement date.

 

Please note the new owner (unless it is the deceased owner’s spouse) must generally surrender the policy within five years of your death for the adjusted policy value minus any applicable rider fees.

 

Distribution requirements apply to the policy value upon the death of any owner. These requirements are detailed in the SAI.

 

Deaths After the Annuity Commencement Date

 

The death benefit payable, if any, on or after the annuity commencement date depends on the annuity payment option selected.

 

IF:

 

  you are not the annuitant; and

 

  you die on or after the annuity commencement date; and

 

  the entire interest in the policy has not been paid;

 

THEN:

 

  the remaining portion of such interest in the policy will continue to be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution being used as of the date of your death.

 

IF:

 

  annuity payments are being made under the Life with Emergency CashSM; and

 

  the annuitant dies before age 101 (or earlier, if a qualified policy);

 

THEN:

 

  a Life with Emergency CashSM death benefit will be paid.

 

Succession of Ownership

 

If any owner dies during the accumulation phase, the person or entity first listed below who is alive or in existence on the date of that death will become the new owner:

 

  any surviving owner;

 

  primary beneficiary;

 

  contingent beneficiary; or

 

  owner’s estate.

 

Amount of Death Benefit

 

Death benefit provisions may differ from state to state. The death benefit may be paid as a lump sum or as annuity payments. The amount of the death benefit depends on the guaranteed minimum death benefit option you chose when you bought the policy. The death benefit will generally be the greatest of:

 

  policy value on the date we receive the required information at our administrative and service office; or

 

  cash value on the date we receive the required information at our administrative and service office (this will be more than the policy value if there is a positive excess interest adjustment that exceeds the surrender charge); or

 

  guaranteed minimum death benefit (discussed below), plus premium payments, less gross partial surrenders from the date of death to the date the death benefit is paid.

 

Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit

 

NOTE: The following generally applies, depending on the state of issue, to policies issued after the date of this prospectus. For other policies, see Appendix C.

 

On the policy application, you generally may choose one of the guaranteed minimum death benefit options listed below (age limitations may apply).

 

27


Table of Contents

After the policy is issued, you cannot make an election and the death benefit cannot be changed.

 

A. Double Enhanced Death Benefit

 

The death benefit under this option is the greater of 1 or 2 below:

 

  1. The 6% Annually Compounding through age 80 Death Benefit is:

 

  the total premium payments; less

 

  any adjusted partial surrenders;

 

  accumulated at an effective annual rate of 6% from the premium payment date or surrender date to the earlier of the annuitant’s date of death or the annuitant’s 81st birthday.

 

  2. The Monthly Step-Up through age 80 Death Benefit is equal to:

 

  the largest policy value on the policy date or on any monthly anniversary prior to the earlier of the annuitant’s date of death or the annuitant’s 81st birthday; plus

 

  any premium payments subsequent to the date of any monthly anniversary with the largest policy value; minus

 

  any adjusted partial surrenders subsequent to the date of the monthly anniversary with the largest policy value.

 

This benefit is not available if the owner or annuitant is age 71 or older on the policy date. There is an extra charge for this death benefit of 0.50% annually for a total mortality and expense risk fee of 1.65%.

 

B. Annual Step-Up Death Benefit

 

On each policy anniversary before your 81st birthday, a new “stepped-up” death benefit is determined and becomes the guaranteed minimum death benefit for that policy year. The death benefit is equal to:

 

  the largest policy value on the policy date or on any policy anniversary before the earlier of the date of the annuitant’s death or the annuitant’s 81st birthday; plus

 

  any premium payments since that date; minus

 

  any adjusted partial surrenders since that date.

 

The Annual Step-Up Death Benefit is not available if the annuitant is 76 or older on the policy date. There is an extra charge for this death benefit of 0.20% annually for a total mortality and expense risk fee of 1.35%.

 

C. Return of Premium Death Benefit

 

The Return of Premium Death Benefit is:

 

  total premium payments; less

 

  any adjusted partial surrenders as of the date of death.

 

The Return of Premium Death Benefit will be in effect if you do not choose one of the other death benefit options on the policy application. The charges are lower for this option.

 

The Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit may vary for certain policies and may not be available for all policies.

 

Adjusted Partial Surrender

 

When you request a partial surrender, your guaranteed minimum death benefit will be reduced by an amount called the adjusted partial surrender. Under certain circumstances, the adjusted partial surrender may be more than the dollar amount of your surrender request. This will generally be the case if the guaranteed minimum death benefit exceeds the policy value at the time of surrender. It is also possible that if a death benefit is paid after you have made a partial surrender, then the total amount paid could be less than the total premium payments. We have included a detailed explanation

 

28


Table of Contents

of this adjustment in the SAI. This is referred to as “adjusted partial surrender” in your policy.

 

9. TAXES

 

NOTE: We have prepared the following information on federal income taxes as a general discussion of the subject. It is not intended as tax advice to any individual. You should consult your own tax adviser about your own circumstances. We have included an additional discussion regarding taxes in the SAI.

 

Annuity Policies in General

 

Deferred annuity policies are a way of setting aside money for future needs like retirement. Congress recognized how important saving for retirement is and provided special rules in the Internal Revenue Code for annuities.

 

Simply stated, these rules generally provide individuals will not be taxed on the earnings, if any, on the money held in an annuity policy until taken out. This is referred to as tax deferral. When a non-natural person (e.g., corporation or certain other entities other than tax-qualified trusts) owns a nonqualified policy, the policy will generally not be treated as an annuity for tax purposes.

 

There are different rules as to how you will be taxed depending on how you take the money out and the type of policy—qualified or nonqualified.

 

You will generally not be taxed on increases in the value of your policy until a distribution occurs (either as a surrender or as annuity payments).

 

Qualified and Nonqualified Policies

 

If you purchase the policy under an individual retirement annuity, a 403(b) plan, a pension plan, or specially sponsored program, your policy is referred to as a qualified policy.

 

Qualified policies are issued in connection with the following:

 

  Individual Retirement Annuity (IRA): A traditional IRA allows individuals to make contributions, which may be deductible, to the policy. A Roth IRA also allows individuals to make contributions to the policy, but it does not allow a deduction for contributions, and distributions may be tax-free if the owner meets certain rules.

 

  Tax-Sheltered Annuity (403(b) Plan): A 403(b) Plan may be made available to employees of certain public school systems and tax-exempt organizations and permits contributions to the policy on a pre-tax basis.

 

  Corporate Pension and Profit-Sharing and H.R. 10 Plan: Employers and self-employed individuals can establish pension or profit-sharing plans for their employees or themselves and make contributions to the policy on a pre-tax basis.

 

  Deferred Compensation Plan (457 Plan): Certain governmental and tax-exempt organizations can establish a plan to defer compensation on behalf of their employees through contributions to the policy.

 

There is no additional tax deferral benefit derived from placing qualified funds into a variable annuity. Features other than tax deferral should be considered in the purchase of a qualified policy. There are limits on the amount of contributions you can make to a qualified policy. Other restrictions may apply including terms of the plan in which you participate. The policy may contain death benefit features that in some cases may exceed the greater of the premium payments or the policy value. The death benefit could be characterized as an incidental benefit, the amount of which is limited in any pension or profit-sharing plan or 403(b) plan. Because the death benefit may exceed this limitation, anyone using the policy in connection with such plans should consult their tax adviser. The Internal Revenue Service has not reviewed the policy for qualification as an IRA, and has not addressed in a ruling of general applicability

 

29


Table of Contents

whether the death benefit options and riders available, with the policy, if any, comport with IRA qualification requirements.

 

If you purchase the policy as an individual and not under an individual retirement annuity, 403(b) plan, 457 plan, or pension or profit sharing plan, your policy is referred to as a nonqualified policy.

 

Surrenders—Qualified Policies

 

The information herein describing the taxation of nonqualified policies does not apply to qualified policies.

 

There are special rules that govern qualified policies. Generally, these rules restrict:

 

  the amount that can be contributed to the policy during any year;

 

  the time when amounts can be paid from the policy; and

 

  the amount of any death benefit that may be allowed.

 

In addition, a penalty tax may be assessed on amounts surrendered from the policy prior to the date you reach age 59½, unless you meet one of the exceptions to this rule. You may also be required to begin taking minimum distributions from the policy by a certain date. The terms of the plan may limit the rights otherwise available to you under the policy. We have provided more information in the SAI.

 

You should consult your legal counsel or tax adviser if you are considering purchasing a policy for use with any qualified retirement plan or arrangement.

 

Surrenders—403(b) Policies

 

The Internal Revenue Code limits partial withdrawals and surrenders from certain 403(b) policies. Partial withdrawals and surrenders can generally only be made when an owner:

 

  reaches age 59½;

 

  leaves his/her job;

 

  dies;

 

  becomes disabled (as that term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code); or

 

  declares hardship. However, in the case of hardship, the owner can only surrender the premium payments and not any earnings.

 

Defaulted loans from Code Section 403(b) arrangements, and pledges and assignments of qualified policies generally are taxed in the same manner as surrenders from such policies. Please refer to the SAI for further information applicable to distributions from 403(b) policies.

 

Surrenders—Nonqualified Policies

 

If you take a partial withdrawal or surrender (including systematic payouts and payouts under an optional feature, if any) from a nonqualified policy before the annuity commencement date, the Internal Revenue Code treats that surrender as first coming from earnings and then from your premium payments. When you make a surrender you are taxed on the amount of the surrender that is earnings. If you make a surrender, you are generally taxed on the amount that your surrender proceeds exceeds the “investment in the contract,” which is generally your premiums paid (adjusted for any prior surrenders or portions thereof that were not taxable). Loans, pledges, and assignments are taxed in the same manner as partial withdrawals and surrenders. Pledges and assignments are taxed in the same manner as partial withdrawals. Different rules apply for annuity payments. See “Annuity Payments” below.

 

The Internal Revenue Code also provides that surrendered earnings may be subject to a penalty tax. The amount of the penalty tax is equal to 10% of the amount that is includable in income. Some surrenders will be exempt from the penalty tax. They include any amounts:

 

  paid on or after the taxpayer reaches age 59½;

 

  paid after an owner dies;

 

30


Table of Contents
  paid if the taxpayer becomes totally disabled (as that term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code);

 

  paid in a series of substantially equal payments made annually (or more frequently) under a lifetime annuity;

 

  paid under an immediate annuity; or

 

  which come from premium payments made prior to August 14, 1982.

 

All nonqualified deferred annuity policies that are issued by us (or our affiliates) to the same owner during any calendar year are treated as one annuity for purposes of determining the amount includable in the owner’s income when a taxable distribution occurs.

 

Taxation of Death Benefit Proceeds

 

Amounts may be distributed from the policy because of the death of the annuitant. Generally, such amounts should be includable in the income of the recipient:

 

  if distributed in a lump sum, these amounts are taxed in the same manner as a surrender; or

 

  if distributed under an annuity payment option, these amounts are taxed in the same manner as annuity payments.

 

Annuity Payments

 

Although the tax consequences may vary depending on the annuity payment option you select, in general, for nonqualified and certain qualified policies, only a portion of the annuity payments you receive will be includable in your gross income.

 

In general, the excludable portion of each annuity payment you receive will be determined as follows:

 

  Fixed payments—by dividing the “investment in the contract” on the annuity commencement date by the total expected value of the annuity payments for the term of the payments. This is the percentage of each annuity payment that is excludable.

 

  Variable payments—by dividing the “investment in the contract” on the annuity commencement date by the total number of expected periodic payments. This is the amount of each annuity payment that is excludable.

 

The remainder of each annuity payment is includable in gross income. Once the “investment in the contract” has been fully recovered, the full amount of any additional annuity payments is includable in gross income and fixed as ordinary income.

 

If you select more than one annuity payment option, special rules govern the allocation of the policy’s entire “investment in the contract” to each such option, for purposes of determining the excludable amount of each payment received under that option. We advise you to consult a competent tax adviser as to the potential tax effects of allocating amounts to any particular annuity payment option.

 

If, after the annuity commencement date, annuity payments stop because an annuitant died, the excess (if any) of the “investment in the contract” as of the annuity commencement date over the aggregate amount of annuity payments received that was excluded from gross income may possibly be allowable as a deduction in your tax return.

 

You should consult a tax advisor before electing the Initial Payment Guarantee or a feature with stabilized payments.

 

Diversification and Distribution Requirements

 

The Internal Revenue Code provides that the underlying investments for a variable annuity must satisfy certain diversification requirements in order to be treated as an annuity. The policy must also meet certain distribution requirements at the death of an owner in order to be treated as an annuity. These diversification and distribution requirements are discussed in the SAI. We may modify the policy to attempt to maintain favorable tax treatment.

Table of Contents

Annuity Contracts Purchased by Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Corporations

 

The discussion above provided general information (but not tax advice) regarding U.S. federal income tax consequences to annuity owners that are U.S. persons. Taxable distributions made to owners who are not U.S. persons will generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax withholding at a 30% rate, unless a lower treaty rate applies. In addition, distributions may be subject to state and/or municipal taxes and taxes that may be imposed by the owner’s country of citizenship or residence. Prospective foreign owners are advised to consult with a qualified tax adviser regarding U.S., state, and foreign taxation for any annuity policy purchase.

 

Transfers, Assignments or Exchanges of Policies

 

A transfer of ownership or assignment of a policy, the designation of an annuitant or payee or other beneficiary who is not also the owner, the selection of certain annuity commencement dates, or a change of annuitant, may result in certain income or gift tax consequences to the owner that are beyond the scope of this discussion. An owner contemplating any such transfer, assignment, selection, or change should contact a competent tax adviser with respect to the potential tax effects of such a transaction.

 

Possible Tax Law Changes

 

Although the likelihood of legislative changes is uncertain, there is always the possibility that the tax treatment of the policy could change by legislation or otherwise. You should consult a tax adviser with respect to legal developments and their effect on the policy.

 

We have the right to modify the policy to meet the regulations of any applicable laws or regulations, including legislative changes that could otherwise diminish the favorable tax treatment that annuity policy owners currently receive.

 

Separate Account Charges

 

It is possible that the Internal Revenue Service may take a position that fees for certain optional benefits (e.g., death benefits other than the Return of Premium death benefit) are deemed to be taxable distributions to you. In particular, the Internal Revenue Service may treat fees associated with certain optional benefits as a taxable surrender, which might also be subject to a tax penalty if the surrender occurs prior to age 59½. Although we do not believe that the fees associated with any optional benefit provided under the policy should be treated as taxable surrenders, the tax rules associated with these benefits are unclear, and we advise that you consult your tax advisor prior to selecting any optional benefit under the policy.

 

10. ADDITIONAL FEATURES

 

Systematic Payout Option

 

You can select at any time (during the accumulation phase) to receive regular payments from your policy by using the Systematic Payout Option. Under this option, you can receive the greater of (1) or (2), divided by the number of payouts made per year, where:

 

(1) up to 10% of your premium payments; or

 

(2) is any gains in the policy.

 

This amount may be taken free of surrender charges. Any payment in excess of the cumulative interest credited at the time of the payment may be subject to an excess interest adjustment.

 

Payments can be made monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually and will not begin until one payment period from the date we receive your instructions. Each payment must be at least $50. Monthly and quarterly payments must be made by electronic funds transfer directly to your checking or savings account.

Table of Contents

If you request an additional surrender while a Systematic Payout Option is in effect, the Systematic Payout Option will terminate.

 

There is no charge for this benefit.

 

Income Benefit Programs

 

The Family Income Protector and Managed Annuity Programs are no longer available for new sales, but if you have previously elected one of these benefits you can still upgrade. If you upgrade your minimum annuitization value or minimum income base, you will generally receive the Managed Annuity Program II.

 

Initial Payment Guarantee

 

You may only elect to purchase the Initial Payment Guarantee at the time you annuitize your policy. You cannot delete this payment guarantee (or eliminate the charge for it) after you have elected it. The guarantee only applies to variable annuity payments. There is an additional charge for this guarantee.

 

The Initial Payment Guarantee does not establish or guarantee the performance of any subaccount.

 

With the Initial Payment Guarantee, you receive stabilized annuity payments that are guaranteed to never be less than a percentage of the initial payment. The guaranteed percentage is subject to change from time to time; however once you annuitize and elect the rider, the guaranteed percentage will not change during the life of the rider. Contact us for the current guaranteed percentage.

 

Rider Fee. There is a charge for the Initial Payment Guarantee, which is in addition to the base product mortality and expense risk fee and administrative charge. This fee is reflected in the amount of the annuity payments that you receive if you select the Initial Payment Guarantee. It is reflected in the calculation of the annuity unit values.

 

The Initial Payment Guarantee fee is currently equal to an annual rate of 1.25% of the daily net asset value in the subaccounts. You pay whatever the fee is when you annuitize.

 

Other. The Initial Payment Guarantee uses a 5% assumed investment return to calculate your annuity payments. This means that the dollar amount of the annuity payments will remain level if the investment return (net of fees and expenses) exactly equals 5%. The payments will increase if actual investment performance (net of fees and expenses) exceeds the assumed investment return, and decrease if actual performance is below the assumed investment return (but not below the guaranteed level).

 

Termination. The Initial Payment Guarantee is irrevocable.

 

The Initial Payment Guarantee may vary for certain policies and may not be available for all policies.

 

Additional Death Distribution

 

The optional “Additional Death Distribution” pays an additional amount (based on earnings since the rider was issued) when a death benefit is payable under your policy, in certain circumstances. The Additional Death Distribution is only available for issue ages through age 80.

 

Additional Death Distribution Amount. The Additional Death Distribution is only payable if you elected the rider prior to the death triggering the payment of the policy death benefit and a death benefit is payable under the policy. The Additional Death Distribution is equal to:

 

  the Additional Death Distribution factor (see below); multiplied by

 

  the rider earnings on the date the death benefit is calculated.

 

Rider earnings equal:

 

  the policy value on the date the death benefit is determined; minus

 

33


Table of Contents
  policy value on the rider date; minus

 

  premium payments after the rider date; plus

 

  surrenders after the rider date that exceed the rider earnings on the date of the surrender.

 

No benefit is payable under the Additional Death Distribution if there are no rider earnings on the date the death benefit is calculated.

 

If you purchase your policy as part of a 1035 exchange or add the Additional Death Distribution after you purchase the policy, rider earnings do not include any gains before the 1035 exchange or the date the Additional Death Distribution is added to your policy.

 

The Additional Death Distribution factor is currently 40% for issue ages under 71 and 25% for issue ages 71-80.

 

No benefit is paid under the rider unless (a) the rider is in force, (b) a death benefit is payable on the policy, and (c) there are rider earnings when the death benefit is calculated.

 

For purposes of computing taxable gains, both the death benefit payable under the policy and the Additional Death Distribution will be considered.

 

Please see the SAI for an example which illustrates the Additional Death Distribution payable as well as the effect of a partial surrender on the Additional Death Distribution.

 

Spousal Continuation. If a spouse, as the new owner of the policy, elects to continue the policy instead of receiving a death benefit and Additional Death Distribution, the spouse will receive a one-time policy value increase equal to the Additional Death Distribution. At this time the rider will terminate. The spouse will have the option of immediately re-electing the rider as long as he or she is under the age of 80.

 

Rider Fee. A rider fee, 0.25% of the policy value, is deducted annually on each rider anniversary prior to annuitization. We will also deduct this fee upon full surrender of the policy or other termination of the rider (once we have received all necessary regulatory approvals). The rider fee is deducted pro rata from each investment choice. The fee is deducted even during periods when the Additional Death Distribution would not pay any benefit (because there are no rider earnings).

 

Termination. The rider will remain in effect until:

 

  you cancel it by notifying our administrative and service office in writing,

 

  the policy is annuitized or surrendered, or

 

  the Additional Death Distribution is paid or added to the policy value under a spousal continuation.

 

Once terminated, the Additional Death Distribution may be re-elected; however, a new rider will be issued and the additional death benefit will be re-determined. Please note that if the rider is terminated and then re-elected, it will only cover gains, if any, since it was re-elected and the terms of the new rider may be different than the terminated rider.

 

The tax consequences associated with this rider are not clear. This rider may violate the requirements of certain qualified plans and of IRAs. Consult a tax advisor before electing this rider for any qualified plan or IRA.

 

The Additional Death Distribution may vary for certain policies and may not be available for all policies.

 

Nursing Care and Terminal Condition Withdrawal Option

 

No surrender charges or excess interest adjustment will apply if you make a surrender ($1,000 minimum), under certain circumstances, because you or your spouse has been:

 

  confined in a hospital or nursing facility for 30 days in a row; or

 

  diagnosed with a terminal condition (usually a life expectancy of 12 months or less).

 

34


Table of Contents

This benefit is also available to the annuitant or annuitant’s spouse if the owner is not a natural person.

 

You may exercise this benefit at any time (during the accumulation phase). There is no charge for this benefit.

 

This benefit may vary for certain policies and may not be available for all policies.

 

Unemployment Waiver

 

No surrender charges or excess interest adjustment will apply to surrenders after you or your spouse become unemployed in certain circumstances, because you were terminated, laid off, or otherwise lost your job involuntarily. In order to qualify, you (or your spouse, whichever is applicable) must have been:

 

  employed full time for at least two years prior to becoming unemployed;

 

  employed full time on the policy date;

 

  unemployed for at least 60 days in a row at the time of surrender;

 

  must have a minimum cash value at the time of surrender of $5,000; and

 

  you (or your spouse) must be receiving unemployment benefits.

 

You must provide written proof from your State’s Department of Labor, which verifies that you qualify for and are receiving unemployment benefits at the time of surrender.

 

You may select this benefit at any time (during the accumulation phase) and there is no charge for this benefit.

 

This benefit is also available to the annuitant or annuitant’s spouse if the owner is not a natural person.

 

This benefit may vary for certain policies and may not be available for all policies.

 

Telephone Transactions

 

You may generally make transfers and change the allocation of additional premium payments by telephone IF:

 

  you select the “Telephone Transfer/Reallocation Authorization” box in the policy application or enrollment information; or

 

  you later complete an authorization form.

 

You will be required to provide certain information for identification purposes when requesting a transaction by telephone and we may record your telephone call. We may also require written confirmation of your request. We will not be liable for following telephone requests that we believe are genuine. We reserve the right to revoke your telephone transaction privileges at any time without revoking all owners’ telephone transfer privileges.

 

Telephone requests must be received while the New York Stock Exchange is open to get same-day pricing of the transaction. We may discontinue this option at any time.

 

We may deny the telephone transaction privileges to market timers.

 

We cannot guarantee that telephone transactions will always be available. For example, our offices may be closed during severe circumstances or other emergencies. There may be interruptions in service beyond our control, and if the volume of calls is unusually high, we might not have anyone available, or lines available, to take your call.

 

Dollar Cost Averaging Program

 

During the accumulation phase, you may instruct us to automatically make transfers into one or more variable subaccounts in accordance with your allocation instructions. This is known as Dollar Cost Averaging. While Dollar Cost Averaging buys more accumulation units when prices are low and fewer accumulation units when prices are high,

 

35


Table of Contents

it does not guarantee profits or assure that you will not experience a loss.

 

There are two Dollar Cost Averaging programs available under your policy:

 

  Traditional—You may specify the dollar amount to be transferred or the number of transfers. Transfers will begin as soon as the program is started.

 

  Special—You may elect either a six or twelve month program. Transfers will begin as soon as the program is started. You cannot transfer from another investment option into a Special Dollar Cost Averaging program.

 

A minimum of $500 per transfer is required. A minimum of $3,000 is required to start a 6-month program and $6,000 is required to start a 12-month program. The minimum number of transfers is 6 monthly and 4 quarterly, and the maximum is 24 monthly and 8 quarterly.

 

You can elect to transfer from one of the fixed or variable sources listed on the Dollar Cost Averaging election form (only fixed sources are available for special Dollar Cost Averaging programs).

 

A Dollar Cost Averaging program will begin once we receive the premium. If we receive additional premium payments while a Dollar Cost Averaging program is running, absent new instructions to the contrary, the amount of the Dollar Cost Averaging transfers will increase, but the length of the Dollar Cost Averaging program will not.

 

NOTE CAREFULLY:

 

IF:

 

  we do not receive all necessary information to begin an initial Dollar Cost Averaging program within 30 days of allocating the minimum required amount to a Dollar Cost Averaging program; or

 

  we do not receive the minimum required amount to begin an initial Dollar Cost Averaging program within 30 days of allocating an insufficient amount;

 

THEN:

 

  any amount in a fixed source will be transferred to the money market investment option; and

 

  any amount in a variable source will remain in that variable investment option; and

 

  new instructions will be required to begin a Dollar Cost Averaging program.

 

IF:

 

  we receive additional premium payments after a Dollar Cost Averaging program is completed and the additional premium meets the minimum requirements to start a Dollar Cost Averaging program;

 

THEN:

 

  we will, absent new instructions to the contrary, start a new Dollar Cost Averaging program using the previous instructions.

 

IF:

 

  we receive additional premium payments after a Dollar Cost Averaging program is completed, and the additional premium does not meet the minimum requirements to start a Dollar Cost Averaging program;

 

THEN:

 

  we will, absent new instructions to the contrary, allocate the additional premium as identified in the previous Dollar Cost Averaging program.

 

IF:

 

  you discontinue a Dollar Cost Averaging program before its completion;

 

THEN:

 

  we will, absent new instructions to the contrary, transfer any remaining balance directly into the subaccounts in the Dollar Cost Averaging instructions.

 

You should consider your ability to continue a Dollar Cost Averaging program during all economic conditions.

 

36


Table of Contents

There is no charge for this benefit.

 

The Dollar Cost Averaging Program may vary for certain policies and may not be available for all policies. See your policy for availability of the fixed account options.

 

Asset Rebalancing

 

During the accumulation phase you can instruct us to automatically rebalance the amounts in your subaccounts to maintain your desired asset allocation. This feature is called Asset Rebalancing and can be started and stopped at any time free of charge. However, we will not rebalance if you are in the Dollar Cost Averaging program or if any other transfer is requested. If a transfer is requested, we will honor the requested transfer and discontinue Asset Rebalancing. New instructions are required to start Asset Rebalancing. Asset Rebalancing ignores amounts in the fixed account. You can choose to rebalance monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually.

 

11. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Ownership

 

You, as owner of the policy, exercise all rights under the policy. You can change the owner at any time by notifying us in writing. An ownership change may be a taxable event.

 

Assignment

 

You can also assign the policy any time during your lifetime. We will not be bound by the assignment until we receive written notice of the assignment at our administrative and service office. We will not be liable for any payment or other action we take in accordance with the policy before we receive notice of the assignment. There may be limitations on your ability to assign a qualified policy. An assignment may have tax consequences.

 

Transamerica Life Insurance Company

 

Transamerica Life Insurance Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Iowa on April 19, 1961 as NN Investors Life Insurance Company, Inc. It is engaged in the sale of life and health insurance and annuity policies. Transamerica is a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of AEGON USA, Inc. which conducts most of its operations through subsidiary companies engaged in the insurance business or in providing non-insurance financial services. All of the stock of AEGON USA, Inc. is indirectly owned by AEGON N.V. of The Netherlands, the securities of which are publicly traded. AEGON N.V., a holding company, conducts its business through subsidiary companies engaged primarily in the insurance business. Transamerica is licensed in all states except New York, the District of Columbia and Guam.

 

All obligations arising under the policies, including the promise to make annuity payments, are general corporate obligations of Transamerica.

 

The Separate Account

 

Transamerica established a separate account, called Separate Account VA B, under the laws of the State of Iowa on January 19, 1990. The separate account receives and invests the premium payments that are allocated to it for investment in shares of the underlying fund portfolios.

 

The separate account is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act. However, the SEC does not supervise the management, the investment practices, or the policies of the separate account or Transamerica. Income, gains and losses (whether or not realized), from assets allocated to the separate account are, in accordance with the policies, credited to or charged against the separate account without regard to Transamerica’s other income, gains or losses.

 

The assets of the separate account are held in Transamerica’s name on behalf of the separate

 

37


Table of Contents

account and belong to Transamerica. However, those assets that underlie the policies are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business Transamerica may conduct. The separate account may include other subaccounts that are not available under these policies.

 

Mixed and Shared Funding

 

Before making a decision concerning the allocation of premium payments to a particular subaccount, please read the prospectuses for the underlying fund portfolios. The underlying fund portfolios are not limited to selling their shares to this separate account and can accept investments from any separate account or qualified retirement plan. Since the underlying fund portfolios are available to registered separate accounts offering variable annuity products of Transamerica, as well as variable annuity and variable life products of other insurance companies, and qualified retirement plans, there is a possibility that a material conflict may arise between the interests of this separate account and one or more of the other separate accounts of another participating insurance company. In the event of a material conflict, the affected insurance companies, including Transamerica, agree to take any necessary steps to resolve the matter. This may include removing their separate accounts from the underlying fund portfolios. See the underlying fund portfolios’ prospectuses for more details.

 

Exchanges and Reinstatements

 

You can generally exchange one annuity policy for another in a “tax-free exchange” under Section 1035 of the Internal Revenue Code. Before making an exchange, you should compare both annuities carefully. Remember that if you exchange another annuity for the one described in this prospectus, then you may pay a surrender charge on the other annuity and there will be a new surrender charge period and other charges may be higher (or lower) and the benefits under this annuity may be different. You should not exchange another annuity for this one unless you determine, after knowing all the facts, that the exchange is in your best interest and not just better for the person trying to sell you this policy (that person will generally earn a commission if you buy this policy through an exchange or otherwise).

 

You may surrender your policy and transfer your money directly to another life insurance company (sometimes referred to as a 1035 Exchange or a trustee-to-trustee transfer). You may also ask us to reinstate your policy after such a transfer by returning the same total dollar amount of funds to the applicable investment choices. The dollar amount will be used to purchase new accumulation units at the then current price. Because of changes in market value, your new accumulation units may be worth more or less than the units you previously owned. We recommend that you consult a tax professional to explain the possible tax consequences of exchanges and/or reinstatements.

 

Voting Rights

 

Transamerica will vote all shares of the underlying fund portfolios held in the separate account in accordance with instructions we receive from you and other owners that have voting interests in the portfolios. We will send you and other owners written requests for instructions on how to vote those shares. When we receive those instructions, we will vote all of the shares in proportion to those instructions. If, however, we determine that we are permitted to vote the shares in our own right, we may do so.

 

Each person having a voting interest will receive proxy material, reports, and other materials relating to the appropriate portfolio.

 

Distributor of the Policies

 

We have entered into a distribution agreement with our affiliate, AFSG Securities Corporation (“AFSG”), for the distribution and sales of the policies. The policies are offered to the public

 

38


Table of Contents

through broker-dealers (“selling firms”) that are licensed under the federal securities laws and state insurance laws, and that sell the policies through written agreements with AFSG. We pay commissions to AFSG for sales of the polices by the selling firms. We also may pay compensation to financial institutions for their services in connection with the sale and servicing of the policies.

 

Commissions of up to 7% of premium payments plus an annual continuing fee based on policy values will be paid to the selling firms. These commissions are not deducted from premium payments.

 

To the extent permitted by NASD rules, promotional incentives or payments may also be provided to selling firms based on sales volumes, the assumption of wholesaling functions, or other sales-related criteria. Other payments may be made for other services that do not directly involve the sale of the policies. These services may include the recruitment and training of personnel, production of promotional literature, and similar services. We and/or AFSG may pay selling firms additional amounts for: (1) “preferred product” treatment of the policies in their marketing programs, which may include marketing services and increased access to their sales representatives; (2) sales promotions relating to the policies; (3) costs associated with sales conferences and educational seminars for their sales representatives; and (4) other sales expenses incurred by them and their representatives. We and/or AFSG may make payments to selling firms based on aggregate sales of our variable insurance contracts (including the policies) or persistency standards.

 

The selling firms may pass on to their sales representatives a portion of the payments made to the selling firms in accordance with their respective internal compensation programs. Those programs may also include other types of cash and non-cash compensation and other benefits. Ask your sales representative for further information about what your sales representative and the selling firm for which he or she works may receive in connection with your purchase of a policy.

 

We intend to recoup commissions and other sales expenses primarily, but not exclusively, through:

 

  the administrative charge;

 

  the surrender charge;

 

  the mortality and expense risk fee;

 

  revenues, if any, that we receive from the underlying fund portfolios or their managers; and

 

  investment earnings on amounts allocated to the fixed account.

 

Other incentives or payments, like commissions, are not charged to the policy owners or the separate account.

 

Pending regulatory approvals, we intend to distribute the policies in all states, except New York, and in certain possessions and territories.

 

IMSA

 

We are a member of the Insurance Marketplace Standards Association (IMSA). IMSA is an independent, voluntary organization of life insurance companies. It promotes high ethical standards in the sales and advertising of individual life insurance, long-term care insurance, and annuity products. Through its Principles and Code of Ethical Market Conduct, IMSA encourages its member companies to develop and implement policies and procedures to promote sound market practices. Companies must undergo a rigorous self and independent assessment of their practices to become a member of IMSA. The IMSA logo in our sales literature shows our ongoing commitment to these standards. You may find more information about IMSA and its ethical standards at www.imsaethics.org in the “Consumer” section or by contacting IMSA at: 202-624-2121.

Legal Proceedings

 

There are no legal proceedings to which the separate account is a party or to which the assets of the separate account are subject. Transamerica, like other life insurance companies, is involved in lawsuits. In some class action and other lawsuits involving other insurers, substantial damages have been sought and/or material settlement payments have been made. Although the outcome of any litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, Transamerica believes that at the present time there are no pending or threatened lawsuits that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse impact on the separate account, on the ability of AFSG Securities Corporation, to perform under its principal underwriting agreement, or on the ability of Transamerica to meet its obligations under the policy.

APPENDIX B

 

HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE DATA

 

Standard Performance Data

 

Transamerica may advertise historical yields and total returns for the subaccounts of the separate account. In addition, Transamerica may advertise the effective yield of the subaccount investing in the Transamerica Money Market Portfolio (the “Transamerica Money Market Subaccount”). These figures are calculated according to standardized methods prescribed by the SEC. They are based on historical earnings and are not intended to indicate future performance.

 

Transamerica Money Market Subaccount. The yield of the Transamerica Money Market Subaccount for a policy refers to the annualized income generated by an investment under a policy in the subaccount over a specified seven-day period. The yield is calculated by assuming that the income generated for that seven-day period is generated each seven-day period over a 52-week period and is shown as a percentage of the investment. The effective yield is calculated similarly but, when annualized, the income earned by an investment under a policy in the subaccount is assumed to be reinvested. The effective yield will be slightly higher than the yield because of the compounding effect of this assumed reinvestment.

 

Other Subaccounts. The yield of a subaccount (other than the Transamerica Money Market Subaccount) for a policy refers to the annualized income generated by an investment under a policy in the subaccount over a specified thirty-day period. The yield is calculated by assuming that the income generated by the investment during that thirty-day period is generated each thirty-day period over a 12-month period and is shown as a percentage of the investment.

 

The total return of a subaccount refers to return quotations assuming an investment under a policy has been held in the subaccount for various periods of time including a period measured from the date the subaccount commenced operations. When a subaccount has been in operation for one, five, and ten years, respectively, the total return for these periods will be provided. The total return quotations for a subaccount will represent the average annual compounded rates of return that equate an initial investment of $1,000 in the subaccount to the redemption value of that investment as of the last day of each of the periods for which total return quotations are provided.

 

The yield and total return calculations for a subaccount do not reflect the effect of any premium taxes that may be applicable to a particular policy and they may not reflect the charges for any optional features. To the extent that any or all of a premium tax is applicable to a particular policy, or one or more features are elected, the yield and/or total return of that policy will be reduced. For additional information regarding yields and total returns calculated using the standard formats briefly summarized above, please refer to the SAI, a copy of which may be obtained from the administrative and service office upon request.

 

Based on the method of calculation described in the SAI, the average annual total returns for periods from inception of the subaccounts to December 31, 2003, and for the one and five year periods ended December 31, 2003 are shown in Tables 1-A and 1-B below. Total returns shown reflect deductions for the mortality and expense risk fee and the administrative charges, and any 12b-1 fee, if applicable restated as if the 12b-1 fee had

been in existence from the inception date. Standard total return calculations will reflect the effect of surrender charges that may be applicable to a particular period.

The figures in the above tables may reflect waiver of advisory fees and reimbursement of other expenses. In the absence of such waivers, the average annual total return figures above would have been lower. (See the prospectuses for the underlying fund portfolios.)

 

Non-Standard Performance Data

 

In addition to the standard data discussed above, similar performance data for other periods may also be shown.

 

Transamerica may also advertise or disclose average annual total return or other performance data in non-standard formats for a subaccount of the separate account. The non-standard performance data may assume that no surrender charge is applicable, and may also make other assumptions such as the amount invested in a subaccount, differences in time periods to be shown, or the effect of partial surrenders or annuity payments.

 

All non-standard performance data will be advertised only if the standard performance data is also disclosed. For additional information regarding the calculation of other performance data, please refer to the SAI.

 

The non-standard average annual total return figures shown in Table 2 are based on the assumption that the policy is not surrendered, and therefore the surrender charge is not imposed. Also, Table 2, does not reflect the charge for any optional feature, and any 12b-1 fee, if applicable restated as if the 12b-1 fee had been in existence from the inception date.

The figures in the above tables may reflect waiver of advisory fees and reimbursement of other expenses. In the absence of such waivers, the average annual total return figures above would have been lower. (See the prospectuses for the underlying fund portfolios.)

 

Adjusted Historical Performance Data of the Portfolios. The following performance data for the periods prior to the date the subaccount commenced operations is based on the performance of the corresponding portfolio and the assumption that the applicable subaccount was in existence for the same period as the corresponding portfolio with a level of charges equal to those currently assessed against the subaccount or against owner’s policy values.

 

In addition, Transamerica may present historic performance data for the portfolios since their inception reduced by some or all the fees and charges under the policy. Such adjusted historic performance includes data that precedes the inception dates on the subaccounts. This data is designed to show the performance that would have resulted if the policy had been in existence during that time.

 

For instance, as shown in Tables 3 and 4 below, Transamerica may disclose average annual total returns for the portfolios reduced by some or all fees and charges under the policy, as if the policy had been in existence since the inception of the portfolio. Such fees and charges include the mortality and expense risk fee, administrative charge, surrender charges, and any 12b-1 fee, if applicable restated as if the 12b-1 fee had been in existence from the inception date. Table 3 assumes a complete surrender of the policy at the end of the period, and therefore the surrender charge is deducted. Table 4 assumes that the policy is not surrendered, and therefore the surrender charge is not deducted. Also, Tables 3 and Table 4 do not reflect the charge of any optional rider.

The monthly deduction is made at the beginning of each month and generally approximates the performance that would have resulted if the subaccounts had actually been in existence since the inception of the portfolio.

(1) The calculation of total return performance for periods prior to inception of the subaccounts reflects deductions for the mortality and expense risk fee and administrative charge on a monthly basis, rather than a daily basis. The monthly deduction is made at the beginning of each month and generally approximates the performance that would have resulted if the subaccounts had actually been in existence since the inception of the portfolio.

 

(2) If the corresponding inception date is less than ten years, the performance is for the time period since the corresponding inception date.

(4) Effective October 9, 2000, shares of each series of the target account were liquidated and the proceeds were used to purchase shares of the Capital Guardian U.S. Equity Portfolio. This was a fundamental change in the structure of the target account from an actively managed account to a passive unit investment trust. In addition, Capital Guardian U.S. Equity has a different subadvisor and fundamentally different investment policies. Therefore, no performance history is given for periods prior to October 9, 2000 because such history is not relevant or applicable to the Capital Guardian U.S. Equity Subaccount.

 

(5) As of May 1, 2004, BlackRock Global Science & Technology Opportunities was merged into Great Companies – TechnologySM.

 

(6) This subaccount has been re-opened for investments by any owner as of May 1, 2003. Any new investments in the re-opened subaccount will receive Service Class interests, however. Previously, this subaccount was only available to owners that held an investment in this subaccount on or before May 1, 2002. In addition, if any such owner surrendered all of his or her money in this subaccount on or before May 1, 2002, that owner could not reinvest in this subaccount.

VARIABLE ANNUITY

 

Issued by

 

TRANSAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

 

Supplement dated May 1, 2004

to the

Prospectus dated May 1, 2004

 

LIVING BENEFITS RIDER

 

You may elect to purchase the optional living benefits rider which provides you with a guaranteed minimum accumulation benefit and a guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit. The living benefits rider is available during the accumulation phase but it will not be issued if the annuitant is age 81 or older. The maximum issue age may be lower if required by state law.

 

You should view the living benefits rider as a way to permit you to invest in variable investment options while still having your policy value and liquidity protected to the extent provided by the living benefits rider. Please note: You cannot elect this rider if you have elected certain other optional benefits under the policy. Certain protections under the rider are available only if you hold the rider for ten years. In addition, if you elect the rider, we will monitor your policy value and may transfer amounts back and forth between specified investment options under the policy and the variable investment options you choose, according to a mathematical model that we will use to assist us in managing portfolio risk and supporting the guarantees under the rider.

 

The living benefits rider may vary for certain policies and may not be available for all policies. Please contact Transamerica at (800) 525-6205 for additional information regarding the availability of the living benefits rider.

 

This supplement hereby amends, and to the extent inconsistent replaces, the prospectus disclosure.

Table of Contents
(2) This Example assumes that you elect the Living Benefits Rider and that you elect other options and features with the highest combination of total charges. The Example does not reflect the cost for any other optional features offered by a supplement to the prospectus. The expenses would be higher if the charges for such benefits were added.

 

Guaranteed Minimum Accumulation Benefit

 

If you elect the living benefits rider, we will provide a guaranteed future value. This benefit is intended to provide a level of protection regardless of the performance of the variable investment options you select.

 

Guaranteed Future Value. The guaranteed future value on the rider date (i.e., the date the rider is added to the policy) is the policy value (less premium enhancements if the rider is added in the first policy year). After the rider date and before the guaranteed future value date, which is the tenth rider anniversary, the guaranteed future value is equal to:

 

  the guaranteed future value on the rider date; plus

 

  a percentage of subsequent premium payments (as described below); less

 

  subsequent adjusted partial withdrawals (as described below).

 

After the guaranteed future value date the guaranteed future value equals zero.

 

Subsequent Premium Payments. The percentage of subsequent premium payments that will be added to the guaranteed future value are as follows:

Guaranteed Future Value Adjusted Partial Withdrawals. If you take a partial withdrawal, it will reduce your guaranteed future value. The amount of the reduction is referred to as the adjusted partial withdrawal amount, which will be equal to the greater of:

 

  the guaranteed future value immediately prior to the withdrawal multiplied by the percentage reduction in the policy value resulting from the gross partial withdrawal; or

 

  the gross partial withdrawal amount.

 

(The gross partial withdrawal amount is the amount you request, plus any surrender charges and excess interest adjustments that may be applicable.)

 

In other words, if your policy value is greater than the guaranteed future value at the time you make a partial withdrawal, then your guaranteed future value is reduced by the same amount we reduce your policy value. However, if your policy

Table of Contents

value is less than the guaranteed future value at the time you make a partial withdrawal, then your guaranteed future value will be reduced by more than the amount we reduce your policy value.

 

See the supplement to the SAI for examples showing the effect of hypothetical withdrawals in more detail.

 

Guaranteed Minimum Accumulation Benefit. On the guaranteed future value date (ten years after you elect the rider), if the policy value is less than the guaranteed future value, we will add an amount equal to the difference to your policy value. After the guaranteed future value date, the guaranteed minimum accumulation benefit will terminate.

 

Example. Assume you make a single premium payment of $100,000 and you do not make any withdrawals or additional premium payments. Assume that on the guaranteed future value date your policy value has declined to $90,000 because of negative investment performance. We will add $10,000 to your policy value.

 

Please note: You do not have any protection under the guaranteed minimum accumulation benefit unless you hold the rider for ten years. If you think that you may terminate the policy or elect to start receiving annuity payments before the guaranteed future value date, you should consider whether electing the rider is in your best interests.

 

Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit

 

If you elect the living benefits rider, we will provide a maximum annual withdrawal amount regardless of your policy value. This benefit is intended to provide a level of liquidity regardless of the performance of the variable investment options you select.

 

Withdrawal Guarantees. There are two withdrawal guarantees under this benefit:

 

  “principal back;” and

 

  “for life.”

 

You can take withdrawals under either guarantee or alternate between the guarantees (your ability to change the frequency or amount of your withdrawals ceases if your policy value reaches zero). Of course, you can always withdraw an amount up to your cash value pursuant to your rights under the policy at your discretion. Please note, the amount of your gross partial withdrawal may impact the maximum annual withdrawal amount, total withdrawal base, and minimum remaining withdrawal amount under each guarantee and such impact may be on a greater than dollar-for-dollar basis.

 

Withdrawals under the guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit also:

 

  reduce your policy value;

 

  reduce your death benefit and other benefits;

 

  may be subject to surrender charges and excess interest adjustments; and

 

  may be subject to income taxes and federal tax penalties.

 

Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount. Under this benefit:

 

  you can withdraw up to 7% of your “principal back” total withdrawal base each rider year until your “principal back” minimum remaining withdrawal amount reaches zero; or

Table of Contents

Example. Assume you make a single premium payment of $100,000 and that you do not make any withdrawals or additional premium payments. Assume that after five years, your policy value has declined to $70,000 solely because of negative investment performance. You could still withdraw up to $7,000 each rider year for the next fourteen years and $2,000 in the next year so you would get back your full $100,000 (assuming that you do not withdraw more than $7,000 in any one rider year).

 

  or, you can withdraw up to 5% of your “for life” total withdrawal base each rider year starting with the rider anniversary immediately following the annuitant’s 59th birthday until the annuitant’s death unless your “for life” minimum remaining withdrawal amount reaches zero because of “excess” withdrawals (see adjusted partial withdrawals, below). All withdrawals before the annuitant’s 59th birthday are excess withdrawals for purposes of the “for life” guarantee.

 

Example. Assume you are the owner and annuitant and you make a single premium payment of $100,000 when you are 55 years old. Assume you do not make any withdrawals or additional premium payments. Assume that after five years, your policy value has declined to $70,000 solely because of negative investment performance. You could still withdraw up to $5,000 each rider year for the rest of your life (assuming that you do not withdraw more than $5,000 in any one rider year).

 

You can take withdrawals under this rider regardless of your policy value; however, once your policy value reaches zero you cannot make premium payments and all other policy features, benefits, and guarantees (except those provided by this rider) are terminated. In order to continue withdrawals under this rider after your policy value reaches zero, you must select an amount and frequency of future withdrawals. Once selected, the amount and frequency of future withdrawals after your policy value reaches zero cannot be changed.

 

Please note: The maximum annual withdrawal amounts described above (the 7% “principal back” and 5% “for life”) are based on rider years, not calendar or policy years (if different from rider years).

 

Total Withdrawal Base. We use the total withdrawal base to calculate the maximum annual withdrawal amount. The total withdrawal base on the rider date is the policy value (less premium enhancements if the rider is added in the first policy year). After the rider date, the total withdrawal base is equal to:

 

  the total withdrawal base on the rider date; plus

 

  subsequent premium payments; less

 

  subsequent adjusted partial withdrawals (as described below).

 

We will calculate separate total withdrawal bases for the “principal back” and “for life” guarantees.

 

Minimum Remaining Withdrawal Amount. The minimum remaining withdrawal amount represents the total amount of guaranteed withdrawals still available under the rider. The minimum remaining withdrawal amount on the rider date is the policy value (less premium enhancements if the rider is added in the first policy year). After the rider date, the minimum remaining withdrawal amount is equal to:

 

  the minimum remaining withdrawal amount on the rider date; plus

 

  subsequent premium payments; less

 

  subsequent adjusted partial withdrawals (as described below).

 

We will calculate separate minimum remaining withdrawal amounts for the “principal back” and “for life” guarantees.

Table of Contents

Adjusted Partial Withdrawals. Each rider year, gross partial withdrawals up to the maximum annual withdrawal amount for the “principal back” and “for life” guarantees will reduce the minimum remaining withdrawal amount on a dollar-for-dollar basis but will not reduce the total withdrawal base for the “principal back” and “for life” guarantees. Gross partial withdrawals in excess of the maximum annual withdrawal amount for the “principal back” and “for life” guarantees will reduce the total withdrawal base and minimum remaining withdrawal amount for the “principal back” and “for life” guarantees on a pro rata basis (possibly to zero). See the supplement to the SAI for examples showing the effect of hypothetical withdrawals in more detail. Excess withdrawals may eliminate the guarantees.

 

Please note: Gross partial withdrawals of the “principal back” maximum annual withdrawal amount will result in an excess partial withdrawal under the “for life” guarantee as will any partial withdrawal before the rider anniversary following the annuitant’s 59th birthday and will reduce the “for life” maximum annual withdrawal amount, “for life” total withdrawal base, and “for life” minimum remaining withdrawal amount and such reduction may be on a greater than dollar-for-dollar basis. The effect of a 7% “principal back” withdrawal is illustrated below.

Living Benefits Rider Fee

 

A rider fee, 0.75% of the “principal back” total withdrawal base on each rider anniversary, is charged annually prior to annuitization. We will also deduct the rider fee upon full surrender of the policy or other termination of the rider (once we have received all necessary regulatory approvals). The rider fee is deducted from each investment choice in proportion to the amount of policy value in each investment option. Generally, the rider fee is deducted regardless of your values.

 

We will continue to calculate the rider fee using the “principal back” total withdrawal base even after the “principal back” minimum remaining withdrawal amount reaches zero. The “principal back” total withdrawal base is always greater than or equal to the “for life” total withdrawal base.

 

Portfolio Allocation Method

 

If you elect the living benefits rider, the Portfolio Allocation Method (“PAM”) will automatically be in effect. PAM is designed to help manage portfolio risk and support the guarantees under the living benefits rider. Using PAM, we will monitor your policy value and may transfer amounts back and forth between the PAM Transamerica U.S. Government Securities - Service Class subaccount (which invests in the Transamerica U.S. Government Securities – Service Class portfolio of the AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc.) or certain guaranteed period options of the fixed account (each a “PAM investment option” and collectively, the “PAM investment options”) and the variable investment options you choose. You should read the underlying fund prospectus for the variable PAM investment option(s) carefully before you elect the living benefits rider. We will transfer amounts from your variable investment options to the PAM

Table of Contents

investment options to the extent we deem, at our sole discretion, necessary to support the guarantees under the rider. We will transfer amounts to the PAM investment options proportionally from all your variable investment options. Currently, PAM transfers are being made to the PAM Transamerica U.S. Government Securities- Service Class subaccount.

 

PAM is designed to help reduce portfolio risk associated with negative performance. Using PAM, we will transfer amounts from your variable investment options to the PAM investment options to the extent we deem, in our sole discretion, necessary to help manage portfolio risk and support the guarantees under the living benefits rider. You should not view the living benefits rider nor PAM as a “market timing” or other type of investment program designed to enhance your policy value. If you choose this rider, it may result in a lower policy value in certain situations. If policy value is transferred from your chosen variable investment options to the PAM investment options, less of your policy value may be available to participate in any future positive investment performance of your variable investment options. This may potentially provide a lower policy value than if you did not select the living benefits rider.

 

We will use a mathematical model to compare your policy value and the guarantees to be provided in the future. Based upon this comparison, we may transfer some or all of your policy value to or from the PAM investment options.

 

You may not allocate premium payments to, nor transfer policy value into or out of, the PAM investment options. PAM transfers are not subject to any transfer fee and do not count against the number of any free transfers we allow. Transfers out of a fixed account PAM investment option are at our discretion and may be subject to an excess interest adjustment if the transfer occurs before the end of a guarantee period. Any transfer to your variable investment options will be allocated into your variable investment options in proportion to the amount of policy value in each variable investment option.

 

Generally, transfers to the PAM investment options first occur when the policy value drops by a cumulative amount of 3% to 5% over any period of time, although we may make transfers to the PAM investment options when the policy value drops by less than 3%. If the policy value continues to fall, more transfers to the PAM investment options will occur. When a transfer occurs, the transferred policy value is allocated to the PAM investment option(s) we deem appropriate. The policy value allocated to the PAM investment options will remain there unless the performance of your chosen investment options recovers sufficiently to enable us to transfer amounts back to your investment options while maintaining the guarantees under the living benefits rider. This generally occurs when the policy value increases by 5% to 10% in relation to the guarantees, although we may require a larger increase before transferring amounts back to your investment options.

To The

Prospectus Dated May 1, 2004

 

An optional “Liquidity Rider” is available for the Transamerica Landmark Variable Annuity. You can elect this rider which reduces the number of years each premium payment is subject to surrender charges. You can only elect this rider at the time you purchase your policy. There is an extra charge for this rider. The rights and benefits under the Liquidity Rider are summarized below. A copy of the rider is available upon request from Transamerica Life Insurance Company.

 

All terms used that are not defined in this supplement shall have the same meanings as the same terms used in the prospectus.

 

The Liquidity Rider may not be available in all states at the date of this supplement. Please contact Transamerica at (800) 525-6205 for additional information regarding the availability of the Liquidity Rider in your state.

(1) The fee for the Liquidity Rider is in addition to the mortality and expense risk fee (1.15%). This fee is only charged for the first four policy years.

 

(2) This Example assumes that you elect the Liquidity Rider and that you elect other options and features available under the policy with the highest combination of total charges, except that the Example does not reflect the cost for any other riders offered by a supplement to the prospectus.

Rider Fee. A rider fee equal to an effective annual rate of 0.50% of the daily net asset value in the separate account is deducted in calculating the accumulation unit values. The rider fee is only charged for the first four policy years. Please note we may credit interest in the fixed account at a lower rate if you select this rider.

 

Accumulation Unit Values. After the end of the fourth policy year, the 0.50% rider fee will no longer be assessed. We intend to administer the removal of the 0.50% charge by changing to a different class of accumulation units. This will result in adjusting the number of accumulation units and adjusting the unit value of the subaccounts in which you were invested at the end of the fourth policy year. The elimination of the fee and the adjustment in the number of accumulation units and unit values will not affect policy values.

 

Termination. The rider is irrevocable.

 

The Liquidity Rider may vary for certain policies and may not be available for all policies.

The rider fee is only charged for the first four policy years. Please note we may credit interest in the fixed account at a lower rate if you select this rider.

 

Accumulation Unit Values. After the end of the fourth policy year, the 0.50% rider fee will no longer be assessed. We intend to administer the removal of the 0.50% charge by changing to a different class of accumulation units. This will result in adjusting the number of accumulation units and adjusting the unit value of the subaccounts in which you were invested at the end of the fourth policy year. The elimination of the fee and the adjustment in the number of accumulation units and unit values will not affect policy values.

 

Termination. The rider is irrevocable.

 

The Liquidity Rider may vary for certain policies and may not be available for all policies.

(6) Effective October 9, 2000, shares of each series of the target account were liquidated and the proceeds were used to purchase shares of the Capital Guardian U.S. Equity Portfolio. This was a fundamental change in the structure of the target account from an actively managed account to a passive unit investment trust. In addition, Capital Guardian U.S. Equity has a different subadviser and fundamentally different investment policies. Therefore, no performance history is given for periods prior to October 9, 2000 because such history is not relevant or applicable to the Capital Guardian U.S. Equity Subaccount.

(1) If the corresponding inception date is less than ten years the performance is for the time period since the corresponding inception date.

 

(2) The Subaccounts invest in Class A shares of the Merrill Lynch Variable Series Funds, Inc. portfolios. The performance data for periods prior to the date the Merrill Lynch Subaccounts commenced operations is based on the performance of the underlying portfolios and the assumption that the Merrill Lynch Subaccounts were in existence for the same period as the corresponding portfolios, with a level of charges equal to those currently assessed against the Subaccount or against owners’ policy values under the Policies. The Merrill Lynch Basic Value V.I. Fund commenced operations on July 1, 1993; the Merrill Lynch Global Allocation V.I. Fund commenced operations on May 2, 1994; and the Merrill Lynch High Current Income V.I. Fund commenced operations on April 20, 1982. For purposes of the calculation of the performance data prior to dates of inception of the subaccounts, the deductions for the mortality and expense risk fee, and administrative charge are made on a monthly basis, rather than a daily basis. The monthly deduction is made at the beginning of each month and in Transamerica’s opinion generally approximates the performance that would have resulted if the Merrill Lynch Subaccounts had actually been in existence since the inception of the underlying portfolios. Performance data for periods of less than seven years reflect deduction of the surrender charge.

 

(3) Merrill Lynch Developing Markets V.I. Fund merged into Merrill Lynch Global Allocation V.I. Fund.

(3) This Example assumes that you elect the Liquidity Rider and that you elect other options and features available under the policy with the highest combination of total charges, except that the Example does not reflect the cost for any other riders offered by a supplement to the prospectus.

The following hereby amends, and to the extent inconsistent replaces, the corresponding Section 10 in the body of the prospectus.

 

Liquidity Rider

Rider Fee. A rider fee equal to an effective annual rate of 0.50% of the daily net asset value in the account is deducted in calculating the accumulation unit values. The rider fee is only charged for the first four policy years. Please note we may credit interest in the fixed account at a lower rate if you select this rider.

 

Accumulation Unit Values. After the end of the fourth policy year, the 0.50% rider fee will no longer be assessed. We intend to administer the removal of the 0.50% charge by changing to a different class of accumulation units. This will result in adjusting the number of accumulation units and adjusting the unit value of the subaccounts in which you were invested at the end of the fourth policy year. The elimination of the fee and the adjustment in the number of accumulation units and unit values will not affect policy values.

 

Termination. The rider is irrevocable.

 

The Liquidity Rider may vary for certain policies and may not be available for all policies.

 

Financial Information. The MTB Large-Cap Growth Fund II, MTB Large-Cap Value Fund II, MTB Managed Allocation – Moderate Growth Fund II had not commenced operations as of December 31, 2003, therefore, financial data is not available.

(4) Effective October 9, 2000, shares of each series of the target account were liquidated and the proceeds were used to purchase shares of the Capital Guardian U.S. Equity Portfolio. This was a fundamental change in the structure of the target account from an actively managed account to a passive unit investment trust. In addition, Capital Guardian U.S. Equity has a different subadviser and fundamentally different investment policies. Therefore, no performance history is given for periods prior to October 9, 2000 because such history is not relevant or applicable to the Capital Guardian U.S. Equity Subaccount.

TRANSAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

 

Supplement dated May 1, 2004

to the

Statement of Additional Information dated May 1, 2004

 

LIVING BENEFITS RIDER ADJUSTED PARTIAL SURRENDERS

 

The following examples show the effect of withdrawals on the benefits under the living benefits rider.

 

Guaranteed Minimum Accumulation Benefit

 

Gross partial withdrawals will reduce the guaranteed future value pro rata. The amount of the reduction is equal to the greater of:

 

  1) the gross partial withdrawal amount; and

 

  2) the result of (A / B) * C, where:

 

  A is the amount of gross partial withdrawal;

 

  B is the policy value immediately prior to the gross partial withdrawal; and

 

  C is the guaranteed future value immediately prior to the gross partial withdrawal.

 

The following demonstrates, on a purely hypothetical basis, the effects of partial withdrawals under the guaranteed minimum accumulation benefit.

 

Example 1:

 

Assumptions:

 

Policy value prior to withdrawal (“PV”) = $90,000

 

Guaranteed future value prior to withdrawal (“GFV”) = $100,000

 

Gross withdrawal amount (“WD”) = $10,000

 

Step One. What is the pro rata value of the amount withdrawn?

 

  1. Formula is (WD / PV) * GFV = pro rata amount

 

  2. ($10,000 / $90,000) * $100,000 = $11,111.11

 

This Supplement must be accompanied or preceded

by the Statement of Additional Information for the

Transamerica Landmark Variable Annuity dated May 1, 2004

 


Table of Contents

Step Two. Which is larger, the $10,000 withdrawal or the $11,111.11 pro rata amount?

 

$11,111.11 pro rata amount

 

Step Three. After the withdrawal is taken, what will be new guaranteed future value?

 

$100,000 - $11,111.11 = $88,888.89

 

Result. If no more withdrawals are taken, the guaranteed future value on the 10th rider anniversary is $88,888.89.

 

Example 2:

 

Assumptions:

 

PV = $120,000

 

GFV = $100,000

 

WD = $10,000

 

Step One. What is the pro rata value of the amount withdrawn?

 

  1. Formula is (WD / PV) * GFV = pro rata amount

 

  2. ($10,000 / $120,000) * $100,000 = $8,333.33

 

Step Two. Which is larger, the $10,000 withdrawal or the $8,333.33 pro rata amount?

 

$10,000 withdrawal

 

Step Three. After the withdrawal is taken, what will be new guaranteed future value?

 

$100,000 - $10,000 = $90,000

 

Result. If no more withdrawals are taken, the guaranteed future value on the 10th Rider Anniversary is $90,000.

 

Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit

 

Total Withdrawal Base. Gross partial withdrawals up to the maximum annual withdrawal amount will not reduce the total withdrawal base. Gross partial withdrawals in excess of the maximum annual withdrawal amount will reduce the total withdrawal base pro rata. The amount of the reduction due to the excess withdrawal is equal to the greater of:

 

  1) the excess gross partial withdrawal amount; and

 

  2) the result of (A / B) * C, where:

 

  A is the excess gross partial withdrawal (the amount in excess of the guaranteed annual withdrawal amount remaining prior to the withdrawal);

 

  B is the policy value after the maximum annual withdrawal amount has been withdrawn, but prior to the withdrawal of the excess amount; and

 

  C is the total withdrawal base prior to the withdrawal of the excess amount.

 

2


Table of Contents

Minimum Remaining Withdrawal Amount. Gross partial withdrawals up to the maximum annual withdrawal amount will reduce the minimum remaining withdrawal amount by the same amount (dollar-for-dollar). Gross partial withdrawals in excess of the maximum annual withdrawal amount will reduce the minimum remaining withdrawal amount pro rata. The amount of the reduction due to the excess withdrawal is equal to the greater of:

 

  1) the excess gross partial withdrawal amount; and

 

  2) the result of (A / B) * C, where:

 

  A is the excess gross partial withdrawal (the amount in excess of the guaranteed annual withdrawal amount remaining prior to the withdrawal);

 

  B is the policy value after the maximum annual withdrawal amount has been withdrawn, but prior to the withdrawal of the excess amount; and

 

  C is the minimum remaining withdrawal amount after the maximum annual withdrawal amount has been withdrawn, but prior to the withdrawal of the excess amount.

 

The following demonstrates, on a purely hypothetical basis, the effects of partial withdrawals under the guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit.

 

When a withdrawal is taken, three parts of the guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit can be affected:

 

  1. Minimum remaining withdrawal amount (“MRWA”)

 

  2 Total withdrawal base (“TWB”)

 

  3. Maximum annual withdrawal amount (“MAWA”)

 

Example 1 (7% “principal back”):

 

Assumptions:

 

TWB = $100,000

 

MRWA = $100,000

 

7% WD would be $7,000 (7% of the current $100,000 total withdrawal base)

 

WD = $7,000

 

Excess withdrawal (“EWD”) = None

 

PV = $100,000

 

You = Owner and Annuitant (Age 60)

 

Step One. Is any portion of the withdrawal greater than the “principal back” maximum annual withdrawal amount?

 

No. There is no excess withdrawal under the “principal back” guarantee if no more than $7,000 is withdrawn.

 

Step Two. What is the minimum remaining withdrawal amount after the withdrawal has been taken?

 

  1. Total to deduct from the minimum remaining withdrawal amount is $7,000 (there is no excess to deduct)

 

  2. $100,000 - $7,000 = $93,000.

 

Result. In this example, because no portion of the withdrawal was in excess of $7,000, the “principal back” total withdrawal base does not change and the “principal back” minimum remaining withdrawal amount is $93,000.00.

Table of Contents

Example 2 (7% “principal back”):

 

Assumptions:

 

TWB = $100,000

 

MRWA = $100,000

 

7% WD would be $7,000 (7% of the current $100,000 total withdrawal base)

 

WD = $8,000

 

EWD = $1,000 ($8,000 - $7,000)

 

PV = $90,000

 

You = Owner and Annuitant (Age 60)

 

Step One. Is any portion of the total withdrawal greater than the maximum annual withdrawal amount?

 

Yes. $8,000 - $7,000 = $1,000 (the excess withdrawal amount)

 

Step Two. Calculate how much of the “principal back” minimum remaining withdrawal amount is affected by the excess withdrawal.

 

  1. Formula for pro rata amount is: (EWD / (PV - 7% WD)) * (MRWA - 7% WD)

 

  2. ($1,000 / ($90,000 - $7,000)) * ($100,000 - $7,000) = $1,120.48

 

Step Three. Which is larger, the actual $1,000 excess withdrawal or the $1,120.48 pro rata amount?

 

$1,120.48 pro rata amount

 

Step Four. What is the “principal back” minimum remaining withdrawal amount after the withdrawal has been taken?

 

  1. Total to deduct from the minimum remaining withdrawal amount is $7,000 (GAWA) + $1,120.48 (pro rata excess) = $8,120.48

 

  2. $100,000 - $8,120.48 = $91,879.52

 

Result. The “principal back” minimum remaining withdrawal amount is $91,879.52.

 

NOTE. For the guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit, because there was an excess withdrawal amount, the total withdrawal base needs to be adjusted as well as a new lower maximum annual withdrawal amount. Had the withdrawal for this example not been more than $7,000, the “principal back” total withdrawal base would remain at $100,000 and the “principal back” maximum annual withdrawal amount would be $7,000. However, because an excess withdrawal has been taken, the total withdrawal base is also changed (this is the amount the 7% is based on).

 

New “principal back” total withdrawal base:

 

Step One. The total withdrawal base is only reduced by amount of the excess or the pro rata amount if greater.

 

Step Two. Calculate how much the total withdrawal base is affected by the excess withdrawal.

 

  1. The formula is (EWD / (PV - 7% WD)) * TWB before any adjustments

 

  2. ($1,000 / ($90,000 - $7,000)) * $100,000 = $1,204.82

 

Step Three. Which is larger, the actual $1,000 excess withdrawal or the $1,204.82 pro rata amount?

 

$1,204.82 pro rata amount.

Table of Contents

Step Four. What is the new total withdrawal base upon which the maximum annual withdrawal amount is based?

 

$100,000 - $1,204.82 = $98,795.18

 

Result. The new “principal back” total withdrawal base is $98,795.18

 

New “principal back” maximum annual withdrawal amount:

 

Because the “principal back” total withdrawal base was adjusted (due to the excess withdrawal) we have to calculate a new maximum annual withdrawal amount for the 7% “principal back” guarantee that will be available starting on the next rider anniversary. This calculation assumes no more activity prior to the next rider anniversary.

 

Step One. What is the new “principal back” maximum annual withdrawal amount?

 

$98,795.18 (the adjusted total withdrawal base) * 7% = $6,915.66

 

Result. Going forward, the maximum you can take out in a rider year is $6,915.66 without causing an excess withdrawal for the “principal back” guarantee and further reduction of the “principal back” total withdrawal base.

 

Example 3 (5% “for life”):

 

Assumptions:

 

TWB = $100,000

 

MRWA = $100,000

 

5% WD would be $5,000 (5% of the current $100,000 total withdrawal base)

 

WD = $5,000

 

Excess withdrawal (“EWD”) = None

 

PV = $100,000

 

You = Owner and Annuitant (Age 60)

 

Step One. Is any portion of the withdrawal greater than the “for life” maximum annual withdrawal amount?

 

No. There is no excess withdrawal under the “for life” guarantee if no more than $5,000 is withdrawn.

 

Step Two. What is the minimum remaining withdrawal amount after the withdrawal has been taken?

 

  1. Total to deduct from the minimum remaining withdrawal amount is $5,000 (there is no excess to deduct)

 

  2. $100,000 - $5,000 = $95,000.

 

Result. In this example, because no portion of the withdrawal was in excess of $5,000, the “for life” total withdrawal base does not change and the “for life” minimum remaining withdrawal amount is $95,000.00.

Example 4 (5% “for life”):

 

Assumptions:

 

TWB = $100,000

 

MRWA = $100,000

 

5% WD would be $5,000 (5% of the current $100,000 total withdrawal base)

 

WD = $7,000

 

EWD = $2,000 ($7,000 - $5,000)

 

PV = $90,000

 

You = Owner and Annuitant (Age 60)

 

Step One. Is any portion of the total withdrawal greater than the maximum annual withdrawal amount?

 

Yes. $7,000 - $5,000 = $2,000 (the excess withdrawal amount)

 

Step Two. Calculate how much of the “for life” minimum remaining withdrawal amount is affected by the excess withdrawal.

 

  1. Formula for pro rata amount is: (EWD / (PV – 5% WD)) * (MRWA – 5% WD)

 

  2. ($2,000 / ($90,000 - $5,000)) * ($100,000 - $5,000) = $2,235.29

 

Step Three. Which is larger, the actual $2,000 excess withdrawal or the $2,235.29 pro rata amount?

 

$2,235.29 pro rata amount

 

Step Four. What is the “for life” minimum remaining withdrawal amount after the withdrawal has been taken?

 

  1. Total to deduct from the minimum remaining withdrawal amount is $5,000 (GAWA) + $2,235.29 (pro rata excess) = $7,235.29

 

  2. $100,000 - $7,235.29 = $92,764.71

 

Result. The “for life” minimum remaining withdrawal amount is $92,764.71.

 

NOTE. For the guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit, because there was an excess withdrawal amount, the total withdrawal base needs to be adjusted as well as a new lower maximum annual withdrawal amount. Had the withdrawal for this example not been more than $5,000, the “for life” total withdrawal base would remain at $100,000 and the “for life” maximum annual withdrawal amount would be $5,000. However, because an excess withdrawal has been taken, the total withdrawal base is also changed (this is the amount the 5% is based on).

 

New “for life” total withdrawal base:

 

Step One. The total withdrawal base is only reduced by amount of the excess or the pro rata amount if greater.

 

Step Two. Calculate how much the total withdrawal base is affected by the excess withdrawal.

 

  1. The formula is (EWD / (PV - 5% WD)) * TWB before any adjustments

 

  2. ($2,000 / ($90,000 - $5,000)) * $100,000 = $2,352.94

 

Step Three. Which is larger, the actual $2,000 excess withdrawal or the $2,352.94 pro rata amount?

 

$2,352.94 pro rata amount.

Table of Contents

Step Four. What is the new total withdrawal base upon which the maximum annual withdrawal amount is based?

 

$100,000 - $2,352.94 = $97,647.06

 

Result. The new “for life” total withdrawal base is $97,647.06

 

New “for life” maximum annual withdrawal amount:

 

Because the “for life” total withdrawal base was adjusted (due to the excess withdrawal) we have to calculate a new maximum annual withdrawal amount for the 5% “for life” guarantee that will be available starting on the next rider anniversary. This calculation assumes no more activity prior to the next rider anniversary.

 

Step One. What is the new “for life” maximum annual withdrawal amount?

 

$97,647.06 (the adjusted total withdrawal base) * 5% = $4,882.35

 

Result. Going forward, the maximum you can take out in a rider year is $4,882.35 without causing an excess withdrawal for the “for life” guarantee and further reduction of the “for life” total withdrawal base.

Table of Contents

In order to supplement the description in the prospectus, the following provides additional information about Transamerica and the policy, which may be of interest to a prospective purchaser.

 

THE POLICY—GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

Owner

 

The policy shall belong to the owner upon issuance of the policy after completion of an enrollment form and delivery of the initial premium payment. While the annuitant is living, the owner may: (1) assign the policy; (2) surrender the policy; (3) amend or modify the policy with Transamerica’s consent; (4) receive annuity payments or name a payee to receive the payments; and (5) exercise, receive and enjoy every other right and benefit contained in the policy. The exercise of these rights may be subject to the consent of any assignee or irrevocable beneficiary; and of your spouse in a community or marital property state.

 

Unless Transamerica has been notified of a community or marital property interest in the policy, it will rely on its good faith belief that no such interest exists and will assume no responsibility for inquiry.

 

Note carefully. If the owner predeceases the annuitant and no joint owner, primary beneficiary, or contingent beneficiary is alive or in existence on the date of death, the owner’s estate will become the new owner. If no probate estate is opened because the owner has precluded the opening of a probate estate by means of a trust or other instrument, that trust may not exercise ownership rights to the policy. It may be necessary to open a probate estate in order to exercise ownership rights to the policy.

 

The owner may change the ownership of the policy in a written notice. When this change takes effect, all rights of ownership in the policy will pass to the new owner. A change of ownership may have tax consequences.

 

When there is a change of owner, the change will not be effective until it is recorded in our records. Once recorded, it will take effect as of the date the owner signs the written notice, subject to any payment Transamerica has made or action Transamerica has taken before recording the change. Changing the owner does not change the designation of the beneficiary or the annuitant.

 

If ownership is transferred to a new owner (except to the owner’s spouse) because the owner dies before the annuitant, the cash value generally must be distributed to the new owner within five years of the owner’s death, or payments must be made for a period certain or for the new owner’s lifetime so long as any period certain does not exceed that new owner’s life expectancy, if the first payment begins within one year of your death.

 

Entire Policy

 

The policy, any endorsements thereon, the enrollment form, or information provided in lieu thereof, constitute the entire contract between Transamerica and the owner. All statements in the enrollment form are representations and not warranties. No statement will cause the policy to be void or to be used in defense of a claim unless contained in the enrollment form or information provided in lieu thereof.

Table of Contents

Misstatement of Age or Sex

 

If the age or sex of the annuitant or owner has been misstated, Transamerica will change the annuity benefit payable to that which the premium payments would have purchased for the correct age or sex. The dollar amount of any underpayment made by Transamerica shall be paid in full with the next payment due such person or the beneficiary. The dollar amount of any overpayment made by Transamerica due to any misstatement shall be deducted from payments subsequently accruing to such person or beneficiary. Any underpayment or overpayment will include interest at 5% per year, from the date of the wrong payment to the date of the adjustment. The age of the annuitant or owner may be established at any time by the submission of proof satisfactory to Transamerica.

 

Addition, Deletion, or Substitution of Investments

 

Transamerica cannot and does not guarantee that any of the subaccounts will always be available for premium payments, allocations, or transfers. Transamerica retains the right, subject to any applicable law, to make certain changes in the separate account and its investments. Transamerica reserves the right to eliminate the shares of any portfolio held by a subaccount and to substitute shares of another portfolio of the underlying fund portfolios, or of another registered open-end management investment company for the shares of any portfolio, if the shares of the portfolio are no longer available for investment or if, in Transamerica’s judgment, investment in any portfolio would be inappropriate in view of the purposes of the separate account. To the extent required by the 1940 Act, as amended, substitutions of shares attributable to your interest in a subaccount will not be made without prior notice to you and the prior approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Nothing contained herein shall prevent the separate account from purchasing other securities for other series or classes of variable annuity policies, or from effecting an exchange between series or classes of variable annuity policies on the basis of your requests.

 

New subaccounts may be established when, in the sole discretion of Transamerica, marketing, tax, investment or other conditions warrant. Any new subaccounts may be made available to existing owners on a basis to be determined by Transamerica. Each additional subaccount will purchase shares in a mutual fund portfolio, or other investment vehicle. Transamerica may also eliminate one or more subaccounts if, in its sole discretion, marketing, tax, investment or other conditions warrant such change. In the event any subaccount is eliminated, Transamerica will notify you and request a reallocation of the amounts invested in the eliminated subaccount. If no such reallocation is provided by you, Transamerica will reinvest the amounts in the subaccount that invests in the Transamerica Money Market Portfolio (or in a similar portfolio of money market instruments), in another subaccount, or in the fixed account, if appropriate.

 

In the event of any such substitution or change, Transamerica may, by appropriate endorsement, make such changes in the policies as may be necessary or appropriate to reflect such substitution or change. Furthermore, if deemed to be in the best interests of persons having voting rights under the policies, the separate account may be (1) operated as a management company under the 1940 Act or any other form permitted by law, (2) deregistered under the 1940 Act in the event such registration is no longer required or (3) combined with one or more other separate accounts. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Transamerica also may (1) transfer the assets of the separate account associated with the policies to another account or accounts, (2) restrict or eliminate any voting rights of owners or other persons who have voting rights as to the separate account, (3) create new separate accounts, (4) add new subaccounts to or remove existing subaccounts from the separate account, or combine subaccounts, or (5) add new underlying fund portfolios, or substitute a new fund for an existing fund.

Excess Interest Adjustment

 

Money that you surrender from, transfer out of, or apply to an annuity payment option, from a guaranteed period option of the fixed account before the end of its guaranteed period (the number of years you specified the money would remain in the guaranteed period option) may be subject to an excess interest adjustment. At the time you request a surrender, if interest rates set by Transamerica have risen since the date of the initial guarantee, the excess interest adjustment will result in a lower cash value. However, if interest rates have fallen since the date of the initial guarantee, the excess interest adjustment will result in a higher cash value.

 

Excess interest adjustments will not reduce the adjusted policy value for a guaranteed period option below the premium payments and transfers to that guaranteed period option, less any prior partial surrenders and transfers from the guaranteed period option, plus interest at the policy’s minimum guaranteed effective annual interest rate. This is referred to as the excess interest adjustment floor.

 

The formula that will be used to determine the excess interest adjustment is:

 

S* (G-C)* (M/12)

 

S

  =   Gross amount being surrendered that is subject to the excess interest adjustment

G

  =   Guaranteed interest rate in effect for the policy

C

  =   Current guaranteed interest rate then being offered on new premiums for the next longer option period than “M”. If this policy form or such an option period is no longer offered, “C” will be the U.S. Treasury rate for the next longer maturity (in whole years) than “M” on the 25th day of the previous calendar month, plus up to 2%.

M

  =   Number of months remaining in the current option period, rounded up to the next higher whole number of months.

*

  =   multiplication

^

  =   exponentiation

Example 1 (Full Surrender, rates increase by 3%):

 

Single premium:    $50,000.00
Guarantee period:    5 Years
Guarantee rate:    5.50% per annum
Surrender:    Middle of policy year 2
Policy value at middle of policy year 2    = 50,000.00 * (1.055) ^ 1.5 = 54,181.21
Cumulative Earnings    = 54,181.21 – 50,000.00 = 4,181.21
10% of Premium    = 50,000.00 * .10 = 5,000.00
Penalty free amount at middle of policy year 2    = 5,000.00
Amount free of excess interest adjustment    = 4,181.21
Amount subject to excess interest adjustment    = 54,181.21 – 4,181.21 = 50,000.00

Excess interest adjustment    = S* (G-C)* (M/12)
     = 50,000.00 * (.055-.085) * (42/12)
    

= -5,250.00, but excess interest adjustment cannot cause the adjusted policy value to fall below the excess interest adjustment floor, so the adjustment is limited to

51,129.21 - 54,181.21 = -3,052.00

Adjusted policy value   

= policy value + excess interest adjustment

= 54,181.21 + (-3,052.00) = 51,129.21

Portion of penalty-free amount which is deducted from cumulative earnings   

= cumulative earnings

= 4,181.21

Portion of penalty-free amount which is deducted from premium   

= 5,000 – 4,181.21

= 818.79

Surrender charges    = (50,000.00 – 818.79)* .08 = 3,934.50
Net surrender value at middle of policy year 2    = 51,129.21 - 3,934.50 = 47,194.71

 

Upon full surrender of the policy, the net surrender value will never be less than that required by the non-forfeiture laws of your state.

= 4,181.21

Portion of penalty-free amount which is deducted from premium

= 818.79

Surrender charges    = (50,000.00 – 818.79) * .08 = 3,934.50
Net surrender value at middle of policy year 2    = 55,931.21 - 3,934.50 = 51,996.71

 

Upon full surrender of the policy, the net surrender value will never by less than that required by the non-forfeiture laws of your state.

Table of Contents

On a partial surrender, Transamerica will pay the policyholder the full amount of surrender requested (as long as the policy value is sufficient). Amounts surrendered will reduce the policy value by an amount equal to:

 

R - E + SC

 

R   =   the requested partial surrender;
E   =   the excess interest adjustment; and
SC   =   the surrender charges on (EPW - E); where
EPW   =   the excess partial withdrawal amount.

 

Example 3 (Partial Surrender, rates increase by 1%):

 

Single premium:    $50,000.00
Guarantee period:    5 Years
Guarantee rate:    5.50% per annum
Partial surrender:   

$20,000 (requested withdrawal amount after penalties);

middle of policy year 2

Policy value at middle of policy year 2    = 50,000.00 * (1.055) ^ 1.5 = 54,181.21
Cumulative Earnings    = 54,181.21 – 50,000.00 = 4,181.21
10% of Premium    = 50,000.00 * .10 = 5,000.00
Penalty free amount at middle of policy year 2    = 5,000.00
Amount free of excess interest adjustment    = 4,181.21
Excess interest adjustment/surrender charge     

S       = 20,000 – 4,181.21 = 15,818.79

C      = .065

    

M     = 42

    

E       = 15,818.79 * (.055 - .065) * (42/12) = -553.66

    
EPW = 20,000.00 - 5,000.00 = 15,000.00     

To receive the full $20,000 partial surrender amount, we must “gross-up” the EPW amount to account for the surrender charges to be deducted. This is done by dividing the EPW by (1 – surrender charge).

New EPW = 15,000/(1 - .08) = 16,304.35

    
SC = .08 * (16,304.35 – (-553.66)) = 1,348.64     
Remaining policy value at middle of policy year 2    = 54,181.21 - (R - E + surrender charge)
     = 54,181.21 - (20,000.00 - (-553.66) + 1,348.64) = 32,278.91

Policy value at middle of policy year 2    = 50,000.00 * (1.055) ^ 1.5 = 54,181.21
Cumulative Earnings    = 54,181.21 – 50,000.00 = 4,181.21

EPW = 20,000.00 - 5,000.00 = 15,000.00     

To receive the full $20,000 partial surrender amount, we must “gross-up” the EPW amount to account for the surrender charges to be deducted. This is done by dividing the EPW by (1 – surrender charge).

New EPW = 15,000/(1 - .08) = 16,304.35

    
SC = .08 * (16,304.35 – 553.66) = 1,260.06     
Remaining policy value at middle of policy year 2    = 54,181.21 - (R - E + surrender charge)
     = 54,181.21 - (20,000.00 – 553.66 + 1,260.06) = 33,474.81

 

Reallocation of Annuity Units After the Annuity Commencement Date

 

After the annuity commencement date, you may reallocate the value of a designated number of annuity units of a subaccount then credited to a policy into an equal value of annuity units of one or more other subaccounts or the fixed account. The reallocation shall be based on the relative value of the annuity units of the account(s) or subaccount(s) at the end of the business day on the next payment date. The minimum amount which may be reallocated is the lesser of (1) $10 of monthly income or (2) the entire monthly income of the annuity units in the account or subaccount from which the transfer is being made. If the monthly income of the annuity units remaining in an account or subaccount after a reallocation is less than $10, Transamerica reserves the right to include the value of those annuity units as part of the transfer. The request must be in writing to Transamerica’s administrative and service office. There is no charge assessed in connection with such reallocation. A reallocation of annuity units may be made up to four times in any given policy year.

 

After the annuity commencement date, no transfers may be made from the fixed account to the separate account.

Annuity Payment Options

 

Note: Portions of the following discussion do not apply to annuity payments under the Initial Payment Guarantee. See the “Stabilized Payments” section of this SAI.

 

During the lifetime of the annuitant and prior to the annuity commencement date, the owner may choose an annuity payment option or change the election, but written notice of any election or change of election must be received by Transamerica at its administrative and service office at least thirty (30) days prior to the annuity commencement date. If no election is made prior to the annuity commencement date, annuity payments will be made under (1) Payment Option 3, life income with level payments for 10 years certain, using the existing adjusted policy value of the fixed account, or (2) under Payment Option 3, life income with variable payments for 10 years certain using the existing policy value of the separate account, or (3) in a combination of (1) and (2).

 

The person who elects an annuity payment option can also name one or more successor payees to receive any unpaid amount Transamerica has at the death of a payee. Naming these payees cancels any prior choice of a successor payee.

 

A payee who did not elect the annuity payment option does not have the right to advance or assign payments, take the payments in one sum, or make any other change. However, the payee may be given the right to do one or more of these things if the person who elects the option tells Transamerica in writing and Transamerica agrees.

 

Variable Payment Options. The dollar amount of the first variable annuity payment will be determined in accordance with the annuity payment rates set forth in the applicable table contained in the policy. For annuity payments the tables are based on a 5% effective annual Assumed Investment Return and the “2000 Table”, using an assumed annuity commencement date of 2005 (static projection to this point) with dynamic projection using scale G from that point (100% of G for male, 50% of G for females). The dollar amount of additional variable annuity payments will vary based on the investment performance of the subaccount(s) of the separate account selected by the annuitant or beneficiary.

 

Determination of the First Variable Payment. The amount of the first variable payment depends upon the sex (if consideration of sex is allowed under state law) and adjusted age of the annuitant. For regular annuity payments, the adjusted age is the annuitant’s actual age nearest birthday, on the annuity commencement date, adjusted as follows:

 

Annuity Commencement Date


  

Adjusted Age


Before 2010

   Actual Age

2010-2019

   Actual Age minus 1

2020-2026

   Actual Age minus 2

2027-2033

   Actual Age minus 3

2034-2040

   Actual Age minus 4

After 2040

   As determined by Transamerica

 

This adjustment assumes an increase in life expectancy, and therefore it results in lower payments than without such an adjustment.

Table of Contents

Determination of Additional Variable Payments. All variable annuity payments other than the first are calculated using annuity units which are credited to the policy. The number of annuity units to be credited in respect of a particular subaccount is determined by dividing that portion of the first variable annuity payment attributable to that subaccount by the annuity unit value of that subaccount on the annuity commencement date. The number of annuity units of each particular subaccount credited to the policy then remains fixed, assuming no transfers to or from that subaccount occur. The dollar value of variable annuity units in the chosen subaccount will increase or decrease reflecting the investment experience of the chosen subaccount. The dollar amount of each variable annuity payment after the first may increase, decrease or remain constant. This amount is equal to the sum of the amounts determined by multiplying the number of annuity units of each particular subaccount credited to the policy by the annuity unit value for the particular subaccount on the date the payment is made.

 

Death Benefit

 

Adjusted Partial Surrender. The amount of your guaranteed minimum death benefit is reduced due to a partial surrender by an amount called the adjusted partial surrender. The reduction amount depends on the relationship between your death benefit and policy value. The adjusted partial surrender is equal to (1) plus (2) multiplied by (3), where:

 

(1) is the amount of the gross partial surrender that is less than the remaining annual adjustment-free amount for the policy year. For the Return of Premium death benefit this amount is equal to zero;

 

(2) is the gross partial surrender amount that exceeds the annual adjustment-free amount (excess gross partial surrender);

 

(3) is the adjustment factor = current death proceeds after the annual free surrender amount but prior to the excess gross partial surrender divided by the policy value after the free amount but prior to the gross partial surrender.

 

The following examples describe the effect of a surrender on the guaranteed minimum death benefit and policy value.

 

Example 1

(Assumed Facts for Example)

$ 75,000     current guaranteed minimum death benefit before surrender
$ 50,000     current policy value before surrender
$ 75,000     current death proceeds
  6 %   current surrender charge percentage
$ 15,000     Requested surrender (requested amount including penalties)
$ 3,000     Remaining guaranteed minimum death benefit adjustment free amount
$ 5,000     Surrender charge-free amount (assumes penalty free surrender is available)
$ 10,000     excess partial surrender (amount subject to surrender charge)
$ 100     excess interest adjustment (assumes interest rates have decreased since initial guarantee)
$ 594    

Surrender charge on (excess partial surrender less excess interest adjustment)

= 0.06* (10,000 - 100)

$ 10,494     Reduction in policy value due to excess partial surrender = 10,000 - 100 + 594
$ 15,494     Total Gross Partial Surrender
$ 22,140     adjusted partial surrender = 3,000 + (15,494 – 3,000) * (75,000 – 3,000) / (50,000 – 3,000)
$ 52,860     New guaranteed minimum death benefit (after surrender) = 75,000 – 22,140
$ 34,506     New policy value (after surrender) = 50,000 - 15,494

Summary:     

Reduction in guaranteed minimum death benefit

   = $22,140

Reduction in policy value

   = $15,494

 

Note, guaranteed minimum death benefit is reduced more than the policy value since the guaranteed minimum death benefit was greater than the policy value just prior to the surrender.

reduction in policy value due to excess partial surrender

= 7500 - (- 100) + 456 = 7500 + 100 + 456

$ 15,556     total Gross Partial Surrender = 7,500 + 8,056
$ 15,556     adjusted partial surrender = 1,000 + (7,500 + 8056 – 1,000) * (75,000 – 1,000) / (75,000 – 1,000)
$ 34,444     new guaranteed minimum death benefit (after surrender) = 50,000 - 15,556
$ 59,444     new policy value (after surrender) = 75,000 - 15,556

 

Summary:     

Reduction in guaranteed minimum death benefit

   = $15,556

Reduction in policy value

   = $15,556

 

Note, the guaranteed minimum death benefit and policy value are reduced by the same amount since the policy value was higher than the guaranteed minimum death benefit just prior to the surrender.

 

Due proof of death of the annuitant is proof that the annuitant died prior to the commencement of annuity payments. A certified copy of a death certificate, a certified copy of a decree of a court of competent jurisdiction as to the finding of death, a written statement by the attending physician, or any other proof satisfactory to Transamerica will constitute due proof of death.

 

Upon receipt (at our administrative and service office) of this proof and an election of a method of settlement and return of the policy, the death benefit generally will be paid within seven days, or as soon thereafter as Transamerica has sufficient information about the beneficiary to make the payment. The beneficiary may receive the amount payable in a lump sum cash benefit, or, subject to any limitation under any state or federal law, rule, or regulation, under one of the annuity payment options described above, unless a settlement agreement is effective at the death of the owner preventing such election.

Table of Contents

Distribution Requirements. If the annuitant dies prior to the annuity commencement date, (1) the death benefit must be distributed within five years of the date of the deceased’s death, or (2) payments under an annuity payment option must begin no later than one year after the deceased owner’s death and must be made for the beneficiary’s lifetime or for a period certain (so long as any period certain does not exceed the beneficiary’s life expectancy). Death proceeds, which are not paid to or for the benefit of a natural person, must be distributed within five years of the date of the deceased’s death. If the sole beneficiary is the deceased’s surviving spouse, however, such spouse may elect to continue the policy as the new annuitant and owner instead of receiving the death benefit.

 

If an owner is not an annuitant, and dies prior to the annuity commencement date, certain distribution requirements apply. See “Death of Owner” below.

 

Beneficiary. The beneficiary designation in the enrollment form will remain in effect until changed. The owner may change the designated beneficiary by sending written notice to Transamerica. The beneficiary’s consent to such change is not required unless the beneficiary was irrevocably designated or law requires consent. (If an irrevocable beneficiary dies, the owner may then designate a new beneficiary.) The change will take effect as of the date the owner signs the written notice, whether or not the owner is living when the notice is received by Transamerica. Transamerica will not be liable for any payment made before the written notice is received. If more than one beneficiary is designated, and the owner fails to specify their interests, they will share equally. If upon the death of the annuitant there is a surviving owner(s), the surviving owner(s) automatically takes the place of any beneficiary designation.

 

Death of Owner

 

Federal tax law requires that if any owner (including any joint owner who has become a current owner) dies before the annuity commencement date, then the entire value of the policy must generally be distributed within five years of the date of death of such owner. Certain rules apply where (1) the spouse of the deceased owner is the sole beneficiary, (2) the owner is not a natural person and the primary annuitant dies or is changed, or (3) any owner dies after the annuity commencement date. See “Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences” for more information about these rules. Other rules may apply to qualified policies.

 

Assignment

 

During the lifetime of the annuitant you may assign any rights or benefits provided by the policy if your policy is a nonqualified policy. An assignment will not be binding on Transamerica until a copy has been filed at its administrative and service office. Your rights and benefits and those of the beneficiary are subject to the rights of the assignee. Transamerica assumes no responsibility for the validity or effect of any assignment. Any claim made under an assignment shall be subject to proof of interest and the extent of the assignment. An assignment may have tax consequences.

 

Unless you so direct by filing written notice with Transamerica, no beneficiary may assign any payments under the policy before they are due. To the extent permitted by law, no payments will be subject to the claims of any beneficiary’s creditors.

 

Ownership under qualified policies is restricted to comply with the Code.

Table of Contents

Evidence of Survival

 

Transamerica reserves the right to require satisfactory evidence that a person is alive if a payment is based on that person being alive. No payment will be made until Transamerica receives such evidence.

 

Non-Participating

 

The policy will not share in Transamerica’s surplus earnings; no dividends will be paid.

 

Amendments

 

No change in the policy is valid unless made in writing by Transamerica and approved by one of Transamerica’s officers. No registered representative has authority to change or waive any provision of the policy.

 

Transamerica reserves the right to amend the policies to meet the requirements of the Code, regulations or published rulings. You can refuse such a change by giving written notice, but a refusal may result in adverse tax consequences.

 

Employee and Agent Purchases

 

The policy may be acquired by an employee or registered representative of any broker/dealer authorized to sell the policy or their immediate family, or by an officer, director, trustee or bona-fide full-time employee of Transamerica or its affiliated companies or their immediate family. In such a case, Transamerica may credit an amount equal to a percentage of each premium payment to the policy due to lower acquisition costs Transamerica experiences on those purchases. The credit will be reported to the Internal Revenue Service as taxable income to the employee or registered representative. Transamerica may offer certain employer sponsored savings plans, in its discretion reduced fees and charges including, but not limited to, the annual service charge, the surrender charges, the mortality and expense risk fee and the administrative charge for certain sales under circumstances which may result in savings of certain costs and expenses. In addition, there may be other circumstances of which Transamerica is not presently aware which could result in reduced sales or distribution expenses. Credits to the policy or reductions in these fees and charges will not be unfairly discriminatory against any owner.

 

Present Value of Future Variable Payments

 

The present value of future variable payments is calculated by taking (a) the supportable payment on the business day we receive the surrender request, times (b) the number of payments remaining, discounted using a discount rate.

Table of Contents

Stabilized Payments

 

If you have selected a payout feature that provides for stabilized payments, please note that the stabilized payments remain constant throughout each year and are adjusted on your policy anniversary. Without stabilized payments, each payment throughout the year would fluctuate based on the performance of your selected subaccounts. To reflect the difference in these payments we adjust (both increase and decrease as appropriate) the number of annuity units. The units are adjusted when we calculate the supportable payment. Supportable payments are used in the calculation of surrender values, death benefits and transfers. On your policy anniversary we set the new stabilized payment equal to the current supportable payment. In the case of an increase in the number of variable annuity units, your participation in the future investment performance will be increased since more variable annuity units are credited to you. Conversely, in the case of a reduction of the number of variable annuity units, your participation in the future investment performance will be decreased since fewer variable annuity units are credited to you.

 

The following table demonstrates, on a purely hypothetical basis, the changes in the number of variable annuity units. The changes in the variable annuity unit values reflect the investment performance of the applicable subaccounts as well as the separate account charge.

CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

 

The following summary does not constitute tax advice. It is a general discussion of certain of the expected federal income tax consequences of investment in and distributions with respect to a policy, based on the Code, Regulations thereunder, judicial authority, and current administrative rulings and practice. This summary discusses only certain federal income tax consequences to “United States Persons,” and does not discuss state, local, or foreign tax consequences. United States Persons means citizens or residents of the United States, domestic corporations, domestic partnerships and trusts, or estates that are subject to United States federal income tax regardless of the source of their income.

 

Tax Status of the Policy

 

The following discussion is based on the assumption that the policy qualifies as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes.

 

Diversification Requirements. Section 817(h) of the Code provides that in order for a variable contract which is based on a segregated asset account to qualify as an annuity contract under the Code, the investments made by such account must be “adequately diversified” in accordance with Treasury Regulations. The Regulations issued under Section 817(h) (Treas. Reg. §1.817-5) apply a diversification requirement to each of the subaccounts. The separate account, through its underlying fund portfolios and their portfolios, intends to comply with the diversification requirements of the Regulations. We have entered into agreements with each underlying fund portfolio company that require the portfolios to be operated in compliance with the Regulations.

 

Owner Control. In some circumstances, owners of variable contracts who retain excessive control over the investment of the underlying separate account assets may be treated as the owners of those assets and may be subject to tax on income produced by those assets. Although there is little guidance in this area and published guidance does not address certain aspects of the policies, we believe that the owner of a policy should not be treated as the owner of the underlying assets. We reserve the right to modify the policies to bring them into conformity with applicable standards should such modification be necessary to prevent owners of the policies from being treated as the owners of the underlying separate account assets.

 

Distribution Requirements. The Code requires that nonqualified policies contain specific provisions for distribution of policy proceeds upon the death of any owner. In order to be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes, the Code requires that such policies provide that if any owner dies on or after the annuity commencement date and before the entire interest in the policy has been distributed, the remaining portion must be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method in effect on such owner’s death. If any owner dies before the annuity commencement date, the entire interest in the policy must generally be distributed within 5 years after such owner’s date of death or be used to provide payments to a designated beneficiary beginning within one year of such owner’s death and will be made for the life of the beneficiary or for a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the beneficiary. However, if upon such owner’s death prior to the annuity commencement date, such owner’s surviving spouse becomes the sole new owner under the policy, then the policy may be continued with the surviving spouse as the new owner. Under the policy, the beneficiary is the person(s) designated by an owner/annuitant and the surviving joint owner is the beneficiary of an owner who is not the annuitant. If any owner is not a natural person, then for purposes of these distribution requirements, the primary annuitant shall be treated as an owner and any death or change of such primary annuitant shall be treated as the death of an owner. The nonqualified policies contain provisions intended to

 

19


Table of Contents

comply with these requirements of the Code. No regulations interpreting these requirements of the Code have yet been issued and thus no assurance can be given that the provisions contained in the policies satisfy all such Code requirements. The provisions contained in the policies will be reviewed and modified if necessary to assure that they comply with the Code requirements when clarified by regulation or otherwise.

 

Taxation of Annuities

 

In General. Code Section 72 governs taxation of annuities in general. We believe that an owner who is an individual will not be taxed on increases in the value of a policy until such amounts are surrendered or distributed. For this purpose, the assignment, pledge, or agreement to assign or pledge any portion of the policy value, and in the case of a qualified policy, any portion of an interest in the plan, generally will be treated as a distribution. The taxable portion of a distribution is taxable as ordinary income.

 

Non-Natural Persons. Pursuant to Section 72(u) of the Code, a nonqualified policy held by a taxpayer other than a natural person generally will not be treated as an annuity contract under the Code; accordingly, an owner who is not a natural person will recognize as ordinary income for a taxable year the excess, if any, of the policy value over the “investment in the contract”. There are some exceptions to this rule and a prospective purchaser of the policy that is not a natural person should discuss these with a competent tax adviser.

 

Withholding. The portion of any distribution under a policy that is includable in gross income will be subject to federal income tax withholding unless the recipient of such distribution elects not to have federal income tax withheld. Election forms will be provided at the time distributions are requested or made. For certain qualified policies, the withholding rate varies according to the type of distribution and the owner’s tax status. For qualified policies, “taxable eligible rollover distributions” from Section 401(a) plans, Section 403(a) annuities, Section 403(b) tax-sheltered annuities, and governmental 457 plans are subject to a mandatory federal income tax withholding of 20%. An eligible rollover distribution is any distribution to an employee (or an employee’s spouse or former spouse as beneficiary or alternate payee) from such a plan, other than specified distributions such as distributions required by the Code, distributions in a specified annuity form or hardship distributions. The 20% withholding do not apply, however, if the owner chooses a “direct rollover” from the plan to another tax-qualified plan or IRA. Different withholding requirements may apply in the case of non-United States persons.

 

Qualified Policies. The qualified policy is designed for use with several types of tax-qualified retirement plans. The tax rules applicable to participants and beneficiaries in tax-qualified retirement plans vary according to the type of plan and the terms and conditions of the plan. Special favorable tax treatment may be available for certain types of contributions and distributions. Adverse tax consequences may result from contributions in excess of specified limits; distributions prior to age 59½ (subject to certain exceptions); distributions that do not conform to specified commencement and minimum distribution rules; and in other specified circumstances. Some retirement plans are subject to distribution and other requirements that are not incorporated into the policies or our policy administration procedures. Owners, participants, and beneficiaries are responsible for determining that contributions, distributions, and other transactions with respect to the policies comply with applicable law.

 

For qualified plans under Section 401(a), 403(a), 403(b), and 457, the Code requires that distributions generally must commence no later than the later of April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the owner (or plan participant) (i) reaches age 70 ½ or (ii) retires, and must be made in a specified form or manner. If

 

20


Table of Contents

a participant in a Section 401(a) plan is a “5 percent owner” (as defined in the Code), or in the case of an IRA (other than a Roth IRA), distributions generally must begin no later than April 1 of the calendar year in which the owner (or plan participant) reaches age 70 ½. Each owner is responsible for requesting distributions under the policy that satisfy applicable tax rules.

 

We do not attempt to provide more than general information about use of the policy with the various types of retirement plans. Purchasers of policies for use with any retirement plan should consult their legal counsel and tax adviser regarding the suitability of the policy.

In order to qualify as a traditional individual retirement annuity under Section 408(b) of the Code, a policy must contain certain provisions: (i) the owner must be the annuitant; (ii) the policy generally is not transferable by the owner, e.g., the owner may not designate a new owner, designate a contingent owner or assign the policy as collateral security; (iii) subject to special rules, the total premium payments for any calendar year may not exceed the amount specified in the Code ($3,000 for 2004, $3,500 if age 50 or older), except in the case of a rollover amount or contribution under Section 402(c), 402(e)(6), 403(a)(4), 403(b)(8), 403(b)(10), 408(d)(3) or 457(e)(16) of the Code; (iv) annuity payments or partial surrenders must begin no later than April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the annuitant attains age 70 ½; (v) an annuity payment option with a period certain that will guarantee annuity payments beyond the life expectancy of the annuitant and the beneficiary may not be selected; (vi) certain payments of death benefits must be made in the event the annuitant dies prior to the distribution of the policy value; and (vii) the entire interest of the owner is non-forfeitable. Policies intended to qualify as traditional individual retirement annuities under Section 408(b) of the Code contain such provisions. Amounts in the IRA (other than nondeductible contributions) are taxed when distributed from the IRA. Distributions prior to age 59 ½ (unless certain exceptions apply) are subject to a 10% penalty tax.

 

The Internal Revenue Service has not reviewed the policy for qualification as an IRA and has not addressed in a ruling of general applicability whether the death benefit options and riders available with the policies comport with IRA qualification requirements.

 

Roth Individual Retirement Annuities (Roth IRA). The Roth IRA, under Section 408A of the Code, contains many of the same provisions as a traditional IRA. However, there are some differences. First, the contributions are not deductible and must be made in cash or as a rollover or transfer from another Roth IRA or other IRA. A rollover from or conversion of an IRA to a Roth IRA may be subject to tax and other special rules may apply to the rollover or conversion and to distributions attributable thereto. The Roth IRA is available to individuals with earned income and whose modified adjusted gross income is under $110,000 for single filers, $160,000 for married filing jointly, and $10,000 for married filing separately. Subject to special rules, the amount per individual that may be contributed to all IRAs (Roth and traditional) is the deductible amount specified in the Code ($3,000 for 2004, $3,500 if age 50 or older). Secondly, the distributions are taxed differently. The Roth IRA offers tax-free distributions when made 5 tax years after the first contribution to any Roth IRA of the individual and made after attaining age 59 ½, to pay for qualified first time homebuyer expenses (lifetime maximum of $10,000), or due to death or disability. All other distributions are subject to income tax when made from earnings and may be subject to a penalty tax unless an exception applies. Unlike the traditional IRA, there are no minimum required distributions during the owner’s lifetime; however, required distributions at death are generally the same as for traditional IRAs.

Section 403(b) Plans. Under Section 403(b) of the Code, payments made by public school systems and certain tax exempt organizations to purchase policies for their employees are excludable from the gross income of the employee, subject to certain limitations. However, such payments may be subject to FICA (Social Security) taxes. The policy includes a death benefit that in some cases may exceed the greater of the premium payments or the policy value. The death benefit could be characterized as an incidental benefit, the amount of which is limited in any tax-sheltered annuity under Section 403(b). Therefore, employers using the policy in connection with such plans should consult their tax adviser. Additionally, in accordance with the requirements of the Code, Section 403(b) annuities generally may not permit distribution of (i) elective contributions made in years beginning after December 31, 1988, and (ii) earnings on those contributions, and (iii) earnings on amounts attributed to elective contributions held as of the end of the last year beginning before January 1, 1989. Distributions of such amounts will be allowed only upon the death of the employee, on or after attainment of age 59 ½, severance from employment, disability, or financial hardship, except that income attributable to elective contributions may not be distributed in the case of hardship.

 

Corporate Pension and Profit-Sharing Plans and H.R. 10 Plans. Sections 401(a) and 403(a) of the Code permit corporate employers to establish various types of retirement plans for employees and self-employed individuals to establish qualified plans for themselves and their employees. Such retirement plans may permit the purchase of the policies to accumulate retirement savings. Adverse tax consequences to the plan, the participant or both may result if the policy is assigned or transferred to any individual as a means to provide benefit payments. The policy includes a death benefit that in some cases may exceed the greater of the premium payments or the policy value. The death benefit could be characterized as an incidental benefit, the amount of which is limited in a pension or profit sharing plan. Therefore, employers using the policy in connection with such plans should consult their tax adviser.

 

Deferred Compensation Plans. Section 457 of the Code, while not actually providing for a qualified plan as that term is normally used, provides for certain deferred compensation plans with respect to service for state governments, local governments, political subdivisions, agencies, instrumentalities, and certain affiliates of such entities, and tax exempt organizations. The policies can be used with such plans. Under such plans a participant may specify the form of investment in which his or her participation will be made. For non-governmental Section 457 plans, all such investments, however, are owned by, and are subject to, the claims of the general creditors of the sponsoring employer. Depending on the terms of the particular plan, a non-government employer may be entitled to draw on deferred amounts for purposes unrelated to its Section 457 plan obligations. In general, all amounts received under a non-governmental Section 457 plan are taxable and are subject to federal income tax withholding as wages.

 

Taxation of the Company

 

The Company at present is taxed as a life insurance company under part I of Subchapter L of the Code. The separate account is treated as part of the Company and, accordingly, will not be taxed separately as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Code. We do not expect to incur any federal income tax liability with respect to investment income and net capital gains arising from the activities of the separate account retained as part of the reserves under the policy. Based on this expectation, it is anticipated that no charges will be made against the separate account for federal income taxes. If, in future years, any federal income taxes are incurred by us with respect to the separate account, we may make a charge to that account.

INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE

 

A “net investment factor” is used to determine the value of accumulation units and annuity units, and to determine annuity payment rates.

 

Accumulation Units

 

Allocations of a premium payment directed to a subaccount are credited in the form of accumulation units. Each subaccount has a distinct accumulation unit value. The number of units credited is determined by dividing the premium payment or amount transferred to the subaccount by the accumulation unit value of the subaccount as of the end of the valuation period during which the allocation is made. For each subaccount, the accumulation unit value for a given business day is based on the net asset value of a share of the corresponding portfolio of the underlying fund portfolios less any applicable charges or fees. The investment performance of the portfolio, expenses, and deductions of certain charges affect the value of an accumulation unit.

 

Upon allocation to the selected subaccount, premium payments are converted into accumulation units of the subaccount. The number of accumulation units to be credited is determined by dividing the dollar amount allocated to each subaccount by the value of an accumulation unit for that subaccount as next determined after the premium payment is received at the administrative and service office or, in the case of the initial premium payment, when the enrollment form is completed, whichever is later. The value of an accumulation unit for each subaccount was arbitrarily established at $1 at the inception of each subaccount. Thereafter, the value of an accumulation unit is determined as of the close of trading on each day the New York Stock Exchange is open for business.

 

An index (the “net investment factor”) which measures the investment performance of a subaccount during a valuation period, is used to determine the value of an accumulation unit for the next subsequent valuation period. The net investment factor may be greater or less than or equal to one; therefore, the value of an accumulation unit may increase, decrease, or remain the same from one valuation period to the next. You bear this investment risk. The net investment performance of a subaccount and deduction of certain charges affect the accumulation unit value.

 

The net investment factor for any subaccount for any valuation period is determined by dividing (a) by (b) and subtracting (c) from the result, where:

 

(a) is the net result of:

 

  (1) the net asset value per share of the shares held in the subaccount determined at the end of the current valuation period, plus

 

  (2) the per share amount of any dividend or capital gain distribution made with respect to the shares held in the subaccount if the ex-dividend date occurs during the current valuation period, plus or minus

 

  (3) a per share credit or charge for any taxes determined by Transamerica to have resulted during the valuation period from the investment operations of the subaccount;

 

(b) is the net asset value per share of the shares held in the subaccount determined as of the end of the immediately preceding valuation period; and

 

(c) is an amount representing the separate account charge and any optional benefit fees, if applicable.

Annuity Unit Value and Annuity Payment Rates

 

The amount of variable annuity payments will vary with annuity unit values. Annuity unit values rise if the net investment performance of the subaccount exceeds the annual assumed investment return of 5% annually. Conversely, annuity unit values fall if the net investment performance of the subaccount is less than the annual assumed investment return. The value of a variable annuity unit in each subaccount was established at $1 on the date operations began for that subaccount. The value of a variable annuity unit on any subsequent business day is equal to (a) multiplied by (b) multiplied by (c), where:

 

(a) is the variable annuity unit value for the subaccount on the immediately preceding business day;

 

(b) is the net investment factor for that subaccount for the valuation period; and

 

(c) is the investment result adjustment factor for the valuation period.

 

The investment result adjustment factor for the valuation period is the product of discount factors of .99986634 per day to recognize the 5% effective annual assumed investment return. The valuation period is the period from the close of the immediately preceding business day to the close of the current business day.

 

The net investment factor for the policy used to calculate the value of a variable annuity unit in each subaccount for the valuation period is determined by dividing (i) by (ii) and subtracting (iii) from the result, where:

 

  (i) is the result of:

 

(1) the net asset value of a fund share held in that subaccount determined at the end of the current valuation period; plus

 

(2) the per share amount of any dividend or capital gain distributions made by the fund for shares held in that subaccount if the ex-dividend date occurs during the valuation period; plus or minus

 

(3) a per share charge or credit for any taxes reserved for, which Transamerica determines to have resulted from the investment operations of the subaccount.

 

(ii) is the net asset value of a fund share held in that subaccount determined as of the end of the immediately preceding valuation period.

 

(iii) is a factor representing the mortality and expense risk fee and administrative charge. This factor is equal, on an annual basis, to 1.25% of the daily net asset value of a fund share held in that subaccount. (For calculating or Initial Payment Guarantee annuity payments, the factor is 1.25% higher at a rate of 2.50%).

 

The dollar amount of subsequent variable annuity payments will depend upon changes in applicable annuity unit values.

 

The annuity payment rates vary according to the annuity option elected and the sex and adjusted age of the annuitant at the annuity commencement date. The policy also contains a table for determining the adjusted age of the annuitant.

HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE DATA

 

Money Market Yields

 

Transamerica may from time to time disclose the current annualized yield of the Transamerica Money Market Subaccount, which invests in the Transamerica Money Market Portfolio, for a 7-day period in a manner which does not take into consideration any realized or unrealized gains or losses on shares of the Transamerica Money Market Portfolio or on its portfolio securities. This current annualized yield is computed by determining the net change (exclusive of realized gains and losses on the sale of securities and unrealized appreciation and depreciation and income other than investment income) at the end of the 7-day period in the value of a hypothetical account having a balance of 1 unit of the Transamerica Money Market Subaccount at the beginning of the 7-day period, dividing such net change in account value by the value of the account at the beginning of the period to determine the base period return, and annualizing this quotient on a 365-day basis. The net change in account value reflects (i) net income from the portfolio attributable to the hypothetical account; and (ii) charges and deductions imposed under a policy that are attributable to the hypothetical account. The charges and deductions include the per unit charges for the hypothetical account for (i) the administrative charges and (ii) the mortality and expense risk fee. Current yield will be calculated according to the following formula:

 

Current Yield = ((NCS * ES)/UV) * (365/7)

 

Where:

 

NCS

  =   The net change in the value of the portfolio (exclusive of realized gains and losses on the sale of securities and unrealized appreciation and depreciation and income other than investment income) for the 7-day period attributable to a hypothetical account having a balance of 1 subaccount unit.

ES

  =   Per unit expenses of the subaccount for the 7-day period.

UV

  =   The unit value on the first day of the 7-day period.

 

Because of the charges and deductions imposed under a policy, the yield for the Transamerica Money Market Subaccount will be lower than the yield for the Transamerica Money Market Portfolio. The yield calculations do not reflect the effect of any premium taxes or surrender charges that may be applicable to a particular policy. Surrender charges range from 8% to 0% of the amount of premium payments surrendered based on the number

 

28


Table of Contents

of years since the premium payment was made. However, surrender charges will not be assessed after the seventh policy year.

 

Transamerica may also disclose the effective yield of the Transamerica Money Market Subaccount for the same 7-day period, determined on a compounded basis. The effective yield is calculated by compounding the base period return according to the following formula:

 

Effective Yield = (1 + ((NCS – ES)/UV))365/7 – 1

 

Where:

 

NCS

  =   The net change in the value of the portfolio (exclusive of realized gains and losses on the sale of securities and unrealized appreciation and depreciation and income other than investment income) for the 7-day period attributable to a hypothetical account having a balance of 1 subaccount unit.

ES

  =   Per unit expenses of the subaccount for the 7-day period.

UV

  =   The unit value on the first day of the 7-day period.

 

The yield on amounts held in the Transamerica Money Market Subaccount normally will fluctuate on a daily basis. Therefore, the disclosed yield for any given past period is not an indication or representation of future yields or rates of return. The Transamerica Money Market Subaccount’s actual yield is affected by changes in interest rates on money market securities, average portfolio maturity of the Transamerica Money Market Portfolio, the types and quality of portfolio securities held by the Transamerica Money Market Portfolio and its operating expenses.

 

Other Subaccount Yields

 

Transamerica may from time to time advertise or disclose the current annualized yield of one or more of the subaccounts (except the Transamerica Money Market Subaccount) for 30-day periods. The annualized yield of a subaccount refers to income generated by the subaccount over a specific 30-day period. Because the yield is annualized, the yield generated by a subaccount during the 30-day period is assumed to be generated each 30-day period over a 12-month period. The yield is computed by: (i) dividing the net investment income of the subaccount less subaccount expenses for the period, by (ii) the maximum offering price per unit on the last day of the period times the daily average number of units outstanding for the period, (iii) compounding that yield for a 6-month period, and (iv) multiplying that result by 2. Expenses attributable to the subaccount include (i) the administrative charges and (ii) the mortality and expense risk fee. The 30-day yield is calculated according to the following formula:

 

Yield = 2 * ((((NI – ES)/(U – UV)) + 1)6 –1)

 

Where:

 

NI

  =   Net investment income of the subaccount for the 30-day period attributable to the subaccount’s unit.

ES

  =   Expenses of the subaccount for the 30-day period.

U

  =   The average number of units outstanding.

UV

  =   The unit value at the close (highest) of the last day in the 30-day period.

 

29


Table of Contents

Because of the charges and deductions imposed by the separate account, the yield for a subaccount will be lower than the yield for its corresponding portfolio. The yield calculations do not reflect the effect of any premium taxes or surrender charges that may be applicable to a particular policy. Surrender charges range from 8% to 0% of the amount of premium payments surrendered based on the number of years since the premium payment was made.

 

The yield on amounts held in the subaccounts normally will fluctuate over time. Therefore, the disclosed yield for any given past period is not an indication or representation of future yields or rates of return. The types and quality of its investments and its operating expenses affect a subaccount’s actual yield.

 

Total Returns

 

Transamerica may from time to time also advertise or disclose total returns for one or more of the subaccounts for various periods of time. One of the periods of time will include the period measured from the date the subaccount commenced operations. When a subaccount has been in operation for 1, 5 and 10 years, respectively, the total return for these periods will be provided. Total returns for other periods of time may from time to time also be disclosed. Total returns represent the average annual compounded rates of return that would equate an initial investment of $1,000 to the redemption value of that investment as of the last day of each of the periods. The ending date for each period for which total return quotations are provided will be for the most recent month end practicable, considering the type and media of the communication and will be stated in the communication.

 

Total returns will be calculated using subaccount unit values which Transamerica calculates on each business day based on the performance of the separate account’s underlying fund portfolio and the deductions for the mortality and expense risk fee and the administrative charges. Total return calculations will reflect the effect of surrender charges that may be applicable to a particular period. The total return will then be calculated according to the following formula:

 

P (1 + T)N = ERV

 

Where:

 

T

  =   The average annual total return net of subaccount recurring charges.

ERV

  =   The ending redeemable value of the hypothetical account at the end of the period.

P

  =   A hypothetical initial payment of $1,000.

N

  =   The number of years in the period.

Other Performance Data

 

Transamerica may from time to time also disclose average annual total returns in a non-standard format in conjunction with the standard format described above. The non-standard format will be identical to the standard format except that the surrender charge percentage will be assumed to be 0%.

 

Transamerica may from time to time also disclose cumulative total returns in conjunction with the standard format described above. The cumulative returns will be calculated using the following formula assuming that the surrender charge percentage will be 0%.

 

CTR = (ERV / P)-1

 

Where:

 

CTR

  =   The cumulative total return net of subaccount recurring charges for the period.

ERV

  =   The ending redeemable value of the hypothetical investment at the end of the period.

P

  =   A hypothetical initial payment of $1,000.

 

All non-standard performance data will only be advertised if the standard performance data is also disclosed.

 

Adjusted Historical Performance Data

 

From time to time, sales literature or advertisements may quote average annual total returns for periods prior to the date a particular subaccount commenced operations. Such performance information for the subaccounts will be calculated based on the performance of the various portfolios and the assumption that the subaccounts were in existence for the same periods as those indicated for the portfolios, with the level of policy charges that are currently in effect.

 

PUBLISHED RATINGS

 

Transamerica may from time to time publish in advertisements, sales literature and reports to owners, the ratings and other information assigned to it by one or more independent rating organizations such as A.M. Best Company, Standard & Poor’s Insurance Ratings Services, Moody’s Investors Service and Fitch Financial Ratings. The purpose of the ratings is to reflect the financial strength of Transamerica. The ratings should not be considered as bearing on the investment performance of assets held in the separate account or of the safety or riskiness of an investment in the separate account. Each year the A.M. Best Company reviews the financial status of thousands of insurers, culminating in the assignment of Best’s Ratings. These ratings reflect their current opinion of the relative financial strength and operating performance of an insurance company in comparison to the norms of the life/health insurance industry. In addition, these ratings may be referred to in advertisements or sales literature or in reports to owners. These ratings are opinions of an operating insurance company’s financial capacity to meet the obligations of its insurance policies in accordance with their terms.

 

STATE REGULATION OF TRANSAMERICA

 

Transamerica is subject to the laws of Iowa governing insurance companies and to regulation by the Iowa Division of Insurance. An annual statement in a prescribed form is filed with the Division of Insurance each year covering the operation of Transamerica for the preceding year and its financial condition as of the end of such

 

31


Table of Contents

year. Regulation by the Division of Insurance includes periodic examination to determine Transamerica’s contract liabilities and reserves so that the Division may determine the items are correct. Transamerica’s books and accounts are subject to review by the Division of Insurance at all times and a full examination of its operations is conducted periodically by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. In addition, Transamerica is subject to regulation under the insurance laws of other jurisdictions in which it may operate.

 

ADMINISTRATION

 

Transamerica performs administrative services for the policies. These services include issuance of the policies, maintenance of records concerning the policies, and certain valuation services.

 

RECORDS AND REPORTS

 

All records and accounts relating to the separate account will be maintained by Transamerica. As presently required by the 1940 Act, as amended, and regulations promulgated thereunder, Transamerica will mail to all owners at their last known address of record, at least annually, reports containing such information as may be required under that Act or by any other applicable law or regulation. Owners will also receive confirmation of each financial transaction and any other reports required by law or regulation. However, for certain routine transactions (for example, regular monthly premiums deducted from your checking account, or regular annuity payments Transamerica sends to you) you may only receive quarterly confirmations.

 

DISTRIBUTION OF THE POLICIES

 

The policies are offered to the public through brokers licensed under the federal securities laws and, as necessary, state insurance laws. The offering of the policies is continuous and we do not anticipate discontinuing the offering of the policies, however, we reserve the right to do so.

 

Our affiliate, AFSG Securities Corporation (“AFSG”), serves as principal underwriter for the policies. AFSG was incorporated in Pennsylvania, and its home office is located at 4333 Edgewood Road NE, Cedar Rapids, Iowa 52499-0001. AFSG, like us, is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of AEGON USA. AFSG is registered as broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and, as necessary, with the securities commissions in the states in which it operates, and is a member of NASD, Inc. The policies are offered to the public through broker-dealers (“selling firms”) licensed under the federal securities laws and state insurance laws that have entered into selling agreement with AFSG. The policies are sold through registered representatives of the selling firms who are appointed as our insurance agents. Commissions are paid to the selling firms under their respective agreements with AFSG.

 

During 2003, 2002, and 2001 the amount paid to AFSG and/or the selling firms for their services regarding the policies was $98,269,331.34, $175,893,055.30, and $41,169,013.97 respectively. AFSG passes through commissions it receives to the selling firms for their respective sales, and does not retain any portion of those commissions in return for its services as principal underwriter of the policies. However, under the agreement between us and AFSG, we pay AFSG’s operating and other expenses.

 

We and/or AFSG may pay the selling firms additional amounts for: (1) “preferred product” treatment of the policies in their marketing programs, which may include marketing services and increased access to their sales representatives; (2) sales promotions relating to the policies; (3) costs associated with sales conferences and educational seminars for its sales representatives; and (4) other sales expenses incurred by a selling firm and its representatives. We and/or AFSG may make payments to a selling firm based on aggregate sales or persistency standards. These additional payments are not

offered to all selling firms, and the terms of any particular agreement governing the payments may vary among selling firms.

 

VOTING RIGHTS

 

To the extent required by law, Transamerica will vote the underlying fund portfolios’ shares held by the separate account at regular and special shareholder meetings of the underlying fund portfolios in accordance with instructions received from persons having voting interests in the portfolios, although none of the underlying fund portfolios hold regular annual shareholder meetings. If, however, the 1940 Act or any regulation thereunder should be amended or if the present interpretation thereof should change, and as a result Transamerica determines that it is permitted to vote the underlying fund portfolios shares in its own right, it may elect to do so.

 

Before the annuity commencement date, you hold the voting interest in the selected portfolios. The number of votes that you have the right to instruct will be calculated separately for each subaccount. The number of votes that you have the right to instruct for a particular subaccount will be determined by dividing your policy value in the subaccount by the net asset value per share of the corresponding portfolio in which the subaccount invests. Fractional shares will be counted.

 

After the annuity commencement date, the person receiving annuity payments has the voting interest, and the number of votes decreases as annuity payments are made and as the reserves for the policy decrease. The person’s number of votes will be determined by dividing the reserve for the policy allocated to the applicable subaccount by the net asset value per share of the corresponding portfolio. Fractional shares will be counted.

 

The number of votes that you or the person receiving income payments has the right to instruct will be determined as of the date established by the underlying fund portfolio for determining shareholders eligible to vote at the meeting of the underlying fund portfolio. Transamerica will solicit voting instructions by sending you, or other persons entitled to vote, written requests for instructions prior to that meeting in accordance with procedures established by the underlying fund portfolio. Portfolio shares as to which no timely instructions are received and shares held by Transamerica in which you, or other persons entitled to vote, have no beneficial interest will be voted in proportion to the voting instructions that are received with respect to all policies participating in the same subaccount.

 

Each person having a voting interest in a subaccount will receive proxy material, reports, and other materials relating to the appropriate portfolio.

 

OTHER PRODUCTS

 

Transamerica makes other variable annuity policies available that may also be funded through the separate account. These variable annuity policies may have different features, such as different investment options or charges.

CUSTODY OF ASSETS

 

Transamerica holds assets of each of the subaccounts. The assets of each of the subaccounts are segregated and held separate and apart from the assets of the other subaccounts and from Transamerica’s general account assets. Transamerica maintains records of all purchases and redemptions of shares of the underlying fund portfolios held by each of the subaccounts. Additional protection for the assets of the separate account is afforded by Transamerica’s fidelity bond, presently in the amount of $5,000,000, covering the acts of officers and employees of Transamerica.

Report of Independent Auditors

 

The Board of Directors

Transamerica Life Insurance Company

 

We have audited the accompanying statutory-basis balance sheets of Transamerica Life Insurance Company, an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of AEGON N.V., as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related statutory-basis statements of operations, changes in capital and surplus, and cash flow for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003. Our audits also included the accompanying statutory-basis financial statement schedules required by Article 7 of Regulation S-X. These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company presents its financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Division, Department of Commerce, of the State of Iowa, which practices differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The variances between such practices and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States also are described in Note 1. The effects on the financial statements of these variances are not reasonably determinable but are presumed to be material.

 

In our opinion, because of the effects of the matter described in the preceding paragraph, the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, the financial position of Transamerica Life Insurance Company at December 31, 2003 and 2002, or the results of its operations or its cash flow for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003.

However, in our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Transamerica Life Insurance Company at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flow for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Division, Department of Commerce, of the State of Iowa. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic statutory-basis financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

 

As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, in 2002 Transamerica Life Insurance Company changed various accounting policies to be in accordance with Actuarial Guideline 39. Also as described in Note 2 to the financial statements, in 2003 Transamerica Life Insurance Company changed its accounting policy for derivative instruments.

 

As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, in 2001 Transamerica Life Insurance Company changed various accounting policies to be in accordance with the revised NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual, as adopted by the Insurance Division, Department of Commerce, of the State of Iowa.

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Organization

 

Transamerica Life Insurance Company (the Company) is a stock life insurance company and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Transamerica Holding Company, LLC (Transamerica Holding) which, in turn, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of AEGON USA, Inc. (AEGON). AEGON is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AEGON N.V., a holding company organized under the laws of The Netherlands.

 

Nature of Business

 

The Company sells individual non-participating whole life, endowment and term contracts, as well as a broad line of single fixed and flexible premium annuity products and guaranteed interest contracts and funding agreements. In addition, the Company offers group life, universal life, and individual and specialty health coverages. The Company is licensed in 49 states and the District of Columbia and Guam. Sales of the Company’s products are primarily through the Company’s agents and financial institutions.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The preparation of financial statements of insurance companies requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein.

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Division, Department of Commerce, of the State of Iowa, which practices differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The more significant variances from GAAP are:

 

Investments: Investments in bonds and mandatory redeemable preferred stocks are reported at amortized cost or market value based on their rating by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC); for GAAP, such fixed maturity investments would be designated at purchase as held-to-maturity, trading, or available-for-sale. Held-to-maturity fixed investments would be reported at amortized cost, and the remaining fixed maturity investments would be reported at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in operations for those designated as trading and as a separate component of capital and surplus for those designated as available-for-sale.

 

All single class and multi-class mortgage-backed/asset-backed securities (e.g., CMOs) are adjusted for the effects of changes in prepayment assumptions on the related accretion of discount or amortization of premium of such securities using either the retrospective or prospective methods. If it is determined that a decline in fair value is other than temporary, the cost basis of the security is written down to the undiscounted estimated future cash flows. Prior to April 1, 2001 under GAAP, changes in prepayment assumptions were accounted for in the same manner. Effective April 1, 2001 for GAAP purposes, all securities, purchased or retained, that represent beneficial interests in securitized assets, other than high credit quality securities, are adjusted using the prospective method when there is a change in estimated future cash flows. If it is determined that a decline in fair value is other than temporary, the cost basis of the security is written down to the fair value. If high credit quality securities are adjusted, the retrospective method is used.

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Derivative instruments that meet the criteria of an effective hedge are valued and reported in a manner that is consistent with the hedged asset or liability. Embedded derivatives are not accounted for separately from the host contract. Under GAAP, the effective and ineffective portions of a single hedge are accounted for separately, an embedded derivative within a contract that is not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risk of the host contract is accounted for separately from the host contract and valued and reported at fair value, and the change in fair value for cash flow hedges is credited or charged directly to a separate component of capital and surplus rather than to income as required for fair value hedges.

 

Derivative instruments are also used in replication transactions. In these transactions, the derivative is valued in a manner consistent with the cash investment and replicated asset. For GAAP, the derivative is reported at fair value with changes in fair value reported in income.

 

Investments in real estate are reported net of related obligations rather than on a gross basis. Real estate owned and occupied by the Company is included in investments rather than reported as an operating asset as under GAAP, and investment income and operating expenses include rent for the Company’s occupancy of those properties. Changes between depreciated cost and admitted asset investment amounts are credited or charged directly to unassigned surplus (deficit) rather than to income as would be required under GAAP.

 

Valuation allowances, if necessary, are established for mortgage loans based on the difference between the net value of the collateral, determined as the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to obtain and sell, and the recorded investment in the mortgage loan. Under GAAP, such allowances are based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, if foreclosure is probable, on the estimated fair value of the collateral.

 

The initial valuation allowance and subsequent changes in the allowance for mortgage loans are charged or credited directly to unassigned surplus, rather than being included as a component of earnings as would be required under GAAP.

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Valuation Reserves: Under a formula prescribed by the NAIC, the Company defers the portion of realized capital gains and losses on sales of fixed income investments, principally bonds and mortgage loans, attributable to changes in the general level of interest rates and amortizes those deferrals over the remaining period to maturity of the bond or mortgage loan. That net deferral is reported as the “interest maintenance reserve” (IMR) in the accompanying balance sheets. Realized capital gains and losses are reported in income net of federal income tax and transfers to the IMR. Under GAAP, realized capital gains and losses would be reported in the income statement on a pretax basis in the period that the assets giving rise to the gains or losses are sold.

 

The “asset valuation reserve” (AVR) provides a valuation allowance for invested assets. The AVR is determined by an NAIC prescribed formula with changes reflected directly in unassigned surplus; AVR is not recognized for GAAP.

 

Subsidiaries: The accounts and operations of the Company’s subsidiaries are not consolidated with the accounts and operations of the Company as would be required under GAAP.

 

Policy Acquisition Costs: The costs of acquiring and renewing business are expensed when incurred. Under GAAP, acquisition costs related to traditional life insurance and certain long-duration accident and health insurance, to the extent recoverable from future policy revenues, would be deferred and amortized over the premium-paying period of the related policies using assumptions consistent with those used in computing policy benefit reserves; for universal life insurance and investment products, to the extent recoverable from future gross profits, deferred policy acquisition costs are amortized generally in proportion to the present value of expected gross profits from surrender charges and investment, mortality, and expense margins.

 

Nonadmitted Assets: Certain assets designated as “nonadmitted” are excluded from the accompanying balance sheets and are charged directly to unassigned surplus (deficit). Under GAAP, such assets are included in the balance sheet.

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Universal Life and Annuity Policies: Revenues for universal life and annuity policies with mortality or morbidity risk (including annuities with purchase rate guarantees) consist of the entire premium received and benefits incurred represent the total of death benefits paid and the change in policy reserves. Premiums received and benefits incurred for annuity policies without mortality or morbidity risk are recorded using deposit accounting, and recorded directly to an appropriate policy reserve account, without recognizing premium income or benefits expense. Interest on these policies are reflected in other benefits. Under GAAP, for universal life, premiums received in excess of policy charges would not be recognized as premium revenue and benefits would represent the excess of benefits paid over the policy account value and interest credited to the account values. Under GAAP, for all annuity policies, premiums received and benefits paid would be recorded directly to the reserve liability.

 

Benefit Reserves: Certain policy reserves are calculated based on statutorily required interest and mortality assumptions rather than on estimated expected experience or actual account balances as would be required under GAAP.

 

Reinsurance: A liability for reinsurance balances would be provided for unsecured policy reserves ceded to reinsurers not authorized to assume such business. Changes to those amounts are credited or charged directly to unassigned surplus. Under GAAP, an allowance for amounts deemed uncollectible would be established through a charge to earnings.

 

Policy and contract liabilities ceded to reinsurers have been reported as reductions of the related reserves rather than as assets as would be required under GAAP.

 

Commissions allowed by reinsurers on business ceded are reported as income when received rather than being deferred and amortized with deferred policy acquisition costs as required under GAAP.

 

Deferred Income Taxes: Deferred income tax assets are limited to 1) the amount of federal income taxes paid in prior years that can be recovered through loss carrybacks for existing temporary differences that reverse by the end of the subsequent calendar

year, plus 2) the lesser of the remaining gross deferred income tax assets expected to be realized within one year of the balance sheet date or 10% of capital and surplus excluding any net deferred income tax assets, EDP equipment and operating software and any net positive goodwill, plus 3) the amount of remaining gross deferred income tax assets that can be offset against existing gross deferred income tax liabilities. The remaining deferred income tax assets are nonadmitted. Deferred income taxes do not include amounts for state taxes. Under GAAP, state taxes are included in the computation of deferred taxes, a deferred tax asset is recorded for the amount of gross deferred tax assets expected to be realized in future years, and a valuation allowance is established for deferred tax assets not realizable.

 

Statements of Cash Flow: Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments in the statements of cash flow represent cash balances and investments with initial maturities of one year of less. Under GAAP, the corresponding caption of cash and cash equivalents includes cash balances and investments with initial maturities of three months or less.

 

The effects of these variances have not been determined by the Company, but are presumed to be material.

 

Investments

 

Investments in bonds (except those to which the Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC has ascribed a value), mortgage loans on real estate and short-term investments are reported at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Amortization is computed using methods which result in a level yield over the expected life of the investment. The Company reviews its prepayment assumptions on mortgage and other asset-backed securities at regular intervals and adjusts amortization rates retrospectively when such assumptions are changed due to experience and/or expected future patterns. Investments in preferred stocks in good standing are reported at cost. Investments in preferred stocks not in good standing are reported at the lower of cost or market. Common stocks of unaffiliated companies and affiliated mutual funds are carried at market value and the related unrealized capital gains or losses are reported in unassigned surplus. Stocks of affiliated companies are carried at equity in the underlying

net assets. Real estate is reported at cost less allowances for depreciation. Depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method. Policy loans are reported at unpaid principal. Other invested assets consist principally of investments in various joint ventures and limited partnerships and are recorded at equity in underlying net assets. Other “admitted assets” are valued principally at cost.

 

Single class and multi-class mortgage-backed/asset-backed securities are valued at amortized cost using the interest method including anticipated prepayments, except for those with an NAIC designation of 6, which are valued at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Prepayment assumptions are obtained from dealer surveys or internal estimates and are based on the current interest rate and economic environment. The retrospective adjustment method is used to value all such securities.

 

Realized capital gains and losses are determined on the basis of specific identification and are recorded net of related federal income taxes. The AVR is established by the Company to provide for potential losses in the event of default by issuers of certain invested assets. These amounts are determined using a formula prescribed by the NAIC and are reported as a liability. The formula for the AVR provides for a corresponding adjustment for realized gains and losses. Under a formula prescribed by the NAIC, the Company defers, in the IMR, the portion of realized gains and losses on sales of fixed income investments, principally bonds and mortgage loans, attributable to changes in the general level of interest rates and amortizes those deferrals over the remaining period to maturity of the security.

 

The carrying values of all investments are reviewed on an ongoing basis for credit deterioration. If this review indicates a decline in fair value that is other than temporary, the carrying value of the investment is reduced to its fair value, and a specific writedown is taken. Such reductions in carrying value are recognized as realized losses on investments.

 

Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. The Company does not accrue income on bonds in default, mortgage loans on real estate in default and/or foreclosure or which are delinquent more than twelve months, or on real estate where rent is in arrears for more than three months. Further, income is not accrued when collection is uncertain. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company excluded investment income due and accrued of $39,437 and $34,280, respectively, with respect to such practices.

Derivative Instruments

 

Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted Statement of Statutory Accounting Principles (SSAP) No. 86, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. In accordance with SSAP No. 86, derivative instruments that qualify for special hedge accounting are valued and reported in a manner consistent with the hedged asset or liability. To qualify for special hedge accounting, the Company must maintain specific documentation regarding the risk management objectives of the hedge and demonstrate on an ongoing basis that the hedging relationship remains highly effective. Derivative instruments used in hedging transactions that do not meet or no longer meet the criteria of an effective hedge are accounted for at fair value and the changes in the fair value are recorded as unrealized gains and losses. This change in accounting principle had no impact on capital and surplus.

 

Interest rate swaps are the primary derivative financial instruments used in the overall asset/liability management process to modify the interest rate characteristics of the hedged asset or liability. These interest rate swaps generally provide for the exchange of the difference between fixed and floating rate amounts based on an underlying notional amount. Typically, no cash is exchanged at the outset of the swap contract and a single net payment is exchanged each due date. Swaps that meet hedge accounting rules are carried in a manner consistent with the hedged item, generally amortized cost, in the financial statements. If the swap is terminated prior to maturity, proceeds are exchanged equal to the fair value of the contract. These gains and losses may be included in IMR or AVR if the hedged instrument receives that treatment. Swaps not meeting hedge accounting rules are carried at fair value with fair value adjustments recorded in capital and surplus.

 

Interest rate basis swaps are used in the overall asset/liability management process to modify the interest rate characteristics of the hedged liability to mitigate the basis risk of assets and liabilities resetting on different indices. These interest rate swaps generally provide for the exchange of the difference between a floating rate on one index to a floating rate of another index, based upon an underlying notional amount. Typically, no cash is exchanged at the outset of the swap contract and a single net payment is exchanged at each due date. Swaps meeting hedge accounting rules are carried in a manner consistent with the hedged item, generally amortized cost, in the financial statements. If the swap is terminated prior to maturity, proceeds are exchanged equal to the fair value of the contract. These gains and losses may be included in IMR or AVR if

the underlying instrument receives that treatment. Swaps not meeting hedge accounting rules are carried at fair value with fair value adjustments recorded in capital and surplus.

 

The Company may hold foreign denominated assets or liabilities and cross currency swaps are utilized to convert the asset or liability to a US denominated security. A cash payment is often exchanged at the outset of the swap contract to represent the present value of cash flows of the instrument. This payment occurs because the derivative is being purchased between coupon periods or the rates in the swap are not at market. A single net payment is exchanged at each due date as well as at the end of the contract. Each asset or liability is hedged individually and the terms of the swap must meet the terms of the underlying instrument. These swaps meet hedge accounting rules and are carried at amortized cost, consistent with the manner in which the hedged items are carried. If a swap is terminated prior to maturity, proceeds are exchanged equal to the fair value of the contract. These gains and losses may be included in IMR or AVR if the hedged instrument receives that treatment.

 

The Company may invest in capped floating rate commercial mortgage loans and use interest rate caps to convert the commercial mortgage loan into a pure floating rate asset in order to meet its overall asset/liability strategy. Each mortgage loan is hedged individually and the relevant terms of the asset and derivative must be the same. These caps require a premium to be paid at the onset of the contract and the Company benefits from the receipt of payments should rates rise above the strike rate. These derivatives meet hedge accounting rules and are carried at amortized cost in the financial statements. A gain or loss upon early termination would be reflected in the IMR similar to the underlying instrument.

 

The Company may sell products with expected benefit payments extending beyond investment assets currently available in the market. Because assets will have to be purchased in the future to fund future liability cash flows, the Company is exposed to the risk of future investments made at lower yields than what is assumed at the time of pricing. Forward-starting interest rate swaps are utilized to lock-in the current interest rate environment for the future. These forward-starting swaps meet hedge accounting rules and are carried at cost in the financial statements. Gains and losses realized upon termination of the forward-starting swap are deferred and amortized into earnings over the life of the future, investment asset.

 

A replication transaction is a derivative transaction entered into in conjunction with a cash instrument that is used to reproduce the investment characteristics of an otherwise

permissible investment. The Company replicates investment grade corporate bonds by combining a AAA rated security as a cash component with a credit default swap which, in effect, converts the high quality asset to a lower rated investment grade asset. The benefits of using the swap market to replicate credit quality include possible enhanced relative values as well as ease of executing larger transactions in a shortened time frame. A premium is received by the Company on a periodic basis and recognized in investment income as earned. In the event the representative issuer defaults on its debt obligation referenced in the contract, a payment equal to the notional of the contract will be made by the Company and recognized as a capital loss. The Company complies with the specific rules established in AVR for replication transactions.

 

The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to financial instruments, but it does not expect any counterparties to fail to meet their obligations given their high credit rating of ‘A’ or better. The credit exposure of interest rate swaps and currency swaps is represented by the fair value of contracts, aggregated at a counterparty level, with a positive fair value at the reporting date. The Company has entered into collateral agreements with certain counterparties wherein the counterparty is required to post assets on the Company’s behalf. The posted amount is equal to the difference between the net positive fair value of the contracts and an agreed upon threshold that is based on the credit rating of the counterparty. Inversely, if the net fair value of all contracts with this counterparty is negative, the Company is required to post assets instead.

 

These derivative instruments are subject to market risk, which is the possibility that future changes in market prices may make the instruments less valuable. The Company uses derivatives as hedges, consequently, when the value of the derivative changes, the value of a corresponding hedged asset or liability will move in the opposite direction. Market risk is a consideration when changes in the value of the derivative and the hedged item do not completely offset (correlation or basis risk) which is mitigated by active measuring and monitoring.

Aggregate Policy Reserves

 

Life, annuity and accident and health benefit reserves are developed by actuarial methods and are determined based on published tables based on statutorily specified interest rates and valuation methods that will provide, in the aggregate, reserves that are greater than or equal to the minimum required by law.

 

The aggregate policy reserves for life insurance policies are based principally upon the 1941, 1958, and 1980 Commissioners’ Standard Ordinary Mortality and American Experience Mortality Tables. The reserves are calculated using interest rates ranging from 2.00 to 6.00 percent and are computed principally on the Net Level Premium Valuation and the Commissioners’ Reserve Valuation Methods. Reserves for universal life policies are based on account balances adjusted for the Commissioners’ Reserve Valuation Method.

 

The Company waives deduction of deferred fractional premiums upon death and refunds portions of premiums beyond the date of death. Additional premiums are charged or additional mortality charges are assessed for policies issued on substandard lives according to underwriting classification.

 

Tabular interest, tabular less actual reserves released, and tabular cost have been determined by formula. Tabular interest on funds not involving life contingencies has also been determined by formula.

 

Deferred annuity reserves are calculated according to the Commissioners’ Annuity Reserve Valuation Method including excess interest reserves to cover situations where the future interest guarantees plus the decrease in surrender charges are in excess of the maximum valuation rates of interest. Reserves for immediate annuities and supplementary contracts with life contingencies are equal to the present value of future payments assuming interest rates ranging from 2.50 to 10.0 percent and mortality rates, where appropriate, from a variety of tables.

 

Annuity reserves also include guaranteed investment contracts (GICs) and funding agreements classified as life-type contracts as defined in SSAP No. 50, Classifications and Definitions of Insurance or Managed Care Contracts in Force. These liabilities have annuitization options at guaranteed rates and consist of floating interest rate and

fixed interest rate contracts. The contract reserves are carried at the greater of the account balance or the value as determined for an annuity with cash settlement option, on a change in fund basis, according to the Commissioners’ Annuity Reserve Valuation Method.

 

Accident and health policy reserves are equal to the greater of the gross unearned premiums or any required midterminal reserves plus net unearned premiums and the present value of amounts not yet due on both reported and unreported claims.

 

Reinsurance

 

Coinsurance premiums, commissions, expense reimbursements, and reserves related to reinsured business are accounted for on bases consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies and the terms of the reinsurance contracts. Gains associated with reinsurance of inforce blocks of business are included in unassigned surplus (deficit) and are amortized into income over the estimated life of the policies. Premiums ceded and recoverable losses have been reported as a reduction of premium income and benefits, respectively.

 

Policy and Contract Claim Reserves

 

Claim reserves represent the estimated accrued liability for claims reported to the Company and claims incurred but not yet reported through the statement date. These reserves are estimated using either individual case-basis valuations or statistical analysis techniques. These estimates are subject to the effects of trends in claim severity and frequency. The estimates are continually reviewed and adjusted as necessary as experience develops or new information becomes available.

 

Liability for Deposit-Type Contracts

 

Deposit-type contracts do not incorporate risk from the death or disability of policyholders. These types of contracts may include GICs, funding agreements, and other annuity contracts. Deposits and withdrawals received on these contracts are recorded as a direct increase or decrease to the liability balance, and are not reflected as premiums, benefits, or changes in reserve in the statement of operations.

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Separate Accounts

 

Assets held in trust for purchases of variable universal life and variable annuity contracts and the Company’s corresponding obligation to the contract owners are shown separately in the balance sheets. The assets in the separate accounts are valued at market. Income and gains and losses with respect to the assets in the separate accounts accrue to the benefit of the policyholders and, accordingly, the operations of the separate accounts are not included in the accompanying financial statements. The investment risks associated with market value changes of the separate accounts are borne entirely by the policyholders except in cases where minimum guarantees exist (See note 8).

 

Premiums and Annuity Considerations

 

Revenues for policies with mortality or morbidity risk (including annuities with purchase rate guarantees) consist of the entire premium received and benefits incurred represent the total of death benefits paid and the change in policy reserves. These revenues are recognized when due. Consideration received and benefits paid for annuity policies without mortality or morbidity risk are recorded using deposit accounting, and recorded directly to an appropriate policy reserve account, without recognizing premium revenue or benefits paid.

 

Stock Option and Stock Appreciation Rights Plans

 

Prior to 2002, AEGON N.V. sponsored a stock option plan for eligible employees of the Company. Pursuant to the plan, the option price at the date of grant is equal to the market value of the stock. Under statutory accounting principles, the Company does not record any expense related to this plan. However, the Company is allowed to record a deduction in the consolidated tax return filed by the Company and certain affiliates. The tax benefit of this deduction has been credited directly to unassigned surplus. Beginning in 2002, AEGON N.V. offered stock appreciation rights to eligible employees which do not entitle them to the purchase of AEGON N.V. shares, but provide similar financial benefits.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2002 and 2001 financial statements to conform to the 2003 presentation.

2. Accounting Changes

 

The Company prepares its statutory financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Division, Department of Commerce, of the State of Iowa. Effective January 1, 2001, the State of Iowa required that insurance companies domiciled in the State of Iowa prepare their statutory basis financial statements in accordance with the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual subject to any deviations prescribed or permitted by the State of Iowa insurance commissioner.

 

Accounting changes adopted to conform to the provisions of the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual are reported as changes in accounting principles. The cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles is reported as an adjustment to unassigned surplus (deficit) in the period of the change in accounting principle. The cumulative effect is the difference between the amount of capital and surplus at the beginning of the year and the amount of capital and surplus that would have been reported at that date if the new accounting principles had been applied retroactively for all prior periods. As a result of these changes, the Company reported a change of accounting principle, as an adjustment that increased capital and surplus, of $23,045 as of January 1, 2001. This amount included the establishment of deferred income tax assets of $19,124 and the release of mortgage loan prepayment fees from the IMR of $11,151, offset by the release of mortgage loan origination fees of $3,110, bond writedowns of $3,490, and the establishment of a vacation accrual of $630.

 

On December 31, 2002, the Company adopted the provisions of Actuarial Guideline 39 (“Guideline 39”). The purpose of Guideline 39 is to interpret the standards for the valuation of reserves for guaranteed living benefits included in variable deferred and immediate annuity contracts. The Company had previously provided reserves for such guarantees based on the accumulation of the amount charged to policyholders for these benefits. The cumulative effect of adopting Guideline 39 on December 31, 2002, was to increase reserves by $65,363, which was charged directly to unassigned surplus (deficit) as a change in accounting principle.

 

Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted SSAP No. 86 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. In accordance with SSAP No. 86, derivative instruments that qualify for special hedge accountings are valued and reported in a manner consistent with the hedged asset or liability. To qualify for special hedge accounting, the Company must maintain specific documentation regarding the risk

2. Accounting Changes (continued)

 

management objectives of the hedge and demonstrate on an ongoing basis that the hedging relationship remains highly effective. Derivative instruments used in hedging transactions that do not meet or no longer meet the criteria of an effective hedge are accounted for at fair value and the changes in the fair value are recorded as unrealized gains and losses. This change of accounting principle had no impact on capital and surplus as of January 1, 2003.

 

3. Capital Structure

 

During 2001, the Company exchanged 42,500 shares of its common stock with 42,500 shares of preferred stock. The par value of the preferred stock is $10 per share and the liquidation value is equal to $1,364.70 per share. This per share liquidation value shall be adjusted proportionally to reflect any resulting increase or decrease in the number of outstanding shares of preferred stock. Holders of the preferred shares shall be entitled to receive dividends equal to the amount of income generated from a segregated pool of assets, including cash, cash equivalents, mortgages and debt securities and these dividends are cumulative in nature. Holders of the shares of preferred stock have no right to cause mandatory or optional redemption of the shares. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, cumulative unpaid dividends relating to the preferred shares were $-0- and $5,942, respectively.

 

At December 31, 2002, the Company accrued $200,000 for a capital contribution receivable from its parent. This capital contribution was carried as an admitted asset based on approval from the Insurance Division, Department of Commerce, of the State of Iowa and receipt of the capital contribution prior to the filing of the annual statement, in accordance with SSAP No. 72.

3. Capital Structure (continued)

 

During 2002, the Company received $575,000 from Transamerica Holding in exchange for surplus notes. These notes are due 20 years from the date of issuance and are subordinate and junior in right of payment to all obligations and liabilities of the Company. In the event of liquidation of the Company, the holders of the issued and outstanding preferred stock shall be entitled to priority only with respect to accumulated but unpaid dividends before the holder of the surplus notes and full payment of the suprlus notes shall be made before the holders of common stock become entitled to any distribution of the remaining assets of the Company. Additional information related to the surplus notes at December 31, 2003 and 2002 are as follows:

4. Fair Values of Financial Instruments

 

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

 

Cash and short-term investments: The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for these instruments approximate their fair values.

 

25

Notes to Financial Statements – Statutory Basis (continued)

(Dollars in Thousands, Except per Share Amounts)

 

4. Fair Values of Financial Instruments (continued)

 

Investment securities: Fair values for fixed maturity securities (including redeemable preferred stocks) are based on quoted market prices, where available. For fixed maturity securities not actively traded, fair values are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services or, in the case of private placements, are estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a current market rate applicable to the yield, credit quality, and maturity of the investments. The fair values for equity securities, including affiliated mutual funds, are based on quoted market prices.

 

Mortgage loans on real estate and policy loans: The fair values for mortgage loans on real estate are estimated utilizing discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates reflective of current market conditions and the risk characteristics of the loans. The fair value of policy loans is assumed to equal their carrying amount.

 

Interest rate caps and swaps: Estimated fair value of interest rate caps are based upon the latest quoted market price. Estimated fair value of swaps, including interest rate and currency swaps, are based upon the pricing differential for similar swap agreements. The related carrying value of these items is included with other invested assets.

 

Separate Account Assets: The fair value of separate account assets are based on quoted market prices.

 

Investment contracts: Fair values for the Company’s liabilities under investment-type insurance contracts, which include guaranteed interest contracts and funding agreements, are estimated using discounted cash flow calculations, based on interest rates currently being offered for similar contracts with maturities consistent with those remaining for the contracts being valued.

 

Net short-term receivable from affiliates: The fair values for short-term notes receivable from affiliates are assumed to equal their carrying amount.

 

Separate account annuity liabilities: Separate account annuity liabilities approximate the market value of the separate account assets less a provision for the present value of future profits related to the underlying contracts.

4. Fair Values of Financial Instruments (continued)

 

Fair values for the Company’s insurance contracts other than investment contracts (including separate account universal life liabilities) are not required to be disclosed. However, the fair values of liabilities under all insurance contracts are taken into consideration in the Company’s overall management of interest rate risk, which minimizes exposure to changing interest rates through the matching of investment maturities with amounts due under insurance contracts.

 

The following sets forth a comparison of the fair values and carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments:

The Company regularly monitors industry sectors and individual debt securities for signs of impairment, including length of time and extent to which the market value of debt securities has been less than cost; industry risk factors; financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer; and nationally recognized credit rating agency rating changes. Additionally for asset-backed securities, cash flow trends and underlying levels of

collateral are monitored. A specific security is considered to be impaired when it is determined that it is probable that not all amounts due (both principal and interest) will be collected as scheduled. Consideration is also given to management’s intent and ability to hold a security until maturity or until fair value will recover.

 

The Company’s investment in Transamerica Capital III, a long-term bond issued by an affiliate, is valued at amortized cost with a carrying value of $3,083 and 4,234 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

The Company uses interest rate swaps to reduce market risk in interest rates and to alter interest rate exposures arising from mismatches between assets and liabilities. An interest rate swap is an arrangement whereby two parties (counterparties) enter into an agreement to exchange periodic interest payments. The dollar amount the counterparties pay each other is an agreed-upon period interest rate multiplied by an underlying notional amount. Generally, no cash is exchanged at the outset of the contract and no principal payments are made by either party. The Company also uses cross currency swaps to reduce market risk in foreign currencies and to alter exchange exposure arising from mismatches between assets and liabilities. A cash payment is often exchanged at the outset of the swap contract, representing the present value of cash flows of the instrument. All swap transactions are entered into pursuant to master agreements providing for a single net payment to be made by one counterparty at each due date.

 

The Company may invest in capped floating rate commercial mortgage loans and use interest rate caps to convert the commercial mortgage loan into a pure floating rate asset in order to meet its overall asset/liability strategy. Interest rate caps provide for the receipt of payments when interest rates rise above the strike rates in the contract. A single premium is paid by the Company at the beginning of the interest rate cap contracts.

5. Investments (continued)

 

The Company replicates investment grade corporate bonds by combining a AAA rated security with a credit default swap which, in effect, converts the high quality asset into a lower rated investment grade asset. Using the swap market to replicate credit enables the Company to enhance the relative values and ease of executing larger transactions in a shortened time frame. A premium is received by the Company on a periodic basis and recognized in investment income. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had replicated assets with a fair value of $196,173 and $221,709, respectively, and credit default swaps with a fair value of $(841) and $(4,161), respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, the Company recognized capital losses in the amount of $-0-, $-0-, and $20,125, respectively, related to replication transactions.

 

The Company is exposed to credit related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to financial instruments, but it does not expect any counterparty to fail to meet their obligations given their high credit rating of ‘A’ or better. As of the reporting date, the fair value of all contracts, aggregated at a counterparty level, with a positive fair value amounted to $411,469.

 

The Company has entered into collateral agreements with certain counterparties wherein the counterparty is required to post assets on the Company’s behalf in an amount equal to the difference between the net positive fair value of the contracts and an agreed upon threshold based on the credit rating of the counterparty. If the net fair value of all contracts with this counterparty is negative, the Company is required to post assets.

 

At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company’s outstanding financial instruments with on and off-balance sheet risks, shown in notional amounts, are summarized as follows:

The maximum term over which the Company is hedging its exposure to the variability of future cash flows for forecasted transactions is 19 years. If the forecasted asset purchase does not occur or is no longer highly probable of occurring, valuation at cost ceases and the forward-starting swap would be valued at its current fair value with fair value adjustments recorded in equity. For the year ended December 31, 2003, none of the Company’s cash flow hedges have been discontinued because it was no longer probable that the original forecasted transactions would occur by the end of the originally specified time period documented at inception of the hedging relationship.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company has recorded $(713) for the component of derivative instruments utilized for hedging purposes that did not qualify for hedge accounting. This has been recorded directly to unassigned surplus as an unrealized loss.

 

6. Reinsurance

 

Certain premiums and benefits are assumed from and ceded to other insurance companies under various reinsurance agreements. The Company reinsures portions of risk on certain insurance policies which exceed its established limits, thereby providing a greater diversification of risk and minimizing exposure on larger risks. The Company remains contingently liable with respect to any insurance ceded, and this would become an actual liability in the event that the assuming insurance company became unable to meet its obligation under the reinsurance treaty.

 

Reinsurance assumption treaties are transacted primarily with affiliates. Premiums earned reflect the following reinsurance assumed and ceded amounts:

6. Reinsurance (continued)

 

The Company received reinsurance recoveries in the amount of $172,208, $122,531, and $135,889 during 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, estimated amounts recoverable from reinsurers that have been deducted from policy and contract claim reserves totaled $4,051 and $4,238, respectively. The aggregate reserves for policies and contracts were reduced for reserve credits for reinsurance ceded at December 31, 2003 and 2002 of $1,387,937 and $1,468,069, respectively.

 

At December 31, 2003, amounts recoverable from unauthorized reinsurers of $2,153 (2002—$4,315) and reserve credits for reinsurance ceded of $34,928 (2002 – $46,901) were associated with a single reinsurer and its affiliates. The Company holds collateral under these reinsurance agreements in the form of trust agreements totaling $42,436 at December 31, 2003, that can be drawn on for amounts that remain unpaid for more than 120 days.

 

During 2001, the Company entered into a reinsurance transaction with Transamerica International Re (Bermuda) Ltd., an affiliate of the Company. Under the terms of this transaction, the Company ceded the obligation of future guaranteed minimum death benefits included in certain of its variable annuity contracts. The difference between the initial premiums ceded of $13,402 and the reserve credit taken of $64,235 was credited directly to unassigned surplus on a net of tax basis. During 2003 and 2002, $3,304 of the initial gain was amortized into earnings, with a corresponding charge to unassigned surplus. The Company holds collateral in the form of letters of credit of $40,000.

 

Additionally, in 2001, the Company entered into a reinsurance transaction with an unaffiliated company to cede certain annuity benefits on an inforce group of contracts. The gain from this transaction of $4,249 was credited directly to unassigned surplus. During 2003 and 2002, $474 and $816, respectively, of the initial gain was amortized into earnings, with a corresponding charge to unassigned surplus.

 

During 2003, the Company recaptured a block of business ceded to a non-affiliated company. The recapture resulted in no consideration received by or paid to the Company. This recapture resulted in a pre-tax loss of $3,323, which was recorded in the statement of operations. The loss was offset by the release of liability for unauthorized reinsurance and non-admitted assets related to the reinsurance treaty of $3,208, which were credited directly to unassigned surplus.

6. Reinsurance (continued)

 

During 2003, the Company entered into another reinsurance transaction with Transamerica International Re (Bermuda) Ltd., an affiliate of the Company. Under the terms of this transaction, the Company ceded the obligations and benefits related to certain life insurance contracts. The difference between the consideration paid of $2,608 and the reserve credit taken of $6,188 was credited directly to unassigned surplus on a net of tax basis. Subsequent to the initial gain, the Company has amortized $275 into earnings with a corresponding charge to unassigned surplus. The Company holds collateral in the form of letters of credit of $9,400.

 

During 2003, the Company entered into an indemnity reinsurance agreement in which the Company agreed to cede the obligations and benefits related to certain fixed annuity contracts on a coinsurance and modified coinsurance basis. The Company received a ceding commission of $13,386 at the inception of the contract. In addition, the Company released the IMR liability of $12,906 related to the assets backing the ceded contracts because the future investment experience to be transferred to the assuming company will be without adjustment of the IMR that existed at the date of the initial transaction. The resulting gain from the ceding commission and the IMR release has been recorded directly to the unassigned surplus on a net of tax basis. The initial mod-co transaction of $1,587,431 is included separately in the revenue and expense sections of the Company’s statement of operations for 2003. Subsequent to the initial gain, the Company has amortized $9,473 into earnings with a corresponding charge to unassigned surplus.

 

The Company has historically been a party to various reinsurance transactions with MEGA Life and Health Insurance Co. and its affiliates (“MEGA”) related to certain accident and health business. During 2003, the Company entered into several reinsurance transactions and novations of certain underlying policies such that all risks associated with these treaties and policies have been ceded to MEGA. No gain or loss was recognized related to these transactions.

For federal income tax purposes, the Company joins in a consolidated income tax return filing with its parent and other affiliated companies. Under the terms of a tax sharing agreement between the Company and its affiliates, the Company computes federal income tax expense as if it were filing a separate income tax return, except that tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards are determined on the basis of the consolidated group. Additionally, the alternative minimum tax is computed for the consolidated group and the resulting tax, if any, is allocated back to the separate companies on the basis of the separate companies’ alternative minimum taxable income. In addition, any operating loss or capital loss carryforwards are calculated for the life and nonlife subgroups on a consolidated basis.

7. Income Taxes (continued)

 

The Company’s federal income tax returns have been examined by the Internal Revenue Service and the statute is closed through 1995. The examination fieldwork for 1996 through 1997 has been completed and a protest of findings has been filed with the Appeals Office of the Internal Revenue Service. An examination is underway for 1998 through 2000.

 

Income taxes incurred during 2003, 2002 and 2001 for the consolidated group in which the Company is included that will be available for recoupment in the event of future net losses is $218,994, $1,319 and $-0-, respectively.

 

Prior to 1984, as provided for under the Life insurance Company Tax Act of 1959, a portion of statutory income was not subject to current taxation but was accumulated for income tax purposes in a memorandum account referred to as the “policyholders’ surplus account” (PSA). No federal income taxes have been provided for in the financial statements for income deferred in the PSA ($20,387 at December 31, 2003). To the extent that dividends are paid from the amount accumulated in the PSA, net earnings would be reduced by the amount of tax required to be paid. Should the entire amount in the PSA account become taxable, the tax thereon computed at the current rates would amount to approximately $7,135.

Reserves on the Company’s traditional life products are computed using mean reserving methodologies. These methodologies result in the establishment of assets for the amount of the net valuation premiums that are anticipated to be received between the policy’s paid-through date to the policy’s next anniversary date. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, these assets (which are reported as premiums deferred and uncollected) and the amounts of the related gross premiums and loading, are as follows:

At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had insurance in force aggregating $221,263 and $121,707, respectively, in which the gross premiums are less than the net premiums required by the valuation standards established by the Insurance Division, Department of Commerce, of the State of Iowa. The Company established policy reserves of $4,590 and $3,813 to cover these deficiencies at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

 

During 2003, the Company upgraded its reserve valuation system for fixed deferred annuities and variable annuities. The valuation system upgrade, which provides for more precise calculations, caused general account reserves to decrease by $3,572 and separate account reserves to increase by $4,681. The amounts relating to the general account were credited directly to unassigned surplus. The amounts related to the separate accounts are included in the change in surplus in separate accounts in the 2003 Statement of Changes in Capital and Surplus.

 

During 2002, the Company converted to a new reserve valuation system for fixed deferred annuities and variable annuities. The new valuation system, which provides for more precise calculations, caused general account reserves to increase by $18,990 and

separate account reserves to increase by $914. The amounts relating to the general account were credited directly to unassigned surplus. The amounts related to the separate accounts are included in the change in surplus in separate accounts in the 2002 Statement of Changes in Capital and Surplus.

 

9. Dividend Restrictions

 

The Company is subject to limitations, imposed by the State of Iowa, on the payment of dividends to its parent company. Generally, dividends during any twelve-month period may not be paid, without prior regulatory approval, in excess of the greater of (a) 10 percent of statutory capital and surplus as of the preceding December 31, or (b) statutory gain from operations before net realized capital gains (losses) on investments for the preceding year. Subject to the availability of unassigned surplus (which aggregates $64,487 at December 31, 2003) at the time of such dividend, the maximum payment which may be made in 2004, without the prior approval of insurance regulatory authorities, is $255,013.

 

During 2003, the Company paid $300,000 to its Parent Company. This payment consisted of a dividend of $45,700 and a return of additional paid-in-capital of $254,300. The Company did not pay a common stock dividend to its Parent Company during 2002. The Company paid dividends to its parent of $3,000 in 2001.

 

Life/health insurance companies are subject to certain Risk-Based Capital (RBC) requirements as specified by the NAIC. Under those requirements, the amount of capital and surplus maintained by a life/health insurance company is to be determined based on the various risk factors related to it. At December 31, 2003, the Company meets the RBC requirements.

10. Retirement and Compensation Plans

 

The Company’s employees participate in a qualified defined benefit pension plan sponsored by AEGON. The Company has no legal obligation for the plan. The Company recognizes pension expense equal to its allocation from AEGON. The pension expense is allocated among the participating companies based on expense in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87 as a percent of salaries. The benefits are based on years of service and the employee’s compensation during the highest five consecutive years of employment. Pension expense aggregated $1,658, $784, and $665 for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively. The plan is subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the Employee Retirement and Income Security Act of 1974.

 

The Company’s employees also participate in a contributory defined contribution plan sponsored by AEGON which is qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Service Code. Employees of the Company who customarily work at least 1,000 hours during each calendar year and meet the other eligibility requirements are participants of the plan. Participants may elect to contribute up to fifteen percent of their salary to the plan. The Company will match an amount up to three percent of the participant’s salary. Participants may direct all of their contributions and plan balances to be invested in a variety of investment options. The plan is subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the Employee Retirement and Income Security Act of 1974. Expense related to this plan was $637, $353, and $314 for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively.

 

AEGON sponsors supplemental retirement plans to provide the Company’s senior management with benefits in excess of normal pension benefits. The plans are noncontributory, and benefits are based on years of service and the employee’s compensation level. The plans are unfunded and nonqualified under the Internal Revenue Service Code. In addition, AEGON has established incentive deferred compensation plans for certain key employees of the Company. The Company’s allocation of expense for these plans for each of the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001 was negligible. AEGON also sponsors an employee stock option plan/stock appreciation rights for individuals employed and a stock purchase plan for its producers, with the participating affiliated companies establishing their own eligibility criteria, producer contribution limits and company matching formula. These plans have been accrued or funded as deemed appropriate by management of AEGON and the Company.

 

In addition to pension benefits, the Company participates in plans sponsored by AEGON that provide postretirement medical, dental and life insurance benefits to employees

meeting certain eligibility requirements. Portions of the medical and dental plans are contributory. The expenses of the postretirement plans are charged to affiliates in accordance with an intercompany cost sharing arrangement. The Company expensed $166, $95, and $94 for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively.

 

11. Sales, Transfer, and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities

 

During 2003, 2002 and 2001, the Company sold $7,726, $11,172 and $1,565, respectively, of agent balances without recourse to Money Services, Inc., an affiliated company. The Company did not realize a gain or loss as a result of the sale.

 

12. Related Party Transactions

 

The Company shares certain offices, employees and general expenses with affiliated companies.

 

The Company receives data processing, investment advisory and management, marketing and administration services from certain affiliates. During 2003, 2002, and 2001, the Company paid $70,838, $57,691, and $33,505, respectively, for these services, which approximates their costs to the affiliates.

 

Payables to affiliates bear interest at the thirty-day commercial paper rate. During 2003, 2002, and 2001, the Company paid net interest of $985, $737, and $1,046, respectively, to affiliates.

 

During 2003, the Company distributed a common stock dividend of $45,700, $254,300 of cash to its parent, and received a cash capital contribution of $200,000 that was accrued in 2002. During 2002 and 2001, the Company received a capital contribution of $200,000 and $280,000, respectively, in cash from its parent. The Company paid dividends to its parent of $3,000 in 2001. In addition, in 2002, the Company issued a surplus note of $575,000 in exchange for cash.

 

At December 31, 2003, the Company did not have any net short-term notes receivable from an affiliate outstanding. At December 31, 2002, the Company had net short-term notes receivable from an affiliate of $183,000. At December 31, 2001, the Company had net short-term notes receivable of $140,000. Interest on these notes accrues based on the 30-day commercial paper rate at the time of issuance.

12. Related Party Transactions (continued)

 

During 1998, the Company issued life insurance policies to certain affiliated companies, covering the lives of certain employees of those affiliates. Aggregate reserves for policies and contracts related to these policies are $226,770 and $218,024 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

 

13. Commitments and Contingencies

 

The Company has issued synthetic GIC contracts to plan sponsors totaling $2,085,920 as of December 31, 2003. A synthetic GIC is an off-balance sheet fee-based product sold primarily to tax qualified plans. The plan sponsor retains ownership and control of the related plan assets. The Company provides book value benefit responsiveness in the event that qualified plan benefit requests exceed plan cash flows. In certain contracts, the Company agrees to make advances to meet benefit payment needs and earns a market interest rate on these advances. The periodically adjusted contract-crediting rate is the means by which investment and benefit responsive experience is passed through to participants. In return for the book value benefit responsive guarantee, the Company receives a premium that varies based on such elements as benefit responsive exposure and contract size. The Company underwrites the plans for the possibility of having to make benefit payments and also must agree to the investment guidelines to ensure appropriate credit quality and cash flow. Funding requirements to date have been minimal and management does not anticipate any future material funding requirements that would have a material impact on reported financial results.

 

The Company has also provided a guarantee for the obligations of an affiliate, AEGON Assignment Corporation. This entity accepts assignments of structured settlement payment obligations from other insurers and purchase structured settlement insurance policies from subsidiaries of the Company that match those obligations. There are no expected payments associated with this guarantee.

 

The Company may pledge assets as collateral for transactions involving funding agreements. At December 31, 2003, the Company has pledged invested assets with a carrying value and market value of $1,595,976 and $1,613,831, respectively, in conjunction with these transactions.

 

The Company may lend securities to approved broker and other parties to earn additional income. The Company receives collateral at least equal to 102% of the fair value of the loaned securities as of the transaction date. The counterparty is obligated to deliver

13. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

 

additional collateral if the fair value of the collateral is at any time less than 100% of the fair value of the loaned securities. The additional collateral along with the collateral already held in connection with the lending transaction is at least equal to 102% of the fair value of the loaned securities. The Company does not participate in securities lending in foreign securities. There are no restrictions as to the collateral. Although risk is mitigated by collateral, the account could experience a delay in recovering its securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the value of securities loaned amounted to $1,032,994 and $1,319,849, respectively.

 

The Company has contingent commitments for $114,104 at December 31, 2003 for joint ventures, partnerships, and limited liability companies.

 

At December 31, 2003, the Company has mortgage loan commitments of $170,131.

 

The Company is a party to legal proceedings incidental to its business. Although such litigation sometimes includes substantial demands for compensatory and punitive damages, in addition to contract liability, it is management’s opinion that damages arising from such demands will not be material to the Company’s financial position.

 

The Company is subject to insurance guaranty laws in the states in which it writes business. These laws provide for assessments against insurance companies for the benefit of policyholders and claimants in the event of insolvency of other insurance companies. Assessments are charged to operations when received by the Company except where right of offset against other taxes paid is allowed by law; amounts available for future offsets are recorded as an asset on the Company’s balance sheet. Potential future obligations for unknown insolvencies are not determinable by the Company and are not required to be accrued for financial reporting purposes. The future obligation has been based on the most recent information available from the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Associations. The Company has established a reserve of $15,608 and $15,557 and an offsetting premium tax benefit of $7,217 and $7,236 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, for its estimated share of future guaranty fund assessments related to several major insurer insolvencies. The guaranty fund expense (benefit) was $56,732, $(2,425), and $(1,943) for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively.

Table of Contents

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of mutual fund shares owned as of December 31, 2003, by correspondence with the mutual funds’ transfer agents. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the respective subaccounts of Transamerica Life Insurance Company Separate Account VA B, which are available for investment by contract owners of Transamerica Landmark Variable Annuity, at December 31, 2003, and the results of their operations and changes in their net assets for the periods indicated thereon in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The Mutual Fund Account is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a Unit Investment Trust pursuant to provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Each Fund is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Mutual Fund Account consists of multiple investment subaccounts. Activity in these specific investment subaccounts except for those of the STI Classic Variable Trust are available to contract owners of The Transamerica Landmark Variable Annuity, The Transamerica Freedom Variable Annuity, and The Transamerica Landmark ML Variable Annuity, issued by Transamerica Life.

* These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the subaccount from the underlying Series Fund, net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by the average net assets. These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges, that result in direct reductions in the unit values. The recognition of investment income by the subaccount is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying Series Fund in which the subaccounts invest.

 

** These ratios represent the annualized contract expenses of the Mutual Fund Account, consisting primarily of mortality and expense charges. The expense ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values. Charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units and expenses of the underlying Series Fund are excluded. These charges range from .25% to .75% of the average contract owner's account value depending on the options selected. Refer to the product's prospectus for specific details. Expense ratios for periods of less than one year have been annualized.

5. Administrative, Mortality, and Expense Risk Charge

 

Administrative charges include an annual charge of the lesser of 2% of the policy value or $35 per contract, which will commence on the first policy anniversary of each contract owner’s account. For policies issued on or after May 1, 1995, this charge is waived if the sum of the premium payments less the sum of all partial withdrawals equals or exceeds $50,000 on the policy anniversary. Charges for administrative fees to the variable annuity contracts are an expense of the Mutual Fund Account. Transamerica Life also deducts a daily charge equal to an annual rate .15% of the contract owner’s account for administrative expenses. For certain policies sold on or after May 1, 1997 during the first seven policy years, Transamerica Life deducts a daily distribution finance charge equal to an effective rate of .15% of the contract owner’s account.

 

An annual charge is deducted from the unit values of the subaccounts of the Mutual Fund Account for Transamerica Life’s assumption of certain mortality and expense risks incurred in connection with the contract. The charge is assessed daily based on the net asset value of the account and ranges from 1.10% to 2.15%, depending on the death benefit selected. Contract owners should see their actual policy and any related attachments to determine their specific charges.

 

Prior to May 1, 2001, Transamerica Life offered a 5% Annually Compounding Death Benefit and a Double Enhanced Death Benefit with a charge equal to an annual effective rate of 1.25% of the value of the contract owner’s individual account. They also offered a Return of Premium Death Benefit with a corresponding charge equal to an annual effective rate of 1.10% of the value of the contract owner’s individual account. These options are no longer available subsequent to May 1, 2001.

 

6. Income Taxes

 

Operations of the Mutual Fund Account form a part of Transamerica Life, which is taxed as a life insurance company under Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). The operations of the Mutual Fund Account are accounted for separately from other operations of Transamerica Life for purposes of federal income taxation. The Mutual Fund Account is not separately taxable as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code and is not otherwise taxable as an entity separate from Transamerica Life. Under existing federal income tax laws, the income of the Mutual Fund Account is not taxable to Transamerica Life, as long as earnings are credited under the variable annuity contracts.

 

7. Dividend Distributions

 

Dividends are not declared by the Mutual Fund Account, since the increase in the value of the underlying investment in the Funds is reflected daily in the accumulation unit price used to calculate the equity value within the Mutual Fund Account. Consequently, a dividend distribution by the underlying Funds does not change either the accumulation unit price or equity values within the Mutual Fund Account.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of mutual fund shares owned as of December 31, 2003, by correspondence with the mutual funds’ transfer agents. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the respective subaccounts of Transamerica Life Insurance Company Separate Account B, which are available for investment by contract owners of the Transamerica Landmark ML Variable Annuity, at December 31, 2003, and the results of their operations and changes in their net assets for the periods indicated thereon in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Organization

 

Transamerica Life Insurance Company Separate Account B (the Mutual Fund Account) is a segregated investment account of Transamerica Life Insurance Company (Transamerica Life), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of AEGON N.V., a holding company organized under the laws of The Netherlands.

 

The Mutual Fund Account is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a Unit Investment Trust pursuant to provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Mutual Fund Account consists of multiple investment subaccounts. Activity in these specified investment subaccounts is available to contract owners of the Transamerica Landmark ML Variable Annuity. All portfolios of the Mutual Fund Account, except for those of the Merrill Lynch Variable Series Fund, Inc., are also available to the contract owners of the Transamerica Landmark Variable Annuity and the Transamerica Freedom Variable Annuity, also issued by Transamerica Life. The amounts reported herein represent the activity related to contract owners of the Transamerica Landmark ML Variable Annuity only. Each Fund is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Transamerica U.S. Government Securities-Safe Fund-Service Class subaccount (“Safe Fund”) was added on November 3, 2003 solely to facilitate a contract owner purchase option. If this option is elected, assets are automatically allocated from the contract owner’s other subaccounts into the “Safe Fund” when the policy value has dropped relative to the guaranteed amount.

4. Financial Highlights (continued)

 

* These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the subaccount from the underlying Series Fund, net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by the average net assets. These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges, that result in direct reductions in the unit values. The recognition of investment income by the subaccount is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying Series Fund in which the subaccounts invest.

 

** These ratios represent the annualized contract expenses of the Mutual Fund Account, consisting primarily of mortality and expense charges. The expense ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values. Charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units and expenses of the underlying Series Fund are excluded. These charges range from .25% to .75% of the average contract owner’s account value depending on the options selected. Refer to the product’s prospectus for specific details. Expense ratios for periods of less than one year have been annualized.

 

*** The total return does not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units; inclusion of these expenses in the calculation would result in a reduction in the total return presented. These amounts represent the total return for the period indicated, including changes in the value of the underlying Series Fund, and reflect deductions for all items included in the expense ratio. Total returns reflect a full twelve month period except for those subaccounts indicated as being a partial year in the Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies footnote and new expense ratios as follows:

5. Administrative, Mortality, and Expense Risk Charge

 

Administrative charges include an annual charge of the lesser of 2% of the policy value or $35 per contract, which will commence on the first policy anniversary of each contract owner’s account. This charge is waived if the sum of the premium payments less the sum of the partial withdrawals equals or exceeds $50,000 on the policy anniversary. Transamerica Life also deducts a daily charge equal to an annual rate of .15% of the contract owners’ account for administrative expenses. In addition, during the first seven policy years, Transamerica Life deducts a daily distribution finance charge equal to an effective annual rate of .15% of the contract owners’ account for certain contracts issued prior to May 1, 2001.

 

An annual charge is deducted from the unit values of the subaccounts of the Mutual Fund Account for Transamerica Life’s assumption of certain mortality and expense risks incurred in connection with the contract. The charge is assessed daily based on the net asset value account and ranges from 1.10% to 2.15%, depending on the death benefit selected. Contract owners should see their actual policy and any related attachments to determine their specific charges.

 

Prior to May 1, 2001, Transamerica Life offered a 5% Annually Compounding Death Benefit and a Double Enhanced Death Benefit with a charge equal to an annual effective rate of 1.25% of the value of the contract owner’s individual account. They also offered a Return of Premium Death Benefit with a corresponding charge equal to an annual effective rate of 1.10% of the value of the contract owner’s individual account. These options are no longer available subsequent to May 1, 2001.

 

6. Income Taxes

 

Operations of the Mutual Fund Account form a part of Transamerica Life, which is taxed as a life insurance company under Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). The operations of the Mutual Fund Account are accounted for separately from other operations of Transamerica Life for purposes of federal income taxation. The Mutual Fund Account is not separately taxable as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code and is not otherwise taxable as an entity separate from Transamerica Life. Under existing federal income tax laws, the income of the Mutual Fund Account is not taxable to Transamerica Life, as long as earnings are credited under the variable annuity contracts.

 

7. Dividend Distributions

 

Dividends are not declared by the Mutual Fund Account, since the increase in the value of the underlying investment in the Funds is reflected daily in the accumulation unit price used to calculate the equity value within the Mutual Fund Account. Consequently, a dividend distribution by the underlying Funds does not change either the accumulation unit price or equity values within the Mutual Fund Account.

Item 27.    Number of Policyowners

 

As of December 31, 2003, there were 81,339 Owners of the Policies.

 

Item 28.    Indemnification

 

The Iowa Code (Sections 490.850 et. seq.) provides for permissive indemnification in certain situations, mandatory indemnification in other situations, and prohibits indemnification in certain situations. The Code also specifies procedures for determining when indemnification payments can be made.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Depositor pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Depositor has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Depositor of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered), the Depositor will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
