All Rate Sheet Prospectus Supplements are also available on the EDGAR system at www.sec.gov. Please see the SEC file number table below for your applicable product.

We are issuing this Rate Sheet Prospectus Supplement to provide the premium and rebalance allocation requirements as well as the rider fee and withdrawal percentages that we are currently offering for the Transamerica Income Edge rider as described in the Transamerica Income Edge Rider Fees, Transamerica Income Edge – Summary, Transamerica Income Edge – Withdrawal Percentage, and the Transamerica Income Edge – Required Allocations sections of the prospectus. This Rate Sheet Prospectus Supplement replaces and supersedes any previously issued Rate Sheet Prospectus Supplement(s), and must be used in conjunction with the above effective variable annuity prospectuses, as amended.

The amounts listed below apply for applications signed between October 1, 2019 and November 30, 2019. The premium and rebalance allocation requirements, rider fee and/or withdrawal percentages may be different than those listed below for applications signed after November 30, 2019. The rider fee and withdrawal percentages applicable to your policy will not change for the life of your policy (unless subject to an automatic step-up as described in the Automatic Step-Up section of your prospectus. At the time of an automatic step-up the rider fee percentage may increase by no more than 0.75% from the current rider fee percentage listed below.) The premium and rebalance allocation requirements will not change for the life of your policy. The Rate Sheet Prospectus Supplement applicable to your policy will be included with your prospectus.
