Other Questions You May Have How is my income calculated? Your living benefit withdrawal amount is calculated by multiplying your withdrawal base by the annual withdrawal percentage. Your annual withdrawal percentage is determined by your age at the time your first withdrawal is taken. The withdrawal base is equal to the policy value when the living benefit is added, plus any additional premium payments you make, less any adjustments for excess withdrawals. If you add the living benefit in the first policy year, the withdrawal base does not include any premium enhancements, if applicable. The withdrawal base does not establish or guarantee policy value, surrender value, minimum death benefit, or return for an investment option. Every living benefit anniversary, the withdrawal base is set to equal the greatest the current withdrawal base, the policy value, the highest living benefit Monthiversary value, or the current withdrawal base with 5.5 compounded growth. 14 When the withdrawal base is increased due to the policy value or the highest Monthiversary value, the increase is called an automatic step-up. Automatic stepups and 5.5 compounded growth affect the withdrawal base only and do not affect policy value or other living benefit values. 14 Can my income go down? Not as long as your withdrawals don t exceed your annual living benefit withdrawal amount. Sometimes, however, circumstances change and you may find yourself needing to withdraw more than your living benefit withdrawal amount in a given year. In that event, your future withdrawals will be decreased because excess withdrawals reduce your withdrawal base. Required minimum distributions (RMDs) are not considered excess withdrawals and will not reduce your withdrawal base. The living benefit Monthiversary component an automatic step-up is not applied in living benefit years when an excess withdrawal has been taken. Should the variable annuity s policy value fall to zero, you will receive payments up to the amount allowed under the living benefit for life. If an excess withdrawal causes the policy value to reach zero, the living benefit and policy will terminate. Can my income go up? Yes. We understand you want your retirement income to keep pace with inflation and that unexpected costs can impact your lifestyle in retirement. After you ve started taking withdrawals, there is the opportunity for your living benefit withdrawal amount to increase if your investment options performed well. For each the 12 months leading up to a living benefit anniversary, Transamerica will record the policy value on each Monthiversary (e.g., if the policy is purchased on January 15, Transamerica will record the policy value on the 15 th each month). On the living benefit anniversary date, Transamerica will consider your policy value and the highest Monthiversary value and step up your withdrawal base to the greater these two values. Future withdrawals will be based on this new higher withdrawal base, resulting in a higher living benefit withdrawal amount. All guarantees, including optional benefits, are backed by the claims-paying ability the issuing insurance company. 14 The withdrawal and growth percentages may change and the amounts listed herein may not be the most current rates. The most current percentages are disclosed in the applicable Rate Sheet Prospectus Supplement, which may be amended by us from time to time. We are under no obligation to notify you when we amend the percentages listed herein. Please contact or call our administrative fice to determine whether the rates above have been amended. You should not purchase this living benefit without first obtaining the applicable Rate Sheet Prospectus Supplement. Opportunity and Protection 7

When can I begin living benefit withdrawals? You must wait until the living benefit year after you turn age 59 to begin withdrawals permitted under the living benefit. If the living benefit is purchased prior to age 59, however, the living benefit fee will still apply. Do I always have to accept an automatic step-up? You have the right to reject an automatic step-up within 30 days following a living benefit anniversary, if the living benefit fee percentage increases. If you reject an automatic stepup, you must notify us in a manner which is acceptable to us, however you are eligible for future automatic step-ups. Changes as a result the automatic step-up feature will be reversed. Any increase in the living benefit fee percentage will also be reversed, and the withdrawal base will be set to the withdrawal base prior to the automatic step-up. Additional information All contract and guarantees, including optional benefits and any fixed subaccount crediting rates or annuity payout rates, are backed by the claims-paying ability the issuing insurance company.

If you elect the Retirement Income Choice 2.0 living benefit, Transamerica requires your policy value to be allocated into designated investment options, which may include a volatility control strategy. In periods high market volatility, volatility control strategies could limit your participation in market gains; this may conflict with your investment objectives by limiting your ability to maximize potential growth your policy value and, in turn, the value any guaranteed benefit that is tied to investment performance. Volatility control strategies are intended to help limit overall volatility and reduce the effects significant market downturns during periods high market volatility, providing policy owners with the opportunity for smoother performance and better riskadjusted returns. You pay an additional fee for the living benefits which, in part, pay for protecting the living benefit base from investment losses. Since the living benefit base does not decrease as a result investment losses, volatility control strategies might not provide meaningful additional benefit to you. If you determine that underlying funds with volatility control strategies are not consistent with your investment objectives, there continue to be other designated investment options available under the Retirement Income Choice 2.0 living benefit that do not invest in funds that utilize volatility control strategies. All policies, living benefits, and forms may vary by state, and may not be available in all states.
