Please review the endorsement that applies to your contract withyour advisor.Payment of the annuity fulfills our obligations under the contract in full.<strong>Guaranteed</strong> BenefitsHow we keep track of your depositsWe allocate all of the deposits you make to your contract in one deposityear to an account called the deposit year account. The first deposityear is the period that begins with the contract date and ends on theday before the first anniversary date of the contract date. The contractdate is the valuation date of your initial deposit under the contract.Subsequent deposit years begin on the anniversary of the contract dateand end on the day before the next anniversary of the contract date.Example 1 Deposit Year –BeginningDeposit Year –EndingDeposit Year – 1 November 1, 2013 October 31, 2014Deposit Year – 2 November 1, 2014 October 31, 2015The deposit year account is a notional concept that allows us to keeptrack of your deposits. Your guaranteed benefits under the contract arecalculated based on deposit year accounts.Your guaranteed benefitsYour contract provides certain guaranteed benefits for your investmentin the imaxxGIFs:an imaxx deposit maturity benefitan imaxx contract maturity benefitan imaxx death benefitEach of these benefits is described in the following sections and eachrequires an understanding of the concept of “guaranteed amount”.The guaranteed amount will differ depending on which imaxxGIFguarantee option you select for your contract.8


imaxx tm GIF Guarantee OptionsWhen you allocate your deposits to imaxxGIFs, you must selectone imaxxGIF guarantee option from the three available imaxxGIFguarantee options. The selection may not be changed once the contractis issued. You may not mix or change different imaxxGIF guaranteeoptions within the same contract.1 . 75/75 Guarantee OptionThis option permits investments in the class A units in any of theimaxxGIFs, including the <strong>Transamerica</strong> CI GIPs – imaxxGIF.Deposit Maturity Guarantee75% of your total deposits allocated to the maturing deposit yearaccount (less a proportional market value reduction for withdrawals,including but not limited to the 10% free withdrawal and applicablefees) to imaxxGIFs are guaranteed on a deposit maturity date.

<strong>Guaranteed</strong> AmountsThe guaranteed amount for each deposit year account in the case of (i)the 75/75 guarantee option and (ii) the imaxx deposit maturity benefitand imaxx contract maturity benefit in the 75/100 guarantee option iscalculated as follows:(a) on the effective date of your first deposit, the guaranteed amountis equal to 75% of all deposits allocated to the deposit yearaccount as of that date, and(b)on any subsequent date that we calculate your guaranteedamount, it is equal to the amount determined in accordance withthe following formula:A + (75% of B) – CThe guaranteed amount for any 75% guarantee option is called the“75% guaranteed amount”.The guaranteed amount for each deposit year account in the case of (i)the 100/100 guarantee option and (ii) the imaxx death benefit in the75/100 guarantee option is calculated as follows:(a) on the effective date of your first deposit, the guaranteed amountis equal to 100% of all deposits allocated to the deposit yearaccount as of that date, and(b)on any subsequent date that we calculate your guaranteedamount it is equal to the amount determined in accordance withthe following formula:A + (100% of B) – CThe guaranteed amount for any 100% guarantee option is called the“100% guaranteed amount”.In calculating any 75% guaranteed amount or 100% guaranteed amount,A is the guaranteed amount in respect of the deposit year accounton the last date the guaranteed amount was calculated;B is the aggregate of all deposits allocated to such deposit yearaccount since the previous date the guaranteed amount wascalculated;Cis the aggregate of all amounts each of which is determinedin accordance with the following formula in respect of eachpayment, incurred in respect of a transfer or withdrawal of units,allocated to such deposit year account since the last date theguaranteed amount was calculated:DE is the aggregate unit value of the units cancelled to affect thetransfer or withdrawal of units, determined by multiplying for eachapplicable imaxxGIF, the applicable unit value on the calculationdate by the number of units transferred or withdrawn.is the aggregate unit value of all units allocated to such deposityear account immediately prior to the transfer or withdrawal.Provided, however, that transfers between imaxxGIFs will bedeemed not to affect the guaranteed amount with the exception ofa proportional reduction in the guaranteed amount in respect of anyapplicable fees, including transfer fees.And provided further, that for each ten-year period leading to thedeposit maturity date,(i) if the 75/75 guarantee option is chosen the guaranteed amountwill in no event be less than the amount by which (A + (75% of B))exceeds C;(ii)if the 75/100 guarantee option is chosen the guaranteed amountwill in no event be less than the amount by which (A + (75% of B))exceeds C; or(iii) if the 100/100 guarantee option is chosen, the guaranteedamount will in no event be less than 75% of the amount by which(A + (100% of B)) exceeds C.such amount being calculated for 75% guaranteed amounts without adeduction of any sales charges under the initial sales charge option orto any transfer fee.To illustrate how the guaranteed amount works in a rising market,assume the following:(a) a deposit of $100,000 was allocated to the <strong>Transamerica</strong>CI Conservative GIP – imaxxGIF (ISC option) on January 2, 2014and it was the first deposit allocated to a deposit year account;(b) a withdrawal was made from the <strong>Transamerica</strong> CI Conservative GIP– imaxxGIF on July 2, 2019 (5½ years after the initial deposit) andthe aggregate market value of the units surrendered to effect suchwithdrawal was $66,000;(c) the deposit year account value immediately prior to such withdrawalwas $148,849.22 (assuming a 7.5% compounded annual growth inunit value);(d) there were no other deposits or withdrawals;(e) the imaxx deposit maturity date is December 31, 2023;(f) the 100/100 guarantee option has been chosen in the application.A x DE10


Accordingly, on January 2, 2014 the guaranteed amount wouldbe established at $100,000 and it would remain unchanged untilJuly 2, 2019, when it would decrease by an amount determinedpursuant to the formula set forth above. Under such formula,A is $100,000B is $0.00D is $66,000E is $148,849.22C = A x D or $100,000 x $66,000 or $44,340.17E $148,849.22Accordingly, the guaranteed amount immediately followingthe withdrawal would be equal to (A + 100% of B) - C or,(($100,000 + $0.00) - $44,340.17) or $55,659.83.The deposit year account value of the units immediately following thewithdrawal would be $148,849.22 - $66,000 = $82,849.22.To illustrate how the guaranteed amount works in a declining market,assume the following:(a) a deposit of $100,000 was allocated to the <strong>Transamerica</strong> CIConservative GIP – imaxxGIF (ISC option) on January 2, 2014 and itwas the first deposit allocated to a deposit year account;(b) a withdrawal was made from the <strong>Transamerica</strong> CI Conservative GIP– imaxxGIF on July 2, 2019 (5½ years after the initial deposit) andthe aggregate market value of the units surrendered to effect suchwithdrawal was $66,000;(c) the deposit year account value immediately prior to such withdrawalwas $89,483.59 (assuming a 2% compounded annual rate of declinein unit value);(d) there were no other deposits or withdrawals;(e) the imaxx deposit maturity date is December 31, 2023;(f) the 100/100 guarantee option has been chosen in the application.Accordingly, on January 2, 2014, the guaranteed amount wouldbe established at $100,000 and it would remain unchanged untilJuly 2, 2019, when it would decrease by an amount determinedpursuant to the formula set forth above. Under such formula,A is $100,000.00B is $0.00D is $66,000.00E is $89,483.59C = A x D or $100,000 x $66,000 or $73,756.54E $89,483.59Accordingly, the guaranteed amount immediately following thewithdrawal would be equal to (A + 100% of B) - C or, (($100,000 +$0.00) - $73,756.54) or $26,243.46.The deposit year account value of the units immediately following thewithdrawal would be $89,483.59 - $66,000 = $23,483.59.Actual unit values may increase or decrease accordingto fluctuations in the market value of the assets of theparticular fund.Please consider that when the market value of the Unitswithdrawn is lower than the original purchase price ofthe Units withdrawn, the proportional reduction due to thewithdrawal will reduce the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount by more thanthe actual amount of the withdrawal.11


Deposit Maturity DateA deposit maturity date is the date on which an;(a)(b)imaxx deposit maturity benefit is applicable andthe guaranteed amount for the purposes of calculating the imaxxdeath benefit (the “Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount”) is calculatedEach deposit year of your contract is deemed to have a depositmaturity date, which occurs on the day before the tenth anniversary ofthe beginning of such deposit year, unless the deposit maturity datewould occur within ten years of the contract maturity date in whichcase the deposit maturity date will occur on the contract maturity date.All deposits made by you to your contract during a specific deposityear are deemed to have the same deposit maturity date. The firstdeposit maturity date will be the day before the tenth anniversary ofthe contract date.(a) imaxx TM Deposit Maturity BenefitYou will only receive an imaxx deposit maturity benefit if theannuitant is living on the deposit maturity date and the contract hasnot matured.On a deposit maturity date, you are entitled to receive an imaxxdeposit maturity benefit, which is equal to:In the case of the 75/75 guarantee option and the 75/100 guaranteeoption, the greater of:(i) the 75% guaranteed amount of the deposit year account as at thedeposit maturity date, and(ii) the total unit value of all units in the deposit year account atsuch time.In the case of the 100/100 guarantee option, the greater of:(i) the 100% guaranteed amount of the deposit year account as at thedeposit maturity date, and(ii) the total unit value of all units in the deposit year account atsuch time.If the 75% or the 100% guaranteed amount of the deposit year accountas at the deposit maturity date, is greater than the total fund value(i.e. market value of the units) at such time, <strong>Transamerica</strong> will pay thedifference. The difference is called the “top-up benefit”.We reserve the right not to renew your deposit on the depositmaturity date. In this case, we will pay the imaxx depositmaturity benefit to you less any applicable charges or taxes.A. Cash paymentTo receive the cash payment, you will have to notify us of yourintention before the deposit maturity date. If you have requested a cashpayment, we will pay the applicable imaxx deposit maturity benefitto you less any applicable tax amounts required to be withheld andcharges, if any.The payment of any cash amount(s) will proportionally reduce yourguaranteed amount.B. ReinvestmentIf you do not request a cash payment, <strong>Transamerica</strong> will automaticallyreinvest the deposit maturity benefit.B.1. Operation of the reinvestmentOn the first valuation date immediately following the depositmaturity date,(a) the units of the deposit year account that has reached the depositmaturity date (the “matured deposit year account”) will bewithdrawn and that matured deposit year account will be closed(b) the amount to be reinvested will be deposited in a new deposityear account.(i) the top-up benefit, if any, will be deposited into the <strong>Transamerica</strong>Money Market GIF – imaxxGIF fund in the same guarantee optionas the GIF for which a top-up is being paid on your behalf. If the<strong>Transamerica</strong> Money Market GIF – imaxxGIF is not available atthat time, we will deposit the top-up benefit to another imaxxGIFdesignated by us. The top-up benefit, when paid by us to you inaccordance with your instructions and subject to our then currentadministrative rules, may be considered capital for tax purposes.See Tax Implications, page 37. You should consult your advisor if youhave questions about this benefit.(ii) the deposit maturity benefit, except for the top-up benefit, willbe reinvested into the same GIF unit allocations applicable to thematuring deposit year account.(iii) No ISC or DSC will apply to reinvested amounts or top-up benefitsB.2. Effect of the reinvestmentAny amount reinvested will constitute a first deposit for purposes ofcalculating the guaranteed amount for the applicable deposit year.The “old” deposit year account from which the reinvested amountoriginates will disappear. Units purchased using reinvested amountswill not be subject to DSC charges.Payment or reinvestment of imaxx depositmaturity benefitYou have 2 options regarding the imaxx deposit maturity benefit:A. request a cash payment of the imaxx deposit maturity benefit; orB. reinvest the imaxx deposit maturity benefit.12


Example:Owner/annuitant deposits $10,000 on June 10, 2014. This deposit is made to deposit year A: June 10, 2014 – June 9, 2015.The deposit maturity date for deposit year A commencing June 10, 2014 is June 9, 2024.On June 9, 2024, the owner/annuitant chooses to reinvest the imaxx Deposit Maturity Benefit. This deposit is made to deposit year Bcommencing June 10, 2024. Deposit year B commencing June 10, 2024 will therefore mature on June 9, 2034.Assuming that the owner/annuitant is living at the time of the deposit maturity date of the deposit years and no deposits/withdrawals haveoccurred, the following charts will show how the imaxx Deposit Maturity Benefit will be invested in an up market and in a down market.

(b) Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount on Deposit Maturity DateOn each deposit maturity date that the contract is in force, the death guaranteed amount will be calculated as follows:(a) For Class A Units, 75% of the deposit maturity benefit in effect on such deposit maturity date; and(b) For Class B Units and Class C Units, 100% of the deposit maturity benefit on such deposit maturity date.Example of reinvestment of Deposit Maturity Benefit and calculation of the Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount on a Deposit Maturity DateAssumptions:Owner/annuitant is age 45Owner/annuitant has chosen the 75/100 guarantee optionIn the years 2015 and 2016, the guaranteed amount is greater than the market value. As a result, no resets were processed.The first reset occurred on May 1 st 2017.Owner/annuitant has made 4 deposits into one non-registered contract as follows:Deposit date Value of deposit at time of deposit FundMay 1, 2014 $6,000 1November 3, 2015 $2,000 2March 14, 2016 $6,000 3April 3, 2017 $3,000 2As a result the owner/annuitant has made 4 deposits in 3 deposit year accounts, as follows:Deposit Year Account 1 - May 1, 2014 - April 30, 2015Deposit Year Account 2 - May 1, 2015 - April 30, 2016Deposit Year Account 3 - May 1, 2016 - April 30, 2017This chart will illustrate (a) the expiry and renewal of deposit year account 1; and (b) the calculation of the death guaranteed amount on depositmaturity date in up and down-markets.If the owner/annuitant is still living on the deposit maturity date for Deposit Year 1 (April 30, 2024) the death guaranteed amount will be calculatedbased on the deposit maturity benefit on that deposit maturity date.On April 30, 2024, the death guaranteed amount will be as follows under the 2 scenarios below:Scenario #1: The deposit maturitybenefit exceeds the current 100%Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount75% Deposit Maturity <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount $4,500 $4,500100% Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount (after automatic reset) $6,000 $6,000Total market value of all units in Deposit Year Account 1 $10,000 $4,000Deposit maturity benefit reinvested to new deposit year account atdeposit maturity date$10,000 $4,500New 75% deposit maturity benefit $7,500 $3,375New 100% Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount applicable to the reneweddeposit year account$10,000 $4,500Scenario #2: The deposit maturitybenefit is lower than the current100% Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> AmountThe total value is not guaranteed and, subject to any applicable death maturity guarantee, any part of the premium or other amountthat is allocated to an imaxxGIF is invested at the risk of the contractholder and may increase or decrease in value.14


imaxx tm Contract Maturity BenefitThis section applies only if the annuitant is living and the contract is inforce on the contract maturity date.An imaxx contract maturity benefit will be payable on the contractmaturity date.The contract maturity date refers to:Contract TypeRSP, RIF, LIRA, LRSP, LIF, PRIF,RLSP and RLIFNew Brunswick LIRA and LIFNewfoundland LIRA and LIFMaturity DateDecember 31 st of the year in which theAnnuitant turns 100 years of ageDecember 31 st of the year in which theAnnuitant turns 90 years of ageDecember 31 st of the year in which theAnnuitant turns 80 years of ageIn the case of the 75/75 guarantee option and 75/100 guarantee optionthe imaxx contract maturity benefit is equal to the aggregate of allamounts, each of which is determined in respect of a deposit yearaccount, and each of which is equal to, the greater of;(i) the 75% guaranteed amount as at the contract maturity date, and(ii) the total unit value of all units in the deposit year account as at thecontract maturity date.In the case of the 100/100 guarantee option, the imaxx contractmaturity benefit is equal to the aggregate of all amounts, each ofwhich is determined in respect of a deposit year account, and each ofwhich is equal to the greater of;(i) the 100% guaranteed amount as at the contract maturity date, and(ii) the total unit value of all units in the deposit year account as at thecontract maturity date.For greater certainty, and subject to a proportional reduction for anywithdrawals or surrenders made from the contract, in no event willthe imaxx contract maturity benefit be less than 75% of the amountsdeposited by the contract owner to the contract. Top up benefitsare not included in such calculations. When calculating the contractmaturity benefit for deposits made under the initial sales chargeoption, we will not deduct the initial sales charge from the calculationof the guaranteed amount. Therefore, the guaranteed amount will notbe less than 75% of the deposit before deducting the applicable initialsales charge less proportional market value reductions for withdrawals.Any amount that is allocated to a segregated fund is investedat the risk of the contract holder and may increase or decreasein value.Unless otherwise instructed (i.e. for payment of a lump sum), thecontract maturity benefit will be applied to provide an annuity basedon the life of the owner, guaranteed for 10 years in accordance withapplicable legislation and <strong>Transamerica</strong>’s administrative rules. If theannuity payment based on the contract maturity benefit will be lessthan $50 per month, we have the right to pay the contract maturitybenefit to the appropriate person in one lump sum on the contractmaturity date. Payment of the annuity (or lump sum if applicable) fulfillsour obligations under the contract in full.Residents of QuebecCalculation of annual annuity paymentsUnless prohibited by law, <strong>Transamerica</strong> will pay the owner a thenavailable life annuity with a maximum guaranteed period of ten yearson the owner’s life or if a joint life is chosen, on the younger age of theowner’s life and another life as the owner may designate. The annuitywill be based on the contract maturity benefit at the contract maturitydate. If the owner does not select an annuity, the applicable annuitywill be a single life annuity, based on the owner’s life with a ten yearguarantee period or if required by law, a joint life annuity.In the case of an RSP or LIRA the annuity will be based on the totalcontract value at RSP age in accordance with the terms of the RSP orLIRA endorsement.<strong>Transamerica</strong> will calculate the annuity payable to the owner basedon its then current projected annuity factors applicable to the type andterms of the annuity chosen. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the annualannuity payment for each $1,000 being annuitized with a maximumguarantee period of ten years or less shall not be lower than theamount set out in Table 1 for the applicable age on which the annuityis based. The applicable age on which the annuity is based is the ageof the annuitant in the case of a single life annuity or the age of theyounger of the two annuitants in the case of a joint life annuity.Table 1 – Annual Annuity Payment per $1,000Age of AnnuitantAnnuity Payment50 $15.3955 $16.6760 $18.1965 $20.0170 $22.2375 $25.0180 $28.5885 $33.3490 $40.0195 $50.01100 $66.6715


Application of Table 1Table 1 sets out the minimum annuity payment the owner will receiveon an annual basis for each $1,000 being annuitized. This minimum iscalculated as follows:Annuitized Amount x Amount in Table 11000Example of Minimum Annual Annuity Payments Using Table 1To illustrate how to calculate the minimum annual annuity paymentsusing Table 1, consider the following example:Assumptions:the contract is not registered.Mr. Jones is both the owner and the annuitant.Mr. Jones turned 100 on December 24, 2013.the contract maturity date is December 31, 2013.on the contract maturity date, Mr. Jones is still alive.on the contract maturity date, the contract maturity benefit is$100,000.as an alternative to the default annuity to be provided under thiscontract, Mr. Jones requested an annual joint life annuity based onhis life and the life of his spouse, who is 90 years oldthe amount to be annuitized is based on the contract maturitybenefit, that is $100,000. The applicable age is the younger age ofthe two annuitants. In this case, the wife who is age 90.Based on Table 1, the annual annuity payment per $1,000 forage 90 = $40.01.Therefore the Minimum Annual Annuity Payment = $4,001Payment of the annuity$100,000 x 40.011000If you have chosen to receive an annuity with periodic payments morefrequently than annually, we reserve the right to make the paymentsannually if each payment would be less than $50 per payment.Payment of the annuity fulfills our obligations under the contract in full.16


imaxx tm Death BenefitAn imaxx death benefit is payable if the annuitant dies prior to thecontract maturity date. If the death benefit date falls after the contractmaturity date, the contract has matured. The death benefit is nolonger payable and the person entitled to the contract maturity benefitreceives it on the contract maturity date.Where a successor annuitant has been designated in the contract andis alive on the death of the annuitant, the death benefit is payable onthe death of the last to die of the annuitant or successor annuitant.In the case of the 75/75 guarantee option the imaxx death benefit isequal to the aggregate of all amounts, each of which is determined inrespect of a deposit year account, and each of which is equal to, thegreater of:(i) the 75% guaranteed amount as at the death benefit date, and(ii) the total value of all units in the deposit year account as at thedeath benefit date.The death benefit is calculated on the death benefit date which isthe first valuation date on which we have received proof satisfactoryto us of the annuitant’s death. If the death benefit date falls beforethe contract maturity date, then we will pay the death benefit to theappropriate person when we receive proof satisfactory to us of theclaimant’s right to the death benefit.In the case of the 75/100 guarantee option or the 100/100 guaranteeoption, the imaxx death benefit is equal to the aggregate of allamounts, each of which is determined in respect of a deposit yearaccount, and each of which is equal to, the greater of:(i) the 100% guaranteed amount as at the death benefit date, and(ii) the total unit value of all units in the deposit year account as at thedeath benefit date.The death benefit will be adjusted for any payments we make betweenthe date of the annuitant’s death and the date we receive proofsatisfactory to us at our head office.In the event that the annuitant dies within 12 months of the effectivedate of the contract, <strong>Transamerica</strong> levies the applicable deferred salecharge on payment of death benefits relating to the original depositvalue of DSC units invested under the 75/100 or 100/100 GuaranteeOption. The deferred sale charge is subject to the deferred sales chargeschedule and is charged as a percentage of the original deposit valueof the DSC units as of the death benefit date.For greater certainty, and subject to a proportional reduction for anywithdrawals or surrenders made from the contract, in no event will theimaxx death benefit be less than 75% of the amounts deposited bythe contract owner to the contract. When calculating the death benefitfor deposits made under the initial sales charge option, we will notdeduct the initial sales charge from the calculation of the guaranteedamount. Therefore, the guaranteed amount will not be less than 75%of the deposit before deducting the applicable initial sales charge lessproportional market value reductions for withdrawals. Top up benefitsare not included in such calculations.If the death benefit date falls before the contract maturity date, thenwe will pay the death benefit to the appropriate person when wereceive proof satisfactory to us of the claimant’s right to the deathbenefit.In some circumstances, there may be delays in obtaining satisfactoryproof of death and we may be notified of the death of the annuitantbefore receipt of proof of death (for example, a death certificate).In such event, on the date we are notified of the death of the lastsurviving annuitant, we will transfer all units in the funds held in thecontract into the <strong>Transamerica</strong> Money Market GIF – imaxxGIF or toanother fund we designate if the <strong>Transamerica</strong> Money Market GIF –imaxxGIF is not available. This date is called the “Notice Date”.Notification of death has to be in writing and meet the requirementsset out in our administrative rules.As of the notice date, no further transactions can be made. Forexample, scheduled withdrawals, including payments of RRIF MinimumAmounts will be stopped.Subsequently, on the valuation date we receive proof of death, thedeath benefit will be calculated.Registered plan requirementsIf the contract is an RSP, and you die before it is transferred to aRIF, we will pay the death benefit to your beneficiary in one lumpsum. You may wish to consult your advisor to discuss certain taximplications (for example, a “refund of premiums” in accordance withthe Income Tax Act). If the contract is a RIF and you die, your spouse(or common-law partner as the terms are defined under the IncomeTax Act (<strong>Canada</strong>)) will receive the payments if you have so indicatedon your application. If you have not indicated that your spouse shouldreceive payments after your death, then your beneficiary will receivethe death benefit in one lump sum. Please consult your advisor formore information. If the contract is a LIRA, RLSP or locked-in RSP andyou die before it is transferred to a LIF, RLIF or the contract is a LIF orRLIF and you die before the contract maturity date, then the paymentof death benefit must comply with applicable pension legislation andthe requirements of an RSP or RIF. This generally means the deathbenefit must be paid to your spouse (if any), unless a spousal waiveris completed. Please review the endorsement that applies to yourcontract carefully. Payment of the death benefit fulfills our obligationsunder the contract in full.Any amount that is allocated to a segregated fund is invested atthe risk of the contract holder(s) and may increase or decreasein value.17

Reset of Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> AmountSubject to the following reset rules, <strong>Transamerica</strong> will automaticallyreset your guaranteed amount for purposes of calculating the imaxxdeath benefit (the “Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount”) on each anniversary ofthe contract date (the “reset date”).A. Reset of Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> AmountA.1 Reset rules for Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> AmountThe reset of the Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount will operate as follows:(a) The reset of the Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount will take placeautomatically if on the reset date:the annuitant has not reached his or her 81 st birthday on thecontract anniversary date;the annuitant is alive; andthe contract is in force.(b) The reset of your Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount will not change thedeposit maturity date or the contract maturity date, however,when a deposit year account matures and is paid out or reinvestedinto a new deposit year account, the Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amountassociated with the maturing deposit year account will expire.(c) <strong>Transamerica</strong> reserves the right to discontinue, modify or suspendreset rights at any time by giving you prior written notice of at least60 days.A.2 Reset of the Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount for the75/75 guarantee optionIf you chose the 75/75 guarantee option, your new guaranteed amountfor the imaxx death benefit on a reset date will be equal to theaggregate of all amounts, each of which is determined in respect of adeposit year account, and each of which is the greater of:(i) the 75% guaranteed amount as at such reset date; and(ii) 75% of the total unit value of all units in the deposit year accountas at such reset date.A.3 Reset of the Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount for the75/100 and 100/100 guarantee optionsIf you chose the 75/100 or the 100/100 guarantee options, your newguaranteed amount for the imaxx death benefit on a reset date will beequal to the aggregate of all amounts, each of which is determined inrespect of a deposit year account, and each of which is the greater of:(i) the 100% guaranteed amount as at such reset date; and(ii) the total unit value of all units in the deposit year account as atsuch reset date.19

How to invest in imaxxGIFsHow we calculate the value of your investmentin an imaxxGIFValuation dateAny day on which we calculate the market value of an imaxxGIF’sassets is called a valuation date. We will generally value the imaxxGIFseach business day. <strong>Transamerica</strong> may cause the imaxxGIFs to be valuedon a less frequent basis, in which case you will be notified of the changeupon 60 days’ notice. A reduction in frequency of valuation constitutes afundamental change and accordingly is subject to the terms of the CLHIAGuidelines on Individual Variable Insurance Contracts.We may postpone valuation:(i) for any period during which one or more of the nationally recognizedstock exchanges are closed for other than a customary weekend orholiday closing,(ii) for a period during which trading on securities exchanges isrestricted, or(iii) when there is an emergency during which it is not reasonable forus to dispose of investments owned by the funds or to acquireinvestments on behalf of the funds or to determine the total valueof the funds.Market value of imaxxGIF AssetsWe determine the market value of an imaxxGIF’s assets on avaluation date in accordance with Canadian Generally AcceptedAccounting Principles (“GAAP”). For unlisted securities, we use themarket values provided by recognized dealers in that particular security.We value short-term notes at cost, which, together with their accruedinvestment income is equivalent to fair value given the short termnature of these investments.<strong>Investment</strong>s valued in foreign currencies are translated intoCanadian dollars, in the manner determined by us from time to time.Gains and losses arising from these transactions are included in animaxxGIF’s income.Income from investments is recognized on the accrual basis. Thismeans that we recognize the income as it is earned. Dividend incomeis recognized on the ex-dividend date. Interest from income is accrueddaily. Realized gains and losses are calculated and recognized on anaverage cost basis.imaxxGIFs are not subject to tax on income and realized capital gainswhich are paid or payable to the fund within the calendar year. Theincome and/or gains that is allocated and paid to you by an imaxxGIFis taxable in your hands. imaxxGIFs are subject to withholding taxeson foreign income (where applicable) The income and realized capitalgains payable to the imaxxGIF are allocated to you and are subject totax. Please refer to the section entitled ‘Tax implications’.imaxxGIF classesFor administrative purposes, each imaxxGIF is divided into units orfractions of units issued in one or more classes. At the date of thisInformation Folder, each imaxxGIF has up to three classes designatedas classes A, B and, where applicable, C. Class A consists of units withthe 75/75 guarantee option, Class B consists of units with the 75/100guarantee option and Class C consists of units with the 100/100guarantee option. Currently, Class C units are only available for some ofthe imaxxGIFs, as shown in Appendix D. We may create, discontinueor redesignate a class of units at any time and in our sole discretion.Any discontinuance or redesignation will not affect the guaranteeoption that you choose for units that you obtained under your contractprior to such discontinuance or redesignation. We may designate thecharacteristics and provisions attaching to the units of each class. Wemay also add additional classes to the imaxxGIFs and <strong>Transamerica</strong> CIGIPs – imaxxGIF from time to time.imaxxGIF unit valueWe calculate the unit value of a unit of a class on a valuation date bysubtracting the liabilities and expenses of the imaxxGIF attributable tothat class from the class share of the imaxxGIF’s assets. This amountis then divided by the number of units of the imaxxGIF allocated to thatclass on the previous valuation date. We determine which expenses areallocated to a class and which expenses are allocated to all classes.See Allocating expenses among the classes, page 28.The value of your investment in an imaxxGIFThe value of your investment in an imaxxGIF on any valuation date(the “total fund value”) equals:the unit value of the applicable class of units of the imaxxGIF;multiplied by the number of units of that class in the imaxxGIFallocated to your contract.The unit value of a class of units in a particular imaxxGIF remains ineffect until the next valuation date.Currently, for each outstanding class of units, we automaticallyreinvest the earnings of an imaxxGIF within that imaxxGIF. This willbe reflected in the value of units of that class in the imaxxGIF. Wemay increase the number of units in an imaxxGIF by splitting a unitinto two or more units, or decrease the number of imaxxGIF units bycombining two or more units. The total fund value of your contract willnot be affected by this activity.The value of your imaxxGIF investments equals the sum of yourinvestment in all imaxxGIFs. Unit value is not guaranteed butvaries in accordance with fluctuations in the market value ofthe assets of each imaxxGIF.21


Submitting a request for deposit, transfer orwithdrawalIf you wish to deposit to, transfer or withdraw money from yourcontract, you must provide us with instructions. Your instructions maybe forwarded to us at our head office through authorized methods.Currently, we accept order requests via written request, by facsimile; orfrom a distributor on the FundSERV network.If your request includes all the information we require, we consider itto be in good order.If your request is not in good order, we have the right to reject orpostpone the acceptance of your request for any reason, includingincomplete information. You are responsible for any expenses orinvestment losses that result from incomplete or incorrect informationprovided by you.The effective date of your requestFor non-electronic transmissions, including facsimile transmissions,if we receive your request in good order at our head office by 3 p.m.(Toronto time) on a valuation date, this is the effective date of yourorder.

If you purchase morethan one contract with the same annuitant, the same spousal status,the same type of plan under a governing pension regulator, the sameguarantee option and the same registered or non-registered status,we have the right to combine those contracts into one contract withidentical options to the earlier contract.This means that you may only have one of each of the followingcontracts with the same annuitant, as follows:75/75 guarantee option RSP contract75/75 guarantee option RIF contract75/75 guarantee option spousal RSP contract75/75 guarantee option spousal RIF contract75/75 guarantee option LIRA/LRSP/RLSP contract(per governing pension regulator)75/75 guarantee option LIF/RLIF contract(per governing pension regulator)75/75 guarantee option PRIF contract(per governing pension regulator)75/100 guarantee option RSP contract75/100 guarantee option RIF contract75/100 guarantee option spousal RSP contract75/100 guarantee option spousal RIF contract75/100 guarantee option LIRA/LRSP/RLSP contract(per governing pension regulator)75/100 guarantee option LIF/RLIF contract(per governing pension regulator)75/100 guarantee option PRIF contract(per governing pension regulator)100/100 guarantee option RSP contract100/100 guarantee option RIF contract100/100 guarantee option spousal RSP contract100/100 guarantee option spousal RIF contract100/100 guarantee option LIRA/LRSP/RLSP contract(per governing pension regulator)100/100 guarantee option LIF/RLIF contract(per governing pension regulator)100/100 guarantee option PRIF contract(per governing pension regulator)DepositsYou may make deposits under the contract at any time before theearliest of:the date of the annuitant’s death,the annuitant’s 81 st birthday, and10 years before the contract maturity date.In addition, the annuitant must be a Canadian resident at the time yourcontract is opened. We will deduct any applicable taxes and chargesfrom amounts invested. These restrictions are in addition to any agerestrictions on deposits imposed by law.Except for a deposit that is the result of a reinvestment on a depositmaturity date, with your initial deposit, we must receive the requireddocumentation in good order including:an applicationany other information we may require, which may include evidenceof the good health and insurability of the annuitant.We must receive investment instructions from you for all depositsyou make under the contract. Where the deposit results from thereinvestment of a deposit maturity date, we will continue the sameinvestment allocations as the maturing deposit year account unless youinstruct us otherwise. See page 13 for details of the maturing deposityear account.When you deposit money to your contract, the number of units creditedto your contract will be equal to the amount of your deposit divided bythe applicable unit value as of the valuation date that is the effectivedate of your request.22


We have the right to:refuse any depositrefund any deposit previously accepted by us within90 days of depositlimit the amount of any deposit to an imaxxGIF(s)refuse to open new contractsimpose additional requirements at our discretion before any depositis made.We reserve the right to make changes, additions or deletions to theserules from time to time.Scheduled Pre-Authorized ChequingScheduled Pre-Authorized Chequing or PACs are deposits made forthe same amount, at the same frequency and to the same funds thatyou have selected. You may elect PAC deposits to be made on anannual, semi-annual, quarterly, monthly, bi-weekly and weekly basis.PACs are only available for RRSP contracts. We will make regularPAC withdrawals directly from your bank account. We have the rightto cancel the PAC at any time, upon 10 days’ notice to you. If wediscontinue a fund or close a fund to new deposits, we have the rightto direct the PAC to another fund. Please see Availability of imaxxGIFson page 36 for more information on fund discontinuance. Subject to ourAdministrative Rules, we will stop processing deposits by PAC if theyare returned unprocessed. You will be required to notify us in writing tore-establish deposits to the contract by PAC.The value of units allocated to the contract in respect of aparticular fund is not guaranteed but varies in accordance withfluctuations in the market value of the assets of such fund.Minimum and maximum depositsThe minimum initial deposit required to issue your contract is $10,000.The minimum that can be allocated to a specific imaxxGIF is $250.Each additional deposit to the same imaxxGIF must be at least $100.The minimum Pre-Authorized Chequing (PAC) deposit is $50.00, ofwhich the minimum deposit to a particular imaxxGIF is $25.00.No more than $500,000 may be contributed to your contract in one (1)calendar year without our prior written consent.Minimum guaranteed amountSubject to any applicable legislative or regulatory requirementsincluding those applicable where the contract is issued as a RSP, LIRA,RLSP, locked-in RSP, RIF, PRIF, RLIF or LIF, if, at any time, the guaranteedamount is less than $500, we have the right to cancel all of the unitsupon 30 days notice to you. When, in our discretion, we exercise thisright, the total fund value, less any withdrawal charges, any otherunpaid administrative fees and charges owing by you to us and anytaxes which may be required by law to be withheld, will be paid to you.Deposit sales charge optionsExcept for a deposit that is the result of a reinvestment on a depositmaturity date, your advisor receives a fee for the services providedto you when you deposit money to your contract to be invested in animaxxGIF. You have two options:Initial sales charge (ISC): With this option, you negotiate the salescharge with your advisor of up to 5% of the amount of your investment.This amount will be deducted from your investment before units areallocated to your contract. For example, if you invest $1,000 and younegotiate a 5% initial sales charge, $950 will be the amount depositedin the imaxxGIF and $50 will be paid as a sales charge. There is nodeferred sales charge when you make a withdrawal against theseunits. Units obtained under this option are called ISC units.Deferred sales charge (DSC): With this option, you pay no sales chargeto your advisor at the time of deposit. Instead, you agree to pay a feeto us if you withdraw money against these units within six years of theeffective date of deposit. See the deferred sales charge, page 26 formore information. Units obtained under this option are called DSC units.At any time before the contract maturity date and subject to ouradministrative rules and any applicable charges and fees, you mayrequest an exchange of DSC units for ISC units (including DSC unitsunder the 10% Free Withdrawal Privilege).An exchange of DSC units to ISC units will not be processed as atransfer but a surrender of the originating units and deposit of theresulting units (i.e. a sell and a buy). Exchanges will therefore impactthe deposit maturity date and guaranteed amounts applicable to theoriginating units and may incur a deferred sales charge in accordancewith the chart on page 26. When moving from a DSC unit to an ISCunit, the exchange may be subject to a negotiated ISC sales chargebetween 0 to 5% with your advisor. This transaction is a taxable event.As with deposits, transfers and withdrawals, the value(s)of the units involved in any exchange are subject to marketfluctuations. As an exchange transaction will impact maturitydates and guaranteed amounts, an exchange of DSC units toISC units may not be advisable in many circumstances. Pleaseconsult your advisor before requesting any exchange of DSCunits to ISC units.We reserve the right to make changes, additions or deletions to theseoptions from time to time.Processing your depositCurrently, if your deposit is processed electronically, we must receivepayment and all necessary documents within three business days ofthe effective date of your deposit. If we do not receive payment and allof the necessary documents within three business days, we will cancelthe units allocated to your contract on the next business day. If theproceeds are greater than the deposit, we will reimburse your depositto you and retain the balance. If the proceeds are less than the amountyou deposited, you will owe the difference to us.23


If your deposit is paper-based, a cheque payable to <strong>Transamerica</strong> <strong>Life</strong><strong>Canada</strong> must accompany the necessary documents before your depositwill be processed.<strong>Investment</strong> instructions in good order must be received with all deposits.TransfersAt any time before the contract maturity date or the death of theannuitant, whichever comes first, you may transfer your investment inan imaxxGIF to another imaxxGIF.Transfers to another imaxxGIF(s)Whenever you transfer between imaxxGIFs, such transfers constitutea surrender of units of one fund and a corresponding acquisition ofunits in the other fund. Transfers between imaxxGIFs do not incursales charges. For transfers involving DSC units, the existing surrenderschedule will apply to the new units.Because segregated funds are generally considered to be long terminvestments, we discourage investors from excessive trading in unitsof an imaxxGIF with the object of realizing a short-term gain. Suchtrading may not only harm an imaxxGIF’s performance, but may alsoaffect the value of other investors’ holdings in the imaxxGIF.Your first four transfers between imaxxGIFs in any calendar year arefree. You may not carry forward any unused portion of this privilegefrom one year to the next. We will deduct a transfer fee of up to 1%of the amount transferred for the fifth and subsequent transfers in thesame calendar year. We consider any number of transfers that youmake on any single day to be one transfer for the purposes of this rule.Additionally, we reserve the right to delay transfers in unusual orexceptional circumstances where it is not practical to dispose ofinvestments made in a fund or where it would be unfair to othercontract owners.Any transfer fees charged to you will proportionally reduce yourguaranteed amount under your contract.The large total value contracts rule applies to transfers betweenimaxxGIFs. See Large total value contracts rule, page 26.We have the right to:refuse any transfer requestlimit the amount transferred to any particular imaxxGIF(s)impose additional conditions at our discretion before any transfersare made.You may not transfer DSC units for ISC units, and vice versa within thesame contract.Moving between funds of different sales charges (i.e. DSC to ISC)is not considered a fund transfer and may trigger surrender fees.This transaction is processed as a withdrawal from the contract anda subsequent purchase back into the contract. Guarantees will beimpacted. This is a taxable transaction.When moving from a DSC unit to an ISC unit, you may have tonegotiate a sales charge between 0 to 5% with your advisor.The value of the units cancelled or acquired for a fund transferis not guaranteed but varies in accordance with fluctuations inthe market value of the assets of the particular fund.WithdrawalsIf your contract is a registered plan, certain regulatory requirements mayapply to withdrawals from the contract and withdrawals may have certaintax consequences. Withdrawals are generally considered a disposition fortax purposes and will be taxable. Please discuss your situation with youradvisor before you make any decisions.You may make withdrawals under your contract at any time before theearlier of:the contract maturity date, andthe death of the annuitant.If you have decided to schedule withdrawals (e.g. Systematic WithdrawalPlan or custom or minimum payments under a RIF, LIF, RLIF or PRIF) fromyour contract (for example, under a RIF, LIF, RLIF or systematic withdrawalplan), this will be considered a withdrawal.Scheduled withdrawals from a systematic withdrawal plan andcustom or minimum payments from a RIF, LIF, RLIF or PRIF plan willproportionally reduce the imaxx deposit maturity benefit.You must indicate in writing the amount and the imaxxGIF that you wishto withdraw from. We will withdraw all amounts according to the writteninstructions you provide.We will not process your withdrawal order if it is not in good order. Forexample, your withdrawal order will not be in good order if you do notspecify the imaxxGIF you wish to withdraw funds from or if you havespecified the source of the withdrawal but the source is insufficient tomeet your withdrawal request.In the event of exceptional or unusual circumstances, we have the rightto delay payment of any withdrawal amount for a reasonable amount oftime after the effective date. If we delay payment for more than 30 days,we will pay interest from the effective date of the withdrawal at a ratedetermined by us.Please refer to the section entitled “<strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amounts”, page 10to see how withdrawals affect guarantee benefits.24


Processing a withdrawalWhen your withdrawal request is received in good order at our head office,we will pay you the value of the withdrawn units, after deducting:any applicable deferred sales charge,any unpaid administrative fees and charges you owe us, andany applicable taxes.We have the right to delay the effective date of any withdrawal order fromany imaxxGIF for up to seven business days in order to properly processyour withdrawal.When you withdraw money from your contract that was invested in theimaxxGIFs, the number of units redeemed from the applicable imaxxGIFwill be equal to the amount of your withdrawal divided by the unit value asof the valuation date that is the effective date of your withdrawal request.Withdrawals, including but not limited to the 10% free withdrawal, willproportionally reduce the guaranteed amount of your contract.Example of a withdrawalAssumptionsannuitant is age 45owner/annuitant has chosen the 100/100 guarantee optionowner/annuitant has made 4 deposits into one registered contractowner/annuitant wishes to make a withdrawal of $5,500 from thecontract – split into $5,200 from fund 2 and $300 from fund 1 onJuly 17, 2018; no other withdrawals have been madeFrom the years 2013 to 2017, the guaranteed amount is greater than themarket value. As a result no resets were processed.NOTE: THE PURPOSE OF THIS EXAMPLE IS TO SHOW THE IMPACT OFWITHDRAWALS ON GUARANTEESThe owner/annuitant has made 4 deposits in deposit year accounts,as follows:Deposit date Value of deposit at time of deposit FundMay 1, 2013 $6,000 1November 3, 2014 $2,000 2March 14, 2017 $5,000 3October 1, 2017 $3,000 2Deposit Year Account 1 - May 1, 2013 – April 30, 2014Deposit Year Account 2 – May 1, 2014 – April 30, 2015Deposit Year Account 3 – May 1, 2015 – April 30, 2016Deposit Year Account 4 – May 1, 2016 – April 30, 2017Deposit date Fund <strong>Guaranteed</strong>amountDeposit year 1May 1, 2013 –April 30, 2014Deposit year 2May 1, 2014 –April 30, 2015Deposit year 3May 1, 2015 –April 30, 2016Deposit year 4May 1, 2016 –April 30, 2017Closing market value asof the date of withdrawal– on July 17, 2018Market value ofthe withdrawal onJuly 17, 2018ProportionalguaranteedreductionNew <strong>Guaranteed</strong>Amount as of end ofday on July 17, 2018*1 $6,000 $4,000 $300 ($450) $5,5502 $2,000 $3,000 $3,000 ($2,000) $03 $5,000 $8,000 $0 $0 $5,0002 $3,000 $5,000 $2,200 ($1,320) $1,680*For purposes of this column, the New <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount is used to determine both the maturity benefit and the death benefit.On July 17, 2018, the owner wished to withdraw $5,200 from fund 2 and $300 from fund 1. For fund 2, the first in, first out rule dictates that theguaranteed amount of deposit year 2 account must be reduced first followed by guaranteed amount of the deposit year 4 account. For fund 1, theowner only has money in fund 1 in the deposit year 1 account and all of the reduction in guaranteed amount will take place in deposit year 1.The value of the units withdrawn from any fund to make a withdrawal for a certain cash amount is not guaranteed but varies inaccordance with fluctuations in the market value of the assets of the particular fund.Please consider that when the market value of the Units withdrawn is lower than the original purchase price of the Unitswithdrawn, the proportional reduction due to the withdrawal will reduce the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount by more than the actual amount ofthe withdrawal.25


The Deferred Sales ChargeYou pay a deferred sales charge if (a) you request a withdrawal of DSCunits within six years of the effective date of each deposit; or (b) theannuitant dies within 12 months of the effective date of the contract.(a) DSC upon WithdrawalCurrently, the deferred sales charge is charged as a percentage ofthe value of the DSC units withdrawn as of the effective date of thedeposit of those DSC units. The percentage charged varies basedon the time that has passed since the effective date of deposit forthe DSC units being withdrawn. The following schedule shows thedeferred sales charges we currently charge:Time since the effective dateof a deposit:0-12 months 6.0%13-24 months 5.0%25-36 months 4.0%37-48 months 3.0%49-60 months 2.0%61-72 months 1.0%73 or more months 0.0%Deferred sales charge:(as percentage of the originalpurchase price of the DSC units)This deferred sales charge schedule is subject to change and any newdeposits made after such change will be subject to the new deferredsales charge schedule.To minimize your costs, we redeem units in the order they were purchased– first in, first out, until the total requested amount is withdrawn.(b) DSC upon DeathIn the event that the annuitant dies within 12 months of the effective dateof the contract, <strong>Transamerica</strong> levies the applicable deferred sale chargeon payment of death benefits relating to the original deposit value ofDSC units invested under the 75/100 or 100/100 Guarantee Option. Thedeferred sale charge is subject to the deferred sales charge schedule andis charged as a percentage of the original deposit value of the DSC unitsas of the death benefit date.10% free withdrawal privilegeYou are entitled in each calendar year to withdraw up to 10% of thenumber of DSC Units allocated to a fund without paying DSC. Any unusedportion of the privilege may not be carried forward from one year to thenext. We reserve the right to discontinue or change this right at any time.In your withdrawal request, you must specify:which imaxxGIF(s) you wish to withdraw from, andthe withdrawal date, which must be before the earlier of contractmaturity date and the death of the annuitant.The aggregate number of DSC units that may be withdrawn at any timeunder this privilege is the sum of the following:(a) 10% of the number of DSC units which were allocated to the imaxxGIFat the end of the previous calendar year, and(b) for each deferred sales charge deposit allocated to the imaxxGIF in thethen current calendar year as of the effective date of the withdrawal,10% of the DSC units acquired with that deposit multiplied by thenumber of days the new units have been held in the current calendaryear (not including the day of allocation) divided by 365 days (366 in aleap year). The day of the withdrawal is considered a holding day; less(c) any DSC units previously withdrawn in the current year underthis privilege.ExampleDecember 30, 2013 – Fund A – deposit of 500 DSC unitsJanuary 10, 2014 – Fund A – additional deposit of 500 DSC unitsApril 17, 2014 – Fund A – additional deposit of 500 DSC unitsJune 12, 2014 – Initial request for 10% free withdrawalFor December 30, 2013 – 500 units x 10% = 50 free additional unitsavailable to be withdrawn from your imaxxGIF.For January 10, 2014 – (10% of 500 DSC units = 50 free additional units inaggregate) x 154/366* = 21.035 free units available to be withdrawn fromyour imaxxGIF as of June 12, 2014For April 17, 2014 – (10% of 500 DSC units = 50 free additional units inaggregate) x 56/366** = 7.650 free additional units available to bewithdrawn from your imaxxGIF as of June 12, 2014Total free units available to be withdrawn from your imaxxGIF as ofJune 12, 2014 is 50 + 21.035 + 7.650 = 78.685 free additional units.*154 represents the number of days from January 11 to June 12 inclusive**56 represents the number of days from April 18 to June 12 inclusiveYou may not carry forward any unused portion of this privilege from oneyear to the next. The standard provisions under Processing a Withdrawalalso apply to free withdrawals. See page 25.We will deduct any applicable withholding taxes from the withdrawnamount. The withdrawal amount is a taxable disposition and is reportedas taxable income. The effective date of the withdrawal is the date wereceive your withdrawal order in good order at our head office, or therequested withdrawal date, if later.Any amount that is allocated to a segregated fund is invested at therisk of the contract holder and may increase or decrease in value.Large total value contracts rule for deposits andfund transfersLarge total value contracts are a group of contracts (or a single contract)that have the same annuitant and the total value of the units invested inthe contract or contracts exceeds $2,000,000.26


The large total value contracts rule provides that:You need our prior written approval for deposits above $2,000,000.00.We have the right in accordance with our administrative rules to:• refuse to accept deposits• limit the amount of deposits allocated to a fund• refund deposits previously accepted within 90 daysWe reserve the right to change or modify the large total value contractsrule from time to time.Fundamental ChangesWe may make certain changes under this contract that are considered afundamental change. A fundamental change is defined as:an increase in the management fee of a fund;a change in the fundamental investment objectives of a fund;a decrease in the frequency with which units of a fund are valued; orif applicable, an increase in the maximum insurance fee limit of a fund.(currently not applicable as the cost of providing insurance benefits isincluded in the management fee.)In the case where an imaxxGIF invests in an underlying fund, wealso reserve the right to change such underlying fund. If such a changeconstitutes a fundamental change, you will have the rights described in thesection immediately below.In the event of a fundamental change or a fund closure, we will give you atleast 60 days’ prior written notice (the “Notice Period”) before making thechange. You have the right to: (a) switch to a similar fund before the expiryof the notice period; or (b) if we do not offer a similar fund, withdraw theunits in the funds affected by the fundamental change without incurringsales charges. We must receive your written response at least 5 days priorto the expiry of the notice period.During the notice period, you may not switch to a fund subject to a fundclosure, except that you may switch to a fund subject to other types offundamental changes if you agree to waive the right to surrender withoutsales charges.We will also notify the insurance regulators and the Canadian <strong>Life</strong> andHealth Insurance Association Inc. at the same time we notify you of thechange (unless such notice is not practical in the circumstances, in whichevent we will provide notice as soon as possible and as reasonablypractical), and amend or re-file the Information Folder to reflect the change.The foregoing may be superseded by any regulatory changes governingindividual variable insurance contracts.A similar fund is a fund that:(a) has a comparable investment objective,(b) is in the same fund investment category,(c) has the same or lower management fee and insurance fee, and(d) is valued at the same or greater frequency as the fund subject to thefundamental change.Changing an underlying fund will not constitute a fundamental changeprovided that all of the conditions for a similar fund continue to apply tothe fund immediately following the change.A similar underlying fund is one that:(a) has a comparable fundamental investment objective(b) is in the same investment fund category and(c) has the same or lower management fee.The investment objective of the underlying funds may not be changedunless approved by the unitholders of the underlying mutual fund. Uponsuch approval, you will be provided notice of the change.<strong>Transamerica</strong> CI GIPs – imaxxGIF may invest in one or a multipleunderlying funds. Changes to underlying fund(s) or to the investments ofthe underlying fund(s) or to the target weightings of each investment of theunderlying fund(s) will not normally constitute a fundamental change. If thechange meets the definition of a fundamental change, you will have therights described in the section.Fees and expensesManagement feeEach imaxxGIF pays a management fee to us for the management ofthe fund, which includes the costs for investment management, servicesand facilities to support the funds, and commissions and service feespayable to Advisors. The management fee includes the cost of providingthe insurance coverage for guarantees under the contract. Where theimaxxGIF invests in an underlying fund, the management fee and theMER of the fund includes the corresponding management fee and theMER of the underlying fund(s), and there is no duplication of managementfees. The management fees are calculated and accrued based on themarket value of the imaxxGIF’s assets on each valuation date and arepaid to us monthly. You do not directly pay for the management fees, asthey are paid by each imaxxGIF.These fees will reduce the returns earned by the underlying assets withineach imaxxGIF. Subject to the fundamental changes provision describedabove, we may change the management fee for any imaxxGIF by sendingyou written notice of the change at least 60 days in advance.The management fee may vary depending upon the class of the imaxxGIFthat your units are held in.The management fee for a class is equal to:the value of the imaxxGIF’s assets allocated to that class on that dateless the imaxxGIF’s liabilities allocated to that class,multiplied by the number of days since the last valuation date, andmultiplied by the daily management fee for that class.27


Operating expensesEach class of an imaxxGIF is subject to deduction of all costs and expensesrelating to its operation. These operating expenses accrue daily and mayinclude, among other things: audit, accounting and financial reporting anddisclosure costs; custodial and trustee costs; legal and regulatory costs;bank service fees and interest charges; policyholder communication feesand related administrative costs; and applicable taxes.Allocating expenses among the classesWe allocate the expenses of each imaxxGIF among the classes of unitsof that imaxxGIF. Each class will bear separately any expense that can bespecifically attributed to that class. This way, expenses related solely toone class of units will be allocated only to that class. We allocate commonexpenses, such as audit and custody fees, pro-rata among all units of allclasses of that imaxxGIF. The allocation may be based on the amountof these expenses calculated by the imaxxGIF to have been actuallyincurred by the class or in another manner that we consider appropriateand equitable.Although the expense of an imaxxGIF attributable to a particular classof units will be deducted in calculating the asset value of that class,those expenses will continue to be liabilities of the imaxxGIF as awhole and the assets of the imaxxGIF as a whole could be called uponto satisfy those liabilities. In addition, all deductible expenses of theimaxxGIF, both common expenses and class expenses, will be takeninto account in calculating the income or loss of the imaxxGIF for taxpurposes and, therefore, all expenses will impact the tax position of theimaxxGIF as a whole.The management fee listed in Appendix D for each <strong>Transamerica</strong> CI GIP –imaxxGIF is the total management fee charged by us and the proportionalshare of the management and other fees charged by the managers of theunderlying fund.Management Expense RatioThe management expense ratio (MER) includes the management fee andthe operating expenses paid by each class of an imaxxGIF.The MER is calculated as follows:MER =100 x management fee plus operating expensesaverage net assets of the applicable class of theimaxxGIF during the yearOther investor charges and feesYou may pay one or more of the following fees directly:a sales charge if you invest in the imaxxGIFs under the initial salescharge option. See page 23.a deferred sales charge or other withdrawal fees on withdrawalsfrom the contract related to imaxxGIF units, or when transferringfrom DSC to ISC units. See The deferred sales charge, page 26.a transfer fee for imaxxGIF transfers. See Transfers, page 24.Termination of ContractThis contract will be terminated if you withdraw all of the units tothe contract’s credit. Upon payment of such withdrawal proceeds, ourobligations under this contract will be discharged.This contract will be terminated on payment of the imaxx deathbenefit. Payment of the imaxx death benefit will discharge ourobligations under this contract.If you elect to withdraw the imaxx contract maturity benefit on orafter the contract maturity date, upon payment of the contract maturitybenefit, our obligations under this contract will be discharged and thecontract will be terminated. If the contract maturity benefit is appliedto a single life annuity, except for our obligations to make annuitypayments, the issue of the single life annuity contract will dischargeour obligations under this contract and this contract will be terminated.Subject to any applicable legislative requirements, if the deathguaranteed amount and the imaxx contract maturity benefit are lessthan $500, we reserve the right to terminate the contract upon 30 days’notice and forward to you the market value of the contract, minusany applicable charges, fees and taxes. Payment of this amount willdischarge our obligations under this contract and upon payment of thisamount, this contract will be terminated.Compensation of distributorsThe distributor who solicits the contract or who is then assigned thecontract may receive a servicing commission or trailer fee in connectionwith each deposit to the contract.Servicing commissions or trailer fees are paid by us to approveddistributors based on the market value of your investment in theimaxxGIFs. It pays for the on-going advice and service that you areentitled to receive from the distributor so long as your investmentremains in the particular fund.Distributors may also be compensated through certain sales charges,which are outlined in more detail on pages 23.28


imaxx tm <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> (GIFs)The <strong>Investment</strong> OptionsThe funds available within the imaxxGIF contract are also referredto as <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> (GIFs) or <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong>Portfolios (GIPs). A GIF will invest directly in securities, units of anunderlying mutual fund or other investments as deemed appropriateby us and in accordance with the investment objective and investmentpolicies of each GIF. A GIP will invest in several underlying mutualfunds or other investments as deemed appropriate by us and inaccordance with the investment objective and investment policies ofeach GIP. Collectively, the GIFs and GIPs comprise the funds availablewithin the imaxxGIF contract.The Fund Facts pages provide you with the key features of each fund.At the top of each Fund Facts page you will find the name of the fund,the name of the contract(s) offering the fund, and the “as at” datefor the information included on the page. The Fund Facts pages alsoprovides some “Quick Facts” about the fund, including the date thefund became available within the contract, the total value of the fund,and the Management Expense Ratio (MER) of the fund among otherdetails. In addition to these Quick Facts about the fund, the Fund Factpages answer the following questions about each fund:What does the fund invest in?How has the fund performed?How risky is it?Are there any guarantees?Who is the fund for?How much does it cost?What if I change my mind?The Fund Facts pages may not contain all the information you need.Please read the Annuity Policy and Information Folder.The investment objective and investment policies of each fund withinthe imaxxGIF contract can be found in Appendix A. The investmentpolicies and restrictions may change from time to time.Should you require more information about the funds offered withinthe imaxxGIF contract, please write to us at 500- 5000 Yonge Street,Toronto, Ontario M2N 7J8.For funds that invest in underlying mutual fund(s), the fundamentalinvestment objectives and investment strategies of the underlyingfund(s) are presented within Appendix B. You may also request acopy of the simplified prospectus, annual information form, financialhighlights, and complete holdings related to the underlying fund(s) bywriting to the applicable underlying fund manager at their respectiveaddresses listed at the end of Appendix B.The imaxxGIF Fund Facts should be read in conjunction with theimaxxGIF Information Folder and Annuity Policy. The InformationFolder provides brief and plain disclosure of all the material factsrelating to the imaxxGIF Contract. <strong>Transamerica</strong> <strong>Life</strong> <strong>Canada</strong> isthe sole issuer of the imaxxGIF contract and the guarantor of theguarantee provisions contained therein.Any amount that is allocated to a segregated fund is invested atthe risk of the contract holder(s) and may increase or decreasein value.What is a Segregated Fund?A segregated fund is an investment option available within anIndividual Variable Insurance Contract commonly known as asegregated funds contract.Each fund available within the imaxxGIF contract is a segregatedfund. A segregated fund is a pool of assets purchased with moneycontributed by policyholders with similar goals. Policyholders contributemoney to their segregated funds contracts and it is pooled by a lifeinsurance company and used to purchase assets. The assets of thesegregated fund are owned by the insurance company. These assetsare segregated from the company’s other assets.Since the assets are owned by us, there is no need to divide the fundinto units. However, in order to administer the funds and to record yourcontractual interests, we divide the funds into notional units. You donot own the units in a fund, nor can you direct the investment of theassets of the fund. Segregated funds are regulated under the authorityof provincial and federal insurance regulators.imaxx <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> <strong>Funds</strong>imaxx <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> (GIFs) invest directly in securities,such as bonds, debentures and stocks. Some GIFs use a mutual fund“fund of fund” strategy, where the GIF invests its net assets in unitsof a select underlying fund. In the case where a GIF invests in anunderlying fund, we reserve the right to change the underlying fund. Ifsuch a change constitutes a fundamental change as defined in section21 of the Annuity Policy, you will have the rights described there.Changing an underlying fund to another similar underlying fund will notconstitute a fundamental change provided that immediately followingthe change the total management fee of the imaxxGIF is the same asor lower than the management fee immediately prior to the change.A similar underlying fund is one that has a comparable fundamentalinvestment objective, is in the same investment fund category andhas the same or lower management fees, as the underlying fund.The investment objective of an underlying fund may not be changedunless approved by the unitholders of the underlying fund. Upon suchapproval, you will be provided notice of the change.29


imaxx <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> PortfoliosEach imaxxGIF Portfolio (GIP) allocates its assets among income andequity investments by investing in units of underlying mutual funds of aselected fund company and other investments as deemed appropriateby us. Each GIP has a target income and equity asset mix and offersyou diversification through a professionally designed portfolio ofunderlying funds and investments. The GIPs are continuously monitoredand, at least on a monthly basis, the underlying investments of a GIPare rebalanced if necessary to ensure that the portfolio corresponds toits target asset allocation. However, each GIP may vary to some extentfrom its target asset allocation mix between rebalancings.We may change these targeted mixes and underlying funds at any timeto better achieve the investment objective of each GIP. You will not benotified when the GIPs are rebalanced or when an underlying fund and/or its targeted weight is changed. You will only be notified if the changemeets the definition of a fundamental change. In such an event, thefundamental change rule in section 21 of the Annuity Policy will apply.The investment objective and policies of each underlying fund withinthe imaxxGIF GIPs can be found in Appendix B. Details of howto contact the managers of the underlying funds are also set out inAppendix B.Derivatives and their permissible useDerivatives may be used by the funds within the imaxxGIF contractbut only in a manner consistent with the fund’s respective investmentobjectives. Derivatives may also be used by the underlying funds, buttheir use must be consistent with the underlying fund’s investmentobjective and their use must conform to the relevant policies set out bysecurities regulators.A derivative is a financial contract, usually between two parties.The value of the contract is derived from the market price, value orlevel of an underlying asset, such as a stock, bond, market index,currency, commodity or a basket of securities. The main appeal inusing derivatives is that investors can capitalize on movements in thevalue of an underlying security at a fraction of the cost of buying thesecurity outright. However, a derivative is not a direct investment inthe underlying asset itself. Derivatives include a wide assortment offinancial contracts including futures, forwards, options, and swaps.With regards to the funds available within the imaxxGIF contract,derivatives will not be used to create a portfolio with leverage. Moreprecisely, derivatives may only be used in respect of a fund if sufficientcash or cash-equivalent securities are held in the fund in order that wemay satisfy our obligations under the derivative instrument.We may use derivatives to:Reduce Currency Risk. The fund manager may determine that it isbeneficial to offset (or hedge), where appropriate, the currencyexposure of foreign portfolio positions as protection against ratefluctuations. To achieve this objective, the fund manager may makeuse of exchange or over-the-counter traded, foreign currency options,futures contracts, forward contracts or other derivative instruments.Create Exposure to Specific Securities and Foreign Markets.The fund manager may wish to buy or sell options on specificsecurities rather than purchasing or selling the actual securitiesdirectly. As well, the fund manager may seek to participate in foreignmarkets by purchasing exchange traded stock index options, futurescontracts, as well as foreign currency forward contracts.Enhance Returns and Lock-in the Price of Portfolio<strong>Investment</strong>. The fund manager may wish to enhance returns andlock-in the price of portfolio investments by writing covered calloptions. A call option is one in which one party is granted the right,for a period of time, to buy an asset at a certain price. A call optionis said to be covered when the party selling the call option owns theunderlying asset which will be sold if the call option is exercised.We have no obligation to use such derivatives.While derivatives can be useful for hedging against potential losses,making indirect investments and gaining exposure to financial marketsand other assets, there is no guarantee that the use of derivatives bya fund will be effective. Please refer to the Derivatives Risk section formore information on the risks concerning derivatives.The Risks of Investing in Segregated <strong>Funds</strong>Risk is the chance or possibility of loss. When investing, the element ofrisk can vary substantially. As a general rule, the higher the potentialreturn, the higher the risk you must assume. This is known as the “risk/return trade-off”.The volatility and performance of your investment will depend on thefund’s underlying investments, the investment manager of the fund,and general market conditions. The underlying investments may beunits of mutual funds, pooled funds, stocks, bonds or other selectedinvestments and securities. The value of these underlying investmentswill change from day to day, reflecting changes in interest rates,changes in general economic, political and market conditions, therelease of information about a particular investment, issuer or industrysector, changes in the value of a relevant foreign currency relative tothe Canadian dollar and other factors.It should be understood that no matter what strategies might beadopted by a fund manager to manage the identified risks associatedwith the investments held in each fund, the risks will remain many anduncertain in nature, duration and impact.Leverage involves the use of borrowed money to help pay for aninvestment or the use of certain types of derivative instruments tosimulate a specialized investment. Using leverage magnifies the amountof loss or gain on an investment. The funds do not employ leverage.Below are descriptions of the various principal risks which may beapplicable to the underlying investments of the funds. Please refer toAppendix C for information about principal risks apply to each fundavailable within the imaxxGIF contract.30


Capital Depreciation RiskSome underlying funds aim to distribute a high level of income. Incertain situations, such as periods of declining markets or increases ininterest rates, an underlying fund may make distributions that include areturn of capital. Where the total distributions by an underlying fund ina year exceed the underlying fund’s net income and net realized capitalgains for the year, the net asset value of the underlying fund may bereduced, which could reduce the underlying fund’s ability to generatefuture income.Cash RiskA fund or underlying fund may have times when it increases the levelof cash that it holds. This may be done by the portfolio manager inorder to protect assets or to take advantage of buying opportunities.Cash is also needed to fund redemption requests. To the extent thata fund has a significant cash position, it may be able to avoid marketdeclines, losses or instability. However, a significant cash positionwill also mean that the fund may risk not taking advantage of marketadvances to the extent that it otherwise could have.Commodity RiskThe market value of a fund’s investments will likely be affected byadverse movements in commodity prices. When commodity pricesdecline, this has a negative impact on the earnings of the companieswhose business is based on commodities, such as oil and gold.Concentration RiskA fund may have a high concentration of its investments in a singlecompany. A relatively high concentration in a single company or a smallnumber of investments will have less diversification and this may havean adverse impact on the fund’s returns. Concentration can also lead toincreased volatility and reduced liquidity of the fund.Credit RiskCredit risk is the risk that an issuer of a bond or other fixed incomesecurity won’t be able to pay interest or repay the principal when itis due. Credit risk is generally lowest among issuers that have a highcredit rating from an independent credit rating agency. It is generallyhighest among issuers that have a low credit rating or no credit rating.The prices of securities with a low rating or no rating tend to fluctuatemore than securities with higher interest ratings. They usually offerhigher interest rates, which may help to compensate for the highercredit risk.Depository Receipt RiskBanks or other financial institutions, known as depositories, issuedepository receipts that represent the value of securities issued byforeign companies. These receipts are most often known as ADRs(American Depositary Receipts), GDRs (Global Depositary Receipts),or EDRs (European Depositary Receipts), depending on the locationof the depository. <strong>Funds</strong> invest in depository receipts to obtainindirect ownership of foreign securities without trading on foreignmarkets. There is a risk that the value of the depository receiptsmay be less than the value of the foreign securities. This differencecan result from several factors: fees and expenses related to thedepository receipts; fluctuations in the exchange rate between thecurrency of the depository receipts and the currency of the foreignsecurities; differences in taxes between the depository receipts andthe foreign securities’ jurisdictions; and the impact of the tax treaty,if any, between the depository receipts and the foreign securities’jurisdictions. Also, a fund faces the risks that depository receipts maybe less liquid, that the holders of depository receipts may have fewerlegal rights than if they held the foreign securities directly, and thatthe depository may change the terms of a depository receipt, includingterminating the depository receipt, in such a way that a mutual fund isforced to sell at an inopportune time.Derivative RiskThe most common risks of using derivatives are as follows:There is no guarantee that hedging strategies which may beemployed will be effective.There is no guarantee that a market will exist for some derivatives.This could prevent a fund from making a profit or limiting a loss.Some exchange traded derivatives may lack liquidity and the fundmay not be able to close out its derivative positions. Derivativeinstruments in foreign markets may be less liquid and more riskythan comparable instruments traded in North American markets.Exchange- imposed trading limits could affect the ability of a mutualfund to close out its positions.The price of a derivative may not accurately reflect the value of theunderlying asset.The other party to a derivative contract may not be able to honour itsobligations under the contract.There is no assurance that a fund’s hedging strategies will beeffective. There may be an imperfect historical correlation betweenthe behaviour of the derivative instrument and the underlyinginstrument. Any historical correlation may not continue for the periodduring which the hedge is in place.Using derivatives to hedge against changes in currencies, stocksmarkets or interest rates cannot eliminate fluctuations in the pricesof securities in a fund or prevent losses if the prices of thesesecurities decline.Hedging may also limit the opportunity for gains if the value of thehedged currency or stock market should rise or if the hedged interestrate should fall.The inability to close out other options, futures and forward positionscould prevent a fund from using derivatives to effectively hedge itsportfolio or implement its strategy.31


Emerging Markets Risk<strong>Investment</strong>s in emerging market countries are generally considered topose greater risks than foreign investments in established markets. Ingeneral, securities markets in emerging countries may be smaller thanin more developed countries, making it more difficult to sell securitiesin order to take profits or avoid losses. Companies in these marketsmay have limited product lines, markets or resources, making it difficultto measure the value of the company. In general, emerging marketcountries have more fragile economies due to higher levels of inflation,higher government debt loads, and/or dependence on a relativelynarrow industrial base. Political instability and possible corruption,as well as lower standards of regulation for business practicesincrease the possibility of fraud and other legal problems. The value ofinvestments in these countries may rise and fall substantially.Equity RiskThe price of equity securities – also called stocks or shares – areaffected by stock market conditions and by general economic andfinancial conditions in those countries where the investments arelisted for trading or elsewhere. The price of equity securities ofcertain companies or companies within a particular industry sectormay also fluctuate differently than the stock market due to changesin the outlook for the company or the industry in which it operates.Historically, equity prices have been more volatile than prices forfixed income securities such as bonds. Accordingly, the value of fundswhose assets are weighted towards equities may be more volatile thanthe value of funds whose assets are weighted towards fixed incomesecurities.ETF RiskCertain funds may invest in exchange-traded funds (ETFs) which qualifyas index participation units. ETFs seek to provide returns similar to theperformance of a particular market index or industry sector index. ETFsmay not achieve the same return as their benchmark market or industrysector indices due to differences in the actual weights of securitiesheld in the ETF versus the weights in the relative index and due to theoperating and management expenses of the ETFs.Foreign Currency RiskThe value of securities issued in foreign currencies, or of securities thatpay income in foreign currencies, is affected by changes in the valueof the Canadian dollar relative to those currencies. For example, if theU.S. dollar rises relative to the Canadian dollar, U.S. shares will beworth more in Canadian dollars. On the other hand, if the U.S. dollarfalls, U.S. shares will be worth less in Canadian dollars.Foreign <strong>Investment</strong> RiskThere are some significant reasons to consider investing abroad.The economies of foreign countries may be growing much fasterthan <strong>Canada</strong>’s economy and this can mean that investments in thosecountries may grow more quickly too. Foreign investments alsogive you diversification because all of your money isn’t staying in<strong>Canada</strong> alone. However, foreign investments may involve risks notusually associated with investing in the Canadian market. BesidesForeign Currency Risk, foreign investments also involve the followingadditional risks:The value of foreign securities and, hence the value of funds whoseportfolios include such securities may be influenced by worldeconomic and political factors and foreign market conditions.Many foreign companies and countries do not have the sameaccounting, auditing and financial reporting standards that apply toNorth American companies.They may be less publicly available information about foreigncompanies and governments and the quality of the information maybe less reliable.Some foreign stock markets may be smaller and less regulated thanCanadian and U.S. exchanges. As a result of these and other factors,foreign markets may be more volatile and less liquid than NorthAmerican markets.Trading large orders in foreign countries may cause the price tofluctuate more than it would in North America.A country may impose withholding or other taxes that could reducethe return on investment or foreign currency exchange controls,whether already in existence in a country or newly imposed, thatmay make it difficult to sell an investment.Political and social instability, restrictions on the movement ofcapital and the threat of expropriation or nationalization can affectthe value of investments in less developed countries.Fixed-income securities bought on foreign markets- even somegovernment bonds – are often quite risky as there is the danger thatthe issuer will not pay off the debt or that the price of the securitieswill drop rapidly.The amount of risk also varies a lot from country to country. Securitiesin developed markets like Western Europe, for example, have lowerforeign investment risk because they are generally well regulatedand are relatively stable. Securities of governments and companies inemerging or developing markets of Southeast Asia and Latin America,for example, can have significant foreign investment risk. For moreinformation, please refer to the Emerging Markets Risk section.Income Trust and Limited Partnership RiskIncome trusts generally hold debt or equity securities in, or areentitled to receive royalties from, an underlying active business.Income trusts generally fall into four sectors: business trusts, powerand pipeline trusts, resource-based royalty trusts and real estateinvestment trusts. <strong>Investment</strong>s in income trusts will have varyingdegrees of risk depending upon the sector and the underlyingassets. In general, income trusts face the same risks as describedin the Equity Risk section. They will also be subject to general risksassociated with business cycles, commodity prices, interest rates andother economic factors.32


Returns on income trusts are neither fixed nor guaranteed. Typicallyincome trusts and other securities that are expected to distributeincome are more volatile than fixed-income securities and preferredshares. The value of income trust units may decline significantly if theyare unable to meet their distribution targets. There is also the remoterisk that where claims against an income trust are not satisfied by thattrust, investors in the trust could be held liable for the outstandingobligations. Some, but not all, jurisdictions have enacted legislation toprotect investors from some of this liability.Changes have also been enacted to the Income Tax Act (<strong>Canada</strong>)which affects the way certain income trusts and limited partnershipsare taxed. Generally, the new rules include a tax on certain publiclytradedincome trusts (not including certain real estate investmenttrusts) and limited partnerships with respect to certain distributions orincome allocations made by such entities. The changes will reduce thetax effectiveness of affected income trusts and limited partnerships. Inaddition, the changes have had, and may continue to have, an affecton the trading price of such income trusts and limited partnerships,which may affect the value of a fund or underlying fund that holdssuch investments.Index RiskIndex funds seek to provide returns similar to the performance of theirrespective benchmark indices. However, an index fund’s ability to matchthe return of the index is influenced by the operating and managementexpenses incurred by the fund, as well as by costs incurred when usingparticular passive investment strategies (i.e. market/index proportion,optimization, substitution or any combination thereof) for tracking theperformance of such index. Certain expenses are affected by the sizeof the fund, the composition of each index, the level of trading activityby the fund’s unitholders, and the cash flows experienced by the fundamong other factors. Frequent trading results in additional expenses,which may hamper a fund’s ability to achieve a return similar to that ofits benchmark index.Index funds may invest more than 10% of their assets in securitiesof any one issuer in order to satisfy their investment objectives andmore accurately track an index. As the fund’s assets may be moreexposed to any issuer, any increase or decrease in the value of thatissuer will have a greater impact on a fund’s net asset value and totalreturn. Therefore, an index fund could be more volatile than an activelymanaged fund that is limited to investing no more than 10% of itsassets in securities of any one issuer. An index fund that concentratesits investments could have greater fluctuations in value than funds withbroader diversification. The more an index fund concentrates its assetsin any one issuer, the more volatile and less diversified it may be. As aresult, it may be more difficult to get a preferred price in the event oflarge redemptions by unitholders.There is also the risk that the securities or weighting of the securitiesthat constitute an index that a fund tracks will change. In addition,neither the companies whose securities form part of the index, northe inclusion or removal of a company’s securities from an index, iswithin the control of the index fund. In such a situation, the fund mayexperience a higher portfolio turnover rate and increased costs such astransaction and custodian costs.Finally, where fair value pricing is used to value assets of a fund, itmay account for some of the difference in the tracking of the fund(valued using fair value pricing) to the relevant index (valued using endof-dayprices).Interest Rate RiskThe interest rate on a bond is set when it is issued. When interestrates fall, the price of existing bonds will rise because existing bondspay higher rates than new bonds, and are therefore worth more. Onthe other hand, when interest rates rise, the price of existing bondswill fall, and so will the value of the fund or underlying funds that holdsuch bonds. The value of debt securities that pay a floating or variableinterest are generally less price sensitive to interest rate changes.<strong>Funds</strong> that invest in convertible securities also carry interest rate risk.These securities provide a fixed income stream, so their value variesinversely with interest rates, just like bond prices. However, becausethey can be converted to common shares, convertible securities areless affected by interest rate fluctuations than bonds.Large Investor RiskUnits of mutual funds may be purchased and sold by large investors,such as financial institutions or other mutual funds. These investorsmay purchase or redeem large numbers of units of a fund at onetime. The purchase or redemption of a substantial number of unitsmay require the portfolio manager of the underlying fund to changethe composition of the underlying fund significantly or may force theportfolio manager to buy or sell investments at unfavourable prices,which can also affect the fund’s performance and may increase realizedcapital gains of the fund.Liquidity RiskLiquidity risk is the possibility that a fund will not be able to convertits investments to cash when it needs to. Some securities are illiquidbecause of legal restrictions, the nature of the investment itself,settlement terms, a shortage of buyers or other reasons. Generally,investments with lower liquidity tend to have more dramatic pricechanges.Low Rated or Unrated Securities RiskSome investments offer a better return than others because they carryhigher risk. They may have a credit rating below investment grade orbe unrated. These investments may be hard to value because marketquotations are unavailable, and they may be less liquid than highergradeinvestments. Below investment grade and unrated securitiesinvolve significant risk exposure as there is less certainty regarding theissuer’s ability to pay interest and repay principal in the case of fixedincome securities or to pay dividends and redeem shares in the case ofpreferred shares, in accordance with the issuer’s obligations. Low ratedand unrated securities have the potential for substantial loss as well asgain, as will the funds which invest in such securities. This type of riskis similar to Credit Risk.33


Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities RiskMortgage-backed securities are debt obligations backed by pools ofmortgages on commercial or residential real estate. Asset-backedsecurities are debt obligations that are backed by pools of consumeror business loans. Some asset-backed securities are short-term debtobligations, called asset-backed commercial paper (“ABCP”). If thereare changes in the market perception of issuers of these types ofsecurities, or in the creditworthiness of the parties involved, then thevalue of the securities may be affected. In the case of ABCP, there isan additional risk that there may be a mismatch in timing betweenthe cash flow of the underlying assets backing the security and therepayment obligation of the security upon maturity. In the case ofmortgage-backed securities, there is also the risk that there may be adrop in the interest rates charged on the mortgages, a mortgagor maydefault on its obligations under a mortgage or there may be a drop inthe value of the property secured by the mortgage.Multi-Class or Series RiskAlthough a fund may offer separate classes or series of units, thefund is a single legal entity. Accordingly, the investment performance,expenses or liabilities of one class or series may affect the valueof the units of another class or series. In particular, expensessignificantly attributable to a class or series of units will initially bededucted in calculating the unit price only for the class or series ofunits. However, those expenses will continue to be liabilities of thefund as a whole, if there are insufficient assets of a class or series topay those expenses, the remaining assets of this fund would be usedto pay the excess expenses.Municipal Obligation RiskCertain funds may invest in municipal obligations as part of their cashmanagement techniques. In addition to the usual risks associatedwith investing for income, the value of municipal obligations will beaffected by changes in actual or perceived credit quality. The creditquality of a municipal obligation will be affected by, among otherthings, the financial condition of the issuer or guarantor, the issuer’sfuture borrowing plans and sources of revenue, the economic feasibilityof the revenue bond project or general borrowing purpose, politicalor economic developments in the region or jurisdiction where thesecurity is issued and the liquidity of the security. Because municipalobligations are generally traded over-the-counter, the liquidity of aparticular issue often depends on the willingness of dealers to makea market in the security. The liquidity of some municipal issues can beenhanced by demand features which enable the investor to demandpayment from the issuer of a financial intermediary on short notice.Passive Management RiskSimilar to funds that are managed to track an index, some funds mayalso use passive management for a component of the fund, and to thatextent may be subject to similar risks as funds that are managed totrack an index. Please refer to both Index Risk and ETF Risk.Repurchase and Reverse Repurchase Agreements RiskSometimes funds enter into what are called repurchase transactionsand reverse repurchase transactions. A repurchase transaction is wherea fund sells a security to a party for cash and agrees to buy the samesecurity back from the same party at a higher price on an agreed futuredate. In a reverse repurchase transaction, a fund buys a security at oneprice from a third party and agrees to sell the same security back to thesame party at a higher price on an agreed future date.The risk with these types of transactions is that the other party maydefault under the agreement or go bankrupt. In a reverse repurchasetransaction the fund is left holding the security and may not be ableto sell the security at the same price it paid for it, plus interest, if theother party defaults and the market value for the security has droppedin the meantime. In the case of repurchase transaction, the fund couldincur a loss if the other party defaults and the value of the security soldhas increased more than the value of the cash and collateral held.To reduce risks, the other party to the transaction is required to putup collateral to the fund. The value of the collateral has to be atleast 102% of the market value of the security sold (for a repurchasetransaction) or of the cash paid for the securities purchased (for areverse repurchase transaction). Repurchase and securities lendingtransactions (see Securities Lending Risk) are limited to 50% of afund’s assets, excluding the cash held by the fund for securities sold ina repurchase transaction and collateral or sales proceeds received in asecurities lending transaction.Securities Lending RiskSome funds may engage in securities lending transactions. In asecurities lending transaction, the fund lends portfolio securities heldby the fund to qualified borrowers who have posted collateral for a feeand a set period of time. In lending its securities, the fund is subject tothe risk that the borrower may not fulfill its obligations leaving the fundholding collateral worth less than the securities it has lent, resulting ina loss to the fund.To limit this risk, a fund must hold collateral worth no less than 102%of the market value of the loaned securities and the amount of thecollateral is adjusted daily to ensure the level is maintained. Thecollateral may only consist of cash, qualified securities or securitiesthat can be immediately converted into identical securities to thosethat have been loaned. To further limit risk, a fund cannot lend morethan 50% of the total value of its assets through securities lendingor repurchase transactions (see Repurchase and Reverse RepurchaseAgreements Risk) and a fund’s total exposure to any one borrower insecurities, derivative transactions and securities lending must be lessthan 10% of the total value of the fund’s assets.Short Selling RiskSome funds may engage in a limited amount of short selling. A “shortsale” is where a fund borrows securities from a lender and sells themin the open market. The fund must repurchase the securities at a laterdate in order to return them to the lender. In the interim, the proceeds34


from the short sale are deposited with the lender and the fund paysthe interest to the lender on the borrowed securities. If the value of thesecurities declines between the time of the initial short sale and thetime it repurchases and returns the securities, the fund makes a profitfor the difference (less any interest paid by the fund to the lender). Ifthe price of the borrowed securities rises, however, a loss will result.There are risks associated with short selling, namely that the borrowedsecurities will rise in value or not decline enough to cover the fund’scosts. The fund may also experience difficulties in repurchasing theborrowed securities if a liquid market for the securities does not exist.In addition, the lender from whom the fund has borrowed securitiesmay become bankrupt, causing the borrowing fund to lose thecollateral it deposited with the lender.To limit the risks associated with short sale transactions, a fund willadhere to controls and limits that are intended to offset these risks byshort selling the securities of larger issuers for which a liquid market isexpected to be maintained and by limiting the amount of exposure forshort sales. A fund will also deposit collateral only with lenders thatmeet certain criteria for creditworthiness and only up to certain limits.Although some funds may not engage in short selling directly, they maybe exposed to short selling because the underlying funds in which theyinvest may be engaged in short selling.Small Company RiskSmall companies can be riskier investments than large companies.Small companies are often newer and may not have the track-record,have limited financial resources or not have well-established marketsfor their products. Smaller companies generally have fewer sharestrading in the market than larger companies, so a buy or sell of theirshares will have a greater impact on their share price. The value offunds that buy these investments may rise and fall significantly overshort periods of time.Small Fund RiskA fund with a low net asset value may be at risk of being discontinuedand reallocated to another fund as it does not have sufficient assets tobe effectively managed.Specialization RiskSome funds specialize in investing in a particular industry or regionof the world. Specialization lets the portfolio manager focus on thepotential of that industry or geographic area, but it also means thatthe fund may be more volatile if there is a downturn in the industry orgeographic area since there are relatively few other investments tooffset the downturn. These specialty funds must continue to invest in aparticular industry or geographic area even if it is not growing.Target-Date RiskTarget-date funds, also referred to as “lifecycle” or “age-based”funds, operate under an asset allocation formula that adjusts itsasset allocation to become more conservative over time typically byincreasing its fixed income allocation and reducing its equity allocationas the fund gets closer to the target year.The target year is generally identified in the name of the fund. Whilethese funds are a convenient option for many investors, the assetallocation is not necessarily appropriate for every investor dependingon the risk profile/expectations of the investor.Tax Change RiskThere can be no assurance that changes will not be made to the rulesaffecting the taxation of a fund or a fund’s investments, or in theadministration of such tax rules.Tracking RiskCertain funds may seek to have all or a substantial portion of theirreturns linked to the performance of one or more underlying funds. Thisis achieved by the fund directly purchasing units of these underlyingfund(s). The return of the fund may be lower than that of the underlyingfund(s) because the fund bears its own fees and expenses, and theremay be delays between the time any monies are invested in the fundand those monies are used to purchase units of the underlying fund(s).Underlying Fund RiskSome funds (for this purpose, the “top fund”) invest some or all of theirassets in units or shares of other underlying funds. If the investorsin the top fund redeem large amounts of their units resulting incorresponding redemptions by the top fund in the underlying funds, theunderlying funds may have to liquidate some of their investments atunfavourable prices in order to fund such redemption requests. Suchactivity can reduce the returns of the underlying funds, and therefore,the performance of the top fund as well. This type of risk is similar toLarge Investor Risk.Any amount that is allocated to a segregated fund is invested at therisk of the contract holder and may increase or decrease in value.Additional investment policies of the imaxxGIFsFund earningsThe earnings of each imaxxGIF are currently reinvested in thatimaxxGIF. We have the right to discontinue this practice at any time.Fund investments and eligibility for investment by aregistered planCurrently, units of each of the imaxxGIFs are qualified investments forregistered plans.35


Changes to investment objective, policy, andrestrictionsFor each fund, we will describe the investment objective and theinvestment policy, restrictions and risks applicable to that fund. Theinvestment policy and restrictions may change from time to time.<strong>Transamerica</strong> <strong>Life</strong> <strong>Canada</strong>’s investment policies comply with theCanadian <strong>Life</strong> and Health Insurance Association Inc. (CLHIA) Guidelineson Individual Variable Insurance Contracts Relating to Segregated<strong>Funds</strong>, as amended, and approved by the CLHIA Board of Directors andthe Canadian Council of Insurance Regulators as well as the Autoritédes marches financiers (AMF) Guidelines.We may also change the investment objective of a fund. A change tothe investment objective can be considered a fundamental change.Please see section the Fundamental Changes section.Availability of imaxxGIFsWe have the right to discontinue offering a fund, add, merge or splitfund(s) within the contract, and both a fund discontinuance and mergerare subject to the provisions of the CLHIA Guidelines on IndividualVariable Insurance Contracts and the Autorité des marches financiers(AMF) Guidelines in effect.This transaction may be a taxable event and subject to the fundamentalchange rule. Please see the fundamental change section.We reserve the right to refuse new or additional deposits to ortransfers into an imaxxGIF after sending 60 days written notice toyou. We may also re-open a previously closed imaxxGIF for newand additional deposits and transfers in. During the notice period,the owner shall not deposit or transfer new funds to the imaxxGIFdesignated as no longer available for new deposits or transfers, exceptfor transfers received within 5 days of the notice date.The value of the units cancelled or acquired to effect a fundtransfer or fund discontinuance is not guaranteed but varies inaccordance with fluctuations in the market value of the assetsof the particular fund.36


Other important informationClaims of creditorsUnder provincial insurance laws, this contract may be protected fromyour creditors if the beneficiary is the spouse, parent, child or grandchildof the annuitant (in Quebec, the beneficiary must be the married orcivil union spouse, the ascendant or descendant of the owner), or if thebeneficiary is named irrevocably. This description is of a generalnature only. There are important limitations with respect to thisprotection and this description does not include all possibleconsiderations. This summary is not intended to be, nor shouldit be construed to be, legal advice. You should consult your ownlegal advisor with respect to your particular circumstances.In addition, if your contract is a nominee-name contract with a brokeror dealer, creditor protection may not be available. Again, you shouldconsult with your legal advisor about your particular situation.Tax implicationsIn general, if your contract is issued to you as an RSP and registeredunder the Income Tax Act (<strong>Canada</strong>) or other applicable provincial taxlegislation, then your deposits are tax deductible, up to the limitspermitted under applicable tax laws unless the contract has beenacquired as a result of a transfer from another tax sheltered vehicle inwhich case the transfer may occur on a tax sheltered basis. No tax ispayable on income earned by the imaxxGIFs at the time it is earned.At maturity, however, the retirement income payments are fully taxableas income. The Income Tax Act (<strong>Canada</strong>) currently stipulates thatretirement income must commence no later than December 31 of theyear in which you attain the RSP age.In general, if the contract is issued as a RIF and registered under theIncome Tax Act (<strong>Canada</strong>) or other applicable provincial tax legislation,then no tax is payable on income earned by the imaxxGIFs at the timeit is earned. Retirement income payments and other payments under aRIF are fully taxable.If the contract is issued as a LIRA, RLSP or locked-in RSP, then thetax treatment is essentially the same as that described for an RSP.Similarly, if your contract is issued as a LIF/RLIF/PRIF, then the taxtreatment is essentially the same as that described for a RIF.If the guaranteed amount on the contract maturity date or guaranteedamount on the death benefit date is greater than the market value ofthe contract on the contract maturity date or death benefit date, asthe case may be, we will make up the difference. The difference iscalled “Top-Up Benefit”. The Top-Up Benefit amount that we pay onthe imaxx contract maturity benefit or the imaxx death benefit isconsidered to be part of the market value of the contract. It will betaxable to you, your beneficiary or your Estate unless it is transferredto another registered plan. We recommend that you consult yourtax advisor to consider the tax treatment of Top-Up Benefits in yourindividual circumstances. Based on our current understanding of theIncome Tax Act (<strong>Canada</strong>), we will report the top-up as a capital gain onnon-registered plans.In general, the direct transfer of monies from a contract issued as aRSP, RIF, LIRA, RLSP, locked-in RSP or LIF/PRIF/RLIF to another RSP, RIF,LIRA, RLSP, locked-in RSP or LIF/PRIF/RLIF will be tax sheltered. If thecontract is issued as an RSP, RIF, LIRA, RLSP, locked-in RSP or LIF/PRIF/RLIF, a surrender (withdrawal) of monies from the contract or otherpayment under the contract will be fully taxable.If your contract is a LIRA, locked-in RSP, RLSP, PRIF, RLIF or LIF, thenadditional information must be provided to you by us regarding yourcontract in accordance with the requirements of applicable pensionbenefits legislation. These requirements vary to some extent amongdifferent provinces (and for federally regulated employers) and thereforeyou should review the applicable endorsement for your contract.The Income Tax Act (<strong>Canada</strong>) provides that annuity contracts (includingannuity contracts which offer investments in segregated funds) may bequalified investments for RRIF and RRSP trusts. A contract that is notissued as a RSP, LIRA, RLSP, locked-in RSP, RIF or LIF/PRIF/RLIF may bea qualified investment for a RIF trust or RSP trust. You should consultyour advisor with respect to the status of your contract as a qualifiedinvestment in your circumstances.This section as well as other tax information contained in this folderis a summary only of the principal Canadian federal income taxconsiderations arising under the Income Tax Act (<strong>Canada</strong>) and theregulations thereunder to prospective owners of contracts who areresidents of <strong>Canada</strong> and who hold their policies as capital property andwho deal at arm's length with us. A policy will generally be consideredcapital property to a policyholder unless the policy holder either holdssuch policy in the course of carrying on a business or as an adventurein the nature of trade.The tax summary contained in this section as well as tax informationcontained elsewhere in this folder is based upon the provisions of theIncome Tax Act (<strong>Canada</strong>) and the regulations thereunder currently ineffect, upon all proposed amendments thereto publicly released bythe Department of Finance (<strong>Canada</strong>) prior to the date of printing thisfolder and upon our understanding of the administrative practices andpolicies of the <strong>Canada</strong> Revenue Agency, currently in effect.

The funds are nota separate legal entity. The funds are divided into units of oneor more classes which are attributed to individual contracts onlyfor the purpose of determining benefits under those contracts.Accordingly, a unit is a notional concept only and the owneracquires no direct claim on or property interest in the unitsof the funds. The number of units of a cass in a fund includesfractions. The owner has no right to direct the investment ofassets in any fund.8. Classes8.1. Each <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund may be divided from timeto time into one or more “Classes”. The classes may havedifferent attributes or be applicable in different circumstances.<strong>Transamerica</strong> may at its discretion from time to time add a newclass to a <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund, delete or discontinuea class, or redesignate or otherwise change the attributesor circumstances applicable to a class of a <strong>Guaranteed</strong><strong>Investment</strong> Fund. Any deletion, discontinuance or change indesignation or attributes of a class will not affect the attributesor circumstances applicable to pre-existing Units attributableto a class and which were allocated to the owner’s contract.All units attributable to this policy must be of the same class,which class shall correspond to the guarantee option that hasbeen selected by the owner. The owner must select one andonly one guarantee option under this contract.8.2. Currently, there are three classes of each <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong>Fund that are made available under this rider. Class A consists ofUnits with the “75/75 Guarantee Option” (“Class A Units”);Class B consists of Units with the “75/100 Guarantee Option”(“Class B Units”); Class C consists of Units with the “100/100Guarantee Option” (“Class C Units”), in each case as provided.9. Value of <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> <strong>Funds</strong>and Units9.1. <strong>Transamerica</strong> determines the market value of the assets ofeach <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund on each Valuation Date.The market value of the assets of a <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong>Fund is the value of the assets of the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong>Fund determined by <strong>Transamerica</strong> in accordance with currentCanadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).Recognized investment dealers will provide the market valuesof unlisted stocks, bonds, debentures and other over-thecounterinstruments. Short term notes will be valued at cost.The valuation of bonds, debentures and short term notes willinclude accrued interest. The number of Units of any Class ofany <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund includes fractions. When a<strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund is first established, <strong>Transamerica</strong>will generally value the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund eachBusiness Day. <strong>Transamerica</strong> may cause the imaxxGIFs tobe valued on a less frequent basis, in which case you will benotified of the change upon 60 days’ notice. A reduction infrequency of valuation constitutes a fundamental change andaccordingly, is subject to the terms of the Individual VariableInsurance Contracts Guidelines.46

The “Aggregate Class Value” of a Class of a <strong>Guaranteed</strong><strong>Investment</strong> Fund on any Valuation Date means the aggregatemarket value of the portion of the assets of such <strong>Guaranteed</strong><strong>Investment</strong> Fund that are attributed to that Class of the<strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund, after at such time deducting allof the expenses and liabilities attributable to the Class of the<strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund (including, without limitation,management fees and other fund expenses) at such time.9.3. The “Unit Value” of a Unit of a particular Class of a<strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund on a Valuation Date means theamount obtained when the Aggregate Class Value of such Classof the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund on such date is divided bythe number of Units in the Class on the previous Valuation Date.The Unit Value of a Class of a <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fundremains in effect until the next Valuation Date.9.4. For each <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund, the net income from the<strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund assets will be reinvested withinthat <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund, and will be reflected in thevalue of the Units in that <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund.9.5. <strong>Transamerica</strong> reserves the right to increase the number of Unitsof a <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund by splitting each existing Unitinto two or more Units, thus reducing the value of each Unitproportionally. Conversely, the number of existing Units maybe reduced by combining two or more of the existing Units. Inno event will the Total Fund Value of this policy be affected bysuch increase or decrease in the number of Units allocated tothis policy.10. guaranteed <strong>Investment</strong> Fund Charges and Fees10.1. Each imaxxGIF pays a management fee to us for themanagement of the fund, which includes the costs forinvestment management, services and facilities to support thefunds, and commissions and service fees payable to Advisors.The management fee includes the cost of providing theinsurance coverage for guarantees under the Contract. Wherethe imaxxGIF invests in an underlying fund, the managementfee and the MER of the fund includes the corresponding amountof the underlying fund(s), and there is no duplication of feesfor the same service, The management fees are calculated andaccrued based on the market value of the imaxxGIF’s assetson each Valuation Date and are paid to us monthly.

Date, then the value of the Units cancelled in a <strong>Guaranteed</strong><strong>Investment</strong> Fund will be based on the Unit Value of theapplicable Class of the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund in effecton the next Valuation Date (such date being the effective dateof that withdrawal). If the request to withdraw specifies awithdrawal date that would be later than the one otherwiseapplicable under this subsection, then the value of the Unitscancelled in a <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund to effect such awithdrawal will be based on the Unit Value of the applicableClass of that <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund in effect on therequested withdrawal date if it is a Valuation Date, otherwisethe Unit Value of the applicable Class of that <strong>Guaranteed</strong><strong>Investment</strong> Fund on the next Valuation Date.Any amount that is allocated to a segregated fund isinvested at the risk of the contract holder and mayincrease or decrease in value.12.4. Subject to subsection 12.9, <strong>Transamerica</strong> has the right to delaythe effective date of any Units withdrawn from any <strong>Guaranteed</strong><strong>Investment</strong> Fund for up to seven days. If a withdrawal requestis received in good order at or prior to a cut off time establishedfrom time to time by <strong>Transamerica</strong> (currently 3:00 p.m. Torontotime) on a Valuation Date, then the value of Units to bewithdrawn will be based on the applicable Unit Value in effecton such date. Otherwise, the value will be based on the closingUnit Value of the next Valuation Date. Similarly, if <strong>Transamerica</strong>receives a request to withdraw Units on a day which is not aValuation Date, then the withdrawal will be deemed to havebeen received on the next Valuation Date.12.5. Withdrawals of DSC Units from a particular <strong>Guaranteed</strong><strong>Investment</strong> Fund processed during the applicable withdrawalfee period will be subject to a fee for early withdrawal. Awithdrawal fee period commences in respect of each Depositon the date that such Deposit is allocated by <strong>Transamerica</strong>to any of the segregated funds which <strong>Transamerica</strong> madeavailable at any time and from time to time for investmentof Deposits under the Contract. <strong>Transamerica</strong> will follow themethod of first-in, first-out. This means that the first Depositallocated to the applicable segregated fund will be consideredto be withdrawn first, then the second such Deposit and so on.The fee for early withdrawal will be calculated as a percentageof the value of the DSC Units surrendered, based on the UnitValues on the effective date of Deposit and based on the timein months elapsed since the effective date of Deposit, as setforth in the following table of percentages:Time elapsedsince Deposit toimaxx <strong>Guaranteed</strong><strong>Investment</strong> Fund0-12 months 6.0%13-24 months 5.0%25-36 months 4.0%37-48 months 3.0%49-60 months 2.0%61-72 months 1.0%73 months andsubsequent0.0%Fee for early withdrawal as percentof the value of Units withdrawnbased on the Unit Values on theeffective date of Deposit12.6. <strong>Transamerica</strong> reserves the right, without prior notice, to cancel,modify or change the Deferred Sales Charge Option and anynew Deposits made after such change will be subject to thethen effective Deferred Sales Charge schedule.12.7. Subject to any applicable legislative or regulatory requirements,if, at any time, the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount is less than $500, wehave the right to cancel all of the Units upon 30 days’ notice.When, in our discretion, we exercise this right, the TotalFund Value, less any withdrawal charges, any other unpaidadministrative fees and charges owing by you to us and anytaxes which may be required by law to be withheld, will be paidto you.12.8. Withdrawals, including but not limited to the 10% freewithdrawal will proportionally reduce the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amountof your Contract.12.9. In the event of exceptional or unusual circumstances,<strong>Transamerica</strong> reserves the right to delay payment of anywithdrawal amount for a reasonable amount of time after theeffective date of your withdrawal request. If <strong>Transamerica</strong>delays payment for more than 30 days, <strong>Transamerica</strong> will payinterest from the effective date of the withdrawal at a rate thendetermined by <strong>Transamerica</strong>.13. 10% free withdrawal privilege13.1. Subject to <strong>Transamerica</strong>’s then current administrative rules,charges and fees, the Owner may, in each calendar year,withdraw up to 10% of the number of DSC Units determined insubsection 13.2 without paying DSC. Such withdrawal requestmust be in writing and must be effected before the earlier ofthe Contract Maturity Date and the death of the Annuitant.The Owner’s withdrawal request must specify the particular<strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund or <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> inrespect of which Units are to be surrendered under this optionand the withdrawal dates requested. Any taxes which maybe required by law to be withheld will be deducted from suchpayments and forwarded to the taxing authority.49


Any unused portion of the privilege may not be carried forwardfrom one year to the next. We reserve the right to discontinueor change this right at any time.13.2. The aggregate number of DSC Units that may be withdrawn inany one calendar year is the sum of:(a) 10% of the number of DSC Units allocated to the<strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund at the end of the previouscalendar year,(b) for DSC Units allocated to the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fundin the then current calendar year, 10% of the DSC Units heldmultiplied by the number of days the new DSC Units wereheld in the current year (not including the day of allocation,and including the day of withdrawal) divided by 365 days(366 days in leap years), less(c) any DSC Units previously withdrawn in the current yearunder this privilege.13.3. The value of the Units withdrawn will be based on the UnitValue of the applicable Class of the particular <strong>Guaranteed</strong><strong>Investment</strong> Fund in effect on the Valuation Date coinciding with,or next following (a) the date of receipt by <strong>Transamerica</strong> of thewritten request, or (b) the date the Owner specifies in Owner’swritten request, if later than (a).Any amount that is allocated to a segregated fund isinvested at the risk of the contract holder and mayincrease or decrease in value.13.4. Such periodic withdrawals will follow the method of “firstin, first out”. This means that the first Deposit in a particular<strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> Fund will be surrendered first, then thesecond such Deposit and so on.13.5.

Deposit Maturity Benefit17.1. A “Deposit Maturity Date” is the date on which (a) an imaxxDeposit Maturity Benefit is applicable; and (b) the guaranteedamount for purposes of calculating the imaxx death benefit(the “Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount”) is calculated. Each deposityear of the Contract is deemed to have a Deposit Maturity Datewhich will occur on the day before the tenth anniversary of thebeginning of such deposit year, unless the Deposit Maturity Datewould occur within 10 years of the Contract Maturity Date, inwhich case the Deposit Maturity Date will occur on the ContractMaturity Date. All Deposits made during a specific deposit yearwill be deemed to have the same Deposit Maturity Date.The first Deposit Maturity Date is the day before the tenthanniversary of the effective date of the first Deposit to the<strong>Guaranteed</strong> <strong>Investment</strong> <strong>Funds</strong>.17.2. We reserve the right not to renew your Deposit on the DepositMaturity Date. In this case, subject to <strong>Transamerica</strong>’s thencurrent administration rules and any applicable regulatoryrequirements, we will pay the imaxx Deposit Maturity Benefitto you less any applicable charges and taxes.17.3. The “imaxx Deposit Maturity Benefit” in respect of aDeposit Year Account is equal to:(a) in the case of Class A Units and Class B Units, the greater of:(i) the 75% <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount of the Deposit Year Accountas at the imaxx Deposit Maturity Date; and(ii) the total Unit Value of all Units in the Deposit YearAccount at such time.(b) in the case of the Class C Units, the greater of(i) the 100% <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount of the Deposit Year Accountas at the imaxx Deposit Maturity Date, and(ii) the total Unit Value of all Units in the Deposit YearAccount at such time.If the 75% or the 100% guaranteed amount of the deposit yearaccount as at the deposit maturity date is greater than the totalunit value of all units in the deposit year account at such time,<strong>Transamerica</strong> will pay the difference. The difference is calledthe “top-up benefit”.Please consider that when the market value of the Unitswithdrawn is lower than the original purchase price ofthe Units withdrawn, the proportional reduction due tothe withdrawal will reduce the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount bymore than the actual amount of the withdrawal.17.4. On any imaxx Deposit Maturity Date, the Owner mayeither request a cash payment of or subject to subsection17.2, reinvest the imaxx Deposit Maturity Benefit. Unless<strong>Transamerica</strong> has received the Owner’s written directionrequesting a cash withdrawal of the imaxx Deposit MaturityBenefit prior to the Deposit Maturity Date, subject to subsection17.2, the imaxx Deposit Maturity Benefit will be automaticallyreinvested. If the cash payment is requested, deductions will bemade for applicable taxes and charges, if any. The payment ofany Deposit Maturity Benefit to you in cash will proportionallyreduce your <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount.17.5. In reinvesting the Deposit Maturity Benefit, <strong>Transamerica</strong> willon the first Valuation Date immediately following the DepositMaturity Date;(a) withdraw all the Units of the Deposit Year Account that hasreached the deposit maturity date (the “Matured Deposit YearAccount”) and close the Matured Deposit Year Account; and(b) deposit the imaxx Deposit Maturity Benefit in the DepositYear Account in accordance with section 17.6.52


17.6. (a) <strong>Transamerica</strong> will deposit the top-up benefit, if any, intoa Money Market GIF – imaxxGIF (in the same guaranteeoption as the GIF for which a top-up is being paid), opened inthe Owner’s name. If the <strong>Transamerica</strong> Money Market GIF –imaxxGIF is not available at that time, <strong>Transamerica</strong> will thendeposit the top-up benefit to another imaxxGIF of its choice.(b) The deposit maturity benefit, excluding the top-up benefit,will be reinvested into the same GIF unit allocationsapplicable to the Maturing Deposit Year Account.(c) No DSC or ISC will apply to reinvested amounts ortop-up benefits.17.7. Any amount reinvested will constitute a first Deposit forpurposes of calculating the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount for theapplicable Deposit Year. The maturing deposit year account fromwhich the reinvested amount originates will subsequently expire.17.8. Any units purchased through the reinvestment of the DepositMaturity Benefit will not be subject to DSC charges.17.9. Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount at Deposit Maturity DateOn a Deposit Maturity Date the policy is in force, <strong>Transamerica</strong>will calculate the Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount as follows:<strong>Transamerica</strong> will determine the Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amounton the basis of the Deposit Maturity Benefit as determined insection 15. Therefore, on each Deposit Maturity Date that thecontract is in force, the Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount is:(a) For Class A Units, 75% of the deposit maturity benefit ineffect on such Deposit Maturity Date; and(b) For Class B Units and Class C Units 100% of the depositmaturity benefit on such Deposit Maturity Date.Any amount that is allocated to a segregated fund isinvested at the risk of the contract holder and mayincrease or decrease in value.18. imaxx Death Benefit18.1. If the Annuitant dies prior to the Contract Maturity Date, then<strong>Transamerica</strong> will pay an imaxx death benefit to the personentitled thereto following receipt by <strong>Transamerica</strong> of proofsatisfactory to it of the Annuitant’s death and the claimant’sright to the proceeds. Where a Successor Annuitant has beendesignated in the Contract and is alive on the death of theAnnuitant, the Death Benefit is payable on the death of the lastto die of the Annuitant or Successor Annuitant.18.2. The “imaxx Death Benefit” payable by <strong>Transamerica</strong> underthis rider is equal to the aggregate of all amounts, each ofwhich is determined in respect of a Deposit Year Account, andeach of which is equal to:(a) In the case of Class A Units, the greater of:(i) the 75% <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount of the Deposit Year Accountas at the Death Benefit Date, and(ii) the total Unit Value of all Units in the Deposit YearAccount at such time,(b) In the case of Class B Units or Class C Units, the greater of:(i) the 100% <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount of the Deposit Year Accountas at the imaxx Death Benefit Date, and(ii) the total Unit Value of all Units in the Deposit YearAccount at such time, adjusted for any payments whichmay have been made by <strong>Transamerica</strong> between the dateof death of the Annuitant and the date <strong>Transamerica</strong>received proof satisfactory to it of such death.Please consider that when the market value of the Unitswithdrawn is lower than the original purchase price ofthe Units withdrawn, the proportional reduction due tothe withdrawal will reduce the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount bymore than the actual amount of the withdrawal.18.3. <strong>Transamerica</strong> will also pay to the person entitled thereto,interest on the imaxx Death Benefit from the imaxx DeathBenefit Date to the date of payment. However, in no event willinterest be paid for a period in excess of one year. The rate ofinterest credited will be in accordance with procedures andrates set periodically for this purpose by <strong>Transamerica</strong>.18.4. In the event that the annuitant dies within 12 months of theeffective date of the Contract <strong>Transamerica</strong> will levy theapplicable deferred sale charge on payment of death benefitsrelating to the original deposit value of DSC units investedunder the 75/100 or 100/100 Guarantee Option. The deferredsale charge is subject to the deferred sales charge scheduleand is charged as a percentage of the original deposit value ofthe DSC Units as of the death benefit date.18.5. For greater certainty, and subject to a proportional reductionfor any withdrawals or surrenders made from the contract, inno event will the imaxx death benefit be less than 75% of theamounts deposited by the contract owner to the contract. Topup benefits are not included in such calculations.When calculating the death benefit for Deposits made underthe initial sales charge option, we will not deduct the initialsales charge from the calculation of the guaranteed amount.Therefore, the guaranteed amount will not be less than 75% ofthe deposit before deducting the applicable initial sales chargeless proportional market value reductions for withdrawals.18.6. In some circumstances, there may be delays in obtainingsatisfactory proof of death and we may be notified of the deathof the Annuitant before receipt of proof of death (for example,a death certificate). In such event, on the date we are notifiedof the death of the last surviving Annuitant, we will switch allunits in the funds held in the Contract into the Money MarketFund or to another fund we designate if the Money Market Fundis not available. This date is called the “Notice Date”.53


Notification of death has to be in writing and meet therequirements set out in our Administrative Rules.As of the Notice Date, no further transactions can be made. Forexample, scheduled withdrawals, including payments of RRIFMinimum Amounts will be stopped.Subsequently, on the Valuation Date we receive proof of death,the Death Benefit will be calculated.19. Reset of Death <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount19.1. Subject to the following reset rules in this section 19,<strong>Transamerica</strong> will automatically reset the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amountfor purposes of calculating the imaxx death benefit (the “Death<strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount”) on each anniversary of the contract date(the “reset date”).19.2. For the 75/75 guarantee option, the new guaranteed amountfor the imaxx death benefit on a reset date will be equal tothe aggregate of all amounts, each of which is determined inrespect of a Deposit Year Account, and each of which is thegreater of:(i) the 75% guaranteed amount as at such reset date; and(ii) 75% of the total unit value of all Units in the Deposit YearAccount as at such reset date.19.3. For the 75/100 and 100/100 guarantee options, the newguaranteed amount for the imaxx death benefit on a reset datewill be equal to the aggregate of all amounts, each of which isdetermined in respect of a Deposit Year Account, and each ofwhich is the greater of:(i) the 100% guaranteed amount as at such reset date; and(ii) the total unit value of all Units in the deposit year accountas at such reset date.19.4. The reset of the imaxx death benefit will operate as follows:(a) The reset of the imaxx death benefit will take placeautomatically if on the Reset Date:the annuitant has not reached his or her 81 st birthday onthe Contract Anniversary Date;the annuitant is alive; andthe contract is in force.(b) The reset of the imaxx death benefit will not changethe Deposit Maturity Date or the Contract Maturity Date,however, when a Deposit Year Account matures and is paidout or reinvested into a new Deposit Year Account, theDeath <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount associated with such maturingDeposit Year Account will expire.19.5. <strong>Transamerica</strong> reserves the right to discontinue, modify orsuspend reset rights at any time by giving you prior writtennotice of at least 60 days.20. imaxx Contract Maturity Benefit20.1. The “imaxx Contract Maturity Benefit” payable by<strong>Transamerica</strong> under this rider is equal to the aggregate of allamounts, each of which is determined in respect of a DepositYear Account, and each of which is equal to;(a) In the case of Class A Units and Class B Units, the greaterof:(i) the 75% <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount of the Deposit Year Accountas at the Contract Maturity Date and(ii) the total Unit Value of all Units in the Deposit YearAccount at such time,(b) In the case of Class C Units, the greater of:(i) the 100% <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount of the Deposit YearAccount as at the Contract Maturity Date, and(ii) the total Unit Value of all Units in the Deposit YearAccount at such time.Please consider that when the market value of the Unitswithdrawn is lower than the original purchase price ofthe Units withdrawn, the proportional reduction due tothe withdrawal will reduce the <strong>Guaranteed</strong> Amount bymore than the actual amount of the withdrawal.20.2. For greater certainty, and subject to a proportional reductionfor any withdrawals or surrenders made from the contract, inno event will the imaxx contract maturity benefit be less than75% of the amounts deposited by the contract owner to thecontract. Top up benefits are not included in such calculations.When calculating the Contract Maturity Benefit for Depositsmade under the initial sales charge option, we will not deductthe initial sales charge from the calculation of the guaranteedamount. Therefore, the guaranteed amount will not be lessthan 75% of the deposit before deducting the applicableinitial sales charge less proportional market value reductionsfor withdrawals.20.3. On the Contract Maturity Date, provided that this policy is stillin force and the Annuitant is then still living and <strong>Transamerica</strong>is not notified of the Owner’s maturity option, the ContractMaturity Benefit will be applied by <strong>Transamerica</strong> to providean annuity on the life of the Owner guaranteed for ten yearsin accordance with applicable legislation and <strong>Transamerica</strong>’sadministrative rules. Payment of this annuity (or lump sum asdescribed in section 20.4) will discharge <strong>Transamerica</strong> fromall of its obligations and liabilities under this policy and allrelated documents.20.4. <strong>Transamerica</strong> will have the right to pay the imaxx ContractMaturity Benefit in one lump sum to the appropriate personon the Contract Maturity Date in lieu of the annuity paymentsin the event that the monthly annuity payments would be lessthan $50.00 per month.54


Residents of Quebec20.5. <strong>Transamerica</strong> will calculate the annuity payable to the Ownerbased on its then current projected annuity factors applicable tothe type and terms of the annuity chosen. Notwithstanding theforegoing, the annual annuity payment for each $1,000 beingannuitized with a maximum guarantee period of ten years orless shall not be lower than the amount set out in Table 1 forthe applicable age on which the annuity is based. The applicableage on which the annuity is based is the age of the owner in thecase of a single life annuity or in the younger age of the ownerand a person the owner may designate in the case of a joint lifeannuity. Using Table 1 the minimum annual annuity payment iscalculated according to the following formula:Annuitized Amount x Amount in Table 1100020.6. <strong>Transamerica</strong> will have the right to pay the annuity on an annualbasis if the periodic payments elected to be received morefrequently than annually would be less than $50 per payment.20.7. Payment of the annuity will discharge <strong>Transamerica</strong> of itsobligations under the Contract in full.Table 1 – Annual Annuity Payment per $1,000Age of AnnuitantAnnuity Payment50 $15.3955 $16.6760 $18.1965 $20.0170 $22.2375 $25.0180 $28.5885 $33.3490 $40.0195 $50.01100 $66.67Note: Age refers to the age of the youngest life covered by the annuity. Ages100 and older are assigned the same payment.21. fundamental ChangesWe may make certain changes under this contract that areconsidered a fundamental change. A fundamental change isdefined as:an increase in the management fee of a fund;a change in the fundamental investment objectives of a fund;a decrease in the frequency with which units of a fundare valued;if applicable, an increase in the maximum insurance fee limitwhich may be charged against the assets of an imaxxGIF(currently not applicable as the cost for providing insurancebenefits is included in the management fee).In the case where an imaxxGIF invests in an underlying fund,we also reserve the right to change such underlying fund.
