TRANSAMERICA ASSET ALLOCATION VARIABLE FUNDS
AN EXPLANATION OF FUND EXPENSES
(Unaudited)
 
Transamerica Asset Allocation Variable Funds (formerly, Diversified Investors Strategic Variable Funds) (individually, a “Subaccount” and collectively, the “Subaccounts”) is a separate investment account established by Transamerica Financial Life Insurance Company, Inc. (“TFLIC”), and is used as an investment vehicle under certain tax-deferred annuity contracts issued by TFLIC. Each Subaccount invests in underlying subaccounts of Transamerica Partners Variable Funds (formerly, Diversified Investors Variable Funds) (“TPVF”), a unit investment trust. As a contractholder of a Subaccount, you will bear the ongoing costs of managing the corresponding subaccount in which your Subaccount invests. You will also bear the cost of operating the Subaccount.
 
The first column in the table shown below assumes an investment of $1,000 on July 1, 2008. The second column will show your ending balance (per $1,000) on December 31, 2008. The third column will show how much of your investment (per $1,000) went to the ongoing costs of your Subaccount. The figures in both of these columns are based on the actual total return and the actual expenses incurred for the period July 1, 2008-December 31, 2008. In order to approximate how much you paid in expenses during the six months, divide your balance by 1,000, and multiply the result by the dollar amount shown under the heading “Expenses Paid During the Period July 1, 2008-December 31, 2008”.
 
The fourth and fifth columns will also show your ending balance (per $1,000) on December 31, 2008 and how much of your investment (per $1,000) went to the ongoing costs of your Subaccount, but assumes a total annual return rate of 5% before expenses. Since the 5% is hypothetical, the ending account values and the expenses paid for the period July 1, 2008-December 31, 2008 will not be the actual values per $1,000 of your investment. This information is presented so you may compare the cost of investing in a Transamerica Asset Allocation Variable Fund against the cost of investing in other funds. Other funds should provide this information based on a hypothetical annual return of 5% before expenses in their most recent report in order for you to make a fair comparison.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.  Organization
 
Transamerica Asset Allocation Variable Funds (formerly, Diversified Investors Strategic Variable Funds) (the “Separate Account”), a separate account of Transamerica Financial Life Insurance Company (“TFLIC”), is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a management investment company. The Separate Account is composed of three different subaccounts that are, in effect, separate investment funds: Transamerica Asset Allocation — Short Horizon Subaccount (formerly, Short Horizon Strategic Variable Fund) (“Short Horizon”), Transamerica Asset Allocation — Intermediate Horizon Subaccount (formerly, Intermediate Horizon Strategic Variable Fund) (“Intermediate Horizon”), and Transamerica Asset Allocation — Intermediate/Long Horizon Subaccount (formerly, Intermediate Long Horizon Strategic Variable Fund) (“Intermediate/Long Horizon”) (individually, a “Subaccount” and collectively, the “Subaccounts”). The Separate Account established and designated each of the Subaccounts as separate subaccounts on April 15, 1996 and commenced operations on January 2, 1997. The effective date of the name changes for the Separate Account and the Subaccounts was May 1, 2008. Each Subaccount seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing all of its investable assets among certain Transamerica Partners Variable Funds (formerly, Diversified Investors Variable Funds) (“TPVF”). TPVF is a separate investment account offering thirteen subaccounts, each with a different investment objective. Certain TPVF subaccounts seek to achieve their investment objective by investing all of their investable assets in the Transamerica Partners Portfolios (formerly, Diversified Investors Portfolios) (“Portfolios”). TPVF operates as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act and commenced operations on August 18, 1994. The financial statements of the Portfolios accompany this report.
 
2.  Significant Accounting Policies
 
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Separate Account in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
     A.  Investment Valuation:
 
The value of each Subaccount’s investment in a corresponding subaccount of TPVF is valued at the unit value per share determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (typically, 4:00 P.M. Eastern time) on the valuation date.
 
The Subaccounts adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Standard No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”) on January 1, 2008. FAS 157 is designed to unify guidance for the measurement of fair value of all types of assets, including financial instruments, and certain liabilities, throughout a number of accounting standards. FAS 157 also establishes a hierarchy for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principals and expands financial statement disclosures about fair value measurements that are relevant to mutual funds.
 
Various inputs are used in determining the value of each Subaccount’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
 
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
 
Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
 
Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs (including the Subaccount’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.

2.  Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
The following is a summary of fair valuations according to the inputs used to value the Subaccounts’ net assets as of December 31, 2008.

* Other financial instruments, if any, are derivative instruments not reflected in the Portfolio of Investments, such as futures, forwards and swap contracts, which are valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the investment.
 
     B.  Operating Expenses:
 
The Separate Account accounts separately for the assets, liabilities and operations of each Subaccount. Each Subaccount will indirectly bear its share of fees and expenses incurred by TPVF. These expenses are not reflected in the expenses in the Statement of Operations and are not included in the ratios to average net assets shown in the financial highlights.
 
     C.  Federal Income Taxes:
 
The operations of the Separate Account form a part of, and are taxed with, the operations of TFLIC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of AEGON USA, LLC (“AEGON USA”). AEGON USA is a financial services holding company whose primary emphasis is on life and health insurance, and annuity and investment products. AEGON USA is owned by AEGON US Holding Corporation, which is owned by Transamerica Corporation (DE). Transamerica Corporation (DE) is owned by The AEGON Trust, which is owned by AEGON International B.V., which is owned by AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation, and a publicly traded international group. TFLIC does not expect, based upon current tax law, to incur any income tax upon the earnings or realized capital gains attributable to the Separate Account. Based upon this expectation, no charges are currently being deducted from the Separate Account for federal income tax purposes.
 
     D.  Other:
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
3.  Fees and Transactions with Affiliates
 
The Separate Account has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with Transamerica Asset Management, Inc. (the “Advisor” or “TAM”). TAM is directly owned by Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (77%) (“Western Reserve”) and AUSA Holding Company (23%) (“AUSA”), both of which are indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of AEGON NV. AUSA is wholly-owned by AEGON USA. The Advisor provides general investment advice to each Subaccount. For providing these services and facilities and for bearing the related expenses, the Advisor receives a monthly fee from each Subaccount at an annual rate equal to 0.20% of the average daily net assets of each Subaccount.
 
In addition, TFLIC deducts a mortality and expense risk charge at an annual rate equivalent to 1.10% of the average daily net assets from TPVF. TFLIC reserves the right to charge maximum fees of 1.25% upon notice.

TRANSAMERICA ASSET ALLOCATION VARIABLE FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
 
3.  Fees and Transactions with Affiliates (continued)
 
TFLIC bears sales distribution expenses and any other expenses in excess of the mortality and expense risk charge. TFLIC reserves the right to deduct an annual contract charge from a participant’s account to reimburse TFLIC for administrative expenses relating to the maintenance of the group variable annuity contracts. TFLIC has no present intention to impose such a charge but may do so in the future. Any such annual charge will not exceed $50.
 
Certain managing board members and officers of the Separate Account are also directors, officers or employees of the Advisor or its affiliates. None of the non-independent managing board members so affiliated receive compensation for services as managing board members of the Separate Account. Similarly, none of the Separate Account’s officers receive compensation from the Subaccounts. The independent board members are also trustees of the Portfolios for which they receive fees.
 
Each eligible independent board member may elect participation in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such board members may defer payment of all or a portion of their total fees earned as a Separate Account board member. Each board member who is a participant in the Plan may elect that the earnings, gains or losses credited to his/her deferred fee amounts be determined based on a deemed investment in investment options in Transamerica Partners Institutional Funds Group, Transamerica Institutional Asset Allocation Funds, Class A shares of any series of Transamerica Funds and/or funds of Transamerica Investors, Inc.
 
4.  Purchases and Sales of Investments
 
The aggregate cost of investments purchased and proceeds from sales for the year ended December 31, 2008 were as follows:
 
                 
    Cost of
  Proceeds
    Purchases   from Sales
 
Short Horizon
  $ 13,504,223     $ 14,020,725  
Intermediate Horizon
    31,355,004       33,892,238  
Intermediate/Long Horizon
    46,422,124       49,077,538  
 
5.  Concentrations and Indemnifications
 
From time to time, the Subaccounts may have a concentration of several contractholders holding a significant percentage of units outstanding. Investment activities of these contractholders could have a material impact on the Subaccounts.
 
In the normal course of business, the Subaccounts enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Subaccounts’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Subaccounts that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Subaccounts expect the risk of loss to be remote.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Trustees and the Contractholders of Transamerica Asset
Allocation Variable Funds:
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Short Horizon Subaccount, Intermediate Horizon Subaccount and Intermediate/Long Horizon Subaccount; (constituting the Transamerica Asset Allocation Variable Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at December 31, 2008, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2008 by correspondence with the transfer agent, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

TRANSAMERICA PARTNERS PORTFOLIOS
MANAGEMENT REVIEW (Continued)

December 31, 2008

Transamerica Partners High Quality Bond Portfolio
 
Sub-advisor:
Merganser Capital Management, LP
 
Market Overview:
 
The year ended 2008 will be remembered as one of the most difficult in the history of the U.S. bond market. The problems in the housing and sub-prime mortgage markets quickly spread throughout the economy, causing not only a full blown credit crisis but a crisis in investor confidence resulting in a sharp reduction in credit availability and a rapid deceleration in economic growth. In response to rapidly weakening economic conditions, the Federal Reserve Board moved aggressively by reducing the Federal Funds target rate by 400 basis points to 0%-0.25%.
 
The entire financial sector came under more serious stress in early September, as the government placed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac into conservatorship, Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy protection and Merrill Lynch was forced by market uncertainty to sell itself to Bank of America.
 
As the credit crisis unfolded, liquidity in the capital markets all but disappeared as investor confidence plummeted. The heightened fears surrounding banks and finance companies drove the corporate sector to record wide spread levels. In response to the crisis in the capital markets, Treasury Secretary, Hank Paulson, brought the full resources of the U.S. Treasury Department to the fore with multiple programs including the $750 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program, designed to restore confidence in the U.S. financial system and to get credit flowing again.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Transamerica Partners High Quality Bond Portfolio returned 0.55%. By comparison, its benchmark, the Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Government/Corporate Bond Index (the “Index”), returned 4.69%. This Index became effective May 1, 2008. This Index comes closest to matching the investment objective of Transamerica High Quality Bond Portfolio. Prior to May 1, 2008, the Portfolio’s benchmark was the Merrill Lynch 1-3 year Treasury Index, which returned 6.61% for the year ended December 31, 2008.
 
Strategy Review:
 
We utilize a bottom up sector and security selection process that emphasizes high quality spread product sectors which include U.S. Treasuries and Agencies, Asset Backed Securities, Domestic Corporates, U.S. dollar denominated Yankee Notes, Commercial Mortgage Backed Securities, Agency Pass-throughs and Collateralized Mortgage Obligations and Non-Agency Residential Mortgage Backed Securities and maintain a duration neutral strategy versus the index.
 
Sector selection was the leading detractor of performance during the year as almost all spread sectors underperformed Treasuries, with the Portfolio’s over-weights in corporate financials, asset-backed, commercial mortgage-backed and non-agency residential mortgage-backed sectors contributing significantly to the underperformance versus the index.
 
The underweight in the U.S. Treasury and Agency sectors of the Portfolio versus the index also contributed to the underperformance as these were the two top performing sectors in the index for 2008. Steady withdrawals from the Portfolio throughout the year necessitated the sale of many of the Portfolio’s Treasury and Agency holdings which adversely affected the performance.

Individual security selection contributed favorably to the performance during the year. In the corporate sector, GE Capital, Merrill Lynch, and Credit Suisse saw spreads tighten from record wides reached during the year. Several Government National Mortgage Association project loan deals had a positive contribution due to strong demand for government guaranteed paper. The liquidation of the Lehman Brothers holdings in late August and early September (prior to the bankruptcy filing) was a net positive for the Portfolio’s relative performance as the market value declined precipitously at the announcement of the bankruptcy filing.
 
The duration overweight at the wings (inside of one year and longer than three years) detracted from the Portfolio performance during the year.

Market Overview:
 
The US economy and fixed income market found 2008 to be one of the most difficult years in decades. It can be best characterized by the persistent deterioration of the country’s economic fundamentals and severe technical disturbances that led to countless unprecedented, historical events. A toxic investment environment fueled a massive flight-to-quality, leading to the lowest Treasury yields in more than fifty years. The yield on the 10-year Treasury hit 2.06% on December 30. Within the Barclays Capital Indices, the Treasury sector returned 13.74% for the year. Spread sectors underperformed dramatically, led by commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) and asset-backed securities (“ABS”), which were down 20.52% and 12.72%, respectively. Investment-grade corporates were also down 4.94% on the year. While posting positive returns for the year, agencies and mortgages also underperformed Treasuries and were up 9.08% and 8.34%, respectively. By year-end, however, tentative signs appeared that aggressive and creative actions taken by the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) and the U.S. Treasury were working to stabilize the financial markets.
 
The housing market is at the core of the crisis, with its collapse the cause and recovery believed to be the cure of the ongoing turmoil. While home affordability has improved with the drop in price levels and mortgage rates, steadily rising unemployment is reducing the number of potential buyers. The unemployment rate reached a 15-year high of 7.2% in December, and is expected to continue to rise through the new year.
 
A large driver behind the increased joblessness is the wave of bankruptcies and layoffs started by Bear Stearns in March. In rapid succession, we witnessed the US government takeover of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers, the sale of Merrill Lynch to Bank of America, the US government takeover of AIG, the reorganization of Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, the collapse of Washington Mutual, and the forced takeover of Wachovia by Wells Fargo. US automakers teetered on the brink of insolvency but would become parties to the bailout programs created to salvage American industry.
 
The Fed and US Treasury created an “alphabet soup” of initiatives, including the Term Auction Facility (TAF), Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (TLGP), Commercial Paper Funding Facility (CPFF), Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility (TALF), and most notably the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) to help steady the economy. The most aggressive action from the Fed came in the form of monetary easing, lowering the Fed Funds target rate 400 basis points (“bps”) over the course of the year. At the Federal Open Market Committee December 16th meeting, it established a 0-0.25% target range for the Federal Funds rate. This is despite automobile sales, oil prices, and valuations on inflation-linked securities pointing toward a collapse in consumption and an emerging threat of deflation; a dramatic shift from the upward momentum in consumer and producer prices earlier in the year that took oil over $145 a barrel and caused concerns of stagflation. The Fed also implemented the open market purchase of agency debt and mortgage-backed securities.
 
We believe that December brought some indication that the worst of the crisis may be behind us. By year-end, money markets had recovered substantially from the unprecedented flight-to-quality that had caused huge money fund outflows and malfunctioning inter-bank markets. Improvement in the bond markets was more tentative, but the out-performance of spread sectors during December offered hope of relief from the relentless pressure of de-leveraging.
 
The Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) market sold off dramatically during the later portion of 2008, driven by both technical and fundamental factors. The market suffered dramatic de-leveraging from hedge

funds and commodities funds. As oil and other commodities fell from their peaks, inflation portfolios used in commodity portable alpha programs were forced to sell. From a fundamental perspective, the global slowdown, US recession and fall in commodities led to deflationary fears, which also weighed on the TIPS market.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Transamerica Partners Inflation-Protected Securities Portfolio returned (2.14%). By comparison, its benchmark, the Barclays Capital US TIPS Index (formerly, Lehman Brothers US TIPS Index), returned (2.35%).
 
Strategy Review:
 
BlackRock applies a controlled duration, relative value sector rotation, and security selection style to the management of our fixed income mandates. The distinguishing feature of BlackRock’s investment management style has been the ability to generate alpha within a risk-controlled framework. Real-time analysis of a vast array of risk measures allows assessment of the potential impact of various sector and security strategies on total return. As a result, we believe consistent value is added and performance volatility is controlled.
 
BlackRock’s disciplined investment process seeks to add value through:
 
•  relative value sector/sub-sector rotation and security selection,
 
•  rigorous quantitative security and portfolio valuations,
 
•  intense fundamental credit analysis,
 
•  portfolio duration controlled within a narrow band around a benchmark, and
 
•  the judgment of experienced portfolio managers
 
We believe the basis of successful investment performance is research and analysis of sectors and securities, not interest rate speculation. We believe that market-timing strategies are highly volatile and produce potentially inconsistent results. Our philosophy has not changed since the inception of the firm.
 
During 2008, the Portfolio had a TIPS curve flattening bias and has been underweight breakevens. We were biased towards on-the-run issues, and underweight off-the-runs. To add yield, we have held opportunistic allocations to spread sectors, including MBS, CMBS, ABS, and both nominal and inflation-linked corporate bonds. De-leveraging and technical factors have led to opportunity in these sectors as Treasuries have become increasingly expensive. The level of deflation that was priced in TIPS towards the end of the year made the securities costly to hold and increased the attractiveness of these alternatives. The small allocation to CMBS is in seasoned AAA paper and high subordination super-senior AAA bonds, which are well-protected from any deterioration in credit. We continue to monitor deal quality and swap into better names on opportunity. The corporates are primarily financials, though we are selective in this space and are avoiding regional names. The ABS holdings are short-dated paper from top-tier prime issuers.
 
Performance was predominately driven by the Portfolio’s TIPS curve flattener, overweight to on-the-run issues and underweight to off-the-runs. The Portfolio’s non-TIPS allocation had a negative impact on performance. The long Europe versus US trade had a slight negative impact. We closed out of this trade during the fourth quarter.

Over the year, the Portfolio was underweight Treasuries, which we view as expensive, and see better relative value in other high quality spread product. Our allocation to Agency debt increased given the attractive spread pickup to Treasuries and strong government support. We have maintained our over-weights to residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”). In Agency pass-through MBS, we are biased toward lower coupon paper, as the Fed absorbs the majority of supply in these relatively small coupons. We continue to hold non-agency MBS positions, primarily prime hybrid adjustable rate mortgages (“ARMs”), and prime 15- and 30-year conforming balance whole loan collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”). We also have a small allocation to option ARM securities with approximately 45-50% credit enhancement. The CMBS allocation is focused in seasoned AAA paper and high subordination super-senior AAA bonds, which are well-protected from any deterioration in credit. We continue to monitor deal quality and swap into better names on opportunity. We have maintained a small underweight to corporate bonds, but are overweight financials at current levels. We are selective in this space and are avoiding regional names, but opportunistically adding exposure through attractively valued new issues. The Portfolio is overweight ABS, and maintains an up-in-quality bias. We continue to focus on short-dated credit card and auto paper from top-tier prime issuers. The Portfolio has had limited exposure to the non-U.S. investment grade sectors over the year, with a high yield allocation ranging between 1-2%. We have also maintained non-US dollar exposure through Euro, UK, Japanese, and Mexican bonds and futures.
 
Over 2008, the best strategy would have been to hold 100% Treasuries, as all spread sectors underperformed. The major detractors from performance were our over-weights to CMBS and ABS, and non-Agency mortgage allocations. The Porfolio’s exposure to Lehman Brothers’ corporate debt was the only notable issuer with a markedly negative impact on performance. As to be expected in any instance of bankruptcy, the name sold off dramatically in September.

Transamerica Partners Total Return Bond Portfolio
 
Sub-advisors:
Western Asset Management Company
Western Asset Management Company, Ltd.
 
Market Overview:
 
The Federal Reserve (“Fed”) intensified its campaign against downside risks to growth in response to the deepening financial crisis. The spread between Treasuries and LIBOR surged beyond previous extreme levels, and without the provision of credit, investors began to question the durability of the underlying economy. The Federal Funds rate was reduced a cumulative 425 basis points (“bps”) (525 bps for the cycle) to near 0% by year end; this essentially moved the Fed beyond its traditional form of stimulus. A number of new lending facilities, designed to meet the liquidity demands of financial intermediaries across the full banking spectrum, were implemented. The Fed and the Treasury recently announced plans to channel up to $600 billion directly to the mortgage market, and up to $200 billion directly to consumer and small business finance, including credit card, auto and student loans. Details emerged that much of this funding would result in a major increase in the money supply. Yields on 30-year fixed-rate conventional mortgages declined roughly 1% as a result, to the lowest level on record. The Treasury allocated the first $250 billion of funds authorized under the Troubled Assets Relief Program (“TARP”) by taking direct equity stakes in the U.S. banking system. Economic data was negative and third-quarter GDP contracted 0.5% on falling consumption expenditures. Consumer confidence fell as labor market conditions deteriorated and equity prices plunged. The unemployment rate increased 1.7% to 6.7% (as of early December), though the U.S. dollar gained close to 6% against a trade-weighted basket of currencies. The dollar’s negative correlation with oil held strong as the price per barrel fell 54% after temporarily spiking in the summer. All in all, the year was the worst year for risk-taking in a quarter century. Spreads widened over 350 bps on investment-grade issues and more than 1,100 bps on high-yield issues. Mortgage-backed securities performed better, though even these government-backed securities underperformed Treasuries by 2.32% over the period. The S&P 500 Index lost 37% as volatility soared, marking 2008 as the worst year for equities since 1931.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Transamerica Partners Total Return Bond Portfolio returned (8.43%). By comparison, its benchmark, Barclays Capital US Aggregate Bond Index (formerly, Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index), returned 5.24%.
 
Strategy Review:
 
Our strategies produced significantly negative results. A large overweight exposure to the mortgage-backed sector detracted from returns as volatility remained high and negative housing news continued to damage market sentiment. We had diversified into a number of non-agency issues that were particularly impacted and further detracted from performance due to rising defaults, uncertainty in that marketplace and a lack of liquidity. An emphasis on lower-quality credits and select financial issues was also a large negative as spreads soared in the wake of the sub-prime lending crisis, deteriorating liquidity conditions and slowing economic growth. Spreads widened to new all-time highs in mid-March before partially recovering in April and May. These gains were given back later in the period, however, on deteriorating investor sentiment and poor earnings. The high-yield sector performed poorly on news of more ratings downgrades, rising defaults, and a volatile and declining stock market. A modest exposure to international bonds in other advanced economies had a negative impact as the flight-to-safety outside the U.S. was minimal relative to U.S. Treasury markets. A modest exposure to Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities had a negative impact as oil plunged to approximately $40/barrel and inflation

Transamerica Partners High Yield Bond Portfolio
 
Sub-advisor:
Eaton Vance Management
 
Market Overview:
 
For much of 2008, the high yield market was on pace to report a modest decline. The market had weathered such major events as the collapse of Bear Stearns, the debacles of Fannie and Freddie, along with such other events as the demise of AIG. The bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers was the catalyst that drove all credit markets into a major tailspin. All credit markets came to an abrupt halt as a liquidity crisis of epic proportions developed driving high yield spreads to unprecedented levels. Efforts by the Federal government, while numerous, were erratic and unpredictable. Margin calls, increased financing costs and large redemptions forced hedge funds to implement large selling programs into illiquid markets. The de-leveraging of the financial system along with the complete aversion to risk resulted in the worst year in recorded history for the high yield market. For the full year, the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index (the “Index”) declined 26.39%.
 
The final two weeks of December saw the high yield market shift dramatically. The Index rose 9.96% in the period from December 15th to December 31st, compared to a decline of 2.26% in the first two weeks of the month. For the month of December, the Index gained 7.47%. Driving the market higher was the government’s decision to assist General Motors followed by the decision to allow General Motors Acceptance Corp. (“GMAC”) to become a bank holding company. GMAC alone contributed approximately 200 basis points to the Index return in December.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Transamerica Partners High Yield Bond Portfolio returned (28.90%). By comparison, its benchmark, the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index, returned (26.39%).
 
Strategy Review:
 
While the Transamerica Partners High Yield Bond Portfolio outperformed the Index for the first nine months of 2008, the Portfolio’s fourth quarter return of (21.75%)was below that of the Merrill Lynch High Yield Index, which declined 17.63%. The Portfolio’s return of 4.22% in December was 3.25% less than that of the Index. The Portfolio was underweighted in autos. With a modest exposure to GMAC, performance was negatively affected by 2.1% in the fourth quarter. Security selection in names such as Charter Communications and Hospital Corp. of America had positive affects on the Portfolio for the quarter.
 
Throughout the year our strategy emphasized an overweight to the shorter maturity segment of the high yield marketplace, while staying senior in the capital structure. We remained focused on those companies generating free cash flow with no need to access the capital markets for the next few years, as we expected and ultimately experienced a declining earnings environment. From an industry perspective, we favored those such as Healthcare that are non-cyclical. This benefited our relative performance throughout most of the year. Sectors which affected the Portfolio returns negatively were Energy, Gaming and Paper. Sectors contributing positively were Healthcare, Broadcasting and Banking. Cash positions also provided positive returns as well.

Market Overview:
 
The S&P 500 Index (the “Index”) returned (37.00%) in the year 2008. All ten sectors in the Index were down for the period, particularly the Financials (–55.35%) and Materials (–45.67%) sectors. The heavily-weighted Financials sector was also the largest detractor (weight times performance) from Index returns.
 
The Barclays Capital US Aggregate Bond Index (formerly, Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index) returned 5.24% in 2008.

The two benchmarks had a blended return of (22.06%).
 
Strategy Review:
 
Goldman Sachs Asset Management, LP (Equity Portion) — Returns to the investment themes were positive overall for the year. Quality contributed most positively to excess returns, followed by Momentum, Management, and Sentiment. Profitability also added value, albeit to a lesser extent. Conversely, Valuation detracted from relative performance for the period.
 
Among sectors, stock selection was positive overall. Holdings in the Financials, Healthcare and Information Technology sectors outpaced their peers in the Index most. Meanwhile, holdings in the Consumer Staples, Consumer Discretionary and Materials sectors were least successful relative to their peers in the Index for the period.

Market Overview:
 
AllianceBernstein, LP — The US equity market collapsed in 2008 amid continuing disarray in the global credit markets and a deepening US recession. The S&P 500 Index dropped 21.9% in the fourth quarter and 37% for the year, one of the worst downturns on record. The carnage was pervasive, with Financials, Industrial Resources and other cyclical sectors leading the sell-off. Defensive sectors, such as Utilities, Consumer Staples and Healthcare, fell less than the market.
 
In this climate of widespread panic, the Russell 1000® Value Index and the Russell 1000® Growth Index also fell 36.9% and 38.4%, respectively, for the year. However, value metrics, which value managers like ourselves depend on, did poorly in 2008. Stocks trading at low valuations based on trailing earnings and book value underperformed, in sharp contrast to history.
 
TCW Investment Management Company — While the excitement of the presidential election and subsequent victory of Barack Obama stirred the country and the world, financial and economic issues set the tone for the market. Financial turmoil led the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) to slash the federal-funds rate to a range between 0%-0.25%, from 4.25% at the beginning of the year. The 10-year Treasury note dropped to nearly 2% from 4% at the end of 2007, the lowest level since the Depression era. These interest rate cuts were part of a major stimulus effort by Congress, the Treasury, and the Fed to stem the spiraling financial crisis. The “allowed” Lehman Brothers bankruptcy in mid-September is cited by many as the breaking point of the financial crisis and the economy. Gross Domestic Product dipped into negative territory in the third quarter and went over the cliff in the fourth quarter with the threatened collapse of the U.S. automotive industry and a few stumbles in the enactment and execution of the Treasury’s Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP). The economic slowdown led to a rising unemployment rate throughout the year that reached 7.2% at the end of December.
 
Consumers experienced asset value reductions in both real estate and equity holdings and faced tightening credit while trying to pay down debt amidst concerns of future job losses. Retail sales were negatively impacted by a shortened holiday season (by one less weekend) as well as by bad weather swaying already reluctant shoppers to stay home. Only the announcement by the Fed to purchase mortgage backed securities in an effort to lower home financing costs and falling prices at the gas pump helped offset consumers’ economic travails. Crude prices dropped precipitously since their high in July of $147/barrel to approximately $45 at year end.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Transamerica Partners Large Value Portfolio returned (42.94%). By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell 1000® Value Index, returned (36.85%).
 
Strategy Review:
 
AllianceBerstein, LP — During the period, the Portfolio underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 1000® Value Index, before fees. Stock selection in the financial sector accounted for most of the performance drag. Global recession fears also undermined many of our consumer-related holdings. Our extensive analysis of financial companies focused primarily on our holdings’ ability to absorb significant economic losses resulting from deteriorating credit-market conditions. We clearly underestimated the severity and abruptness of the

downward spiral of mark-to market losses and rating-agency downgrades that ultimately prevented these firms from accessing credit markets or raising equity without heavy dilution. The worst detractor in 2008 was American International Group, which relinquished 80% ownership to the government in exchange for financing. Other big detractors included Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which we exited, and Hartford Financial, where we see considerable return potential based on our long-term estimates.
 
While we are disappointed with recent results, we remain confident that we can ultimately deliver on our portfolios’ return potential. They now trade at some of the most attractive valuations versus their benchmarks in our history and at prices to book value comparable to levels of the early 1990’s banking crisis, which heralded one of our strongest periods of out-performance. We expect these pricing distortions to correct as the crisis runs its course and anxiety eventually subsides, which we believe should enable our portfolios to recover the losses of the past year and to restore the premium performance we and our clients expect.
 
TCW Investment Management Company — There have been no changes to our investment objective or strategy. However, given the precipitous decline in oil prices, we have found exciting opportunities in the Energy sector by initiating new names Valero, Anadarko Petroleum and Marathon Oil. Although we remain underweighted in Financials, we added Invesco and Lazard to the Portfolio.
 
The stocks that had the greatest positive impact over 2008 were Travelers Companies, Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Watson Pharmaceuticals and Bristol Myers-Squibb.
 
The stocks that had the greatest negative impact on performance were Fannie Mae, Tenet Healthcare, Flextronics and MeadWestvaco.

Market Overview:
 
Several long-standing records fell in 2008, as an anxious market confronted a financial crisis. The volatility level reached three times its previous high and short Treasury yields turned negative for the first time since the early 1940’s, as investors struggled to navigate through the economic turmoil. The outcome was the worst performance for the S&P 500 Index since 1937. To say this was a challenging year is clearly an understatement, but we believe there is a thick silver lining. Other unprecedented events that occurred during 2008 that we see as positive signals for equities include the government taking extraordinary action by infusing capital into financial companies and cutting the federal funds rate to near zero. Legitimate concerns abound in today’s environment, but investors must balance these risks with long term fundamentals and future cash flows. Eventually investors should understand the attractive valuations of many great companies and focus on ultimate intrinsic worth.
 
The credit crisis and its consequences dominated financial headlines throughout 2008. As a fundamental value manager, we became interested in a number of financial companies that had fallen deeply out of favor. Our research indicated that several hard-hit banks had sufficient capital on hand to absorb large future loan losses, which appeared to be the market’s primary concern. While this assessment may have indeed been accurate, we underestimated political and behavioral responses that eventually overwhelmed several of these positions. For example, early ad hoc government intervention that was intended to calm markets was astonishingly hostile to equity investors. This accelerated panic and punished stocks with either real or perceived credit risk. The bottom line: a focus on company fundamentals did not aid performance in 2008, as it would in other environments.
 
Having learned from its previous actions, the government changed course and decided to embrace, rather than punish, common shareholders of banks with the Troubled Assets Relief Program (“TARP”). The most important characteristic from a fundamental investor’s perspective was its sweeping scope. The plan increased the transparency of potential government action, which had been a main obstacle throughout the year. As the environment changed, our investment positions changed accordingly. The Portfolio holdings shifted to banks with dominant regional deposit share and TARP access. This included several banks that were able to purchase competitors at fire-sale prices with government backing. We maintain a meaningful weight in the Financials sector at year-end as the sector’s risk profile has declined considerably, based on our analysis.
 
We entered the year underweight in energy and global commodities as we believed the “decoupling” thesis surrounding the growth of emerging markets was overplayed. As energy prices have decelerated, we believe further investment opportunities may develop, but we remain underweight in these areas. The contraction of the U.S. economy has led the rest of the world into recession and has ended the leadership of the momentum style of investing. Eventually, as the U.S. economy emerges from recession, we believe that valuation will again become investors’ paramount criteria and a more rational investment period will ensue.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Transamerica Partners Value Portfolio, returned (46.62%). By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell 1000® Value Index, returned (36.85%).

Strategy Review:
 
Events in the financial sector trumped all else and caused a great deal of our underperformance for the year, as we underestimated the degree and unpredictability of government intervention. Freddie Mac was placed into conservatorship by the Federal Housing Finance Agency despite having complied with its long-established capital requirements. Washington Mutual was seized by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company (“FDIC”) following rapid withdrawals by depositors, many of whom were fully insured. Wachovia was purchased by Wells Fargo, after it came under regulatory pressure to sell itself quickly. Currently, all of our bank holdings have either issued shares to the Treasury to access TARP or have received full approval to do so.
 
Defensive areas such as Consumer Staples, Healthcare, and Utilities declined less than the market. Our stock selection in these areas was the strongest aspect of the Portfolio during the year. Within Consumer Staples, Wal-Mart Stores advanced 20% as the company’s under-levered balance sheet, economies of scale, and stronger than expected results attracted investors to the stock. Within Healthcare, our positions in pharmaceutical companies Astrazeneca, Schering Plough, and Bristol-Myers Squibb aided performance. We made gains from Astrazeneca when we sold out of the position in August, but maintained our investments in Schering Plough and Bristol Myers. Both have strong balance sheets with little or no debt and are returning valuable cash to shareholders. Within Utilities, Entergy, Exelon and FPL have traded down in step with falling prices for oil and natural gas. As gas prices fall, utility company revenues decline as operating costs remain unchanged. This compresses their profit margins.
 
This year has been one of the most difficult we have faced in our nearly 30-year history, but we have faced demanding times before and prevailed. In a market beset by confusion, we focus on what we know. Valuation remains the beacon that guides us. At the end of the day, a stock’s value continues to be the present value of its future cash flows. We are willing to incorporate new facts and new experiences, but our history tells us that our best course of action is to remain faithful to our core competency — fundamental value investing. Recent events have not eradicated the exceptional value we feel is embedded in our portfolios. We believe that several years from now we will look back at these rare times and be astounded by the risk/reward opportunities that were available.

Transamerica Partners Large Core Portfolio

BlackRock Financial Management, Inc.
 
Market Overview:
 
Aronson+Johnson+Ortiz, LP — To put our performance into context, we start with a description of the drivers of the broad market and then focus on the particular positioning of the Transamerica Partners Large Core Portfolio. It was a brutal year for stocks — any stocks. Within the U.S. equity market, in particular, the largest stocks (as represented by the Russell Top 200 Index) fell over 36%; mid-cap stocks (the Russell Midcap Index) were the biggest losers, dropping over 41%; and small-caps (the Russell 2000 Index) weren’t far behind, down nearly 34%. Across the cap spectrum, value fell slightly less than growth according to various style indices, despite the preponderance of financials classified as value stocks. Overall, the breadth, depth, and rapidity of declines mark the bursting of the “Risk Bubble,” making the Government the market’s biggest risk-taker.
 
BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. — 2008 turned out to be among the worst performing years for the U.S. equity market. The period was further marked by a massive increase in equity volatility as investors observed more than 40 days in which the S&P 500 Index advanced or declined by 3% or more. The origin of 2008’s trouble was the sub-prime lending market which rapidly spread to the overall housing market. Although equities fell steadily through most of the first eight months of the year, the pivotal event appeared to be the September bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers. Fear seemed to grip the market as selling continued to be driven by de-leveraging, escalating recession fear, and frozen credit markets. The housing downturn spread further into the rest of the economy while the credit crunch moved well beyond the financial sector into most other sectors. Monetary and fiscal authorities around the world launched an all out effort to stabilize the financial system. With these authorities still working on appropriate policy responses, 2008 ended with the S&P 500 Index down 37%. On an absolute basis, Financials led the market decline followed by Basic Materials and Industrials. Consumer Staples and Healthcare fell the least in 2008.
 
During the year, larger cap stocks underperformed small cap names as the Russell 2000® Index (–33.8%) beat the Russell 1000® Index (–37.6%) by 3.8%. From a style perspective, larger value stocks performed modestly better than large growth stocks as the Russell 1000® Value Index (–36.9%) beat the Russell 1000® Growth Index (–38.4%) by 1.6%.
 
Across our large cap core universe, dividend-paying stocks held no advantage over non-yielding stocks as both groups performed similarly during the year. As might be expected during periods of great turmoil, higher quality stocks (ranked B+ and above by Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”)) significantly out performed lower quality stocks (ranked B and below by S&P) during the same period.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Transamerica Partners Large Core Portfolio returned (36.65%). By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell 1000® Index, returned (37.60%).
 
Strategy Review:
 
Aronson+Johnson+Ortiz, LP — The Portfolio is disciplined and maintains a broadly diversified portfolio of large-cap stocks. We are committed to being fully invested in U.S. equities, avoiding broad sector bets, and taking only modest, stock-specific bets. Our goal is to outperform the Russell 1000® Index, with incremental

gains across the names held in the Portfolio. Using a bottom-up style of stock selection, we evaluate companies relative to their industry peers using three broad categories of measures: value, management, and momentum. Value means the somewhat traditional ratios of price to fundamental value; management means we look for evidence that a company’s executive team has and will continue to emphasize earning power; momentum indicates when stocks might begin to rise toward full valuation. As we search for opportunities, we keep a sharp eye on minimizing transaction costs, helping us to maximize profits in our stock-selection effort.
 
BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. — During the year, the Portfolio’s losses were mitigated relative to its Russell 1000® Value Index benchmark primarily by what it was driven to avoid. In the normal course of seeking companies with effective management and positive momentum characteristics, the Portfolio avoided some of the major financial stock disasters, including AIG, Citigroup, Merrill Lynch, Wachovia, Fannie Mae, and Lehman Brothers. Of course, the Portfolio experienced its share of disappointment — Goldman Sachs, TRW Automotive, Assurant Inc., Fifth Third Bancorp, and Sprint Nextel were the five biggest detractors from the Portfolio’s benchmark-relative return. That said, our philosophy of prudent diversification works to ensure that the net impact of any individual name won’t have a significant effect on the overall relative return. On the whole, our stock-picking effort was most successful in the financial sector compared to the financial holdings of the benchmark. We continue to make every effort to outperform the Portfolio’s benchmark by sticking to our value-oriented investment philosophy and disciplined investment process. We can only hope that 2009 will provide the once-in-a-lifetime investment opportunities of investors’ dreams!
 
During the year, the BlackRock large cap quantitative growth model was mixed and essentially flat, producing little predictive power across our large cap growth universe. Breaking down the year, the model was modestly positive during the first two quarters of the year but turned negative as the market was traumatized by the financial crisis during the second half. Further, difficult performance in a few sectors led to the Portfolio’s underperformance. Individual factor performance within our model was also mixed. Generally, valuation factors as a group produced very negative predictive power throughout the year with our Forecast Earnings to Price and Book to Price the most negative. Given the distress in the market, particularly in the second half of the year, investors may have been reluctant to put their faith in current estimates of earnings and book values leading to the very negative performance of these factors and valuation in general. Offsetting some of the negative performance from valuation was positive performance from our earnings expectations group of factors where Earnings Revisions Up and Earnings Surprise were good predictors. Our Forecast Estimate Dispersion factor also produced positive results. Price Momentum was mixed during the year producing some extreme monthly results, both positive and negative.
 
From a relative return perspective, Healthcare, Basic Materials and Consumer Non-cyclicals were the worst performing sectors. Holding overweight positions in highly ranked Kinetic Concepts (–64%), Charles River Labs (–60%), Merck (–45%), Life Technologies (–50%), Celanese (–70%), Freeport-McMoRan (–76%), Massey Energy (–61%), AK Steel (–80%), Herbalife (–45%), Jarden (–51%) and Pepsi Bottling (–42%) each hurt relative performance.
 
Offsetting some of the negative performance was strong relative performance from the Technology and Consumer Services sectors. Avoiding or holding underweight positions in lower ranked Cisco Systems (–40%), Dell (–58%), Adobe Systems (–50%), Electronic Arts (–73%), Honeywell (–45%), Sirius XM Radio (–96%), Dish Network (–64%), Las Vegas Sands (–94%), MGM Mirage (–84%) and Viacom (–57%) each contributed positively to relative performance.

The team applies quantitative techniques to analyze a universe of approximately 800 companies, including those in the Russell 1000 Growth® Index and about 125 other large and medium capitalization companies. Using a multifactor model, the team identifies stocks with rising earnings expectations that sell at low relative valuations when compared to their sector peers. Based on this information, and using sophisticated risk measurement tools, the management team selects stocks, together with their appropriate weightings, that it believes will maximize the Portfolio’s return per unit of risk. The Portfolio seeks to maintain the market capitalization, sector allocations, and style characteristics of the Russell 1000® Growth Index.

Market Overview:
 
Marsico Capital Management, LLC — U.S. large capitalization growth equities, as measured by the Russell 1000® Growth Index (“Russell 1000 Growth”), posted sharp declines for the one-year period ended December 31, 2008.
 
From the perspective of economic sector performance (using Global Industry Classification Standards for the Russell 1000 Growth as a reference point), weakness was widespread. All ten sectors in the Russell 1000® Growth Index posted negative returns. Financials (–53%), Energy (–50%), and Materials (–46%) were the worst-performing sectors. Consumer Staples was the best-performing sector with a return of (16%). All other sectors were down between (25%) and (44%).
 
Large capitalization equities underperformed their small capitalization counterparts by more than 3% (based on the Russell 1000® Index and Russell 2000® Index performance), although it bears mentioning that both indexes — with returns of (37.60%) and (33.79%), respectively — were deeply “in the red”. Within the US large capitalization arena, value narrowly outperformed growth during the period. The Russell 1000® Value Index and Russell 1000® Growth Index had total returns of (36.85%) and (38.44%), respectively.
 
OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. — This has been a year like no other in recent memory, with the global economy seriously weakened and confidence in equity markets shaken to a degree unseen in a generation or more. The ongoing credit crisis, housing collapse, and its far-reaching impact on financial markets has been unprecedented as the bear market that began in October 2007 reduced equity index values by more than half before recovering somewhat in the closing weeks of 2008.
 
The pervasive lack of credit in 2008 fueled a massive scaling back among U.S. corporations, increasing unemployment, and decreasing consumer spending. And while the third quarter Gross Domestic Product was only slightly negative, economists anticipate the fourth quarter will be among the worst on record, bringing unprecedented volatility to the markets.
 
While we would hesitate to call November 20th the ultimate low in the bear market that has ravaged equities over the past 14 months, the subsequent rally has been significant. From the intra-quarter low through December 31, the S&P 500 Index gained 20.5%. In an absolute sense, this rally surpasses the technical definition of a bull market; however, its brief duration precludes this designation as we typically look for a sustained rally over at least three months. Although not quite across that 20% threshold, the Russell 1000® Growth also soared in the closing weeks of 2008, gaining 19.3% from its intra-quarter low through quarter-end.
 
Wellington Management Company, LLP — The fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 was a difficult time for virtually all equity styles. Problems in the sub-prime mortgage market spread throughout the financial system, creating a full-blown liquidity/credit crisis that roiled global markets. The final two months of the fiscal year proved exceptionally tumultuous and were capped by an alarming series of events: the US government’s takeover of the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”), and American International Group, Inc. (“AIG”); the failure of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.(“Brothers”); the distressed sales of the commercial banking franchises of Washington Mutual, Inc. and

Wachovia Corporation; Bank of America Corporation’s acquisition of Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc.; and the conversion of investment banks, The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and Morgan Stanley, to commercial banks.
 
With an unprecedented level of coordination and cooperation, the US Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) presided over efforts to resuscitate credit markets and stabilize the financial system, culminating in the creation of the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”). An initial $350 billion was invested in nine large US financial institutions in an attempt to restore confidence in the system.
 
Concerns about inflation persisted through much of the fiscal year, fueled by record-high commodity prices. These worries were largely abated as the period came to a close, when slowing US demand and the weakening global economy caused oil and other commodities prices to drop. Over the year, the Fed lowered the fed funds rate from 4.25% to virtually 0.00%. The ongoing correction in the housing market, debt deflation, rising unemployment, and sluggish production and consumption patterns increasingly pointed to recession, as the effects of the credit crisis worked through the real economy.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Transamerica Partners Large Growth Portfolio returned (39.87%). By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell 1000® Growth Index, returned (38.44%).
 
Strategy Review:
 
Marsico Capital Management, LLC — The Portfolio’s performance was hurt by both stock selection and positioning in the Healthcare and Consumer Staples sectors. Healthcare and Consumer Staples were the strongest-performing areas of the Russell 1000® Growth Index and the Portfolio could have benefited by having more investments in these areas. The Portfolio’s results were also hampered by stock selection in the sectors. The Portfolio’s position in healthcare services company UnitedHealth Group Inc. slid 49% prior to being sold from the Portfolio. Consumer Staples position, CVS Caremark Corp., dropped 27%.
 
Information Technology positions Apple, Inc. and Google, Inc. hindered performance. In the Telecommunication Services sector, wireless provider China Mobile Ltd. and AT&T, Inc. each declined sharply prior to being sold. The Portfolio’s positions in hotel/casino operators Las Vegas Sands, Inc. and Wynn Resorts Ltd. also posted disappointing performance results. Energy holdings Transocean Ltd., Petroleo Brasileiro and Schlumberger Ltd. were also among the Portfolio’s weakest performing individual positions.
 
There were a few areas that had a positive impact on the Portfolio’s 12-month performance. While the Portfolio’s Financials positions posted a collective return of (33%), the return exceeded the (53%) return of the Russell 1000® Growth Index Financials sector. Similarly, the Portfolio’s Industrials holdings, in aggregate, posted a return that surpassed that of the Russell 1000® Growth Index Industrials sector. Certain of the Portfolio’s individual positions posted solid, positive returns, including McDonald’s Corp., Visa, Inc., and biotechnology company Genentech, Inc.
 
During the reporting period, the Portfolio’s average sector allocations emphasized the Consumer Discretionary, Industrials, Information Technology, and Energy sectors.
 
OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. — September and October were particularly difficult months as both the Portfolio and its benchmark suffered double-digit declines. In fact, October was the second worst one-month return in the benchmark’s 30-year history.
 
Over the course of the period for the Portfolio, six sectors added value while four detracted from it. Strong selectivity in the Consumer Discretionary sector proved beneficial, adding 0.6 percentage points of outperformance versus the Russell 1000® Growth Index. Toy-maker Hasbro was overweighted versus the index,

gaining 16.8% for the year. The Portfolio also benefited from positions in DirecTV Group (–3.6%) and Nike (–19.4%). Although both were lower in 2008, the individual stock returns were ahead of the Portfolio’s overall return, making each attractive on a relative basis.
 
Materials, with –0.8 percentage points of underperformance, was the most costly sector relative to the Russell 1000® Growth Index. AK Steel Holding (–84.2%) was among the Portfolio’s weakest holdings. The steel maker faced dwindling orders, production cuts and layoffs in the face of the economic slowdown, falling over 84% while held. Fertilizer producer, Mosaic (–75.4%), impacted by falling commodities prices, lost nearly three-quarters of its value in 2008.
 
The top five contributing stocks (in rank) were: Wal-Mart, IBM, Exxon Mobil, McDonald’s, and Philip Morris.
 
The Portfolio’s largest detractors for the period were: Apple, UnitedHealth, Schlumberger, and Google.
 
Our quantitative investment process can be summed with just two words: systematic and disciplined. We employ a dynamic, time-tested approach, based on a foundation of quantitative techniques combined with fundamental analysis to identify investment opportunities. The investment process is designed to create portfolios that closely reflect a benchmark’s fundamental characteristics.
 
The position we are in now, following the credit and housing burst, is strikingly similar to the bursting of the technology bubble at the start of the decade. Following that tumult, valuation and risk measures swung back into favor and our quantitative portfolios outperformed for the next several years. As was the case then, we have seen choppiness (with unprecedented volatility) and indiscriminate selling moving the markets back towards a historically normal risk-averse stance — something we consider as good for our process.
 
In our best case scenario, the economy shifts away from a deflationary spiral — a concern of many economists — and the financial system gradually moves out of its recession toward the middle or end of the year. As the market stabilizes, and our risk and valuation factors once again swing back into favor, we envision a prolonged period in which our fundamental-driven investment process is generating alpha with the potential to add value for the Transamerica Partners Large Growth Portfolio in 2009 and beyond.
 
Wellington Management Company, LLP — The Portfolio is a result of fundamental, bottom up stock selection. Our investment process leverages the extensive research resources of the firm and emphasizes a balance of growth, valuation, and quality criteria in selecting stocks. Our underweight to Consumer Staples along with weak stock selection within Healthcare was the primary driver of the Portfolio’s relative underperformance.
 
Healthcare holdings, including Humana, Bristol Myers Squibb and Gilead Sciences, detracted from performance. Within Industrials, capital goods firms Caterpillar, Rockwell Collins, and Fluor also hurt relative performance. These stocks declined, in part, as a result of the global credit crisis which reduced near term demand for large infrastructure projects.
 
Our underweight allocation to, and security selection within, the Consumer Staples sector also detracted from relative performance. Portfolio positioning reflects our belief that stocks within this traditionally defensive sector generally trade at relatively high multiples and do not offer the kind of growth and return opportunities that are consistent with our investment philosophy and objective.
 
The Portfolio’s three largest absolute detractors, Microsoft, Cisco, and, Cadence Design, were within the Information Technology sector. Cadence Design was also the Portfolio’s largest relative detractor. Shares declined on news of lower-than-expected guidance for the second half of the year, and their withdrawal of the proposal to acquire Mentor Graphics. We eliminated our position in the company as the fiscal year drew to a close.

For the one year period, relative performance was aided by the Energy sector. While overweight Energy for the first half of the year, during the summer we began closing the meaningful overweight because valuations became much less attractive. The Portfolio also benefited from a modest cash position, which helped relative performance in a downward-trending market.

Market Overview:
 
The global stock market’s dismal performance in 2008 reflected a global economic slowdown, a downright recession in the U.S., and a financial crisis that first surfaced in the sub-prime mortgage market. A relatively minor percentage of homeowners unable to meet their sub-prime mortgage obligations morphed into about 2 million home foreclosures, billions of dollars of complex, toxic mortgage securities that proved nearly impossible for financial institutions to either value or unload, and the most severe contraction of credit in modern times. In March, the once-storied New York investment firm Bear Stearns collapsed. The unemployment rate rose to 7.2%, and, alas, was widely expected to go higher still in the months ahead. Financial titans Merrill Lynch, Washington Mutual, and Wachovia found themselves starved for cash and ended up being acquired by better-capitalized competitors. Mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were nationalized. The Treasury Department had to provide an immediate bridge loan to American International Group, the world’s largest insurance company, in order for it to survive. All of it culminated in a $700-billion bailout package by the federal government and a slashing of the Federal Reserve’s short-term interest rate to near zero to help stabilize a teetering global financial system.
 
Governments around the world were quick to act in an attempt to mitigate the meltdown in the credit and equity markets in 2008. Following rate cuts in the U.S., countries from Australia to Japan to the European Union also lowered their short term interest rates while U.S. President-elect Obama pledged a fiscal stimulus package of approximately $1 trillion. Even with these actions, the US economy continued to weaken. In December, the National Bureau of Economic Research said that America officially fell into a recession back in December 2007.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Transamerica Partners Growth Portfolio returned (51.00%). By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell 1000® Growth Index, returned (38.44%).
 
Strategy Review:
 
The Portfolio seeks to invest in fundamentally attractive companies with strong earnings growth rates. In the Consumer Discretionary sector, slower growth companies that we did not own held the high ground, while the market punished the higher growth companies that we favor. For example, well known companies that we did not own like Wal-Mart and McDonald’s held up reasonably well. On the other hand, shares of Google, the Portfolio’s largest position, traded substantially lower. We continue to hold shares of this company, as an improving economic environment could provide for a more favorable earnings outlook and improved valuation in 2009. Also of note in this sector was the poor showing posted by Baidu — a Chinese internet search provider. We sold this company during the fourth quarter due to concerns that its paid-search listings include unlicensed pharmaceutical companies among its top bidders for medical keywords. With the company’s integrity in doubt, this company was sold.
 
In the technology sector, the Portfolio’s holdings in Broadcom and Qualcomm held up reasonably well. Additionally, the Portfolio is poised to benefit from key holdings Apple and Hewlett Packard. Apple, a well known leader and innovator when it comes to consumer electronics, is currently trading at a mid-teens price-to-earnings multiple, with an earnings growth rate in the low 20% area. Hewlett Packard has a balanced worldwide

revenue profile, with compelling cost cutting opportunities from the recent EDS acquisition. Additionally, this company also appears very attractive in terms of its Price/Earnings to growth rate.
 
On the positive side, the Materials/Processing sector contributed the most to relative results during the year, as fertilizer company, Mosaic Co. benefited from soaring crop prices over the summer. In addition, the Portfolio benefited from avoiding major steel companies, such as United States Steel and AK Steel Holding Corp., which were down significantly during the year.

Market Overview:
 
Cramer, Rosenthal, McGlynn, LLC — Reality has set in. The lack of a functioning credit market finally caught up to the global economy this past quarter. We have discussed for the past year the critical relevance of credit and commodities for a stable economy and strong equity markets. Commodity prices from Aluminum to Zinc have collapsed as a result of weakening global demand and an inability to maintain the financial leverage supporting many positions. In a strange virtuous circle, high commodity prices (including housing as a commodity for this purpose) hurt the economy, which then hurt the credit markets, which further hurt commodities, and so forth. The expression “negative feedback loop” is becoming cliché, but it is still descriptive for what has happened to the global economy over the past few months. Fears of inflation have rapidly transformed into fears of deflation, with global central bankers undertaking dramatic and, in many cases, unconventional monetary easing to pump life back into the credit markets. Governments around the world are proposing fiscal spending programs by the day to further stimulate their economies and mollify depression-like conditions. In addition to credit and commodities, the third “C” is confidence, and whether referring to consumer or business or even government, it has been eroded. This loss of confidence has caused a shedding of the disbelief and denial that seemed to be holding the economy together through most of the year. It is really this lack of confidence that fuels the negative feedback loop.
 
The inability or unwillingness of banks and financing sources to provide basic credit for day to day transactions has resulted in companies taking a variety of self-help measures that make good sense in isolation, but further drive the economic contraction. These steps include: liquidating their inventories to raise cash; cutting headcount and discretionary expenditures; and paring back capital spending to maintenance levels. The cumulative impact of all of these logical decisions is a precipitous decline in economic activity the likes of which this generation has never experienced. It now appears that most developed economies will have contracted at a mid to high single digit rate in the fourth quarter and most businesses are witnessing ten percent or greater declines in revenues and orders.
 
We continue to approach the investment climate with a balance of optimism and realism. To be an investor, one has to maintain an optimistic mind set and believe that our free market system, while imperfect, is resilient and that innovation and superior management execution will be recognized. It is always impossible to call a bottom and we know that cheap can get cheaper over the near term. However, we believe those investors who will allow themselves the luxury of looking out beyond the next few months to properly value a security based upon its longer term opportunities and cash flows, may be handsomely rewarded.
 
LSV Asset Management — The fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 was an awful year for stocks around the globe. It was the worst year for the S&P 500 Index since 1931 and all segments of the U.S. stock market declined sharply as the economy quickly soured in the face of worsening economic news and perhaps the worst credit crisis the country has seen in the past 80 years! The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Russell Mid Cap Value Index declined 38.4% in 2008, marking the worst year for that index since it started back in 1987.
 
Problems in the sub-prime mortgage market spread throughout the financial system, creating a full-blown liquidity/credit crisis that roiled global markets. The final two months of the fiscal year proved exceptionally tumultuous and were capped by an alarming series of events: the US government’s takeover of the Federal

National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) and American International Group, Inc. (“AIG”); the failure of Lehman Brothers Holdings; the distressed sales of the commercial banking franchises of Washington Mutual, Inc. and Wachovia Corporation; Bank of America Corporation’s acquisition of Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc.; and the conversion of investment banks, The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and Morgan Stanley, to commercial banks. Investor panic peaked in late November and the term ‘bail out’ became a household name to many Americans. Clear signs of panic were abound in the market as intraday volatility hit unprecedented levels. Commodity prices also saw a roller coaster ride in 2008 with oil prices rising from $90 per barrel to nearly $150 by mid July only to fall to approximately $40 late in 2008.
 
With an unprecedented level of coordination and cooperation, the US Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) presided over efforts to resuscitate credit markets and stabilize the financial system, culminating in the creation of the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”). Over the year, the Fed lowered the fed funds rate from 4.50% to a range between 0%-0.25% The ongoing correction in the housing market, debt deflation, rising unemployment, and sluggish production and consumption patterns increasingly pointed to recession, as the effects of the credit crisis worked through the real economy.
 
RiverSource Investments, LLC - The annual period was dominated by skyrocketing oil and gasoline prices, the after-shocks of the mortgage market collapse, ongoing deterioration of the housing market, and concerns about whether the U.S. economy was or was not in a recession. Unprecedented intervention by the government saved several financial institutions, while others collapsed. Investor sentiment shifted from hope for a market recovery, to heightened concern over extreme levels of volatility, to eventual panic by the end of the year. Investors sought safe havens for investments — defensive areas such as Consumer Staples, Utilities and Healthcare. Overall, mid-cap equities slightly trailed their large-cap counterparts during the twelve-month period.
 
Against this challenging backdrop, the Portfolio’s sector allocation was the primary detractor to performance. The Portfolio’s overweight in the Producer Durables and Energy sectors hurt results as these were two of the worst performing sectors in the Russell Mid Cap Value® Index. In addition, the Utilities and Consumer Staples sectors were two of the best performing sectors in the Russell Mid Cap Value® Index and the Portfolio’s underweight detracted from relative performance.
 
The Portfolio benefited from positive stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector, specifically Family Dollar Stores, which rose sharply during the period. Early in the year, we purchased a basket of several retail holdings including Kohl’s, Nordstrom, JCPenney, Bed Bath and Beyond and Macy’s. We sold the majority of the basket during the third quarter for a profit. Finally, positive stock selection in the technology sector helped results, in particular McAfee and EDS.
 
Toward the end of the annual period, we increased the Portfolio’s allocation to the Financials sector, specifically financial services holdings because we felt valuations were attractive. We also added a basket of regional banks to the Portfolio because we felt banks were trading at favorable discounts. We reduced the Portfolio’s tobacco holding in Lorillard and eliminated Ford Motor Co. from the Portfolio. We exited the position in Ford when our long-term view of the company changed during the period as a result of the government’s involvement in the auto industry.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Transamerica Partners Mid Value Portfolio returned (37.73%). By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell Mid Cap Value® Index (“RMCV”), returned (38.44%).

Strategy Review:
 
Cramer, Rosenthal, McGlynn, LLC — The leading contributors to this year’s performance were UnionBanCal, Dollar Tree and ENSCO International Inc. Shares of the commercial bank, UnionBanCal, rose during the third quarter on the announced tender offer from its majority parent, Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group. We tendered our shares into the offering, which closed on Sept. 26th. Dollar Tree stock was strong during the second quarter of the year as the value retailer delivered better than expected same store sales and earnings. Dollar Tree benefited from increased customer traffic, as consumers focused on basic household items and looked to stretch their discretionary dollars. Dollar Tree continued to post strong results through the third quarter as consumers responded to its value offerings. Shares of ENSCO, an owner of offshore drilling rigs, gained in the first quarter of the year, as day rates continued to accelerate worldwide and utilization in the sluggish U.S. Gulf of Mexico began to recover.
 
Electronic Arts Inc., Textron and Goodrich Corp. were the leading detractors for the strategy during the year. We increased our position in Electronic Arts during the third quarter as quality initiatives driven by the new management at the video game developer were beginning to show positive results. Further, the company had announced imminent plans to launch a slate of new games which we believed would drive significant profit improvements. Textron underperformed during the second half of the year as the strains of the broader financial pinch pressured the financing outlook for both its Cessna jet customers and its financial services subsidiary. We exited our position, as we believe that the losses at Textron will be higher than estimated and the soft earnings at Cessna will linger longer than current expectations are discounting. Goodrich Corp. shares fell in the second quarter as investors feared the negative impact of the reduction in schedules of commercial airlines on its lucrative aftermarket business. We believe these fears are misplaced as Goodrich has relatively little exposure to the older planes that are being retired and greater exposure on newer platforms that are still ramping up. Further, we expect that as Boeing and Airbus finally increase the production of the 787 and A380, respectively, cash flow will accelerate dramatically, which should more than pay back the last few years of investment.
 
LSV Asset Management — LSV Asset Management is a quantitative value manager focused on building a diversified portfolio of stocks with attractive fundamentals. The Portfolio could be characterized as “deep value” in nature because LSV maintains below benchmark valuations metrics like price/cash flow, price/earnings, price/book and price/sales values. Stock selection and this style bias are the primary contributors to results over time.
 
During the year, the RMCV actually outperformed the Russell Mid Cap® Index by about 3%, indicating that value stocks held up modestly better than growth stocks. However, within the RMCV, it was the more growth oriented companies that did best. For example, if you sort the companies in the RMCV into five buckets based on Market/Book (“M/B”) ratios, the group with the lowest (more value oriented) M/B declined by 53% during the year while the most expensive group fell just 34%. LSV’s emphasis on being “deep value” certainly didn’t help by that analysis, yet stock selection helped overcome the style bias contained in the Portfolio. The impact of LSV’s deep value bias was a negative 3.25%, so stock selection proved most helpful during the year to help boost the relative returns.
 
Some of the larger contributors to our relative outperformance were takeover companies like Nationwide Financial Services, UnionBanCal and Safeco, all of which posted positive returns in a very tough year. We also benefitted from owning Hess Corp. in the Portfolio in the first half of the year as oil prices were rising, but, we sold the stock prior to the plunge in oil prices and energy company shares.

RiverSource Investments, LLC — In our view, economic activity will continue to contract through 2009; however, volatility should lessen from the extremes seen in 2008. As volatility slowly fades and the aggressive government intervention in the economy begins to take effect, we believe equity markets will begin an eventual recovery that will run into 2010. With risk aversion and valuations at highs not seen for decades, we believe equities have become very compelling. Within the Portfolio, we have de-emphasized areas that are defensive in nature in favor of sectors and industries that have typically benefited from market recoveries.

Transamerica Partners Mid Growth Portfolio
 
Sub-advisor:
Columbus Circle Investors
 
Market Overview:
 
Stocks plummeted during the fourth quarter of 2008, capping the market’s single worst year since the Great Depression. As the financial crisis worsened, economic activity and corporate profits began to contract sharply as consumers and businesses both cut spending. Following lows set in October and November, the impact of the Federal Reserve’s increasingly aggressive easing efforts and future stimulus plans will be closely watched for signs of success in arresting the economic decline.
 
Although significant monetary and fiscal policy stimulus is being undertaken in an effort to stem the contractionary effects of the shift from excess consumer spending to excess consumer savings, real damage has already been done to the economy and corporate profits. Having discounted a significant earnings decline, the stock market is now seeking to gauge the new reality before embarking on its future path. Over the next several quarters, it is likely that the market will remain fairly volatile until a consensus emerges with regard to the future.
 
In this environment, we continue to focus on stocks benefiting from strong secular trends and company-specific stories, especially those having more predictable earnings streams. We are carefully monitoring the effect that monetary and fiscal stimulus is having on the economy, however, it is to determine if a more aggressive investment posture is warranted. In the meantime, we have added some names to the Portfolio that could benefit from the significant domestic infrastructure investment associated with the proposed stimulus plans.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Transamerica Partners Mid Growth Portfolio returned (41.55%). By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell Mid Cap Growth® Index, returned (44.32%).
 
Strategy Review:
 
Columbus Circle Investor’s team of investment analysts monitors numerous factors including political and/or economic developments, secular trends, industry and/or group dynamics, and company specific events to determine which companies are best positioned to benefit in revenue and earnings acceleration. Investments are selected on the basis of their potential to exceed consensus forecasts. All sectors lost value, but on a relative basis the portfolios saw out-performance in the Consumer Staples, Materials, and Energy sectors, partially offset by underperformance in the Industrial and Consumer Discretionary sectors.
 
Southwestern Energy was one of several exploration and production stocks that we owned throughout 2008 that focuses on developing unconventional natural gas reserves in promising U.S. onshore gas fields such as the Fayetteville Shale. Due in large part to improving drilling techniques and operating experience, results from their core properties continue to improve, leading to upward revisions to their reserves and potential future production. We sold the stock during 2008, however, as natural gas prices declined with the worsening economy.
 
Millennium Pharmaceutical is a biotechnology company focusing on hematology and oncology products. We owned the stock for its promising multiple myeloma drug, Velcade, whose clinical data continued to suggest upside potential. Our investment thesis was validated when the company reported sales significantly above expectations, causing management to raise guidance. Takeda Pharmaceuticals, the large Japanese drug

company, announced the strategic acquisition of Millennium during the quarter for a significant premium and we sold the stock shortly thereafter.
 
SPX Corp, a diversified manufacturing company, succumbed to the fears that infected the stocks of companies that serve the Energy sector, despite robust order growth that continued for power plant cooling systems and power transformers embedded in transmission systems. Although we have meaningfully reduced it, we still own a small position in the stock as the company remains ahead of schedule for improving the operating margins of its APV unit and management is aggressively buying back the company’s shares.
 
Cameron International, a leading oil service equipment company, also succumbed to the fears that infected the stocks of companies that serve the Energy sector despite operating results and backlog growth that were better than expectations. We maintain a reduced position in Cameron as it is benefiting from the trend toward increased offshore activity, as more construction and drilling occurs in deeper and more remote waters.

Transamerica Partners Small Value Portfolio
 
Sub-advisors:
OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc.
Mesirow Financial Investment Management, Inc.
 
Market Overview:
 
OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. — This has been a year like no other in recent memory with the global economy seriously weakened and confidence in equity markets shaken to a degree unseen in a generation or more. The ongoing credit crisis, housing collapse, and its far-reaching impact on financial markets has been unprecedented as the bear market that began in October 2007 reduced equity index values by more than half before recovering somewhat in the closing weeks of 2008.
 
The pervasive lack of credit in 2008 fueled a massive scaling back among U.S. corporations, increasing unemployment, and decreasing consumer spending. And while third quarter Gross Domestic Product was only slightly negative, economists anticipate the fourth quarter will be among the worst on record, bringing unprecedented volatility to the markets.
 
While we would hesitate to call November 20th the ultimate low in the bear market that has ravaged equities over the past 14 months, the subsequent rally has been significant. From the intra-quarter low through December 31, small-cap value stocks outpaced all other size and style breakdowns: The Russell 2000® Value Index gaining 31.2% (the S&P 500 Index returned 20.5% over this same horizon). In an absolute sense, this surpasses the technical definition of a bull market (a gain of 20%); however, its brief duration (just six weeks) precludes this designation. We typically look for a sustained rally of at least three months.
 
The position we are in now, following the credit and housing burst, is strikingly similar to the bursting of the technology bubble at the start of the decade. Following that tumult, valuation and risk measures swung back into favor and our portfolios outperformed for the next several years. As was the case then, we have seen choppiness (with unprecedented volatility) and indiscriminate selling moving the markets back towards a historically normal risk-averse stance — something we consider as good for our process.
 
Mesirow Financial Investment Management, Inc. — The fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 represented the toughest investment year that any of us had experienced in our investment careers. Simply put, there was no place to hide. Value stocks, growth stocks, small cap and large cap all were hit with “tsunami-like” force. In 2008, the S&P 500 Index experienced the highest volatility since 1938 (Source: Leuthold Weeden Institutional Research). The volatility rippled through the market, leaving no sector untouched.
 
It is tempting to blame the market debacle in 2008 on the sub-prime mortgage crisis. Certainly that played a part. Nevertheless, other factors contributed significantly as well. Lax, sometimes non-existent, regulation let these excesses grow. Overly accommodative monetary policy fueled the bubble. The Federal Deposit Insurance Company was forced to shut an unprecedented 28 banks in 2008. Most notably, the ad hoc response by the Treasury and the Federal Reserve in these unprecedented conditions, left doubt and uncertainty to prey on the investing public and likely led to the panic that characterized this year. Finally, allowing Lehman Brothers to fail put the topper on the credit crunch and ignited the tinder that had been built up by these other factors.
 
The credit crunch has led the global economy into a world wide recession. Even the high-growth emerging market economies are suffering from a severe slowdown in their growth rates.
 
The outcome is that most major equity indexes were down around 35-40% in 2008. Indexes are off over 40-45% from their highs late in 2007. As a result, we are finding values that we have not seen in some time in the market.

It is not unusual to find companies that are trading at low single digit price to earnings multiples, even after factoring in worst case assumptions for 2009 earnings. With massive monetary stimulus already in place, and massive fiscal stimulus promised by the incoming administration, the building blocks may be in place for markets to begin to improve.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Transamerica Partners Small Value Portfolio returned (26.63%). By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell 2000® Value Index, returned (28.92%).
 
Strategy Review:
 
OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. — Our quantitative investment process can be summed with just two words: systematic and disciplined. We employ a dynamic, time-tested approach based on a foundation of quantitative techniques combined with fundamental analysis to identify investment opportunities. The investment process is designed to create portfolios that closely reflect a benchmark’s fundamental characteristics.
 
Consumer Discretionary was costly on both an absolute and relative basis in 2008, with much of the sector’s shortfall attributable to the Specialty Retail group. Asbury Automotive Group (–86.0%), for example, fell sharply late in the year after announcing that tighter lending standards and declining consumer confidence led to lower third-quarter earnings. The stock was sold from the Portfolio. Similarly, Sonic Automotive (–69.2%) announced a third-quarter loss due to the weak vehicle market.
 
The Financials sector also contributed to the Portfolio’s shortfall in 2008. Virtually all of the sector’s shortfall came as a result of weak stock selectivity of the Portfolio’s Real Estate Investment Trust holdings. The collapsing housing bubble pulled Ashford Hospitality and Glimcher Realty Trust down 81.8% and 65.0%, respectively, for the year, while held by the Portfolio.
 
On a more positive note, the top five contributing stocks during the period (in rank) were: Arkansas Best, Encore Acquisition, Whiting Petroleum, CH Energy Group, and Pantry Inc.
 
The market rally in the final weeks of 2008 was a welcome respite from a difficult year and performance from the November 20th low through quarter-end was strong. The Portfolio gained 32.8% over the final six weeks of 2008, 1.6 percentage points ahead of the Russell 2000® Value Index. Both the Portfolio and its benchmark outperformed the broad-market S&P 500 Index which returned 20.5% over this same period.
 
Mesirow Financial Investment Management, Inc. — We construct a portfolio from the bottom up. Our proprietary screening models help to identify a pool of inexpensive, “value” stocks to focus on. We concentrate our fundamental analysis to help identify companies with sustainable free cash flow, progressive dividend policy and strong balance sheets that we believe are currently trading below their true value. We expect that over time, catalysts will emerge to drive these companies back to fair valuation.
 
In 2008, we were extra sensitive to maintaining a “margin of safety” in analyzing the companies we invested in. We remained on the lookout for potential disappointments. For example, we trimmed several regional banks from our portfolios as they showed signs of weakening capital and increasing non-performing loans.
 
We found few “fat pitches” and preferred to hold less stocks that we were more confident in, rather than forcing ourselves to invest. Our turnover was lower than usual.
 
Arkansas Best was one of our best performing stocks in 2008. Earnings held up well and the company performed strongly. We sold our position mid year, near its annual high for 2008.

EZCORP has been another strong performer. EZCORP is the largest publicly traded pawn shop and pay day loan operator. Ironically, in a tough economic environment, there is ever increasing demand for their services.
 
Stock selection in Financials and Healthcare was strong and they were our two strongest performing sectors, relative to the underlying benchmark.
 
Osh Kosh Truck (“Osh Kosh”) was a disappointing holding in 2008 and negatively impacted the Portfolio. Osh Kosh makes trucks for military uses, garbage trucks and fire trucks. Concerns over military orders for its armored trucks and price competition in Europe have been headwinds for Osh Kosh. Nevertheless, we still believe that this is a well managed company that will ride out the cyclical headwinds.
 
Holly Corp. and Frontier Oil, both oil refinery companies, suffered as well. The downturn has negatively impacted gasoline demand, thus putting pressure on refinery margins. As the price of energy has come down, our overweight in Energy has also negatively impacted the Portfolio, although our stock picks in the energy sector outpaced the sector within the Portfolio’s benchmark.

Sub-advisors:
Fort Washington Investment Advisors, Inc.
RS Investment Management Co., LLC
INVESCO Institutional (NA), Inc.
Wellington Management Company, LLP
 
Market Overview:
 
Fort Washington Investment Advisors, Inc. — The problems that plagued the markets in the second half of 2008 include but are not limited to:
 
•  The demise of several former bellwether financial firms.
 
•  The continued housing slump.
 
•  The freezing of the credit markets.
 
•  Rapid decline in commodity prices and commodity stocks.
 
What was different about fourth quarter, as compared to the prior quarter, is that the market seemed to find some solid footing, even if only since November 20-21, as several catalysts materialized to halt the rapid deterioration in investor sentiment.
 
The returns of the Portfolio were negatively impacted by the aforementioned issues and although the market rallied fairly significantly in the last five weeks of the year, it was not enough to offset the prior damage. The impact on the Portfolio from the market/economic environment was most acutely felt in the Energy sector from a negative absolute return perspective, as deteriorating global economic growth reduced demand for most commodities. In general, though, all sectors were impacted as well from the credit freeze that occurred.
 
RS Investment Management Co., LLC — Overall, 2008 was a year in which investors found few safe harbors. Most major sectors of the Russell 2000 Growth® Index experienced declines of more than 30%, with some sectors losing over 50%. Hardest hit in this environment were companies with weak balance sheets that relied on excess leverage. All of 2008 will likely be remembered for many years, and perhaps for decades, as one of the most turbulent periods in the modern history of equity markets.
 
INVESCO Institutional (NA), Inc. — The financial and economic crisis led to historic levels of market turbulence in 2008. The carnage intensified as the year progressed, with the fourth quarter generating negative returns for the Russell 2000® Value Index in excess of 20%, despite a positive return in December. For the year, U.S. equity markets across the style and capitalization range fell more than 30%. There was nowhere to hide as global equity markets generally fared worse than the U.S. There was no meaningful difference between U.S. growth and value stocks but large stocks underperformed small stocks in 2008, which was surprising given increased risk aversion.
 
A global flight to quality led to positive returns for U.S. treasuries, gold held fairly steady, and the U.S. dollar rose against all major currencies except the Japanese Yen.
 
Governments and central banks worldwide injected liquidity into the credit markets to stave off the near-collapse of the global financial system and to restrain the economic slowdown. The U.S Federal Funds rate dropped from 4.25% at year-end 2007 to near 0% at year-end 2008. During the year, we witnessed the largest bank failures in U.S. history. The investment banking industry was under severe duress, which led Bear Stearns and Merrill Lynch to be acquired by J.P. Morgan and Bank of America, respectively, while Lehman Brothers declared

bankruptcy. Commodities were strong until global demand slowed, which led to a meaningful sell-off in the second half. Crude oil, which started the year around $100, peaked at $145 in July and ended the year around $44. By year-end, the financial crisis had spread to Main Street and the U.S. government extended bridge loans to the Big Three Detroit automakers to avoid their bankruptcy.
 
Wellington Management Company, LLP — The year ended December 31, 2008 was a difficult time for virtually all equity styles. Problems in the sub-prime mortgage market spread throughout the financial system, creating a full-blown liquidity/credit crisis that roiled global markets. The latter half of 2008 proved exceptionally tumultuous and was capped by an alarming series of events: the US government’s takeover of the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”), and American International Group, Inc. (“AIG”); the failure of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.; the distressed sales of the commercial banking franchises of Washington Mutual, Inc. and Wachovia Corporation; Bank of America Corporation’s acquisition of Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc.; and the conversion of investment banks, The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and Morgan Stanley, to commercial banks.
 
With an unprecedented level of coordination and cooperation, the US Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) presided over efforts to resuscitate credit markets and stabilize the financial system, culminating in the creation of the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”). An initial $350 billion was invested in nine large US financial institutions in an attempt to restore confidence in the system.
 
Concerns about inflation persisted through much of the fiscal year, fueled by record-high commodity prices. These worries were largely abated as the period came to a close, when slowing US demand and the weakening global economy caused oil and other commodities prices to drop. Over the year, the Fed lowered the fed funds rate from 4.25% to virtually 0.00%. The ongoing correction in the housing market, debt deflation, rising unemployment, and sluggish production and consumption patterns increasingly pointed to recession, as the effects of the credit crisis worked through the real economy.
 
Portfolio Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Transamerica Partners Small Core Portfolio returned (36.06%). By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell 2000® Index, returned (33.79%).
 
Strategy Review:
 
Fort Washington Investment Advisors, Inc. — On the positive side of the ledger, relative returns in the Consumer Discretionary, Industrials, and Telecommunication Services sectors, along with a benefit from cash holdings helped to nearly offset the negative impact of the Energy, Healthcare and Technology sectors. Several healthcare names were particularly weak primarily due to company specific events. In addition, several energy names declined significantly due to the large drop in energy prices.
 
Individual names that added to performance include:
 
•  Industrials — Aerovironment, Duff & Phelps and ESCO Electronics
 
•  Consumer discretionary — Panera Bread Company, BJ’s Restaurants and PetMed Express
 
•  Healthcare — Genomic Health and Alexion Pharma
 
•  Financials — Ezcorp
 
•  Technology — Foundry Networks

Among the individual names that detracted from performance:
 
•  Healthcare — RTI Biologics, Spectranetics, and BioMarin Pharma
 
•  Energy — ION Geophysical, Berry Petroleum, Lufkin Industries, and Atwood Oceanics
 
•  Industrials — Energy Conversion Devices
 
•  Technology — Wright Express
 
•  Materials — Terra Industries
 
The Portfolio is positioned as follows:
 
•  As has been the case for several years, our largest sector overweight continues to be Healthcare, by about 3% relative to the Portfolio’s benchmark. We continue to see the greatest number of opportunities in that sector for sustained, high growth relative to other sectors with less sensitivity to the broader economy.
 
•  The Consumer Staples sector is a new overweight position at about 2.6% over the Portfolio’s benchmark.
 
•  We are still about 2.5% underweight in Industrials and Technology as we are concerned about the impact of slowing global growth on the companies in these sectors. However, in Industrials, we saw opportunities to add to or initiate positions in stocks that were at extremely depressed levels due to concerns about domestic and/or global economic activity. We believe some of these companies should benefit from the new administration’s infrastructure stimulus package.
 
•  We have used the nearly unprecedented sell-off in some Energy names to take our energy sector position from what was an underweight to neutral.
 
•  Financials are now slightly underweight by about 1% relative to the Portfolio’s benchmark weight. We still own no banks or thrifts due to continuing concerns about the credit cycle. However, we are becoming more interested in those two groups and would begin to initiate positions once we believe we can appropriately assess the worst case credit cycle scenario.
 
RS Investment Management Co., LLC — Healthcare and Financial stocks detracted most significantly from relative performance. We believed that these economic sectors were well-positioned to weather a U.S. consumer-led recession and a global commodities-led slowdown, and they did decline by less within the Russell 2000® Growth Index than the Russell 2000® Index. Nonetheless, poor stock selection led to relative losses for the Portfolio. On the positive side, strong stock selection in the Energy sector— where we had anticipated challenges — aided relative returns.
 
In technology, EPIQ Systems, a software provider which processes bankruptcy claims, delivered positive returns for the year and was a clear beneficiary of the failures of several large companies in 2008. EPIQ is a good example of a technology company with high levels of recurring business — a meaningful focus in our approach to the sector. We continue to believe that this company could be well positioned for a prosperous 2009 and beyond.
 
During the year, the Healthcare sector detracted significantly from returns on both an absolute and relative basis. Key holdings included RTI Biologics, which performed poorly as the business was hampered by the macro environment.
 
While our relative overweighting in the financial services sector aided relative results, this benefit was more than offset by poor stock selection in the sector. We had particular trouble in the area of payments processing, which we had expected to be fairly recession-resistant. Declines in two large holdings — Cardtronics and TNS, Inc. — were primarily due to currency impacts and collateral damage from the consolidation and business failures in the financial services industry. In the case of Cardtronics, these troubles were compounded by the company’s self-

inflicted execution issues. We exited the TNS position during the fourth quarter as business conditions deteriorated too rapidly and currency headwinds were too severe to overcome. Entering the new year, we have positioned the Portfolio with an overweight position in the Financial Services sector, employing a barbell approach that balances investments in recurring revenue businesses such as RiskMetrics Group and CyberSource with exposure to more credit-sensitive investments such as PrivateBancorp and Stifel Financial.
 
During these challenging times, and always, we remain committed to our principles of investing in fast-growing, high-margin companies with unique proprietary advantages and strong management teams. While the stock market punished all sectors and styles in the fourth quarter, our style was clearly not rewarded on an absolute basis. Nonetheless, we have not changed our investment process and we believe that, once the economy recovers and investment horizons lengthen, our fundamental research will again be rewarded.
 
Above all, we are committed to focusing on our core expertise and investment process. As fellow investors in the strategy, we thank you for your long-term investment.
 
INVESCO Institutional (NA), Inc. (Small Cap Core Strategy) — Small Cap Core is an active small capitalization strategy designed to capture excess returns through Invesco Quantitative Strategies’ proprietary multi-factor stock selection model. We believe that relative returns are predictable based on certain fundamental and behavioral concepts.
 
To capture excess return, our process:
 
1.  Systematically evaluates stocks within their industry using four key investment concepts: Earnings Momentum, Price Trend, Management Action, and Relative Value.
 
2.  Constructs the Portfolio and manages risk to limit the impact of unintended beta, size, and industry biases, through an optimization technique that seeks to maximize expected return at a specified level of risk.
 
3. Quantifies and rigorously tests investment themes.
 
Portfolio management decisions to underweight Energy and transportation sectors contributed favorably to excess returns, while decisions to overweight the Consumer Services sector detracted from relative returns. While overall portfolio management activities during 2008 did not produce excess returns for the Portfolio, the stock selection model used to assess the attractiveness of stocks within industries contributed favorably to relative returns.
 
Stock selection contributed to positive relative performance. The largest contribution came from the Consumer Services Company CSG Systems International. Oil States International, an Energy company, detracted from excess returns. Despite the crisis in the Financial sector, investments in First Bancorp and Platinum Underwriters Holdings added to excess return. Some of the portfolio holdings that are exposed to the production side of the economy fared poorly as signs of economic contraction became increasingly evident. Investments in Terra Industries and Olympic Steel, both from the Basic Materials sector, reduced relative returns as did an investment in Tecumseh Products, an Industrial sector manufacturer.

2.  Constructs the Portfolio and manages risk to limit the impact of unintended beta, size, and industry biases, through an optimization technique that seeks to maximize expected return at a specified level of risk.
 
3.  Quantifies and rigorously tests investment themes.
 
While overall portfolio management activities during 2008 did not produce excess returns for the Portfolio, the stock selection model used to assess the attractiveness of stocks within industries contributed favorably to relative returns.
 
Stock selection contributed positively to excess returns as did decisions to hold stocks with lower than market betas. Exposure to stocks with historically higher relative strength detracted from returns. While our decisions regarding which stocks to overweight aided returns, stocks that were in the Portfolio’s benchmark and that were not held in the Portfolio lowered relative returns. Favorable return contributions came from holdings in CSG Systems International (Consumer Services sector), Stone Energy (Energy sector), and First Bancorp (Financial sector). Stocks detracting from returns include Blyth Inc. (Consumer sector), Graftech International (Industrials sector), and Tecumseh Products (Industrials sector).
 
Wellington Management Company, LLP — Our investment approach emphasizes bottom up stock selection. The Portfolio is constructed without regard to sector weights however, we do carefully consider diversification to limit risk. Relative out-performance was aided by strong stock selection within the Consumer Discretionary, Materials, and Energy sectors.
 
Within Consumer Discretionary, holdings in Cato, Choice Hotels, and Helen of Troy outperformed.
 
Materials holdings Compass Mineral and Zep were the Portfolio’s largest absolute contributors. Compass Mineral owns very long-lived reserves of salt in North America and England which are used for highway de-icing and consumer, agricultural, and industrial applications. The company also produces and markets sulfate of potash, a specialty fertilizer. Severe winter weather in the Midwest, as well as rapidly escalating potash prices, significantly increased the company’s earnings prospects for 2008. We trimmed our position over the period as escalating potash prices pushed the stock toward our target price.
 
The Portfolio’s largest relative contributor during the period was independent oil and gas exploration and production company, Whiting Petreoleum. The company benefited from favorable oil and gas pricing trends given its strong and growing reserve position and exploration potential. We trimmed the position during the third quarter on strength following the run-up in oil prices.
 
Stock selection in Industrials detracted from relative performance as a weakening economy contributed to price declines in several holdings including ACCO, Belden, AirTran, Albany, and Carlisle. Positive relative performance was also modestly offset by our underweight to and our security selection within the Financials sector.

Market Overview:
 
The fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 was the worst year for U.S. equities since 1931 and was a particularly difficult year for small cap growth managers, where fewer than 20% of managers beat the Russell 2000® Growth Index (Source: Merrill Lynch). The market began the year poorly, posting double digit negative returns in the first quarter as sub prime fears and the eventual collapse of Bear Stearns weighed on stocks. In fact, Energy was the only sector to post positive returns in that quarter. The Federal Reserve target interest rate began 2008 at 4.25%, down from 5.25% in September 2007.
 
By mid-year Energy continued its ascent as oil increased to over $140 per barrel. Energy stocks in the Russell 2000® Growth Index contributed 3.61% of the total second quarter benchmark return of 4.48%. There was also a large cap bias to the second quarter as investors fled to larger companies with less perceived risk. Managers that remained true to their small cap style were negatively impacted by this phenomenon. Credit concerns and unemployment accelerated and by the third quarter the government began debating the bailout bill. It also became clear that the credit fever was not limited to the U.S. but the global economy would also be roiled. Upon this development, the U.S. dollar surged, creating a tailwind for small cap stocks since small caps tend to have less international exposure.
 
Poor economic data accelerated into the end of year while the market managed to bottom on November 21st. This date marked what appears to be the early stages of sector and cyclical rotation, an event that we have been anticipating, where defensive sectors and stocks that had been outperforming begin to under-perform. After November 21st, the market rallied more than 20% as investors began the shift toward early cyclical stocks, oversold stocks, and companies likely to benefit from the infrastructure stimulus planned to begin in 2009.
 
Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Transamerica Partners Small Growth Portfolio returned (37.87%). By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell 2000® Growth Index, returned (38.54%).
 
Strategy Review:
 
The Portfolio is designed as a highly-diversified, equally-weighted portfolio. Our process is systematic and has been tested in both up and downward trending markets. Our investment process concentrates our focus on stocks that exhibit sustainable relative growth characteristics that we believe are paramount to future out-performance. In 2008, stock selection represented all of the alpha generation in the Portfolio beating the Russell 2000® Growth Index in seven out of ten sectors, with notable strength in Consumer Discretionary, Healthcare, and Materials sectors.
 
A significant contributor was Emergent Biosolutions (EBS). This biopharmaceutical company with the only FDA approved vaccine for Anthrax prevention received a large vaccine contract to increase strategic government stockpiles, essentially securing revenues through 2011. After the company demonstrated insider selling, the intent to raise equity, and exceptional out-performance, we exited our position.
 
In another example, software company EPIQ Systems (EPIQ) is benefiting from accelerating bankruptcies, including such high profile cases such as Lehman Brothers. The company services the legal profession with a

focus on corporate bankruptcy proceedings. Given this environment, we expect bankruptcies to escalate further, fueling strong earnings growth over the next couple of years, and we maintain a large position on that basis.
 
In the Energy sector, oil service company Hercules Offshore (HERO) was a detractor from performance in 2008 as it provides shallow water drilling rigs, inland barge rigs, and lift-boats to energy producers in the Gulf of Mexico. Production in the shallow water Gulf of Mexico is very sensitive to changes in commodity prices and as a result the stock sold off drastically.
 
Economic uncertainty is the topic of discussion at every turn and it is this uncertainty that keeps a lid on the market as bulls and bears jockey for position. We remain committed to our investment discipline, which once again prevailed in a very difficult market, and we are excited about the prospects for the Portfolio going forward.

Transamerica Partners International Equity Portfolio
 
Sub-advisors:
LSV Asset Management
Wellington Management Company, LLP
 
Market Environment:
 
LSV Asset Management — The fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 was the worst year for foreign stocks in the 38 year history of the MSCI EAFE Index (the “Index”), which fell 43.4% in U.S. dollar terms. A global economic slowdown and credit crisis impacted markets around the globe with every country in the Index falling sharply. Japan was the best performer with a return of (29.2%) in U.S. dollar terms while Ireland fell nearly 72%. The U.S. dollar strengthened against most currencies and added to the woes of U.S. dollar based investors. Stocks in the Index fell 40.3% in local currency terms indicating that an additional 3.1% of the total return was due to the currency effect of a stronger dollar.
 
Problems in the credit markets spread around the globe as what was perceived to be a U.S. sub-prime crisis impacted banks all over the planet. Even the largest bank in Iceland was impacted by the credit crisis and had to be rescued by its government. All over Europe, banks sought refuge with the same fury we saw here in the United States. At the same time, there was a global effort on the part of central banks to try and stabilize the financial system and re-instill confidence on the part of investors. There were several coordinated ’rate-cuts’ and multiple stimulus packages announced to try and reverse the downward economic spiral.
 
While it is too early to tell if these stimulus packages will work, one thing that is clear is that the bear market has created some amazing bargains in terms of stock prices. Many companies are trading at single digit price/earnings ratios and the overall market is trading at 1.3x book value. Clearly, corporate earnings are distressed, but stock prices are as well and opportunities to pick up quality companies at low multiples exist all over the world.
 
Wellington Management Company, LLP — The fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 was a difficult time for virtually all equity styles. Problems in the sub-prime mortgage market spread throughout the financial system, creating a full-blown liquidity/credit crisis that roiled global markets. The final two months of the fiscal year proved exceptionally tumultuous and were capped by an alarming series of events: the US government’s takeover of the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”), and American International Group, Inc. (“AIG”); the failure of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.; the distressed sales of the commercial banking franchises of Washington Mutual, Inc. and Wachovia Corporation; Bank of America Corporation’s acquisition of Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc.; and the conversion of investment banks, The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and Morgan Stanley, to commercial banks.
 
With an unprecedented level of coordination and cooperation, the US Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) presided over efforts to resuscitate credit markets and stabilize the financial system, culminating in the creation of the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”). An initial $350 billion was invested in nine large US financial institutions in an attempt to restore confidence in the system.
 
Concerns about inflation persisted through much of the fiscal year, fueled by record-high commodity prices. These worries were largely abated as the period came to a close, when slowing US demand and the weakening global economy caused oil and other commodities prices to drop. Over the year, the Fed lowered the fed funds rate from 4.25% to virtually 0.00%. The ongoing correction in the housing market, debt deflation, rising unemployment, and sluggish production and consumption patterns increasingly pointed to recession, as the effects of the credit crisis worked through the real economy.

Performance:
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Transamerica Partners International Equity Portfolio returned (49.94%). By comparison, its benchmark, the MSCI World Ex-US Index, returned (43.23%).
 
Strategy Review:
 
LSV Asset Management — LSV Asset Management is a quantitative value manager focused on building a diversified portfolio of stocks with attractive fundamentals. The Portfolio could be characterized as “deep value” in nature because LSV maintains below benchmark valuations metrics like price/cash flow, price/earnings, price/book and price/sales values. Stock selection and this style bias are the primary contributors to results over time since LSV takes only very small country or sector bets relative to a benchmark. LSV’s style is complementary to the other sub-advisor on the Portfolio.
 
For the year, LSV lagged the Portfolio’s benchmark by about 1%. Value stocks performed worse than growth stocks during the year, as the Portfolio’s benchmark lagged the MSCI World Ex-US Index by 0.7%. LSV’s deep value bias was the single largest detractor for the year. Low price/earnings multiple stocks performed worse than high price/earnings multiple stocks even within our ‘value’ benchmark. Our bias focusing on the cheaper stocks cost us around 3% for the year.
 
The single largest contributor (+65bp) for the year, relative to the benchmark, was The Royal Bank of Scotland Group (RBS) which declined sharply but was not owned in the Portfolio. RBS was a large position in the Portfolio’s benchmark and we were fortunate not to own that stock. The next largest contributors were NTT Docomo and Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corp. from Japan where we had overweights. However, we were also overweight in some of the auto companies which pared back results as that industry underperformed the market. Positions in Peugeot (France) and Nissan Motor (Japan) cost us more than 70bp relative to the Portfolio’s benchmark.
 
Wellington Management Company, LLP — Portfolio positioning is the result of fundamental, bottom up stock selection. As growth investors, we look for companies with improving fundamentals that are likely to exceed market expectations. We prefer to buy companies after we are able to confirm that fundamentals are getting better. Underperformance during the year was led by unfavorable stock selection in Financials, Consumer Discretionary, and Industrials.
 
Stock selection within Financials detracted from relative performance, particularly our positions in global financial services firm UBS, and United Kingdom based bank, Barclays. Both firms were negatively impacted by the global credit crisis. Shares of UBS declined on news that exposures to subprime loans were larger than expected which resulted in a dilutive capital raise.
 
Performance within Consumer Discretionary was hurt by our position in Arcandor. The German retailer was the Portfolio’s largest absolute and relative detractor during the reporting period. The company reduced its full year earnings guidance amid a challenging retail environment in Western Europe given the slowing economy. We eliminated our position on the expectation of further global weakness.
 
Within Industrials our capital goods holdings detracted from performance, particularly our positions in Suntech Power, Renewable Energy, and Hansen Transmissions. These alternative energy stocks were impacted by both falling oil prices and lower demand due to the global credit crisis.

The Portfolio benefited from sector allocation decisions, including a lower-than-benchmark weight to Materials and Energy and a higher-than-benchmark weight to the Healthcare sector. The Portfolio also benefited from an opportunistic cash position, which helped relative performance in a downward-trending market.

HB
  High Coupon Bonds (a.k.a. “IO-ettes”) represent the right to receive interest payments on an underlying pool of mortgages with similar features as those associated with IO securities. Unlike IO’s, the owner also has a right to receive a very small portion of principal. The high interest rates result from taking interest payments from other classes in the Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit (REMIC) trust and allocating them to the small principal of the HB class.
IO
  Interest Only represents the right to receive the monthly interest payment on an underlying pool of mortgage loans. The face amount shown represents the par value on the underlying pool. The yields on these securities generally exceed yields on other mortgage-backed securities because their cash flow patterns are more volatile and there is a greater risk that the initial investment will not be fully recouped. These securities are subject to accelerated principal paydowns as a result of prepayment or refinancing of the underlying pool of mortgage instruments. As a result, interest income may be reduced considerably.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization and Business
 
Transamerica Partners Portfolios (formerly, Diversified Investors Portfolios) (the “Series Portfolio”), a series trust organized on September 1, 1993 under the laws of the State of New York, is composed of eighteen different series that are, in effect, separate investment funds: the Money Market Portfolio, the High Quality Bond Portfolio, the Inflation-Protected Securities Portfolio, the Core Bond Portfolio, the Total Return Bond Portfolio, the High Yield Bond Portfolio, the Balanced Portfolio, the Large Value Portfolio (formerly, the Value & Income Portfolio), the Value Portfolio, the Large Core Portfolio (formerly, the Growth & Income Portfolio), the Large Growth Portfolio (formerly, the Equity Growth Portfolio), the Growth Portfolio (formerly, the Aggressive Equity Portfolio), the Mid Value Portfolio (formerly, the Mid-Cap Value Portfolio), the Mid Growth Portfolio (formerly, the Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio), the Small Value Portfolio (formerly, the Small-Cap Value Portfolio), the Small Core Portfolio (formerly, the Special Equity Portfolio), the Small Growth Portfolio (formerly, the Small-Cap Growth Portfolio), and the International Equity Portfolio (each a “Series”). The effective date of name changes for the Series Portfolio and selected Series was May 1, 2008. The Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees to issue an unlimited number of beneficial interests in each Series. Investors in a Series (e.g., investment companies, insurance company separate accounts and common and commingled trust funds) will each be liable for all obligations of that Series (and of no other Series).
 
The investment objectives of each Series are as follows:
 
Money Market — The Series’ goal is to provide liquidity and as high a level of income as is consistent with the preservation of capital.
 
High Quality Bond — The Series’ goal is to provide a high risk-adjusted return while focusing on the preservation of capital.
 
Inflation-Protected Securities — The Series’ goal is to seek maximum real return consistent with the preservation of capital.
 
Core Bond — The Series’ goal is to achieve maximum total return.
 
Total Return Bond — The Series’ goal is to maximize long-term total return.
 
High Yield Bond — The Series’ goal is to provide a high level of current income.
 
Balanced — The Series’ goal is to provide a high total investment return through investment in a broadly diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds and money market instruments.
 
Large Value — The Series’ goal is to provide a high level of current income through investment in a diversified portfolio of common stocks with relatively high current yield. Capital appreciation is a secondary goal.
 
Value — The Series’ goal is to provide capital appreciation. Dividend income is a secondary goal.
 
Large Core — The Series’ goal is to provide capital appreciation and current income.
 
Large Growth — The Series’ goal is to provide a high level of capital appreciation through investment in a diversified portfolio of common stocks with a potential for above-average growth in earnings. Current income is a secondary goal.
 
Growth — The Series’ goal is to provide a high level of capital appreciation primarily through investing in a diversified portfolio of common stocks.
 
Mid Value — The Series’ goal is to provide a high total investment return through investments primarily in a diversified portfolio of common stocks.
 
Mid Growth — The Series’ goal is to provide a high total investment return through investments primarily in a diversified portfolio of common stocks.

2. Significant Accounting Policies
 
     A. Security Valuation:
 
Short-term securities having remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. The amortized cost of a security is determined by valuing it at original cost and thereafter amortizing any discount or premium at a constant rate until maturity. Equity securities are valued at the official closing price or last sale price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded or at the last quoted bid price for securities in which there were no sales during the day or for unlisted securities. Portfolio securities listed on the NASDAQ National Market and NASDAQ Small Cap Market for which reliable market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price on that day, at the last sale price. Bonds and warrants are valued at the last available bid prices by an independent pricing service. Option contracts that are traded on commodities or securities exchanges are normally valued at the last mean price on the exchange on which they are traded; if mean prices are not available, the bid price will be used. If neither mean nor bid prices are available, a broker quote will be obtained. Futures contracts traded on commodities or securities exchanges are normally valued at the last closing price on the exchange on which they are traded. If last closing price is not available for futures contracts, a broker quote will be obtained. Swap agreements are normally valued by an independent pricing service. If the independent pricing service is not able to value a swap contract, that contract will be valued at bid price. If bid is not available, a broker quote will be obtained. When valuations are not readily available, securities will be valued at their fair market value as determined in good faith by Transamerica Asset Management, Inc.’s (“TAM”) Valuation Committee, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. Unlisted securities are valued at the last sales price provided by an independent pricing agent or the principal market maker.
 
Trading in securities on most foreign exchanges and over-the counter markets is normally completed before the close of the domestic market and may also take place on days when the domestic market is closed. Events or circumstances affecting the values of portfolio securities that occur between the closing of their principal markets and the time the net asset value is determined may be reflected in the calculation of net asset value when the investment advisor deems that the particular event or circumstance would materially affect its asset value. In accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees, all Series apply fair value pricing on a daily basis for all non-US and non-Canadian equity securities held in their portfolios by utilizing the quotations of an independent pricing service, unless the Series’ investment advisor determines that use of another valuation methodology is appropriate. The pricing service uses statistical analyses and quantitative models to adjust local market prices using factors such as subsequent movement and changes in the prices of indices, securities and exchange rates in other markets, in determining fair value each day.
 
The Series adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Standard No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”) on January 1, 2008. FAS 157 is designed to unify guidance for the measurement of fair value of all types of assets, including financial instruments, and certain liabilities, throughout a number of accounting standards. FAS 157 also establishes a hierarchy for measuring fair value in generally accepted

accounting principles and expands financial statement disclosures about fair value measurements that are relevant to the Series.
 
Various inputs are used in determining the value of each Series’ investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
 
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
 
Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
 
Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs (including the Series’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
 
The following is a summary of the fair valuations according to the inputs used to value each Series’ net assets as of December 31, 2008:

     B. Repurchase Agreements:
 
Each Series, along with other affiliated entities of the investment advisor, may enter into repurchase agreements with financial institutions deemed to be creditworthy by the Series’ investment advisor, subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase and the Series agreement to resell such securities at a mutually agreed upon price. Securities purchased subject to repurchase agreements are segregated at the custodian and, pursuant to the terms of the repurchase agreements, must have an aggregate market value greater than or equal to 102% for domestic securities and 105% for international securities of the repurchase price at all times. If the value of the underlying securities falls below the value of the repurchase price, the Series will require the seller to deposit additional collateral by the next business day. If the request for additional collateral is not met or the seller defaults on its repurchase obligation, the Series maintains the right to sell the underlying securities at market value and may claim any resulting loss against the seller. However, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the seller, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
 
     C. Foreign Currency Translation:
 
The accounting records of each Series are maintained in US dollars. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated to US dollars based on the prevailing exchange rates each business day. Income, expenses, purchases, and sales of investment securities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at prevailing exchange rates when accrued or incurred.
 
None of the Series isolated realized gains and losses attributable to changes in exchange rates from gains and losses that arise from changes in the market value of investments. Such fluctuations are included with net realized and unrealized gains or losses on securities. Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains and losses on disposition of foreign currencies and foreign currency forward and spot contracts, and the difference between the amount of investment income receivable and foreign withholding taxes payable recorded on each Series’ books and the US dollar equivalent of amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities (other than investments in securities) and foreign currency forward and spot contracts, resulting from changes in the prevailing exchange rates.
 
     D. Foreign Currency Forward, Spot, and Cross Currency Contracts:
 
Each Series, with the exception of the Money Market Series, may enter into foreign currency forward contracts, spot, and cross currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities or to hedge the currency exposure associated with those Series that participate in such contracts. A foreign currency forward contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. A spot contract is also an agreement to buy and sell a currency, but will settle within a week or less from the date it is entered into. The market value of a foreign currency forward, spot, or cross currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Foreign currency forward, spot, and cross currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Series as an unrealized foreign exchange gain

or loss. When a foreign currency forward, spot, or cross currency contract is extinguished, through delivery or by entering into another offsetting foreign currency forward, spot, or cross currency contract, the Series records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value of the contract at the time it was extinguished. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Series’ Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operations. In addition, the Series could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the US dollar.
 
As of December 31, 2008, the Inflation-Protected Securities Series, Core Bond Series, Total Return Bond Series, and Balanced Series each had outstanding foreign currency forward contracts as listed in Note 8.
 
     E. Written Options:
 
Each Series, with the exception of the Money Market Series, may write or purchase options for the purpose of either hedging its exposure to the market fluctuations of the portfolio, or an individual security position. When a Series writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Series is recorded as an asset and corresponding liability. The amount of the liability is adjusted daily to reflect the current market value of the written option and the change is recorded in a corresponding unrealized gain or loss account. These options are settled for cash and subject the Series to unknown risk of loss. The Series, however, are not subject to credit risk on written options, as the counterparty has already performed its obligation by paying the premium at the inception of the contract. When a written option expires on its stipulated expiration date, or when a closing transaction is entered into, the related liability is extinguished and the Series realizes a gain or loss contingent on whether the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premium received when the option was written.

     F. Futures Contracts:
 
Each Series, with the exception of the Money Market Series, may enter into futures contracts for the purpose of hedging its existing portfolio securities, or securities that the Series intends to purchase, against fluctuations in market value caused by changes in prevailing market or interest rates. During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by “marking to market” on a daily basis to reflect the daily market value of the contract.
 
Variation margin payments are received or made by each Series each day, depending upon the daily fluctuations in the market value of the underlying instrument. Each Series recognizes an unrealized gain or loss equal to the daily variation margin. When the contract is closed, the Series records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the basis in the contract.
 
Should market conditions move unexpectedly, the Series may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may realize a loss. The use of futures transactions involves the risk of imperfect correlation in movements in the price of futures contracts, interest rates, and the underlying hedged assets. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gains or losses reflected in the Series’ Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
 
Use of long futures contracts subjects the Series to risk of loss in excess of amounts shown on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities up to the notional value of the futures contracts. Use of short futures contracts subjects the Series to unlimited risk of loss. The Series may enter into futures contracts on exchanges or boards of trade. In that case, the exchange or board of trade acts as the counterparty to each futures transaction; therefore, the Series’ credit risk is limited to failure of the exchange or board of trade.

The Inflation-Protected Securities Series, Core Bond Series, Total Return Bond Series, Balanced Series, Large Core Series, and Small Core Series have segregated securities as collateral for their respective open futures contracts. The segregated securities are identified within each Series’ portfolio of investments. In addition, the Total Return Bond Series has segregated $1,979,276 of cash, and the Balanced Series has segregated $1,291,676 of cash as collateral for their respective open futures contracts.
 
     G. Swap Agreements:
 
Each Series, with the exception of the Money Market Series, may engage in various swap transactions including interest rate, currency exchange rate, equity index, credit default and total return swap agreements, for hedging purposes, or as alternatives to direct investments.
 
An interest rate swap involves a Series and another party, and each agrees to exchange interest earned with respect to a notional amount of principal. An interest rate swap typically involves the exchange of a fixed rate payment for a floating rate payment. A currency rate swap involves two parties who agree to sell each other a foreign currency and commit to exchanging the principal amount at a specified future date. An equity index swap represents an exchange of cash flow streams, one typically based on a reference interest rate; the other on the performance of a stock or stock market index. A credit default swap involves the payment of a premium by a buyer for protection against a specified credit risk or event, such as default. Should a default occur, the protection seller can either accept delivery of the defaulted security or pay the buyer a cash settlement. If a Series is a protection buyer and no event occurs, the Series may receive or recover nothing. If a series is a protection seller it will receive premium payments (if there is no event) and generally receives an upfront payment as well. A Series will only enter into credit default swaps with parties that meet certain levels of creditworthiness as assessed by the subadvisor. In a total return swap, one party receives interest payments on a referenced asset or index plus any capital gains or losses over the payment period, while the other receives a specified cash flow based on the same notional amount.
 
Swaps can expose a Series to credit or market risk due to unfavorable changes in interest rates or a change in value of underlying securities or indices. In addition, there is a possibility that there will not be a liquid market for the agreements, or that a counterparty may default on its obligation.
 
Premiums paid or received by a Series are recorded as unrealized appreciation/ (depreciation) in the Statement of Operations. Contracts are marked to market daily based on valuations supplied by a dealer or broker. Changes in value, including accruals of periodic amounts of interest to be paid or received on swaps, are reported as unrealized appreciation/(depreciation). A realized gain or loss is recorded upon payment or receipt of a periodic payment or termination of the swap agreements. Notional principal amounts are used to express the extent of involvement in these transactions, but the amounts potentially subject to credit risk are much smaller.
 
From time to time, a Series will receive short term, highly liquid investments as collateral pledged for various swap agreements from brokers.
 
At the year ended December 31, 2008, the Core Bond Series entered into interest rate swaps.

Each Series, with the exception of the Money Market Series, may sell securities short. A short sale is a transaction in which a Series sells securities it does not own, but has borrowed, in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities. The Series is obligated to replace the borrowed securities at the market price at the time of replacement. The Series’ obligation to replace the securities borrowed in connection with a short sale will be fully secured by collateral deposited with the custodian. In addition, the Series will consider the short sale to

be a borrowing by the Series that is subject to the asset coverage requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Short sales by the Series involve certain risks and special considerations. Possible losses from short sales differ from losses that could be incurred from a purchase of a security because losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested.
 
     I. Dollar Rolls:
 
Each Series, with the exception of the Money Market Series, may enter into dollar rolls (principally using TBA’s) in which the Series sells mortgage-backed securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously contracts to repurchase similar, but not identical, securities at an agreed-upon price on a fixed date. The Series accounts for such dollar rolls as purchases and sales and receive compensation as consideration for entering into the commitment to repurchase. The Series maintains liquid securities having a value not less than the repurchase price (including accrued interest) for such dollar rolls. The market value of the securities that the Series is required to purchase may decline below the agreed upon repurchase price of those securities.
 
The Core Bond Series, Total Return Bond Series and Balanced Series had TBA dollar rolls outstanding as of December 31, 2008, which are included in receivable for securities sold and payable for securities purchased on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
 
     J. Loan Participations/Assignments:
 
Each Series, with the exception of the Money Market Series, may purchase participations/assignments in commercial loans. Such indebtedness may be secured or unsecured. These investments may include standby financing commitments, including revolving credit facilities that obligate the Series to supply additional cash to the borrowers on demand. Loan participations/assignments involve risks of insolvency of the lending banks or other financial intermediaries. As such, the Series assumes the credit risks associated with the corporate borrowers and may assume the credit risks associated with the interposed banks or other financial intermediaries. The Series may be contractually obligated to receive approval from the agent banks and/or borrowers prior to the sale of these investments. Loan participations typically represent direct participation in loans to corporate borrowers, and generally are offered by banks or other financial institutions or lending syndicates. The Series may participate in such syndications, or can buy a portion of the loans, becoming part lenders. Loans are often administered by agent banks acting as agents for all holders. The agent banks administer the terms of the loans, as specified in the loan agreements. In addition, the agent banks are normally responsible for the collection of principal and interest payments from the corporate borrowers and the apportionment of these payments to the credit of all institutions that are parties to the loan agreements. Unless, under the terms of the loans or other indebtedness, a Series has direct recourse against the corporate borrowers, the Series may have to rely on the agent banks or other financial intermediaries to apply appropriate credit remedies against corporate borrowers.
 
  •  Unfunded Commitments:
 
At December 31, 2008, High Yield Bond Series had the following unfunded loan commitments which could be extended at the option of the borrower:

     K. Commission Recapture:
 
The subadvisors of certain Series, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, have elected to place security transactions of the Series with broker/dealers with which


186


 

 
TRANSAMERICA PARTNERS PORTFOLIOS

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
other Funds or Series advised by TAM have established a Commission Recapture Program. A Commission Recapture Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer from security transactions to a Series. In no event will commissions paid by the Series be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other Funds or Series advised by TAM or by any other party.
 
Recaptured commissions during the year ended December 31, 2008 are included in net realized gains on the Statement of Operations and are summarized as follows:
 
         
Series
  Commissions
 
Large Value

     L. Federal Income Taxes:
 
It is the Series’ policy to comply with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
 
Each Series may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. Each Series will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon their current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which they invest.
 
     M. Security Transactions and Investment Income:
 
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis (the date the order to buy or sell is executed). Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on investments. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis.
 
Purchases of TBA, when-issued or delayed delivery securities may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Interest income is not accrued until settlement date.
 
All of the net investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses from security transactions are determined on each valuation day and allocated pro rata among the investors in a Series at the time of such determination.
 
     N. Operating Expenses:
 
Each Series accounts separately for its assets, liabilities and operations. Expenses directly attributable to a Series are charged to that Series, while expenses attributable to all Series are allocated among all Series based on their relative net assets, or another methodology that is appropriate based on the circumstances.

     O. Restricted and Illiquid Securities:
 
Each Series is permitted to invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale or are illiquid. Restricted securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration. A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available market or if its valuation has not changed for a certain period of time. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at the current valuation may be difficult.
 
As of December 31, 2008, the Series had no investments in restricted securities other than 144A issues.
 
The following is the value and percentage of net assets of illiquid securities as of December 31, 2008:
 
                 
Series
  Amount   Percentage
 
Core Bond
  $ 1,709,911       0.10 %

     P. Other:
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
     Q. Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
 
The Series adopted FASB Staff Position FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4, “Disclosures about Credit Derivatives and Certain Guarantees: An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and FASB Interpretation No. 45 “the Amendment” on January 1, 2008. The Amendment requires enhanced disclosures regarding a Series’ credit derivatives holdings, including credit default swaps, credit spread options and hybrid financial instruments containing embedded credit derivatives. Management assessed and determined that there is no impact of the Amendment on the Series’ Financial Statements.
 
In addition, FASB issued Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The standard is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. Management is currently in the process of determining the impact on the Series’ Financial Statements.
 
     R. Recent Events:
 
Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc (“Lehman”) filed for bankruptcy on September 15, 2008. The Core Bond Series still has a payable balance to Lehman resulting from the settled TBA securities in the amount of $372,616.

Certain trustees and officers of the Series Portfolio and of the funds that invest in the Series Portfolio are also directors, officers or employees of the Advisor or its affiliates. None of the non-independent trustees so affiliated receive compensation for services as trustees of the Series Portfolio or the funds that invest in the Series Portfolio. Similarly, none of the Series Portfolio officers receive compensation from the Series Portfolio. Aggregate remuneration earned by non-affiliated trustees of the Series Portfolio from the Series Portfolio for the year ended December 31, 2008 amounted to $288,526.
 
Each eligible non-affiliated trustee may elect participation in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such trustees may defer payment of all or a portion of their total fees earned as a Series trustee. Each trustee who is a participant in the Plan may elect that the earnings, gains or losses credited to his/her deferred fee amounts be determined based on a deemed investment in investment options in Transamerica Partners Institutional Funds Group, Transamerica Institutional Asset Allocation Funds, Class A shares of any series of Transamerica Funds and/or funds of Transamerica Investors, Inc.
 
4. Securities Lending
 
Each Series may lend its securities to certain member firms of the New York Stock Exchange. The loans are collateralized at all times with cash or securities with a market value at least 102% for domestic securities and 105% for international securities of the market value of the securities on loan. Any deficiencies or excess of collateral must be delivered or transferred by the member firms no later than the close of business on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Series may bear the risk of delay in recovery or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially.
 
During the term of the loan, a Series receives payments from borrowers equivalent to the dividends, interest, and any other distributions that would have been earned on securities lent while simultaneously seeking to earn income on the investment of cash collateral in accordance with investment guidelines contained in the Securities Lending Agreement. For loans secured by cash, each Series retains the interest on cash collateral investments

but is required to pay the borrower a rebate for the use of the cash collateral. For loans secured by collateral other than cash, the borrower pays a securities loan fee to the lending agent.
 
Any compensation (net of related expenses) received by a Series for lending its securities, as described above, is reported on its respective Statement of Operations. This includes interest income on short-term investments purchased with cash collateral received.

6. Legal and Regulatory Matters
 
On January 15, 2009 the Transamerica Partners Large Value Portfolio and Transamerica Partners Inflation-Protected Securities Portfolio (the “Funds””) were formally dismissed as defendants in an adversary proceeding instituted on December 12, 2003 by Enron Corp. (“Enron””)in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. Enron had sought to avoid and recover from all defendants, including the Funds, sums that Enron alleged it had transferred to defendants for the purpose of prepaying certain commercial paper issued by Enron (the “Notes”) and held by the defendants prior to the filing by Enron for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). Enron claimed that the defendants were liable for these transfers as preferential transfers or as fraudulent transfers under the Bankruptcy Code. The sale by the Inflation-Protected Securities Portfolio of approximately $2.4 million of the Notes on or about October 30, 2001 and the sale by the Large Value Portfolio of approximately $10.3 million of the Notes on or about October 30, 2001 were in dispute. On September 21, 2008, the case brought against the Funds was settled during mediation with the Enron Creditors Recovery Corporation. The settlement has been approved by the Court and the Funds have been dismissed with prejudice from the adversary proceeding.

7. Concentrations and Indemnifications
 
Some Series may have elements of risk not typically associated with investments in the United States of America due to concentrated investments in a limited number of countries or regions, which may vary throughout the year. Such concentrations may subject the Series to additional risks resulting from political or economic conditions in such countries or regions and the possible imposition of adverse governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions could cause the securities and their markets to be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of comparable US securities.
 
As December 31, 2008, the Value Series and Mid Value Series invested approximately 13.36% and 10.38% respectively, of their portfolios in issuers outside the United States.
 
As of December 31, 2008, substantially all of the International Equity Series’ net assets consist of securities of issuers that are domiciled in foreign countries. Changes in currency exchange rates will affect the value of, and investment income from, such securities.
 
As of December 31, 2008, the International Equity Series invested approximately 10.93%, 19.55% and 21.43%, respectively, of its portfolio in issuers in France, Japan and United Kingdom, respectively.
 
The ability of the issuers of debt, asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities to meet their obligations may be affected by the economic and political developments in a specific industry or region. The value of asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities can be significantly affected by changes in interest rates or rapid principal payments including prepayments.
 
Credit risk is measured by the loss a Series would record if its counter-parties failed to perform pursuant to the terms of their obligations to the Series. Since certain Series enters into various types of debt obligations including private placements, swap agreements, forward currency contracts, spot contracts, forward commitments and over-the-counter options, credit exposure exists with counterparties.
 
In the normal course of business, the Series Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Series Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Series Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Series Portfolio expects the risk of loss to be remote.
 
8. Foreign Currency Forward, Spot and Cross Currency Contracts
 
At December 31, 2008, the Inflation-Protected Securities Series, Core Bond Series, Total Return Bond Series and Balanced Series had entered into foreign currency forward, spot and cross currency contracts which contractually obligate each portfolio to deliver/receive currency at specified future dates.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Trustees and Owners of Beneficial Interests of the Transamerica Partners Portfolios:
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Money Market Portfolio, High Quality Bond Portfolio, Inflation-Protected Securities Portfolio, Core Bond Portfolio, Total Return Bond Portfolio, High Yield Bond Portfolio, Balanced Portfolio, Large Value Portfolio, Value Portfolio, Large Core Portfolio, Large Growth Portfolio, Growth Portfolio, Mid Value Portfolio, Mid Growth Portfolio, Small Value Portfolio, Small Core Portfolio, Small Growth Portfolio and International Equity Portfolio (constituting the Transamerica Partners Portfolios, hereafter referred to as the “Portfolios”) at December 31, 2008, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Portfolios’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2008 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

TRANSAMERICA PARTNERS PORTFOLIOS
SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT — INITIAL REVIEW AND APPROVAL

December 31, 2008
(Unaudited)
 
At a special meeting of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Transamerica Partners Portfolios (the “Portfolio Trust”) held on December 18, 2008, the Board reviewed and considered proposed new investment sub-advisory agreements between Transamerica Asset Management, Inc. (“TAM”) and the following sub-advisors, and series of the Portfolio Trust (the “Portfolios”): Thornburg Investment Management, Inc. for Transamerica Partners International Equity Portfolio and Aronson+Johnson+Ortiz, LP for Transamerica Partners Large Value Portfolio (each of the foregoing sub-advisors is referred to as a “Sub-Advisor” and collectively the Sub-Advisors).
 
Following their review and consideration, the Trustees determined that the new investment sub-advisory agreements (the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”) would enable investors in the Portfolios to obtain high quality services at a cost that is appropriate, fair, and in the best interests of investors. The Board also approved the Sub-Advisory Agreements with the Sub-Advisors with respect to the Portfolios for a two-year period following a presentation by TAM. In reaching their decision, the Trustees requested and obtained from TAM and the Sub-Advisors such information as they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the Sub-Advisory Agreements, including information about fees and performance of comparable funds managed by the Sub-Advisors. The Trustees also carefully considered information they had previously received from TAM as part of their regular oversight of the Portfolios, as well as comparative fee, expense, and performance information prepared by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of mutual fund performance and fee and expense information, and profitability data prepared by management. In considering the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Trustees evaluated a number of considerations that they believed, in light of the legal advice furnished to them by independent legal counsel and their own business judgment, to be relevant.
 
The Board members evaluated all information available to them on a Portfolio-by-Portfolio basis, and their determinations were made separately in respect of each Portfolio. They based their decisions on the following considerations, among others, although they did not identify any consideration or particular information that was controlling of their decisions:
 
Approval of New Sub-Advisory Agreement for Transamerica Partners International Equity Portfolio.
 
As noted above, during the six-month period ended December 31, 2008, TAM appointed a new Sub-Advisor, with the approval of the Board, for Transamerica Partners International Equity Portfolio. At a special meeting held on December 18, 2008, the Board considered (i) the termination of Wellington Management Company, LLP (“Wellington”) and LSV Asset Management (“LSV”) as Sub-Advisors to the Portfolio and (ii) the appointment of Thornburg Investment Management, Inc. (“Thornburg”) as replacement Sub-Advisor. The Board authorized TAM to terminate the Sub-Advisory Agreements with Wellington and LSV. The Board also approved the Sub-Advisory Agreement with Thornburg with respect to the Portfolio for an initial two-year period (the “Thornburg Sub-Advisory Agreement”) following a presentation by TAM. Discussed below are some of the material factors considered by the Board.
 
TAM reviewed with the Board its search process and criteria for a replacement Sub-Advisor, including its desire to engage a Sub-Advisor with a proactive sell discipline. The Board considered information with respect to Thornburg and whether the Thornburg Sub-Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Portfolio, the Transamerica Partners Funds Group and Transamerica Partners Funds Group II investing in the Portfolio, and the Portfolio’s other investors. As part of their deliberations, the Board took into account the nature and quality of the anticipated services to be provided by Thornburg and reviewed and discussed information regarding Thornburg’s fees. The Board compared Thornburg’s relative value composite performance to that of Transamerica Partners International Equity’s composite performance calculated gross of fees and the MSCI ACWI ex-US Index and MSCI World ex-US Equity Index. The Board noted that Thornburg’s composite performance exceeded that of Transamerica Partners International Equity’s composite performance and the MSCI ACWI ex-US Index and MSCI World ex-US Equity Index over the past 1-, 2- and 3-year periods ended September 30, 2008.

TRANSAMERICA PARTNERS PORTFOLIOS
SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT — INITIAL REVIEW AND APPROVAL (Continued)

December 31, 2008
(Unaudited)
 
The Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the senior personnel of Thornburg and the portfolio management team that would be primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Portfolio. The Board noted that TAM, and not the Portfolio, will pay the sub-advisory fee to Thornburg. The Board considered that at current asset levels the sub-advisory fee paid under the Sub-Advisory Agreement with Thornburg was higher than the sub-advisory fee paid to Wellington and LSV. The Board also recognized, however, that the Thornburg Sub-Advisory Agreement would offer breakpoints and with the combining of assets from the Transamerica Thornburg International Value, a series of Transamerica Funds, would result in lower fees overall paid by TAM to Thornburg. The Board also took into account Management’s statements that the relationship with Thornburg in the Transamerica Thornburg International Value Fund was going well and that there were no compliance or other issues to report.
 
Based upon its review and the representations made to it and after consideration of the above factors, and such other factors and information as it deemed relevant, the Board, including the independent members of the Board appearing in person, unanimously approved the Thornburg Sub-Advisory Agreement.
 
No single factor reviewed by the Board was identified as the principal factor in determining whether to approve the Thornburg Sub-Advisory Agreement, and each Board member likely attributed different weight to the various factors.
 
Approval of New Sub-Advisory Agreement for Transamerica Partners Large Value Portfolio.
 
As noted above, during the six-month period ended December 31, 2008, TAM appointed a new Sub-Advisor, with the approval of the Board, for Transamerica Partners Large Value Portfolio. At a special meeting held on December 18, 2008, the Board considered considered (i) Management’s proposal to terminate AllianceBernstein L.P, (“AllianceBernstein”) and TCW Investment Management Company (“TCW”) as Sub-Advisors to the Portfolio and (ii) the appointment of Aronson+Johnson+Ortiz, LP (“AJO”) as replacement Sub-Advisor. The Board authorized TAM to terminate the Sub-Advisory Agreements with AllianceBernstein and TCW. The Board also approved the Sub-Advisory Agreement with AJO with respect to the Portfolio for an initial two-year period (the “AJO Sub-Advisory Agreement”) following a presentation by TAM. Discussed below are some of the material factors considered by the Board.
 
TAM reviewed with the Board its search process and criteria for a replacement Sub-Advisor, including its desire to engage a Sub-Advisor able to mitigate market volatility while providing an upside potential at the same time. The Board considered information with respect to AJO and whether the AJO Sub-Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Portfolio, the Transamerica Partners Funds Group and Transamerica Partners Funds Group II investing in the Portfolio, and the Portfolio’s other investors. As part of their deliberations, the Board took into account the nature and quality of the anticipated services to be provided by AJO and reviewed and discussed information regarding AJO’s fees. The Board compared AJO’s large cap-absolute value composite performance to that of AllianceBernstein and TCW’s large value composite, Transamerica Partners Portfolios Large Value performance and the Russell 1000® Value Index. The Board noted that AJO’s composite performance exceeded that of AllianceBernstein and TCW’s large value composite and the Russell 1000 Value Index over the past 1-, 2,- and 3-year periods ended September 30, 2008.
 
The Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the senior personnel of AJO and the portfolio management team that would be primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Portfolio. The Board noted that TAM, and not the Portfolio, will pay the sub-advisory fee to AJO. The Board considered that at current asset levels the sub-advisory fee paid under the Sub-Advisory Agreements with AllianceBernstein and TCW was higher than the sub-advisory fee to be paid to AJO by TAM. The Board recognized that the AJO Sub-Advisory Agreement would offer breakpoints and with the combining of assets from the Transamerica Partners Large Core Portfolio, a series of the Portfolio Trust, would result in lower fees overall paid by TAM to AJO.
