AN INDIVIDUAL FLEXIBLE PREMIUM VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE POLICY

This prospectus describes the WRL Freedom Equity Protector^â, a flexible premium variable life insurance policy (the “Policy”). You can allocate your Policy’s cash value to the fixed account (which credits a specified guaranteed interest rate) and/or to the WRL Series Life Account, which invests through its subaccounts in portfolios of the Transamerica Series Trust - Initial Class (“Series Trust”), the Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Funds — Service Class 2 (the “Fidelity VIP Fund”), the ProFunds, the Access One Trust (“Access Trust”), the AllianceBernstein Variable Products Series Fund, Inc. (“AllianceBernstein”), and the Franklin Templeton Variable Insurance Product Trust (“Franklin Templeton”), (collectively, the “funds”). Please refer to the next page of this prospectus for the list of portfolios available to you under this Policy. We do not currently offer the Policy for sale to new purchasers.

If you already own a life insurance policy, it may not be to your advantage to buy additional insurance or to replace your policy with the Policy described in the prospectus. And it may not be to your advantage to borrow money to purchase the Policy or to take withdrawals from another policy you own to make premium payments under the Policy.

Prospectuses for the portfolios of the funds must accompany the prospectus. Certain portfolios may not be available in all states. Please read these documents before investing and save them for future reference.

An investment in the Policy is not a bank deposit. The Policy is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has not approved or disapproved these securities or passed upon the adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Policy Benefits/Risks Summary		*WRL Freedom Equity Protector*^{^®}

This summary describes the Policy’s important benefits and risks. More detailed information about the Policy appears later in this prospectus and in the Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”). For your convenience, we have provided a Glossary at the end of this prospectus that defines certain words and phrases used in this prospectus.

Policy Benefits

The Policy in General


•		The WRL Freedom Equity Protector^â is an individual flexible premium variable life insurance policy. The Policy gives you the potential for long-term life insurance coverage with the opportunity for tax-deferred cash value accumulation. The Policy’s cash value will increase or decrease depending on the investment performance of the subaccounts, the premiums you pay, the fees and charges we deduct, the interest we credit to the fixed account, and the effects of any Policy transactions (such as transfers, loans and partial withdrawals). Because returns are not guaranteed, the Policy is not suitable as a short-term savings vehicle.


•		The Policy is designed to be long-term in nature in order to provide significant life insurance benefits for you. However, purchasing this Policy involves certain risks. You should purchase the Policy only if you have the financial ability to keep it in force for a substantial period of time. You should consider the Policy in conjunction with other insurance you own. There may be adverse consequences should you decide to surrender your Policy early, such as payment of a surrender charge that applies during the first 15 Policy years.

•

Fixed Account. You may place money in the fixed account where it earns at least 4% annual interest. We may declare higher rates of interest, but are not obligated to do so. The fixed account is part of our general account. The fixed account is not available if your Policy was issued in the State of New Jersey.


•		Separate Account. You may direct the money in your Policy to any of the subaccounts of the WRL Series Life Account. Each subaccount invests exclusively in one of the portfolios listed on the cover of this prospectus. Money you place in a subaccount is subject to investment risk and its value will vary each day according to the investment performance of the portfolios in which the subaccounts invest.


•		Supplemental Benefits (Riders). Supplemental riders are available under the Policy. We deduct charges for these riders from a Policy’s cash value as part of the monthly deductions. These riders may not be available in all states.

Flexible Premiums

•

You select a premium payment plan but the plan is flexible — you are not required to pay premiums according to the plan. You can change the frequency and amount, within limits, and can skip premium payments. Unplanned premiums may be made, within limits. Premium payments must be at least $50.


•		You increase your risk of lapse (i.e., having your Policy terminate without value) if you do not regularly pay premiums at least as large as the current minimum monthly guarantee premium. Under certain circumstances, extra premiums may be required to prevent lapse. Please refer to the section entitled “Policy Lapse and Reinstatement” for further information about payment of additional premium to prevent Policy lapse.


•		Once we deliver your Policy, the free-look period begins. You may return the Policy during this period and receive a refund. Please refer to the section entitled “Canceling a Policy” for a description of the free-look policy.

Variable Death Benefit


•		If the insured dies while the Policy is in force, we will pay a death benefit to the beneficiary(ies), subject to applicable law and the terms of the Policy. The amount of the death benefit depends on the specified amount of insurance you select, the death benefit option you chose, and any additional insurance provided by riders you purchase.

•

Choice Among Death Benefit Options. You must choose one of two death benefit options. We offer the following:

•

Option A is the greater of:

			> the current specified amount, or

			> a specified percentage, multiplied by the Policy’s cash value on the date of the insured’s death.

•

Option B is the greater of:

			> the current specified amount, plus the Policy’s cash value on the date of the insured’s death, or

			> a specified percentage, multiplied by the Policy’s cash value on the date of the insured’s death.

We will reduce the death benefit proceeds by any outstanding loan amount and any due and unpaid charges. We will increase the death benefit proceeds by any additional insurance benefits you add by rider and any interest you paid in advance on any loan for the period between the date of death and the next Policy anniversary.

•

Under current tax law, the death benefit should generally be U.S. federal income tax free to the beneficiary. Other taxes, such as estate taxes, may apply.

•

Change in Death Benefit Option and Specified Amount. After the third Policy year and each Policy year thereafter, you may change the death benefit option and increase or decrease the specified amount. A decrease in specified amount is limited to no more than 20% of the specified amount before the decrease. The new specified amount cannot be less than the minimum specified amount as shown in your Policy.

No Lapse Period Guarantee

•

We guarantee that your Policy will not lapse until the no lapse date shown on your Policy schedule page, so long as on any Monthiversary you have paid total premiums (minus any cash withdrawals and minus any outstanding loan amount) that equal or exceed the sum of the minimum monthly guarantee premiums in effect for each month since the Policy date up to and including the current month. If you take a cash withdrawal or a loan, or if you increase or decrease your specified amount, or if you add, increase or decrease a rider, you may need to pay additional premiums in order to keep the no lapse period guarantee in effect.

Cash Value

•

The cash value is the sum of the Policy’s value in the subaccounts and the fixed account (including any amount held in the loan reserve account) and is the starting point for calculating important values under the Policy, such as net surrender value and the death benefit. There is no guaranteed minimum cash value. The Policy may lapse if you do not have sufficient cash value in the Policy to pay the monthly deductions, the surrender charge and/or any outstanding loan amount(s) (including interest you owe on any Policy loan(s)).


•		The Policy will not lapse during the no lapse period so long as you have paid sufficient premiums. Please see the section entitled “No Lapse Period Guarantee” for a complete description of the no lapse period.

Transfers


•		You can transfer cash value among the subaccounts and the fixed account. You currently may make transfer requests in writing to our mailing address, by telephone or by fax to our administrative office, or electronically through our website.


•		Except as listed below, we charge a $10 transfer processing fee for each transfer after the first 12 transfers in a Policy year.


•		Dollar cost averaging and asset rebalancing programs are available. Transfers under each of these programs are treated as transfers for purposes of assessing the transfer charge.


•		Each Policy year, the Policy allows a cumulative transfer out of the fixed account of the greater of up to 25% of the amount in the fixed account, or the amount transferred out the previous Policy year. Currently, we do not, but reserve the right to, limit the number of transfers out of the fixed account to one per Policy year. If we modify or stop this current practice, we will notify you at the time of your transfer.

•		Transfers resulting from loans or the exercise of conversion rights, or due to reallocation of each value immediately after the reallocation date, are currently not treated as transfers for the purpose of assessing the transfer charge.

•		Transfers via the Internet are not treated as transfers for the purpose of assessing the transfer charge.

•		Transfers between the ProFunds and/or Access Trust subaccounts are not treated as transfers for the purpose of assessing the transfer charge.


•		We may impose restrictions on the transfer privilege. See the discussion of our policy with regard to market timing (including transfers), and the costs and risks to you that can result from programmed, large, frequent, or short-term transfers in the section entitled “Disruptive Trading and Market Timing — Statement of Policy” in this prospectus.

Loans

•		After the first Policy year (as long as your Policy is in force), you may take a loan against the Policy up to 90% of the net surrender value. We may permit a loan before the first anniversary for Policies issued pursuant to 1035 Exchanges. The minimum loan amount is generally $500.

•		We currently charge 5.2% interest annually. The interest will be charged in advance each year on any outstanding loan amount. The rates charged may vary by Policy date and state.

•		To secure the loan, we transfer an amount equal to your loan from your cash value to a loan reserve account. The loan reserve account is part of the fixed account. We will credit the amount in the loan reserve with interest at an effective annual rate of at least 4.0%.

•		After the 10^th Policy year, on all amounts you have borrowed, we currently credit interest to part of the cash value in excess of the premiums paid less cash withdrawals and less any outstanding loan amount at an interest rate equal to the interest rate we charge on the total loan. The remaining portion, equal to the cost basis, is currently credited an effective annual rate of 4.75%. The rates credited may vary by Policy date.

•		Federal income taxes and a penalty tax may apply to loans you take against the Policy. The federal tax consequences of loans with preferred rates are uncertain and may have adverse tax consequences.

Cash Withdrawals and Surrenders

•		You may take one withdrawal of cash value per Policy year after the first Policy year.

•		The amount of the withdrawal may be limited to:


			> at least $500; and


			> no more than 10% of the net surrender value.

•		We will deduct a processing fee equal to $25 or 2% of the amount you withdraw (whichever is less) from the withdrawal, and we will pay you the balance.

•		A cash withdrawal will reduce the death benefit by at least the amount of the withdrawal. We will not impose a surrender charge when the specified amount is decreased as a result of taking a cash withdrawal.

•		You may fully surrender the Policy at any time before the insured’s death or the maturity date. Life insurance coverage will end upon the full surrender of the Policy. You will receive the net surrender value (cash value minus surrender charge, minus any outstanding loan amount, plus any interest paid in advance on the loan for the period between the date of surrender and the next Policy anniversary). The surrender charge will apply during the first 15 Policy years. The surrender charge may be significant. You may receive little or no net surrender value if you surrender your Policy in the early Policy years.

•		A cash withdrawal will reduce the cash value, so it will increase the risk that the Policy will lapse. A cash withdrawal may also increase the risk that the no lapse period will not remain in effect.

•		Federal income taxes and a penalty tax may apply to cash withdrawals and surrenders.

Tax Benefits

We intend the Policy to satisfy the definition of life insurance under the Internal Revenue Code so that the death benefit generally should be excludible from the taxable income of the beneficiary. If your Policy is not a Modified Endowment Contract (“MEC”), you should not be deemed in receipt of any taxable gains in cash value until withdrawals and surrenders exceed your tax basis in the Policy or other distributions are made as described in the “Federal Income Tax Considerations” section in this prospectus. A MEC is a special class of life insurance under tax code. Unlike traditional insurance, funds that are withdrawn from a MEC in the form of policy loans, cash withdrawals, surrenders, assignments, and

pledges are treated as gross income to the policy owner, to the extent of gain in the Policy, and therefore are subject to taxation. If your Policy is a MEC, you will be taxed on any gains in cash value when you take a withdrawal or a policy loan, or assign, pledge or surrender the Policy. Transfers between the subaccounts are not taxable transactions.

Policy Risks

Risk of an Increase in Current Fees and Expenses

Certain fees and expenses currently are assessed at less than their guaranteed maximum levels. In the future, we may increase these current charges up to the guaranteed (that is, maximum) levels. If fees and expenses are increased, you may need to increase the amount and/or frequency of premiums to keep the Policy in force.

Investment Risks

If you invest your Policy’s cash value in one or more subaccounts, then you will be subject to the risk that investment performance of the subaccounts will be unfavorable and that the cash value in your Policy will decrease. In addition, we deduct Policy fees and charges from your cash value, which can significantly reduce your cash value. During times of poor investment performance, this deduction will have an even greater impact on your cash value. You could lose everything you invest and your Policy could lapse without value, unless you pay additional premiums. If you allocate premiums to the fixed account, then we credit your fixed account value with a declared rate of interest. You assume the risk that the interest rate on the fixed account may decrease, although it will never be lower than a guaranteed minimum annual effective rate of 4%.

Risks of Managing General Account Assets

In addition to your fixed account allocations, general account assets are used to support the payment of the death benefit under the Contracts. To the extent that Western Reserve is required to pay you amounts in addition to your contract value under the death benefit, such amounts will come from general account assets. You should be aware that the general account is exposed to the risks normally associated with a portfolio of fixed-income securities, including interest rate, option, liquidity and credit risk. The Company’s financial statements contained in the Statement of Additional Information include a further discussion of risks inherent within the general account investments.

Risk of Lapse

Your Policy contains a no lapse period guarantee. Your Policy will not lapse before the no lapse date stated in your Policy, as long as you pay sufficient minimum guarantee premiums. If you do not pay sufficient premiums, you will automatically lose the no lapse period guarantee and you will increase the risk that your Policy will lapse.

You will lessen the risk of lapse of your Policy if you keep the no lapse period guarantee in effect during the first three Policy years. Before you take a cash withdrawal, loan, increase or decrease the specified amount or add, increase or decrease a rider, you should consider carefully the effect it will have on the no lapse period guarantee.

If you take a cash withdrawal or Policy loan, if you increase or decrease the specified amount, or if you add, increase or decrease a rider, you will increase the risk of losing the no lapse period guarantee. We deduct the total amount of your withdrawals, any outstanding loan amount from your premiums paid when we determine whether your premium payments are high enough to keep the no lapse period guarantee in effect.

If you change death benefit options, increase or decrease the specified amount, or add or increase a rider, we will adjust the amount of your minimum monthly guarantee premium.

After the no lapse period, your Policy may lapse if loans, cash withdrawals, the monthly deductions, and insufficient investment returns reduce the net surrender value to zero. The Policy will

enter a grace period if on any Monthiversary the net surrender value (that is, the cash value minus the surrender charge, and minus any outstanding loan amount, plus any interest you paid in advance on the loan between the date of surrender and the next Policy anniversary) is not enough to pay the monthly deductions due.

A Policy lapse may have adverse tax consequences.

If your Policy lapses, we may allow you to reinstate this Policy within five years after it has lapsed (and before the maturity date), subject to underwriting.

Tax Risks (Income Tax and MEC)

We expect that the Policy will generally be deemed a life insurance contract under federal tax law, and that the death benefit paid to the beneficiary will generally not be subject to federal income tax.

Depending on the total amount of premiums you pay, the Policy may be treated as a modified endowment contract (“MEC”) under federal tax laws. Unlike traditional insurance, if a Policy is treated as a MEC, cash withdrawals, surrenders, assignments, pledges and loans will be treated first as distributions of gain that are taxable as ordinary income, and treated as tax-free recovery of the owner’s basis on the Policy after all gain has been distributed. In addition, a 10% penalty tax may be imposed on the taxable portion of cash withdrawals, surrenders, assignments, pledges and loans taken before you reach age 59 ¹/2. If a Policy is not treated as a MEC, partial surrenders, assignments, pledges and withdrawals will not be subject to tax to the extent of your basis in the Policy. Amounts withdrawn in excess of your basis in the Policy, while subject to tax as ordinary income, will not be subject to a 10% penalty tax. Also, if your Policy is not a MEC, loans, assignments and pledges are not taxable when made although they may be taxable on the lapse or surrender of the Policy. You should consult a qualified tax advisor for assistance in all tax matters involving your Policy.

Loan Risks

A Policy loan, whether or not repaid, will affect cash value over time because we subtract the amount of the loan from the subaccounts and the fixed account and place that amount in the loan reserve as collateral. We then credit a fixed interest rate at an effective annual rate of not less than 4.0% to the loan collateral. As a result, the loan collateral does not participate in the investment results of the subaccounts and may not continue to receive the current interest rates credited to the unloaned portion of the fixed account. The longer the loan is outstanding, the greater the effect is likely to be. Depending on the investment results of the subaccounts and the interest rates credited to the fixed account, the effect could be favorable or unfavorable.

We also currently charge interest on Policy loans at a rate of 5.2% to be paid in advance. Interest charged is added to the amount of the loan to be repaid.

A Policy loan will make it more likely that a Policy would lapse. A Policy loan will increase the risk that the no lapse period will not remain in effect. There is also a risk that the Policy will lapse if the loan, insurance charges and unfavorable investment experience reduce your net surrender value when the no lapse period guarantee is no longer in effect. Assuming Policy loans have not already been subject to tax as distributions, a significant tax liability could arise when the lapse occurs. Anyone considering using the Policy as a source of tax-free income by taking out Policy loans should consult a qualified tax advisor about the risks inherent in such a strategy before purchasing the Policy.

If the Policy is not a MEC and lapses or is surrendered while a loan is outstanding, you will realize taxable income equal to the lesser of the gain in the Policy or the sum of the excess of the loan balance (including accrued interest) and any cash received on surrender over your basis in the Policy. If the Policy is a MEC or becomes a MEC within two years of taking a loan, the amount of the loan will be taxed as if it were a withdrawal from the Policy.

If the Policy lapses or terminates due to volatility in the investment performance of the underlying portfolios or another reason, you may incur tax consequences at an unexpected time.

You should consult with your own qualified tax advisor to apply the law to your particular circumstances.

Portfolio Risks

A comprehensive discussion of the risks of each portfolio may be found in each portfolio’s prospectus. Please refer to the prospectuses for the portfolios for more information.

There is no assurance that any portfolio will achieve its stated investment objective.

Fee Tables

The following tables describe the fees and expenses that you will pay when buying, owning and surrendering the Policy. If the amount of a charge depends on the personal characteristics of the insured or the owner, then the fee table lists the minimum and maximum charges we assess under the Policy, and the fees and charges of a representative insured with the characteristics set forth below. These charges may not be representative of the charges you will pay.

The first table describes the fees and expenses that you will pay when buying the Policy, paying premiums, making cash withdrawals from the Policy, surrendering the Policy, or transferring Policy cash value among the subaccounts and the fixed account.


Transaction Fees
Charge	When Charge is Deducted	Amount Deducted
		Guaranteed Charge	Current Charge¹
Premium Charges	Upon payment of each premium
Premium Expense Charge		First 10 Policy years = 6.0% of each premium payment; and 2.5% of premiums in Policy years 11+	First 10 Policy years = 6.0% of each premium payment; and 2.5% of premiums in Policy years 11+
Premium Collection Charge		$2.00 per premium payment	$2.00 per premium payment
Cash Withdrawal Charge²	Upon withdrawal	2.0% of the amount withdrawn, not to exceed $25	2.0% of the amount withdrawn, not to exceed $25



¹		The Company reserves the right at any time to change the current charge but never to a level that exceeds the guaranteed charge.


²		When we incur the expense of expedited delivery of your partial withdrawal or complete surrender payment, we currently assess the following additional charges: $20 for overnight delivery ($30 for Saturday delivery); and $25 for wire service. You can obtain further information about these charges by contacting our administrative office.

Terminal Illness Accelerated Death Benefit Rider⁸	When rider is exercised	Discount Factor	Discount Factor


³		The surrender charge is equal to the sum of the Deferred Issue Charge and the Deferred Sales Charge multiplied by the Surrender Charge Percentage. The Deferred Issue Charge component of the surrender charge is assessed on the initial specified amount stated in your Policy and any later increase in specified amount in effect at the time of surrender. The Deferred Sales Charge component of the surrender charge is based upon the issue age and gender of each individual insured, and the total premiums paid up to and in excess of the guideline premium shown in your Policy. The Surrender Charge Percentage varies with the insured’s issue age, gender, and number of years the Policy has been in force. The Surrender Charge Percentage on a Policy where a male insured’s issue age is less than 66 (and a female insured’s issue age is under 71), is 100% for the first 10 Policy years then decreases at the rate of 20% each Policy year until it reaches zero at the end of the 15^th Policy year. For a Policy where a male insured’s issue age is greater than 65 (and a female insured’s issue age is greater than 70), the Surrender Charge Percentage is 100% for the first several Policy years (3 to 9 depending on issue age and gender) and then declines to zero at the end of the 15^th Policy year. The surrender charges shown in the table may not be typical of the charges you will pay. You can obtain more detailed information about the surrender charges that apply to you by contacting your agent and requesting a personalized illustration.

⁴		This maximum charge is based on an insured with the following characteristics: male, age 55 at issue. This maximum charge may also apply to insureds with other characteristics.

⁵		The guideline premium is a designated premium that varies by issue age, gender, underwriting class, death benefit option, and specified amount. It is shown on your Policy schedule page.

⁶		This minimum charge is based on an insured with the following characteristics: male, age 75 at issue. This minimum charge may also apply to insureds with other characteristics

⁷		The first 12 transfers per Policy year are free.


⁸		We reduce the single sum benefit by a discount factor to compensate us for lost income due to the early payment of the death benefit. The discount rate is equal to the current Applicable Federal Interest Rate (4.09% for 2009) or the Policy loan interest rate, whichever is greater. Please see footnote 15 for a description of the loan rate. For a complete description of the Terminal Illness Accelerated Death Benefit Rider, please refer to the section entitled “Terminal Illness Accelerated Death benefit Rider” in this prospectus.

The table below describes the fees and expenses that you will pay periodically during the time that you own the Policy, not including portfolio fees and expenses.

⁹		Cost of insurance charges are based on each insured’s attained age, gender, underwriting class, specified amount, Policy year, and the net amount at risk. Cost of insurance rates generally will increase each year with the age of the insured. The cost of insurance rates shown in the table may not be representative of the charges you will pay. Your Policy’s schedule page will indicate the guaranteed cost of insurance charges applicable to your Policy. You can obtain more detailed information concerning your cost of insurance charges by contacting your agent.


¹⁰		We may place insureds in sub-standard underwriting classes with extra ratings that reflect higher mortality risks and that result in higher cost of insurance rates. If the insured possesses additional mortality risks, we may add a surcharge to the cost of insurance rates up to a total charge of $83.33 monthly per $1,000 of net amount at risk.


¹¹		This maximum charge is based on an insured with the following characteristics: male, age 75 at issue, standard tobacco underwriting class and in the 20^th Policy year. This maximum charge may also apply to insureds with other characteristics.

¹²		The net amount at risk equals the death benefit on a Monthiversary minus the cash value on such Monthiversary.


¹³		This minimum charge is based on an insured with the following characteristics: female, age 10 at issue and in the first Policy year. This minimum charge may also apply to insureds with other characteristics.


¹⁴		While a Policy loan is outstanding, loan interest is payable in advance on each Policy anniversary. If before the next Policy anniversary, there is a loan repayment, Policy lapse or surrender, Policy termination, or the insured’s death, we will refund the amount of any loan interest we charged in advance for the period between the date of any such occurrence above and the next Policy anniversary.

¹⁵		The Loan Interest Spread is the difference between the amount of interest we charge you for a loan and the amount of interest we credit to your loan reserve account. We charge you an annual interest rate on a Policy loan of 5.2% in advance (5.49% effective annual interest rate) on each Policy anniversary. We will also currently credit the amount in the loan reserve account with an effective annual interest rate of 4.75% (4.0% minimum guaranteed).

Range of Expenses for the Portfolios

The next table shows the lowest and highest total operating expenses charged by the portfolios during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. Expenses of the portfolios may be higher or lower in the future. More detail concerning each portfolio’s fees and expenses is contained in the prospectus for each portfolio.



	Lowest			Highest

Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses (total of all expenses that are deducted from portfolio assets, including management fees, 12b-1 fees, and other expenses)		0.35	%		2.49	%
Net Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses (total of all expenses that are deducted from portfolio assets, including management fees, 12b-1 fees, and other expenses, after contractual waiver of fees and expenses)³		0.35	%		1.68	%



¹		The portfolio expenses used to prepare this table were provided to Western Reserve by the funds. Western Reserve has not independently verified such information. The expenses shown are those incurred for the year ended December 31, 2008. Current or future expenses may be greater or less than those shown.



²		The table showing the range of expenses for the portfolios takes into account the expenses of several Transamerica Series Trust asset allocation portfolios that are “funds of funds.” A “fund of funds” portfolio typically allocates its assets, within predetermined percentage ranges, among certain other Transamerica Series Trust portfolios and certain portfolios of the Transamerica Funds (each such portfolio is an “Acquired Fund”). Each “fund of funds” has its own set of operating expenses, as does each of the portfolios in which it invests. In determining the range of portfolio expenses, Western Reserve took into account the information received from the Transamerica Series Trust on the combined actual expenses for each of the “fund of funds” and for the portfolios in which it invests. (The combined expense information includes the pro rata portion of the fees and expenses incurred indirectly by a Transamerica Series Trust asset allocation portfolio as a result of its investment in shares of one or more Acquired Funds.) See the prospectus for the Transamerica Series Trust for a presentation of the applicable Acquired Fund fees and expenses.



³		The range of Net Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses takes into account contractual arrangements for 27 portfolios that require a portfolio’s investment adviser to reimburse or waive portfolio expenses until April 30, 2010.

Western Reserve, the Separate Account, the Fixed Account and the Portfolios

Western Reserve

Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio, located at 570 Carillon Parkway, St. Petersburg, Florida 33716, is the insurance company issuing the Policy. We are obligated to pay all benefits under the Policy.

Financial Condition of the Company

Many financial services companies, including insurance companies, have been facing challenges in this unprecedented economic and market environment, and we are not immune to those challenges. It is important for you to understand the impact these events may have, not only on your cash value, but also on our ability to meet the guarantees under your Policy.

Assets in the Separate Account. You assume all of the investment risk for your cash value that is allocated to the subaccounts of the separate account. Your cash value in those subaccounts constitutes a portion of the assets of the separate account. These assets are segregated and insulated from our general account, and may not be charged with liabilities arising from any other business that we may conduct. See “The Separate Account.”

Assets in the General Account. You also may be permitted to make allocations to the fixed account, which is supported by the assets in our general account. See “The Fixed Account.” Any guarantees under the policy that exceed your cash value, such as those associated with any living benefit riders and any death benefit riders, are paid from our general account (and not the separate account). Therefore, any amounts that we may be obligated to pay under the Policy in excess of cash value are subject to our financial strength and claims paying ability and our long term ability to make such payments. The assets of the separate account, however, are also available to cover the liabilities of our general account, but only to the extent that the separate account assets exceed the separate account liabilities arising under the Policies supported by it.

We issue other types of insurance policies and financial products as well, and we also pay our obligations under these products from our assets in the general account.

Our Financial Condition. As an insurance company, we are required by state insurance regulation to hold a specified amount of reserves in order to meet all the contractual obligations of our general account to our policyowners. We monitor our reserves so that we hold sufficient amounts to cover actual or expected policy and claims payments. In addition, we may hedge our investments in our general account, and may require purchasers of certain of the variable insurance products that we offer to allocate premium payments and cash value in accordance with specified investment requirements. However, it is important to note that there is no guarantee that we will always be able to meet our claims-paying obligations, and that there are risks to purchasing any insurance product.

State insurance regulators also require insurance companies to maintain a minimum amount of capital, which acts as a cushion in the event that the insurer suffers a financial impairment, based on the inherent risks in the insurer’s operations. These risks include those associated with losses that we may incur as the result of defaults on the payment of interest or principal on our general account assets, which include bonds, mortgages, general real estate investments, and stocks, as well as the loss in market value of these investments. We may also experience liquidity risk if our general account assets cannot be readily converted into cash to meet obligations to our policyowners or to provide the collateral necessary to finance our business operations.

We are continuing to evaluate our investment portfolio to mitigate market risk and actively manage the investments in the portfolio.

How to Obtain More Information. We encourage both existing and prospective policyowners to read and understand our financial statements. We prepare our financial statements on a statutory basis. Our financial statements, which are presented in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Ohio Department of Insurance—as well as the financial statements of the separate account—are located in the Statement of Additional Information (SAI). The SAI is available at no charge by writing to our administrative office—Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio, 570 Carillon Parkway, St. Petersburg, Florida 33716—or by calling us at (800) 851-9777, or by visiting our website www.westernreserve.com. In addition, the SAI is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. Our financial strength ratings, which reflect the opinions of leading independent rating agencies of WRL’s ability to meet its obligations to its policy owners, are available on our website and the websites of these Nationally Recognized Statistical Ratings Organizations—A.M. Best Company (www.ambest.com), Moody’s Investor Service (www.moodys.com) Standard & Poor’s (www.standardandpoors.com) and Fitch Ratings (www.fitchratings.com).

The Separate Account

The separate account is a separate account of Western Reserve, established under Ohio law. We own the assets in the separate account and we may use assets in the separate account to support other variable life insurance policies we issue. The separate account is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).

The separate account is divided into subaccounts, each of which invests in shares of a specific portfolio of a fund. These subaccounts buy and sell portfolio shares at net asset value without any sales charge. Any dividends and distributions from a portfolio are reinvested at net asset value in shares of that portfolio.

Income, gains, and losses credited to, or charged against, a subaccount of the separate account reflect the subaccount’s own investment experience and not the investment experience of our other assets. The separate account’s assets may not be used to pay any of our liabilities other than those arising from the Policies and other variable life insurance policies we issue. If the separate account’s assets exceed the required reserves and other liabilities, we may transfer the excess to our general account.

Changes to the Separate Account. As permitted by applicable law, we reserve the right to make certain changes to the structure and operation of the separate account, including, among others, the right to:

•

Remove, combine, or add subaccounts and make the new or combined subaccounts available to you at our discretion;

	•		Substitute shares of another registered open-end management company, which may have different fees and expenses, for shares of a subaccount at our discretion;

	•		Close subaccounts to allocations of new premiums by existing or new policyowners at any time in our discretion;

	•		Transfer assets supporting the Policies from one subaccount to another or from the separate account to another separate account;

	•		Combine the separate account with other separate accounts, and/or create new separate accounts;

	•		Deregister the separate account under the 1940 Act, or operate the separate account as a management investment company under the 1940 Act, or as any other form permitted by law; and

	•		Modify the provisions of the Policy to reflect changes to the subaccounts and the separate account and to comply with applicable law.

Some, but not all, of these future changes may be the result of changes in applicable laws or interpretation of the law.

The portfolios, which sell their shares to the subaccounts, may discontinue offering their shares to the subaccounts. We will not make any such changes without receiving any necessary approval of the SEC and applicable state insurance departments. We will notify you of any changes. We reserve the right to make other structural and operational changes affecting the separate account.

The Fixed Account

The fixed account is part of Western Reserve’s general account. We use general account assets to support our insurance and annuity obligations other than those funded by separate accounts. Subject to applicable law, Western Reserve has sole discretion over the investment of the fixed account’s assets. Western Reserve bears the full investment risk for all amounts contributed to the fixed account. Please see the section entitled “Risks of Managing General Account Assets” in this prospectus. Western Reserve guarantees that the amounts allocated to the fixed account will be credited interest daily at an annual net effective interest rate of at least 4.0%. We will determine any interest rate credited in excess of the guaranteed rate at our sole discretion. We have no formula for determining fixed account interest rates in excess of the guaranteed rate nor any duration for such rates.

Money you place in the fixed account will begin earning interest compounded daily at the current interest rate in effect at the time of your allocation. We may declare current interest rates from time to time. We may declare more than one interest rate for different money based upon the date of allocation or transfer to the fixed account. When we declare a current interest rate higher than the guaranteed rate on amounts allocated to the fixed account, we guarantee the higher rate on those amounts for at least one year (the “guarantee period”) unless those amounts are transferred to the loan reserve. At the end of the guarantee period we may declare a new current interest rate on those amounts and any accrued interest thereon. We will guarantee this new current interest rate for another guarantee period. We credit interest greater than 4.0% during any guarantee period at our sole discretion. You bear the risk that interest we credit will not exceed 4.0%.

We allocate amounts from the fixed account for cash withdrawals, transfers to the subaccounts, or monthly deduction charges on a first in, first out basis (“FIFO”) for the purpose of crediting interest.

New Jersey: The fixed account is not available to you if your Policy was issued in the State of New Jersey. You may not direct or transfer any premium payments or cash value to the fixed account. The fixed account is used solely for Policy loans.

The fixed account has not been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has not reviewed the disclosure in this prospectus relating to the fixed account. Disclosures regarding the fixed account, however, may be subject to certain generally applicable provisions of the federal securities laws relating to the accuracy and completeness of statements made in this prospectus.

The Portfolios

The separate account invests in shares of the portfolios of a fund. Each portfolio is an investment division of a fund, which is an open-end management investment company registered with the SEC. Such registration does not involve supervision of the management or investment practices or policies of the portfolios by the SEC.

Each portfolio’s assets are held separate from the assets of the other portfolios, and each portfolio has investment objectives and policies that are different from those of the other portfolios. Thus, each portfolio operates as a separate investment fund, and the income or loss of one portfolio has no effect on the investment performance of any other portfolio. Pending any required approval by a state insurance regulatory authority, certain subaccounts and corresponding portfolios may not be available to residents of some states.

Each portfolio’s investment objective(s) and policies are summarized below. There is no assurance that any of the portfolios will achieve its stated objective(s). Certain portfolios may have investment objectives and policies similar to other portfolios that are managed by the same investment adviser or sub-adviser. The investment results of the portfolios, however, may be higher or lower than those of such other portfolios. We do not guarantee or make any representation that the investment results of the portfolios will be comparable to any other portfolio, even those with the same investment adviser or manager.

You can find more detailed information about the portfolios, including a description of risks, in the fund prospectuses. You may obtain a free copy of the fund prospectuses by contacting us at 1-800-851-9777 or visiting our website at www.westernreserve.com. You should read the fund prospectuses carefully.

Selection of Underlying Portfolios

The underlying portfolios offered through this product are selected by Western Reserve, and Western Reserve may consider various factors, including, but not limited to, asset class coverage, the strength of the adviser’s or sub-adviser’s reputation and tenure, brand recognition, performance, and the capability and qualification of each investment firm. Another factor that we may consider is whether the underlying portfolio or its service providers (e.g., the investment adviser or sub-advisers) or its affiliates will make payments to us or our affiliates in connection with certain administrative, marketing, and support services that would otherwise be provided by the portfolio or its service providers, or whether affiliates of the portfolio can provide marketing and distribution support for sales of the Policies. (For additional information on these arrangements, see “Revenue We Receive.”) We review the portfolios periodically and may remove a portfolio, or limit its availability to new premiums and/or transfers of cash value if we determine that a portfolio no longer satisfies one or more of the selection criteria, and/or if the portfolio has not attracted

significant allocations from policyowners. We have included the Transamerica Series Trust portfolios at least in part because they are managed by Transamerica Asset, our directly owned subsidiary.

You are responsible for choosing the portfolios, and the amounts allocated to each, that are appropriate for your own individual circumstances and your investment goals, financial situation, and risk tolerance. Since investment risk is borne by you, decisions regarding investment allocations should be carefully considered. Please note: Certain portfolios have similar names: it is important that you state or write the full name of the portfolio that you wish to direct your allocation to when you submit an allocation request. Failure to do so may result in a delay of the requested allocation amount being credited to the subaccount.

In making your investment selections, we encourage you to thoroughly investigate all of the information regarding the portfolios that is available to you, including each fund’s prospectus, statement of additional information and annual and semi/annual reports. Other sources such as newspapers and financial and other magazines provide more current information, including information about any regulatory actions or investigations relating to a fund or portfolio. After you select portfolios for your initial premium, you should monitor and periodically re-evaluate your allocations to determine if they are still appropriate.

You bear the risk of any decline in the cash value of your Policy resulting from the performance of the portfolios you have chosen.

We do not recommend or endorse any particular portfolio and we do not provide investment advice.

Addition, Deletion, or Substitution of Portfolios

We do not guarantee that each portfolio will always be available for investment through the Policy. We reserve the right, subject to compliance with applicable law, to add new portfolios or portfolio classes, close existing portfolios or portfolio classes, or substitute portfolio shares that are held by any subaccount for shares of a different portfolio. New or substitute portfolios may have different fees and expenses and their availability may be limited to certain classes of purchasers. We will not add, delete or substitute any shares attributable to your interest in a subaccount without notice to you and prior approval of the SEC, to the extent required by the 1940 Act or other applicable law. We may also decide to purchase securities from other portfolios for the separate account. We reserve the right to transfer separate account assets to another separate account that we determine to be associated with the class of contracts to which the Policy belongs.

Your Right to Vote Portfolio Shares

Even though we are the legal owner of the portfolio shares held in the subaccounts, and have the right to vote on all matters submitted to shareholders of the portfolios, we will vote our shares only as policyowners instruct, so long as such action is required by law.

Before a vote of a portfolio’s shareholders occurs, you will receive voting materials from us. We will ask you to instruct us on how to vote and to return your voting instructions to us in a timely manner. You will have the right to instruct us on the number of portfolio shares that corresponds to the amount of cash value you have in that portfolio (as of a date set by the portfolio).

If we do not receive voting instructions on time from some policyowners, we will vote those shares in the same proportion as the timely voting instructions we receive. Therefore, because of proportional voting, a small number of policyowners may control the outcome of a vote. Should federal securities laws, regulations and interpretations change, we may elect to vote portfolio shares in our own right. If required by state insurance officials, or if permitted under federal regulation, we may disregard certain owner voting instructions. If we ever disregard voting instructions, we will send you a summary in the next annual report to policyowners advising you of the action and the reasons we took such action.

Charges and Deductions

This section describes the charges and deductions that we make under the Policy in consideration for: (1) the services and benefits we provide; (2) the costs and expenses we incur; and (3) the risks we assume. The fees and charges deducted under the Policy may result in a profit to us.


Services and benefits we provide under the Policy:	•	the death benefit, cash and loan benefits;
	•	investment options, including premium allocations;
	•	administration of elective options; and
	•	the distribution of reports to owners.

Costs and expenses we incur:	•	costs associated with processing and underwriting applications;
	•	expenses of issuing and administering the Policy (including any Policy riders);
	•	overhead and other expenses for providing services and benefits and sales and marketing expenses, including compensation paid in connection with the sale of the Policies; and
	•	other costs of doing business, such as collecting premiums, maintaining records, processing claims, effecting transactions, and paying federal, state and local premium and other taxes and fees.

Risks we assume:	•	that the charges we may deduct may be insufficient to meet our actual claims because insureds die sooner than we estimate; and
	•	that the costs of providing the services and benefits under the Policies may exceed the charges we are allowed to deduct.

Some or all the charges we deduct are used to pay aggregate Policy costs and expenses we incur in providing the services and benefits under the Policy and assuming the risks associated with the Policy.

Premium Charges

Before we allocate the net premium payments you make, we will deduct the premium expense charge.


The premium expense charge equals:	•	6.0% of premiums during the first ten Policy years; and
	•	2.5% of premiums thereafter.
		>	Some or all of the premium expense charges we deduct are used to pay the aggregate Policy costs and expenses we incur, including distribution costs and/or state premium taxes. Although state premium tax rates imposed on us vary from state to state, the premium expense charge deducted will not vary with the state of residence of the policyowner.

The premium collection charge equals:	•	$2.00 per premium payment.
	•	We will not increase this charge.

Monthly Deductions

We take a monthly deduction from the cash value on the Policy date and on each Monthiversary. We deduct this charge from each subaccount and the fixed account in accordance with the current premium allocation instructions. If the value of any account is insufficient to pay that account’s portion of the

monthly deductions, we will take the monthly deductions on a pro rata basis from all accounts (i.e., in the same proportion that the value in each subaccount and the fixed account bears to the total cash value on the Monthiversary). Because portions of the monthly deductions (such as cost of insurance) can vary monthly, the monthly deductions will also vary.


The monthly deductions are equal to:	•	the monthly Policy charge; plus
	•	the monthly cost of insurance charge for the Policy; plus
	•	the monthly charge for any benefits provided by riders attached to the Policy.

	Monthly Policy Charge:

	•	This charge currently equals $5.00 each Policy month.
	•	We will not increase this charge.
	•	This charge is used to cover aggregate Policy expenses.

	Cost of Insurance Charge:

	•	We deduct this charge each month. It varies each month and is determined as follows:
		1.	divide the death benefit on the Monthiversary by 1.0032737 (this factor reduces the net amount at risk, for purposes of computing the cost of insurance, by taking into account assumed monthly earnings at an annual rate of 4.0%);
		2.	subtract the cash value on the Monthiversary;
		3.	multiply the appropriate monthly cost of insurance rate for the Policy.

	Optional Insurance Riders:

	•	The monthly deductions will include charges for any optional insurance benefits you add to your Policy by rider.

To determine the monthly cost of insurance rates we refer to a schedule of current cost of insurance rates using the insured’s attained age, gender, underwriting class, and the length of time that the Policy has been in force. The factors that affect the net amount at risk for each segment of specified amount include the investment performance of the portfolios in which you invest, payment of premiums, the fees and charges deducted under the Policy, the death benefit option you chose, as well as any Policy transactions (such as loans, partial withdrawals, transfers, and changes in specified amount). The actual monthly cost of insurance rates are primarily based on our expectations as to future mortality experience and expenses. Monthly cost of insurance rates may be changed by us from time to time. The actual rates we charge will never be greater than the Table of Guaranteed Maximum Life Insurance Rates stated in your Policy. These guaranteed rates are based on the Commissioners 1980 Standard Ordinary Tobacco and Non-Tobacco Mortality Tables (“1980 C.S.O. Tables”) and the insured’s attained age, gender, and underwriting class. For standard underwriting classes, these guaranteed rates will never be greater than the rates in the 1980 C.S.O. Tables.

The underwriting class of the insured will affect the cost of insurance rates. We use a standard method of underwriting in determining underwriting classes, which is based on the health of the insured. We currently place insureds into preferred and standard classes. We also place insureds into sub-standard classes with extra ratings, which reflect higher mortality risks and will result in higher cost of insurance rates. Examples of reasons an insured may be placed into an extra risk factor underwriting class include, but are not limited to, medical history, avocation, occupation, driving record, or planned future travel (where permitted by law).

We may issue certain Policies on a simplified or expedited basis. Cost of insurance rates charged for any Policies issued on a simplified or expedited basis may cause healthy individuals to pay higher cost of insurance rates than they would pay under a substantially similar Policy that we offer using different underwriting criteria.

The cost of insurance charge for any optional insurance rider and for any increase in rider face amount are determined in the same manner used to determine the Base Policy’s cost of insurance charges. Generally, the current cost of insurance rates for optional riders are lower than the current cost of insurance on the Base Policy’s net amount at risk.

Mortality and Expense Risk Charge

We deduct a daily charge from your Policy’s cash value in each subaccount that, together with other fees and charges, compensates us for services rendered, the expenses expected to be incurred and the risks assumed. This charge is a maximum of:

	•		your Policy’s cash value in each subaccount multiplied by

	•		the daily pro rata portion of the annual mortality and expense risk charge rate of 0.90% (this annual rate is equal to 0.90% of the average daily net assets of each subaccount).

If this charge, combined with other Policy fees and charges, does not cover our total actual costs for services rendered and expenses incurred, we absorb the loss. Conversely, if these fees and charges more than cover actual costs, the excess is added to our surplus. We expect to profit from these charges.

Surrender Charge

If you surrender your Policy completely during the first 15 years, we deduct a surrender charge from your cash value and pay the remaining cash value (less any outstanding loan amount) to you. If you increase your specified amount, we deduct an additional surrender charge for the 15 years following the increase. There is no surrender charge if you wait until the end of the 15^th Policy anniversary to surrender your Policy (assuming the specified amount has not been increased). The payment you receive is called the net surrender value. The formula we use reduces the surrender charge at older ages in compliance with state laws.

The surrender charge may be significant. You should evaluate this charge carefully before you consider a surrender. Under some circumstances the level of surrender charges might result in no net surrender value available if you surrender your Policy in the early Policy years. This will depend on a number of factors, but is more likely if:

	•		you pay premiums equal to or not much higher than the minimum monthly guarantee premium shown in your Policy; and/or

	•		investment performance is low.


The surrender charge is equal to:	•	the deferred issue charge; plus the deferred sales charge; multiplied by
	•	the surrender charge percentage.

The deferred issue charge is $5.00 multiplied by each $1,000 of the initial specified amount stated in your Policy and any later increase in specified amount in effect at the time of surrender. This charge helps us recover the underwriting, processing and start-up expenses that we incur in connection with the Policy and the separate account, as well as other aggregate Policy expenses.

The deferred sales charge equals:

	•		26.5% multiplied by the total premiums paid up to the guideline premium shown in your Policy; plus

	•		a percentage, which varies depending on the insured’s issue age and gender (see table below), multiplied by the total premiums paid in excess of the guideline premium (“excess premium charge”).


Issue Age Range
Male and		Excess Premium
Unisex*	Female	Charge
0-55	0-62		4.2	%
56-63	63-69		3.7	%
64-68	70-74		3.1	%
69-73	75		2.5	%
74-75			2.0	%


*		The reference to “unisex” is included for purposes of states which prohibit the use of actuarial tables that distinguish between males and females to determine premiums and policy benefits for policies issued on the lives of their residents.

The deferred sales charge helps us recover distribution expenses that we incur in connection with the Policy, including agent sales commissions and printing and advertising costs. The proceeds of this charge may not be sufficient to cover these expenses. To the extent they are not, Western Reserve will cover the shortfall from its general account assets, which may include profits from the mortality and expense risk charge under the Policy.

To determine the surrender charge, we apply the surrender charge percentage to the sum of the deferred issue charge and the deferred sales charge. In Policy years 1-10 this percentage is 100% for male insureds at issue ages 0-65 and female insureds at issue ages 0-70 and then declines at the rate of 20% per year until reaching zero at the end of the 15th Policy year. Percentages for the WRL Protector Plus Program^SM are different than those shown below.

Surrender Charge Percentages
Males Issue Ages 0-65
Females Issue Ages 0-70


Surrender Charge
Percentage
End of Policy Year*	Percentage
At Issue		100	%
1-10		100	%
11		80	%
12		60	%
13		40	%
14		20	%
15		0	%
16+		0	%


*		The percentage on any date other than a Policy anniversary will be determined proportionately using the percentage at the end of the Policy year prior to surrender and the percentage at the end of the Policy year of surrender.

For insureds with older issue ages, the surrender charge percentage is less than 100% at the end of the 10th Policy year and then declines to 0% at the end of the 15th Policy year. Therefore, the surrender charge will be less if you surrender the Policy during the 11th through the 15th Policy year. There is no surrender charge if the Policy is surrendered after the 15^th Policy year unless you increase the specified amount. See “Additional Surrender Charge on Increases” below. A different surrender charge percentage schedule applies to Policies through the WRL Protector Plus Program^SM. See “WRL Protector Plus Program^SM.”

•

Surrender Charge Example 1: Assume a male insured purchases the Policy at issue age 35 for $100,000 of specified amount, paying the guideline premium of $1,007, and an additional premium amount of $493 in excess of the guideline premium, for a total premium of $1,500 per year for four years ($6,000 total for four years), and then surrenders the Policy. The surrender charge would be calculated as follows:


(a) Deferred issue charge: [100 x $5.00] ($5.00/$1,000 of initial specified amount)	=	$	500.00

(b) Deferred sales charge:
(1) 26.5% of guideline premium paid [26.5% x $1,007], and	=	$	266.86

(2) 4.2% of premiums paid in excess of guideline premium [4.2% x $4,993]	=	$	209.71

•

Surrender Charge Example 2: Assume the same facts as in Example 1, including continued premium payments of $1,500 per year except the owner surrenders the Policy on the 14th Policy anniversary:


(a) Deferred issue charge: [100 x $5.00]	=	$	500.00

(b) Deferred sales charge:
(1) [26.5% x $1,007], and	=	$	266.86

(2) [4.2% x $19,993]	=	$	839.71

(c) Applicable surrender charge [(a)$500.00 + (b)($266.86 + $839.71)] x 20%	=		20	%

Surrender charge = [$500.00 + $1,106.57] x 20%	=	$	321.31

Additional Surrender Charge on Increases in Specified Amount. If you increase the specified amount and you surrender your Policy, we will deduct an additional surrender charge for the 15 Policy years following each increase. This charge is equal to:

	•		$5.00 multiplied by each $1,000 of the specified amount increase; multiplied by

	•		the applicable surrender charge shown in your Policy, with Policy years commencing on the date of each increase.

The surrender charge helps us recover distribution expenses that we incur in connection with the Policy, including agent sales commissions and printing and advertising costs.

Transfer Charge

	•		We currently allow you to make 12 transfers each year free from charge.

	•		Except as listed below, we charge $10 for each additional transfer.

	•		For purposes of assessing the transfer charge, all transfers made in one day, regardless of the number of subaccounts affected by the transfer, is considered a single transfer.

	•		We deduct the transfer charge from the amount being transferred.


	•		Transfers resulting from loans, the exercise of conversion rights, or the reallocation of cash value immediately after the reallocation date, currently do not count as transfers for the purpose of assessing this charge.


	•		Transfers via the Internet do not count as transfers for the purpose of assessing this charge.

	•		Transfers between the ProFunds or Access Trust subaccounts do not count as transfers for the purpose of assessing this charge.

	•		Transfers under dollar cost averaging and asset rebalancing do count as transfers for the purpose of assessing this charge.

	•		We will not increase this charge.

We charge you an annual interest rate on a Policy loan of 5.2% in advance (5.49% effective annual interest rate after rounding) on each Policy anniversary. We also currently credit the amount in the loan reserve account with an effective annual interest rate of 4.75% (4.0% minimum guaranteed). After offsetting the 4.75% interest we credit, the net cost of loans currently is 0.74% annually after rounding (1.49% maximum guaranteed). After the 10^th Policy year, you will receive preferred loan credited rates on an amount equal to the cash value minus total premiums paid (less any cash withdrawals) and minus any outstanding loan amount. The current preferred loan interest rate credited is 5.49% effective annually, after rounding, and is not guaranteed.

For Policies issued before May 1, 1994, we charge you an annual interest rate of 7.4%. For the following states, the annual interest rate on a Policy loan is 7.4% for all Policies issued before, and 5.2% for all Policies issued on or after the dates indicated: Idaho – May 24, 1994; Montana – May 20, 1994;

Rhode Island – May 19, 1994; Oregon – June 27, 1994; Minnesota – December 28, 1994; and Vermont – February 21, 1996.

Cash Withdrawal Charge

	•		After the first Policy year, you may take one cash withdrawal per Policy year.

	•		When you make a cash withdrawal, we charge a processing fee of $25 or 2% of the amount you withdraw, whichever is less.

	•		We deduct this amount from the withdrawal, and we pay you the balance.

	•		We will not increase this charge.

Taxes

We currently do not make any deductions for taxes from the separate account. We may do so in the future to the extent that such taxes are imposed by federal or state agencies.

Rider Charges


	•		Terminal Illness Accelerated Death Benefit Rider. We do not assess an administrative charge for this rider; however, we do reduce the single sum benefit by a discount factor to compensate us for expected lost income as a result of early payment of the death benefit. The discount rate is equal to the applicable Federal Interest Tate (4.09% in 2009) or the policy loan rate, whichever is greater.


	•		Children’s Insurance Rider. We assess a cost of insurance charge based on the rider face amount regardless of the number of children insured.

	•		Accidental Death Benefit Rider. We assess a cost of insurance charge based on the insured’s attained age and rider face amount. Cost of insurance charges generally will increase each year with the age of the insured.

	•		Other Insured Rider. We assess a cost of insurance charge based on each other insured’s issue age, gender, underwriting class, Policy year and the rider face amount. Cost of insurance charges generally will increase each year with the age of the insured.

	•		Disability Waiver Rider. We assess a rider charge based on the primary insured’s issue age, gender and net amount at risk for the Policy, as well as a charge based on those riders that would be eligible to have monthly deductions waived.

	•		Disability Waiver and Income Rider. The charge for this rider is based on the primary insured’s issue age, gender and the amount of monthly waiver of premium benefit that would be paid in the event of total disability, as defined in the rider.

	•		Primary Insured Rider (“PIR”) and Primary Insured Rider Plus (“PIR Plus”). We assess a cost of insurance charge based on the insured’s issue age, gender, underwriting class, Policy year and the rider face amount. Cost of insurance charges generally will increase each year with the age of the insured.

Portfolio Expenses

The portfolios deduct management fees and expenses from the amounts you have invested in the portfolios. Some portfolios also deduct 12b-1 fees from portfolio assets. These fees and expenses reduce the value of your portfolio shares. See the fund prospectuses for more detailed information about the funds.

Revenue We Receive

We (and our affiliates) may directly or indirectly receive payments from the portfolios, their advisers, sub-advisers, distributors or affiliates thereof, in connection with certain administrative, marketing and other services we (and our affiliates) provide and expenses we incur. We (and/or our affiliates) generally receive three types of payments:


	•		*Rule 12b-1 Fees.* Our affiliate Transamerica Capital, Inc. (“TCI”), serves as the principal underwriter for the Policies. TCI receives some or all of the 12b-1 fees from the funds. Any 12b-1 fees received by TCI that are attributable to our variable insurance products are then credited to us. These fees range from 0.00% to 0.25% of the average daily assets of the

			certain portfolios attributable to the Policies and to certain other variable insurance products that we and our affiliates issue.


	•		*Administrative, Marketing and Support Service Fees (“Service Fees”).* The investment adviser, sub-adviser, administrators, and/or distributors (or affiliates thereof) of the portfolios may make payments to us and/or our affiliates, including TCI. These payments may be derived, in whole or in part, from the profits the investment adviser or sub-adviser realized on from the advisory fee deducted from portfolio assets. Policyowners, through their indirect investment in the portfolios, bear the costs of those advisory fees (see the prospectuses for the funds for more information). The amount of the payments we or our affiliates receive is generally based on a percentage of the assets of the particular portfolios attributable to the Policy and to certain other variable insurance products that our affiliates and we issue. These percentages differ and may be significant. Some advisers or sub-advisers (or other affiliates) pay us more than others.

The chart below provides the maximum combined percentages of 12b-1 fees and Service Fees that we anticipate will be paid to us on an annual basis:

Incoming Payments to Western Reserve and TCI


	Maximum Fee				Maximum Fee
Fund	% of assets*			Fund	% of assets*
Transamerica Series Trust **		—		Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Funds		0.45	%***
ProFunds		0.50	%	Access One Trust		0.50	%
Alliance Bernstein		0.25	%	Franklin Templeton		0.35	%



*		Payments are based on a percentage of the average assets of each fund portfolio owned by the subaccounts that are available under this Policy and under certain other variable insurance products offered by our affiliates and us. We may continue to receive 12b-1 fees and administrative fees on subaccounts that are closed to new investments, depending on the terms of the agreements supporting those payments and on the services we or TCI provide.



**		Because the Transamerica Series Trust is managed by an affiliate, there are additional benefits to us and our affiliates for amounts you allocate to the Transamerica Series Trust portfolios, in terms of our and our affiliates’ overall profitability. During 2008 we received $33.9 million from Transamerica Asset.



***		We receive this percentage once $100 million in fund shares are held by the subaccounts of Western Reserve and its affiliates.

Other payments. We and our affiliates, including TCI, InterSecurities, Inc. (“ISI”), and World Group Securities (“WGS”), also directly or indirectly receive additional amounts or different percentages of assets under management from certain advisers and sub-advisers to the portfolios (or their affiliates) with regard to variable insurance products or mutual funds that are issued or managed by us and our affiliates. These payments may be derived in whole or in part, from the profits the investment adviser or sub-adviser receives from the advisory fee deducted from portfolio assets. Policyowners, through their indirect investment in the portfolios, bear the costs of those advisory fees (see the prospectuses for the funds for more information. Certain advisers and sub-advisers of the underlying portfolios (or their affiliates) (1) may pay TCI amounts up to $75,000 per year to participate in a “preferred sponsor” program that provides such advisers and sub-advisers with access to TCI’s wholesalers at TCI’s national and regional sales conferences that are attended by TCI’s wholesalers; (2) may pay ISI varying amounts to obtain access to ISI’s wholesaling and selling representatives; (3) may provide us and/or certain affiliates and/or selling firms with occasional gifts, meals, tickets or other compensation as an incentive to market the portfolios and to cooperate with their promotional efforts; and (4) may reimburse our affiliated selling firms for exhibit booths and other items at national conferences of selling representatives. The amounts may be significant and provide the adviser or sub-adviser (or other affiliates) with increased access to us and to our affiliates involved in the distribution of the Policy.

For the calendar year ended December 31, 2008, TCI received revenue sharing payments ranging from $4,405 to $35,295 (for a total of $418,058) from the following fund managers and/or sub-advisers to participate in TCI’s events: T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc.; American Century Investment Management; MFS Investment Management; Transamerica Investment Management, LLC; Pacific Investment Management Company LLC; Jennison Associates; Lehman Brothers; Legg Mason; Alliance Bernstein; Federated Funds; Fidelity Funds; ING Clarion; Merrill Lynch; BlackRock; Columbia Management LLC; JPMorgan Investment Management, Inc.; Oppenheimer Funds; Dreyfus; Evergreen Funds; Franklin Portfolio Associates; Franklin Templeton; Janus Capital; Natixis Asset Management Advisors; Putnam; Schroder; Van Kampen; and Vanguard.

Please note some of the aforementioned managers and/or sub-advisers may not be associated with underlying fund portfolios currently available in this product.

Proceeds from certain of these payments by the funds, the advisers, the sub-advisers and/or their affiliates may be profit to us, and may be used for any corporate purpose, including payment of expenses (i) that we and our affiliates incur in promoting, issuing, marketing and administering the Policies; and (ii) that we incur, in our role as intermediary, in promoting, marketing and administering the fund portfolios.

For further details about the compensation payments we make in connection with the sale of the Policies, see “Sale of the Policies” in this prospectus.

The Policy

The Policy is subject to the insurance laws and regulations of each state or jurisdiction in which it is available for distribution. There may be differences between the Policy issued and the general Policy description contained in this prospectus because of requirements of the state where your Policy is issued. Some of the state specific differences are included in the prospectus, but this prospectus does not include references to all state specific differences. All state specific Policy features will be described in your Policy.

Ownership Rights

The Policy belongs to the owner named in the application. The owner may exercise all of the rights and options described in the Policy. The owner is the insured unless the application specifies a different person as the insured. If the owner dies before the insured and no contingent owner is named, then ownership of the Policy will pass to the owner’s estate. The principal rights an owner may exercise are:

	•		to designate or change beneficiaries before the death of the insured;

	•		to receive amounts payable before the death of the insured;

	•		to assign the Policy (if you assign the Policy, your rights and the rights of anyone who is to receive payment under the Policy are subject to the terms of that assignment)

	•		to change the owner of this Policy; and

	•		to change the specified amount of this Policy.

No designation or change in designation of an owner will take effect unless we receive written request thereof. When received, the request will take effect as of the date we receive it, in good order, at our mailing address, subject to payment or other action taken by us before it was received.

Modifying the Policy

Any modifications or waiver of any rights or requirements under the Policy must be in writing, in good order, and signed by our president or secretary. No agent may bind us by making any promise not contained in this Policy.

Upon notice to you, we may modify the Policy:

	•		to make the Policy or the separate account comply with any law or regulation issued by a governmental agency to which we are subject; or

	•		to assure continued qualification of the Policy as a life insurance contract under the Internal Revenue Code or to meet applicable requirements of federal or state laws relating to variable life policies; or

	•		to reflect a change in the operation of the separate account; or

	•		to provide additional subaccounts and/or fixed account options.

Purchasing a Policy

To purchase a Policy, you must submit a completed application and an initial premium to us through any licensed life insurance agent who is also a registered representative of a broker-dealer having a selling agreement with TCI, the principal underwriter for the Policy, and us.

There may be delays in our receipt and processing of applications and premium payments that are outside of our control – for example, because of the failure of a selling broker-dealer or registered representative to promptly forward the application to us at our mailing address, or because of delays in determining whether the Policy is suitable for you. Any such delays will affect when your Policy can be issued.

You select the specified amount of insurance coverage for your Policy within the following limits. Our current minimum specified amount for a Policy for issue ages 0-45 is generally $50,000. It declines to $25,000 for issue ages 46-75.

We will generally only issue a Policy to you if you provide sufficient evidence that the insured meets our insurability standards. Your application is subject to our underwriting rules, and we may reject any application for any reason permitted by law. We will not issue a Policy to you if the insured is over age 75. The insured must be insurable and acceptable to us under our underwriting rules on the later of:


	•		the date of your application; or


	•		the date the insured completes all of the medical tests and examinations that we require.

Tax-Free “Section 1035” Exchanges

You can generally exchange one life insurance policy for another covering the same insured in a “tax-free exchange” under Section 1035 of the Internal Revenue Code. Before making an exchange, you should compare both life insurance policies carefully. Remember that if you exchange another life insurance policy for the one described in this prospectus, you might have to pay a surrender charge on your old policy, other charges may be higher (or lower) and the benefits may be different. If the exchange does not qualify for Section 1035 treatment, or if your current policy is subject to a policy loan, you may also have to pay federal income tax on the exchange. You should not exchange another life insurance policy for this one unless you determine, after knowing all the facts, that the exchange is in your best interest and not just better for the person selling you the Policy (that person will generally earn a commission if you buy this Policy through an exchange or otherwise).

When Insurance Coverage Takes Effect

Insurance coverage under the Policy will take effect only if all of the following conditions have been met: (1) the first full premium must be received by the Company at our mailing address; (2) during the lifetime of every proposed insured, the proposed owner must have personally received and accepted the Policy which was applied for and all answers on the application must be true and correct on the date such Policy is received and accepted; and (3) on the date of the later of either (1) or (2) above, all of the statements and answers given in the application must be true and complete, and there must have been no change in the insurability of any proposed insured.

Conditional Insurance Coverage. If you pay the full initial premium and have met all of the requirements listed in the conditional receipt attached to the application, and we deliver the conditional receipt to you, the insured may have conditional insurance coverage under the terms of the conditional receipt. The conditional insurance coverage may vary by state and/or underwriting class. Because we do not accept initial premiums in advance for Policies with a specified amount in excess of $1,000,000, we do not offer conditional insurance coverage for Policies issued with a specified amount in excess of $1,000,000. Conditional insurance coverage is void if the check or draft you gave us to pay the initial premium is not honored when we first present it for payment.


The aggregate amount of conditional insurance coverage, if any, is the lesser of:	• •	the amounts applied for under all conditional receipts issued by us; or $500,000 of life insurance.


Subject to the conditions and limitations of the conditional receipt, conditional insurance under the terms of the Policy applied for may become effective as of the later of:	•	the date of application; or
	•	the date of the last medical examination, test, and other screenings required by us, if any (the “Effective Date”). Such conditional insurance will take effect as of the Effective Date, so long as all of the following requirements are met:


			1.	The person proposed to be insured is found to have been insurable as of the Effective Date, exactly as applied for in accordance with our underwriting rules and standards, without any modifications as to plan, amount, or premium rate;
			2.	As of the Effective Date, all statements and answers given in the application must be true;
			3.	The payment made with the application must not be less than the full initial premium for the mode of payment chosen in the application and must be received at our mailing address within the lifetime of the proposed insured;
			4.	All medical examinations, tests, and other screenings required of the proposed insured by us are completed and the results received at our mailing address within 60 days of the date the application was signed; and
			5.	All parts of the application, any supplemental application, questionnaires, addendum and/or amendment to the application are signed and received at our mailing address.

Any conditional life insurance coverage terminates on the earliest of:	a.	60 days from the date the application was signed;
	b.	the date we either mail notice to the applicant of the rejection of the application and/or mail a refund of any amounts paid with the application;
	c.	when the insurance applied for goes into effect under the terms of the Policy applied for; or
	d.	the date we offer to provide insurance on terms that differ from the insurance for which you have applied.

Special limitations of the conditional receipt:	•	the conditional receipt is not valid unless:
Special limitations of the conditional receipt:		>		all blanks in the conditional receipt are completed; and
		>		the receipt is signed by an agent or authorized Company representative.

Other limitations:	•	There is no conditional receipt coverage for riders or any additional benefits, if any, for which you may have applied.
	•	If one or more of the receipt’s conditions have not been met exactly, or if a proposed insured dies by suicide, we will not be liable except to return any payment made with the application.
	•	If we do not approve and accept the application within 60 days of the date you signed the application, the application will be deemed to be rejected by us and there will be no conditional insurance coverage. In that case, Western Reserve’s liability will be limited to returning any payment(s) you have made upon return of this receipt to us.

Full Insurance Coverage and Allocation of Initial Premium. Once we determine that the insured meets our underwriting requirements and you have paid the initial premium, the Policy will be issued; full insurance coverage will begin and we will begin to take the monthly deductions from your net premium. This date is the Policy date (the record date, if Policy is backdated.) Any premium payments we receive before the Policy date (record date, if applicable) will be held in a non-interest bearing

suspense account. On the Policy date (or on the record date if your Policy is backdated), the entire amount in the non-interest bearing suspense account will be allocated as follows: (i) to the subaccounts and/or the fixed account as you specified in your application, if your state does not require a full refund of initial premium; or (ii) to the reallocation account, if your state requires us to return your initial premium in the event you exercise your free-look right. (While held in the reallocation account, premium(s) will be credited with interest at the current fixed rate until the reallocation date when they will be allocated to the subaccounts and/or the fixed account as you specified in your application.) Please note: Your premiums are credited on the date the Policy is issued, not the backdated Policy date.

On any day we credit net premiums or transfer cash value to a subaccount, we will convert the dollar amount of the net premium (or transfer) into subaccount units at the unit value for that subaccount, determined at the end of the day on which we receive the premium or transaction request:


Transaction Type:		Priced when received at our:
payment by check		mailing address, unless other address appears on your billing coupon
transfer request		administrative office
payment by wire transfer		administrative office
electronic credit and debit transactions (e.g., payments through direct deposit, debit transfers, and forms of e-commerce payments		administrative office

We will credit amounts to the subaccounts only on a valuation date, that is, on a date that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading.

Canceling a Policy

You may cancel a Policy for a refund during the “free-look period” by returning it, with a written request to cancel the Policy, to our administrative office or mailing address, to one of our branch offices or to the registered representative who sold you the Policy. The “free-look period” expires 10 days after you receive the Policy. In some states you may have more than 10 days. If you decide to cancel the Policy during the “free-look period,” we will treat the Policy as if it had never been issued. We will pay the refund within seven days after we receive the written request and the returned Policy at our mailing address. The amount of the refund will be:

	•		any charges and taxes we deduct from your premiums; plus

	•		any monthly deductions or other charges we deducted from amounts you allocated to the subaccounts and the fixed account; plus

	•		your cash value in the subaccounts and the fixed account on the date the written request and Policy are received at our mailing address.

Some states may require us to refund all of the premiums you paid for the Policy. In addition, some states may require us to allocate premium according to a policyowner’s instructions during the “free-look period.”

Group or Sponsored Policies

We issue a different Policy for group or sponsored arrangements (“Group/Sponsored Policies”). Under Group/Sponsored Policies, a trustee or employer purchases individual policies covering a group of individuals on a group basis (e.g., section 401 employer-sponsored benefit plans and deferred compensation plans). A sponsored arrangement is where an employer permits a group solicitation of Policies to its employees or an association permits a group solicitation of Policies to its members.

We have certain criteria to issue Group/Sponsored Policies. Generally, a group or sponsored arrangement must be a specific size and must have been in operation for a number of years. We may reduce certain charges, such as premium expense charges, surrender charge, limits on minimum premium and minimum specified amount, or monthly Policy charge, for these Policies. In some cases, we currently waive the monthly Policy charge and reduce the surrender charge. The amount of the reduction and the criteria for Group/Sponsored Policies will reflect the reduced sales effort resulting from these sales. Groups or sponsored arrangements which have been set up solely to purchase Group/Sponsored Policies or which have been in existence for less than six months will not qualify. Group/Sponsored Policies may not be

available in all states. Group/Sponsored Policies may be subject to special tax rules and consequences and other legal restrictions.

Insurance policies where the benefits vary based on gender may not be used to fund certain employer-sponsored benefit plans and fringe benefit programs. Employers should consult tax attorneys before proposing to offer Group/Sponsored Policies.

Associate Policies

We offer an Associate Policy to certain employees, field associates, directors and their relatives. An Associate Policy may have reduced or waived premium expense charges, surrender charges, cost of insurance rates, limits on minimum premium and minimum specified amount, or monthly Policy charge. The Associate Policy is available to:

	•		our current and retired directors, officers, full-time employees and registered representatives, and those of our affiliates; current and retired directors, officers, full-time employees and registered representatives of TCI and any broker-dealer with which they have a sales agreement;

	•		any trust, pension, profit-sharing or other employee benefit plan of the foregoing persons or entities;

	•		current and retired directors, officers, and full-time employees of the Transamerica Series Trust , the Transamerica Funds , and any investment adviser or sub-adviser thereto; and

	•		any immediate family member of the above.

We may modify or terminate this arrangement. Associate Policies may not be available in all states.

WRL Protector Plus Program^SM

A WRL Protector Plus Program^SM Policy differs from a standard Policy in the following ways:

	•		the initial premium must be at least $10,000, and at least 90% of the maximum allowable premium;

	•		our administrative and distribution expenses are lower, so we do not assess any premium expense charges;

	•		the underwriting process is shorter and simpler;

	•		the cost of insurance charges may be different;

	•		most WRL Protector Plus Program^SM Policies will be treated as modified endowment contracts; and

	•		for Policies issued on and after May 1, 1996, the surrender charge percentage applies for a shorter time (see below).

Surrender Charge Percentage


End of Policy Year*	Percentage
At Issue		100	%
1-5		100	%
6		80	%
7		60	%
8		40	%
9		0


*		The percentage on any date other than a Policy anniversary will be determined proportionately using the percentage at the end of the Policy year prior to surrender and the percentage at the end of the Policy year of surrender.

The minimum possible specified amount at issue is the amount that a $10,000 premium will purchase based on the insured’s age, gender and underwriting class, and certain federal tax law guidelines. For a larger premium there will be a larger minimum specified amount. The maximum specified amount depends on the size of the initial premium payment, and is approximately 111% of the lowest possible specified amount for that premium. Due to federal tax laws, the amount of additional premium payments you make may be limited. There are no planned periodic premiums.

Policy Features

Premiums

Allocating Premiums

You must instruct us on how to allocate your net premium among the subaccounts and the fixed account. The fixed account may not be available in all states to direct or transfer money into. You must follow these guidelines:

	•		allocation percentages must be in whole numbers;

	•		if you select dollar cost averaging, we may require you to have a minimum of $10,000 in each subaccount from which we will make transfers and you may be required to transfer at least a total of $1,000 ($500 for New Jersey residents) monthly; and

	•		if you select asset rebalancing, the cash value of your Policy, if an existing Policy, or your minimum initial premium, if a new Policy, must be at least $10,000

Currently, you may change the allocation instructions for additional premium payments without charge at any time by writing us at our mailing address or calling us at our administrative office at 1-800-851-9777, Monday – Friday, between the hours of 8:30 a.m. — 7:00 p.m. Eastern time. Please note: When providing your allocation instructions, please state or write the full name of the subaccount that you select for your allocation. Certain subaccounts have similar names; failure to provide the full name may result in a delay of your allocation being credited to the subaccount that you have selected. The change will be effective as of the valuation date on which we receive the change. Upon instructions from you, the registered representative/agent of record for your Policy may also change your allocation instructions for you. The minimum amount you can allocate to a particular subaccount is 10% of a net premium payment. We reserve the right to limit the number of premium allocation changes to one per Policy year quarter.

Whenever you direct money into a subaccount, we will credit your Policy with the number of units for that subaccount that can be bought for the dollar payment. Premium payments received at our mailing address or at the address on your billing coupon (for payments made by check) or at our administrative office (for payments made by wire transfer and through electronic credit and debit transactions) before the NYSE closes are priced using the unit value determined at the closing of the regular business session of the NYSE (usually at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). If we receive a premium payment at our mailing address after the NYSE closes, we will process the order using the subaccount unit value determined at the close of the next regular session of the NYSE. We will credit amounts to the subaccounts only on a valuation date, that is, on a date the NYSE is open for trading. Your cash value will vary with the investment experience of the subaccounts in which you invest. You bear the investment risk for amounts you allocate to the subaccounts.

You should periodically review how your cash value is allocated among the subaccounts and the fixed account because market conditions and your overall financial objectives may change.

Premium Flexibility

You generally have flexibility to determine the frequency and the amount of the premiums you pay. Unlike conventional insurance policies, you do not have to pay your premiums according to a rigid and inflexible premium schedule. Before we issue the Policy to you, we may require you to pay a premium at least equal to a minimum monthly guarantee premium set forth in your Policy. Thereafter (subject to the limitations described below), you may make unscheduled premium payments at any time and in any amount over $50. Under some circumstances, you may be required to pay extra premiums to prevent a lapse. Your minimum monthly guarantee premium may change if you request a change in your Policy. If this happens, we will notify you of the new minimum monthly guarantee premium. See “Minimum Monthly Guarantee Premium” below.

Planned Periodic Payments

You will determine a planned periodic payment schedule, which allows you to pay level premiums at fixed intervals over a specified period of time. You are not required to pay premiums according to this schedule. You may change the amount, frequency, and the time period over which you make your planned periodic payments. Please be sure to notify us or your agent/registered representative of any address changes so that we may be able to keep your current address on record.

Even if you make your planned periodic payments on schedule, your Policy still may lapse. The duration of your Policy depends on the Policy’s net surrender value. If the net surrender value is not high enough to pay the monthly deductions when due (and your no lapse period has expired) then your Policy will lapse (unless you make the payment we specify during the 61-day grace period).

Minimum Monthly Guarantee Premium

The full initial premium is the only premium you are required to pay under the Policy. However, you greatly increase your risk of lapse if you do not regularly pay premiums at least as large as the current minimum monthly guarantee premium.

Until the no lapse date shown on your Policy schedule page, we guarantee that your Policy will not lapse, so long as on any Monthiversary you have paid total premiums (minus any cash withdrawals and minus any outstanding loan amount) that equal or exceed the minimum monthly guarantee premium in effect times the number of months since the Policy date up to and including the current month. If you take a cash withdrawal, a loan, or if you increase or decrease your specified amount or if you add, increase or decrease a rider, you may need to pay additional premiums in order to keep the no lapse period guarantee in effect.

The initial minimum monthly guarantee premium is shown on your Policy’s schedule page, and depends on a number of factors, including the age, gender, underwriting class of the insured, and the specified amount requested. We will adjust the minimum monthly guarantee premium if you change death benefit options, decrease the specified amount, or if any of the riders are added, or if in force riders are increased or decreased. We will notify you of the new minimum monthly guarantee premium.

No Lapse Period

Until the no lapse date shown on your Policy schedule page, your Policy will remain in force and no grace period will begin, even if your net surrender value is too low to pay the monthly deductions, so long as:

	•		you have not increased your specified amount; or

	•		you have not added any riders; and

	•		the total amount of the premiums you paid (minus any cash withdrawals, minus any outstanding loan amount) equals or exceeds:

> the minimum monthly guarantee premium in effect times the number of months since the Policy date up to and including the current month.

After the no lapse period ends, paying the current minimum monthly guarantee premium each month will not necessarily keep your Policy in force. You may need to pay additional premiums to keep the Policy in force.

Premium Limitations

We may require premium payments to be at least $50 ($1,000 if by wire). We may return premiums less than the minimum. We will not allow you to make any premium payments that would cause the total amount of the premiums you pay to exceed the current maximum premium limitations, if applicable, by which the Policy qualifies as life insurance under federal tax laws. (See “Death Benefit” for more information regarding the guideline premium test.)

This maximum is set forth in your Policy. If you make a payment that would cause your total premiums to be greater than the maximum premium limitations, we will return the excess portion of the premium payment, with interest, within 60 days after the end of that Policy year. In addition, we reserve the right to refund a premium if the premium would increase the death benefit by more than the amount of the premium. We will not accept a payment that will cause the Policy to become a modified endowment contract without your consent.

Making Premium Payments

We will consider any payments you make to be premium payments, unless you clearly identify them as loan repayments. We will deduct certain charges from your premium payments. We will accept premium payments by wire transfer.

If you wish to make payments by wire transfer, you should contact our administrative office at 1-800-851-9777 for instructions on wiring federal funds to us.

Tax-Free Exchanges (“1035 Exchanges”). We will accept part of or all of your initial premium from one or more contracts insuring the same insured that qualify for tax-free exchanges under Section 1035 of the Internal Revenue Code. If you contemplate such an exchange, you should consult a competent tax advisor to learn the potential tax effects of such a transaction.

Subject to our underwriting requirements, we will permit you to make one additional cash payment within three business days of receipt at our administrative office of the proceeds from the 1035 Exchange before we finalize your Policy’s specified amount.

Transfers

General

You or your registered representative of record may make transfers among the subaccounts or from the subaccounts to the fixed account. You will be bound by any transfers made by your registered representative. We determine the amount you have available for transfers at the end of the valuation period when we receive your transfer request. We may, at any time, discontinue transfer privileges, modify our procedures, or limit the number of transfers we permit. The following features apply to transfers under the Policy:

	•		Each Policy year, the Policy allows a cumulative transfer out of the fixed account of the greater of up to 25% of the amount in the fixed account, or the amount transferred out the previous Policy year. Currently, we do not, but reserve the right to, limit the number of transfers out of the fixed account to one per Policy year. If we modify or stop this current practice, we will notify you at the time of your transfer.


	•		You currently may request transfers in writing to our mailing address (in a form we accept), by fax or by telephone to our administrative office or electronically through our website (www.westernreserve.com). Please note: Certain subaccounts have similar names; it is important that you state or write the full name of the subaccount when making a transfer request. Failure to do so may result in a delay of your transfer.


	•		There is no minimum amount that must be transferred.

	•		There is no minimum amount that must remain in a subaccount after a transfer.

	•		Except as listed below, we deduct a $10 charge from the amount transferred for each transfer in excess of 12 transfers in a Policy year.

	•		We consider all transfers made in any one day to be a single transfer.

	•		Transfers resulting from loans or the exercise of conversion rights, or due to reallocation of cash value immediately after the record date, are currently not treated as transfers for the purpose of the transfer charge.

	•		Transfers via the Internet are not treated as transfers for purpose of assessing the transfer charge.

	•		Transfers among the ProFunds and/or Access Trust subaccounts do not count as transfers for the purpose of assessing the transfer charge.


	•		Transfers under dollar cost averaging and asset rebalancing do count as transfers for the purpose of assessing the transfer charge.

We will process any transfer order that is received in good order, and in writing, at our mailing address, or by fax or by telephone at our administrative office, before the NYSE closes (usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) using the subaccount unit value determined at the end of that session of the NYSE. If we receive the transfer order after the NYSE closes, we will process the order using the subaccount unit value determined at the close of the next regular business session of the NYSE.

Disruptive Trading and Market Timing

The market timing policy and the related procedures (discussed below) do not apply to the ProFunds or Access Trust subaccounts because the corresponding portfolios are specifically designed to accommodate frequent transfer activity. If you invest in the ProFunds or Access Trust subaccounts, you should be aware that you may bear the costs and increased risks of frequent transfers discussed below.

Statement of Policy. This variable insurance Policy was not designed for the use of market timers or frequent or disruptive traders. Such transfers may be harmful to the underlying fund portfolios and increase transaction costs.

Market timing and disruptive trading among the subaccounts or between the subaccounts and the fixed account can cause risks with adverse effects for other policyowners (and beneficiaries and underlying fund portfolios). These risks and harmful effects include:

(1) dilution of the interests of long-term investors in a subaccount if purchases or transfers into or out of an underlying fund portfolio are made at prices that do not reflect an accurate value for the underlying fund portfolio’s investments (some market timers attempt to do this through methods known as “time-zone arbitrage” and “liquidity arbitrage”);

(2) an adverse effect on portfolio management, such as:

	(a)		impeding a portfolio manager’s ability to sustain an investment objective;

	(b)		causing the underlying fund portfolio to maintain a higher level of cash than would otherwise be the case; or

	(c)		causing an underlying fund portfolio to liquidate investments prematurely (or otherwise at an inopportune time) in order to pay withdrawals or transfers out of the underlying fund portfolio; and

(3) increased brokerage and administrative expenses.

These costs are borne by all policyowners invested in those subaccounts, not just those making the transfers.

We have developed policies and procedures with respect to market timing and disruptive trading (which vary for certain subaccounts at the request of the corresponding underlying fund portfolios) and we do not make special arrangements or grant exceptions to accommodate market timing or other potentially disruptive or harmful trading. As discussed herein, we cannot detect or deter all market timing or other potentially disruptive trading. Do not invest with us if you intend to conduct market timing or potentially disruptive trading.

Detection. We employ various means in an attempt to detect and deter market timing and disruptive trading. However, despite our monitoring we may not be able to detect nor halt all harmful trading. In addition, because other insurance companies (and retirement plans) with different policies and procedures may invest in the underlying fund portfolios, we cannot guarantee that all harmful trading will be detected or that an underlying fund portfolio will not suffer from marketing timing and disruptive trading among subaccounts of variable products issued by these other insurance companies or retirement plans.

Deterrence. If we determine you are engaged in market timing or disruptive trading, we may take one or more actions in an attempt to halt such trading. Your ability to make transfers is subject to modification or restriction if we determine, in our sole opinion, that your exercise of the transfer privilege may disadvantage or potentially harm the rights or interests of other policyowners (or having an interest in the variable insurance products). As described below, restrictions may take various forms, but under our current policies and procedures will include loss of expedited transfer privileges. We consider transfers by telephone, fax, overnight mail, or the Internet to be “expedited” transfers. This means that we would accept only written transfer requests with an original signature transmitted to us only by standard United States Postal Service First Class mail. We may also restrict the transfer privileges of others acting on your behalf, including your registered representative or an asset allocation or investment advisory service. Please note: If you engage a third party investment advisor for asset allocation services then you may be subject to the transfer restrictions because of the actions of your investment advisor in providing those services.

We reserve the right to reject any premium payment or transfer request from any person without prior notice, if, in our judgment, (1) the payment or transfer, or series of transfers, would have a negative impact on an underlying fund portfolio’s operations; or (2) if an underlying fund portfolio would reject or has rejected our purchase order or has instructed us not to allow that purchase or transfer; or (3) because of a history of market timing or disruptive trading. We may impose other restrictions on transfers, or even prohibit transfers for any owner who, in our view, has abused, or appears likely to abuse, the transfer privilege on a case-by-case basis. We may, at any time and without prior notice, discontinue transfer privileges, modify our procedures, impose holding period requirements or limit the number, size, frequency, manner, or timing of transfers we permit. We also reserve the right to reverse a potentially harmful transfer if an underlying fund portfolio refuses or reverses our order; in such instances some policyowners may be treated differently than others in that some transfers may be reversed and others allowed. For all of these purposes, we may aggregate two or more variable insurance products that we believe are connected.

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

Under our current policies and procedures, we do not:

	•		impose redemption fees on transfers;

	•		Expressly limit the number or size of transfers in a given period except for certain subaccounts where an underlying fund portfolio has advised us to prohibit certain transfers that exceed a certain size; or

	•		provide a certain number of allowable transfers in a given period.

Redemption fees, transfer limits, and other procedures or restrictions may be more or less successful than ours in deterring market timing or other disruptive trading and in preventing or limiting harm from such trading.

In the absence of a defensive transfer restriction (e.g., expressly limiting the number of trades within a given period or their size), it is likely that some level of market timing and disruptive trading will occur before it is detected and steps taken to deter it (although some level of market timing and disruptive trading can occur with a defensive transfer restriction). As noted above, we do not impose a defensive transfer restriction and, therefore, it is likely that, some level of market timing and disruptive trading will occur before we are able to detect it and take steps in an attempt to deter it.

Please note that the limits and restrictions described herein are subject to our ability to monitor transfer activity. Our ability to detect market timing or other disruptive trading may be limited by operational and technological systems, as well as by our ability to predict strategies employed by policyowners (or those acting on their behalf) to avoid detection. As a result, despite our efforts to prevent harmful trading activity among the variable investment options available under this variable insurance product, there is no assurance that we will be able to detect or deter market timing or disruptive trading frequent or harmful transfers by such policyowners or intermediaries acting on their behalf. Moreover, our ability to discourage and restrict market timing or disruptive trading may be limited by decisions of state regulatory bodies and court orders which we cannot predict.

Furthermore, we may revise our policies and procedures in our sole discretion at any time and without prior notice, as we deem necessary or appropriate (1) to better detect and deter market timing or other harmful trading that may adversely affect other policyowners, other persons with material rights under the variable insurance products, or underlying fund shareholders generally, (2) to comply with state or federal regulatory requirements, or (3) to impose additional or alternative restrictions on owners engaging in market timing or disruptive trading among the investment options under the variable insurance product. In addition, we may not honor transfer requests if any variable investment option that would be affected by the transfer is unable to purchase or redeem shares of its corresponding underlying fund portfolio.

Underlying Fund Portfolio Frequent Trading Policies. The underlying fund portfolios may have adopted their own policies and procedures with respect to frequent purchases and redemptions of their

respective shares. Underlying fund portfolios may, for example, assess a redemption fee (which we reserve the right to collect) on shares held for a relatively short period of time. The prospectuses for the underlying fund portfolios describe any such policies and procedures. The frequent trading policies and procedures of an underlying fund portfolio may be different, and more or less restrictive, than the frequent trading policies and procedures of other underlying fund portfolios and the policies and procedures we have adopted for our variable insurance policies to discourage market timing and disruptive trading. Policyowners should be aware that we may not have the contractual ability or the operational capacity to monitor policyowners’ transfer requests and apply the frequent trading policies and procedures of the respective underlying funds that would be affected by the transfers. Accordingly, policyowners and other persons who have material rights under our variable insurance products should assume that any protection they may have against potential harm from market timing and disruptive trading is the protection, if any, provided by the policies and procedures we have adopted for our variable insurance products to discourage market timing and disruptive trading in certain subaccounts.

You should be aware that, as required by SEC regulation, we have entered into a written agreement with each underlying fund or principal underwriter that obligates us to provide the fund, upon written request, with information about you and your trading activities in the fund’s portfolios. In addition, we are obligated to execute instructions from the funds that may require us to restrict or prohibit your investment in a specific portfolio if the fund identifies you as violating the frequent trading policies that the fund has established for that portfolio.

If we receive a premium payment from you that you allocate into a fund that has directed us to restrict or prohibit your trades into the fund, then we will request new allocation instructions from you. If we receive from you a transfer request into a fund that has directed us to restrict or prohibit your trades, then we will not effect the transfer.

Omnibus Order. Policyowners and other persons with material rights under the variable insurance products also should be aware that the purchase and redemption orders received by the underlying fund portfolios generally are “omnibus” orders from intermediaries such as retirement plans and separate accounts funding variable insurance products. The omnibus orders reflect the aggregation and netting of multiple orders from individual retirement plan participants and individual owners of variable insurance products. The omnibus nature of these orders may limit the underlying fund portfolios’ ability to apply their respective frequent trading policies and procedures. We cannot guarantee that the underlying fund portfolios will not be harmed by transfer activity relating to the retirement plans or other insurance companies that may invest in the underlying fund portfolios. These other insurance companies are responsible for their own policies and procedures regarding frequent transfer activity. If their policies and procedures fail to successfully discourage harmful transfer activity, it will affect other owners of underlying fund portfolio shares, as well as the owners of all of the variable annuity or life insurance policies, including ours, whose variable investment options correspond to the affected underlying fund portfolios. In addition, if an underlying fund portfolio believes that an omnibus order we submit may reflect one or more transfer requests from owners engaged in market timing and other programmed, large, frequent, or short-term transfers, the underlying fund portfolio may reject the entire omnibus order and thereby delay or prevent us from implementing your request.

ProFunds and Access Trust Subaccounts. Because the above restrictions do not apply to the ProFunds or Access Trust subaccounts, they may have a greater risk than others of suffering from the harmful effects of market timing and disruptive trading, as discussed above (i.e., dilution, an adverse effect on portfolio management, and increased expenses).

Telephone, Fax, and Online Privileges. Telephone transfer privileges will automatically apply to your Policy unless you provide other instructions. The telephone transfer privileges allow you to give authority to the registered representative or agent of record for your Policy to make telephone transfers and to change the allocation of future payments among the subaccounts and the fixed account on your behalf according to your instructions. To make a telephone transfer, you may call us at our administrative office at 1-800-851-9777, Monday – Friday, between the hour of 8:30 a.m. — 7:00 p.m. Eastern time, or fax your instructions to our interfund fax number, 1-727-299-1648, (for all other fax requests, please use 1-727-299-1620. Please note: When providing your allocation instructions, please state or write the full name of the subaccount that you have selected for your allocation. Certain subaccounts have similar names; failure to provide the full name may result in a delay of your allocation being credited to the subaccount that you have selected.

Please note the following regarding telephone, Internet or fax transfers:

	•		We will employ reasonable procedures to confirm that telephone instructions are genuine.

	•		If we follow these procedures, we are not liable for any loss, damage, cost or expense from complying with telephone instructions we reasonably believe to be authentic. You bear the risk of any such loss.

	•		If we do not employ reasonable confirmation procedures, we may be liable for losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions.

	•		Such procedures may include requiring forms of personal identification prior to acting upon telephone instructions, providing written confirmation of transactions to owners, and/or tape recording telephone instructions received from owners.

	•		We may also require written confirmation of your order.

	•		If you do not want the ability to make telephone transfers, you should notify us in writing at our mailing address.

	•		We will not be responsible for same-day processing of transfers if faxed to a number other than 1-727-299-1648 or 1-727-299-1620.

	•		We will not be responsible for any transmittal problems when you fax us your order unless you report it to us within five business days and send us proof of your fax transmittal. We may discontinue this option at any time.

We cannot guarantee that telephone, Internet and faxed transactions will always be available. For example, our offices may be closed during severe weather emergencies or there may be interruptions in telephone or fax service beyond our control. If the volume of calls is unusually high, we might not have someone immediately available to receive your order at our administrative office. Although we have taken precautions to help our systems handle heavy use, we cannot promise complete reliability under all circumstances.

Similarly, online transactions processed via the Internet may not always be possible. Telephone and computer systems, whether yours, your Internet service provider’s, your agent’s or Western Reserve’s, can experience outages or slowdowns for a variety of reasons. These outages or slowdowns may prevent or delay our receipt of your request. If you are experiencing problems, you should make your request or inquiry in writing. You should protect your personal identification number (PIN) because self-service options will be available to your agent of record and to anyone who provides your PIN. We will not be able to verify that the person using your PIN and providing instructions online is you or one authorized by you.

Fixed Account Transfers

Currently, we do not, but reserve the right to limit the number of transfers out of the fixed account to one per Policy year. If we change this, we will notify you. This current restriction does not apply if you have selected dollar cost averaging.

Depending on when your Policy was issued,* we reserve the right to limit the maximum amount you may transfer from the fixed account to the greater of:

	•		25% of the amount in the fixed account; or

	•		the amount you transferred from the fixed account in the immediately preceding Policy year.


*		If your Policy was issued before September 1, 1994, there is no limit on the amount that you can transfer from the fixed account. If your Policy was issued on or after September 1, 1994, (in all states that approved this change), you are subject to the transfer limitations set forth above.

We reserve the right to require that you make the transfer request in writing and that we receive the written transfer request, in good order, at our administrative office (for telephonic and facsimile transactions) or at our mailing address (for written correspondence), no later than 30 days after a Policy anniversary. We will make the transfer at the end of the valuation date on which we receive the request. Transfers from the fixed account are not available through the Internet.

Except when used to pay premiums, we also may defer payment of any amounts from the fixed account for no longer than six months after we receive written notice.

New Jersey: The fixed account is not available to you if your Policy was issued in the State of New Jersey. You may not direct or transfer any money to the fixed account.

Conversion Rights

If, within 24 months of your Policy date, you transfer all of your subaccount values to the fixed account, then we will not charge you a transfer fee, even if applicable. You must make your request in writing and in good order, to our mailing address.

Dollar Cost Averaging

Dollar cost averaging is an investment strategy designed to reduce the average purchase price per unit. The strategy spreads the allocation of your premium into the subaccounts over a period of time. This potentially allows you to reduce the risk of investing most of your premium into the subaccounts at a time when prices are high. The success of this strategy is not assured and depends on market trends. You should consider carefully your financial ability to continue the program over a long enough period of time to purchase units when their value is low as well as when it is high. We make no guarantee that dollar cost averaging will result in a profit or protect you against loss.

Under dollar cost averaging, we automatically transfer a set dollar amount from the WRL Transamerica Money Market VP subaccount, the WRL Transamerica JPMorgan Core Bond VP subaccount or the fixed account to a subaccount that you choose. We will make the transfers monthly as of the end of the valuation date after the first Monthiversary after the record date. We will make the first transfer in the month after we receive your request, in good order, at our mailing address, provided that we receive the form by the 25^th day of the month.



To start dollar cost averaging:	•	You must submit, in good order, a completed form signed by the owner to us at our mailing address requesting dollar cost averaging;

	•	You may be required to have at least $10,000 in each account from which we will make transfers;
	•	Your total transfers each month under dollar cost averaging may be limited to a minimum of $1,000 ($500 for New Jersey residents); and

	•	Each month, you may not transfer more than one-tenth of the amount that was in your fixed account at the beginning of dollar cost averaging.

You may request dollar cost averaging at any time. There is no charge for dollar cost averaging. However, each transfer under dollar cost averaging counts towards your 12 free transfers each year.



Dollar cost averaging will terminate if:	•	We receive, in good order, at our mailing address a request to cancel your participation from you, your registered representative or your agent of record;

	•	The value in the accounts from which we make the transfers is depleted;
	•	You elect to participate in the asset rebalancing program; or
	•	You elect to participate in any asset allocation services provided by a third party.

If you terminate your participation in the dollar cost averaging program, we will stop making dollar cost averaging transfers without a new completed dollar cost averaging request form signed by the owner. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue dollar cost averaging at any time.

Asset Rebalancing Program

We also offer an asset rebalancing program under which you may transfer amounts periodically to maintain a particular percentage allocation among the subaccounts you have selected. Asset rebalancing is

not available with the fixed account. Cash value allocated to each subaccount will grow or decline in value at different rates. The asset rebalancing program automatically reallocates the cash value in the subaccounts at the end of each period to match your Policy’s currently effective premium allocation schedule. Cash value in the fixed account and the dollar cost averaging program is not available for this program. This program does not guarantee gains. A subaccount may still have losses.

You may elect asset rebalancing to occur on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. Once we receive the asset rebalancing request form at our mailing address, we will change your premium allocation instructions to match your asset rebalancing instructions, and we will implement the asset rebalancing program on the date you indicated. We will credit the amounts transferred at the unit value next determined on the dates the transfers are made. If a day on which rebalancing would ordinarily occur falls on a day on which the NYSE is closed, rebalancing will occur on the next day that the NYSE is open.



To start asset rebalancing:	•	You must submit to us, in good order, at our mailing address before the maturity date a completed asset rebalancing request form signed by the owner; and

	•	You may be required to have a minimum cash value of $10,000 or make a $10,000 initial premium payment.

There is no charge for the asset rebalancing program. However, each reallocation we make under the program counts towards your 12 free transfers each year.


Asset rebalancing will cease if:	•	you elect to participate in the dollar cost averaging program;

	•	we receive, in good order, at our mailing address a request to discontinue participation from you, your registered representative or your agent of record;


	•	you make any transfer to or from any subaccount other than under a scheduled rebalancing; or
	•	you elect to participate in any asset allocation services provided by a third party.

You may start and stop participation in the asset rebalancing program at any time, but we may restrict your right to re-enter the program to once each Policy year. If you wish to resume the asset rebalancing program, you must complete a new request form. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the asset rebalancing program at any time.

Third Party Asset Allocation Services

We do not offer any asset allocation programs or any investment models for use with your life insurance policy. You may authorize and engage your own investment advisor to manage your account. These investment advisors may be firms or persons who also are appointed by us, or whose affiliated broker-dealers are appointed by us, as authorized sellers of the Policies. Even if this is the case, however, please note that the investment advisor you engage to provide advice and/or make transfers for you is not acting on our behalf, but rather is acting on your behalf. We do not offer advice about how to allocate your cash value under any circumstance. We are not responsible for any recommendations such investment advisors make, any investment models or asset allocation programs they choose to follow, or any specific transfers they make on your behalf.

Any fee that is charged by your investment advisor is in addition to the fees and expenses that apply under your Policy. We are not a party to the agreement you have with your investment advisor. You will, however, receive confirmations of transactions that affect your Policy. Note: If you make withdrawals of cash value to pay advisory fees, then taxes may apply to any such withdrawals and tax penalties may be assessed on withdrawals made before you attain age 59-1/2.

If your investment advisor has also acted as your insurance agent with respect to the sale of your Policy, he or she may be receiving compensation for services provided both as an insurance agent and

investment advisor. Alternatively, the investment advisor may compensate the insurance agent from whom you purchased your Policy for the referral that led you to enter into your investment advisory relationship with the investment advisor. If you are interested in the details about the compensation that your investment advisor and/or your insurance agent receive in connection with your Policy, you should ask them for more details.

We, or an affiliate of ours, will process the financial transactions placed by your registered insurance agents or investment advisors. We reserve the right to discontinue doing so at any time and for any reason. We may require insurance agents or investment advisors, who are authorized by multiple policyowners to make financial transactions, to enter into an administrative agreement with Western Reserve as a condition of our accepting transactions on your behalf. The administrative agreement may impose limitations on the insurance agent’s or investment advisor’s ability to request financial transactions on your behalf. These limitations, which are discussed in the section entitled “Transfers — Disruptive Trading and Market Timing,” are intended to (i) minimize the detrimental impact of an investment professional who is in a position to transfer large amounts of money for multiple clients in a particular portfolio or type of portfolio or (ii)are intended to comply with specific restrictions or limitations imposed by a portfolio(s) of Western Reserve.

Please note: Limitations that we may impose on your insurance agent or investment advisor under the terms of the administrative agreement do not apply to financial transactions requested by an owner on their own behalf, except as otherwise described in this prospectus.

Policy Values

Cash Value

	•		varies from day to day, depending on the investment experience of the subaccounts you choose, the interest credited to the fixed account, the charges deducted and any other Policy transactions (such as additional premium payments, transfers, withdrawals and Policy loans).

	•		serves as the starting point for calculating values under a Policy.

	•		equals the sum of all values in each subaccount and the fixed account, including any amounts held in the loan reserve account (part of the fixed account) to secure any outstanding Policy loan.

	•		is determined on the Policy date and on each valuation date.

	•		has no guaranteed minimum amount and may be more or less than premiums paid.

Net Surrender Value

The net surrender value is the amount we pay when you surrender your Policy while it is in force. We determine the net surrender value at the end of the valuation period when we receive your written surrender request, in good order, at our mailing address.


Net surrender value on any valuation date equals:	•	the cash value as of such date; minus
	•	any surrender charge as of such date; minus
	•	any outstanding Policy loan amount(s); plus
	•	any interest you paid in advance on the loan(s) for the period between the date of the surrender and the next Policy anniversary.

Subaccount Value

The cash value in a subaccount is referred to as “subaccount value.” At the end of any valuation period, the subaccount value is equal to the number of units that the Policy has in the subaccount, multiplied by the unit value of that subaccount.


The number of units in any subaccount on any valuation date equals:	•	the initial units purchased at unit value on the record date; plus
	•	units purchased with additional net premium(s); plus
	•	units purchased via transfers from another


				subaccount or the fixed account; minus
		•		units redeemed to pay for monthly deductions; minus
		•		units redeemed to pay for cash withdrawals; minus
		•		units redeemed as part of a transfer to another subaccount or the fixed account; minus
		•		units redeemed to pay any cash withdrawal charges and any transfer charges.

Every time you allocate, transfer or withdraw money to or from a subaccount, we convert that dollar amount into units. We determine the number of units we credit to, or subtract from, your Policy by dividing the dollar amount of the allocation, transfer or cash withdrawal by the unit value for that subaccount next determined at the end of the valuation period on which the premium allocation, transfer request or cash withdrawal request is received: (i) at our mailing address (for written requests and payments by check); (ii) at our administrative office (for requests by fax or by telephone, or for payments made through electronic credit and debit transactions); or (iii) electronically through our website.

Subaccount Unit Value

The value (or price) of each subaccount unit will reflect the investment performance of the portfolio in which the subaccount invests. Unit values will vary among subaccounts. The unit value of each subaccount was originally established at $10 per unit. The unit value may increase or decrease from one valuation period to the next.


The unit value of any subaccount at the end of a valuation period is calculated as:	•	the total value of the portfolio shares held in the subaccount, including the value of any dividends or capital gains distribution declared and reinvested by the portfolio during the valuation period. This value is determined by multiplying the number of portfolio shares owned by the subaccount by the portfolio’s net asset value per share determined at the end of the valuation period; minus
	•	a charge equal to the daily net assets of the subaccount multiplied by the daily equivalent of the mortality and expense risk charge; minus
	•	the accrued amount of reserve for any taxes or other economic burden resulting from applying tax laws that we determine to be properly attributable to the subaccount; and the result divided by
	•	the number of outstanding units in the subaccount before the purchase or redemption of any units on that date.

The portfolio in which any subaccount invests will determine its net asset value per share once daily, as of the close of the regular business session of the NYSE (usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) except on customary national holidays on which the NYSE is closed, which coincides with the end of each valuation period.

Fixed Account Value

On the record date, the fixed account value is equal to the cash value allocated to the fixed account from the WRL Transamerica Money Market subaccount.


The fixed account value at the end of any valuation period is equal to:		• • •		the sum of net premium(s) allocated to the fixed account; plus any amounts transferred from a subaccount to the fixed account; plus total interest credited to the fixed account; minus


		•		amounts charged to pay for monthly deductions; minus
		•		amounts withdrawn or surrendered from the fixed account; minus
		•		amounts transferred from the fixed account to a subaccount; minus
		•		amounts withdrawn from the fixed account to pay any transfer charges and any cash withdrawal charges.

Death Benefit

Death Benefit Proceeds

Provided that your Policy is in force, we will determine the amount of and pay the death benefit proceeds on an individual Policy upon receipt, in good order, at our administrative office of satisfactory proof of the insured’s death, plus written direction (from each eligible recipient of death benefit proceeds) regarding distribution of the death benefit payment, and any other documents, forms and information we need. We may require the Policy be returned. We will pay the death benefit proceeds to the primary beneficiary(ies), if living, or to a contingent beneficiary. If each beneficiary dies before the insured and there is no contingent beneficiary, we will pay the death benefit proceeds to the owner or the owner’s estate. We will pay the death benefit proceeds in a lump sum or under a payment option.


Death benefit proceeds equal:	•	the death benefit (described below); minus
	•	any monthly deductions due during the grace period (if applicable); minus
	•	any outstanding loan amount; plus
	•	any additional insurance in force provided by rider; plus
	•	any interest you paid in advance on the loan(s) for the period between the date of death and the next Policy anniversary.

We may further adjust the amount of the death benefit proceeds if we contest the Policy or if you misstate the insured’s age or gender.

Death Benefit

The Policy provides a death benefit. The death benefit is determined at the end of the valuation period in which the insured dies. You must select one of the two death benefit options we offer in your application. No matter which death benefit option you choose, we guarantee that, so long as the Policy does not lapse, the death benefit will never be less than the specified amount on the date of the insured’s death.


Death benefit Option A equals the greater of:		• •		the current specified amount; or a specified percentage called the “limitation percentage,” multiplied by the cash value on the insured’s date of death.

Under Option A, your death benefit remains level unless the limitation percentage multiplied by the cash value is greater than the specified amount; then the death benefit will vary as the cash value varies.

The limitation percentage is the minimum percentage of cash value we must pay as the death benefit under federal tax requirements. It is based on the attained age of the insured at the beginning of each Policy year. The following table indicates the limitation percentages for different ages:


Attained Age		Limitation Percentage
40 and under		250%
41 to 45		250% minus 7% for each age over age 40
46 to 50		215% minus 6% for each age over age 45


Attained Age		Limitation Percentage
51 to 55		185% minus 7% for each age over age 50
56 to 60		150% minus 4% for each age over age 55
61 to 65		130% minus 2% for each age over age 60
66 to 70		120% minus 1% for each age over age 65
71 to 75		115% minus 2% for each age over age 70
76 to 90		105%
91 to 95		105% minus 1% for each age over age 90
96 and older		100%

If the federal tax code requires us to determine the death benefit by reference to these limitation percentages, the Policy is described as “in the corridor.” An increase in the cash value will increase our risk, and we will increase the cost of insurance we deduct from the cash value.

Option A Illustration. Assume that the insured’s attained age is under 40 and that there are no outstanding loans and no withdrawals have been taken. Under Option A, a Policy with a $50,000 specified amount will generally pay $50,000 in death benefits. However, because the death benefit must be equal to or be greater than 250% of cash value, any time the cash value of the Policy exceeds $20,000, the death benefit will exceed the $50,000 specified amount. (The figure $20,000 is derived by solving for cash value in the following calculation: $50,000 = 250% multiplied by cash value.) Each additional dollar added to the cash value above $20,000 will increase the death benefit by $2.50.

Similarly, so long as the cash value exceeds $20,000, each dollar taken out of the cash value will reduce the death benefit by $2.50. If at any time the cash value multiplied by the limitation percentage is less than the specified amount, the death benefit will equal the specified amount of the Policy reduced by the dollar value of any cash withdrawals.

Under Option B, the death benefit always varies as the cash value varies.

Option B Illustration. Assume that the insured’s attained age is under 40 and that there are no outstanding loans. Under Option B, a Policy with a specified amount of $50,000 will generally pay a death benefit of $50,000 plus cash value. Thus, a Policy with a cash value of $10,000 will have a death benefit of $60,000 ($50,000 + $10,000). The death benefit, however, must be at least 250% of cash value. As a result, if the cash value of the Policy exceeds $33,333, the death benefit will be greater than the specified amount plus cash value. (The figure of $33,333 is derived by solving for cash value in the following calculation: 250% multiplied by cash value= $50,000 plus cash value; 250% multiplied by $33,333= $50,000 plus $33,333). Each additional dollar of cash value above $33,333 will increase the death benefit by $2.50.

Similarly, any time cash value exceeds $33,333, each dollar taken out of cash value will reduce the death benefit by $2.50. If at any time, cash value multiplied by the limitation percentage is less than the specified amount plus the cash value, then the death benefit will be the specified amount plus the cash value of the Policy.

Effect of Cash Withdrawals on the Death Benefit

If you choose Option A, a cash withdrawal will reduce the specified amount by an amount equal to the amount of the cash withdrawal. Regardless of the death benefit option you choose, a cash withdrawal will reduce the death benefit by at least the amount of the withdrawal. For a description of the effect of cash withdrawals on the death benefit option that you select, please refer to the section entitled “Surrenders and Cash Withdrawals – Cash Withdrawals” in this prospectus.

Choosing Death Benefit Options

You must choose one death benefit option on your application. This is an important decision. The death benefit option you choose will have an impact on the dollar value of the death benefit, on your cash value, and on the amount of cost of insurance charges you pay.

If you do not select a death benefit option on your application, we will assume you selected death benefit Option A and will ask you to confirm the selection of Option A in writing or choose one of the other death benefit options.

You may find Option A more suitable for you if your goal is to increase your cash value through positive investment experience. You may find Option B more suitable if your goal is to increase your total death benefit.

Changing the Death Benefit Option

After the third Policy year, you may change your death benefit option once each Policy year. We will notify you of the new specified amount.


	•		You may send your written request, in good order, to our mailing address or fax it to us at 1-727-299-1620.


	•		The effective date of the change will be the Monthiversary on or following the date when we receive your request for a change.

	•		You may not make a change that would decrease the specified amount below the minimum specified amount shown on your Policy schedule page.

	•		There may be adverse federal tax consequences. You should consult a tax advisor before changing your Policy’s death benefit option.

If you change your death benefit option from Option B to Option A, we will make the specified amount after the change equal to the specified amount prior to the change, plus your Policy’s cash value on the effective date of the change. If you change your death benefit option from Option A to Option B, we will make the specified amount after the change equal to the specified amount prior to the change, minus the cash value on the effective date of the change. We will notify you of the new specified amount.

Changing the Specified Amount

You may increase or decrease the specified amount, subject to certain conditions. We may limit changes to once each Policy year. A change in specified amount may affect your cost of insurance charge and you may have adverse federal income tax consequences. You should consult a tax advisor before changing your Policy’s specified amount.


Conditions for increasing the specified amount:	•	You may increase the specified amount if:

		>	your Policy has been in force for one year; and

		>	the insured is under age 75.

	•	You may make your request in writing and send it to our mailing address or fax it to us at 1-727-299-1620.

	•	You will require additional evidence of insurability.
	•	The increase in specified amount must be at least $10,000.
	•	An increase in specified amount will take effect on the Monthiversary on or after we have approved your request.
	•	We reserve the right to decline your request.
	•	You do not need to send an additional premium but you must have sufficient net surrender value to cover the next monthly deductions after the increase becomes effective.
	•	If you surrender your Policy, we will charge you an additional surrender charge on any increase in


		specified amount for 15 years after each increase.
	•	If you increase the specified amount but you have not paid sufficient premiums to cover monthly deductions, your Policy will lapse.

Conditions for decreasing the specified amount:	•	You may send your written request, in good order, to our mailing address or fax it to us at 1-727-299-1620.

	•	Your Policy must be in force for three years.
	•	You may not decrease your specified amount if it would disqualify your Policy as life insurance under the Internal Revenue Code.
	•	We may limit the amount of the decrease to no more than 20% of the specified amount
	•	A decrease in specified amount will take effect on the Monthiversary on or after we receive your written request.

Payment Options

There are several ways of receiving proceeds under the death benefit and surrender provisions of the Policy, other than in a lump sum. These are described under “Settlement Options” in this prospectus.

Surrenders and Cash Withdrawals

Surrenders

You must make a written request containing an original signature to surrender your Policy for its net surrender value as calculated at the end of the valuation date on which we receive your request, in good order, at our mailing address. The insured must be alive, the Policy must be in force, and it must be before the maturity date when you make your written request. A surrender is effective as of the date when we receive your written request at our mailing address. You will incur a surrender charge if you surrender the Policy during the first 15 Policy years and an additional surrender charge for 15 years following each increase in specified amount. Written requests to surrender a Policy that are received at our mailing address before the NYSE closes are priced using the subaccount unit value determined at the close of that regular business session of the NYSE (usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). If we receive a written request at our office after the NYSE closes, we will process the surrender request using the subaccount unit value determined at the close of the next regular business session of the NYSE. All surrender requests must be submitted in good order to avoid a delay in processing your request.

Once you surrender your Policy, all coverage and other benefits under it cease and cannot be reinstated. We will normally pay you the net surrender value in a lump sum within seven days or under a settlement option. A surrender may have tax consequences. See Federal Income Tax Considerations.

Cash Withdrawals

After the first Policy year, you may request a cash withdrawal of a portion of your cash value subject to certain conditions. All cash withdrawal requests must be submitted in good order to avoid a delay in processing your request.



Cash withdrawal conditions:	•	You must send your written cash withdrawal request with an original signature to our mailing address. If your withdrawal request is less than $500,000, then you may fax it to us at 1-727-299-1620.


	•	We may allow only one cash withdrawal per Policy year.


	•	We may limit the amount you can withdraw to a minimum of $500, and to no more than 10% of the net surrender value.


		•		The remaining net surrender value after the cash withdrawal must be at least $500.
		•		You may not take a cash withdrawal if it will reduce the specified amount below the minimum specified amount set forth in the Policy.
		•		You may specify the subaccount(s) and the fixed account from which to make the withdrawal. If you do not specify an account, we will take the withdrawal from each account in accordance with your current premium allocation instructions.

		•		We generally will pay a cash withdrawal request within seven days following the valuation date we receive the request in good order, at our mailing address.

		•		We will deduct a processing fee equal to $25 or 2% of the amount you withdraw, whichever is less. We deduct this amount from the withdrawal, and we pay you the balance.
		•		You may not take a cash withdrawal that would disqualify your Policy as life insurance under the Internal Revenue Code.
		•		A cash withdrawal may have tax consequences.

A cash withdrawal will reduce the cash value by the amount of the cash withdrawal, and will reduce the death benefit by at least the amount of the cash withdrawal. When death benefit Option A is in effect, a cash withdrawal will reduce the specified amount by an amount equal to the amount of the cash withdrawal. You also may have to pay higher minimum monthly guarantee premiums. We will not impose a pro rata decrease charge when the specified amount is decreased as a result of taking a cash withdrawal.

When we incur extraordinary expenses, such as overnight mail expenses or wire service fees, for expediting delivery of your partial withdrawal or complete surrender payment, we will deduct that charge from the payment. We currently charge $20 for an overnight delivery ($30 for Saturday delivery) and $25 for wire service. You can obtain further information about these charges by contacting our mailing or administrative office.

Signature Guarantees

Signature guarantees are relied upon as a means of preventing the perpetuation of fraud in financial transactions, including the disbursement of funds or assets from a victim’s account with a financial institution or a provider of financial services. They provide protection to investors by, for example, making it more difficult for a person to take another person’s money by forging a signature on a written request for the disbursement of funds.

As a protection against fraud, we require that the following transaction requests include a Medallion signature guarantee:


	•		all requests for disbursements (i.e., cash withdrawals and surrenders) of $500,000 or more;



	•		any disbursement request made on or within 10 days of our receipt of a request to change the address of record for an owner’s account; and



	•		any disbursement request when Western Reserve has been directed to send proceeds to a different address from the address of record for that owner’s account. Please note: This requirement will not apply to disbursement requests made in connection with exchanges of one annuity policy for another with the same owner in a “tax-free exchange” under Section 1035 of the Internal Revenue Code.

An investor can obtain a signature guarantee from more than 7,000 financial institutions across the United States and Canada that participate in a Medallion signature guarantee program. This includes many:


	•		national and state banks;



	•		savings banks and savings and loan associations;


	•		securities brokers and dealers; and



	•		credit unions.

The best source of a signature guarantee is a bank, savings and loan association, brokerage firm, or credit union with which you do business. Guarantor firms may, but frequently do not, charge a fee for their services.

A notary public cannot provide a signature guarantee. Notarization will not substitute for a signature guarantee.

Loans

General

After the first Policy year (as long as the Policy is in force) you may borrow money from us using the Policy as the only security for the loan. We may permit a loan prior to the first anniversary for Policies issued pursuant to 1035 Exchanges. A loan that is taken from, or secured by, a Policy may have tax consequences. See Federal Income Tax Considerations.


Policy loans are subject to certain conditions:	•	we may require you to borrow at least $500; and
	•	the maximum amount you may borrow is 90% of the cash value, minus any surrender charge and minus any outstanding loan amount.

When you take a loan, we will withdraw an amount equal to the requested loan plus interest in advance until the next Policy anniversary from each of the subaccounts and the fixed account based on your current premium allocation instructions (unless you specify otherwise). We will transfer that amount to the loan reserve account. The loan reserve account is the portion of the fixed account to which amounts are transferred as collateral for a Policy loan.

We normally pay the amount of the loan within seven days after we receive a proper loan request at our mailing address (or, in the limited circumstances described below, by fax at our administrative office). . We may postpone payment of loans under certain conditions.

You may request a loan by telephone by calling us at our administrative office at 1-800-851-9777, Monday – Friday, between the hours of 8:30 a.m. – 7.00 p.m. Eastern time. If the loan amount you request exceeds $500,000, or if the address of record has been changed within the past 10 days, we may reject your request or require a signature guarantee. If you do not want the ability to request a loan by telephone, you should notify us in writing at our mailing address. You will be required to provide certain information for identification purposes when you request a loan by telephone. We may ask you to provide us with written confirmation of your request. We will not be liable for processing a loan request if we believe the request is genuine.

If your request is less than $500,000, then you may fax your loan request to us at 1-727-299-1620. We will not be responsible for any transmittal problems when you fax your request unless you report it to us within five business days and send us proof of your fax transmittal.

You can repay a loan at any time while the Policy is in force. Loan repayments must be sent to our mailing address and will be credited as of the date received. We will consider any payments you make on the Policy to be premium payments unless the payments are clearly identified as loan repayments. Because we do not apply the premium expense charge to loan repayments, it is very important that you indicate clearly if your payment is intended to repay all or a part of a loan.

At each Policy anniversary, we will compare the outstanding loan amount to the amount in the loan reserve account. We will also make this comparison any time you repay all or part of the loan, or make a request to borrow an additional amount. At each such time, if the outstanding loan amount exceeds the amount in the loan reserve account, we will withdraw the difference from the subaccounts and the fixed account and transfer it to the loan reserve account, in the same manner as when a loan is made. If the amount in the loan reserve account exceeds the amount of the outstanding loan, we will withdraw the

difference from the loan reserve account and transfer it to the subaccounts and the fixed account in the same manner as current premiums are allocated. No charge will be imposed for these transfers, and these transfers are not treated as transfers in calculating the transfer charge. We reserve the right to require a transfer to the fixed account if the loans were originally transferred from the fixed account.

Interest Rate Charged

For Policies issued on or after May 1, 1994*, we will charge you an annual interest rate on a Policy loan of 5.2% in advance (5.49% effective annual interest rate after rounding) on each Policy anniversary. Loan interest that is unpaid when due will be added to the amount of the loan on each Policy anniversary and will bear interest at the same rate.


*		For Policies issued before May 1, 1994, we charge you an annual interest rate of 7.4%. For the following states, the annual interest rate on a Policy loan is 7.4% for all Policies issued before, and 5.2% for all Policies issued on or after, the date indicated: Idaho – May 24, 1994; Montana – May 20, 1994; Rhode Island – May 19, 1994; Oregon – June 27, 1994; Minnesota – December 28, 1994; Vermont – February 21, 1996; Puerto Rico – April 18, 1997; New Jersey – April 13, 1995; District of Columbia – November 23, 1998; and Guam – February 11, 1998.

Loan Reserve Account Interest Rate Credited

We will credit the amount in the loan reserve account with an effective annual interest rate of at least 4.0%. We may credit a higher rate, but we are not obligated to do so.

	•		We currently credit interest at an effective annual rate of 4.75% on amounts you borrow during the first ten Policy years.

	•		After the tenth Policy year, on all amounts that you have borrowed, we currently credit interest to part of the cash value in excess of the premiums paid less cash withdrawals and any outstanding loan amount including accrued loan interest at an interest rate equal to the interest rate we charge on the total loan. The remaining portion, equal to the cost basis, is currently credited an effective annual rate of 4.75%*.



*		For Policies issued on or after May 1, 1994. For Policies issued before that date, we credit interest at the following annual effective rates: 6.0% for Policies issued before May 1, 1988, and 6.75% for Policies issued on or after May 1, 1988, but before May 1, 1994.

Effect of Policy Loans

A Policy loan reduces the death benefit proceeds and net surrender value by the amount of any outstanding loan amount. Repaying the loan causes the death benefit proceeds and net surrender value to increase by the amount of the repayment. As long as a loan is outstanding, we hold an amount equal to the loan plus interest charged in advance until the next Policy anniversary in the loan reserve account. This amount is not affected by the separate account’s investment performance, may not be credited with the interest rates accruing on the unloaned portion of the cash value in the fixed account, and, therefore, can affect the Policy’s cash value and death benefit whether or not the loan is repaid. Amounts transferred from the separate account to the loan reserve account will affect the value in the separate account because we credit such amounts with an interest rate declared by us rather than a rate of return reflecting the investment results of the separate account.

We also currently charge interest on Policy loans at an annual interest rate of 5.2% in advance. Because interest is added to the amount of the Policy loan to be repaid, the size of the loan will constantly increase unless the Policy loan is repaid.

There are risks involved in taking a Policy loan, including the potential for a Policy to lapse if projected earnings, taking into account outstanding loans, are not achieved. A Policy loan may also have possible adverse tax consequences. You should consult a tax advisor before taking out a Policy loan.

We will notify you (and any assignee of record) if a loan causes your net surrender value to reach zero. If you do not submit a sufficient payment within 61 days from the date of the notice, your Policy may lapse.

Policy Lapse and Reinstatement

Lapse

Your Policy may not necessarily lapse (terminate without value) if you fail to make a planned periodic payment. However, even if you make all your planned periodic payments, there is a possibility that your Policy will lose value and lapse. This Policy provides a no lapse period. See below. Once your no lapse period ends, or if the no lapse period guarantee is not in effect, your Policy may lapse (terminate without value) if the net surrender value on any Monthiversary is less than the monthly deductions due on that day. Such lapse might occur if unfavorable investment experience, loans and cash withdrawals cause a decrease in the net surrender value, or you have not paid sufficient premiums as discussed below to offset the monthly deductions.

If the net surrender value is not enough to pay the monthly deductions, we will mail a notice to your last known address and any assignee of record. The notice will specify the minimum payment you must pay and the final date by which we must receive the payment to prevent a lapse. We generally require that you make the payment within 61 days after the date of the notice. This 61-day period is called the grace period. We pay the death benefit proceeds if an insured dies during the grace period. If we do not receive the specified minimum payment by the end of the grace period, all coverage under the Policy will terminate without value.

No Lapse Period Guarantee

This Policy provides a no lapse guarantee during the no lapse period. As long as you keep the no lapse period guarantee in effect, your Policy will not lapse and no grace period will begin. Even if your net surrender value is not enough to pay your monthly deductions, the Policy will not lapse so long as the no lapse period guarantee is in effect. The no lapse period guarantee will not extend beyond the no lapse date stated in your Policy. Each month we determine whether the no lapse period is still in effect. If the no lapse period guarantee is not in effect and the Policy is still in force, it can be restored by paying sufficient minimum monthly guarantee premiums at any time before the no lapse date.


No lapse date	•	For a Policy issued to any insured ages 0-60, the no lapse date is the tenth Policy anniversary or anniversary on which the insured’s attained age is 65, whichever is earlier.
	•	For a Policy issued to an insured ages 61-75, the no lapse date is the fifth Policy anniversary.
	•	The no lapse date is specified in your Policy.
Keeping the no lapse period guarantee in effect	•	The no lapse period guarantee coverage will not end if you:
		>	do not increase the specified amount;
		>	do not add any riders; or
		>	pay sufficient minimum monthly guarantee premiums.
	•	You must pay total premiums (minus withdrawals and outstanding loan amounts) that equal at least:
		>	your minimum monthly guarantee premium (shown in your Policy), multiplied by
		>	the number of months since the Policy date (including the current month).

You will lessen the risk of Policy lapse if you keep the no lapse period guarantee in effect. Before you take a cash withdrawal or a loan or increase the specified amount or add a rider you should consider carefully the effect it will have on the no lapse period guarantee.

In addition, if, during the no lapse period, you increase the specified amount or add a rider after the Policy date, your no lapse period will end immediately. If increasing the specified amount or adding a rider would cause your Policy to lapse, we will notify you that the grace period has started.

Policies issued in New Jersey: If the grace period begins during the first three Policy years, the payment necessary to keep the Policy in force is the lesser of the amount necessary to (1) satisfy the

minimum monthly guarantee premium; or (2) increase the net surrender value to cover the monthly deductions due.

Reinstatement

We will reinstate a lapsed Policy within five years after the lapse (and prior to the maturity date). To reinstate the Policy you must:

	•		submit a written application for reinstatement to our mailing address;

	•		provide evidence of insurability that is satisfactory to us;

	•		make a minimum premium payment sufficient to provide a net premium that is large enough to cover three monthly deductions.

We will not reinstate indebtedness (i.e., outstanding loan plus any accrued interest at the time your Policy lapsed). The cash value of the loan reserve on the reinstatement date will be zero. Your net surrender value on the reinstatement date will equal the net premiums you pay at reinstatement, minus one monthly deductions and any surrender charge. The reinstatement date for your Policy will be the Monthiversary on or following the day we approve your application for reinstatement. We may decline a request for reinstatement.

Extension of No Lapse Guarantee Period

Subject to state approval, Policies in force on May 1, 2009 where the No Lapse date indicated on the Policy Schedule page is in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 or 2011, will have the No Lapse date extended to the Policy Anniversary in 2012. The minimum monthly guarantee premium will not be changed, but if a cash withdrawal or a loan has been taken, or if requested in the future, additional minimum premiums may need to be paid to maintain the No Lapse guarantee. If an affected Policy lapses and is reinstated before January 1, 2012, the extended No Lapse date will remain in effect.

Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following summarizes some of the basic federal income tax considerations associated with a Policy and does not purport to be complete or to cover all situations. This discussion is not intended as tax advice. Please consult counsel or other qualified tax advisors for more complete information. We base this discussion on our understanding of the present federal income tax laws as they are currently interpreted by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”). Federal income tax laws and the current interpretations by the IRS may change.

Tax Status of the Policy

A Policy must satisfy certain requirements set forth in the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) in order to qualify as a life insurance policy for federal income tax purposes and to receive the tax treatment normally accorded life insurance policies under federal tax law. Guidance as to how these requirements are to be applied is limited. Nevertheless, we believe that this Policy should generally satisfy the applicable Code requirements. It is also uncertain whether death benefits under policies where the maturity date has been extended will be excludible from the beneficiary’s gross income and whether policy cash value will be deemed to be distributed to you on the original maturity date. Such a deemed distribution may be taxable. If it is subsequently determined that a Policy does not satisfy the applicable requirements, we may take appropriate steps to bring the Policy into compliance with such requirements and we reserve the right to restrict Policy transactions in order to do so.

In certain circumstances, owners of variable life insurance policies have been considered for federal income tax purposes to be the owners of the assets of the separate account supporting their policies due to their ability to exercise investment control over those assets. Where this is the case, the policyowners have been currently taxed on income and gains attributable to the separate account assets. There is little guidance in this area, and some features of the Policies, such as your flexibility to allocate premiums and cash values, have not been explicitly addressed in published rulings. We believe that the Policy does not give you investment control over separate account assets.

In addition, the Code requires that the investments of the separate account be “adequately diversified” in order to treat the Policy as a life insurance policy for federal income tax purposes. We intend that the separate account, through the portfolios, will satisfy these diversification requirements.

The following discussion assumes that the Policy will qualify as a life insurance policy for federal income tax purposes.

Tax Treatment of Policy Benefits

In General. We believe that the Policy described in this prospectus is a life insurance policy under Code Section 7702. Section 7702 affects the taxation of life insurance policies and places limits on the relationship of the accumulation value to the death benefit. As life insurance policies, the death benefits of the policies are generally excludable from the gross income of the beneficiaries. In the absence of any guidance from the IRS on the issue, we believe that providing an amount at risk after age 99 in the manner provided should be sufficient to maintain the excludability of the death benefit after age 99. However, lack of specific IRS guidance makes the tax treatment of the death benefit after age 99 uncertain. Also, any increase in accumulation value should generally not be taxable until received by you or your designee. However, if your Policy is a modified endowment contract you may be taxed when you take a Policy loan, pledge or assign the Policy. Federal, state and local transfer, estate and other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of Policy proceeds depend on your circumstances and the beneficiary’s circumstances. A tax advisor should be consulted on these consequences.

Generally, you will not be deemed to be in constructive receipt of the cash value until there is a distribution. When distributions from a Policy occur, or when loans are taken out from or secured by a Policy (e.g., by assignment), the tax consequences depend on whether the Policy is classified as a “Modified Endowment Contract” (“MEC”). Moreover, if a loan from a Policy that is not a MEC is outstanding when the Policy is canceled or lapses, the amount of outstanding indebtedness will be used to determine the amount distributed and will be taxed accordingly.

Modified Endowment Contracts. Under the Code, certain life insurance policies are classified as MECs and receive less favorable tax treatment than other life insurance policies. The rules are too complex to summarize here, but generally depend on the amount of premiums paid during the first seven Policy years or in the seven Policy years following certain changes in the Policy. Certain changes in the Policy after it is issued could also cause the Policy to be classified as a MEC. Due to the Policy’s flexibility, each Policy’s circumstances will determine whether the Policy is classified as a MEC. Among other things, a reduction in benefits could cause a Policy to become a MEC. If you do not want your Policy to be classified as a MEC, you should consult a tax advisor to determine the circumstances, if any, under which your Policy would or would not be classified as a MEC.

Upon issue of your Policy, we will notify you as to whether or not your Policy is classified as a MEC based on the initial premium we receive. If your Policy is not a MEC at issue, then you will also be notified of the maximum amount of additional premiums you can pay without causing your Policy to be classified as a MEC. If a payment would cause your Policy to become a MEC, you and your agent will be notified. At that time, you will need to notify us if you want to continue your Policy as a MEC. Unless you notify us that you do want to continue your Policy as a MEC, we will refund the dollar amount of the excess premium (if returned prior to crediting the premium, or it will be returned, with interest, within 60 days of year end if the premium has been credited) that would cause the Policy to become a MEC.

Distributions (other than Death Benefits) from MECs. Policies classified as MECs are subject to the following tax rules:

	•		All distributions other than death benefits from a MEC, including distributions upon surrender and cash withdrawals, will be treated first as distributions of gain taxable as ordinary income. They will be treated as tax-free recovery of the owner’s investment in the Policy only after all gain has been distributed. Your investment in the Policy is generally your total premium payments. When a distribution is taken from the Policy, your investment in the Policy is reduced by the amount of the distribution that is tax-free.


	•		Loans taken from or secured by (e.g., by assignment) such a Policy are treated as distributions and taxed accordingly. If the Policy is part of a collateral assignment split dollar arrangement, the initial assignment as well as increases in cash value during the assignment may be treated as distributions and considered taxable.

	•		A 10% additional federal income tax is imposed on the amount included in income except where the distribution or loan is made when you have attained age 59 ¹/2 or are disabled, or where the distribution is part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments for your life (or life expectancy) or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of you and the beneficiary.

	•		If a Policy becomes a MEC, distributions that occur during the Policy year will be taxed as distributions from a MEC. In addition, distributions from a Policy within two years before it becomes a MEC will be taxed in this manner. This means that a distribution from a Policy that is not a MEC at the time when the distribution is made could later become taxable as a distribution from a MEC.

Distributions (other than Death Benefits) from Policies that are not MECs. Distributions from a Policy that is not a MEC are generally treated first as a recovery of your investment in the Policy, and as taxable income after the recovery of all investment in the Policy. However, certain distributions which must be made in order to enable the Policy to continue to qualify as a life insurance policy for federal income tax purposes if Policy benefits are reduced during the first 15 Policy years may be treated in whole or in part as ordinary income subject to tax. Distributions from or loans from or secured by a Policy that is not a MEC are not subject to the 10% additional tax.

Policy Loans. Loans from or secured by a Policy that is not a MEC are generally not treated as distributions. Instead, such loans are treated as indebtedness. If a loan from a Policy that is not a MEC is outstanding when the Policy is surrendered or lapses, the amount of the outstanding indebtedness will be taxed as if it were a distribution at that time. The tax consequences associated with Policy loans outstanding after the first 10 Policy years with preferred loan rates are less clear and a tax advisor should be consulted about such loans.

Multiple Policies. All MECs that we issue (or that our affiliates issue) to the same owner during any calendar year are treated as one MEC for purposes of determining the amount includible in the owner’s income when a distribution, loan, pledge or assignment occurs.

Investment in the Policy. Your investment in the Policy is generally the sum of the premium payments you made. When a distribution from the Policy occurs, your investment in the Policy is reduced by the amount of the distribution that is tax-free.

Deductibility of Policy Loan Interest. In general, interest you pay on a loan from a Policy will not be deductible. Before taking out a Policy loan, you should consult a tax advisor as to the tax consequences.

Withholding. To the extent that Policy distributions are taxable, they are generally subject to withholding for the recipient’s federal income tax liability. The federal income tax withholding rate is generally 10% of the taxable amount of the distribution. Withholding applies only if the taxable amount of all distributions are at least $200 during a taxable year. Some states also require withholding for state income taxes. With the exception of amounts that represent eligible rollover distributions from Pension Plans and 403(b) arrangements, which are subject to mandatory withholding of 20% for federal tax, recipients can generally elect, however, not to have tax withheld from distributions. If the taxable distributions are delivered to foreign countries, U.S. persons may not elect out of withholding. Taxable distributions to non-resident aliens are generally subject to withholding at a 30% rate unless withholding is eliminated under an international treaty with the United States.

Business Uses of the Policy. The Policy may be used in various arrangements, including nonqualified deferred compensation or salary continuance plans, split dollar insurance plans, executive bonus plans, retiree medical benefit plans and others. The tax consequences of such plans and business uses of the Policy may vary depending on the particular facts and circumstances of each individual arrangement and business uses of the Policy. Therefore, if you are contemplating using the Policy in any such arrangement, you should be sure to consult a tax advisor as to tax attributes of the arrangement and in its use of life insurance. In recent years, moreover, Congress and the IRS have adopted new rules relating to nonqualified deferred compensation and to life insurance owned by businesses and life insurance used in split-dollar arrangements. The IRS has recently issued new guidance regarding concerns in the use of life insurance in employee welfare benefit plans, including, but not limited to, the deduction of employer contributions and the status of such plans as listed transactions. Any business contemplating the purchase of a new Policy or a change in an existing Policy should consult a tax advisor. Recent legislation under Section 101(j) of the Internal Revenue Code has imposed notice, consent and other provisions on policies

owned by employers and certain of their affiliates, owners and employees, to receive death benefits tax-free and added additional reporting requirements.

Alternative Minimum Tax. There also may be an indirect tax upon the income in the Policy or the proceeds of a Policy under the federal corporate alternative minimum tax, if the policyowner is subject to that tax.

Terminal Illness Accelerated Death Benefit Rider. We believe that the single-sum payment we make under this rider should be fully excludible from the gross income of the beneficiary, except in certain business contexts. You should consult a tax advisor about the consequences of adding this rider to your Policy, or requesting a single-sum payment.

Continuation of Policy Beyond Age 100. The tax consequences of continuing the Policy beyond the insured’s attained age 100 are unclear and may include taxation of the gain in the Policy at the original maturity date or the taxation of the death benefit in whole or in part. You should consult a tax advisor if you intend to keep the Policy in force beyond the insured’s attained age 100.

Other Tax Considerations. The transfer of the Policy or designation of a beneficiary may have federal, state, and/or local transfer and inheritance tax consequences, including the imposition of gift, estate, and generation-skipping transfer taxes. The individual situation of each owner or beneficiary will determine the extent, if any, to which federal, state, and local transfer and inheritance taxes may be imposed and how ownership or receipt of Policy proceeds will be treated for purposes of federal, state and local estate, inheritance, generation-skipping and other taxes.

Special Rules for Pension Plans and Section 403(b) Arrangements. If the Policy is purchased in connection with a section 401(a) qualified pension or profit sharing plan, including a section 401(k) plan, or in connection with a section 403(b) plan or program, federal and state and estate tax consequences could differ from those stated in this prospectus. The purchase may also affect the qualified status of the plan. You should consult a qualified tax advisor in connection with such purchase.

Policies owned under these types of plans may be subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, or ERISA, which may impose additional requirements on the purchase of policies by such plans. You should consult a qualified advisor regarding ERISA.

Other Policy Information

Settlement Options

If you surrender the Policy, you may elect to receive the net surrender value in either a lump sum or as a series of regular income payments under one of the three settlement options described below. In either event, life insurance coverage ends. Also, when the surviving insured dies, the beneficiary may apply the lump sum death benefit proceeds to one of the same settlement options. If the regular payment under a settlement option would be less than $20, we will instead pay the proceeds in one lump sum. We may make other settlement options available in the future.

Once we begin making payments under a settlement option, you or the beneficiary will no longer have any value in the subaccounts or the fixed account. Instead, the only entitlement will be the amount of the regular payment for the period selected under the terms of the settlement option chosen. Depending upon the circumstances, the effective date of a settlement option is the surrender date or the surviving insured’s date of death.

Under any settlement option, the dollar amount of each payment will depend on four things:


	•		the amount of the surrender on the surrender date or death benefit proceeds on the surviving insured’s date of death;



	•		the interest rate we credit on those amounts (we guarantee a minimum annual interest rate of 3.0%);



	•		the mortality tables we use; and



	•		the specific payment option(s) you choose.



Option 1—Equal Monthly Installments for a Fixed Period	•	We will pay the proceeds, plus interest, in equal monthly installments for a fixed period of your choice, but not longer than 240 months.

	•	We will stop making payments once we have made all the payments for the period selected.

Option 2—Equal Monthly Installments for Life (Life Income)	At your or the beneficiary’s direction, we will make equal monthly installments:

	•	only for the life of the payee

	•	for the longer of the payee’s life

	•	for the longer of the payee’s life

	•	only for the life of the payee

Option 3—Equal Monthly Installments for the Life of the Payee and then to a Designated Survivor (Joint and Survivor)	•	We will make equal monthly payments during the joint lifetime of two persons, first to a chosen payee, and then to a co-payee, if living, upon the death of the payee.

	•	Payments to the co-payee, if living, upon the payee’s death will equal either:

		>	the full amount paid to the payee before the payee’s death; or

		>	two-thirds of the amount paid to the payee before the payee’s death.

	•	All payments will cease upon the death of the co-payee.

Benefits at Maturity

If the insured is living and the Policy is in force, the Policy will mature on the Policy anniversary nearest the insured’s 95^th birthday. This is the maturity date. On the maturity date we will pay you the net surrender value of your Policy.

If your Policy was issued before May 1, 1999, and you send a written request to our mailing address, we may extend the maturity date if your Policy is still in force on the maturity date and there are no adverse tax consequences in doing so. You must submit a written request to our mailing address for the extension between 90 and 180 days prior to the maturity date. We must agree to the extension.

If your Policy was issued on or after May 1, 1999, and you send a written request to our mailing address, we will extend the maturity date if your Policy is still in force on the maturity date. Any riders in force on the scheduled maturity date will terminate on that date and will not be extended. Interest on any outstanding Policy loans will continue to accrue during the period for which the maturity date is extended. You must submit a written request to our office for the extension between 90 and 180 days prior to the maturity date and elect one of the following:

	1.		If you had previously selected death benefit Option B, we will change the death benefit to Option A. On each valuation date, we will adjust the specified amount to equal the cash value, and the limitation percentage will be 100%. We will not permit you to make additional premium payments unless it is required to prevent the Policy from lapsing. We will waive all future monthly deductions; or

	2.		We will automatically extend the maturity date until the next Policy anniversary. You must submit a written request to our office, between 90 and 180 days before each subsequent Policy anniversary, stating that you wish to extend the maturity date for another Policy year. All benefits and charges will continue as set forth in your Policy. We will charge the then current cost of insurance rates.

If you choose 2 above, you may change your election to 1 above at any time. However, if you choose 1 above, then you may not change your election to 2 above.

The tax consequences of extending the maturity date beyond the 100^th birthday of the insured are uncertain and may include taxation of the gain in the Policy at the original maturity date or taxation of the death benefit in whole or in part. You should consult a tax advisor as to those consequences.

Retained Asset Accounts

When a death benefit is paid in a lump sum and is $15,000 or greater, your beneficiary may elect to have the death benefit deposited into an interest-bearing account, called the Assurance Plus Account, with the Northern Trust Company. We will send the beneficiary a “checkbook” and the beneficiary will have access to the account simply by writing a “draft” for all or part of the amount of the death benefit. Upon receipt of the “draft” by the bank, the bank will draw down the amount you requested from our general account. The Assurance Plus Account is part of our general account. It is not a bank account, and it is not insured by the FDIC or any other government agency. As part of our general account, it is subject to the claims of our creditors. We may make a profit on all amounts left in the Assurance Plus Account. (The Assurance Plus Account is not available in all states.

Payments We Make

We usually pay the amounts of any surrender, cash withdrawal, death benefit proceeds, or settlement options within seven calendar days after we receive all applicable written notices and/or due proofs of death at our mailing address. However, we can postpone such payments if:

	•		the NYSE is closed, other than customary weekend and holiday closing, or trading on the NYSE is restricted as determined by the SEC; or

	•		the SEC permits, by an order, the postponement for the protection of policyowners; or

	•		the SEC determines that an emergency exists that would make the disposal of securities held in the separate account or the determination of their value not reasonably practicable.

If you have submitted a recent check or draft, we have the right to defer payment of surrenders, cash withdrawals, death benefit proceeds, or payments under a settlement option until such check or draft has been honored. We also reserve the right to defer payment of transfers, cash withdrawals, death benefit proceeds, or surrenders from the fixed account for up to six months.

If mandated under applicable law, we may be required to reject a premium payment and/or block a policyowner’s account and thereby refuse to pay any request for transfers, withdrawals, surrenders, loans or death benefits until instructions are received from the appropriate regulators. We may also be required to provide additional information about you or your account to governmental regulators.

Split Dollar Arrangements

You may enter into a split dollar arrangement with another owner or another person(s) whereby the payment of premiums and the right to receive the benefits under the Policy (i.e., cash surrender value of insurance proceeds) are split between the parties. There are different ways of allocating these rights.

For example, an employer and employee might agree that under a Policy on the life of the employee, the employer will pay the premiums and will have the right to receive the cash surrender value. The employee may designate the beneficiary to receive any insurance proceeds in excess of the cash surrender value. If the employee dies while such an arrangement is in effect, the employer would receive from the insurance proceeds the amount that he would have been entitled to receive upon surrender of the Policy and the employee’s beneficiary would receive the balance of the proceeds.

No transfer of Policy rights pursuant to a split dollar arrangement will be binding on us unless in writing and received by us at our mailing address. Split dollar arrangements may have tax consequences. You should consult a tax advisor before entering into a split dollar arrangement.

On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law significant accounting and corporate governance reform legislation, known as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Act”). The Act prohibits, with limited exceptions, publicly-traded companies, including non-U.S. companies that have securities listed on exchanges in the United States, from extending, directly or through a subsidiary, many types of personal loans to their directors or executive officers. It is possible that this prohibition may be interpreted as applying to split-dollar life insurance policies for directors and executive officers of such companies, since such insurance arguably can be viewed as involving a loan from the employer for at least some purposes.

Although the prohibition on loans of publicly-traded companies is generally effective as of July 30, 2002, there is an exception for loans outstanding as of the date of enactment, so long as there is no

material modification to the loan terms and the loan is not renewed after July 30, 2002. Any affected business contemplating the payment of a premium on an existing Policy, or the purchase of a new Policy, in connection with a split-dollar life insurance arrangement should consult legal counsel.

In addition, the IRS issued guidance that affects the tax treatment of split-dollar arrangements and the Treasury Department issued final regulations that would significantly affect the tax treatment of such arrangements. The IRS guidance and the final regulations affect all split dollar arrangements, not just those involving publicly-traded companies. Consult your qualified tax advisor with respect to the effect of this current and proposed guidance on your split dollar policy.

Assignment of the Policy

You may assign the contract by giving us written notice. We reserve the right, except to the extent prohibited by applicable laws, regulations, or actions of the State insurance commissioner, to require that the assignment will be effective only upon acceptance by us, and to refuse assignments or transfers at any time on a non-discriminatory basis.

Policy Termination

Your Policy will terminate on the earliest of:

•		the maturity date;

•		the end of the grace period; or

•		the date the insured dies;

•		the date the Policy is surrendered.

Supplemental Benefits (Riders)

The following supplemental benefits (riders) are available and may be added to a Policy. Monthly charges for these riders are deducted from the cash value as part of the monthly deductions. The riders available with the Policies do not build cash value and provide benefits that do not vary with the investment experience of the separate account. For purposes of the riders, the primary insured is the person insured under the Policy. These riders may not be available in all states, certain benefits and features may vary by state and they may be available under a different name in some states. Adding these supplemental benefits to an existing Policy or canceling them may have tax consequences; you should consult a tax advisor before doing so.

Children’s Insurance Rider

This rider provides a face amount of insurance on the primary insured’s children. Our current minimum face amount for this rider for issue ages 15 days — 18 years of age is $2,000. The maximum face amount is $10,000. At each child’s age 25 or upon the death of the primary insured, whichever happens first, this rider may be converted to a new policy on each child insured with a maximum face amount of up to five times the face amount of the rider. We will pay a death benefit once we receive proof, in good order at our administrative office, that the insured child died while both the rider and coverage were in force for that child. If the primary insured dies while the rider is in force, we will terminate the rider 31 days after the death, and we will offer a separate life insurance policy to each insured child.

Accidental Death Benefit Rider

Our current minimum face amount for this rider for issue ages 15-59 is $10,000. The maximum face amount available for this rider is $150,000 (up to 150% of specified amount).

Subject to certain limitations, we will pay a face amount if the primary insured’s death results solely from accidental bodily injury where:

	•		the death is caused by external, violent, and accidental means;

	•		the death occurs within 90 days of the accident; and

	•		the death occurs while the rider is in force.

The rider will terminate on the earliest of:

	•		the Policy anniversary nearest the primary insured’s 70^th birthday;

	•		the date the Policy terminates; or

	•		the Monthiversary when the rider terminates at the owner’s request.

Other Insured Rider

This rider may insure the spouse (or a non-spouse Other Insured where required by state law) and/or dependent children of the primary insured. Please note that if a non-spouse Other Insured, as required under state law, is the insured, there may be adverse tax consequences. Subject to the terms of the rider, we will pay the face amount of the rider to the primary insured. Our current minimum face amount for this rider for issue ages 0-80 is $10,000. The maximum face amount is the lesser of $500,000 or the amount of coverage on the primary insured. The maximum number of Other Insured Riders that is allowed on any one Policy is five (5). We will pay the rider’s face amount when we receive proof at our mailing address of the Other Insured’s death. Subject to the following conditions, on any Monthiversary while the rider is in force, you may convert it to a new policy on the Other Insured’s life (without evidence of insurability).


Conditions to convert the rider:	•	your request must be in writing and sent to our mailing address;

	•	the Other Insured has not reached his/her 70^th birthday;

	•	the new policy is any permanent insurance policy that we currently offer;

	•	subject to the minimum specified amount required for the new policy, the amount of the insurance under the new policy will equal the face amount in force under the rider as long as it meets the minimum specified amount requirements of the original Policy; and

	•	We will base your premium on the Other Insured’s underwriting class under the rider.

Termination of the rider:	The rider will terminate on the earliest of:

	•	the maturity date of the Policy;

	•	the Policy anniversary nearest to the insured’s 95^th birthday;

	•	the date the Policy terminates for any reason except for death of the primary insured;

	•	the date of conversion of this rider; or

	•	the Monthiversary on which the rider is terminated upon written request by the owner.

Disability Waiver Rider

Subject to certain conditions, we will waive the Policy’s monthly deductions while the insured is disabled. This rider may be purchased if your issue age is 15-55 years of age. We must receive proof at our mailing address that:

	•		the insured is totally disabled;

	•		the rider was in force when the insured became disabled;

	•		the insured became disabled before the Policy anniversary nearest his/her 60^th birthday; and

	•		the insured is continuously disabled for at least six months.

We will not waive any deduction that becomes due more than one year before we receive written notice of your claim at our mailing address.

Disability Waiver and Income Rider

This rider has the same benefits as the Disability Waiver Rider, but adds a monthly income benefit for up to 120 months. This rider may be purchased if the insured’s issue age is 15-55 years of age. The

minimum income amount for this rider is $10. The maximum income amount is the lesser of 0.2% of your specified amount or $300 per month.

Primary Insured Rider (“PIR”) and Primary Insured Rider Plus (“PIR Plus”)

Under the PIR and the PIR Plus, we provide term insurance coverage on a different basis from the coverage in your Policy.


Features of PIR and PIR Plus:	•	The rider increases the Policy’s death benefit by the rider’s face amount;


	•	The PIR may be purchased from issue ages 0-70;

	•	The PIR Plus may be purchased from issue ages 18-70;

	•	The PIR terminates when the insured turns 90, and the PIR Plus terminates when the insured turns 85;

	•	The minimum purchase amount for the PIR and PIR Plus is $25,000. There is no maximum purchase amount;

	•	We do not assess any additional surrender charge for PIR and PIR Plus;

	•	Generally PIR and PIR Plus coverage costs less than the insurance coverage under the Policy, but has no cash value;

	•	You may cancel or reduce your rider coverage without decreasing your Policy’s specified amount; and

	•	You may generally decrease your specified amount without reducing your rider coverage.

Conditions to convert the rider:
	•	Your request must be in writing, in good order, and sent to our mailing address;

	•	The primary insured has not reached his/her 70^th birthday;

	•	The new policy is any permanent insurance policy that we currently offer;

	•	Subject to the minimum specified amount required for the new policy, the amount of the insurance under the new policy will equal the specified amount in force under the rider as long as it meets the minimum specified amount requirements of a Base Policy; and

	•	We will base your premium on the primary insured’s underwriting class under the rider.

Termination of the rider:	The rider will terminate on the earliest of:

	•	when the insured turns 90 for a PIR and when the insured turns 85 for PIR Plus; or

	•	the date the Policy terminates for any reason except for the death of the primary insured; or

	•	the date you fully convert the rider; or

	•	the Monthiversary on which you terminate the rider by written request in good order, to our mailing address.

It may cost you less to reduce your PIR or PIR Plus coverage than to decrease your Policy’s specified amount, because we do not deduct a surrender charge in connection with your PIR or PIR Plus. It may cost you more to keep a higher specified amount under the Base Policy, because the specified amount

may have a cost of insurance that is higher than the cost of the same amount of coverage under your PIR or PIR Plus.

You should consult your registered representative to determine if you would benefit from PIR or PIR Plus. We may discontinue offering PIR or PIR Plus at any time. We may also modify the terms of these riders for new policies.

Terminal Illness Accelerated Death Benefit Rider

This rider allows us to pay all or a portion of the death benefit once we receive satisfactory proof in good order, at our administrative office that the insured is ill and has a life expectancy of one year or less. A doctor must certify the insured’s life expectancy.

We will pay a “single-sum benefit” equal to:

	•		the death benefit on the date we pay the single-sum benefit; multiplied by

	•		the election percentage of the death benefit you elect to receive; divided by

	•		1 + i (“i” equals the interest rate determined under the Internal Revenue Code Section 846(c)(2) (also known as the Applicable Federal Interest Rate) or the Policy loan interest rate expressed in arrears, whichever is greater) (“discount factor”); minus

	•		any indebtedness at the time we pay the single-sum benefit, multiplied by the election percentage.

The maximum terminal illness death benefit used to determine the single-sum benefit as defined above is equal to:

	•		the death benefit available under the Policy once we receive satisfactory proof that the insured is ill; plus

	•		the benefit available under any PIR or PIR Plus in force.

	•		A single-sum benefit may not be greater than $500,000.

The election percentage is a percentage that you select. It may not be greater than 100%.

We will not pay a benefit under the rider if the insured’s terminal condition results from self-inflicted injuries that occur during the period specified in your Policy’s suicide provision.

The rider terminates at the earliest of:

	•		the date the Policy terminates;

	•		the date a settlement option takes effect;

	•		the date we pay a single-sum benefit; or

	•		the date you terminate the rider.

We do not assess an administrative charge for this rider; however, we do reduce the single sum benefit by a discount factor to compensate us for lost income due to the early payment of the death benefit. This rider may not be available in all states, or its terms may vary depending on a state’s insurance law requirements.

For example, suppose before the owner elects the single sum benefit, a Policy has a $400,000 death benefit and a $10,000 loan balance. The Applicable Federal Interest Rate for 2009 is 4.09% and the Policy loan interest rate is 5.2% in advance, or 5.49 in arrears (Policies issued before a certain date would use 7.4% in advance; see “Loans” in this prospectus). Because the greater of these is 5.49%, that is the interest rate that will be used to discount the single sum benefit. The owner elects to accelerate 50% of the death benefit, so the single sum benefit equals $184,600, which is [($400,000 x 0.50 / 1.0549) — ($10,000 x 0.50)]. After the acceleration, the remaining death benefit is $200,000, which is 50% of $400,000, and all Policy values will be reduced by 50%.

The tax consequences of adding this rider to an existing Policy or requesting payment under the rider are uncertain and you should consult a tax advisor before doing so.

Additional Information

Sending Forms and Transaction Requests in Good Order

We cannot process your instructions to process a transaction relating to the policy until we have received your instructions in good order at our mailing address. “Good order” means the actual receipt by us of the instructions relating to a transaction in writing—or, when appropriate, by telephone or facsimile, or electronically—along with all forms, information and supporting legal documentation (including any required spousal or joint owner’s consents) we require in order to effect the transaction. To be in “good order,” instructions must be sufficiently clear so that we do not need to exercise any discretion to follow such instructions.

Sale of the Policies

Distribution and Principal Underwriting Agreement. Our affiliate, TCI , serves as principal underwriter for the Policies. We entered into a principal underwriting and distribution agreement with TCI, for the distribution and sale of the Policies, effective May 1, 2007. We reimburse TCI for certain expenses it incurs in order to pay for the distribution of the Policies (e.g., commissions payable to selling firms selling the Policies, as described below.)

Compensation to Broker-Dealers Selling the Policies. The Policies are offered to the public through broker-dealers (“selling firms”) that are licensed under the federal securities laws; the selling firm and/or its affiliates are also licensed under state insurance laws. The selling firms have entered into written selling agreements with us and with TCI as principal underwriter for the Policies. We pay commissions through TCI to the selling firms for their sales of the Policies.

A limited number of affiliated and unaffiliated broker-dealers may also be paid commissions and overrides to “wholesale” the Policies, that is, to provide sales support and training to sales representatives at selling firms. We may also provide compensation to a limited number of broker-dealers for providing ongoing service in relation to Policies that have already been purchased.

The selling firms are paid commissions for the promotion and sale of the Policies according to one or more schedules. The amount and timing of commissions may vary depending on the selling agreement. The sales commission paid to broker-dealers during 2008 was, on average, 64% of all premiums made during Policy years 2 — 10. We will pay an additional trail commission of up to 0.25% of the Policy’s subaccount value (excluding the fixed account) on the Policy anniversary if the cash value (minus amounts attributable to loans) equals at least $10,000. Additional sales commissions may also be payable on premiums paid as a result of an increase in specified amount. Some selling firms may be required to return first year commissions (less surrender charge) if the Policy is not continued through the first two Policy years.

To the extent permitted by FINRA rules, Western Reserve, ISI and other affiliated parties may pay (or allow other broker-dealers to provide) promotional incentives or payments in the form of cash or non-cash compensation or reimbursement to some, but not all, selling firms and their sales representatives. These arrangements are sometimes referred to as “revenue sharing” arrangements and are described further below.

The registered representative who sells you the Policy typically receives a portion of the compensation we (and our affiliates) pay to the selling firms, depending on the agreement between the selling firm and its registered representative and the firm’s internal compensation program. These programs may include other types of cash and non-cash compensation and other benefits. Ask your sales representative for further information about the compensation your sales representative, and the selling firm that employs your sales representative, may receive in connection with your purchase of a Policy. Also inquire about any revenue sharing arrangements that we and our affiliates may have with the selling firm, including the conflicts of interests that such arrangements may create.

Special Compensation For Affiliated Wholesaling and Selling Firms. Our parent company provides paid-in capital to TCI and pays for TCI’s operating and other expenses, including costs for facilities, legal and accounting services, and other internal administrative functions.

Western Reserve’s two main distribution channels are ISI and WGS, both affiliates, who sell Western Reserve products.

Western Reserve underwrites the cost of ISI’s various facilities, third-party services and internal administrative functions, including employee salaries, sales representative training and computer systems, that are provided directly to ISI. These facilities and services are necessary for ISI’s administration and operation, and Western Reserve is compensated by ISI for these expenses based on ISI’s usage. In addition, Western Reserve and other affiliates pay for certain sales expenses of ISI, including the costs of preparing and producing prospectuses and sales promotional materials for the Policy.

Sales representatives and their managers at ISI and WGS may receive directly or indirectly additional cash benefits and non-cash compensation or reimbursements from us or our affiliates. Additional compensation or reimbursement arrangements may include payments in connection with the firm’s conferences or seminars, sales or training programs for invited selling representatives and other employees, seminars for the public, trips (such as travel, lodging and meals in connection therewith), entertainment, merchandise and other similar items, and payments, loans or loan guaranties to assist a firm or representative in connection with systems, operating, marketing and other business expenses. The amounts may be significant and may provide us with increased access to the sales representatives.

In addition, ISI’s managers and/or sales representatives who meet certain productivity standards may be eligible for additional compensation. Sales of the Policies by affiliated selling firms may help sales representatives and/or their managers qualify for certain benefits, and may provide such persons with special incentive to sell our Policies. For example, ISI’s and WGS’s registered representatives, general agents, marketing directors and supervisors may be eligible to participate in a voluntary stock purchase plan that permits participants to purchase stock of AEGON N.V. (Western Reserve’s ultimate parent) by allocating a portion of the commissions they earn to purchase such shares. A portion of the contributions of commissions by ISI’s representatives may be matched by ISI. ISI’s and WGS’s registered representatives may also be eligible to participate in a stock option and award plan. Registered representatives who meet certain production goals will be issued options on the stock of AEGON N.V.

Additional Compensation that We Pay to Selected Selling Firms. We may pay certain selling firms additional cash amounts for “preferred product” treatment of the Policies in their marketing programs in order to receive enhanced marketing services and increased access to their sales representatives. In exchange for providing us with access to their distribution network, such selling firms may receive additional compensation or reimbursement for, among other things, the hiring and training of sales personnel, marketing, sponsoring of conferences and seminars, and/or other services they provide to us and our affiliates. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we and other parties may allow other non-cash incentives and compensation to be paid to these selling firms. These special compensation arrangements are not offered to all selling firms and the terms of such arrangements may differ between selling firms.

Special compensation arrangements are calculated in different ways by different selling firms and may be based on past or anticipated sales of the Policies or other criteria. For instance, Western Reserve made flat fee payments to several selling firms with payments ranging from $950 to $20,000 in 2008 for the sales of the Western Reserve’s insurance products.

During 2008, we had entered into “preferred product” arrangements with ISI, WGS, Broker Dealer Financial Services, Inc., Coordinated Capital Securities, Inc., First Founder Securities, Inc., Girard Securities, Inc., H. Beck, Inc., Harbour Investments, Inc., IMS, Next Financial Group, Inc., Packerland Brokerage Services, Inc., Summit Brokerage Services, Inc., and Workman Securities Corporation. We paid the following amounts (in addition to sales commissions and expense allowances) to these firms:


	Aggregate Amount
Name of Firm	Paid During 2008
Broker Dealer Financial Services Corp	$	3,250
Coordinated Capital Securities, Inc.	$	2,000
First Founders Securities, Inc.	$	10,000
Girard Securities, Inc.	$	14,000
H. Beck, Inc.	$	18,000
Harbour Investments, Inc.	$	10,000

No specific charge is assessed directly to policyowners or the separate account to cover commissions and other incentives or payments described above. We do intend to recoup commissions and other sales expenses and other incentive we pay, however, through fees and charges deducted under the Policy and other corporate revenue.

You should be aware that a selling firm or its sales representatives may receive different compensation or incentives for selling one product over another. In some cases, these payments may create an incentive for the selling firm or its sales representatives to recommend or sell this Policy to you. You may wish to take such payments into account when considering and evaluating any recommendation relating to the Policies.

Legal Proceedings

Western Reserve, like other life insurance companies, is involved in lawsuits, including class action lawsuits. In some lawsuits involving insurers, substantial damages have been sought and/or material settlement payments have been made. Although the outcome of any litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, at the present time, it appears that there are no pending or threatened lawsuits that are likely to have a material adverse impact on the separate account, on TCI’s ability to perform under its principal underwriting agreement, or on Western Reserve’s ability to meet its obligations under the Policy.

attained age		The issue age of the person insured, plus the number of completed years since the Policy date.


base policy		The WRL Freedom Equity Protector variable life insurance policy without any supplemental riders.


beneficiary(ies)		The person or persons you select to receive the death benefit from the Policy. You name the primary beneficiary and contingent beneficiaries.

cash value		The sum of your Policy’s value in the subaccounts and the fixed account. If there is a Policy loan outstanding, the cash value includes any amounts held in our fixed account to secure the Policy loan.

death benefit proceeds		The amount we will pay to the beneficiary(ies) on the insured’s death. We will reduce the death benefit proceeds by the amount of any outstanding loan amount and any due and unpaid monthly deductions. We will increase the death benefit proceeds by any interest you paid in advance on the loan for the period between the date of death and the next Policy anniversary.

fixed account		An option to which you may allocate net premiums and cash value. We guarantee that any amounts you allocate to the fixed account will earn interest at a declared rate. The fixed account is part of our general account. The fixed account is *not* available to you if your Policy was issued in the State of New Jersey.

free-look period		The period during which you may return the Policy and receive a refund as described in the prospectus. The length of the free-look period varies by state. The free-look period is listed in the Policy.

funds		Investment companies which are registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Policy allows you to invest in the portfolios of the funds through our subaccounts. We reserve the right to add other registered investment companies to the Policy in the future.


good order		An instruction that is received by the Company, along with all forms, information and supporting legal documentation (including any required spousal or joint owner’s consents), that is sufficiently complete and clear so that the Company does not need to exercise any discretion to follow such instruction. All orders to process a withdrawal request; a loan request; a request to surrender your Policy; a fund transfer request; or a death benefit claim must be in good order.


guideline premium		The level annual premium payment you must pay so that we can provide the benefits you selected through the maturity date. The amount of the payment is based on particular


		facts relating to the insured and certain assumptions allowed by law. The guideline premium is shown on your Policy schedule page.

in force		While coverage under the Policy is active and the insured’s life remains insured.


indebtedness		Outstanding loans plus any accrued interest at the time your Policy lapsed.


initial premium		The amount you must pay before insurance coverage begins under the Policy. The initial premium is shown on the schedule page of your Policy.

insured		The person whose life is insured by the Policy.

issue age		The insured’s age on his or her birthday nearest to the Policy date.

loan amount		The total amount of all outstanding Policy loans, including both principal and interest due.

loan reserve account		A part of the fixed account to which amounts are transferred as collateral for Policy loans.

mailing address		Our mailing address is 4333 Edgewood Road, N.E., Cedar Rapids, Iowa, 52499. All premium payments and loan repayments made by check, correspondence and notices must be sent to this address.

maturity date		The Policy anniversary nearest the insured’s 95^th birthday if the insured is living and the Policy is still in force. It is the date when life insurance coverage under this Policy ends. You may continue coverage, at your option, under the Policy’s extended maturity date benefit provision.

minimum monthly guarantee premium		The amount shown on your Policy schedule page that we use during the no lapse period to determine whether a grace period will begin. We make this determination whenever your net surrender value is not enough to meet monthly deductions. If you pay your minimum monthly guarantee premium each month during the no lapse period, your Policy will not lapse, so long as you do not take a loan, increase the specified amount, or add a rider.

Monthiversary		This is the day of each month when we determine Policy charges and deduct them from cash value. It is the same date each month as the Policy date. If there is no valuation date in the calendar month that coincides with the Policy date, the Monthiversary is the next valuation date.

monthly deductions		The monthly Policy charge, plus the monthly cost of insurance, plus the monthly charge for any riders added to your Policy.

mortality and expense risk charge		This charge is a daily deduction from each subaccount that is taken before determining the unit value of that subaccount.

net premium		The part of your premium that we allocate to the fixed account or the subaccounts. The net premium is equal to the premium you paid minus the premium expense charge and the premium collection charge.

net surrender value		The amount we will pay you if you surrender the Policy while it is in force. The net surrender value on the date you surrender is equal to: the cash value minus any surrender charge, minus any outstanding loan amount, plus any interest you paid in advance on the loan for the period between the date of surrender and the next Policy anniversary.


no lapse date		For a Policy issued to any insured ages 0-60, the no lapse date is either the anniversary on which the insured’s attained age is 65 or the tenth Policy anniversary, whichever is earlier. For a Policy issued to an insured ages 61-75, the no lapse date is the fifth Policy anniversary. The no lapse date is specified in your Policy.

no lapse period		The period of time between the Policy date and the no lapse date during which the Policy will not lapse if certain conditions are met.

NYSE		The New York Stock Exchange.

planned periodic premium		A premium payment you make in a level amount at a fixed interval over a specified period of time.

Policy date		The date when our underwriting process is complete, full life insurance coverage goes into effect, we begin to make monthly deductions, and your initial net premium is allocated to the WRL Transamerica Money Market subaccount. The Policy date is shown on the schedule page of your Policy. We measure Policy months, years, and anniversaries from the Policy date.

portfolio		One of the separate investment portfolios of a fund.

premium expense charge		The charge that is deducted from each premium payment before determining the net premium that will be credited to the cash value.

premiums		All payments you make under the Policy other than loan repayments.


reallocation account		That portion of the fixed account where we hold the net premium(s) from the record date until the reallocation date.



reallocation date		The date we reallocate all cash value held in the reallocation account to the fixed account and/or subaccounts you selected on your application. We place your net premium in the reallocation account (or as mandated by state law) only if your state requires us to return the full premium in the event you exercise your free-look right. In those states the reallocation date stated in your policy is as long as we estimate your free look period to last. In all other states, the reallocation date is the later of the policy date or the record date.


record date		The date we record your Policy on our books as an in force Policy, and we allocate your cash value from the WRL Transamerica Money Market subaccount to the accounts that you selected on your application.

separate account		The WRL Series Life Account. It is a separate investment account that is divided into subaccounts. We established the separate account to receive and invest net premiums under the Policy and other variable life insurance policies we issue.

specified amount		The minimum death benefit we will pay under the Policy provided the Policy is in force. The initial specified amount of life insurance that you have selected shown on the Policy’s schedule page, unless you increase or decrease the specified amount. In addition, we will reduce the specified amount by the dollar amount of any cash withdrawal if you choose the Option A (level) death benefit.

subaccount		A subdivision of the separate account that invests exclusively in shares of one investment portfolio of a fund.

surrender charge		If, during the first 15 Policy years, you fully surrender the Policy, we will deduct a surrender charge from your cash value. We will deduct an additional surrender charge for 15 years following an increase in the specified amount.

termination		When the insured’s life is no longer insured under the Policy or any rider, and the Policy and any rider are no longer in force.

valuation date		Each day the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading. Western Reserve is open

Appendix A
Illustrations

The following illustrations show how certain values under a sample Policy would change with different rates of fictional investment performance over an extended period of time. In particular, the illustrations show how the death benefit, cash value, and net surrender value under a Policy issued to an insured of a given age, would change over time if the premiums indicated were paid and the return on the assets in the subaccounts were a uniform gross annual rate (before any expenses) of 0%, 6% or 10%. The tables illustrate Policy value that would result based on assumptions that you pay the premiums indicated, you do not change your specified amount, and you do not take any cash withdrawals or Policy loans. The values under the Policy will be different from those shown even if the returns averaged 0%, 6% or 10%, but fluctuated over and under those averages throughout the years shown.

We based the illustration on page 77 on a Policy for an insured who is a 36 year old male in the Ultimate Select underwriting class (the “representative insured”), annual premium paid on the first day of each Policy year of $810, a $100,000 initial specified amount and death benefit Option A. The illustration on that page also assumes cost of insurance charges based on our current cost of insurance rates.

The illustration for the representative insured on page 78 is based on the same factors of those on page 77, except the cost of insurance charges are based on the guaranteed cost of insurance rates and expenses (based on the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary Mortality Table).

The amounts shown in the illustrations for the death benefits, cash values and net surrender values take into account all Policy, subaccount and portfolio fees assessed under the Policy and the timing of those charges. The current illustration uses current charges and the guaranteed illustration uses guaranteed charges. These charges are:

(1)		the daily charge for assuming mortality and expense risks assessed against each subaccount. This charge is equivalent to an annual charge of 0.90% of the average net assets of the subaccounts;


(2)		estimated daily expenses equivalent to an effective arithmetic average annual expense level of 1.23% of the portfolios’ gross average daily net assets. The 1.23% gross average portfolio expense level assumes an equal allocation of amounts among the 73 subaccounts available to new investors. We used annualized actual audited expenses incurred during 2008 for the portfolios to calculate the gross average annual expense level; and


(3)		the premium expense charge (6.0% of all premium payments during the first ten Policy years and 2.5% of all premiums paid thereafter) and cash value charges using the current monthly Policy charge.

The hypothetical returns shown in the tables are provided only to illustrate the mechanics of a hypothetical policy and do not represent past or future investment rates of return. Tax charges that may be attributable to the separate account are not reflected because we are not currently making such charges. If tax charges are deducted in the future, the separate account would have to earn a sufficient amount in excess of 0%, 6% or 10% or cover any tax charges to produce after tax returns of 0%, 6% or 10%. Your actual rates of return for a particular Policy likely will be more or less than the hypothetical investment rates of return. The actual return on your cash value will depend on factors such as the amounts you allocate to particular portfolios, the amounts deducted for the Policy’s monthly charges and other charges, the portfolios’ expense ratios, and your loan and withdrawal history, in addition to the actual investment experience of the portfolios.

We will furnish the owner, upon request, a personalized illustration reflecting the proposed insured’s age, gender, risk classification and desired Policy features. Contact your registered representative or our administrative office. (See prospectus back cover – “Inquiries.”)

	•	We are not liable for payments we made before we received the written notice at our mailing address.


Choosing the Beneficiary	•	The owner designates the beneficiary (the person to receive the death benefit when the insured dies) in the application.

	•	If the owner designates more than one beneficiary, then each beneficiary shares equally in any death benefit proceeds unless the beneficiary designation states otherwise.

	•	If the beneficiary dies before the insured, then any contingent beneficiary becomes the beneficiary.

	•	If both the beneficiary and contingent beneficiary die before the insured, then the death benefit will be paid to the owner or the owner’s estate upon the insured’s death.


Changing the Beneficiary	•	The owner changes the beneficiary by providing written notice to us, in good order, at our mailing address. Change is effective as of the date the owner signs the written notice.

	•	We are not liable for any payments we made before we received the written notice at our mailing address.


Assigning the Policy	•	The owner may assign Policy rights while the insured is alive.

	•	The owner retains any ownership rights that are not assigned.

	•	Assignee may not change the owner or the beneficiary, and may not elect or change an optional method of payment. Any amount payable to the assignee will be paid in a lump sum.

	•	Claims under any assignment are subject to proof of interest and the extent of the assignment.

		We are not:

	•	> bound by any assignment unless we receive a written notice of the assignment at our mailing address;

	•	> responsible for the validity of any assignment;

	•	> liable for any payment we made before we received written notice of the assignment at our mailing address; or

	•	> bound by any assignment which results in adverse tax consequences to the owner, insured(s) or beneficiary(ies).

	•	Assigning the Policy may have tax consequences. You should consult a tax advisor before assigning the Policy.

Our Right to Contest the Policy

In issuing the Policy, we rely on all statements made by or for the insured in the application or in a supplemental application. Therefore, if you make any material misrepresentation of a fact in the application (or any supplemental application), then we may contest the Policy’s validity or may resist a claim under the Policy. For any portion of the specified amount that is issued as a result of a conversion, the contestability period is measured from the later of the policy date of the policy that was converted or the latest effective date of reinstatement of the converted policy.

In the absence of fraud, we cannot bring any legal action to contest the validity of the Policy after the Policy has been in force during the insured’s lifetime for two years from the Policy date, or if reinstated, for two years from the date of reinstatement.

Suicide Exclusion

If the insured commits suicide, while sane or insane, within two years of the Policy date (or two years from the reinstatement date, if the Policy lapses and is reinstated), the Policy will terminate and our liability is limited to an amount equal to the premiums paid, less any outstanding loan amount, and less any cash withdrawals. We will pay this amount to the beneficiary in one sum. For any portion of the specified amount that is issued as a result of a conversion, the suicide period is measured from the later of the policy date of the policy that was converted or the latest effective date of reinstatement of the converted policy.

Misstatement of Age or Gender

If the age or gender of the insured was stated incorrectly in the application or any supplemental application, then the death benefit will be adjusted based on what the cost of insurance charge for the most recent monthly deduction would have purchased based on the insured’s correct age and gender.

Modifying the Policy

Only our President or Secretary may modify the Policy or waive any of our rights or requirements under the Policy. Any modification or waiver must be in writing. No agent may bind us by making any promise not contained in the Policy.

If we modify the Policy, we will provide you notice and we will make appropriate endorsements to the Policy.

Mixed and Shared Funding

In addition to the separate account, shares of the portfolios are also sold to other separate accounts that we (or our affiliates) establish to support variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies. It is possible that, in the future, it may become disadvantageous for variable life insurance separate accounts and variable annuity separate accounts to invest in the portfolios simultaneously. Neither the funds nor we currently foresee any such disadvantages, either to variable life insurance policyowners or to variable annuity contract owners. However, each fund’s Board of Directors/Trustees will monitor events in order to identify any material conflicts between the interests of such variable life insurance policyowners and variable annuity contract owners, and will determine what action, if any, it should take. Such action could include the sale of portfolio shares by one or more of the separate accounts, which could have adverse consequences. Material conflicts could result from, for example, (1) changes in state insurance laws, (2) changes in federal income tax laws, or (3) differences in voting instructions between those given by variable life insurance policyowners and those given by variable annuity contract owners.

If a fund’s Board of Directors/Trustees were to conclude that separate funds should be established for variable life insurance and variable annuity separate accounts, Western Reserve will bear the attendant expenses, but variable life insurance policyowners and variable annuity contract owners would no longer have the economies of scale resulting from a larger combined fund.

Addition, Deletion, or Substitution of Portfolios

We do not guarantee that each portfolio will always be available for investment through the Policy. We reserve the right, subject to compliance with applicable law, to add new portfolios, close existing portfolios, or substitute portfolio shares that are held by any subaccount for shares of a different portfolio. New or substitute portfolios may have different fees and expenses and their availability may be limited to certain classes of purchasers. We will only add, delete or substitute shares of another portfolio of a fund (or of another open-end, registered investment company) if the shares of a portfolio are no longer available for investment, or if in our judgment further investment in any portfolio would become inappropriate in view of the purposes of the separate account. We will not add, delete or substitute any shares attributable to your interest in a subaccount without notice to you and prior approval of the SEC, to the extent

required by the 1940 Act or other applicable law. We may also decide to purchase for the separate account securities from other portfolios. We reserve the right to transfer separate account assets to another separate account that we determine to be associated with the class of contracts to which the Policy belongs.

We also reserve the right to establish additional subaccounts of the separate account, each of which would invest in a new portfolio of a fund, or in shares of another investment company, with specified investment objectives. We may establish new subaccounts when, in our sole discretion, marketing, tax or investment conditions warrant. We will make any new subaccounts available to existing owners on a basis we determine. We may also eliminate one or more subaccounts for the same reasons as stated above.

In the event of any such substitution or change, we may make such changes in this and other policies as may be necessary or appropriate to reflect such substitution or change. If we deem it to be in the best interests of persons having voting rights under the Policies, and when permitted by law, the separate account may be (1) operated as a management company under the 1940 Act, (2) deregistered under the 1940 Act in the event such registration is no longer required, (3) managed under the direction of a committee, or (4) combined with one or more other separate accounts, or subaccounts.

Additional Information

Additional Information about Western Reserve and the Separate Account

Western Reserve is a stock life insurance company is a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Transamerica Corporation, which conducts most of its operations through subsidiary companies engaged in the insurance business or in providing non-insurance financial services. All of the stock of Transamerica Corporation is indirectly owned by AEGON N.V. of the Netherlands, a public company under Dutch law. Western Reserve’s administrative office is located at 570 Carillon Parkway, St. Petersburg, Florida 33716-1202 and the mailing address is 4333 Edgewood Road, N.E., Cedar Rapids, Iowa 52499.

Western Reserve was initially incorporated in 1957 under the laws of Ohio and is subject to regulation by the Insurance Department of the State of Ohio, as well as by the insurance departments of all other states and jurisdictions in which it does business. Western Reserve is licensed to sell insurance in all states (except New York), Puerto Rico, Guam, and in the District of Columbia. Western Reserve submits annual statements on its operations and finances to insurance officials in all states and jurisdictions in which it does business. The Policy described in the prospectus has been filed with, and where required, approved by, insurance officials in those jurisdictions in which it is sold.

Western Reserve established the separate account as a separate investment account under Ohio law in 1985. We own the assets in the separate account and are obligated to pay all benefits under the Policies. The separate account is used to support other life insurance policies of Western Reserve, as well as for other purposes permitted by law. The separate account is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act and qualifies as a “separate account” within the meaning of the federal securities laws.

Western Reserve holds the assets of the separate account physically segregated and apart from the general account. Western Reserve maintains records of all purchases and sales of portfolio shares by each of the subaccounts. A blanket bond was issued to AEGON USA, Inc. (“AEGON USA”) in the aggregate amount of $12 million, covering all of the employees of AEGON USA and its affiliates, including Western Reserve. A Stockbrokers Blanket Bond, issued to AEGON U.S.A. Securities, Inc. providing fidelity coverage, covers the activities of registered representatives of TCI to a limit of $10 million.

Legal Matters

Arthur D. Woods, Vice President and Senior Counsel of Western Reserve, has provided legal advice on certain matters in connection with the issuance of the Policy.

Variations in Policy Provisions

Certain provisions of the Policy may vary from the descriptions in the prospectus, depending on when and where the Policy was issued, in order to comply with different state laws. These variations may include restrictions on use of the fixed account and different interest rates charged and credited on Policy loans. Please refer to your Policy; any variations will be included in your Policy or in riders or endorsements attached to your Policy.

Personalized Illustrations of Policy Benefits

In order to help you understand how your Policy values would vary over time under different sets of assumptions, we will provide you with certain personalized illustrations upon request. These will be based on the age and insurance risk characteristics of the insured persons under your Policy and such factors as the specified amount, death benefit option, premium payment amounts, and rates of return (within limits) that you request.

The illustrations are not a representation or guarantee of investment returns or cash value. You may request illustrations that reflect the expenses of the portfolios in which you intend to invest.

Sale of the Policies

We no longer offer the Policies to the public.

TCI serves as principal underwriter for the Policies. TCI’s home office is located at 4600 S. Syracuse Street, Suite 1100, Denver, Colorado 80237. TCI is an affiliate of Western Reserve and, like Western Reserve, is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of AEGON USA. TCI is registered as a broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is a member of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). TCI is not a member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation.

The Policies are offered to the public through sales representatives of broker-dealers (“selling firms”) that have entered into selling agreements with us and with TCI. Sales representatives are appointed as our insurance agents.

During fiscal years 2007 and 2006, before TCI replaced our affiliate, AFSG Securities Corporation (“AFSG”), as principal underwriter for the Policies, the amounts paid to AFSG in connection with all Policies sold through the separate account were $21,215,096 and $70,977,287, respectively. The amount paid to TCI for the period May 1, 2007 through December 31, 2007, in connection with all Policies sold through the separate account, was $44,112,185. During fiscal year 2008, the amount paid to TCI in connection with all Policies sold through the separate account was $47,040,038. AFSG and TCI each passed through commissions it received to selling firms for their sales and did not retain any portion of them. Our parent company provides capital distributions to TCI (and provided capital distributions to AFSG) and pays for TCI’s (and paid for AFSG’s) operating and other expenses, including overhead, legal and accounting fees.

We and/or TCI or ISI may pay certain selling firms additional cash amounts for: (1) “preferred product” treatment of the Policies in their marketing programs, which may include marketing services and increased access to their sales representatives; (2) sales promotions relating to the Policies; (3) costs associated with sales conferences and educational seminars for their sales representatives; and (4) other sales expenses incurred by them. These additional payments are not offered to all selling firms, and the terms of any particular agreement governing the payments may vary among selling firms.

Reports to Owners

At least once each year, or more often as required by law, we will mail to policyowners at their last known address a report showing the following information as of the end of the report period:


>	the current cash value	>	any activity since the last report
>	the current net surrender value	>	projected values
>	the current death benefit	>	investment experience of each subaccount
>	outstanding loans	>	any other information required by law

You may request additional copies of reports, but we may charge a fee for such additional copies. In addition, we will send written confirmations of any premium payments and other financial transactions you request including: changes in specified amount, changes in death benefit option, transfers, partial withdrawals, increases in loan amount, loan interest payments, loan repayments, lapses and reinstatements. We also will send copies of the annual and semi-annual report to shareholders for each portfolio in which you are indirectly invested.

Records

We will maintain all records relating to the separate account and the fixed account.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The financial statements of the separate account at December 31, 2008, and for the periods disclosed in the financial statements,

and the statutory-basis financial statements and schedules of Western Reserve at December 31, 2008 and 2007, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008, appearing herein, have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, 801 Grand Avenue, Suite 3000, Des Moines, Iowa 50309, independent registered public accounting firm, as set forth in the firm’s respective reports thereon appearing elsewhere herein, and are included in reliance upon such reports given upon the authority of such firm as experts in accounting and auditing.

Experts

Actuarial matters included in this SAI have been examined by Lorne Schinbein, Vice President and Managing Actuary of Western Reserve, located at 570 Carillon Parkway, St. Petersburg, Florida 33716, as stated in the opinion filed as an exhibit to the registration statement.

Financial Statements

Western Reserve’s statutory-basis financial statements and schedules, which include the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, appear on the following pages. These statutory-basis financial statements and schedules should be distinguished from the separate account’s financial statements, and you should consider these statutory-basis financial statements and schedules only as bearing upon Western Reserve’s ability to meet our obligations under the Policies. You should not consider our statutory-basis financial statements and schedules as bearing upon the investment performance of the assets held in the separate account.

Western Reserve’s statutory-basis financial statements and schedules at December 31, 2008 and 2007, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008, have been prepared on the basis of statutory accounting principles rather than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The separate account’s financial statements, which include the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, also appear on the following pages.

Underwriters

Underwriting Standards

This Policy uses mortality tables that distinguish between men and women. As a result, the Policy pays different benefits to men and women of the same age. Montana prohibits our use of actuarial tables that distinguish between males and females to determine premiums and policy benefits for policies issued on the lives of its residents. Therefore, we will base the premiums and benefits in Policies that we issue in Montana, to insure residents of that state, on actuarial tables that do not differentiate on the basis of gender.

Your cost of insurance charge will vary by the insured’s gender, attained age on the Policy date, length of time from the Policy date, and underwriting class. We currently place insureds into the following underwriting classes:


	•		ultimate select, non-tobacco use;



	•		select, non-tobacco use;



	•		ultimate standard, tobacco use;



	•		standard, tobacco use; and



	•		juveniles – under 18.

We also place insureds in various sub-standard underwriting classes, which involve a higher mortality risk and higher charges. We generally charge higher rates for insureds that use tobacco. We currently charge lower cost of insurance rates for insureds that are in an “ultimate class.” An ultimate class is only available if our underwriting guidelines require you to take a blood test because of the specified amount you have chosen.

IMSA

We are a member of the Insurance Marketplace Standards Association (“IMSA”). IMSA is an independent, voluntary organization of life insurance companies. It promotes high ethical standards in the sales and advertising of individual life insurance, long-term care insurance and annuity products. Through its Principles and Code of Ethical Market Conduct, IMSA encourages its member companies to develop and implement policies and procedures to promote sound market practices. Companies must undergo a rigorous self and independent assessment of their practices to become a member of IMSA. The IMSA logo in our sales literature shows

our ongoing commitment to these standards. You may find more information about IMSA and its ethical standards at www.imsaethics.org in the “Consumer” section or by contacting IMSA at 240-497-2900.

Performance Data

Other Performance Data in Advertising Sales Literature

We may compare each subaccount’s performance to the performance of:


	•		other variable life issuers in general;



	•		variable life insurance policies which invest in mutual funds with similar investment objectives and policies, as reported by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. (“Lipper”) and Morningstar, Inc. (“Morningstar”); and other services, companies, individuals, or industry or financial publications (e.g., Forbes, Money, The Wall Street Journal, Business Week, Barron’s, Kiplinger’s Personal Finance, and Fortune);

Lipper and Morningstar rank variable annuity contracts and variable life policies. Their performance analysis ranks such policies and contracts on the basis of total return, and assumes reinvestment of distributions; but it does not show sales charges, redemption fees or certain expense deductions at the separate account level.


	•		the Standard & Poor’s Index of 500 Common Stocks, or other widely recognized indices;

unmanaged indices may assume the reinvestment of dividends, but usually do not reflect deductions for the expenses of operating or managing an investment portfolio; or


	•		other types of investments, such as:

	>		certificates of deposit;

	>		savings accounts and U.S. Treasuries;

	>		certain interest rate and inflation indices (e.g., the Consumer Price Index); or

	>		indices measuring the performance of a defined group of securities recognized by investors as representing a particular segment of the securities markets (e.g., Donoghue Money Market Institutional Average, Lehman Brothers Corporate Bond Index, or Lehman Brothers Government Bond Index).

Western Reserve’s Published Ratings

We may publish in advertisements, sales literature, or reports we send to you the ratings and other information that an independent ratings organization assigns to us. These organizations include: A.M. Best Company, Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., Standard & Poor’s Insurance Rating Services, and Fitch Ratings. These ratings are opinions regarding an operating insurance company’s financial capacity to meet the obligations of its insurance policies in accordance with their terms. These ratings do not apply to the separate account, the subaccounts, the funds or their portfolios, or to their performance.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Separate Account’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

S-1

We conducted our audits 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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Separate Account’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Separate Account’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also 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. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2008 by correspondence with the mutual funds’ transfer agents. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the respective subaccounts constituting the WRL Series Life Account at December 31, 2008, and the results of their operations and changes in net assets for the periods indicated thereon, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Investments

Net purchase payments received by the Life Account are invested in the portfolios of the Series Funds, as selected by the contract owner. Investments are stated at the closing net asset values per share on December 31, 2008.

Realized capital gains and losses from the sales of shares in the Series Funds are determined on the first-in, first-out basis. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed) and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Unrealized gains or losses from investments in the life account are included in the Statements of Operations.

Dividend Income

Dividends received from the Series Funds investments are reinvested to purchase additional mutual fund shares.

*		These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the subaccount from the underlying Series Fund, net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by the average net assets. These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges, that result in direct reductions in the unit values. The recognition of investment income by the subaccount is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying Series Fund in which the subaccounts invest. These ratios are annualized for periods less than one year.

**		These ratios represent the annualized contract expenses of the Life Account, consisting primarily of mortality and expense charges. The ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values. Charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units and expenses of the underlying Series Fund are excluded.

5. Administrative, Mortality, and Expense Risk Charge

Under some forms of the Contracts, a sales charge and premium taxes are deducted by WRL prior to allocation of policy owner payments to the subaccounts. Contingent surrender charges may also apply.

Under all forms of the Contract, monthly charges against policy cash values are made to compensate WRL for costs of insurance provided.

A daily charge equal to an annual rate from 0.00% and 1.50% of average daily net assets is assessed to compensate WRL for assumption of mortality and expense risks in connection with the issuance and administration of the Contracts. This charge (not assessed at the individual contract level) effectively reduces the value of a unit outstanding during the year.

6. Income Taxes

Operations of the Life Account form a part of WRL, which is taxed as a life insurance company under Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). The operations of the Life Account are accounted for separately from other operations of WRL for purposes of federal income taxation. The Life Account is not separately taxable as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code and is not otherwise taxable as an entity separate from WRL. Under existing federal income tax laws, the income of the Life Account is not taxable to WRL, as long as earnings are credited under the variable annuity contracts.

7. Dividend Distributions

Dividends are not declared by the Life Account, since the increase in the value of the underlying investment in the Series Funds is reflected daily in the accumulation unit price used to calculate the equity value within the Life Account. Consequently, a dividend distribution by the underlying Series Funds does not change either the accumulation unit price or equity values within the Life Account.

8. Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value Hierarchy

SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the nature of inputs used to measure fair value and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements.

The Life Account has categorized its financial instruments into a three level hierarchy which is based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are categorized as follows:

Level 1. Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market.

S-101

Western Reserve Life Assurance Co.

WRL Series Life Account

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2008

Level 2. Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include the following:

	a)		Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets

	b)		Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets

	c)		Inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable

	d)		Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or other means.

Level 3. Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. They reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.

All investments in Mutual Funds included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are stated at fair value and are based upon daily unadjusted quoted prices, therefore are considered Level 1.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors
Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio

We have audited the accompanying statutory-basis balance sheets of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (the Company) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statutory-basis statements of operations, changes in capital and surplus, and cash flow for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008. Our audits also included the statutory-basis financial statement schedules required by Regulation S-X, Article 7. These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with 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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also 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 provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

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

In our opinion, because of the effects of the matter described in the preceding paragraph, the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the financial position of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio at December 31, 2008 and 2007, or the results of its operations or its cash flow for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008.

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (the Company) is a stock life insurance company and is a wholly owned subsidiary of AEGON USA, LLC (AEGON). AEGON is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of AEGON N.V., a holding company organized under the laws of The Netherlands.

Nature of Business

The Company operates predominantly in the variable universal life and variable annuity areas of the life insurance business. The Company is licensed in 49 states, District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and Guam. Sales of the Company’s products are through financial planners, independent representatives, financial institutions and stockbrokers. The majority of the Company’s new life insurance, and a portion of new annuities, are written through an affiliated marketing organization.

Basis of Presentation

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

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

Investments: Investments in bonds and mandatory redeemable preferred stocks are reported at amortized cost or fair value based on their National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) rating; for GAAP, such fixed maturity investments would be designated at purchase as held-to-maturity, trading or available-for-sale. Held-to-maturity fixed investments would be reported at amortized cost, and the remaining fixed maturity investments would be reported at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in operations for those designated as trading and as a separate component of other comprehensive income for those designated as available-for-sale. Prior to 2008, fair value for statutory purposes was based on the price published by the Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC (SVO), if available, whereas fair value for GAAP was based on indexes, third party pricing services, brokers,

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

external fund managers and internal models. In 2008, the NAIC adopted a regulation allowing insurance companies to report the fair value determined by the SVO or determine the fair value by using a permitted valuation method. Therefore, effective December 31, 2008, fair value for statutory purposes was reported or determined using the following pricing sources: indexes, third party pricing services, brokers, external fund managers and internal models.

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

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

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

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

Notes to Financial Statements — Statutory Basis (continued)
(Dollars in Thousands)

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

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

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

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

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

Non-admitted Assets: Certain assets designated as “non-admitted”, principally the non-admitted portion of deferred income tax assets and agent debit balances, and other assets not specifically identified as an admitted asset within the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual are excluded from the accompanying balance sheets and are charged directly to unassigned surplus. Under GAAP, such assets are included in the balance sheet to the extent that those assets are not impaired.

Notes to Financial Statements — Statutory Basis (continued)
(Dollars in Thousands)

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

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

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

Reinsurance: Any reinsurance balance amounts deemed to be uncollectible have been written off through a charge to operations. In addition, a liability for reinsurance balances has been provided for unsecured policy reserves ceded to reinsurers not authorized to assume such business. Changes to the liability are credited or charged directly to unassigned surplus. Under GAAP, an allowance for amounts deemed uncollectible would be established through a charge to earnings.

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

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

G-13

Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio

Notes to Financial Statements — Statutory Basis (continued)
(Dollars in Thousands)

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

Deferred Income Taxes: Deferred income tax assets are limited to 1) the amount of federal income taxes paid in prior years that can be recovered through loss carrybacks for existing temporary differences that reverse by the end of the subsequent calendar year, plus 2) the lesser of the remaining gross deferred income tax assets expected to be realized within one year of the balance sheet date or 10% of capital and surplus excluding any net deferred income tax assets, electronic data processing equipment and operating software and any net positive goodwill, plus 3) the amount of remaining gross deferred income tax assets that can be offset against existing gross deferred income tax liabilities. The remaining deferred income tax assets are non-admitted. During 2008, the Company obtained permission from the state of Ohio to compute deferred income taxes using a permitted practice, which is discussed in detail in Note 2 — Prescribed and Permitted Statutory Accounting Practices.

Deferred income taxes do not include amounts for state taxes. Under GAAP, state taxes are included in the computation of deferred income taxes, a deferred income tax asset is recorded for the amount of gross deferred income tax assets expected to be realized in all future years, and a valuation allowance is established for deferred income tax assets not realizable.

Policyholder Dividends: Policyholder dividends are recognized when declared rather than over the term of the related policies.

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

Securities Lending Assets and Liabilities: If collateral is restricted and not available for the general use of the Company, an asset and related liability are not recorded on the balance sheet. However, if the collateral is not restricted and is available for general use, the Company is required to record the asset and related liability. Under GAAP, the asset and related liability must be recorded for collateral under the control of the Company, regardless of any restrictions on the collateral.

The effects of the foregoing variances from GAAP on the accompanying statutory-basis financial statements have not been determined by the Company, but are presumed to be material.

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

Other significant accounting policies are as follows:

Investments

Investments in bonds, except those to which the SVO has ascribed a designation of an NAIC 6, are reported at amortized cost using the interest method.

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

Investments in both affiliated and unaffiliated preferred stocks in good standing are reported at cost. Investments in preferred stocks not in good standing are reported at the lower of cost or fair value as determined by the SVO and the related net unrealized capital gains (losses) are reported in unassigned surplus along with any adjustment for federal income taxes.

Common stocks of noninsurance subsidiaries are reported based on underlying audited GAAP equity. The net change in the subsidiaries’ equity is included in the change in net unrealized capital gains or losses.

There are no restrictions on common or preferred stock.

Home office properties are reported at cost less allowances for depreciation. Depreciation of home office properties is computed principally by the straight-line method.

Short-term investments include investments with remaining maturities of one year or less at the time of acquisition and are principally stated at amortized cost.

Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are principally stated at amortized cost.

G-15

Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio

Notes to Financial Statements — Statutory Basis (continued)
(Dollars in Thousands)

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

Mortgage loans are reported at unpaid principal balances, less an allowance for impairment. A mortgage loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all principal and interest amounts due according to the contractual terms of the mortgage agreement. When management determines that the impairment is other than temporary, the mortgage loan is written down to realizable value and a realized loss is recognized.

Policy loans are reported at unpaid principal balances. Other “admitted assets” are valued principally at cost.

Investments in Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Properties are valued at amortized cost. Tax credits are recognized in operations in the tax reporting year in which the tax credit is utilized by the Company.

Realized capital gains and losses are determined using specific identification and are recorded net of related federal income taxes. Changes in admitted asset carrying amounts of bonds, mortgage loans, preferred and common stocks are credited or charged directly to unassigned surplus.

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

Under a formula prescribed by the NAIC, the Company defers, in the IMR, the portion of realized gains and losses on sales of fixed income investments, principally bonds and mortgage loans, attributable to changes in the general level of interest rates and amortizes those deferrals over the remaining period to maturity of the security.

During 2008, 2007 and 2006 net realized capital (losses) gains of $19,356, $(177) and $(2,235), respectively, were credited to the IMR rather than being immediately recognized in the statements of operations. Amortization of these net (losses) gains aggregated $(443), $(510) and $(437), for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. The Company does not accrue income on bonds in default, mortgage loans on real estate in default and/or foreclosure or which are delinquent more than twelve months, or real estate where rent is in arrears for more than three months. Further, income is not accrued when collection is uncertain. Investment income due and accrued of $6, $13 and $20 has been excluded for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively, with respect to such practices.

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

Derivative Instruments

Futures are marked to market on a daily basis and a cash payment is made or received by the Company. These payments are recognized as realized gains or losses in the financial statements.

Premiums and Annuity Considerations

Revenues for policies with mortality or morbidity risk (including annuities with purchase rate guarantees) consist of the entire premium received and are recognized over the premium paying periods of the related policies. Premiums received for annuity policies without mortality or morbidity risk are recorded using deposit accounting, and recorded directly to an appropriate policy reserve account, without recognizing premium income.

Aggregate Reserves for Policies and Contracts

Life and annuity reserves are developed by actuarial methods and are determined based on published tables using statutorily specified interest rates and valuation methods that will provide, in the aggregate, reserves that are greater than or equal to the minimum required by law. The Company waives deduction of deferred fractional premiums upon death and refunds portions of premiums beyond the date of death. Surrender values on policies do not exceed the corresponding benefit reserves. Additional premiums are charged or additional mortality charges are assessed for policies issued on substandard lives according to underwriting classification. Additional reserves are established when the results of cash flow testing under various interest rate scenarios indicate the need for such reserves or the net premiums exceed the gross premiums on any insurance in force.

Tabular interest, tabular less actual reserves released and tabular cost have been determined by formula. Tabular interest on funds not involving life contingencies has also been determined by formula.

The aggregate policy reserves for life insurance policies are based principally upon the 1941, 1958, 1980 and 2001 Commissioners’ Standard Ordinary Mortality Tables. The reserves are calculated using interest rates ranging from 2.0 to 5.5 percent and are computed principally on the Net Level Premium Valuation and the Commissioners’ Reserve Valuation Methods. Reserves for universal life policies are based on account balances adjusted for the Commissioners’ Reserve Valuation Method.

G-17

Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio

Notes to Financial Statements — Statutory Basis (continued)
(Dollars in Thousands)

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

Deferred annuity reserves are calculated according to the Commissioners’ Annuity Reserve Valuation Method including excess interest reserves to cover situations where the future interest guarantees plus the decrease in surrender charges are in excess of the maximum valuation rates of interest. Reserves for immediate annuities and supplementary contracts with life contingencies are equal to the present value of future payments assuming interest rates ranging from 4.0 to 11.25 percent and mortality rates, where appropriate, from a variety of tables.

The liabilities related to guaranteed investment contracts and policyholder funds left on deposit with the Company generally are equal to fund balances less applicable surrender charges.

Policy and Contract Claim Reserves

Claim reserves represent the estimated accrued liability for claims reported to the Company and claims incurred but not yet reported through the statement date. These reserves are estimated using either individual case-basis valuations or statistical analysis techniques. These estimates are subject to the effects of trends in claim severity and frequency. The estimates are continually reviewed and adjusted as necessary as experience develops or new information becomes available.

Liability for Deposit-Type Contracts

Deposit-type contracts do not incorporate risk from the death or disability of policyholders. These types of contracts may include supplemental contracts and certain annuity contracts. Deposits and withdrawals received on these contracts are recorded as a direct increase or decrease to the liability balance, and are not reflected as premiums, benefits or changes in reserve in the statement of operations.

Reinsurance

Coinsurance premiums, commissions, expense reimbursements and reserves related to reinsured business are accounted for on bases consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies and the terms of the reinsurance contracts. Gains associated with reinsurance of inforce blocks of business are included in unassigned surplus and are amortized into income over the estimated life of the policies. Premiums ceded and recoverable losses have been reported as a reduction of premium income and benefits, respectively.

(Dollars in Thousands)

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

Separate Accounts

Separate accounts held by the Company primarily represent funds which are administered for individual variable universal life and variable annuity contracts. Assets held in trust for purchases of variable universal life and variable annuity contracts and the Company’s corresponding obligation to the contract owners are shown separately in the balance sheets. The assets consist of shares in funds, considered common stock investments, which are valued daily and carried at fair value. The separate accounts, held for individual policyholders, do not have any minimum guarantees, and the investment risks associated with the fair value changes are borne entirely by the policyholder.

The Company received variable contract premiums of $732,493, $910,067 and $1,092,584, in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. All variable account contracts are subject to discretionary withdrawal by the policyholder at the market value of the underlying assets less the current surrender charge. Separate account contract holders have no claim against the assets of the general account.

Income and gains and losses with respect to the assets in the separate accounts accrue to the benefit of the contract owners and, accordingly, the operations of the separate accounts are not included in the accompanying financial statements. In addition, the Company received $113,994, $137,410 and $128,081, in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively, related to fees associated with investment management, administration and contractual guarantees for separate accounts.

Stock Option Plan and Stock Appreciation Rights Plans

Prior to 2002 and in 2005 through 2008, AEGON N.V. sponsored a stock option plan for eligible employees of the company. Pursuant to the plan, the option price at the date of grant is equal to the market value of the stock. Under statutory accounting principles, the Company does not record any expense related to this plan. However, the Company is allowed to record a deduction in the consolidated tax return filed by the Company and certain affiliates. The tax benefit of this deduction has been credited directly to unassigned surplus.

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

The Company’s employees participate in various stock appreciation rights (SAR) plans issued by AEGON. In accordance with Statement of Statutory Accounting Principles (SSAP) No. 13, Stock Options and Stock Purchase Plans, the expense related to these plans for the Company’s employees has been charged to the Company, with an offsetting amount credited to paid-in surplus. The Company recorded a benefit of $1,628, $832 and $538 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. In addition, the Company recorded an adjustment to paid-in surplus for the income tax effect related to these plans over and above the amount reflected in the statement of operations in the amount of $3, $310 and $134 for years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2008, the NAIC issued SSAP No. 98, Treatment of Cash Flows When Quantifying Changes in Valuation and Impairments. This statement establishes statutory accounting principles for impairment analysis and subsequent valuation of loan-backed and structured securities. Prior to SSAP No. 98, loan-backed and structured securities were evaluated for impairment based upon undiscounted cash flows in accordance with SSAP No. 43, Loan-backed and Structured Securities. SSAP No. 98 requires the use of the present value of the anticipated future cash flows for this purpose. This will result in increased other-than-temporary impairments (OTTI) for certain loan-backed and structured settlement securities. The Company adopted SSAP No. 98 on January 1, 2009. The adoption of this statement shall be accounted for prospectively and therefore there was no impact to the Company’s financials at December 31, 2008. As a result of the adoption, the Company expects to reduce unassigned surplus by $7,836 at January 1, 2009.

In September 2008, the NAIC issued SSAP No. 99, Accounting for Certain Securities Subsequent to an Other-Than-Temporary Impairment. This statement establishes the statutory accounting principles for the treatment of premium or discount applicable to certain securities subsequent to the recognition of an OTTI. Prior to SSAP No. 99, the Company’s investments in OTTI were reported in accordance with SSAP No. 26, Bonds, excluding Loan-backed and Structured Securities, SSAP No. 32, Investments in Preferred Stock and SSAP No. 43, Loan-backed and Structured Securities. The Company adopted SSAP No. 99 on January 1, 2009. The adoption of this statement shall be accounted for prospectively and therefore there was no impact to the Company’s financials at adoption.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2007 and 2006 financial statements to conform to the 2008 presentation.

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

Beginning in 2006, the manner in which the reserves on Variable Annuity and Variable Universal Life contracts are split between the separate account and general account statements was modified. This modification resulted in the contract surrender value being held as the reserve in the separate account statement, and any reserves in excess of the surrender value being held as the reserve in the general account. As a result, the total reserves held by the Company did not change, although the new reserve split resulted in an increase in the general account reserves of approximately $479,175 and an offsetting decrease in the separate account reserves by this same amount as of December 31, 2006.

2. Prescribed and Permitted Statutory Accounting Practices

The financial statements of the Company are presented on the basis of accounting practices prescribed by the Insurance Department of the State of Ohio. The Insurance Department of the State of Ohio recognizes only statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the State of Ohio for determining and reporting the financial condition and results of operation of an insurance company for determining its solvency under Ohio Insurance Law. The NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual (NAIC SAP) has been adopted as a component of prescribed or permitted practices by the State of Ohio.

The Company, with the permission of the Ohio Superintendent of Insurance, determines the admitted amount of deferred income tax assets pursuant to Ohio Bulletin 2009-04. Bulletin 2009-04 increases the realization period for purposes of determining the admissibility of deferred tax assets in accordance with the requirements of SSAP No. 10, Income Taxes, Paragraph 10(b)(i) from one year to three years from the balance sheet date and expands the limit on net deferred tax assets for Paragraph 10(b)(ii) from 10% of adjusted capital and surplus to 15%.

A reconciliation of the Company’s net income and capital and surplus between NAIC SAP and practices prescribed and permitted by the State of Ohio is shown below :

3. Accounting Changes and Corrections of Errors

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company modified the way it recorded interest on income taxes. Prior to January 1, 2008, interest on income taxes was included as a net amount (after federal tax benefit) within federal and foreign income taxes recoverable. Effective January 1, 2008, the gross amount of interest was included in taxes, licenses, and fees due and accrued, which is part of other liabilities, and the related deferred tax asset was included in net deferred income tax asset. The Company reported a decrease in unassigned surplus of $240 as of January 1, 2008 related to this change.

4. Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments: The carrying amounts reported in the statutory-basis balance sheets for these instruments approximate their fair values.

Bonds and Preferred Stocks: Prior to 2008, fair values for bonds and preferred stocks were based on the price published by the SVO, if available. In 2008, the NAIC adopted regulation allowing insurance companies to report the fair value determined by the SVO or determine the fair value by using a permitted valuation method. Therefore, effective December 31, 2008, fair value for statutory purposes was reported or determined using the following pricing sources: indexes, third party pricing services, brokers, external fund managers and internal models.

For fixed maturity securities (including redeemable preferred stock) not actively traded, fair values are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services, or, in the case of private placements, are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows using current market rates applicable to the coupon rate, credit and maturity of the investments. For equity securities that are not actively traded, estimated fair values are based on values of issues of comparable yield and quality.

Mortgage Loans on Real Estate: The fair values for mortgage loans on real estate are estimated utilizing discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates reflective of current market conditions and the risk characteristics of the loans.

Policy Loans: Carrying value of policy loans approximates their fair value.

Separate Account Assets: The fair value of separate account assets are based on quoted market prices.

Separate Account Annuity Liabilities: Separate account annuity liabilities are based upon the fair value of the related separate account assets.

Investment Contract Liabilities: Fair values for the Company’s liabilities under investment-type insurance contracts are estimated using discounted cash flow calculations, based on interest rates currently being offered for similar contracts with maturities consistent with those remaining for the contracts being valued.

Fair values for the Company’s insurance contracts other than investment-type contracts (including separate account universal life liabilities) are not required to be disclosed. However, the fair values of liabilities under all insurance contracts are taken into consideration in the Company’s overall management of interest rate risk, which minimizes exposure to changing interest rates through the matching of investment maturities with amounts due under insurance contracts.

Included in the Company’s financial statements are certain investment-related financial instruments that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company also holds other financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; including impaired financial instruments, such as bonds and preferred stock that are carried at the lower of cost or market. Under Statutory Accounting practice, the Company calculates the fair value of affiliated common stock based on the equity method of accounting; as such, it is not included in the fair value disclosures.

The fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

4. Fair Values of Financial Instruments (continued)

Fair values are based on quoted market prices when available. When market prices are not available, fair value is generally estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, incorporating current market inputs for similar financial instruments with comparable terms and credit quality (matrix pricing). In instances where there is little or no market activity for the same or similar instruments, the Company estimates fair value using methods, models and assumptions that management believes market participants would use to determine a current transaction price. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment which becomes significant with increasingly complex instruments or pricing models. Where appropriate, adjustments are included to reflect the risk inherent in a particular methodology, model or input employed.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified, for disclosure purposes, based on a hierarchy defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. The hierarchy gives the highest ranking to fair values determined using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1), and the lowest ranking to fair values determined using methodologies and models with unobservable inputs (Level 3). An asset’s or a liability’s classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to its measurement. For example, a Level 3 fair value measurement may include inputs that are both observable (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable (Level 3). The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

			Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets accessible at the measurement date.

			Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include the following:

			a) Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets

			b) Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets

			c) Inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable

			d) Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or other means

Level 3 - Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. They reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company classifies certain broker quoted or impaired securities in Level 3. Fair values for the securities classified in Level 3 are at the lower of cost or market value.

In certain circumstances, the Company will obtain non-binding broker quotes from brokers to assist in the determination of fair value. If those quotes can be corroborated by other market observable data, the investment will be classified as Level 2. If not, the investments are classified as Level 3 due to the broker’s valuation process.

Investments, which have a designation of NAIC 6, are considered to be impaired. They are reported at the lower of cost or market, with gains/ (losses) included in net income.

5. Investments (continued)

At December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, for securities in an unrealized loss position greater than or equal to twelve months, the Company held 68 and 57 securities with a carrying amount of $202,928 and $181,439 and an unrealized loss of $55,990 and $4,966, with an average price of 72.4 and 97.3 (fair value/amortized cost). Of this portfolio, 88.42% and 97.43% were investment grade with associated unrealized losses of $43,441 and $4,645, respectively.

At December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, for securities that have been in a continuous loss position for less than twelve months, the Company held 95 and 59 securities with a carrying amount of $219,972 and $181,236 and an unrealized loss of $34,396 and $7,435 with an average price of 84.4 and 95.9 (fair value/amortized cost). Of this portfolio, 91.71% and 93.47% were investment grade with associated unrealized losses of $30,889 and $7,145, respectively.

The Company closely monitors below investment grade holdings and those investment grade issuers where the Company has concerns. The Company also regularly monitors industry sectors. Securities in unrealized loss positions that are considered other than temporary are written down to fair value. The Company considers relevant facts and circumstances in evaluating whether the impairment is other than temporary including: (1) the probability of the Company collecting all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the security in affect at the date of acquisition; and (2) the Company’s decision to sell a security prior to its maturity at an amount below its carrying amount. Additionally, financial condition, near term prospects of the issuer and nationally recognized credit rating changes are monitored. For asset-backed securities, cash flow trends and underlying levels of collateral are monitored. The Company will record a charge to the statement of operations to the extent that these securities are subsequently determined to be other than temporarily impaired.

At December 31, 2008, the Company’s asset-backed securities (ABS) credit card portfolio had a fair value $11,970 less than the carrying amount. The unrealized loss in the ABS credit card sector is primarily a function of decreased liquidity and increased credit spreads in the structured finance and financial institution market. While the credit card ABS portfolios with large subprime segments may be negatively impacted by the slowing domestic economy and housing market, there has been little rating migration of the bonds held by the Company. All of the ABS credit card bonds held by the Company are rated investment grade. The Company’s entire credit card portfolio has been stress tested. Results of these stress tests indicate that while downgrades within the portfolio may occur, all of the securities in an unrealized loss position in this portfolio are projecting payment in full. As there has been no impact to expected future cash flows, the Company does not consider the underlying investments to be impaired as of December 31, 2008.

At December 31, 2008, the Company’s ABS housing portfolio had a fair value $17,144 less than the carrying amount. ABS Housing securities are secured by pools of residential mortgage loans primarily those which are categorized as sub-prime.

Sub-prime mortgages are loans to homebuyers who have weak or impaired credit histories, are loans that are non-conforming or are loans that are second in priority. The Company does not sell or buy sub-prime mortgages directly. The Company’s exposure to sub-prime mortgages is through ABS. These securities are pools of mortgages that have been securitized and offered to investors as asset-backed securities, where the mortgages are collateral. Most of the underlying mortgages within the pool have FICO scores below 660 at issuance. Therefore, the ABS has been classified by the Company as a sub-prime mortgage position. Also included in the Company’s total sub-prime mortgage position are ABS with second lien mortgages as collateral. The second lien mortgages may not necessarily have sub-prime FICO scores; however, the Company has included these ABS in its sub-prime position as it’s the second priority in terms of repayment. The Company does not have any “direct” residential mortgages to sub-prime borrowers outside of the ABS structures.

All ABS-housing securities are monitored and reviewed on a monthly basis with detailed cash flow models using the current collateral pool and capital structure on each portfolio quarterly. Model output is generated under base and several stress-case scenarios. ABS-housing asset specialists utilize widely recognized industry modeling software to perform a loan-by-loan, bottom-up approach to modeling. The ABS-housing models incorporate external estimates on property valuations, borrower characteristics, propensity of a borrower to default or prepay and the overall security structure. Defaults were estimated by identifying the loans that are in various delinquency buckets and defaulting a certain percentage of them over the near-term and long-term. Recent payment history, a percentage of on-going delinquency rates and a constant prepayment rate are also incorporated into the model. Once the entire pool is modeled, the results are closely analyzed by the asset specialist to determine whether or not our particular tranche or holding is at risk for payment interruption. Holdings are impaired to projected cash flows where loss events have taken place (or are projected to take place on structured securities) that would affect future cash flows on our particular tranche.

Sub-prime holdings fair values have declined as the collateral pools have experienced higher than expected delinquencies and losses, further exacerbated by the impact of declining home values on borrowers using affordability products. Further impacting the unrealized losses is spread widening due to illiquidity as well as increased extension risk due to slower than expected prepayments. Despite the continued decline in the margin of safety on these securities during 2008, cash flow models indicate full recovery of principal and interest for each of the Company’s particular holdings in an unrealized loss position.

5. Investments (continued)

For ABS in an unrealized loss position, the Company considers them for impairment when there has been an adverse change in estimated cash flows from the cash flows previously projected at purchase, which is in accordance with SSAP 43, Loan-backed and Structured Securities. The Company did not impair any of its sub-prime mortgage positions in 2008 or 2007.

The actual cost, carrying amount and fair value of the Company’s sub-prime mortgage- backed ABS holdings at December 31, 2008 are $66,543, $66,514 and $49,487, respectively. As the remaining unrealized losses in the ABS housing portfolio relate to holdings where the Company expects to receive full principal and interest, the Company does not consider the underlying investments to be impaired as of December 31, 2008.

At December 31, 2008, the Company’s commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) portfolio had a fair value $23,321 less than the carrying amount. CMBS are securitizations of underlying pools of mortgages on commercial real estate. The underlying mortgages have varying risk characteristics and are pooled together and sold in different rated tranches. The Company’s CMBS includes conduit and single borrower mortgages.

All CMBS securities are monitored and modeled under base and several stress-case scenarios by asset specialists. For conduit securities, a widely recognized industry modeling software is used to perform a loan-by-loan, bottom-up approach. For non-conduit securities a CMBS asset specialist works closely with the Company’s real estate valuation group to determine underlying asset valuation and risk. Both methodologies incorporate external estimates on the property market, capital markets, property cash flows, and loan structure. Results are then closely analyzed by the asset specialist to determine whether or not a principal or interest loss is expected to occur. If cash flow models indicate a credit event will impact future cash flows, the security is impaired to undiscounted cash flows.

All of the securities in an unrealized loss position are rated investment grade. As the remaining unrealized losses in the CMBS portfolio relate to holdings where the Company expects to receive full principal and interest, the Company does not consider the underlying investments to be impaired as of December 31, 2008.

During 2008 and 2007, the Company did not issue any mortgage loans.

During 2008, 2007 and 2006, no mortgage loans were foreclosed and transferred to real estate. At December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, the Company held a mortgage loan loss reserve in the asset valuation reserve of $61, $233 and $243, respectively.

At December 31, 2008, the Company had three LIHTC. The remaining years of unexpired tax credits ranged from three to nine and none of the properties were subject to regulatory review. The length of time remaining for holding periods ranged from seven to thirteen years. The amount of contingent equity commitments expected to be paid during the years 2009 to 2013 is $1,491. There were no impairment losses, write-downs or reclassifications during 2008 related to these credits.

At December 31, 2007, the Company had three LIHTC. The remaining years of unexpired tax credits ranged from four to ten and none of the properties were subject to regulatory review.

Derivative instruments are subject to market risk, which is the possibility that future changes in market prices may make the instruments less valuable. The Company uses derivatives as hedges, consequently, when the value of the derivative changes, the value of a corresponding hedged asset or liability will move in the opposite direction. Market risk is a consideration when changes in the value of the derivative and the hedged item do not completely offset (correlation or basis risk) which is mitigated by active measuring and monitoring.

Under exchange traded futures and options, the Company agrees to purchase a specified number of contracts with other parties and to post a variation margin on a daily basis in an amount equal to the difference in the daily market values of those contracts. The parties with whom the Company enters into exchange traded futures and options are regulated futures commissions merchants who are members of a trading exchange. The Company recognized net realized gains (losses) from futures contracts in the amount of $9,756, $(2,240) and $(858) for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

6. Reinsurance

The Company reinsures portions of certain insurance policies which exceed its established limits, thereby providing a greater diversification of risk and minimizing exposure on larger risks. The Company remains contingently liable with respect to any insurance ceded, and this would become an actual liability in the event that the assuming insurance company became unable to meet its obligations under the reinsurance treaty.

Premiums earned reflect the following reinsurance ceded amounts for the year ended December 31:


	Year Ended December 31
	2008			2007			2006

Direct premiums	$	990,717		$	1,084,449		$	1,229,963
Reinsurance assumed — affiliated		3,730			3,853			2,382
Reinsurance ceded — affiliated		(170,903	)		(48,572	)		(43,611	)
Reinsurance ceded — non-affiliated		(34,702	)		(25,946	)		(21,609	)

6. Reinsurance (continued)

The Company received reinsurance recoveries in the amount of $40,858, $37,977 and $34,248 during 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, estimated amounts recoverable from reinsurers that have been deducted from policy and contract claim reserves totaled $19,752 and $14,863, respectively. The aggregate reserves for policies and contracts were reduced for reserve credits for reinsurance ceded at December 31, 2008 and 2007 of $266,137 and $112,489, respectively. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the amount of reserve credits for reinsurance ceded that represented unauthorized affiliated companies were $224,853 and $75,817, respectively.

The net amount of the reduction in surplus at December 31, 2008 if all reinsurance agreements were cancelled is $8,307.

The Company has entered into an indemnity reinsurance agreement effective December 31, 2008, with Transamerica International Re (Bermuda) Ltd, an affiliate of the Company, to cede on a 100% quota share basis the net liabilities associated with certain of the Company’s variable annuity products on a coinsurance and modified coinsurance basis. The Company ceded reserves on a coinsurance basis of $133,875, received consideration of $12,780 and established a funds withheld liability of $121,095. The pretax gain of $12,780 ($8,307 on a net of tax basis) has been reclassified to equity in accordance with SSAP 61, Life, Deposit-Type and Accident and Health Reinsurance. The Company ceded general account and separate account reserves on a modified coinsurance basis of $303,642 and $1,703,276, respectively. An initial reinsurance premium equal to the reserves ceded was recorded, resulting in no gain or loss on the modified coinsurance portion on this transaction. At December 31, 2008, the Company holds collateral in the form of letters of credit of $95,000 from the assuming company.

Effective October 1, 2008 the Company recaptured various guaranteed minimum death benefit riders included in certain of its variable annuity contracts that were previously ceded to Transamerica International Re (Bermuda) Ltd., an affiliate, under a 2001 reinsurance agreement. The Company released a funds withheld liability of $14,716 associated with this business and paid recapture consideration of $36,703. Reserves recaptured included $71,423 of GMDB reserves and $1,927 of claim reserves. The resulting pretax loss of $95,337 was included in the Summary of Operations in accordance with SSAP 61. In addition, the unamortized pre-tax ceded gain held by the Company in unassigned surplus resulting from the original reinsurance transaction was released into income in the amount of $5,925 ($3,851 net of tax). Prior to this transaction, the Company had amortized $1,367 and $1,823 on a pre-tax basis ($889 and $1,185 on a net of tax basis) into earnings for 2008 and 2007, respectively, with a corresponding charge to unassigned surplus.

6. Reinsurance (continued)

During 2006, the Company entered into a reinsurance agreement with Transamerica International Reinsurance Ireland, Ltd. (TIRI) an affiliate, to retrocede an inforce block of term life business effective January 1, 2006. The difference between the initial commission expense allowance received of $700 and ceded reserves of $332 resulted in an initial transaction gain of $368, which was credited to unassigned surplus on a net of tax basis in the amount of $240, in accordance with SSAP No. 61. For each of the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company amortized $24 into earnings with a corresponding charge to unassigned surplus.

During 2007, the Company recaptured the risks related to the universal life business that was previously ceded to TIRI on a funds withheld basis. The Company paid recapture consideration of $525 and received $81 for assets recaptured related to the block. Reserves recaptured included $5,453 in life reserves and $30 in other claim reserves, resulting in a net pre-tax loss of $5,927, which is included in the statement of operations.

Letters of credit held for all unauthorized reinsurers as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 were $131,155 and $79,000, respectively.

7. Income Taxes (continued)

For federal income tax purposes, the Company joins in a consolidated income tax return filing with its indirect parent company, Transamerica Corporation, and other affiliated companies. The method of allocation between the companies is subject to a written agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, allocations are based upon separate return calculations. The Company is entitled to recoup federal income taxes paid in the event of future losses and credits to the extent the losses and credits reduce the greater of the Company’s separately computed tax liability or the consolidated group’s tax liability in the year generated. The Company is also entitled to recoup federal income taxes paid in the event of future losses and credits to the extent the losses and credits reduce the greater of the Company’s separately computed tax liability or the consolidated group’s tax liability in any carryback or carryforward year when so applied. Intercompany tax balances are settled within 30 days of payment to or filing with the Internal Revenue Service.

The Company did not incur income taxes during 2008, which will be available for recoupment in the event of future net losses. The Company incurred income taxes during 2007 and 2006 of $60,165 and $65,214, respectively, which will be available for recoupment in the event of future net losses.

The amount of tax contingencies calculated for the Company as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 is not material to the Company’s financial position. Therefore, the total amount of tax contingencies that, if recognized, would affect the effective income tax rate is immaterial. The Company classifies interest and penalties related to income taxes as interest expense and penalty expense, respectively. The Company’s interest expense related to income taxes as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 was not material and the Company recorded no liability for penalties.

The Company’s federal income tax returns have been examined by the Internal Revenue Service and closing agreements have been executed through 2000. The examination for the years 2001 through 2004 has been completed and resulted in tax return adjustments that are currently being appealed. The Company believes that there are adequate defenses against or sufficient provisions established related to any open or contested tax positions. An examination is currently underway for 2005 and 2006. The 2007 tax return has been filed but no examination has commenced.

For Variable Annuities with Guaranteed Living Benefits (VAGLB), the Company complies with Actuarial Guideline 39. This guideline defines a two step process for the determination of VAGLB reserves. The first step is to establish a reserve equal to the accumulated VAGLB charges for the policies in question. The second step requires a standalone asset adequacy analysis to determine the sufficiency of these reserves. This step has been satisfied by projecting 30 years into the future along 1000 stochastic variable return paths using a variety of assumptions as to VAGLB charges, lapse, withdrawal, annuitization and death. The results of this analysis are discounted back to the valuation date and compared to the accumulation of fees reserve to determine if an additional reserve needs to be established.

At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had variable annuities with guaranteed death benefits as follows:

8. Policy and Contract Attributes (continued)

For Variable Annuities with Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefits (MGDB), the Company complies with Actuarial Guideline 34. This guideline requires that MGDBs be projected by assuming an immediate drop in the values of the assets supporting the variable annuity contract, followed by a subsequent recovery at a net assumed return until the maturity of the contract. The immediate drop percentages and gross assumed returns vary by asset class and are defined in the guideline. Mortality is based on the 1994 Variable Annuity MGDB Mortality Table, which is also defined in the guideline.

Reserves on the Company’s traditional life insurance products are computed using mean reserving methodologies. These methodologies result in the establishment of assets for the amount of the net valuation premiums that are anticipated to be received between the policy’s paid-through date to the policy’s next anniversary date. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, these assets (which are reported as premiums deferred and uncollected) and the amounts of the related gross premiums and loading, are as follows:


	Gross		Loading			Net

December 31, 2008
Ordinary direct renewal business	$	2,796	$	1,625		$	4,421
Ordinary new business		9		1			10

	$	2,805	$	1,626		$	4,431

Ordinary new business		262		(151	)		111

	$	3,308	$	1,662		$	4,970

At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had insurance in force aggregating $3,644,366 and $2,170,424 respectively, in which the gross premiums are less than the net premiums required by the valuation standards established by the Ohio Department of Insurance. The Company established policy reserves of $22,357 and $15,281 to cover these deficiencies at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The Company anticipates investment income as a factor in the premium deficiency calculation, in accordance with SSAP No. 54, Individual and Group Accident and Health Contracts.

9. Capital and Surplus

The Company is subject to limitations, imposed by the State of Ohio, on the payment of dividends to its parent company, AEGON. Generally, dividends during any twelve month period may not be paid, without prior regulatory approval, in excess of the greater of (a) 10 percent of statutory surplus as of the preceding December 31, or (b) net income for the preceding year. Subject to the availability of unassigned surplus at the time of such dividend, the maximum payment which may be made in 2009, without the prior approval of insurance regulatory authorities, is $23,477.

On December 29, 2008 the Company paid a $200,000 common stock dividend to its parent company. Of this amount, $131,600 was considered an ordinary cash dividend and $68,400 was considered an extraordinary dividend. The Company received approval from the Ohio Department of Insurance to make the dividend payment. The Company paid ordinary common stock dividends of $110,000 and $2,000 to its parent on December 19, 2007 and September 8, 2006, respectively.

Life/health insurance companies are subject to certain Risk-Based Capital (RBC) requirements as specified by the NAIC. Under those requirements, the amount of capital and surplus maintained by a life/health insurance company is to be determined based on the various risk factors related to it. At December 31, 2008, the Company meets the RBC requirements.

10. Retirement and Compensation Plans

The Company’s employees participate in a qualified benefit plan sponsored by AEGON. The Company has no legal obligation for the plan. The Company recognizes pension expense equal to its allocation from AEGON. The pension expense is allocated among the participating companies based on International Accounting Standards 19 (IAS 19), Accounting for Employee Benefits as a percent of salaries. The benefits are based on years of service and the employee’s compensation during the highest five consecutive years of employment. Pension expense allocated to the Company aggregated $1,444, $1,829 and $1,432 for 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The plan is subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the Employee Retirement and Income Security Act of 1974.

10. Retirement and Compensation Plans (continued)

The Company’s employees also participate in a contributory defined contribution plan sponsored by AEGON which is qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Service Code. Employees of the Company who customarily work at least 1,000 hours during each calendar year and meet the other eligibility requirements are participants of the plan. Participants may elect to contribute up to twenty-five percent of their salary to the plan. The Company will match an amount up to three percent of the participant’s salary. Participants may direct all of their contributions and plan balances to be invested in a variety of investment options. The plan is subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the Employee Retirement and Income Security Act of 1974. Expense related to this plan was $793, $905 and $864 for 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

AEGON sponsors supplemental retirement plans to provide the Company’s senior management with benefits in excess of normal pension benefits. The plans are noncontributory and benefits are based on years of service and the employee’s compensation level. The plans are unfunded and nonqualified under the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, AEGON has established incentive deferred compensation plans for certain key employees of the Company. The Company’s allocation of expense for these plans for 2008, 2007 and 2006 was insignificant. AEGON also sponsors an employee stock option plan/stock appreciation rights for employees of the Company and a stock purchase plan for its producers, with the participating affiliated companies establishing their own eligibility criteria, producer contribution limits and company matching formula. These plans have been funded as deemed appropriate by management of AEGON and the Company.

In addition to pension benefits, the Company participates in plans sponsored by AEGON that provide postretirement medical, dental and life insurance benefits to employees meeting certain eligibility requirements. Portions of the medical and dental plans are contributory. The postretirement expenses are charged to affiliates in accordance with an intercompany cost sharing arrangement. The Company expensed $143, $179 and $147 for 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

11. Related Party Transactions

During 2008, 2007 and 2006, the Company paid $95,980, $106,392 and $94,305, respectively, for such services, which approximates their costs to the affiliates. During 2006, the Company executed an administration service agreement with Transamerica Fund Advisors, Inc. to provide administrative services to the AEGON/Transamerica Series Trust. The Company received $30,230, $38,629 and $36,528 from this agreement during 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Company provides office space, marketing and administrative services to certain affiliates. During 2008, 2007 and 2006, the Company received $95,867, $100,815 and $91,726, respectively, for such services, which approximates their cost.

Receivables from and payables to affiliates and intercompany borrowings bear interest at the thirty-day commercial paper rate.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is a party to legal proceedings involving a variety of issues incidental to its business. Lawsuits may be brought in nearly any federal or state court in the United States or in an arbitral forum. In addition, there continues to be significant federal and state regulatory activity relating to financial services companies. The Company’s legal proceedings are subject to many variables, and given its complexity and scope, outcomes cannot be predicted with certainty. Although legal proceedings sometimes include substantial demands for compensatory and punitive damages, and injunctive relief, it is management’s opinion that damages arising from such demands will not be material to the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

12. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

The Company is subject to insurance guaranty laws in the states in which it writes business. These laws provide for assessments against insurance companies for the benefit of policyholders and claimants in the event of insolvency of other insurance companies. Assessments are charged to operations when received by the Company except where right of offset against other taxes paid is allowed by law; amounts available for future offsets are recorded as an asset on the Company’s balance sheet. The future obligation has been based on the most recent information available from the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Association. Potential future obligations for unknown insolvencies are not determinable by the Company and are not required to be accrued for financial reporting purposes. The Company has established a reserve of $3,337 and $3,344 with no offsetting premium tax benefit at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, for its estimated share of future guaranty fund assessments related to several major insurer insolvencies. The guaranty fund expense (credit) was $36, $(22) and $36 for 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The Company participates in an agent-managed securities lending program. The Company receives collateral equal to 102% of the fair market value of the loaned government/other domestic securities, respectively, as of the transaction date. If the fair value of the collateral is at any time less than 102% of the fair value of the loaned securities, the counterparty is mandated to deliver additional collateral, the fair value of which, together with the collateral already held in connection with the lending transaction, is at least equal to 102% of the fair value of the loaned government/other domestic securities, respectively. In the event the Company loans a foreign security and the denomination of the currency of the collateral is other than the denomination of the currency of the loaned foreign security, the Company receives and maintains collateral equal to 105% of the fair market value of the loaned security.

At December 31, 2007, securities in the amount of $158,452 were on loan under securities lending agreements. At December 31, 2007 the collateral the Company received from securities lending was in the form of cash. At December 31, 2008, there were no securities on loan under securities lending agreements.

The Company has contingent commitments of $1,491 and $2,053 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, for LIHTC investments.

The Company is required by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to maintain assets on deposit with brokers for futures trading activity done on behalf of the Company. The broker has a secured interest with priority in the pledged assets, however, the Company has the right to recall and substitute the pledged assets. At December 31, 2008 and 2007 respectively, the Company pledged assets in the amount of $36,127 and $6,449 to satisfy the requirements of futures trading accounts.

Item 29. Indemnification

Provisions exist under the Ohio General Corporation Law, the Second Amended Articles of Incorporation of Western Reserve and the Amended Code of Regulations of Western Reserve whereby Western Reserve may indemnify certain persons against certain payments incurred by such persons. The following excerpts contain the substance of these provisions.

Ohio General Corporation Law

Section 1701.13 Authority of corporation.

(E)(1) A corporation may indemnify or agree to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation (including a subsidiary of this corporation), domestic or foreign, nonprofit or for profit, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendre or its equivalent, shall not, of itself create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

(2) A corporation may indemnify or agree to indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, domestic or foreign, nonprofit or for profit, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any of the following:

C- 17

(a) Any claim, issue, or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation unless, and only to the extent that the court of common pleas, or the court in which such action or suit was brought determines upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court of common pleas or such other court shall deem proper;

(b) Any action or suit in which the only liability asserted against a director is pursuant to section 1701.95 of the Revised Code.

(3) To the extent that a director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit, or proceeding referred to in divisions (E)(1) and (2) of this section, or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

(4) Any indemnification under divisions (E)(1) and (2) of this section, unless ordered by a court, shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in divisions (E)(1) and (2) of this section. Such determination shall be made as follows:

(a) By a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors of the indemnifying corporation who were not and are not parties to or threatened with any such action, suit, or proceeding;

(b) If the quorum described in division (E)(4)(a) of this section is not obtainable or if a majority vote of a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, in a written opinion by independent legal counsel other than an attorney, or a firm having associated with it an attorney, who has been retained by or who has performed services for the corporation, or any person to be indemnified within the past five years;

(d) By the court of common pleas or the court in which such action, suit, or proceeding was brought.

Any determination made by the disinterested directors under division (E)(4)(a) or by independent legal counsel under division (E)(4)(b) of this section shall be promptly communicated to the person who threatened or brought the action or suit by or in the right of the corporation under division (E)(2) of this section, and within ten days after receipt of such notification, such person shall have the right to petition the court of common pleas or the court in which such action or suit was brought to review the reasonableness of such determination.

(5)(a) Unless at the time of a director’s act or omission that is the subject of an action, suit or proceeding referred to in divisions (E)(1) and (2) of this section, the articles or the regulations of a corporation state by specific reference to this division that the provisions of this division do not apply to the corporation and unless the only liability asserted against a director in an action, suit, or proceeding referred to in divisions (E)(1) and (2) of this section is pursuant to section 1701.95 of the Revised Code, expenses, including attorney’s fees, incurred by a director in defending the action, suit, or proceeding shall be paid by the corporation as they are incurred, in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit, or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director in which he agrees to do both of the following:

(i) Repay such amount if it is proved by clear and convincing evidence in a court of competent jurisdiction that his action or failure to act involved an act or omission undertaken with deliberate intent to cause injury to the corporation or undertaken with reckless disregard for the best interests of the corporation;

(ii) Reasonably cooperate with the corporation concerning the action, suit, or proceeding.

C- 18

(b) Expenses, including attorneys’ fees incurred by a director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent in defending any action, suit, or proceeding referred to in divisions (E)(1) and (2) of this section, may be paid by the corporation as they are incurred, in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit, or proceeding as authorized by the directors in the specific case upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent to repay such amount, if it ultimately is determined that he is entitled to be indemnified by the corporation.

(6) The indemnification authorized by this section shall not be exclusive of, and shall be in addition to, any other rights granted to those seeking indemnification under the articles or the regulations or any agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person.

(7) A corporation may purchase and maintain insurance or furnish similar protection, including but not limited to trust funds, letters of credit, or self-insurance on behalf of or for any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, domestic or foreign, nonprofit or for profit, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under this section. Insurance may be purchased from or maintained with a person in which the corporation has a financial interest.

(8) The authority of a corporation to indemnify persons pursuant to divisions (E)(1) and (2) of this section does not limit the payment of expenses as they are incurred, indemnification, insurance, or other protection that may be provided pursuant to divisions (E)(5), (6), and (7) of this section. Divisions (E)(1) and (2) of this section do not create any obligation to repay or return payments made by the corporation pursuant to divisions (E)(5), (6), or (7).

(9) As used in this division, references to “corporation” include all constituent corporations in a consolidation or merger and the new or surviving corporation, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of such a constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, domestic or foreign, nonprofit or for profit, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this section with respect to the new or surviving corporation as he would if he had served the new or surviving corporation in the same capacity.

Second Amended Articles of Incorporation of Western Reserve

ARTICLE EIGHTH

EIGHTH: (1) The corporation may indemnify or agree to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation (including a subsidiary of this corporation), domestic or foreign, nonprofit or for profit, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendre or its equivalent, shall not, of itself create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

C- 19

(2) The corporation may indemnify or agree to indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation (including a subsidiary of this corporation), domestic or foreign, nonprofit or for profit, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation unless, and only to the extent that the court of common pleas, or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court of common pleas or such other court shall deem proper.

(3) To the extent that a director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit, or proceeding referred to in sections (1) and (2) of this article, or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

(4) Any indemnification under sections (1) and (2) of this article, unless ordered by a court, shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in sections (1) and (2) of this article. Such determination shall be made (a) by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors of the indemnifying corporation who were not and are not parties to or threatened with any such action, suit, or proceeding, or (b) if such a quorum is not obtainable or if a majority vote of a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, in a written opinion by independent legal counsel other than an attorney, or a firm having associated with it an attorney, who has been retained by or who has performed services for the corporation, or any person to be indemnified within the past five years, or (c) by the shareholders, or (d) by the court of common pleas or the court in which such action, suit, or proceeding was brought. Any determination made by the disinterested directors under section (4)(a) or by independent legal counsel under section (4)(b) of this article shall be promptly communicated to the person who threatened or brought the action or suit by or in the right of the corporation under section (2) of this article, and within ten days after receipt of such notification, such person shall have the right to petition the court of common pleas or the court in which such action or suit was brought to review the reasonableness of such determination.

(5) Expenses, including attorneys’ fees incurred in defending any action, suit, or proceeding referred to in sections (1) and (2) of this article, may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit, or proceeding as authorized by the directors in the specific case upon receipt of a written undertaking by or on behalf of the director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent to repay such amount, unless it shall ultimately be determined that he is entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this article. If a majority vote of a quorum of disinterested directors so directs by resolution, said written undertaking need not be submitted to the corporation. Such a determination that a written undertaking need not be submitted to the corporation shall in no way affect the entitlement of indemnification as authorized by this article.

(6) The indemnification provided by this article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under the articles or the regulations or any agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person.

(7) The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation (including a subsidiary of this corporation), domestic or foreign, nonprofit or for profit, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and

C- 20

incurred by him in any such capacity or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under this section.

(8) As used in this section, references to “the corporation” include all constituent corporations in a consolidation or merger and the new or surviving corporation, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of such a constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of another corporation (including a subsidiary of this corporation), domestic or foreign, nonprofit or for profit, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise shall stand in the same position under this article with respect to the new or surviving corporation as he would if he had served the new or surviving corporation in the same capacity.

(9) The foregoing provisions of this article do not apply to any proceeding against any trustee, investment manager or other fiduciary of an employee benefit plan in such person’s capacity as such, even though such person may also be an agent of this corporation. The corporation may indemnify such named fiduciaries of its employee benefit plans against all costs and expenses, judgments, fines, settlements or other amounts actually and reasonably incurred by or imposed upon said named fiduciary in connection with or arising out of any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding in which the named fiduciary may be made a party by reason of being or having been a named fiduciary, to the same extent it indemnifies an agent of the corporation. To the extent that the corporation does not have the direct legal power to indemnify, the corporation may contract with the named fiduciaries of its employee benefit plans to indemnify them to the same extent as noted above. The corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of such named fiduciary covering any liability to the same extent that it contracts to indemnify.

Amended Code of Regulations of Western Reserve

ARTICLE V

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Each Director, officer and member of a committee of this Corporation, and any person who may have served at the request of this Corporation as a Director, officer or member of a committee of any other corporation in which this Corporation owns shares of capital stock or of which this Corporation is a creditor (and his heirs, executors and administrators) shall be indemnified by the Corporation against all expenses, costs, judgments, decrees, fines or penalties as provided by, and to the extent allowed by, Article Eighth of the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended.

Rule 484 Undertaking

Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of Western Reserve pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, Western Reserve has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by Western Reserve of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of Western Reserve in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, Western Reserve will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
