Dear Fellow Shareholder,

On behalf of Transamerica Premier Funds, we would like to thank you for your continued support and confidence in our products as we look forward to continuing to serve you and your financial advisor in the future. We value the trust you have placed in us.

This semi-annual report is provided to you with the intent of presenting a comprehensive review of the investments of each of your funds. The Securities and Exchange Commission requires that annual and semi-annual reports be sent to all shareholders, and we believe this report to be an important part of the investment process. In addition to providing a comprehensive review, this report also provides a discussion of accounting policies as well as matters presented to shareholders that may have required their vote.

We believe it is important to recognize and understand current market conditions in order to provide a context for reading this report. During the past six months, markets have oscillated from weakness in conjunction with investors’ continuing concerns over the health of the economy to strength in conjunction with investor optimism of recovery and bargain hunting. The equity markets touched new lows in March, and then subsequently rallied sharply. The period ended in June with markets stuck in a trading range as investors began to question the timing and strength of an economic recovery as data was mixed and unemployment remained at multi-decade highs. As investors have become skeptical regarding an economic recovery, the U.S. dollar’s negative momentum has slowed from earlier in 2009, and the dollar ended the period in a trading range versus the Euro, British pound, and the yen. Oil prices have come off of their highs of the year in concert with moderating dollar weakness. The Federal Reserve continues to keep the federal funds rate in a range of 0%-0.25%. Investors have become somewhat skeptical of the impact of the government stimulus package, as the unemployment rate continues to climb and reached 9.5% in June. Bargain hunting, particularly in prior months, has led to year-to-date gains for particular equity and fixed-income sectors, including emerging market stocks, technology stocks, and high yield bonds. For the six months ending June 30, 2009, the Dow Jones Industrial Average returned -2.01%, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index returned 3.16%, and the Barclay’s Capital Aggregate U.S. Bond Index returned 1.90%. Please keep in mind it is important to maintain a diversified portfolio as investment returns have historically been difficult to predict.

In addition to your active involvement in the investment process, we firmly believe that a financial advisor is a key resource to help you build a complete picture of your current and future financial needs. Financial advisors are familiar with the market’s history, including long-term returns and volatility of various asset classes. With your financial advisor, you can develop an investment program that incorporates factors such as your goals, your investment timeline, and your risk tolerance.

Please contact your financial advisor if you have any questions about the contents of this report, and thanks again for the confidence you have placed in us.

Sincerely,


John K. Carter President & Chief Executive Officer		Christopher A. Staples Vice President & Chief Investment Officer

Understanding Your Funds’ Expenses
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.

The following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at January 1, 2009 and held for the entire period until June 30, 2009.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The information in the table under the heading “Actual Expenses” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = $8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Expenses” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Expenses” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

Expense ratios may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses that are not covered by the advisory and administrative fees such as fees and expenses of the trustees and their counsel, extraordinary expenses and interest expense.

(b)		5% return per year before expenses.

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Transamerica Investors, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end, management investment company. The Company is composed of eleven Funds: Transamerica Premier Balanced Fund (the “Balanced Fund”), Transamerica Premier Cash Reserve Fund (the “Cash Reserve Fund”), Transamerica Premier Diversified Equity Fund (the “Diversified Equity Fund”), Transamerica Premier Equity Fund (the “Equity Fund”), Transamerica Premier Focus Fund (the “Focus Fund”), Transamerica Premier Growth Opportunities Fund (the “Growth Opportunities Fund”), Transamerica Premier High Yield Bond Fund (the “High Yield Bond Fund”), Transamerica Premier Institutional Bond Fund (the “Institutional Bond Fund”), Transamerica Premier Institutional Diversified Equity Fund (the “Institutional Diversified Equity Fund”), Transamerica Premier Institutional Equity Fund (the “Institutional Equity Fund”), and Transamerica Premier Institutional Small Cap Value Fund (the “Institutional Small Cap Value Fund”), and (individually, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”). All of the Funds are diversified except the Focus Fund, which is non-diversified under the 1940 Act. For information on investment objectives and strategies, please refer to the Funds’ prospectus.

The Company currently offers two classes of shares, either an Investor and/or an Institutional class in each of the Funds.

This report should be read in conjunction with the Funds’ current prospectus, which contains more complete information.

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds and/or their affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

In preparing the Funds’ financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.

Multiple class operations and expenses: Income, non-class specific expenses, and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

Security valuations: The Funds value their investments at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), normally 4 p.m. ET, each day the NYSE is open for business. The Funds’ investments are valued at the last sale price or closing price on the day of valuation taken from the primary exchange where the security is principally traded.

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Debt securities are valued based on a price quotation or other equivalent indication of value supplied by an exchange, a pricing service or a major market maker; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, the Cash Reserve Fund values its securities at amortized cost, which with accrued interest approximates fair value.

Securities for which quotations are not readily available or whose values have been determined to be unreliable are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith by Transamerica Asset Management, Inc.’s (“TAM”) Valuation Committee under the supervision of the Board of Trustees.

The Funds are subject to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques giving the highest priority to readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (“Level 1”) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (“Level 3”) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three levels of the hierarchy under FAS 157 are described below:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc).

Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The aggregate value by input level, at June 30, 2009, for the Funds’ investments, as well as a reconciliation of assets for which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining value, is included at the end of each Funds’ Schedules of Investments.

NOTE 1. (continued)

Repurchase agreements: The Funds are authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Funds, through their custodian, receive delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. The Funds will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs may be incurred.

Commission recapture: Transamerica Investment Management, LLC is the only sub-adviser to the Funds and to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, has elected to place security transactions of the Funds with broker/dealers with which Transamerica Premier Funds has established a Commission Recapture Program. A Commission Recapture Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Funds. In no event will commissions paid by the Funds be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within Transamerica Premier Funds, or by any other party.

Recaptured commissions for the period ended June 30, 2009 are included in net realized gains in the Statements of Operations and are summarized as follows:


Fund	Commissions

Balanced Fund	$	5
Diversified Equity Fund		4
Equity Fund		15
Focus Fund		1
Growth Opportunities Fund		3
Institutional Diversified Equity Fund		—	*
Institutional Equity Fund		2
Institutional Small Cap Value Fund		1


*		Amount rounds to less than $1.

Securities lending: The Funds may lend securities to qualified financial institutions and brokers. The lending of Fund securities exposes the Funds to risks such as the following: (i) the borrower may fail to return the loaned securities; (ii) the borrower may not be able to provide additional collateral; (iii) the Funds may experience delays in recovery of the loaned securities or delays in access to collateral; or (iv) the Funds may experience losses related to the investment collateral. To minimize certain of these risks, loan counterparties pledge cash collateral equal to at least the market value of the securities loaned. Cash collateral received is invested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Trust-Prime Portfolio, a money market mutual fund registered under the 1940 Act. By lending such securities, the Funds attempt to increase their net investment income through the receipt of interest (after rebates and fees). Such income is reflected separately on the Statements of Operations. The value of loaned securities and the liability to return the cash collateral received are reflected on the Schedules of Investments and Statements of Assets and Liabilities. There were no securities on loan at June 30, 2009.

Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Gains and losses on sales of securities are determined on the identified cost basis for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. Interest income and operating expenses are recorded daily on an accrual basis. Discount is recorded on a daily basis using the effective yield method, except the Cash Reserve Fund, which recognizes discount and premium on a straight-line basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Dividend income, related to Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REIT”), is recorded at management’s estimate of the income included in distributions from the REIT investments. Distributions received in excess of the estimated amount are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments. The actual amounts of income, return of capital and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after the fiscal year end and may differ from the estimated amounts.

Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP.

Temporary guarantee program: Transamerica Premier Cash Reserve has enrolled in the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s “Treasury” Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds (the “Program”) through September 18, 2009. Under the Program, the Treasury guarantees the $1.00 dollar per share value of fund shares outstanding as of September 19, 2008, subject to certain terms and limitations “Covered Shares”.

The guarantee will be triggered if the market-based net asset value of any class percentage of Transamerica Premier Cash Reserve is less than $0.995, unless promptly cured (a “Guarantee Event”). If a Guarantee Event were to occur, Transamerica Premier Cash Reserve would be required to liquidate. Upon liquidation and subject to the availability of funds under the Program, eligible shareholders would be entitled to receive payments equal to $1.00 per Covered Share. The number of Covered Shares held by a shareholder would be equal to the lesser of (1) the number of shares owned by that shareholder on September 19, 2008 or (2) the number of shares owned by that shareholder on the date upon which the Guarantee Event occurs.

The initial period of the Program covered a three month period from September 19, 2008 to December 18, 2008. The program was extended from December 19, 2008 through April 30, 2009, and again from May 1, 2009 through September 18, 2009 (the “Program Extension Periods”). Participation in the Program extension periods required payment of additional fees. Transamerica Premier Cash Reserve paid to the Treasury a fee of 0.01% of its net assets as of September 19, 2008 to participate in the initial three month period of the Program and a fee of 0.015% of its net assets as of September 19, 2008 to participate in each of the Program Extension Periods.

NOTE 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

The Funds have not made any provisions for federal income or excise taxes due to their policy to distribute all of their taxable income and capital gains to their shareholders and otherwise qualify as regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. Management has evaluated the Funds’ tax provisions taken for all open tax years and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatment for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, structured notes, foreign bonds, swaps, net operating losses and distribution reclasses.

TRANSAMERICA INVESTORS, INC.

TRANSAMERICA PREMIER BALANCED FUND

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS — CONTRACT RENEWAL

At a meeting of the Board of Directors of Transamerica Investors, Inc. (the “Board”) held on June 4, 2009, the Board reviewed and considered the renewal of the investment advisory agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) between Transamerica Premier Balanced Fund (the “Fund”) and Transamerica Asset Management, Inc. (“TAM”), as well as the renewal of the investment sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) of the Fund between TAM and Transamerica Investment Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), to determine whether the agreements should be renewed.

Following their review and consideration, the Directors determined that the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement would enable shareholders of the Fund to obtain high quality services at a cost that is appropriate, fair, and in the best interests of Fund shareholders. The Board, including the independent members of the Board, unanimously approved the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement through June 30, 2010. In reaching their decision, the Directors requested and obtained from TAM and the Sub-Adviser such information as they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the agreements, including information about fees and performance of comparable funds managed by the Sub-Adviser. The Directors noted that TAM and the Sub-Adviser do not manage any comparable separate accounts. The Directors also carefully considered information they had previously received from TAM and the Sub-Adviser as part of their regular oversight of the Fund, as well as comparative fee, expense, and performance information prepared by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of mutual fund performance, and fee and expense information and profitability data prepared by management. In considering the proposed continuation of the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Directors evaluated a number of considerations that they believed, in light of the legal advice furnished to them by independent legal counsel and their own business judgment, to be relevant. They based their decisions on the following considerations, among others, although they did not identify any consideration or particular information that was controlling of their decisions:

The nature, extent and quality of the advisory services to be provided. The Board considered the nature and quality of the services provided by TAM and the Sub-Adviser to the Fund in the past, as well as the services anticipated to be provided in the future. The Directors also reviewed the Sub-Adviser’s investment approach for the Fund. The Directors noted that they receive, on a quarterly basis, an execution analysis from Capital Institutional Services, Inc. (CAPIS), an independent provider of trade analyses, for the Sub-Adviser and a comparison of trading results against a peer universe of managers. The Board concluded that TAM and the Sub-Adviser are capable of providing high quality services to the Fund, as indicated by the nature and quality of services provided in the past by TAM and the Sub-Adviser for this Fund and the experience, capability and integrity of TAM’s senior management, the financial resources of TAM and the Sub-Adviser, TAM’s management oversight process and the professional qualifications of the portfolio management team of the Sub-Adviser. The Directors determined that TAM and the Sub-Adviser can provide investment and related services that are appropriate in scope and extent in light of the Fund’s operations, the competitive landscape of the investment company business and investor needs.

The investment performance of the Fund. The Board examined the short and longer-term performance of the Fund, including relative performance against a peer universe of comparable mutual funds as prepared by Lipper for various trailing periods ended December 31, 2008. The Board noted that the Fund’s performance was below the median for its peer universe for the past 1- and 3-year periods and in line with the median for its peer universe for the past 5-year period. The Directors discussed the reasons for the underperformance, and agreed they would continue to monitor the performance of the Fund closely. On the basis of the Board’s assessment of the nature, extent and quality of advisory services to be provided or procured by TAM and the Sub-Adviser, the Board concluded that TAM and the Sub-Adviser are capable of generating a level of investment performance that is appropriate in light of the Fund’s investment objectives, policies and strategies and competitive with other investment companies.

The cost of advisory services provided and the level of profitability. The Board reviewed profitability information of TAM’s cost of procuring fund management services, as well as the costs of provision of administration, fund accounting and other services, to the Fund and to Transamerica Investors, Inc. as a whole by TAM and its affiliates. The Board reviewed the management and sub-advisory fees for the Fund. The Directors noted that the Fund’s contractual management fee was in line with the median for its expense group and above the median for its expense universe and that the total expenses of the Fund were above the medians for its expense group and universe. Based on their review, the Directors determined that the management and sub-advisory fees of the Fund generally are appropriate in light of the services expected to be provided or procured, and the anticipated profitability of the relationship between the Fund, TAM and its affiliates, and the Sub-Adviser. In making these observations and determinations, the Board reviewed comparative information provided by Lipper.

Whether fee levels reflect economies of scale and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows. The Directors considered the economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund, whether the Fund had appropriately benefited from any economies of scale, and whether there was potential for realization of any further economies of scale. In evaluating the extent to which the management fees payable under the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements reflect economies of scale or will permit economies of scale to be realized in the future, the Board noted that TAM and the Sub-Adviser offer breakpoints which appropriately benefit investors by passing on economies of scale in the form of lower management fees as the level of assets grows. The Directors also concluded that they will have the opportunity to periodically reexamine whether the Fund has achieved economies of scale, and the appropriateness of management fees payable to TAM and fees paid to the Sub-Adviser, in the future.

Benefits to TAM, its affiliates, or the Sub-Adviser from their relationship with the Fund. The Board concluded that other benefits anticipated to be derived by TAM, its affiliates, and the Sub-Adviser from their relationships with the Fund are expected to be consistent with industry practice and the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. The Directors noted that TAM would not realize soft dollar benefits from its relationship with the Fund. The Board also noted that the Sub-Adviser is participating in a brokerage program pursuant to which a portion of brokerage commissions paid by the Fund is recaptured for the benefit of the Fund and its shareholders, thus limiting the amount of soft dollar arrangements the Sub-Adviser may engage in with respect to the Fund’s brokerage transactions.

Other considerations. The Board determined that TAM has made a substantial commitment to the recruitment and retention of high quality personnel, and maintains the financial, compliance and operational resources reasonably necessary to manage the Fund in a professional manner that is consistent with the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. In this regard, the Directors favorably considered the procedures and policies in place by TAM to enforce compliance with applicable laws and regulations and oversee the portfolio management activities of the Sub-Adviser. The Directors also determined that TAM has made a significant entrepreneurial commitment to the management and success of the Fund, reflected by TAM’s expense limitation and fee waiver arrangements with the Fund, which may result in TAM waiving fees for the benefit of shareholders.

Conclusion. After consideration of the factors described above as well as other factors, the Directors, including all of the independent members of the Board, concluded that the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement, including the fees payable there under, were fair and reasonable and voted to approve the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement for the Fund.

In considering the proposed continuation of the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Directors evaluated a number of considerations that they believed, in light of the legal advice furnished to them by independent legal counsel and their own business judgment, to be relevant. They based their decisions on the following considerations, among others, although they did not identify any consideration or particular information that was controlling of their decisions:

The Directors determined that TAM and the Sub-Adviser can provide investment and related services that are appropriate in scope and extent in light of the Fund’s operations, the competitive landscape of the investment company business and investor needs.

The investment performance of the Fund. The Board examined the short and longer-term performance of the Fund, including relative performance against a peer universe of comparable mutual funds as prepared by Lipper for various trailing periods ended December 31, 2008. The Board noted that the Fund’s performance was in the first quintile of its peer universe for the past 1-, 3- and 5- year periods. On the basis of the Board’s assessment of the nature, extent and quality of advisory services to be provided or procured by TAM and the Sub-Adviser, the Board concluded that TAM and the Sub-Adviser are capable of generating a level of investment performance that is appropriate in light of the Fund’s investment objectives, policies and strategies and competitive with other investment companies.

Whether fee levels reflect economies of scale and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows. The Directors considered the economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund, whether the Fund had appropriately benefited from any economies of scale, and whether there was potential for realization of any further economies of scale. The Directors considered the absence of breakpoints in the management fee schedule, and concluded the absence of breakpoints was acceptable under the circumstances. The Directors also concluded that they will have the opportunity to periodically reexamine whether the Fund has achieved economies of scale, and the appropriateness of management fees payable to TAM and fees paid to the Sub-Adviser, in the future.

Whether fee levels reflect economies of scale and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows. The Directors considered the economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund, whether the Fund had appropriately benefited from any economies of scale, and whether there was potential for realization of any further economies of scale. The Directors considered the absence of breakpoints in the management fee schedule, and concluded the absence of breakpoints was acceptable under the circumstances. The Directors also concluded that they will have the opportunity to periodically reexamine whether the Fund has achieved economies of scale, and the appropriateness of management fees payable to TAM and fees paid to the Sub-Adviser, in the future.

TRANSAMERICA PREMIER INSTITUTIONAL BOND FUND

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS — CONTRACT RENEWAL

At a meeting of the Board of Directors of Transamerica Investors, Inc. (the “Board”) held on June 4, 2009, the Board reviewed and considered the renewal of the investment advisory agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) between Transamerica Premier Institutional Bond Fund (the “Fund”) and Transamerica Asset Management, Inc. (“TAM”), as well as the renewal of the investment sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) of the Fund between TAM and Transamerica Investment Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), to determine whether the agreements should be renewed.

Following their review and consideration, the Directors determined that the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement would enable shareholders of the Fund to obtain high quality services at a cost that is appropriate, fair, and in the best interests of Fund shareholders. The Board, including the independent members of the Board, unanimously approved the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement through June 30, 2010. In reaching their decision, the Directors requested and obtained from TAM and the Sub-Adviser such information as they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the agreements, including information about fees and performance of comparable funds managed by the Sub-Adviser. The Directors also carefully considered information they had previously received from TAM and the Sub-Adviser as part of their regular oversight of the Fund, as well as comparative fee, expense, and performance information prepared by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of mutual fund performance, and fee and expense information and profitability data prepared by management. In considering the proposed continuation of the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Directors evaluated a number of considerations that they believed, in light of the legal advice furnished to them by independent legal counsel and their own business judgment, to be relevant. They based their decisions on the following considerations, among others, although they did not identify any consideration or particular information that was controlling of their decisions:

The investment performance of the Fund. The Board examined the short and longer-term performance of the Fund, including relative performance against a peer universe of comparable mutual funds as prepared by Lipper for various trailing periods ended December 31, 2008. The Board noted that the Fund’s performance was above the median for its peer universe for the past 1- and 3- year periods. On the basis of the Board’s assessment of the nature, extent and quality of advisory services to be provided or procured by TAM and the Sub-Adviser, the Board concluded that TAM and the Sub-Adviser are capable of generating a level of investment performance that is appropriate in light of the Fund’s investment objectives, policies and strategies and competitive with other investment companies.

The cost of advisory services provided and the level of profitability. The Board reviewed profitability information of TAM’s cost of procuring fund management services, as well as the costs of provision of administration, fund accounting and other services, to the Fund and to Transamerica Investors, Inc. as a whole by TAM and its affiliates. The Board reviewed the management and sub-advisory fees for the Fund. The Directors noted that the Fund’s contractual management fee and total expenses were below the medians for its expense group and universe. Based on their review, the Directors determined that the management and sub-advisory fees of the Fund generally are appropriate in light of the services expected to be provided or procured, and the anticipated profitability of the relationship between the Fund, TAM and its affiliates, and the Sub-Adviser. In making these observations and determinations, the Board reviewed comparative information provided by Lipper.
