WHEREAS, TLIC proposes to have the Contracts sold and distributed through TCI, and TCI is willing to sell and distribute such Contracts under the terms stated herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1. Appointment as Distributor/Principal Underwriter. TLIC grants to TCI the exclusive right to be, and TCI agrees to serve as, distributor and principal underwriter of the Contracts during the term of this Agreement. TCI agrees to use its best efforts to solicit applications for the Contracts and otherwise perform all duties and functions which are necessary and proper for the distribution of the Contracts.

2. Prospectus. TCI agrees to offer the Contracts for sale in accordance with the registration statements and prospectus therefor then in effect. TCI is not authorized to give any information or to make any representations concerning the Contracts other than those contained in the current prospectus therefor filed with the SEC or in such sales literature as may be authorized by TLIC.

3. Considerations. All premiums, purchase payments or other moneys payable under the Contracts shall be remitted promptly in full together with such application, forms and any other required documentation to TLIC or its designated servicing agent and shall become the exclusive property of TLIC. Checks or money orders in payment under the Contracts shall be drawn to the order of “Transamerica Life Insurance Company” and funds may be remitted by wire if prior written approval is obtained from TLIC.

4. Copies of Information. On behalf of the Accounts, TLIC shall furnish TCI with copies of all prospectuses, financial statements and other documents which TCI reasonably requests for use in connection with the distribution of the Contracts.

5. Representations. TCI represents that it is (a) duly registered as a broker-dealer under the 1934 Act, (b) a member in good standing of the FINRA and (c) to the extent necessary to offer the Contracts, duly registered or otherwise qualified under the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction. TCI shall be responsible for carrying out its sales and underwriting obligations hereunder in continued compliance with the FINRA Rules and federal and state securities and insurance laws and regulations. Further, TCI represents and warrants that it will adopt, abide by and enforce the principles set forth in the Professional Code of Conduct.

6. Other Broker-Dealer Agreements. TCI is hereby authorized to enter into written sales agreements with other independent broker-dealers for the sale of the Contracts. All such sales agreements entered into by TCI shall provide that each independent
broker-dealer will assume full responsibility for continued compliance by itself and by its associated persons with the FINRA Rules and applicable federal and state securities and insurance laws, shall provide that each independent broker-dealer will adopt, abide by and enforce the principles set forth in the Professional Code of Conduct, and shall be in such form and contain such other provisions as TLIC may from time to time require. All associated persons of such independent broker-dealers soliciting applications for the Contracts shall be duly and appropriately registered by the

FINRA and licensed and appointed by TLIC for the sale of Contracts under the insurance laws of the applicable states or jurisdictions in which such Contracts may be lawfully sold. All applications for Contracts solicited by such broker-dealers through their representatives, together with any other required documentation and premiums, purchase payments and other moneys, shall be handled as set forth in paragraph 3 above.

7. Insurance Licensing and Appointments. TLIC shall apply for the proper insurance licenses and appointments in appropriate states or jurisdictions for the designated persons associated with TCI or with other independent broker-dealers that have entered into sales agreements with TCI for the sale of Contracts, provided that TLIC reserves the right to refuse to appoint any proposed registered representative as an agent or broker, and to terminate an agent or broker once appointed.

8. Recordkeeping. TLIC and TCI shall cause to be maintained and preserved for the periods prescribed such accounts, books, and other documents as are required of them by the 1940 Act, and 1934 Act, and any other applicable laws and regulations. The books, accounts and records of TLIC, of the Accounts, and of TCI as to all transactions hereunder shall be maintained so as to disclose clearly and accurately the nature and details of the transactions. TLIC (or such other entity engaged by TLIC for this purpose), on behalf of and as agent for TCI, shall maintain TCI’s books and records pertaining to the sale of Contracts to the extent as mutually agreed upon from time to time by TLIC and TCI; provided that such books and records shall be the property of TCI, and shall at all times be subject to such reasonable periodic, special or other audit or examination by TCI, the SEC, FINRA, any state

insurance commissioner and/or all other regulatory bodies having jurisdiction. TLIC shall be responsible for sending on behalf of and as agent for TCI all required confirmations on customer transactions in compliance with applicable regulations, as modified by an exemption or other relief obtained by TLIC. TCI shall cause TLIC to be furnished with such reports as TLIC may reasonably request for the purpose of meeting its reporting and recordkeeping requirements under the insurance laws of the State of Iowa and any other applicable states or jurisdictions. TLIC agrees that its records relating to the sale of Contracts shall be subject to such reasonable periodic, special or other audit or examination by TCI, the SEC, FINRA, and any state insurance commissioner and/or all other regulatory bodies having jurisdiction.

9. Commissions. TLIC shall have the responsibility for paying on behalf of TCI any compensation to other independent
broker-dealers and their associated persons due under the terms of any sales agreements entered into pursuant to paragraph 6 above, between TCI and such broker-dealers as agreed to by TLIC. TCI shall have the responsibility for paying all commissions or other fees to associated persons of TCI which are due for the sale of the Contracts in the amounts and on such terms and conditions TCI determines.
