NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises and covenants hereinafter set forth, the Company, the Trust, and the Advisor and the Distributor agree as follows:

ARTICLE I. Sale of Trust Shares

1.1. The Trust and the Distributor agree to make shares of the Funds available for purchase to the Accounts of the Company for investment of purchase payments of the Contracts allocated to the designated Accounts as provided in the Funds’ then current registration statement at the net asset value next computed after receipt and acceptance by the Trust or its designee of the order for the shares of the Funds. For purposes of this Section 1.1, the Company shall be the designee of the Trust for receipt of such orders from the designated Account and receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by the applicable Fund; provided that the Company receives the order by the Close of Trading in good order (“Good Order”) as such term may be defined by the Company, and the Fund or its designee receives notice from the Company by facsimile (or by such other means as the Fund or its designee and the Company may mutually agree) of such order by 9:30 Eastern time on the next following Business Day. “Business Day” shall mean any day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on which the Fund calculates its net asset value pursuant to the rules of the SEC. “Close of Trading” shall mean the close of regular trading for a given Fund as set forth in its then-current prospectus each Business Day. Advisor agrees to provide the Company with prompt written notice of any prospectus changes which affect the determination of “Close of Trading.” The Company shall have no authority to act on behalf of the Trust or to incur any cost or liability on its behalf, except as indicated in this paragraph or otherwise explicitly provided for in this Agreement.

1.2. The Trust agrees to make its shares available for purchase at the applicable net asset value per share by the Company and its Accounts on each Business Day. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”) may refuse to sell shares of any Fund to any person, or suspend or terminate the offering of shares of any Fund if such action is required by law or by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction or is, in the sole discretion of the Board acting in good faith and in light of their fiduciary duties under federal and any applicable state laws, necessary in the best interests of the shareholders of such Fund.

1.3. The Trust and the Distributor agree that shares of the Funds will be sold only to the Company and its Accounts or to other life insurance companies that offer variable annuity and/or variable life insurance contracts to the public and which have entered into an agreement with the Trust, and to other persons not inconsistent with each Fund being adequately diversified pursuant to Section 817(h) of the Code, and the regulations thereunder. No shares of any Fund will be sold to the general public to the extent inconsistent with such Fund being adequately diversified pursuant to Section 817(b) of the Code, and the regulations thereunder.

1.4. Upon receipt of a request for redemption in proper form from the Company, the Trust agrees to redeem directly any full or fractional shares of the Fund held by the Company, ordinarily executing such requests on each Business Day at the net asset value next computed after receipt and acceptance by the Trust or its designee of the request for redemption except that the Trust reserves the right to suspend the right of redemption, consistent with Section 22(e) of the 1940 Act and any rules thereunder. Such redemption shall be paid consistent with applicable rules of the SEC and procedures and policies of the Trust as described in the current registration statement. For

purposes of this Section 1.4, the Company shall be the designee of the Trust for the limited purpose of receiving and accepting purchase and redemption orders from each Account and receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by the Trust; provided that the Trust receives notice of such request for redemption in accordance with the requirements set forth in Schedule B. The Company agrees to submit such orders electronically through secured trading systems as described on Schedule B to this Agreement or, if it is unable to submit orders electronically, the Company shall submit such orders through manual transmissions using the procedures described in Schedule B to this Agreement.

1.5. The Company agrees that purchases and redemptions of Fund shares offered by the then current prospectus of the Trust shall be made in accordance with the provisions of such prospectus.

1.6. Unless otherwise specified in Schedule B, the Company shall pay for Trust shares on the next Business Day after an order to purchase Trust shares is made in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.1 hereof. Payment shall be in federal funds transmitted by wire. For purpose of Section 2.10 and 2.11, upon receipt by the Trust of the federal funds so wired, such funds shall cease to be the responsibility of the Company and shall become the responsibility of the Trust.

1.7. Issuance and transfer of Fund shares will be by book entry only. Stock certificates will not be issued to the Company or any Account. Shares ordered from the Funds will be recorded in an appropriate title for each Account or the appropriate subaccount of each Account. The Trust shall furnish to the Company the CUSIP number assigned to each Fund identified in Schedule A attached, as may be amended from time to time.

1.8. Unless otherwise specified in Schedule B, the Trust shall furnish same day notice (by wire or telephone, followed by written confirmation) to the Company of any income, dividends or capital gain distributions payable on the Fund’s shares. The Company hereby elects to receive all such income dividends and capital gain distributions as are payable on the Fund shares in additional shares of that Fund. The Company reserves the right to revoke this election in writing and to receive all such income dividends and capital gain distributions in cash. The Trust or its agent shall notify the Company of the number of shares so issued as payment of such dividends and distributions.

1.9 The Trust shall make the net asset value per share for each Fund available to the Company on each Business Day as soon as reasonably practical after the net asset value per share is calculated and shall use its best efforts to make such net asset value per share available by 6:30 p.m. Eastern Time.

1.10. The Parties hereto acknowledge that the arrangement contemplated by this Agreement is not exclusive; the Trust’s shares may be sold to other insurance companies (subject to Section 1.3 and Article VI hereof) and the cash value of the Contracts may be invested in other investment companies.

3.3. At its expense, the Trust shall provide the Company with copies of the Trust’s proxy statements, reports to shareholders, and other required shareholder communications (except for prospectuses and Statements of Additional Information, which are covered in Section 3.1) to shareholders in such quantity as the Company shall reasonably require for distributing to Contract owners. Such delivery may be accomplished through electronic means subject to the standards prescribed by the SEC.

3.4. If and to the extent required by law the Company shall:

(i)

solicit voting instructions from Contract owners;

(ii)

vote the Trust shares in accordance with instructions received from Contract owners; and

(iii)

vote Trust shares for which no instructions have been received in a particular separate account in the same proportion as Trust shares of such Fund for which instructions have been received in that separate account, so long as and to the extent that the SEC continues to interpret the 1940 Act to require pass-through voting privileges for variable contract owners. The Company reserves the right to vote Trust shares held in any segregated asset account in its own right, to the extent permitted by law.

3.5. The Company shall be responsible for assuring that each of its separate accounts participating in the Trust calculates voting privileges as required by the Shared Exemptive Order and consistent with any reasonable standards the Trust may adopt.

3.6. The Trust will comply with all provisions of the 1940 Act requiring voting by shareholders, and in particular the Trust will either provide for annual meetings or comply with Section 16(c) of the 1940 Act (although the Trust is not one of the trusts described in Section 16(c) of that Act) as well as with Sections 16(a) and, if and when applicable, 16(b). Further, the Trust will act in accordance with the SEC’s interpretation of the requirements of Section 16(a) with respect to periodic elections of trustees and with whatever rules the Commission may promulgate with respect thereto.

3.7. If and during the time as the Trust engages in activities that require a Shared Exemptive Order, the Trust shall disclose in its prospectus or Statement of Additional Information that (1) the Funds are intended to be funding vehicles for variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts offered by various insurance companies, (2) material irreconcilable conflicts possibly may arise, and (3) the Board will monitor events in order to identify the existence of any material irreconcilable conflicts and to determine what action, if any, should be taken in response to any such conflict. The Trust hereby notifies the Company that prospectus or Statement of Additional Information disclosure may be appropriate regarding potential risks of offering shares of the Funds to separate accounts funding Contracts of unaffiliated life insurance companies.

SCHEDULE B

to the

AMENDED AND RESTATED PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT

among

MTB GROUP OF FUNDS,

ALPS DISTRIBUTORS, INC.,

MTB INVESTMENT ADVISORS, INC.,

TRANSAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

and

TRANSAMERICA FINANCIAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company shall be appointed to, and agrees to act, as a limited agent of the Trust for the sole purpose of receiving instructions from authorized parties as defined by the Contracts for the purchase and redemption of Fund shares prior to the “Close of Trading,” which is defined as the close of regular trading for a given Fund as set forth in its then-current prospectus each Business Day. A “Business Day” is defined in Article 1.1 of the Agreement. Except as particularly stated in this paragraph, the Company shall have no authority to act on behalf of the Trust or to incur any cost or liability on its behalf.

Trust will use its best efforts to provide to the Company or its designated agent closing net asset value, change in net asset value, dividend or daily accrual rate information and capital gain information by 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time each Business Day. The Company or its agent shall use this data to calculate unit values. Unit values shall be used to process the same Business Day’s contract transactions. When the Company is able to utilize the National Securities Clearing Corporation (“NSCC”) Defined Contribution Clearing and Settlement (“DCC&S”) Fund/SERV system, orders to purchase and redeem shares of the Funds received by the Company prior to the Close of Trading on any Business Day (“Day 1”) will be transmitted via the NSCC’s Fund/SERV system for receipt by the Funds or the Transfer Agent for the Funds by no later than 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the next Business Day (“Day 2”) (such purchases and redemptions are referred to as “Day 1 Trades”). Until the Company achieves Fund/SERV utility, or if for any other reason any Day 1 Trades are not received by the Transfer Agent via the NSCC’s Fund/SERV system prior to 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Day 2, such Day 1 Company shall provide such Day 1 Trades to the Transfer Agent via fax prior to 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Day 2. Such purchase and redemption orders shall be transmitted without modification (except for netting or aggregating such orders). Trust will not accept any order made on a conditional basis or subject to any delay or contingency. Company shall only place purchase orders for shares of Funds on behalf of its customers whose addresses recorded on Company’ books are in a state or other jurisdiction in which the Funds are registered or qualified for sale, or are exempt from registration or qualification as confirmed in writing by Fund.

When operating outside of the DCC&S Fund/SERV system, each party shall, as soon as practicable after transmittal of an instruction or confirmation, verify the other party’s receipt of such instruction or confirmation, and in the absence of such verification such a party to whom an instruction or confirmation is sent shall not be liable for any failure to act in accordance with such instruction or confirmation, and the sending party may not claim that such an instruction or confirmation was received by the other. Each party shall notify the other of any errors, omissions or interruptions in, or delay or unavailability as promptly as possible.

For those purchase orders not transmitted via the DCC&S Fund/SERV system, the Company shall complete payment to the Trust or its designated agent in federal funds no later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the Business Day following the day on which the instructions are treated as having been received by the Trust pursuant to this Agreement.

For those redemption orders not transmitted via the DCC&S Fund/SERV system, the Trust or its designated agent shall initiate payment in federal funds no later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the Business Day following the day on which the instructions are treated as having been received by the Trust pursuant to this Agreement.

With respect to purchase and redemption orders received by the Trust through the DCC&S Fund/SERV system on any Business Day for any Fund, within the time limits set forth in this Agreement, settlement shall occur consistent with the requirements of DCC&S Fund/SERV system.

At such time as the Trust and the Company are able to transmit information via the DCC&S Fund/SERV system: the Trust or its designated agent shall send to the Company, via the DCC&S Fund/SERV system, verification of net purchase or redemption orders or notification of the rejection of such orders (“Confirmations”) on each Business Day for which the Company has transmitted such orders. Such confirmations shall include the total number of shares of each Fund held by the Company following such net purchase or redemption. The Trust, or its designated agent, shall submit in a timely manner, such confirmations to the DCC&S Fund/SERV system in order for the Company to receive such confirmations no later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time the next Business Day. The Trust or its designated agent will transmit to the Company via DCC&S NETWORKING system those Networking activity files reflecting account activity. In addition, within five (5) Business Days after the end of each month, the Trust or its affiliate will send the Company a statement of account which shall confirm all transactions made during that particular month in the account.

Pricing Errors

If the Trust or its agent provides materially incorrect share net asset value information through no fault of the Company, the Accounts shall be entitled to an adjustment with respect to the Fund shares purchased or redeemed to reflect the correct net asset value per share.

The determination of the materiality of any net asset value pricing error and its correction shall be based on the SEC’s recommended guidelines regarding these errors.

In the event a Fund is required (under the then prevailing pricing error guidelines of the Funds) to recalculate purchases and redemptions on any business day of Shares held in an Account due to an error in calculating the net asset value of such class of Shares (a “Pricing Error”):

(i) The Trust or its transfer agent shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Pricing Error, which written notice shall identify the Fund shares, the business day(s) on which the Pricing Error(s) occurred and the corrected net asset value of the Fund shares on each business day.

(ii) Upon such notification, the Company shall promptly determine, for all sub-accounts which purchased or redeemed Fund shares on each business day on which a Pricing Error occurred, the correct number of Fund shares purchased or redeemed using the corrected price and the amount of transaction proceeds actually paid or received. Following such determination, the Company shall adjust the number of Fund shares held in each sub-account to the extent necessary to reflect the correct number of Fund shares purchased or redeemed for the sub-account. Following such determination, the Company shall notify the Trust or its transfer agent of the net changes in transactions for the relevant Account and the Trust or its transfer agent shall adjust the Account accordingly.

(iii) If, after taking into account the adjustments required by paragraph (ii), the Company determines that some sub-account customers were still entitled to additional redemption proceeds (a “Redemption Shortfall”), it shall notify the Trust or its transfer agent of the aggregate amount of the Redemption Shortfalls and provide supporting documentation for such amount. Upon receipt of such documentation, the Trust or its transfer agent will cause the relevant Fund to remit to the Company additional redemption proceeds in the amount of such Redemption Shortfalls and the Company will apply such funds to payment of the Redemption Shortfalls.

(iv) If, after taking into account the adjustments required by paragraph (ii), the Company determines that a sub-account customer still received excess redemption proceeds (a “Redemption Overage”), the Company shall use its best efforts to collect the balance of such Redemption Overage from such sub-account customer. In no event, however, shall the Company be liable to the Trust or its transfer agent or any Fund for any Redemption Overage. Nothing in this Pricing Errors section shall be deemed to limit the right of the Trust, its Transfer Agent or any Fund, to recover any Redemption Overage directly or to be indemnified by any party for losses arising from a Pricing Error.

With respect to the material errors or omissions relating to net asset value pricing, this section shall control over other indemnification provisions in this Agreement.

Documents Provided by the Company

The Company agrees to provide Trust, upon written request, any reports indicating the number of shareholders that hold interests in the Funds and such other information (including books and records) that Trust may reasonably request. The Company agrees to provide Trust, upon written request, such other information (including books and records) as may be necessary or advisable to enable it to comply with any law, regulation or order.

Documents Provided by Trust

Within five (5) Business Days after the end of each calendar month, Trust, Distributor, or Advisor shall provide the Company, or its designee, a monthly statement of account, which shall confirm all transactions made during that particular month.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties has caused this Schedule B to be executed in its name and on its behalf by its duly authorized representative as of September 6, 2007.
