Fees and Compensation
Fund Complex
TAM serves as investment manager for each series of TF and TST and provides continuous and regular investment management
services to these series. TF and TST, on behalf of their respective series, have entered into an investment management
agreement with TAM pursuant to which investment advisory and administrative services fees are combined under the
investment management agreement providing for a single management fee.
TAM serves as investment adviser and provides continuous and regular investment management services to the ETF Series. The
2023 Trust, on behalf of the ETF Series, has entered into an investment advisory agreement with TAM.
As discussed in “Advisory Services” above, when acting as a manager of managers, TAM provides investment management or
advisory services that include, without limitation, selection, proactive oversight and monitoring of the subadvisers, daily
monitoring of the subadvisers’ buying and selling of securities for the Funds and ETF Series and regular review and evaluation
of subadviser performance and adherence to investment style and process. TAM’s management services to the series of TF and
TST include, among other things, the provision of supervisory, compliance, and administrative services to those series.
As noted below under the heading “Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations,” two current subadvisers to certain Funds
and ETF Series (Aegon USA Investment Management, LLC and Aegon Asset Management UK PLC) are affiliated with TAM
because both subadvisers and TAM are under the common control of Aegon Ltd. These affiliated subadvisers are also part of
and report to AAM.
Management or advisory fees are calculated separately for each Fund and ETF Series as a specified annual percentage of the
Fund’s or ETF Series’ average daily net assets and are payable to TAM monthly in arrears. Fees are deducted from Fund or ETF
Series assets. Management and advisory fees for the Funds and ETF Series are determined based on investment style, asset class,
and other factors. TAM may contractually or voluntarily agree to waive all or a portion of its fees. TAM also may waive and/or
reimburse costs and operating expenses of a Fund or ETF Series so that the Fund’s or ETF Series’ total operating expenses do
not exceed certain set limitations. Any such contractual waivers or reimbursements are disclosed in the relevant Fund’s or ETF
Series’ prospectus, as applicable. For most Funds and the ETF Series, TAM currently acts as a “manager of managers” and hires
investment subadvisers to furnish investment advice and recommendations and has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with
each Fund’s and ETF Series’ subadviser(s). With respect to those Funds or ETF Series that are sub-advised, TAM retains a
portion of its management fee paid by a Fund or ETF Series as compensation for its services as a manager of managers and the
remainder of the management fee is paid by TAM to the relevant Fund’s or ETF Series’ subadviser(s).
Below are the effective management fees or fee ranges, as applicable, by asset class category that TAM receives from the
respective series of TF and TST and the ETF Series. Most series of TF and TST have management fee schedules with breakpoints
(tiered schedules with lower management fee percentages at higher asset levels). The full management fee schedule for each
Fund is included in the Fund’s statement(s) of additional information. Effective advisory fees for the ETF Series are also set forth
below, with the full advisory fee schedules for the ETF Series’ included in the statement of additional information.

Great Gray Funds
As discussed in “Advisory Business” above, TAM provides advisory services to certain series of the Great Gray Funds. In this
role, Great Gray pays TAM a fee, as indicated below, for the investment advisory services that are provided by TAM for each
GG CIT. Typically, this advisory fee is accrued daily and paid quarterly in arrears and charged against the net asset value of each
class of the respective GG CIT. TAM, not Great Gray or a GG CIT, is responsible for paying the GG CIT Subadviser(s) the
associated sub-advisory fee, and those fees are TAM’s expense.

ETF Series in the Fund Complex. TAM provides continuous and regular investment management services to the Fund and the
ETF Series. TAM supervises each Fund’s investments, conducts each Fund’s investment program and provides supervisory,

When acting as a manager of managers for the applicable Funds and the ETF Series, TAM provides investment management
services that include, without limitation, the design and development of each Fund and ETF Series and its investment strategy

services. TAM, not the Funds or ETF Series, is responsible for paying the subadvisers, and the sub-advisory fees are TAM’s
expense.
Please see “Advisory Services – Fund Complex” above for additional services performed by TAM as part of its investment
management services to the Funds.
Transamerica Asset Allocation Horizon Funds
TAM is currently responsible for the day-to-day management of the Transamerica Asset Allocation Horizon Funds (the “Horizon
Funds”) which are each a series of TF. The Horizon Funds each invest in a combination of underlying series of TF (for purposes
of this sub-section, the “TF Underlying Funds”). TAM selects the combination and amount of TF Underlying Funds to invest
in based on the investment goal of each Horizon Fund.
The Horizon Funds and the TF Underlying Funds in which they invest are diversified.
Each TF Underlying Fund has its own investment objective and principal investment strategies. The subadviser for each TF
Underlying Fund decides which securities to purchase and sell for that TF Underlying Fund.
Each Horizon Fund may also invest its assets in cash, cash equivalent securities or short-term debt securities, repurchase
agreements and money market securities. Under adverse or unstable market, economic or political conditions, a Horizon Fund
may take temporary defensive positions in cash and short-term debt securities without limit.
The following charts show approximately how much of the assets of each Horizon Fund are invested in underlying Transamerica
bond and stock funds as well as the underlying Transamerica government money market fund. These allocations reflect TAM’s
present strategy for asset allocation during normal market conditions, and may be changed at any time without notice to
