Re: Separate Account VA-6 of Transamerica Life Insurance and Annuity Company
Form N-4, File Nos. 333-9745 & 811-07753
Dear Ms. Novack:
Per our telephone conversations, please consider this letter an application to
the Commission, pursuant to Rule 477, requesting withdrawal of Post-Effective
Amendment No. 5 of Registration No. 333-9745 to the Form N-4 with regard to
Separate Account VA-6 of Transamerica Life Insurance and Annuity Company, filed
by EDGAR, May 22, 1998, under Rule 485(a) and assigned accession number
0001019664-98-000009. We request this withdrawal because the variable annuity
described in the prospectus in this filing will be supported by another separate
account and has been filed on Form N-4 as an initial filing.
Very truly yours,
Regina M. Fink
Counsel
