TRANSAMERICA OCCIDENTAL'S SEPARATE ACCOUNT FUND B
SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
Dear Investor:
The first half of the new millennium proved to be very volatile. Stocks moved up
sharply during the first quarter but corrected sharply in the second quarter.
High valuations in the Internet and technology sectors along with excessive
margin debt contributed to the market's correction. Concerns over rising oil
prices and inflation along with the Federal Reserve's resolve to increase
short-term interest rates also added to the market's worries.
Our long-held belief of investing in high-quality, premier companies continued
to pay off as the market's rally in June focused on high-quality growth
companies with proven business models and demonstrable profitability.
Low-quality companies with unproven business models did not come back in the
June rally.
New positions in the portfolio in the first half of the year included Northern
Trust and 3Com. We believe Northern Trust is extraordinarily well positioned to
serve the needs of high net worth individuals, the fastest growing segment of
financial services. We also added 3Com given its first half announcement to spin
out to the public its most valuable asset, Palm, Inc. The market for personal
digital assistants (PDA's) is dominated by Palm, and we feel the PDA market is
on the verge of explosive growth.
We think the market's correction in the second quarter eliminated some of the
unhealthy excesses that were not sustainable. We also believe that the Federal
Reserve is near the end of its tightening cycle and that oil prices will
stabilize in the second half of the year. This should allow the market to focus
on the excellent prospects for corporate earnings growth, and we think the stock
market will do well in the second half of the year. We also believe the market
will refocus on proven companies with excellent growth prospects and that our
portfolio is well positioned.
Thank you for your continued investment in the Separate Account Fund B.

TRANSAMERICA OCCIDENTAL'S SEPARATE ACCOUNT FUND B
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A -- ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an
open-end diversified investment company. The Fund's investment objective is
long-term capital growth.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as
additional information becomes known which could impact the amounts reported and
disclosed herein.
Investment in Securities
Common stocks are valued at the last closing price for securities traded on
a national stock exchange and the bid price for unlisted securities. The cost of
securities purchased (excluding short-term investments) and proceeds from sales
aggregated $38,501,647 and $41,305,758, respectively, in 2000. The Fund had
gross unrealized gains of $71,924,268 and gross unrealized losses of $3,996,389
at June 30, 2000 related to these investments. Realized gains and losses on
investments are determined using the average cost method.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of money market funds invested daily from excess
cash balances on deposit.
Federal Income Taxes
Operations of the Fund will form a part of, and be taxed with, those of
Transamerica Occidental Life, which is taxed as a "life insurance company" under
the Internal Revenue Code. Transamerica Occidental Life will not charge the Fund
for income taxes applicable to its investment in the Fund. Under current law,
income from assets maintained in the Fund for the exclusive benefit of
Participants is in general not subject to federal income tax.
Expenses
The value of the Fund has been reduced by charges on each valuation date
for investment management services on the basis of an annual rate of 0.3% and
mortality and expense risks on the basis of an annual rate of 1.0%. These
charges are paid to Transamerica Occidental Life.
Other
The Fund follows industry practice and records security transactions on the
trade date. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, and interest
income is recognized on an accrual basis.

all but $100,000 of its proportionate share of the Fund, in whole or in part, at
any time.
NOTE C -- RESERVES FOR RETIRED ANNUITANTS
