Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

At a meeting held on August 20, 2013, the Board of Directors of Transamerica Advisors Life Insurance Company of New York (“Company”) voted, at the recommendation of the Company’s Audit Committee, to renew Ernst & Young LLP’s (“E&Y”) services for the company’s 2013 engagement, and that the client-auditor relationship will cease upon completion of the 2013 annual audit for Transamerica Advisors Life Insurance Company of New York’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

The reports of E&Y on the Company’s financial statements for the 2013 and 2012 engagements did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

In connection with the audits of the Company’s financial statements for each of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and in the subsequent interim period through the date of this filing, there were no disagreements with E&Y on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope and procedures which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of E&Y would have caused E&Y to make reference to the matter in their report.

There were no “reportable events” as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

A letter from E&Y to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission is attached as Exhibit 16.01.

The client–auditor relationship between the Company and E&Y ceased on March 28, 2014. See Exhibit 99.01

The Board of Directors also appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent auditor for the Annual Accounts 2014 through 2016.
