                            SUPPLEMENT TO PROSPECTUS
                    DATED                            , 1996
                                 CLASS I SHARES
 
     The Kemper Asian Growth Fund (the "Fund") currently offers four classes of
shares of a single investment portfolio to provide investors with different
purchasing options. These are Class A, Class B and Class C shares, which are
described in the prospectus, and Class I shares, which are described in the
prospectus as supplemented hereby.
 
     Class I shares are available for purchase exclusively by the following
investors: (a) tax-exempt retirement plans of Zurich Kemper Investments, Inc.
("ZKI") and its affiliates; and (b) the following investment advisory clients of
ZKI and its investment advisory affiliates (including Zurich Investment
Management, Inc.) that invest at least $1 million in the Fund: (1) unaffiliated
benefit plans, such as qualified retirement plans (other than individual
retirement accounts and self-directed retirement plans); (2) unaffiliated banks
and insurance companies purchasing for their own accounts; and (3) endowment
funds of unaffiliated non-profit organizations. Class I shares currently are
available for purchase only from Kemper Distributors, Inc., principal
underwriter for the Fund. Share certificates are not available for Class I
shares.
 
     The primary distinctions among the classes of the Fund's shares lie in
their initial and contingent deferred sales charge schedules and in their
ongoing expenses, including asset-based sales charges in the form of Rule 12b-1
distribution fees. Class I shares are offered at net asset value without an
initial sales charge and are not subject to a contingent deferred sales charge
or a Rule 12b-1 distribution fee. Also, there is no administrative services fee
charged to Class I shares. As a result of the relatively lower expenses for
Class I shares, the overall investment return will be higher for Class I shares
than for Class A, Class B and Class C shares.
 
     The following information supplements the indicated sections of the
prospectus.

</TABLE>
 
     The purpose of the preceding table is to assist investors in understanding
the various costs and expenses that an investor in Class I shares of the Fund
will bear directly or indirectly. See "Investment Manager and Underwriter" for
more information. It is anticipated that the Fund will commence operations on or
about             , 1996; thus "Other Expenses" shown above for Class I shares
are estimates for the current fiscal year. Zurich Kemper Investments, Inc.
("ZKI"), the Fund's investment manager, has agreed to a reduction of its
investment management fee by .25% until the earlier of one year from the date
when the Fund commences operations or the date when the Fund's net assets reach
$100 million. The effect of this management fee reduction is reflected in the
above table. Without such fee reduction, "Management Fees" would be .85% and
"Total Operating Expenses" would be 1.20%. The Example assumes a 5% annual rate
of return pursuant to requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
This hypothetical rate of return is not intended to be representative of past or
future performance of the Fund. THE EXAMPLE SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED TO BE A
REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE EXPENSES. ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR
LESSER THAN THOSE SHOWN.
 
SPECIAL FEATURES
 
     Shareholders of the Fund's Class I shares may exchange their shares for (i)
shares of Kemper Money Funds--Kemper Money Market Fund if the shareholders of
Class I shares have purchased shares because they are participants in tax-exempt
retirement plans of ZKI and its affiliates and (ii) Class I shares of any other
"Kemper Mutual Fund" listed under "Special Features--Class A Shares--Combined
Purchases" in the prospectus. Conversely, shareholders of Kemper Money
Funds--Kemper Money Market Fund who have purchased shares because they are
participants in tax-exempt retirement plans of ZKI and its affiliates may
exchange their shares for Class I shares of "Kemper Mutual Funds" to the extent
that they are available through their plan. Exchanges will be made at the
relative net asset values of the shares. Exchanges are subject to the
limitations set forth in the prospectus under "Special Features--Exchange
Privilege--General."

SUMMARY
 
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE. Kemper Asian Growth Fund (the "Fund") is an open-end,
diversified, management investment company. The Fund's investment objective is
to provide long-term capital growth. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by
investing in a diversified portfolio consisting primarily of equity securities
of Asian companies. No assurance can be given that the Fund's investment
objective will be achieved. Any current income generated from these securities
is incidental to the investment objective of the Fund. The Fund may also engage
in options, financial futures and foreign currency transactions and may lend its
portfolio securities. See "Investment Objective, Policies and Risk Factors."
 
RISK FACTORS. The Fund may invest without limit in securities of foreign
issuers. Foreign investments involve risk and opportunity considerations not
typically associated with investing in United States companies. The U.S. Dollar
value of a foreign security tends to decrease when the value of the U.S. Dollar
rises against the foreign currency in which the security is denominated and
tends to increase when the value of the U.S. Dollar falls against such currency.
Thus, the U.S. Dollar value of foreign securities in the Fund's portfolio, and
the Fund's net asset value, may change in response to changes in currency
exchange rates even though the value of the foreign securities in local currency
terms may not have changed. Concentration of the Fund's investments in Asian
companies may present greater risk than investment in a more diversified
portfolio of foreign securities. Since the Fund invests its assets principally
in countries considered by the Fund's investment manager to be developing or
"emerging" markets, this will involve exposure to economic structures that are
generally less diverse and mature than in the United States, and to political
systems that may be less stable. There are special risks associated with
options, financial futures, foreign currency and other derivative transactions
and there is no assurance that use of those investment techniques will be
successful. The Fund's returns and net asset value will fluctuate. See
"Investment Objective, Policies and Risk Factors."
 
PURCHASES AND REDEMPTIONS. The Fund provides investors with the option of
purchasing shares in the following ways:
 
<TABLE>
<S>                              <C>
Class A Shares................   Offered at net asset value plus a maximum sales charge of 5.75%
                                 of the offering price. Reduced sales charges apply to purchases
                                 of $50,000 or more. Class A shares purchased at net asset value
                                 under the Large Order NAV Purchase Privilege may be subject to a
                                 1% contingent deferred sales charge if redeemed within one year
                                 of purchase and a .50% contingent deferred sales charge if
                                 redeemed during the second year of purchase.
Class B Shares................   Offered at net asset value, subject to a Rule 12b-1 distribution
                                 fee and a contingent deferred sales charge that declines from 4%
                                 to zero on certain redemptions made within six years of purchase.
                                 Class B shares automatically convert into Class A shares (which
                                 have lower ongoing expenses) six years after purchase.
Class C Shares................   Offered at net asset value without an initial sales charge, but
                                 subject to a Rule 12b-1 distribution fee and a 1% contingent
                                 deferred sales charge on redemptions made within one year of
                                 purchase. Class C shares do not convert into another class.
</TABLE>
 
Each class of shares represents interests in the same portfolio of investments
of the Fund. The minimum initial investment is $1,000 and investments thereafter
must be at least $100. Shares are redeemable at net asset value, which may be
more or less than original cost, subject, in the case of Class A shares
purchased under the Large Order NAV Purchase Privilege and in the case of Class
B shares and Class C shares, to any applicable contingent deferred sales charge.
See "Purchase of Shares" and "Redemption or Repurchase of Shares."

INVESTMENT MANAGER AND UNDERWRITER. Zurich Kemper Investments, Inc. ("ZKI") is
the Fund's investment manager. ZKI is paid an investment management fee by the
Fund at an annual rate ranging from .85% to .72% of its average daily net
assets. Kemper Distributors, Inc. ("KDI"), a wholly owned subsidiary of ZKI, is
principal underwriter and administrator for the Fund. For Class B and Class C
shares, KDI receives a Rule 12b-1 distribution fee of .75% of average daily net
assets. KDI also receives the amount of any contingent deferred sales charges
paid on the redemption of shares. The expenses of the Fund, and of other
investment companies investing in foreign securities, can be expected to be
higher than for investment companies investing primarily in domestic securities
since the costs of operation are higher, including custody and transaction costs
for foreign securities and investment management fees. Administrative services
are provided to shareholders under an administrative services agreement with
KDI. The Fund pays an administrative services fee at an annual rate of up to
 .25% of average daily net assets of each class of the Fund, which KDI pays to
financial services firms. See "Investment Manager and Underwriter."
 
DIVIDENDS. The Fund normally distributes annual dividends of net investment
income and any net realized short-term and long-term capital gains. Income and
capital gain dividends of the Fund are automatically reinvested in additional
shares of the Fund, without a sales charge, unless the investor makes a
different election. See "Dividends and Taxes."

The purpose of the preceding table is to assist investors in understanding the
various costs and expenses that an investor in the Fund will bear directly or
indirectly. See "Investment Manager and Underwriter" for more information. It is
anticipated that the Fund will commence operations on or about           , 1996;
thus "Other Expenses" shown above are estimates for the current fiscal year.
ZKI, the Fund's investment manager, has agreed to a reduction of its investment
management fee by .25% until the earlier of one year from the date when the Fund
commences operations or the date when the Fund's net assets reach $100 million.
The effect of this management fee reduction is reflected in the above table.
Without such fee reduction, "Management Fees" would be .85% and "Total Operating
Expenses" for Class A, B and C shares would be 1.77%, 2.67% and 2.64%,
respectively. The Example assumes a 5% annual rate of return pursuant to
requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. This hypothetical rate
of return is not intended to be representative of past or future performance of
the Fund. THE EXAMPLE SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED TO BE A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR
FUTURE EXPENSES. ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESSER THAN THOSE SHOWN.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, POLICIES AND RISK FACTORS
 
The following information sets forth the Fund's investment objective, policies
and risk factors. The Fund's returns and net asset value will fluctuate and
there is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its objective.
 
The objective of the Fund is long-term capital growth. The Fund seeks to achieve
its objective by investing in a diversified portfolio consisting primarily of
equity securities of Asian companies ("Asian Equity Securities"). Asian Equity
Securities include common stocks, preferred stocks, securities convertible into
or exchangeable for common or preferred stocks, equity investments in
partnerships, joint ventures and other forms of non-corporate investment and
warrants, options and rights exercisable for equity securities that are issued
by Asian companies as defined below.
 
The Fund considers an issuer of securities to be an Asian company if: (i) it is
organized under the laws of an Asian country and has a principal office in an
Asian country; (ii) it derives 50% or more of its total revenues from business
in Asia; or (iii) its equity securities are traded principally on a stock
exchange in Asia. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 85%
of its total assets in Asian Equity Securities and will invest at least 65% of
its total assets in Asian Equity Securities of issuers meeting at least one of
the first two criteria described in the preceding sentence. For purposes of the
foregoing policies, the Fund also considers Asian Equity Securities to include:
(i) shares of closed-end management investment companies, the assets of which
are invested primarily in Asian Equity Securities and (ii) depository receipts
(such as American Depository Receipts) where the underlying or deposited
securities are Asian Equity Securities.
 
Currently, the Fund invests principally in developing or "emerging" countries
(see "Special Risk Factors--Emerging Markets" below). Some examples of emerging
countries in which the Fund may invest without limit include China, Indonesia,
Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand and Taiwan. The Fund may, in the
discretion of the Fund's investment manager, invest without limit in developed
Asian countries such as Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore, however, the Fund will
only invest in Japan when economic conditions warrant and then only in limited
amounts.
 
In pursuing its objective, the Fund invests primarily in Asian Equity Securities
believed to have potential for capital growth. However, there is no requirement
that the Fund invest exclusively in Asian Equity Securities. Subject to limits
described above, the Fund may invest in any other type of security including,
but not limited to, equity securities of non-Asian companies, bonds, notes and
other debt securities of domestic or foreign companies (including Asian-currency
instruments and securities) and obligations of domestic or foreign governments
and their political subdivisions. Currently, the Fund does not intend to invest
more than 5% of its net assets in debt securities during the current fiscal year
(except for temporary defensive investments described below).
 
The Fund makes investments in various Asian countries. Under normal
circumstances, business activities in not less than four different Asian
countries will be represented in the Fund's portfolio. The Fund may, from time
to time, have 40% or more of its assets invested in any major Asian industrial
or developed country which, in the view of the Fund's investment manager, poses
no unique investment risk. Investments may include securities issued by
enterprises that have undergone or are currently undergoing privatization.
 
In determining the appropriate distribution of investments among various Asian
countries and geographic regions, the Fund's investment manager ordinarily
considers such factors as prospects for relative economic growth among Asian
countries; expected levels of inflation; relative price levels of the various
capital markets; government policies influencing business conditions; the
outlook for currency relationships and the range of individual investment
opportunities available to investors in Asian companies.
 
When the investment manager deems it appropriate to invest for temporary
defensive purposes, such as during periods of adverse market conditions, up to
100% of the Fund's assets may be invested in cash (including foreign currency)
or cash equivalent short-term obligations, either rated as high quality or
considered to be of comparable quality in the opinion of the investment manager,
including, but not limited to, certificates of deposit, commercial paper,
short-term notes, obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any
of its
 
                                        4
<PAGE>   10
 
agencies or instrumentalities, and repurchase agreements secured thereby. In
particular, for temporary defensive purposes the Fund's assets may be invested
without limitation in U.S. Dollar-denominated obligations to reduce the risks
inherent in non-U.S. Dollar-denominated assets.
 
Generally, the Fund will not trade in securities for short-term profits but,
when circumstances warrant, securities may be sold without regard to the length
of time held.
 
The Fund may purchase and write (sell) options and engage in financial futures
and foreign currency transactions and may lend its portfolio securities. See
"Additional Investment Information" below.
 
SPECIAL RISK FACTORS. There are risks inherent in investing in any security,
including shares of the Fund. The investment manager attempts to reduce risk
through fundamental research; however, there is no guarantee that such efforts
will be successful and the Fund's returns and net asset value will fluctuate
over time. There are special risks associated with the Fund's investments that
are discussed below.
 
Foreign securities involve currency risks. The U.S. Dollar value of a foreign
security tends to decrease when the value of the U.S. Dollar rises against the
foreign currency in which the security is denominated and tends to increase when
the value of the U.S. Dollar falls against such currency. Fluctuations in
exchange rates may also affect the earning power and asset value of the foreign
entity issuing the security. Dividend and interest payments may be repatriated
based on the exchange rate at the time of disbursement or payment, and
restrictions on capital flows may be imposed. Losses and other expenses may be
incurred in converting between various currencies in connection with purchases
and sales of foreign securities.
 
Foreign securities may be subject to foreign government taxes that reduce their
attractiveness. Other risks of investing in such securities include political or
economic instability in the country involved, the difficulty of predicting
international trade patterns and the possible imposition of exchange controls.
The prices of such securities may be more volatile than those of domestic
securities and the markets for such securities may be less liquid. In addition,
there may be less publicly available information about foreign issuers than
about domestic issuers. Many foreign issuers are not subject to uniform
accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards comparable to those
applicable to domestic issuers. There is generally less regulation of stock
exchanges, brokers, banks and listed companies abroad than in the United States.
With respect to certain foreign countries, there is a possibility of
expropriation or diplomatic developments that could affect investment in these
countries.
 
Because the Fund concentrates its investments in Asian companies, the
performance of the Fund is closely tied to economic and political conditions
within Asia. The current economies and political structures of many of the
countries the Fund may invest in do not compare favorably with the United States
or other mature economies in terms of wealth and stability. As a result, such
investments will be subject to more risk and erratic and abrupt price movements;
particularly in the emerging Asian countries. Concentration of the Fund's
investments in Asian companies presents greater risk than investment in a more
diversified portfolio of foreign securities.
 
EMERGING MARKETS. Since the Fund's investments in foreign securities may be in
developing or "emerging" markets, this will involve exposure to economic
structures that are generally less diverse and mature than in the United States,
and to political systems that may be less stable. A developing country or
emerging market country can be considered to be a country that is in the initial
stages of its industrialization cycle. Currently, emerging markets generally
include every country in the world other than the developed European countries,
the United States, Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and
Singapore. The characteristics of markets can change over time. Currently,
investing in many emerging markets may not be desirable or feasible because of
the lack of adequate custody arrangements for the Fund's assets, overly
burdensome repatriation and similar restrictions, the lack of organized and
liquid securities markets, unacceptable political risks or other reasons. As
opportunities to invest in securities in emerging markets develop, the Fund may
expand and further broaden the group of emerging markets in which it invests. In
the past, markets of developing countries have been more volatile than the
markets of developed countries; however, such markets often have provided higher
rates of
 
                                        5
<PAGE>   11
 
return to investors. The Fund's investment manager believes that these
characteristics can be expected to continue in the future.
 
Many of the risks described above relating to foreign securities generally will
be greater for emerging markets than for developed countries. For instance,
economies in individual developing markets may differ favorably or unfavorably
from the U.S. economy in such respects as growth of gross domestic product,
rates of inflation, currency depreciation, capital reinvestment, resource
self-sufficiency and balance of payments positions. Many emerging markets have
experienced substantial rates of inflation for many years. Inflation and rapid
fluctuations in inflation rates have had and may continue to have very negative
effects on the economies and securities markets of certain developing markets.
Economies in emerging markets generally are dependent heavily upon international
trade and, accordingly, have been and may continue to be affected adversely by
trade barriers, exchange controls, managed adjustments in relative currency
values and other protectionist measures imposed or negotiated by the countries
with which they trade. These economies also have been and may continue to be
affected adversely by economic conditions in the countries with which they
trade.
 
Also, the securities markets of developing countries are substantially smaller,
less developed, less liquid and more volatile than the securities markets of the
United States and other more developed countries. Disclosure, regulatory and
accounting standards in many respects are less stringent than in the United
States and other developed markets. There also may be a lower level of
monitoring and regulation of developing markets and the activities of investors
in such markets, and enforcement of existing regulations has been extremely
limited.
 
In addition, brokerage commissions, custodial services and other costs relating
to investment in foreign markets generally are more expensive than in the United
States; this is particularly true with respect to emerging markets. Such markets
have different settlement and clearance procedures. In certain markets there
have been times when settlements have been unable to keep pace with the volume
of securities transactions, making it difficult to conduct such transactions.
Such settlement problems may cause emerging market securities to be illiquid.
The inability of the Fund to make intended securities purchases due to
settlement problems could cause the Fund to miss attractive investment
opportunities. Inability to dispose of a portfolio security caused by settlement
problems could result either in losses to the Fund due to subsequent declines in
value of the portfolio security or, if the Fund has entered into a contract to
sell the security, could result in possible liability to the purchaser. Certain
emerging markets may lack clearing facilities equivalent to those in developed
countries. Accordingly, settlements can pose additional risks in such markets
and ultimately can expose the Fund to the risk of losses resulting from the
Fund's inability to recover from a counterparty.
 
The risk also exists that an emergency situation may arise in one or more
emerging markets as a result of which trading securities may cease or may be
substantially curtailed and prices for the Fund's portfolio securities in such
markets may not be readily available. The Fund's portfolio securities in the
affected markets will be valued at fair value determined in good faith by or
under the direction of the Board of Trustees.
 
Investment in certain emerging market securities is restricted or controlled to
varying degrees. These restrictions or controls may at times limit or preclude
foreign investment in certain emerging market securities and increase the costs
and expenses of the Fund. Emerging markets may require governmental approval for
the repatriation of investment income, capital or the proceeds of sales of
securities by foreign investors. In addition, if a deterioration occurs in an
emerging market's balance of payments, the market could impose temporary
restrictions on foreign capital remittances.
 
PRIVATIZED ENTERPRISES. Investments in foreign securities may include securities
issued by enterprises that have undergone or are currently undergoing
privatization. The governments of certain foreign countries have, to varying
degrees, embarked on privatization programs contemplating the sale of all or
part of their interests in state enterprises. The Fund's investments in the
securities of privatized enterprises include privately negotiated investments in
a government- or state-owned or controlled company or enterprise that has not
yet conducted an initial equity offering, investments in the initial offering of
equity securities of a state enterprise or former state enterprise and
investments in the securities of a state enterprise following its initial equity
offering.
 
                                        6
<PAGE>   12
 
In certain jurisdictions, the ability of foreign entities, such as the Fund, to
participate in privatizations may be limited by local law, or the price or terms
on which the Fund may be able to participate may be less advantageous than for
local investors. Moreover, there can be no assurance that governments that have
embarked on privatization programs will continue to divest their ownership of
state enterprises, that proposed privatizations will be successful or that
governments will not re-nationalize enterprises that have been privatized.
 
In the case of the enterprises in which the Fund may invest, large blocks of the
stock of those enterprises may be held by a small group of stockholders, even
after the initial equity offerings by those enterprises. The sale of some
portion or all of those blocks could have an adverse effect on the price of the
stock of any such enterprise.
 
Prior to making an initial equity offering, most state enterprises or former
state enterprises go through an internal reorganization or management. Such
reorganizations are made in an attempt to better enable these enterprises to
compete in the private sector. However, certain reorganizations could result in
a management team that does not function as well as the enterprise's prior
management and may have a negative effect on such enterprise. In addition, the
privatization of an enterprise by its government may occur over a number of
years, with the government continuing to hold a controlling position in the
enterprise even after the initial equity offering for the enterprise.
 
Prior to privatization, most of the state enterprises in which the Fund may
invest enjoy the protection of and receive preferential treatment from the
respective sovereigns that own or control them. After making an initial equity
offering these enterprises may no longer have such protection or receive such
preferential treatment and may become subject to market competition from which
they were previously protected. Some of these enterprises may not be able to
effectively operate in a competitive market and may suffer losses or experience
bankruptcy due to such competition.
 
DEPOSITORY RECEIPTS. The Fund may invest in securities of foreign issuers in the
form of American Depository Receipts ("ADRs"). For many foreign securities,
there are U.S. Dollar denominated ADRs, which are bought and sold in the United
States and are issued by domestic banks. ADRs represent the right to receive
securities of foreign issuers deposited in a domestic bank or a correspondent
bank. ADRs do not eliminate all the risk inherent in investing in the securities
of foreign issuers, such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates. However,
by investing in ADRs rather than directly in foreign issuers' stock, the Fund
avoids currency risks during the settlement period. In general, there is a
large, liquid market in the United States for most ADRs. The Fund may also
invest in securities of foreign issuers in the form of Global Depository
Receipts ("GDRs"), which are receipts evidencing an arrangement with a bank
similar to that for ADRs and are designed for use in other foreign securities
markets. GDRs are not necessarily denominated in the currency of the underlying
security.
 
ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT INFORMATION. It is anticipated that, under normal
circumstances, the portfolio turnover rate for the Fund will not exceed 100%.
Higher portfolio turnover involves correspondingly greater brokerage commissions
or other transaction costs. Higher portfolio turnover may result in the
realization of greater net short-term capital gains. In order to continue to
qualify as a regulated investment company for federal income tax purposes, less
than 30% of the annual gross income of the Fund must be derived from the sale or
other disposition of securities and certain other investments held by the Fund
for less than three months. See "Dividends and Taxes" in the Statement of
Additional Information.
 
The Fund may not borrow money except as a temporary measure for extraordinary or
emergency purposes, and then only in an amount up to one-third of the value of
its total assets, in order to meet redemption requests without immediately
selling any portfolio securities or other assets. If, for any reason, the
current value of the Fund's total assets falls below an amount equal to three
times the amount of its indebtedness from money borrowed, the Fund will, within
three days (not including Sundays and holidays), reduce its indebtedness to the
extent necessary. The Fund will not borrow for leverage purposes. The Fund may
pledge up to 15% of its total assets to secure any such borrowings.
 
                                        7
<PAGE>   13
 
The Fund may invest in repurchase agreements and engage in short sales
against-the-box. See "Investment Policies and Techniques--Repurchase Agreements
and--Short Sales Against-The-Box" in the Statement of Additional Information.
 
The Fund will not purchase illiquid securities, including repurchase agreements
maturing in more than seven days, if, as a result thereof, more than 15% of the
Fund's net assets valued at the time of the transaction, would be invested in
such securities. If the Fund holds a material percentage of its assets in
illiquid securities, there may be a question concerning the ability of the Fund
to make payment within seven days of the date its shares are tendered for
redemption. SEC guidelines provide that the usual limit on aggregate holdings by
an open-end investment company of illiquid assets is 15% of its net assets. See
"Investment Policies and Techniques--Over-the-Counter Options" in the Statement
of Additional Information for a description of the extent to which
over-the-counter traded options are in effect considered as illiquid for
purposes of the Fund's limit on illiquid securities. The Fund may invest in
securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of
1933. This rule permits otherwise restricted securities to be sold to certain
institutional buyers, such as the Fund. Such securities may be illiquid and
subject to the Fund's limitation on illiquid securities. A "Rule 144A" security
may be treated as liquid, however, if so determined pursuant to procedures
adopted by the Board of Trustees. Investing in Rule 144A securities could have
the effect of increasing the level of illiquidity in the Fund to the extent that
qualified institutional buyers become uninterested for a time in purchasing Rule
144A securities.
 
The Fund has adopted certain fundamental investment restrictions which are
presented in the Statement of Additional Information and which, together with
the investment objective of the Fund, cannot be changed without approval by
holders of a majority of its outstanding voting shares. As defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940, this means the lesser of the vote of (a) 67% of
the shares of the Fund present at a meeting where more than 50% of the
outstanding shares are present in person or by proxy; or (b) more than 50% of
the outstanding shares of the Fund. Policies of the Fund that are not
incorporated into any of the fundamental investment restrictions referred to
above may be changed by the Board of Trustees of the Fund without shareholder
approval.
 
OPTIONS AND FINANCIAL FUTURES TRANSACTIONS. The Fund may deal in options on
securities, securities indexes and foreign currencies, which options may be
listed for trading on a national securities exchange or traded over-the-counter.
The Fund may write (sell) covered call options and secured put options on up to
25% of its net assets and may purchase put and call options, provided that no
more than 5% of its net assets may be invested in premiums on such options.
 
A call option gives the purchaser the right to buy, and the writer the
obligation to sell, the underlying security or other asset at the exercise price
during or at the end of the option period. A put option gives the purchaser the
right to sell, and the writer the obligation to buy, the underlying security or
other asset at the exercise price during or at the end of the option period. The
writer of a covered call owns securities or other assets that are acceptable for
escrow and the writer of a secured put invests an amount not less than the
exercise price in eligible securities or other assets to the extent that it is
obligated as a writer. If a call written by the Fund is exercised, the Fund
foregoes any possible profit from an increase in the market price of the
underlying security or other asset over the exercise price plus the premium
received. In writing puts, there is a risk that the Fund may be required to take
delivery of the underlying security or other asset at a disadvantageous price.
 
Over-the-counter traded options ("OTC options") differ from exchange traded
options in several respects. They are transacted directly with dealers and not
with a clearing corporation, and there is a risk of non-performance by the
dealer as a result of the insolvency of such dealer or otherwise, in which event
the Fund may experience material losses. However, in writing options the premium
is paid in advance by the dealer. OTC options are available for a greater
variety of securities and other assets, and a wider range of expiration dates
and exercise prices, than are exchange traded options.
 
The Fund may engage in financial futures transactions. Financial futures
contracts are commodity contracts that obligate the long or short holder to take
or make delivery of a specified quantity of a financial instrument, such as
 
                                        8
<PAGE>   14
 
a security, or an amount of a foreign currency, or the cash value of a
securities index during a specified future period at a specified price. The Fund
will "cover" futures contracts sold by the Fund and maintain in a segregated
account certain liquid assets in connection with futures contracts purchased by
the Fund as described under "Investment Policies and Techniques" in the
Statement of Additional Information. In connection with its foreign securities
investments, the Fund may also engage in foreign currency financial futures
transactions. The Fund will not enter into any futures contracts or options on
futures contracts if the aggregate of the market value of the outstanding
futures contracts of the Fund and futures contracts subject to outstanding
options written by the Fund would exceed 50% of the total assets of the Fund.
 
The Fund may engage in financial futures transactions and may use index options
in an attempt to hedge against market risks. For example, when the near-term
market view is bearish but the portfolio composition is judged satisfactory for
the longer term, exposure to temporary declines in the market may be reduced by
entering into futures contracts to sell securities or the cash value of a
securities index. Conversely, where the near-term view is bullish, but the Fund
is believed to be well positioned for the longer term with a high cash position,
the Fund can hedge against market increases by entering into futures contracts
to buy securities or the cash value of a securities index. In either case, the
use of futures contracts would tend to reduce portfolio turnover and facilitate
the Fund's pursuit of its investment objective.
 
Futures contracts entail risks. If the investment manager's judgment about the
general direction of interest rates, markets or exchange rates is wrong, the
overall performance may be poorer than if no such contracts had been entered
into. There may be an imperfect correlation between movements in prices of
futures contracts and portfolio assets being hedged. In addition, the market
prices of futures contracts may be affected by certain factors. For example, if
participants in the futures market elect to close out their contracts rather
than meet margin requirements, distortions in the normal relationship between
the underlying assets and futures market could result. Price distortions also
could result if investors in futures contracts decide to make or take delivery
of underlying securities or other assets rather than engage in closing
transactions because of the resultant reduction in the liquidity of the futures
market. In addition, because, from the point of view of speculators, margin
requirements in the futures market are less onerous than margin requirements in
the cash market, increased participation by speculators in the futures market
could cause temporary price distortions. Due to the possibility of price
distortions in the futures market and because of the imperfect correlation
between movements in the prices of securities or other assets and movements in
the prices of futures contracts, a correct forecast of market trends by the
investment manager still may not result in a successful hedging transaction. If
any of these events should occur, the Fund could lose money on the financial
futures contracts and also on the value of its portfolio assets. The costs
incurred in connection with futures transactions could reduce the Fund's return.
 
Index options involve risks similar to those risks relating to transactions in
financial futures contracts described above. Also, an option purchased by the
Fund may expire worthless, in which case the Fund would lose the premium paid
therefor.
 
The Fund may engage in futures transactions only on commodities exchanges or
boards of trade. The Fund will not engage in transactions in index options,
financial futures contracts or related options for speculation, but only as an
attempt to hedge against changes in interest rates or market conditions
affecting the values of securities or other assets that the Fund owns or intends
to purchase.
 
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS. The Fund may invest all or a portion of its
assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies. The Fund may engage in
foreign currency transactions in connection with its investments in foreign
securities but will not speculate in foreign currency exchange. The value of the
foreign securities investments of the Fund measured in U.S. Dollars (including
ADRs) may be affected favorably or unfavorably by changes in foreign currency
exchange rates and exchange control regulations, and the Fund may incur costs in
connection with conversions between various currencies. The Fund will conduct
its foreign currency exchange transactions either on a spot (i.e., cash) basis
at the spot rate prevailing in the foreign currency exchange market, or through
forward contracts to purchase or sell foreign currencies. A forward foreign
currency exchange contract involves an obligation to purchase or sell a specific
currency at a future date, which may be any fixed number of days from the date
of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the
contract.
 
                                        9
<PAGE>   15
 
These contracts are traded directly between currency traders (usually large
commercial banks) and their customers.
 
When the Fund enters into a contract for the purchase or sale of a security
denominated in a foreign currency, it may want to establish the U.S. Dollar cost
or proceeds, as the case may be. By entering into a forward contract in U.S.
Dollars for the purchase or sale of the amount of foreign currency involved in
an underlying security transaction, the Fund is able to protect itself against a
possible loss between trade and settlement dates resulting from an adverse
change in the relationship between the U.S. Dollar and such foreign currency.
However, this tends to limit potential gains which might result from a positive
change in such currency relationships. The Fund may also hedge its foreign
currency exchange rate risk by engaging in currency financial futures and
options transactions.
 
When the Fund's investment manager believes that the currency of a particular
foreign country may suffer a substantial decline against the U.S. Dollar, it may
enter into a forward contract to sell an amount of foreign currency
approximating the value of some or all of the Fund's portfolio securities
denominated in such foreign currency. The forecasting of short-term currency
market movement is extremely difficult and whether such a short-term hedging
strategy will be successful is highly uncertain.
 
It is impossible to forecast with absolute precision the market value of
portfolio securities at the expiration of a contract. Accordingly, it may be
necessary for the Fund to purchase additional currency on the spot market (and
bear the expense of such purchase) if the market value of the security is less
than the amount of foreign currency the Fund is obligated to deliver when a
decision is made to sell the security and make delivery of the foreign currency
in settlement of a forward contract. Conversely, it may be necessary to sell on
the spot market some of the foreign currency received upon the sale of the
portfolio security if its market value exceeds the amount of foreign currency
the Fund is obligated to deliver.
 
   
The Fund will not enter into forward contracts or maintain a net exposure in
such contracts where the Fund would be obligated to deliver an amount of foreign
currency in excess of the value of the Fund's securities or other assets
denominated in that currency. The Fund does not intend to enter into such
forward contracts if it would have more than 15% of the value of its total
assets committed to such contracts. The Fund segregates cash or liquid
securities to the extent required by applicable regulation in connection with
forward foreign currency exchange contracts entered into for the purchase of a
foreign currency. The Fund generally does not enter into a forward contract with
a term longer than one year.
    
 
DERIVATIVES. In addition to options, financial futures and foreign currency
transactions, consistent with its objective, the Fund may invest in a broad
array of financial instruments and securities in which the value of the
instrument or security is "derived" from the performance of an underlying asset
or a "benchmark" such as a security index, an interest rate or a currency
("derivatives"). Derivatives are most often used in an effort to manage
investment risk, to increase or decrease exposure to an asset class or benchmark
(as a hedge or to enhance return), or to create an investment position
indirectly (often because it is more efficient or less costly than direct
investment). There is no guarantee that these results can be achieved through
the use of derivatives. The types of derivatives used by the Fund and the
techniques employed by the investment manager may change over time as new
derivatives and strategies are developed or regulatory changes occur.
 
SPECIAL RISK FACTORS--OPTIONS, FUTURES, FOREIGN CURRENCIES AND OTHER
DERIVATIVES. The Statement of Additional Information contains further
information about the characteristics, risks and possible benefits of options,
futures, foreign currency and other derivative transactions. See "Investment
Policies and Techniques" in the Statement of Additional Information. The
principal risks are: (a) possible imperfect correlation between movements in the
prices of options, currencies, futures or other derivatives contracts and
movements in the prices of the securities or currencies hedged, used for cover
or that the derivatives intended to replicate; (b) lack of assurance that a
liquid secondary market will exist for any particular option, futures, foreign
currency or other derivatives contract at any particular time; (c) the need for
additional skills and techniques beyond those required for normal
 
                                       10
<PAGE>   16
 
portfolio management; (d) losses on futures contracts resulting from market
movements not anticipated by the investment manager; (e) the possible need to
defer closing out certain options, futures or other derivative contracts in
order to continue to qualify for beneficial tax treatment afforded "regulated
investment companies" under the Internal Revenue Code; and (f) the possible
non-performance of the counter-party to the derivative contract.
 
LENDING OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES. Consistent with applicable regulatory
requirements, the Fund may lend its portfolio securities (principally to
broker-dealers) without limit where such loans are callable at any time and are
continuously secured by segregated collateral (cash or U.S. Government
securities) equal to no less than the market value, determined daily, of the
securities loaned. The Fund will receive amounts equal to dividends or interest
on the securities loaned. It also will earn income for having made the loan. Any
cash collateral pursuant to these loans will be invested in short-term money
market instruments. As with other extensions of credit, there are risks of delay
in recovery or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the
securities fail financially. However, the loans would be made only to firms
deemed by the Fund's investment manager to be of good standing, and when the
Fund's investment manager believes the potential earnings to justify the
attendant risk. Management will limit such lending to not more than one-third of
the value of the Fund's total assets.
 
INVESTMENT MANAGER AND UNDERWRITER
 
   
INVESTMENT MANAGER. Zurich Kemper Investments, Inc. ("ZKI"), 120 South LaSalle
Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, is the investment manager of the Fund and
provides the Fund with continuous professional investment supervision. ZKI is
one of the largest investment managers in the country and has been engaged in
the management of investment funds for more than forty-six years. ZKI and its
affiliates provide investment advice and manage investment portfolios for the
Kemper Funds, affiliated insurance companies and other corporate, pension,
profit-sharing and individual accounts representing approximately $77 billion
under management. ZKI acts as investment manager for 30 open-end and seven
closed-end investment companies, with 77 separate investment portfolios,
representing more than 3 million shareholder accounts. ZKI is an indirect
subsidiary of Zurich Insurance Company, an internationally recognized company
providing services in life and non-life insurance, reinsurance and asset
management.
    
 
Responsibility for overall management of the Fund rests with its Board of
Trustees and officers. Professional investment supervision is provided by ZKI.
The investment management agreement provides that ZKI shall act as the Fund's
investment adviser, manage its investments and provide it with various services
and facilities. ZKI will utilize the services of Zurich Investment Management
Limited ("ZIML"), 1 Fleet Place, London EC4M 7RQ, a wholly owned subsidiary of
ZKI, with respect to foreign securities investments of the Fund including
analysis, research, execution and trading services.
 
Andrew Mason has been the portfolio manager of the Fund since its inception in
1996. Mr. Mason joined ZIML in 1994, and is currently a vice president of the
Fund and Director--Asian Equities for ZIML. Prior thereto, he was a portfolio
manager of the Asian and Japanese portfolios for a United Kingdom pension fund.
Mr. Mason received his Bachelors degree in Economics from University College
Swansea, Wales.
 
The ZKI International Equity Investments area, directed by Dennis H. Ferro,
provides research and analysis regarding foreign investments to the portfolio
manager. After investment decisions are made, equity traders execute the
portfolio manager's instructions through various broker-dealer firms.
 
                                       11

The Fund pays ZKI an investment management fee, payable monthly, at the annual
rates shown below.

ZKI has agreed to a reduction of its investment management fee by .25% until the
earlier of one year from the date when the Fund commences operations or the date
when the Fund's net assets reach $100 million. The investment management fees
set forth under "Summary of Expenses" include the effect of this management fee
reduction. The expenses of the Fund, and of other investment companies investing
in foreign securities, can be expected to be higher than for investment
companies investing primarily in domestic securities since the costs of
operation are higher, including custody and transaction costs for foreign
securities and investment management fees.
 
PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER. Pursuant to an underwriting and distribution services
agreement ("distribution agreement") with the Fund, Kemper Distributors, Inc.
("KDI"), 120 South LaSalle Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, a wholly owned
subsidiary of ZKI, is the principal underwriter and distributor of the Fund's
shares and acts as agent of the Fund in the sale of its shares. KDI bears all
its expenses of providing services pursuant to the distribution agreement,
including the payment of any commissions. KDI provides for the preparation of
advertising or sales literature and bears the cost of printing and mailing
prospectuses to persons other than shareholders. KDI bears the cost of
qualifying and maintaining the qualification of Fund shares for sale under the
securities laws of the various states and the Fund bears the expense of
registering its shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission. KDI may
enter into related selling group agreements with various broker-dealers,
including affiliates of KDI, that provide distribution services to investors.
KDI also may provide some of the distribution services.
 
CLASS A SHARES. KDI receives no compensation from the Fund as principal
underwriter for Class A shares and pays all expenses of distribution of the
Fund's Class A shares under the distribution agreement not otherwise paid by
dealers or other financial services firms. As indicated under "Purchase of
Shares," KDI retains the sales charge upon the purchase of shares and pays or
allows concessions or discounts to firms for the sale of Fund shares.
 
CLASS B SHARES. For its services under the distribution agreement, KDI receives
a fee from the Fund, payable monthly, at an annual rate of .75% of average daily
net assets of the Fund attributable to Class B shares. This fee is accrued daily
as an expense of Class B shares. KDI also receives any contingent deferred sales
charges. See "Redemption or Repurchase of Shares--Contingent Deferred Sales
Charge--Class B Shares." KDI currently compensates firms for sales of Class B
shares at a commission rate of 3.75%.
 
CLASS C SHARES. For its services under the distribution agreement, KDI receives
a fee from the Fund, payable monthly, at an annual rate of .75% of average daily
net assets of the Fund attributable to Class C shares. KDI currently advances to
firms the first year distribution fee at a rate of .75% of the purchase price of
such shares. For periods after the first year, KDI currently intends to pay
firms for sales of Class C shares a distribution fee, payable quarterly, at an
annual rate of .75% of net assets attributable to Class C shares maintained and
serviced by the firm and the fee continues until terminated by KDI or the Fund.
KDI also receives any contingent deferred sales charges. See "Redemption or
Repurchase of Shares--Contingent Deferred Sales Charge--Class C Shares."
 
                                                                             12
<PAGE>   18
 
RULE 12B-1 PLAN. Since each distribution agreement provides for fees payable as
an expense of the Class B shares and the Class C shares that are used by KDI to
pay for distribution services for those classes, that agreement is approved and
reviewed separately for the Class B shares and the Class C shares in accordance
with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which regulates the
manner in which an investment company may, directly or indirectly, bear the
expenses of distributing its shares.
 
If the Rule 12b-1 Plan (the "Plan") is terminated in accordance with its terms,
the obligation of the Fund to make payments to KDI pursuant to the Plan will
cease and the Fund will not be required to make any payments past the
termination date. Thus, there is no legal obligation for the Fund to pay any
expenses incurred by KDI in excess of its fees under the Plan, if for any reason
the Plan is terminated in accordance with its terms. Future fees under the Plan
may or may not be sufficient to reimburse KDI for its expenses incurred.
 
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES. KDI also provides information and administrative
services for Fund shareholders pursuant to an administrative services agreement
("administrative agreement"). KDI may enter into related arrangements with
various financial services firms, such as broker-dealer firms or banks
("firms"), that provide services and facilities for their customers or clients
who are shareholders of the Fund. Such administrative services and assistance
may include, but are not limited to, establishing and maintaining shareholder
accounts and records, processing purchase and redemption transactions, answering
routine inquiries regarding the Fund and its special features and such other
services as may be agreed upon from time to time and permitted by applicable
statute, rule or regulation. KDI bears all its expenses of providing services
pursuant to the administrative agreement, including the payment of any service
fees. For services under the administrative agreement, the Fund pays KDI a fee,
payable monthly, at an annual rate of up to .25% of average daily net assets of
Class A, B and C shares of the Fund. KDI then pays each firm a service fee at an
annual rate of up to .25% of net assets attributable to Class A, B and C shares
maintained and serviced by the firm. Firms to which service fees may be paid
include broker-dealers affiliated with KDI.
 
CLASS A SHARES. For Class A shares, a firm becomes eligible for the service fee
based upon assets in the accounts in the month following the month of purchase
and the fee continues until terminated by KDI or the Fund. The fees are
calculated monthly and paid quarterly.
 
CLASS B AND CLASS C SHARES. KDI currently advances to firms the first-year
service fee at a rate of up to .25% of the purchase price of such shares. For
periods after the first year, KDI currently intends to pay firms a service fee
at a rate of up to .25% (calculated monthly and paid quarterly) of the net
assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares maintained and serviced by the
firm. After the first year, a firm becomes eligible for the quarterly service
fee and the fee continues until terminated by KDI or the Fund.
 
KDI also may provide some of the above services and may retain any portion of
the fee under the administrative agreement not paid to firms to compensate
itself for administrative functions performed for the Fund. Currently, the
administrative services fee payable to KDI is based only upon Fund assets in
accounts for which there is a firm listed on the Fund's records and it is
intended that KDI will pay all the administrative services fee that it receives
from the Fund to firms in the form of service fees. The effective administrative
services fee rate to be charged against all assets of the Fund while this
procedure is in effect will depend upon the proportion of Fund assets that is in
accounts for which there is a firm of record. In addition, KDI may, from time to
time, from its own resources pay certain firms additional amounts for ongoing
administrative services and assistance provided to their customers and clients
who are shareholders of the Fund.
 
CUSTODIAN, TRANSFER AGENT AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICE AGENT. The Chase Manhattan
Bank, Chase MetroTech Center, Brooklyn, New York 11245, as custodian, has
custody of all securities and cash of the Fund held outside the United States.
Investors Fiduciary Trust Company ("IFTC"), 127 West 10th Street, Kansas City,
Missouri 64105, as custodian, and State Street Bank and Trust Company, 225
Franklin Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, as sub-custodian, have custody of
all securities and cash of the Fund maintained in the United States. IFTC also
is the Fund's transfer agent and dividend-paying agent. Pursuant to a services
agreement with IFTC, Kemper Service Company, an affiliate of ZKI, serves as
"Shareholder Service Agent" of the Fund and,
 
                                       13
<PAGE>   19
 
as such, performs all of IFTC's duties as transfer agent and dividend-paying
agent. For a description of transfer agent and shareholder service agent fees
payable to IFTC and the Shareholder Service Agent, see "Investment Manager and
Underwriter" in the Statement of Additional Information.
 
PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS. ZKI and ZIML place all orders for purchases and sales of
the Fund's securities. Subject to seeking best execution of orders, they may
consider sales of shares of the Fund and other funds managed by ZKI or its
affiliates as a factor in selecting broker-dealers. See "Portfolio Transactions"
in the Statement of Additional Information.
 
DIVIDENDS AND TAXES
 
DIVIDENDS. The Fund normally distributes annual dividends of net investment
income and any net realized short-term and long-term capital gains.
 
Dividends paid by the Fund as to each class of its shares will be calculated in
the same manner, at the same time and on the same day. The level of income
dividends per share (as a percentage of net asset value) will be lower for Class
B and Class C shares than for Class A shares primarily as a result of the
distribution services fee applicable to Class B and Class C shares.
Distributions of capital gains, if any, will be paid in the same amount for each
class.
 
Income dividends and capital gain dividends, if any, of the Fund will be
credited to shareholder accounts in full and fractional Fund shares of the same
class at net asset value except that, upon written request to the Shareholder
Service Agent, a shareholder may select one of the following options:
 
(1) To receive income and short-term capital gain dividends in cash and
    long-term capital gain dividends in shares of the same class at net asset
    value; or
 
(2) To receive income and capital gain dividends in cash.
 
Any dividends of the Fund that are reinvested normally will be reinvested in
Fund shares of the same class. However, upon written request to the Shareholder
Service Agent, a shareholder may elect to have dividends of the Fund invested
without sales charge in shares of the same class of another Kemper Fund at the
net asset value of such class of such other fund. See "Special Features--Class A
Shares--Combined Purchases" for a list of such other Kemper Funds. To use this
privilege of investing dividends of the Fund in shares of another Kemper Fund,
shareholders must maintain a minimum account value of $1,000 in the Fund and a
minimum account value of $1,000 in the Kemper Fund in which dividends of the
Fund are reinvested. The Fund will reinvest dividend checks (and future
dividends) in shares of that same class of the Fund if checks are returned as
undeliverable. Dividends and other distributions in the aggregate amount of $10
or less are automatically reinvested in shares of the Fund unless the
shareholder requests that such policy not be applied to the shareholder's
account.
 
TAXES. The Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code") and, if so qualified, will
not be liable for federal income taxes to the extent its earnings are
distributed. Dividends derived from net investment income and net short-term
capital gains are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income and long-term
capital gain dividends are taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gain
regardless of how long the shares have been held and whether received in cash or
shares. Long-term capital gain dividends received by individual shareholders are
taxed at a maximum rate of 28%. Dividends declared in October, November or
December to shareholders of record as of a date in one of those months and paid
during the following January are treated as paid on December 31 of the calendar
year declared. It is anticipated that only a small portion, if any, of the
ordinary income dividends paid by the Fund will qualify for the dividends
received deduction available to corporate shareholders.
 
A dividend received shortly after the purchase of shares reduces the net asset
value of the shares by the amount of the dividend and, although in effect a
return of capital, will be taxable to the shareholder. If the net asset value of
 
                                       14
<PAGE>   20
 
shares were reduced below the shareholder's cost by dividends representing gains
realized on sales of securities, such dividends would be a return of investment
though taxable as stated above.
 
If more than 50% of the value of the Fund's total assets at the close of a
fiscal year consists of foreign securities, the Fund may make the election
permitted under Section 853 of the Code. If this election is made, shareholders
will be able to claim a credit or deduction on their income tax returns for, and
will be required to treat as part of the amounts distributed to them, their pro
rata portion of the income taxes paid by the Fund to foreign countries (which
taxes relate primarily to investment income). The shareholders of the Fund may
claim a credit by reason of the Fund's election, subject to certain limitations
imposed by Section 904 of the Code. Also, under the Code, no deduction for
foreign taxes may be claimed by individual shareholders who do not elect to
itemize deductions on their federal income tax returns; although such a
shareholder may claim a credit for foreign taxes and in any event will be
treated as having taxable income in the amount of the shareholder's pro rata
share of foreign taxes paid by the Fund.
 
The Fund is required by law to withhold 31% of taxable dividends and redemption
proceeds paid to certain shareholders who do not furnish a correct taxpayer
identification number (in the case of individuals, a social security number) and
in certain other circumstances. Trustees of qualified retirement plans and
403(b)(7) accounts are required by law to withhold 20% of the taxable portion of
any distribution that is eligible to be "rolled over." The 20% withholding
requirement does not apply to distributions from Individual Retirement Accounts
("IRAs") or any part of a distribution that is transferred directly to another
qualified retirement plan, 403(b)(7) account, or IRA. Shareholders should
consult with their tax advisers regarding the 20% withholding requirement.
 
After each transaction, shareholders will receive a confirmation statement
giving complete details of the transaction except that statements will be sent
quarterly for transactions involving dividend reinvestment and periodic
investment and redemption programs. Information for income tax purposes,
including information regarding any foreign taxes and credits, will be provided
after the end of the calendar year. Shareholders are encouraged to retain copies
of their account confirmation statements or year-end statements for tax
reporting purposes. However, those who have incomplete records may obtain
historical account transaction information at a reasonable fee.
 
   
When more than one shareholder resides at the same address, certain reports and
communications to be delivered to such shareholders may be combined in the same
mailing package, and certain duplicate reports and communications may be
eliminated. Similarly, account statements to be sent to such shareholders may be
combined in the same mailing package or consolidated into a single statement.
However, a shareholder may request that the foregoing policies not be applied to
the shareholder's account.

The net asset value per share of the Fund is determined separately for each
class by dividing the value of the Fund's net assets attributable to that class
by the number of shares of that class outstanding. The per share net asset value
of the Class B and Class C shares of the Fund will generally be lower than that
of the Class A shares of the Fund because of the higher expenses borne by the
Class B and Class C shares. Securities that are primarily traded on a domestic
securities exchange or securities listed on the NASDAQ National Market are
valued at the last sale price on the exchange or market where primarily traded
or listed, or, if there is no recent sale price available, at the last current
bid quotation. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign securities
exchanges are generally valued at the preceding closing values of such
securities on their respective exchanges where primarily traded. A security that
is listed or traded on more than one exchange is valued at the quotation on the
exchange determined to be the primary market for such security by the Board of
Trustees or its delegates. Securities not so traded or listed are valued at the
last current bid quotation if market quotations are available. Equity options
are valued at the last sale price unless the bid price is higher or the asked
price is lower, in which event such bid or asked price is used. Exchange traded
fixed income options are valued at the last sale price unless there is no sale
 
                                       15

price, in which event current prices provided by market makers are used.
Over-the-counter traded options are valued based upon current prices provided by
market makers. Financial futures and options thereon are valued at the
settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which
they are traded. Other securities and assets are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees. Because of the need to obtain
prices as of the close of trading on various exchanges throughout the world, the
calculation of net asset value of the Fund does not necessarily take place
contemporaneously with the determination of the prices of the Fund's foreign
securities, which may be made prior to the determination of net asset value. For
purposes of determining the Fund's net asset value, all assets and liabilities
initially expressed in foreign currency values will be converted into U.S.
Dollar values at the mean between the bid and offered quotations of such
currencies against U.S. Dollars as last quoted by a recognized dealer. If an
event were to occur after the value of a security was so established but before
the net asset value per share was determined, which was likely to materially
change the net asset value, then that security would be valued using fair value
considerations determined by the Board of Trustees or its delegates. On each day
the New York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange") is open for trading, the net asset
value is determined as of the earlier of 3:00 p.m. Chicago time or the close of
the Exchange.
 
PURCHASE OF SHARES
 
ALTERNATIVE PURCHASE ARRANGEMENTS. Class A shares of the Fund are sold to
investors subject to an initial sales charge. Class B shares are sold without an
initial sales charge but are subject to higher ongoing expenses than Class A
shares and a contingent deferred sales charge payable upon certain redemptions.
Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares six years after issuance.
Class C shares are sold without an initial sales charge but are subject to
higher ongoing expenses than Class A shares, are subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge payable upon certain redemptions within the first year
following purchase, and do not convert into another class. When placing purchase
orders, investors must specify whether the order is for Class A, Class B or
Class C shares.
 
The primary distinctions among the classes of the Fund's shares lie in their
initial and contingent deferred sales charge structures and in their ongoing
expenses, including asset-based sales charges in the form of Rule 12b-1
distribution fees. These differences are summarized in the table below. See,
also, "Summary of Expenses." Each class has distinct advantages and
disadvantages for different investors, and investors may choose the class that
best suits their circumstances and objectives.

Government Direct Deposit, the minimum initial and subsequent investment is $50.
These minimum amounts may be changed at any time in management's discretion.

Share certificates will not be issued unless requested in writing. It is
recommended that investors not request share certificates unless needed for a
specific purpose. You cannot redeem shares by telephone or wire transfer or use
the telephone exchange privilege if share certificates have been issued. A lost
or destroyed certificate is difficult to replace and can be expensive to the
shareholder (a bond worth 2% or more of the certificate value is normally
required).
 
INITIAL SALES CHARGE ALTERNATIVE--CLASS A SHARES. The public offering price of
Class A shares for purchasers choosing the initial sales charge alternative is
the net asset value plus a sales charge, as set forth below.

The Fund receives the entire net asset value of all Class A shares sold. KDI,
the Fund's principal underwriter, retains the sales charge on sales of Class A
shares from which it allows discounts from the applicable public offering price
to investment dealers, which discounts are uniform for all dealers in the United
States and its territories. The normal discount allowed to dealers is set forth
in the above table. Upon notice to all dealers with whom it has sales
agreements, KDI may reallow up to the full applicable sales charge, as shown in
the above table, during periods and for transactions specified in such notice
and such reallowances may be based upon attainment of minimum sales levels.
During periods when 90% or more of the sales charge is reallowed, such dealers
may be deemed to be underwriters as that term is defined in the Securities Act
of 1933.
 
Class A shares of the Fund may be purchased at net asset value to the extent
that the amount invested represents the net proceeds from a redemption of shares
of a mutual fund for which ZKI or an affiliate does not serve as investment
manager ("non-Kemper Fund") provided that: (a) the investor has previously paid
either an initial sales charge in connection with the purchase of the non-Kemper
Fund shares redeemed or a contingent deferred sales charge in connection with
the redemption of the non-Kemper Fund shares, and (b) the purchase of Fund
shares is made within 90 days after the date of such redemption. To make such a
purchase at net asset value, the investor or the investor's dealer must, at the
time of purchase, submit a request that the purchase be processed at net asset
value pursuant to this privilege. KDI may in its discretion compensate firms for
sales of Class A shares under this privilege at a commission rate of .50% of the
amount of Class A shares purchased.
 
Class A shares of the Fund may be purchased at net asset value by: (a) any
purchaser provided that the amount invested in the Fund or other Kemper Mutual
Funds listed under "Special Features--Class A Shares--Combined Purchases" totals
at least $1,000,000 including purchases of Class A shares pursuant to the
"Combined Purchases," "Letter of Intent" and "Cumulative Discount" features
described under "Special Features"; or (b) a participant-directed qualified
retirement plan described in Code Section 401(a) or a participant-directed non-
qualified deferred compensation plan described in Code Section 457 provided in
either case that such plan has not less than 200 eligible employees (the "Large
Order NAV Purchase Privilege"). Redemption within two years of shares purchased
under the Large Order NAV Purchase Privilege may be subject to a contingent
deferred sales

charge. See "Redemption or Repurchase of Shares--Contingent Deferred Sales
Charge--Large Order NAV Purchase Privilege."
 
KDI may in its discretion compensate investment dealers or other financial
services firms in connection with the sale of Class A shares of the Fund at net
asset value in accordance with the Large Order NAV Purchase Privilege up to the
following amounts: 1.00% of the net asset value of shares sold on amounts up to
$5 million, .50% on the next $45 million and .25% on amounts over $50 million.
The commission schedule will be reset on a calendar year basis for sales of
shares pursuant to the Large Order NAV Purchase Privilege to employer sponsored
employee benefit plans using the subaccount recordkeeping system made available
through Kemper Service Company. For purposes of determining the appropriate
commission percentage to be applied to a particular sale, KDI will consider the
cumulative amount invested by the purchaser in the Fund and other Kemper Mutual
Funds listed under "Special Features--Class A Shares--Combined Purchases,"
including purchases pursuant to the "Combined Purchases," "Letter of Intent" and
"Cumulative Discount" features referred to above. The privilege of purchasing
Class A shares of the Fund at net asset value under the Large Order NAV Purchase
Privilege is not available if another net asset value purchase privilege is also
applicable.
 
Effective on February 1, 1996, Class A shares of the Fund or any other Kemper
Mutual Fund listed under "Special Features--Class A Shares--Combined Purchases"
may be purchased at net asset value in any amount by members of the plaintiff
class in the proceeding known as HOWARD AND AUDREY TABANKIN, ET AL. V. KEMPER
SHORT-TERM GLOBAL INCOME FUND, ET AL., Case No. 93 C 5231 (N.D. IL). This
privilege is generally non-transferrable and continues for the lifetime of
individual class members and for a ten year period for non-individual class
members. To make a purchase at net asset value under this privilege, the
investor must, at the time of purchase, submit a written request that the
purchase be processed at net asset value pursuant to this privilege specifically
identifying the purchaser as a member of the "Tabankin Class." Shares purchased
under this privilege will be maintained in a separate account that includes only
shares purchased under this privilege. For more details concerning this
privilege, class members should refer to the Notice of (1) Proposed Settlement
with Defendants; and (2) Hearing to Determine Fairness of Proposed Settlement,
dated August 31, 1995, issued in connection with the aforementioned court
proceeding. For sales of Fund shares at net asset value pursuant to this
privilege, KDI may at its discretion pay investment dealers and other financial
services firms a concession, payable quarterly, at an annual rate of up to .25%
of net assets attributable to such shares maintained and serviced by the firm. A
firm becomes eligible for the concession based upon assets in accounts
attributable to shares purchased under this privilege in the month after the
month of purchase and the concession continues until terminated by KDI. The
privilege of purchasing Class A shares of the Fund at net asset value under this
privilege is not available if another net asset value purchase privilege also
applies.
 
Class A shares of the Fund may be purchased at net asset value in any amount by
certain professionals who assist in the promotion of Kemper Funds pursuant to
personal services contracts with KDI, for themselves or members of their
families. KDI in its discretion may compensate financial services firms for
sales of Class A shares under this privilege at a commission rate of .50% of the
amount of Class A shares purchased.
 
Class A shares may be sold at net asset value in any amount to: (a) officers,
trustees, directors, employees (including retirees) and sales representatives of
the Fund, its investment manager, its principal underwriter or certain
affiliated companies, for themselves or members of their families: (b)
registered representatives and employees of broker-dealers having selling group
agreements with KDI and officers, directors and employees of service agents of
the Fund, for themselves or their spouses or dependent children; (c)
shareholders who owned shares of Kemper-Dreman Fund, Inc. ("KDF") on September
8, 1995, and have continuously owned shares of KDF (or a Kemper Fund acquired by
exchange of KDF shares) since that date, for themselves or members of their
families, and (d) any trust or pension, profit-sharing or other benefit plan for
only such persons. Class A shares may be sold at net asset value in any amount
to selected employees (including their spouses and dependent children) of banks
and other financial services firms that provide administrative services related
to order placement and payment to facilitate transactions in shares of the Fund
for their clients pursuant to an agreement with KDI or one of its affiliates.
Only those employees of such banks and other firms who as part of their usual
 
                                       18
<PAGE>   24
 
duties provide services related to transactions in Fund Class A shares may
purchase Fund Class A shares at net asset value hereunder. Class A shares may be
sold at net asset value in any amount to unit investment trusts sponsored by
Everen Securities, Inc. In addition, unitholders of unit investment trusts
sponsored by Everen Securities, Inc. or its predecessors may purchase the Fund's
Class A shares at net asset value through reinvestment programs described in the
prospectuses of such trusts that have such programs. The Fund's Class A shares
may be sold at net asset value through certain investment advisers registered
under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and other financial services firms
that adhere to certain standards established by KDI, including a requirement
that such shares be sold for the benefit of their clients participating in a
"wrap account" or similar program under which such clients pay a fee to the
investment adviser or other firm. Such shares are sold for investment purposes
and on the condition that they will not be resold except through redemption or
repurchase by the Fund. The Fund may also issue Class A shares at net asset
value in connection with the acquisition of the assets of or merger or
consolidation with another investment company, or to shareholders in connection
with the investment or reinvestment of income and capital gain dividends.
 
The sales charge scale is applicable to purchases made at one time by any
"purchaser" which includes an individual; or an individual, his or her spouse
and children under the age of 21; or a trustee or other fiduciary of a single
trust estate or single fiduciary account; or an organization exempt from federal
income tax under Section 501(c)(3) or (13) of the Code; or a pension,
profit-sharing or other employee benefit plan whether or not qualified under
Section 401 of the Code; or other organized group of persons whether
incorporated or not, provided the organization has been in existence for at
least six months and has some purpose other than the purchase of redeemable
securities of a registered investment company at a discount. In order to qualify
for a lower sales charge, all orders from an organized group will have to be
placed through a single investment dealer or other firm and identified as
originating from a qualifying purchaser.
 
DEFERRED SALES CHARGE ALTERNATIVE--CLASS B SHARES. Investors choosing the
deferred sales charge alternative may purchase Class B shares at net asset value
per share without any sales charge at the time of purchase. Since Class B shares
are being sold without an initial sales charge, the full amount of the
investor's purchase payment will be invested in Class B shares for his or her
account. A contingent deferred sales charge may be imposed upon redemption of
Class B shares. See "Redemption or Repurchase of Shares--Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge--Class B Shares."
 
KDI compensates firms for sales of Class B shares at the time of sale at a
commission rate of up to 3.75% of the amount of Class B shares purchased. KDI is
compensated by the Fund for services as distributor and principal underwriter
for Class B shares. See "Investment Manager and Underwriter."
 
Class B shares of the Fund will automatically convert to Class A shares of the
Fund six years after issuance on the basis of the relative net asset value per
share. Class B shareholders of the Fund who originally acquired their shares as
Initial Shares of Kemper Portfolios, formerly known as Kemper Investment
Portfolios ("KIP"), hold them subject to the same conversion period schedule as
that of their KIP Portfolio. Class B shares originally representing Initial
Shares of a KIP Portfolio will automatically convert to Class A shares of the
Fund six years after issuance of the Initial Shares for shares issued on or
after February 1, 1991 and seven years after issuance of the Initial Shares for
shares issued before February 1, 1991. The purpose of the conversion feature is
to relieve holders of Class B shares from the distribution services fee when
they have been outstanding long enough for KDI to have been compensated for
distribution related expenses. For purposes of conversion to Class A shares,
shares purchased through the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions
paid with respect to Class B shares in a shareholder's Fund account will be
converted to Class A shares on a pro rata basis.
 
PURCHASE OF CLASS C SHARES. The public offering price of the Class C shares of
the Fund is the next determined net asset value. No initial sales charge is
imposed. Since Class C shares are sold without an initial sales charge, the full
amount of the investor's purchase payment will be invested in Class C shares for
his or her account. A contingent deferred sales charge may be imposed upon the
redemption of Class C shares if they are redeemed within one year of purchase.
See "Redemption or Repurchase of Shares--Contingent Deferred Sales
 
                                       19
<PAGE>   25
 
Charge--Class C Shares." KDI currently advances to firms the first year
distribution fee at a rate of .75% of the purchase price of such shares. For
periods after the first year, KDI currently intends to pay firms for sales of
Class C shares a distribution fee, payable quarterly, at an annual rate of .75%
of net assets attributable to Class C shares maintained and serviced by the
firm. KDI is compensated by the Fund as distributor and principal underwriter
for Class C shares. See "Investment Manager and Underwriter."
 
WHICH ARRANGEMENT IS BETTER FOR YOU? The decision as to which class of shares
provides a more suitable investment for an investor depends on a number of
factors, including the amount and intended length of the investment. Investors
making investments that qualify for reduced sales charges might consider Class A
shares. Investors who prefer not to pay an initial sales charge and who plan to
hold their investment for more than six years might consider Class B shares.
Investors who prefer not to pay an initial sales charge but who plan to redeem
their shares within six years might consider Class C shares. Orders for Class B
shares or Class C shares for $500,000 or more will be declined. Orders for Class
B shares or Class C shares by employer sponsored employee benefit plans using
the subaccount record keeping system made available through the Shareholder
Service Agent will be invested instead in Class A shares at net asset value
where the combined subaccount value in the Fund or other Kemper Mutual Funds
listed under "Special Features--Class A Shares--Combined Purchases" is in excess
of $5 million including purchases pursuant to the "Combined Purchases," "Letter
of Intent" and "Cumulative Discount" features described under "Special
Features." For more information about the three sales arrangements, consult your
financial representative or the Shareholder Service Agent. Financial services
firms may receive different compensation depending upon which class of shares
they sell.
 
GENERAL. Banks and other financial services firms may provide administrative
services related to order placement and payment to facilitate transactions in
shares of the Fund for their clients, and KDI may pay them a transaction fee up
to the level of the discount or commission allowable or payable to dealers as
described above. Banks currently are prohibited under the Glass-Steagall Act
from providing certain underwriting or distribution services. Banks or other
financial services firms may be subject to various state laws regarding the
services described above and may be required to register as dealers pursuant to
state law. If banking firms were prohibited from acting in any capacity or
providing any of the described services, management would consider what action,
if any, would be appropriate. KDI does not believe that termination of a
relationship with a bank would result in any material adverse consequences to
the Fund.
 
In addition to the discounts or commissions described above, KDI will, from time
to time, pay or allow additional discounts, commissions or promotional
incentives, in the form of cash or other compensation, to firms that sell shares
of the Fund. Non-cash compensation includes luxury merchandise and trips to
luxury resorts. In some instances, such discounts, commissions or other
incentives will be offered only to certain firms that sell or are expected to
sell during specified time periods certain minimum amounts of shares of the Fund
or other funds underwritten by KDI.
 
Orders for the purchase of shares of the Fund will be confirmed at a price based
on the net asset value of the Fund next determined after receipt by KDI of the
order accompanied by payment. However, orders received by dealers or other firms
prior to the determination of net asset value (see "Net Asset Value") and
received by KDI prior to the close of its business day will be confirmed at a
price based on the net asset value effective on that day ("trade date"). The
Fund reserves the right to determine the net asset value more frequently than
once a day if deemed desirable. Dealers and other financial services firms are
obligated to transmit orders promptly. Collection may take significantly longer
for a check drawn on a foreign bank than for a check drawn on a domestic bank.
Therefore, if an order is accompanied by a check drawn on a foreign bank, funds
must normally be collected before shares will be purchased. See "Purchase and
Redemption of Shares" in the Statement of Additional Information.
 
Investment dealers and other firms provide varying arrangements for their
clients to purchase and redeem Fund shares. Some may establish higher minimum
investment requirements than set forth above. Firms may arrange with their
clients for other investment or administrative services. Such firms may
independently establish and charge additional amounts to their clients for such
services, which charges would reduce the clients' return. Firms
 
                                       20
<PAGE>   26
 
also may hold Fund shares in nominee or street name as agent for and on behalf
of their customers. In such instances, the Fund's transfer agent will have no
information with respect to or control over accounts of specific shareholders.
Such shareholders may obtain access to their accounts and information about
their accounts only from their firm. Certain of these firms may receive
compensation from the Fund through the Shareholder Service Agent for
recordkeeping and other expenses relating to these nominee accounts. In
addition, certain privileges with respect to the purchase and redemption of
shares or the reinvestment of dividends may not be available through such firms.
Some firms may participate in a program allowing them access to their clients'
accounts for servicing including, without limitation, transfers of registration
and dividend payee changes; and may perform functions such as generation of
confirmation statements and disbursement of cash dividends. Such firms,
including affiliates of KDI, may receive compensation from the Fund through the
Shareholder Service Agent for these services. This prospectus should be read in
connection with such firms' material regarding their fees and services.
 
The Fund reserves the right to withdraw all or any part of the offering made by
this prospectus and to reject purchase orders. Also, from time to time, the Fund
may temporarily suspend the offering of any class of its shares to new
investors. During the period of such suspension, persons who are already
shareholders of such class of the Fund normally are permitted to continue to
purchase additional shares of such class and to have dividends reinvested.
 
Shareholders should direct their inquiries to Kemper Service Company, 811 Main
Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64105-2005 or to the firm from which they received
this prospectus.
 
REDEMPTION OR REPURCHASE OF SHARES
 
GENERAL.  Any shareholder may require the Fund to redeem his or her shares. When
shares are held for the account of a shareholder by the Fund's transfer agent,
the shareholder may redeem them by sending a written request with signatures
guaranteed to Kemper Mutual Funds, Attention: Redemption Department, P.O. Box
419557, Kansas City, Missouri 64141-6557. When certificates for shares have been
issued, they must be mailed to or deposited with the Shareholder Service Agent,
along with a duly endorsed stock power and accompanied by a written request for
redemption. Redemption requests and a stock power must be endorsed by the
account holder with signatures guaranteed by a commercial bank, trust company,
savings and loan association, federal savings bank, member firm of a national
securities exchange or other eligible financial institution. The redemption
request and stock power must be signed exactly as the account is registered
including any special capacity of the registered owner. Additional documentation
may be requested, and a signature guarantee is normally required, from
institutional and fiduciary account holders, such as corporations, custodians
(e.g., under the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act), executors, administrators,
trustees or guardians.
 
The redemption price for shares of the Fund will be the net asset value per
share of the Fund next determined following receipt by the Shareholder Service
Agent of a properly executed request with any required documents as described
above. Payment for shares redeemed will be made in cash as promptly as
practicable but in no event later than seven days after receipt of a properly
executed request accompanied by any outstanding share certificates in proper
form for transfer. When the Fund is asked to redeem shares for which it may not
have yet received good payment (i.e., purchases by check, Express-Transfer or
Bank Direct Deposit), it may delay transmittal of redemption proceeds until it
has determined that collected funds have been received for the purchase of such
shares, which will be up to 10 days from receipt by the Fund of the purchase
amount. The redemption within two years of Class A shares purchased at net asset
value under the Large Order NAV Purchase Privilege may be subject to a
contingent deferred sales charge (see "Purchase of Shares--Initial Sales Charge
Alternative--Class A Shares") and the redemption of Class B shares within six
years may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see "Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge--Class B Shares" below), and the redemption of Class C
shares within the first year following purchase may be subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge (see "Contingent Deferred Sales Charge--Class C Shares"
below).
 
Because of the high cost of maintaining small accounts, the Fund reserve the
right to redeem an account (and, in the case of Class B shares and Class C
shares, impose any applicable contingent deferred sales charge) that falls
 
                                       21
<PAGE>   27
 
below the minimum investment level, currently $1,000, as a result of
redemptions. Currently, Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and employee
benefit plan accounts are not subject to this procedure. A shareholder will be
notified in writing and will be allowed 60 days to make additional purchases to
bring the account value up to the minimum investment level before the Fund
redeems the shareholder's account. The investment required to reach that level
may be made at net asset value (without any initial sales charge in the case of
Class A shares).
 
Shareholders can request the following telephone privileges: expedited wire
transfer redemptions and EXPRESS-Transfer transactions (see "Special Features")
and exchange transactions for individual and institutional accounts and
pre-authorized telephone redemption transactions for certain institutional
accounts. Shareholders may choose these privileges on the account application or
by contacting the Shareholder Service Agent for appropriate instructions. Please
note that the telephone exchange privilege is automatic unless the shareholder
refuses it on the account application. The Fund or its agents may be liable for
any losses, expenses or costs arising out of any fraudulent or unauthorized
telephone requests pursuant to these privileges unless the Fund or its agents
reasonably believe, based upon reasonable verification procedures, that the
telephonic instructions are genuine. The SHAREHOLDER WILL BEAR THE RISK OF LOSS,
including loss resulting from fraudulent or unauthorized transactions, so long
as reasonable verification procedures are followed. Verification procedures
include recording instructions, requiring certain identifying information before
acting upon instructions and sending written confirmations.
 
TELEPHONE REDEMPTIONS. If the proceeds of the redemption (prior to the
imposition of any contingent deferred sales charge in the case of Class B shares
and Class C shares) are $50,000 or less and the proceeds are payable to the
shareholder of record at the address of record, normally a telephone request or
a written request by any one account holder without a signature guarantee is
sufficient for redemptions by individual or joint account holders, and trust,
executor and guardian account holders (excluding custodial accounts for gifts
and transfers to minors), provided the trustee, executor or guardian is named in
the account registration. Other institutional account holders and guardian
account holders of custodial accounts for gifts and transfers to minors may
exercise this special privilege of redeeming shares by telephone request or
written request without a signature guarantee subject to the same conditions as
individual account holders and subject to the limitations on liability described
under "General" above, provided that this privilege has been pre-authorized by
the institutional account holder or guardian account holder by written
instruction to the Shareholder Service Agent with signatures guaranteed.
Telephone requests may be made by calling 1-800-621-1048. Shares purchased by
check or through EXPRESS-Transfer or Bank Direct Deposit may not be redeemed
under this privilege of redeeming shares by telephone request until such shares
have been owned for at least 10 days. This privilege of redeeming shares by
telephone request or by written request without a signature guarantee may not be
used to redeem shares held in certificated form and may not be used if the
shareholder's account has had an address change within 30 days of the redemption
request. During periods when it is difficult to contact the Shareholder Service
Agent by telephone, it may be difficult to use the telephone redemption
privilege, although investors can still redeem by mail. The Fund reserves the
right to terminate or modify this privilege at any time.
 
REPURCHASES (CONFIRMED REDEMPTIONS). A request for repurchase may be
communicated by a shareholder through a securities dealer or other financial
services firm to KDI, which the Fund has authorized to act as its agent. There
is no charge by KDI with respect to repurchases; however, dealers or other firms
may charge customary commissions for their services. Dealers and other financial
services firms are obligated to transmit orders promptly. The repurchase price
will be the net asset value next determined after receipt of a request by KDI.
However, requests for repurchases received by dealers or other firms prior to
the determination of net asset value (see "Net Asset Value") and received by KDI
prior to the close of KDI's business day will be confirmed at the net asset
value effective on that day. The offer to repurchase may be suspended at any
time. Requirements as to stock powers, certificates, payments and delay of
payments are the same as for redemptions.
 
EXPEDITED WIRE TRANSFER REDEMPTIONS. If the account holder has given
authorization for expedited wire redemption to the account holder's brokerage or
bank account, shares of the Fund can be redeemed and proceeds sent by federal
wire transfer to a single previously designated account. Requests received by
the Shareholder Service Agent prior to the determination of net asset value will
result in shares being redeemed that
 
                                       22
<PAGE>   28
 
day at the net asset value effective on that day and normally the proceeds will
be sent to the designated account the following business day. Delivery of the
proceeds of a wire redemption request of $250,000 or more may be delayed by the
Fund for up to seven days if the investment manager deems it appropriate under
then current market conditions. Once authorization is on file, the Shareholder
Service Agent will honor requests by telephone at 1-800-621-1048 or in writing,
subject to the limitations on liability described under "General" above. The
Fund is not responsible for the efficiency of the federal wire system or the
account holder's financial services firm or bank. The Fund currently does not
charge the account holder for wire transfers. The account holder is responsible
for any charges imposed by the account holder's firm or bank. There is a $1,000
wire redemption minimum (including any contingent deferred sales charge). To
change the designated account to receive wire redemption proceeds, send a
written request to the Shareholder Service Agent with signatures guaranteed as
described above or contact the firm through which shares of the Fund were
purchased. Shares purchased by check or through EXPRESS-Transfer or Bank Direct
Deposit may not be redeemed by wire transfer until such shares have been owned
for at least 10 days. Account holders may not use this privilege to redeem
shares held in certificated form. During periods when it is difficult to contact
the Shareholder Service Agent by telephone, it may be difficult to use the
expedited wire transfer redemption privilege. The Fund reserves the right to
terminate or modify this privilege at any time.
 
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE--LARGE ORDER NAV PURCHASE PRIVILEGE. A
contingent deferred sales charge may be imposed upon redemption of Class A
shares that are purchased under the Large Order NAV Purchase Privilege as
follows: 1% if they are redeemed within one year of purchase and .50% if they
are redeemed during the second year following purchase. The charge will not be
imposed upon redemption of reinvested dividends or share appreciation. The
charge is applied to the value of the shares redeemed excluding amounts not
subject to the charge. The contingent deferred sales charge will be waived in
the event of: (a) redemptions by a participant-directed qualified retirement
plan described in Code Section 401(a) or a participant-directed non-qualified
deferred compensation plan described in Code Section 457; (b) redemptions by
employer sponsored employee benefit plans using the subaccount record keeping
system made available through the Shareholder Service Agent; (c) redemption of
shares of a shareholder (including a registered joint owner) who has died; (d)
redemption of shares of a shareholder (including a registered joint owner) who
after purchase of the shares being redeemed becomes totally disabled (as
evidenced by a determination by the federal Social Security Administration); (e)
redemptions under the Fund's Systematic Withdrawal Plan at a maximum of 10% per
year of the net asset value of the account; and (f) redemptions of shares of a
shareholder whose dealer of record at the time of the investment notifies KDI
that the dealer waives the discretionary commission applicable to such Large
Order NAV Purchase.
 
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE--CLASS B SHARES. A contingent deferred sales
charge may be imposed upon redemption of Class B shares. There is no such charge
upon redemption of any share appreciation or reinvested dividends on Class B
shares. The charge is computed at the following rates applied to the value of
the shares redeemed excluding amounts not subject to the charge.

The contingent deferred sales charge will be waived: (a) in the event of the
total disability (as evidenced by a determination by the federal Social Security
Administration) of the shareholder (including a registered joint owner)
occurring after the purchase of the shares being redeemed, (b) in the event of
the death of the shareholder (including a registered joint owner), (c) for
redemptions made pursuant to a systematic withdrawal plan (see "Special
Features--Systematic Withdrawal Plan" below), (d) for redemptions made pursuant
to any IRA systematic withdrawal based on the shareholder's life expectancy
including, but not limited to, substantially equal periodic payments described
in Code Section 72(t)(2)(A)(iv) prior to age 59 1/2 and (e) for redemptions to
satisfy required minimum distributions after age 70 1/2 from an IRA account
(with the maximum amount subject to this waiver being based only upon the
shareholder's Kemper IRA accounts). The contingent deferred sales charge will
also be waived in connection with the following redemptions of shares held by
employer sponsored employee benefit plans maintained on the subaccount record
keeping system made available by the Shareholder Service Agent: (a) redemptions
to satisfy participant loan advances (note that loan repayments constitute new
purchases for purposes of the contingent deferred sales charge and the
conversion privilege), (b) redemptions in connection with retirement
distributions (limited at any one time to 10% of the total value of plan assets
invested in the Fund), (c) redemptions in connection with distributions
qualifying under the hardship provisions of the Code and (d) redemptions
representing returns of excess contributions to such plans.
 
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE--CLASS C SHARES. A contingent deferred sales
charge of 1% may be imposed upon redemption of Class C shares if they are
redeemed within one year of purchase. The charge will not be imposed upon
redemption of reinvested dividends or share appreciation. The charge is applied
to the value of the shares redeemed excluding amounts not subject to the charge.
The contingent deferred sales charge will be waived: (a) in the event of the
total disability (as evidenced by a determination by the federal Social Security
Administration) of the shareholder (including a registered joint owner)
occurring after the purchase of the shares being redeemed, (b) in the event of
the death of the shareholder (including a registered joint owner), (c) for
redemptions made pursuant to a systematic withdrawal plan (limited to 10% of the
net asset value of the account during the first year, see "Special
Features--Systematic Withdrawal Plan"), (d) for redemptions made pursuant to any
IRA systematic withdrawal based on the shareholder's life expectancy including,
but not limited to, substantially equal periodic payments described in Internal
Revenue Code Section 72(t)(2)(A)(iv) prior to age 59 1/2, (e) for redemptions to
satisfy required minimum distributions after age 70 1/2 from an IRA account
(with the maximum amount subject to this waiver being based only upon the
shareholder's Kemper IRA accounts) and (f) for any participant-directed
redemption of shares held by employer sponsored employee benefit plans
maintained on the subaccount record keeping system made available by the
Shareholder Service Agent.
 
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE--GENERAL. The following example will illustrate
the operation of the contingent deferred sales charge. Assume that an investor
makes a single purchase of $10,000 of the
 
                                       24
<PAGE>   30
 
Fund's Class B shares and that 16 months later the value of the shares has grown
by $1,000 through reinvested dividends and by an additional $1,000 of share
appreciation to a total of $12,000. If the investor were then to redeem the
entire $12,000 in share value, the contingent deferred sales charge would be
payable only with respect to $10,000 because neither the $1,000 of reinvested
dividends nor the $1,000 of share appreciation is subject to the charge. The
charge would be at the rate of 3% ($300) because it was in the second year after
the purchase was made.
 
The rate of the contingent deferred sales charge is determined by the length of
the period of ownership. Investments are tracked on a monthly basis. The period
of ownership for this purpose begins the first day of the month in which the
order for the investment is received. For example, an investment made in
December, 1996 will be eligible for the second year's charge if redeemed on or
after December 1, 1997. In the event no specific order is requested when
redeeming shares subject to a contingent deferred sales charge, the redemption
will be made first from shares representing reinvested dividends and then from
the earliest purchase of shares. KDI receives any contingent deferred sales
charge directly.
 
REINVESTMENT PRIVILEGE. A shareholder who has redeemed Class A shares of the
Fund or any other Kemper Mutual Fund listed under "Special Features--Class A
Shares--Combined Purchases" (other than shares of Kemper Cash Reserves Fund
purchased directly at net asset value) may reinvest up to the full amount
redeemed at net asset value at the time of the reinvestment in Class A shares of
the Fund or of the other listed Kemper Mutual Funds. A shareholder of the Fund
or any other Kemper Mutual Fund who redeems Class A shares purchased under the
Large Order NAV Purchase Privilege (see "Purchase of Shares--Initial Sales
Charge Alternative--Class A Shares") or Class B shares or Class C shares and
incurs a contingent deferred sales charge may reinvest up to the full amount
redeemed at net asset value at the time of the reinvestment in Class A shares,
Class B or Class C shares, as the case may be, of the Fund or of other Kemper
Mutual Funds. The amount of any contingent deferred sales charge also will be
reinvested. These reinvested shares will retain their original cost and purchase
date for purposes of the contingent deferred sales charge. Also, a holder of
Class B shares who has redeemed shares may reinvest up to the full amount
redeemed, less any applicable contingent deferred sales charge that may have
been imposed upon the redemption of such shares, at net asset value in Class A
shares of the Fund or of the other Kemper Mutual Funds listed under "Special
Features--Class A Shares--Combined Purchases." Purchases through the
reinvestment privilege are subject to the minimum investment requirements
applicable to the shares being purchased and may only be made for Kemper Mutual
Funds available for sale in the shareholder's state of residence as listed under
"Special Features--Exchange Privilege." The reinvestment privilege can be used
only once as to any specific shares and reinvestment must be effected within six
months of the redemption. If a loss is realized on the redemption of Fund
shares, the reinvestment in shares of the Fund may be subject to the "wash sale"
rules if made within 30 days of the redemption, resulting in a postponement of
the recognition of such loss for federal income tax purposes. The reinvestment
privilege may be terminated or modified at any time.
 
SPECIAL FEATURES
 
CLASS A SHARES--COMBINED PURCHASES. The Fund's Class A shares (or the
equivalent) may be purchased at the rate applicable to the discount bracket
attained by combining concurrent investments in Class A shares of any of the
following funds: Kemper Technology Fund, Kemper Total Return Fund, Kemper Growth
Fund, Kemper Small Capitalization Equity Fund, Kemper Income and Capital
Preservation Fund, Kemper Municipal Bond Fund, Kemper Diversified Income Fund,
Kemper High Yield Fund, Kemper U.S. Government Securities Fund, Kemper
International Fund, Kemper State Tax-Free Income Series, Kemper Adjustable Rate
U.S. Government Fund, Kemper Blue Chip Fund, Kemper Global Income Fund, Kemper
Target Equity Fund (series are subject to a limited offering period), Kemper
Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund, Kemper Cash Reserves Fund, Kemper U.S.
Mortgage Fund, Kemper Short-Intermediate Government Fund, Kemper-Dreman Fund,
Inc., Kemper Value+Growth Fund, Kemper Quantitative Equity Fund, Kemper Horizon
Fund, Kemper Europe Fund and Kemper Asian Growth Fund ("Kemper Mutual Funds").
Except as noted below, there is no combined purchase credit for direct purchases
of shares of Kemper Money Funds, Cash Equivalent Fund, Tax-Exempt
 
                                       25
<PAGE>   31
 
California Money Market Fund, Cash Account Trust, Tax-Exempt New York Money
Market Fund or Investors Cash Trust ("Money Market Funds"), which are not
considered "Kemper Mutual Funds" for purposes hereof. For purposes of the
Combined Purchases feature described above as well as for the Letter of Intent
and Cumulative Discount features described below, employer sponsored employee
benefit plans using the subaccount record keeping system made available through
the Shareholder Service Agent may include: (a) Money Market Funds as "Kemper
Mutual Funds," (b) all classes of shares of any Kemper Mutual Fund and (c) the
value of any other plan investments, such as guaranteed investment contracts and
employer stock, maintained on such subaccount record keeping system.
 
CLASS A SHARES--LETTER OF INTENT. The same reduced sales charges for Class A
shares, as shown in the applicable prospectus, also apply to the aggregate
amount of purchases of such Kemper Mutual Funds listed above made by any
purchaser within a 24-month period under a written Letter of Intent ("Letter")
provided by KDI. The Letter, which imposes no obligation to purchase or sell
additional Class A shares, provides for a price adjustment depending upon the
actual amount purchased within such period. The Letter provides that the first
purchase following execution of the Letter must be at least 5% of the amount of
the intended purchase, and that 5% of the amount of the intended purchase
normally will be held in escrow in the form of shares pending completion of the
intended purchase. If the total investments under the Letter are less than the
intended amount and thereby qualify only for a higher sales charge than actually
paid, the appropriate number of escrowed shares are redeemed and the proceeds
used toward satisfaction of the obligation to pay the increased sales charge.
The Letter for an employer sponsored employee benefit plan maintained on the
subaccount record keeping system available through the Shareholder Service Agent
may have special provisions regarding payment of any increased sales charge
resulting from a failure to complete the intended purchase under the Letter. A
shareholder may include the value (at the maximum offering price) of all shares
of such Kemper Mutual Funds held of record as of the initial purchase date under
the Letter as an "accumulation credit" toward the completion of the Letter, but
no price adjustment will be made on such shares. Only investments in Class A
shares of the Fund are included for this privilege.
 
CLASS A SHARES--CUMULATIVE DISCOUNT. The Fund's Class A shares also may be
purchased at the rate applicable to the discount bracket attained by adding to
the cost of Fund shares being purchased the value of all Class A shares of the
above mentioned Kemper Mutual Funds (computed at the maximum offering price at
the time of the purchase for which the discount is applicable) already owned by
the investor.
 
CLASS A SHARES--AVAILABILITY OF QUANTITY DISCOUNTS. An investor or the
investor's dealer or other financial services firm must notify the Shareholder
Service Agent or KDI whenever a quantity discount or reduced sales charge is
applicable to a purchase. Upon such notification, the investor will receive the
lowest applicable sales charge. Quantity discounts described above may be
modified or terminated at any time.
 
EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE. Shareholders of Class A, Class B and Class C shares may
exchange their shares for shares of the corresponding class of other Kemper
Mutual Funds in accordance with the provisions below.
 
CLASS A SHARES. Class A shares of the Kemper Mutual Funds and shares of the
Money Market Funds listed under "Special Features--Class A Shares--Combined
Purchases" above may be exchanged for each other at their relative net asset
values. Shares of Money Market Funds and Kemper Cash Reserves Fund that were
acquired by purchase (not including shares acquired by dividend reinvestment)
are subject to the applicable sales charge on exchange. Series of Kemper Target
Equity Fund are available on exchange only during the offering period for such
series as described in the applicable prospectus. Cash Equivalent Fund,
Tax-Exempt California Money Market Fund, Cash Account Trust, Tax-Exempt New York
Money Market Fund and Investors Cash Trust are available on exchange but only
through a financial services firm having a services agreement with KDI.
 
Class A shares of the Fund purchased under the Large Order NAV Purchase
Privilege may be exchanged for Class A shares of another Kemper Mutual Fund or a
Money Market Fund under the exchange privilege described above without paying
any contingent deferred sales charge at the time of exchange. If the Class A
shares received on exchange are redeemed thereafter, a contingent deferred sales
charge may be imposed in accordance with the
 
                                       26
<PAGE>   32
 
foregoing requirements provided that the shares redeemed will retain their
original cost and purchase date for purposes of the contingent deferred sales
charge.
 
CLASS B SHARES. Class B shares of the Fund and Class B shares of any other
Kemper Mutual Fund listed under "Special Features--Class A Shares--Combined
Purchases" may be exchanged for each other at their relative net asset values.
Class B shares may be exchanged without any contingent deferred sales charge
being imposed at the time of exchange. For purposes of the contingent deferred
sales charge that may be imposed upon the redemption of the Class B shares
received on exchange, amounts exchanged retain their original cost and purchase
date.
 
CLASS C SHARES. Class C shares of the Fund and Class C shares of any other
Kemper Mutual Fund listed under "Special Features--Class A Shares--Combined
Purchases" may be exchanged for each other at their relative net asset values.
Class C shares may be exchanged without a contingent deferred sales charge being
imposed at the time of exchange. For determining whether there is a contingent
deferred sales charge that may be imposed upon the redemption of the Class C
shares received by exchange, they retain the cost and purchase date of the
shares that were originally purchased and exchanged.
 
GENERAL. Shares purchased by check or through EXPRESS-Transfer or Bank Direct
Deposit may not be exchanged until they have been owned for at least 10 days. In
addition, shares of a Kemper Mutual Fund (except Kemper Cash Reserves Fund)
acquired by exchange from another Kemper Mutual Fund, or from a Money Market
Fund, may not be exchanged thereafter until they have been owned for 15 days.
The total value of shares being exchanged must at least equal the minimum
investment requirement of the Kemper Fund into which they are being exchanged.
Exchanges are made based on relative dollar values of the shares involved in the
exchange. There is no service fee for an exchange; however, dealers or other
firms may charge for their services in effecting exchange transactions.
Exchanges will be effected by redemption of shares of the fund held and purchase
of shares of the other fund. For federal income tax purposes, any such exchange
constitutes a sale upon which a gain or loss may be realized, depending upon
whether the value of the shares being exchanged is more or less than the
shareholder's adjusted cost basis of such shares. Shareholders interested in
exercising the exchange privilege may obtain prospectuses of the other funds
from dealers, other firms or KDI. Exchanges may be accomplished by a written
request to Kemper Service Company, Attention: Exchange Department, P.O. Box
419557, Kansas City, Missouri 64141-6557, or by telephone if the shareholder has
given authorization. Once the authorization is on file, the Shareholder Service
Agent will honor requests by telephone at 1-800-621-1048, subject to the
limitations on liability under "Redemption or Repurchase of Shares--General."
Any share certificates must be deposited prior to any exchange of such shares.
During periods when it is difficult to contact the Shareholder Service Agent by
telephone, it may be difficult to implement the telephone exchange privilege.
The exchange privilege is not a right and may be suspended, terminated or
modified at any time. Exchanges may only be made for Kemper Funds that are
eligible for sale in the shareholder's state of residence. Currently, Tax-Exempt
California Money Market Fund is available for sale only in California and
Tax-Exempt New York Money Market Fund is available for sale only in New York,
Connecticut, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Except as otherwise permitted by
applicable regulations, 60 days' prior written notice of any termination or
material change will be provided.
 
SYSTEMATIC EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE. The owner of $1,000 or more of any class of the
shares of a Kemper Mutual Fund or Money Market Fund may authorize the automatic
exchange of a specified amount ($100 minimum) of such shares for shares of the
same class of another such Kemper Fund. If selected, exchanges will be made
automatically until the privilege is terminated by the shareholder or the other
Kemper Fund. Exchanges are subject to the terms and conditions described above
under "Exchange Privilege," including the $1,000 minimum investment requirement
for the Kemper Fund acquired on exchange. This privilege may not be used for the
exchange of shares held in certificated form.
 
EXPRESS-TRANSFER. EXPRESS-Transfer permits the transfer of money via the
Automated Clearing House System (minimum $100 and maximum $2,500) from a
shareholder's bank, savings and loan, or credit union account to purchase shares
in the Fund. Shareholders can also redeem shares (minimum $100 and maximum
$50,000) from their Fund account and transfer the proceeds to their bank,
savings and loan, or credit union checking account. Shares purchased by check or
through Express-Transfer or Bank Direct Deposit may not be
 
                                       27
<PAGE>   33
 
redeemed under this privilege of redeeming shares by Express-Transfer until such
shares have been owned for at least 10 days. By enrolling in EXPRESS-Transfer,
the shareholder authorizes the Shareholder Service Agent to rely upon telephone
instructions from ANY PERSON to transfer the specified amounts between the
shareholder's Fund account and the predesignated bank, savings and loan or
credit union account, subject to the limitations on liability under "Redemption
or Repurchase of Shares--General." Once enrolled in EXPRESS-Transfer, a
shareholder can initiate a transaction by calling Kemper Shareholder Services
toll free at 1-800-621-1048 Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Chicago time. Shareholders may terminate this privilege by sending written
notice to Kemper Service Company, P.O. Box 419415, Kansas City, Missouri
64141-6415. Termination will become effective as soon as the Shareholder Service
Agent has had a reasonable time to act upon the request. EXPRESS-Transfer cannot
be used with passbook savings accounts or for tax-deferred plans such as
Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRAs").
 
BANK DIRECT DEPOSIT. A shareholder may purchase additional Fund shares through
an automatic investment program. With the Bank Direct Deposit Purchase Plan,
investments are made automatically from the shareholder's account at a bank,
savings and loan or credit union into the shareholder's Fund account. By
enrolling in Bank Direct Deposit, the shareholder authorizes the Fund and its
agents to either draw checks or initiate Automated Clearing House debits against
the designated account at a bank or other financial institution. This privilege
may be selected by completing the appropriate section on the Account Application
or by contacting the Shareholder Service Agent for appropriate forms. A
shareholder may terminate his or her Plan by sending written notice to Kemper
Service Company, P.O. Box 419415, Kansas City, Missouri 64141-6415. Termination
by a shareholder will become effective within thirty days after the Shareholder
Service Agent has received the request. The Fund may immediately terminate a
shareholder's Plan in the event that any item is unpaid by the shareholder's
financial institution. The Fund may terminate or modify this privilege at any
time.
 
PAYROLL DIRECT DEPOSIT AND GOVERNMENT DIRECT DEPOSIT. A shareholder may invest
in the Fund through Payroll Direct Deposit or Government Direct Deposit. Under
these programs, all or a portion of a shareholder's net pay or government check
is automatically invested in their Fund account each payment period. A
shareholder may terminate participation in these programs by giving written
notice to the shareholder's employer or government agency, as appropriate. (A
reasonable time to act is required.) The Fund is not responsible for the
efficiency of the employer or government agency making the payment or any
financial institutions transmitting payments.
 
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN. The owner of $5,000 or more of a class of the Fund's
shares at the offering price (net asset value plus, in the case of Class A
shares, the initial sales charge) may provide for the payment from the owner's
account of any requested dollar amount to be paid to the owner or a designated
payee monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually. The $5,000 minimum account
size is not applicable to Individual Retirement Accounts. The minimum periodic
payment is $100. The maximum annual rate at which Class B shares (and Class C
shares in the first year following the purchase) may be redeemed under a
systematic withdrawal plan is 10% of the net asset value of the account. Any
income and capital gain dividends will be automatically reinvested at net asset
value. A sufficient number of full and fractional shares will be redeemed to
make the designated payment. Depending upon the size of the payments requested
and fluctuations in the net asset value of the shares redeemed, redemptions for
the purpose of making such payments may reduce or even exhaust the account.
 
The purchase of Class A shares while participating in a systematic withdrawal
plan ordinarily will be disadvantageous to the investor because the investor
will be paying a sales charge on the purchase of shares at the same time that
the investor is redeeming shares upon which a sales charge may already have been
paid. Therefore, the Fund will not knowingly permit additional investments of
less than $2,000 if the investor is at the same time making systematic
withdrawals. KDI will waive the contingent deferred sales charge on redemption
of Class B and Class C shares made pursuant to a systematic withdrawal plan. The
right is reserved to amend the systematic withdrawal plan on 30 days' notice.
The plan may be terminated at any time by the investor or the Fund.

TAX-SHELTERED RETIREMENT PLANS. The Shareholder Service Agent provides
retirement plan services and documents and KDI can establish investor accounts
in any of the following types of retirement plans:
 
- - Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRAs") with IFTC as custodian. This includes
  Simplified Employee Pension Plan ("SEP") IRA accounts and prototype documents.
 
- - 403(b)(7) Custodial Accounts also with IFTC as custodian. This type of plan is
  available to employees of most non-profit organizations.
 
- - Prototype money purchase pension and profit-sharing plans may be adopted by
  employers. The maximum annual contribution per participant is the lesser of
  25% of compensation or $30,000.
 
   
Brochures describing the above plans as well as model defined benefit plans,
target benefit plans, 457 plans, 401(k) plans and materials for establishing
them are available from the Shareholder Service Agent upon request. The
brochures for plans with IFTC as custodian describe the current fees payable to
IFTC for its services as custodian. Investors should consult with their own tax
advisers before establishing a retirement plan.
    
 
PERFORMANCE
 
The Fund may advertise several types of performance information for a class of
shares, including "average annual total return" and "total return." Performance
information will be computed separately for Class A, Class B and Class C shares.
Each of these figures is based upon historical results and is not representative
of the future performance of any class of the Fund. ZKI has agreed to a
temporary reduction of its investment management fee payable by the Fund to the
extent specified under "Investment Manager and Underwriter." This fee reduction
will improve the performance results of the Fund.
 
Average annual total return and total return figures measure both the net
investment income generated by, and the effect of any realized and unrealized
appreciation or depreciation of, the underlying investments in the Fund's
portfolio for the period in question, assuming the reinvestment of all
dividends. Thus, these figures reflect the change in the value of an investment
in the Fund during a specified period. Average annual total return will be
quoted for at least the one, five and ten year periods ending on a recent
calendar quarter (or if such periods have not yet elapsed, at the end of a
shorter period corresponding to the life of the Fund for performance purposes).
Average annual total return figures represent the average annual percentage
change over the period in question. Total return figures represent the aggregate
percentage or dollar value change over the period in question.
 
The Fund's performance may be compared to that of the Consumer Price Index or
various unmanaged equity indexes, including, but not limited to, the Dow Jones
Industrial Average, Value Line, the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index, the
Europe Australasia Far East ("EAFE") Index, AC (Combined) Far East Free ex Japan
Index and any of the country indices or regional indices prepared by Morgan
Stanley Capital International (MSCI), and may also be compared to the
performance of other mutual funds or mutual fund indexes as reported by
independent mutual fund reporting services such as Lipper Analytical Services,
Inc. ("Lipper"). Lipper performance calculations are based upon changes in net
asset value with all dividends reinvested and do not include the effect of any
sales charges. Also, investors may want to compare the historical returns of
various Asian securities markets. Such returns would not necessarily be
representative of the future performance of such markets or of the performance
of the Fund.
 
Information may be quoted from publications such as MORNINGSTAR, INC., THE WALL
STREET JOURNAL, MONEY MAGAZINE, FORBES, BARRON'S, FORTUNE, THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE,
USA TODAY, INSTITUTIONAL INVESTOR and REGISTERED REPRESENTATIVE. Also, investors
may want to compare the historical returns of various investments, performance
indexes of those investments or economic indicators, including, but not limited
to, stocks, bonds, certificates of deposit, money market funds and U.S. Treasury
obligations. Bank product performance may be based upon, among other things, the
BANK RATE MONITOR National IndexTM or various certificate of deposit indexes.
Money market fund performance may be based upon, among other things, the
IBC/Donoghue's Money Fund
 
                                       29
<PAGE>   35
 
Report(R) or Money Market Insight(R), reporting services on money market funds.
Performance of U.S. Treasury obligations may be based upon, among other things,
various U.S. Treasury bill indexes. Certain of these alternative investments may
offer fixed rates of return and guaranteed principal and may be insured.
 
The Fund may depict the historical performance of the securities in which the
Fund may invest over periods reflecting a variety of market or economic
conditions either alone or in comparison with alternative investments,
performance indexes of those investments or economic indicators. The Fund may
also describe its portfolio holdings and depict its size or relative size
compared to other mutual funds, the number and make-up of its shareholder base
and other descriptive factors concerning the Fund. The Fund may also describe
economic, political, demographic, and regulatory trends and conditions relative
to the European region and specific countries within that region and may compare
such conditions to other regions throughout the world.
 
The Fund's Class A shares are sold at net asset value plus a maximum sales
charge of 5.75% of the offering price. While the maximum sales charge is
normally reflected in a Fund's Class A performance figures, certain total return
calculations may not include such charge and those results would be reduced if
it were included. Class B shares and Class C shares are sold at net asset value.
Redemptions of Class B shares within the first six years after purchase may be
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge that ranges from 4% during the
first year to 0% after six years. Redemption of Class C shares within the first
year after purchase may be subject to a 1% contingent deferred sales charge.
Average annual total return figures do, and total return figures may, include
the effect of the contingent deferred sales charge for the Class B and Class C
shares that may be imposed at the end of the period in question. Performance
figures for the Class B shares and Class C shares not including the effect of
the applicable contingent deferred sales charge would be reduced if it were
included.
 
The Fund's returns and net asset value will fluctuate and shares of the Fund are
redeemable by an investor at the then current net asset value, which may be more
or less than original cost. Redemption of Class B shares and Class C shares may
be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge as described above. Additional
information concerning the Fund's performance, and the performance of various
global stock markets, appears in the Statement of Additional Information.
Additional information about the Fund's performance will also appear in its
Annual Report to Shareholders, which will be available without charge from the
Fund.
 
CAPITAL STRUCTURE
 
The Fund is an open-end management investment company, organized as a business
trust under the laws of Massachusetts. The Fund was organized as a business
trust under the laws of Massachusetts on June 12, 1995. The investment manager
invested the "seed money" as the sole shareholder of Kemper Asian Growth Fund
before the public offering of its shares and therefore, as of the date of this
prospectus, controlled the Fund.
 
The Fund may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest in one
or more series or "Portfolios," all having no par value, which may be divided by
the Board of Trustees into classes of shares. While only shares of a single
Portfolio are presently being offered by the Fund, the Board of Trustees of the
Fund may authorize the issuance of additional classes and additional Portfolios
if deemed desirable, each with its own investment objective, policies and
restrictions. Since the Fund may offer multiple Portfolios, it is known as a
"series company." Shares of a Portfolio have equal noncumulative voting rights
and equal rights with respect to dividends, assets and liquidation of such
Portfolio and are subject to any preferences, rights or privileges of any
classes of shares of the Portfolio. Currently, the Fund offers four classes of
shares of a single Portfolio. These are Class A, Class B and Class C shares, as
well as Class I shares, which are available for purchase exclusively by the
following investors: (a) tax-exempt retirement plans of ZKI and its affiliates;
and (b) the following investment advisory clients of ZKI and its investment
advisory affiliates that invest at least $1 million in the Fund: (1)
unaffiliated benefit plans (other than individual retirement accounts and
self-directed retirement plans); (2) unaffiliated banks and insurance companies
purchasing for their own accounts; and (3) endowment funds of unaffiliated
non-profit organizations. Shares of the Fund have equal noncumulative voting
rights except that Class B and Class C shares have separate and exclusive voting
rights with respect to the Fund's Rule 12b-1 Plan.
 
                                       30
<PAGE>   36
 
Shares of each class also have equal rights with respect to dividends, assets
and liquidation of the Fund subject to any preferences (such as resulting from
different Rule 12b-1 distribution fees), rights or privileges of any classes of
shares of the Fund. Shares are fully paid and nonassessable when issued, are
transferable without restriction and have no preemptive or conversion rights.
The Fund is not required to hold annual shareholder meetings and does not intend
to do so. However, it will hold special meetings as required or deemed desirable
for such purposes as electing trustees, changing fundamental policies or
approving an investment management agreement. Subject to the Agreement and
Declaration of Trust of the Fund, shareholders may remove trustees. If shares of
more than one Portfolio are outstanding, shareholders will vote by Portfolio and
not in the aggregate or by class except when voting in the aggregate is required
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, such as for the election of trustees,
or when voting by class is appropriate.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS
 
The Fund has adopted certain fundamental investment restrictions which, together
with the investment objective of the Fund, cannot be changed without approval of
a "majority" of its outstanding voting shares. As defined in the Investment
Company Act of 1940, this means the lesser of (1) 67% of the Fund's shares
present at a meeting where more than 50% of the outstanding shares are present
in person or by proxy; or (2) more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares.
 
THE FUND MAY NOT, AS A FUNDAMENTAL POLICY:
 
(1) With respect to 75% of the Fund's total assets, purchase securities of any
issuer (other than securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any
of its agencies or instrumentalities) if, as a result, more than 5% of the
Fund's total assets would be invested in securities of that issuer.
 
(2) Purchase more than 10% of any class of voting securities of any issuer.
 
(3) Lend money or securities, provided that the making of time or demand
deposits with banks and the purchase of debt securities such as bonds,
debentures, commercial paper, repurchase agreements and short-term obligations
in accordance with its objective and policies are not prohibited.
 
(4) Borrow money except as a temporary measure for extraordinary or emergency
purposes, and then only in an amount up to one-third of the value of its total
assets, in order to meet redemption requests without immediately selling any
portfolio securities. If, for any reason, the current value of the Fund's total
assets falls below an amount equal to three times the amount of its indebtedness
from money borrowed, the Fund will, within three days (not including Sundays and
holidays), reduce its indebtedness to the extent necessary. The Fund will not
borrow for leverage purposes and will not purchase securities or make
investments while borrowings are outstanding.
 
(5) Pledge, hypothecate, mortgage or otherwise encumber more than 15% of its
total assets and then only to secure borrowings permitted by restriction 4
above. (The collateral arrangements with respect to options and financial
futures transactions and any margin payments in connection therewith are not
deemed to be pledges or other encumbrances.)
 
(6) Make short sales of securities, or purchase any securities on margin except
to obtain such short-term credits as may be necessary for the clearance of
transactions; however, the Fund may make margin deposits in connection with
options and financial futures transactions.
 
(7) Write or sell put or call options, combinations thereof or similar options
on more than 25% of the Fund's net assets; nor may it purchase put or call
options if more than 5% of the Fund's net assets would be invested in premiums
on put and call options, combinations thereof or similar options; however, the
Fund may buy or sell options on financial futures contracts.
 
(8) Concentrate 25% or more of the Fund's total assets in any one industry.
Water, communications, electric and gas utilities shall each be considered a
separate industry. This limitation shall not apply to obligations issued by the
U.S. Government or its agencies or instrumentalities.
 
(9) Invest in commodities or commodity futures contracts, although it may buy or
sell financial futures contracts and options on such contracts and may enter
into foreign currency transactions; or in real estate, although it may invest in
securities which are secured by real estate and securities of issuers which
invest or deal in real estate including real estate investment trusts.
 
(10) Underwrite securities issued by others except to the extent the Fund may be
deemed to be an underwriter, under the federal securities laws, in connection
with the disposition of portfolio securities. The Fund may buy and sell
securities outside the United States which are not registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission or marketable in the United States.
 
                                       B-1
<PAGE>   41
 
(11) Issue senior securities except as permitted under the Investment Company
Act of 1940.
 
If a percentage restriction is adhered to at the time of investment, a later
increase or decrease in percentage beyond the specified limit resulting from a
change in values or net assets will not be considered a violation. The Fund has
adopted the following non-fundamental restrictions, which may be changed by the
Board of Trustees without shareholder approval. The Fund may not:
 
(i) Invest more than 5% of the Fund's total assets in securities of issuers
(other than obligations of, or guaranteed by, the U.S. Government, its agencies
or instrumentalities) which with their predecessors have a record of less than
three years continuous operation, and equity securities of issuers which are not
readily marketable.
 
(ii) Purchase or retain the securities of any issuer if any of the officers,
trustees or directors of the Fund or its investment adviser owns beneficially
more than 1/2 of 1% of the securities of such issuer and together own more than
5% of the securities of such issuer.
 
(iii) Invest for the purpose of exercising control or management of another
issuer.
 
(iv) Invest in interests in oil, gas or other mineral exploration or development
programs, although it may invest in the securities of issuers which invest in or
sponsor such programs.
 
(v) Purchase securities of other investment companies, except in connection with
a merger, consolidation, acquisition or reorganization, or by purchase in the
open market of securities of closed-end investment companies where no
underwriter or dealer's commission or profit, other than customary broker's
commission, is involved and only if immediately thereafter not more than (i) 3%
of the total outstanding voting stock of such company is owned by the Fund, (ii)
5% of the Fund's total assets would be invested in any one such company, and
(iii) 10% of the Fund's total assets would be invested in such securities.
 
(vi) Invest more than 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities.
 
(vii) Invest in warrants if more than 5% of the Fund's net assets would be
invested in warrants. Included within that amount, but not to exceed 2% of the
Fund's net assets, may be warrants not listed on the New York or American Stock
Exchanges. Warrants acquired in units or attached to securities may be deemed to
be without value for such purposes.
 
(viii) Invest in oil, gas, and other mineral leases.
 
(ix) Purchase or sell real property (including limited partnership interests but
excluding readily marketable interests in real estate investment trusts and
readily marketable securities of companies which invest in real estate).
 
(x) Invest more than 5% of its total assets in restricted securities, excluding
restricted securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the
Securities Act of 1933 that have been determined to be liquid pursuant to
procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees, provided that the total amount of
Fund assets invested in restricted securities and securities of issuers which
with their predecessors have a record of less than 3 years continuous operation
will not exceed 15% of total assets.
 
(xi) Invest more than 10% of its total assets in securities of real estate
investment trusts.

INVESTMENT POLICIES AND TECHNIQUES
 
GENERAL. The Fund may engage in futures, options and other derivative
transactions in accordance with its investment objective and policies. The Fund
intends to engage in such transactions if it appears to the investment manager
to be advantageous for the Fund to do so in order to pursue its investment
objective and also to hedge against the effects of market risks but not for
speculative purposes. The use of futures and options, and possible benefits and
attendant risks, are discussed below, along with information concerning certain
other investment policies and techniques.
 
FINANCIAL FUTURES CONTRACTS. The Fund may enter into financial futures contracts
for the future delivery of a financial instrument, such as a security, or an
amount of foreign currency, or the cash value of a securities index. This
investment technique is designed primarily to hedge (i.e., protect) against
anticipated future changes in market conditions or foreign exchange rates which
otherwise might affect adversely the value of securities or other assets which
the Fund holds or intends to purchase. A "sale" of a futures contract means the
undertaking of a contractual obligation to deliver the securities or the cash
value of an index or foreign currency called for by the contract at a specified
price during a specified delivery period. A "purchase" of a futures contract
means the undertaking of a contractual obligation to acquire the securities or
cash value of an index or foreign currency at a specified price during a
specified delivery period. At the time of delivery, in the case of fixed income
securities pursuant to the contract, adjustments are made to recognize
differences in value arising from the delivery of securities with a different
interest rate than that specified in the contract. In some cases, securities
called for by a futures contract may not have been issued at the time the
contract was written.
 
Although some financial futures contracts by their terms call for the actual
delivery or acquisition of securities or other assets, in most cases a party
will close out the contractual commitment before delivery of the underlying
assets by purchasing (or selling, as the case may be) on a commodities exchange
an identical futures contract calling for delivery in the same month. Such a
transaction, if effected through a member of an exchange, cancels the obligation
to make or take delivery of the underlying securities or other assets. All
transactions in the futures market are made, offset or fulfilled through a
clearing house associated with the exchange on which the contracts are traded.
The Fund will incur brokerage fees when it purchases or sells contracts, and
will be required to maintain margin deposits. At the time the Fund enters into a
futures contract, it is required to deposit with its custodian, on behalf of the
broker, a specified amount of cash or eligible securities, called "initial
margin." The initial margin required for a futures contract is set by the
exchange on which the contract is traded. Subsequent payments, called "variation
margin," to and from the broker are made on a daily basis as the market price of
the futures contract fluctuates. The costs incurred in connection with futures
transactions could reduce the Fund's return. Futures contracts entail risks. If
the investment manager's judgment about the general direction of markets or
exchange rates is wrong, the overall performance may be poorer than if no such
contracts had been entered into.
 
There may be an imperfect correlation between movements in prices of futures
contracts and portfolio assets being hedged. In addition, the market prices of
futures contracts may be affected by certain factors. If participants in the
futures market elect to close out their contracts through offsetting
transactions rather than meet margin requirements, distortions in the normal
relationship between the assets and futures markets could result. Price
distortions could also result if investors in futures contracts decide to make
or take delivery of underlying securities or other assets rather than engage in
closing transactions because of the resultant reduction in the liquidity of the
futures market. In addition, from the point of view of speculators, the margin
requirements in the futures market are less onerous than margin requirements in
the cash market, increased participation by speculators in the futures market
could cause temporary price distortions. Due to the possibility of price
distortions in the futures market and because of the imperfect correlation
between movements in the prices of securities or other assets and movements in
the prices of futures contracts, a correct forecast of market trends by the
investment manager may still not result in a successful hedging transaction. If
any of these events should occur, the Fund could lose money on the financial
futures contracts and also on the value of its portfolio assets.

OPTIONS ON FINANCIAL FUTURES CONTRACTS. The Fund may purchase and write call and
put options on financial futures contracts. An option on a futures contract
gives the purchaser the right, in return for the premium paid, to assume a
position in a futures contract at a specified exercise price at any time during
the period of the option. Upon exercise, the writer of the option delivers the
futures contract to the holder at the exercise price. The Fund would be required
to deposit with its custodian initial margin and maintenance margin with respect
to put and call options on futures contracts written by it. The Fund will
establish segregated accounts or will provide cover with respect to written
options on financial futures contracts in a manner similar to that described
under "Options on Securities." Options on futures contracts involve risks
similar to those risks relating to transactions in financial futures contracts
described above. Also, an option purchased by the Fund may expire worthless, in
which case the Fund would lose the premium paid therefor.
 
   
OPTIONS ON SECURITIES. The Fund may write (sell) "covered" call options on
securities as long as it owns the underlying securities subject to the option or
an option to purchase the same underlying securities, having an exercise price
equal to or less than the exercise price of the "covered" option, or will
establish and maintain for the term of the option a segregated account
consisting of cash or liquid securities ("eligible securities") to the extent
required by applicable regulation in connection with the optioned securities.
The Fund may write "covered" put options provided that, as long as the Fund is
obligated as a writer of a put option, the Fund will own an option to sell the
underlying securities subject to the option, having an exercise price equal to
or greater than the exercise price of the "covered" option, or it will deposit
and maintain in a segregated account eligible securities having a value equal to
or greater than the exercise price of the option. A call option gives the
purchaser the right to buy, and the writer the obligation to sell, the
underlying security at the exercise price during or at the end of the option
period. A put option gives the purchaser the right to sell, and the writer the
obligation to buy, the underlying security at the exercise price during or at
the end of the option period. The premium received for writing an option will
reflect, among other things, the current market price of the underlying
security, the relationship of the exercise price to such market price, the price
volatility of the underlying security, the option period, supply and demand and
interest rates. The Fund may write or purchase spread options, which are options
for which the exercise price may be a fixed dollar spread or yield spread
between the security underlying the option and another security that is used as
a bench mark. The exercise price of an option may be below, equal to or above
the current market value of the underlying security at the time the option is
written. The buyer of a put who also owns the related security is protected by
ownership of a put option against any decline in that security's price below the
exercise price less the amount paid for the option. The ability to purchase put
options allows the Fund to protect capital gains in an appreciated security it
owns, without being required to actually sell that security. At times the Fund
would like to establish a position in a security upon which call options are
available. By purchasing a call option, the Fund is able to fix the cost of
acquiring the security, this being the cost of the call plus the exercise price
of the option. This procedure also provides some protection from an unexpected
downturn in the market because the Fund is only at risk for the amount of the
premium paid for the call option which it can, if it chooses, permit to expire.
    
 
During the option period the covered call writer gives up the potential for
capital appreciation above the exercise price should the underlying asset rise
in value, and the secured put writer retains the risk of loss should the
underlying security decline in value. For the covered call writer, substantial
appreciation in the value of the underlying asset would result in the security
being "called away." For the secured put writer, substantial depreciation in the
value of the underlying security would result in the security being "put to" the
writer. If a covered call option expires unexercised, the writer realizes a gain
in the amount of the premium received. If the covered call option writer has to
sell the underlying security because of the exercise of a call option, it
realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security, with the
proceeds being increased by the amount of the premium.
 
If a secured put option expires unexercised, the writer realizes a gain from the
amount of the premium. If the secured put writer has to buy the underlying
security because of the exercise of the put option, the secured put writer
incurs an unrealized loss to the extent that the current market value of the
underlying security is less than
 
                                       B-4
<PAGE>   44
 
the exercise price of the put option. However, this would be offset in whole or
in part by gain from the premium received.
 
OVER-THE-COUNTER OPTIONS. As indicated in the prospectus (see "Investment
Objective, Policies and Risk Factors"), the Fund may deal in over-the-counter
traded options ("OTC options"). OTC options differ from exchange traded options
in several respects. They are transacted directly with dealers and not with a
clearing corporation, and there is a risk of nonperformance by the dealer as a
result of the insolvency of such dealer or otherwise, in which event the Fund
may experience material losses. However, in writing options the premium is paid
in advance by the dealer. OTC options are available for a greater variety of
securities, and a wider range of expiration dates and exercise prices, than are
exchange traded options. Since there is no exchange, pricing is normally done by
reference to information from market makers, which information is carefully
monitored by the investment manager and verified in appropriate cases.
 
A writer or purchaser of a put or call option can terminate it voluntarily only
by entering into a closing transaction. In the case of OTC options, there can be
no assurance that a continuous liquid secondary market will exist for any
particular option at any specific time. Consequently, the Fund may be able to
realize the value of an OTC option it has purchased only by exercising it or
entering into a closing sale transaction with the dealer that issued it.
Similarly, when the Fund writes an OTC option, it generally can close out that
option prior to its expiration only by entering into a closing purchase
transaction with the dealer to which the Fund originally wrote it. If a covered
call option writer cannot effect a closing transaction, it cannot sell the
underlying security until the option expires or the option is exercised.
Therefore, a covered call option writer of an OTC option may not be able to sell
an underlying security even though it might otherwise be advantageous to do so.
Likewise, a secured put writer of an OTC option may be unable to sell the
securities pledged to secure the put for other investment purposes while it is
obligated as a put writer. Similarly, a purchaser of such put or call option
might also find it difficult to terminate its position on a timely basis in the
absence of a secondary market.
 
The Fund understands the position of the staff of the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") to be that purchased OTC options and the securities used as
"cover" for written OTC options are illiquid securities. The investment manager
disagrees with this position and has found the dealers with which it engages in
OTC options transactions generally agreeable to and capable of entering into
closing transactions. The Fund has adopted procedures for engaging in OTC
options for the purpose of reducing any potential adverse effect of such
transactions upon the liquidity of the Fund's portfolio. A brief description of
such procedures is set forth below.
 
The Fund will only engage in OTC options transactions with dealers approved by
the investment manager pursuant to procedures adopted by the Fund's Board of
Trustees. The investment manager believes that the approved dealers should be
able to enter into closing transactions if necessary and, therefore, present
minimal credit risks to the Fund. The investment manager will monitor the
creditworthiness of the approved dealers on an ongoing basis. The Fund currently
will not engage in OTC options transactions if the amount invested by the Fund
in OTC options, plus a "liquidity charge" related to OTC options written by the
Fund, plus the amount invested by the Fund in illiquid securities, would exceed
15% of the Fund's net assets. The "liquidity charge" referred to above is
computed as described below.
 
The Fund anticipates entering into agreements with dealers to which the Fund
sells OTC options. Under these agreements the Fund would have the absolute right
to repurchase the OTC options from the dealer at any time at a price no greater
than a price established under the agreements (the "Repurchase Price"). The
"liquidity charge" referred to above for a specific OTC option transaction will
be the Repurchase Price related to the OTC option less the intrinsic value of
the OTC option. The intrinsic value of an OTC call option for such purposes will
be the amount by which the current market value of the underlying security
exceeds the exercise price. In the case of an OTC put option, intrinsic value
will be the amount by which the exercise price exceeds the current market value
of the underlying security. If there is no such agreement requiring a dealer to
allow the Fund to repurchase a
 
                                       B-5
<PAGE>   45
 
specific OTC option written by the Fund, the "liquidity charge" will be the
current market value of the securities serving as "cover" for such OTC option.
 
OPTIONS ON SECURITIES INDICES. The Fund also may purchase and write call and put
options on securities indices in an attempt to hedge against market conditions
affecting the value of securities that the Fund owns or intends to purchase, and
not for speculation. Through the writing or purchase of index options, the Fund
can achieve many of the same objectives as through the use of options on
individual securities. Options on securities indices are similar to options on a
security except that, rather than the right to take or make delivery of a
security at a specified price, an option on a securities index gives the holder
the right to receive, upon exercise of the option, an amount of cash if the
closing level of the securities index upon which the option is based is greater
than, in the case of a call, or less than, in the case of a put, the exercise
price of the option. This amount of cash is equal to the difference between the
closing price of the index and the exercise price of the option. The writer of
the option is obligated, in return for the premium received, to make delivery of
this amount. Unlike security options, all settlements are in cash and gain or
loss depends upon price movements in the market generally (or in a particular
industry or segment of the market), rather than upon price movements in
individual securities. Price movements in securities that the Fund owns or
intends to purchase will probably not correlate perfectly with movements in the
level of an index since the prices of such securities may be affected by
somewhat different factors and, therefore, the Fund bears the risk that a loss
on an index option would not be completely offset by movements in the price of
such securities.
 
   
When the Fund writes an option on a securities index, it will segregate and
mark-to-market eligible securities to the extent required by applicable
regulation in connection with a put or a call. In addition, where the Fund
writes a call option on a securities index at a time when the contract value
exceeds the exercise price, the Fund will segregate and mark-to-market, until
the option expires or is closed out, cash or cash equivalents equal in value to
such excess.
    
 
The Fund may also purchase and sell options on other appropriate indices, as
available, such as foreign currency indices. Options on a securities index
involve risks similar to those risks relating to transactions in financial
futures contracts described above. Also, an option purchased by the Fund may
expire worthless, in which case the Fund would lose the premium paid therefor.
 
   
REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS. To the extent required to comply with SEC Release No.
IC-10666, when purchasing a futures contract, writing a put option or entering
into a forward foreign currency exchange purchase, the Fund will maintain
eligible securities in a segregated account. The Fund will use cover in
connection with selling a futures contract.
    
 
The Fund will not engage in transactions in financial futures contracts or
options thereon for speculation, but only in an attempt to hedge against changes
in interest rates or market conditions affecting the value of securities which
the Fund holds or intends to purchase.
 
FOREIGN CURRENCY OPTIONS. The Fund may engage in foreign currency options
transactions. A foreign currency option provides the option buyer with the right
to buy or sell a stated amount of foreign currency at the exercise price at a
specified date or during the option period. A call option gives its owner the
right, but not the obligation, to buy the currency, while a put option gives its
owner the right, but not the obligation, to sell the currency. The option seller
(writer) is obligated to fulfill the terms of the option sold if it is
exercised. However, either seller or buyer may close its position during the
option period in the secondary market for such options any time prior to
expiration.
 
A call rises in value if the underlying currency appreciates. Conversely, a put
rises in value if the underlying currency depreciates. While purchasing a
foreign currency option can protect the Fund against an adverse movement in the
value of a foreign currency, it does not limit the gain which might result from
a favorable movement in the value of such currency. For example, if the Fund
were holding securities denominated in an appreciating foreign currency and had
purchased a foreign currency put to hedge against a decline in the value of
 
                                       B-6
<PAGE>   46
 
the currency, it would not have to exercise its put. Similarly, if the Fund has
entered into a contract to purchase a security denominated in a foreign currency
and had purchased a foreign currency call to hedge against a rise in value of
the currency but instead the currency had depreciated in value between the date
of purchase and the settlement date, the Fund would not have to exercise its
call but could acquire in the spot market the amount of foreign currency needed
for settlement.
 
FOREIGN CURRENCY FUTURES TRANSACTIONS. As part of its financial futures
transactions (see "Financial Futures Contracts" and "Options on Financial
Futures Contracts" above), the Fund may use foreign currency futures contracts
and options on such futures contracts. Through the purchase or sale of such
contracts, the Fund may be able to achieve many of the same objectives as
through forward foreign currency exchange contracts more effectively and
possibly at a lower cost.
 
Unlike forward foreign currency exchange contracts, foreign currency futures
contracts and options on foreign currency futures contracts are standardized as
to amount and delivery period and are traded on boards of trade and commodities
exchanges. It is anticipated that such contracts may provide greater liquidity
and lower cost than forward foreign currency exchange contracts.
 
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS. The Fund may engage in forward
foreign currency transactions. A forward foreign currency exchange contract
involves an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future date,
which may be any fixed number of days ("term") from the date of the contract
agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. These
contracts are traded directly between currency traders (usually large commercial
banks) and their customers. The investment manager believes that it is important
to have the flexibility to enter into such forward contracts when it determines
that to do so is in the best interests of the Fund. The Fund will not speculate
in foreign currency exchange.
 
If the Fund retains the portfolio security and engages in an offsetting
transaction with respect to a forward contract, the Fund will incur a gain or a
loss (as described below) to the extent that there has been movement in forward
contract prices. If the Fund engages in an offsetting transaction, it may
subsequently enter into a new forward contract to sell the foreign currency.
Should forward prices decline during the period between the Fund's entering into
a forward contract for the sale of foreign currency and the date it enters into
an offsetting contract for the purchase of the foreign currency, the Fund would
realize a gain to the extent the price of the currency it has agreed to sell
exceeds the price of the currency it has agreed to purchase. Should forward
prices increase, the Fund would suffer a loss to the extent the price of the
currency it has agreed to purchase exceeds the price of the currency it has
agreed to sell. Although such contracts tend to minimize the risk of loss due to
a decline in the value of the hedged currency, they also tend to limit any
potential gain which might result should the value of such currency increase.
The Fund will have to convert its holdings of foreign currencies into U.S.
Dollars from time to time in order to meet such needs as Fund expenses and
redemption requests. Although foreign exchange dealers do not charge a fee for
conversion, they do realize a profit based on the difference (the "spread")
between the prices at which they are buying and selling various currencies.
 
   
The Fund will not enter into forward contracts or maintain a net exposure in
such contracts when the Fund would be obligated to deliver an amount of foreign
currency in excess of the value of the Fund's securities or other assets
denominated in that currency. See "Foreign Currency Transactions" under
"Investment Objective, Policies and Risk Factors--Additional Investment
Information" in the prospectus. The Fund does not intend to enter into such
forward contracts if it would have more than 15% of the value of its total
assets committed to such contracts. The Fund segregates eligible securities to
the extent required by applicable regulation in connection with forward foreign
currency exchange contracts entered into for the purchase of a foreign currency.
The Fund generally does not enter into a forward contract with a term longer
than one year.
    
 
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The Fund may invest in repurchase agreements, which are
instruments under which the Fund acquires ownership of a security from a
broker-dealer or bank that agrees to repurchase the security at a mutually
agreed upon time and price (which price is higher than the purchase price),
thereby determining the yield during the Fund's holding period. In the event of
a bankruptcy or other default of a seller of
 
                                       B-7
<PAGE>   47
 
a repurchase agreement, the Fund might incur expenses in enforcing its rights,
and could experience losses, including a decline in the value of the underlying
securities and loss of income. The securities underlying a repurchase agreement
will be marked-to-market every business day so that the value of such securities
is at least equal to the investment value of the repurchase agreement, including
any accrued interest thereon. The Fund currently does not intend to invest more
than 5% of its net assets in repurchase agreements during the coming year.
 
SHORT SALES AGAINST-THE-BOX. The Fund may make short sales against-the-box for
the purpose of deferring realization of gain or loss for federal income tax
purposes. A short sale "against-the-box" is a short sale in which the Fund owns
at least an equal amount of the securities sold short or securities convertible
into or exchangeable for, without payment of any further consideration,
securities of the same issue as, and at least equal in amount to, the securities
sold short. The Fund may engage in such short sales only to the extent that not
more than 10% of the Fund's total assets (determined at the time of the short
sale) is held as collateral for such sales. The Fund currently does not intend,
however, to engage in such short sales to the extent that more than 5% of its
net assets will be held as collateral therefor during the coming year.
 
DIVIDENDS AND TAXES
 
DIVIDENDS. The Fund normally distributes annual dividends of net investment
income and any net realized short-term and long-term capital gains.
 
The level of income dividends per share (as a percentage of net asset value)
will be lower for Class B and Class C shares than for Class A shares primarily
as a result of the distribution services fee applicable to Class B and Class C
shares. Distributions of capital gains, if any, will be paid in the same amount
for each class.
 
The Fund may at any time vary the foregoing dividend practice and, therefore,
reserves the right from time to time to either distribute or retain for
reinvestment such of its net investment income and its net short-term and long-
term capital gains as the Board of Trustees of the Fund determines appropriate
under then current circumstances. In particular, and without limiting the
foregoing, the Fund may make additional distributions of net investment income
or capital gain net income in order to satisfy the minimum distribution
requirements contained in the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). Dividends will
be reinvested in shares of the Fund unless shareholders indicate in writing that
they wish to receive them in cash or in shares of other Kemper Funds as provided
in the prospectus.
 
TAXES. The Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Code and, if so qualified, will not be liable for federal
income taxes to the extent its earnings are distributed. One of the Subchapter M
requirements to be satisfied is that less than 30% of the Fund's gross income
during the fiscal year must be derived from gains (not reduced by losses) from
the sale or other disposition of securities and certain other investments held
for less than three months. The Fund may be limited in its options, futures and
foreign currency transactions in order to prevent recognition of such gains.
 
The Fund's options, futures and foreign currency transactions are subject to
special tax provisions that may accelerate or defer recognition of certain gains
or losses, change the character of certain gains or losses, or alter the holding
periods of certain of the Fund's securities.
 
The mark-to-market rules of the Code may require a Fund to recognize unrealized
gains and losses on certain options and futures held by the Fund at the end of
the fiscal year. Under these provisions, 60% of any capital gain or loss
recognized will generally be treated as long-term and 40% as short-term.
However, although certain forward contracts and futures contracts on foreign
currency are marked-to-market, the gain or loss is generally ordinary under
Section 988 of the Code. In addition, the straddle rules of the Code would
require deferral of certain losses realized on positions of a straddle to the
extent that the Fund had unrealized gains in offsetting positions at year end.
 
                                       B-8
<PAGE>   48
 
A 4% excise tax is imposed on the excess of the required distribution for a
calendar year over the distributed amount for such calendar year. The required
distribution is the sum of 98% of the Fund's net investment income for the
calendar year plus 98% of its capital gain net income for the one-year period
ending October 31, plus any undistributed net investment income from the prior
calendar year, plus any undistributed capital gain net income from the one year
period ended October 31 in the prior calendar year, minus any overdistribution
in the prior calendar year. For purposes of calculating the required
distribution, foreign currency gains or losses occurring after October 31 are
taken into account in the following calendar year. The Fund intends to declare
or distribute dividends during the appropriate periods of an amount sufficient
to prevent imposition of the 4% excise tax.
 
It is anticipated that only a small portion, if any, of the ordinary income
dividends from the Fund will be eligible for the dividends received deduction
available to corporate shareholders. The aggregate amount eligible for the
dividends received deduction may not exceed the aggregate qualifying dividends
received by the Fund for the fiscal year.
 
A shareholder who redeems shares of the Fund will recognize capital gain or loss
for federal income tax purposes measured by the difference between the value of
the shares redeemed and the adjusted cost basis of the shares. Any loss
recognized on the redemption of Fund shares held six months or less will be
treated as long-term capital loss to the extent that the shareholder has
received any long-term capital gain dividends on such shares. A shareholder who
has redeemed shares of the Fund or any other Kemper Mutual Fund listed in the
prospectus under "Special Features--Class A Shares--Combined Purchases" (other
than shares of Kemper Cash Reserves Fund not acquired by exchange from another
Kemper Mutual Fund) may reinvest the amount redeemed at net asset value at the
time of the reinvestment in shares of the Fund or in shares of the other Kemper
Mutual Funds within six months of the redemption as described in the prospectus
under "Redemption or Repurchase of Shares--Reinvestment Privilege." If redeemed
shares were purchased after October 3, 1989 and were held less than 91 days,
then the lesser of (a) the sales charge waived on the reinvested shares, or (b)
the sales charge incurred on the redeemed shares, is included in the basis of
the reinvested shares and is not included in the basis of the redeemed shares.
If a shareholder realizes a loss on the redemption or exchange of a Fund's
shares and reinvests in shares of the same Fund within 30 days before or after
the redemption or exchange, the transactions may be subject to the wash sale
rules resulting in a postponement of the recognition of such loss for federal
income tax purposes. An exchange of a Fund's shares for shares of another fund
is treated as a redemption and reinvestment for federal income tax purposes upon
which gain or loss may be recognized.
 
The Fund's investment income derived from foreign securities may be subject to
foreign income taxes withheld at the source. Because the amount of the Fund's
investments in various countries will change from time to time, it is not
possible to determine the effective rate of such taxes in advance.
 
Shareholders who are non-resident aliens are subject to U.S. withholding tax on
ordinary income dividends (whether received in cash or shares) at a rate of 30%
or such lower rate as prescribed by any applicable tax treaty.
 
PERFORMANCE
 
As described in the Prospectus, the Fund's historical performance or return for
a class of shares may be shown in the form of "average annual total return" and
"total return" figures. These measures of performance are described below.
Performance information will be computed separately for each class. Zurich
Kemper Investments, Inc., the Fund's investment manager, has agreed to a
reduction of its management fee for the Fund to the extent specified in the
prospectus. See "Investment Manager and Underwriter." This fee reduction will
improve the performance results of the Fund.
 
Average annual total return and total return measure both the net investment
income generated by, and the effect of any realized or unrealized appreciation
or depreciation of, the underlying investments in the Fund's portfolio. The
Fund's average annual total return quotation is computed in accordance with a
standardized method prescribed by rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The average annual total return for the Fund for
 
                                       B-9
<PAGE>   49
 
a specific period is found by first taking a hypothetical $1,000 investment
("initial investment") in the Fund's shares on the first day of the period,
adjusting to deduct the maximum sales charge (in the case of Class A shares),
and computing the "redeemable value" of that investment at the end of the
period. The redeemable value in the case of Class B shares may or may not
include the effect of the applicable contingent deferred sales charge that may
be imposed at the end of the period. The redeemable value is then divided by the
initial investment, and this quotient is taken to the Nth root (N representing
the number of years in the period) and 1 is subtracted from the result, which is
then expressed as a percentage. The calculation assumes that all income and
capital gains dividends paid by the Fund have been reinvested at net asset value
on the reinvestment dates during the period. Average annual total return may
also be calculated without deducting the maximum sales charge.
 
Calculation of the Fund's total return is not subject to a standardized formula,
except when calculated for the Fund's "Financial Highlights" table in the Fund's
financial statements and prospectus. Total return performance for a specific
period is calculated by first taking a hypothetical investment ("initial
investment") in the Fund's shares on the first day of the period, either
adjusting or not adjusting to deduct the maximum sales charge (in the case of
Class A shares), and computing the "ending value" of that investment at the end
of the period. The total return percentage is then determined by subtracting the
initial investment from the ending value and dividing the remainder by the
initial investment and expressing the result as a percentage. The ending value
in the case of Class B shares may or may not include the effect of the
applicable contingent deferred sales charge that may be imposed at the end of
the period. The calculation assumes that all income and capital gains dividends
paid by the Fund have been reinvested at net asset value on the reinvestment
dates during the period. Total return may also be shown as the increased dollar
value of the hypothetical investment over the period. Total return calculations
that do not include the effect of the sales charge for Class A shares or the
contingent deferred sales charge for Class B and Class C shares would be reduced
if such charges were included.
 
The Fund's performance figures are based upon historical results and are not
necessarily representative of future performance. The Fund's Class A shares are
sold at net asset value plus a maximum sales charge of 5.75% of the offering
price. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value. Redemption of
Class B shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge that is 4%
in the first year following the purchase, declines by a specified percentage
each year thereafter and becomes zero after six years. Redemption of Class C
shares may be subject to a 1% contingent deferred sales charge in the first year
following the purchase. Returns and net asset value will fluctuate. Factors
affecting the Fund's performance include general market conditions, operating
expenses and investment management. Any additional fees charged by a dealer or
other financial services firm would reduce returns described in this section.
Shares of the Fund are redeemable at the then current net asset value, which may
be more or less than original cost.
 
INVESTMENT MANAGER AND UNDERWRITER
 
INVESTMENT MANAGER. Zurich Kemper Investments, Inc. ("ZKI"), 120 South LaSalle
Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, is the Fund's investment manager. ZKI is wholly
owned by KFS Holding Corp. KFS Holding Corp. is a more than 90% owned subsidiary
of Zurich Holding Company of America, Inc., which is a wholly owned subsidiary
of Zurich Insurance Company, an internationally recognized company providing
services in life and non-life insurance, reinsurance and asset management.
Pursuant to the investment management agreement, ZKI acts as the Fund's
investment adviser, manages its investments, administers its business affairs,
furnishes office facilities and equipment, provides clerical, bookkeeping and
administrative services and permits any of its officers or employees to serve
without compensation as trustees or officers of the Fund if elected to such
positions. The investment management agreement provides that the Fund shall pay
the charges and expenses of its operations, including the fees and expenses of
the trustees (except those who are officers or employees of ZKI), independent
auditors, counsel, custodian and transfer agent and the cost of share
certificates, reports and notices to shareholders, brokerage commissions or
transaction costs, costs of calculating net asset value, taxes and membership
dues. The Fund bears the expenses of registration of its shares with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, while Kemper Distributors, Inc. ("KDI"), as
principal underwriter, pays the cost of qualifying and maintaining the
qualification of the Fund's shares for sale under the securities laws of the
various states. ZKI has
 
                                      B-10
<PAGE>   50
 
agreed to reimburse the Fund to the extent required by applicable state expense
limitations should all operating expenses of the Fund, including the investment
management fees of ZKI but excluding taxes, interest, distribution fees,
extraordinary expenses, brokerage commissions or transaction costs and any other
properly excludable expenses, exceed the applicable state expense limitations.
The Fund believes that the most restrictive state expense limitation currently
in effect would require that such operating expenses not exceed 2.5% of the
first $30 million of average daily net assets, 2% of the next $70 million and
1.5% of average daily net assets over $100 million. Under such state expense
limitation, custodian costs attributable to foreign securities that are in
excess of similar domestic custodian costs are excluded from operating expenses.
 
The investment management agreement provides that ZKI shall not be liable for
any error of judgment or of law, or for any loss suffered by the Fund in
connection with the matters to which the agreement relates, except a loss
resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of
ZKI in the performance of its obligations and duties, or by reason of its
reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the agreement.
 
The Fund's investment management agreement has an initial term ending March 1,
1998 and it continues in effect from year to year thereafter so long as its
continuation is approved at least annually (a) by a majority of the trustees who
are not parties to such agreement or interested persons of any such party except
in their capacity as trustees of the Fund and (b) by the shareholders or the
Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Fund's investment management agreement may be
terminated at any time upon 60 days' notice by either party, or by a majority
vote of the outstanding shares of the Fund, and will terminate automatically
upon assignment. If additional series become subject to an investment management
agreement, the provisions concerning continuation, amendment and termination
shall be on a series by series basis. Additional series may be subject to a
different agreement.
 
The investment management fee rates paid to ZKI by the Fund are set forth in the
prospectus, under "Investment Manager and Underwriter."
 
PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER. Pursuant to an underwriting and distribution services
agreement ("distribution agreement"), Kemper Distributors, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of ZKI, is the principal underwriter and distributor for the shares
of the Fund and acts as agent of the Fund in the continuous offering its shares.
KDI bears all its expenses of providing services pursuant to the distribution
agreement, including the payment of any commissions. The Fund pays the cost for
the prospectus and shareholder reports to be set in type and printed for
existing shareholders, and KDI pays for the printing and distribution of copies
thereof used in connection with the offering of shares to prospective investors.
KDI also pays for supplementary sales literature and advertising costs.
 
The distribution agreement continues in effect from year to year so long as such
continuance is approved for each class at least annually by a vote of the Board
of Trustees of the Fund, including the Trustees who are not interested persons
of the Fund and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the
agreement. The distribution agreement automatically terminates in the event of
its assignment and may be terminated for a class at any time without penalty by
the Fund or by KDI upon 60 days' notice. Termination by the Fund with respect to
a class may be by vote of a majority of the Board of Trustees, or a majority of
the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Fund and who have no direct
or indirect financial interest in the distribution agreement, or a "majority of
the outstanding voting securities" of the class of the Fund, as defined under
the Investment Company Act of 1940. The distribution agreement may not be
amended for a class to increase the fee to be paid by the Fund with respect to
such class without approval by a majority of the outstanding voting securities
of such class of the Fund and all material amendments must in any event be
approved by the Board of Trustees in the manner described above with respect to
the continuation of the distribution agreement. The provisions concerning the
continuation, amendment and termination of the distribution agreement are on a
class by class basis.
 
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES. Administrative services are provided to the Fund under
an administrative services agreement ("administrative agreement") with KDI. KDI
bears all its expenses of providing services pursuant to the administrative
agreement between KDI and the Fund, including the payment of service fees. For
the services under the administrative agreement, the Fund pays KDI an
administrative services fee, payable monthly, at an annual rate of up to .25% of
average daily net assets of Class A, B and C shares of the Fund.
 
                                      B-11
<PAGE>   51
 
KDI enters into related arrangements with various financial services firms, such
as broker-dealers or banks ("firms"), that provide services and facilities for
their customers or clients who are shareholders of the Fund. The firms provide
such office space and equipment, telephone facilities and personnel as is
necessary or beneficial for providing information and services to their clients.
Such services and assistance may include, but are not limited to, establishing
and maintaining shareholder accounts and records, processing purchase and
redemption transactions, answering routine inquiries regarding the Fund,
assistance to clients in changing dividend and investment options, account
designations and addresses and such other services as may be agreed upon from
time to time and permitted by applicable statute, rule or regulation. With
respect to Class A shares, KDI pays each firm a service fee, payable quarterly,
at an annual rate of up to .25% of the net assets in Fund accounts that it
maintains and services attributable to Class A shares, commencing with the month
after investment. With respect to Class B and Class C shares, KDI currently
advances to firms the first-year service fee at a rate of up to .25% of the
purchase price of such shares. For periods after the first year, KDI currently
intends to pay firms a service fee at a rate of up to .25% (calculated monthly
and paid quarterly) of the net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares
maintained and serviced by the firm. After the first year, a firm becomes
eligible for the quarterly service fee and the fee continues until terminated by
KDI or the Fund. Firms to which service fees may be paid include broker-dealers
affiliated with KDI.
 
KDI also may provide some of the above services and may retain any portion of
the fee under the administrative agreement not paid to firms to compensate
itself for administrative functions performed for the Fund. Currently, the
administrative services fee payable to KDI is based only upon Fund assets in
accounts for which there is a firm listed on the Fund's records and it is
intended that KDI will pay all the administrative services fee that it receives
from the Fund to firms in the form of service fees. The effective administrative
services fee rate to be charged against all assets of the Fund while this
procedure is in effect will depend upon the proportion of Fund assets that is in
accounts for which there is a firm of record. The Board of Trustees of the Fund,
in its discretion, may approve basing the fee to KDI on all Fund assets in the
future.
 
Certain trustees or officers of the Fund are also directors or officers of ZKI
or KDI, as indicated under "Officers and Trustees."
 
CUSTODIAN, TRANSFER AGENT AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICE AGENT. The Chase Manhattan
Bank, Chase MetroTech Center, Brooklyn, New York 11245, as custodian, has
custody of all securities and cash of the Fund held outside the United States.
Investors Fiduciary Trust Company ("IFTC"), 127 West 10th Street, Kansas City,
Missouri 64105, as custodian, and State Street Bank and Trust Company, 225
Franklin Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, as sub-custodian, have custody of
all securities and cash of the Fund maintained in the United States. They attend
to the collection of principal and income, and payment for and collection of
proceeds of securities bought and sold by the Fund. IFTC is also the Fund's
transfer agent and dividend-paying agent. Pursuant to a services agreement with
IFTC, Kemper Service Company ("KSvC"), an affiliate of ZKI, serves as
"Shareholder Service Agent" of the Fund, and as such, performs all of IFTC's
duties as transfer agent and dividend-paying agent. IFTC receives as transfer
agent, and pays to KSvC, annual account fees of $6 per account plus account set
up, transaction and maintenance charges, annual fees associated with the
contingent deferred sales charge (Class B shares only) and out-of-pocket expense
reimbursement. IFTC's fee is reduced by certain earnings credits in favor of the
Fund.
 
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS AND REPORTS TO SHAREHOLDERS. The Fund's independent
auditors, Ernst & Young LLP, 233 South Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606,
audit and report on the Fund's annual financial statements, review certain
regulatory reports and the Fund's federal income tax return, and perform other
professional accounting, auditing, tax and advisory services when engaged to do
so by the Fund. Shareholders will receive annual audited financial statements
and semi-annual unaudited financial statements.

PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
 
ZKI and its affiliates furnish investment management services for the Kemper
Funds and other clients including affiliated insurance companies. As described
in the Fund's prospectus, ZKI will use the services of its subsidiary, Zurich
Investment Management Limited ("ZIML"), with respect to foreign securities
investments of the Fund including analysis, research, execution and trading
services. ZKI and its affiliates may share some common research and trading
facilities. At times investment decisions may be made to purchase or sell the
same investment securities for the Fund and for one or more of the other clients
managed by ZKI or its affiliates. When two or more of such clients are
simultaneously engaged in the purchase or sale of the same security through the
same trading facility, the transactions are allocated as to amount and price in
a manner considered equitable to each.
 
National securities exchanges have established limitations governing the maximum
number of options in each class which may be written by a single investor or
group of investors acting in concert. An exchange may order the liquidation of
positions found to be in violation of these limits, and it may impose certain
other sanctions. These position limits may restrict the number of options the
Fund will be able to write on a particular security.
 
The above mentioned factors may have a detrimental effect on the quantities or
prices of securities and options and futures contracts available to the Fund. On
the other hand, the ability of the Fund to participate in volume transactions
may produce better executions for the Fund in some cases. The Board of Trustees
of the Fund believes that the benefits of ZKI's organization outweigh any
limitations that may arise from simultaneous transactions or position
limitations.
 
ZKI and ZIML, in effecting purchases and sales of portfolio securities for the
account of the Fund, will implement the Fund's policy of seeking best execution
of orders, which includes best net prices, except to the extent that ZKI and
ZIML may be permitted to pay higher brokerage commissions for research services
as described below. Consistent with this policy, orders for portfolio
transactions are placed with broker-dealer firms giving consideration to the
quality, quantity and nature of each firm's professional services, which include
execution, clearance procedures, wire service quotations and statistical and
other research information provided to the Fund, ZKI and ZIML. Any research
benefits derived are available for all clients, including clients of affiliated
companies. Since it is only supplemental to ZKI's and ZIML's own research
efforts and must be analyzed and reviewed by ZKI's and ZIML's staff, the receipt
of research information is not expected to materially reduce expenses. In
selecting among firms believed to meet the criteria for handling a particular
transaction, ZKI and ZIML may give consideration to those firms that have sold
or are selling shares of the Fund and of other funds managed by ZKI or its
affiliates, as well as to those firms that provide market, statistical and other
research information to the Fund, ZKI and ZIML, although ZKI and ZIML are not
authorized to pay higher commissions or, in the case of principal trades, higher
prices to firms that provide such services, except as provided below.
 
ZKI and ZIML may in certain instances be permitted to pay higher brokerage
commissions (not including principal trades) solely for receipt of market,
statistical and other research services. Subject to Section 28(e) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees
of the Fund, the Fund could pay a firm that provides research services to ZKI
and ZIML a commission for effecting a securities transaction for the Fund in
excess of the amount other firms would have charged for the transaction if ZKI
and ZIML determines in good faith that the greater commission is reasonable in
relation to the value of the research services provided by the executing firm
viewed in terms either of a particular transaction or ZKI's and ZIML's overall
responsibilities to the Fund or other clients. Not all of such research services
may be useful or of value in advising the Fund. Research benefits will be
available for all clients of ZKI and its subsidiaries. The investment management
fee paid by the Fund to ZKI is not reduced because ZKI and ZIML receive these
research services.
 
PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION OF SHARES
 
As described in the prospectus, Fund shares are sold at their public offering
price, which is the net asset value next determined after an order is received
in proper form plus, with respect to Class A shares, an initial sales charge.
 
                                      B-13
<PAGE>   53
 
The minimum initial investment is $1,000 and the minimum subsequent investment
is $100 but such minimum amounts may be changed at any time. See the prospectus
for certain exceptions to these minimums. The Fund may waive the minimum for
purchases by trustees, directors, officers or employees of the Fund or ZKI and
its affiliates. An order for the purchase of shares that is accompanied by a
check drawn on a foreign bank (other than a check drawn on a Canadian bank in
U.S. Dollars) will not be considered in proper form and will not be processed
unless and until the Fund determines that it has received payment of the
proceeds of the check. The time required for such a determination will vary and
cannot be determined in advance.
 
Upon receipt by the Shareholder Service Agent of a request for redemption,
shares of the Fund will be redeemed by the Fund at the applicable net asset
value per share of the Fund as described in the Fund's prospectus.
 
Scheduled variations in or the elimination of the initial sales charge for
purchases of Class A shares or the contingent deferred sales charge for
redemptions of Class B or Class C shares by certain classes of persons or
through certain types of transactions as described in the prospectus is provided
because of anticipated economies in sales and sales-related efforts.
 
The Fund may suspend the right of redemption or delay payment more than seven
days (a) during any period when the New York Stock Exchange ("Exchange") is
closed other than customary weekend and holiday closings or during any period in
which trading on the Exchange is restricted, (b) during any period when an
emergency exists as a result of which (i) disposal of the Fund's investments is
not reasonably practicable, or (ii) it is not reasonably practicable for the
Fund to determine the value of its net assets, or (c) for such other periods as
the Securities and Exchange Commission may by order permit for the protection of
the Fund's shareholders.
 
Although it is the Fund's present policy to redeem in cash, if the Board of
Trustees determines that a material adverse effect would be experienced by the
remaining shareholders if payment were made wholly in cash, the Fund will
satisfy the redemption request in whole or in part by a distribution of
portfolio securities in lieu of cash, in conformity with the applicable rules of
the Securities and Exchange Commission, taking such securities at the same value
used to determine net asset value, and selecting the securities in such manner
as the Board of Trustees may deem fair and equitable. If such a distribution
occurred, shareholders receiving securities and selling them could receive less
than the redemption value of such securities and in addition would incur certain
transaction costs. Such a redemption would not be so liquid as a redemption
entirely in cash. The Fund has elected to be governed by Rule 18f-1 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 pursuant to which the Fund is obligated to redeem
shares solely in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net assets of
the Fund during any 90-day period for any one shareholder of record.
 
The conversion of Class B shares to Class A shares may be subject to the
continuing availability of an opinion of counsel, a ruling by the Internal
Revenue Service or other assurance acceptable to the Fund to the effect that (a)
the assessment of the distribution services fee with respect to Class B shares
and not Class A shares does not result in the Fund's dividends constituting
"preferential dividends" under the Internal Revenue Code, and (b) the conversion
of Class B shares to Class A shares does not constitute a taxable event under
the Internal Revenue Code. The conversion of Class B shares to Class A shares
may be suspended if such assurance is not available. In that event, no further
conversions of Class B shares would occur, and shares might continue to be
subject to the distribution services fee for an indefinite period that may
extend beyond the proposed conversion date as described in the prospectus.

SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
 
The Fund generally is not required to hold meetings of its shareholders. Under
the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of the Fund ("Declaration of Trust"),
however, shareholder meetings will be held in connection with the following
matters: (a) the election or removal of trustees if a meeting is called for such
purpose; (b) the adoption of any contract for which approval by shareholders is
required by the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act"); (c) any termination
of the Fund or a class to the extent and as provided in the Declaration of
Trust; (d) any amendment of the Declaration of Trust (other than amendments
changing the name of the Fund, supplying any omission, curing any ambiguity or
curing, correcting or supplementing any defective or inconsistent provision
thereof); and (e) such additional matters as may be required by law, the
Declaration of Trust, the By-laws of the Fund, or any registration of the Fund
with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any state, or as the trustees may
consider necessary or desirable. The shareholders also would vote upon changes
in fundamental investment objectives, policies or restrictions.
 
Each trustee serves until the next meeting of shareholders, if any, called for
the purpose of electing trustees and until the election and qualification of a
successor or until such trustee sooner dies, resigns, retires or is removed by a
majority vote of the shares entitled to vote (as described below) or a majority
of the trustees. In accordance with the 1940 Act (a) the Fund will hold a
shareholder meeting for the election of trustees at such time as less than a
majority of the trustees have been elected by shareholders, and (b) if, as a
result of a vacancy in the Board
 
                                      B-16
<PAGE>   56
 
of Trustees, less than two-thirds of the trustees have been elected by the
shareholders, that vacancy will be filled only by a vote of the shareholders.
 
Trustees may be removed from office by a vote of the holders of a majority of
the outstanding shares at a meeting called for that purpose, which meeting shall
be held upon the written request of the holders of not less than 10% of the
outstanding shares. Upon the written request of ten or more shareholders who
have been such for at least six months and who hold shares constituting at least
1% of the outstanding shares of the Fund stating that such shareholders wish to
communicate with the other shareholders for the purpose of obtaining the
signatures necessary to demand a meeting to consider removal of a trustee, the
Fund has undertaken to disseminate appropriate materials at the expense of the
requesting shareholders.
 
The Fund's Declaration of Trust provides that the presence at a shareholder
meeting in person or by proxy of at least 30% of the shares entitled to vote on
a matter shall constitute a quorum. Thus, a meeting of shareholders of the Fund
could take place even if less than a majority of the shareholders were
represented on its scheduled date. Shareholders would in such a case be
permitted to take action which does not require a larger vote than a majority of
a quorum, such as the election of trustees and ratification of the selection of
independent auditors. Some matters requiring a larger vote under the Declaration
of Trust, such as termination or reorganization of the Fund and certain
amendments of the Declaration of Trust, would not be affected by this provision;
nor would matters which under the 1940 Act require the vote of a "majority of
the outstanding voting securities" as defined in the 1940 Act.
 
The Fund's Declaration of Trust specifically authorizes the Board of Trustees to
terminate the Fund or any Portfolio or class by notice to the shareholders
without shareholder approval.
 
Under Massachusetts law, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust could,
under certain circumstances, be held personally liable for obligations of the
Fund. The Declaration of Trust, however, disclaims shareholder liability for
acts or obligations of the Fund and requires that notice of such disclaimer be
given in each agreement, obligation, or instrument entered into or executed by
the Fund or the Fund's trustees. Moreover, the Declaration of Trust provides for
indemnification out of Fund property for all losses and expenses of any
shareholder held personally liable for the obligations of the Fund and the Fund
will be covered by insurance which the trustees consider adequate to cover
foreseeable tort claims. Thus, the risk of a shareholder incurring financial
loss on account of shareholder liability is considered by ZKI remote and not

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
 
The Board of Trustees and Shareholder
Kemper Asian Growth Fund
 
   
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of Kemper Asian Growth
Fund as of September 13, 1996. This statement of net assets is the
responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on this statement of net assets based on our audit.
    
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the statement of net assets is free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the statement of net assets. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall statement of net assets
presentation. We believe that our audit of the statement of net assets provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
   
In our opinion, the statement of net assets referred to above presents fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Kemper Asian Growth Fund at
September 13, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
    
 
   
                                                               Ernst & Young LLP

ITEM 25. PERSONS CONTROLLED BY OR UNDER COMMON CONTROL WITH REGISTRANT
 
   
          As reflected in the statement of net assets contained in the Part B
Statement of Additional Information, Zurich Kemper Investments, Inc. ("ZKI"),
Registrant's Investment manager provided the initial capital of Registrant of
$500,000. There are no other security holders of Registrant.
    
 
ITEM 26. NUMBER OF HOLDERS OF SECURITIES
 
   
          As of September 13, 1996 there was one holder of record of each class
of shares of Registrant, except the Class I shares for which there were no
holders of record.
    
 
ITEM 27. INDEMNIFICATION
 
          Article VIII of the Registrant's Agreement and Declaration of Trust
(Exhibit 1 hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference) provides in effect
that the Registrant will indemnify its officers and trustees under certain
circumstances. However, in accordance with Section 17(h) and 17(i) of the
Investment Company Act of 1940 and its own terms, said Article of the Agreement
and Declaration of Trust does not protect any person against any liability to
the Registrant or its shareholders to which he would otherwise be subject by
reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless
disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his office.
 
          Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers, and controlling
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer, or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit, or
proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer, or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question as to whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

vote of a majority of the Trustees then in office.  Except to the
extent expressly provided in a written agreement with the Trust,

or removal, or any right to damages on account of such removal.

                      Section 6.  Vacancies

            Section 7.  Shares of Beneficial Interest

7.1  Share Certificates.  No certificates certifying the
ownership of shares shall be issued except as the Trustees may
otherwise authorize.  In the event that the Trustees authorize
the issuance of share certificates, subject to the provisions of
Section 7.3, each shareholder shall be entitled to a certificate
stating the number of shares owned by him or her, in such form as
shall be prescribed from time to time by the Trustees.  Such
certificate shall be signed by the President or a Vice President
and by the Treasurer, Assistant Treasurer, Secretary or Assistant
Secretary.  Such signatures may be facsimiles if the certificate
is signed by a transfer or shareholder services agent or by a

                                5


<PAGE>   6

registrar, other than a Trustee, officer or employee of the
Trust.  In case any officer who has signed or whose facsimile
signature has been placed on such certificate shall have ceased
to be such officer before such certificate is issued, it may be
issued by the Trust with the same effect as if he or she were
such officer at the time of its issue.

In lieu of issuing certificates for shares, the Trustees or the
transfer or shareholder services agent may either issue receipts
therefor or may keep accounts upon the books of the Trust for the
record holders of such shares, who shall in either case be
deemed, for all purposes hereunder, to be the holders of
certificates for such shares as if they had accepted such
certificates and shall be held to have expressly assented and
agreed to the terms hereof.

7.2  Loss of Certificates.  In the case of the alleged loss or
destruction or the mutilation of a share certificate, a duplicate
certificate may be issued in place thereof, upon such terms as
the Trustees may prescribe.

7.3  Discontinuance of Issuance of Certificates.  The Trustees
may at any time discontinue the issuance of share certificates
and may, by written notice to each shareholder, require the
surrender of share certificates to the Trust for cancellation.
Such surrender and cancellation shall not affect the ownership of
shares in the Trust.

                     Section 8.  Record Date

The Trustees may fix in advance a time, which shall not be more
than 90 days before the date of any meeting of shareholders or
the date for the payment of any dividend or making of any other
distribution to shareholders, as the record date for determining
the shareholders having the right to notice and to vote at such
meeting and any adjournment thereof or the right to receive such
dividend or distribution, and in such case only shareholders of
record on such record date shall have such right, notwithstanding
any transfer of shares on the books of the Trust after the record
date.

                         Section 9.  Seal

The seal of the Trust shall, subject to alteration by the
Trustees, consist of a flat-faced circular die with the word
"Massachusetts" together with the name of the Trust, cut or
engraved thereon; but, unless otherwise required by the Trustees,
the seal shall not be necessary to be placed on, and its absence
shall not impair the validity of, any document, instrument, or
other paper executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Trust.

                 Section 10.  Execution of Papers

Except as the Trustees may generally or in particular cases
authorize the execution thereof in some other manner, all deeds,
leases, transfers, contracts, bonds, notes, checks, drafts and
other obligations made, accepted or endorsed by the Trust shall
be signed, and any transfers of securities standing in the name
of the Trust shall be executed, by the President or by one of the
Vice Presidents or by the Treasurer or by whomsoever else shall
be designated for that purpose by the vote of the Trustees and
need not bear the seal of the Trust.

                     Section 11.  Fiscal Year

The fiscal year of the Trust shall end on such date in each year
as the Trustees shall from time to time determine.

                     Section 12.  Amendments

These By-Laws may be amended or repealed, in whole or in part, by
a majority of the Trustees then in office at any meeting of the
Trustees, or by one or more writings signed by such majority.

                 INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

     AGREEMENT made this ______ day of _______________, 19___, by
and between KEMPER ASIAN GROWTH FUND, a Massachusetts business
trust (the "Fund"), and ZURICH KEMPER INVESTMENTS, INC., a
Delaware corporation (the "Adviser").

     WHEREAS, the Fund is an open-end management investment
company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the
shares of beneficial interest ("Shares") of which are registered
under the Securities Act of 1933;

     WHEREAS, the Fund is authorized to issue Shares in separate
series or portfolios with each representing the interests in a
separate portfolio of securities and other assets;

     WHEREAS, the Fund currently offers or intends to offer
Shares in one portfolio, the Initial Portfolio, together with any
other Fund portfolios which may be established later and served
by the Adviser hereunder, being herein referred to collectively
as the "Portfolios" and individually referred to as a
"Portfolio"; and

     WHEREAS, the Fund desires at this time to retain the Adviser
to render investment advisory and management services to the
Initial Portfolio, and the Adviser is willing to render such
services;

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants
hereinafter contained, it is hereby agreed by and between the
parties hereto as follows:

 1.  The Fund hereby employs the Adviser to act as the investment
adviser for the Initial Portfolio and other Portfolios hereunder
and to manage the investment and reinvestment of the assets of
each such Portfolio in accordance with the applicable investment
objectives and policies and limitations, and to administer the
affairs of each such Portfolio to the extent requested by and
subject to the supervision of the Board of Trustees of the Fund
for the period and upon the terms herein set forth, and to place
orders for the purchase or sale of portfolio securities for the
Fund's account with brokers or dealers selected by it; and, in
connection therewith, the Adviser is authorized as the agent of
the Fund to give instructions to the Custodian of the Fund as to
the deliveries of securities and payments of cash for the account
of the Fund.  In connection with the selection of such brokers or
dealers and the placing of such orders, the Adviser is directed
to seek for the Fund best execution of orders.  Subject to such
policies as the Board of Trustees of the Fund determines, the
Adviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have
<PAGE>   2

breached any duty, created by this Agreement or otherwise, solely
by reason of its having caused the Fund to pay a broker or dealer
an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction in
excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would
have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Adviser
determined in good faith that such amount of commission was
reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research
services provided by such broker or dealer viewed in terms of
either that particular transaction or the Adviser's overall
responsibilities with respect to the clients of the Adviser as to
which the Adviser exercises investment discretion.  The Fund
recognizes that all research services and research that the
Adviser receives or generates are available for all clients, and
that the Fund and other clients may benefit thereby.  The
investment of funds shall be subject to all applicable
restrictions of the Agreement and Declaration of Trust and By-
Laws of the Fund as may from time to time be in force.

     The Adviser accepts such employment and agrees during such
period to render such services, to furnish office facilities and
equipment and clerical, bookkeeping and administrative services
for the Fund, to permit any of its officers or employees to serve
without compensation as trustees or officers of the Fund if
elected to such positions and to assume the obligations herein
set forth for the compensation herein provided.  The Adviser
shall for all purposes herein provided be deemed to be an
independent contractor and, unless otherwise expressly provided
or authorized, shall have no authority to act for or represent
the Fund in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Fund.
It is understood and agreed that the Adviser, by separate
agreements with the Fund, may also serve the Fund in other
capacities.

 2.  In the event that the Fund establishes one or more
portfolios other than the Initial Portfolio with respect to which
it desires to retain the Adviser to render investment advisory
and management services hereunder, it shall notify the Adviser in
writing.  If the Adviser is willing to render such services, it
shall notify the Fund in writing whereupon such portfolio or
portfolios shall become a Portfolio or Portfolios hereunder.

 3.  For the services and facilities described in Section 1, the
Fund will pay to the Adviser at the end of each calendar month,
an investment management fee for each Portfolio computed by
applying the following annual rates to the applicable average
daily net assets of the Portfolio:

                  Over $12,500,000         .72 of 1%

</TABLE>

     The fee as computed above shall be computed separately for,
and charged as an expense of, each Portfolio based upon the
average daily net assets of such Portfolio.  For the month and
year in which this Agreement becomes effective or terminates,
there shall be an appropriate proration on the basis of the
number of days that the Agreement is in effect during the month
and year, respectively.

 4.  The services of the Adviser to the Fund under this Agreement
are not to be deemed exclusive, and the Adviser shall be free to
render similar services or other services to others so long as
its services hereunder are not impaired thereby.

 5.  In addition to the fee of the Adviser, the Fund shall assume
and pay any expenses for services rendered by a custodian for the
safekeeping of the Fund's securities or other property, for
keeping its books of account, for any other charges of the
custodian, and for calculating the net asset value of the Fund as
provided in the prospectus of the Fund.  The Adviser shall not be
required to pay and the Fund shall assume and pay the charges and
expenses of its operations, including compensation of the
trustees (other than those affiliated with the Adviser), charges
and expenses of independent auditors, of legal counsel, of any
transfer or dividend disbursing agent, and of any registrar of
the Fund, costs of acquiring and disposing of portfolio
securities, interest, if any, on obligations incurred by the
Fund, costs of share certificates and of reports, membership dues
in the Investment Company Institute or any similar organization,
costs of reports and notices to shareholders, other like
miscellaneous expenses and all taxes and fees payable to federal,
state or other governmental agencies on account of the
registration of securities issued by the Fund, filing of trust

                                3
<PAGE>   4

documents or otherwise.  The Fund shall not pay or incur any
obligation for any expenses for which the Fund intends to seek
reimbursement from the Adviser as herein provided without first
obtaining the written approval of the Adviser.  The Adviser shall
arrange, if desired by the Fund, for officers or employees of the
Adviser to serve, without compensation from the Fund, as
trustees, officers or agents of the Fund if duly elected or
appointed to such positions and subject to their individual
consent and to any limitations imposed by law.

     If expenses borne by the Fund for those Portfolios which the
Adviser manages in any fiscal year (including the Adviser's fee,
but excluding interest, taxes, fees incurred in acquiring and
disposing of portfolio securities, distribution services fees,
extraordinary expenses and any other expenses excludable under
state securities law limitations) exceed any applicable
limitation arising under state securities laws, the Adviser will
reduce its fee or reimburse the Fund for any excess to the extent
required by such state securities laws.  If for any month the
expenses of the Fund properly chargeable to the income account
shall exceed 1/12 of the percentage of average net assets
allowable as expenses, the payment to the Adviser for that month
shall be reduced and if necessary the Adviser shall make a refund
payment to the Fund so that the total net expense will not exceed
such percentage.  As of the end of the Fund's fiscal year,
however, the foregoing computations and payments shall be
readjusted so that the aggregate compensation payable to the
Adviser for the year is equal to the percentage calculated in
accordance with Section 3 hereof of the average net asset value
as determined as described herein throughout the fiscal year,
diminished to the extent necessary so that the total of the
aforementioned expense items of the Fund shall not exceed the
expense limitation.  The aggregate of repayments, if any, by the
Adviser to the Fund for the year shall be the amount necessary to
limit the said net expense to said percentage in accordance with
the foregoing.

     The net asset value for each Portfolio shall be calculated
in accordance with the provisions of the Fund's prospectus or as
the trustees may determine in accordance with the provisions of
the Investment Company Act of 1940.  On each day when net asset
value is not calculated, the net asset value of a Portfolio shall
be deemed to be the net asset value of such Portfolio as of the
close of business on the last day on which such calculation was
made for the purpose of the foregoing computations.

 6.  Subject to applicable statutes and regulations, it is
understood that trustees, officers or agents of the Fund are or
may be interested in the Adviser as officers, directors, agents,
shareholders or otherwise, and that the officers, directors,
shareholders and agents of the Adviser may be interested in the
Fund otherwise than as a trustee, officer or agent.

                                4


<PAGE>   5

 7.  The Adviser shall not be liable for any error of judgment or
of law or for any loss suffered by the Fund in connection with
the matters to which this Agreement relates, except loss
resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence
on the part of the Adviser in the performance of its obligations
and duties or by reason of its reckless disregard of its
obligations and duties under this Agreement.

 8.  This Agreement shall become effective with respect to the
Initial Portfolio on the date hereof and shall remain in full
force until March 1, 1998, unless sooner terminated as
hereinafter provided.  This Agreement shall continue in force
from year to year thereafter with respect to each Portfolio, but
only as long as such continuance is specifically approved for
each Portfolio at least annually in the manner required by the
Investment Company Act of 1940 and the rules and regulations
thereunder; provided, however, that if the continuation of this
Agreement is not approved for a Portfolio, the Adviser may
continue to serve in such capacity for such Portfolio in the
manner and to the extent permitted by the Investment Company Act
of 1940 and the rules and regulations thereunder.

     This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of
its assignment and may be terminated at any time without the
payment of any penalty by the Fund or by the Adviser on sixty
(60) days written notice to the other party.  The Fund may effect
termination with respect to any Portfolio by action of the Board
of Trustees or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting
securities of such Portfolio.

     This Agreement may be terminated with respect to any
Portfolio at any time without the payment of any penalty by the
Board of Trustees or by vote of a majority of the outstanding
voting securities of such Portfolio in the event that it shall
have been established by a court of competent jurisdiction that
the Adviser or any officer or director of the Adviser has taken
any action which results in a breach of the covenants of the
Adviser set forth herein.

     The terms "assignment" and "vote of a majority of the
outstanding voting securities" shall have the meanings set forth
in the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the rules and
regulations thereunder.

     Termination of this Agreement shall not affect the right of
the Adviser to receive payments on any unpaid balance of the
compensation described in Section 3 earned prior to such
termination.

 9.  If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or made
invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the
remainder shall not be thereby affected.

10.  Any notice under this Agreement shall be in writing,
addressed and delivered or mailed, postage prepaid, to the other
party at such address as such other party may designate for the
receipt of such notice.

11.  All parties hereto are expressly put on notice of the Fund's
Agreement and Declaration of Trust and all amendments thereto,
all of which are on file with the Secretary of The Commonwealth
of Massachusetts, and the limitation of shareholder and trustee
liability contained therein.  This Agreement has been executed by
and on behalf of the Fund by its representatives as such
representatives and not individually, and the obligations of the
Fund hereunder are not binding upon any of the trustees,
officers, or shareholders of the Fund individually but are
binding upon only the assets and property of the Fund.  With
respect to any claim by the Adviser for recovery of that portion
of the investment management fee (or any other liability of the
Fund arising hereunder) allocated to a particular Portfolio,
whether in accordance with the express terms hereof or otherwise,
the Adviser shall have recourse solely against the assets of that
Portfolio to satisfy such claim and shall have no recourse
against the assets of any other Portfolio for such purpose.

12.  This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with
applicable federal law and (except as to Section 11 hereof which
shall be construed in accordance with the laws of The
Commonwealth of Massachusetts) the laws of the State of Illinois.

         UNDERWRITING AND DISTRIBUTION SERVICES AGREEMENT

    AGREEMENT made this _______ day of ___________, 199_,
between KEMPER ASIAN GROWTH FUND, a Massachusetts business trust
(the "Fund"), and KEMPER DISTRIBUTORS, INC., a Delaware
corporation ("KDI").

     In consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter
contained, it is hereby agreed by and between the parties hereto
as follows:

 1.  The Fund hereby appoints KDI to act as agent for the
distribution of shares of beneficial interest (hereinafter called
"shares") of the Fund in jurisdictions wherein shares of the Fund
may legally be offered for sale; provided, however, that the Fund
in its absolute discretion may (a) issue or sell shares directly
to holders of shares of the Fund upon such terms and conditions
and for such consideration, if any, as it may determine, whether
in connection with the distribution of subscription or purchase
rights, the payment or reinvestment of dividends or
distributions, or otherwise; or (b) issue or sell shares at net
asset value to the shareholders of any other investment company,
for which KDI shall act as exclusive distributor, who wish to
exchange all or a portion of their investment in shares of such
other investment company for shares of the Fund.  KDI shall
appoint various financial service firms ("Firms") to provide
distribution services to investors.  The Firms shall provide such
office space and equipment, telephone facilities, personnel,
literature distribution, advertising and promotion as is
necessary or beneficial for providing information and
distribution services to existing and potential clients of the
Firms.  KDI may also provide some of the above services for the
Fund.

     KDI accepts such appointment as distributor and principal
underwriter and agrees to render such services and to assume the
obligations herein set forth for the compensation herein
provided.  KDI shall for all purposes herein provided be deemed
to be an independent contractor and, unless expressly provided
herein or otherwise authorized, shall have no authority to act
for or represent the Fund in any way.  KDI, by separate agreement
with the Fund, may also serve the Fund in other capacities.  The
services of KDI to the Fund under this Agreement are not to be
deemed exclusive, and KDI shall be free to render similar
services or other services to others so long as its services
hereunder are not impaired thereby.

     In carrying out its duties and responsibilities hereunder,
KDI will, pursuant to separate written contracts, appoint various

<PAGE>   2


Firms to provide advertising, promotion and other distribution
services contemplated hereunder directly to or for the benefit of
existing and potential shareholders who may be clients of such
Firms.  Such Firms shall at all times be deemed to be independent
contractors retained by KDI and not the Fund.

     KDI shall use its best efforts with reasonable promptness to
sell such part of the authorized shares of the Fund remaining
unissued as from time to time shall be effectively registered
under the Securities Act of 1933 ("Securities Act"), at prices
determined as hereinafter provided and on terms hereinafter set
forth, all subject to applicable federal and state laws and
regulations and to the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of the
Fund.

2.  KDI shall sell shares of the Fund to or through qualified
Firms in such manner, not inconsistent with the provisions hereof
and the then effective registration statement (and related
prospectus) of the Fund under the Securities Act, as KDI may
determine from time to time, provided that no Firm or other
person shall be appointed or authorized to act as agent of the
Fund without the prior consent of the Fund.  In addition to sales
made by it as agent of the Fund, KDI may, in its discretion, also
sell shares of the Fund as principal to persons with whom it does
not have selling group agreements.

     Shares of any class of any series of the Fund offered for
sale or sold by KDI shall be so offered or sold at a price per
share determined in accordance with the then current prospectus.
The price the Fund shall receive for all shares purchased from it
shall be the net asset value used in determining the public
offering price applicable to the sale of such shares.  Any excess
of the sales price over the net asset value of the shares of the
Fund sold by KDI as agent shall be retained by KDI as a
commission for its services hereunder.  KDI may compensate Firms
for sales of shares at the commission levels provided in the
Fund's prospectus from time to time.  KDI may pay other
commissions, fees or concessions to Firms, and may pay them to
others in its discretion, in such amounts as KDI shall determine
from time to time.  KDI shall be entitled to receive and retain
any applicable contingent deferred sales charge as described in
the Fund's prospectus.  KDI shall also receive any distribution
services fee payable by the Fund as provided in Section 8 hereof.

     KDI will require each Firm to conform to the provisions
hereof and the Registration Statement (and related prospectus) at
the time in effect under the Securities Act with respect to the
public offering price or net asset value, as applicable, of the
Fund's shares, and neither KDI nor any such Firms shall withhold
the placing of purchase orders so as to make a profit thereby.

                               2


<PAGE>   3

 3.  The Fund will use its best efforts to keep effectively
registered under the Securities Act for sale as herein
contemplated such shares as KDI shall reasonably request and as
the Securities and Exchange Commission shall permit to be so
registered.  Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Fund
may terminate, suspend or withdraw the offering of shares
whenever, in its sole discretion, it deems such action to be
desirable.

 4.  The Fund will execute any and all documents and furnish any
and all information that may be reasonably necessary in
connection with the qualification of its shares for sale
(including the qualification of the Fund as a dealer where
necessary or advisable) in such states as KDI may reasonably
request (it being understood that the Fund shall not be required
without its consent to comply with any requirement which in its
opinion is unduly burdensome).  The Fund will furnish to KDI from
time to time such information with respect to the Fund and its
shares as KDI may reasonably request for use in connection with
the sale of shares of the Fund.

 5.  KDI shall issue and deliver or shall arrange for various
Firms to issue and deliver on behalf of the Fund such
confirmations of sales made by it pursuant to this agreement as
may be required.  At or prior to the time of issuance of shares,
KDI will pay or cause to be paid to the Fund the amount due the
Fund for the sale of such shares.  Certificates shall be issued
or shares registered on the transfer books of the Fund in such
names and denominations as KDI may specify.

 6.  KDI shall order shares of the Fund from the Fund only to the
extent that it shall have received purchase orders therefor.  KDI
will not make, or authorize Firms or others to make (a) any short
sales of shares of the Fund; or (b) any sales of such shares to
any trustee or officer of the Fund or to any officer or director
of KDI or of any corporation or association furnishing investment
advisory, managerial or supervisory services to the Fund, or to
any corporation or association, unless such sales are made in
accordance with the then current prospectus relating to the sale
of such shares.  KDI, as agent of and for the account of the
Fund, may repurchase the shares of the Fund at such prices and
upon such terms and conditions as shall be specified in the
current prospectus of the Fund.  In selling or reacquiring shares
of the Fund for the account of the Fund, KDI will in all respects
conform to the requirements of all state and federal laws and the
Rules of Fair Practice of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc., relating to such sale or reacquisition, as the
case may be, and will indemnify and save harmless the Fund from
any damage or expense on account of any wrongful act by KDI or
any employee, representative or agent of KDI.  KDI will observe
and be bound by all the provisions of the Agreement and
Declaration of Trust of the Fund (and of any fundamental policies

                                3
<PAGE>   4

adopted by the Fund pursuant to the Investment Company Act of
1940, notice of which shall have been given to KDI) which at the
time in any way require, limit, restrict, prohibit or otherwise
regulate any action of the part of KDI hereunder.

 7.  The Fund shall assume and pay all charges and expenses of
its operations not specifically assumed or otherwise to be
provided by KDI under this Agreement.  The Fund will pay or cause
to be paid expenses (including the fees and disbursements of its
own counsel) of any registration of the Fund and its shares under
the United States securities laws and expenses incident to the
issuance of shares of beneficial interest, such as the cost of
share certificates, issue taxes, and fees of the transfer agent.
KDI will pay all expenses (other than expenses which one or more
Firms may bear pursuant to any agreement with KDI) incident to
the sale and distribution of the shares issued or sold hereunder,
including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all
(a) expenses of printing and distributing any prospectus and of
preparing, printing and distributing or disseminating any other
literature, advertising and selling aids in connection with the
offering of the shares for sale (except that such expenses need
not include expenses incurred by the Fund in connection with the
preparation, typesetting, printing and distribution of any
registration statement or prospectus, report or other
communication to shareholders in their capacity as such), (b)
expenses of advertising in connection with such offering and (c)
expenses (other than the Fund's auditing expenses) of qualifying
or continuing the qualification of the shares for sale and, in
connection therewith, of qualifying or continuing the
qualification of the Fund as a dealer or broker under the laws of
such states as may be designated by KDI under the conditions
herein specified.  No transfer taxes, if any, which may be
payable in connection with the issue or delivery of shares sold
as herein contemplated or of the certificates for such shares
shall be borne by the Fund, and KDI will indemnify and hold
harmless the Fund against liability for all such transfer taxes.

 8.  For the services and facilities described herein in
connection with Class B shares and Class C shares of each series
of the Fund, the Fund will pay to KDI at the end of each calendar
month a distribution services fee computed at the annual rate of
 .75% of average daily net assets attributable to the Class B
shares and Class C shares of each such series.  For the month and
year in which this Agreement becomes effective or terminates,
there shall be an appropriate proration on the basis of the
number of days that the Agreement is in effect during the month
and year, respectively.  The foregoing fee shall be in addition
to and shall not be reduced or offset by the amount of any
contingent deferred sales charge received by KDI under Section 2
hereof.
                                      4


<PAGE>   5

     The net asset value shall be calculated in accordance with
the provisions of the Fund's current prospectus.  On each day
when net asset value is not calculated, the net asset value of a
share of any class of any series of the Fund shall be deemed to
be the net asset value of such a share as of the close of
business on the last previous day on which such calculation was
made. The distribution services fee for any class of a series of
the Fund shall be based upon average daily net assets of the
series attributable to the class and such fee shall be charged
only to such class.

 9.  KDI shall prepare reports for the Board of Trustees of the
Fund on a quarterly basis in connection with the Fund's
distribution plan for Class B shares and Class C shares showing
amounts paid to the various Firms and such other information as
from time to time shall be reasonably requested by the Board of
Trustees.

10.  To the extent applicable, this Agreement constitutes the
plan for the Class B shares and Class C shares of each series of
the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act
of 1940; and this Agreement and plan shall be approved and
renewed in accordance with Rule 12b-1 for such Class B shares and
Class C shares separately.

     This Agreement shall become effective on the date hereof and
shall continue until one year thereafter; and shall continue from
year to year thereafter only so long as such continuance is
approved in the manner required by the Investment Company Act of
1940.

     This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of
its assignment and may be terminated at any time without the
payment of any penalty by the Fund or by KDI on sixty (60) days
written notice to the other party.  The Fund may effect
termination with respect to any class of any series of the Fund
by a vote of (i) a majority of the Board of Trustees, (ii) a
majority of the trustees who are not interested persons of the
Fund and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in
this Agreement or in any agreement related to this Agreement, or
(iii) a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the
class.  Without prejudice to any other remedies of the Fund, the
Fund may terminate this Agreement at any time immediately upon
KDI's failure to fulfill any of its obligations hereunder.

     This Agreement may not be amended to increase the amount to
be paid to KDI by the Fund for services hereunder with respect to
a class of any series of the Fund without the vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities of such class.  All material
amendments to this Agreement must in any event be approved by a
vote of the Board of Trustees of the Fund including the trustees
who are not interested persons of the Fund and who have no direct

                                5


<PAGE>   6

or indirect financial interest in this Agreement or in any
agreement related to this Agreement, cast in person at a meeting
called for such purpose.

     The terms "assignment", "interested" and "vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities" shall have the meanings set
forth in the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the rules and
regulations thereunder.

     Termination of this Agreement shall not affect the right of
KDI to receive payments on any unpaid balance of the compensation
described in Section 8 earned prior to such termination.

11.  KDI will not use or distribute, or authorize the use,
distribution or dissemination by Firms or others in connection
with the sale of Fund shares any statements other than those
contained in the Fund's current prospectus, except such
supplemental literature or advertising as shall be lawful under
federal and state securities laws and regulations.  KDI will
furnish the Fund with copies of all such material.

12.  If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or made
invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the
remainder shall not be thereby affected.

13.  Any notice under this Agreement shall be in writing,
addressed and delivered or mailed, postage prepaid, to the other
party at such address as such other party may designate for the
receipt of such notice.

14.  All parties hereto are expressly put on notice of the Fund's
Agreement and Declaration of Trust, and all amendments thereto,
all of which are on file with the Secretary of The Commonwealth
of Massachusetts, and the limitation of shareholder and trustee
liability contained therein.  This Agreement has been executed by
and on behalf of the Fund by its representatives as such
representatives and not individually, and the obligations of the
Fund hereunder are not binding upon any of the Trustees, officers
or shareholders of the Fund individually but are binding upon
only the assets and property of the Fund.  With respect to any
claim by KDI for recovery of any liability of the Fund arising
hereunder allocated to a particular series or class, whether in
accordance with the express terms hereof or otherwise, KDI shall
have recourse solely against the assets of that series or class
to satisfy such claim and shall have no recourse against the
assets of any other series or class for such purpose.

15.  This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with
applicable federal law and (except as to Section 14 hereof which
shall be construed in accordance with the laws of The
Commonwealth of Massachusetts) the laws of the State of Illinois.

relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
agreements between the parties relating to the subject matter
hereof.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Fund and KDI have caused this
Agreement to be executed as of the day and year first above
written.

SELLING GROUP AGREEMENT KEMPER DISTRIBUTORS, INC.
120 South LaSalle Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603

Dear Financial Services Firm:

     As principal underwriter and distributor, we invite you to
join a Selling Group for the distribution of shares of the Kemper
Mutual Funds (herein called "Funds"), but only in those states in
which the shares of the respective Funds may legally be offered
for sale. As exclusive agent of each of the Funds, we offer to
sell to you shares of the Funds on the following terms:
     1.  In all sales of these shares to the public you shall act
as dealer for your own account, and in no transaction shall you
have any authority to  act as agent for the issuer, for us, or
for any other member of the Selling Group.
     2. Orders received from you will be accepted by us only at
the public offering price applicable to each order, as
established by the Prospectus of each Fund, subject to the
discount, commission or other concession, if any, as provided in
such Prospectus.  Upon receipt from you of any order to purchase
shares of a Fund, we shall confirm to you in writing or by wire
to be followed by a confirmation in writing. Additional
instructions may be forwarded to you from time to time.  All
orders are subject to acceptance or rejection by us in our sole
discretion.
     3. You may offer and sell shares to your customers only at
the public offering price determined in the manner described in
the applicable Prospectus. The public offering price is the net
asset value per share as provided in the applicable Prospectus
plus, with respect to certain Funds, a sales charge from which
you shall receive a discount equal to a percentage of the
applicable offering price as provided in the applicable
Prospectus. You shall receive a sales commission, with respect to
certain Funds, equal to a percentage of the amount invested as
provided in the applicable Prospectus. You shall receive a
distribution service fee, for certain Funds for which such fees
are available, as provided in the applicable Prospectus which fee
shall be payable with respect to such assets, for such periods
and at such intervals as are from time to time specified by us.
The discounts or other concessions to which you may be entitled
in connection with sales to your customers pursuant to any
special features of a Fund (such as cumulative discounts, letters
of intent, etc., the terms of which shall be as described in the
applicable Prospectus and related forms) shall be in accordance
with the terms of such features. You may receive an
administrative service fee, with respect to certain Funds for
which such fees are available, as provided in the applicable
Prospectus, which fee shall be payable with respect to such


<PAGE>   2


assets, for such periods and at such intervals as are from time
to time specified by us.
     4.  By accepting this agreement, you agree:
         (a)  To purchase shares only from us or from your
customers.
         (b)  That you will purchase shares from us only to cover
purchase orders already received from your customers, or for your
own bona fide investments.
         (c)  That you will not purchase shares from your
customers at a price lower than the bid price then quoted by or
for the Fund involved.  You may, however, sell shares for the
account of your customer to the Fund, or to us as agent for the
Fund, at the bid price currently quoted by or for the Fund and
charge your customer a fair commission for handling the
transaction.
         (d)  That you will not withhold placing with us orders
received from your customers so as to profit yourself as a result
of such withholding.
     5.  We will not accept from you any conditional orders for
shares.
     6.  If any shares confirmed to you under the terms of this
agreement are repurchased by the issuing Fund or by us as agent
for the Fund, or are tendered for repurchase, within seven
business days after the date of our confirmation of the original
purchase order, you shall forthwith refund to us the full
discount, commission, finder's fee or other concession, if any,
allowed or paid to you on such shares.
     7.  Payment for shares ordered from us shall be in New York
clearing house funds and must be received by the appropriate
Fund's shareholder service agent within seven days after our
acceptance of your order (or such shorter time period as may be
required by applicable regulations). If such payment is not
received, we reserve the right, without notice, forthwith to
cancel the sale or, at our option, to sell the shares ordered
back to the Fund, in which case we may hold you responsible for
any loss, including loss of profit suffered by us as a result of
your failure to make such payment.
     8.  Shares sold to you hereunder shall be available in
negotiable form for delivery at the appropriate Fund's
shareholder services agent, against payment, unless other
instructions have been given.
     9.  All sales will be made subject to our receipt of shares
from the Fund. We reserve the right, in our discretion, without
notice, to suspend sales or withdraw the offering of shares
entirely. We reserve the right to modify, cancel or change the
terms of this agreement, upon 15 days prior written notice to
you.  Also, the sales charges, discounts, commissions or other
concessions, service fees of any kind provided for hereunder are
subject to change at any time by the Funds and us.
     10. All communications to us should be sent to the address
in the heading above. Any notice to you shall be duly given if
mailed or telegraphed to you at the address specified by you
below.

     11. This agreement shall be construed in accordance with the
laws of Illinois. This agreement is subject to the Prospectuses
of the Funds from time to time in effect, and, in the event of a
conflict, the terms of the Prospectuses shall control. References
herein to the "Prospectus" of a Fund shall mean the prospectus
and statement of additional information of such Fund as from time
to time in effect. Any changes, modifications or additions
reflected in any such Prospectus shall be effective on the date
of such Prospectus (or supplement thereto) unless specified
otherwise.

and Conditions on the reverse side hereof, all of which are a

              ADDITIONAL STIPULATIONS AND CONDITIONS

     13. No person is authorized to make any representations
concerning shares of any Fund except those contained in the
Prospectus of such Fund and in printed information subsequently
issued by the Fund or by us as information supplemental to such
Prospectus. If you wish to use your own advertising with respect
to a Fund, all such advertising must be approved by us or by the
Fund prior to use. You shall be responsible for any required
filing of such advertising.
     14. Your acceptance of this agreement constitutes a
representation (i) that you are a registered security dealer and
a member in good standing of the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. and that you agree to comply with all
state and federal laws, rules and regulations applicable to
transactions hereunder and to the Rules of Fair Practice of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., including
specifically Section 26, Article III thereof, or (ii) if you are
offering and selling shares of the Funds only in jurisdictions
outside of the several states, territories and possessions of the
United States and are not otherwise required to be a member of
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., that you
nevertheless agree to conduct your business in accordance with
the spirit of the Rules of Fair Practice of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., and to observe the laws
and regulations of the applicable jurisdiction. You likewise
agree that you will not offer to sell shares of any Fund in any
state or other jurisdiction in which they may not lawfully be
offered for sale.
     15. You shall make available an investment management
account for your customers through the Funds and shall provide
such office space and equipment, telephone facilities, personnel
and literature distribution as is necessary or appropriate for
providing information and services to your customer. Such
services and assistance may include, but not be limited to,
establishment and maintenance of shareholder accounts and
records, processing purchase and redemption transactions,
answering routine inquiries regarding the Funds, and such other
services as may be agreed upon from time to time and as may be
permitted by applicable statute, rule, or regulation. You agree
to release, indemnify and hold harmless the Funds, us and our
respective representatives and agents from any and all direct or
indirect liabilities or losses resulting from requests,
directions, actions or inactions of or by you, your officers,
employees or agents regarding the purchase, redemption or
transfer of registration of shares of the Funds for accounts of
you, your customers and other shareholders or from any
unauthorized or improper use of any on-line computer facilities.
You shall prepare such periodic reports for us as shall
reasonably be requested by us. You shall immediately inform the
Funds or us of all written complaints received by you from Fund
shareholders relating to the maintenance of their accounts and
shall promptly answer all such complaints and other similar
correspondence. You shall provide the Funds and us on a timely
<PAGE>   5



basis with such information as may be required to complete
various regulatory forms.
     16. As a result of the necessity to compute the amount of
any contingent deferred sales charge due with respect to the
redemption of shares, you may not hold shares of a Fund imposing
such a charge in an account registered in your name or in the
name of your nominee for the benefit of certain of your customers
except with our prior written consent. Except as otherwise
permitted by us, shares of such a Fund owned by a shareholder
must be in a separate identifiable account for such shareholder.
     17. Shares of certain Funds have been divided into separate
classes: Class A Shares, Class B Shares and Class C Shares.
Class A shares are offered at net asset value plus an initial
sales charge. Class B Shares are offered at net asset value
without an initial sales charge but are subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge and a Rule 12b-1 fee and have a conversion
feature. Class C Shares are offered at net asset value without an
initial sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge but are
subject to a Rule 12b-1 fee and have no conversion feature.
Please see the appropriate Prospectuses for a more complete
description of the distinctions between the classes of shares.
     It is important to investors not only to choose Funds
appropriate for their investment objectives, but also to choose
the appropriate distribution arrangement, based on the amount
invested and the expected duration of the investment. To assist
investors in these decisions, we have instituted the following
policies with respect to orders for shares of the Funds. The
following policies and procedures with respect to sales of
classes of shares of the Funds apply to each broker/dealer that
distributes shares of the Funds.
     1.  All purchase orders for $500,000 or more (not including
street name or omnibus accounts) should be for class A Shares.
     2.  Any purchase order of less than $500,000 may be for
either Class A, Class B or Class C Shares in light of the
relevant facts and circumstances, including:
         a.  the specific purchase order dollar amount;
         b.  the length of time the investor expects to hold the
shares; and
         c.  any other relevant circumstances such as the
availability of purchases under a Letter of Intent, Combined
Purchases or Cumulative Discount Privilege.
     There are instances when one pricing structure may be more
appropriate than another. For example, investors who would
qualify for a reduced sales charge on Class A Shares may
determine that payment of a reduced front-end sales charge is
preferable to payment of an ongoing Rule 12b-1 fee. On the other
hand, investors whose orders would not qualify for such a
discount and who plan to hold their investment for more than six
years may wish to defer the sales charge and would consider Class
B Shares. Investors who prefer not to pay an initial sales charge
and who plan to redeem their shares within six years might
consider Class C Shares.
     Appropriate supervisory personnel within your organization
must ensure that all employees receiving investor inquiries about



<PAGE>   6
the purchase of shares of the Funds advise the investor of the
available pricing structures offered by the Funds and the impact
of choosing one method over another, including breakpoints and
the availability of Letters of Intent, Combined Purchases and
Cumulative Discounts.  In some instances it may be appropriate
for a supervisory person to discuss a purchase with the investor.

     18. This agreement shall be in substitution of any prior
selling group agreement between you and us regarding these
shares. This agreement shall not be applicable to the provision
of services for Cash Equivalent Fund, Tax-Exempt California Money
Market Fund, Tax Exempt New York Money Market Fund, Investors
Cash Trust and similar wholesale money market funds. The payment
of related distribution and services fees, shall be subject to
separate services agreements.

     All Fund's securities and monies, except as permitted by the
     Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act"), will be
     delivered either to Custodian or to The Chase Manhattan
     Bank, pursuant to a separate custody agreement.  Fund will

     into its possession during the time this Agreement shall
     continue in effect.  Custodian shall have no responsibility
     or liability whatsoever for or on account of securities or
     monies not so delivered.  All securities so delivered to
     Custodian (other than bearer securities) shall be registered
     in the name of Fund or its nominee, or of a nominee of
     Custodian, or shall be properly endorsed and in form for
     transfer satisfactory to Custodian.

          B.   Safekeeping

          Custodian will receive delivery of and keep safely the
     assets of Fund delivered to it from time to time.  Custodian
     will not deliver any such assets to any person except as
     permitted by the provisions of this Agreement or any
     agreement executed by it according to the terms of this
     Agreement.  Custodian shall be responsible only for the
     monies and securities of Fund held directly by it or its
     nominees or sub-custodian under this Agreement; provided
     that Custodian's responsibility for any sub-custodian
     appointed at the Fund's direction for purposes of (i)
     effecting third-party repurchase transactions with banks,
     brokers, dealers, or other entities through the use of a
     common custodian or sub-custodian; or (ii) providing
     depository and clearing agency services with respect to
     certain variable rate demand note securities ("special sub-
     custodian") shall be further limited as set forth in this
     Agreement.  Custodian may participate directly or
     indirectly through a sub-custodian in the Depository Trust
     Company, the  Treasury/Federal Reserve Book Entry System,
     the Participants Trust Company and any other securities
     depository approved by the Board of Trustees of the Fund,
     subject to compliance with the provisions of Rule 17f-4
     under the 1940 Act including, without limitation, the

                                2

     specific provisions of subsections (a) (1) through (d) (4)
     thereof.

          C.   Registration of Securities

     Custodian will hold stocks and other registerable portfolio
     securities of Fund registered in the name of Fund or in the
     name of any nominee of Custodian for whose fidelity and
     liabilities Custodian shall be fully responsible, or in
     street certificate form, so-called, with or without any
     indication of fiduciary capacity.  Unless otherwise
     instructed, Custodian will register all such portfolio
     securities in the name of its authorized nominee.

           D.  Exchange of Securities

          Upon receipt of instructions, Custodian will exchange,
     or cause to be exchanged, portfolio securities held by it
     for the account of Fund for other securities or cash issued

     recapitalization, merger, consolidation, split-up of shares,
     change of par value, conversion or otherwise, and will
     deposit any such securities in accordance with the terms of
     any reorganization or protective plan.  Without instructions,
     Custodian is authorized to exchange securities held by it in
     temporary form for securities in definitive form, to effect
     an exchange of shares when the par value of the stock is
     changed, and, upon receiving payment therefore, to surrender
     bonds or other securities held by it at maturity or when
     advised of earlier call for redemption, except that
     Custodian shall receive instructions prior to surrendering
     any convertible security.

          E.   Purchases or Sales of Investments of Fund

          Fund shall, on each business day on which a purchase or

     but only insofar as monies are available therein for such
     purpose, and receive the portfolio securities so purchased
     by or for the account of Fund. Such payment shall be made
     only upon receipt by Custodian of the securities so
     purchased in form for transfer satisfactory to Custodian.

     In accordance with such sales instructions, Custodian will
     deliver or cause to be delivered the securities thus
     designated as sold for the account of Fund to the broker or
     other person specified in the instructions relating to such
     sale, such delivery to be made only upon receipt of payment
     therefor in such form as shall be satisfactory to Custodian,
     with the understanding that Custodian may deliver or cause
     to be delivered securities for payment in accordance  with
     the customs prevailing among dealers in securities.

     instructions, and that Fund will retain the right to any
     dividends, interest or distribution on such loaned

     securities, Custodian will release the cash collateral to
     the borrower.

          H.   Routine Matters

          Custodian will, in general, attend to all routine and

     additional demand deposit account or accounts in such other
     banks or trust companies as may be designated in such
     resolution, such accounts, however, to be in the name of
     Custodian and subject only to its draft or order.

         J.   Income and Other Payments to Fund

          Custodian will:

          (1)  collect, claim and receive and deposit for the
     account of Fund all income and other payments which become
     due and payable on or after the effective date of this
     Agreement with respect to the securities deposited under
     this Agreement, and credit the account of Fund with such
     income on the payable date;

          (2)  execute ownership and other certificates and
     affidavits for all federal, state and local tax purposes in
     connection with the collection of bond and note coupons; and

          (3)  take such other action as may be necessary or
     proper in connection with:

          (a)  the collection, receipt and deposit of such income
          and other payments, including but not limited to the
          presentation for payment of:

          (1)  all coupons and other income items requiring
               presentation;

          (2)  all other securities which may mature or be
               called, redeemed, retired or otherwise become
               payable and regarding which the Custodian has
               actual knowledge, or notice of which is contained
               in publications of the type to which it normally
               subscribes for such purpose; and

          (b)  the endorsement for collection, in the name of
               Fund, of all checks, drafts or other negotiable
               instruments.

          Custodian, however, shall not be required to institute
     suit or take other extraordinary action to enforce
     collection except upon receipt of instructions and upon
     being indemnified to its satisfaction against the costs and
     expenses of such suit or other actions.  Custodian will
     receive, claim and collect all stock dividends, rights and
     other similar items and deal with the same pursuant to
     instructions.  Unless prior instructions have been  received
     to the contrary, Custodian will, without further
     instructions, sell any rights held for the account of Fund
     on the last trade date prior to the date of expiration of
     such rights.

                               7

          K.   Payment of Dividends and Other Distributions

          On the declaration of any dividend or other
     distribution on the shares of beneficial interest of any
     Portfolio ("Portfolio Shares") by the Board of Trustees of
     Fund, Fund shall deliver to Custodian instructions with
     respect thereto, including a copy of the Resolution of said
     Board of Trustees certified by the Secretary or an Assistant
     Secretary of Fund wherein there shall be set forth the
     record date as of which shareholders are entitled to receive
     such dividend or distribution, and the amount payable per
     share on such dividend or distribution.

          On the date specified in such Resolution for the
     payment of such dividend or other distribution, Custodian
     shall pay out of the monies held for the account of Fund,
     insofar as the same shall be available for such purposes,
     and credit to the account of the Dividend Disbursing Agent
     for Fund, such amount as may be necessary to pay the amount
     per share payable in cash on Portfolio Shares issued and
     outstanding on the record date established by such
     Resolution.

          L.   Portfolio Shares Purchased by Fund

          Whenever any Portfolio Shares are purchased by Fund,
     Fund or its agent shall advise Custodian of the aggregate
     dollar amount to be paid for such shares and shall confirm
     such advice in writing.  Upon receipt of such advice,
     Custodian shall charge such aggregate dollar amount to the
     custody account of Fund and either deposit the same in  the
     account maintained for the purpose of paying for the
     purchase of Portfolio Shares or deliver the same in
     accordance with such advice.

          M.   Portfolio Shares Purchased from Fund

          Whenever Portfolio Shares are purchased from Fund, Fund
     will deposit or cause to be deposited with Custodian the
     amount received for such shares.  Custodian shall not have
     any duty or responsibility to determine that Fund Shares
     purchased from Fund have been added to the proper
     shareholder account or accounts or that the proper number of
     such shares have been added to the shareholder records.

          N.   Proxies and Notices

          Custodian will promptly deliver or mail to Fund all
     proxies properly signed, all notices of meetings, all proxy
     statements and other notices, requests or announcements
     affecting or relating to securities held by Custodian for
     Fund and will, upon receipt of instructions, execute and

                                8
<PAGE>   9



     deliver or cause its nominee to execute and deliver such
     proxies or other authorizations as may be required.  Except
     as provided by this Agreement or pursuant to instructions
     hereafter received by Custodian, neither it nor its nominee
     shall exercise any power inherent in any such securities,
     including any power to vote the same, or execute any proxy,
     power of attorney, or other similar instrument voting any of
     such securities, or give any consent, approval or waiver
     with respect thereto, or take any other similar action.

          O.   Disbursements

          Custodian will pay or cause to be paid insofar as funds
     are available for the purpose, bills, statements and other
     obligations of Fund (including but not limited to
     obligations in connection with the conversion, exchange or
     surrender of securities owned by Fund, interest charges,
     variation margin, dividend disbursements, taxes, management
     fees, administration-distribution fees, custodian fees,
     legal fees, auditors' fees, transfer agents' fees, brokerage
     commissions, compensation to personnel, and other operating
     expenses of Fund) pursuant to instructions of Fund setting
     forth the name of the person to whom payment is to be made,
     the amount of the payment, and the purpose of the payment.

          P.   Books, Records and Accounts

          Custodian acknowledges that all the records it shall
     prepare and maintain pursuant to this Agreement shall be the
     property of Fund and that upon request of Fund it shall make
     Fund's records available to it, along with such other
     information and data as are reasonably requested by Fund,
     for inspection, audit or copying, or turn said records over
     to Fund.

          Custodian shall, within a reasonable time, render to
     Fund as of the close of business on each day, a detailed
     statement of the amounts received or paid and of securities
     received or delivered for the account of Fund during said
     day.  Custodian shall, from time to time, upon request by
     Fund, render a detailed statement of the securities and
     monies held for Fund under this Agreement, and Custodian
     shall maintain such books and records as are necessary to
     enable it do so and shall permit such persons as are
     authorized by Fund, including Fund's independent public
     accountants, to examine such records or to confirm the
     contents of such records; and, if demanded, shall permit
     federal and state regulatory agencies to examine said
     securities, books and records.  Upon the written
     instructions of Fund or as demanded by federal or state
     regulatory agencies, Custodian shall instruct any sub-
     custodian to permit such persons as are authorized by Fund

                                9
<PAGE>   10



     to examine the books, records and securities held by such
     sub-custodian which relate to Fund.

          Q.   Appointment of Sub-Custodian

          Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement,
     all or any of the monies or securities of Fund may be held
     in Custodian's own custody or in the custody of one or more
     other banks or trust companies acting as sub-custodians as
     may be approved by resolutions of Fund's Board of Trustees,
     evidenced by a copy thereof certified by the Secretary or
     Assistant Secretary of Fund.  Any sub-custodian must  have
     the qualifications required for custodians under the 1940
     Act unless exempted therefrom.  Any sub-custodian may
     participate directly or indirectly in the Depository Trust
     Company, the Treasury/Reserve Book Entry System, the
     Participants Trust Company and any other securities
     depository approved by the Board of Trustees of the Fund to
     the same extent and subject to the same conditions as
     provided hereunder.  Neither Custodian nor sub-custodian
     shall be entitled to reimbursement by Fund for any fees or
     expenses of any sub-custodian; provided that Custodian shall
     not be liable for, and Fund shall hold Custodian harmless
     from, the expenses of any special sub-custodian.  The
     appointment of a sub-custodian shall not relieve Custodian
     of any of its obligations hereunder; provided that Custodian
     shall be responsible to Fund for any loss, damage, or
     expense suffered or incurred by Fund resulting from the
     actions or omissions of a special sub-custodian only to the
     extent the special sub-custodian is liable to Custodian.

          R.   Multiple Portfolios

          If Fund shall issue shares of more than one Portfolio
     during the term hereof, Custodian agrees that all securities
     and other assets of Fund shall be segregated by Portfolio
     and all books and records, account values or actions shall
     be maintained, held, made or taken, as the case may be,
     separately for each Portfolio.

          S.   Other Custodian

          Pursuant to instructions, Custodian will transmit
     securities and moneys of Fund to The Chase Manhattan Bank,
     as custodian for Fund.

      4.  INSTRUCTIONS.

          A.   The term "instructions", as used herein, means
     written or oral instructions to Custodian from an authorized
     person of Fund.  Certified copies of resolutions of the
     Board of Trustees of Fund naming one or more persons

                                10
<PAGE>   11



     authorized to give instructions in the name and on behalf of
     Fund may be received and accepted by Custodian as conclusive
     evidence of the authority of any person so to act and may be
     considered to be in full force and effect (and Custodian
     shall be fully protected in acting in reliance thereon)
     until receipt by Custodian of notice to the contrary.
     Unless the resolution authorizing any person to give
     instructions specifically requires that the approval of
     anyone else shall first have been obtained, Custodian shall
     be under no obligation to inquire into the right of the
     person giving such instructions to do so.  Notwithstanding
     any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 4, no
     authorizations or instructions received by Custodian from
     Fund shall be deemed to authorize or permit any trustee,
     officer, employee, or agent of Fund to withdraw any of the
     securities or monies of Fund upon the mere receipt of
     instructions from such trustee, officer, employee or agent.

          B.   No later than the next business day immediately
     following each oral instruction referred to herein, Fund
     shall give Custodian written confirmation of each such oral
     instruction.  Either party may electronically record any
     oral instruction whether given in person or via telephone.

      5.  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY OF CUSTODIAN

          A.  Custodian shall hold harmless and indemnify Fund
     from and against any loss or liability arising out of
     Custodian's failure to comply with the terms of this
     Agreement or arising out of Custodian's negligence, willful
     misconduct, or bad faith.  Custodian may request and obtain
     the advice and opinion of counsel for Fund or of its own
     counsel with respect to questions or matters of law, and it
     shall be without liability to Fund for any action taken or
     omitted by it in good faith, in conformity with such advice
     or opinion.

          B.   If Fund requires Custodian in any capacity to
     take, with respect to any securities, any action which
     involves the payment of money by it, or which in Custodian's
     opinion might make it or its nominee liable for payment of
     monies or in any other way, Custodian shall be and be kept
     indemnified by Fund in an amount and form satisfactory to
     Custodian against any liability on account of such action.

          C.   Custodian shall be entitled to receive, and Fund
     agrees to pay to Custodian, on demand, reimbursement for
     such cash disbursements, costs and expenses as may be agreed
     upon from time to time by Custodian and Fund.

          D.   Custodian shall be protected in acting as
     custodian hereunder upon any instructions, advice, notice,

                                11
<PAGE>   12

     request, consent, certificate or other instrument or paper
     reasonably appearing to it to be genuine and to have been
     properly executed and shall, unless otherwise specifically
     provided herein, be entitled to receive as conclusive proof
     of any fact or matter required to be ascertained from Fund
     hereunder, a certificate signed by Fund's President, or
     other officer specifically authorized for such purpose.

          E.   Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
     Custodian shall be under no duty or obligation to inquire
     into, and shall not be liable for:

               (1)  The validity of the issue of any securities
          purchased by or for Fund, the legality of the purchase
          thereof or evidence of ownership required by Fund to be
          received by Custodian, or the propriety of the decision
          to purchase or amount paid therefor;

               (2)  The legality of the sales of any securities
          by or for Fund, or the propriety of the amount paid
          therefor;

               (3)  The legality of the issue or sale of any
          shares of Fund, or the sufficiency of the amount to be
          received therefor;

               (4)  The legality of the purchase of any shares of
          Fund, or the propriety of the amount to be paid
          therefor; or

               (5)  The legality of the declaration of any
          dividend by Fund, or the legality of the issue of any
          shares of Fund in payment of any share dividend.

          F.   Custodian shall not be liable for, or considered
     to be the custodian of, any money represented by any check,
     draft, wire transfer, clearing house funds, uncollected
     funds, or instrument for the payment of money received by it
     on behalf of Fund, until Custodian actually receives such
     money, provided only that it shall advise Fund promptly if
     it fails to receive any such money in the ordinary course of
     business, and use its best efforts and cooperate with Fund
     toward the end that such money shall be received.

          G.   Subject to the obligations of Custodian under
     Section 3.B. hereof, Custodian shall not be responsible for
     loss occasioned by the acts, neglects, defaults or
     insolvency of any broker, bank, trust company, or any other
     person with whom Custodian may deal in the absence of negli-
     gence, misconduct or bad faith on the part of Custodian.

                                12
<PAGE>   13

          H.   Custodian or any sub-custodian shall provide Fund
     for its approval by its Board of Trustees agreements with
     banks or trust companies which will act as sub-custodian for
     Fund pursuant to this Agreement; and, as set forth in
     Section 3.B hereof, Custodian shall be responsible for the
     monies and securities of the Fund held by it or its nominees
     or sub-custodians under this Agreement, but not for monies
     and securities of the Fund held by any special sub-custodian
     except to the extent the special sub-custodian is liable to
     Custodian.

      6.  COMPENSATION.

     Fund shall pay to Custodian such compensation at such times
as may from time to time be agreed upon in writing by Custodian
and Fund.  Custodian may charge such compensation against monies
held by it for the account of Fund.  Custodian shall also be
entitled, notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 5B or 5C
hereof, to charge against any monies held by it for the account
of Fund the amount of any loss, damage, liability or expense for
which it shall be entitled to reimbursement under the provisions
of this Agreement.  Custodian shall not be entitled to
reimbursement by Fund for any loss or expenses of any sub-
custodian; provided that Custodian shall not be liable for, and
Fund shall hold Custodian harmless from, the expenses of any
special sub-custodian.

      7.  TERMINATION.

     Either party to this Agreement may terminate the same by
notice in writing, delivered or mailed, postage prepaid, to the
other party hereto and received not less than sixty (60) days
prior to the date upon which such termination shall take effect.
Upon termination of this Agreement, Fund shall pay to Custodian
such compensation for its reimbursable disbursements, costs and
expenses paid or incurred to such date and Fund shall use its
best efforts to obtain a successor custodian.  Unless the holders
of a majority of the outstanding shares of Fund vote to have the
securities, funds and other properties held under this Agreement
delivered and paid over to some other person, firm or corporation
specified in the vote, having not less than Two Million Dollars
($2,000,000) aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits, as
shown by its last published report, and meeting such other
qualifications for custodian as set forth in the Bylaws of Fund,
the Board of Trustees of Fund shall, forthwith upon giving or
receiving notice of termination of this Agreement, appoint as
successor custodian a bank or trust company having such
qualifications.  Custodian shall, upon termination of this
Agreement, deliver to the successor custodian so specified or
appointed, at custodian's office, all securities then held by
Custodian hereunder, duly endorsed and in form for transfer, and
all funds and other properties of Fund deposited with or held by

                                13


<PAGE>   14

Custodian hereunder, and shall cooperate in effecting changes in
book-entries at the Depository Trust Company, the
Treasury/Federal Reserve Book-Entry System, the Participants
Trust Company and any other securities depository holding assets
of the Fund.  In the event no such vote has been adopted by the
shareholders of Fund and no written order designating a successor
custodian shall have been delivered to Custodian on or before the
date when such termination shall become effective, then Custodian
shall deliver the securities, funds and properties of Fund to a
bank or trust company at the selection of Custodian and meeting
the qualifications for custodian, if any, set forth in the Bylaws
of Fund and having not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000)
aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits, as shown by its
last published report.  Upon either such delivery to a successor
custodian, Custodian shall have no further obligations or
liabilities under this Agreement.  Thereafter such bank or trust
company shall be the successor custodian under this Agreement and
shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for its services.
In the event that no such successor custodian can be found, Fund
will submit to its shareholders, before permitting delivery of
the cash and securities owned by Fund to anyone other than a
successor custodian, the question of whether Fund shall be
liquidated or shall function without a custodian.  Not-
withstanding the foregoing requirement as to delivery upon
termination of this Agreement, Custodian may make any other
delivery of the securities, funds and property of Fund which
shall be permitted by the 1940 Act and Fund's Agreement and
Declaration of Trust and Bylaws then in effect.  Except as
otherwise provided herein, neither this Agreement nor any portion
thereof may be assigned by Custodian without the consent of Fund,
authorized or approved by a resolution of its Board of Trustees.

      8.  NOTICES.

     Notices, requests, instructions and other writings received
by Fund at 120 South LaSalle Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603 or
at such other address as Fund may have designated by certified
resolution of the Board of Trustees to Custodian and notices,
requests, instructions and other writings received by Custodian
at its offices at 21 West 10th Street, Kansas City, Missouri
64105, or to such other address as it may have designated to Fund
in writing, shall be deemed to have been properly given
hereunder.

      9.  MISCELLANEOUS.

          A.   This Agreement is executed and delivered in the
     State of Missouri and shall be governed by the laws of the
     State of Missouri (except as to Section 9.H. hereof which
     shall be governed in accordance with the laws of The
     Commonwealth of Massachusetts).

                                14
<PAGE>   15

          B.   All the terms and provisions of this Agreement
     shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be
     enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the
     parties hereto.

          C.   No provisions of the Agreement may be amended or
     modified in any manner except by a written agreement
     properly authorized and executed by both parties hereto.

          D.   The captions in this Agreement are included for
     convenience of reference only, and in no way define or
     delimit any of the provisions hereof or otherwise affect
     their construction or effect.

          E.   This Agreement shall become effective at the close
     of business on the date hereof.

          F.   This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in
     two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
     original but all of which together shall constitute one and
     the same instrument.

          G.   If any part, term or provision of this Agreement
     is by the courts held to be illegal, in conflict with any
     law or otherwise invalid, the remaining portion or portions
     shall be considered severable and not be affected, and the
     rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and
     enforced as if the Agreement did not contain the particular
     part, term or provision held to be illegal or invalid.

          H.   All parties hereto are expressly put on notice of
     Fund's Agreement and Declaration of Trust, which is on file
     with the Secretary of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and
     the limitation of shareholder and trustee liability
     contained therein.  This Agreement has been executed by and
     on behalf of Fund by its representatives as such
     representatives and not individually, and the obligations of
     Fund hereunder are not binding upon any of the Trustees,
     officers or shareholders of Fund individually but are
     binding upon only the assets and property of Fund.  With
     respect to any claim by Custodian for recovery of that
     portion of the compensation (or any other liability of Fund
     arising hereunder) allocated to a particular Portfolio,
     whether in accordance with the express terms hereof or
     otherwise, Custodian shall have recourse solely against the
     assets of that Portfolio to satisfy such claim and shall
     have no recourse against the assets of any other Portfolio
     for such purpose.

                                15

          I.   This Agreement, together with the Fee Schedule, is
     the entire contract between the parties relating to the
     subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement
to be executed by their respective authorized officers.

                    FOREIGN CUSTODY AGREEMENT

     AGREEMENT dated                  between THE CHASE MANHATTAN 
BANK ("Bank") and  KEMPER ASIAN GROWTH FUND ("Fund").

     1.   Custody Account.  The Bank agrees to establish and
maintain (a) a custody account in the name of the Fund ("Custody
Account") for any and all stocks, shares, bonds, debentures,
notes, mortgages or other obligations for the payment of money
and any certificates, receipts, warrants or other instruments
representing rights to receive, purchase or subscribe for the
same or evidencing or representing any other rights or interests
therein and other similar property (hereinafter called
"Securities") and from time to time received by the Bank or its
subcustodian (as defined in the last sentence of Section 3) for
the account of the Fund, and (b) a deposit account in the name of
the Fund ("Deposit Account") for any and all cash in any currency
received by the Bank or its subcustodian for the account of the
Fund, which cash shall not be subject to withdrawal by draft or
check.

     2.   Maintenance of Securities Abroad.  Securities in the
Custody Account shall be held in the country or other
jurisdiction as shall be specified from time to time in
Instructions, provided that such country or other jurisdiction
shall be one in which the principal trading market for such
Securities is located or the country or other jurisdiction in
which such Securities are to be presented for payment or are
<PAGE>   2

acquired for the Custody Account and cash in the Deposit Account
shall be credited to an account in such amounts and in the
country or other jurisdiction as shall be specified from time to
time in Instructions, provided that such country or other
jurisdiction shall be one in which such cash is the legal
currency for the payment of public or private debts.

     3.   Eligible Foreign Custodians and Securities
Depositories.  The Fund's Board of Trustees authorizes the Bank
to hold the Securities in the Custody Account and the cash in the
Deposit Account in custody and deposit accounts, respectively,
which have been established by the Bank with one of its branches,
a branch of a qualified U.S. bank, an eligible foreign custodian
or an eligible foreign securities depository; provided, however,
that the Bank has recommended and the Board has approved the use
of, and the Bank's contract with, such eligible foreign custodian
or eligible foreign securities depository by resolution, and a
certified copy of such resolution has been provided to the Bank.
Furthermore, if one of its branches, a branch of a qualified U.S.
bank or an eligible foreign custodian is selected to act as the
Bank's subcustodian to hold any of the Securities or cash, such
entity is authorized to hold such Securities or cash in its
account with any eligible foreign securities depository in which
it participates.  For purposes of this Agreement (a) "qualified
U.S. bank" shall mean a qualified U.S. bank as defined in Rule
17f-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("Investment
Company Act"); (b) "eligible foreign custodian" shall mean (i) a

                               -2-


<PAGE>   3

banking institution or trust company incorporated or organized
under the laws of a country other than the United States that is
regulated as such by that country's government or an agency
thereof and that has shareholders' equity in excess of $200
million in U.S. currency (or a foreign currency equivalent
thereof), (ii) a majority owned direct or indirect subsidiary of
a qualified U.S. bank or bank holding company that is
incorporated or organized under the laws of a country other than
the United States and that has shareholders' equity in excess of
$100 million in U.S. currency (or a foreign currency equivalent
thereof) or (iii) a banking institution or trust company
incorporated or organized under the laws of a country other than
the United States or a majority owned direct or indirect
subsidiary of a qualified U.S. bank or bank holding company that
is incorporated or organized under the laws of a country other
than the United States which has such other qualifications as
shall be authorized or permitted by a rule, regulation,
interpretation or exemptive order promulgated by or under the
authority of the Securities and Exchange Commission, specified in
Instructions and approved by the Bank; and (c) "eligible foreign
securities depository" shall mean a securities depository or
clearing agency, incorporated or organized under the laws of a
country other than the United States, which operates (i) the
central system for handling of securities or equivalent book-
entries in that country or (ii) a transnational system for the
central handling of securities or equivalent book-entries.

                                -3-




<PAGE>   4
     Hereinafter the term "subcustodian" will refer to any branch
of a qualified U.S. bank, any eligible foreign custodian or any
eligible foreign securities depository with which the Bank has
entered an agreement of the type contemplated hereunder regarding
Securities and/or cash held in or to be acquired for the Custody
Account or the Deposit Account.

     4.   Use of Subcustodian.  With respect to Securities and
other assets which are maintained by the Bank in the physical
custody of a subcustodian pursuant to Section 3 (as used in this
Section 4, the term "Securities" means such Securities and other
assets),

          (a)  The Bank will identify on its books as belonging
     to the Fund any Securities held by such subcustodian.

          (b)  In the event that a subcustodian permits any of
     the Securities placed in its care to be held in an eligible
     foreign securities depository, such subcustodian will be
     required by its agreement with the Bank to identify on its
     books such Securities as being held for the account of the
     Bank as a custodian for its customers.

          (c)  Any Securities in the Custody Account held by a
     subcustodian of the Bank will be subject only to the
     instructions of the Bank or its agents; and any Securities
     held in an eligible foreign securities depository for the
     account of a subcustodian will be subject only to the
     instructions of such subcustodian.

                               -4-
<PAGE>   5

          (d)  The Bank will only deposit Securities in an
     account with a subcustodian which includes exclusively the
     assets held by the Bank for its customers, and the Bank will
     cause such account to be designated by such subcustodian as
     a special custody account for the exclusive benefit of
     customers of the Bank.

          (e)  Any agreement the Bank shall enter into with a
     subcustodian with respect to the holding of Securities shall
     require that (i) the Securities are not subject to any
     right, charge, security interest, lien or claim of any kind
     in favor of such subcustodian except for their safe custody
     or administration and (ii) beneficial ownership of such
     Securities is freely transferable without the payment of
     money or value other than for safe custody or
     administration; provided, however, that the foregoing shall
     not apply to the extent that any of the above-mentioned
     rights, charges, etc. result from any compensation or other
     expenses arising with respect to the safekeeping of
     Securities pursuant to such agreement or from any
     arrangements made by the Fund with any such subcustodian.

          (f)  The Bank shall allow independent public
     accountants of the Fund such reasonable access to the
     records of the Bank relating to the Securities held in the
     Custody Account as is required by such accountants in
     connection with their examination of the books and records
     pertaining to the affairs of the Fund.  The Bank shall,

     subject to restrictions under applicable law, also obtain
     from any subcustodian with which the Bank maintains the
     physical possession of any Securities in the Custody Account
     an undertaking to permit independent public accountants of
     the Fund such reasonable access to the records of such
     subcustodian as may be required in connection with their
     examination of the books and records pertaining to the
     affairs of the Fund.  The Bank shall furnish to the Fund
     such reports (or portions thereof) of the Bank's external
     auditors as relate directly to the Bank's system of internal
     accounting controls applicable to the Bank's duties under
     this Agreement.  The Bank shall use its best efforts to
     obtain and furnish the Fund with similar reports with
     respect to each eligible foreign custodian and eligible
     foreign securities depository holding Securities of the
     Fund.

          (g)  The Bank will supply to the Fund from time to time
     as mutually agreed upon a statement in respect to any
     Securities in the Custody Account held by a subcustodian,
     including an identification of the entity having possession
     of the Securities, and the Bank will send to the Fund an
     advice or notification of any transfers of Securities to or
     from the Custody Account, indicating, as to Securities
     acquired for the Fund, the identity of the entity having
     physical possession of such Securities.  In the absence of
     the filing in writing with the Bank by the Fund of

                               -6-



<PAGE>   7
     exceptions or objections to any such statement within sixty
     (60) days following receipt of the statement, the Fund shall
     be deemed to have approved such statement; and in such case
     or upon written approval of the Fund of any such statement
     the Bank shall, to the extent permitted by law, be released,
     relieved and discharged with respect to all matters and
     things set forth in such statement as though such statement
     had been settled by the decree of a court of competent
     jurisdiction in an action in which the Fund and all persons
     having any equity interest in the Fund were parties.

          (h)  The Bank hereby warrants to the Fund that in its
     opinion, after due inquiry, the established procedures to be
     followed by each of its branches, each branch of a qualified
     U.S. bank, each eligible foreign custodian and each eligible
     foreign securities depository holding the Fund's Securities
     pursuant to this Agreement afford protection for such
     Securities at least equal to that afforded by the Bank's
     established procedures with respect to similar securities
     held by the Bank (and its securities depositories) in New
     York.

     5.   Deposit Account Payments.  Subject to the provisions of
Section 7, the Bank shall make, or cause its subcustodians to
make, payments of cash credited to the Deposit Account only

          (a)  in connection with the purchase of Securities for
     the Fund and the delivery of such Securities to, or the
     crediting of such Securities to the account of, the Bank or

                               -7-

<PAGE>   8
     its subcustodian, each such payment to be made at prices as
     confirmed by Instructions (as defined in Section 9 hereof)
     from Authorized persons (as defined in Section 10 hereof);

          (b)  for the purchase or redemption of shares of the
     capital stock of the Fund and the delivery to, or crediting
     to the account of, the Bank or its subcustodian of such
     shares to be so purchased or redeemed;

          (c)  for the payment for the account of the Fund of
     dividends, interest, taxes, management or supervisory fees,
     capital distributions or operating expenses;

          (d)  for the payments to be made in connection with the
     conversion, exchange or surrender of Securities held in the
     Custody Account;

          (e)  for transmittal either to State Street Bank and
     Trust Company, sub-custodian of the Fund, or to Investors
     Fiduciary Trust Company, Custodian for the Fund;

          (f)  for other proper corporate purposes of the Fund;
     or

          (g)  upon the termination of this Custody Agreement as
     hereinafter set forth.

All payments of cash for a purpose permitted by subsection (a),
(b), (c), (d) or (e) of this Section 5 will be made only upon
receipt by the Bank of Instructions from Authorized Persons which
shall specify the purpose for which the payment is to be made and
the applicable subsection of this Section 5.  In the case of any
payment to be made for the purpose permitted by subsection (f) of

                               -8-
<PAGE>   9
this Section 5, the Bank must first receive a certified copy of a
resolution of the Board adequately describing such payment,
declaring such purpose to be a proper purpose, and naming the
person or persons to whom such payment is to be made.  Any
payment pursuant to subsection (g) of this Section 5 will be made
in accordance with Section 17.

     In the event that any payment made under this Section 5
exceeds the funds available in the Deposit Account, the Bank may,
in its discretion, advance the Fund an amount equal to such
excess and such advance shall be deemed a loan from the Bank to
the Fund, payable on demand, bearing interest at the rate of
interest customarily charged by the Bank on similar loans.

     If the Bank causes the Deposit Account to be credited on the
payable date for interest, dividends or redemptions, the Fund
will promptly return to the Bank any such amount or property so
credited upon oral or written notification that neither the Bank
nor its subcustodian can collect such amount or property in the
ordinary course of business.  The Bank or its subcustodian, as
the case may be, shall have no duty or obligation to institute
legal proceedings, file a claim or proof of claim in any
insolvency proceeding to take any other action with respect to
the collection of such amount or property beyond its ordinary
collection procedures.

     6.   Custody Account Transactions.  Subject to the
provisions of Section 7, Securities in the Custody Account will

                               -9-
<PAGE>   10

be transferred, exchanged or delivered by the Bank or its
subcustodians only

          (a)  upon sale of such Securities for the Fund and
     receipt by the Bank or its subcustodian only of payment
     therefor, each such payment to be in the amount confirmed by
     Instructions from Authorized persons;

          (b)  when such Securities are called, redeemed or
     retired, or otherwise become payable;

          (c)  in exchange for or upon conversion into other
     Securities along or other Securities and cash pursuant to
     any plan or merger, consolidation, reorganization,
     recapitalization or readjustment;

          (d)  upon conversion of such Securities pursuant to
     their terms into other Securities;

          (e)  upon exercise of subscription, purchase or other
     similar rights represented by such Securities;

          (f)  for the purpose of exchanging interim receipts or
     temporary Securities for definitive Securities;

          (g)  for the purpose of delivery either to State Street
     Bank and Trust Company, sub-custodian of the Fund, or to
     Investors Fiduciary Trust Company, as Custodian for the
     Fund;

          (h)  for the purpose of redeeming in kind shares of the
     Fund against delivery to the Bank or its subcustodian of
     such shares to be so redeemed;

          (i)  for other proper trust purposes of the Fund;

                               -10-

<PAGE>   11
          (j)  upon the termination of this Custody Agreement as
     hereinafter set forth.

All transfers, exchanges or deliveries of Securities in the
Custody Account for a purpose permitted by either subsection (a),
(b), (c), (d), (e), (f) or (g) of this Section 6 will be made,
except as provided in Section 8, only upon receipt by the Bank of
Instructions from Authorized Persons which shall specify the
purpose of the transfer, exchange or delivery to be made and the
applicable subsection of this Section 6.  In the case of any
transfer or delivery to be made for the purpose permitted by
subsection (h) of this Section 6, the Bank must first receive
Instructions from Authorized Persons specifying the shares held
by the Bank or its subcustodian to be so transferred or delivered
and naming the person or persons to whom transfers or delivery of
such shares shall be made.  In the case of any transfer, exchange
or delivery to be made for the purpose permitted by subsection
(i) of this Section 6, the Bank must first receive a certified
copy of a resolution of the Board adequately describing such
transfer, exchange or delivery, declaring such purpose to be a
proper trust purpose, and naming the person or person to whom
delivery of such Securities shall be made.  Any transfer or
delivery pursuant to subsection (j) of this Section 6 will be
made in accordance with Section 17.

     7.   Custody Account Procedures.  With respect to any
transaction involving Securities held in or to be acquired for
the Custody Account, the Bank in its discretion may cause the

                               -11-




<PAGE>   12
Deposit Account to be credited on the contractual settlement date
with the proceeds of any sale or exchange of Securities from the
Custody Account and to be debited on the contractual settlement
date for the cost of Securities purchased or acquired for the
Custody Account.  The Bank may reverse any such credit or debit
if the transaction with respect to which such credit or debit
were made fails to settle within a reasonable period, determined
by the Bank in its discretion, after the contractual settlement
date, except that if any Securities delivered pursuant to this
Section 7 are returned by the recipient thereof, the Bank may
cause any such credits and debits to be reversed at any time.
With respect to any transactions as to which the Bank does not
determine so to credit or debit the Deposit Account, the proceeds
from the sale or exchange of Securities will be credited and the
cost of such Securities purchased or acquired will be debited to
the Deposit Account on the date such proceeds or Securities are
received by the Bank.

     Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, settlement and
payment for Securities received for, and delivery of Securities
out of, the Custody Account may be effected in accordance with
the customary or established securities trading or securities
processing practices and procedures in the jurisdiction or market
in which the transaction occurs, including, without limitation,
delivering Securities to the purchaser thereof or to a dealer
therefor (or an agent for such purchaser or dealer) against a

                               -12-



<PAGE>   13
receipt with the expectation of receiving later payment for such
Securities from such purchaser or dealer.

     8.   Actions of the Bank.  Until the Bank receives
instructions from Authorized Persons to the contrary, the Bank
will, or will instruct its subcustodian to,

          (a)  present for payment any Securities in the Custody
     Account which are called, redeemed or retired or otherwise
     become payable and all coupons and other income items which
     call for payment upon presentation to the extent that the
     Bank or subcustodian is aware of such opportunities for
     payment, and hold cash received upon presentation of such
     Securities in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2,
     3 and 4 of this Agreement;

          (b)  in respect of Securities in the Custody Account,
     execute in the name of the Fund such ownership and other
     certificates as may be required to obtain payments in
     respect thereof;

          (c)  exchange interim receipts or temporary Securities
     in the Custody Account for definitive Securities;

          (d)  convert moneys received with respect to Securities
     of foreign issue into United States dollars or any other
     currency necessary to effect any transaction involving the
     Securities whenever it is practicable to do so through
     customary banking channels, using any method or agency
     available, including, but not limited to, the facilities of
     the Bank, its subsidiaries, affiliates or subcustodians; and

                               -13-




<PAGE>   14
          (e)  in the event of any loss of Securities or Cash,
     use its best efforts to ascertain the circumstances relating
     to such loss and promptly report the same to the Fund.

     9.    Instructions.  As used in this Agreement, the term
"Instructions" means instructions of the Fund received by the
Bank, via telephone, telex, TWX, facsimile transmission, bank
wire or other teleprocess or electronic instruction system
acceptable to the Bank which the Bank reasonably believes in good
faith to have been given by Authorized Persons or which are
transmitted with proper testing or authentication pursuant to
terms and conditions which the Bank may specify.

     Any Instructions delivered to the Bank by telephone shall
promptly thereafter be confirmed in writing by an Authorized
Person (which confirmation may bear the facsimile signature of
such Person), but the Fund will hold the Bank harmless for its
failure to send such confirmation in writing, the failure of such
confirmation to conform to the telephone instructions received or
the Bank's failure to produce such confirmation at any subsequent
time provided that the Bank has timely advised the Fund of its
failure to send such confirmation in writing or the failure of
such confirmation to conform to the telephone instructions
received.  Unless otherwise expressly provided, all Instructions
shall continue in full force and effect until cancelled or
superseded.  If the Bank requires test arrangements,
authentication methods or other security devices to be used with
respect to instructions, any Instructions given by the Fund

                               -14-



<PAGE>   15
thereafter shall be given and processed in accordance with such
terms and conditions for the use of such arrangements, methods or
devices as the Bank may put into effect and modify from time to
time.  The Fund shall safeguard any testkeys, identification
codes or other security devices which the Bank shall make
available to it.  The Bank may electronically record any
Instructions given by telephone, and any other telephone
discussions, with respect to the Custody Account.

     10.  Authorized Persons.  As used in this Agreement, the
term "Authorized Persons" means such officers or such agents of
the Fund as have been designated by a resolution of the Board, a
certified copy of which has been provided to the Bank, to act on
behalf of the Fund in the performance of any acts which
Authorized Persons may do under this Agreement.  Such persons
shall continue to be Authorized Persons until such time as the
Bank receives instructions from Authorized Persons that any such
officer or agent is no longer an Authorized Person.

     11.  Nominees.  Securities in the Custody Account which are
ordinarily held in registered form may be registered in the name
of the Bank's nominee or, as to any Securities in the possession
of an entity other than the Bank, in the name of such entity's
nominee.  The Fund agrees to hold any such nominee harmless from
any liability as a holder of record of such Securities.  The Bank
may without notice to the Fund cause any such Securities to cease
to be registered in the name of any such nominee and to be
registered in the name of the Fund.  In the event that any

                               -15-

<PAGE>   16

Securities registered in the name of the Bank's nominee or held
by one of its subcustodians and registered in the name of such
subcustodian's nominee are called for partial redemption by the
issuer of such Security, the Bank may allot, or cause to be
allotted, the called portion to the respective beneficial holders
of such class of security in any manner the Bank deems to be fair
and equitable.

     12.  Standard of Care.  The Bank shall be responsible for
the performance of only such duties as are set forth herein or
contained in Instructions given to the Bank by Authorized Persons
which are not contrary to the provisions of this Agreement.  The
Bank will use reasonable care with respect to the safekeeping of
Securities in the Custody Account.  The Bank shall be liable to
the Fund for any loss which shall occur as the result of the
failure of a subcustodian or an eligible foreign securities
depository engaged by such subcustodian to exercise reasonable
care with respect to the safekeeping of such Securities and other
assets to the same extent that the Bank would be liable to the
Fund if the Bank were holding such Securities and other assets in
New York.  In the event of any loss to the Fund by reason of the
failure of the Bank or its subcustodian or an eligible foreign
securities depository engaged by such subcustodian to utilize
reasonable care, the Bank shall be liable to the Fund to the
extent of the Fund's damages, to be determined based on the
market value of the property which is the subject of the loss at
the date of discovery of such loss and without reference to any

                               -16-



<PAGE>   17

special conditions or circumstances.  The Bank shall be held to
the exercise of reasonable care in carrying out this Agreement
but shall be indemnified by, and shall be without liability to,
the Fund for any action taken or omitted by the Bank in good
faith without negligence.  The Bank shall be entitled to rely,
and may act, on advice of counsel (who may be counsel for the
Fund) on all matters and shall be without liability for any
action reasonably taken or omitted pursuant to such advice.

     The Bank need not maintain any insurance for the benefit of
the Fund.  However, the Bank represents and warrants that it
presently maintains a bankers' blanket bond ("Bond") which
provides standard fidelity and non-negligent loss coverage with
respect to securities which may be held by the Bank and
securities which may be held in the offices of foreign banks and
foreign securities depositories which may be utilized by the Bank
pursuant to this Agreement.  The Bank agrees that if at any time
the Bank for any reason discontinues such coverage, it shall
immediately notify the Fund in writing.  The Bank represents that
only the named insured on the Bond, which includes the Bank but
not any of the Bank's customers, is directly protected against
loss.  The Bank represents that while it might resist a claim of
one of its customers to recover for a loss not covered by the
Bond, as a practical matter, where a claim is brought and loss is
possibly covered by the Bond, the Bank would give notice of the
claim to its insurer, and the insurer would normally determine

                               -17-



<PAGE>   18
whether to defend the claim against the Bank or to pay the claim
on behalf of the Bank.

     All collections of funds or other property paid or
distributed in respect of Securities in the Custody Account shall
be made at the risk of the Fund.  The Bank shall have no
liability for any loss occasioned by delay in the actual receipt
of notice by the Bank or by its subcustodian of any payment,
redemption or other transaction regarding Securities in the
Custody Account in respect of which the Bank has agreed to take
action as provided in Section 8 hereof.  The Bank shall not be
liable for any action taken in good faith upon Instructions or
upon any certified copy of any resolution of the Board and may
rely on the genuineness of any such documents which it may in
good faith believe to be validly executed.  The Bank shall not be
liable for any loss resulting from, or caused by, the direction
of the Fund to maintain custody of any Securities or cash in a
foreign country including, but not limited to, losses resulting
from nationalization, expropriation, currency restrictions, acts
of war or terrorism, insurrection, revolution, nuclear fusion,
fission or radiation, or acts of God.

     13.  Compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission
Rules and Orders.  To the extent that a condition of a rule,
regulation, interpretation or exemptive order promulgated by or
under the authority of the Securities and Exchange Commission
applies to the Bank or the Fund each shall be solely responsible
to assure that this Agreement and the maintenance of Securities

                               -18-





<PAGE>   19
and cash under this Agreement complies with any such rule,
regulation, interpretation or exemptive order.

     14.  Corporate Action.  The Bank or its subcustodian is to
forward promptly to the Fund all communications relative to the
Securities in the Custody Account.  Such communications as call
for voting or the exercise of rights or other specific action
(including material relative to legal proceedings intended to be
transmitted to security holders) shall be transmitted to the Fund
by means which will permit the Fund to take timely action.  The
Bank or its subcustodian will cause its nominee to execute and
deliver to the Fund proxies relating to Securities in the Custody
Account registered in the name of such nominee but without
indicating the manner in which such proxies are to be voted.
Proxies relating to bearer Securities will be delivered in
accordance with written instructions from Authorized Persons.

     Bank hereby agrees that Bank shall create, maintain, and
retain all records relating to its activities and obligations
under this Agreement in such manner as will meet the obligations
of the Fund under the Investment Company Act, particularly
Section 31 thereof and Rules 31a-1, 31a-2, and 31a-3 thereunder,
and applicable Federal, state and foreign tax laws and other laws
or administrative rules or procedures, in each case as currently
in effect, which may be applicable to the Fund.  All records so
maintained in connection with the performance of its duties under
this Agreement shall be preserved and maintained as required by

                               -19-




<PAGE>   20
regulation and, in the event of termination of the Agreement,
shall be available to the Fund or its agent upon request.

     15.  Fees and Expenses.  The Fund agrees to pay to the Bank
from time to time such compensation for its services pursuant to
this Agreement as may be mutually agreed upon in writing from
time to time including reimbursement of the Bank's reasonable
out-of-pocket or incidental expenses, including legal fees.  The
Fund hereby agrees to hold the Bank harmless from any liability
or loss resulting from any taxes or other governmental charges,
and any expenses related thereto, which may be imposed, or
assessed with respect to the Custody Account or any Securities in
the Custody Account and also agrees to hold the Bank, its
subcustodians, and their respective nominees harmless from any
liability as a record holder of Securities in the Custody
Account.  The Bank is authorized to charge any account of the
Fund for such items and the Bank shall have a lien on Securities
in the Custody Account and on cash in the Deposit Account for any
amount owing to the Bank from time to time under this Agreement.

     16.  Effectiveness.  This Agreement shall be effective on
the date first noted above; provided, however, that the Board has
provided the Bank a certified copy of a resolution that
(i) approves each of the subcustodians listed in Appendix A
hereto and the terms of the custody agreement between the Bank
and each such subcustodian attached as Exhibits I through
hereof, and (ii) states that the Board has determined that the
use of each such subcustodian and the terms of each such

                               -20-





<PAGE>   21
subcustody agreement are consistent with the best interests of
the Fund and its shareholders.

     17.  Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated by the
Fund or the Bank by 60 days written notice to the other, sent by
registered mail, provided that any termination by the Fund shall
be authorized by a resolution of its Board, a certified copy of
which shall accompany such notice of termination, and provided
further, that such resolution shall specify the names of the
persons to whom the Bank shall deliver the Securities in the
Custody Account and to whom the cash in the Deposit Account shall
be paid.  If notice of termination is given by the Bank, the Fund
shall, within 60 days following the giving of such notice,
deliver to the Bank a certified copy of a resolution of its Board
specifying the names of the persons to whom the Bank shall
deliver the Securities in the Custody Account and to whom the
cash in the Deposit Account shall be paid.  In either case the
Bank will deliver such Securities and cash to the persons so
specified, after deducting therefrom any amounts which the Bank
determines to be owed to it under Section 15.  If within 60 days
following the giving of a notice of termination by the Bank, the
Bank does not receive from the Fund a certified copy of a
resolution of the Board specifying the names of the persons to
whom the Bank shall deliver the Securities in the Custody Account
and to whom the cash in the Deposit Account shall be paid, the
Bank, at its election, may deliver such Securities and pay such
cash to a bank or trust company doing business in the State of

                               -21-



<PAGE>   22

New York to be held and disposed of pursuant to the provisions of
this Agreement, or to Authorized Persons, or may continue to hold
such Securities and cash until a certified copy of one or more
resolutions as aforesaid is delivered to the Bank.  Concurrently
with the delivery of such Securities, the Bank shall deliver to
the Company, or such other person as the Company shall instruct,
the records referred to in Section 14 hereof which are in the
possession or control of the Bank.  The obligations of the
parties hereto regarding the use of reasonable care, indemnities
and payment of fees and expenses shall survive the termination of
this Agreement.

     18.  Notices.  Any notice or other communication from the
Fund to the Bank is to be sent to the office of the Bank at 1211
Avenue of the Americas (33rd Floor), New York, New York 10036,
Attention Global Custody Division, or such other address as may
hereafter be given to the Company in accordance with the notice
provisions hereunder, and any notice from the Bank to the Fund is
to be mailed postage prepaid, addressed to the Fund at the
address appearing below, or as it may hereafter be changed on the
Bank's records in accordance with notice hereunder from the Fund.

     19.  Governing Law and Successors and Assigns.  This
Agreement shall be governed by the law of the State of New York
and shall not be assignable by either party, but shall bind the
successors and assigns of the Fund and the Bank.

                               -22-

     20.  Headings.  The headings of the paragraphs hereof are
included for convenience of reference only and do not form a part
of this Agreement.

     21.  Additional Portfolios.  If the Fund shall issue shares
of more than one portfolio during the term hereof, the Bank
agrees that all securities and other assets of the Fund shall be
segregated by portfolio and all books and records, account values
or actions shall be maintained, held, made or taken, as the case
may be, separately for each portfolio.  Other than as encompassed
by the preceding sentence, references in this Agreement to "the
Fund" are applicable either to the entire trust or to a
particular portfolio or portfolios, as the context may make
reasonable and appropriate.  If the Fund has more than one
portfolio, instructions shall designate the portfolio or
portfolios to which they apply.

     22.  Disclaimer.  All parties hereto are expressly put on
notice of the Fund's Agreement and Declaration of Trust and all
amendments thereto, all of which are on file with the Secretary
of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and the limitation of
shareholder and trustee liability contained therein.  This
Agreement has been executed by and on behalf of the Fund by its
representatives as such representatives and not individually, and
the obligations of the Fund hereunder are not binding upon any of
the Trustees, officers or shareholders of the Fund individually
but are binding upon only the assets and property of the Fund.
With respect to any claim by Bank for recovery of that portion of

                               -23-



<PAGE>   24
the compensation (or any other liability of the Fund arising
hereunder) allocated to a particular portfolio, whether in
accordance with the express terms hereof or otherwise, the Bank
shall have recourse solely against the assets of that portfolio
to satisfy such claim and shall have no recourse against the
assets of any other portfolio for such purpose.

     7.   Indemnification.

          A.   Fund shall indemnify and hold IFTC harmless from
               and against any and all claims, actions, suits,
               losses, damages, costs, charges, counsel fees,
               payments, expenses and liabilities arising out of
               or attributable to any action or omission by IFTC
               pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with
               the agency relationship created by this Agreement,
               provided that IFTC has acted in good faith,
               without negligence and without willful misconduct.

          B.   IFTC shall indemnify and hold Fund harmless from
               and against any and all claims, actions, suits,
               losses, damages, costs, charges, counsel fees,
               payments, expenses and liabilities arising out of
               or attributable to any action or omission by IFTC
               pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with
               the agency relationship created by this Agreement,
               provided that IFTC has not acted in good faith,
               without negligence and without willful misconduct.

          C.   In order that the indemnification provisions
               contained in this Section 7 shall apply, upon the
               assertion of a claim for which either party (the
               "Indemnifying Party") may be required to provide
               indemnification hereunder, the party seeking
               indemnification (the "Indemnitee") shall promptly
               notify the Indemnifying Party of such assertion,
               and shall keep such party advised with respect to
               all developments concerning such claim.  The
               Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume
               control of the defense and the negotiations, if
               any, regarding settlement of the claim.  If the
               Indemnifying Party assumes control, the Indemnitee
               shall have the option to participate in the
               defense and negotiations of such claim at its own
               expense.  The Indemnitee shall in no event
               confess, admit to, compromise, or settle any claim
               for which the Indemnifying Party may be required
               to indemnify it except with the prior written
               consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not
               be unreasonably withheld.

     8.   Certain Covenants of IFTC and Fund.

          A.   All requisite steps will be taken by Fund from
               time to time when and as necessary to register the
               Fund's shares for sale in all states in which
               Fund's shares shall at the time be offered for
               sale and require registration.  If at any time
               Fund receives notice of any stop order or other

                               -6-
<PAGE>   7

               proceeding in any such state affecting such
               registration or the sale of Fund's shares, or of
               any stop order or other proceeding under the
               Federal securities laws affecting the sale of
               Fund's shares, Fund will give prompt notice
               thereof to IFTC.

          B.   IFTC hereby agrees to establish and maintain
               facilities and procedures reasonably acceptable to
               Fund for safekeeping of share certificates, check
               forms, and facsimile signature imprinting devices,
               if any; and for the preparation or use, and for
               keeping account of, such certificates, forms and
               devices.  Further, IFTC agrees to carry insurance,
               as specified in Exhibit B hereto, with insurers
               reasonably acceptable to Fund and in minimum
               amounts that are reasonably acceptable to Fund,
               which will not be changed without the consent of
               Fund, which consent shall not be unreasonably
               withheld, and which will be expanded in coverage
               or increased in amounts from time to time if and
               when reasonably requested by Fund.  If IFTC
               determines that it is unable to obtain any such
               insurance upon commercially reasonable terms, it
               shall promptly so advise Fund in writing.  In such
               event, Fund shall have the right to terminate this
               Agreement upon 30 days notice.

          C.   To the extent required by Section 31 of the
               Investment Company Act of 1940 and Rules
               thereunder, IFTC agrees that all records
               maintained by IFTC relating to the services to be
               performed by IFTC under this Agreement are the
               property of Fund and will be preserved and will be
               surrendered promptly to Fund on request.

          D.   IFTC agrees to furnish Fund semi-annual reports of
               its financial condition, consisting of a balance
               sheet, earnings statement and any other reasonably
               available financial information reasonably
               requested by Fund.  The annual financial
               statements will be certified by IFTC's certified
               public accountants.

          E.   IFTC represents and agrees that it will use all
               reasonable efforts to keep current on the trends
               of the investment company industry relating to
               shareholder services and will use all reasonable
               efforts to continue to modernize and improve its
               system without additional cost to Fund.

                               -7-

          F.   IFTC will permit Fund and its authorized
               representatives to make periodic inspections of
               its operations at reasonable times during business
               hours.

          G.   If IFTC is prevented from complying, either
               totally or in part, with any of the terms or
               provisions of this Agreement, by reason of fire,
               flood, storm, strike, lockout or other labor
               trouble, riot, war, rebellion, accidents, acts of
               God, equipment, utility or transmission failure or
               damage, and/or any other cause or casualty beyond
               the reasonable control of IFTC, whether similar to
               the foregoing matters or not, then upon written
               notice to Fund, the requirements of this Agreement
               that are affected by such disability, to the
               extent so affected, shall be suspended during the
               period of such disability; provided, however, that
               IFTC shall make reasonable effort to remove such
               disability as soon as possible.  During such
               period, Fund may seek alternate sources of service
               without liability hereunder; and IFTC will use all
               reasonable efforts to assist Fund to obtain
               alternate sources of service.  IFTC shall have no
               liability to Fund for nonperformance because of
               the reasons set forth in this Section 8.G; but if
               a disability that, in Fund's reasonable belief,
               materially affects IFTC's ability to perform its
               obligations under this Agreement continues for a
               period of 30 days, then Fund shall have the right
               to terminate this Agreement upon 10 days written
               notice to IFTC.

     9.   Adjustment.

          In case of any recapitalization, readjustment or other
          change in the structure of Fund requiring a change in
          the form of share certificates, IFTC will issue or
          register certificates in the new form in exchange for,
          or in transfer of, the outstanding certificates in the
          old form, upon receiving the following:

          A.   Written instructions from an officer of Fund.

          B.   Certified copy of any amendment to the Agreement
               and Declaration of Trust or other document
               effecting the change.

          C.   Certified copy of any order or consent of each
               governmental or regulatory authority required by
               law for the issuance of the shares in the new
               form, and an opinion of counsel that no order or

                               -8-




<PAGE>   9
               consent of any other government or regulatory
               authority is required.

          D.   Specimens of the new certificates in the form
               approved by the Board of Trustees of Fund, with a
               certificate of the Secretary of Fund as to such
               approval.

          E.   Opinion of counsel for Fund:

               (1)  With respect to the status of the shares of
                    Fund in the new form under the Securities Act
                    of 1933, and any other applicable federal or
                    state laws.

               (2)  To the effect that the issued shares in the
                    new form are, and all unissued shares will be
                    when issued, validly issued, fully paid and
                    non-assessable.

     10.  Share Certificates.

          Fund will furnish IFTC with a sufficient supply of
          blank share certificates and from time to time will
          renew such supply upon the request of IFTC.  Such
          certificates will be signed manually or by facsimile
          signatures of the officers of Fund authorized by law
          and Fund's Bylaws to sign share certificates and, if
          required, will bear the trust seal or facsimile
          thereof.

     11.  Death, Resignation or Removal of Signing Officer.

          Fund will file promptly with IFTC written notice of any
          change in the officers authorized to sign share
          certificates, written instructions or requests,
          together with two signature cards bearing the specimen
          signature of each newly authorized officer, all as
          certified by an appropriate officer of the Fund.  In
          case any officer of Fund who will have signed manually
          or whose facsimile signature will have been affixed to
          blank share certificates will die, resign, or be
          removed prior to the issuance of such certificates,
          IFTC may issue or register such share certificates as
          the share certificates of Fund notwithstanding such
          death, resignation, or removal, until specifically
          directed to the contrary by Fund in writing. In the
          absence of such direction, Fund will file promptly with
          IFTC such approval, adoption, or ratification as may be
          required by law.

                               -9-

<PAGE>   10


     12.  Future Amendments of Agreement and Declaration of Trust
          and Bylaws.

          Fund will promptly file with IFTC copies of all
          material amendments to its Agreement and Declaration of
          Trust and Bylaws and Registration Statement made after
          the date of this Agreement.

     13.  Instructions, Opinion of Counsel and Signatures.

          At any time IFTC may apply to any officer of Fund for
          instructions, and may consult with legal counsel for
          Fund at the expense of Fund, or with its own legal
          counsel at its own expense, with respect to any matter
          arising in connection with the agency; and it will not
          be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good
          faith in reliance upon such instructions or upon the
          opinion of such counsel. IFTC is authorized to act on
          the orders, directions or instructions of such persons
          as the Board of Trustees of Fund shall from time to
          time designate by resolution.  IFTC will be protected
          in acting upon any paper or document, including any
          orders, directions or instructions, reasonably believed
          by it to be genuine and to have been signed by the
          proper person or persons; and IFTC will not be held to
          have notice of any change of authority of any person so
          authorized by Fund until receipt of written notice
          thereof from Fund. IFTC will also be protected in
          recognizing share certificates that it reasonably
          believes to bear the proper manual or facsimile
          signatures of the officers of Fund, and the proper
          countersignature of any former Transfer Agent or
          Registrar, or of a Co-Transfer Agent or Co-Registrar.

     14.  Papers Subject to Approval of Counsel.

          The acceptance by IFTC of its appointment as Transfer
          Agent and Dividend Disbursing Agent, and all documents
          filed in connection with such appointment and
          thereafter in connection with the agencies, will be
          subject to the approval of legal counsel for IFTC,
          which approval will not be unreasonably withheld.

     15.  Certification of Documents.

          The required copy of the Agreement and Declaration of
          Trust of Fund and copies of all amendments thereto will
          be certified by the appropriate official of The
          Commonwealth of Massachusetts; and if such Agreement
          and Declaration of Trust and amendments are required by
          law to be also filed with a county, city or other
          officer or official body, a certificate of such filing

                               -10-



<PAGE>   11
          will appear on the certified copy submitted to IFTC.  A
          copy of the order or consent of each governmental or
          regulatory authority required by law for the issuance
          of Fund shares will be certified by the Secretary or
          Clerk of such governmental or regulatory authority,
          under proper seal of such authority.  The copy of the
          Bylaws and copies of all amendments thereto and copies
          of resolutions of the Board of Trustees of Fund will be
          certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of
          Fund.

     16.  Records.

          IFTC will maintain customary records in connection with
          its agency, and particularly will maintain those
          records required to be maintained pursuant to sub-
          paragraph (2)(iv) of paragraph (b) of Rule 31a-1 under
          the Investment Company Act of 1940, if any.

     17.  Disposition of Books, Records and Cancelled
          Certificates.

          IFTC will send periodically to Fund, or to where
          designated by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary
          of Fund, all books, documents, and all records no
          longer deemed needed for current purposes and share
          certificates which have been cancelled in transfer or
          in exchange, upon the understanding that such books,
          documents, records, and share certificates will not be
          destroyed by Fund without the consent of IFTC (which
          consent will not be unreasonably withheld), but will be
          safely stored for possible future reference.

     18.  Provisions Relating to IFTC as Transfer Agent.

          A.   IFTC will make original issues of share
               certificates upon written request of an officer of
               Fund and upon being furnished with a certified
               copy of a resolution of the Board of Trustees
               authorizing such original issue, an opinion of
               counsel as outlined in Section 1.G or 9.E of this
               Agreement, the certificates required by Section 10
               of this Agreement and any other documents required
               by Section 1 or 9 of this Agreement.

          B.   Before making any original issue of certificates,
               Fund will furnish IFTC with sufficient funds to
               pay any taxes required on the original issue of
               the shares.  Fund will furnish IFTC such evidence
               as may be required by IFTC to show the actual
               value of the shares.  If no taxes are payable,

                               -11-





<PAGE>   12
               IFTC will upon request be furnished with an
               opinion of outside counsel to that effect.

          C.   Shares will be transferred and new certificates
               issued in transfer, or shares accepted for
               redemption and funds remitted therefor, upon
               surrender of the old certificates in form deemed
               by IFTC properly endorsed for transfer or
               redemption accompanied by such documents as IFTC
               may deem necessary to evidence the authority of
               the person making the transfer or redemption, and
               bearing satisfactory evidence of the payment of
               any applicable share transfer taxes.  IFTC
               reserves the right to refuse to transfer or redeem
               shares until it is satisfied that the endorsement
               or signature on the certificate or any other
               document is valid and genuine, and for that
               purpose it may require a guarantee of signature by
               such persons as may from time to time be specified
               in the prospectus related to such shares or
               otherwise authorized by Fund.  IFTC also reserves
               the right to refuse to transfer or redeem shares
               until it is satisfied that the requested transfer
               or redemption is legally authorized, and it will
               incur no liability for the refusal in good faith
               to make transfers or redemptions which, in its
               judgment, are improper, unauthorized, or otherwise
               not rightful.  IFTC may, in effecting transfers or
               redemptions, rely upon Simplification Acts or
               other statutes which protect it and Fund in not
               requiring complete fiduciary documentation.

          D.   When mail is used for delivery of share
               certificates, IFTC will forward share certificates
               in "nonnegotiable" form as provided by Fund by
               first class mail, all such mail deliveries to be
               covered while in transit to the addressee by
               insurance arranged for by IFTC.

          E.   IFTC will issue and mail subscription warrants and
               certificates provided by Fund and representing
               share dividends, exchanges or split-ups, or act as
               Conversion Agent upon receiving written instruc-
               tions from any officer of Fund and such other
               documents as IFTC deems necessary.

          F.   IFTC will issue, transfer, and split-up
               certificates upon receiving written instructions
               from an officer of Fund and such other documents
               as IFTC may deem necessary.

                              -12-
<PAGE>   13

          G.   IFTC may issue new certificates in place of
               certificates represented to have been lost,
               destroyed, stolen or otherwise wrongfully taken,
               upon receiving indemnity satisfactory to IFTC, and
               may issue new certificates in exchange for, and
               upon surrender of, mutilated certificates.  Any
               such issuance shall be in accordance with the
               provisions of law governing such matter and any
               procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees of the
               Fund of which IFTC has notice.

          H.   IFTC will supply a shareholder's list to Fund
               properly certified by an officer of IFTC for any
               shareholder meeting upon receiving a request from
               an officer of Fund.  It will also supply lists at
               such other times as may be reasonably requested by
               an officer of Fund.

          I.   Upon receipt of written instructions of an officer
               of Fund, IFTC will address and mail notices to
               shareholders.

          J.   In case of any request or demand for the
               inspection of the share books of Fund or any other
               books of Fund in the possession of IFTC, IFTC will
               endeavor to notify Fund and to secure instructions
               as to permitting or refusing such inspection.
               IFTC reserves the right, however, to exhibit the
               share books or other books to any person in case
               it is advised by its counsel that it may be held
               responsible for the failure to exhibit the share
               books or other books to such person.

     19.  Provisions Relating to Dividend Disbursing Agency.

          A.   IFTC will, at the expense of Fund, provide a
               special form of check containing the imprint of
               any device or other matter desired by Fund.  Said
               checks must, however, be of a form and size
               convenient for use by IFTC.

          B.   If Fund wants to include additional printed
               matter, financial statements, etc., with the
               dividend checks, the same will be furnished to
               IFTC within a reasonable time prior to the date of
               mailing of the dividend checks, at the expense of
               Fund.

          C.   If Fund wants its distributions mailed in any
               special form of envelopes, sufficient supply of
               the same will be furnished to IFTC but the size
               and form of said envelopes will be subject to the

                               -13-




<PAGE>   14
               approval of IFTC.  If stamped envelopes are used,
               they must be furnished by Fund; or, if postage
               stamps are to be affixed to the envelopes, the
               stamps or the cash necessary for such stamps must
               be furnished by Fund.

          D.   IFTC will maintain one or more deposit accounts as
               Agent for Fund, into which the funds for payment
               of dividends, distributions, redemptions or other
               disbursements provided for hereunder will be
               deposited, and against which checks will be drawn.

     20.  Termination of Agreement.

          A.   This Agreement may be terminated by either party
               upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to the
               other party.

          B.   Fund, in addition to any other rights and
               remedies, shall have the right to terminate this
               Agreement forthwith upon the occurrence at any
               time of any of the following events:

               (1)  Any interruption or cessation of operations
                    by IFTC or its assigns which materially
                    interferes with the business operation of
                    Fund.

               (2)  The bankruptcy of IFTC or its assigns or the
                    appointment of a receiver for IFTC or its
                    assigns.

               (3)  Any merger, consolidation or sale of
                    substantially all the assets of IFTC or its
                    assigns.

               (4)  The acquisition of a controlling interest in
                    IFTC or its assigns, by any broker, dealer,
                    investment adviser or investment company
                    except as may presently exist.

               (5)  Failure by IFTC or its assigns to perform its
                    duties in accordance with this Agreement,
                    which failure materially adversely affects
                    the business operations of Fund and which
                    failure continues for thirty (30) days after
                    written notice from Fund.

               (6)  The registration of IFTC or its assigns as a
                    transfer agent under the Securities Exchange
                    Act of 1934 is revoked, terminated or
                    suspended for any reason.

                               -14-




<PAGE>   15
          C.   In the event of termination, Fund will promptly
               pay IFTC all amounts due to IFTC hereunder.  Upon
               termination of this Agreement, IFTC shall deliver
               all shareholder and account records pertaining to
               Fund either to Fund or as directed in writing by
               Fund.

     21.  Assignment.

          A.   Except for the assignment of responsibilities
               pursuant to the Services Agreement ("Services
               Agreement") between IFTC and Kemper Service
               Company ("KSVC"), which Fund has approved, neither
               this Agreement nor any rights or obligations
               hereunder may be assigned by IFTC without the
               written consent of Fund; provided, however, no
               assignment will relieve IFTC of any of its
               obligations hereunder.

          B.   This Agreement including, without limitation, the
               provisions of Section 7 will inure to the benefit
               of and be binding upon the parties and their
               respective successors and assigns including KSVC
               pursuant to the aforesaid Services Agreement.

          C.   KSVC is authorized by Fund to use the system
               services of DST Systems, Inc.

     22.  Confidentiality.

          A.   Except as provided in the last sentence of Section
               18.J hereof, or as otherwise required by law, IFTC
               will keep confidential all records of and
               information in its possession relating to Fund or
               its shareholders or shareholder accounts and will
               not disclose the same to any person except at the
               request or with the consent of Fund.

          B.   Except as otherwise required by law, Fund will
               keep confidential all financial statements and
               other financial records (other than statements and
               records relating solely to Fund's business
               dealings with IFTC) and all manuals, systems and
               other technical information and data, not publicly
               disclosed, relating to IFTC's operations and
               programs furnished to it by IFTC pursuant to this
               Agreement and will not disclose the same to any
               person except at the request or with the consent
               of IFTC.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
               in this Section 22.B, if an attempt is made
               pursuant to subpoena or other legal process to
               require Fund to disclose or produce any of the

                               -15-





<PAGE>   16
               aforementioned manuals, systems or other technical
               information and data, Fund shall give IFTC prompt
               notice thereof prior to disclosure or production
               so that IFTC may, at its expense, resist such
               attempt.

     23.  Survival of Representations and Warranties.

          All representations and warranties by either party
          herein contained will survive the execution and
          delivery of this Agreement.

     24.  Miscellaneous.

          A.   This Agreement is executed and delivered in the
               State of Illinois and shall be governed by the
               laws of said state (except as to Section 24.G
               hereof which shall be governed by the laws of The
               Commonwealth of Massachusetts).

          B.   No provisions of this Agreement may be amended or
               modified in any manner except by a written
               agreement properly authorized and executed by both
               parties hereto.

          C.   The captions in this Agreement are included for
               convenience of reference only, and in no way
               define or limit any of the provisions hereof or
               otherwise affect their construction or effect.

          D.   This Agreement shall become effective as of the
               date hereof.

          E.   This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in
               two or more counterparts, each of which shall be
               deemed an original but all of which together shall
               constitute one and the same instrument.

          F.   If any part, term or provision of this Agreement
               is held by the courts to be illegal, in conflict
               with any law or otherwise invalid, the remaining
               portion or portions shall be considered severable
               and not be affected, and the rights and
               obligations of the parties shall be construed and
               enforced as if the Agreement did not contain the
               particular part, term or provision held to be
               illegal or invalid.

          G.   All parties hereto are expressly put on notice of
               Fund's Agreement and Declaration of Trust which is
               on file with the Secretary of The Commonwealth of
               Massachusetts, and the limitation of shareholder

                               -16-





<PAGE>   17
               and trustee liability contained therein.  This
               Agreement has been executed by and on behalf of
               Fund by its representatives as such
               representatives and not individually, and the
               obligations of Fund hereunder are not binding upon
               any of the Trustees, officers or shareholders of
               the Fund individually but are binding upon only
               the assets and property of Fund.  With respect to
               any claim by IFTC for recovery of that portion of
               the compensation and expenses (or any other
               liability of Fund arising hereunder) allocated to
               a particular Portfolio, whether in accordance with
               the express terms hereof or otherwise, IFTC shall
               have recourse solely against the assets of that
               Portfolio to satisfy such claim and shall have no
               recourse against the assets of any other Portfolio
               for such purpose.

          H.   This Agreement, together with the Fee Schedule, is
               the entire contract between the parties relating
               to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all
               prior agreements between the parties.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be
executed by their respective duly authorized officer as of the
day and year first set forth above.

             TRANSFER AGENCY FEE SCHEDULE SUPPLEMENT

For purposes of the following limitation, "Class Expenses" are
expenses identified as attributable to a particular class of the
Fund and charged directly to the class.  Class Expenses are
limited to the following:  registration fees, directors' or
trustees' fees, expenses of periodic meetings of directors,
trustees or shareholders, transfer agency fees, legal and
accounting fees (other than fees for income tax return
preparation or income tax advice), and costs of shareholder
communications required by law (e.g., the preparation and mailing
of prospectuses and proxy statements).  Class Expenses
specifically do not include Rule 12b-1 fees and administrative
service fees.  Transfer agency fees and expenses will be limited
for any class of the Fund to the extent necessary to ensure that
the Class Expenses allocated to each share of a class of the Fund
for a fiscal year will differ from the Class Expenses allocated
to each share of any other class of the Fund by less than 50
basis points (.50%) of the average daily net asset value per
share of the class of shares with the smallest average net asset
value (adjusted as necessary for classes in effect for a partial
year).  For a Fund with multiple series, the foregoing shall be
applied to each series separately.

                                                               EXHIBIT 99.B9(b)


                ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT

AGREEMENT dated this __th day of __________, 19__, by and between
KEMPER ASIAN GROWTH FUND, a Massachusetts business trust (the
"Fund"), and KEMPER DISTRIBUTORS, INC., a Delaware corporation
("KDI").

In consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter contained,
it is hereby agreed by and between the parties hereto as follows:

1.   The Fund hereby appoints KDI to provide information and
administrative services for the benefit of the Fund and its
shareholders.  In this regard, KDI shall appoint various broker-
dealer firms and other financial services firms ("Firms") to
provide related services and facilities for their clients who are
shareholders of the Fund ("clients").  The Firms shall provide
such office space and equipment, telephone facilities and
personnel as is necessary or beneficial for providing information
and services to shareholders of the Fund.  Such services and
assistance may include, but are not limited to, establishing and
maintaining shareholder accounts and records, processing purchase
and redemption transactions, answering routine client inquiries
regarding the Fund and its special features, assistance to
clients in changing dividend and investment options, account
designations and addresses, and such other services as the Fund
or KDI may reasonably request.  KDI may also provide some of the
above services for the Fund directly.

KDI accepts such appointment and agrees during such period to
render such services and to assume the obligations herein set
forth for the compensation herein provided.  KDI shall for all
purposes herein provided be deemed to be an independent
contractor and, unless otherwise expressly provided or
authorized, shall have no authority to act for or represent the
Fund in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Fund.
KDI, by separate agreement with the Fund, may also serve the Fund
in other capacities.  In carrying out its duties and
responsibilities hereunder, KDI will appoint various Firms to
provide administrative and other services described herein
directly to or for the benefit of shareholders of the Fund who
may be clients of such Firms.  Such Firms shall at all times be
deemed to be independent contractors retained by KDI and not the
Fund.  KDI and not the Fund will be responsible for the payment
of compensation to such Firms for such services.

2.   For the services and facilities described in Section 1, the
Fund will pay to KDI at the end of each calendar month an
administrative service fee computed at an annual rate of up to
0.25 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the Fund (except

<PAGE>   2


assets attributable to Class I Shares).  The current fee schedule
is set forth as Appendix I hereto.  The administrative service
fee will be calculated separately for each class of each series
of the Fund as an expense of each such class; provided, however,
no administrative  service fee shall be payable with respect to
Class I Shares.  For the month and year in which this Agreement
becomes effective or terminates, there shall be an appropriate
proration on the basis of the number of days that the Agreement
is in effect during such month and year, respectively.  The
services of KDI to the Fund under this Agreement are not to be
deemed exclusive, and KDI shall be free to render similar
services or other services to others.

The net asset value for each share of the Fund shall be
calculated in accordance with the provisions of the Fund's
current prospectus.  On each day when net asset value is not
calculated, the net asset value of a share of the Fund shall be
deemed to be the net asset value of such a share as of the close
of business on the last day on which such calculation was made
for the purpose of the foregoing computations.

3.   The Fund shall assume and pay all charges and expenses of
its operations not specifically assumed or otherwise to be
provided by KDI under this Agreement.

4.   This Agreement may be terminated at any time without the
payment of any penalty by the Fund or by KDI on sixty (60) days
written notice to the other party.  Termination of this Agreement
shall not affect the right of KDI to receive payments on any
unpaid balance of the compensation described in Section 2 hereof
earned prior to such termination.  This Agreement may not be
amended for any class of any series of the Fund to increase the
amount to be paid to KDI for services hereunder above .25 of 1%
of the average daily net assets of such class without the vote of
a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such class.
All material amendments to this Agreement must in any event be
approved by vote of the Board of Trustees of the Fund.

5.   If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or made
invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the
remainder shall not be thereby affected.

6.   Any notice under this Agreement shall be in writing,
addressed and delivered or mailed, postage prepaid, to the other
party at such address as such other party may designate for the
receipt of such notice.

7.   All parties hereto are expressly put on notice of the Fund's
Agreement and Declaration of Trust and all amendments thereto,
all of which are on file with the Secretary of The Commonwealth
of Massachusetts, and the limitation of shareholder and trustee
liability contained therein.  This Agreement has been executed by

                                2





<PAGE>   3
and on behalf of the Fund by its representatives as such
representatives and not individually, and the obligations of the
Fund hereunder are not binding upon any of the trustees, officers
or shareholders of the Fund individually but are binding upon
only the assets and property of the Fund.

8.   This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with
applicable federal law and (except as to Section 7 hereof which
shall be construed in accordance with the laws of The
Commonwealth of Massachusetts) the laws of the State of Illinois.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Fund and KDI have caused this Agreement
to be executed as of the day and year first above written.

                        SERVICES AGREEMENT

Pursuant to Section 2 of the Administrative Services Agreement to
which this Appendix is attached, the Fund and KDI agree that the
initial administrative service fee will be computed at an annual
rate of .25 of 1% (the "Fee Rate").  For purposes of computing
the fee due KDI, the Fee Rate shall be applied against the amount
of assets of the Fund for which a broker-dealer or other
financial services firm is listed on the records of the Fund as
"dealer of record," which shall not include KDI.

Kemper Asian Growth Fund

Chicago, Illinois  60603

Ladies and Gentlemen:

        Reference is made to Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration
Statement on Form N-1A under the Securities Act of 1933 being filed by Kemper
Asian Growth Fund (the "Fund") in connection with the proposed public offering
of an indefinite amount of units of beneficial interest, no par value
("Shares"), in the Fund.

        We have acted as counsel to the Fund since its inception and in such
capacity are familiar with the Fund's organization and have counseled the Fund
regarding various legal matters.  We have examined such Fund records and other
documents and certificates as we have considered necessary or appropriate for
the purposes of this opinion.  In our examination of such materials, we have
assumed the genuineness of all signatures and the conformity to original
documents of all copies submitted to us.

        Based upon the foregoing and upon the opinion dated September 18, 1996
by Ropes & Gray of Boston, Massachusetts, we advise you and opine that (a) the
Fund is a duly authorized and validly existing voluntary association with
transferrable shares under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and is
authorized to issue an unlimited number of Shares; and (b) upon the issuance of
the Shares in accordance with the Fund's Agreement and Declaration of Trust and
the receipt by the Fund of a purchase price not less than the net asset value
per Share, the Shares will be legally issued and outstanding, fully paid and
non-assessable (although shareholders of the Fund may be subject to liability
under certain circumstances described in Part B of the Registration Statement
of the Fund under the caption "Shareholder Rights").

        We hereby consent to the use of this opinion in connection with said
Pre-Effective Amendment.

                                        Very truly yours,

Kemper Asian Growth Fund
120 South LaSalle Street
Chicago, Illinois  60603

Vedder, Price, Kaufman & Kammholz
222 North LaSalle Street
Chicago, Illinois  60601

Ladies and Gentlemen:

        We are furnishing this opinion with respect to the proposed offer and
sale from time to time of an indefinite number of shares of beneficial interest
(the "Shares") of Kemper Asian Growth Fund (the "Fund"), being registered under
the Securities Act of 1933,  as amended, by a Registration Statement on Form
N-1A (the "Registration Statement").

        We have acted as Massachusetts counsel for the fund in connection with
its organization and are familiar with the action take by its Trustees to
authorize the issuance of the Shares of the Fund.  We have examined the Trust's
records of Trustee action, its By-Laws and its Agreement and Declaration of
Trust, as amended to date.  We have examined such other documents as we deem
necessary for the purposes of this opinion.

        We assume that appropriate action has been or will be taken to register
or qualify the sale of the Shares under any applicable state and federal laws
regulating sales and offerings of securities and that upon sale of the Shares,
the Fund will receive the net asset value thereof.

        Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

        1.  The Fund is a legally organized and validly existing unincorporated
voluntary association under the laws of  The Commonwealth of Massachusetts
which, unless terminated as provided in its Agreement and Declaration of Trust,
shall continue in existence without limitation of time.

        2.  The Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Shares and
upon the issue of any thereof for cash at net asset value after the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement and receipt by the Fund of the
authorized consideration therefor, the Shares so issued will be validly issued,
fully paid, and nonassessable by the Fund.

        The Fund is an entity of the type commonly known as a "Massachusetts
business trust".  Under Massachusetts law, shareholders could, under certain
circumstances, be held personally liable for the obligations of the Fund. 
However, the Agreement and Declaration of Trust disclaims shareholder liability
for acts and obligations of the Fund and requires that notice of such
disclaimer be given in each agreement, obligation or instrument entered into or
executed by the Trustees or officers of the Fund.  The Agreement and
Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification out of the property of the
Fund for all loss and expense of any shareholder of the Fund held personally
liable for the obligations of the Fund.  Thus, the risk of a liability is
limited to circumstances in which the Fund would be unable to meet its
obligations.

        We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.

                                                Very truly yours,

                       CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



We consent to the use of our report dated September 13, 1996 in the
Registration Statement (Form N-1A) of Kemper Asian Growth Fund, and its
incorporation by reference in the related prospectus filed with the securities
and Exchange Commission in this Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



The Board of Trustees and Shareholder
Kemper Asian Growth Fund


We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of Kemper Asian Growth
Fund as of September 13, 1996.  This statement of net assets is the
responsibility of the Fund's management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on this statement of net assets based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement of net assets is free
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the statement of net assets.  An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall statement of
net assets presentation.  We believe that our audit of the statement of net
assets provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the statement of net assets referred to above presents fairly,

CHOOSING YOUR PLAN

RETIREMENT PLANNING SOLUTIONS THAT BENEFIT BOTH YOU AND YOUR EMPLOYEES

     Providing for retirement is an increasing concern for employers, as well
     as employees. With a shrinking work force, employers will have to be more
     competitive than ever to attract a qualified staff. The rising costs of
     traditional pension plans, however, can be a significant financial drain
     on a company's profits. So how can a company remain competitive and not
     risk its bottom line?

     Many employers have discovered that defined contribution plans such as
     Money Purchase and Profit Sharing plans provide a viable solution that can
     benefit both the company and its employees.

 FIND OUT IF ONE OF THESE PLANS IS RIGHT FOR YOU...

     With the variety of retirement plans available today, it's often difficult
     to know which one is best for your company's needs. If you're a sole
     proprietor, independent contractor, owner of a small business or in
     private practice, with few or no employees, and are looking for a way to
     save for retirement and reduce your tax liabilities, consider one of these
     plans.

     PROFIT SHARING PLAN

          A profit sharing plan is just that - a plan that enables the
          employees to participate in the profits of the company. The
          flexibility of contribution limits and the relative ease of
          maintenance make profit sharing plans an attractive alternative for
          both employers and employees.

          A profit sharing plan allows employees to participate in the
          company's success, thereby giving further incentive for employee
          productivity and loyalty. More profits mean higher contributions, up
          to legal limits.

     MONEY PURCHASE PLAN

          A money purchase plan shares many of the same advantages and features
          of a profit sharing plan, but has a higher contribution level.  It
          has the same eligibility requirements, tax benefits and distribution
          choices. The difference is in the contribution limits and
          requirements.

               - Allows for higher contribution levels

               - Contribution levels are fixed

          Because there is a fixed contribution formula, required contributions
          can be easily computed and budgeted. Once a percentage has been
          determined, contributions are mandatory each year, and for the same
          percentage level - regardless of whether the company is profitable
          that year. Failure to contribute the required amount in a year could
          result in stiff tax penalties, and jeopardize the qualified status of
          the plan.

     COMBINED MONEY PURCHASE AND PROFIT SHARING PLAN

     Many employers like the idea of making contributions as high as 25% of
     eligible payroll, but are not comfortable committing to this every year.
     Fortunately, the IRS allows a combination or "paired" plan that gives the
     "best of both worlds."

          - Higher contribution levels of a money purchase plan

          - Flexible contribution limits of a profit sharing plan

     Paired plans combine the flexibility of a profit sharing plan with the
     higher contribution limits of a money purchase pension plan. A combined
     plan lets you enjoy control over a portion of the contribution similar to
     a profit sharing plan, but also offers the higher contribution limits
     found in a money purchase plan. Employees are assured that they will be
     provided with at least some level of retirement benefit.

     Typically, if an employer wishes to maximize the contribution, he or she
     would set the money purchase plan contribution at 10%, which would be
     mandatory each year, and allow the remaining 15% to be a part of the
     profit sharing plan, which is contingent on whether or not the company can
     afford it. That way, the employer is only locked into a 10% mandatory
     contribution rather than 25%.

THE KEMPER RED BOOK KEOGH PROTOTYPE

     The Plan Document, contained in the last section of this booklet, provides
     the plan parameters for self-employed partnerships and corporations, and
     has been amended for the Tax Reform Act of 1986. Investors Fiduciary Trust
     Company (IFTC) will act as trustee for a plan using Kemper mutual funds.
     Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company (KILICO) annuities do not require
     a trustee. Before any contributions can be made to the plan, an Adoption
     Agreement (see section entitled "Plan Installation Forms") that outlines
     the plan parameters must be signed and dated.

  ELIGIBILITY

     Since the plan is employer-sponsored, the employer has the ability to
     establish minimum requirements for plan participation, generally based on
     age and years of service. As the employer, you decide how flexible plan
     participation will be, keeping within certain minimum requirements set by
     the IRS. Of course, eligibility requirements may be lower. Those who must
     be eligible for the plan are:

          - Any employee over age 21, AND
          - Employees who have had at least two years of service, AND
          - Employees who are not covered by a collective bargaining agreement.

     All employees (including leased and control group) who fulfill eligibility
     requirements, except for union employees covered under a collective
     bargaining agreement, are eligible participants in the plan. Entry dates
     for the plan are semi-annual.

  CONTRIBUTIONS

     One of the most important benefits of the plan is that the employer's
     contributions are a tax-deductible business expense. This special tax
     treatment makes it one of the few remaining tax shelters available. 

     All plan participants employed on the last day of the plan year will share
     in the employer's contribution regardless of the hours worked during the 
     plan year. Terminated participants will share in the employer's 
     contribution only if they completed at least 501 hours of service during 
     the plan year in which they terminated.

     Compensation is defined as an employee's total gross salary earned while
     the employee was actually a plan participant. Rollover contributions are
     allowed if the Employer wishes. Employee after-tax contributions are not
     allowed under this plan document.

CHOOSING YOUR PLAN

  DISTRIBUTIONS

     Terminated participants will receive their distribution on the 60th day of
     the plan year following separation of service. If the value of the account
     is more than $3,500 the participant must agree to take his or her money,
     and the participant can choose lump sum or installment payments. If the
     account value is $3,500 or less, the participant receives a lump sum
     payment. Participants are always 100% vested.

     Kemper Financial Services, Inc. will provide self-trusteed, variable
     documents which allow you to vary the plan parameters. Please contact your
     representative or Kemper Financial Services, Inc. at 1-800-621-5027.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

     Q.   WHAT IS THE DEADLINE FOR ESTABLISHING A RETIREMENT PLAN?

     A.   The plan must be established on or before the last day of the taxable
          year for which a deduction is to be taken.

     Q.   DOES "ESTABLISH" MEAN THERE MUST BE ASSETS IN THE PLAN?

     A.   Yes, at least $250 is required to open and establish the account in
          the tax year. The balance of the contribution must comply with tax
          deadlines.

     Q.   WHAT IS THE DEADLINE FOR MAKING CONTRIBUTIONS ONCE THE PLAN IS
          ESTABLISHED?

     A.   Contributions for any year must be made before the latest possible
          filing date for the Employer's federal income tax return for that
          year, including extensions.

     Q.   SHOULD I BE BONDED?

     A.   Yes, Employers should be bonded if the plan covers employees other
          than the owner(s) and the owner(s) spouse; the bond must cover at
          least 10% of the plan's assets; the face value of the bond may not be
          less than $1,000.

     Q.   WHAT IS MEANT BY "YEAR OF SERVICE" WHEN DETERMINING WHO IS ELIGIBLE
          TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PLAN?

     A.   "Year of Service" for purposes of eligibility means 12 consecutive
          months during which an employee completes at least 1,000 hours of
          service. The 12-month period begins on the day an employee performs
          his or her first hour of service.

     Q.   WHEN DOES AN EMPLOYEE PARTICIPATE ONCE ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS ARE
          MET?

     A.   The employee becomes a Participant on the first day of the Plan Year,
          or the first day of the seventh month of the Plan Year, following
          satisfaction of the eligibility requirement. For example, if the Plan
          Year is a calendar year and an employee satisfies the eligibility
          requirement on March 1, he or she will enter the plan on July 1.

     Q.   CAN THE EMPLOYEE CONTRIBUTE UNDER THIS PLAN?

     A.   Pre-tax employee salary reduction contributions may be allowed, but
          only if you elect to include the 401(k) arrangement found in Article
          XIII of the Profit Sharing Adoption Agreement. After-tax
          contributions are not allowed.

     Q.   WHAT IS SOCIAL SECURITY INTEGRATION?

     A.   When your overall retirement plan scheme combines Social Security
          with your private retirement plan, this is called integration.
          Integration allows you to take advantage of the Social Security tax
          payments you already make when designing your private retirement
          plan's formula. The result favors the highly paid employees because
          they receive a larger portion of the total contribution.
          Contribution formulas and worksheets for self-employed participants
          in integrated plans are available from Kemper Financial Services upon
          request.

     Q.   WHAT IS THE COMPENSATION FOR A SOLE PROPRIETOR?

     A.   If you are a sole proprietor or your business is a partnership, you
          must base contributions on earned income, which is defined as net
          profits minus the amount you contributed to the plan. Your net
          profits are shown on the Schedule C form for a sole proprietor, and
          the schedule K-1 form for a partnership. Contributions for all other
          employees are based on gross earnings actually paid for services
          rendered.
<PAGE>   6

     Q.   WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO "AMEND AND RESTATE" A PLAN? 

     A.   To amend and restate your plan means you have updated your plan in 
          its entirety by replacing the plan document with a new plan document. 
          This may be necessary if your existing plan document prohibits plan
          investments with Kemper or because of changes in the laws governing
          qualified retirement plans.

          Many employers are now formally updating their plans to comply with
          the Tax Reform Act of 1986. These amendments must be retroactive to
          the first day of your 1987 plan year unless interim amendments were
          adopted for the 1987 and 1988 plan years.

INVESTING YOUR PLAN ASSETS

     One of the most important decisions you have to make is where to invest
     your plan's assets. The better your plan's investment performance, the
     easier it will be for you and your employees to retire in comfort. You'll
     want to select investments with a broad range of objectives to meet the
     diverse investment needs of your employees, and take great care in
     choosing the company that will manage your plan's assets.

3.01 AMOUNT

          The amount of the Employer's annual contribution to the Trust will
          equal the amount (or additional amount) the Employer may from time to
          time deem advisable, irrespective of whether the Employer has Net
          Profits.

3.04 CONTRIBUTION ALLOCATION

          Profit Sharing plan - Employer contributions for the plan year will
          be allocated to participants' accounts as follows: [NOTE: IF THE
          EMPLOYER WILL NOT BE INTEGRATING THE PLAN WITH SOCIAL SECURITY OR
          ADOPTING THE PAIRED MONEY PURCHASE PENSION PLAN #002, SKIP STEPS ONE,
          TWO AND THREE BELOW AND GO DIRECTLY TO STEP FOUR.]

        STEP ONE: Contributions will be allocated to each participant's
          account in the ratio that each participant's total compensation bears
          to all participants' total compensation, but not in excess of 3% of
          each participant's total compensation.

        STEP TWO: Any contributions remaining after the allocation in Step
          One will be allocated to each participant's account in the ratio
          that each participant's compensation for the plan year in excess of
          the integration level bears to the excess compensation of all
          participants, but not in excess of 3%.

        STEP THREE: Any contributions remaining after the allocation in Step
          Two will be allocated to each participant's account in the ratio that
          the sum of each participant's total compensation plus excess
          compensation bears to the sum of all participant's total compensation
          plus total excess compensation, but not in excess of the
          profit-sharing maximum disparity rate.

        STEP FOUR: Any remaining employer contributions or forfeitures will
          be allocated to each participant's account in the ratio that each
          participant's total compensation for the plan year bears to all
          participants' total compensation for that year.

          The integration level shall be equal to the amount elected by the
          employer in the Adoption Agreement. The taxable wage base (TWB) is
          the maximum amount of earnings which may be considered wages for a
          year under Section 3121(a)(1) of the Code in effect as of the 
          beginning of the plan year.

          Compensation shall mean compensation as defined in Section 1.12 of
          the plan.

          The integration level is equal to (Choose one):
               / / Taxable Wage Base (TWB)
               / / $_______ (a dollar amount less than the TWB)
               / / ________ % of TWB (not to exceed 100%)

          The maximum Profit Sharing disparity rate is equal to the lesser of:
               (a) 2.7% or
               (b) the applicable percentage determined in accordance with the
                   table below:

* X = the greater of $10,000 or 20% of the TWB.
**Y = any amount more than 80% of the TWB but less than 100% of the TWB.

USE OF ADOPTION AGREEMENT
Failure to properly complete the elections in this Adoption Agreement may
result in disqualification of the Employer's Plan. The 3-digit number assigned
to this Adoption Agreement is solely for the Plan Sponsor's record keeping
purposes and does not necessarily correspond to the plan number the Employer
assigns to its plan for ERISA reporting purposes. The Plan Sponsor offers the
following Paired Pension Plan with this Paired Profit Sharing Plan, identified
by 3-digit Adoption Agreement number: 002. This Adoption Agreement may be used
only in conjunction with Basic Plan Document 01.

PLAN SPONSOR
The Plan Sponsor identified on the first page of the basic plan document will
notify all adopting Employers of any amendment to this Plan or of any
abandonment or discontinuance by the Plan Sponsor of its maintenance of this
Plan. For inquiries regarding the adoption of the Plan, the Plan Sponsor's
intended meaning of any plan provisions or the effect of the opinion letter
issued to the Plan Sponsor, please contact the Plan Sponsor at the following
address and telephone number: Kemper Financial Services, Inc., 120 South LaSalle
Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, 1-800-621-1148.

RELIANCE ON OPINION LETTER
If the Employer does not maintain (and has never maintained) any plan other
than this Plan and a Paired Pension Plan, it may rely on the Plan Sponsor's
opinion letter covering this Plan for purposes of plan qualification. For this
purpose, the Employer has not maintained another plan if this Plan, or the
Paired Pension Plan, amended and restated that prior plan and the prior plan
was the same type of plan as the restated plan. If the Employer maintains or
has maintained another plan other than a Paired Pension Plan, including a
welfare benefit fund, as defined in Code Section 419(e), which provides post-
retirement medical benefits for key employees (as defined in Code Section 
419A(d)(3)), or an individual medical account (as defined in Code Section 
415(1)(2)), the Employer may not rely on this Plan's qualified status unless 
it obtains a determination letter from the applicable IRS Key District office.

purposes and does not necessarily correspond to the plan number the Employer
assigns to its Plan for ERISA reporting purposes. The Plan Sponsor offers the
following Paired Profit Sharing Plan with this Paired Pension Plan, identified
by 3-digit Adoption Agreement number 001. This Adoption Agreement may be only
used in conjunction with Basic Plan Document 01.

PLAN SPONSOR
The Plan Sponsor identified on the first page of the basic plan document will
notify all adopting Employers of any amendment to this Plan or of any
abandonment or discontinuance by the Plan Sponsor of its maintenance of this
Plan. For inquiries regarding the adoption of the Plan, the Plan Sponsor's
intended meaning of any plan provisions or the effect of the opinion letter
issued to the Plan Sponsor, please contact the Plan Sponsor at the following
address and telephone number: Kemper Financial Services, Inc., 120 South LaSalle
Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, 1-800-621-1148.

RELIANCE ON OPINION LETTER
If the Employer does not maintain (and has never maintained) any plan other
than this Plan and a Paired Profit Sharing Plan, it may rely on the Plan
Sponsor's opinion letter covering this Plan for purposes of plan qualification.
For this purpose, the Employer has not maintained another plan if this Plan, or
the Paired Profit Sharing Plan, amended and restated that prior plan and the
prior plan was the same type of plan as the restated plan. If the Employer
maintains or later adopts or has maintained another plan other than a Paired
Profit Sharing Plan, including a welfare benefit fund, as defined in Code
Section 419(e), which provides post-retirement medical benefits for key 
employees (as defined in Code Section 419A(d)(3)), or an individual medical 
account (as defined in Code Section 415(1)(2)), the Employer may not rely on 
this Plan's qualified status unless it obtains a determination letter from the 
applicable IRS Key District office.

                  PRE-RETIREMENT SURVIVOR ANNUITY MEMORANDUM

INSTRUCTIONS:
This memorandum must be provided to married money purchase pension plan and
certain profit sharing plan participants unless their spouse is the beneficiary
of at least 50% of the participant's account balance.  A participant should
receive this memorandum during the Plan Year in which they turn age 32.  They
will have the right to waive it, with spousal consent, during the Plan Year in
which the participant turns age 35.  A married participant age 35 or older
should immediately be given this memorandum and the Waiver of Pre-retirement
Survivor Annuity form.

________________________________________________________________________ Plan
                  Name of Employer

PRE-RETIREMENT SURVIVOR ANNUITY. The Plan requires the Employer to distribute a
pre-retirement survivor annuity to your surviving spouse if your death occurs
before distributions have begun and you and your spouse are married during the
one year period ending on the date of your death.

Under the pre-retirement survivor annuity, your spouse will receive lifetime
monthly annuity payments. The Employer will purchase the annuity contract from
an insurance company using 50% of your vested account balance (including the
proceeds, if any, of life insurance contracts purchased on your behalf under
the Plan). The contract will be given to your surviving spouse as evidence of a
right to receive the annuity payments from the insurance company. Generally,
the Employer may not begin payment of the annuity prior to the date a
participant would have reached age 65 without the surviving spouse's consent.
However, the surviving spouse may elect to have distribution of the
pre-retirement survivor annuity at any time following the participant's death.
If, at the time of your death, 50% of your account balance is less than
$3,500, the Employer will pay your spouse a lump sum payment instead of the
annuity.

WAIVER ELECTION. The Plan requires payment of the pre-retirement survivor
annuity unless you have a valid waiver election in effect on the date of your
death. To have a valid waiver you and your spouse must complete the waiver
election form. YOUR WAIVER ELECTION IS NOT VALID UNLESS YOUR SPOUSE, DURING THE
ELECTION PERIOD, ALSO CONSENTS IN WRITING TO YOUR BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION,
UNLESS YOUR SPOUSE IS THE SOLE PRIMARY BENEFICIARY. Your waiver election is not
valid unless you and your spouse make the election within the election period.
The election period begins on the first day of the Plan Year immediately before
your 35th birthday or, if later, the date you receive this notice. The election
period ends on the date of your death. If you wish, you may waive the
pre-retirement survivor annuity prior to the beginning of the election period.
However, on the first day of the election period mentioned above, you and your
spouse would have to complete a second waiver form. If you terminate
employment, you may waive the pre-retirement survivor annuity at any time after
the date of your termination. You may revoke or make a new waiver election as
often as you like during the election period. You may revoke a waiver election
without your spouse's consent, but your spouse would have to consent to a new
waiver. A waiver election is valid only for the spouse consenting to the
waiver. Therefore, you should inform the Employer of any change in your marital
status.

FINANCIAL EFFECT OF YOUR ELECTION. If you and your spouse do NOT waive the
pre-retirement survivor annuity, the Employer will pay your surviving spouse
the pre-retirement survivor annuity and pay the remaining value of the account
to your designated beneficiary. If the Employer pays your spouse the annuity,
the Plan does not need your spouse's consent to the beneficiary designation.
Under a pre-retirement survivor annuity, your surviving spouse will receive
lifetime income. Benefits will not continue to other beneficiaries after your
spouse's death.  Your surviving spouse can choose a lump sum or installment
payments instead of the pre-retirement survivor annuity.

If you and your spouse waive the pre-retirement survivor annuity, the Employer
will pay your entire vested account balance to your designated beneficiary. The
Plan generally requires payment of the death benefit in lump sum.  If your
beneficiary receives a lump sum payment, the Employer will provide the
beneficiary a notice of the special tax benefits, if any, available for the
distribution. If your vested account balance at the time of your death exceeds
$3,500, your beneficiary may choose a lump sum or installment payments. Under
the installment method, the Employer will continue payments from your account
until the entire account has been depleted. Furthermore, your vested account
balance will continue to earn investment income. If a vested account balance
remains in the Plan at the time of your primary beneficiary's death, the Plan
will pay the remaining account balance to your primary beneficiary's estate,
unless your beneficiary designation directs otherwise. If you and your spouse
waive the pre-retirement survivor annuity, your spouse must consent to the
identity of the designated beneficiary but does not have to consent to the form
of payment made to the beneficiary.

PROCEDURE. If you and your spouse wish to have the pre-retirement survivor
annuity apply, YOU DO NOT NEED TO MAKE ANY ELECTION. If you and your spouse do
NOT wish to have the pre-retirement survivor annuity apply, sign the enclosed
Waiver of Pre-retirement Survivor Annuity election form within the election
period. We also have enclosed a Designation of Beneficiary Form.

only if I consent, in writing, to my spouse's beneficiary designation or any
change in my spouse's beneficiary designation, unless my spouse has designated
me as sole primary beneficiary.

                                  DEFINITIONS

1.01   "EMPLOYER" means each employer who adopts this Plan by executing an
       Adoption Agreement.

1.02   "TRUSTEE" means Investors Fiduciary Trust Company.

1.03   "PLAN" means the retirement plan established or continued by the
       Employer in the form of this Agreement, including the Adoption Agreement
       which the Employer has executed.

1.04   "ADOPTION AGREEMENT" means the document executed by the Employer and the
       Trustee by which the Employer establishes or continues this Plan.

1.05   "PLAN ADMINISTRATOR" is the Employer unless the Employer designates
       another person to hold the position of Plan Administrator. In addition
       to his other duties, the Plan Administrator has full responsibility for
       compliance with the reporting and disclosure rules under ERISA with
       respect to this Agreement.

1.06   "ADVISORY COMMITTEE" means the Employer's Advisory Committee as from
       time to time constituted.

1.07   "EMPLOYEE" means any employee of the employer maintaining the Plan or of
       any other employer required to be aggregated with such employer under
       Code Section 4l4(b), (c), (m) or (o). The term employee shall also 
       include any leased employee deemed to be an employee of any employer 
       described in the previous paragraph as provided in Code Section 4l4(n) 
       or (o).

1.08   "SELF-EMPLOYED INDIVIDUAL/OWNER-EMPLOYEE." "Self-Employed Individual"
       means an individual who has Earned Income (or who would have had Earned
       Income but for the fact that the trade or business did not have net
       earnings) for the taxable year from the trade or business for which the
       Plan is established. "Owner-Employee" means a Self-Employed Individual
       who is the sole proprietor in the case of a sole proprietorship. If the
       Employer is a partnership, "Owner-Employee" means a Self-Employed
       Individual who is a partner and owns more than 10% of either the capital
       or profits interest of the partnership.

1.09   "HIGHLY COMPENSATED EMPLOYEE" means an Employee who, during the Plan
       Year or during the preceding 12-month period:

       (A)    is a 5% owner of the Employer (applying the constructive
              ownership rules of Code Section 318, and applying the principles
              of Code Section 318, for an unincorporated entity);
         
       (B)    has Compensation in excess of $75,000 (as adjusted by the
              Commissioner of Internal Revenue for the relevant year);
         
       (C)    has Compensation in excess of $50,000 (as adjusted by the
              Commissioner of Internal Revenue for the relevant year) and is
              part of the top-paid 20% group of Employees (based on
              Compensation for the relevant year);
         
       (D)    has Compensation in excess of 50% of the dollar amount prescribed
              in Code Section 415(b)(1)(A) (relating to defined benefit plans)
              and is an officer of the Employer.

       If the Employee satisfies the definition in clause (b), (c) or (d) in
       the Plan Year but not during the preceding 12-month period and does not
       satisfy clause (a) in either period, the Employee is a Highly
       Compensated Employee only if he is one of the 100 most highly
       compensated Employees for the Plan Year. The number of officers taken
       into account under clause (d) will not exceed the greater of 3 or 10% of
       the total number (after application of the Code Section 414(q) 
       exclusions) of Employees, but no more than 50 officers. If no Employee 
       satisfies the Compensation requirement in clause (d) for the relevant 
       year, the Advisory Committee will treat the highest paid officer as 
       satisfying clause (d) for that year.

       For purposes of this Section, "Compensation" means Compensation as
       defined in Section 1.12, and Compensation must include: (i) elective
       deferrals under a Code Section 401(k) arrangement or under a Simplified
       Employee Pension maintained by the Employer; and (ii) amounts paid by    
       the Employer which are not currently includible in the Employee's gross
       income because of Code Sections 125 (cafeteria plans) or 403(b)
       (tax-sheltered annuities). The Advisory Committee must make the
       determination of who is a Highly Compensated Employee, including the
       determinations of the number and identity of the top paid 20% group, the
       top 100 paid Employees, the number of officers includible in clause (d)
       and the relevant Compensation, consistent with Code Section 414(q) and
       regulations issued under that Code section. The Employer may make a
       calendar year election to determine the Highly Compensated Employees for
       the Plan Year, as prescribed by Treasury regulations. A calendar year
       election must apply to all plans and arrangements of the Employer. For
       purposes of applying any nondiscrimination test required under the Plan
       or under the Code, in a manner consistent with applicable Treasury
       regulations, the Advisory Committee will not treat as a separate
       Employee a family member (a spouse, a lineal ascendant or descendant, or
       a spouse of lineal ascendant or descendant) of a Highly Compensated
       Employee described in clause (a) of this Section, or a family member of
       one of the ten Highly Compensated Employees with the greatest
       Compensation for the Plan Year, but will treat the Highly Compensated
       Employee and all family members as a single Highly Compensated Employee.
       This aggregation rule applies to a family member even if that family
       member is a Highly Compensated Employee without family aggregation.
                                                       

                                      1
<PAGE>   36

       The term "Highly Compensated Employee" also includes any former Employee
       who separated from Service (or has a deemed Separation from Service, as
       determined under Treasury regulations) prior to the Plan Year, performs
       no Service for the Employer during the Plan Year, and was a Highly
       Compensated Employee either for the separation year or any Plan Year
       ending on or after his 55th birthday. If the former Employee's
       Separation from Service occurred prior to January 1, 1987, he is a
       Highly Compensated Employee only if he satisfied clause (a) of this
       Section 1.09 or received Compensation in excess of $50,000 during: (1)
       the year of his Separation from Service (or the prior year); or (2) any
       year ending after his 54th birthday.

       The determination of who is a Highly Compensated Employee, including the
       determinations of the number and identity of Employees in the top-paid
       group, the top 100 Employees, the number of Employees treated as
       officers and the Compensation that is considered, will be made in
       accordance with Code Section 414(q) and the regulations thereunder.

1.10   "PARTICIPANT" is any Employee other than a Member of a Collective
       Bargaining Unit who is eligible to be and becomes a Participant in
       accordance with the provisions of Section 2.01.

1.11   "BENEFICIARY" is a person designated by a Participant who is or may
       become entitled to a benefit under the Plan. A Beneficiary who becomes
       entitled to a benefit under the Plan remains a Beneficiary under the
       Plan until the Trustee has fully distributed his benefit to him. A
       Beneficiary's right to (and the Plan Administrator's, the Advisory
       Committee's or a Trustee's duty to provide to the Beneficiary)
       information or data concerning the Plan does not arise until he first
       becomes entitled to receive a benefit under the Plan.

1.12   "COMPENSATION" means compensation as that term is defined in Section
       3.18(b) of the Plan. If compensation for any prior plan year is taken
       into account in determining an employee's contributions or benefits for
       the current year, the compensation for such prior year is subject to the
       applicable annual compensation limit in effect for that prior year. For
       this purpose, for years beginning before January 1, 1990, the applicable
       annual compensation limit is $200,000. For any self-employed individual
       covered under the plan, compensation will mean earned income.
       Compensation shall include only that compensation which is actually paid
       to the participant during the applicable period. Except as provided
       elsewhere in this plan, the applicable period shall be the plan year.
       Furthermore, notwithstanding the above, the definition of compensation
       includes elective contributions made by the Employer on the Employee's
       behalf. "Elective contributions" are amounts excludible from the
       Employee's gross income under Code Section 402(a)(8) (relating to a Code 
       Section 401(k) arrangement), Code Section 402(h) (relating to a 
       Simplified Employee Pension), Code Section 125 (relating to a cafeteria
       plan) or Code Section 403(b) (relating to a tax-sheltered annuity) and 
       contributed at the Employee's election. The term "Compensation" does 
       not include:

       (A)    Employer contributions (other than "elective contributions") to a
              plan of deferred compensation to the extent the contributions are
              not included in the gross income of the Employee for the taxable
              year in which contributed, on behalf of an Employee to a
              Simplified Employee Pension Plan to the extent such contributions
              are excludible from the Employee's gross income, and any
              distributions from a plan of deferred compensation, regardless of
              whether such amounts are includible in the gross income of the
              Employee when distributed.
         
       (B)    Amounts realized from the exercise of a non-qualified stock
              option, or when restricted stock (or property) held by an
              Employee either becomes freely transferable or is no longer
              subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture.
         
       (C)    Amounts realized from the sale, exchange or other disposition of
              stock acquired under a qualified stock option.
         
       (D)    Other amounts which receive special tax benefits, such as
              premiums for group term life insurance (but only to the extent
              that the premiums are not includible in the gross income of the
              Employee), or contributions made by an Employer (whether or not
              under a salary reduction agreement) towards the purchase of an
              annuity contract described in Code Section 403(b) (whether or 
              not the contributions are excludible from the gross income of the
              Employee), other than "elective contributions," if elected in the
              Employer's Adoption Agreement.

       Any reference in this Plan to Compensation is a reference to the
       definition in this Section 1.12, unless the Plan reference specifies a
       modification to this definition. The Advisory Committee will take into
       account only Compensation actually paid for the relevant period.

       For any Plan Year beginning after December 31, 1988, the Advisory
       Committee must take into account only the first $200,000 (or such larger
       amount as the Commissioner of Internal Revenue may prescribe under Code
       Section 415(d)) of any Participant's Compensation, except that the dollar
       increase in effect on January 1 of any calendar year is effective for
       years beginning in such calendar year and the first adjustment to the
       $200,000 limitation is effected on January 1,1990. If a plan determines
       compensation on a period of time that contains fewer than 12 calendar
       months, then the annual compensation limit is an amount equal to the
       annual compensation limit for the calendar year in which the
       compensation period begins multiplied by the ratio obtained by dividing
       the number of full months in the period by 12.  The $200,000
       Compensation limitation applies to the combined Compensation of the
       Employee and of any family member aggregated with the Employee under
       Section 1.09 and who is either (i) the Employee's spouse; or (ii) the
       Employee's lineal descendant who has not attained age 19 before the
       close of the year. If, as a result of the application of such rules, the
       adjusted $200,000 limitation is exceeded, then (except for purposes of
       determining the portion of compensation up to the integration level if
       this plan provides for permitted disparity, the Advisory Committee will
       apply the contribution and allocation provisions of Article III by
       prorating the $200,000 (or adjusted) limitation among the affected
       individuals in proportion to each such individual's Compensation
       determined prior to application of this limitation.

PLAN DOCUMENT



         NONDISCRIMINATION. For purposes of determining whether the Plan
         discriminates in favor of Highly Compensated Employees: Compensation
         means Compensation as defined in this Section 1.12.

         Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, compensation for a participant
         in a defined contribution plan who is permanently and totally disabled
         (as defined in Code Section 22(e)(3)) is the compensation such
         Participant would have received for the limitation year if the
         participant had been paid at the rate of compensation paid immediately
         before becoming permanently and totally disabled; such imputed
         compensation for the disabled Participant may be taken into account
         only if the participant is not a highly compensated employee (as
         defined in Code Section 414(g)) and contributions made on behalf of 
         such participant are nonforfeitable when made.

1.13     "EARNED INCOME" means net earnings from self-employment in the trade
         or business with respect to which the Employer has established the
         Plan, provided personal services of the individual are a material
         income producing factor. The Advisory Committee will determine net
         earnings without regard to items excluded from gross income and the
         deductions allocable to those items. Net earnings are reduced by
         contributions by the employer to a qualified plan to the extent
         deductible under Code Section 404. The Advisory Committee will 
         determine net earnings after the deduction allowed to the 
         Self-Employed Individual for all contributions made by the Employer 
         to a qualified plan and, for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 
         1989, the deduction allowed to the Self-Employed under Code 
         Section 164(f) for self-employment taxes.

1.14     "ACCOUNT" means the separate account(s) which the Advisory Committee
         or the Trustee maintains for a Participant under the Employer's Plan.

1.15     "ACCRUED BENEFIT" means the amount standing in a Participant's
         Account(s) as of any date derived from both Employer contributions and
         Employee contributions and earnings thereon including rollovers
         whether vested before or after death and including the proceeds of
         insurance contracts on the participant's life, if any.

1.16     "NONFORFEITABLE" means a Participant's or Beneficiary's unconditional
         claim, legally enforceable against the Plan, to the Participant's
         Accrued Benefit.

1.17     "PLAN YEAR" means the fiscal year, of the Plan, the consecutive month
         period specified in the Employer's Adoption Agreement. The Employer's
         Adoption Agreement also must specify the "Limitation Year" applicable
         to the limitations on allocations described in Article III. If the
         Employer maintains Paired Plans, each Plan must have the same Plan
         Year.

1.18     "EFFECTIVE DATE" of this Plan is the date specified in the Employer's
         Adoption Agreement.

1.19     "PLAN ENTRY DATE" means the first day of the Plan Year or the first
         day of the sixth month of the Plan Year.

1.20     "ACCOUNTING DATE" is the last day of an Employer's Plan Year. Unless
         otherwise specified in the Plan, the Advisory Committee will make all
         Plan allocations for a particular Plan Year as of the Accounting Date
         of that Plan Year.

1.21     "TRUST" means the separate Trust created under the Employer's Plan.

1.22     "TRUST FUND" means all property of every kind held or acquired by the
         Trustee under the Employer's Plan, other than incidental benefit
         insurance contracts.

1.23     "NONTRANSFERABLE ANNUITY" means an annuity which by its terms provides
         that it may not be sold, assigned, discounted, pledged as collateral
         for a loan or security for the performance of an obligation or for any
         purpose to any person other than Kemper Investors Life Insurance
         Company. If the Trustee distributes an annuity contract, the contract
         must be a Nontransferable Annuity.

1.24     "ERISA" means the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
         amended.

l.25     "CODE" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

1.26     "SERVICE" means any period of time the Employee is in the employ of
         the Employer, including any period the Employee is on an unpaid leave
         of absence authorized by the Employer under a uniform,
         nondiscriminatory policy applicable to all Employees. "Separation from
         Service" means a separation from Service with the Employer maintaining
         this Plan.

1.27     "HOUR OF SERVICE" means:


         (A)     Each Hour of Service for which the Employer, either directly
                 or indirectly, pays an Employee, or for which the Employee is
                 entitled to payment, for the performance of duties for the
                 Employer. The Advisory Committee credits Hours of Service
                 under this paragraph (a) to the Employee for the computation
                 period in which the Employee performs the duties, irrespective
                 of when paid;

         (B)     Each Hour of Service for back pay, irrespective of mitigation
                 of damages, to which the Employer has agreed or for which the
                 Employee has received an award. The Advisory Committee credits
                 Hours of Service under this paragraph (b) to the Employee for
                 the computation period(s) to which the award or the agreement
                 pertains rather than for the computation period in which the
                 award, agreement or payment is made; and





                                       3
<PAGE>   38

         (C)     Each Hour of Service for which the Employer, either directly
                 or indirectly, pays an Employee, or for which the Employee is
                 entitled to payment (irrespective of whether the employment
                 relationship is terminated) for reasons other than for the
                 performance of duties during a computation period, such as
                 leave of absence, vacation, holiday, sick leave, illness,
                 incapacity (including disability), layoff, jury duty or
                 military duty. The Advisory Committee will credit no more than
                 501 Hours of Service under this paragraph (c) to an Employee
                 on account of any single continuous period during which the
                 Employee does not perform any duties (whether or not such
                 period occurs during a single computation period). The
                 Advisory Committee credits Hours of Service under this
                 paragraph (c) in accordance with the rules of paragraphs (b)
                 and (c) of Labor Reg. Section 2530.200b-2, which the Plan, by 
                 this reference, specifically incorporates in full within this
                 paragraph (c).

         The Advisory Committee will not credit an Hour of Service under more
         than one of the above paragraphs. A computation period for purposes of
         this Section 1.27 is the Plan Year, Year of Service period, Break in
         Service period or other period, as determined under the Plan provision
         for which the Advisory Committee is measuring an Employee's Hours of
         Service. The Advisory Committee will resolve any ambiguity with
         respect to the crediting of an Hour of Service in favor of the
         Employee.

         An Employee for whom a record of hours worked is not maintained shall
         be credited with 45 Hours of Service for each week in which he or she
         completes at least one Hour of Service.

         Solely for purposes of determining whether the Employee incurs a Break
         in Service under any provision of this Plan, the Advisory Committee
         must credit Hours of Service during an Employee's unpaid absence
         period due to maternity or paternity leave. The Advisory Committee
         considers an Employee on maternity or paternity leave if the
         Employee's absence is due to the Employee's pregnancy, the birth of
         the Employee's child, the placement with the Employee of an adopted
         child, or the care of the Employee's child immediately following the
         child's birth or placement. The Advisory Committee credits Hours of
         Service under this paragraph on the basis of the number of Hours of
         Service the Employee would receive if he were paid during the absence
         period or, if the Advisory Committee cannot determine the number of
         Hours of Service the Employee would receive, on the basis of 8 hours
         per day during the absence period. The Advisory Committee will credit
         only the number (not exceeding 501) of Hours of Service necessary to
         prevent an Employee's Break in Service. The Advisory Committee credits
         all Hours of Service described in this paragraph to the computation
         period in which the absence period begins or, if the Employee does not
         need these Hours of Service to prevent a Break in Service in the
         computation period in which his absence period begins, the Advisory
         Committee credits these Hours of Service to the immediately following
         computation period.

         Hours of service will also be credited for any individual considered
         an employee for purposes of this Plan under Code Section 414(n) or
         Section 414(o) and the regulations thereunder.

1.28     "DISABILITY" means inability to engage in any substantial gainful
         activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental
         impairment that can be expected to result in death or which has lasted
         or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12
         months. The permanence and degree of such impairment shall be
         supported by medical evidence. The Plan considers a Participant
         disabled on the date the Advisory Committee determines the Participant
         satisfies the definition of disability. The Advisory Committee may
         require a Participant to submit to a physical examination in order to
         confirm disability. The Advisory Committee will apply the provisions
         of this Section 1.28 in a nondiscriminatory, consistent and uniform
         manner.

1.29     "SERVICE FOR PREDECESSOR EMPLOYER"
         If the Employer maintains the plan of a predecessor employer, the Plan
         treats service of the Employee with the predecessor employer as
         service with the Employer. If the Employer does not maintain the plan
         of a predecessor employer, the Plan does not credit service with the
         predecessor employer.
        
1.30     "RELATED EMPLOYERS"
         A related group is a controlled group of corporations (as
         defined in Code Section 414(b)), trades or businesses (whether or not
         incorporated) which are under common control (as defined in Code
         Section 414(c)), or an affiliated service group (as defined in Code
         Section 414(m) or in Code Section 414(o)). If the Employer is a member
         of a related group, the term "Employer" includes the related group
         members for purposes of crediting Hours of Service, determining Years
         of Service and Breaks in Service under Articles II and V, applying the
         limitations on allocations in Part 2 of Article III, applying the top
         heavy rules and the minimum allocation requirements of Article III,
         the definitions of Employee, Highly Compensated Employee, Compensation
         and Leased Employee, and for any other purpose required by the
         applicable Code section or by a Plan provision. However, an Employer
         may contribute to the Plan only by being a signatory to the Execution
         Page of the Adoption Agreement or to a Participation Agreement to the
         Employer's Adoption Agreement. If one or more of the Employer's
         related group members becomes Participating Employers by executing a
         Participation Agreement to the Employer's Adoption Agreement, the term
         "Employer" includes the participating related group members, for all
         purposes of the Plan, and "Plan Administrator" means the Employer that
         is the signatory to the Execution Page of the Adoption Agreement.

         All Employees of the Employer or of any member of the Employer's
         related group, are eligible to participate in the Plan, irrespective
         of whether the related group member directly employing the Employee is
         a Participating Employer.

PLAN DOCUMENT

1.31     "LEASED EMPLOYEES"
         The Plan treats a Leased Employee as an Employee of the Employer. A
         Leased Employee is an individual (who otherwise is not an Employee of
         the Employer) who, pursuant to a leasing agreement between the
         Employer and any other person, has performed services for the Employer
         (or for the Employer and any persons related to the Employer
         determined in accordance with Code Section 414(n)(6) on a substantially
         full-time basis for at least one year and who performs services
         historically performed by employees in the Employer's business field.
         If a Leased Employee is treated as an Employee by reason of this
         Section 1.31 of the Plan, "Compensation" includes Compensation from
         the leasing organization which is attributable to services performed
         for the Employer. Contributions or benefits provided a leased employee
         by the leasing organization which are attributable to services
         performed for the recipient employer shall be treated as provided by
         the recipient employer.

         SAFE HARBOR PLAN EXCEPTION. The Plan does not treat a Leased Employee
         as an Employee if the leasing organization covers the employee in a
         safe harbor plan and, prior to application of this safe harbor plan
         exception, 20% or less of the Employer's Employees (other than Highly
         Compensated Employees) are Leased Employees. A safe harbor plan is a
         money purchase pension plan providing immediate participation, full
         and immediate vesting, and a nonintegrated contribution formula equal
         to at least 10% of the employee's compensation without regard to
         employment by the leasing organization on a specified date. The safe
         harbor plan must determine the 10% contribution on the basis of
         compensation as defined in Code Section 415(c)(3) plus elective 
         contributions (as defined in Section 1.12).

         OTHER REQUIREMENTS. The Advisory Committee must apply this Section
         1.31 in a manner consistent with Code Sections 414(n) and 414(o) and 
         the regulations issued under those Code sections. If a Leased 
         Employee is a Participant in the Plan and also participates in a 
         defined contribution plan maintained by the leasing organization, 
         then the Advisory Committee will determine the Leased Employee's 
         allocation of Employer contributions under Article III without 
         taking into account the Leased Employee's allocation, if any, under 
         the leasing organization's plan.

1.32     "SPECIAL RULES FOR OWNER-EMPLOYEES"
         The following special provisions and restrictions apply to
         Owner-Employees:

         If this plan provides contributions or benefits for one or more
         owner-employees who control both the business for which this plan is
         established and one or more other trades or businesses, this plan and
         the plan established for other trades or businesses must, when looked
         at as a single plan, satisfy sections 401(a) and (d) for the
         employees of this and all other trades or businesses.

         If the plan provides contributions or benefits for one or more
         owner-employees who control one or more other trades or businesses,
         the employees of the other trades or businesses must be included in a
         plan which satisfies sections 401(a) and (d) and which provides
         contributions and benefits not less favorable than provided for
         owner-employees under this plan.

         If an individual is covered as an owner-employee under the plans of
         two or more trades or businesses which are not controlled and the
         individual controls a trade or business, then the contributions or
         benefits of the employees under the plan of the trades or businesses
         which are controlled must be as favorable as those provided for him
         under the most favorable plan of the trade or business which is not
         controlled.

         For purposes of the preceding paragraphs, an owner-employee, or two or
         more owner-employees, will be considered to control a trade or
         business if the owner-employee, or two or more owner-employees
         together:

         (1)     own the entire interest in an unincorporated trade or
                 business, or

         (2)     in the case of a partnership, own more than 50 percent of
                 either the capital interest or the profits interest in the 
                 partnership.

         For purposes of the preceding sentence, an owner-employee, or two or
         more owner-employees shall be treated as owning any interest in a
         partnership which is owned, directly or indirectly, by a partnership
         which such owner-employee, or such two or more owner-employees, are
         considered to control within the meaning of the preceding sentence.

1.33     "TAXABLE WAGE BASE" means 100% of the taxable wage base as determined
         under Section 230 of the Social Security Act in effect on the first
         day of the plan year.

1.34     "PAIRED PLANS" means the Employer has adopted two Standardized Plan
         Adoption Agreements offered with this Kemper Retirement Plan Prototype
         Keogh/Corporate, one Adoption Agreement being a Paired Profit Sharing
         Plan and one Adoption Agreement being a Paired Pension Plan. A Paired
         Profit Sharing Plan may include a Code Section 401(k) arrangement. A 
         Paired Pension Plan must be a money purchase pension plan.  Paired 
         Plans must be the subject of a favorable opinion letter issued by 
         the National Office of the Internal Revenue Service.

<PAGE>   40



1.35     "MEMBER OF A COLLECTIVE BARGAINING UNIT" means any employee who is
         included in a unit and whose terms and conditions of employment are
         covered by a collective bargaining agreement between the Employer and
         employee representatives which does not provide for participation in
         the Plan, provided that there is evidence that, in connection with
         such agreement, retirement benefits were the subject of good-faith
         bargaining. For this purpose, the term "employee representatives" does
         not include any organization more than half of whose members are
         employees who are owners, officers or executives of the Employer.

1.36     "DESIGNATED INVESTMENT COMPANY" means any registered investment
         company the investment manager or principal underwriter of which is
         Kemper Financial Services, Inc. or an affiliate.

                                   ARTICLE II
                             EMPLOYEE PARTICIPANTS

2.01     "ELIGIBILITY"
         Each Employee becomes a Participant in the Plan in accordance with the
         participation option selected by the Employer in its Adoption
         Agreement. If this Plan is a restated Plan, each Employee who was a
         Participant in the Plan on the day before the Effective Date continues
         as a Participant in the Plan.

2.02     "YEAR OF SERVICE - PARTICIPATION"
         For purposes of an Employee's participation in the Plan under Adoption
         Agreement Section 2.01, the Plan takes into account all of his Years
         of Service with the Employer, except that if an Employee has a Break
         in Service before satisfying the Plan's requirement for eligibility,
         Service before such break will not be taken into account. "Year of
         Service" means a 12 consecutive month period during which the Employee
         completes not less than 1,000 Hours of Service, measuring the
         beginning of the first 12 month period from the Employment
         Commencement Date, and each anniversary thereof. "Employment
         Commencement Date" means the date on which the Employee first performs
         an Hour of Service for the Employer.

2.03     "BREAK IN SERVICE - PARTICIPATION"
         An Employee incurs a "Break in Service" if during any 12 consecutive
         month period he does not complete more than 500 Hours of Service with
         the Employer. The "12 consecutive month period" under this Section 2.03
         is the same 12 consecutive month period for which the Plan measures
         "Years of Service" under Section 2.02.

         TWO-YEAR ELIGIBILITY. If the Employer elects a 2 years of service
         condition for eligibility purposes under Adoption Agreement Section
         2.01, the Plan treats an Employee who incurs a one year Break in
         Service and who has never become a Participant as a new Employee on
         the date he first performs an Hour of Service for the Employer after
         the Break in Service.

2.04     "PARTICIPATION UPON RE-EMPLOYMENT"
         A Participant whose employment terminates re-enters the Plan as a
         Participant on the date of his re-employment. An Employee who
         satisfies the Plans' eligibility conditions but who terminates
         employment prior to becoming a Participant becomes a Participant on
         the later of the Plan Entry Date on which he would have entered the
         Plan had he not terminated employment or the date of his
         re-employment.  Any Employee who terminates employment prior to
         satisfying the Plan's eligibility conditions becomes a Participant in
         accordance with Adoption Agreement Section 2.01.

2.05     "CHANGE IN EMPLOYEE STATUS"
         If a Participant has not incurred a Separation from Service but ceases
         to be eligible to participate in the Plan, by reason of becoming a
         member of a Collective Bargaining Unit, the Advisory Committee must
         treat the Participant as an excluded employee during the period such a
         Participant is a Member of a Collective Bargaining Unit. The Advisory
         Committee determines a Participant's sharing in the allocation of
         Employer contributions by disregarding his Compensation paid by the
         Employer for services rendered in his capacity as a Member of a
         Collective Bargaining Unit. However, during such period of exclusion,
         the Participant, without regard to employment classification,
         continues to receive credit for vesting under Article V for each
         included Year of Service and the Participant' Account continues to
         share fully in Trust Fund allocations under Section 9.11.

         If an excluded employee who is not a Participant becomes eligible to
         participate in the Plan by reason of a change in employment
         classification, he will participate in the Plan immediately if he has
         satisfied the eligibility conditions of Section 2.01 and would have
         been a Participant had he not been an excluded employee during his
         period of Service. Furthermore, the Plan takes into account all of the
         Participant's included Years of Service with the Employer as an
         Excluded Employee for purposes of vesting credit under Article V.

         In the event a participant is no longer a member of an eligible class
         of employees and becomes ineligible to participate but has not
         incurred a break in service, such employee will participate
         immediately upon returning to an eligible class of employees. If such
         participant incurs a break in service, eligibility will be determined
         under the break in service rules of the plan.

2.06     "ELECTION NOT TO PARTICIPATE"
         The Plan does not permit an otherwise eligible Employee nor any
         Participant to elect not to participate in the Plan.

                                  ARTICLE III

                     EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS AND FORFEITURES

PART 1. AMOUNT OF EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS AND PLAN ALLOCATIONS:

SECTIONS 3.01 THROUGH 3.06

3.01     "AMOUNT"
         For each Plan Year, the Employer contributes to the Trust the amount
         determined by application of the contribution option selected by the
         Employer in its Adoption Agreement. The Employer may not make a
         contribution to the Trust for any Plan Year to the extent the
         contribution would exceed the Participants' Maximum Permissible
         Amounts.

         The Trustee, upon written request from the Employer, must return to
         the Employer the amount of the Employer's contribution made by the
         Employer by mistake of fact or the amount of the Employer's
         contribution disallowed as a deduction under Code Section 404. The
         Trustee will not return any portion of the Employer's contribution
         under the provisions of this paragraph more than one year after:

         (A) The Employer made the contribution by mistake of fact; or

         (B) The disallowance of the contribution as a deduction, and then,
             only to the extent of the disallowance.

         The Trustee will not increase the amount of the Employer contribution
         returnable under this Section 3.01 for any earnings attributable to
         the contribution, but the Trustee will decrease the Employer
         contribution returnable for any losses attributable to it. The Trustee
         may require the Employer to furnish it whatever evidence the Trustee
         deems necessary to enable the Trustee to confirm the amount the
         Employer has requested be returned is properly returnable under ERISA.

3.02     "DETERMINATION OF CONTRIBUTION"
         The Employer, from its records, determines the amount of any
         contributions to be made by it to the Trust under the terms of the 
         Plan.

3.03     "TIME OF PAYMENT OF CONTRIBUTION"
         The Employer may pay its contribution for each Plan Year in one or
         more installments without interest. The Employer must make its
         contribution to the Trustee within the time prescribed by the Code or
         applicable Treasury regulations.

3.04     "RESERVED"

3.05     "ACCRUAL OF BENEFIT"
         The accrual of benefit shall be determined on the basis of the Plan
         Year. In determining the amount of the Employer contribution to a
         participant's account, only compensation with respect to that part of
         a Plan Year the employee is actually a participant shall be taken into
         account.

         Employer contributions will be allocated to each Participant who
         either completes 500 hours of service during the Plan Year or who is
         employed by the Employer on the last day of the Plan Year.

PART 2. LIMITATIONS ON ALLOCATIONS: SECTIONS 3.06 THROUGH 3.09

         [Note: Sections 3.06 through 3.09 apply only to Participants in this
         Plan who do not participate, and who have never participated, in
         another qualified plan or in a welfare benefit fund as defined in Code
         Section 419(e) or an individual medical account as defined in Code
         Section 415(1)(2) maintained by the Employer.

3.06     The amount of Annual Additions which the Advisory Committee may
         allocate under this Plan on a Participant's behalf for a Limitation
         Year may not exceed the Maximum Permissible Amount. If the amount the
         Employer otherwise would contribute to the Participant's Account would
         cause the Annual Additions for the Limitation Year to exceed the
         Maximum Permissible Amount, the Employer will reduce the amount of its
         contribution so the Annual Additions for the Limitation Year will
         equal the Maximum Permissible Amount.

3.07     Prior to the determination of the Participant's actual Compensation
         for a Limitation Year, the Advisory Committee may determine the
         Maximum Permissible Amount on the basis of the Participant's estimated
         annual Compensation for such Limitation Year. The Advisory Committee
         must make this determination on a reasonable and uniform basis for all
         Participants similarly situated.

3.08     As soon as is administratively feasible after the end of the
         Limitation Year, the Advisory Committee will determine the Maximum
         Permissible Amount for such Limitation Year on the basis of the
         Participant's actual Compensation for such Limitation Year.

3.09     If, pursuant to Section 3.08 there is an Excess Amount with respect to
         a Participant for a Limitation Year, the Advisory Committee will
         dispose of such Excess Amount as follows:





                                       7
<PAGE>   42

         (A)     The Advisory Committee will return any nondeductible voluntary
                 Employee contributions to the Participant to the extent the
                 return would reduce the Excess Amount.

         (B)     If after the application of paragraph (a) an excess amount
                 still exists, and the Participant is covered by the Plan at
                 the end of the Limitation Year, the Excess Amount in the
                 Participant's account will be used to reduce Employer
                 Contributions (including any allocation of forfeitures) for
                 such Participant in the next Limitation Year, and each
                 succeeding Limitation Year if necessary.

         (C)     If, after the application of paragraph (b), an Excess Amount
                 still exists, and the Plan does not cover the Participant at
                 the end of the Limitation Year, then the Advisory Committee
                 will hold the Excess Amount unallocated in a suspense account.
                 The Advisory Committee will apply the suspense account to
                 reduce Employer Contributions for all remaining Participants
                 in the next Limitation Year, and in each succeeding Limitation
                 Year if necessary.

         (D)     The Advisory Committee will not distribute any Excess
                 Amount(s) to Participants or to former Participants. If a
                 suspense account is in existence at any time during a
                 limitation year pursuant to this section, it will not
                 participate in the allocation of the trust's investment gains
                 and losses. If a suspense account is in existence at any time
                 during a particular limitation year, all amounts in the
                 suspense account must be allocated and reallocated to
                 participants' accounts before any employer or any employee
                 contributions may be made to the plan for that limitation
                 year.

         [Note: Sections 3.10 through 3.15 apply if, in addition to this Plan,
         the Participant is covered under another qualified master or prototype
         defined contribution plan maintained by the Employer, a welfare
         benefit fund, as defined in Code Section 419(e) maintained by the 
         Employer or an individual medical account, as defined in Code Section 
         415(1)(2) maintained by the Employer which provides an annual 
         addition during any Limitation Year.]

3.10     The annual additions which may be credited to a participant's account
         under this plan for any such limitation year will not exceed the
         maximum permissible amount reduced by the annual additions credited to
         a participant's account under the other plans and welfare benefit
         funds for the same limitation year. If the annual additions with
         respect to the participant under other defined contribution plans and
         welfare benefit funds maintained by the employer are less than the
         maximum permissible amount and the employer contribution that would
         otherwise be contributed or allocated to the participant's account
         under this plan would cause the annual additions for the limitation
         year to exceed this limitation, the amount contributed or allocated
         will be reduced so that the annual additions under all such plans and
         funds for the limitation year will equal the maximum permissible
         amount. If the annual additions with respect to the participant under
         such other defined contribution plans and welfare benefit funds in the
         aggregate are equal to or greater than the maximum permissible amount,
         no amount will be contributed or allocated to the participant's
         account under this plan for the limitation year.

3.11     Prior to the determination of the Participant's actual Compensation
         for the Limitation Year, the Advisory Committee may determine the
         amounts referred to in 3.10 above on the basis of the Participant's
         estimated annual Compensation for such Limitation Year. The Advisory
         Committee will make this determination on a reasonable and uniform
         basis for all Participants similarly situated.

3.12     As soon as is administratively feasible after the end of the
         Limitation Year, the Advisory Committee will determine the amounts
         referred to in 3.10 on the basis of the Participant's actual
         Compensation for such Limitation Year.

3.13     If pursuant to Section 3.12, a Participant's Annual Additions under
         this Plan and all such other plans result in an Excess Amount, such
         Excess Amount will consist of the Amounts last allocated. The Advisory
         Committee will determine the Amounts last allocated by treating the
         Annual Additions attributable to a welfare benefit fund or individual
         medical account as allocated first, irrespective of the actual
         allocation date under the welfare benefit fund.

3.14     If the Advisory Committee allocates an Excess Amount to a Participant
         on an allocation date of this Plan which coincides with an allocation
         date of another plan, the Excess Amount attributed to this Plan equals
         the product of:

         (i)     the total Excess Amount allocated as of such date (including
                 any amount which the Advisory Committee would have allocated
                 but for the limitations of Code Section 415), times

         (ii)    the ratio of (1) the amount allocated to the Participant as of
                 such date under this Plan divided by (2) the total amount
                 allocated as of such date under all qualified master or
                 prototype defined contribution plans (determined without
                 regard to the limitations of Code Section 415).

3.15     The Advisory Committee will dispose of any Excess Amounts attributed
         to this Plan as provided in Section 3.09.

         [Note: Section 3.16 applies only to Participants who, in addition to
         this Plan, participate in one or more qualified plans which are
         qualified defined contribution plans other than a Master or Prototype
         plan maintained by the Employer during the Limitation Year.]

PLAN DOCUMENT

3.16     "SPECIAL ALLOCATION LIMITATION"
         The amount of Annual Additions which the Advisory Committee may
         allocate under this Plan on behalf of any Participant are limited in
         accordance with the provisions of Section 3.10 through 3.15, as though
         the other plan were a Master or Prototype plan.

3.17     "DEFINED BENEFIT PLAN LIMITATION"
         If the Employer maintains a defined benefit plan, or has ever
         maintained a defined benefit plan which the Employer has terminated,
         then the sum of the defined benefit plan fraction and the defined
         contribution plan fraction for any Participant for any Limitation Year
         must not exceed 1.0. The annual additions which may be credited to the
         participant's account under this plan for any limitation year will be
         limited in accordance with Section 3.17 of the adoption agreement. To
         the extent necessary to satisfy the limitations of this Section 3.17,
         the Employer will reduce the Participant's projected annual benefit
         under the defined benefit plan under which the Participant
         participates. The Employer also must provide in an addendum to its
         Adoption Agreement the manner in which the Plan will satisfy the
         top-heavy requirements of Code Section 416 after taking into account 
         the existence (or prior maintenance) of the defined benefit plan.

3.18     "DEFINITIONS - ARTICLE III"
         For purposes of this Article III, the following terms mean:

         (A)     "ANNUAL ADDITION" - The sum of the following amounts
                 allocated on behalf of a Participant for a Limitation Year, of
                 (i) all Employer contributions; (ii) all forfeitures; and
                 (iii) all Employee contributions. Except to the extent
                 provided in Treasury regulations, Annual Additions include
                 excess contributions described in Code Section 401(k), excess 
                 aggregate contributions described in Code Section 401(m) and
                 excess deferrals described in Code Section 402(g),
                 irrespective of whether the plan distributes or forfeits such
                 excess amounts. Annual Additions also include Excess Amounts
                 reapplied to reduce Employer contributions under Section 3.09. 
                 Amounts allocated after March 31, 1984, to an individual
                 medical account (as defined in Code Section 415(1)(2))
                 included as part of a defined benefit pension or annuity plan
                 maintained by the Employer are Annual Additions. Furthermore,
                 Annual Additions include contributions paid or accrued after
                 December 31, 1985, for taxable years ending after December
                 31,1985, attributable to post-retirement medical benefits
                 allocated to the separate account of a key employee (as
                 defined in Code Section 419A(d)(3)) under a welfare benefit
                 fund (as defined in Code Section 419(e)) maintained by the
                 Employer. For this purpose, any excess amount applied in the
                 limitation year to reduce employer contributions will be
                 considered annual additions for such   limitation year.
        
         (B)     "COMPENSATION" - For purposes of applying the limitations of
                 Part 2 of this Article III, "Compensation" means a
                 participant's earned income, wages, salaries, and fees for
                 professional services and other amounts received (without
                 regard to whether or not an amount is paid in cash) for
                 personal services actually rendered in the course of
                 employment with the employer maintaining the plan to the
                 extent that the amounts are includible in gross income
                 (including, but not limited to, commissions paid salesmen,
                 compensation for services on the basis of a percentage of
                 profits, commissions on insurance premiums, tips, bonuses,
                 fringe benefits, reimbursements and expense allowances), and
                 excluding the following:

                 (I)      Employer contributions to a plan of deferred
                          compensation which are not includible in the
                          employee's gross income for the taxable year in which
                          contributed, or employer contributions under a
                          simplified employee pension plan to the extent such
                          contributions are deductible by the employee, or any
                          distributions from a plan of deferred compensation;

                 (II)     Amounts realized from the exercise of a nonqualified
                          stock option, or when restricted stock (or property)
                          held by the employee either becomes freely
                          transferable or is no longer subject to a substantial
                          risk of forfeiture;

                 (III)    Amounts realized from the sale, exchange or other
                          disposition of stock acquired under a qualified stock
                          option; and

                 (IV)     other amounts which received special tax benefits, or
                          contributions made by the employer (whether or not
                          under a salary reduction agreement) towards the
                          purchase of an annuity described in section 403(b) of
                          the Internal Revenue Code (whether or not the amounts
                          are actually excludible from the gross income of the
                          employee).

         For purposes of applying the limitations of this article, 
         compensation for a limitation year is the compensation actually paid 
         or includible in gross income during such limitation year.

         Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, compensation for a participant
         in a defined contribution plan who is permanently and totally disabled
         (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) is the compensation such
         participant would have received for the limitation year if the
         participant would have received for the limitation year if the
         participant had been paid at the rate of compensation paid immediately
         before becoming permanently and totally disabled; such imputed
         compensation for the disabled participant may be taken into account
         only if the participant is not a highly compensated employee (as
         defined in Section 414(g) of the Code) and contributions made on 
         behalf of such participant are nonforfeitable when made.

         (C)     "EMPLOYER" - The Employer that adopts this Plan and any
                 related employers described in Section 1.30. Solely for
                 purposes of applying the limitations of Part 2 of this Article
                 III, the Advisory Committee will determine related employers
                 described in Section 1.30 by modifying Code Sections 414(b)
                 and (c) in accordance with Code Section 415(h).

         (D)     "EXCESS AMOUNT" - The excess of the Participant's Annual
                 Additions for the Limitation Year over the Maximum Permissible
                 Amount.

         (E)     "LIMITATION YEAR" - The period selected by the Employer under
                 Adoption Agreement Section 1.17. All qualified plans of the
                 Employer must use the same Limitation Year. If the Employer
                 amends the Limitation Year to a different 12 consecutive
                 month period, the new Limitation Year must begin on a date
                 within the Limitation Year for which the Employer makes the
                 amendment, creating a short Limitation Year.

         (F)     "MASTER OR PROTOTYPE PLAN" - A plan the form of which is the
                 subject of a favorable opinion letter from the Internal
                 Revenue Service.

         (G)     "MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE AMOUNT" - The lesser of (i) $30,000 (or,
                 if greater, one-fourth of the defined benefit dollar
                 limitation under Code Section 415(b)(1)(A)), or (ii) 25% of the
                 Participant's Compensation for the Limitation Year. If there
                 is a short Limitation Year because of a change in Limitation
                 Year, the Advisory Committee will multiply the $30,000 (or
                 adjusted) limitation by the following fraction:

                 Number of months in the short Limitation Year: 12
                 The 25% compensation limitation shall not apply to any
                 contribution for medical benefits (within the meaning of Code
                 Section 401(h) or 419A(f)(2) which is otherwise treated as an
                 annual addition under Code Section 415(l)(1) or 419A(d)(2).

                 (H)     "DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN" - A retirement plan which
                 provides for an individual account for each participant and
                 for benefits based solely on the amount contributed to the
                 participant's account, and any income, expenses, gains and
                 losses, and any forfeitures of accounts of other participants
                 which the plan may allocate to such participant's account. The
                 Advisory Committee must treat all defined contribution plans
                 (whether or not terminated) maintained by the Employer as a
                 single plan.  Solely for purposes of the limitations of Part 2
                 of this Article III, the Advisory Committee will treat
                 employee contributions made to a defined benefit plan
                 maintained by the Employer as a separate defined contribution
                 plan. The Advisory Committee also will treat as a defined
                 contribution plan an individual medical account (as defined in
                 Code Section 415(1)(2)) included as part of a defined benefit
                 plan maintained by the Employer and, for taxable years ending
                 after December 31,1985, a welfare benefit fund under Code
                 Section 419(e) maintained by the Employer to the extent there
                 are post-retirement medical benefits allocated to the separate
                 account of a key employee (as defined in Code Section  
                 419A(d)(3)).
        
         (I)     "DEFINED BENEFIT PLAN" - A retirement plan which does not
                 provide for individual accounts for Employer contributions.
                 The Advisory Committee must treat all defined benefit plans
                 (whether or not terminated) maintained by the Employer as a
                 single plan.

                 [Note: The definitions in paragraphs (j) and (k) apply only if
                 the limitation described in Section 3.17 applies to the
                 Employer's Plan.]

         (J)     "DEFINED BENEFIT PLAN FRACTION" -PROJECTED annual benefit of
                 the Participant under the defined benefit plan(s) The lesser of

                    (I)  125% of the dollar limitation determined under
                         Code Section 415 (b) and (d) for the Limitation Year,
                         or   

                    (II) 140% of the Participant's average Compensation
                         for his high three (3) consecutive Years of Service

                 To determine the denominator of this fraction, the
                 Advisory Committee will make any adjustment required under
                 Code Section 415(b) and will determine a Year of Service,
                 unless otherwise provided in an addendum to Adoption Agreement
                 Section 3.06, as a Plan Year in which the Employee completed
                 at least 1,000 Hours of Service. The "projected annual
                 benefit" is the annual retirement benefit (adjusted to an
                 actuarially equivalent straight life annuity if the plan
                 expresses such benefit in a form other than a straight life
                 annuity or qualified joint and survivor annuity) of the
                 Participant under the terms of the defined benefit plan on the
                 assumptions he continues employment until his normal
                 retirement age (or current age, if later) as stated in the
                 defined benefit plan, his compensation continues at the same
                 rate as in effect in the Limitation Year under consideration
                 until the date of his normal retirement age and all other
                 relevant factors used to determine benefits under the defined
                 benefit plan remain constant as of the current Limitation Year
                 for all future Limitation Years.

                 CURRENT ACCRUED BENEFIT. If the Participant accrued benefits
                 in one or more defined benefit plans maintained by the
                 Employer which were in existence on May 6, 1986, the dollar
                 limitation used in the denominator of this fraction will not
                 be less than the Participant's Current Accrued Benefit. A
                 Participant's Current Accrued Benefit is the sum of the annual
                 benefits under such defined benefit plans which the
                 Participant had accrued as of the end of the 1986 Limitation
                 Year (the last Limitation Year beginning before January
                 1, 1987), determined without regard to any cost of living
                 adjustment occurring after May 5, 1986.  This Current Accrued
                 Benefit rule applies only if the defined benefit plans
                 individually and in the aggregate satisfied the requirements
                 of Code Section 415 as in effect at the end of the 1986
                 Limitation Year.

                 Notwithstanding the above, if the participant was a
                 participant as of the first day of the first limitation year
                 beginning after December 31, 1986, in one or more defined
                 benefit plans maintained by the employer which were in
                 existence on May 6, 1986, the denominator of this fraction
                 will not be less than 125 percent of the sum of the annual
                 benefits under such plans which the participant had accrued as
                 of the close of the last limitation year beginning before
                 January 1,1987, disregarding any changes in the terms and
                 conditions of the plan after May 5, 1986. The preceding
                 sentence applies only if the defined benefit plans
                 individually and in the aggregate satisfied the requirements of
                 Section 415 for all limitation years beginning before January
                 1, 1987

         (k)     "DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN FRACTION" - Section 5.5 Defined
                 contribution fraction: A fraction, the numerator of which is
                 the sum of the annual additions to the participant's account
                 under all the defined contribution plans (whether or not
                 terminated) maintained by the employer for the current and all
                 prior limitation years (including the annual additions
                 attributable to the participant's nondeductible employee
                 contributions to all defined benefit plans, whether or not
                 terminated, maintained by the employer, and the annual
                 additions attributable to all welfare benefit funds, as
                 defined in Section 419(e) of the Code, and individual medical
                 accounts, as defined in Section 415(1)(2) of the Code,
                 maintained by the employer), and the denominator of which is
                 the sum of the maximum aggregate amounts for the current and
                 all prior limitation years of service with the employer
                 (regardless of whether a defined contribution plan was
                 maintained by the employer). The maximum aggregate amount in
                 any limitation year is the lesser of 125 percent of the
                 dollar limitation determined under Sections 415(b) and (d) of
                 the Code in effect under Section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code or
                 35 percent of the participant 's compensation for such year.

                 If the employee was a participant as of the end of the first
                 day of the first limitation year beginning after December 31,
                 1986, in one or more defined contribution plans maintained by
                 the employer which were in existence on May 6, 1986, the
                 numerator of this fraction will be adjusted if the sum of this
                 fraction and the defined benefit fraction would otherwise
                 exceed 1.0 under the terms of this plan. Under the adjustment,
                 an amount equal to the product of (l) the excess of the sum of
                 the fractions over 1.0 times (2) the denominator of this
                 fraction, will be permanently subtracted from the numerator of
                 this fraction. The adjustment is calculated using the
                 fractions as they would be computed as of the end of the last
                 limitation year beginning before January 1, 1987, and
                 disregarding any changes in the terms and conditions of the
                 plan made after May 5, 1986, but using the Section 415
                 limitation applicable to the first limitation year beginning
                 on or after January 1, 1987.

                 The annual addition for any limitation year beginning before
                 January 1, 1987, shall not be recomputed to treat all employee
                 contributions as annual additions.

                 The average compensation for the three consecutive years of
                 service with the employer that produces the highest average.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                           PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS

4.01     "PARTICIPANT ON DEDUCTIBLE CONTRIBUTIONS"
         This Plan does not permit Participant nondeductible contributions. If,
         prior to the adoption of this Plan, the Plan accepted Participant
         nondeductible contributions for a Plan Year beginning after December
         31, 1986, those contributions must satisfy the requirements of Code
         Section 401(m) and must be maintained in a separate account which
         will be nonforfeitable at all times. This Section 4.01 does not
         prohibit the Plan's acceptance of Participant nondeductible
         contributions prior to the first Plan Year commencing after the Plan
         Year in which the Employer adopts this Plan.

4.02     "PARTICIPANT DEDUCTIBLE CONTRIBUTIONS"
         The Plan will not accept Participant deductible contributions which
         are made for a taxable year beginning after December 31, 1986.
         Contributions made prior to that date will be maintained in a separate
         account which will be nonforfeitable at all times. The account will
         share in the gains and losses of the trust in the same manner as
         described in Section 9.10 of the Plan. No part of the deductible
         voluntary contribution account will be used to purchase life
         insurance. Subject to Article VI, joint and survivor annuity
         requirements (if applicable), the participant may withdraw any part of
         the deductible voluntary contribution account by making a written
         application to the Advisory Committee.

4.03     "PARTICIPANT ROLLOVER CONTRIBUTIONS"
         Any Participant, with the Employer's written consent and after filing
         with the Employer the form prescribed by the Advisory Committee, may
         contribute cash or other property to the Trust other than as a
         voluntary contribution if the contribution is a "rollover
         contribution" which the Code permits an employee to transfer either
         directly or indirectly from one qualified plan to another qualified
         plan. Before accepting a rollover contribution, the Trustee may
         require an Employee to furnish satisfactory evidence that the proposed
         transfer is in fact a "rollover contribution" which the Code permits
         an employee to make to a qualified plan. A rollover contribution is
         not an Annual Addition under Part 2 of Article III.





                                       11
<PAGE>   46

         The Employer will invest the rollover contribution in a segregated
         investment Account for the Participant's sole benefit unless the
         Employer in its sole discretion, agrees to invest the rollover
         contribution as part of the Trust Fund. The Employer will not have
         any investment responsibility with respect to a Participant's
         segregated rollover Account. The Participant, however, from time to
         time, may direct the Employer in writing as to the investment of his
         segregated rollover Account in shares of a Designated Investment
         Company, annuity contract(s) or life insurance sold or distributed by
         Kemper Financial Services, Inc. A Participant's segregated rollover
         Account alone will bear any extraordinary expenses resulting from
         investments made at the direction of the Participant. As of the
         Accounting Date (or other valuation date) for each Plan Year, the
         Advisory Committee will allocate and credit the net income (or net
         loss) from a Participant's segregated rollover Account and the
         increase or decrease in the fair market value of the assets of a
         segregated rollover Account solely to that Account. The Employer is
         not liable nor responsible for any loss resulting to any Beneficiary,
         nor to any Participant, by reason of any sale or investment made or
         other action taken pursuant to and in accordance with the direction of
         the Participant. In all other respects, the Employer will administer
         and distribute a rollover contribution in the same manner as any
         Employer contribution made to the Trust.

         An eligible Employee, prior to satisfying the Plan's eligibility
         conditions, may make a rollover contribution to the Trust to the same
         extent and in the same manner as a Participant. If an Employee makes a
         rollover contribution to the Trust prior to satisfying the Plan's
         eligibility conditions, the Advisory Committee and Trustee must treat
         the Employee as a Participant for all purposes of the Plan except the
         Employee is not a Participant for purposes of sharing in Employer
         contributions under the Plan until he actually becomes a Participant
         in the Plan. If the Employee has a Separation from Service prior to
         becoming a Participant, the Trustee will distribute his rollover
         contribution Account to him as if it were an Employer contribution
         Account.

4.04     "PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTION - FORFEITABILITY"
         A Participant's Accrued Benefit is, at all times, 100% Nonforfeitable.

4.05     "PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTION - WITHDRAWAL/DISTRIBUTION"
         A Participant, by giving prior written notice to the Trustee, may
         withdraw all or any part of the value of his Accrued Benefit derived
         from his Participant contributions described in this Article IV. A
         distribution of Participant contributions must comply with the joint
         and survivor requirements described in Article VI, if those
         requirements apply to the Participant. A Participant may not exercise
         his right to withdrawn the value of his Accrued Benefit derived from
         his Participant contributions more than once during any Plan Year. The
         Trustee, in accordance with the direction of the Advisory Committee,
         will distribute a Participant's unwithdrawn Accrued Benefit
         attributable to his Participant contributions in accordance with the
         provisions of Article VI applicable to the distribution of the
         Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit.

4.06     "PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTION - ACCRUED BENEFIT"
         The Advisory Committee must maintain, or must direct the Trustee to
         maintain, a separate Account(s) in the name of each Participant to
         reflect the Participant's Accrued Benefit under the Plan derived from
         his Participant contributions. A Participant's Accrued Benefit derived
         from his Participant contributions as of any applicable date is the
         balance of his separate Participant contribution Account(s). A
         separate account will be maintained by the trustee for the
         nondeductible employee contribution of each participant.

                                   ARTICLE V
                  TERMINATION OF SERVICE - PARTICIPANT VESTING

5.01     "NORMAL RETIREMENT AGE"
         Normal Retirement Age is age 65.

5.02     "VESTING"
         All contributions made by or on behalf of each participant, together
         with all earnings thereon, shall immediately become, and at all times
         shall remain, fully vested in such participant, and nonforfeitable.

         The minimum allocation required (to the extent required to be
         nonforfeitable under Section 416(b)) may not be forfeited under Code 
         Sections 411(a)(3)(B) or 411(a)(3)(D).

                                   ARTICLE VI
                     TIME AND METHOD OF PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

6.01     "TIME OF PAYMENT OF ACCRUED BENEFIT"
         Unless, pursuant to Section 6.03, the Participant or the Beneficiary
         elects in writing to a different time or method of payment, the
         Advisory Committee will direct the Trustee to commence distribution of
         a Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in accordance with this
         Section 6.01. A Participant must consent, in writing, to any
         distribution required under this Section 6.01 if the present value of
         the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit, at the time of the
         distribution to the Participant, exceeds $3,500 and the Participant
         has not attained the later of Normal Retirement Age or age 62.
         Furthermore, the Participant's spouse also must consent, in writing,
         to any distribution, for which Section 6.04 requires the spouse's
         consent. For all purposes of this Article VI, the term "annuity
         starting date" means the first day of the first period for which the
         Plan pays an amount as an annuity or in any other form. A distribution
         date under this Article VI unless otherwise specified within the Plan,
         is the 60th day of the Plan Year, or as soon as administratively
         practicable following that distribution date. For purposes of the
         consent requirements under this Article VI, if the present value of
         the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit, at the time of any
         distribution, exceeds $3,500, the Advisory Committee must treat that
         present value as exceeding $3,500 for purposes of all subsequent Plan
         distributions to the Participant.

         If the value of a participant's vested account balance derived from
         employer and employee contribution exceeds (or at the time of any
         prior distribution exceeded) $3,500, and the account balance is
         immediately distributable, the participant and the participant's
         spouse (or where either the participant or the spouse has died, the
         survivor) must consent to any distribution of such account balance.
         The consent of the participant and the participant's spouse shall be
         obtained in writing within the 90-day period ending on the annuity
         starting date. The annuity starting date is the first day of the first
         period for which an amount is paid an annuity or any other form.  The
         plan administrator shall notify the participant and the participant's
         spouse of the right to defer any distribution until the participant's
         account balance is no longer immediately distributable. Such
         notification shall include a general description of the material
         features, and explanation of the relative values of, the optional
         forms of benefit available under the plan in a manner that would
         satisfy the notice requirements of Code Section 417(a)(3), and shall be
         provided no less than 30 days and no more than 90 days prior to the
         annuity starting date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, only the
         participant need consent to the commencement of a distribution in the
         form of a qualified joint and survivor annuity while the account
         balance is immediately distributable. (Furthermore, if payment in the
         form of a qualified joint and survivor annuity is not required with
         respect to the participant pursuant to Section 6.04(E) of the plan, 
         only the participant need consent to the distribution of an account 
         balance that is immediately distributable.) Neither the consent of the
         participant nor the participant's spouse shall be required to the
         extent that a distribution is required to satisfy Code Section 
         401(a)(9) or to the extent that a distribution is required to satisfy 
         Code Sections 401(a)(9) or 415. In addition, upon termination of this 
         plan, if the plan does not offer an annuity option (purchased from a 
         commercial provider) and if the employer or any entity within the same
         controlled group as the employer does not maintain another defined  
         contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan as 
         defined in section 4975(e)(7) of the Code), the participant's account 
         balance may, without the participant's consent, be distributed
         to the participant. However, if any entity within the same controlled
         group as the employer maintains another defined contribution plan
         (other than an employee stock ownership plan as defined in section
         4975(e)(7) of the Code) then the participant's account balance will be
         transferred, without the participant's consent, to the other plan if
         the participant does not consent to an immediate distribution.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, only the participant need consent to 
         the commencement of a distribution in the form of a qualified joint 
         and survivor annuity while the account balance is immediately 
         distributable. (Furthermore, if payment in the form of a qualified 
         joint and survivor annuity is not required with respect to the 
         participant pursuant to Section 6.04(E) of the plan, only the
         participant need consent to the distribution for an account balance
         that is immediately distributable). Neither the consent of the
         participant nor the participant's spouse shall be required to the
         extent that a distribution is required to satisfy Section 401(a)(9)
         or Section 415 of the Code. In addition, upon termination of this
         plan, if the plan does not offer an annuity option (purchased from a
         commercial provider), the participant's account balance may, without
         the participant's consent, be distributed to the participant or
         transferred to another defined contribution plan (other than an
         employee stock ownership plan as defined in Section 4975(e)(7) of the
         Code) within the same controlled group.

         An account balance is immediately distributable if any part of the
         account balance could be distributed to the participant (or surviving
         spouse) before the participant attains or would have attained if not
         deceased the later of normal retirement age or age 62.

         For purposes of determining the applicability of the foregoing consent
         requirements to distributions made before the first day of the first
         plan year beginning after December 31, 1988, the participant's vested
         account balance shall not include amounts attributable to accumulated
         deductible employee contributions within the meaning of Section 
         72(o)(5)(B) of the Code.

         (A)     SEPARATION FROM SERVICE FOR A REASON OTHER THAN DEATH. For a
                 Participant who separates from Service with the Employer for a
                 reason other than death, the Advisory Committee will direct
                 the Trustee to commence distribution of the Participant's
                 Accrued Benefit, as follows:

                 (1)      PARTICIPANT'S NONFORFEITABLE ACCRUED BENEFIT NOT
                          EXCEEDING $3,500. In a lump sum, on the 60th day
                          following the close of the Plan Year in which the
                          Participant's Separation from Service occurs.

                 (2)      PARTICIPANT'S NONFORFEITABLE ACCRUED BENEFIT EXCEEDS
                          $3,500. In a form and at the time elected by the
                          Participant, pursuant to Section 6.03. In the absence
                          of an election by the Participant, the Advisory
                          Committee will direct the Trustee to distribute the
                          Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in a
                          lump sum (or, if applicable, the normal annuity form
                          of distribution required under Section 6.04), on the
                          60th day following the close of the Plan Year in
                          which the latest of the following events occurs: (a)
                          the Participant attains Normal Retirement Age; (b)
                          the Participant attains age 62; or (c) the
                          Participant separates from Service. Notwithstanding
                          the foregoing, the failure of a participant and
                          spouse to consent to a distribution while a benefit
                          is immediately distributable shall be deemed to be an
                          election to defer commencement of payment of any
                          benefit sufficient to satisfy this section.

                 (3)      DISABILITY. If the Participant terminates employment
                          because of disability, in lump sum, no later than the
                          60th day following the close of the Plan Year in
                          which the participant terminates employment because
                          of disability, subject to the requirements of this
                          Article VI and subject to the applicable mandatory
                          commencement dates described in Paragraphs (1) and
                          (2).

         (B)     REQUIRED BEGINNING DATE. If any distribution commencement date
                 described under Paragraph (A) of this Section 6.01, either by
                 Plan provision or by Participant election (or nonelection), is
                 later than the Participant's Required Beginning Date, the
                 Advisory Committee instead must direct the Trustee to make
                 distribution under this Section 6.01 on the Participant's
                 Required Beginning Date. A Participant's Required Beginning
                 Date is the April 1 following the close of the calendar year
                 in which the Participant attains age 70-1/2. However, if the
                 Participant, prior to incurring a Separation from Service,
                 attained age 70-1/2 by January 1, 1988, and, for the five Plan
                 Year period ending in the calendar year in which he attained
                 age 70-1/2 and for all subsequent years, the Participant was
                 not a more than 5% owner (as defined in Section 1.09(a)), the
                 Required Beginning Date is the April 1 following the close of
                 the calendar year in which the Participant separates from
                 Service, or, if earlier, the April 1 following the close of
                 the calendar year in which the Participant becomes a more than
                 5% owner. Furthermore, if a Participant attained age 70-1/2
                 during 1988 and did not incur a Separation from Service prior
                 to January 1,1989, his Required Beginning Date is April 1,
                 1990. A mandatory distribution at the Participant's Required
                 Beginning Date will be in lump sum (or, if applicable, the
                 normal annuity form of distribution required under Section
                 6.04) unless the Participant, pursuant to the provisions of
                 this Article VI, makes a valid election to receive an
                 alternative form of payment.

                 (1)      GENERAL RULE. The required beginning date of a
                          participant is the first day of April of the calendar
                          year following the calendar year in which the
                          participant attains age 70-1/2.

                 (2)      TRANSITIONAL RULES. The required beginning date of a
                          participant who attains age 70-1/2 before January
                          1, 1988, shall be determined in accordance with (a) or
                          (b) below:

                          (A)     NON-FIVE PERCENT OWNERS. The required
                                  beginning date of a participant who is not a
                                  five-percent owner is the first day of April
                                  of the calendar year following the calendar
                                  year in which the later of retirement or
                                  attainment of age 70-1/2 occurs.

                          (B)     FIVE-PERCENT OWNERS. The required beginning
                                  date of a participant who is a five-percent
                                  owner during any year beginning after
                                  December 31, 1979, is the first day of April
                                  following the later of:

                                  (i)      the calendar year in which the
                                           participant attains age 70-1/2, or

                                  (ii)     the earlier of the calendar year
                                           with or within which ends the plan
                                           year in which the participant
                                           becomes a five-percent owner, or the
                                           calendar year in which the
                                           participant retires.

                 The required beginning date of a participant who is not a
                 five-percent owner who attains age 70-1/2 during 1988 and who
                 has not retired as of January 1, 1989, is April 1, 1990.

                 (3)      FIVE-PERCENT OWNER. A participant is treated as a
                          five-percent owner for purposes of this section if
                          such participant is a five-percent owner as defined
                          in Section 416(i) of the Code (determined in 
                          accordance with Section 416 but without regard to 
                          whether the plan is top-heavy) at any time during 
                          the plan year ending with or within the calendar 
                          year in which such owner attains age 66-1/2 or any 
                          subsequent plan year.

                 (4)      Once distributions have begun to a five-percent owner
                          under this section, they must continue to be
                          distributed, even if the participant ceases to be a
                          five-percent owner in a subsequent year.

         (C)     DEATH OF THE PARTICIPANT. The Advisory Committee will direct
                 the Trustee, in accordance with this Section 6.01(C), to
                 distribute to the Participant's Beneficiary the Participant's
                 Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit remaining in the Trust at the
                 time of the Participant's death.

                 (1)      DECEASED PARTICIPANT'S NONFORFEITABLE ACCRUED BENEFIT
                          DOES NOT EXCEED $3,500. The Advisory Committee,
                          subject to the requirements of Section 6.04, must
                          direct the Trustee to pay the deceased Participant's
                          Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in a single cash sum,
                          as soon as administratively practicable following the
                          Participant's death or, if later, the date on which
                          the Advisory Committee receives notification of or
                          otherwise confirms the Participant's death.

PLAN DOCUMENT

         (2)     DECEASED PARTICIPANT'S NONFORFEITABLE ACCRUED BENEFIT EXCEED
                 $3,500. The Advisory Committee will direct the Trustee to pay
                 the deceased Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit at
                 the time and in the form elected by the Participant or, if
                 applicable by the Beneficiary, as permitted under this Article
                 VI. In the absence of an election, subject to the requirements
                 of Section 6.04, the Advisory Committee will direct the
                 Trustee to distribute the Participant's undistributed
                 Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in a lump sum on the first
                 distribution date following the close of the Plan Year in
                 which the Participant's death occurs or, if later, the first
                 distribution date following the date the Advisory Committee
                 receives notification of or otherwise confirms the
                 Participant's death.

                 If the death benefit is payable to the Participant's surviving
                 spouse in full, the surviving spouse, in addition to the
                 distribution options provided in this Section 6.01(C), may
                 elect distribution at any time or in any form (other than a
                 joint and survivor annuity) this Article VI would permit for a
                 Participant.

                 Subject to Article VI Joint and Survivor Annuity Requirements,
                 the requirements of this Article shall apply to any
                 distribution of a participant's interest and will take
                 precedence over any inconsistent provisions of this plan.
                 Unless otherwise specified, the provisions of this Article
                 apply to the calendar year beginning after December 31, 1984.

                 All distributions required under this Article shall be
                 determined and made in accordance with the proposed
                 regulations under Section 401(a)(9), including the minimum
                 distribution incidental benefit requirement of Section 
                 1.401(a)(9)-2 of the proposed regulations.

6.02     "METHOD OF PAYMENT OF ACCRUED BENEFIT"
         Subject to the annuity distribution requirements, if any, prescribed
         by Section 6.04, and any restrictions prescribed by Section 6.03, a
         Participant or Beneficiary may elect distribution under one, or any
         combination, of the following methods: (a) by payment in a lump sum;
         or (b) by payment in monthly, quarterly or annual installments over a
         fixed reasonable period of time, not exceeding the life or life
         expectancy of the Participant, or the joint and last survivor life or
         life expectancy of the Participant and an individual the Participant
         designates as his Beneficiary (his "designated Beneficiary").

         The distribution options permitted under this Section 6.02 are
         available only if the present value of the Participant Nonforfeitable
         Accrued Benefit, at the time of the distribution to the Participant,
         exceeds $3,500. To facilitate installment payments under this Article
         VI, the Advisory Committee may direct the Trustee to segregate all or
         any part of the Participant's Accrued Benefit in a separate Account.
         The Trustee will invest the Participant's segregated Account in
         Federally insured interest bearing savings account(s) or time
         deposit(s) (or a combination of both), or in other fixed income
         investments. A segregated Account remains a part of the Trust, but it
         alone shares in any income it earns, and it alone bears any expense or
         loss it incurs. A Participant or Beneficiary may elect to receive an
         installment distribution in the form of a Nontransferable Annuity
         Contract. Under an installment distribution, the Participant or
         Beneficiary, at any time, may elect to accelerate the payment of all,
         or any portion, of the Participant's unpaid Nonforfeitable Accrued
         Benefit, subject to the requirements of Section 6.04.

         (A)     MINIMUM DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS FOR PARTICIPANTS.
                 The Advisory Committee may not direct the Trustee to
                 distribute the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit,
                 nor may the Participant elect to have the Trustee distribute
                 his Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit, under a method     of
                 payment which, as of the Required Beginning Date, does not
                 satisfy the minimum distribution requirements under Code
                 Section 401(a)(9) and the applicable Treasury regulations. The
                 minimum distribution for a calendar year equals the
                 Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit as of the latest
                 valuation date preceding the beginning of the calendar year
                 divided by the Participant's life expectancy or, if
                 applicable, the joint and last survivor expectancy of the
                 Participant and his designated Beneficiary (as determined
                 under Section 8.01, subject to the requirements of the Code
                 Section 401(a)(9) regulations). The Advisory Committee will
                 increase the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit, as
                 determined on the relevant valuation date, for contributions
                 allocated after the valuation date and by December 31 of the
                 valuation calendar year, and will decrease the valuation by
                 distributions made after the valuation date and by December 31
                 of the valuation calendar year. For purposes of this
                 valuation, the Advisory Committee will treat any portion of
                 the minimum distribution for the first distribution calendar
                 year made after the close of that year as a distribution
                 occurring in that first distribution calendar year. In
                 computing a minimum distribution the Advisory Committee must
                 use the unisex life expectancy multiples under Treas. Reg.
                 Section 1.72-9. The Advisory Committee, only upon the
                 participant's written request, will not compute the minimum
                 distribution for a calendar year subsequent to the first
                 calendar year for which the Plan requires a minimum
                 distribution by redetermining the applicable life expectancy.
                 Otherwise, the Advisory Committee will redetermine the joint
                 life and last survivor expectancy of the Participant and a
                 nonspouse designated Beneficiary in a manner which takes into
                 account any adjustment to a life expectancy other than the
                 Participant's life expectancy.

                 If the Participant's spouse is not his designated Beneficiary,
                 a method of payment to the Participant (whether by Participant 
                 election or by Advisory Committee direction) may not provide
                 more than incidental benefits to the Beneficiary. For Plan
                 Year beginning after December 31, 1988, the Plan must satisfy
                 the minimum distribution incidental benefit ("MDIB")
                 requirement in the Treasury regulations issued under Code
                 Section 401(a)(9) for distributions made on or after the
                 Participant's Required Beginning Date and before the
                 Participant's death. To satisfy the MDIB requirement, the
                 Advisory Committee will compute the minimum distribution
                 required by this Section 6.02(A) by substituting the
                 applicable MDIB divisor for the applicable life expectancy
                 factor, if the MDIB divisor is a lesser number. Following the
                 Participant's death, the Advisory Committee will compute the
                 minimum distribution required by this Section 6.02(A) solely
                 on the basis of the applicable life expectancy factor and will
                 disregard the MDIB factor.

                 For Plan Years beginning prior to January l, 1989, the Plan
                 satisfies the incidental benefits requirement if the
                 distributions to the Participant satisfied the MDIB
                 requirement or if the present value of the retirement benefits
                 payable solely to the Participant is greater than 50% of the
                 present value of the total benefits payable to the Participant
                 and his Beneficiaries.  The Advisory Committee must determine
                 whether benefits to the Beneficiary are incidental as of the
                 date the Trustee is to commence payment of the retirement
                 benefits to the Participant, or as of any date the Trustee
                 redetermines the payment period to the Participant.

                 The minimum distribution for the first distribution calendar
                 year is due by the Participant's Required Beginning Date. The
                 minimum distribution for each subsequent distribution calendar
                 year, including the calendar year in which the Participant's
                 Required Beginning Date falls, is due by December 31 of that
                 year. If the Participant receives distribution in the form of
                 a Nontransferable Annuity Contract, the distribution satisfies
                 this Section 6.02(A) if the contract complies with the
                 requirements of Code Section 401(a)(9) and the applicable
                 Treasury regulations.

         (B)     MINIMUM DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS FOR BENEFICIARIES.
                 If any portion of the Participant's interest is payable to a
                 designated beneficiary, method of distribution to the  
                 Participant's Beneficiary must satisfy Code Section 401(a)(9)
                 and the applicable Treasury regulations. If the Participant's
                 death occurs after his Required Beginning Date or, if earlier,
                 the date the Participant commences an irrevocable annuity
                 pursuant to Section 6.04, the method of payment to the
                 Beneficiary must provide for completion of payment over a
                 period which does not exceed the payment period which had
                 commenced for the Participant. If the Participant's death
                 occurs prior to his Required Beginning Date, and the
                 Participant had not commenced an irrevocable annuity pursuant
                 to section 6.04, the method of payment to the Beneficiary,
                 subject to Section 6.04, must provide for completion of
                 payment to the Beneficiary over a period not exceeding (i) by
                 December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth
                 anniversary of the Participant's; or (ii) if the Beneficiary
                 is a designated Beneficiary, the designated Beneficiary's life
                 expectancy. The Advisory Committee may not direct payment of
                 the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit over a period
                 described in clause (ii) unless the Trustee will commence
                 payment to the designated Beneficiary no later than the
                 December 31 following the close of the calendar year in which
                 the Participant's death occurred or, if later, and the
                 designated Beneficiary is the Participant's surviving spouse,
                 December 31 of the calendar year in which the Participant
                 would have attained age 70-1/2. If the Trustee will make
                 distribution in accordance with clause (ii), the minimum
                 distribution for a calendar year equals the Participant's
                 Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit as of the latest valuation date
                 preceding the beginning of the calendar year divided by the
                 designated Beneficiary's life expectancy. The Advisory
                 Committee must use the unisex life expectancy multiples under
                 Treas. Section Reg. 1.72-9 for purposes of applying this
                 paragraph. The Advisory Committee, only upon the written
                 request of the Participant or of the Participant's surviving
                 spouse, may recalculate the life expectancy of the
                 Participant's surviving spouse no more frequently than
                 annually, but may not recalculate the life expectancy of a
                 nonspouse designated Beneficiary after the Trustee commences
                 payment to the designated Beneficiary. The Advisory Committee
                 will apply this paragraph by treating any amount paid to the
                 Participant's child, which becomes payable to the
                 Participant's surviving spouse upon the child's attaining the
                 age of majority, as paid to the Participant' surviving spouse.
                 Upon the Beneficiary's written request, the Advisory Committee
                 must direct the Trustee to accelerate payment of all, or any
                 portion, of the Participant's unpaid Accrued Benefit, as soon
                 as administratively practicable following the effective date
                 of that request.

                 If the participant has not made an election pursuant to this
                 Section 6.02 by the time of his or her death, the
                 participant's designated beneficiary must elect the method of
                 distribution no later than the earlier of (1) December 31 of
                 the calendar year in which distributions would be required to
                 begin under this Section, or (2) December 31 of the calendar
                 year which contains the fifth anniversary of the date of death
                 of the participant. If the participant has no designated
                 beneficiary, or if the designated beneficiary does not elect a
                 method of distribution, distribution of the participant's
                 entire interest must be completed by December 31 of the
                 calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the
                 participant's death.

                 For purposes of this Section 6.02, if the surviving spouse
                 dies after the participant, but before payments to such spouse
                 begin, the provisions of this Section 6.02, with the exception
                 of paragraph (b) therein, shall be applied as if the surviving
                 spouse were the participant.

                 For the purposes of this Section 6.02, distribution of a
                 participant's interest is considered to begin on the
                 Participant's required beginning date (or the date
                 distribution is required to begin to the surviving spouse). If
                 distribution in the form of an annuity irrevocably commences
                 to the Participant before the required beginning date, the
                 date distribution is considered to begin is the date
                 distribution actually commences.

                 APPLICABLE LIFE EXPECTANCY. The life expectancy (or joint and
                 last survivor expectancy) calculated using the attained age of
                 the Participant (or designated Beneficiary as of the
                 Participant's (or designated Beneficiary's) birthday in the
                 applicable calendar year reduced by one for each calendar year
                 which has elapsed since the date life expectancy was first
                 calculated. If life expectancy is being recalculated, the
                 applicable life expectancy shall be the life expectancy as so
                 recalculated. The applicable calendar year shall be the first
                 distribution calendar year, and if life expectancy is being
                 recalculated such succeeding calendar year.

PLAN DOCUMENT
                 DISTRIBUTION CALENDAR YEAR. A calendar year for which a
                 minimum distribution is required. For distributions beginning
                 before the participant's death, the first distribution
                 calendar year is the calendar year immediately preceding the
                 calendar year which contains the participant's required
                 beginning date. For distributions beginning after the
                 participant's death, the first distribution calendar year is
                 the calendar year in which distributions are required to begin
                 pursuant to this Section 6.02 above.

6.03     "BENEFIT PAYMENT ELECTIONS"
         Not earlier than 90 days before nor later than 30 days before the
         Participant's annuity starting date, the Plan Administrator must
         provide a benefit notice to a Participant who is eligible to make an
         election under this Section 6.03. The benefit notice must explain the
         optional forms of benefit in the Plan, including the material features
         and relative values of those options, and the Participant's right to
         defer distribution until he attains the later of Normal Retirement Age
         or age 62.

         If a Participant or Beneficiary makes an election prescribed by this
         Section 6.03, the Advisory Committee will direct the Trustee to
         distribute the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in
         accordance with that election. Any election under this Section 6.03 is
         subject to the requirements of Section 6.02 and of Section 6.04. The
         Participant or Beneficiary must make an election under this Section
         6.03 by filing his election with the Advisory Committee at any time
         before the Trustee otherwise would commence to pay a Participant's
         Accrued Benefit in accordance with the requirements of Article VI.

         (A)     PARTICIPANT ELECTIONS AFTER SEPARATE FROM SERVICE. If the
                 present value of a Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued
                 Benefit exceeds $3,500, he may elect to have the Trustee
                 commence distribution as of any distribution date, but not
                 earlier than the first distribution date of the first Plan
                 Year following the Participant's separation from service. The
                 Participant may reconsider an election at any time prior to
                 the annuity starting date and elect to commence distribution
                 as of any other distribution date. A Participant who has not
                 separated from Service may elect distribution as of any
                 distribution date following his attainment of Normal
                 Retirement Age.

         (B)     PARTICIPANT ELECTIONS PRIOR TO TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. No
                 distribution options are permitted prior to a Participant's
                 Separation of Service.

         (C)     DEATH BENEFIT ELECTIONS. If the present value of the deceased
                 Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit exceeds $3,500,
                 the Participant's Beneficiary may elect to have the Trustee
                 distribute the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in
                 a form and within a period permitted under Section 6.02. The
                 Beneficiary's election is subject to any restrictions
                 designated in writing by the Participant and not revoked as of
                 his date of death.

         (D)     TRANSITIONAL ELECTIONS. Notwithstanding the provisions of
                 Section 6.01 and 6.02, if the Participant (or Beneficiary)
                 signed a written distribution designation prior to January 1,
                 1984, the Advisory Committee must distribute the Participant's
                 Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in accordance with that
                 designation, subject however, to the requirements, if
                 applicable, of Sections 6.04, 6.05 and 6.06. This Section
                 6.03(D) does not apply to a pre-1984 distribution designation,
                 and the Advisory Committee will not comply with that
                 designation, if any of the following applies: (1) the method
                 of distribution would have disqualified the Plan under Code
                 Section 401(a)(9) as in effect on December 31, 1983; (2) the
                 Participant did not have an Accrued Benefit as of December
                 31, 1983; (3) the distribution designation does not specify the
                 timing and form of the distribution and the death
                 Beneficiaries (in order of priority); (4) the substitution of
                 a Beneficiary modifies the payment period of the distribution;
                 or, (5) the Participant (or Beneficiary) modifies or revokes
                 the distribution designation. In the event of a revocation,
                 the Plan must distribute, no later than December 31 of the
                 calendar year following the year of revocation, the amount
                 which the Participant would have received under Section
                 6.02(A) if the election had not been in effect or, if the
                 Beneficiary revokes the election, the amount which the
                 Beneficiary would have received under Section 6.02(B) if the
                 election had not been in effect. The Advisory Committee will
                 apply this Section 6.03(D) to rollovers and transfers in
                 accordance with Part J of the Code Section 401(a)(9) 
                 regulations.

6.04     "ANNUITY DISTRIBUTIONS TO PARTICIPANTS AND SURVIVING SPOUSES"
         (A)     JOINT AND SURVIVOR ANNUITY. The Advisory Committee must direct
                 the Trustee to distribute a married or unmarried Participant's
                 Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in the form of a qualified
                 joint and survivor annuity, unless the Participant makes a
                 valid waiver election (described in Section 6.05) within the
                 90 day period ending on the annuity starting date. The
                 participant may elect to have such annuity distributed upon
                 attainment of the earliest retirement age under the plan. The
                 earliest retirement age is the earliest date on which, under
                 the plan, the participant could elect to receive retirement
                 benefits. If, as of the annuity starting date, the participant
                 is married, a qualified joint and survivor annuity is an
                 immediate annuity which is purchasable with the Participant's
                 Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit and which provides a life
                 annuity for the Participant and a survivor annuity payable for
                 the remaining life of the Participant's surviving spouse equal
                 to not less than 50% and not more than 100% of the amount of
                 the annuity payable during the life of the Participant. If, as
                 of the annuity starting date, the Participant is not married,
                 a qualified joint and survivor annuity is an immediate life
                 annuity for the Participant which is purchasable with the
                 Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit. On or before the
                 annuity starting date, the Advisory Committee, without
                 Participant or spousal consent, must direct the Trustee to pay
                 the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in a lump
                 sum, in lieu of a qualified joint and survivor annuity, in
                 accordance with Section 6.01, if the Participant's
                 Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit is not greater than $3,500.
                 This Section 6.04(A) applies only to a Participant who has
                 completed at least one Hour of Service with the Employer after
                 August 23, 1984.

         (B)     PRE-RETIREMENT SURVIVOR ANNUITY. If a married Participant dies
                 prior to his annuity starting date, the Advisory Committee
                 will direct the Trustee to distribute a portion of the
                 Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit to the
                 Participant's surviving spouse in the form of a pre-retirement
                 survivor annuity, unless the Participant has a valid waiver
                 election (as described in Section 6.06) in effect within the
                 election period, or unless the Participant and his spouse were
                 not married throughout the one year period ending on the date
                 of his death. The surviving spouse may elect to have such
                 annuity distributed within a reasonable period after the
                 participant's death. The period which begins on the first day
                 of the plan year in which the participant attains age 35 and
                 ends on the date of the participant's death. If a participant
                 separates from service prior to the first day of the plan
                 year in which age 35 is attained, with respect to the account
                 balance as of the date of separation, the election period
                 shall begin on the date of separation. A pre-retirement
                 survivor annuity is an annuity which is purchasable with 50%
                 of the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit
                 (determined as of the date of the Participant's death) and
                 which is payable for the life of the Participant's surviving
                 spouse. The value of the pre-retirement survivor annuity is
                 attributable to Employer contributions and to Employee
                 contributions in the same proportion as the Participant's
                 Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit is attributable to those
                 contributions. If the present value of the pre-retirement
                 survivor annuity does not exceed $3,500, the Advisory
                 Committee, on or before the annuity starting date (as
                 determined under Section 6.01(C)), must direct the Trustee to
                 make a lump sum distribution to the Participant's surviving
                 spouse, in lieu of a pre-retirement survivor annuity. This
                 Section 6.04(B) applies only to a Participant who dies after
                 August 22, 1984, and either (i) completes at least one Hour of
                 Service with the Employer after August 22, 1984, or (ii)
                 separated from Service with at least 10 Years of Service (as
                 defined in Section 5.06) and completed at least one Hour of
                 Service with the Employer in a Plan Year beginning after
                 December 31, 1975.

         (C)     SURVIVING SPOUSE ELECTIONS. If the present value of the
                 pre-retirement survivor annuity exceeds $3,500, the
                 Participant's surviving spouse may elect to have the Trustee
                 commence payment of the pre-retirement survivor annuity at any
                 time following the date of the Participant's death, but not
                 later than the mandatory distribution periods described in
                 Section 6.02, and may elect either or any combination of the
                 two forms of payment described in Section 6.02, in lieu of the
                 pre-retirement survivor annuity. In the absence of an election
                 by the surviving spouse, the Advisory Committee must direct
                 the Trustee to distribute the pre-retirement survivor annuity
                 on the first distribution date following the close of the Plan
                 Year in which the latest of the following events occurs (i)
                 the Participant's death; (ii) the date the Advisory Committee
                 receives notification of or otherwise confirms the
                 Participant's death; (iii) the date the Participant would have
                 attained Normal Retirement Age; or (iv) the date the
                 Participant would have attained age 62.

         (D)     SPECIAL RULES. If the Participant has in effect a valid waiver
                 election regarding the qualified joint and survivor annuity or
                 the pre-retirement survivor annuity, the Advisory Committee
                 must direct the Trustee to distribute the Participant's
                 Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in accordance with Sections
                 6.01, 6.02 and 6.03. For purposes of applying this Article VI,
                 the Advisory Committee treats a former spouse as the
                 Participant's spouse or surviving spouse, and a current spouse
                 will not be treated as the spouse or surviving spouse, to the
                 extent provided under a qualified domestic relations order
                 described in Section 6.07. The provisions of this Section
                 6.04, and of Sections 6.05 and 6.06, apply separately to the
                 portion of the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit
                 subject to the qualified domestic relations order and to the
                 portion of the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit
                 not subject to that order. The spouse (surviving spouse) is
                 the spouse or surviving spouse of the participant, provided
                 that a former spouse will be treated as the spouse or
                 surviving spouse and a current spouse will not be treated as
                 the spouse or surviving spouse to the extent provided under a
                 qualified domestic relations order as described in Section 
                 414(p) of the Code.

         (E)     PROFIT SHARING PLAN EXCEPTION. If the Plan is a profit sharing
                 plan, the preceding provisions of this Section 6.04 do not
                 apply to any Participant in the Plan except: (1) a Participant
                 as respects whom the Plan is a direct or indirect transferee
                 from a plan subject to the Code Section 417 requirements and
                 the Plan received the transfer after December 31, 1984, unless
                 the transfer is an elective transfer described in Section
                 12.06; (2) a Participant who elects a life annuity
                 distribution (if Section 12.02 of the Plan requires the Plan
                 to provide a life annuity distribution option); and (3) a
                 Participant whose benefits under a defined benefit plan
                 maintained by the Employer are offset by benefits provided
                 under this Plan. Sections 6.05 and 6.06 only apply to
                 Participants to whom the preceding provisions of this Section
                 6.04 apply.

                 This Section shall apply to a participant in a profit-sharing
                 plan, and to any distribution, made on or after the first day
                 of the first plan year beginning after December 31, 1988, from
                 or under a separate account attributable solely to accumulated
                 deductible employee contributions, as defined in Section
                 72(o)(5)(B) of the Code, and maintained on behalf of a
                 participant in a money purchase pension plan (including a
                 target benefit plan), if the following conditions are
                 satisfied: (1) the participant does not or cannot elect
                 payments in the form of a life annuity; and (2) on the death
                 of a participant, the participant's vested account balance     
                 will be paid to the participant's surviving spouse, but if
                 there is no surviving spouse, or if the surviving spouse has
                 consented in a manner conforming to a qualified election, then
                 to the participant's designated beneficiary. The surviving
                 spouse may elect to have distribution of the vested account
                 balance commence within the 90-day period following the date
                 of the participant's death. The account balance shall be
                 adjusted for gains or losses occurring after the participant's
                 death in accordance with the provision of the plan governing
                 the adjustment of account balances for other types of
                 distributions. This section Section 6.04(E) shall not be
                 operative with respect to a participant in a profit-sharing
                 plan if the plan is a direct or indirect transferee of a
                 defined benefit plan, money purchase plan, a target benefit
                 plan, stock bonus, or profit-sharing plan which is subject to
                 the survivor annuity requirements of Section 401(a)(11) and
                 Section 417. If this Section 6.04(E) is operative, then the
                 provisions of this Article, other than this Section 6.04,
                 shall be inoperative.





                                       18
<PAGE>   53

         The participant may waive the spousal death benefit described in this
         Section at any time provided that no such waiver shall be effective
         unless it satisfies the conditions of Section 6.05 (other than the
         notification requirement referred to therein) that would apply to the
         participant's waiver of the qualified pre-retirement survivor annuity.

         For purposes of this Section 6.04(E), vested account balance shall
         mean, in the case of a money purchase pension plan or a target benefit
         plan, the participant's separate account balance attributable solely
         to accumulated deductible employee contributions within the meaning of
         Section 72(o)(5)(B) of the Code. In the case of a profit-sharing plan,
         vested account balance shall have the same meaning as Nonforfeitable
         Accrued Benefit.

6.05     "WAIVER ELECTION - QUALIFIED JOINT AND SURVIVOR ANNUITY"
         Not earlier than 90 days before nor later than 30 days before the
         Participant's annuity starting date, the Plan Administrator must
         provide the Participant a written explanation of the terms and
         conditions of the qualified joint and survivor annuity, the
         Participant's right to make, and the effect of, an election to waive
         the joint and survivor form of benefit, the rights of the
         Participant's spouse regarding the waiver election and the
         Participant's right to make, and the effect of, a revocation of a
         waiver election. The Plan does not limit the number of times the
         Participant may revoke a waiver of the qualified joint and survivor
         annuity or make a new waiver during the election period.

         A married Participant's waiver election is not valid unless (a) the
         Participant's spouse (to whom the survivor annuity is payable under
         the qualified joint and survivor annuity) has consented in writing to
         the waiver election, the spouse's consent acknowledges the effect of
         the election, and a notary public or the Plan Administrator (or his
         representative) witnesses the spouse's consent, (b) the election
         designates a specific beneficiary, including any class of
         beneficiaries or any contingent beneficiaries, which may not be
         changed without spousal consent (or the spouse expressly permits
         designations by the participant without any further spousal consent;
         (c) the spouse consents to the alternate form of payment designated by
         the Participant or to any change in that designated form of payment,
         and (d) unless the spouse is the Participant's sole primary
         Beneficiary, the spouse consents to the Participant's Beneficiary
         designation or to any change in the Participant's Beneficiary
         designation. The spouse's consent to a waiver of the qualified joint
         and survivor annuity is irrevocable, unless the Participant revokes
         the waiver election. The spouse may execute a blanket consent to any
         form of payment designation or to any Beneficiary designation made by
         the Participant, if the spouse acknowledges the right to limit that
         consent to a specific designation but, in writing, waives that right.
         The consent requirements of this Section 6.05 apply to a former spouse
         of the Participant, to the extent required under a qualified domestic
         relations order described in Section 6.07. A revocation of a prior
         waiver may be made by a participant without the consent of the spouse
         at any time before the commencement of benefits. The number of
         revocations shall not be limited. No consent obtained under this
         provision shall be valid unless the participant has received notice as
         provided in this Section 6.05.

         The Plan Administrator will accept as valid a waiver election which
         does not satisfy the spousal consent requirements if the Plan
         Administrator establishes the Participant does not have a spouse, the
         Plan Administrator is not able to locate the Participant's spouse, the
         Participant is legally separated or has been abandoned (within the
         meaning of State law) and the Participant has a court order to that
         effect, or other circumstances exist under which the Secretary of the
         Treasury will excuse the consent requirement. If the Participant's
         spouse is legally incompetent to give consent, the spouse's legal
         guardian (even if the guardian is the Participant) may give consent.
         Any consent obtained from a spouse shall be effective only with
         respect to such spouse.

6.06     "WAIVER ELECTION - PRE-RETIREMENT SURVIVOR ANNUITY"
         The Plan Administrator must provide a written explanation of the
         pre-retirement survivor annuity to each married Participant, within
         the following period which ends last: (1) the period beginning on the
         first day of the Plan Year in which the Participant attains age 32 and
         ending on the last day of the Plan Year in which the Participant
         attains age 35; (2) a reasonable period ending after an Employee
         becomes a Participant; (3) a reasonable period ending after the joint
         and survivor rules become applicable to the Participant; or (4) a
         reasonable period ending after a fully subsidized pre-retirement
         survivor annuity no longer satisfies the requirements for a fully
         subsidized benefit. A reasonable period described in clauses (2), (3)
         and (4) is the two-year period beginning one year before and ending
         one year after the applicable event. If the Participant separates from
         Service before attaining age 35, clauses (1), (2), (3) and (4) do not
         apply and the Plan Administrator must provide the written explanation
         within the two-year period beginning one year before and ending one
         year after the Separation from Service. The written explanation must
         describe, in a manner consistent with Treasury regulations, the terms
         and conditions of the pre-retirement survivor annuity comparable to
         the explanation of the qualified joint and survivor annuity required
         under Section 6.05. The Plan does not limit the number of times the
         Participant may revoke a waiver of the pre-retirement survivor annuity
         or make a new waiver during the election period.

         A Participant's waiver election of the pre-retirement survivor annuity
         is not valid unless (a) the Participant makes the waiver election no
         earlier than the first day of the Plan Year in which he attains age 35
         and (b) the Participant's spouse (to whom the pre-retirement survivor
         annuity is payable) satisfies the consent requirements described in
         Section 6.05, except the spouse need not consent to the form of
         benefit payable to the designated Beneficiary. The spouse's consent to
         the waiver of the pre-retirement survivor annuity is irrevocable,
         unless the Participant revokes the waiver election. Irrespective of
         the time of election requirement described in clause (a), if the
         Participant separates from Service prior to the first day of the Plan
         Year in which he attains age 35, the Plan Administrator will accept a
         waiver election as respects the Participant's Accrued Benefit
         attributable to his Service prior to his Separation from Service. If
         the participant thereafter returns to employment with the employer,
         the applicable period for such participant shall be redetermined.
         Pre-age 35





                                       19
<PAGE>   54

         waiver: A participant who will not yet attain age 35 as of the end of
         any current Plan Year may make a special qualified election to waive
         the qualified pre-retirement survivor annuity for the period beginning
         on the date of such election and ending on the first day of the Plan
         Year in which the participant will attain age 35. Such election shall
         not be valid unless the participant receives a written explanation of
         the qualified pre-retirement survivor annuity in such terms as are
         comparable to the explanation required under Section 6.05. Qualified
         pre-retirement survivor annuity coverage will be automatically
         reinstated as of the first day of the Plan Year in which the
         participant attains age 35. Any new waiver on or after such date shall
         be subject to the full requirements of this Article.

         Notwithstanding the other requirements of this Section 6.06, the
         respective notices prescribed by this Section need not be given to a
         participant if (1) the plan "fully subsidizes" the costs of a
         qualified joint and survivor annuity or qualified pre-retirement
         survivor annuity, and (2) the plan does not allow the participant to
         waive the qualified joint and survivor annuity or qualified
         pre-retirement survivor annuity and does not allow a married
         participant to designate a nonspouse beneficiary. For purposes of this
         Section 6.06, a plan fully subsidizes the costs of a benefit if no
         increase in cost, or decrease in benefits to the participant may
         result from the participant's failure to elect another benefit. Any
         consent obtained from a spouse shall be effective only with respect to
         such spouse.

6.07     "DISTRIBUTIONS UNDER DOMESTIC RELATIONS ORDERS"
         Nothing contained in this Plan prevents the Trustee, in accordance
         with the direction of the Advisory Committee, from complying with the
         provisions of a qualified domestic relations order (as defined in Code
         Section 414(p)). This Plan specifically permits distribution to an 
         alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order at any time,
         irrespective of whether the Participant has attained his earliest
         retirement age (as defined under Code Section 414(p)) under the Plan.
         A distribution to an alternate payee prior to the Participant's
         attainment of earliest retirement age is available only if: (l) the
         order specifies distribution at that time or permits an agreement
         between the Plan and the alternate payee to authorize an earlier
         distribution; and (2) if the present value of the alternate payee's
         benefits under the Plan exceeds $3,500, and if the order requires, the
         alternate payee consents to any distribution occurring prior to the
         Participant's attainment of earliest retirement age. Nothing in this
         Section 6.07 permits a Participant a right to receive distribution at
         a time otherwise not permitted under the Plan nor does it permit the
         alternate payee to receive a form of payment not permitted under the
         Plan.

         The Plan Administrator must establish reasonable procedures to
         determine the qualified status of a domestic relations order. Upon
         receiving a domestic relations order, the Plan Administrator promptly
         will notify the Participant and any alternate payee named in the
         order, in writing, of the receipt of the order and the Plan's
         procedures for determining the qualified status of the order. Within a
         reasonable period of time after receiving the domestic relations
         order, the Plan Administrator must determine the qualified status of
         the order and must notify the Participant and each alternate payee, in
         writing, of its determination. The Plan Administrator must provide
         notice under this paragraph by mailing to the individual's address
         specified in the domestic relations order, or in a manner consistent
         with Department of Labor regulations.

         If any portion of the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit is
         payable during the period the Plan Administrator is making its
         determination of the qualified status of the domestic relations order,
         the Advisory Committee must make a separate accounting of the amounts
         payable. If the Plan Administrator determines the order is a qualified
         domestic relations order within 18 months of the date amounts first
         are payable following receipt of the order, the Advisory Committee
         will direct the Trustee to distribute the payable amounts in
         accordance with the order. If the Plan Administrator does not make its
         determination of the qualified status of the order within the 18-month
         determination period, the Advisory Committee will direct the Trustee
         to distribute the payable amounts in the manner the Plan would
         distribute if the order did not exist and will apply the order
         prospectively if the Plan Administrator later determines the order is
         a qualified domestic relations order.

         To the extent it is not inconsistent with the provisions of the
         qualified domestic relations order, the Advisory Committee may direct
         the Trustee to invest any partitioned amount in a segregated
         subaccount or separate account and to invest the account in Federally
         insured, interest-bearing savings account(s) or time deposit(s) (or a
         combination of both), or in other fixed income investments. A
         segregated subaccount remains a part of the Trust, but it alone shares
         in any income it earns, and it alone bears any expense or loss it
         incurs. The Trustee will make any payments or distributions required
         under this Section 6.07 by separate benefit checks of other separate
         distribution to the alternate payee(s).

                                  ARTICLE VII
                           TRUSTEE, POWERS AND DUTIES

7.01     "INVESTMENT OF TRUST ASSETS"
         The Trustee shall accept and hold in the Trust such contributions of
         money on behalf of the Employer and Participants as it may receive
         from time to time, but not more frequently than once each month, from
         the Employer. All such contributions of money shall be accompanied by
         written instructions from the Employer specifying the Participants'
         sub-accounts to which they are to be credited, the amount to be
         invested in and the choice of Designated Investment Company stock, and
         by furnishing such instructions the Employer represents to the Trustee
         that the same are in accordance with any uniform rules adopted by the
         Employer and made known to Participants. If written instructions are
         not received, or if received, are in the opinion of the Trustee
         unclear, the Trustee may hold all or a portion of the contributions in
         cash without liability for rising security prices or distributions,
         pending receipt of written instructions or clarification. A
         Participant, through his Employer, may request an exchange of all or
         part of the investment company shares held hereunder for any other
         investment company shares eligible for purchase under the Plan, upon
         terms and conditions and within the limitations imposed by the then
         current prospectuses of the respective investment companies.

         Investment in shares of the Designated Investment Company shall be
         made at the price and in the manner in which such shares are then
         being publicly offered by such investment company. All dividends and
         capital gain distributions received on such shares shall be reinvested
         in such shares. If any distribution on shares of the fund may be
         received at the election of the shareholder in additional shares or in
         cash or other property, the Trustee shall elect to receive it in
         additional shares. Sales charges attributable to the acquisition of
         shares shall be charged to the account of the Participant for which
         such shares are acquired. All investment company shares acquired by
         the Trustee shall be registered in the name of the Trustee or of its
         registered nominee.

         The Employer shall remit directly to the insurance company any
         premiums life insurance or annuities which constitute contributions
         under the Plan, and the Trustee shall have no duty to account
         therefor. Any such life insurance and/or annuity contracts shall be
         issued in restricted and nontransferable form and be held by the
         Employer.

7.02     "VOTING AND OTHER ACTIONS"
         The Trustee shall deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to
         the Employer all notices, prospectuses, financial statements, proxies,
         and proxy soliciting material relating to shares of Designated
         Investment Company stock held pursuant to the Plan. The Trustee shall
         not vote any of the shares of the Fund held hereunder.

7.03     "REPORTS OF THE TRUSTEE AND EMPLOYER"
         The Trustee shall keep accurate and detailed records of all receipts,
         investments, disbursements and other transactions under this Trust.
         Not later than forty-five (45) days after the close of each Plan Year
         (or after the Trustee's resignation or removal pursuant to Section XI
         hereof), the Trustee shall file with the Employer and each Participant
         or Beneficiary for whom account is maintained by the Trustee under
         this Agreement a written report or reports reflecting the receipts,
         disbursements and other transactions effected by it during such Plan
         Year (or period ending with such resignation or removal) and the
         assets and liabilities of such account at its close.  Upon the
         expiration of a period of sixty (60) days immediately following the
         date on which such reports are filed, the Trustee shall be forever
         released and discharged from all liability and accountability to
         anyone with respect to its acts, transactions, duties, obligations or
         responsibility as shown in or reflected by such reports, except with
         respect to any such acts or transactions as to which written
         objections have been filed with the Trustee within such sixty day
         period.

         The Employer shall furnish to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall
         furnish to the Employer, such information relevant to the Plan and
         Trust as may be required under the Internal Revenue Code and any
         Regulations issued or forms adopted by the Treasury Department
         thereunder.

         The Trustee shall keep such records, make such identifications, and
         file with the Internal Revenue Service such returns and other
         information concerning the Trust as may be required of it under the
         Internal Revenue Code and any Regulations issued or forms adopted by
         the Treasury Department thereunder.

7.04     "TRUSTEE FEES AND EXPENSES OF THE ACCOUNT"
         Any income taxes or other taxes of any kind whatsoever that may be
         levied or assessed upon or in respect of the Trust, any transfer taxes
         incurred in connection with the investment and reinvestment of the
         assets of the Trust, all other administrative expenses incurred by the
         Trustee in the performance of its duties including fees for legal
         services rendered to the Trustee, and such compensation to the Trustee
         as may be agreed upon from time to time between the Trustee and the
         Employer shall be paid from the assets of the Trust and shall, unless
         allocable to the Accounts of specific Participants, be charged
         proportionately to their respective accounts.

7.05     "CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE"
         The Trustee shall not be responsible in any way for the collection of
         contributions provided for under the Plan, the purpose or propriety of
         any distribution made pursuant to Section V hereof, or any other
         action taken at the Employer's request. Nor shall the Trustee be
         responsible for the administration of the Plan, its validity or
         effect, or the qualification of the Plan or of the Trust Agreement
         under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. The Trustee shall
         not be required to examine the Plan or be charged with notice of its
         provisions. The Trustee shall not be required to take any action upon
         receipt of any notice from the Internal Revenue Service except to
         forward a copy thereof to the Employer with a request for written
         instructions. The Employer shall at all times fully indemnify and save
         harmless the Trustee, its successors and assigns, from and against any
         and all loss resulting from liability to which the Trustee may be
         subject by reason of any act or conduct (except willful misconduct or
         gross negligence) in its capacity as Trustee hereunder, including all
         expenses reasonably incurred in its defense, in case the Employer
         fails to provide such defense. The Trustee shall be under no duty to
         take any action other than as herein specified with respect to the
         Trust unless the Employer shall furnish the Trustee with instructions
         in proper form and as authorized by the terms of the Plan; or to
         defend or engage in any suit with respect to the Trust unless the
         Trustee shall have first agreed in writing to do so and shall have
         been fully indemnified to the satisfaction of the Trustee. The Trustee
         shall be protected in acting upon any written order from the Employer
         or any other notice, request, consent, certificate or other instrument
         or paper believed by it to be genuine and to have been properly
         executed, and, so long as it acts in good faith, in taking or omitting
         to take any other action. The Trustee shall not be liable for interest
         on any cash or cash balances maintained in the Trust pending
         investment in accordance with appropriate directions from the
         Employer.

7.06     "AMENDMENT"
         If the Employer's plan fails to attain or retain qualification, such
         plan will no longer participate in the prototype Plan and will be
         considered an individually designed plan.

7.07     "RESIGNATION OR REMOVAL OF TRUSTEE"
         The Trustee may resign at any time upon thirty (30) days notice in
         writing to the Employer, and may be removed by the Employer at any
         time upon thirty (30) days notice in writing to the Trustee. Upon such
         resignation or removal, the Employer shall appoint a successor
         Trustee. Upon receipt by the Trustee of written acceptance of such
         appointment by the successor Trustee, the Trustee shall transfer and
         pay over to such successor the assets of the Trust Account and all
         records pertaining thereto. The Trustee is authorized, however, to
         reserve such sum of money as it may deem advisable for payment of all
         its fees, compensation, costs and expenses, or for payment of any
         other liability constituting a charge on or against the assets of the
         Trust or on or against the Trustee, with any balance of such reserve
         remaining after the payment of all such items to be paid over to the
         successor Trustee. The successor Trustee shall hold the assets paid
         over to it under terms similar to those of this Agreement that qualify
         under section 401 of the Code. If within thirty (30) days after the
         Trustee's resignation or removal the Employer has not appointed a
         successor Trustee which has accepted such appointment, the Trustee
         shall, unless it elects to terminate the Trust pursuant to Section
         XII, appoint such successor itself.

7.08     "TERMINATION OF TRUST"
         The Trustee may elect to terminate the Trust if within thirty (30)
         days after its resignation or removal pursuant to Section X the
         Employer has not appointed a successor Trustee which has accepted such
         appointment. The Trustee shall terminate the Trust upon receiving
         notice of the Employer's death, if the Employer is a sole proprietor,
         or upon receiving notice of the termination of the partnership, if the
         Employer is a partnership, or upon receiving notice of the dissolution
         of the corporation, if the Employer is a corporation, unless provision
         is made by a successor to the business of the Employer for the
         continuation of the Plan and this Agreement upon terms satisfactory to
         the Trustee.

         Termination of the Trust shall be effected by distributing all assets
         thereof to the Participants and their designated beneficiaries
         pursuant to the direction of the Employer (or in the absence of such
         direction as determined by the Trustee), as on the termination of the
         Plan. Upon the completion of such distribution, the Trustee shall be
         relieved from all further liability with respect to all amounts so
         paid.

7.09     "MISCELLANEOUS"
         At no time shall it be possible for any part of the assets of the
         Trust to be used for or diverted to purposes other than for the
         exclusive benefit of Participants and Beneficiaries.

         Any notice from the Trustee to the Employer, Participant or
         Beneficiary provided for in this Agreement shall be effective if sent
         by first class mail to the last address of record.

         Upon receipt of a written request from the Employer, the Trustee shall
         transfer the assets in the Trust for a Participant to any other
         qualified plan maintained by the Employer for the benefit of such
         Participant; and the Trustee shall have no further liability under the
         Plan and Trust with respect to any assets so transferred.

         This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the personal
         representatives, successors and assigns of the Employer and the
         Trustee.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                     PARTICIPANT ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS

8.01     "BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION"
         Any Participant may from time to time designate, in writing, any
         person or persons, contingently or successively, to whom the Trustee
         will pay his Accrued Benefit (including any life insurance proceeds
         payable to the Participant's Account) on event of his death and the
         Participant may designate the form and method of payment. The Advisory
         Committee will prescribe the form for the written designation of
         Beneficiary and, upon the Participant's filing the form with the
         Advisory Committee, the form effectively revokes all designations
         filed prior to that date by the same Participant.

         COORDINATION WITH SURVIVOR REQUIREMENTS. If the joint and survivor
         requirements of Article VI apply to the Participant, this Section 8.01
         does not impose any special spousal consent requirements on the
         Participant's Beneficiary designation. However, in the absence of
         spousal consent (as required by Article VI) to the Beneficiary
         designation: (1) any waiver of the joint and survivor annuity or of
         the pre-retirement survivor annuity is not valid; and (2) if the
         Participant dies prior to his annuity starting date, the Beneficiary
         designation will apply only to the portion of the death benefit which
         is not payable as a pre-retirement survivor annuity.

         PROFIT SHARING PLAN EXCEPTION. If the Plan is a profit sharing plan,
         and the Employer elects to apply the joint and survivor requirements
         only to Participants described in Section 6.04(E), the Beneficiary
         designation of a married Participant who is not described in Section
         6.04(E) is not valid unless the Participant's spouse consents (in a
         manner described in Section 6.05) to the Beneficiary designation. The
         spousal consent requirement in this paragraph does not apply if the
         Participant and his spouse are not married throughout the one year
         period ending on the date of the Participant's death, or if the
         Participant's spouse is the Participant's sole primary Beneficiary.

8.02     "NO BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION"
         If a Participant fails to name a Beneficiary in accordance with
         Section 8.01, or if the Beneficiary named by a Participant predeceases
         him or dies before complete distribution of the Participant's Accrued
         Benefit as prescribed by the Participant's Beneficiary form, then the
         Trustee will pay the Participant's Accrued Benefit in accordance with
         Section 6.02 in the following order of priority:

         (A)     The Participant's surviving spouse;

         (B)     The Participant's surviving children, including adopted
                 children, in equal shares;

         (C)     The Participant's surviving parents, in equal shares; or

         (D)     The legal representative of the estate of the last to die of
                 the Participant and his Beneficiary.

         The Advisory Committee will direct the Trustee as to the method and to
         whom the Trustee will make payment under this Section 8.02. If a
         benefit is forfeited because the participant or beneficiary cannot be
         found, such benefit will be reinstated if a claim is made by the
         participant or beneficiary.

8.03     "PERSONAL DATA TO COMMITTEE"
         Each Participant and each Beneficiary of a deceased Participant must
         furnish to the Advisory Committee such evidence, data or information
         as the Advisory Committee considers necessary or desirable for the
         purpose of administering the Plan. The provisions of this Plan are
         effective for the benefit of each Participant upon the condition
         precedent that each Participant will furnish promptly full, true and
         complete evidence, data and information when requested by the Advisory
         Committee, provided the Advisory Committee advises each Participant of
         the effect of his failure to comply with its request.

8.04     "ADDRESS FOR NOTIFICATION"
         Each Participant and each Beneficiary of a deceased Participant must
         file with the Advisory Committee from time to time, in writing, his
         post office address and any change of post office address. Any
         communication, statement or notice addressed to a Participant, or
         Beneficiary, at his last post office address filed with the Advisory
         Committee, or as shown on the records of the Employer, binds the
         Participant, or Beneficiary, for all purposes of this Plan.

8.05     "ASSIGNMENT OR ALIENATION"
         Subject to Code Section 414(p) relating to qualified domestic 
         relations orders or domestic relations orders entered into before
         January 1, 1985, neither a Participant nor a Beneficiary may
         anticipate, assign or alienate voluntarily or involuntarily (either at
         law or in equity) any benefit provided under the Plan, and the Trustee
         will not recognize any such anticipation, assignment or alienation. 
         Furthermore, a benefit under the Plan is not subject to attachment,
         garnishment, levy, execution or other legal or equitable process.





                                       23
<PAGE>   58

8.06     "NOTICE OF CHANGE IN TERMS"
         The Plan Administrator, within the time prescribed by ERISA and the
         applicable regulations, must furnish all Participants and
         Beneficiaries a summary description of any material amendment to the
         Plan or notice of discontinuance of the Plan and all other information
         required by ERISA to be furnished without charge.

8.07     "LITIGATION AGAINST THE TRUST"
         A court of competent jurisdiction may authorize any appropriate
         equitable relief to redress violations of ERISA or to enforce any
         provisions of ERISA or the terms of the Plan. A fiduciary may receive
         reimbursement of expenses properly and actually incurred in the
         performance of his duties with the Plan.

8.08     "INFORMATION AVAILABLE"
         Any Participant in the Plan or any Beneficiary may examine copies of
         the Plan description, latest annual report, any bargaining agreement,
         this Plan and Trust, contract or any other instrument under which the
         Plan was established or is operated. The Plan Administrator will
         maintain all of the items listed in this Section 8.08 in his office,
         or in such other place or places as he may designate from time to time
         in order to comply with the regulations issued under ERISA, for
         examination during reasonable business hours. Upon the written request
         of a Participant or Beneficiary the Plan Administrator must furnish
         him with a copy of any item listed in this Section 8.08. The Plan
         Administrator may make a reasonable charge to the requesting person
         for the copy so furnished.

8.09     "APPEAL PROCEDURE FOR DENIAL OF BENEFITS"
         The Plan Administrator must provide adequate notice in writing to any
         Participant or to any Beneficiary ("Claimant") whose claim for
         benefits under the Plan the Advisory Committee has denied. The Plan
         Administrator's notice to the Claimant must set forth:

         (A)     The specific reason for the denial;

         (B)     Specific references to pertinent Plan provisions on which the
                 Advisory Committee based its denial;

         (C)     A description of any additional material and information
                 needed for the Claimant to perfect his claim and an
                 explanation of why the material or information is needed; and

         (D)     That any appeal the Claimant wishes to make of the adverse
                 determination must be in writing to the Advisory Committee
                 within 75 days after receipt of the Plan Administrator's
                 notice of denial of benefits. The Plan Administrator's notice
                 must further advise the Claimant that his failure to appeal
                 the action to the Advisory Committee in writing within the
                 75-day period will render the Advisory Committee's
                 determination final, binding and conclusive.

         If the Claimant should appeal to the Advisory Committee, he, or his
         duly authorized representative, may submit, in writing, whatever
         issues and comments he, or his duly authorized representative, feels
         are pertinent. The Claimant, or his duly authorized representative,
         may review pertinent Plan documents. The Advisory Committee will
         re-examine all facts related to the appeal and make a final
         determination as to whether the denial of benefits is justified under
         the circumstances. The Advisory Committee must advise the Claimant of
         its decision within 60 days of the Claimant's written request for
         review, unless special circumstances (such as a hearing) would make
         the rendering of a decision within the 60-day limit unfeasible, but in
         no event may the Advisory Committee render a decision respecting a
         denial for a claim for benefits later than 120 days after its receipt
         of a request for review.

         The Plan Administrator's notice of denial of benefit must identify the
         name of each member of the Advisory Committee and the name and address
         of the Advisory Committee member to whom the Claimant may forward
         his appeal.

8.10     "PARTICIPANT DIRECTION OF INVESTMENT"
         A Participant has the right to direct the Employer with respect to the
         investment or re-investment of the assets comprising the Participant's
         individual Account only if the Employer consents in writing to permit
         such direction. If the Employer consents to Participant direction of
         investment, the Employer and each Participant must execute a letter
         agreement as a part of this Plan containing such conditions,
         limitations and other provisions they deem appropriate before the
         Employer will follow any Participant direction as respects the
         investment or re-investment of any part of the Participant's
         individual Account. The Employer is not liable for any loss, nor is
         liable for any breach, resulting from a Participant's direction of the
         investment of any part of his individual Account.

                  DUTIES WITH RESPECT TO PARTICIPANTS' ACCOUNTS

         The Employer must appoint an Advisory Committee to administer the
         Plan, the members of which may or may not be Participants in the Plan,
         or which may be the Plan Administrator acting alone. The members of
         the Advisory Committee will serve without compensation for services as
         such, but the Employer will pay all expenses of the Advisory
         Committee, including the expense for any bond required under ERISA.

                 (C)      To adopt rules of procedure and regulations necessary
                          for the proper and efficient administration of the
                          Plan provided the rules are not inconsistent with the

                          Employer may require for tax or other purposes;

                 (H)      To engage the service of agents whom it may deem
                          advisable to assist it with the performance of its 
                          duties;

                 (I)      To establish and maintain a funding standard account
                          and to make credits and charges to the account to the
                          extent required by and in accordance with the
                          provisions of the Code.

                 The Advisory Committee must exercise all of its powers, duties
                 and discretion under the Plan in a uniform and
                 nondiscriminatory manner.

9.05     "FUNDING POLICY"
         The Advisory Committee will review, not less often than annually, all
         pertinent Employee information and Plan data in order to establish the
         funding policy of the Plan and to determine the appropriate methods of
         carrying out the Plan's objectives.

9.06     "MANNER OF ACTION"
         The decision of a majority of the members appointed and qualified
         controls.

9.07     "INTERESTED MEMBER"
         No member of the Advisory Committee may decide or determine any matter
         concerning the distribution, nature or method of settlement of his own
         benefits under the Plan, except in exercising an election available to
         that member in his capacity as a Participant, unless the Plan
         Administrator is acting alone in the capacity of the Advisory
         Committee.

9.08     "INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTS"
         The Advisory Committee will maintain, or direct the Trustee to
         maintain, a separate Account, or multiple Accounts, in the name of
         each Participant to reflect the Participant's Accrued Benefit under
         the Plan.

         The Advisory Committee will make its allocations, or request the
         Trustee to make its allocations, to the Accounts of the Participants
         in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.11. The Advisory
         Committee may direct the Trustee to maintain a temporary segregated
         investment Account in the name of a Participant to prevent a
         distortion of income, gain or loss allocations under Section 9.11. The
         Advisory Committee must maintain records of its activities.

9.09     "VALUE OF PARTICIPANT'S ACCRUED BENEFIT"
         The value of each Participant's Accrued Benefit consists of that
         proportion of the net worth (at fair market value) of the Employer's
         Trust Fund which the net credit balance in his Account (exclusive of
         the cash value of incidental benefit insurance contracts) bears to the
         total net credit balance in the Accounts (exclusive of the cash value
         of the incidental benefit insurance contracts) of all Participants
         plus the cash surrender value of any incidental benefit insurance
         contracts held by the Employer on the Participant's life.

         For purposes of a distribution under the Plan, the value of a
         Participant's Accrued Benefit is its value as of the valuation date
         immediately preceding the date of the distribution.

9.10     "ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTION OF NET INCOME GAIN OR LOSS"
         A "valuation date" under this Plan is each Accounting Date. As of each
         valuation date, the Advisory Committee must adjust Accounts to reflect
         net income, gain or loss since the last valuation date. The valuation
         period is the period beginning the day after the last valuation date
         and ending on the current valuation date.

         The assets of the trust will be valued annually at fair market value
         as of the last day of the plan year. On such date, the earnings and
         losses of the trust will be allocated to each participant's account in
         the ratio that such account balance bears to all account balances.

         TRUST FUND ACCOUNTS. The allocation provisions of this paragraph apply
         to all Participant Accounts other than segregated investment Accounts.
         The Advisory Committee first will adjust the Participant Accounts, as
         those Accounts stood at the beginning of the current valuation period,
         for amounts charged during the valuation period to the Accounts in
         accordance with Section 9.12 (relating to distributions) and Section
         10.01 (relating to insurance premiums), for the cash value of
         incidental benefit insurance contracts and for the amount of any
         Account which the Trustee has fully distributed since the immediately
         preceding valuation date. The Advisory Committee subject to Section
         9.12, will allocate the net income, gain or loss pro rata to the
         adjusted Participant Accounts. The allocable net income, gain or loss
         is the net income (or net loss), including the increase or decrease in
         the fair market value of assets, since the last valuation date.

         SEGREGATED INVESTMENT ACCOUNTS. A segregated investment Account
         receives all income it earns and bears all expense or loss it incurs.

         ADDITIONAL RULES. An Excess Amount or suspense account
         described in Part 2 of Article III does not share in the allocation of
         net income, gain or loss described in this Section 9.10. If the
         Employer's Plan includes a Code Section 401(k) arrangement, the
         Employer may specify in its Adoption Agreement alternate valuation
         provisions authorized by that Adoption Agreement. This Section 9.10
         applies solely to the allocation of net income, gain or loss of the
         Trust. The Advisory Committee will allocate the Employer contributions
         in accordance with Article III.

9.11     "INDIVIDUAL STATEMENT"
         As soon as practicable after the Accounting Date of each Plan Year,
         but within the time prescribed by ERISA and the regulations under
         ERISA, the Plan Administrator will deliver to each Participant (and to
         each Beneficiary) a statement reflecting the condition of his Accrued
         Benefit in the Trust as of that date and such other information ERISA
         requires be furnished the Participant or Beneficiary. No Participant,
         except a member of the Advisory Committee, has the right to inspect
         the records reflecting the Account of any other Participant.

9.12     "ACCOUNT CHARGED"
         The Advisory Committee will charge all distributions made to a
         Participant or to his Beneficiary from his Account against the Account
         of the Participant when made.

9.13     "MISSING BENEFICIARY"
         If the Employer shall be unable to locate any Beneficiary entitled to
         receive payment of any death benefit payable hereunder, after
         reasonable search, for a period of two years after such benefit
         becomes payable, the amount of such benefit shall cease to be payable
         to such Beneficiary, and shall become payable instead to the personal
         representative of such former Participant.

                                   ARTICLE X

                        PROVISIONS RELATING TO INSURANCE

10.01       "INSURANCE BENEFIT ANNUITY"
            The Employer in accordance with the direction of the respective
            Participants in accordance with any uniform rules adopted by the
            Employer and made known to Participants may elect to invest
            contributions to the Plan in incidental life insurance benefits or
            one or more annuity contracts distributed by Kemper Financial
            Services, Inc. or an affiliate, provided, however, that:

            (A)  ORDINARY LIFE. The premiums paid for ordinary life
                 insurance on the life of a Participant must at all times
                 be less than 50% of the Employer contributions made on
                 behalf of such Participant.  For purposes of these
                 incidental insurance provisions, ordinary life insurance
                 contracts are contracts with both nondecreasing death
                 benefits and nonincreasing premiums.

            (B)  TERM.  The premiums paid for term, universal and all
                 other life insurance which is not ordinary life insurance
                 on the life of any Participant may not exceed 25% of the
                 Employer contributions made on behalf of such
                 Participant.

            (C)  COMBINATION.  If both ordinary life and term insurance are
                 purchased on the life of any Participant, the sum of the term
                 insurance premium plus one-half of the ordinary life premiums
                 may not exceed 25% of the Employer contributions made on 
                 behalf of such Participant.

            (D)  ANNUITIES.  The terms of any annuity contract purchased
                 and distributed by the Plan to a Participant shall comply
                 with the requirements of this Plan.

                 Such direction of the participant's creates a segregated
                 asset account.  Except as provided in this Section 10.01
                 and Section 8.10, each participant will have a ratable
                 interest in all assets of the trust.  It will be the
                 Employer's responsibility to see that the limitations of
                 this Article X are not exceeded.

10.02       "FORM OF CONTRACT AND PREMIUM"
            The Employer shall apply for any contract under this Article X and
            each application for contract, and the contracts themselves, shall
            nominate and designate the Participant as sole owner, but each
            contract shall be held by the Employer and shall be restricted and
            not transferable.

            The Employer shall pay directly to the insurance company all
            amounts pursuant to an election under this Article X and shall
            charge the premiums on any such contract(s) against the
            contributions by or on behalf of such Participant.  After payment
            of any premium, the Employer shall remit the balance of such
            contributions to the Trustee hereunder.  The Employer shall hold
            all contracts issued under the Plan and fully account for same to
            the Trustee upon written request.

            In the event of any conflicts between the terms of this Plan and
            the terms of any insurance contracts hereunder, the Plan provisions
            shall control.

            Any dividends or credits earned on insurance contracts will be
            allocated to the participant's account derived from employer
            contributions for whose benefit the contract is held.

10.03       "LIMITATION OF LIFE INSURANCE PROTECTION"
            The Employer shall not continue any life insurance protection for
            any Participant beyond his actual termination of employment.

            If the Employer holds any insurance contract(s) on the life of a
            Participant when the Participant terminates his employment, subject
            to Article VI, the Employer shall transfer the contract(s) to the
            Participant endorsed so as to vest in the transferee all right,
            title and interest to the contract(s), free and clear of the Plan;
            subject, however, to restrictions as to surrender or payment of
            benefits as the issuing insurance company may permit and as the
            Employer shall direct.

            Subject to Article VI, Joint and Survivor Annuity Requirements, the
            contracts on a participant's life will be converted to cash or an
            annuity or distributed to the participant upon commencement of
            benefits.

                            ARTICLE XI MISCELLANEOUS

11.01     "EVIDENCE"
          Anyone required to give evidence under the terms of the Plan may do
          so by certificate, affidavit, document or other information which the
          person to act in reliance may consider pertinent, reliable and
          genuine, and to have been signed, made or presented by the proper
          party or parties. Both the Advisory Committee and the Trustee are
          fully protected in acting and relying upon any evidence described
          under the immediately preceding sentence.

11.02     "NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR EMPLOYER ACTION"
          Neither the Trustee nor the Advisory Committee has any obligation or
          responsibility with respect to any action required by the Plan to be
          taken by the Employer, any Participant or eligible Employee, or for
          the failure of any of the above persons to act or make any payment or
          contribution, or to otherwise provide any benefit contemplated under
          this Plan. Furthermore, the Plan does not require the Trustee or the
          Advisory Committee to collect any contribution required under the
          Plan, or to determine the correctness of the amount of any Employer
          contribution. Neither the Trustee nor the Advisory Committee need
          inquire into or be responsible for any action or failure to act on
          the part of the others. Any action required of a corporate Employer
          must be by its Board of Directors or its designate.

11.03     "FIDUCIARIES NOT INSURERS"
          The Trustee, the Advisory Committee, the Plan Administrator and the
          Employer in no way guarantee the Trust Fund from loss or
          depreciation. The Employer does not guarantee the payment of any
          money which may be or becomes due to any person from the Trust Fund.
          The liability of the Advisory Committee and the Trustee to make any
          payment from the Trust Fund at any time and all times is limited to
          the then available assets of the Trust.

11.04     "WAIVER OF NOTICE"
          Any person entitled to notice under the Plan may waive the notice.

11.05     "SUCCESSORS"
          The Plan is binding upon all persons entitled to benefits under the
          Plan, their respective heirs and legal representatives, upon the
          Employer, its successors and assigns, and upon the Trustee, the
          Advisory Committee, the Plan Administrator and their successors.

11.06     "WORD USAGE"
          Words used in the masculine also apply to the feminine where
          applicable, and wherever the context of the Employer's Plan dictates,
          the plural includes the singular and the singular includes the
          plural.

11.07     "EMPLOYER'S RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE"
          If the Employer's Plan fails to attain or retain qualification under
          section 401 of the Code, the Plan will no longer participate in this
          Kemper Simplified Prototype Retirement Plan and will be considered an
          individually-designed plan.

11.08     "EMPLOYMENT NOT GUARANTEED"
          Nothing contained in this Plan, or with respect to the establishment
          of the Trust, or any modification of amendment to the Plan or Trust,
          or in the creation of any Account, or the payment of any benefit,
          gives any Employee, Employee-Participant or any Beneficiary any right
          to continue employment, any legal or equitable right against the
          Employer, or Employee of the Employer, or against the Trustee, or its
          agents or employees, or against the Plan Administrator, except as
          expressly provided by the Plan, the Trust, ERISA or by a separate
          agreement.

                                  ARTICLE XII
                   EXCLUSIVE BENEFIT, AMENDMENT, TERMINATION

12.01     "EXCLUSIVE BENEFIT"
          Any contribution made by the employer because of a mistake of fact
          must be returned to the employer within one year of the contribution.
          In the event that the Commissioner of Internal Revenue determines
          that the plan is not initially qualified under the Internal Revenue
          Code, any contribution made incident to that initial qualification by
          the employer must be returned to the employer within one year after
          the date the initial qualification is denied, but only if the
          application for the qualification is made by the time prescribed by
          law for filing the employer's return for the taxable year in which
          the plan is adopted, or such later date as the Secretary of the
          Treasury may prescribe.

12.02     "AMENDMENT BY EMPLOYER" 
          The Employer may change the choice of options in the adoption
          agreement and add overriding language in the adoption agreement when
          such language is necessary to satisfy Section 415 or Section 416 of 
          the Code because of the required aggregation of multiple plans, and
          add certain model amendments published by the Internal Revenue
          Service which specifically provide that their adoption will not cause
          the plan to be treated as individually designed. An employer that
          amends the plan for any other reason, including a waiver of the
          minimum funding requirement under Section 412(d), will no longer
          participate in this master or prototype plan and will be considered
          to have an individually designed plan.
        
          No amendment may authorize or permit any of the Trust Fund (other
          than the part which is required to pay taxes and administration
          expenses) to be used for or diverted to purposes other than for the
          exclusive benefit of the Participants or their Beneficiaries or
          estates. No amendment may cause or permit any portion of the Trust
          Fund to revert to or become a property of the Employer. The Employer
          also may not make any amendment which affects the rights, duties or
          responsibilities of the Trustee, the Plan Administrator or the
          Advisory Committee without the written consent of the affected
          Trustee, the Plan Administrator or the affected member of the
          Advisory Committee.

          If the plan's vesting schedule is amended, or the plan is amended in
          any way that directly or indirectly affects the computation of the
          participant's nonforfeitable percentage or if the plan is deemed
          amended by an automatic change to or from a top-heavy vesting
          schedule, each participant with at least 3 years of service with the
          employer may elect, within a reasonable period after the adoption of
          the amendment or change, to have the nonforfeitable percentage
          computed under the plan without regard to such amendment or change.
          For participants who do not have at least one hour of service in any
          plan year beginning after December 31, 1988, the preceding sentence
          shall be applied by substituting "five years of service" for "three
          years of service" where such language appears.

          The period during which the election may be made shall commence with
          the date the amendment is adopted or deemed to be made and shall end
          on the latest of:

          (1) 60 days after the amendment is adopted;

          (2) 60 days after the amendment becomes effective; or

          (3) 60 days after the participant is issued written notice of
              the amendment by the employer or plan administrator.

          Furthermore, if the vesting schedule of a plan is amended, in the
          case of an employee who is a participant as of the later of the date
          such amendment is adopted or the date it becomes effective, the
          nonforfeitable percentage (determined as of such date) of such
          employee's right to his employer-derived accrued benefit will not be
          less than his percentage computed under the plan without regard to
          such amendment.

          CODE SECTION 411(D)(6) PROTECTED BENEFITS. An amendment (including
          the adoption of this Plan as a restatement of an existing plan) may
          not decrease a Participant's Accrued Benefit, except to the extent
          permitted under Code Section 412(c)(8), and may not reduce or
          eliminate Code Section 411 (d)(6) protected benefits determined
          immediately prior to the adoption date (or, if later, the effective
          date) of the amendment. An amendment reduces or eliminates Code
          Section 411 (d)(6) protected benefits if the amendment has the effect
          of either (1) eliminating or reducing an early retirement benefit or
          a retirement-type subsidy (as defined in Treasury regulations), or
          (2) except as provided by Treasury regulations, eliminating an
          optional form of benefit. The Advisory Committee must disregard an
          amendment to the extent application of the amendment would fail to
          satisfy this paragraph. If the Advisory Committee must disregard an
          amendment because the amendment would violate clause (1) or clause
          (2), the Advisory Committee must maintain a schedule of the early
          retirement option or other optional forms of benefit the Plan must
          continue for the affected Participants.
        
          The Employer must make all amendments in writing. Each amendment must
          state the date to which it is either retroactively or prospectively
          effective. See Section 11.08 for the effect of certain amendments
          adopted by the Employer.

<PAGE>   64

12.03     "AMENDMENT BY PLAN SPONSOR"
          The Plan Sponsor, without the Employer's consent, may amend the Plan
          and Trust, from time to time, in order to conform the Plan and Trust
          to any requirement for qualification of the Plan and Trust under the
          Internal Revenue Code. The Plan Sponsor may not amend the Plan in any
          manner which would modify any election made by the Employer under the
          Plan without the Employer's written consent.

          For purposes of sponsoring organization amendments, the mass
          submitter shall be recognized as the agent of the sponsoring
          organization. If the sponsoring organization does not adopt the
          amendments made by the mass submitter, it will no longer be identical
          to or a minor modifier of the mass submitter plan.

12.04     "DISCONTINUANCE"
          The Employer has the right, at any time, to suspend or discontinue
          its contributions under the Plan, and to terminate, at any time, this
          Plan and the Trust created under this Agreement. The Plan will
          terminate upon the first to occur of the following:

          (A)  The date terminated by action of the Employer;

          (B)  The date the Employer is judicially declared bankrupt or
               insolvent, unless the proceeding authorizes continued
               maintenance of the Plan;

          (C)  The dissolution, merger, consolidation or reorganization
               of the Employer or the sale by the Employer of all or
               substantially all of its assets, unless the successor or
               purchaser makes provision to continue the Plan, in which
               event the successor or purchaser must substitute itself
               as the Employer under this Plan.

          In the event of a complete discontinuance of contributions under the
          plan, the account balance of each affected participant will be
          nonforfeitable.

12.05     "MERGER/DIRECT TRANSFER"
          The Trustee may not consent to, or be a party to, any merger or
          consolidation with another plan, or to a transfer of assets or
          liabilities to another plan, unless immediately after the merger,
          consolidation or transfer (if the plan is then terminated), the
          surviving Plan provides each Participant a benefit equal to or
          greater than the benefit each Participant would have received had the
          Plan terminated immediately before the merger or consolidation or
          transfer. The Trustee possesses the specific authority to enter into
          merger agreements or direct transfer of assets agreements with the
          trustees of other retirement plans described in Code Section 401(a),
          including an elective transfer, and to accept the direct transfer of
          plan assets, or to transfer plan assets, as a party to any such
          agreement.

          The Trustee may accept a direct transfer of plan assets on behalf of
          an Employee prior to the date the Employee satisfies the Plan's
          eligibility conditions. If the Trustee accepts such a direct transfer
          of plan assets, the Advisory Committee and Trustee must treat the
          Employee as a Participant for all purposes of the Plan except the
          Employee is not a Participant for purposes of sharing in Employer
          contributions under the Plan until he actually becomes a Participant
          in the Plan.

          The Trustee, after August 9,1988, may not consent to, or be a
          party to a merger, consolidation or transfer of assets with a defined
          benefit plan, except with respect to an elective transfer. The
          Trustee will hold, administer and distribute the transferred assets
          as a part of the Trust Fund and the Trustee must maintain a separate
          Employer contribution Account for the benefit of the Employee on
          whose behalf the Trustee accepted the transfer in order to reflect
          the value of the transferred assets. Unless a transfer of assets to
          this Plan is an elective transfer, the Plan will preserve all Code
          Section 411(d)(6) protected benefits with respect to those
          transferred assets, in the manner described in Section 13.02. A
          transfer is an elective transfer if: (1) the transfer satisfies the
          first paragraph of this Section 13.06; (2) the transfer is voluntary,
          under a fully informed election by the Participant; (3) the
          Participant has an alternative that retains his Code Section
          411(d)(6) protected benefits (including an option to leave his
          benefit in the transferor plan, if that plan is not terminating); (4)
          the transfer satisfies the applicable spousal consent requirements of
          the Code; (5) the transferor plan satisfies the joint and survivor
          notice requirements of the Code, if the Participant's transferred
          benefit is subject to those requirements; (6) the Participant has a
          right to immediate distribution from the transferor plan, in lieu of
          the elective transfer; (7) the transferred benefit is at least the
          greater of the single sum distribution provided by the transferor
          plan for which the Participant is eligible or the present value of
          the Participant's accrued benefit under the transferor plan payable
          at that plan's normal retirement age; (8) the Participant has a 100%
          Nonforfeitable interest in the transferred benefit; and (9) the
          transfer otherwise satisfies applicable Treasury regulations. An
          elective transfer may occur between qualified plans of any type. Any
          direct transfer of assets from a defined benefit plan after August 9,
          1988, which is not an elective transfer will render the Employer's
          Plan individually designed.



          DISTRIBUTION RESTRICTIONS UNDER CODE SECTION 401(K). If the Plan
          receives a direct transfer (by merger or otherwise) of elective
          contributions (or amounts treated as elective contributions) under a
          Plan with a Code Section 401(k) arrangement, the distribution
          restrictions of Code Sections 401(k)(2) and (10) continue to apply
          to those transferred elective contributions.

12.06     "TERMINATION"
          Upon termination of the Plan, the distribution provisions of Article
          VI remain operative, with the following exceptions:

          (1)  If the present value of the Participant's Nonforfeitable
               Accrued Benefit does not exceed $3,500, the Advisory
               Committee will direct the Trustee to distribute the
               Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit to him in
               lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after
               the Plan terminates; and

          (2)  If the present value of the Participant's Nonforfeitable
               Accrued Benefit exceeds $3,500, the Participant or the
               Beneficiary, in addition may elect to have the Trustee
               commence distribution of his Nonforfeitable Accrued
               Benefit as soon as administratively practicable after the
               Plan terminates.

               To liquidate the Trust, the Advisory Committee will
               purchase a deferred annuity contract for each Participant
               which protects the Participant's distribution rights
               under the Plan, if the Participant's Nonforfeitable
               Accrued Benefit exceeds $3,500 and the Participant does
               not elect an immediate distribution pursuant to Paragraph
               (2). The Trust will continue until the Trustee in
               accordance with the direction of the Advisory Committee
               has distributed all of the benefits under the Plan.

               On each valuation date, the Advisory Committee will
               credit any part of a Participant's Accrued Benefit
               retained in the Trust with its proportionate share of the
               Trust's income, expenses, gains and losses, both realized
               and unrealized. Upon termination of the Plan, the Amount,
               if any, in a suspense account under Article III will
               revert to the Employer, subject to the conditions of the
               Treasury regulations permitting such a reversion. A
               resolution or amendment to freeze all future benefit
               accrual but otherwise to continue maintenance of this
               Plan, is not a termination for purposes of this Section 
               12.06.

               DISTRIBUTION RESTRICTIONS UNDER CODE SECTION 401(K). If
               the Employer's Plan includes a Code Section 401(k) 
               arrangement or if transferred assets described in Section 
               13.06 are subject to the distribution restrictions of Code 
               Sections 401(k)(2) and (10), the special distribution 
               provisions of this Section 12.06 are subject to the 
               restrictions of this paragraph. The portion of the Participant's
               Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit attributable to elective
               contributions (or to amounts treated under the Code
               Section 401(k) arrangement as elective contributions) is
               not distributable on account of Plan termination, as
               described in this Section 12.06, unless: (a) the
               Participant otherwise is entitled under the Plan to a
               distribution of that portion of his Nonforfeitable
               Accrued Benefit; or (b) the Plan termination occurs
               without the establishment of a successor plan. A
               successor plan under clause (b) is a defined contribution
               plan (other than an ESOP) maintained by the Employer (or
               by a related employer) at the time of the termination of
               the Plan or within the period ending twelve months after
               the final distribution of assets. A distribution made
               after March 31, 1988, pursuant to clause (b), must be part
               of a lump sum distribution to the Participant of his
               Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit.

               In the event of the termination or partial termination of
               the plan, the account balance of each affected
               participant will be nonforfeitable.

                                  ARTICLE XIII
                            CODE SECTION 401(k) ARRANGEMENTS

13.01     "ELIGIBILITY"
          This Article XIII applies to an Employer's Plan only if the Plan 
          includes a Code Section 401(k) arrangement.

          An employee's eligibility to make Elective Deferrals may not be
          conditioned upon the completion of more than one (1) year of service
          or the attainment of more than age twenty-one (21). An employee's
          eligibility to receive Matching Contributions, Qualified Matching
          Contributions, or Qualified Nonelective Contributions may be
          conditioned upon the completion of up to two (2) years of service. No
          contributions or benefits (other than Matching Contributions or
          Qualified Matching Contributions) may be conditioned upon an
          employee's Elective Deferrals.

          The Employer must specify a reasonable period in the Adoption
          Agreement of at least once each calendar year during which a
          participant may elect to commence Elective Deferrals. Such election
          may not be made retroactively. A participant's election to commence
          elective Deferrals must remain in effect until modified or
          terminated.

          The Employer must also specify in the Adoption Agreement a reasonable
          period at least once each calendar year to terminate an election or
          to modify the amount or frequency of his or her Elective Deferrals.

13.02     "SALARY REDUCTION AGREEMENT"
          The Employer will elect in its Adoption Agreement the terms of the
          Code Section 401(k) arrangement under the Plan.

          Any Employee eligible to participate in the Plan may file a salary 
          reduction agreement with the Advisory Committee. The salary reduction
          agreement may not be effective earlier than the following date which 
          occurs last: (i) the Employee's Plan Entry Date (or, in the case of 
          a reemployed Employee, his reparticipation date under Article II); 
          (ii) the execution date of the Employee's salary reduction agreement;
          (iii) the date the Employer adopts the Code Section 401(k) 
          arrangement by executing the Adoption Agreement; or (iv) the 
          effective date of the Code Section 401(k) arrangement, as specified  
          in the Employer's Adoption Agreement. A salary reduction agreement  
          must specify the amount of Compensation (as defined in Section 1.12) 
          or percentage of Compensation the Employee wishes to defer. The 
          salary reduction agreement will apply only to Compensation which 
          becomes currently available to the Employee after the effective
          date of the salary reduction agreement. The Employer will apply a
          reduction election to all Compensation (and to increases in such
          Compensation) unless the Employee specifies in his salary reduction
          agreement to limit the election to certain Compensation. The Employer
          will specify in Adoption Agreement Section 3.01 the rules and
          restrictions applicable to the Employee's salary reduction
          agreements, however, under no circumstances, may a salary reduction
          agreement or other deferral mechanism be adopted retroactively.

13.03     "DEFINITIONS"
          For purposes of this Article XIII:

          (1)         "ACTUAL DEFERRAL PERCENTAGE" shall mean, for a specified
                      group of participants for a Plan Year, the average of the
                      ratios (calculated separately for each participant in
                      such group) of (1) the amount of employer contributions
                      actually paid over to the trust on behalf of such
                      participant for the Plan Year to (2) the participant's
                      Compensation for such Plan Year to (whether or not the
                      employee was a participant for the entire Plan Year).
                      Employer contributions on behalf of any participant shall
                      include: (1) any Elective Deferrals made pursuant to the
                      participant's deferral election, including Excess
                      Elective Deferrals of Highly Compensated Employees, but
                      excluding Elective Deferrals that are taken into account
                      in the Contribution Percentage test (provided the ADP
                      test is satisfied both with and without exclusion of
                      these Elective Deferrals); and (2) at the election of the
                      employer, Qualified Nonelective Contributions and
                      Qualified Matching Contributions. For purposes of
                      computing Actual Deferral Percentages, an employee who
                      would be a participant but for the failure to make
                      Elective Deferrals shall be treated as a participant on
                      whose behalf no Elective Deferrals are made.

          (2)         "AGGREGATE LIMIT" shall mean the sum of (i) 125 percent
                      of the greater of the ADP of the Nonhighly Compensated
                      Employees for the Plan Year or the ACP of Nonhighly
                      Compensated Employees under the plan subject to Code
                      Section 401(m) for the Plan Year beginning with or 
                      within the Plan Year of the CODA and (ii) the lesser of 
                      200% or two plus the lesser of such ADP or ACP.  "Lesser"
                      is substituted for "greater" in (i) above, and "greater" 
                      is substituted for "lesser" after "two plus the" in (ii),
                      if it would result in a larger Aggregate Limit.

          (3)         "AVERAGE CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE" shall mean the average
                      of the Contribution Percentages of the Eligible
                      Participants in a group.

          (4)         "CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE" shall mean the ratio (expressed
                      as a percentage) of the participant's Contribution
                      Percentage Amounts to the participant's Compensation for
                      the Plan Year (whether or not the employee was a
                      participant for the entire Plan Year).

PLAN DOCUMENT


          (5)         "CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE AMOUNTS" shall mean the sum of
                      the Employee Contributions, Matching Contributions, and
                      Qualified Matching Contributions (to the extent not taken
                      into account for purposes of the ADP test) made under the
                      plan on behalf of the participant for the Plan Year. If
                      so elected in the adoption agreement the employer may
                      include Qualified Nonelective Contributions in the
                      Contribution Percentage Amounts. The employer also may
                      elect to use Elective Deferrals in the Contribution
                      Percentage Amounts so long as the ADP test is met before
                      the Elective Deferrals are used in the ACP test and
                      continues to be met following the exclusion of those
                      Elective Deferrals that are used to meet the ACP test.

          (6)         "ELECTIVE DEFERRALS" shall mean any employer
                      contributions made to the plan at the election of the
                      participant, in lieu of cash compensation, and shall
                      include contributions made pursuant to a salary reduction
                      agreement or other deferral mechanism. With respect to
                      any taxable year, a participant's Elective Deferral is
                      the sum of all Employer contributions made on behalf of
                      such participant pursuant to an election to defer under
                      any qualified CODA as described in Code Section 401(k), 
                      any simplified employee pension cash or deferred 
                      arrangement as described in Code Section 402(h)(1)(B), 
                      any eligible deferred compensation plan under Code 
                      Section 457, any plan as described under Code Section 
                      501(c)(18), and any employer contributions made on behalf
                      of a participant for the purchase of an annuity contract 
                      under Code Section 403(b) pursuant to a salary reduction 
                      agreement.

          (7)         "ELIGIBLE PARTICIPANT" shall mean any employee who is
                      eligible to make an Employee Contribution, or an Elective
                      Deferral (if the employer takes such contributions into
                      account in the calculation of the Contribution
                      Percentage), or to receive a Matching Contribution
                      (including forfeitures) or a Qualified Matching
                      Contribution.

          (8)         "EXCESS AGGREGATE CONTRIBUTIONS" shall mean, with respect
                      to any Plan Year, the excess of:

                      (a)      The aggregate Contribution Percentage Amounts
                               taken into account in computing the numerator of
                               the Contribution Percentage actually made on
                               behalf of Highly Compensated Employees for such
                               Plan Year, over

                      (b)      The maximum Contribution Percentage Amounts
                               permitted by the ACP test (determined by
                               reducing contributions made on behalf of Highly
                               Compensated Employees in order of their
                               Contribution Percentages beginning with the
                               highest of such percentages).

          (9)         "EXCESS CONTRIBUTIONS" shall mean, with respect to any
                      Plan Year, the excess of:

                      (a)      The aggregate amount of employer contributions
                               actually taken into account in computing the ADP
                               of Highly Compensated Employees for such Plan
                               Year, over

                      (b)      The maximum amount of such contributions
                               permitted by the ADP test (determined by
                               reducing contributions made on behalf of Highly
                               Compensated Employees in order of the ADPs,
                               beginning with the highest of such percentages).

          (10)        "EXCESS ELECTIVE DEFERRALS" shall mean those Elective
                      Deferrals that are includible in a participant's gross
                      income under Section 402(g) of the Code to the extent such
                      participant's Elective Deferrals for a taxable year
                      exceed the dollar limitation under such Code section.
                      Excess Elective Deferrals shall be treated as annual
                      additions under the plan.

          (11)        "MATCHING CONTRIBUTION" shall mean an employer
                      contribution made to this or any other defined
                      contribution plan on behalf of a participant on account
                      of an Employee Contribution made by such participant, or
                      on account of a participant's Elective Deferral, under a
                      plan maintained by the employer.

          (12)        "QUALIFIED NONELECTIVE CONTRIBUTIONS" shall mean
                      contributions (other than Matching Contributions or
                      Qualified Matching Contributions) made by the employer
                      and allocated to participants' accounts that the
                      participants may not elect to receive in cash until
                      distributed from the plan; that are nonforfeitable when
                      made; and that are distributable only in accordance with
                      the distribution provisions that are applicable to
                      Elective Deferrals and Qualified Matching Contributions.

13.04     "ELECTIVE DEFERRALS - CONTRIBUTION LIMITATION"
          No participant shall be permitted to have Elective Deferrals made
          under this plan, or any other qualified plan maintained by the

          Notwithstanding any other provision of the plan, Excess Elective
          Deferrals, plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto,
          shall be distributed no later than April 15 to any participant to
          whose account Excess Elective Deferrals were assigned for the
          preceding year and who claims Excess Elective Deferrals for such
          taxable year.

          Determination of income or loss: Excess Elective Deferrals shall be
          adjusted for any income or loss up to the date of distribution.  The
          income or loss allocable to Excess Elective Deferrals is the sum of:
          (1) income or loss allocable to the participant's Elective Deferral
          account for the taxable year multiplied by a fraction, the numerator
          of which is such participant's Excess Elective Deferrals for the year
          and the denominator is the participant's account balance attributable
          to Elective Deferrals without regard to any income or loss occurring
          during such taxable year; and (2) ten percent of the amount
          determined under (1) multiplied by the number of whole calendar
          months between the end of the participant's taxable year and the date
          of distribution, counting the month of distribution if distribution
          occurs after the 15th of such month.

13.06     "ACTUAL DEFERRAL PERCENTAGE TEST"
          The Actual Deferral Percentage (hereinafter "ADP") for participants
          who are Highly Compensated Employees for each Plan Year and the ADP
          for participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the same
          Plan Year must satisfy one of the following tests:

          (1)         The ADP for participants who are Highly Compensated
                      Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the ADP for
                      participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for
                      the same Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or

          (2)         The ADP for participants who are Highly Compensated
                      Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the ADP for
                      participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for
                      the same Plan Year multiplied by 2.0, provided that the
                      ADP for participants who are Highly Compensated Employees
                      does not exceed the ADP for participants who are
                      Nonhighly Compensated Employees by more than two (2)
                      percentage points.

                      SPECIAL RULES:

                      1.       The ADP for any participant who is a Highly
                               Compensated Employee for the Plan Year and who
                               is eligible to have Elective Deferrals (and
                               Qualified Nonelective Contributions or Qualified
                               Matching Contributions, or both, if treated as
                               Elective Deferrals for purposes of the ADP test)
                               allocated to his or her accounts under two or
                               more arrangements described in Section 401(k) 
                               of the Code, that are maintained by the 
                               employer, shall be determined as if such 
                               Elective Deferrals (and, if applicable, such 
                               Qualified Nonelective Contributions or Qualified
                               Matching Contributions, or both) were made under
                               a single arrangement. If a Highly Compensated 
                               Employee participates in two or more cash or 
                               deferred arrangements that have different Plan 
                               Years, all cash or deferred arrangements ending 
                               with or within the same calendar year shall be 
                               treated as a single arrangement.

                      2.       In the event that this plan satisfies the
                               requirements of Ssections 401(k), 401(a)(4), or 
                               410(b) of the Code only if aggregated with one 
                               or more other plans, or if one or more other 
                               plans satisfy the requirements of such sections 
                               of the Code only if aggregated with this plan, 
                               then this Section shall be applied by determin-
                               ing the ADP of employees as if all such plans 
                               were a single plan. For Plan Years beginning 
                               after December 31, 1989, plans may be aggregated
                               in order to satisfy Section 401(k) of the Code 
                               only if they have the same Plan Year.

                      3.       For purposes of determining the ADP of a
                               participant who is a five-percent owner or one
                               of the ten most highly paid Highly Compensated
                               Employees, the Elective Deferrals (and Qualified
                               Nonelective Contributions or Qualified Matching
                               Contributions, or both, if treated as Elective
                               Deferrals for purposes of the ADP test) and
                               Compensation of such participant shall include
                               the Elective Deferrals (and, if applicable
                               Qualified Nonelective Contributions and
                               Qualified Matching Contributions, or both) and
                               Compensation for the Plan Year of Family Members
                               (as defined in Section 414(g)(6) of the Code). 
                               Family Members, with respect to such Highly 
                               Compensated Employees, shall be disregarded as 
                               separate employees in determining the ADP both 
                               for participants who are Nonhighly Compensated
                               Employees and for participants who are Highly
                               Compensated Employees.

                      4.       For purposes of determining the ADP test,
                               Elective Deferrals, Qualified Nonelective
                               Contributions and Qualified Matching
                               Contributions must be made before the last day
                               of the twelve-month period immediately following
                               the Plan Year to which contributions relate.

                      5.       The employer shall maintain records sufficient
                               to demonstrate satisfaction of the ADP test and
                               the amount of Qualified Nonelective
                               Contributions of Qualified Matching
                               Contributions, or both, used in such test.

                      6.       The determination and treatment of the ADP
                               amounts of any participant shall satisfy such
                               other requirements as may be prescribed by the
                               Secretary of the Treasury.

PLAN DOCUMENT

13.07     "DISTRIBUTION OF EXCESS CONTRIBUTIONS"
          Notwithstanding any other provision of this plan, Excess
          Contributions, plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto,
          shall be distributed no later than the last day of each Plan Year to
          participants to whose accounts such Excess Contributions were
          allocated for the preceding Plan Year. If such excess amounts are
          distributed more than 2-1/2 months after the last day of the Plan
          Year in which such excess amounts arose, a ten (10) percent excise
          tax will be imposed on the employer maintaining the plan with respect
          to such amounts. Such distributions shall be made to Highly
          Compensated Employees on the basis of the respective portions of the
          Excess Contributions attributable to each of such employees. Excess
          Contributions shall be allocated to Participants who are subject to
          the family member aggregation rules of Section 414(g)(6) of the Code
          in the manner prescribed by the regulations.

          Excess Contributions (including the amounts recharacterized) shall be
          treated as annual additions under the plan.

          Determination of Income or Loss: Excess Contributions shall be
          adjusted for any income or loss up to the date of distribution. The
          income or loss allocable to Excess Contributions is the sum of: (1)
          income or loss allocable to the participant's Elective Deferral
          account (and, if applicable, the Qualified Nonelective Contribution
          account or the Qualified Matching Contribution account or both) for
          the Plan Year multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is
          such participant's Excess contributions for the year and the
          denominator is the participant's account balance attributable to
          Elective Deferrals (and Qualified Nonelective Contributions or
          Qualified Matching Contributions, or both, if any of such
          contributions are included in the ADP test) without regard to any
          income or loss occurring during such Plan Year; and (2) ten percent
          of the amount determined under (1) multiplied by the number of whole
          calendar months between the end of the Plan Year and the date of
          distribution, counting the month of distribution if distribution
          occurs after the 15th of such month.

          Accounting for Excess Contributions: Excess Contributions shall be
          distributed from the participant's Elective Deferral account and
          Qualified Matching Contribution account (if applicable) in proportion
          to the participant's Elective Deferrals and Qualified Matching
          Contributions (to the extent used in the ADP test) for the Plan Year.
          Excess Contributions shall be distributed from the participant's
          Qualified Nonelective Contribution account only to the extent that
          such Excess Contributions exceed the balance in the participant's
          Elective Deferral account and Qualified Matching Contribution
          account.

13.08     "MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS"
          If elected by the employer in the adoption agreement, the employer
          will make Matching Contributions to the plan.

13.09     "QUALIFIED MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS"
          If elected by the employer in the adoption agreement, the employer
          will make Qualified Matching Contributions to the plan.

13.10     "LIMITATIONS ON MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS"
          The ACP for participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for
          each Plan Year and the ACP for participants who are Nonhighly
          Compensated Employees for the same Plan Year must satisfy one of the
          following tests:

          (A)         The ACP for participants who are Highly Compensated
                      Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the ACP for
                      participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for
                      the same Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or
            
          (B)         The ACP for participants who are Highly Compensated
                      Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the ACP for
                      participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for
                      the same Plan Year multiplied by two (2), provided that
                      the ACP for participants who are Highly Compensated
                      Employees does not exceed the ACP for participants who
                      are Nonhighly Compensated Employees by more than two (2)
                      percentage points.

                      SPECIAL RULES:
                      1.       Multiple Use: If one or more Highly Compensated
                               Employees participate in both a CODA and a plan
                               subject to the ACP test maintained by the
                               employer and the sum of the ADP or ACP of those
                               Highly Compensated Employees subject to either
                               or both tests exceeds the Aggregate Limit, then
                               the ACP of those Highly Compensated Employees
                               who also participate in a CODA will be reduced
                               (beginning with such Highly Compensated Employee
                               whose ACP is the highest) so that the limit is
                               not exceeded. The amount by which each Highly
                               Compensated Employee's Contribution Percentage
                               Amounts is reduced shall be treated as an Excess
                               Aggregate Contribution. The ADP or ACP of the
                               Highly Compensated Employees are determined
                               after any corrections required to meet the ADP
                               or ACP tests. Multiple use does not occur if
                               either the ADP or ACP of the Highly Compensated
                               Employees does not exceed 1.25 multiplied by the
                               ADP or ACP of the Nonhighly Compensated
                               Employees.

                      2.       For purposes of this Section, the Contribution
                               Percentage for any participant who is a Highly
                               Compensated Employee and who is eligible to have
                               Contribution Percentage Amounts allocated to his
                               or her account under two or more plans described
                               in Section 401(a) of the Code, or arrangements
                               described in Section 401(k) of the Code that are
                               maintained by the employer, shall be determined
                               as if the total of such Contribution Percentage
                               Amounts was made under each plan. If a Highly
                               Compensated Employee participates in two or more
                               cash or deferred arrangements that have
                               different plan years, all cash or deferred
                               arrangements ending with or within the same
                               calendar year shall be treated as a single
                               arrangement.

                      3.       In the event that this plan satisfies the
                               requirements of Sections 401(m), 401(a)(4) or 
                               410(b) of the Code only if aggregated with one 
                               or more other plans, or if one or more other 
                               plans satisfy the requirements of such sections 
                               of the Code only if aggregated with this plan, 
                               then this Section shall be applied by
                               determining the Contribution Percentage of
                               employees as if all such plans were a single
                               plan. For plan years beginning after December
                               31, 1989, plans may be aggregated in order to
                               satisfy Section 401(m) of the Code only if they
                               have the same Plan Year.

                      4.       For purposes of determining the Contribution
                               percentage of a participant who is a
                               five-percent owner or one of the most highly
                               paid Highly Compensated Employees, the
                               Contribution Percentage Amounts and Compensation
                               of such participant shall include the
                               Contribution Percentage Amounts and Compensation
                               for the Plan Year of Family Members (as defined
                               in Section 414(g)(6) of the Code). Family 
                               Members, with respect to Highly Compensated
                               Employees, shall be disregarded as separate 
                               employees in determining the Contribution 
                               Percentage both for participants who are 
                               Nonhighly Compensated Employees and for 
                               participants who are Highly Compensated 
                               Employees.

                      5.       For purposes of determining the Contribution
                               Percentage test, Employee Contributions are
                               considered to have been made in the Plan Year in
                               which contributed to the trust. Matching
                               Contributions and Qualified Nonelective
                               Contributions will be considered made for a Plan
                               Year if made no later than the end of the
                               twelve-month period beginning on the day after
                               the close of the Plan Year.

                       6.      The employer shall maintain records sufficient
                               to demonstrate satisfaction of the ACP test and
                               the amount of Qualified Nonelective
                               Contributions or Qualified Matching
                               Contributions, or both, used in such test.

                       7.      The determination and treatment of the
                               Contribution Percentage of any participant shall
                               satisfy such other requirements as may be
                               prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury.

13.11     "DISTRIBUTION OF EXCESS AGGREGATE CONTRIBUTIONS"
          Notwithstanding any other provision of this plan, Excess Aggregate
          Contributions, plus any income and minus any loss allocable
          thereto, shall be distributed no later than the last day of each Plan
          Year to participants whose accounts such Excess Aggregate
          Contributions were allocated for the preceding Plan Year. Excess
          Aggregate Contributions shall be allocated to participants who are
          subject to the family member aggregation rules of Section 414(g)(6)
          of the Code in the  manner prescribed by the regulations. If such
          Excess Aggregate Contributions are distributed more than 2-1/2 months
          after the last day of the Plan Year in which such excess amounts
          arose, a ten (10) percent excise tax will be imposed on the employer
          maintaining the plan with respect to those amounts. Excess Aggregate
          Contributions shall be treated as annual additions under the plan.

          Determination of Income or Loss: Excess Aggregate Contributions shall
          be adjusted for any income or loss up to the date of distribution.
          The income or loss allocable to Excess Aggregate Contributions is the
          sum of: (1) income or loss allocable to the participant's Employee
          Contribution account, Matching Contribution account (if any, and if
          all amounts therein are not used in the ADP test) and, if applicable,
          Qualified Nonelective Contribution account and Elective Deferral
          account for the Plan Year multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
          which is such participant's Excess Aggregate Contributions for the
          year and the denominator is the participant's account balance(s)
          attributable to Contribution Percentage Amounts without regard to any
          income or loss occurring during such Plan Year; and (2) ten percent
          of the amount determined under (1) multiplied by the number of whole
          calendar months between the end of the Plan Year and the date of
          distribution, counting the month of distribution if distribution
          occurs after the 15th of such month.

          Accounting for Excess Aggregate Contributions: Excess Aggregate
          Contributions shall be distributed on a pro rata basis from the
          participant's Matching Contribution account and qualified Matching
          Contribution account (and, if applicable, the participant's Qualified
          Nonelective Contribution account or Elective Deferral account, or
          both).

          Such determination shall be made after first determining Excess
          Elective Deferrals pursuant to Section 13.03(10) and then
          determining Excess Contributions pursuant to Section 13.03(9).

13.12     "QUALIFIED NONELECTIVE CONTRIBUTIONS"
          The employer may elect to make Qualified Nonelective Contributions
          under the plan on behalf of employees as provided in the adoption
          agreement.

          In addition, in lieu of distributing Excess Contributions as provided
          in Section 13.07 of the plan, or Excess Aggregate Contributions as
          provided in Section 13.11 of the plan, and to the extent elected by
          the employer in the adoption agreement, the employer may make
          Qualified Nonelective Contributions on behalf of Nonhighly
          Compensated Employees that are sufficient to satisfy either the
          Actual Deferral Percentage test or the Average Contribution
          Percentage test, or both, pursuant to regulations under the Code.

13.13     "DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS"
          Elective Deferrals, Qualified Nonelective Contributions, and
          Qualified Matching Contributions, and income allocable to each are
          not distributable to a participant or his or her beneficiary or
          beneficiaries, in accordance with such participant's or beneficiary
          or beneficiaries election, earlier than upon separation from service,
          death, or disability.

          Such amounts may also be distributed upon:

          1.          Termination of the plan without the establishment of
                      another defined contribution plan.

          2.          The disposition by a corporation to an unrelated
                      corporation of substantially all of the assets (within
                      the meaning of Section 409(d)(2) of the Code) used in a 
                      trade or business of such corporation if such corporation
                      continues to maintain this plan after the disposition,
                      but only with respect to employees who continue
                      employment with the corporation acquiring such assets.

          3.          The disposition by a corporation to an unrelated entity
                      of such corporation's interest in a subsidiary (within
                      the meaning of Section 409(d)(3) of the Code) if such
                      corporation continues to maintain this plan, but only
                      with respect to employees who continue employment with
                      such subsidiary.

          4.          The attainment of age 59-1/2.

                      All distributions that may be made pursuant to one or
                      more of the foregoing distributable events are subject to
                      the spousal and participant consent requirements (if
                      applicable) contained in Sections 401(a)(11) and 417 of 
                      the Code.

                             AMENDATORY AGREEMENT
       Adoption of 401(a)(31) Model Amendment (Revenue Procedure 93-12)


Kemper Growth Fund, as Prototype Plan Sponsor ("Sponsor"), makes this
Amendatory Agreement to the Kemper Retirement Plan Prototype.

                                  WITNESSETH

        WHEREAS, it is necessary to amend the Prototype Plan basic plan
document to provide plan participants with the option of electing a direct
transfer of any eligible rollover distribution to an eligible retirement plan;
and 

        WHEREAS, the Prototype Plan gives the Sponsor authority, without the
approval of any adopting employer, to make amendments necessary to conform the
Prototype Plan to any requirement for qualification under the Internal Revenue
Code.

        NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the above premises, the Sponsor as
designated agent for all sponsoring organizations for purposes of making plan
amendments hereby amends the Prototype Plan to include the following amendment,
as an appendix to the basic plan document.  This amendment, which is identical
to the model language in the Appendix of Revenue Procedure 93-12, applies to
any plan maintained by an employer under the Prototype Plan.

                       APPENDIX TO BASIC PLAN DOCUMENT


ARTICLE VI

6.02(C). THIS ARTICLE APPLIES TO DISTRIBUTIONS MADE ON OR AFTER JANUARY 1,
1993.

        Notwithstanding any provision of the plan to the contrary that would
otherwise limit a distributee's election under the Article, a Distributee may
elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the plan administrator, to
have any portion of an eligible rollover distribution paid directly to an
eligible retirement plan specified by the distributee in a direct rollover.

6.02(D). DEFINITIONS.

        (1)     ELIGIBLE ROLLOVER DISTRIBUTION:  An eligible rollover
distribution is any distribution of all or any portion of the balance to the
credit of the distributee, except that an eligible rollover distribution does
not include: any distribution that is on of a series of substantially equal
periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) make for the life (or
life expectancy) of the distributee or the joint lives (or joint life
expectancies) of the distributee and the distributee's designated beneficiary,
or for a specified period of ten years or more; any distribution to the extent
such distribution is required under section 401(a)(9) of the Code; and the
portion of any distribution that is not includible in gross income (determined
without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized appreciation with respect to
employer securities).

        (2)     ELIGIBLE RETIREMENT PLAN: An eligible retirement plan is an
individual retirement account described in section 408(a) of the Code, an
individual retirement annuity described in section 408(b) of the Code, an
annuity plan described in section 403(a) of the Code, or a qualified trust
described in section 401(a) of the Code, that accepts the distributee's
eligible rollover distribution.  However, in the case of an eligible rollover
distribution to the surviving spouse, an eligible retirement plan is an
individual retirement account or individual retirement annuity.

        (3)     DISTRIBUTEE:  A distributee includes an employee or former
employee.  In addition, the employee's or former employee's surviving spouse
and the employee's or former employee's spouse or former spouse who is the
alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order, as defined in
section 414(p) of the Code, are distributees with regard to the interest of the
spouse or former spouse.

        (4)     DIRECT ROLLOVER:  A direct rollover is a payment by the plan to
the eligible retirement plan specified by the distributee.

With respect to each adopting employer's plan maintained under this Prototype
Plan, this amendment is effective as of January 1, 1993.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Sponsor has executed this Amendatory Agreement on the
20th day of January, 1993.

                               APPENDIX ARTICLE B

RESOLVED, that Kemper Growth Fund ("Sponsor"), in its capacity as a prototype
sponsoring organization under IRS Revenue Procedure 89-9, amend the Prototype
Plan basic plan document by adopting Appendix Article B, a copy of which is
attached to this resolution. The amendment will be effective for all adopting
employers of the Prototype Plan for plan years beginning after December 31,
1993.

Adopted this seventeenth day of February, 1994.

                                   ARTICLE B
                        APPENDIX TO BASIC PLAN DOCUMENT

          This Article is necessary to comply with the Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1993 (OBRA '93) and is an integral part of the basic plan
document. Section 11.07 applies to any modification or amendment of this
Article.

          In addition to other applicable limitations set forth in the plan,
and notwithstanding any other provision of the plan to the contrary, for plan
years beginning on or after January 1, 1994, the annual compensation of each
employee taken into account under the plan shall not exceed the OBRA '93 annual
compensation limit. The OBRA '93 annual compensation limit is $150,000, as
adjusted by the Commissioner for increases in the cost of living in accordance
with Section 401(a)(17)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code. The cost-of-living
adjustment in effect for a calendar year applies to any period, not exceeding
12 months, over which compensation is determined (determination period)
beginning in such calendar year. If a determination period consists of fewer
than 12 months, the OBRA '93 annual compensation limit will be multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months in the determination
period, and the denominator of which is 12.

          For plan years beginning on or after January 1, 1994, any reference
in this plan to the limitation under Section 401(a)(17) of the Code shall mean
the OBRA '93 annual compensation limit set forth in this provision.

          If compensation for any prior determination period is taken into
account in determining an employee's benefits accruing in the current plan
year, the compensation for that prior determination period is subject to the
OBRA '93 annual compensation limit in effect for that prior determination
period. For this purpose, for determination periods beginning before the first
day of the first plan year beginning on or after January 1, 1994, the OBRA '93
annual compensation limit is $150,000.

</TABLE>

The Grantor whose name appears above is establishing an Individual Retirement
Account under section 408(a) to provide for his or her retirement and for the
support of his or her beneficiaries after death.  The Trustee named above has
given the Grantor the disclosure statement required under Regulations section
1.406-6. The Grantor has assigned the trust __________ dollars ($_______) in
cash. The Grantor and the Trustee made the following agreement:

ARTICLE I
The Trustee may accept additional cash contributions on behalf of the Grantor
for a tax year of the Grantor. The total cash contributions are limited to
$2,000 for the tax year unless the contribution is a rollover described in
section 402(c) (but only after December 31, 1992), 403(a)(4), 403(b)(8),
408(d)(3), or an employer contribution to a simplified employee pension plan as
described in section 408(1). Rollover contributions before January 1, 1993,
include rollovers described in section 402(a)(5), 402(a)(7), 403(a)(4),
403(b)(8), 408(d)(3) or an employer contribution to a simplified employee
pension plan described in section 408(k).

ARTICLE II
The Grantor's interest in the balance in the trust account is nonforfeitable.

ARTICLE III
1. No part of the trust funds may be invested in life insurance contracts, nor
may the assets of the trust account be commingled with other property except in
a common trust fund or common investment fund (within the meaning of section
408(a)(5).

2. No part of the trust funds may be invested in collectibles (within the
meaning of section 408(m).

ARTICLE IV
1. Notwithstanding any provision of this agreement to the contrary, the
distribution of the Grantor's interest in the trust account shall be made in
accordance with the following requirements and shall otherwise comply with
section 408(a)(6) and Proposed Regulations section 1.408-8, including the
incidental death benefit provisions of Proposed Regulations section 
1. 401(a)(9)-2, the provisions of which are herein incorporated by reference.

2. Unless otherwise elected by the time distributions are required to begin to
the Grantor under paragraph 3, or to the surviving spouse under paragraph 4,
other than in the case of a life annuity, life expectancies shall be
recalculated annually. Such election shall be irrevocable as to the Grantor and
the surviving spouse and shall apply to all subsequent years. The life
expectancy of a nonspouse beneficiary may not be recalculated.

3. The Grantor's entire interest in the trust account must be, or begin to be,
distributed by the Grantor's required beginning date, April 1 following the
calendar year end in which the Grantor reaches age 70 1/2.  By that date, the
Grantor may elect, in a manner acceptable to the trustee, to have the balance
in the trust account distributed in:

(A) A single sum payment.

(B) An annuity contract that provides equal or substantially equal monthly,
quarterly, or annual payments over the life of the grantor.

(C) An annuity contract that provides equal or substantially equal monthly,
quarterly, or annual payments over the joint and last survivor lives of the
Grantor and his or her designated beneficiary.

(D) Equal or substantially equal annual payments over a specified period that
may not be longer than the Grantor's life expectancy.

(E) Equal or substantially equal payments over a specified period that may not
be longer than the joint life and last survivor expectancy of the Grantor and
his or her designated beneficiary.

4. If the Grantor dies before his or her entire interest is distributed to him
or her, the entire remaining interest will be distributed as follows:

(A) If the Grantor dies on or after distribution of his or her interest has
begun, distribution must continue to be made in accordance with paragraph 3.

(B) If the Grantor dies before distribution of his or her interest has begun,
the entire remaining interest will, at the election of the Grantor or, if the
Grantor has not so elected, at the election of the beneficiary or
beneficiaries, either

(I) Be distributed by the December 31 of the year containing the fifth
anniversary of the Grantor's death, or

(II) Be distributed in equal or substantially equal payments over the life or
life expectancy of the designated beneficiary or beneficiaries starting by
December 31 of the year following the year of the Grantor's death. If, however,
the beneficiary is the Grantor's surviving spouse, then this distribution is
not required to begin before December 31 of the year in which the Grantor would
have turned age 70 1/2.

(C) Except where distribution in the form of an annuity meeting the
requirements of section 408(b)(3) and its related regulations has irrevocably
commenced, distributions are treated as having begun on the Grantor's required
beginning date, even though payments may actually have been made before that
date.

(D) If the Grantor dies before his or her entire interest has been distributed
and if the beneficiary is other than the surviving spouse, no additional cash
contributions or rollover contributions may be accepted in the account.

5. In the case of a distribution over life expectancy in equal or substantially
equal annual payments, to determine the minimum annual payment for each year,
divide the Grantor's entire interest in the trust as of the close of business
on December 31 of the preceding year by the life expectancy of the Grantor (or
the joint life and last survivor expectancy of the Grantor and the Grantor's
designated beneficiary, or the life expectancy of the designated beneficiary,
whichever applies). In the case of distributions under paragraph 3, determine
the initial life expectancy (or joint life and last survivor expectancy) using
the attained ages of the Grantor and designated beneficiary as of their
birthdays in the year the Grantor reaches age 70 1/2. In the case of a
distribution in accordance with paragraph 4(b)(ii), determine life expectancy
using the attained age of the designated beneficiary as of the beneficiary's
birthday in the year distributions are required to commence.

6. The owner of two or more individual retirement accounts may use the
"alternative method" described in Notice 88-38, 1988-1 C.B. 524, to satisfy the
minimum distribution requirements described above. This method permits an
individual to satisfy these requirements by taking from one individual
retirement account the amount required to satisfy the requirement for another.

IRA DISCLOSURE STATEMENT   IMPORTANT--PLEASE RETAIN

IRAs: AN INTRODUCTION
WHAT IS AN IRA?
Your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) is a trust created for the exclusive
benefit of you and your beneficiaries. It is created by a written instrument
that meets the following requirements:

- - Contribution restrictions stated in Article I of the trust instrument.
- - Investment restrictions stated in Article III of the trust instrument.
- - Distribution of benefits requirements contained in Article IV of the trust
  instrument.
- - The trustee is a bank as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.
- - You will have a non-forfeitable interest in your account.

ESTABLISHING THE PLAN
HOW DO I ESTABLISH MY KEMPER IRA?
Read this disclosure statement and retain it for your files.

Complete and sign the correct application. (2 applications are necessary if
both you and your spouse wish to establish an IRA).

MAKE CHECK PAYABLE TO THE KEMPER FUND OF YOUR CHOICE, AND MAIL COMPLETED
APPLICATION AND CONTRIBUTION TO: 

INVESTORS FIDUCIARY TRUST COMPANY (IFTC) 
P.O. BOX 419356 
KANSAS CITY, MO 64141-6356

MAY I REVOKE MY IRA?
You have the right to revoke your account within seven days of the date on
which your application was signed. To revoke your account write to IFTC at the
address referenced above.

ELIGIBILITY
WHO CAN ADOPT AN IRA?
You may adopt an IRA if you are receiving compensation from employment,
earnings from self-employment or alimony, and have not attained age 70 1/2. You
may also adopt an IRA if you have received a qualifying rollover distribution
from another plan within the preceding 60 days or if you wish to transfer
assets from another IRA.  See "Rollover/Transfer of Assets" section on the
following page.

WHAT ABOUT A NON-WORKING SPOUSE?
A spousal IRA allows an individual who qualifies for an IRA and his or her
non-working spouse to set up two IRA accounts: one for each spouse.  See
"Contribution Limits" section below.

CONTRIBUTION LIMITS
HOW MUCH CAN I CONTRIBUTE EACH YEAR?
If you are receiving compensation you may contribute the lesser of $2,000 or
100% of your compensation.

For a year in which you are receiving compensation, but your spouse is not, you
can set up an IRA for your spouse and contribute the lesser of: $2,250 or 100%
of your compensation.  The maximum contribution must be split between the two
accounts so that no more than $2,000 is placed in either account.

No contribution will be allowed for the year in which you attain age 70 1/2 and
thereafter.

FOR MY IRA, WHAT IS CONSIDERED COMPENSATION?
Compensation is defined as wages, salaries or professional fees, other amounts
received for personal services actually rendered (including income earned from
self-employment), and any taxable alimony received. It does not include earnings
from property such as interest, rents and dividends. If your compensation is
not includable in gross income (such as income earned from sources outside the
United States, it is not treated as compensation in determining the maximum
limitation for the deduction.

WHEN CAN A CONTRIBUTION BE MADE?
Your annual contribution may be made during the taxable year or no later than
the due date for filing your federal income tax return not including extensions.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I OVER-CONTRIBUTE TO MY IRA?
There is a 6% annual excise tax on contributions to an IRA over the annual
contributions limit. However, if you withdraw the excess contribution and
earnings thereon from the IRA before the due date for filing your federal
income tax return (including extensions) for the year of the excess
contribution, the excise tax is not imposed, the withdrawn contribution is not
taxable and the withdrawn earnings are taxable in the year the excess
contribution was made.

If the excess is not withdrawn, you may use the excess as part of next year's
contribution by reducing the next year's contribution by the amount of the
excess. You will, however, be liable for the 6% excise tax on the
over-contributed amount for each year it remains an excess contribution.

HOW DOES MY MARITAL STATUS AFFECT MY IRA? 
Since a contribution is available to each eligible individual, both husband
and wife can contribute if each individually is eligible and each adopts a
separate individual retirement savings program.  The contribution limitation is
computed separately for each spouse, whether or not they file a joint tax
return.

CAN MY EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTE TO MY IRA?
Yes, but these contributions are included in your gross income as compensation
and must be claimed as a deduction on your federal income tax return, just as
if you had received the money and made the contribution.

DEDUCTION LIMITS
HOW MUCH CAN I DEDUCT EACH YEAR? 
If you and your spouse are not covered by a retirement plan at work, the
amount you can deduct is the same as the amount you can contribute (see
"Contribution Limit" above). If you or your spouse are covered by a retirement
plan at work, the $2,000 limit is reduced $10 for each $50 that your adjusted
gross income exceeds:

$40,000 (married filing jointly), $25,000 (single), or $0 (married filing
separately), and the $2,250 limit is reduced $10 for each $44.44 that your
adjusted gross income exceeds $40,000.

DISTRIBUTION FROM YOUR IRA
WHEN CAN I TAKE MONEY OUT OF MY IRA?
You can begin to take money out of your IRA without penalty after age 59 1/2,
but you must begin to take money out by April 1 following the year in which you
attain age 70-1/2.

WHAT IF I TAKE A DISTRIBUTION BEFORE AGE 59 1/2?
There is an additional tax equal to 10% of the taxable amount of a distribution
before age 59 1/2, unless you are disabled or take your distributions as a
series of substantially equal periodic payments over your life or life
expectancy or the joint lives or life expectancies of you and your beneficiary.
The amounts of such periodic payments may not be changed before the later of
five years or at attainment of age 59 1/2.

HOW ARE MY DISTRIBUTIONS TAXED?
The distributions are generally taxed as ordinary income in the year they are
received.  Distributions are non-taxable to the extent they represent a return
of non-deductible contributions. 

The non-taxable percentage of such a distribution is determined by dividing
the undistributed non-deductible contributions to all your IRAs by the total
value of all your IRAs (including SEPs and rollover IRAs).

DO I HAVE A CHOICE ON HOW TO RECEIVE MY DISTRIBUTIONS UPON RETIREMENT?
Yes, subject to the minimum distribution incidental benefit (MDIB) requirement
described below, distributions may be taken as:

- - Regular payments over the joint lives or life expectancies of you and your
  designated beneficiary.

- - An annuity purchased with the money in your IRA payable over the joint lives
  or life expectancies of you and your beneficiary.

- - Annuity or regular payments over any period shorter than the above.

- - A lump sum.

WHAT IS THE MINIMUM ANNUAL DISTRIBUTION?
The amount to be distributed for each year (commencing with the year in which
you attain age 70 1/2) must be at least an amount equal to the quotient
obtained by dividing the value of the IRA by your life expectancy or by the
joint and last survivor life expectancy of you and your designated beneficiary,
subject to the MDIB requirement described on the next page. The minimum
distribution for the year in which you attain age 70 1/2 may be deferred until
April 1 of the following year. Note that if you elect to defer the minimum
distribution for the year you attain age 70 1/2 to the following year, you will
be required to take 2 years' minimum distributions in that year. Life expectancy
and joint and last survivor expectancy are computed by use of the tables
contained in IRS Publication 590. For purposes of this computation, the life
expectancy of you or your spouse may be recalculated annually, while the life
expectancy of a nonspouse beneficiary may not be recalculated.
<PAGE>   4

IRA DISCLOSURE STATEMENT  (CONTINUED)


WHAT IS THE MINIMUM DISTRIBUTION INCIDENTAL BENEFIT (MDIB) REQUIREMENT?
The MDIB Requirement requires that a death benefit under an IRA be incidental
to the primary purpose of the IRA which is to provide your retirement benefits.
Thus, if your designated beneficiary is more than 10 years younger, you must
assume he or she is exactly 10 years younger than you to determine your joint
and last survivor life expectancy.

WHAT IF I HAVE MORE THAN ONE IRA?
If you have more than one IRA, you may take the total amount of your minimum
distribution amounts from one IRA or you may allocate it among your IRAs.

WHAT IF I TAKE AN AMOUNT LESS THAN DESCRIBED ABOVE?
A 50% excise tax will be imposed on the difference between the minimum payout
required and the amount actually paid, unless the underdistribution was due to
reasonable cause.

WHAT ABOUT FEDERAL INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING?
The Trustee may be required to withhold 10% from any taxable distribution from
an IRA unless you elect no withholding at the time your distributions begin.
Whether or not you allow the Trustee to withhold, you may be required to make
quarterly estimated tax payments.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
CAN I USE MY IRA AS COLLATERAL FOR A LOAN?
No. If you use any portion of your IRA as security for a loan the portion so
used will be treated as distributed to you.

HAS THIS PLAN BEEN SUBMITTED TO THE IRS FOR APPROVAL?
The use of IRS Form 5305 (included in this packet) makes such submission
unnecessary.

ROLLOVER/TRANSFER OF ASSETS DO DISTRIBUTIONS FROM MY EMPLOYER'S TAX-QUALIFIED
PLAN QUALIFY FOR IRA ROLLOVER TREATMENT?  
Yes, part or all of a lump-sum distribution or a series of distributions if 
made during one calendar year as the result of termination of employment, 
attainment of age 59 1/2, disability, death, or plan termination may be rolled 
over into an IRA.

You do not have to roll over the total taxable amount of the distribution, but
whatever portion is not rolled over will be taxed as ordinary income in the
year received and will not qualify for either long-term capital gains or
special averaging. The maximum amount that can be rolled over is the total
distribution minus the dollar amount of any voluntary non-deductible
contributions you made.

Please consult your accountant regarding current IRS regulations on the tax
treatment of rollovers from tax-qualified plans.

WHEN MUST THE ROLLOVER BE COMPLETED?
The check and application must be sent to the IRA trustee within 60 days of
receipt of a qualifying distribution.

CAN I TAKE A TAX DEDUCTION FOR A ROLLOVER?
No.  You are not allowed to take a tax deduction for the amount transferred
from a qualified employer's plan or retirement savings program to an IRA.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A ROLLOVER AND A DIRECT TRANSFER OF ASSETS?
With a rollover, you actually receive the distribution from an IRA or qualified
employer's plan. A direct transfer of assets occurs when the existing trustee or
custodian makes the check payable and sends the distribution directly to the
new trustee or custodian.

A rollover distribution from an IRA may be made to you only once a year.  The
one year period begins on the date you receive the IRA distribution. There is
no minimum holding period for a direct transfer of assets from one trustee to
another.

WHAT STEPS DO I NEED TO TAKE TO PROCESS A ROLLOVER OR DIRECT TRANSFER OF
ASSETS?
You can do a rollover by notifying your current IRA trustee or custodian in
writing that you wish to take a distribution from your IRA and roll over to a
new IRA. Once the distribution is received you may either endorse the check over
to the new trustee or deposit the check received and issue a new check for the
amount received to the new trustee and send it along with an IRA Application to
the new trustee.

To accomplish a direct transfer of assets, you simply notify your existing
trustee in writing of your intentions. Then send a copy of the letter along
with an IRA application to the new trustee. Your old trustee will send your
distribution directly to the new trustee.

REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
DOES THE IRA REQUIRE A LOT OF PAPERWORK EACH YEAR?
No, unless you have to pay an excise or penalty tax or you received a
nontaxable distribution or you made a nondeductible contribution (other than a
rollover), no special income tax return is required. If an excise or penalty tax
is due you must file IRS Form 5329 with your Form 1040. If you designate an IRA
contribution as nondeductible you must attach Form 8606 to your 1040 for the
year of the nondeductible contribution and for any year you take a
non-deductible distribution (other than a rollover to another IRA).

SIMPLIFIED EMPLOYEE PENSION PLAN (SEP)
DOES THE KEMPER IRA QUALIFY FOR A SEP?
Yes, but the SEP must be established and maintained by your employer. More
information about establishing a SEP is available from Kemper upon request.

WHAT IS THE MAXIMUM DEDUCTION FOR A SEP-IRA?
The lesser of 15% of your compensation with respect to the sponsoring employer
or $30,000.

IRA APPLICATION GUIDE

1. INFORMATION ABOUT YOU

Fill this section out completely.

2. YOUR BENEFICIARIES

You can change your beneficiaries by writing a letter of instruction to
Investors Fiduciary Trust Company, c/o Kemper Service Company, P.O. Box 419415,
Kansas City, MO 64141-6415. Reference your name, fund, and fund account number.
If you have more than one beneficiary, please identify the primary and
secondary beneficiary.

3. TYPE OF IRA

INDIVIDUAL: A working individual may contribute up to $2,000 or 100% of
compensation, whichever is less.     

SIMPLIFIED EMPLOYEE PLAN (SEP): Must be established and maintained by the 
employer.  The maximum contribution is the lesser of 15% of your compensation
or $30,000.  For more information on establishing a SEP, call Kemper 
Shareholder Services at 1-800-621-1048.

SPOUSAL:  Two applications are necessary if both you and your spouse wish to
establish an IRA.  If you're contributing for both you and your non-working
spouse, the maximum contribution is the lesser of 100% of your compensation or
$2,250.  The maximum contribution must be split between the two accounts so that
no more than $2,000 is placed in either account.

4. TYPE OF TRANSACTION

DIRECT TRANSFER OF ASSETS: When changing custodians on an existing IRA, the IRA
must be released by the present custodian. To obtain information concerning the
transfer of IRA assets call Kemper Shareholder Services at 1-800-621-1048.

ROLLOVER: With a rollover, you actually receive a distribution from an IRA, or
qualified employer's plan. Once the distribution is received, you may either    
endorse the check over to the new trustee or deposit the check received and,
within 60 days of receipt, issue a new check for the amount received to the new
trustee and send it along with an IRA Application to the new trustee.

You may roll over your IRA as many times as you wish. However, each time you do
roll over, the funds must remain with the new trustee for at least 12 months.
(PLEASE NOTE: CONTACT YOUR ACCOUNTANT ABOUT THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF RECEIVING 
A CASH DISTRIBUTION FROM YOUR EMPLOYER'S TAX-QUALIFIED PLAN BEFORE
FORWARDING A CHECK TO KEMPER TO OPEN AN IRA. UNDER CURRENT IRS PROVISIONS, THERE
MAY BE TAX LIABILITY ASSOCIATED WITH TAKING PHYSICAL POSSESSION OF YOUR
DISTRIBUTION, INSTEAD OF AUTOMATICALLY TRANSFERRING YOUR BALANCE INTO A KEMPER
IRA).

5. YOUR INVESTMENT CHOICES

Elect your investment choice(s) from among the Kemper Funds for which you have
received a prospectus. The minimum investment to establish an IRA is $250 per
Fund; the minimum subsequent investment is $50. The minimum initial investment
is $50 per Fund if the Bank Direct Deposit option is selected.

TRUSTEE FEE 
There is an annual $12 trustee fee for the Kemper Family of Funds.
An individual holding two or more accounts in Kemper Family of Funds will be
charged a maximum of $24. The fees may be paid either by separate check or will
be automatically deducted from your account by Investors Fiduciary Trust
Company. This fee is subject to change as provided in Article IX of the 
Individual Retirement Trust Account Form.

WHEN AND HOW THE $12 FEE IS AUTOMATICALLY DEDUCTED 
If the $12 annual trustee fee is not paid by separate check, Investors 
Fiduciary Trust Company will automatically deduct the $12 fee from your 
account. Annual trustee fees are assessed on a calendar year basis.

If you opened your account prior to May 1st of the calendar year, the fee will
be deducted on May 1st. If you opened your account after May 1st of that
calendar year, the $12 fee will be deducted on December 1st. In every calendar
year after the year in which you opened your account, the fee will be deducted
on May 1st.


WHAT TO DO IF YOU ELECT TO PAY THE $12 ANNUAL FEE DIRECTLY
- - You may pay the first year fee by including $12 with your first contribution
and making the proper entry in Section 5 of the IRA Application.

- - If you elect to send in the $12 annual fee by separate check in subsequent
years, make sure to do so prior to the May 1st automatic deduction. Send a
letter referencing the exact name on your account, the fund name and the
account number. Make your check payable to Investors Fiduciary Trust Company
and mail to Investors Fiduciary Trust Company, c/o Kemper Service Company, P.O.
Box 419356, Kansas City, MO 64141-6356.




6. TELEPHONE EXCHANGES

To make exchanges, call 1-800-621-1048. Please see the prospectus for exchange
privilege limitations. The exchange privilege may be modified, suspended or
terminated by a Fund.

7. BANK DIRECT DEPOSIT

With Bank Direct Deposit, you can make automatic contributions for as little as
$50 from your checking account into your Kemper IRA. There is no service
charge, no checks to write and it's a great way to invest for the future.

                                                                 EXHIBIT 99.B18


                       KEMPER MUTUAL FUNDS
                  MULTI-DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM PLAN

     WHEREAS, each investment company adopting this Multi-
Distribution System Plan (each a "Fund" and collectively the
"Funds") is an open-end management investment company registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act");

     WHEREAS, Zurich Kemper Investments, Inc. and/or Dreman Value
Advisors, Inc. serves as investment adviser and Kemper
Distributors, Inc. serves as principal underwriter for each Fund;

     WHEREAS, each Fund has a non-Rule 12b-1 administrative
services agreement providing for a service fee at an annual rate
of up to .25% of average daily net assets;

     WHEREAS, each Fund has established a Multi-Distribution
System enabling each Fund, as more fully reflected in its
prospectus, to offer investors the option of purchasing shares
(a) with a front-end sales load (which may vary among Funds) and
a service fee ("Class A shares"); (b) without a front-end sales
load, but subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge ("CDSC")
(which may vary among Funds), a Rule 12b-1 plan providing for a
distribution fee, and a service fee ("Class B shares");
(c) without a front-end sales load, but subject to a CDSC
(applicable to shares purchased on or after April 1, 1996 and
which may vary among Funds), a Rule 12b-1 Plan providing for a
distribution fee, and a service fee ("Class C shares"); and
(d) for certain Funds, without a front-end load, a CDSC, a
distribution fee or a service fee ("Class I shares"); and
     WHEREAS, Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act permits open-end
management investment companies to issue multiple classes of
voting stock representing interests in the same portfolio
notwithstanding Sections 18(f)(1) and 18(i) under the 1940 Act
if, among other things, such investment companies adopt a written
plan setting forth the separate arrangement and expense
allocation of each class and any related conversion features or
exchange privileges;

     NOW, THEREFORE, each Fund, wishing to be governed by Rule
18f-3 under the 1940 Act, hereby adopts this Multi-Distribution
System Plan as follows:

     1.   Each class of shares will represent interests in the
same portfolio of investments of the Fund (or series), and be
identical in all respects to each other class, except as set
forth below.  The only differences among the various classes of
shares of the Fund (or series) will relate solely to:
(a) different distribution fee payments associated with any Rule



<PAGE>   2

12b-1 Plan for a particular class of shares and any other costs
relating to implementing or amending such Rule 12b-1 Plan
(including obtaining shareholder approval of such Rule 12b-1 Plan
or any amendment thereto), which will be borne solely by
shareholders of such classes; (b) different service fees;
(c) different shareholder servicing fees; (d) different class
expenses, which will be limited to the following expenses
determined by the Fund board to be attributable to a specific
class of shares:  (i) printing and postage expenses related to
preparing and distributing materials such as shareholder reports,
prospectuses, and proxy statements to current shareholders of a
specific class; (ii) Securities and Exchange Commission
registration fees incurred by a specific class; (iii) litigation
or other legal expenses relating to a specific class; (iv) board
member fees or expenses incurred as a result of issues relating
to a specific class; and (v) accounting expenses relating to a
specific class; (e) the voting rights related to any Rule 12b-1
Plan affecting a specific class of shares; (f) conversion
features; (g) exchange privileges; and (h) class names or
designations.  Any additional incremental expenses not
specifically identified above that are subsequently identified
and determined to be properly applied to one class of shares of
the Fund (or a series) shall be so applied upon approval by a
majority of the members of the Fund's board, including a majority
of the board members who are not interested persons of the Fund.

     2.   Under the Multi-Distribution System, certain expenses
may be attributable to the Fund, but not to a particular series
or class thereof.  All such expenses will be borne by each class
on the basis of the relative aggregate net assets of the classes,
except that, if the Fund has series, expenses will first be
allocated among series, based upon their relative aggregate net
assets.  Expenses that are attributable to a particular series,
but not to a particular class thereof, will be borne by each
class of that series on the basis of the relative aggregate net
assets of the classes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
underwriter, the investment manager or other provider of services
to the Fund may waive or reimburse the expenses of a specific
class or classes to the extent permitted under Rule 18f-3 under
the 1940 Act.

     A class of shares may be permitted to bear expenses that are
directly attributable to that class including: (a) any
distribution fees associated with any Rule 12b-1 Plan for a
particular class and any other costs relating to implementing or
amending such Rule 12b-1 Plan (including obtaining shareholder
approval of such Rule 12b-1 Plan or any amendment thereto); (b)
any service fees attributable to such class; (c) any shareholder
servicing fees attributable to such class; and (d) any class
expenses determined by the Fund board to be attributable to such
class.

                            2

     3.   After a shareholder's Class B shares have been
outstanding for six years, they will automatically convert to
Class A shares of the Fund (or series) at the relative net asset
values of the two classes and will thereafter not be subject to a
Rule 12b-1 Plan; provided, however, that any Class B Shares
issued in exchange for shares originally classified as Initial
Shares of Kemper Portfolios, formerly known as Kemper Investment
Portfolios (KP), whether in connection with a reorganization with
a series of KP or otherwise, shall convert to Class A shares
seven years after issuance of such Initial Shares if such Initial
Shares were issued prior to February 1, 1991.  Class B shares
issued upon reinvestment of income and capital gain dividends and
other distributions will be converted to Class A shares on a pro
rata basis with the Class B shares.

     4.   Any conversion of shares of one class to shares of
another class is subject to the continuing availability of a
ruling of the Internal Revenue Service or an opinion of counsel
to the effect that the conversion of shares does not constitute a
taxable event under federal income tax law.  Any such conversion
may be suspended if such a ruling or opinion is no longer
available.

     5.   To the extent exchanges are permitted, shares of any
class of the Fund will be exchangeable with shares of the same
class of another Fund, or with money market fund shares as
described in the applicable prospectus.  Exchanges will comply
with all applicable provisions of Rule 11a-3 under the 1940 Act.
For purposes of calculating the time period remaining on the
conversion of Class B shares to Class A shares, Class B shares
received on exchange retain their original purchase date.

     6.   Dividends paid by the Fund (or series) as to each class
of its shares, to the extent any dividends are paid, will be
calculated in the same manner, at the same time, on the same day,
and will be in the same amount; except that any distribution
fees, service fees, shareholder servicing fees and class expenses
allocated to a class will be borne exclusively by that class.

     7.   Any distribution arrangement of the Fund, including
distribution fees, front-end sales loads and CDSCs, will comply
with Article III, Section 26, of the Rules of Fair Practice of
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.

     8.   All material amendments to this Plan must be approved
by a majority of the members of the Fund's board, including a
majority of the board members who are not interested persons of
the Fund.

     Any open-end investment company may establish a Multi-
Distribution System and adopt this Multi-Distribution System Plan
by approval of a majority of the members of any such company's

                                3

governing board, including a majority of the board members who
are not interested persons of such company.

For use on or after:  April 1, 1996
