Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

1.  Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company ("KILICO") is incorporated under 
    the insurance laws of the State of Illinois.  KILICO is licensed in the 
    District of Columbia and all states, except New York. KILICO is a wholly-
    owned subsidiary of Kemper Corporation ("Kemper"), a nonoperating holding 
    company.

    On January 4, 1996, an investor group comprised of Zurich Insurance 
    Company ("Zurich"), and Insurance Partners, L.P. ("Insurance Partners") 
    acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Kemper.  As a 
    result of the change in control, Zurich and Insurance Partners owned 80 
    percent and 20 percent, respectively, of Kemper and therefore KILICO. On 
    February 27, 1998, Zurich acquired Insurance Partner's remaining 20 
    percent interest for cash.  As a result of this transaction, Kemper and 
    KILICO became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Zurich.

    Effective September 7, 1998, the businesses of Zurich merged with the 
    financial services business of B.A.T. Industries forming Zurich Financial 
    Services ("ZFS").  ZFS is owned by Zurich Allied AG and Allied Zurich 
    p.l.c., fifty-seven percent and forty-three percent, respectively.  Zurich
    Allied AG representing the financial interest of the former Zurich Group, 
    is listed on the Swiss Market Index, replacing Zurich.  Allied Zurich 
    p.l.c., representing the financial interest of B.A.T. Industries, is 
    included in the FTSE-100 Share Index in London.  As a result of this 
    transaction, Kemper and KILICO are also owned by Zurich Allied AG and 
    Allied Zurich p.l.c., fifty-seven percent and forty-three percent, 
    respectively.

    The acquisition of Kemper on January 4, 1996 was accounted for using the 
    purchase method of accounting.  Under the purchase method of accounting, 
    KILICO's assets and liabilities have been marked to their relative fair 
    values as of the acquisition date.  The difference between the cost of 
    acquiring KILICO and the net fair values of KILICO's assets and 
    liabilities as of the acquisition date has been recorded as goodwill.  
    KILICO began to amortize goodwill during 1996 on a straight-line basis 
    over twenty-five years.  In December of 1997, KILICO changed its 
    amortization period to twenty years in order to conform to Zurich's 
    accounting practices and policies. 

    Deferred insurance acquisition costs, and the related amortization 
    thereof, for policies sold prior to January 4, 1996 have been replaced by 
    the value of business acquired.  

    The value of business acquired reflects the estimated fair value of 
    KILICO's life insurance business in force and represents the portion of 
    the cost to acquire KILICO that is allocated to the value of the right to 
    receive future cash flows from insurance contracts existing at the date of
    acquisition.  Such value is the present value of the actuarially 
    determined projected cash flows for the acquired policies.

                                   8

<PAGE>

    The value of the business acquired is amortized over the estimated
    contract life of the business acquired in relation to the present value
    of estimated gross profits using current assumptions based on an interest
    rate equal to the liability or contract rate on the value of business
    acquired.  The estimated amortization and accretion of interest for the
    value of business acquired for each of the years through December 31, 2003
    are as follows:

</TABLE>

    The projected ending balance of the value of business acquired will be
    further adjusted to reflect the impact of unrealized gains or losses on
    fixed maturities held as available for sale in the investment portfolio.
    Such adjustments are not recorded in KILICO's net income but rather are
    recorded as a credit or charge to accumulated other comprehensive income,
    net of income tax. As of September 30, 1998, the accumulated affects of
    this adjustment increased the value of business acquired and accumulated
    other comprehensive income by approximately $15.0 million and $9.8
    million, respectively.
 
2. 	In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments consisting of
    normal	recurring accruals have been made for a fair statement of the
   	results of KILICO for the periods included in these financial statements.
   	These financial	statements should be read in conjunction with the	financial
    statements and related notes in the 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A No. 1.

3.	 In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
    Statement of	Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, Reporting
    Comprehensive Income. SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and
    display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses,
    gains and losses). This statement requires that all items required to be
    reported be displayed with the same prominence as other financial
    statements. KILICO adopted SFAS No. 130 on January 1, 1998 and accordingly
    restated 1997 results for comparative purposes. The impact of implementation
    did not affect KILICO's reported net income before reporting other
    comprehensive income. Other comprehensive	income, however, by design, could
    be materially different from reported net income, as changes in unrealized
    appreciation and depreciation of investments for example are now included
    as a component of reported comprehensive income.

4.	 During December 1997, KILICO entered into a funds held reinsurance
    agreement with a Zurich affiliated company, EPICENTRE Reinsurance (Bermuda)
    Limited ("EPICENTRE"). Under the terms of this agreement, KILICO ceded, on
    a yearly renewable term basis, ninety percent of the net amount at risk
    (death benefit payable to the insured less the insured's separate account
    cash surrender value) related to a non-registered variable bank-owned life
    insurance contract ("BOLI"), which is held in KILICO's separate accounts.
    During the first nine months of 1998, KILICO ceded to EPICENTRE
    approximately $116.5 million of separate account fees (cost of insurance
    charges) paid to KILICO by these policyholders for the life insurance
    coverage provided under the terms of each separate account contract.
    KILICO has also withheld approximately $120.8 million of such funds due to
    EPICENTRE under the terms of the reinsurance agreement as a component of
    benefits and funds payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet
    as of September 30, 1998. KILICO remains primarily liable to its
    policyholders for these amounts.

                                   9

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

KILICO recorded net income of $38.1 million in the first nine months of 1998, 
compared with net income of $27.3 million in the first nine months of 1997.
The increase in net income in the first nine months of 1998, compared with the
first nine months of 1997, was primarily related to an increase in realized
capital gains, partially offset by a slight decrease in operating earnings
before amortization of goodwill and an increase in goodwill amortization.

The following table reflects the components of net income:

</TABLE>

The real estate-related gains in both 1998 and 1997 continue to reflect
KILICO's strategy to reduce its exposure to real estate-related investments,
as well as improving real estate market conditions in most areas of the
country.  Fixed maturity write-downs in 1998 and 1997 primarily reflect
other-than-temporary declines in value of certain U.S. dollar denominated
fixed maturity investments which have significant exposure to countries in
Southeast Asia.  Other realized investment gains and losses for 1998 and 1997
relate primarily to the sale of fixed maturity investments.

Operating earnings before amortization of goodwill decreased to $30.5 million
in the first nine months of 1998, compared with $31.0 million in the first
nine months of 1997. This decrease was primarily attributable to increases
in claims and nondeferrable operating expenses, partially offset by increases
in fees and other income and spread revenue (investment income earned, less
interest credited incurred).

                                   10

<PAGE>

Spread revenue improved during 1998, due to a net decrease in interest
credited.  Interest credited declined during 1998 due to crediting rate
reductions and a decrease in the liability for future policy benefits.
Investment income declined due to a decrease in invested assets.  Invested
assets and the liability for future policy benefits both declined due to
surrenders and withdrawals during 1997 and 1998.  Investment income in 1998,
compared with 1997, was positively impacted by a $45.0 million capital
contribution received by KILICO in December 1997.

</TABLE>

Sales of annuity products consist of total deposits received. Sales of variable 
annuities increase administrative fees earned, and they pose minimal investment 
risk for KILICO, as policyholders invest in one or more of several underlying 
investment funds which invest in stocks and bonds.  

General account fixed annuity sales increased $15.9 million in the first nine 
months of 1998, compared with the first nine months of 1997, while separate 
account variable annuity sales increased $31.9 million in the first nine months
of 1998, compared with the first nine months of 1997.  Separate account annuity
sales increased during the first nine months of 1998, compared with 1997, as
a result of the introduction of new variable annuity products in certain
markets during the third quarter of 1998, offset by the negative impact of
certain tax proposals on KILICO's sales in certain markets during 1998.  Fixed
annuity sales increased during the first nine months of 1998, compared with
1997, primarily due to third quarter sales as certain investors opted for fixed
crediting rates rather than other investment alternatives available during a
period of market uncertainty.

During late 1996, KILICO introduced a registered flexible individual variable
life insurance product and in mid 1997 KILICO began to introduce several
non-registered variable universal life insurance contracts, a variable
individual and group bank-owned life insurance contract ("BOLI") and a series
of variable individual universal life insurance contracts.  Sales of these
separate account variable products, like variable annuities, pose minimal
investment risk for KILICO as policyholders also invest in one or more
underlying investment funds which invest in stocks and bonds. KILICO receives
premium tax and DAC tax expense loads from certain contract holders, as well
as administrative fees and cost of insurance charges which compensate KILICO
for providing life insurance coverage to the contractholders in excess of their
cash surrender values.  The face amount of variable universal life insurance
business in force, before reinsurance, amounted to $61.3 billion at September
30, 1998, compared with $59.6 billion at December 31, 1997 and $2.0 billion at
September 30, 1997. 

KILICO also sells low-cost term life insurance products offering initial level 
premiums for 5, 10, 15, 20, and 30 years in order to balance its product mix
and asset-liability structure.  In December 1996, KILICO assumed $14.4 billion
(face amount) of term life insurance premiums from Federal Kemper Life
Assurance Company ("FKLA"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kemper.  Through the
first nine months of 1998 and 1997, KILICO assumed premiums of $15.7 million
and $12.5 million, respectively, and $13.4 million and $13.1 million of claims,
respectively, under the terms of the reinsurance agreement with FKLA. 

Excluding the amounts assumed from FKLA, KILICO's total term life sales,
including new and renewal premiums, amounted to $668 thousand in the first nine
months of 1998, compared with $523 thousand in the first nine months of 1997.

Reflecting the current interest rate environment and other competitive 
market factors, KILICO adjusts its crediting rates on interest-sensitive 
products over time in order to manage spread revenue and policyholder 
surrender and withdrawal activity.  KILICO can also improve spread revenue 
over time by increasing investment income.

General account surrenders, withdrawals and death benefits increased $.6 
million in the first nine months of 1998, compared with the first nine 
months of 1997, reflecting an increase in claims offset by a decrease in 
overall surrenders and withdrawals.  KILICO expects that the level of 
surrender and withdrawal activity experienced in the first nine months of 
1998 should remain at a similar level throughout 1998 given current 
projections for relatively stable interest rates and cautious optimism 
regarding the stock market.

Claims and other policyholder benefits increased $14.9 million in the 
first nine months of 1998, compared with 1997, primarily due to BOLI-
related claims and benefits.

Taxes, licenses and fees increased $7.2 million during the first nine 
months of 1998, compared with 1997, primarily reflecting premium taxes on 
BOLI. KILICO received a corresponding expense load related to these 
premium taxes in separate account fees and other charges during the first 
nine months of 1998.

                                   13

Commissions and the deferral of insurance acquisition costs increased 
reflecting the overall increase in new business during 1998, compared with 
1997.

Operating expenses increased $6.8 million in the first nine months of 
1998, compared with first nine months of 1997, due to increases in head 
count in the sales and underwriting departments, an increase in data 
processing expenses related to ongoing projects, new product development 
and year 2000 compliance costs.

The difference between the cost of acquiring KILICO and the net fair value 
of KILICO's assets and liabilities as of January 4, 1996 was recorded as 
goodwill. As previously mentioned, KILICO changed its amortization period 
in December of 1997, from 25 years to 20 years, in order to conform to 
Zurich's accounting practices and policies.  As a result of the change in 
amortization periods, KILICO recorded an increase in amortization expense 
of $1.9 million in the first nine months of 1998, compared with 1997.

INVESTMENTS

KILICO's principal investment strategy is to maintain a balanced, 
well-diversified portfolio supporting the insurance contracts written.  
KILICO makes shifts in its investment portfolio depending on, among 
other factors, its evaluation of risk and return in various markets, 
consistency with KILICO's business strategy and investment guidelines 
approved by the board of directors, the interest rate environment, 
liability durations and changes in market and business conditions.

Fixed maturities

KILICO is carrying its fixed maturity investment portfolio, which it 
considers available for sale, at estimated fair value, with the aggregate 
unrealized appreciation or depreciation being recorded as a component of 
accumulated other comprehensive income, net of any applicable income tax 
expense.  The aggregate unrealized appreciation on fixed maturities at 
September 30, 1998 was $100.2 million, compared with $24.6 million at 
December 31, 1997.  Fair values are sensitive to movements in interest 
rates and other economic developments and can be expected to fluctuate, at 
times significantly, from period to period. 

At September 30, 1998, investment-grade fixed maturities and cash and 
short-term investments accounted for 85.2 percent of KILICO's invested 
assets and cash, compared with 87.4 percent at December 31, 1997.

Approximately 28.1 percent of KILICO's investment-grade fixed maturities at 
September 30, 1998 were mortgage-backed securities, down from 35.1 percent 
at December 31, 1997, due to sales and paydowns during 1998. These 
investments consist primarily of marketable mortgage pass-through 
securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association, the 
Federal National Mortgage Association or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage 
Corporation and other investment-grade securities collateralized by 
mortgage pass-through securities issued by these entities.  KILICO has not 
made any investments in interest-only or other similarly volatile tranches 
of mortgage-backed securities.  KILICO's mortgage-backed investments are 
generally of AAA credit quality, and the markets for these investments have 

                                   15

<PAGE>

been and are expected to remain liquid.  KILICO plans to continue to reduce 
its holding of such investments over time.

Approximately 13.7 percent of KILICO's investment-grade fixed maturities at 
September 30, 1998 consisted of corporate asset-backed securities, compared 
with 10.8 percent at December 31, 1997.  The majority of KILICO's 
investments in asset-backed securities were backed by manufactured housing 
loans, auto loans and home equity loans.

Future investment income from mortgage-backed securities and other asset-
backed securities may be affected by the timing of principal payments and 
the yields on reinvestment alternatives available at the time of such 
payments. As a result of purchase accounting adjustments to fixed 
maturities, most of KILICO's mortgage-backed securities are carried at a 
premium over par.  Prepayment activity resulting from a decline in interest 
rates on such securities purchased at a premium would accelerate the 
amortization of the premiums which would result in reductions of investment 
income related to such securities.  At September 30, 1998, KILICO had 
unamortized premiums and discounts of $15.7 million and $4.7 million, 
respectively, related to mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities.  
Reductions to investment income related to the amortization of premiums and 
discounts amounted to $12.9 million during the first nine months of 1998, 
compared with $13.6 million in the first nine months of 1997.  KILICO 
believes that as a result of the purchase accounting adjustments and the 
current interest rate environment, anticipated prepayment activity is 
expected to result in further reductions to future investment income for 
the remainder of 1998.

Real estate-related investments

The $190.3 million real estate portfolio held by KILICO, consisting of 
joint venture and third-party mortgage loans and other real estate-related 
investments, constituted 4.3 percent of cash and invested assets at 
September 30, 1998, compared with $220.0 million, or 4.9 percent, at 
December 31, 1997.
 	
As reflected in the "Real estate portfolio" table on the following page, 
KILICO has continued to fund both existing projects and legal commitments. 
The future legal commitments declined to $64.4 million at September 30, 
1998, compared with $75.3 million at December 31, 1997, primarily due to 
sales.  As of September 30, 1998, KILICO expects to fund approximately $6.1 
million of these legal commitments, along with providing capital to 
existing projects. The disparity between total legal commitments and the 
amount expected to be funded relates principally to standby financing 
arrangements that provide credit enhancements to certain tax-exempt bonds, 
which KILICO does not presently expect to fund.  The total legal 
commitments, along with estimated working capital requirements, are 
considered in KILICO's evaluation of reserves and write-downs. 

Excluding the $1.1 million of real estate owned and $18.5 million of net equity 
investments in joint ventures, KILICO's real estate loans totaled $170.7
million at September 30, 1998, after reserves and writedowns. Of this amount,
$138.3 million are on accrual status with a weighted average interest rate of 
approximately 9.2 percent.  Of these accrual loans, 8.9 percent have terms 
requiring current periodic payments of their full contractual interest, 44.8 
percent require only partial payments or payments to the extent of cash flow of 
the borrowers, and 46.3 percent defer all interest to maturity.

Undeveloped land represented approximately 35.1 percent of KILICO's real estate 
portfolio at September 30, 1998. To maximize the value of certain land and
other projects, additional development has been proceeding or has been planned.
Such development of existing projects would continue to require funding,
either from KILICO or third parties.  In the present real estate markets,
third-party financing can require credit enhancing arrangements (e.g.,
standby financing arrangements and loan commitments) from KILICO. The values
of development projects are dependent on a number of factors, including Kemper's
and KILICO's plans with respect thereto, obtaining necessary construction and
zoning permits and market demand for the permitted use of the property. There
can be no assurance that such permits will be obtained as planned or at all,
nor that such expenditures will occur as scheduled, nor that Kemper's and
KILICO's plans with respect to such projects may not change substantially.

                                   17

<PAGE>

Approximately half of KILICO's real estate loans are on properties or projects 
where KILICO, Kemper, or their affiliates have taken ownership positions in 
joint ventures with a small number of partners.

At September 30, 1998, loans to and investments in joint ventures in which 
Patrick M. Nesbitt or his affiliates ("Nesbitt"), a third-party real estate 
developer, have ownership interests constituted approximately $64.1 million, or 
33.7 percent, of KILICO's real estate portfolio.  The Nesbitt ventures consist 
of nine hotel properties and two office buildings.  At September 30, 1998, 
KILICO did not have any Nesbitt-related off-balance sheet legal funding 
commitments outstanding.

At September 30, 1998, loans to and investment in a master limited partnership 
(the "MLP") between subsidiaries of Kemper and subsidiaries of Lumbermens
Mutual Casualty Company, a former affiliate, constituted approximately $68.1
million, or 35.8 percent, of KILICO's real estate portfolio. Kemper's interest
is 75 percent as of September 30, 1998.  At September 30, 1998, MLP-related 
commitments accounted for approximately $6.1 million of KILICO's off-balance 
sheet legal commitments, which KILICO expects to fund.

At September 30, 1998, KILICO no longer had any outstanding loans or
investments in projects with the Prime Group, Inc. or its affiliates, as all
such investments have been sold or written down to zero.  However, KILICO
continues to have Prime Group-related commitments, which accounted for $25.7
million of the off-balance-sheet legal commitments at September 30, 1998.
KILICO does not expect to fund any of these commitments.

The remaining significant real estate-related investment amounted to $27.9 
million at September 30, 1998 and consisted of various zoned and unzoned 
residential and commercial lots located in Hawaii. Due to certain negative 
zoning restriction developments in January 1997 and a continuing economic slump 
in Hawaii, KILICO has placed these real estate-related investments on
nonaccural status.  KILICO is currently pursuing the zoning of all remaining
unzoned properties, as well as pursuing steps to sell all remaining zoned
properties.  However, due to the state of the Hawaiian economy, which has
lagged behind the economic expansion of most of the rest of the United States,
KILICO anticipates that it could be several additional years until all of
KILICO's investments in Hawaii are completely disposed of.

</TABLE>

KILICO evaluates its real estate-related investments (including accrued 
interest) using an estimate of each investment's observable market price, 
net of estimated costs to sell.  Because KILICO's real estate review 
process includes estimates, there can be no assurance that current 
estimates will prove accurate over time due to changing economic 
conditions and other factors. KILICO's real estate-related investments are 
expected to continue to decline further through future sales. KILICO's net 
income could be materially reduced in future periods if real estate market 
conditions worsen in areas where KILICO's portfolio is located or if 
Kemper's and KILICO's plans with respect to certain projects change or if 
necessary construction or zoning permits are not obtained.

Realized investment results

Reflected in net income are after-tax net realized investment gains of 
$17.2 million for the first nine months of 1998, compared with $3.9 million for 
the first nine months of 1997.

Unrealized gains and losses on fixed maturity investments are not reflected in 
KILICO's net income.  These changes in unrealized value are included within 
accumulated other comprehensive income, net of any applicable income taxes, in 
accordance with SFAS No. 130, as previously discussed. If and to the extent a 
fixed maturity investment suffers an other-than-temporary decline in value, 
however, such security is written down to net realizable value, and the 
write-down adversely impacts net income.

KILICO regularly monitors its investment portfolio and as part of this process 
reviews its assets for possible impairments of carrying value.  Because the 
review process includes estimates, there can be no assurance that current 
estimates will prove accurate over time due to changing economic conditions and 
other factors.

A valuation allowance has been established, and is evaluated as of each
reported period end, to reduce the deferred tax asset for investment losses
to the amount that, based upon available evidence, is in management's judgment
more likely than not to be realized.  

                                   19

<PAGE>

Interest rates

Interest rates have declined in the first nine months of 1998, contributing to 
an increase in unrealized fixed maturity investment gains. Interest rate 
fluctuations can cause significant fluctuations in both future investment
income and future realized and unrealized investment gains and losses. Also,
lower renewal crediting rates on annuities, compared with competitors' higher
new money crediting rates, have also influenced certain annuity holders to seek
alternative products. KILICO mitigates this risk somewhat by charging surrender 
fees which decrease over time when annuity holders withdraw funds prior to 
maturity on certain annuity products.  However, approximately 48 percent of 
KILICO's fixed and variable annuity liabilities as of September 30, 1998 were
no longer subject to significant surrender fees.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

KILICO carefully monitors cash and short-term investments to maintain adequate 
balances for timely payment of policyholder benefits, expenses, taxes and 
policyholder's account balances.  In addition, regulatory authorities establish 
minimum liquidity and capital standards. The major ongoing sources of KILICO's 
liquidity are deposits for fixed annuities, investment income, premium income, 
separate account fees, other operating revenue and cash provided from maturing 
or sold investments.  (See the "Policyholder surrenders and withdrawals" table 
and related discussion and "INVESTMENTS" above.)

The decrease in the net cash flow provided by operating activities between the 
first nine months of 1998, compared with the first nine months of 1997, 
primarily relates to an increase in Federal income tax payments related to BOLI 
sales in 1997.  KILICO received a corresponding expense load on these sales in 
the fourth quarter of 1997.  The increase in the Federal tax payments for the 
nine months ended September 30, 1998 is somewhat offset by BOLI expense loads 
received on 1998 BOLI sales.

Ratings

Ratings are an important factor in establishing the competitive position of
life insurance companies.  Rating organizations continue to review the
financial performance and condition of life insurers and their investment
portfolios, including those of KILICO. Any reductions in KILICO's
claims-paying ability or financial strength ratings could result in its
products being less attractive to consumers.  Any reductions in KILICO's
parent's ratings could also adversely impact KILICO's financial flexibility.

Ratings reductions for Kemper or its subsidiaries and other financial events
can also trigger obligations to fund certain real estate-related commitments to
take out other lenders.  In such event, those lenders can be expected to
renegotiate their loan terms, although they are not contractually obligated to
do so.

Each rating is subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning 
organization and should be evaluated independently of any other rating.  

Year 2000 Compliance

Many existing computer programs were originally designed without considering
the impact of the year 2000 and currently use only two digits to identify the
year in the date field.  This issue affects nearly all companies and
organizations and could cause computer applications and systems to fail or
create erroneous results to occur for any transaction with a date of January
1, 2000, or later.

Many companies must undertake major projects to address the year 2000 issue and 
each company's costs and uncertainties will depend on a number of factors, 
including its software and hardware, and the nature of the industry.  Companies 
must also coordinate with other entities with which they electronically 
interact, including suppliers, customers, creditors and other financial
services institutions.

If a company does not successfully address its year 2000 issues, it could face 

                                   20

<PAGE>

material adverse consequences in the form of lawsuits against the company, lost 
business, erroneous results and substantial operating problems after January 1, 
2000.

KILICO has taken substantial steps over the last several years to ensure that
its systems will be compliant for the year 2000. Such steps have included the 
replacement of older systems with new systems which are already compliant. In 
1996, KILICO replaced its investment accounting system and in 1997 KILICO 
replaced its general ledger and accounts payable system. KILICO has also
ensured that new systems developed to support new product introductions in
1996 and 1997 are already year 2000 compliant. Data processing expenses
related solely to bringing KILICO's systems in compliance with the year 2000
amounted to $88 thousand in 1997 and approximately $730 thousand through
October 31, 1998. KILICO anticipates it will cost an additional $750 thousand
to bring all remaining systems into compliance with $250 thousand expected to
be incurred in the fourth quarter of 1998.

KILICO's policy administration systems have been completely renovated to be
Year 2000 compliant and are currently running in a test environment.  It is 
anticipated that 50 percent of KILICO's ancillary systems confirmed to be Year 
2000 compliant will be in production at December 31, 1998 and that all of 
KILICO's systems will be in production at April 30, 1999 or sooner. Testing 
procedures have confirmed the performance, functionality, and integration of 
converted or replaced platforms, applications, databases, utilities, and 
interfaces in an operational environment. KILICO's testing and verification for 
year 2000 compliance has encompassed mainframe computing systems, mainframe 
hardware and systems software, PC/LAN computing systems, PC/LAN hardware and 
systems software, end-user computing systems, interfaces to and from third 
parties and other miscellaneous electronic non-information systems.

KILICO has also undertaken steps which require that all entities with which 
KILICO electronically interacts, including suppliers and other financial
services institutions, attest in writing to KILICO that their systems are
year 2000 compliant.

If KILICO does not successfully address its year 2000 issues it could face 
material adverse consequences in the form of lawsuits, lost business, erroneous 
results and substantial operating problems after January 1, 2000. Although
KILICO fully expects to be year 2000 compliant by the close of 1999, KILICO
is currently developing contingency plans to handle the most reasonably
likely worst case scenarios.
