MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
KILICO recorded net income of $23.7 million in the first six months of
1999, compared with net income of $25.1 million in the first six months of
1998. The decrease in net income in the first six months of 1999, compared
with the first six months of 1998, was primarily related to a net realized
capital loss during 1999, significantly offset by an increase in operating
earnings.
The following table reflects the components of net income:

</TABLE>
Operating earnings before amortization of goodwill increased to $32.0
million in the first six months of 1999, compared with $20.1 million in
the first six months of 1998. This increase was primarily due to:
- an increase in spread revenue (net investment income less interest
credited to policyholders)
- an increase in separate account fees and charges
- a decrease in claims incurred and other policyholder benefits
- an increase in the deferral of insurance acquisition costs,
- a decrease in the amortization of value of business acquired, offset by
- an increase in taxes, licenses and fees and commissions, and
- an increase in amortization of insurance acquisition costs

</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 $86.7 million in the first
six months of 1999, compared with the first six months of 1998, while
separate account variable annuity sales increased $86.8 million in the
first six months of 1999, compared with the first six months of 1998.
The increase in general account and separate account annuity sales was
primarily due to the introduction of a new variable annuity product with
both a variable and a fixed option in the second half of 1998.
The increase in BOLI sales in 1999 was primarily due to the nature of
the BOLI product - high dollar volume per sale, low frequency of sales.

commissions were paid on BOLI.

Separate account fees on non-BOLI variable life and annuities increased
during the first half of 1999, compared with 1998, primarily due to new sales
during 1998 and 1999.
BOLI cost of insurance changes and fees decreased in the first half of 1999,
compared with 1998, reflecting the increase in the percentage
ceded to ZC Life in 1998 from 90 percent to 100 percent.
BOLI premium tax expense loads increased in 1999, compared with 1998,
due to the increase in BOLI sales in 1999.

Reflecting the current interest rate environment and other competitive
market factors, KILICO adjusts its crediting rates on interestsensitive
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 decreased
$82.1 million in the first half of 1999, compared with the first half
of 1998, reflecting a decrease in death benefits as well as a decrease
in overall surrenders and withdrawals.
Separate account surrenders, withdrawals and death benefits increased
$95.1 million in the first half of 1999, compared with the first half
of 1998. Contributing to this increase is a partial withdrawal on a
BOLI contract of $39.8 million during the first half of 1999.
11
<PAGE>
Claims and other policyholder benefits decreased $16.7 million in the
first half of 1999, compared with 1998, primarily due to a decrease in
BOLI-related claims and benefits reflecting the 1998 amendment to the
BOLI reinsurance agreement with ZC Life. Claims assumed from FKLA also
decreased $2.7 million during the first half of 1999, compared with
1998.
Taxes, licenses and fees increased during the first half of 1999,
compared with 1998, 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 half of 1999.
Commissions expense and the deferral of insurance acquisition costs
increased in the first half of 1999, compared with the first half of
1998, due to the higher level of sales, excluding BOLI.
The amortization of the value of business acquired decreased during the
first half of 1999, compared with 1998, due to lower realized capital
gains on pre-purchase investments which caused less accelerated
amortization of the value of business acquired during the first half of
1999, compared with 1998.
Spread revenue increased in the first half of 1999, compared with the
first half of 1998, due to a lesser decrease in investment income than
in interest credited. Investment income decreased in 1999, compared
with 1998, due to a decrease in cash and invested assets from the 1998
levels, reflecting the surrender and withdrawal activity in 1999 and
1998, the dividends paid to Kemper Corporation in December 1998, and
the reinvestment of 1998 sales proceeds and CMO prepayments at lower
yields due to the low interest rate environment in 1998. Net
investment income was also negatively impacted by the placement of a
real estate-related investment on non-accrual status effective January
1, 1999. The decrease in interest credited was primarily due to a
decrease in policyholder liabilities due to surrender and withdrawal
activity in 1999 and 1998, and a decrease in crediting rates during
1999 and 1998.

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.

</TABLE>
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 depreciation on fixed maturities at
June 30, 1999 was $52.3 million, compared with unrealized appreciation of
$61.3 million at December 31, 1998. KILICO does not record a net
deferred tax benefit for the aggregate unrealized depreciation on
investments. 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 June 30, 1999, investment-grade fixed maturities and cash and short-
term investments accounted for 81.7 percent of KILICO's invested assets
and cash, compared with 82.7 percent at December 31, 1998.
Approximately 21.3 percent of KILICO's investment-grade fixed maturities
at June 30, 1999 were mortgage-backed securities, down from 28.0 percent
at December 31, 1998, due to sales and paydowns during 1999. KILICO
plans to continue to reduce its holding of such investments over time.
Approximately 16.8 percent of KILICO's investment-grade fixed maturities
at June 30, 1999 consisted of corporate asset-backed securities, compared
with 15.4 percent at December 31, 1998. The majority of KILICO's
investments in asset-backed securities were backed by manufactured
housing loans, auto loans and home equity loans.

Real estate-related investments
The $157.3 million real estate portfolio held by KILICO, consisting of
joint venture and third-party mortgage loans and other real estate-
related investments, constituted 3.9 percent of cash and invested assets
at June 30, 1999, compared with $164.4 million, or 3.9
percent, at December 31, 1998.

<F1> These are real estate-related investments where KILICO, based on
known information, has serious doubts about the borrowers'
abilities to comply with present repayment terms and which KILICO
anticipates may go into nonaccrual, past due or restructured
status.
<F2> Interest more than 90 days past due but not on nonaccrual
status.
<F3> KILICO does not accrue interest on real estate-related investments
when it judges that the likelihood of collection of interest is
doubtful. Loans on nonaccrual status after reserves and write-
downs amounted to $82.4 million and $31.8 million at June 30, 1999
and December 31, 1998, respectively.
</FN>
</TABLE>
KILICO's loans to a master limited partnership (the "MLP") between
subsidiaries of Kemper and subsidiaries of Lumbermens, amounted to $55.3
million (net of reserves) at June 30, 1999. The MLP's underlying
investment primarily consists of a water development project located in
California's Sacramento River Valley. This project is currently in the
final stages of a permit process with various Federal and California
State agencies, which will determine the long-term economic viability of
the project. Due to management's desire not to increase book value of the
MLP over the 1998 levels, as interest has historically been added to
principal, the Company placed these loans on non-accrual status effective
January 1, 1999.
Net investment income
KILICO's pre-tax net investment income totaled $131.2 million in the
first six months of 1999, compared with $139.0 million in the first six
months of 1998. Included in pre-tax net investment income is KILICO's
share of operating gains and losses from equity investments in real
estate consisting of other income less depreciation, interest and other
expenses. Such operating results exclude interest expense on loans by
KILICO, which are on nonaccrual status.

KILICO's total foregone investment income before tax, on both non-performing
fixed maturity investments and nonaccrual real estate-related investments was

Foregone investment income from the nonaccrual of real estate-related
investments is net of KILICO's share of interest expense on these loans
excluded from KILICO's share of joint venture operating results. Any increase
in non-performing securities, and either worsening or stagnating real estate
conditions, would increase the expected adverse effect on KILICO's future
investment income and realized investment results.
15
<PAGE>
Interest rates
Interest rates rose in the first half of 1999, after falling in the fourth
quarter of 1998. This contributed to a significant decrease from the
aggregate unrealized fixed maturity investment gain position at December 31,
1998, to the aggregate unrealized loss position at June 30, 1999. Interest
rate fluctuations can cause significant fluctuations in both future
investment income and future realized and unrealized investment gains and
losses.
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.
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 for any transaction with a date of January 1, 2000,
or later.
Many companies must undertake major projects to address the year 2000 issue.
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 service institutions.
If a company does not successfully address its year 2000 issues, it could
face 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 1997, 1998 and beyond are already
year 2000 compliant. Data processing expenses related solely to bringing
KILICO's systems in compliance with the year 2000 amounted to $337 thousand
in the first half of 1999. KILICO anticipates that it will cost an
additional $141 thousand to bring all remaining systems into compliance.
16
<PAGE>
KILICO's policy administration systems have been completely renovated to be
year 2000 compliant, have been tested and have been placed back into
production as of June 30, 1999. All of KILICO's ancillary systems confirmed
to be year 2000 compliant were in production at June 30, 1999. 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 the following:
- 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 taken steps requiring all other entities with which KILICO
electronically interacts, including suppliers and other financial services
institutions, to 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 from 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. These contingency plans are scheduled for
completion in the third quarter of 1999.
