DEAR KEMPER PASSPORT
CONTRACT OWNER:
 
- ---------------------------------------
GENERAL ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
 
Investors enjoyed very positive performance in both the fixed income and stock
markets in 1995. The returns of most leading securities markets worldwide were
significantly higher than they were in 1994.
 
After several quarters of robust growth, the United States economy seems to be
growing at a pace that investors find comfortable, creating an excellent
environment for financial assets. Contrary to isolated reports that caused some
observers to become concerned, we believe the economy is in no jeopardy of
recession. Its health was confirmed with the news that the economy grew (as
measured by real gross domestic product [GDP]) at an annual rate of 4.2 percent
in the third quarter. This follows much lower growth in the first two quarters,
as the economy was adjusting to the Federal Reserve Board's series of interest
rate increases. The slowdown, in fact, was acknowledged by the Fed when it eased
short-term rates by a small but symbolic 25 basis points in July. Now we know
that the economy was rebounding from July through September.
 
Growth without a corresponding increase in inflation is very encouraging.
Although we are well along in the economic cycle and at a point when prices
often start hiking up, inflationary pressures have actually been reduced
somewhat.
 
The Fed reduced rates again in December and January, 1996, this time
acknowledging discussions underway to reduce the federal budget deficit. Even
with such reductions by the Fed, our forecast calls for lower growth ranging
between 2 percent to 3 percent for the next few quarters, with the momentum
likely to come from exports and nonresidential construction.
 
MARKET OUTLOOK
 
Slow growth and low inflation is the optimal combination for investors in the
fixed income markets, and we expect them to continue to perform well.
 
We believe that the opportunities for common stock investors will be
increasingly concentrated in higher quality investments. After hitting new highs
and showing considerable strength for most of the year, the stock market has
shown some vulnerability and then gone on to set records. However, it's
inevitable the current bull
market will come to an end some day. In fact, some sectors may be overextended
today.
 
As we view the new year, companies cannot necessarily count on the economy to
provide above-average earnings support. Rather, stocks that have proven
themselves with a pattern of consistent earnings are likely to attract investor
support. Specifically, sectors that produce more consistent earnings, such as
health care, consumer nondurables, selected technology and selected capital
goods can be expected to do well. Picking the right sectors to invest in will be
the key challenge for equity investors during the next few quarters.
 
International investing continues to be quite complex. After sinking to its
post-World War II low last year, the value of the U.S. dollar has gained
strength against most foreign currencies. While a stronger dollar favors the
U.S. economy because it reduces the cost of American imports and attracts
foreign capital, a strong dollar in relation to a local currency has the effect
of devaluing a foreign investment. The value of the dollar and the
attractiveness of U.S. investments to foreign investors will be key factors in
the next few months.
 
We are in the midst of a global recovery, and the same fundamentals that have
driven markets higher in the U.S. can be found in many foreign countries
currently. However, leading international economies continue to lag the U.S. For
example, Japan and Germany, whose economies typically follow U.S. growth, are
not as robust as in past cycles. Moreover, conditions in emerging market
countries underline the importance of careful research and experience in
understanding how these markets work.
 
Political leadership also has some bearing on the progress of the economy and
the state of the financial markets. In the months preceding a presidential
election year, it has been common for incumbents to attempt to stimulate growth.
Given our Republican Congress and Democratic President, however, we do not
consider this as likely this time.
 
With the rest of the country, we are closely following political initiatives to
produce a balanced federal budget. This is a political wild card, but we would
expect both the stock and fixed-income markets to react with enthusiasm if
progress can be made.
 
We would like now to direct your attention to the performance of the Subaccounts
which are investment options available through your annuity contract. Please
take a moment to review the market and performance summaries prepared by the
Kemper Investors Fund portfolio managers.

  ECONOMIC GUIDEPOSTS
 
Economic activity is a key influence on investment performance and investor
decision-making. Periods of recession or boom, inflation or deflation, credit
expansion or credit crunch have a significant impact on portfolio performance.
     The following are some significant economic guideposts and their investment
rationale that may help your investment decision-making. The 10-year Treasury
rate and the prime rate are prevailing interest rates. The other data report
year-to-year percentage changes.

The current annualized yield for Account I was 3.91% for the week ended January
31, 1996; the compounded effective yield was 3.98%. For Account II, net yields
were 4.29% and 4.38%, respectively.
 
1995 started with the Federal Reserve increasing interest rates a half
percentage point in February and ending with rates decreasing a quarter
percentage in December.
 
The market generally viewed this second move as a step in the process of
gradually moving away from restrictive monetary conditions toward a more neutral
monetary policy stance, given the economy's moderate growth pace. However, an
extended trend toward lower interest rate levels is not expected at this time.
 
We believe that there is continuing potential for long-term growth. With
long-term rates at current levels, housing and auto sales should continue to be
stimulated. These and other factors cause us to believe that the economy should
exhibit improved growth as the year progresses.
 
In the meantime, the Money Market Portfolio currently has a longer than usual
average maturity because of our outlook for stable to slightly lower rates for
the next several months.

U.S. stock and bond market strength in the third and fourth quarter of 1995
enabled the Total Return Portfolio to produce its second best year in 10 years.
 
The fixed-income portion of the Portfolio served as a "risk limiter"--investing
in bonds reduces the overall risk of the Portfolio and enables us to
aggressively manage the Portfolio's stock holdings for capital appreciation. The
Portfolio's income comes from both the stocks and bonds within the Portfolio.
 
Our confidence about the economy throughout the year prompted us to maintain
relatively longer maturities in the government bond portion of the Portfolio,
which provided superior returns. In addition, our larger commitments to favored
stocks in preferred industry sectors were instrumental in boosting the
Portfolio's participation in the 1995 technology rally.
 
As 1995 drew to a close, we reduced the Portfolio's technology exposure while
increasing its investment in interest rate-sensitive stocks. We look for modest
growth in the economy throughout 1996. For the near term, at least, we expect
U.S. markets to offer more attractive opportunities than international markets.

Corporate high yield bonds posted solid gains in 1995. Healthy corporate
earnings, slow economic growth and declining interest rates created a positive
environment for lower-rated and non-rated securities.
 
1995 was a good year. The High Yield Portfolio generated a strong total return,
which outweighed its few credit concerns. The corporate sector benefited from
favorable levels of supply and demand. Demand for the higher income offered by
high yield corporate bonds was stimulated by a decline in yields in the U.S.
Treasury and investment grade sectors.
 
At the same time, there was a decrease in new issues, which also helped high
yield prices. The Portfolio's exposure to BB-rated bonds, in particular,
contributed to performance. BB-rated bonds are the highest quality tier of high
yield bonds, and their price movement tends to be more closely correlated to
U.S. Treasuries than lower quality bonds. This was positive for the Portfolio as
the U.S. Treasury market rallied throughout most of the year.
 
Looking ahead, we anticipate continued slow economic growth, a benign rate of
inflation and the possibility of further interest rate cuts. We also anticipate
a favorable supply and demand balance. Together, these factors should be
positive for the Portfolio and the high yield market overall.

NOTE: C. Beth Cotner, portfolio manager of the Equity Portfolio, resigned in
early September to pursue other opportunities. Until a successor is named, the
Portfolio is being managed by Steven H. Reynolds, chief investment officer for
equities. In addition, the Equity Portfolio will be renamed the Growth Portfolio
as of May 1, 1996. All objectives of the Portfolio will remain unchanged.
 
The Equity Portfolio posted solid gains for the year ended December 31, 1995,
despite increasing market volatility. Concerns about the longevity of the
technology sector's bull run and the outlook for corporate earnings growth
prompted some profit taking during the fourth quarter, resulting in a series of
modest market corrections. Technology stocks were particularly hard hit at
year-end, following some disappointing earnings announcements and reports of
rising inventories in the telecommunications and semiconductor arenas.
 
Through the fourth quarter, we focused on reducing the Portfolio's exposure to
technology, health care and consumer non-durable stocks which had enjoyed strong
gains earlier in the year. In addition, we've eliminated several positions that
proved too small to make a meaningful contribution to performance. With
expectations for the economy to strengthen modestly during the first half of
1996, we deployed some of those assets into energy (Enron, Schlumberger, Union
Texas Petroleum) and communications/media (Viacom, Cox Communications, AirTouch)
sectors. Selected housing-related stocks (Armstrong, Shaw Industries, Home
Depot) were also added to the Portfolio. Following a strong increase in mortgage
loan applications in recent months, we believe these stocks may benefit from
increased activity during the coming months.
 
                                        4
<PAGE>   5
 
Going forward, our outlook remains positive. While relatively low interest rates
and low inflation should favor growth stocks, we think it's going to be a stock
picker's market in 1996. In this environment, we believe our strong research and
analytical capabilities can help to give us an edge.

The government market posted impressive gains in 1995 as slower economic growth
quelled investors' concerns about inflation. The government market experienced
bouts of market volatility during the year as investors questioned the depth of
the inventory correction, the underlying strength of the economy and the
possibility of a federal budget deficit accord. By the end of the year, the
yield on the two-year Treasury note fell below 5.25 percent and the yield on the
30-year long bond pierced 6.0 percent for the first time in two years.
 
The excellent total return performance of the Portfolio was due to our decision
to maintain a long duration and to favor U.S. Treasuries over mortgages for much
of the year. Early in the second quarter, the Portfolio's U.S. Treasury holdings
were increased and U.S. Treasuries outperformed mortgages for most of the period
as volatility and prepayment fears caused mortgages to underperform their U.S.
Treasury counterparts.
 
We anticipate continued economic growth at a non-inflationary pace, and a steady
to somewhat lower interest rate environment. If a meaningful balanced federal
budget agreement is ironed out, the potential for further interest rate declines
would be enhanced. The environment for fixed-income investments should remain
positive.

The International Portfolio had a continued commitment to the mature European
markets, eschewing the troubled Japanese and Latin American markets, for most of
1995. Specifically, peripheral countries such as Sweden, the Netherlands and
Ireland presented growth opportunities, and participation in the smaller but
attractive Ireland market complemented the Portfolio's exposure to the United
Kingdom. Industries we favored included pharmaceuticals, financial services,
communications and retail companies.
 
We made several strategic shifts as the year ended. On the expectation that the
"long-sought" recovery was finally underway in Japan, the Portfolio boosted its
investment in Japanese holdings. Confirmation that Japan's economy is turning
around should result in heightened investment. Even with December's adjustment,
the Portfolio still had significantly less exposure to Japan than the Morgan
Stanley Capital International EAFE index+++. As Japan's prospects improve, so do
the markets of Thailand and Singapore. We also increased the Portfolio's
investment in those markets. Historically, these markets have performed well
when interest rates were stable or declining in the U.S.
 
At the same time, the Portfolio backed away from its favored telecommunications
sector. Looking forward, we expect accommodative monetary policies to help
enhance the prospects of financial stocks in Europe as well as elsewhere around
the world. We look for

defensive growth companies, such as pharmaceuticals and consumer-related stocks,
to do well.

Average annual total return performance reflects surrender charges as follows:
one-year (6%) and inception date (6%). The returns represent past performance
only; the investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that unit
values, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
 
Note: As of May 1, 1996, the Small Capitalization Equity Portfolio will be
renamed the Small Cap Growth Portfolio. All objectives of the Portfolio will
remain unchanged.
 
After a year of relative underperformance, small company stocks came back to
life in the third quarter of 1995, as the market began to recognize their
improved fundamentals relative to larger companies. Some of these gains were
reversed in the fourth quarter, however, as investors became increasingly
concerned about high valuations in the technology sector and expectations of
slower corporate earnings growth.
 
Technology stocks were particularly hard hit at year-end, following some
disappointing earnings announcements and reports of rising inventories in the
telecommunications and semiconductor arenas. Despite these challenges, the
Portfolio, ended the period -- and the year -- with solid double-digit gains.
 
Through the second half of 1995, we trimmed the Portfolio's technology exposure,
along with stocks that had reached our price targets. New purchases for the
Portfolio included several health care stocks (ICU Medical, Physician Sales and
Service, Total Renal Care) and selected consumer goods companies (Pete's
Brewing, Manhattan Bagel Co.) that we believe are positioned for consistent
growth within their respective markets.
 
Looking to 1996, our outlook remains positive. Small cap stocks are still
generally in a secular growth trend, and earnings and valuations among the small
cap companies currently remain attractive relative to the large caps. Looking
ahead, it's apparent that earnings estimates are probably going to be hard to
meet, let alone beat, in the months ahead. With that in mind, we'll be focused
on classic growth companies -- those that can help to maintain consistent
earnings despite a slower economy.

  + The percent change in accumulation unit value is net of mortality and
    expense risk charges. No adjustment has been made for the annual records
    maintenance charge or surrender charges. No withdrawals are assumed.
 
 ++ In determining performance for Kemper PASSPORT, the fund expenses including
    management fees of .50% for the Money Market Portfolio, .55% for the Total
    Return Portfolio, .60% for the High Yield Portfolio, .60% for the Equity
    Portfolio, .55% for the Government Securities Portfolio, .75% for the
    International Portfolio and .65% for the Small Capitalization Equity
    Portfolio are deducted. In addition, Kemper PASSPORT assesses a daily asset
    charge, which amounts to 1.25% per annum for mortality and expense risk and
    administrative costs, and a prorated portion of the annual records
    maintenance charge of $30, which is assessed during the accumulation period
    against each owner's account at the end of each certificate year, on
    surrender of a certificate and on surrender upon annuitization.
 
 +++EAFE Index (Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe,
    Austral-Asia, Far East Index) is an unmanaged index that is a generally
    accepted benchmark for major overseas markets. Investors may not make
    direct investments in any of these indices.
 
    A $1,000 payment is used to calculate average annual total return. Average
    annual total return measures the change in the value of an investment in the
    Subaccount. Average annual total return reflects annualized change, and
    figures are net of all fees and charges including early withdrawal and
    surrender charges as follows: Money Market, Total Return, Equity, Government
    Securities, High Yield and International Subaccounts one year (6%) and
    lifetime (5%); and Small Capitalization Equity Subaccount one year (6%) and
    lifetime (6%).
 
    The Money Market Subaccount's current annualized yield is the seven-day
    annualized net investment income per share as of date specified. Gains or
    losses are not included. The effective yield reflects compounding of income.
    There can be no assurance that the Money Market Portfolio will be able to
    maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share. The Money Market
    Portfolio is not insured or guaranteed by the U.S. Government.
 
    The returns are based upon historical results and are not representative of
    future results. Factors affecting performance include portfolio management;
    general market, economic and fiscal conditions; and operating expenses.
    Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that unit values,
    when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. With
    respect to the High Yield Portfolio, investment in lower-rated and non-rated
    securities present greater risk of loss to principal and interest than
    higher-rated securities. With respect to the International Portfolio, there
    are special risk considerations associated with investing in non-U.S.
    companies, including fluctuating foreign exchange rates, foreign
    governmental regulations and differing degrees of liquidity that may affect
    portfolio securities. With respect to the Small Capitalization Equity
    Portfolio, investment in small companies presents greater risk than
    investment in larger, more established companies.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
 
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY:
 
We have audited the accompanying combined statement of assets and liabilities
and contract owners' equity (Passport Segregated Subaccounts) of the KILICO
Variable Annuity Separate Account as of December 31, 1995, and the related
combined statement of operations (Passport Segregated Subaccounts) for the year
then ended, and the combined statements of changes in contract owners' equity
(Passport Segregated Subaccounts) for the years ended December 31, 1995 and
1994. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position (Passport
Segregated Subaccounts) of the KILICO Variable Annuity Separate Account as of
December 31, 1995, and the combined results of its operations (Passport
Segregated Subaccounts) for the year then ended, and the combined changes in its
contract owners' equity (Passport Segregated Subaccounts) for the years ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

KILICO VARIABLE ANNUITY SEPARATE ACCOUNT
 
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(PASSPORT SEGREGATED SUBACCOUNTS)
 
(1) GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
ORGANIZATION
 
KILICO Variable Annuity Separate Account (the "Separate Account") is a unit
investment trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, established by Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company ("KILICO").
KILICO is owned by Kemper Corporation which was acquired by an investor group
led by Zurich Insurance Company ("Zurich") on January 4, 1996.
 
The Separate Account is used to fund contracts or certificates (collectively
referred to as "contracts") for PASSPORT individual and group variable and
market value adjusted deferred annuity contracts. The accompanying combined
financial statements represent the Passport Segregated Subaccounts of the
Separate Account. The Separate Account is divided into eight Subaccounts and
each Subaccount invests exclusively in a corresponding Portfolio of the Kemper
Investors Fund (the "Fund"), an open-end diversified management investment
company.
 
SECURITY VALUATION
 
The investments are stated at current value which is based on the closing bid
price, net asset value, at December 31, 1995.
 
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME
 
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy
or sell is executed). Dividends and capital gains distributions are recorded as
income on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses from security
transactions are reported on an identified cost basis.
 
ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUATION
 
On each day the New York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange") is open for trading,
the accumulation unit value is determined as of the earlier of 3:00 p.m.
(Chicago time) or the close of the Exchange by dividing the total value of each
Subaccount's investments and other assets, less liabilities, by the number of
accumulation units outstanding in the respective Subaccount.
 
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
 
The operations of the Separate Account are included in the Federal income tax
return of KILICO. Under existing Federal income tax law, investment income and
realized capital gains and losses of the Separate Account increase liabilities
under the contract and are, therefore, not taxed. Thus the Separate Account may
realize net investment income and capital gains and losses without Federal
income tax consequences.

</TABLE>
 
The underlying investments and significant industry concentrations of the Fund's
portfolios are summarized below.
 
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO:  This Portfolio invests primarily in short-term
obligations of major banks and corporations. The Money Market Subaccount #2
represents funds allocated by the owner of a contract to the dollar cost
averaging program. Under the dollar cost averaging program, an owner may
predesignate a portion of the Subaccount value to be automatically transferred
on a monthly basis to one or more of the other Subaccounts. At December 31,
1995, no industry exceeded 20% of the Portfolio's assets.
 
TOTAL RETURN PORTFOLIO: This Portfolio's investments will normally consist of
fixed-income and equity securities. Fixed-income securities will include bonds
and other debt securities and preferred stocks. Equity investments normally will
consist of common stocks and securities convertible into or exchangeable for
common stocks, however, the Portfolio may also make private placement
investments (which are normally restricted securities). At December 31, 1995,
the Portfolio had 21.9% of its assets invested in U.S. Government Obligations.
No other industry exceeded 20% of the Portfolio's assets.
 
HIGH YIELD PORTFOLIO: This Portfolio invests in fixed-income securities, a
substantial portion of which are high yielding fixed-income securities. These
securities ordinarily will be in the lower rating categories of recognized
rating agencies or will be non-rated, and generally will involve more risk than
securities in the higher rating categories. At December 31, 1995, the Portfolio
had 21.4% of its assets invested in the broadcasting, cable systems and
publishing industry. No other industry exceeded 20% of the Portfolio's assets.
 
EQUITY PORTFOLIO: This Portfolio's investments normally will consist of common
stocks and securities convertible into or exchangeable for common stocks,
however, it may also make private placement investments (which are normally
restricted securities). At December 31, 1995, no industry exceeded 20% of the
Portfolio's assets.
 
GOVERNMENT SECURITIES PORTFOLIO: This Portfolio invests primarily in U.S.
Government securities. The Portfolio will also invest in fixed-income securities
other than U.S. Government securities and will engage in options and financial
futures transactions. At December 31, 1995, the Portfolio had 84.2% of its
assets invested in U.S. Government obligations. No other industry exceeded 20%
of the Portfolio's assets.

(3) TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 
KILICO assumes mortality risks associated with the annuity contracts and incurs
all expenses involved in administering the contracts. In return, KILICO assesses
that portion of each Subaccount representing assets under the contracts with a
daily asset charge for mortality and expense risk and administrative costs which
amounts to an aggregate of one and one-quarter percent (1.25%) per annum. The
Money Market Subaccount #2, available for participation in the dollar cost
averaging program, has no daily asset charge deduction.
 
KILICO also assesses against each contract participating in one or more of the
Subaccounts a records maintenance charge of $30 at the end of each contract
year.
 
Proceeds payable on the redemption of units are reduced by the amount of any
applicable contingent deferred sales charge due to KILICO. During the year ended
December 31, 1995, KILICO received contingent deferred sales charges of
$558,015.
 
Kemper Financial Services, Inc. ("KFS"), an affiliated company, is the
investment manager of the Portfolios of the Fund which serve as the underlying
investments of the Separate Accounts. In connection with the acquisition of
Kemper Corporation on January 4, 1996, Zurich also acquired 100% of KFS.
 
(4) NET TRANSFERS (TO) FROM AFFILIATED DIVISIONS AND SUBACCOUNTS
 
Net transfers (to) from affiliated divisions or accounts include transfers of
all or part of the contract owner's interest to or from another Subaccount or to
the general account of KILICO.
 
(5) CONTRACT OWNERS' EQUITY
 
The contract owners' equity is affected by the investment results of each
Portfolio and contract charges. The accompanying financial statements include
only contract owners' payments pertaining to the variable portions of their
contracts and exclude any payments for the market value adjusted or fixed
portions, the latter being included in the general account of KILICO. Contract
owners may elect to annuitize the contract under one of several annuity options,
as specified in the prospectus.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
 
THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS
KEMPER INVESTORS FUND
 
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolios of investments, of the Money Market, Total Return, High Yield,
Equity, Government Securities, International and Small Capitalization Equity
Portfolios, comprising the Kemper Investors Fund as of December 31, 1995, the
related statement of operations for the year then ended and the statement of
changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended (except
for the Small Capitalization Equity Portfolio which is for the year ended
December 31, 1995 and the period May 2, 1994, commencement of operations,
through December 31, 1994), and the financial highlights for each of the fiscal
periods since 1991. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
December 31, 1995, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each
of the Portfolios of Kemper Investors Fund at December 31, 1995, the results of
their operations and the changes in their net assets for the fiscal periods
referred to above and the financial highlights for each of the fiscal periods
since 1991, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

KEMPER INVESTORS FUND
 
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) DESCRIPTION OF THE FUND
 
Kemper Investors Fund (the "Fund") is an open-end, diversified management
investment company organized as a business trust under the laws of
Massachusetts. The Fund offers multiple Portfolios, currently consisting of the
Money Market, Total Return, High Yield, Equity, Government Securities,
International and Small Capitalization Equity Portfolios. The Fund has an
unlimited number of authorized shares.
 
(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
INVESTMENT VALUATION.
 
Investments are stated at value.
 
The securities of the Total Return, High Yield, Equity, Government Securities,
International and Small Capitalization Equity Portfolios that are 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, at the last current bid
quotation. Portfolio 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 that 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. Fixed income
securities are valued by using market quotations, or independent pricing
services that use prices provided by market makers or estimates of market values
obtained from yield data relating to instruments or securities with similar
characteristics. 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 price, in which event prices provided by market
makers are used. Over-the-counter traded fixed income options are valued based
upon 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. Forward foreign currency contracts and
foreign currencies are valued at the forward and current exchange rates,
respectively, prevailing on the day of valuation. Other securities and assets
are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees.
 
The securities of the Money Market Portfolio are stated at amortized cost, which
approximates market value. In the event that a deviation of 1/2 of 1% or more
exists between the Portfolio's $1.00 per share net asset value, calculated at
amortized cost, and the net asset value calculated by reference to market
quotations, or if there is any other deviation that the Board of Trustees
believes would result in a material dilution to shareholders or purchasers, the
Board of Trustees will promptly consider what action, if any, should be
initiated.
 
CURRENCY TRANSLATION.
 
The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. Dollars. All assets and
liabilities initially expressed in foreign currency values are converted into
U.S. Dollars at the mean between the bid and offered quotations of such
currencies against the U.S. Dollar as last quoted by a recognized dealer. If
such quotations are not readily available, the rate of exchange is determined in
good faith by the Board of Trustees. Income and expenses and purchases and sales
of investments are translated into U.S. Dollars at the rate of exchange
prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Portfolios include
that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign
exchange rates with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments,
as appropriate.
 
                                       26
<PAGE>   27
 
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
 
INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME.
 
Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to
buy or sell is executed). Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date,
except that certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as
the information is available to the Fund. Interest income is recorded on the
accrual basis and includes premium and discount amortization on money market
instruments and mortgage-backed securities; it also includes original issue and
market discount amortization on long-term fixed income securities. Realized
gains and losses from investment transactions are reported on an identified cost
basis.
 
Several of the Portfolios may purchase securities with delivery or payment to
occur at a later date. At the time a Portfolio enters into a commitment to
purchase a security, the transaction is recorded and the value of the security
is reflected in the net asset value. The value of the security may vary with
market fluctuations. No interest accrues to the Portfolio until payment takes
place. At the time the Portfolio enters into this type of transaction it is
required to segregate cash or other liquid assets equal to the value of the
securities purchased. At December 31, 1995, the Government Securities Portfolio
had $15,661,000 of purchase commitments outstanding (16% of net assets) with a
corresponding amount of assets segregated.
 
EXPENSES.
 
Expenses arising in connection with a Portfolio are allocated to that Portfolio.
Other Fund expenses are allocated among the Portfolios in proportion to their
relative net assets.
 
FUND SHARE VALUATION.
 
Shares of each Portfolio of the Fund are offered on a continuous basis to the
separate accounts of participating insurance companies where permitted by law.
On each day the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading, each Portfolio
determines its net asset value per share (NAV) by dividing the total value of
the Portfolio's investments and other assets, less liabilities, by the number of
Portfolio shares outstanding. The NAV is determined as of the earlier of 3:00
p.m. Chicago time or the close of the Exchange for the Total Return, High Yield,
Equity, Government Securities, International and Small Capitalization Equity
Portfolios and at 11:00 a.m. and as of the earlier of 3:00 p.m. Chicago time or
the close of the Exchange for the Money Market Portfolio. 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 for the International Portfolio does
not take place contemporaneously with the determination of prices of the Fund's
foreign securities.
 
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES.
 
Each Portfolio has complied with the special provisions of the Internal Revenue
Code available to investment companies and therefore no federal income tax
provision is required. The accumulated net realized loss on sales of investments
for federal income tax purposes at December 31, 1995 amounted to approximately
$22,141,000 in the High Yield Portfolio and $3,904,000 in the Government
Securities Portfolio. These losses are available to offset future taxable gains
in the respective Portfolios and, if not applied, expire during the period 1998
through 2003.
 
DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS.
 
Dividends payable to shareholders are recorded by all Portfolios except the
Money Market Portfolio on the ex-dividend date. Net realized capital gains, if
any, reduced by capital loss carryovers, will be distributed at least annually.
The Money Market Portfolio declares a daily dividend equal to its net investment
income for that day, payable monthly.
 
Shareholders will receive dividends in additional shares.
 
                                       27
<PAGE>   28
 
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
 
Distributions to shareholders are determined in accordance with income tax
principles which may treat certain transactions differently from generally
accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing
treatments for certain transactions such as foreign currency transactions, if
applicable.
 
EQUALIZATION ACCOUNTING.
 
A portion of proceeds from sales and cost of redemptions of Fund shares in all
Portfolios except the Money Market Portfolio is credited or charged to
undistributed net investment income so that income per share available for
distribution is not affected by sales or redemptions of shares.
 
(3) TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 
The Fund has a management agreement with Kemper Financial Services, Inc. (KFS),
the Fund's investment manager. For management services and facilities furnished,
the Fund pays a fee, based on average daily net assets, at an annual rate of
 .50% for the Money Market Portfolio, .55% for the Total Return and Government
Securities Portfolios, .60% for the High Yield and Equity Portfolios, .65% for
the Small Capitalization Equity Portfolio and .75% for the International
Portfolio. For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Fund incurred management
fees of $9,064,000. Kemper Distributors, Inc., an affiliate of KFS, is the
distributor and principal underwriter for shares of the Fund.
 
Kemper Asset Holdings, Inc. (KAHI), a subsidiary of Kemper Corporation, the
parent company of KFS, arranged for the issuance of a $3,201,000 irrevocable
letter of credit from The Bank of New York for the benefit of the Fund. The
letter of credit supports the payment of principal and interest on the Orange
County, California obligation held in the Money Market Portfolio. The Fund and
KAHI are parties to an agreement related to the letter of credit which provides,
among other things, that, in connection with a payment of principal or interest
under the letter of credit, the Fund will transfer to KAHI any proceeds received
under the Orange County obligation.
 
Certain officers or trustees of the Fund are also officers or directors of KFS.
During the year ended December 31, 1995, the Fund made no direct payments to its
officers and incurred trustees' fees of $124,000 to independent trustees.

(6) FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
 
In order to protect itself against a decline in the value of particular foreign
currencies against the U.S. Dollar, the International Portfolio has entered into
forward contracts to deliver foreign currency in exchange for U.S. Dollars as
described below. The Portfolio bears the market risk that arises from changes in
foreign exchange rates, and accordingly, the net unrealized gain on these
contracts is reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The Portfolio
also bears the credit risk if the counterparty fails to perform under the
contract. At December 31, 1995, the Portfolio had the following forward foreign
currency contracts outstanding with settlement dates in March, 1996.

purposes) and carrying value are the same. Likewise, carrying value approximates
principal amount.

    31, 1995. The dates shown represent the demand date or next interest rate
    change date.

    illiquid securities was $3,000,000, which represented 4.9% of net assets.
